well it looks like bootleg's officially an au now LMAO

WOMAN BISHOP?!?!

[ophelliate]

small bootleg!tmnt details/fun facts

from what i've seen nobody ever pointed them out so i thought it'd be nice to share ^^ spoilers ahead ofc

in 'who needs a vet', the stockman's remedy is actually a large contributor to the boys' recovery as the recipe was developed by superfly to aid his family/mutants

the intervention gag in 'sports! any%' and 'leon ardo alone' is inspired by the same gag in How I Met Your Mother

in 'pizza-nal economics', the only reason why leroy hired mikey (and by extension, keno) is because he knew he could fight/defend himself from the customers of their business

according to the boys' pizza tier list, Run of the Mill is an A tier

Raph-Bucks were inspired by the unicon bits from the las pegasus unicon incident

the episode's ending with mikey walking in to the raph-buck revolution is also inspired by the community pizza fire meme

as mentioned by casey in 'i thought YOU were sneaking out', raph had technically met them during his sports speedrun, as they were the goalie raph hit in the shin

bishop is actually teased as early as the episode 'fiend trip' by the principal

melissa is very heavily inspired by old friends of mine which is why she's Like That lmao

i mutated the general into scale tail for the sake of using the concept design before the mutant mayhem script released and revealed that his name is actually spider... oops–

lotus's background wasn't actually planned and was made during her introduction in 'leon ardo alone', the reason being is because i didn't want to actually make her last name blossom

the reason why klunk duplicates is due to the sea sponge dna she mutated with, as some sea sponges can create extensions of themselves if they feel like they are in danger

by extension, when klunk is scared, she hardens for defense, but when she's happy/relaxed, her entire body softens, including her organs

the person bishop is calling throughout 'green party candidates' and briefly in 'the devolution of turtle' is irma's mother, mrs. lynette knight, though they are close enough for first name basis

as explained in 'no paint no gain', keno is well liked by/has easy entry to the crime scene of nyc due to his cousin being in the foot clan

although not explored in season 1, angel has a heavy interest in film and has implemented tv systems in each room of hun's house

leo told bishop about the market incident, as he mentioned to casey in 'no paint no gain', which is why tcri (and eventually hun) knows about casey's involvement and relationship with the turtles

i did not know about the 03 nano episodes in depth before writing marion into donnie's tech circle and for that i am so sorry

in 'the psat', irma is supposed to act as the proper example of how to treat the psats: completely unseriously

i didn't know normani announced her album around the time of 'the psat' episode's release until a month after

'the devolution of turtle' was genuinely gonna be a lot more of a sillier episode but it really took a turn after bishop started being developed

the mutants in the cages is basically a gateway implementation for mutants introduced in canon tottmnt when it comes out

the reason the turtles turtle-piled in 'is mutant a heritage' is because it became a coping mechanism for them after the previous episode

and last but not least for the finale (and spoiler tidbit for s2):

miwa

Teenage Mutant Criminal Turtles - Michelangelo

From Donatello's notes...:

Proficiencies: Accelerated Speed, Adaptable to Most Environments Inefficiencies: Questionable Loyalties, Uncontrollably Violent DO NOT SHARE THIS REPORT TO THE EPF. It is a valued safety risk for the mutants in hiding, including Michelangelo. Before escaping from StockGen at age 3, all that was reported was that he had the lowest intelligence of all the mutants and responded badly to medicines. Now, he seems to have developed exponentially, having learned from other intelligent mutants and developed impressive fighting skills. Though, this all comes with the Anti-Human ideology those in hiding seem to have...

Teenage Mutant Criminal Turtles - Donatello

As per (his own) notes...:

Proficiencies: Marksmanship, Heightened Intelligence Inefficiencies: Need for Control, Emotionally Inclined (Though Not All the Time) The most vital thing to remember as an EPF operative is that the ends always justify the means. After years of experimentation and endless studies, it can be safely said that mutants are on a higher level of intelligence and strength than humans, as predicted in the original hypothesis. Although while the original intent was for obedience servants or soldiers, we mutants have been plagued by human emotions that can interrupt what is needed for following protocol, including myself.

i will admit donnie and raph probably have the funniest dynamic of the bunch

Teenage Mutant Criminal Turtles - Raphael Mason

From Donatello's Notes...:

Proficiencies: Hand-to-Hand Combat, Navigation Inefficiencies: Everything Else, Resistant to New Authority, Does Not Consider Consequences This is what many consider the Purple Dragon's mutt, guard-dog, whatever phrase needed for the occasion. According to Hun himself, Raphael had behavioral issues at a younger age but the man had "found the right training tactics" for him. It seems that he knows only the bare minimum of fighting and follows orders when he sees fit. Really, his only passion (and questionable talent) is in the arts, which is completely inconvenient and pointless for the rest of the team.

Teenage Mutant Criminal Turtles - Oroku Leonardo

From Donatello's Notes...:

Proficiencies: Martial Arts, Obedience to Authority Inefficiencies: Unfamiliar with Environment, Easy to Anger, As Egotistical as the Rest of the Foot Clan Raised in Foot Clan territory, Leo takes on a lot after his master, Oroku Karai. She trained him since he was an infant, and he takes pride in his own skills and lineage. As per mantra, he will do whatever it takes to complete a mission. However, while he was formally taught every skillset it takes to be the perfect soldier, he lacks any knowledge or exposure of the world outside of the Foot.

it looks like raph is playing music at the corner...

would you like to join him?

(and Opal here to say good luck at the competition!! the tmct may not be the kindest but at least there's some charm for your turtles to enjoy ^^)

Jennika stops wrangling Venus around to stop and listen to the music, she loves it!

Bad news is she escaped

One of the few ways for Mikey to relax is music. So he’ll be happy to sit and listen.

I hope I drew your Raph alright. His design is pretty fun to draw, to be honest

Also my apologies for answering so late. My brain’s been a little ‘eh’ for the past few days.

"Nice music"

NABTD Donnie is taking a break from all of the other turtles to listen to some music. The turtle playing it looks like they are concentrating, so Donnie is going to try and not disturb them.

(thanks for this ask)
