#so like... HOW STRONG CAN THE TURTS GET

[qoldenskies]

actually now that im thinking about the kraang im wondering just what happened all that time in the past that allowed them to be secured in the prison dimension, considering prime mentions that most of them died in there like.... looking at how futile the fight was against THREE of them even with them at their best and strongest (and im not even going to try to question how they actually reproduce, but im pretty sure there were more than three in the glimpse of the bad future), what HAPPENED??? how many WERE there back before they were put in the prison dimension??

it only mentions that they were secured by "powerful mystic warriors" but i kind of assume the implication was that they were hamato, considering the kraang have historically been worshiped by the foot and splinter knew about them (enough to have a somewhat intense reaction when they're named). were they capable of doing it because there were MORE hamato congregated, or are the turtles STILL capable of becoming even stronger??? what are the limits of their potential....

2012!Turts React to Rise!Team

🟢 TMNT 2012 Turtles & ROTTMNT Turtles 🟢

CWs: None.

What 2012!Leo thinks of Rise!Leo

2012!Leo finds Rise!Leo’s casual attitude and showboating grating. It clashes with his own strict discipline, and he can’t understand how anyone could trust such a jokester to lead.

2012!Leo is baffled by the “face man” moniker, believing leadership is about responsibility and strategy, not charisma. He initially dismisses Rise!Leo as reckless and undisciplined.

However, after seeing Rise!Leo teleport and use his showboating as a strategic distraction, 2012!Leo develops a grudging respect. He recognizes a chaotic effectiveness in his methods and, despite his flippancy, can’t deny Rise!Leo’s skill and ability to unite his team.

Observing Rise!Leo outside of combat, 2012!Leo is quietly impressed—and a little jealous—of how he supports his brothers without overbearing control. He realizes for the first time that leadership can actually be fun.

2012!Leo is disarmed by his counterpart’s unpredictable yet effective leadership, realizing the flair and humor are just a cover for genuine reliability.

2012!Leo is both impressed and unsettled. This freer version of himself makes him question his own identity, which is defined by discipline and duty, and wonder if he missed out—or if that weight was necessary to make him who he is.

What 2012!Leo thinks of Rise!Raph

“That’s their Raph?! He’s enormous! And he was their leader? He seems so … openly emotional. Our Raph bottles it up until he explodes; this one just feels things, loudly. He’s clearly strong, and fiercely protective, which I respect. But his leadership style, if it was based on that much overt emotion—I don’t know how that would work. Still, you can’t fault his dedication.”

2012!Leo finds Rise!Raph an anomaly, shocked by his immense size and former leadership role. Accustomed to his own brother’s anger, he finds Rise!Raph’s open emotionality unprofessional, as it conflicts with his entire understanding of command.

Leo expects another hothead, but is thrown off by this Raph’s gentle nature. He leads with a kind authority that messes with Leo’s head, making him wonder if his own Raph could have been that type of leader if things had been different.

Leo watches this Raph with a mix of admiration and envy, amazed to see him lead so well. Instead of power struggles, a confidence and genuine care unite the team, making Leo wonder if the problem wasn’t that his Raph couldn’t lead, but that he never gave him the space to try.

What 2012!Leo thinks of Rise!Donnie

“Their Donnie is … theatrical. Extremely so. The tech is undeniably advanced, perhaps even more offensively geared than our Donnie’s, but the dramatic pronouncements? The constant need for flair? It seems inefficient. Our Donnie is logical, sometimes to a fault; this one seems to prioritize performance. I wonder about his focus under pressure. The intellect is clearly there, though.”

Leo finds Rise!Donnie excessively theatrical. While his advanced tech is impressive, the constant dramatic pronouncements are distracting. Leo values efficiency and focus, making him question how this performative counterpart handles stealth, and whether his style overshadows his obvious intellect.

This Donnie’s genius makes Leo’s own Donnie seem safe; his tech is less about problem-solving and more about chaotic invention. Leo respects the brilliance but is unnerved, questioning if he could be trusted in a crisis like his own brother. Despite this, he admires how he owns his eccentricity.

Initially, Leo finds him chaotic and dramatic, but he soon discovers a focused, self-assured mind beneath the flamboyance that gets results. He begins to respect how Rise!Donnie never apologizes for his intelligence, thinking his own Donnie could use some of that confidence.

What 2012!Leo thinks of Rise!Mikey

“Another Mikey … and he has mystic fire chains? He’s even more overtly out there than ours, if that’s possible. The ‘artistic’ angle is new. While our Mikey is a distraction, this one seems to weaponize his creativity in a very literal sense. Is he ever serious? He’s got the heart, I can see that, but the discipline …”

Leo observes this other Mikey with a mixture of apprehension and curiosity. His whimsical use of dangerous mystic powers is unsettling to him. While he sees the same boundless energy and heart as his own brother, it’s channeled into chaotic, creative expression instead of disciplined ninjutsu—the opposite of the order and control Leo values.

Leo can’t help but smile, seeing so much of his Mikey in him. But where his own brother is often brushed off, this Mikey shines and is respected. Leo feels a pang of guilt, wondering if he has underestimated his own brother all this time.

Leo sees the raw creativity and mystic energy, but what catches his attention is the respect this Mikey commands. He’s still a goofball, but he’s heard. Leo realizes he’s spent years dismissing his own Mikey’s ideas because they seemed silly, and wonders if, given this version’s competence, his brother has always deserved more credit.

What 2012!Raph thinks of Rise!Raph

2012!Raph is first struck by Rise!Raph’s immense size. He expects a macho rival but is thrown off by his counterpart’s calm, more soft-spoken, and fiercely protective nature.

