OMG them thinking that it's a freaking movie set?? And then Leo freaking just. Teleports. And is. Is Mikey's weapon... smiling at him..? OH CRUD ITS ALIVE??? WTF????

Meanwhile Draxum is just like "UHHHH???? WHO ARE THESE RANDOM HUMAN CHILDREN?? WHAT ARE THEY DOING IN MY LAB?? WHY DO THEY KEEP COMPLIMENTING MY 'COSTUME ARTIST' AND 'SET DESIGNER'???"

Though, it is implied that those weapons were made specifically for the turtles in canon

...

omg wait- wait- no hear me out- Leo is using a prop sword, but like earlier that day a bunch of jerks went viral on social media making fun of Donnie or something, so he's like really pissed off on his twin's behalf- familial protectiveness. And then there's this flash of blue light and the prop sword looks different then it did just a second ago?? Weird, did Donnie help with the props without telling him? It looks freaking sick though, so whatever. Hopefully it's not a big deal that he accidentally made it change

He does a test swing. He's suddenly staring through a glowy blue vortex at his twin's workspace?? And Donnie is staring right back at him in utter confusion and shock because "What the actual heck Nardo, what did you even do?? Did you just actually tear through the fabric of space and reality?? Without me??? "

When April and Cass meet the guys, imagine that they actually do go to kill them, but don't realize that these guys actually know like a lot of self defense and are like. Actually pretty dang good at it? So they don't just die and April and Cass are just like ".... well this is awkward-"

Fucking hell

New idea

What if- what if

Four human brothers found one turtle

Aka

What if april was the mutant turtle

And the brothers were humans-

Broo-

Broo-

Like-

Bro

Carol is the mad scientist who made april with draxum

Lmao

I can't I like this idea

Or it's a stupid idea and I'm very eleep deprived

Uhh

Idk what it would be called

April in a half shell AU?

[cupkatwarrior9]

They all act, but there's a ton of discourse about how Donnie "only gets roles because of his family" and "can't act at all", which he pretends doesn't bother him. He turns to inventing as a way to prove his worth to not only his family, but also the world

He also does fashion design, and throws a mini "tantrum" if Leo ever models for anyone else lol

Leo takes after his dad as a HUGE flirt, so the media sees him as the "dumb but pretty playboy" of the family. In movies, he's the pretty face. He'd actually love to try out playing a role other than "dashing hero" or "prince charming", but his dad is so proud of him, and the fans love him. He can't disappoint the fans, right?

Mikey is a painter, yes, but he's also a graffiti artist. The city hires him to do murals. He does posters for the family's movies. He cooks and bakes. He helps Raph craft the best, healthiest meals for his workout plans. The media always paints him as the golden child, the sweet baby of the family. He wanted to play a villain role once, but his agent threw a fit about "branding" and "fan expectations" when he brought it up, so he dropped it... for now, at least

Raph, when not acting as a stuntman, always plays a bad guy. He hates it, honestly, because that means his "branding" is always the big, mean, tough bad guy. And it's always the big, dumb, and muscley stereotype. He also does professional boxing

Carol finds out that Draxum is going to use April to eradicate humanity, and they get in a fight. Carol ends up leaving with April and going to the surface. She runs into the foot, and they offer their protection/aid in hiding from Draxum in exchange for training April to be a Foot Soldier (maybe a special one meant to wear the Dark Armor?)

Cassandra absolutely takes April under her wing, while Carol is busy with doing work for the clan. They train together constantly

Alternatively, April is still with Draxum, and essentially these 4 superstars just. Wander into the Hidden City on accident lol. They have no clue where tf they are, or how they got here. This is even more hilarious if this occurs when they're like, toddlers, and the boys and April have known each other since they were little in this au, like they have in canon

Fucking hell

Okay wait hear me out. The boys are Lou Jitsu's kids- Lou Jitsu, who never disappeared from the spotlight. Lou Jitsu, who is still a famous movie star

At some point they're like going to the store or something and paparazzi stops Lou Jitsu, so the boys sneak off because boring and loud and peopley :/

They come across April, who snuck out to just explore or something

Meanwhile,

Journalist: "Lou Jitsu sir, were those kids that were walking with you yours??"

Lou Jitsu: "Oh- uh haha, well- wait wtf do you mean 'were'?? "

Fucking hell

Tell me someone remembers this TV special.

Cuz I think it’s hilarious that they gave Donnie a T-Rex.

