87Michelangelo - All Symbol Headcanons please uwu

| Send me a symbol and I will write a headcanon about…  For multimuse blogs, please specify!

The og party dude, I love 87 mikey a lot hes such a dork at times in the show but sassy and its just the funniest thing to see. Mikey for sure is mostly just light-hearted and upbeat. He is normally the more positive one out of his brothers. I do love that no matter what though Mikey is always shown to be just ad skilled if not more at times in battle do to his natural raw talent uwu

𝓕 : My muse’s handwriting. (Is it good, bad, difficult to decipher, do they prefer writing by hand or with the help of some form of machine, e.t.c.) 

"Can't be having a sloppy signature after all" I like to think due to Mikey's bit more matureness in 87 series at least he dose have a less sloppy hand writing, and thanks to him being creative he still likes to had some flare into his writing. Mikey letting sizing of course shows he is out going but it;s a pretty easy thing to say when it comes to the orange banded turtle. The spacing in his letters show that well Mikey may like alone time here and there he perfers the company of others. He is very much a dependent turtle. Not that he can't handle being alone but if the option of being around someone else is there he will rather that that. He uses a soft pressure due to his empathetic and sensitive nature. 87 Mikey is pretty in tune with his emotions. Likely thanks to him being the youngest and having said freedom to be as such. It's why he was able to tell Casey had a crush on Raph, or that Don was truly heart broken over what happened with him and April. And well he is someone who can be dependable in this sense if you notice how far off to the left the dot of his i is you will also learn he is a massive procrastinator. Even if this Mikey tends to take training a bit more serious than other versions he still rather watch tv or make pizza at times.

✈ : My muse and  traveling. (If they do it frequently and why, if they never left their home town, e.t.c.)

"Ehh we been to a lot werid places?"

in Raph I had forgotten the turts have been to Europe but also other dimensions even. So I would argue traveling to different world may just be further than anywhere they have been on earth.

✿ : My muse and nature. (If they are an ‘outdoorsy type’, like the sound of bird’s singing, if they have never set foot in a forest, e.t.c.) 

"Sure i'm all for nature so long as I can bring the tv with me."

I love constantly making fun of the turtle not being into camping despite it also being like the one time they can fully enjoy just being out and about at times like even in later seasons when the turtles are more free to walk around in later seasons they do go some stigma against them. I feel Mikey just truly has become accustomed to the modern conveniences is all.

☼ : My muse’s first memory. (Where it was, who was with them, how this memory makes them feel, e.t.c.) 

"uh I guess the most I think back to is when we mutated?"

far as I am aware or can recall 87 turtles never had a childhood per-say. Their baby stage/kid stage of life was spent when they were normal turtles and by the time they mutated they were already mature which is why they just pop as we see them in show. I feel that is when Mikey first memory kind of starts himself. Not that he don't recall somethings at time just his mind was developed in the same manor so it's easier to recall anything since that moment. Besides it's pretty life changing when you think about it.

☙ : My muse’s favourite food. (Bonus: A memory, be it good or bad, associated with said food.)

"If ya don't know then I don't know what to tell you dude."

I feel you have to be a fake fan not to know the turtles love pizza especially Mikey u-u and like many of the Mikey's it seems that love takes him to learning to cook. I feel he learned the basics from Splinter. But since most his cultural intake is from tv he started to try stuff out from tv shows and just really go into cooking ever since. Not like baking himself he perfers the savory stuff. But He would love to hear about Caasey being a baker uwu he has an odd friendship with Casey so I think he just like to bond with his brother in law this way. Look the moment he clocked into Casey crush he decided Casey was family u-u.

In truth HE should be the one making food for Von I like to think he was the one who gave Raph the idea that cooking would be the way to make peace with her. But Mikey sort of understands where Raph is coming from he should step in and help sorry Von but he knowns it wouldn't quite do the same if he made the food for Raph to give.

But he likely will be the one that has to sort of point out to Raph why this make casey jelly uwu Mikey understand the relationship to food.

♬ : My muse and music. (What type of music they like listening to and in what context, what music they would never listen to, e.t.c.)

"Oh I love music! nothing better than some good tunes brah."

Mikey dose love music of course, he tends to like more pop and rock music. A big fan of the likes of Modonna and Billy Joel. And just music that fits his more upbeat persona himself. Often can be found blasting music in the lair when he is in the kitchen or alone in the room it's always a karaoke session with Mikey.

↺ : My muse and the past. (Do they live in the past and struggle to let go of past grievances, or move on more easily, is there anything in their past they want to forget, e.t.c.) 

"ehh sometimes shit happen my dude but can't dwell forever."

Mikey's pretty good about learning to let things go. Being the youngest dose often mean he sort of gets his feelings hurt unintetnationally by his brothers time to time. But Mikey's able to understand and sort of see where they come from. When Don takes his frustrations out on his inventions being stolen or not working. When Raph makes snarky remarks or Leo even can get to be a tad demanding. His empathy dose allow him the head space to come to an understanding. he isn't immune to making petty comments or sassy remarks himself when he dose get baited into it. He's just a tad more emotionally mature.

☾ : My muse and sleep. (How much they sleep, how much they wish to sleep, if there is something that never fails to put them to sleep, e.t.c.) 

"I gotta get my beauty sleep don't look this good with out it."

Mikey is someone who can just sort of clonk out once it time for bed he is very much like the sun come morning he is up and beaming bright. Which im sure can annoy others not feeling the same way. the sunnier the day the sunnier Mikey himself is going to be. He can be an early riser even soon as the sky is awake Mikey is awake. Even with them often having to be active at night though he find its tough to stay up too late with out being busy he can do it and often can survive on little sleep and still be happy as can be.

✧ : My muse and art. (If they have an artistic side or not and why, favourite artist if they have one, e.t.c.) 

"I am named after an artis buuuuut I aint following his foot steps unless cooking counts?"

Which i feel it dose and should be more often. I truly see Mikey being a fan of many cooking shows and liking to try and plate and presentation food in a similar fashion. Its only for fun so he only dose it when its just him in the kitchen or if hes making something special for someone else. He may also make it look nice buuut that's resevered for someone he had feelings for more than anything uwu or his brothers just to cheer them up.

❃ : My muse and social media. (If the muse is/would be on social media and why/why not, their general opinion on it, e.t.c.) 

"Eh not much myself."

I know there was like forms of social media in the time that the 87 show aired over and such but with the fact the turtles tend to not really give much implications of wanting to really interact with humans at times but will help because it's the right thing and something they can even do. Mikey seems content with the friends they have ant not in a real need to expand his circle any time soon.

✉  : My muse and others. (If they social and outgoing or more introverted, and why. If they prefer communicating with others face to face or in written form, e.t.c.). 

"I mean I'm the party dude?"

I find the idea of mikey not being extroverted hilarious. Mikeys someone who tends to be able to openly talk with others with out issues often the friendest of the group as well. Where Mikey can be sort of between his brothers when it comes to thier involvement with the humans he tends to lean more on Leo's end not so much to be a hero but very much following his brother well also feeling it is the right thing todo. He dose enjoy meeting new people but that dosent always mean everyone. Sometimes he can find some charaters a bit much and be happy to just move on with them but he's also happy to welcome them back as well. It's just who Mikey is after all.

▶ : My muse and level of education. (If the muse has some form of education, what education they perhaps wish they had, e.t.c.). 

"I mean splinter taught all of us so there's that I guess?"

Mikeys real only education has been his ninja training so to help protect himself after all beyond that it's very much a if he wants to learn deal. Mostly mikey is more invested in not sitting down and learning stuff he dosent need to or even want to. He isn't like an idiot he's been shown to understand some concepts here and there but he's still got his gaps in knowledge he just at least have some common sense. Surpingly.

◐ : My muse and animals. (If they like animals and treat them well, do not care for them at all, e.t.c.). 

"I've had a few pets even got some fish for Raph!"

Mikey's had at least three or four pets himself in the show and even got Raph Japanese fighting fish once. I feel like he's very much a guy who sees an animal inn need if home and wants to help. I don't think he keeps any pets himself but will have a pet for a bit before having to take them somewhere they can live a happier life at instead. But of course he dose have a soft spot for cats like many Mikeys Do.

❒ : My muse and gifts. (If they are good/bad at finding gifts, good/bad at receiving gifts, good/bad at wrapping gifts, e.t.c.) 

"Gift are prettt nice I like to give and get them."

As mentioned before he did gift Raph some fish and its sort of over looked and misinterpreted that 87 raph dosen't care for fighting where it's ture he isn't looking for a fight he sure dose like to pick them still and even express interesting in contact sports still. So I feel mikeys pick of the fish shows this understanding of people he is close to. He did get upset when he thought everyone forgit his brithday but he seemed more down about just not getting acknowledged for it over a party or gifts.

Dosent mean Mikey dosent enjoy getting gifts of course but he dose agree its all about the thought that went into it over what the item is.

I feel like he lokes to try and out the same though behind gifts he may go for others but he dosent really got out of his way very much a it's your brithday or Christmas so I'm getting you gift person.

☘ : My muse’s relation with their family. (If they speak with each other and how much, if they are close or estranged, e.t.c.). 

"My brothers can be annoying buy I love them."

It is sad to me how I feel Splinter dose very much and clearly viwe the turtles as his sons but the turtles are some of the few to not see him as a dad but I feel it's that they do. They worked through the first season alone to try and help him demutate from being a rat after all. And when he had advance to go back to the human world theu were all sad at the thought of never seeing him again. Mikey shows he respects Splinter a lot and will often listen to him. Like when he refers to them as man and gets scolded he corrects himself. I feel he dose see Splinter as someone who cared and cares for him but worries he may lose that.

But knows he at least has his brother always.

Mikey dosent take advantage of being baby brother comaprednto later interactions fo and will. But I feel his brothers do instead viwe him a bit more that way so it dose allow Mikey to get away with his antics and such but also at the same time getting seen as equal to his brothers as a ninja.

I feel Mikey is the closest to Leo.he often follows in thier lead with not real fight. And tends to team up with Leo the most well sharing in Leo's ideals at times here and there. It could be he is just following because Leo is in charge but often he also speaks up when ever Don or Raph tend to expression not seeing why they need todo something he will speak up before Leo.

I feel he is about the same closeness to Don and Raph. But feels the pair are much closer he dosent have anything against this because he in turn os the same with Leo after all. But he also seems just as happy to be around either of them as Leo. But Raoh at least dose seem guilty of seeing Mikey as baby brother even expressing he can't beat even a robot version of the guy and the time he because a kid turtle didn't help. So he will at times get annoyed with raph and is often opposite of the more rude brother. Where with Donnie he seems to try and hold mkre balance along with.

Aflockoffeathers: 

Raph and Don : [ you think first I hit first - aflockoffeathers]

[2k7 Don @ Raph + Mikey - totally didn't forget to send this nope nope uwu]

"Oh good, you're both home," Don starts with a beaming grin that hadn't been seen in a while, "I have a new project I want to show you guys."

Instead of leading them to his lab though, he instead holds up a polaroid photo, not quite showing them yet though as he goes on to explain this 'project',

"Well, I say 'I have', it's actually something Yvonne and I are working on," He explains, a wag to his tail, "Biomaterials, we're estimated everything will be ready between thirty seven to forty two weeks max, and we're already six weeks in; that's how we were able to get this photo."