2012!Raph is confused by Rise!Raph, who wears every feeling on his sleeve and leads with his heart. He expected a fellow hothead but instead finds a counterpart who is surprisingly gentle and sensitive despite his immense strength.

The way Rise!Raph protects his brothers lands hard. 2012!Raph softens, realizing that maybe strength isn’t just about fists and fury.

2012!Raph watches Rise!Raph openly listen and care, defusing arguments and offering hugs without a second thought. He’d never admit it, but the guy has his respect.

Rise!Raph is gentle with his brothers, carrying his strength as the tank with humility. 2012!Raph is surprised to discover that he genuinely likes him a lot.

It also makes him wonder what kind of brother he could have been if he hadn’t always felt the need to be the angry one.

What 2012!Raph thinks of Rise!Leo

“This pretty boy is their Leo? He’s all talk and flashy moves. ‘Face man’? Give me a break. He’s cracking jokes while he’s supposed to be leading? Our Leo’s bad enough with the Space Heroes obsession, but at least he tries to be serious. This guy seems like he’s always trying to be the star of the show. Those swords are fancy, but can he actually fight without teleporting away?”

Raph instantly dismisses Rise!Leo as a poser, annoyed by his constant quips and flashy fighting style. Unlike his own serious leader, Raph doubts this version has the grit for a real fight and would just teleport away from trouble.

Ugh. This guy? He’s like if Mikey and Leo had a baby and raised it on a diet of pure sarcasm. Raph is infuriated by this sarcastic show-off. But when he sees him working hard to protect his brothers while pretending not to care, he’s hit with a damning realization: that behavior is all too familiar.

Raph tries not to roll his eyes at this Leo’s constant jokes. But the more he watches, the more he sees the pressure and instinctual leadership behind the humor. He realizes this smart-mouth isn’t just a clown—he has bite, making him wonder if his own Leo has been carrying that same weight all along, just in a different way.

What 2012!Raph thinks of Rise!Donnie

“So that’s their Donnie. Even more of a nerd than ours, if that’s possible, and way more dramatic about it. ‘Soft shell’? What kinda ninja advertises their weak spot? His tech looks like it could do some damage, I guess, but he acts like he’s in a bad play. Our Donnie’s annoying with his science talk, but at least he doesn’t make a whole song and dance about it.”

Raph finds this Donnie, if possible, even more of a brainiac than his own brother, and twice as loud about it. The dramatic flair and theatrical pronouncements are incredibly irritating. While he grudgingly admits his gadgets are powerful, the personality is like nails on a chalkboard; his own Donnie is annoying, but at least he isn’t putting on a one-turtle show.

Initially, his smug, theatrical nature annoys Raph more than his own Donnie ever has. But then he sees him fiercely protect his brothers and starts to see the care underneath the ego. Okay, maybe he’s not that bad. Still too dramatic, though.

Raph doesn’t trust him at first; he’s too smug. But he protects his brothers without hesitation and pulls off insane tech saves that make even his Donnie raise a brow. Raph realizes this version hides his care under bravado, much like he does with anger. He doesn’t like it, but he gets it.

What 2012!Raph thinks of Rise!Mikey

“Another Mikey. Great. This one’s got weird fire things and calls himself an ‘artist.’ He seems even more hyper than our goofball. Does he ever shut up or sit still? He’s probably even more annoying than my Mikey, which is saying something. Though, gotta admit, setting your chains on fire is kinda cool, if you’re into that flashy stuff.”

Raph braces himself for double the pranks and noise. The mystic powers are different and maybe a little impressive in a chaotic way, but mostly he just sees another goofball who needs to learn to be serious.

This kid makes Raph laugh. He’s creative like his Mikey, but bolder, jumping into danger with a grin Raph deems either brave or dumb. It makes Raph see his own brother in a new light, wondering if he’s always been this gutsy and he just never noticed.

Raph is blown away by this Mikey, who launches into fights with fearless confidence. More than that, he listens, adapts, and leads in quiet ways. Raph realizes his own Mikey might have been doing the same thing all along; he just never gave him credit for it.

What 2012!Donnie thinks of Rise!Donnie

Initially, 2012!Donnie is impressed and overwhelmed by Rise!Donnie’s tech. Creations like his transforming battle shell are leagues beyond his own bo-staff inventions in sheer offensive capability and integration.

They butt heads at first. 2012!Donnie with his pragmatic approach, Rise!Donnie with his dramatic pronouncements. But then 2012!Donnie sees the genuine genius behind his counterpart’s creations, finding a kindred spirit in his passion for invention, even if Rise!Donnie’s dramatic presentation makes him roll his eyes.

An instant rivalry forms—not hostile, just hypercompetitive. They swap blueprints and finish each other’s calculations, and 2012!Donnie hates how much he likes his counterpart, who is obnoxious, brags constantly, and flaunts his tech with absolutely no scientific humility.

2012!Donnie secretly admires his counterpart’s confidence and wants to study his dramatic tech, recognizing him as a fellow, albeit flamboyant, genius.

What truly sticks with 2012!Donnie is how unapologetic his counterpart is. Rise!Donnie owns his brilliance, never explaining it away or downplaying it to seem humble.

That stings a little. He’s spent years being the behind-the-scenes problem-solver, and now he wonders what would happen if he allowed himself to take up that much space.

