#Turtle Speaks

[kwamiwayzz]

actually after some digging i just found out the creator of c09 is an asshole so nicole going to therapy and healthy!jeckole is back oN

I don't really know where to start with this, but taking ideas from an older fic idea from a previous fandom (and a few ideas from other Jeckole fics and headcanons I've read), I imagine that after graduating high school, Jecka knows she wants to go to college, and Nicole (not wanting to admit missing her best friend) decides to go with her because she, "has nothing else going on for her here".

So things are good, maybe not great, but it's good enough. The apartment is dingy, there's a roaches in the hallways every other day, and the hot water is off after 8pm. Both Nicole and Jecka hate it, but it was the best they could do with $5 and a dream (and California is really expensive let's be real--yes, I'm taking the idea that they decide to go to LA based off one of the endings in the game).

Jecka goes to college to study med (Memeframe's fic), and Nicole does...whatever she decides to do. After hopping from job to job, she decides to be an indie musician (also from Memeframe's fic).

All is well and good. LA is full of pretentious people (lmao don't kill me LA-ers), but did they really expect any other place would be devoid of gross men and creeps? Jecka and Nicole get used to the place, and suddenly it's like life doesn't seem all too bad. Sure, Nicole hopes her intrusive thoughts would let her walk into traffic, but then she'd get an earful from Jecka about leaving her with the expensive rent. So...she stops herself, most of the time. Her relief in the noise in her head is still a bottle of booze or a razor blade she sometimes hides from Jecka.

Oh yeah, she also tries to stop cutting too (Inscriptions by Kayleen 756894 on AO3) after she and Jecka try going out. She knows it's a relief for Nicole, but hates seeing the aftermath of the silent pain.

anyway yadda yadda skip the detailed padding and fluff i usually do in all my writing, but there's a particular day where Nicole is just alone in their apartment and she hears gunshots outside (typical for the area), but something about it felt different this time. She shrugs it off like usual, but it still nags at her, and eventually all that trauma she hides with humor, sarcasm, and snark just can't be ignored anymore.

also I'm still catching up on several fics on AO3 so if that long/future fic (aka our present time) is out there...

Little Shadow 2/2

[ 1\2 ]

When I was little I thought my brother was the coolest person in the world. I wanted to be just like him!

Now that I’m older though, I’ve grown into my own person. Now, my brother and I can stand on equal footing, side by side. Whenever he asks for my help or advice, I will always remember how much he helped me when I was young, and I am immensely grateful to be able to do the same for him.

I don’t know if he misses having a little shadow, but I know he’s proud of me :)

And finally, Aftermath Family Meeting 7 | double post for the special occasion~ :) PREV | FIRST

I cannot believe its finally finished. Aftermath was the biggest project I've completed to date and I am so honored to have so many of you along for the ride with me. Now, you may be wondering: what now?

yeah. Me too. It feels really weird to finally have this completed. But, as a donnie core individual, i have PLANS :3

I will be taking some time off of Turtles, Dreamworks Trolls is currently making my brain all fuzzy and happy so I'll be skerdoodling about in that fandom for a bit before I return to start my next Turtle Project. It's all written. You guys aren't ready. It's gonna be SICK.

Once again, thanks for being here for Aftermath. it means the world to me that so many people liked to read something I made. Remember to be kind to yourselves and that healing isnt an all at once thing, its a every day tiny steps thing. See ya soon :)

Just as a note to any aspiring biologists and/or casual biology fans: please do not be intimidated by 'professional' biologists! We are all huge nerds! I've just spent 3 days surrounded by experts in my field, and given half the opportunity they will gladly gush about their research/animals, and answer any and all questions with probably more information than you ever wanted to know. If you ever get a chance, I highly encourage you to attend conferences, seminars, or talks in your area-- your local biologist will love you, and will likely even have opportunities for you to volunteer with them if that's something you're into!

Happy February lovelies♡

Every so often I’ll remember that canonically, Raph (the big hulking 7ft giant) has fainted trying to lift a bus, TWICE, while Mikey (the itty bitty child who is the size of ONE of Raph’s arms) has lifted and thrown a bus, an eighteen-wheeler, a cargo ship, and a skyscraper like it was nothing

I know Raph is strong and it’s shown throughout the show with him lifting and destroying heavy things, but it is my most beloved headcanon that Draxum designed Mikey to be the strongest out of the four in order to make up for his small size. And so I love the idea that Mikey is the only one who can best Raph in arm wrestling competitions and can lift his big brother as easily as a handful of grapes <3 (Bonus points if neither of them have realized this because he’s never actually tried)

Edit: I FOUND THE POST I WAS THINKING OF WHEN I MADE THIS HAHA

Also found this in the process and I love it
