I don’t think I’ll do any other auary prompts, but this one seemed good for a chapter I have written for an au where the Rise boys go through the fear fungus from the 2012 series!

Crisis

Mikey was on his plastron, laying on the floor. He had a paper in front of him and different colored pencils splayed around. He kicks his feet up and down as he draws. It had been too long since his last one. It felt good to stretch out his artistic muscles. He can’t really remember why he it took him so long to do this. He keeps his attention to the paper as one of his brothers walks in.

“Mikey.”

“Hey Donnie, what’s up?”

He continues drawing, not looking up at him just yet.

“Mikey!”

He jumps in surprise at his yelling and Donnie finally gets his attention.

They’re no longer in his room.

They’re in the turtle tank.

Emergency lights are flashing and metallic screeching fills his ears.

He remembers what this is.

“No! How did we get back here!?”

“Mikey! Pay attention! We have to find a way out!”

Donnie grips Mikey’s shoulders.

Mikey shakes. He knows there isn’t one. There wasn’t back then. There wouldn’t be now.

“D-Donnie, there’s-“

The walls start getting crushed around them.

Donnie throws himself over Mikey, holding him tight. Mikey closes his eyes, waiting for it all to go away, for it to be okay.

When he opens his eyes again, he’s outside the tank. He sighs in relief until he sees Leo kneeling down next to Donnie while Casey stands over them.

This didn’t happen before.

Mikey rushes over and sees that Leo is trying to perform CPR. He’s crying as Casey stares down in shock.

“Donnie!! No! No! Please! Wake up! You can’t do this to me!” Leo sobs as he keeps trying.

Even Mikey with his lack of medical knowledge knows that Donnie wasn’t going to wake up. He was….his body….it…was broken. Shattered. Squished. He wants to throw up. He wants to scream. He wants to cry.

For some reason he can’t do any of that.

Casey puts a hand on Leo’s shoulder, causing him to stop. Mikey can see the emotions flashing in his eyes. It’s changed from desperation to devastation to…something scary. Leo stands up and looks at Mikey.

“He just had to get stuck with you.”

“Wh-What….?”

Leo takes a step towards him.

“If it had been anyone else, they could have actually done something! They wouldn’t have been a scared little baby hiding in their shell!”

Mikey’s breathing gets choppy.

“No! Th-There was nothing I could-!”

“You always have to be the one getting protected! He would have made it if he wasn’t saving you!”

Mikey steps back.

“I-I’m sorry-“

“You’re sorry!? Now you’re sorry!? You never care about how much we have to worry about you! You’re nothing but a burden! And now you got Donnie killed!”

Mikey grips his head in grief and terror, finally screaming and sobbing.

He sits up in bed, still doing the same. He can’t stop shaking. His breathing is out of control.

He hears frenzied, hurried, loud stomps coming towards his train car. Raph slams his train car door open.

“Mikey! What’s wrong!?”

Mikey can’t help but keep sobbing, he’s in no condition to even try to answer.

Raph opens up his arms, allowing Mikey the option to hug but not going in for one right away in case it would only make it worse. Mikey basically jumps into his arms and clings to him. Raph hugs him tight, rubbing his shell comfortingly.

“Raph is here Mikey. Don’t worry.”

Mikey nearly chokes he gasps so fast.

“D-Donnie.”

Raph starts to understand and cradles Mikey close. He walks him over to one of the other train cars and gingerly walks in. Mikey can see that Leo and Donnie are sleeping next to each other in Raph’s bed. Mikey nearly falls out of Raph’s arms trying to get to him.

“Hey, be careful big man, calm down a second.” Raph whispers.

Raph gently places Mikey between the twins. Mikey sniffles and nuzzles his head into the crook of Donnie’s neck. It was easy to feel his pulse and hear him breathe this way.

Leo and Donnie both drape their arms over Mikey in their sleep. Mikey sighs slightly, calming down now that he knows for sure Donnie is safe and Leo doesn’t hate him.

Even subconsciously they care.

Raph crawls into bed and wraps himself around everyone, pulling them even closer.

“W-Wait….if everyone was asleep here….h-how did you hear me when they couldn’t?” Mikey asks quietly.

Raph glances away.

“….Raph….are you moving people in their sleep again? Were you coming to take me too?”

Raph taps his fingers together.

Mikey can’t help but smile tiredly. He may not be sure that his brothers will never be in danger again, but they’d never hate him like he saw in that dream.

“We’ll talk about that in the morning.” He closes his eyes.

He hears Raph sigh in relief. They’re all squished together a little more and Mikey couldn’t be happier about it. He falls asleep quickly.

In the morning, Mikey wakes up to Donnie playing games on his Switch. It seemed like all he could do since he was still very largely trapped by Raph and partially by Mikey himself.

“Can I watch?”