What 2012!Donnie thinks of Rise!Leo

“Fascinating. This Leo relies on spatial distortion and improvised, quippy maneuvers rather than traditional strategy. His grasp of leadership seems unconventional. He calls himself the ‘face man’? The scientific principles behind his portal generation are intriguing, I’ll admit. But his lack of overt planning and constant need for witty banter seems counterproductive to mission success. Our Leo would have an aneurysm.”

Donnie finds this alternate Leo a fascinating, perplexing study. He analyzes his portal-based tactics and “face man” persona as unconventional methods of team cohesion and enemy distraction. While the science behind the portals is highly intriguing, Donnie considers the lack of pre-planning and constant one-liners logically unsound for a leader.

Donnie is annoyed because this Leo reminds him of his own, if only 2012!Leo wouldn’t hold back. But he also has style, tactical creativity, and an uncanny way of staying ten steps ahead. It’s frustrating, mostly because Donnie respects it. He thinks the two Leos could learn from each other, if they ever stopped arguing.

Donnie is immediately annoyed. He’s loud, dramatic, and somehow more chaotic than Mikey. But when Leo lays out three-dimensional strategy in real time during a fight, Donnie’s brain sparks. He realizes he’s not just flair; he’s a strategist hiding behind a stage persona. It’s frustrating, and genius. Donnie grudgingly admits he likes the guy. Just a little.

What 2012!Donnie thinks of Rise!Raph

“The largest of them, and apparently their former leader. His emotional responses are … highly demonstrative. The mystic amplification of his physical strength is noteworthy, turning emotional drive into tangible kinetic force. It’s an illogical system for leadership—relying on feeling over tactical assessment—but the raw power output is undeniable. He’s like our Raph, if our Raph’s anger had a more constructive, albeit equally loud, outlet.”

Donnie’s first data point is Rise!Raph’s size, followed by the clear correlation between his emotional state and his mystic power. He finds his past leadership, driven by overt emotion, an interesting variable—a stark contrast to 2012!Leo’s more calculated approach. While he privately deems it a suboptimal system, he concedes the raw protective instinct and resulting force are undeniably effective.

He confuses Donnie. Not in a bad way, just different. He’s used to Raph being a blunt force, but this version is thoughtful and empathetic, which is refreshing. He’d never say it, but he sometimes likes him more than his own Raph. Just don’t tell anyone.

Donnie watches him carefully. He’s unlike the Raph he’s known—quieter, gentler, more stable. He’s the foundation, not the flame. And that’s confusing. But also comforting? Donnie starts to see what Raph could be like without the constant pressure to prove himself. It makes him want to check in on his own Raph more often.

What 2012!Donnie thinks of Rise!Mikey

“This Mikey manifests mystic energy in highly variable, almost whimsical forms. An ‘artist’ who fights with what appears to be a superheated, psychically controlled kusari-fundo. His energy levels are comparable to our Mikey’s, which is, frankly, exhausting to even consider. His contributions seem erratic, yet occasionally, surprisingly effective. The physics of his abilities are … perplexing.”

Donnie observes this Mikey and his mystic kusari-fundo with keen, analytical interest. He finds his energy projection, weaponized art, and “Dr. Delicate Touch” persona to be highly irregular and fascinating from a scientific and psychological standpoint. While he doesn’t gravitate towards the artistic approach, he can’t deny its surprising combat efficacy.

He’s chaos incarnate, and Donnie wants to study him. He uses creativity the way Donnie uses machines—like a weapon. Watching him lift spirits and push limits, it hits him: has he been underestimating his own Mikey this whole time?

This Mikey is like his little brother given mystic energy and permission to go full creative god-mode. It’s ridiculous—and weirdly inspiring. When Donnie sees Rise!Mikey turn wild ideas into real solutions, it clicks: his own Mikey’s brain isn’t like his, but it’s no less brilliant. Maybe it’s time to stop calling his plans “dumb” before hearing them out.

What 2012!Mikey thinks of Rise!Mikey

“Dude! Another Mikey! And he’s got fire chains?! JEALOUS!”

2012!Mikey instantly vibes with Rise!Mikey, seeing a kindred spirit in his creativity, imagination, and love for his brothers. Awed by his art and mystic powers, he feels completely understood.

He’s like the version of himself who was never told to tone it down.

This version of him is vibrant, mystical, and bold. An artist with a warrior’s soul. He isn’t just tolerated by his brothers; he’s valued.

It hits hard. Mikey knows he’s treated as the comic relief, but Rise!Mikey is a wild card who is also a pillar—funny yet wise, and soft without being weak.

He’s proud and a little sad, because he now sees he could have been more than the joke guy all along—if only his brothers had taken him seriously sooner.

What 2012!Mikey thinks of Rise!Leo

“Whoa, their Leo is so cool! He makes jokes, and he teleports! It’s like he’s got his own awesome catchphrases! Our Leo needs to lighten up and learn some of those moves! He seems super fun, and those swords are wicked!”

Mikey thinks this Leo is the epitome of cool—confident, flashy, and funny. His fighting style is slick, the portals mind-blowing, and Mikey is an instant fan. He’d probably nudge his own Leo and whisper, “See? That’s how you lead with style!”

This Leo is hilarious, and Mikey loves it. But he also sees the layers—the hard work behind the jokes—which makes him wish his own brother would loosen up a little.

Mikey loves this Leo. He’s hilarious and dramatic, but underneath all that swagger, Mikey sees someone who deeply cares. He wishes his own Leo would let loose like that and decides to mess with him more. For his own good, of course.

What 2012!Mikey thinks of Rise!Raph

“Their Raph is HUGE! And he makes giant glowing fists! That is SO animesque! He was their leader? And he’s all sweet and cries and stuff? Awww, he’s like a giant, super-strong teddy bear who can totally smash things! Way different from our Raph, but super cool in his own way!”

