#fic: i may be invisible but i still look good

[intotheelliwoods]

If @dandylovesturtles will not give Leo a hug anytime soon then I will. Take that.

I may be invisible, but I still look good will be the death of me. Chapter 10 already gave me a stab wound.

[e-turn]

I’m not putting him down.

I was devastated the moment I read it... Donnie's probably planning his vegneance... On someone who doesn't have a tangible body... but well what does it matter for a genuis like himself, right!?

@dandylovesturtles you shattered my heart. again. thank you so much for this amazing fanfic again!

перевод этой главы!

[dandylovesturtles]

IT'S DONE!!!!

Thanks again to everyone who has read this fic, who has kudos'd, commented, bookmarked, who has drawn art, who has sent asks, who has interacted with this fic in any way!

You aren't rid of me, Rise fandom. I have more I want to write and I'm starting soon ^^

But for now, my baby is finally finished. I really hope you enjoy the epilogue!

[gejnialne-arty]

It's hard being a ghost. It's hard and no one understands.

(I May Be Invisible, But I Still Look Good by @dandylovesturtles really has no mercy for Leo, he can't even chill on his own bed after having his soul ripped out of his body, this is the worst thing that happened to him, ever 😔)

[thatkoiboi]

a quick sleepy sketch of the back scritches scene from @dandylovesturtles "I May Be Invisible, But I Still Look Good" cause this part was so soft AND WELL DESERVED!!!!!!!

[luxtoony]

YOU.

@dandylovesturtles YOU. (grabs you by the shoulders and shakes like a maniac) How do you dare make me feel so much?!(should I tag this as spoilers?)

I've read "I may be invisible but I still look good" in one sitting, taking breaks to scream into oblivion about my pain, about how casual and natural the dialogue is, how pacing goes smoothly between the softer and harsher events, and so so so much more.

And so here I am bc I had to make something

This moment was so rough, I keep thinking about it all the time.

It may not be THE favourite moment exactly (that one will be made later) but it is from the disaster twins arc, which I adored and cried through the most (as well as the first two/three chapters) bc I am very very weak (and all the other arcs were made equally as great) . I love the story, the villains,the jokes, the character development and characterization and so so so much! I was so happy with many solutions and ideas because they matched my line of thought and didn't leave any annoying holes in the logic ✧⁠\⁠(⁠>⁠o⁠<⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠✧

So. Can't wait for the next part and in the meantime I humbly ofer this lil comic-y fanart

I will be back and I will ramble more, I'm sorry

Re-read the last few chapters of IMBI by Dandy when the new chapter dropped and I NEEDED to draw this moment in chapter 10.

Unhinged Donnie is best Donnie

Heres the fic!

[dandywonderous]

Little... crossover thing between I May Be Invisible But I Still Look Good and little kid with a big death wish by @remedyturtles because uhhhhh yeah

massive spoilers for both IMBI and death wish (especially the most recent chapter (29)).

I'm putting this on my main blog because... it feels a little heavy for the turtle blog haha. it's also under the cut.

cw: suicidal ideation and discussion of suicide

They sit with their feet dangling over the edge.

Leo can see the third rail. It's pretty close; it would be trivial to hop onto the tracks and touch it, exactly what you aren't supposed to do. Of course, in his current state, he could stand on it all day and never get shocked.

Next to him, the one-armed Leo shifts for the first time. His voice is quiet and raspy when he speaks.

"So... you're on the other side of this."

He means recovery from the Krang, or at least, Leo is pretty sure he does. He turns to look, even though the other Leo is pointedly not meeting his eyes.

"I had it a little easier than you." He wiggles his shoulders. "Both arms, no dissociation... the hallucinations were a bitch, though."

The other Leo doesn't pull his eyes away from the tracks. "But then something else bad happened."

"...Yeah. Yeah it did."

His face twists into a deep frown. "So then what's the point?" he asks, voice hollow. "Even if I make it through this... it's just more pain. Just more misery. What do you get out of that?"

"Mm... being alive, I guess."

Leo can tell by the set of the other Leo's shoulders that this isn't a satisfying answer. Which is the whole issue, really.

"...Did you ever think about just... letting go?" the other Leo asks him, and his voice sounds even more worn down.

"...Yeah. Yeah, I did." Leo pulls his feet up onto the platform, shifting around to face the other Leo fully. "I could just let the time run out, be cursed forever. I'd never feel pain or get tired or hungry ever again. I wouldn't be afraid. I wouldn't feel... like I'm failing everyone's expectations. I'd just be done."

"Sounds nice," says the other Leo softly, and he nods.

"Yeah. Can't deny that." He shrugs. "But then I wouldn't get to be with our family, either. And that would be worse than anything."

The other Leo doesn't agree, but he doesn't disagree, either. Leo knows himself, and he can guess that the question is: would it be worse for his family without him?

"Have you told them? That you thought about it," the other Leo asks after a minute or two.

"No. But I'm going to."

"That's gonna suck."

"Oh yeah it is. It's gonna suck massively." He shifts around again, leans back on his arms so his face is more visible in the other Leo's sightline. "But I think it'll be okay afterward."

"They may be mad."

"Maybe."

"They could yell at you."

"Yeah, but I'm kinda hopin' for hugs instead."

"Something else bad could happen."

"Something good could happen."

The other Leo doesn't answer him. He keeps his eyes on the rails.

Far off, Leo hears a train.

leo in i may be invisible

Leo looked down at his brother’s energies, three familiar colors enveloping his hands.

He closed his eyes, and instead of reaching for his swords,

he reached for them.

everyday I wake up and I think about I may be invisible but I still look good by @dandylovesturtles​

bonus entire rough landscape paintings under the cut oop, along with a no text version of the last image

Man I love it when the turtles are in a place in the world thats not New York (hidden city doesnt count, im talking REAL places)

And ok I really did just create an entire landscape painting for ninja turtle fanfiction fanart didnt I

No text versions:

Leo felt the panic rise to a crescendo. He reached out wildly for Mikey, trying to grab his face, his hands, his arms, anything, anything he could to make him stop.

“Mikey, you don’t have to do this! I’m right here, I never left, you don’t have to go back, I’m here!”

I find it a really good idea that Leo doesn’t have any body fluids in this state. A detail that can be a blessing for someone but turns out as another part of torture for someone else. 

@dandylovesturtles, you are amazing :)

продолжаю выкладывать перевод.

[dandylovesturtles]

once again I am posting in the middle of the night

uh

idk what to say here

[gejnialne-arty]

Currently I'm rereading this amazing fic called I May Be Invisible, But I Still Look Good by @dandylovesturtles and it has a looot of amazing moments, but for some reason this one stood out to me- April emanates such Big Sister energy here and I adore how she took Leo's Whole Situation, it's just so sweet to me and then Mikey commenting in the background- I had to draw it!
