#rottmnt mnmc

@tmntaucompetition I’m am honestly so shocked. This fandom loves @beannary’s Little Prince and MNMC, so when I saw the matchup it seemed like an instant lose. But I will take the win, and promise that LP Don has a new protector. No more getting obliterated by stray projectiles….unless Leo gets distracted by food.

The new MNMC update got me to work on future Donnie's respirator designnn. I know it's really steampunkish~ but c'mon he would have to adapt to the "apocalypse vibe". Also i always see him with like super modern/futuristic face gear and wanted smth steampunkier.

Oh and also him wearing a hoodie bc i don't wanna draw angst rn

Idk what cool apocalypse wear to give him

You know, as I'm waiting for the next MNMC rottmnt update, I love to look at all the fanart and comics in the tag here on tumblr. But I literally just realized, as I was thinking about it, that we'll very likely get major Leo angst next chapter oh geez

Keep fighting, Leon

The new chapter of Mutant ninja midlife crisis was a stab straight in the stomach, frontal, so they could watch you cry.

There are a thousand scenes that have made their way into my head, but this one really pissed me off. Leon's desperate plea to Big Mama, so heartbreaking and nullifying. A gesture that completely erases him, that slams him to the ground and humiliates him. For nothing!

@mutantninjamidlifecrisis you broke me again, keep going!

[ckswitch]

You guys know when @somerandomdudelmao said in one of their asks about how Cass!Leo went around, talking to other Leo’s about how their brothers died and when during the @rottmntpeepawpolls ?

Yeah.

I thought about that a lot.

(I’m know I’m late as hell shut up)

(Sorry for the @ s wanted to give credit <3 )

“Next I’m standing on that building, looking up at the Krang ship, watching as the portal closes. And I’m so goddamn relieved that it isn’t me that’s closed it. I don’t… I don’t have to go through that again. I never had to in the first place. I’m safe and I’m so happy. Right up until I realise that, if not me, then it’s someone else. One of my brothers. Casey. April. Dad. Fuck, even some well-meaning innocent Joe selfless enough to understand that the whole world means more than just one person. And it makes me feel like the bottom detritus of all matter to have ever felt a modicum of comfort that our roles had been switched.” - Mutant Ninja Midlife Crisis, chapter 13

This story make me feel a lot of emotions… it’s just amazing.

Thanks @mutantninjamidlifecrisis for another great chapter.

I saw someone mention peepaw multiverse the other day and then this idea wormed itself into my head when I was at work - I thought it was hilarious but now that I’ve drawn it I feel so bad lmao I’M SO SORRY JHSADFG (also I’m not up to date with these three brilliant fics! I put all of my reading on hold when I started nqk, sob)

I redrew one frame from my soon-to-be-released animatic cause I'm bored:)

Also, the thick linart I use for animatics steals a bit of expression, so..

MNMC is devastating and hilarious at the same time, poor Mikey

For the ask game: 29?

Favourite line/passage you wrote this year?

hm... I'll stick to lines that are in chapters I've already posted. There's quite a few decent angsty passages in there that I'm proud of (particularly in the Donnie chapter) but I'd say my favourite lines are anything that gave me a good chuckle while writing it. A couple examples:

This notorious scene.

Mikey POV introduction:

People say negativity is contagious, and that sickness is going rampant at the moment. Seriously. It’s like Rat Flu city up in here, and Dr. Positive has had to figure out some serious measures to make sure he doesn’t catch it. He slips a smiling mask over his face, he prescribes his daily dose of laughter, he goes outside and touches- well… It's New York. It’s more cement than grass. The point is, he gets out. He isn’t getting his ass beat by those bad emotions. He sits up straight and he keeps his chin up. He does the same activities he’s always found fun (even when he feels tired and low and he doesn’t get as much pleasure out of doing them as he used to). He wears little bells on his toes and makes out like everything is going to be A-okay. Maybe it’s bullshit, maybe it’s maybelline. Either way, Mikey is going to keep throwing joy at his brothers’ walls until that shit sticks. 

Leon's straight outta dystopia chic:

Leo gets it. Leon’s cool and nice and free with his affection without feeling the need to ruin the moment by making his family endure his dumb jokes. But it’s hard for Leo to like him when Future Handsome Amazing Leo seems just as uninterested in liking him in return. Which is… fine. It’s not like Leo needs to be loved by everyone. It just kinda sucks to have that invisible barrier between them and also begin to see hints of why Casey hero-worships Leon so much. Not to mention that no one else can pull off the one-arm, only pants, straight outta dystopia chic Leon’s got going on and manage to look good doing it. Not even Leo.  No, he’s not bitter about it. 

A little rat man of a person:

He’d never really seen this side of his dad when he was younger. This lack of trust in his own ability to parent them. His regrets. It’d probably always been there, but Leo hadn’t been looking for it. He’d just… resented whenever Splinter hadn’t had the answers. The times he hadn’t been there to guide or show attention to him or his brothers.  He shouldn’t have expected his dad to be some invincible, all-knowing, perfect entity. He’s a person. Sort of. A little rat man of a person, but a person nonetheless. It’s not that dad was ever incompetent or lazy. Not exactly. He’s a son of first generation asian immigrants, turned action star, turned gladiatorial slave, turned mutant, trying to raise four teenage sons who each had their own emotional and psychological needs before the mess with the Krang (Leon only has Casey to handle, and he’s struggling enough with just the one kid). He’s honestly impressed his dad is managing it all as well as he is.  He admires Splinter. When dad made that deal with Draxum, he could have bolted as soon as he got loose. But he saved Leo and his brothers, took them in, sheltered them, fed them, loved them. When someone gives you your life like that… You can’t help but feel you have to give some part of it back.