And that's when, finally, Donatello shows it to them, handing it to Raph first - call it twin privileges. Though he won't go into details how he got an Ultrasound picture, he does give a second to let the penny fully drop,

"We're thinking Ariel for if they're a girl, Eric if they're a boy," He announces, obviously feeling proud and excited as he tells his brothers, "So, what do you guys think about being Uncles?"

| Muse interaction

Mikey's laugh easily echoed across the walls of the lair as he skated ahead of Raphael hot on their heels. For a turtle he was fast more so when Mikey annoyed him enough, which was why Mikey was laughing so giddy as he had been. Raph throwing out threats and swears as he was running after Mikey it looked stupid with him running back and further just barely catching up t them. Leonardo was near by watching them being stupid as they could, and that was only annoying Raphael even more. Being made too look like some fool because of the youngest of them. "Fuck you Mikey I'm too old to be acttin' 'ike this anymore."

Mikey slowed down beside him ready to argue that point or make the old statement more annoying to his brother he hadn't picked just yet when he went to open his mouth ready to let which ever choice just happen, when everyone paused at the sight of Donatello.

"Oh good, you're both home,"

Mikey forgetting he was in the middle of annoying Raph can't help but smile back when seeing Donatello's big wide beaming smile just now. Kicking the back of his board so he could hold it under his arm. "yeah just making sure Raphie here ain't trying to pull more Nightwatcher when no ones watching him." he teased ducking away when Raph decided being mature was over rated for a chance to hit Mikey.

"I have a new project I want to show you guys."

Both the orange and red banded turtle shared a confused expression when Donatello help out a photo to show this 'project' he was talking about. Raphael turned to look at Mikey as if they were going to be able to clue him into anything. Mikey Offered a shrug of his shoulders at first glance they couldn't tell what the image of the polaroid was meant to be off. it was all just grey and black maybe some sort of this being shown but even Mikey could make sense of the randomness. Well seemingly random. So the pair turn towards Leo but he didn't seem to know as he joined the group.

"Well, I say 'I have', it's actually something Yvonne and I are working on,"

"So you an' Von are off bein' nerds 'bout what exactly?" Raph asks wishing they just tell them what was up instead.

"Biomaterials, we're estimated everything will be ready between thirty seven to forty two weeks max, and we're already six weeks in; that's how we were able to get this photo."

Silence fell between them all a few blinks between them all as they each tried to figure out any of those words that Donnie let out just now. They didn't even need to share a look this time before Raph opened his beak again to speak up.

"Biomaterial? Donnie drop the geek speak and fuckn' use English here will ya!"

Don's response was to hand the photo over, Raph took it with out much argument and pulled it over his way as Mikey leaned in over on shoulder trying to take a peak at what Donnie and Yvoone had been making. Raph noticed something though, tugging the photo up to his eye. He never seen this sort of photo before. But he swears there's something there? That was a head right? and what might be arms and some legs? something living? Wait was this ? He turns to Leo they seemed ti figure it out to about the same time Mikey giving a delight squeal beside him a moment later.

"We're thinking Ariel for if they're a girl, Eric if they're a boy,"

"Seriously! At first I thought it was some alien freak" Mikey started off with finally having the verbal confirmation and well to be fair the ultrasound was kind of weird looking after all. "Like no one else was talking yet so I was all dang are Von and Donnie just finding aliens now? I mean possible I guess but you made it sound like ya made something so then I though oh they are making aliens. But I couldn't figure out why? But instead ya guys made a baby!" He rambled on a moment there.

Raph doing the honors of hitting Mikey ti get him to shut up so Donatello could speak once again.

"So, what do you guys think about being Uncles?"

Despite them all finally clueing in there it kindnof didnt hit that this meant they were uncles. Thier family was growing. Mikey and Raph wasted no time running right Donnie arms thrown out to snag him into a group hug, clearing him over and landing together in a pile to the floor. They couldn't help the excitement that went through them all just now.

"This is amazing! I can't believe it! I always knew you would make for a great Dad Dee and now you are gonna be a great dad to little Eric or Ariel!" Mikey exclaimed first having not gotten hurt himself so his excitement didn't come to any end.

Raphael meanwhile managed to work an around around Donnie, trapping him in a slight headlock as knuckles grind in against the top of his head laughing slightly. "Can't believe you guys been keepin' 'his from us!" Raph remarks clearly happy for them though, just not as vocal compared to Mikey for that excitement. Letting go of Donnie once he felt he had enough and first to move to sit up as he grabs at Mikey so he could pull them off right after. So the Dad to be could finally get some air himself. Raph holding up the photo ones more as he slightly held it for Donnie too.

"Look at that Don you made that." Raph stated because well it was something to truly marvel over. This little blob of a thing was going to become Donnie's kid their family was going to grow by one more. After everything fell apart they were still working on building it back putting the pieces together once again. It was nice to see Donnie smiling as wide and bright as he told them he was going to be a dad.

"oh oh we gotta start getting you baby things" Mikey jumped to his feet now. Grabbing at Leo and tugging him as he made way to leave the Lair. "Were gonna be their favorites cause your too slow Raph!" Mikey yelled over his shoulder heading off.

Raph just sat on the ground and groaned a little letting his own eyes drop to the picture him self. Actually he had a better idea for them. Why dig through the trash? His niece or nephew should have something new made by hand even.

[ducknotinarow]

 Mikey: “Hey, this is going to sound pretty dumb but... Are you sure Casey is human?”

Donatello: “...I was until you asked me that. What brought this on?”

Mikey: “Let’s just say I saw something I shouldn’t have, and it’s messing with me a little...”

03 MikeyDon - "Just say it!" - Topic: Skateboard

| My muse struggles with the truth...Send "Just say it!" And my muse will confess to something they don't really talk about. Bonus: specify a specific topic and that's what they will talk about!

Mikey was stood just outside of Donnie's lab hand lifted up so he could knock on the door the first sign the youngest was ready to ask for something from their own mister fix it. But before he even had his knuckles meet the door it opened wide and Raphael and Leonardo were walking out from the lab. Mikey stepped back some and offered a tilt of his head. It looked far more like Leo was walking Raph out from the lab with how he had his hand resting on the best of their shell. Raphael's face was fixed into that usual sour and grump expression. Leo was mentioning something along the lines of it being fine and that Raph should just leave Don be.

"Something up?" Mikey asks letting both of them know he was there now too. Leo, as always offered that smile that just read as I know better to the youngest. Which meant something had to have happened. Leo just gave a simple 'nothing' Donnie was just busy working on something. Raph tried to get him to rest but as Leo put it Donnie was in one of those 'whatever it takes' stages of a project. Meaning no one would be getting Donnie to stop to rest or much else help with anything else.

Leaving Mikey to look down to the busted skateboard before he quickly hid it behind his shell. Unnoticed thanks to the loud mouth Raph complaining about Don's current state only for Leo to contuine usher him away for Donnkes sake. Mikey stepping off to the side as he watched the pairs shells. Raphael continued throwing his fit, and Leo handled him.

Mikey's smile faded once they were far away enough, allowing him to move his skateboard back in front of himself to look down at. Eyeing the busted wheels on the back. It was his fault having found an old subway tunnel to skate around in he started off just grinding off the stair rails but then he wanted to see if he could do it on the tracks next and we'll yeah the screws came lose and a wheel was cracked. The other? Lost. Normally Mikey didn't cate too much about bursting into the lab and interrupting Donnie. Often he was the convinet break the genius was over due for. But when Donnie got in thise 'whatever it takes' stages? Even Mikey didn't want to bother him.

Well okay? Mikey helped set up the lair he knows how to use the basic tools that's all he really needed was a screw driver? He thinks. He know Donnies got a collection of spare parts tucked away into his lab. He jsut needs some new wheels, screws and the sliver part that hold the wheel in. He could do that oh and the screw driver can't forget that. Board tucked under his arm as Mikey quietly ventured into Don's lab.

Sure enough there he was hunched over his desk face buried deep into some blue prints it seemed. Mikey could even take a guess at what of the million projects had his brother so fixated like that. As he quickly step through the lab. Heels lofted and weight shifted towards his toes. As he made his way through to where he remembered Donnie kept those spare parts at. Donnie always said you never knew when something would be useful so collecting stuff they needed replace often? Happened a lot. Like Mikey breaking his boards from getting a bit to hard in tricks and such.

He finally reached where he needed and set his board down, a quick look paid towards Don, they hadn't noticed him perfect. So he went back to shift through the stuff around draws and piles being raumaged around in. He knew it was somewhere in the mess.

"Ha!" Mikey exclaims forgetting the whole being quite part of his plan. Happily finding the assoment of parts for thier various rides. Finding them in good condition was tough as is so being able to maintain them was always important. He rumaged through the different wheels of course he wish they would March his current orange ones but he had to settle for a yellow one and red and orange tie dye one. He just needed some screws and that sliver part next? Shifting through the different wheels and such had the orange banded turtles brow knothing up as he kept rummaging through huffing and giving up he begging lookong around the area. If Donnie didn't know, he was around before he will now. As he search grew things started getting thrown and knocked over. Mikey utter oops here and there everytime it happened. Yet, Mikey still managed to feel startled when Donnie finds him in the act. Loud and shrill scream escapse Mikey ad he quickly turns around. But the fear died down quick seeing it was only Donnie.

"Oh. Man Donnie don't scare a guy like that." Mikey huffs before going back to what he was doing of course he was questioned. But well Mikey really didn't want to bother Donnie right now. Well, more than he already had, at least. "Don't worry I got this I just need that sliver part that connects the wheel and the board." Mikey explains holding up his board so Don could see the damage done before he set it back down. "Oh and screws of course that help too. Don't mind me I can fix it." Maybe. Donnie seemed ready to tell Mikey he could do it and of course Mikey was fast to jump on that. "I got it promise! Once I find everything I'll be outta your " He paused looking up at Donnies blad head a second. "Uh lab."

Of course, Donnie wasn't going to just let Mikey make a mess though.

| "Just day it"

Mikey sighs and turns to look at Donnie "I bug you all the time Dee, and you always got your own stuff to sort out. Heck Raph and Leo do too. So when I heard you were really busy I didn't want to be annoying is all." Mikey confesses a bit. "...more than I already annoy you...cause I know I bug you the most outta all of us. Figured I can least figure out how to fix my own problem for once. So I'll be quote promise I just need to find a few things and I'll be outta your mask tails."

@aflockoffeathers said: MM MikeyDon - [☃️] our muses build a snowman together

| SEND AN EMOJI FOR A STARTER ! ↳ winter season & holiday based

Snow always looked well soft of the TV. Though part of that was due to the fact most the Christmas specials they watched the snow was cotton. But it always looked fluffy like a litteral blanket! Easy mistake to learn from after you dive head first into the fresh powered outside the school. Somewhere in Mikey's skull, he felt like he should have known better. Why else would something lole snow mean they needed to be bundled up to keep warm after all? New York was well known for having cold winters, after all, too.

But, somehow, that all never fully factored into the image Mikey had conjured up in his mind. Even just allowing himself to lie in the cold snow. Despite the flakes that had slipped past layers of clothes, his scarf and gloves even. The initial shock of the cold had already wore off as he stayed dedicated to lay in the snow. Donnie and him left to wait for Raph and Leo who both were being held up by something. Leo had more of an excuse in truth. He was handing off some permission slip to the office so he and April could check out equipment from the school. Raphael? No one was really sure he just said he be right back too. Mikey was pretty sure it was related to Casey.

Which drew the turtles' attention towards the only brother waiting with him right now. Donnie usually seemed ready to enjoy pointing out when one of them messed up or showed themselves to be wrong. But Donnie seemed miles away. Mikey was a little annoyed by that.

Moving to sit up leaving behind his hat in the snow as he worked to dust some of it off. If Donnie was being Donnie then he would have been happy to remind Mikey snow was ice, which was cold and turned into water once warm like it was now become inside of his pants. Mikey could be upset that Donnie didn't point that out before he hand lepted off the school stairs into the snow. But even if he had? Mikey likely would have done it anyway. He was more annoyed thst Donnie wasn't paying attetion to him at all. As he bunched up a good size of snow in his hands before turning around and tossing his quickly made snow ball at his brother. Simply sticking out his tounge after it hit his mark.