“I can’t stop you in the slightest.”

Mikey smiles and looks down at the screen.

Donnie tilts the switch slightly so Mikey can see better.

They stay like that for a while in silence.

“Hey….Donnie?”

“Yes, ‘Angelo?”

“I….I’m sorry.”

Donnie pauses for a moment then continues playing.

“For helping trap me in this bed?”

“That you had to protect me so much during all the Kraang stuff.”

Donnie pauses the game this time.

“Excuse me, had to? Are you assuming I was forced to?”

“I couldn’t get my portal powers working-“

“They were sealed off and when you got them back you threw an entire building at the krang. Not to mention you ripped through space and time to get Leo back. I believe it makes up any transgressions you believe happened.”

Mikey smiles.

“Thanks, Donnie.”

“You’re welcome. Now help me decorate my island.”

Mikey continues watching him play until Leo wakes up.

He yawns and stretches as much as he can.

“Mmmm….did Raph kidnap us from our beds again?”

“That would seem to be the case, yes.” Donnie answers.

“Not me….I had a nightmare.”

Leo and Donnie both look at him.

“What? A nightmare? I thought you were getting less of those now.”

“I thought I was too….but it was just one Leo. I’m okay.”

“Are you sure? Do you want me to sleep in your room tonight?”

Mikey thinks for a moment.

“Yeah. That might help.”

Leo smiles and pats his head.

“Another sleepover it is.”

Mikey was pretty sure he was being babied right now, but after your entire family is almost killed twice you sort of get over it.

Besides, it helped everyone else to let them do it. Especially Leo. He was the one who wouldn’t let Mikey out of his sight the most.

Leo looks over at Raph next and pushes his face.

“Time to get up bro.”

Raph grumbles and finally releases everyone as he wakes up.

The rest of them are able to sit up now.

“I’m going to make breakfast-“

“Incorrect. I believe today father is making breakfast. No straining your arms yet.”

Mikey sighs.

He almost forgot about it.

“Okay Donnie. I won’t touch a single spatula, I promise.”

“Excellent.”

He and Mikey leave the bed.

Leo tries to follow but almost falls off it.

Several hands reach out to catch him, but Raph is the one who does.

“Alright, get up here.”

Leo let’s Raph pick him up.

“Vamonos! To the kitchen!”

He points.

Raph chuckles and carries him out.

Mikey and Donnie follow them.

They all eat breakfast together and the rest of the day makes the nightmare start to fade from Mikey’s memory. He was never alone the whole time, even being joined for his physical therapy time.

They all needed it anyways.

Still, the night came a little too soon for his liking. It brought the feelings back to his mind. He really didn’t want another nightmare like the last one. Not something so real.

He’s taken out of those thoughts as Leo leans his arm on his shoulder.

“Ready to get a good night’s sleep?”

Mikey smiles softly.

“You know it!”

He helps Leo to his room and into his hammock. It takes some time to join him because of balancing issues, but once he finally flops onto it, they laugh at the struggle of it all.

The two of them talk about everything and nothing. How Mikey’s been feeling, how Splinter left egg shells in the breakfast this morning, what the plans are for tomorrow.

As Leo chatters on, Mikey’s eyes droop. Leo softly rubs circles into his little brother’s shell, enticing him more into sleep.

His eyes fully close and he drifts off to sleep.

He wasn’t even granted a peaceful start this time.

Black tendrils dig into his skin and crawl up around his face. He tries to avoid looking at the weird mass of teeth next to him.

“Gross, gross gross gross, Donnie-!” His face drops the moment he looks at the state he’s in.

The tendrils have spread far and Donnie’s head was drooped down. His eyes were gray and lifeless. There was no movement coming from him in the slightest.

Mikey panics and look towards where Leo and Raph had been fighting.

Leo was in a similar state to Donnie but for a different reason. He was pierced clean through the plastron with Raph’s Kraangified arm.

Raph had Leo’s weapon imbedded into his chest.

Mikey screams out as he’s enveloped by the tendrils.

He shoots straight up and breathes heavily.

His eyes quickly move to the occupied side of the hammock.

Leo is breathing steadily, curled up close to him. Mikey smiles softly and lays back down, presses his cheek against his brother’s. His eyes close for a second just to take in the fact that he’s still around. The moment that he realizes something is wrong when he feels his skin become wet.

Opening his eyes, it’s obvious that Leo is crying in his sleep. There’s a slight shaking coming from him too. Mikey immediately starts shaking him awake.

“Leo, wake up!”

He opens his eyes that dart around the room before finally landing on Mikey.

“It’s okay, you’re safe.” He takes his hand and squeezes it.

Leo breathes shakily and stares hard until he glances behind him. That’s when he grabs Mikey and tosses both of them off the hammock. He lands on the floor on his shell, shouting in pain slightly from his previous injuries.