[Inspo BTC]

[cupkatwarrior9]

PAHHAHAHAHA- OMG-

This was definitely not what I expected when I saw this notification lol-

Jack Black for TMNT 2026 💪

WHY ARE WE BRINGING THIS BACK UP AGAIN. YOU AND VY TRAUMATIZED ME I HATE IT HERE

[cupkatwarrior9]

what it says on the tin! I offered to throw together something on drawing raw meat (in a mouthwashing server, naturally) so here it is in case someone finds it useful

[cupkatwarrior9]

Okay I JUST realized I never posted these on here—- BUT BASICALLY, about a year and a half ago I started doing these experimental black hairstyle posts that were threads long on Twitter, to give artists a source of inspo for their black ocs whose hair they wanted to try something new with! There’s more to black hair than just the selected styles portrayed in media, and I thought it would be fun to show people how much texture, shape, fades, length, and style can be combined when drawing black hair—-cause it’s a kind of manipulation our hair can do irl! The OG posts were lost with the hacking of my original Twitter account (@/bagels_donuts) but I’ve since reuploaded the whole thread to my new Twitter (@/ItsDonutsFR)! I hope artists on tumblr find these useful, sorry it took me so long to post them here😭🙏🏾 I’ll upload them all in parts!

Part 1: Long masc hairstyles + playing with fades

[cupkatwarrior9]

A bit messy, but here you go-!

How the TMNT boys will look after I chuck their shells over the fence of the turtle sanctuary:

[cupkatwarrior9]

I found this reference on Pinterest at some point (and calculated the heights in imperial units from the metric units-)

Idk how accurate it is or where it actually comes from, but 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•>•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ

Guys please tell me how big mikey is-

Cause raph is clearly twice his size-

Bro looks like he is 8 feet tall and wide

[cupkatwarrior9]

Uh- I'm chill lol-

(character is Taylor from School Bus Graveyard on Webtoon!)

You're stuck in a room with the last character in your gallery how safe are you

the worst thing that could happen is him being clumsy, so I think I'm alright (unless monsters find him I guess)

tagging (no pressure): @flaretheidiot @lemonic-whimssyy @wibbly-wobbly-blog @cryptidanathema @virtualunease @aurlworthfightingfor @angrysheep @sugarplumanderson @time-travelling-chaos @fateisnotafactor @monstrousmaws @sinfulauthor @idkaguyorsomething @vampireopossum and anyone who wants to do this!

[cupkatwarrior9]

[I did a thing.]

O. M. G.

This is so cool Koda-! it's so detailed omg!

Also, the choice of quote/words is really powerful- and so freaking true-

[cupkatwarrior9]

I made the Aqua-wolf pup.

The young are born a sandy color to help them blend into the beach. Females start to green and males start to turn blue at about a year and a half of age. Their stripes also start to turn more red at this time.

Awww cute! They're adorable :D

The camouflage is smart, too! It's like oxidizing copper! :D

No this hasn't been sitting in my inbox for *checks calendar* aaallllmossst half a month... dang-

[cupkatwarrior9]

OMG CNSBBFBD-

This is amazing omg-

Rock Dogs 🪨

No context needed. Though this is making think of a new head cannon where leo likes to paint rocks for fun and keeps them on a shelf in his room.

[cupkatwarrior9]

I desperately need someone to make a comic of future Leo like. Handing Flintatello and Rockphael to CJ along with the photo. Casey puts his Sensei's "brothers" into his bag. And at some point after the invasion is over, he finds them in his bag like "oh yeah! I forgot about them!" And the turtles are just like "..... what-"

Meanwhile Mikey is just giving Leo the most judgemental look, and Leo is trying desperately to feign innocence. This is how it went in the future when F!Leo was making the rock bros as well btw. Mikey was very not amused. Leo is just in tears while trying to glue on Rockphael's eye with one arm, and Mikey cannot believe what he is witnessing

".... we did it for you..?" 😭

Poor boys- they're doing their best xd

{Raph's tail still twitches and sways from time to time. He watches Mikey, keeping him close.}

Thanks for being patient with me, big man.

I know this is a lot.

(@red-angel-of-prevent1ng-harm @rise-bishop @wilderleo?)

[Anyway, new thread because the original one was getting ridiculously long.]

Mikey just nods, holding Moon closer to him. He stays on Raph's side.

They have to bite the bullet. Bishop won't compromise more, so they have to work it out.
