here have a wip of a rat sons comic that i keep tearing up about while writing
(feat. tortoise papa splinter and his rat baby leonardo)
#my art#wip#rat sons#tmnt#tmnt au#03 tmnt#03 tmnt au#yall imma cry#rat sons splinter is a really really good dad#like 03 splinter before him#and i WILL randomly burst into tears about it#like hes not perfect#sometimes he talks through so many layers of metaphors only mikey sort of understands wtf hes getting at#and his refusal to be direct or have favoritism/take sides in arguement can really get old fast#esp for raph and don#who both just want to be told that theyre Right sometimes without leaping through hoops of flowery language#but like#hes such a gentle and goofy papa#he nurtures all his babies interests as much as he can#with fucking endless support and love#and his sons are his absolute number one priority full stop#they never once need to question if he'll be there for them#hes gonna have a bit of a hard time when they get older and start living their own lives beyond him#but hes gonna bury that as much as he can under how amazed and heckin proud he is#of the people his children have grown up to be#ugh im emotional#now there must be an obligatory arc in which he is Taken Away