“Leo!“

“W-We have get out of here, now!” His hand scrambles for something.

“It wasn’t real! We’re both okay!”

“No, you don’t get it! Something’s wrong! And I’m not letting it hurt you!” He grabs a ruler that was on the ground and turns it into his sword.

“Leo! You can’t! You promised!”

“You’re more important!” He opens a portal and sends them through.

They wind up in Donnie’s lab, scaring the crap out of the soft shell who was already heavily on guard since he wasn’t supposed to be staying up this late.

“Nardo!? You said you wouldn’t use a portal again until we all agreed you could!”

“I-I had to! Take Mikey, there’s something in his room!” Leo moves him away and tries to open another portal.

Donnie lunges forward and takes the sword from him.

“Mikey, what’s happening!?”

“I don’t know! We both had nightmares and now he’s freaking out!”

“Give it back! We can’t leave that thing in there!” Leo tries to stand and grab at the sword.

“I’ll take care of it! Just no more portals!” Donnie holds it away.

“No! I can’t let you!” He reaches up more but immediately stops at the sharp pain coming from his shell.

Leo falls over back onto the floor. Having used up too much energy and worsened old injuries, he was out cold again.

The sword in Donnie’s hand turns back into a ruler that he tosses aside in favor of picking Leo up.

“Let’s get him to med bay.”

They rush to the train car holding all the supplies they had basically emptied not too long ago.

Both of them hated the fact that Leo was back in it again so soon. Despite every insistence from him, they knew he had probably developed a fear of the type of room he used to love.

Donnie lays him in the bed and sets up a monitor for his vitals. They seemed steady at the moment so he just makes sure that all his injuries are taken care of.

“Is….is he going to be okay….?” Mikey frowns as he gets closer to the bed.

“Of course. This is nothing. This is fixable. As long as he…doesn’t go anywhere we can’t….I can fix it.” He grips the metal bed railing tightly.

“I’m going to go wake up Raph and tell him what happened.” He turns to leave.

“Wait!”

Mikey stop and looks at him.

“Take my battle shell with you, just in case.” He takes it off, holds it out to him.

Mikey’s heart starts beating fast at thinking about his first nightmare.

“It’s okay, I’ll be fine!”

“I wasn’t asking.” He shoves it into his arms with an extremely stern look.

“O-Oh….okay. I’ll be right back.”

Donnie nods and goes back to keeping an eye on Leo.

Mikey leaves, gripping the shell tightly as he rushes to Raph’s train car. He finds him wrapped around the teddy bears he had made to look like them.

It was a big relief that they had survived when Shredder ruined their first home and when the Kraang got into their current one.

“Raph! Raaaaaph!! Wake up!”

He groggily opens his eyes and sits up, holding the bears still as he yawns.

“Mmmm….oh, Mikey, another nightmare? C’mere.” He holds the bears with one hand and reaches for him with the other.

“No! Yes, but that’s not what’s happening! Leo thought he saw something in my room-“

“There’s something in your room!? Raph’s got it!” He drops the bears and runs to Mikey’s room.

He quickly runs after him.

“No! Raph! Stop it!”

They eventually both reach the room where Raph starts looking all over.

“Whatever you are, come out! Leave my brothers alone!”

“Raph! You didn’t hear me right! There’s nothing-!”

“Found it!”

“What….?” He looks up at where Raph’s line of sight is.

In the corner of the train car, there’s a blue, glowing creature with small tendrils coming out of it.

Comic dubbers

What do you use to edit the comic together as well as add audio?

I was using CapCut but because of how money hungry it is, I can barely do anything, it makes it look bad and cheap.

I’m trying to use alight motion but this feels impossible to figure out.

So if you guys a have any other apps you would recommend PLEASE TELL MEEEE!!!!!!

ESCAPISM

He remembers what it felt like to open that portal, well, besides the pain. It was as if a floodgate had opened. He felt like he was drowning in the energy. Of course, the portal took a lot out of him. But after a few weeks of recovery, he could feel the raging ocean of power in his chest once more. Nowadays, he would compare it more to a puddle in a desert. Draxum’s only conclusion was that he just needed more practice. That his portal came so naturally because he was in a life-or-death situation, and his mystics responded to his severe distress accordingly. Mikey didn’t have the heart to tell anyone that maybe Casey was wrong about him. Maybe because they changed the timeline… he didn’t need his powers anymore. Maybe they would continue to drain until there was nothing left… Maybe his ninpō would follow. He never voiced these concerns, obviously. His family had a lot more pressing matters than his stupid magic tricks not working.

Here it is! The first chapter to my post-rottmnt movie fic! I'm going to be updating weekly on Saturdays.