"Come on Donnie play in the snow with me!! We never got todo it before!" He slightly whines before moving to stand up. "We shoild do all the things we always saw humans do!" He exclaims if that's going to get his brother to agree despite the fact he beamed them in tje head with a ball of snow second ago. In his defense Mikey didn't throw a fit when he had ninja stars throw at him when holding a watermelon. That looked a lot like his head. Looking around for a moment "Oh oh! Like a snow mam Donnie!" Mikeys excitement was far to easy to build as he slightly skip for foot to foot at the thought along himself.

Trotting up the steps as he grabs at Donatello frocing them back down the stairs and into the snow where he had been resting before. Settling down on the ground, he start to pact the snow for a bade. "Oh maybe we could make it a turtle even!" Mikey states uncaring that playing in the snow wasn't really something 'teens' did maybe teens who didn't have to spend years of thier life hidden away but this teen was going to! And so was Donnie.

As Mikey was working to round out the bottom of the snowman he was slwoly building up into a sort of rounded base. "Come on Don, whatever you hung up about you can think about later." Mikey suggests unaware just how much that would be an issue over the winter break. But for now why worry about it? Least that what Mikey thought. As they were slightly successfully putting together thier snow man. He looked more like a few large lumps of snow

"He's beautiful or she's handsome." Mikey offers as he was placing any rocks he could find into Donnies hand to make the face "I'm an actor not a artis" He states as if that's would excuse his abitly to turly tell. Running in thought as he goes ahead and set his hat on to the top of the Snowmans 'head' "see perfect!" It was far from it but Mikey didn't care as he kept smiling "Kind of wish Leo and Raph were here too though." He admits but dosent expand on tje reason.

He's glad they finally got to go to school and everything he'll he was even happy for Don and Raph in thier respective relationships even. But Mikey felt like sometimes? All this stuff was pulling them apart. But, even with winter break being a downer cause it meant they wouldn't be at school for two weeks it did mean they would be together right? Right. He just needed to focus on that.

Sadly it seemed all the hangs up with his brothers weren't going to be left at the entrance of tha lair. Pulling out his phone he steps back to take photos of Donnie and the snowman they made. Well Mikey mlre made it but he was counting Donnie in on the credit. "Almost looks like you?" He jokes "oh put your glasses on it we can send a photo to Von!" He tries to partake with. But maybe thar mention of his brothers girlfriend should have stayed unsaid. Not that Mikey noticed any reaction his brother gave going back to try and squeeze with them for a self next. "Raph and Leo gonna be jealous clearly."

Mikey like all his brothers? Of course also loved Christmas it was always a special day for them Dad always did what he could to make the day special for them. And they always loved it. They look forward to even one of the few times they weren't always looking for an excuse to sneak up to the surface really either but. Mikey had notice this time? Well things seemed a bit different. Dad, was a bit hm scattered he feels was a decent word to use. trying to juggle the old traditions and find ways to inculcate everyone else in on it too and be open to other things. But then there were his brothers, Leo wasn't too bad really. Then you had Raph. Raph didn't seem to be holding the same spirit. Seeming a bit moody these day's lately considering he snapped over the tree. Don? he seemed to be in a whole other world himself. Not all to present in their usual traditions. All lost to some project he been working on.

That wasn't too out there for Donnie of course, Donnie was known to zero in when something grabs his attention. It was fine over all Mikey guessed it made sense this year was bond to be different after all. They weren't just the smaller family after all. They now had Mondo, Ray, Bepbop and Rocksteady, wingnut, leatherhead, Genghis, and well of course uh Scumbug as well. That was cool too he was happy that Dad seemed so happy with her. But Mikey had to admit the family didn't feel all that together this year. And sure changes will do that but it was like they were being pulled apart. Something he and Mondo had spoken about in the tunnels together. When he voiced his worries over all the changes. Mondo helping to reassure him everything was fine. Far as Mikey was concerned Mondo was the smarts mutant he knew.

Because the mutant he once thought fit that was currently being the biggest idiot of them all. Well Raph might be more so. Maybe they were the same equal level of idiot? Whatever he could understand his brother plight here but still. Leaning over to look at the paper Donnie was hunched over right now. Mikey felt it looked pretty good. It looked better than anything else he seen Donnie draw hell far better than the manga he and Von made that for some reason featured Casey in it? Or someone that was like Casey? Sometimes it truly was better not to question his brothers and just go with the flow like Mondo always said. But right now? Mikey didn't see how going with flow was the answer. Quirking his beak a little.

"Donnie, your being stupid." Mikey went on to state his tone was even and his brown was knitted into a unimpressed expression when he said it. "It looks great! And if anything that is the perfect gift for you to give to Von!" He went to add on. "You guys spend time drawing together you made your own story even? And now your making a drawing of Von" He paused a second "A portrait" He corrected. "You know something you went and pour all this time and effort into? And you wanna sit here and think it'd not good?"

He questions trying to see if Donnies was smart enough to follow on his line of thought of course he wasn't so Mikey rolled his eyes a little. "Dude Dad loves are dinky ordenaments so much he wraps them in news paper I wouldn't be surpised if Von frames that or something. You day she this great girl right?" It likely pointless for Mikey to keep trying but damn it he wasn't going to give up. They were going to gather and watch the tree together one way or another!

"Donnie, let me ask you something if Von Is as great a person as you claim her to be" his wording may be hard but it was on pu4pose, these improve games were really paying off. "Are you telling me she would be happy that you spent your family time working on her gift that you have poured your heart out into already but she apperntly wouldn't like now?" Mikey poses "I dunno Don makes me wonder what kind of girl your dating now." He waits a moment feeling pretty good about where he stands.

"Do you see how insane thar aounds!" He yells suddenly. "That's clearly not who she is or how she be Donnie." He sighs put dropping the role he assigned himself. Letting his face fall a bit. "Could you please Donnie? It's always been a thing for use todo and we still need Raph too I think it be nice to get every together for the tree." He pleads a little hoping one of his two methods gets through his brother. But Donnie might just be that much of an idiot.

"Donnie, seriously, your being worse than Leo. And least you have Rizz." Something Leo will never live down. "Von gonna love thar I think it looks amazing it's like your best work! There's no reason to waste the whole of our holiday stuff on this. Von likely gonna love anything I mean your first date was just spent drawing and such right? So course shell llve this it's like a whole display of your relationship I a gift! What could be a better gift than that?" Hope mlre lole praying and wishing at once that finally he'll get through to Donnie maybe even a little.

03/07 MikeyDon - [🎄] our muses decorate a christmas tree together

| SEND AN EMOJI FOR A STARTER ! ↳ winter season & holiday based

Christmas was a holiday they had celebrated before course in their ways at least. Not like Halloween when Splinter would take them to the surface. But they still enjoyed the day, presents weren't not a thing for them but it wasn't really like how humans went about the day. But it was still one of Mikey's favorite holidays. Human friend helped with the whole experience. Since April was kind enough to get them a Christmas tree again. Fresh pine smell really helped to cover up the usual smell of the lair. It was just so full and green! Sure they see a lot of green down here but this was different it was a giant living tree! Mikey smiled wide admiring it. Years of looking at picture books with the green trees always wondering if they could do that as well.

Just have a tree Mikey sure was all about the gifts under it too but it was always the tree that really got his attention. The lights the ornaments, he was tempted to think a way to convince Raph on the whole string popcorn bit even. Maybe if he set him up for a mistletoe kiss with Casey he would feel inclined to agree to any request Mikey made? It was pretty obvious what was going on there after all. Mikey side eyeing said pair after getting the tree set up. Before snapping back to the tree. Hearing Donnie join him with the box of decorations had the orange banded turtle smile brighter than he was a second ago.

It was also the nice fact Donnie would put his own projects and such aside to join his brothers for the holiday festivities. Getting put on to tree duty with Mikey as the bound over to them eyeing the box contents a moment but his smile did finally fade a little. Sure they didn't have the same grand collection of ornaments in the books or tv movies. But they had a nice selection that was slowly growing smaller year by year. "Man did the big klutz break more last year?" Mikey frowns over slightly whining to his brother. He might be taking back the whole scheme to help Raph out now. He sighed a bit and took the box from Donnie's hold. They still had a good amount inside the box but still was a bummer for the orange banded turtle. Slightly annoyed over it.

His attention shifted pretty quick soon after. Getting over it because it only really set in what was in front of him. Donnie. Mikey smiling as he set the box done and grabbed the first ornament from it for Donnie to have. "Can't be letting you try and sneaking away it's family time Donnie boy" Mikey states as he pushes Don slightly by the shell towards the tree. "Well it's you and me time and since you ditched me last movie night it seemed fair." Mikey goes on to express ignoring any retort from his brother. Before lowering his eyes back to the box. He tried to get over it but it was kind of a downer if he were honest. Sure they were old, and most the hooks were replaced by like paper clips by now some paint or whatever was on them had chipped away letting the silver under so but it just gave them character if anything. That's when his eyes drifted towards Don's Bo staff.

It wasn't really weird or out there for any of them to be carrying their weapons on them at all times. Least to them it wasn't. They were extensions of them that way. Shell take away their mask colors and they would still in the least have their weapons. They used them for all kinds of things not just training or real fights after all. And sometimes someone else used them as it only took that two seconds of his eyes resting on the weapon as he reached slowly keeping a watchful eye on Don's back. He grabbed for it and smiled mischievously to himself. Watching as Don put one ornament on the tree waiting for them to turn slightly away as they seemed to be spacing them out. Made sense spread them out over the tree would make it not as easy to tell how little decoration they had. Not that it was going to matter as Mikey hooked the ornament on the end of the staff soft chuckle under his breath. As he pulled it back in towards himself. Smiling at the success as he set it back into the box doing his best to hold back a laugh when Donnie grab for it again and went to set it up on the tree. Nearly dancing on his feet where he was standing.

He got away with it and oh boy did he already feel that small little thrill and high of a joke going well. As he waited for Donnie to look away again he Mikey pulled off another ornament that same dose of emotions hitting him when he settle it into the box. Not wanting to make it too obvious. Donnie was smart after all if it were Raph he might be able to get away with handing the same one to him over and over again. But with Donnie? he should play it a bit more safe as he even picked up Leo's yinyang one up and handed it over to Don. Making sure to hold out their bo staff off to the side so to avoid it being seen.

"You go bro!" He said as cheerily as he could with out giving himself away. Seemed to help prevent any suspicion after all when was Mikey ever quite? only when he was up to something. "Man this years gonna be the best though right Don?" Mikey offered even making sure his brother saw him set a chipped up green orb on to a branch in front of him. "I mean it always a blast of course but now we getting large and larger." Mikey added in pausing a moment to think over his own wording in the moment "Our group I mean" He was quick to correct in case Don thought he meant it physically.

"I mean we got use, LH, April, Casey i guess, and even Vonnie! Oh did you invite her to join us?" Mikey asked reaching around his brother shoulder to snatch another ornament off it's branch. Feeling mentioning her would work as the best distraction. "I mean I was planing to anyway I'd love to talk her into a girls night for Christmas eve too! OH we should have a big slumber party!" he tosses out "I mean only me and April and Von for the girls night but Im sure Casey could hang out. pft like that guys got anything better going on. LH I bet could chat about science junk with you though." Mikey continued to yap away as if he was doing nothing else. Splinter did always tell him he was skillful and if he just focused more he likely be even better. Too bad Mikey was quick to lose it.