Mikey is floored by Rise!Raph, fascinated that he was their former leader and is so openly emotional. He finds his affection endearing and would probably try to hug him, much to his own Raph’s annoyance. To Mikey, the stark contrast with his own gruff brother is incredibly cool.

He’s like a warm blanket with fists, so different from Mikey’s Raph, and he feels genuinely safe around him. He treats his brothers with a softness that makes Mikey wonder why his Raph never does the same—and if he thinks Mikey doesn’t need it.

Mikey feels safe with him in a way he doesn’t with his own Raph. This one is more soft-spoken and gentle, offering a comforting energy instead of tough-love yelling. It makes Mikey wonder if his own Raph always wanted to lead with that kind of heart but simply didn’t know how.

What 2012!Mikey thinks of Rise!Donnie

“Dude! Their Donnie is like, a super-scientist rock star! His shell transforms, and he’s all dramatic and stuff! ‘By the power of SCIENCE!’ Ha! Our Donnie could use some of that pizzazz! His tech looks awesome, like it could make even bigger explosions!”

Mikey is totally jazzed by Rise!Donnie’s theatrical inventions and dramatic declarations. He loves the purple aesthetic and thinks this Donnie makes being smart look incredibly exciting and action-packed.

Mikey thinks he’s absolutely nuts—and he loves it. To him, this mad scientist in power armor in the form of a battle shell, with his absurd tech and theatrical flair, is what his Donnie would be like if he finally stopped being “responsible” and just went off the rails.

Mikey is obsessed. This Donnie is extra in the best way: a pure tech diva who never hides who he is. Mikey realizes his own brother could use a little more of that fearless weirdness.

BONUS: Overall as a team

Learning that the Rise!Team’s Splinter is a lazy, ex-movie star is a massive shock for the 2012!Turtles. The stark contrast to their own wise, stern, and traditional father figure is difficult for them to process.

The sheer chaos of the Rise!Team is something to behold, making the 2012!Turtles feel orderly by comparison. The Rise!Team’s fighting style, a mix of mystic powers and individualistic flair, is completely different from their own synchronized ninjutsu.

The 2012!Turtles are initially alarmed by the Rise!Team’s lack of traditional discipline. But then they’d see them pull off incredible feats. There’s a period of adjustment, of trying to understand the Rise!Team’s dynamic.

Slowly, they find common ground in their love for pizza, their dedication to protecting the city, and the unbreakable bond of brotherhood—even if it’s expressed very differently.

The 2012!Team learns adaptability from their counterparts, who in turn learn about traditional focus, creating a weird, loud, and surprisingly heartwarming cultural exchange.

what makes your turtles happy. Like what would I have to give them to make them smile.

(there's been too much angst recently and I need something cute )

╥﹏╥

I am.. SO SORRY it took me this long to finally answer your question- I promise I sincerely wanted to, but life got busy, I got sick, and uh.. here we are. XD

Anyyyyways! Onto your question!

Leonardo- One of Leo's favorite past times is putting together puzzles while listening to movie soundtracks on his CD player. After tense missions or siblings annoying him all the time, he needs this kinda activity to rest and relax. :) Because his brothers think that putting together a puzzle is "old lady stuff" he's able to do it without any interruptions. (Except for a possible impromptu dance break from Mikey, but that's usually appreciated.) He also LOVES to organize all the pieces into their respective piles of color and shape.

Eventually, later in the story, Leo notices that Lotus fights anxiety and stress as badly as he does. (Maybe even worse.) So, in an attempt to help her, he invites her to join him whenever he takes out a 1,500 piece puzzle.

Raphael- This. This brings him immeasurable joy.

...Though sometimes things don't end so well for him. XD

But- in all seriousness, he loves to draw. :) Especially when he's allowed by Don to just chill in his beanbag chair as his freckled twin works at his computer. He also loves to get into wrestling matches with his brothers- a good little tussle to get the blood pumping and practice their grappling- as well as to get a chance to test each others' strength!

Donatello- With how stressful and annoying customers can become with his IT job, Don just sometimes needs some space outside. Compared to his stale, cramped office, a peaceful forest is paradise to him, allowing his always-moving brain to finally quiet.

Lotus- It takes her a long time to find things that she likes. For one, the first few weeks of being in the lair consist of lots of Medbay visits and physical recovery, but once she grows strong enough, Don teaches her how to bake. :)

And in time, and with lots of practice, Lotus learns to find so much happiness when she watches her brothers enjoying something she made. :)

Michelangelo- Hahaha there's a whole list- but I'll just go over the main things he loves. :) Firstly, Mikey loves it when he's called into the Kitchen or Medbay by Leo to have Medic lessons. This isn't only time spent with his big bro, but it's also really neat to hear about how the body works, how he can help his team better, and how to better take care of himself. It takes a lot of concentration to sit and listen, but it's always worth it. Especially when he sees Leo get passionate about something he works so hard to do. <3

Next would be singing and dancing. :) Anywhere. And at any time. He could be in the middle of a geography test and he'd still break out into song. And dancing is just such a cool way to express himself! Clicking on Leo's CD player with his favorite Smash Mouth hits, it won't even be two seconds before he's swaying, shimmying, and moon-walking.

Chores don't stop him from having fun either- Dishes are lame, but add your favorite hits on your MP3 player, and it's AWESOME.

And lastly, but most importantly, Mikey loves to paint. <3 He always has since being a toddler, thanks to an accident when Splinter left paint out in the boys' bedroom. Diving his hands into the cool, smooth, brightly-hued paint just sparked a deep creative drive in him, and it's been that way ever since.

