I can imagine the first cycle after moving. Probably Leo because Donnie likely has internal scarring, so leo goes through the process of laying his eggs, panics, his brother can't help, and finally, *finally* they ask for help. It's not willingly. It's not for fun. It's purely necessity. It's purely because there's *literally noone else* and the idea of telling anyone at all is so scary that the way they do so is in a note. Splinter sits them down and basically walks them through "You're safe, you're fine. We can handle this however you feel most comfortable, including getting you both on blockers if you prefer" and they just.... sigh. For the first time, there's *someone else* in their circle, and it's willing and it's warm, and it's *safe*. There will be tears.
Yes, except I'm not convinced that either of them could stand to tell anyone. Even if it was literally life or death (which it has been before,) I'm not sure if either of them could bear to give up that information. Donnie is finally, finally away from the people who hurt him when he got found out last time, and even though logically, he knows that it's different here, he's absolutely petrified of the thought that the same thing will happen again and it won't be over anymore. He's still horrified by the idea of anyone else knowing about Leo when he's gone to such lengths for so long to protect him, and Leo is likewise terrified in the same way. They've spent years with this being their more closely guarded secret, and that's going to be really difficult to give up.
But it's really not a secret they'll be able to keep for long.
They're in a completely different environment, with far less space and privacy. They're both stressed as hell and Donnie WAS on birth control and taking all sorts of vitamins and supplements to make sure he didn't eggbind again and now he's suddenly not and it's not only messing with his body, it's fucking scary. It literally keeps them both up at night. Neither of them know how to wash blood out of clothes or sheets. There's no private en suite bathroom they can sequester themselves away in. They're both literally making themselves sick with anxiety trying to deal with this, and they're used to handling this on their own, this is routine for them, but they're not used to all of this.
They'd probably metaphorically limp through a few cycles before their family puts it together and gently confronts them.
Venus probably figures it out first. She's pretty smart, and incredibly observant, and after all-- she quite literally experiences the exact same thing. April may not lay eggs, but I think she'd be able to get the idea after a bit as well. And while I think Splinter would realize something was wrong pretty quickly, Draxum would probably realize what was wrong first. Splinter has April, so he has a little bit of experience in this realm, but Draxum has Venus and so he has far more experience.
And so when they do sit them down and talk with them, it's going to be really scary at first. And then they get to, "you're safe, you're fine, we can handle this however you feel the most comfortable. It will be okay. No one will hurt you."
And then there's finally other people in the know, in the circle, people who will actually help them. And yes-- there will definitely be tears.

terfs go climb into a hole and start rotting. animals cannot inherently tell your "biological sex" you are all so fucking stupid. All this post is saying is that animals are not infallible judges of character and some of them make really stupid vibe checks and that people should try not to take it personally. Unless youre a terf in which case they know and they hate you and you should take it personally
re that one post tbh i do want to stress i dont think animals are like magically psychic at knowing your True Gender tbh i think ppl definitely get way too weird about Animal's judgement of ppl.
Sometimes a dog will vibe check a man and the dog will be right and you should listen. but sometimes the dog will vibe check someone for no good reason. sometimes dogs have wack judgement. sometimes dogs have biases influenced by their owners or previous owners. like. there are Racist Dogs. its not the dogs fault, but that doesnt make the bias theyve developed less real, or less potentially hurtful. i dont think we need to like, Cancel Dogs Bc Sometimes Ppl Can Train Them To Be Racist, but we do need to stop perpetuating the idea that a dog's judgement of someone is infallible. theyre not responsible for it and its not their fault its developed, theyre just dogs, they didnt choose it, but that doesnt mean theyre RIGHT lmao. i think its important to stress this for many reasons but in regard to that last post specifically, if youve ever been vibe checked as a gender you arent by a judgy dog its literally not your fault. might not even be the owners fault. not the dogs fault cos like. its a fucking dog. you do kinda have to be the bigger person in that scenario cos the other person is. A Dog.

I hate the fact that warrior cats has such a grip on me. I ADORED this series when i was 12 years old, I devoured this crap and many other ya novels; but now, over a decade later whenever I randomly pick up a book to read I can barely force myself to read 100 pages let alone more. EXCEPT FOR WARRIOR CATS lmao, give me a bestseller to read and I dont know if I'll finish it no matter how damn interesting, the moment I randomly pick up a warriors book I devour the whole thing in like a day or two. Nice to know my taste is still cringe

freaking people out when theyre on drugs as a meme on the internet is funny but lately its been becoming a little too prevalent to the point where im starting to get concerned?? i think this needs to be said, please dont do that in real life to a person who is literally tripping. its really not anything to joke about in a real life situation, you can fuck someone up really badly from scaring someone whos high on psychedelics especially. its one of the easiest ways to trigger long-time psychosis, not to mention said person losing their trust for you, and no one deserves any of that.

Why don鈥檛 you think the game-makers would let an unhinged MC live very long? Remember Clive wanting to cut up Katniss鈥檚 face and kill her slow? Or that tribute who had her teeth sharpened so she could bite out throats? Capital loves watching sick teens kill each other honestly.
The Capitol does like watching sick teens kill each other but they don't like those sick teens winning the games. It's difficult to market someone who is very obviously deranged. From what I remember Enobaria (the girl with sharpened teeth) didn't have her teeth sharpened till after she had won. Im going to get kind of off-topic here, but I don't think she got into the arena and had just decided that she wants to rip people's throats out. It was something done out of pure instinct and desperation to survive and because she did manage to survive she had to play the role of a ruthless killer. And that is marketable and aligns with how District 2 victors tend to act but Mc going around and mutilating corpses in the name of the one they love isn't something to be expected from a District 8 tribute.