As he was letting his mouth run suddenly met with an annoyed expression from Donnie, Mikey face blank unsure why he was aimed with it. Not that he was getting it he often got annoyed glares his way after all. Till he noticed how obvious his trick was now not even keeping the bo of of sight as he had three ornaments hooked on to it he forgot to set the last two back into the box. Only one let to rest on the tree when by no Don would be aware he put far more on there. So he simply smiled. "Uh I was having so much fun i wanted it to last?" he lied obviously, Raph? Mikey never cared much to make mad it was easy. Just say a word he hates and bam done. Leo? it could be funny he got so serious so it just made it funnier. Don though? well sure he liked doing it the little brother cruse but he still knew that once getting to that point it was time to call it quits.

"Ya know was gonna use this deal for lavage with Raph but I think mending peace is better. What if i help set you and Von under the mistletoe?" Mikey offered to Donnie instead with what he felt perfect salesmen pitch and smile.

2k12 Mikey Don - #

send me “#” for cell phone headcanons about our muses including:      

"Aw come on again? I dunno know, feel like Donnie would find me giving my phone over for this to be a pretty obviously bad way to get my information taken or something like that? Since he's always going on about internet safety and such. Then again he was sort of a jerk to me the other day?" The turtle purses his beak and takes a moment to think it over "Alright you can look!"

- what your muse’s name is in mine’s phone    

⚗️"Dee🥼 "

"Yeah nothing to special there I guess but just one of his nicknames we all use here and there. Don, Donnie, Dee. Ya know nothing to out there really I did add some sciencey looking emojis though! I thought about the goggles too since Donnie wears goggles hmm maybe I should swap it for the goggles now instead?" Mikey offers with a tilt of his head :I bet if Don could he would ear the full get up? Maybe I can find him an old lab coat?" Mikey attention shifts away with the the thought.                          

- what your muse’s picture is in mine’s phone        

[image description] it's clearly taken from the pit in the lair, Donnie's on the couch with a tub of popcorn for once out to join the rest of them for some TV time. They look decently happy wearing a pair of socks on their feet because they were complain about being cold. His attention is off to the side because he was in the middle of explaining that to Raphael. You can also slightly just see the corner of Leo's elbow on Don's other side. It was a photo he took of his three eldest brothers all getting ready to sit down and relax for a night in. Just the four them for once at that. Sure Raph was being Raph, grumpy and such. Leo was ready to step in and get all bossy as he does. Well Mikey was trying to run the reigns for the night. But Donnie? looked content and happy. Even with the rough patch it was just a normal moment for the four of them. Donnie didn't seem annoyed by Raph he was smiling that soft little look. Mikey just liked it so he snap the shot and crop each of their faces for their own contacts.

"Ya know? for the longest time all my photos for Donnie tend to have him in his lab. Sometimes yelling for me to get out. Sometimes it's him in the middle of something he's working on. Cause I guess despite knowing Don all my life? I kind of only saw him as the guy with all the answers. The one who can fix everything. And yeah I still do think that way of him but then? he got real sick and mean and stupid. But we all do that stuff mean Raph 'quites' the team least once a month all the time but he always come back after a few days. I guess I kind of forget Donnie's well not just those things? And I dunno I think its a nice photo to use for him to remember that. Even when hes kind of a jerk with the whole online friends stuff I know he's just worried about me. Like how he smiling here seeming happy to be surrounded by us?" Mikey smiles and shrugs his shoulders "You think 15 years of only living and knowing each other we be better at this stuff but I guess we sorta got used to nothing changing we forget those little things? Like sometimes we need 'breaks' and just be allowed to exist and I think Don is the worst about it so it's nice when he lets himself just be with us."

- what your muse’s ringtone is in mine’s phone        

Gold by SHADED What’s it gonna take to fill the void again? Am I doing this all wrong? And will I ever be enough to see the rough and clear it up Until you’re not just giving up? Oh, you lighten up my soul

"Donnie might seem like a jerk and full of himself cause hes smart and junk. But I mean he is really smart course he. But think Donnie prides himself too much into it, yeah he got an ego but that ain't what I mean. Donnie relies on being the smart one ya know? He feel he has to fix everything but he always fixes everything so it makes sense he does think that way? Honestly I think the reason Splinter don't harp too much when he slips is cause well no one can be harder on Don then Don already is on himself. And I dunno think it just makes him thing bad things about himself."

Splintered Fate Michelangelo - All Symbol Headcanons please uwu

| Send me a symbol and I will write a headcanon about…  For multimuse blogs, please specify!

"Looks like i'm up dudes"

When I write SF Mikey I feel it's pretty obvious that I base him off of 03 at best due to the use of the shriek 03 Mikey sort of known for when he gets spooked. I also actually pull from 12 Mikey as well when it comes to his more insightful and need to annoy sides which is why he was so quick to make fun of Donnie when it comes to Von. Not to kiddish a bit more grown in how he acts since this Mikey is pretty good about having a sort of sense of responsibility like 87 Mikey can be.

𝓕 : My muse’s handwriting. (Is it good, bad, difficult to decipher, do they prefer writing by hand or with the help of some form of machine, e.t.c.) 

"Like my name stands out already buuut even among my bros I feel it still needs a touch of flare."

As we know of Mikey he is someone who prefers company over others to his own. Not that he can't handle alone time he just more rather be around others. he's not the best at quietly being together but he is good about being in the same space doing his own thing. Mikey often can be found sitting at the TV in the lair watching it or playing games. Donatello never too far off, usually sitting over by his work station. Raph tends to be around training on the wooden dummies or his room. Leo's normally the closest off mediate near by himself. He's always excited to meet new people so he can be a tad intrusive he means well. As you can see mikey likes to put a small star over his eyes this is a sign of his active imagination as someone who reads only comics this shouldn't be a shock. With the way it slants to the left we can see that Mikey can be a bit reserved himself and even introspective. This trait I feel is why Mikey of all can befriend mutants like Slash. Or despite not feeling he is the best of his brothers Mikey always does his best to try and keep things upbeat. And can be good if he can even get Don to join in on his dumb jokes to annoy Leo with.

✈ : My muse and  traveling. (If they do it frequently and why, if they never left their home town, e.t.c.)

"Uh mostly just New York, Dad ain't too big on us going to the surface as is anyway."

Seeing how this game is a bit more self contained? Yeah I would say it's safe to say these turtles haven't explored beyond their city but I like to think they will. At best maybe some Neighboring States near New York maybe dip into Canada. Maybe hope a boat and cross of to England or even Japan. Or maybe they will finally get answers on the portals and find out why they sided with the foot, what Baxter had to do with it even.

✿ : My muse and nature. (If they are an ‘outdoorsy type’, like the sound of bird’s singing, if they have never set foot in a forest, e.t.c.) 

"Natures a big deal I am I'm a city turtle but I got my roots still." I feel Mikey would someone who would like the idea of camping and such till he starts to understand that he ain't getting any TV time because no power XD Hell Mikey might be desperate enough to had and keep one of those old school hand crank or portable tvs. HE can't go with out it and expecting him to is unnatural he been conditioned don't be rude to him. I think he dose fine during the day when there is more to do of course.

☼ : My muse’s first memory. (Where it was, who was with them, how this memory makes them feel, e.t.c.) 

"My first memory? I kind of remember Splinter finding the first comic for me? Splinter complains about my obsession now but he got me on the hook so seems unfair ya know dudes?"

Splinter doesn't really mind Mikey's interest its how distracted he gets by it all he minds. Living in the sewers of course meant not having much and Splinter wishing he could provide better for his boys. Anytime he came across anything that might be of interest he would bring it back. One day he found an old comic book discarded and brought it home he read it to all the turtles for bed time for something new and Mikey? well he couldn't sleep so when he got out of bed and went to Splinter he went and tried reading more of it to Mikey to help him sleep. This kind of started a tread Mikey learning to read by having Splinter read to him he got invested and it gave him a reason to learn. Very much how Mikey is when it comes to his ninja training as is in the first place. So to Mikey it's just a nice reminder of this fact that he got special time with his dad when he got interested in comics.

☙ : My muse’s favourite food. (Bonus: A memory, be it good or bad, associated with said food.)

"Pizza is my true love guys if I could I'd marry it be a short marriage though might not last through the wedding."

I feel it a no brainier of course Mikey out of all the turtles loves Pizza the most. He finds Pizza to be the best treat he can eat it hot, cold, and in as many other ways he can think. Outside of this Mikey really dose actually like Splinter's Noodle surprise despite how salty it is. But only because Splinter makes it. Mikey was very much that kid who clung around his parent often since his brothers were more good about being on their own. The reason Mikey can cook unlike his brothers or better even is because like with reading he learned from Splinter. Mikey just liked any extra time he could get with Dad. And this turned into a way to express love through food. Why Mikey doesn't mind being the cook for his brothers. He doesn't feel he offers them much else in truth but at least he can make a good meal for them to enjoy. Even if he gets a tad experimental time to time.

♬ : My muse and music. (What type of music they like listening to and in what context, what music they would never listen to, e.t.c.)

"Rock n' roll is my jam!"

Mikey likes music that is like himself energetic and fun, he listens to rock and pop music very often. Anything he can move to basically he's not much for the slower stuff he can often be found with headphone son when in the kitchen or ready comics heck sometimes he just sits around and listens to music. He can be a tad of a dork about it when it comes to games, sometimes he likes to match his own music to boss fights and because of it many games he just can't beat with out the right song on he has tried and failed! And he can't risk his records and speed runs! he gotta have the right beat!

↺ : My muse and the past. (Do they live in the past and struggle to let go of past grievances, or move on more easily, is there anything in their past they want to forget, e.t.c.) 

"Eh not much to think about there I guess? I mean less you mean when I was a kid?"

Mikey doesn't try to dread much on the lack of what they had as kids growing up, but he knows Splinter sacrificed and scraped together best he could for them. Mikey may come off a bit materialistic but this is in fact because of how they grew up, being older and bit more able to get things like DVD's, games and even comics? despite how he can be he takes really good care of his stuff. he keeps his comics in protective sleeves, When he has them if not? they are safety stored away. Mikey tends to freak out when other mess with his stuff but doesn't really always hold this the other way around he is a baby brother after all.

☾ : My muse and sleep. (How much they sleep, how much they wish to sleep, if there is something that never fails to put them to sleep, e.t.c.) 

"You don't get this pretty without catching them Z's. Why Don and Raph look like the way they do."

Surpisngly Mikey is pretty good about going to bed roughly decent hours himself. He's not much of an all nighter person himself, Mikey himself just has a very good internal clock once ten hits he basically out doesn't really matter what he's doing. I mean outside of them being a mission of course. If he is just at home he just passes right out. Mikey is a early riser so to speak as well, not like Leo but I'd say hes moving about by 6am at best and always wide wake bright as the sun and smiling. He is for sure a morning person he is the worst kind though he can start talking the second his eyes open and he doesn't wait for the coffee cups to be empty before he starts to chatter. He also thinks people wanna hear about his dreams so he often rants on about his dreams to others as well. I fell Donnie suffers this the most if anything, Mikey just thinks Donnie can explain why he dreamt about the moldy cheese escapes the trash bin and came for him with a paint gun with pallets full of acid.

✧ : My muse and art. (If they have an artistic side or not and why, favourite artist if they have one, e.t.c.) 

"Eh it's in the name of course i'm an artis!"

I do feel Mikey's creative has other outlets not just his way of thinking or even the kinds of thoughts he has. Mikey just likes art he isn't very serious about it. But he dose enjoy getting to doddle here and there, he likes to slap stickers on everything. Like his skateboard deck a bit more decorative I guess would be the way to say it. He likes to make food into shapes as well. Not always appropriate though uwu. He learned to make a dick shape pancake and he never dose it around Splinter but he thinks it's the funnest thing to do.