Hahaha my story has been on the angstier side, so this was a lot of fun to just draw my turts being their fun, wholesome, chaotic selves. :) (Before more angst occurs in my story MUAHAHHAHAH)

Thanks for the question!

To God be the glory!

December moments

Today's used prompts: cold - cosy - fireplace - angel

What are the two residents in 221B Baker Street up to when there’s no case, John’s off work and it’s cold outside? I can promise they’re not freezing… Let’s have a peek, shall we? (Mature content)

December 6

John has brought his two afghans into the sitting room and arranged them in front of the fireplace, which is lit. The flames cast a golden glow over his hair. I long to run my fingers through it. 

Later. Be patient. 

John covers the blankets with sheets and places one duvet over his chair. I’m eagerly watching from the sofa, not allowed to interfere until he calls me over. I shiver with anticipation. It’s an exquisite kind of torture. 

The cold I’ve felt all day has disappeared. I can feel my cheeks blush from the warmth of the fireplace, but also from arousal. When John is in this mood, I would be a fool not to expect his full attention. My erection aches and I have to adjust myself. I must have made some sound because John turns toward me and smirks. 

“Soon, sweetheart,” he tells me, letting his gaze linger on my groin. 

He teases me further by licking his lips. I can tell it’s deliberate. My hand squeezes the visible bulge and I sigh relieved, closing my eyes stroking myself. 

John’s hand is gentle when he takes my hand away and brings it to his mouth to kiss it. 

“Come on, love,” he says and pulls me up. 

He’s so strong. Much stronger than people think. 

When we reach the little nest he’s made for us, he slides my dressing gown off my shoulders. It makes a swooshing sound on its way to the floor. All my senses are sharpened when I’m waiting for John’s next move. 

“You’re not cold?” he inquires although he knows I’m quite the opposite. 

Instead of answering I make an impatient sound which makes him chuckle. 

“I best get on with it then,” he determines. 

The rest of my clothes are soon scattered all over the floor, and when I’m completely naked he lays me down on his soft creation of afghans, sheets, duvets and pillows. I make myself comfortable and stretch my body to get rid of some of the tension. 

“Look at you,” John breathes reverently. “So beautiful.”

His praise makes me blush which I know pleases John thoroughly. He never mocks me like previous lovers have done in the past. Instead, he smiles that private smile he reserves only for me and tells me how much he loves me. 

“Have I told you how much I love you today?” John murmurs and kneels beside me. 

He strokes up my chest with his firm hands and I sigh contentedly. A curl has fallen onto my forehead and John catches it with two fingers, playing with it before he puts it back in place. I ache to kiss him and lift my head to reach his lips. 

“Relax,” he whispers but meets my eager mouth with his own. 

It’s bliss to be kissed by him like this. When we’ve got all the time in the world and his patience seems endless. The kiss is tender, slow and soft. Like a love poem. His tongue licks the contours of my upper lip before he sucks just so. I moan with pleasure and finally get my hands to work, stroking my fingers through his silvery-golden hair. 

“I love your hands,” he says and smiles happily down at me. 

The joy I feel in such moments overwhelms me and I pull him down to hide my crimson face in his neck. Those moments are also made easy to endure despite my self-consciousness. John’s mouth is aligned with my ear and the things he whispers then can actually make me come on the spot. 

“My darling angel. I’m honoured that you allow me to see your vulnerability like this. You’re so precious to me. Gorgeous. Sexy. Unique. I love you so so much, Sherlock.”

“J…John…I…”

And John understands and wraps his fingers around my leaking penis and strokes me to oblivion.

welcome to turtle hell

may or may not have watched both seasons and the tv movie of rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles in a possessed state the last couple of weeks

the two pillars of my enjoyment for this series are:

the writing and production quality are ridiculously polished for a y7 kids' show. like, huge swathes of the tv show are what i would call mathematically perfect. absolutely pristine structure. this is a masterclass in character-driven action/comedy pacing. i'm being so serious rn and speaking from a real critique perspective.

raph (red bandana turtle) is my sweetie angel perfect son and i love him. i'm speaking as the loving mother to a perfect sweetie angel son.

ROTTMNT is a show from 2018 that tries a new spin on the classic turts -- in a move i find really fun, each one of the teens is a different kind of turtle. my sweetie angel is a snapping turtle, donatello's a softshell turtle, etc.

the character dynamics are also flipped around a little bit: instead of raph being the angry one guided by his leader leonardo, here he's the leader, struggling really hard between parentified eldest brother overprotectiveness and being a rowdy teen who also would just like to smash shit and have a good time. this show's leonardo is a showman who would rather have fun and look cool than train -- this gets him into trouble when he refuses to take things seriously and when his brothers can't recognize the rare times he DOES take things seriously.

they're the heart of the show imo, with raph slowly learning that he doesn't have to take on every burden and that he can trust his brothers to have his back, and leo learning in the post-show movie to listen to his brothers in turn.

responsibility and duty -- what is yours, how much of a burden is it, how will you respond to it? -- are huge questions in this show. it's notable that this show's splinter is like, brutally depressed and therefore negligent as a parent, and doesn't tell his turtle kids about any of his past or their family duties until forced. this splinter started as the scion of a clan dedicated to repressing the demon shredder; he bailed on his responsibility in his youth, changed his name, and made a career as a hollywood action star. then he got mutated into a horrible little rat man and acquired four turtle sons. he loves his kids but spends most of his time watching tv, including a lot of reruns of his own movies from when he was a cool respected human action star and not a depressed single rat dad.

