[Image Description: Art of a tiny, wiggly, purple eastern style serpentine dragon, draped around someone’s hands like a particularly unruly ferret. It’s two sets of teeny tiny wings likely not yet large enough to properly fly. It’s also got tiny golden eyes, golden accents, tiny & not yet solid antenae-like golden horns, & a poofy feather-like purple & golden gradient tip on its tail.
It’s clutching one gold coin to its chest with one tiny clawed hand, & with it’s other hand reaching down toward a new coin on the table from where the tiny dragon’s being held gently enough to wiggle for such a reach.
And of course, here’s screenreader friendly links to the screenshotted story post, first one is for speech to text users, second one is for tapping on:
World’s Tiniest Dragon Story
End of image description.]
Asdfghjkl your drawings are always so adorable.
Could we get a tiny dragon?

He’s just a baby
#I vaguely remember hearing this story before myself#It’s a super cute spin on how dragon hoards work#🥰#Folklore Stuff#But what if scary thing was a friend is my favorite brand of modern folklore#& this one does it in a way that also harkens back to some of the classic non-western creatures that just like#Aren’t actively hostile but cause wierd problems sometimes lol#Like Yokai#The solution is to coexist 👌#Also eastern dragons themselves though they tend to be more intimidating than this teeny tiny fella#Cute lil noodle 🤭#💞💞💞✨#Described#💝

I simply can't imagine Zuko and Katara interacting with aliens or UAPs.#So instead we've got spirits (like in ATLA!) and yokai (humans whose souls became corrupted and vengeful after suffering a traumatic death)

What are your headcanons for older Okarun?
here he isss
#takakura ken#dandadan#future au#my art#not sure if his yokai form would stick around but let's just pretend it does#or just take it as like. a what if sort of thing#also. momo calling him ken bc yeah. i think she'd also say ken kun or ken chan just to mess w him#once she got over her takakura ken phase at least. but i think she'd stick with okarun for the most part

I bet raph goes like 🤯 whenever April go big sis mode but Donnie AND leo snickers at his reaction as well.
Bro is NOT prepared for the little brother treatment!
#being the oldest sibling in the family#plus being expected to act mature and handle a lot of responsibilities from a very young age#PLUS being way bigger than most kids his age even amongst yokai where there is a lot of diversity in the way that people look#has led to Raph being VERY unfamiliar with being treated like the kid he is for a very long time now#get babied idiot#Tiz Sep AU#tizel talk#tizel art#my art#digital art#tmnt#rottmnt#teenage mutant ninja turtles#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt au#raphael#april o'neil#leonardo#donatello#rottmnt raph#rottmnt april#rottmnt leo#rottmnt donnie

One of the funniest parts about the whole “Leo not giving Draxum any grace” idea is that Draxum is one of the ONLY notable older men in the show that Leo isn’t willing to give a proper second chance to OR really hear out in the first place.
No seriously it’s genuinely a Thing.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#rottmnt headcanons#the men I’m thinking of specifically are as follows#marcus moncrief? very quickly just went along with anything he said#then repeating this AGAIN later#(Leo also refers to him as a father figure before ever actually meeting him lol)#piel? Leo happily greets and immediately offers his (and Hueso’s) help to the ex pirate#this is largely due to Leo’s own brother problems but it’s still a part of this trend#hypno? Leo literally stops fighting him to watch his magic act lol plus he helps Warren save him#if we count other older men then the list grows to continue the following#Tim Dunkman? Leo notably does his best to do good in Tim’s eyes#apologizing earnestly to Tim even when it’s not his fault even#and this is another older man Leo refers to as a surrogate father#Leo also quickly falls for the evil hair Yokai Masseur’s lies despite the bad vibes he got#Leo also was the main one who went easy on Bullhop#and let’s not forget Señor Hueso and Leo’s strong attachment to him despite Hueso’s consistent insults and annoyance#like even WARREN gets Leo’s sympathy and assistance when they all helped him get Hypno back#you can even argue that Leo WAS willing to hear Draxum out when they first met#and Leo assumed Draxum was surrendering before the whole ‘BARON DRAXUM DOES NOT SURRENDER’ thing#hell he’s not even antagonistic really to Draxum he just doesn’t really like him#he’ll listen to his advice if necessary#anyway this being a fairly consistent character trait of Leo’s is funny to me#it’s always specifically older men too - Big Mama does NOT get anything but immediate suspicion#not all of them but most of the ones Leo has specific interactions with are like this#I’m just saying!!! Splinter I love you dearly but your boys have Issues™️#anyway each of the boys has something like this going on#Leo’s are just weirdly consistent and happen a lot for a two season show