❃ : My muse and social media. (If the muse is/would be on social media and why/why not, their general opinion on it, e.t.c.) 

"Oh I'm on it pretty often here and there I like talking to people online about games and such it's fun since my bros aren't into all of that."

Mikey I feel is mostly a twitter person, but I feel he dose have a youtube channel for gaming stuff as I mentioned speed runs earlier he likes to post his speed runs online seeing as Mikey can't often get new games and plays what he owns a lot he has had time to learn all the ways to exploit glitches and such to finish games faster. As mentioned in an ask Mikey follows don and von on twitter. I feel Mikey loves to tag Donnie in things all the time he thinks Donnie might like mostly dumb jokes. Once von is around? I can see him doing the same spamming her here and there. He likes to randomly pop into their threads and post annoying gifs mostly ones telling them to just fuck. But if his heckling ever attracts others to give their two cents? Mikey jumps into defense like excuse you now on invited you here XD. Miekys gifs I feel mostly go ignored anyway by Von and Don so he will sort of fight with the random people to go away XD.

His own context is as mentioned just comics and games. Sometimes he posts pictures from around the city. He has a pretty good following because he is just very personable so he draws in followers pretty easy. So he's collab with others who make context like himself, luckily no ones thought much about him not having camera they tend to buy him being poor which isn't really a lie.

✉  : My muse and others. (If they social and outgoing or more introverted, and why. If they prefer communicating with others face to face or in written form, e.t.c.). 

"I love meeting new people! I like handing around them to I get bored being alone."

As for here it's kind of set that Casey was the first human they ever really met. And I feel Mikey too some interest there similar to 03 mikey he sees Casey as this cool older brother who lets him get away with more than his own will. But he still gets pretty annoyed with Casey simallir to a sibling. Ironic. But he often jokes about April being the real first human they met. Because Casey doesn't count he's just the stray that never left. With April, Mikey tends to be a bit more accommodating around Simallir to how he was when Von first came around. I think Mikey's just good about getting along with others as mentioned it's said he's friends with Slash so no one really too of putting for him to be friendly with. He just makes exceptions like Casey again this is more because they have known Casey a bit longer. They were all kind of younger when Casey first came around so he get more family like acceptance from Mikey.

Same goes for him only as I mentioned a bit in the previous section he someone that just talks to others pretty often here and there. When he's scrolling through online. A few he dose consider friends. He has meet a few of them in person and they don't mind the turtle thing. Really all Mikey cares about is he wants to find people he can vibe with he doesn't care much for if their interests don't match sometimes he find it makes things more interesting like with Von and April.

▶ : My muse and level of education. (If the muse has some form of education, what education they perhaps wish they had, e.t.c.). 

"uh? I mean ninja school I guess?"

Mikey has basic knowledgeable and that is about all. He still needs to count with his hands which is hard when you only have three fingers. As mentioned he did learn to read from Splinter and comic's is sort of where he learned ti write as well. No where like Don of course he just learned what he needed and that all he needs but he still doing better than Raphael who tends to says things wrong all the time. Though for some I feel he just stands there and nods along as if he understands, till someone points out raph is wrong so he shakes his head as if he knew that.

◐ : My muse and animals. (If they like animals and treat them well, do not care for them at all, e.t.c.). 

"aww i like them they are cute! I like cats the most!"

Mikey and cats that is all I can really say. Mikey of course like animals they are cute and well animals tend to be more accepting then humans are of him so he likes to pet any strays he comes by he is a bit of animal whispering so if he finds a stray and knows where its owners are he'll drop the pet off at the door. Don't thinks this is only in good will if a reward is offered he finds a way to make sure he can get it as well.

❒ : My muse and gifts. (If they are good/bad at finding gifts, good/bad at receiving gifts, good/bad at wrapping gifts, e.t.c.) 

"I never turn down a present!"

He dose not. Mikey can be easily bought just get him something he wants. Casey and Raph want the tv? just slip him a new comic or CD he don't got and hell move. Wanna buy his silence? give hims something. Want him ti side with you in a fight? same deal XD Mikey loves to receive presents and hell complain because it means hell get more stuff down the road. Other way around? he's not the best gift giver but he tries he really dose. He tries to find useful stuff for Donnie, gets candles for Leo, ducktape for Raph because it''s way to fix his punching back all the time or patch holes in his hammocks. Not out there but he dose think about it if he find something his brothers like more so? he cant wait to give it to them he runs home with it hes more excited then they might be to get it even.

☘ : My muse’s relation with their family. (If they speak with each other and how much, if they are close or estranged, e.t.c.). 

"Family's kind of all I got so they mean everything to me. I dunno where I be with out my brothers watching out for me."

As independent Mikey wishes to be? He isn't all that great at it. I feel in part his brothers have always looked over and after him out of habit of being older than him. So he is kind of dependent on them for many things. Mikey looks up to brothers and even their friends later down the road. he is someone who can always see something to admire about others and wish he could have those traits himself and just dosen't always see what he himself offers or brings to the table. Mikey tends to think people only like home because he is always upbeat and funny. And if he isn't? then they would like that. Sometimes it's an act sometimes he has his down days where he isn't ass energetic he might wanna curl up in bed and be alone he might not want to be online. But then what would others say or think? They would think something wrong and well there isn't he just needs a moment to himself but he can't really have that without feeling like he's missing out. if he isn't involved then what?

He tends to feel this most with his brothers, he feels he has this role he needs to stick to. Might be a bit harder to hide this from them but he hopes he dose. His brothers do so much for him as is he relies on them to much already. he knows the pressures on them. Leo's always gotta keep it together he has to be focused and serious and that lets Mikey goof off. Don has to be the one to make sure things are always working with out him they just don't have any of their resources. Raph is always trying to protect them keep them together even Mikey is selfish his brothers do so much he just wants them all to have something to be selfish with as well.

[07 Don and, everyone I guess? xD it's a big announcement]

Don was giddy as he waited in the lair, standing next to something that he had covered in a white tarp. About half his height, but quite stocky in build. When everyone was finally here, Donatello proudly began to explain what the Hell was going on,

"Ladies and gentleman, and Mikey," A joke he's told a dozen of times, "I'd like to present to you-"

He grabbed the tarp, dragging it off and revealing his latest, and arguably most intricate invention of them all,

"Metalhead!"

Made of whatever metal Don had found, painted with licks of yellow paint for their plastron, and green on the shell, and with eyes glowing bright blue, the metal Turtle tilted his head, scanning the family over as they adjusted to the new brightness,

"I first drew up his blueprints back in two thousand and three, but getting all the right parts and fixing all the bugs took a little longer than expected," He admits, "Originally, he was going to help us fight the Foot Clan, but, since that's all quietened down for the most part, Metalhead is here to assist us in anyway he can."

He's beaming, similarly to how he smiled when he found out about Ariel. Don looks to the robot,

"Metalhead, please introduce yourself."

And as commanded, the robot turtle's head lifted, and addressed everyone else,

"Hello. I am Metalhead. I was created in a lab by Donatello. I am here to assist you."

"I still have a few more things to tweak, but, I thought it was about time that you met him," Don goes on, "Sooo, what do you all think?"

| Muse interaction

Donatello could for sure be on the more dramatic side, and for once Mikey didn't mean in terms of their mood or expression. Which some may think didn't quite fit when it came to the purple coded on of the four. If anything Mikey could see others thinking he was the more dramatic one in the bale. Mikey was supposedly 'over sensitive' which was rude and also wrong because Donatello was the the more dramatic one of them all. As he once more had his latest gadget, or project all ready to be shown off hidden behind a trap. With pretty much everyone Don could get to come and show this whatever off to. Just said a few things one that Donnie was in fact finished with this and two it was something they were beyond excited for. With how visibly giddy Donatello was in the moment it was hard to miss.

"Ladies and gentleman, and Mikey,"

Mikey simply stuck out his tongue towards Don's joke, he has used it many times over the years after all. So Mikey had grown used to the teasing way that Don sometimes refereed to him. Jokes on him it worked for Mikey anyway.

"I'd like to present to you-"

Everyone present in the room at that moment shifted their gazes from Donatello who was speaking to the trap as Don finally went and tugged the fabric pulling it free from the latest invention. Showing what seemed to resemble a robot turtle.

"Metalhead!"

If anyone hadn't been invested before this moment they were now that's for sure the case for Michelangelo. As the robot seemed to stare back at the small crowd. Splinter let his ears twitch slightly as he observed Don's latest build. Raphael didn't seem all that phased, arms still crossed over his plastron as he looked over the robot himself. Lameo. Summer seemed to share in Mikey's excitement as she stood near by Ariel seeming to be saying something to her as she even tugged on their sleeve and went about the robot. Eyes wide as she looked it excited because hey a real robot! Least some in the crowd could see how cool this was. But of couirse Donatlloe being Donatello he had far more to say about it all.

"I first drew up his blueprints back in two thousand and three, but getting all the right parts and fixing all the bugs took a little longer than expected,"

Mikey had checked out on the technical part of the conversation honestly hes sure most of them had slightly checked out when Donatello went on to ramble on just then and there.

"Originally, he was going to help us fight the Foot Clan, but, since that's all quietened down for the most part, Metalhead is here to assist us in anyway he can."

Mikey offers a tilt of his head catching how Don beamed suddenly, hmm that a familiar look, shifting his own gaze towards Ariel before looking back. Don's always took some extra pride in what all he invented but seems this might be the second time that pride was just a bit more. That just Mikey to smile a bit more himself. Guess the long time it took Metalhead to finally be finished was more than a simply project something with more heart put into it than Don's brain was. That would explain the need to gather this crowd to see his little bot here after all. Sure showing him, Leo and Raph made sense if it was something like Don mentioned but this was far more like a family announcement. And gathering all of them together was not easy to do these days.

Dons being a dork again. Was basically the best way to sum all of that up with.

"Metalhead, please introduce yourself."

"Hello. I am Metalhead. I was created in a lab by Donatello. I am here to assist you."

Mikey offered a wave of his friend to the robot once they spoke up, maybe it was due to hoe Don address and looked towards them but Mikey had to admit he wasn't really seeing this as like Shelltank or whatever else, in truth kind of was like the day Ariel was born. So their was a fondness settling over the turtle already.

"I still have a few more things to tweak, but, I thought it was about time that you met him,"

There's a shared glance between Raph and Mikey at that a silent little 'of course you do between them before they look back.

"Sooo, what do you all think?"

"I 'hink ya really need to work on ya to do list Don." Raphael was first to pipe in with. Happy to tease Donnie over that ever growing to do list that always made some thing be put off for later and such.

Mikey themself walked over closer to the robot for a better look "I think ya gotta work on your showmanship skill Don." Mikey chimed in with as well because of course, neither could allow their brother a moment of peace. "ya make a robot and you only put him under a trap? that's lame Dee even for you." Mikey continues with moving to throw his hands out to present the robot "I mean look at you Metal! your a robot right? That fucking awesome!" Mikey continues on to hype it all up with.

"Don't worry Mikey sure 'hat's on his to do list too" Raph adds in.

Mikey moves to be near the robot now hand on their shoulder as he looks over to Don "Tell him Metal! I want a cool introduction too!" Mikey plays along more with. Pretty sure that the robot wouldn't but right now he was annoying Donnie so that part didn't matter much.

Raphael made his way over next seems to grow more interest now in the robot "Nah Don probs tried to give poor bot some good behavior chip or whatever."