there's a conversation splinter has with michelangelo late in the game, about the yokai scientist who mutated them both:

mikey is a reasonably well-adjusted sewer teen who would like to know more about his past; splinter loves his kids but has never gotten over what was done to him.

splinter: WHY do you care about him?

mikey: he made me. he made us!

splinter: i know. he's a monster.

to get back to my sweetie angel, raph is both the oldest (i don't know how they decided turtle ages. genuinely.) and the biggest/toughest physically. he towers over his brothers. mikey climbs on him like a jungle gym. all the turts have magic abilities in this show. raph's is that he can surround himself in a glowing red projection of his own body, which he can scale up to godzilla size. raph uses this both to clobber guys and frequently as a shield to protect his allies. the first time he ever activates his power, it's to save leo after he got tossed off a roof. this is not subtle: he is the strong one, the oldest one, he shields his brothers from harm and carries them and leads them. in the season two finale, he breaks under the strain of having to lead his brothers against shredder with no weapons or backup. and he's taught a lesson by a family member he never knew he had: you are not alone. you can't lead and protect and fight and plan by yourself. your abilities rely on your family, and you have to trust that they will catch you when you fall just like you always catch them.

it's not subtle!! it doesn't have to be. it works.

also, raph internalizes this lesson and decides to teach it to his brothers by jumping off a cliff and trusting they'll catch him on the way down. he is still a dipshit teenager. and my perfect son--

pivoting:

this show has 12-minute episodes (two per 24-minute half-hour tv block), and a lot of them are adventure of the week. that is not a lot of time at all, especially considering there are plenty of extended action sequences. the show is SO quickly paced for it. you're tossed into a situation with maybe one line of setup; a couple times the show starts in media res and then has one character turn to another to ask, "why are we doing [X plot action]?" to get you situated.

when i talk about mathematical structure, this is what i mean. this show is doing so much with character work and worldbuilding layered on top of its adventure plots that its pacing has to absolutely run on rails. it's really effective, and that layering keeps you from feeling like you're only seeing the mechanics of the plot. every character is fun and weird and vivid and has an idiosyncratic voice, both in the writing and in the performing. april o'neil gets squawky and squeaky; raph and casey jones jump up and down in volume as they get worked up over the course of a sentence; ben schwartz is here.

the worst i can say about this show is that nickelodeon cut its second season order in half and canceled the third season and you can feel it. stuff starts getting rushed in the back half of s2 and in the tv movie. characters get dropped. problems are brought up and left unsolved. and yet things still mostly work. if "damn, nick fucked you over" is the worst i can say about a show that show is pretty good!!!!

the animation, the fx work, the background painting, the sound design [there's a tiger roar sfx that occasionally gets dropped in at dramatic/comedic moments that makes me laugh every time], they're all genuinely so good it makes me mad. it's so fucked up that this show is this good. i'm in turtle hell.

Part 6 of my WoF x Persona 5 au!

Chapter 6: The Fool and his noble Chariot

“BLAST THEM AWAY, HURRICANE”

Tsunami commanded ferociously, as her persona launched 2 massive bolts of lightning towards 2 of the approaching guards, knocking them back as Clay then kept up Tsunamis the attack by having Obsidian blast apart one of those guards with a powerful strike, and Turtle did much the same using Honu to break it apart, as they all then grouped against The Golden Guard.

“You accursed delinquents! Troubling The Great Whirlpool with a trifle matter like y-” Before the Golden Guard could finish, Tsunami whacked it with her new weapon, which appeared to be a simple metal pipe, and as such, quite deadly in the hands of a brute force brawler like herself

“If Whirlpools cognition ain’t changin’, I’m just gonna act like the troublemaker I am! Let’s keep this us Hurricane!” Tsunami said, as her Persona pierced the body of The Golden Guard and threw it into the air, which Clay and Turtle capitalized on with a small stomp from Turtle and a MASSIVE tail slam from Clay

just as The Golden Guard tried to get back up, Tsunami whacked it with her tail, and broke one of its arms off with her pipe.

“I am…a loyal subject…of The All powerful, Amazing, Unrivaled Intellectual Whirlpool…So how can I have lost…” As the puppet finished speaking, Tsunami broke its puppet head off with a strong whack from her weapon, beating it

“That’s simple, it just proves Whirlpool isn’t shit.” Tsunami stated, smirking as she did so, before her body began to finally feel a strain on itself that came with unlocking her Persona. By all means, she should had collapsed or felt a need to fallback, but Tsunami kept herself up, taking deep breaths, as she then glared towards Shadow Whirlpool

“How about that eh?!” Tsunami said, as Shadow Whirlpool slightly backed away

“So Tsunami really did have the potential for a persona too…” Turtle vocally thought, while Clay went close to Tsunami in case she ended up falling over

“You did great! Now let’s finish this guy off!” Clay told Tsunami as the 3 now fully turned to “King” Whirlpool, who seemed strangely…calm

“Hmph! You seem to be forgetting whose castle this is! And just who pulls the strings around here!” Shadow Whirlpool stated, as he raised his hand out, and suddenly a gigantic puppet descended from the roof of the hall, cradling Whirlpool in its hand.

