No but like every time I think about Splinter and what he had to go through just to keep the boys alive, my heart hurts for him so badly. Is he perfect? No not at all, but none of them are and by god does he love his sons.

The fact that all of them are alive, and grew to thrive despite the circumstances surrounding them is a testament of how much Splinter loves his boys. He raised four babies following the most traumatic time of his life, all alone with nothing but the sewers to house them (to hide them.) I feel like he’s not given the credit he deserves for all he’s done.

And I get that it’s easy to hold up his flaws and faults when it comes to parenting, I myself like looking into them because flawed characters are super interesting and said flaws make them more realistic and engaging, but he tries, and again, so many others would have given up on the boys or failed along the way but Splinter didn’t.

He’s their father, for all his faults he did his damndest to make sure they survived.

I was saving this for my fanfic but I liked the idea so much I had to draw it!

Bonus:

valgrace except they steal eachother’s clothes all the time. it started off as something small. jason didnt bring a jacket so leo offered his because he always runs hot, he never asked for it back so jason kept it. leo scorched his camp shirt during a bad run in with the forge and jason came to the rescue with his own shirt, he was wearing an tank top underneath and leo walked around with the dark blue custom camp shirt made for the cabin of zeus.

then it became something bigger. they’d swap hoodies, pajama pants, everything possible until their closets were split between half and half.

after leo died, all jason could wear was his clothes. he wanted to keep leo close, to never forget how he smelled of birch wood and kindling ash. leo’s clothes were thin so jason almost always wore the first jacket that was given to him even in 100 degree weather.

when jason died, leo wore both. his clothes were covered in jason’s scent and he would switch them out for jason’s clothes when it eventually washed and faded away. it was the last things he had from jason and the night that he couldn’t smell him on the blue camp shirt, leo sobbed until his throat was hoarse and his eyes were sore.

I just have to say that it's so weird reading how transphobes think of trans bodies as mutilated and gross when they never would have thought my body pre-transition was worthy. The "argument" of mutilated beauty that transphobes have tossed around is just a fear mongering tactic, because they don't tend to actually love or appreciate and see value in bodies that don't "neatly" fit into male and female, with no overlap and no nuances.

I finally watched The Thing the other week and it was fantastic, of course. But now I'm kind of wishing yet again that they remade the 2002 The Thing game. I never played through the whole game but I remember it having some cool features like... Trust system that determined whether your teammates trusted you or suspected your infection, and that affected their choice to follow your orders. Fear system that determined how scared they were which impacted their ability to successfully execute their jobs and follow commands. Infection system which gave everyone who came in contact with the Thing a random chance to become infected.

That's sounds like such a fun mechanic! Having to go through the research stations full of horrors while constantly trying to keep morale up, sharing ammo with your people so they don't feel powerless all the while you're all watching each other from the corner of your eyes because who knows if one of you is already infected...

The one thing I'd enjoy a modern adaptation/remake of is this game and it's not happening.

is this what you wanted?

Most purpose is more burden than glory. And trust me, you never wanna be the guy who avoids it ’cause you can’t live with the burden.

At some point in the "Hades" video game, I came across a piece of text that suggested Zagreus didn't know what an olive was??? It's possible that I totally misread the text, though I think he does comment on "plants he's never seen before" when visiting that specific place at the end of the game. Anyway, that implication was one of two times where I had a real "...oh my god???" moment of horror, thinking about the fact that Zagreus has never left the Underworld.

And if Zagreus has never even seen an olive before (let's imagine this is true for a moment) and doesn't know what one is, then that makes a great potential comedic interaction between him and other characters. It's especially funny to imagine little revelations like this being a turning point for his friends and family.

Young Zagreus: "Achilles, sir, I have another question about the living world, if you could spare me a moment?"

Achilles: (internally) "Ah, the young prince's lack of experience in some matters is sad, but I hope he realizes how fortunate he is, not only to live the privileged immortal life of a god even here in the Underworld, but to at least be surrounded by so many friends and family who love him dearly."

Achilles: (out loud) "Of course, lad, I'm happy to help. What is your question?"

Young Zagreus: "I overheard some shades talking about food in the world above again, all these dishes and plants that don't grow down here, and... Sir, what's an 'olive'?"

Achilles: "..."

Young Zagreus: "The shades talk about olive oil like it's ambrosia. Olives can't really be THAT good, right? Do they taste anything like pomegranates?"

Achilles: (internally) "I have to get this boy out of here."