Mikey smirks "I mean I think any program can be changed right? Look at Ari after all." As if Ariel was a trouble maker at all. "Don't worry Metal auncle Mikey and uncle Raph won't let you be all stiff like your Dad." Raphael tilted his head at Mikey's comments now, not having picked up on Don's apparent parental fondness towards the robot. Looking back at them as he rub at his chin a bit. "nah I think metals safe for now," Raphael adds with picking up on the nickname Mikey was using. "Still no where near as stiff as Don is" And the teasing continues because Raph and Mikey can't truly like Don enjoy anything with out a bit of it. "Clearly Splinter didn' give ya a wooden stick as a weapon for nothin' "

Mikey snorted a little at that "We helped Ari now we gotta help Ari's brother too before it's too late! the spread of Don's geek is too strong. It's amazing Von been spared so long!" and they were ready to give in anytime soon at that.

[ducknotinarow]

Michelangelo, why did you leave your brothers for the Foot Clan? What would possess you to hurt them like that?

| Anon asks @aflockoffeathers

For someone who loved to be around other so much, Michelangelo had to admit he never saw how nice some quite and along time seemed to be a nice benefit as well. Closely looking over one of his plants leave's where some where starting to brown he quirked his beak a little and gentle set the Pruning Scissors over to the stem. So he could cut it off letting the leaf fall down as he went to cut the next. Humming softly to himself. He had to admit though this green house still could be far too quite for his own liking as he went about his care, giving this flower just a tad more extra care than he did any of the rest. One of few gifted to him from Ariel. Currently he was tending too the Lily of the valley she got for him. He was curious where she got her hands on the flowers. Not to mentions he was curious for the reason on the flowers she did bring to him. Sure it was a gift for Mikey a way to say sorry.

Not that Michelangelo felt she had a reason to be sorry for a thing that happened. Mikey had been a bit of an unaware idiot. How could he not have thought what he did would effect those around him?

No these flowers must hold a meaning she was Donatello's and Yvonne's kid after all. There was always just a bit more behind what they did. Mikey always knew that half pipe back in the lair was more than a spur of the moment gift. He always knew Von offered to partake in nail painting and giving make over in favor of answering question about being a mutant or well mostly Donatello for a reason as well. Ariel was very much like the two of them, there was just a hidden layer to their actions. Don didn't just make it cause he had the spare stuff laying around. Don would have found use for the stuff, he did it for Mikey when he was feeling down about his self worth. A way to show how much he meant to the team and more his family. Von could just ask about Don. Mikey likes giving the dirt on his brothers always has, so he figured she picked up on his struggle at the time.

it's why He looked at what the flowers gifted to him meant. Smiling as he got the last leaf cut off. He just wanted them to get a tad bit of extra set of care. Though he loved the flowers and they were a great addition to his little green house, it did carry quite whispers from the back of his mind. Why she got so upset with him. Why her emotions got the better of her. Why he has never once blamed her for how she acted or even felt at the time. If anything she was the only one to treat him in away he should for what he did.

Michelangelo, why did you leave your brothers for the Foot Clan? What would possess you to hurt them like that?

When didn't he think about this, how many times did he wait and expect one of them to say it. Left in the back of his mind to be haunted by. setting his scissors down as he resting his hands down to the surface of table he kept the potted flowers. Not quite ready to transfer them out.

"I felt so sure of myself at the time." he admits to the voice, aware the words were not just his thoughts airing out. But one of those grey faced being speaking them into exsitance. "They were all going places, doing things, starting news lives. And I felt stuck." He admits, eyes closing shut feeling himself back in that same place he was in years ago.

"I didn't...want to be left behind. I don't want be all by myself." He confesses. "Karia she was so convincing when she talked to me. Said how useful I would be. We weren't fighting them so I thought it would be fine I even made friends among them." They weren't really his friend in the end, though were they. "But the worst thing? None of them hate me for it and they should. Eve Splinter."

Setting his hands over his face rubbing the heel of his plam against his eyes. "They shouldn't have forgave me they shouldn't have let me back home. I betrayed them but they act like I didn't? Not one of them yelled or got angry for what I did. But I know I caused harm and worse they won't tell?" Mikey wasn't stupid he knew. He was so aware. He might not know the details but knowing excatly how Donatello reacted over what he did?

"Dosent matter why I did it." Because how could he ever properly express the why. It would be like he was trying to defend what he did. How can one defend such a action. Face lifting to look at the flowers before him. He loves them he dose. He knows why they were gifted and the intention. But it wasn't why he cared for them as he did.

They severed as reminders.

Remember what he did, the harm he caused. To those so close to him. That he knows he couldn't go on with if they were all suddenly gone.

03/07 Michelangelo - All Symbol Headcanons please uwu

| Send me a symbol and I will write a headcanon about…  For multimuse blogs, please specify!

MIKEY!!!! I love Mikey ;3; he's such a good character. I lowkey nah no what I Highkey absolutely hate how much fandom can or rather will initialized Mikey. Or reduce him to the comic relief of the group. Mikey is such a good character. Yeah Mikey is funny, witty and even annoying but he is very empathic. He very often is the only one who can understand where one of his brothers is coming from such as being the most aware of the burdens Leo carries that well they sort of put on him. Unlike in 2012, Leo is an unofficial leader. Mikey knows because Leo dose take to that role placed on him though it give the rest of them freedom Leo can't really have. His skill often get over looked despite the fact Mikey is actually the most athletic of his brothers he just lacks focus it's often shown and stated if he did? He would be quite the force to deal with in a fight.

𝓕 : My muse’s handwriting. (Is it good, bad, difficult to decipher, do they prefer writing by hand or with the help of some form of machine, e.t.c.) 

Mikey is for sure the more creative one of his brothers and he dose show he thinks differently than any of them do often his plans come as a surprise to the rest because of this. Of course this creative trait is due to Mikey being a free spirit and artistic to a point. Mostly his hand writing is hard to read often you can at best only make out the first letting of ever word he wrote because his brain actually thinks faster than he can react at times. When he sits and focus on writing of course he wants to make it out to look fun and pretty uwu

✈ : My muse and  traveling. (If they do it frequently and why, if they never left their home town, e.t.c.)

"Man I've been to all sorts of places, buuuuuuut clearly it's how i traveled to the top and became the battle Nexus champion!"

Mikey travels a lot but it is not by choice believe you and me. But because of a lot of things him and his brothers happened to find themselves suddenly apart of a lot of weird things. I mean hes gone to the future and other worlds but I mean furthest? has to space right?

✿ : My muse and nature. (If they are an ‘outdoorsy type’, like the sound of bird’s singing, if they have never set foot in a forest, e.t.c.) 

"Ehhh I mean its nice I guess buuuut I rather be home with the ultimate tv view experience."

Yeah Mikey is for sure a home body this is a turtle that took to the modern convince of technology and has the hardest time dealing without it. It's not he dislikes the outdoors he can take to it pretty well when he has too of course and that's the wording that should be focus on here. Mikey really likes watching tv after all and tends to find anyway todo so even skipping on training to peep in on someones else tv. But He doesn't dislike nature he loves animals and plants in fact. Luckily he was born with a green thumb even.

Mikey kind of likes that something is reliant on him and that he can make something from his own hands. Helping a plant thrive because of his care is sort of rewarding. Considering Mikey is often always being made to feel like he always the one depending on others which he dose but hardly dose his brothers seem to see him as able to do the same back. So he sort of gets that from his interest in plants.

☼ : My muse’s first memory. (Where it was, who was with them, how this memory makes them feel, e.t.c.) 

"hmm first memory? uhh I guess when I got the first comic book that got me hooked? It was an issue of Spider-Man and boy was it a fun read!" Mikey was up on the surface on Halloween, it's been said that Splinter always took the boys up on the day since they could walk around without fear or worry at the time. They stuck to a more small rural area just to be cautious still. In this neighborhood there was a lot of smaller shops so as a community they ran a sort of trick-o-treat event where kids got their candy and such from the store owners. A cookbook show was on this block and often they gave out free comic books and this is how Mikey got a lot of his comic collection started. The first he got was of course a Spider-Man Comic. A wise cracking hero? Who often distracts his villains with his smart ass mouth? Yeah someone just may have been a tad influenced.

Mikey fell in love with comic books after this he loved the stories and the plots. He wanted to be a super hero so bad. Because in the comics the humans loved heros no matter what. From humans dressed in spandex, to Aliens that took home on earth hell even mutants or meta-humans were loved by humans. So why can't that be the same for him and his family?

Of course Mikey knows being a hero comes with being selfish too and in part keeping to the shadows is something him and his family may have to do forever with no single thanks given hell even acknowledgement. Sure maybe being a hero should drive from helping but sometimes Mikey can be self severing doesn't mean he also doesn't see he has the ability to help. He often swallow his fears to step up or gets involved when he really doesn't have to. Common traits from his favorite heros.

☙ : My muse’s favourite food. (Bonus: A memory, be it good or bad, associated with said food.)

"Uh hello? Pizza?" Of course it is Pizza Mikeys favorite food to him Pizza is the best human food to ever come to be because of what all you can do with Pizaa. You don't even need to stick to marinara sauce for the base like in the case of BBQ or Chicken Alfredo Pizzas. Mikey of course like the different styles thick crust, thin crust, even stuffed. Mikey being a true Pizza lover has also tried out from Chicago style to Colorado style but of course New York style is his go to favorite. He is a new yorker through and through and they are known for having good pizza.

Mikey even likes to push the limit on what toppings he eat on a pizza and often? nothings to far out there for Mikey this boy should be on fear factor honestly.

♬ : My muse and music. (What type of music they like listening to and in what context, what music they would never listen to, e.t.c.)

"hmm I like all kinds of music really? Rap, Techno, Surf, Jimmy Buffett."

As is Mikey he is flexible on many things even when it comes to his taste in music this applies to. Mikey just likes music with energy is what it comes down to in the end. Sure Rock music is one that could fit but it's not quite the sound he is looking for he wants a more bouncy sound when he listens to music.

Mikey may be a new yorker but likes be honest this boy would thrive of Cali's vibes and just oozes the setro type of a California person. From how he talks and carries himself not to mention his Cali accent is hard to miss. Surf just ties into all of this Mikey if he could would love to surf! is why he loves to skateboard so much and loves the half pipe Donnie made just for him. He wants so badly to catch the waves! Sometimes when he's skating in the Sewer tunnels and theirs some water on the ground he likes to imagine hes out on the ocean.

↺ : My muse and the past. (Do they live in the past and struggle to let go of past grievances, or move on more easily, is there anything in their past they want to forget, e.t.c.) 

"live in the past? Why do that and why worry about whats to look forward too? Nah all about the now and current vibes" This might sound like good advice but in truth Mikey actively tries to avoid the past and all the mistakes that follow. So you can say there is a lot he wants to forget he likes to cherry pick in a sense one could say. Winning the Battle Nexus? Of course he remembers that and hangs on to even seeing it as the real only achievement he has ever been able to make happen which has been an issue seeing as he rode the high of the win for a long time even to a point Splinter saw an issue with Mikey's egos due to the win.

Mikey also isn't the best about thinking about looking ahead it fills him with anxiety in truth because he just doesn't know. It's like he is being surround by mountains of work and all he can do is focus at those peaks and how high they reach. He has no clue where to start because its just all to much.

Going where he is now? it's easier he can sort of tell whats going to happen. Him and brothers will wake for breakfast. Hell annoy Raph as they make their way to the kitchen where Leo is likely already at. Don will follow soon lured by the smell of coffee that Raph got ready for them. Mikey will start on breakfast and then They will head to the dojo and train once clean up is over. Don will go back to his lab to work, Leo may do some one on one work with Splinter, Raph might stay home or sneak away up top. Maybe its junkyard day and they head out to look for stuff. It may be friday so Mikey will call up April and such to see who wants to join movie night. some things change here and there but over all it's the same and he take comfort in all of this.