“WHOA! It’s the biggest puppet of all!” Turtle voiced out, shocked at the size of the puppet, which seemed to he covered in tacky pearls and jewelry that when Clay looked at to long almost made his eyes hurt, it appeared to also have by far the most strings attached to its body, with strings putting a constant smile upon its face, and its color scheme seemed only slightly different to Tsunamis, which made Clay and Turtle slightly confused, and Tsunami even moreso when she pieced together what, or more accurately who the puppet was based upon

“MOM?!?” Tsunami shouted in shocked, as the Coral puppet began to cradle Whirlpool more gently in its hands before raising him upward

“How many times until you idiots understand! This is MY castle! This is a place where I can do whatever I want! Where everyone does whatever I want them to do!…That is, everyone besides slow-witted buffoons like you!” King Whirlpool shouted from atop

“Damn it! Turt, explain!”

“I said not to call me that! Anyways, that Coral puppet seems to be similar to those slaves we saw before, aka, a being made from Whirlpools cognition of her! Just like he sees the students as slaves, he sees your mother as nothing but a powerful puppet he can get to do whatever he wants with a few gestures!” Turtle explained, as they all continued to look above at King Whirlpool and Puppet Coral, as King Whirlpoo began go relax upon the puppets palms and look down on them with a relaxed pose, this time putting his eyes towards Clay

“Hehe, are you jealous, boy? Though, I guess someone like you is familiar with a queens hands! Unlike you though, I’m smart enough to embrace it!” Whirlpool mocked, as Clay immediately had Obsidian try to fire at Whirlpool, only for the puppet to take the hit with one of its paws.

“Clean these peons up this instant!” Whirlpool shouted, as dozens of other guards appeared, ready to attack

“We’re outnumbered now, we need to get outta here!” Turtle told them, as Tsunami looked baffled

“We’re not gonna do anything?! Come on! We can take these guys!” Tsunami protested, as Clay simply tossed her onto his back

“Tsunami, I don’t want any of us to die here, and I don’t want that puppet anywhere near us, let’s just go for now. Besides, we need to take down Whirlpool from the outside as well.” Clay explained to her as he made a dash for the exit with Turtle close behind

“Thank the moons you have a level head!” Turtle told Clay, as Tsunami while holding onto Clay began to shout to behind them

“WE’RE GONNA EXPOSE WHAT YOU REALLY ARE NO MATTER WHAT! YOU BETTER BE READY FOR OUR WRATH YOU SICK TOAD!” Tsunami shouted, as Whirlpool began to just cackle from the top of the palace halls.

***

Clay and the others had successfully made their exit, with them all catching their breaths after it all, as Tsunami got off of Clays back, and did some small stretches and breathing before speaking

“…Anyways! I don’t remember changing into this!” Tsunami said, as she began to look at her new attire, which consisted of a large black jacket over the upper half of her body, with her then noticing a metal vertebrae attached to the back that seemed to have to parts which stretched out towards the holes for her wings, and then noticed on her front was a red ascot that went downward. On the lower half of her body was dark blue pants that featured holsters on each side. To top it all off was her dark silver skull mask, which appeared to have 3 pointed edges at the top part of itself

“It looks good on you.” Clay told her, as Tsunami gave a look that was a mix of happiness but also confusion

“Should I be happy about that???…Then again, it ain’t as bad as yours.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Clay asked, genuinely confused as how she could ever think her costume was even close to as nice as his

“Quiet down you two! We’re not completely out yet!” Turtle told the two, as he finished catching his breath, clearly not having much stamina, as Tsunami began to take everything in more

“What exactly is going on? Why’d I get this outfit that’s better than Clays?” Tsunami asked Turtle, as Clays simply gave a silent glare

“It’s ike I mentioned before! When a persona user approached a Palace’s ruler and becomes a true threat, this happens. It prevents you from being affected by distortions.” Turtle explained, as Tsunami began to touch the mask on her face

“Is this…a skull?”

“Seems you can figure some stuff out. Your appearance reflects your inner self. It’s the rebel that slumbers within…though, I doubt you get it still.”

“Nnnnnnope.” Tsunami admitted

“Then can you just stop asking questions for even a little while! Just accept what you see!” Turtle told her, as Tsunami rolled her eyes

“Easy for you to say…” Tsunami said with an annoyed look, before a possibility hit her and made her audibly gasp

“Damn it! We’re in deep shit! We might’ve gotten outta here, but Whirlpool will be waiting for us! And probably have real lackeys ready!” Tsunami said, as Clay also began to look worried

“That’s sharp for s dummy like you! But just relax, Whirlpool in the real world can’t possibly know what happens here. A shadow is the true suppressed self, the side of one’s personality they don’t want to see, and don’t want others to see. Think back to when you guys first exited here, Whirlpool didn’t remember that right? It’ll be the same here.” Turtle told the two, calming them down

“That’s good then? Then all we gotta do is-” Clay said before Turtle interrupted

“Hold on now, I cooperated as promised, so now it’s time for your part of the deal. It’s why I’ve been so nice to you morons on teaching you the basics.” Turtle said, surprising the other two

“Cooperate? What do you mean?” Clay asked

“Don’t you remember? I’m here for an investigation. I need to erase the distortion from my body and regain my real form! That’s why we need to delve into mementos and why we need ti-”

“Whoa, hold on. What’re you going on and on about? We never said anything about helping you out!” Tsunami said, leaving Turtle shocked, appalled, and perhaps even dismayed

“Huh? Don’t tell me you don’t plan to repay my hospitality?”, Turtle asked, then turning towards Clay, “Especially you! You plan to leave so soon? Even though you are already part of my master plan!? Oh the indignity!” Turtle continued, who though he was clearly being flowery in his words, was very visibly stressed from this, which couldn’t help but make Clay feel a little bad

