Okay, so... Reverse Falls is an obsession, I honestly like it more than the original Gravity Falls. I also haven't written something for Ninjago in forever. Solution? Write a crossover one-shot. Featuring Morroyd. Because Willdip and Morroyd are honestly really similar. Enjoy!


Lloyd sighed as he tugged on the collar around his neck, grimacing as his enchanted eye flared up at the feel of confinement. He traced his hand around the remains of his summoning symbol, melted wax from the candles stuck to the dirty stone floor. He tilted his head upwards, closing his eyes and internally cursing himself for letting his guard down when making the deal.

"Cipher." A male voice snapped. Lloyd snapped to, looking up at the blue-cloaked teen standing above him. A navy streak was dyed in the front of his long, black bangs and a shadowy cloak settled around his ankles. His clothes were those of a magician's, rolled up sleeves and a fancy vest with dress pants. His aura was like that of a prince's, or a master's. Lloyd's master.

One hand seized his chain, a brown-haired girl with blue eyes yanking him upwards sharply. She frowned disapprovingly, adjusting her skirt before dropping the chain in her brother's hand. "You take him, Morro. I have a date with Kai, hopefully I can get Journal Three this time."

So they're after the last journal. Lloyd thought. He could help with that and potentially earn either their kindness or perhaps his freedom. It had been three months as their slave, and he was tired of the constant abuse and neglect.

"I can help you with that." The blond boy said, his voice quiet and cracking from how little he spoke.

Morro angled one eyebrow, meeting his gaze. "We got the two other journals easy enough, what makes you think you can help?"

"It seems you're having trouble now." He instantly regretted his words when Bansha slapped him across the side of his face, feeling pain flare up as his eyepatch was almost knocked off.

The other boy's expression was sour as he thought, finally sighing as he reached a decision. "Alright, if a dream demon can't help, I don't know what will. But—" He walked forward, tilting up Lloyd's chin with a frown tilting his lips. "If you fail us, Cipher…" He pulled a small knife out of his glove, running the blade along Lloyd's cheek as he watched the blood flare up. "You will pay, in much more than money."

"Alright, but, if I do get the last journal?" Lloyd questioned, gritting his teeth against the stinging pain in his cheek.

Morro smirked. "Then you'll be rewarded quite handsomely."

Lloyd extended his hand and the two shook on it, a golden fire running along their interlocked hands. The deal was done.


Lloyd's hand shook as he knocked on the door of the Pines family. Nya opened the door, smiling as she pulled him into hug. "It's great to see you!"

"Hi Nya." He replied, trying to relax his body as his eyes closed. She frowned and held him out at arm's length, taking in the new bruises on his face and the streaks of mud, dirt and dust. She opened her mouth to ask something, but was interrupted by her brother calling out to her.

Kai walked down the stairs, adjusting his pine tree hat. "Who is it, Nya?"

"It's L. Cipher, silly! Don't you recognize his voice?"

Lloyd shifted on the spot a bit. He was self-conscious about his slightly robotic voice, knowing it didn't sound natural compared to most people's.

Kai's gaze shifted to the blue-cloaked dream demon, who adjusted the sleeves of his sweater and re-centered his flower crown, shyly avoiding the questioning gaze of the adventurous boy. "You look like something's bothering you."

Lloyd nodded, shifting his demeanor to seem a bit more panicked. "I need to see Journal Three. Something weird's going on, and there's nothing about it in the other two journals."

"Weird?"

"The dimensions are shifting, which could mean-" It almost physically hurt him to tell so many lies. "The end of Reverse Falls… Weirdmaggedon."

"Journal Three says that will never happen, though!" Nya protested.

"It was written so long ago… almost forty years ago… things are changing."

The Mystery Twins nodded, motioning for him to follow them as they raced up the stairs of the shack. Lloyd followed, steeling himself inside as he gathered magic in one hand. Kai pulled out Journal Three, flipping to the right page and motioning for Lloyd to come look. Lloyd clenched his hand into a fist, walking forward and then spreading his magic as soon as he was between them. Magic flames raced across the twin's bodies, the two collapsing and their eyes fluttering shut.

"I'm sorry…" Lloyd whispered before picking the journal up off of the floor and jumping out the window, landing lightly and racing towards the looming, navy Tent of Telepathy in the distance.


Lloyd lowered his head as he walked through the entrance to Morro's office, clutching the journal tightly before silently extending it towards the black-haired teen. Morro looked up, adjusting his black glasses and taking it from Lloyd's hands, looking over it and flipping through the pages. He stopped at the pages, looking through it before returning his gaze to Lloyd. "I could banish you whenever I wanted with this, turn you to stone."

The blond nodded silently, his hands hanging limply at his sides.

"You would trust me with that?"

Another nod.

Morro's lips curved into a smirk as he stood up, setting the open journal on his desk as he walked forward towards Lloyd. He placed one hand on Lloyd's chest, pressing him back against the wall. The dream demon's eyes widened as he looked up at Morro, feeling one hand slip into his hair before he felt Morro's soft lips on his.

His eyes fluttered shut, not daring to place his hands on his master, fearing that he would mess something up. When Morro pulled away, Lloyd dared not speak.

"I'm not going to hurt you."

That had to be a lie. Morro had always hurt him. Enslaved him.

"You did well."

Wait? Praise?

"T-thank you, Master Gleeful." Lloyd whispered, turning his head to the side slightly as he felt his cheeks heat up.

There was the sound of heels clicking on the floor and a disgusted scoff from Bansha, who stood in the doorframe with her arms crossed. You could see in one hand a small brandy bottle, half-empty. "I won't question what you do with your servants, brother, but do we have the journal?"

"We do." Morro said, watching the smirk appear on Bansha's black-coated lips. He crossed over to his desk, holding up the journal in one hand and lazily flipping through the pages. She walked away, going to alert Garmadon.

After she had left, Morro motioned Lloyd forward. He walked forward nervously, still standing by the wall as he watched Morro pull out a set of keys. The teen unlocked the collar around Lloyd's collar, giving him the opportunity to run if he wished.

Lloyd met Morro's gaze, biting his lip. "I'm staying."

"Good." Morro pulled him in for a slow kiss, biting Lloyd's lower lip as the dream demon surrendered, tentatively wrapping one arm around Morro's shoulders. He felt Morro's hand sweeping along the curve of his leg, lifting his leg so that it was wrapped around Morro's waist. Lloyd felt Morro's tongue sweeping his lips, opening his mouth slightly as their fingers interlaced, holding on to the other boy tightly.

They stayed like that for… an hour? Fifteen minutes? A week? Time seemed indefinite until they finally separated, Morro running one hand through Lloyd's hair.

"Ready for our reign, Lloyd Cipher?"

Lloyd dipped his head, a slight smile finally gracing his pink lips. "Let Weirdmageddon begin."
