One of the earliest examples of Leo’s “I’ll do my own thing to accomplish our goal without discussing it with my team first” is in episode one. It’s super, super quick, and ultimately inconsequential, but it subtly sets up a great precedent that I think is very interesting.

When the boys need to grab the medallion from Splinter without Splinter noticing, Raph, Mikey, and Donnie huddle together with Raph taking the lead in trying to devise a plan to get the mystic device. Meanwhile, Leo slinks away and grabs the device by clocking the situation (by knowing his father well enough to predict his actions - something he does with each family member multiple times in the series) and making a move on his own.

It works out perfectly fine, and is ultimately the best move, and it’s honestly okay that he didn’t consult everyone for something so small when it’s such a non issue to get it, but it nicely sets up how this tends to go in the series, including how it goes in the movie.

To be honest episode one is actually really good at setting up a lot of things for each character in the long run, this is just one example that caught my attention, as small and unassuming as it is.

something tells me that burning spice was the one attacking her instead of just “regular cookies who wanted to attack her randomly one day because there were treasures in her cocoon.” they’re possible followers of burning spice? or little manifestations that he possibly made.

I love characters who are loyal like a dog, this is true. But do you know what drives me insane? When the person they're loyal to sees that loyalty and doesn't even acknowledge it. To them the character is much more than what they can be used for or what they can do, they barely even see how much the character wants to be sent to hunt or to protect. All they see is their friend/lover/family/whatever else they are defined as. Even if the character tries to explain how they feel their person of interest is like "?? You are already useful (or you don't have to be useful), you are the object of my affections and you are great at doing that, there's no need for you to do anymore !" And the character just doesn't understand, they don't know how to believe that and I just aifhjfbkfhdidj

So, I just binged all of your Ewe AU content and I have to know- you mentioned how long it took for Lamb and Nariander to get together- were they together when they found Ewe? If so, how long was she trapped for? I probably just misread something, but I do love me some angst.

Thankfully for you, my friend, loving angst is something you and I both have in common.

Narinder and the lamb were indeed together when they found Ewe! Happily married for a few years, in fact, after some drama and strife during the lengthy time that you mentioned. As for finding Ewe, it started with a key that the lamb had found with seemingly no match (they tried doors, chests - anything and everything with a lock - with no luck). At a loss, Narinder recommended asking the Mystic Dealer, partly due to the key’s winged design.

The Mystic Dealer confirmed it was a special key that could only be used if you already knew where its matching door led, which happened to be a sort of…”pocket dimension” (usually used to hide and stow treasure or any number of valuable things). On the other side of the newly-formed door was a lush-looking clearing, surrounded by woods similar to Darkwood, with a storehouse at its center.

This place was untouched by time, but time still seemed to pass. And that is where Ewe had been waiting, unable to escape, starve, grow old, or die. She fell into a catatonic state, already worn by the devastating sight of all her fellow sheep being dragged away to unknown fates, convinced she was doomed to reside in her prison for all eternity.

Trying out a mix of my own style and the game's. I can't seem to get Narinder to look quite the way I want him to, because of course that precious bastard cat has to be difficult. >:\ I was expecting the Bishops to be a lot harder to draw, but they were pretty cooperative. Ratau, on the other hand...man, fuck that little dude. I redrew him five times and I still don't like how he looks. >:[

I decided to take a few creative liberties with what Leshy and Shamura are wearing under their cloaks. Mostly because I find it funny to ban Leshy from freeballing down there, and also because I wanted to incorporate the many bandages Shamura has for their eldritch form in some way.

ALSO I GAVE THE APPROPRIATE ANIMALS BACK THEIR TAILS BECAUSE BOTH THEY AND WE WERE ROBBED D:<

Oh, right, and there's this weirdo, too

In the full file of all these goobers together, they're judging everyone else with that look.

I should have been asleep hours ago BYE

Cult of the Lamb doodle dump!

Just a collection of drawings I've made but haven't posted yet!

My shittens for beloved mutual Serv

Art below is of eldritch forms, so TW forrr... body horror and gore(?) !!! OH also mild eyestrain!

This first one is kinda lazy but it was me trying to doodle and figure out the difference! In my AU, when he was younger Narinder would have his face split very often because of the amount of power his crown holds + the fact that he's really emotional. Hence- yk, why my Nari design has the permanent scar!

This is the current planned Lamb eldritch form, made as a doodle with friends when we were all showing them off! Of course, nothing is canon until it's written in the fic, but as of rn I'm p sure this is the design I'll go with! Not the colors, ofc- that was just me using a limited color palette for fun :]

Bonus, since you came down here, a doodle of Nari and Webber!

So I'm replaying Ray's After ending rn, and it got me thinking that what I adore so much about Rika as an antagonist is just how damn scary she can be. I always found those who cause harm with good intentions (at least in their point of view) much scarier than those who hurt you with pure intention on hurting you. I think the best example of it is this CG in particular:

Look at that. Such a loving, gentle expression on her face. Probably kissing his forehead. Because she loves him. Heck, without any context, this CG looks even sweet, if you think about it. And yet, all that is while Saeyoung is forcefully sedated on a powerful concoction of drugs even a trained agent like him can't do anything about (and Saeyoung WAS definitely trained to deal with this sort of thing, hence it's mentioned that this is a 'special' kind of drugs). He looks miserable. Bags under his eyes, his expression pained and troubled, even his hair is paler than usual. All that as a direct result of her actions. But she's utterly blind to it. What's scarier, is that she knowingly shuts off her understanding of what's really happening. She's not oblivious to it at all. She just chooses not to see it that way. Simply because she doesn't want to.

Rika is the type of antagonist that will cup your cheek into her warm hand with the most loving of smiles on her face, all while you are getting elixir poured down your throat. Even whispering to you that you're doing great, that the pain will soon pass, and that she can't wait to see you reach the happiness she knows you deserve. I won't be surprised if she even cried genuine tears of compassion during some ceremonies for her believers. All while being the sole reason behind their suffering.

And that's... God, that's terrifying to me. I love that about her.

Rika Kim, they could never make me hate you

I need. I need more of TMSR (tweenage magical samurai rats). Please feed me I am starving

lol, not to worry, there shall be plenty more MFRoVA (mystical fighting rodents of Varying Ages)

but im afraid i am a very slow cook. so here, have a snack to help hold you over!

the babies, new to the sewers with their very first toys!!!

splints came across four off-brand carebear key chains in the a pile of trash as he was looking for a safer place to hide in new york, and well. four toys, four kids! the boys are like a couple weeks old so tiny keychain plushies are giant and perfect for them. they each kinda pick a favorite bear too which splints finds endlessly amusing.

(he actually kinda very loosely starts calling them names/nicknames based off the bears they chose lol. though around age four or so they all pick their own new names -- the new names of course being pulled from a book of renaissance artists. :) mikey was hyperfixating on the pages covering the sistine chapel, so he immediately called dibs on the name Michelangelo, and the others just kinda shrugged and went with it. (im working on that comic currently actually lol))