Even when things changes routines are still there, Don and Raph move out and have kids but they come by and Mikey gets to play the babies. The whole family still gets together here and there it just easier to live in his current point. It often why his mistakes can catch up to him like his mistake of joining the foot clan. Donnie asked him about his future and it set him off. He struggles with who he is and what use he even has with his family looking to the past is littered with mistakes but to the future is uncertain and open ended answers.

☾ : My muse and sleep. (How much they sleep, how much they wish to sleep, if there is something that never fails to put them to sleep, e.t.c.) 

"Gotta get those z's every now and then, early to sleep early to rise or stay up late to get more time." Mikey is someone who goes to bed at a somewhat decent time it just kind of depends. he always likes to settle down with a movie or comic and tends to pass out when his eyes have tried out this isn't always the same time every night. Sometimes hes out early sometimes hes out late. He doesn't have much trouble sleeping unless there's a lot of noise like the times he had to share a room with Raph who snores loud. But to everyone one annoyance I feel no matter how tried Mikey is? He don't have an off switch he can always seem to just get a second wind and be well Mikey.

✧ : My muse and art. (If they have an artistic side or not and why, favourite artist if they have one, e.t.c.) 

"I love it! well I mean I like street art at least and painting my skateboards, so i got a few for that reason."

Mikey loves art but he's not versed in it's history type of art lovers. So he doesn't know the classics he knows him and his brothers were named after artist but he doesn't known much about them just that they were old artist guys in the past but will make reference to his name sake at times. Art isn't a big thing for him he's always colored with crayons as a kid and ate them of course. Like to give some character to things such as the decks of his boards and he has tried his hand at nail art. Something that improves over time if he has the right supplies that is of course.

❃ : My muse and social media. (If the muse is/would be on social media and why/why not, their general opinion on it, e.t.c.) 

"Course I use it, how I find out about comic releases and catch up on story lines."

Mikey was able to see the start of alot of more know Socials today. He had an account on friendster mostly for the games later on till it shut down. He had a myspace and loved to customize his profile with all sorts of widgets.Hasn't touched it in years! He went on to forums mostly and 4chan of course for comics so he could track down issues he was search for and there was always someone online who could offer help on how to get it. He's part of a few online friend circles from comics books to people who have seen glimpses of the turtles and talk about it online, he thinks it's funny and sometimes messes with them. He'll see them pick up common locations they spot them and will go there to just give them more to share. It's a harmless prank on his end and something he keeps to himself he don't need his brothers ruin his fun after all.

Mikey also has a twitter account mostly for comic related stuff but he likes to post pictures of the weird stuff in New York most people know weird creatures come around in the city since the Tricerton Invasion so it's harmless.

✉  : My muse and others. (If they social and outgoing or more introverted, and why. If they prefer communicating with others face to face or in written form, e.t.c.). 

"I love meeting new people! Those other turtle can be tots annoying sometimes ya know? Gotta shake it up."

Mikey is very social if he dosen't vibe with someone right off the bat there usually a good reason even monstrous creatures like Leatherhead or Quarry where Mikey understandable was scared of them when first meeting them. Was able to see the good in Leatherhead and try to befriend him and soon saw Quarry wasn't like the other mutants if annoyed by how much of a scardy cat they could be ironic considering himself. Or like with April where he was first to openly speak to her with out any hesitation. Mikeys pretty good about befriending anyone really shown when it comes to the superhero charaters in the show. Mikey was able to Befriend Sliver Sentry with ease even with them feeling he was getting in the way and even the more aloof Nobody. His friendly welcoming nature just seems to be a natural draw for a lot of people no mater the species.

Dosen't mean he gets along with everyone he meets but he can at least up to points stand some people a be a bit more tolerable. Takes a special someone to be annoying to mikey *cough* Casey *cough*

Mikey is just very very social and he craves interaction because of it. Which can get annoying for his older brothers who are all more independent and such. Mikey will often just go into a room with one of them and linger about of course not quietly he just needs to be around someone is all. Like when hell go into Don's lab and rant on about something stupid in his comics he knows they aren't listening or care much he just likes that Don will let him do it. He loves spending time with his brothers the most, so those Friday night movies are always his favorite.

When it comes to talking Mikeys prefers it be face to face. Likely due to him having a lot of empathy for others it just easier for him to gauge the other person's feelings. Written or text is hard for him to convey a tone from. Hearing their voice, seeing their face? He just feels the best way to communicate is face to face. This is also why he is willing to step back from Ariel when she got upset with him and wait for her to come to him. He wouldn't have that talk any other way with her. It's why he and Summer never had this blow up her Dad's made sure to make her feel she can express her thoughts after all and in a way she has taken one some traits from Mikey because of this. So they had their own talk she knows Mikey regrets what he did and knows how torn up over it he is as well. It why he dose the same with each of his brothers when serious things come up those one on one talks are just too important.

▶ : My muse and level of education. (If the muse has some form of education, what education they perhaps wish they had, e.t.c.). 

"uhhh I mean whatever Splinter teaches me I guess?"

And yet Mikey isn't even the worse of Splinters students. Mikey is for sure that kid who learns in a different way than most. He has the most raw talent out of his brothers and he knows the same things they do like Chi Gong breathing techniques when they went to space. But as show during the Ninja tribunal season Mikey is a active learner being told how to do something or reading it doesn't work he man retain the information like when he and Splinter were dealing with mr.touch and mr. Go he showed he could in fact use his mind when it came to a fight and come up with some good plans. He just has to apply it in ways he can understand.

◐ : My muse and animals. (If they like animals and treat them well, do not care for them at all, e.t.c.). 

"I love animals I don't know what I do with out Klunk and Klunk jr."

Mikey is a lover of cute animals one could say like cats and Chickens of course like Sonny and Cher ;3; Mikey is also a sucker for his pet cat Klunk who is for sure Mikey's furbaby. Klunk knows hes got a nice gig in the lair so never strays far from them and for sure has kept other rats away from getting into the lair since they got a cat around. He often lets his brothers pet him or sets him on thier laps because he knows animals are good for mental health. Which is why he is so attached Klunk became her emotional support animal after some time. And im sure as you can tell by a mention in his comment there is a second Klunk in his life.

Sadly even with the life of luxray Klunk lived with the turtle Klunk wasn't going to live forever. Based on color alone I would say Klunk is and orange Tabby and they can live for 20 years at the latest. Most only 10 to 16 years. Roughly well say it was 2004 when Mikey found Klunk whoe was just a kitten at the time so Klunk could live and be around a god long while. And as BTTS showed Klunk was still around then. But not in the 07 movie and based on how I sor tof timeline things here 03 -> 07 -> FF/BBTS (?) this would in a way make a gap with out a cat and just hit harder on Mikey being lonely. But Klunk was a alley cat in a sense and was free to roam as they got bigger. Met female cat and Im sure you can see where I leading to. Mikey soon finds a cat that looks just like Klunk and take them in as Klunk jr.

❒ : My muse and gifts. (If they are good/bad at finding gifts, good/bad at receiving gifts, good/bad at wrapping gifts, e.t.c.) 

"I mean I love getting them that for sure."

I feel Mikey is pretty decent at giving gifts hell recall something someone said they liked before and come across something similar like say April mentioned as a kid she loved a certain character and Mikey happens across something of that old character so he brings it to her. It was a passing comment but he tends to hang on to that information.

☘ : My muse’s relation with their family. (If they speak with each other and how much, if they are close or estranged, e.t.c.). 

"I love them really all there is to say on that, I know my brothers and I fight. I know they fight. I know we make mistakes but...I also know we always have each other and always will have each other." Mikey is the baby of his family through and through and sometimes it can be annoying since his brothers often look at him as younger. Sure over time they learn to see him on their own level. and even seems to earn their respect. Mikey dose look up to all of his brothers in different ways and for different reasons and in a way he sort of idolizes them.

Don kind of Spoils Mikey because he dose give into thier whims a lot and its kind of made Mikey feel Don can fix anything from whatever tech issue is going on to other problems as well like when Mikey is feeling Don it's Donnie he goes to. Mikey needs interaction so bad or he gets kind of down and Donnie is the less likely to be annoyed with him so he fixes Mikey in a sense.

Raph and Mikey can have a sort of love hate relationship. Mikey being the annoying little brother and Raph the disgruntle older one. Mikey dose know Raph cares about him and knows he will protect him and look out for him. Raph can mess with Mikey but anyone else tries? They are dead.

Leo Ive said it alot here but Leo is who Mikey is closest to. Leo is often the only one who dose have faith in Mikey's abilities and acknowledges his talents but often has to be stern and tell mikey to focus. Mikey loves heros and to him Leo is his own personal hero for those reasons alone and it's why he listens to Leo not to mention why he is so close to them.

Splinter He is dad and Mikey is good about listening to his Dad sometimes. Mikey dose sometimes feel he isn't always measuring up well compared to his brothers and must be failing his dad. But he feels close enough to express these worries to Splinter they have a very good relationship and Mikey spends hours talking to Splinter. They often crack jokes together honestly they might be an awful combo because of Splinters savage ways.

Casey is the one person in the world that can actually annoy Mikey and that is a thing to say XD However Mikey dose see Casey as another big brother of his sometimes his favorite outside Leo. Cause Casey will often listen to Mikey's complaints seriously unlike his brothers will. If he whines about not being able to find a comic Casey suggests a place that may just have it and offer to take him. Casey also tends to play along with Mikey's antics at times very much how an adult will be wowed by a younger kids statements to match their energy. But Casey pretty much a big kid himself it's why he can match Mikeys energy it seems. its why he trs to be there for Casey during the break up.

Yvonne is someone you might think wouldn't get along to well with mikey due to her serious nature but she is Mikeys gal pal. They like to trash talk over whine and watch chick flicks. They have girls night along with April and later the girls when they are teens. Von is also kind of the branch that helped Mikey more embrace his feminine side shes kind of like a safety net in a sense. Because she has a habit of needing to use example and such it helps mikey see that him feeling like he genderfuild is not werid and dosen't make him different its just another thing that make him Mikey. He was one of two who really wanted him to get together with Don but because it meant she would be his sister.

Summer/Ariel- Ill drive more into stuff on Summers answers but over all Mikey loves his nieces and used to take part in kidnapping them both when they were babies. Often the last option as babysitter but it was more like playdates. he might be thier uncle/aunt/auncle but it follows more th logic of im the older kid between them. Mikey always had very good friendships with the both of them. He's sort of like this break from adults because like what Casey did for him i feel he dose for his nieces offers them someone they can talk to in a way they can't other adults. It why he was shocked by Ariels turn on him he just felt everything was fine because as stated Mikey is someone who needs to talk to know whats going on but Ariel is too much like her own parents and it didn't help that everyone seemed to just mov eon from everything. So when she snapped at him sudeenly of course it hurt him a lot. He didn't know how much what he did would effect her nor was he ware how it affected Don. He loves her and of course wanted to fix it but because he loves her he gave her the space she seemed to need at the time. Dose make him wonder if they were as close as he thought they always were.

‘Donnie Boy’

“Mostly me just me making a play on the term Sonny boy since we tend to use nicknames over our full names though but well I guess there is some double meaning on my end on why I pick that for my purple brother. who just also happens to be secretly talented and just happens to be a person who makes our lives brighter. SO yeah Donny boy fit’s him even if Don’s stupid and doesn’t seem to see that all the time.”

One of the little mermaid movies, there’s some snacks on the coffee table in front of them the photo taken from behind the couch when Mikey leaned over the back of the couch arm thrown over their shoulder so he could tug Don in closer so their is a bit of Mikey in frame as well. Taken as ‘proof’ that Donatello can in fact relax and not die.

“I don’t care much for the little mermaid movie myself but I maybe seen them more than some of my own favorites, Don need’s to learn to relax and if that means marathoning the little mermaid movies with him I don’t mind BUT I am gonna tease him when ever Von is around and reference it a lot. Hey I’m the little bro it’s my job.”