I often think about how incredibly fit Natsume must be, yokai-induced sickliness aside. He spends 75% of his life running from yokai, through forests and mountains and all kinds of shit. Every day is a marathon for him, he arguably gets too much exercise (which might contribute to collapsing from exhaustion a lot. over exercising isn't good for you).
But imagine what a fast runner he must be. He's able to sometimes lose yokai despite their supernatural speed etc. And he's been doing this since he's a child? I just want an episode where it's time for track in gym class and everyone's expecting the kid who's constantly sick and exhausted to be the slowest one, but instead he just passes them all at warp speed. WHEN did he have time to get this in shape, isn't he always inches away from keeling over, his class in chaos. Nishimura and Kitamoto are the least surprised since they've seen him running before, but even they didn't think he was THIS fast., wow, what natural talent.
Actually, there should be a running gag where one of the many stressors Natsume faced over the years is track team coaches trying to constantly recruit him in most of the schools he goes to, so he's constantly trying to hide how fast he is because he can't be a burden and have the people he's living with PAY SPORTS EXPENSES omg :(( and also he wouldn't be able to show up for most of the meetings, so. And also he doesn't like most team sports (the real reason).
He's managed to keep it mostly under wraps in Yatsuhara, but then one day it's the sports day episode and Nishimura trips while carrying the baton as they always do and starts crying so Natsume's like "siiiiiiiigh fine don't worry Nishimura I've got this" and suddenly he's at the finish line. Thus his hellish lot of being hounded by the track coach begins anew, thanks a lot Nishimura.
#once again thinking about an element of a show has spun off into fanfic land somehow#natsume's book of friends#ok what if during the sports day episode there's even a yokai in the way and he has to vault over it and everyone's like what#why did he jump so high there#and now the gymnastics team is interested too#natsume yuujinchou#takashi natsume#i'm actually surprised there's never been a natsume sports day episode#assuming it hasn't been covered in the manga yet#they had a school festival one#hire me to write it#natsume takashi

I like how Dandadan sets the audience up to think Turbo Granny is just a pervert because she chases men, taunts them obscenely and steals their dicks and it seems played for entirely just freaky shock comedy until the reveal that she's (spoiler and content warning)
A yokai acting on the aimless collective wrath of multiple rape and murder victims (who form their own ghost that considers her its grandma) :(
#SA mention#go grandma?????????#I mean she's one of those yokai that carries out the same punishment on just anyone in the wrong place at the wrong time#but like that's never really that kind of spirit's fault per se you know like the Slit Mouth Woman and stuff#anime#dandadan#I KNEW there had to be SOMETHING because this is just how it is with Japanese ghosts

CLOACA CREW RERUN
#i really like these three together#blade is the beating gem in the centre of it all. he has an earring pal on either side#they r so............ hole#(do not think about the schrodingers hole that is blade's automaton handcrafted butt)#i remember when this event first ran#i believe i was rather sulky at the appearance of SR yakumo#not just because it's SR yakumo. and it's generally yakumo#but mostly because it meant that there would be no yokai triple threat event#because the way the chars were lining up in their event gaps... oh the delusional hope i held#but thanks to the quick thinking of zookeeper au conjurers#i realised... that i may not have a puppyfoxsnake event . no.#but i have something with its own charm. its own magic. and that is the cloaca havers together in One Event#pissing together holding hands in adjacent stalls#taking copious notes together. TOO MANY notes. incredibly thorough annotations with size 0.11111 font#all 6 of their observational eyeballs (8 if you count blade's glasses) will witness and archive the fall of the universe#if eiden's there we reach double digit eyeball power observations#but until eiden gets there (he is running late)#we will sit in the room with these three. and they shall connect the dots as One#puzzling investigation#nu carnival yakumo#nu carnival blade#nu carnival rei#CLOACA CREW
