Also someone on tiktok had the wonderful idea that don would have maladaptive daydreaming- then I added on 2 that sayin that d would explain his daydreams and Mikey would draw what he explains!!

Michelangelo is super under appreciated and here’s why (tmnt comic spoilers ahead)

It drives me nuts when people boil Mikey down to “the dumb one” or “the silly one” (I’m looking at you 2012) because he is not just a one-dimensional character. He has many layers.

Mikey is such an important part of the team because of his compassion and empathy. He has a deep emotional connection with his loved ones, and seeks to connect even with their foes in hoping to stop the fighting. I would go as far to say he is more emotionally intelligent than his brothers, and every decision he makes is guided by his heart, which is a driving point of his character.

Here’s a few examples of things he’s done that reflect this point:

Becomes friends with Woody, who works at a pizza place and is able to bring them pizzas

Trying to defuse the fight with Slash when the turtles first met him, and later when he finds out Slash is part of the mutanimals gives him candy and befriends him.

Leaves Splinter when he decides to lead the foot clan because Mikey knows it will only lead to more violence. His brothers try to convince him to come back, but after Splinter tells Jenny to kill someone they realize Mikey was right and leave Splinter as well.

Holding a Christmas party to raise the spirits of his brothers after they left Splinter

Becoming friends with all of the mutanimals, even though he disagrees with Hob and the things he does

And that’s only a couple examples. The point is that Michelangelo deserves more appreciation. It probably saddens him that he isn’t able to live normally among humans, but it never stops him from making a friend around every corner.

Which is why every time I think of Mikey I always think of the quote “He wishes only to love…and to be loved.” And honestly? He deserves to.