07 [image description]: Don holding baby Ariel a few day’s after she was born you can see nothing but how the purple banded turtle seems to be glowing with both but pride and love for the little creature in his arms.

“Don’s invented and created so many amazing things over all the years but I think Ari is his greatest one, besides I know better than anyone just much Do always waited and long for that exact moment. I always knew deep down he make a good Dad, Gus’s I ain’t as dumb as the others try to say I am.”

Brother Mine by Suzanne Vega

Now I know that you're just my little brother

And I don't expect you to get everything just right

But I think you ought to use a little more sense than what you're using

And maybe then things would be all right,

Yes, and maybe then thing would be all right.

“I guess mine may be backwards butI dunno I hear this song and I can’t help but think about my brother when it comes to me? I know Don just worries about me at best heck he worries about all of us if anything. But I know he has the most at ice with me at times and well” he trails off growing a tad bashful not having the words to explain more “Oh but yeah this is why I made his name Donny boy connects in the end!”

[03 Raph/Mikey and Don]

It was clear they were all tired, all for various reasons. For Don, he had been up nearly five days now, working on some project he refused to open his beak about until done. With bags under his eyes, clearly exhausted, he just about manages a grumble as he drags himself into the kitchen and straight to his beloved coffee pot.

It was all a pretty average morning, until Don knocked over his mug of coffee. Thankfully nothing broke, nor did any of the still steaming liquid get on him, but it was still enough for him to give a loud, tired sigh as he stared at the mess he now had to deal with. After a moment, he can be heard huffing tiredly,

“I’m joining the Foot Clan.”

Well, it was about time he started his villain arc.

| Muse interaction

Mikey was letting his head rest on the top of the kitchen table. even mister rise and shine was letting tiredness effect him. As he slightly mumble out over to Raphael and Leo, Mikey wasn't all to sure what he was saying himself he knew when Raph didn't smack the side of his head though was a clear sign the red banded turtle was just as tried himself. They all been wrapped up in their own things dragging out for days and leaving them as nothing more then shells of themselves. Mikey slowly turned his head so chin was resting to the table instead, he should maybe move to get up eventually and at least make them like eggs or something. Eggs were easy. Looking over towards his brothers all mulling about in the kitchen themselves. Could tell Mikey wasn't the only one yearning for bed. Only reason they were all forcing to be up was because they had a father who insisted on a routine to keep too. Morning training, and evening training. Outside those they were partly free to do as they wished. Both good and bad depending how they all took advantage of this fact.

Leo, ever discipline student he was. Did extra training especially when he felt he wasn't getting something right. Been up for five days trying to figure out one of the newest katras Sensie was teaching them lately. Raph? nah he just been out busy every night with Casey something about some Purple Dragon string of crimes going on lately, guess they got one to squeal and fess up so they be putting a stop to a lot of their work. It show with how slow he was moving in training lately. Don been coop up in his lab working away on some new project. Meaning he was skipping sleep to make up for the time lost on needing to eat, and train. Mikey? He would love to say his time getting to help with the justice force was why he was tried going in under the guise of his hero identity 'The Turtle Titan' but nah he was able to get his hands on a brand new game thanks to Casey. And been playing it late hours into the night. It was all he could think about. Which got him into some hot water with Sensei since his focus wasn't one training in the slightest.

Mikey finally moves to sit up when he see Don dragging himself in at last, grumbling under their breath about their project they had yet to really tell any of them about. Meant it was something cool normally. Donnie always saved the cool stuff as top secret after all.

"Up for scrambled?" Mikey soon pipes up with, taking the groans as a fine. Yawn escaped him as he moved to stand up and make his way over to the fridge now.

Splinter would be shuffling in soon, so Mikey already started making a mental note of how many eggs he would need. Don was already starting on his coffee, so that just meant he would get extra than normal so his stomach more full. Leo would need a bit lighter severing or he might feel too full and sick during morning training. Raph always ate bigger serverings but with all the extra calories he's been burning? Yeah Mikey was gonna need about a dozen and half eggs for breakfast. Mikey thought to himself.

clink

Mikey wasn't all too phased by the sound ignoring it. They were all pretty good about being able to notice any kind of sound thanks to their unique hearing. Paying a glance towards Raph, who didn't react, so he figured it was fine. He just gestures to them to give him a pan. Raph just eyes him confused, growling when all Mikey dose is contuine to mime out, moving a pan across the stove. Raphael growled slightly, arms thrown out from their folded hold in front of.

"What the fuck are ya sayin' ya got a mouth for a reason!" Raphael snapped with finally, extra angry when running on little to no sleep.

"A frying pain stupid!"

" 'han fuckin' say hand me the fryin' pan!"

"I'm tried! I figured ya smart enough to know what a frying pan is!"

"Hiw is that a fryin-"

“I’m joining the Foot Clan.”

Mikey and Raphael never shut their beaks quite as fast as they did in that moment of Donatello making his statement. Attetions left thier fight as they turned to look at Donatello.

"Jeez, I know Raph an Ass Don, but you ain't gotta leave we get rid of him instead."

Raphael glared at Mikey before looking back to where Don was at as he moved to stand beside Don ready to see what was going on only to pause suddenly. Michaelangelo watched Raphael shake his head and rubs his hand over his face.

"For fuck sake Don it's just coffee" Raphael threw out once he was the small bit of coffee on the counter "ya jus' a fuckin' drama queen I swear." Turning on his heels to give and grab the pan for Mikey finally.

"Think Don needs more eggs he's getting outta hand again," Mikey tosses in, taking the pan from Raph once he comes over.

"Jeez, ya know I told Casey how Don's the dramtic one he didn't buy it swore it was you."

Mikey soon laughed over that he wasn't offened cause yeah he could see why but "me? The dramtic one? Not long as Donnies around he would been great for Broadway with how he can get." Mikey idly states as Raph chuckles a bit. Fight long forgotten since they make fun of Donatello now instead.

[ducknotinarow]

[2k3 Mikey or Raph - or both they’re both obnoxious xD]

It’s always said that Raph was the red Turtle of the family, but it seems like Donatello may be taking that title soon. His face was stained with a scarlet blush, while darker red smudges of lipstick decorated his beak and the sides of his neck. One would think he’d have the brain power to wash it off, considering he owned the brain cells of the family, and yet, there he was, strolling out of his bedroom and into the kitchen without a care in the World. Maybe he didn’t care, maybe he hadn’t noticed, or maybe he was too dumb and lost walking on cloud nine to realise other people had eyes and could see him,

“Good morning,” he greeted his brothers, heading straight to the coffee pot, “Sorry I missed last nights training, I was busy.”

Very busy from the looks of it.

Shell to the countertop, he looked at his brothers, simply waiting a moment. It took a good second for him to really acknowledge the look he was getting,

“Is there something on my face…?”

| Muse interaction

Raphael, felt like his bones and muscles were aching all over yet he still made his way to the bathroom, so he could splash water on to his face. Letting it run cold for the shock to help wake him up. Mikey soon stumbled in a few seconds after Raph dramatically groaning as he dragged his feet no that he had an audience to display his current state towards. Raph just gruffed when Mikey made his way to the sink, Raph shuffling over as he watched the youngest turtle fill the sink up with water, as he went about moving his hand band off from his shoulder where it was resting and move to set it in place over his face. oddly curious as Mikey took hold of either side of the sink before he shoved his own face into the sink of icy water. Mikey's body filched and jolted suddenly as he threw his head back and breathed out heavily. Leaving Raphael to just stare at the youngest of them all and question pretty much everything about them in that same second.

"idiot." is all he finally says shaking his head as he moves to head out towards the kitchen now.

Mikey bounding on his heels, moving his own mask to cover over his eyes now, smiling bright as if he hadn't just shoved his head in the sink. Jogging to keep pace beside Raphael already buzzing with chatter. It was sometime amazing how much one turtle could talk in a single breath. Raphael thought over as he made his way to the kitchen, rubbing at the side of his head he had no idea where all of Mikey's energy just came from but jeez even after the late night training they went through guy was just as wired as ever. Leo was already in the kitchen it seemed himself.

"fuckin' early risers." Is all he grumbles under his breath as he slightly still listening to Mikey slightly switching to telling Leo morning before going back to what ever he was rambling on to Raph again.

Jeez how do they do it, they went through the same long night training. Raphael's eye felt so heavy, part of him debated just going back to bed for another good couple of hours. Then again Mikey and Leo always seemed up and ready the second the day started. Leo just got a early start all the time meanwhile Mikey? just seemed to never have a off switch. Only Donnie seemed to share in being more of a night owl like Raph. He blinks a little at the thought of his twin suddenly, turning to look towards the coffee pot. Doesn't look like it been used at all? Pot was clean and there wasn't any water in the reservoir either? Lifting up where the ground went and he saw the lack of a filter in there..

"anyone see Don 'atey?" He asks over his shoulder, A bit of concern in his tone.

As they all took a moment to think about it themself Raph went and got the pot ready to go out of habit, thinking about the questions himself. When did he last seen Don yesterday? They pointed out he didn't show up to their training but figured he been in his lab the whole night. But if the coffee pot hadn't been touched once since the day before? Yeah they didn't need to check if he was in the lab per say. That was enough to know Don wasn't around. Which could be a bad thing, his ears must been burning however because he seemed to find his way into the kitchen at the right moment. All eyes on Don but not because of a collective relief.

“Good morning,”

Raphael felt a elbow against his side as he looked to Mikey who pointed to his own face then at Don's direction as he made his way in to the coffee pot and right next to Raph and Mikey asking for his doom with that move alone. How could Raphael not notice? all the clear and obvious red lip stained marks covering Don's face in the moment.

“Sorry I missed last nights training, I was busy.”

Oh Donatello really needed to watch what he said as Raph and Mikey shared a look between them at the just now. Mikey moved to take the space beside Don's left well Raph stayed where he was moving to fold his arms over his chest smirking with that very well known chuckle of his. Mikey Standing on the other side as they both leaned in a bit when Don turns around coffee mug filled and shell resting back to the counter. When he seems to take notice for once of anything going on. Left between Raph and Mikey clearly looking over the kiss mark coating his skin that Don seemed to not be aware was on his face in that moment

“Is there something on my face…?”

"Ya dude jeez Raph I think Don's looking to steal your color from you."

Raph just hummed in thought over that remark "Ya know Mikey, might 'et have it, mean look at 'em." Raph states as he grabs and pinches Don's cheeks between his fingers. "Really stand out on him doncha agree?"

"oh very much so it just really brings out his eyes too" Mikey tosses in smiling at Donnie

"ya should really tell Von 'hanks Don, she found the 'ight color for you it seems." Raph teases finally letting go of of their cheek.

Mikey offering Donatello a spoon left in the sink to use as a mirror to let them see the kiss marks left painted all over his face still. "Might wanna wash ya face first thing in the morning too. I mean Aa lady ain't meant to kiss a tell Donnie."

"Well a lady might not" Raph starts with fixing Donnie with a firm smirk as he jabs a thumb at them "Donnie on the other hand? sure seems ready to broadcast 'hat kept 'em busy all 'ight." Followed by a well know 'wolf whistle' on Mikey's end, years spent watching those old cartoons paying off for this single moment alone.

"Oh no Donnie" hands to his face as he fakes shock their way " Donnie no not our sweet boy Raphie, it's too soon. Have you even had the talk with Sensei about that yet?"

It was going to be a long morning at Raph and Mikey continued on to tournament poor Donnie. Raphael suddenly wide awake now working at Don's expense as he was left to deal with their banter. Both grabbing on to one of his arms so he could just leave. Well even if he did break free they would follow him.