Wasn’t Baron still in the hallway when the kids got kidnapped at the school? Do you think he saw or heard something? Bc I just had a thought of like a Baron redemption arc where he ran in when he heard them shouting and trying to help. Then getting taken with everyone else and subsequently being out of the loop and highly confused.

Baron: “Holy shit, we just got kidnapped by the government.”

Tyler: “Yeah… so, why don’t you touch the guy chained to the wall.”

Aiden (pushing Baron forward): “I second that decision.”

Maverick: “Well someone’s gotta touch it.”

Barron: “WHAT!”

Taylor: I like your new pants!

Logan: Thanks, they were 50% off!

Taylor, winking: I’d like them better if they were 100% off~

Logan: The store can’t just give away clothes for free.

Taylor: That’s… not what I meant.

Logan: That’s a terrible way to run a business, Taylor.

pidge headcanon: period

these headcanons will have four parts ( in that same post) : garison, Castle of lions, road to earth and post-season 8.

'tw: this headcanon contains kidge. don't like it, don't read it! (lightly contains Kidge, I tried to make it more about Pidgey)

A/N: I decided to not talk about the symptoms that she might have during her period and to talk about things that happened while she had her period. (and how she handled it into space)

Garrison:

When Pidge pretending to be a guy at the garrison, She obviously had her bag full of pads because duh.

Her roommates was obviously a guy and one day, her bag fell in the ground and a few pads came out of her bag. He asked her about it but she said that it was her "girlfriend's" pads. He was sceptical but didn't ask more questions.

Hunk found the pads too when he was searching for chocolate in her bag and she said the same. (that's why when Hunk found the pic of Pidge and Matt, he thought it was a pic of her "girlfriend".)

at some point, she was out of pads. Her only way to get some was to sneak in the infirmary to steal some but unfortunately, she got caught by a nurse.

nurse: What are you doing here? Pidge: HUUUUH...I... My girlfriend told be that she needed pads!.. She asked me to get her some here but I didn't see you, so... nurse: awww, what a sweet boy, there, pads for your girlfriend. pidge: pidge: Can I have painkillers too?

The nurse gave her painkillers too.

Sometimes, Pidge would have a quick cramp while she is walking with Hunk and Lance and would randomly curl up on theh ground. Hunk would end up carrying her and telling her that she needs to go to the infirmary. She would always REFUSE.

She woke up with her sheets stained with blood. Her roommate saw it. well.

She told him the truth and he helped her to get some clean sheets.

He kept her secret.

Castle of lions:

When she arrived at the castle of lion and finally got in her room, it came to her mind: HOW IS SHE GOING TO GET PADS?!

SHE HAD LEFT HER PADS IN HER ROOM AT THE GARRISON BECAUSE NOW THAT HER ROOMMATE KNEW, SHE COULD JUST LET HER PADS IN THE ROOM.

SHE ONLY HAD THREE PADS IN HER BAG? HELP.

She figured that she'd have to use toilet paper. *sigh*

When she finally told that she was a girl to her team, she then had a talk with Allura to know if she had pads... But:

Pidge: Allura... I need to ask you something... Allura: Yes? Pidge: I had a question about period... How were girls dealing with it on Altea. Allura: Period? pidge: Wait-

Pidge explained to Allura what periods were. Allura shivered: "How could you lose blood from your... EW. Humans are so strange..."

Allura asked a thousand questions.

they both tried to find an alternative to pads or tampons...

they found something, better than pads. It was something spongeous that was making disappear any liquid. It was discreet and it wasn't uncomfortable... She will never use pads again, space sponges are WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better.

training during periods... NAHHH.

shiro: Ok guys, let's get started with the training. Pidge: Shiro, *whisper something to Shiro*. Shiro: Ho. Well, you can go rest. Lance, Hunk and Keith: WHY-

Shiro explained to them.

the guys instantly became sweeter with Pidge .

Hunk baked her peanut butter cookies.

Lance would bring her stuffs to help her ease her pain

And keith would carry her to her room whenever she is in pain.

during the fights, the adrenalin made her forget the pain.

She tried the healing pods to see if it would change anything. Naha, didn't work.

Pidge snaped at Lance a few times for multiple reasons.

Or she would snap at her computer.........

Road to earth: (short)

No problem in the lion exceptthe fact that she would snap at people easily.

When they were lost and floating into space, Pidge would silently worry about her period. She wont be able to change or anything.

post-season 8:

Keith was now her boyfriend and, whenever he would come back to earh and she would be on her period, he would be the best boyfriend:

cuddles to forget about the pain.

He found a specific way to make the pain go away: by gently caressing the lower part of her tum with the tip of his fingers.

she would snap at him easily but he would try to not mind.

she would also become a cuddly one... Depends on the day.

Keith panics whenever she tells him that her period is late.

Well, that was shorter than I imagined... I still hope you liked it!