“Hm, I can’t just leave him in the dust…but, can I really trust him still? I feel like I can! But should I? My guts been wrong before…damn it, I’m thinking about what happened then because of what Whirlpools shadow said… was he right? I mean, if I hadn’t done anything I wouldn’t be in this predicament, maybe it was my fault- no, Clay, focus on Turtle, distract yourself as much as you need for now, and think about Turtle and your supposed deal…deals, I also had one with that Stonemover-”

“Hey! Are you even listening!” Turtle asked, interrupting Clays entire train of thought

“I’ll make sure to think about it, alright?” Clay told the little dragonet

“Whuh?! Oh I see, it’s because I’m not human right? Because you think I look strange! Is that why you’re making a fool of me!?” Turtle squeaked

“We’re busy, alright!”, Tsunami told him, before bending down towards him, “Thanks for everything though, ya cat eyed weirdo. You’ve got guts, being so small and cat like and all! See ya!” Tsunami told Turtle, before grabbing Clay by one of his front talons and running off

“WHAT THE HELL!? UGH, WHY ARE YOU JUST WRAPPING THIS UP LIKE IM JUST SOME SIDE CHARACTER! GET BACK HERE YOU BLUE AND ORANGE MOOFMUGGETS!” Turtle yelled out, still trying to think of what to do

***

“You have returned to the real world. Welcome Back”

“Phew! We’re finally out!…woooo.”, Tsunami said, catching her breath once again alongside Clay as they rested in an alleyway next to one another, “I dragged you around a lot, huh?…Sorry.” Tsunami told him

“Oh don’t even worry about that, there’s nothing else I’d rather do than help you right now. It’s a pretty good distraction all things considered.” Clay told her, giving her a light pat on the back and smiling

“Heh…thanks…Ugh, I’m more tired than a corpse…How you holdin’ up?” Tsunami asked

“I feel like I need a meal and a 15 hour nap minimum, so…probably not well.” Clay answered honestly

“Well, you don’t really show it, ya practically seem like you could do that all again tough guy! Man, imagine if what we saw was for real, this is gonna get goooooood! I remember every face we saw back there! Once we get em to fess up, Coral ain’t gonna have no excuses, and Whirlpools gonna be done!” Tsunami thought out loud, excited to finally get some payback

“It’d be the least he deserves after what he’s done.” Clay responded, as Tsunami excitedly nodded

“That’s what I’m talking about! Ha, you rock! So ya wanna help me look for those dragons and any other potential witnesses?” Tsunami asked

“You betcha I will!” Clay told her

“NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!”, Tsunami said in response as her and Clay high fived, as Tsunami then began to calm down and shift her eyes while looking away, “Hey, so…if you’re thinking of laying low cause of the record…I think it’s already too late. Everyone already knows, I don’t know how, but they do, even if some confused the other Mudwings with you for a sec. They all got you pegged as some criminal monster.” Tsunami told Clay, as he had a face of shock and despair

“But…how…the only ones who could’ve leaked it that fast are Coral, Orca, and…him”

“Whirlpool must’ve opened his damn mouth!” Tsunami answered

“But why?! I’ve never done anything to him in the real world!” Clay asked, trying to figure out at the same time why he seemed to always have something go wrong for him at every turn lately

“It doesn’t matter what you did to him personally; that asshole will wreck anything if he thinks he’ll get something from it! Piece of shit lusts after all the praise, power, and control he can get! He’s doing to you what he’s done to everyone, trying to break you down til you snap, just like he did with me!”, Tsunami said, slamming her front talon into the ground and putting cracks in it, before calming back down, “…No one takes anything I say seriously…it feels like most people just see me as some angry butt of a joke…”, Tsunami said melancholically, “But even then, if those rumors are real, we gotta do what we can to stop him, and after seeing his distorted heart in person, there’s not a snowballs chance in hell I can sit back and do nothing!”

“I feel you on that. I’ve been where you have as well after all…and now, we can do this as a team!” Clay said, making them both perk back up

“I’ll be counting on you then! You watch my back, I’ll watch yours!” Tsunami told Clay, as they entangled their tails in agreement

“I sense a great bond of trust between me and Tsunami…”

I am thou, thou art I…

Thou hast acquired a new vow,

It shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity,

With the birth of the Chariot Persona, I have obtained the winds of blessing that shall lead to freedom and new power.

Clay had sworn he heard a voice somewhere, when suddenly, him and Tsunamis stomachs simultaneously grumbled

“Oh…right, we haven’t eaten since lunch…well, it’d be weird for us to split off now, so how about we grab a bite somewhere? You were hungrier earlier anyhow.” Tsunami asked

“Sure! What kind of food were ya thinking?” Clay inquired

“Oh! Just follow me! Trust me, you’re gonna love it! Oh, while we’re there, is there a chance I could ask about your past! I know it’s personal and all but I’ve been dying to know!” Tsunami told him, and Clay thought about it for a moment before deciding to do it, and followed right behind her.

***

CW:Attempted Assault, to scroll past, go all the way down to the next ***

That night still echoed in Clays brain, the night everything was taken from him…

It had been a celebration of Skywing and Mudwing relations, with it taking place in the Diamond Spray Delta by the express request of Moorhen, not only because it was one of the borders The Mudwings shared with Skywings, but because she wished to show a grace to all citizens, even those who were considered “lower born”

Clay had been one of those lucky to attend the celebration, with him and Umber being the ones to convince the rest of their sibs.

“Come on, you guys know I’ll protect you!” was words Clay remembered speaking back then, but he never thought they would truly be put in danger…

It was later into the night when things had gone wrong, Clay had been preparing to leave with his sibs, and was looking around for Sora after realizing he couldn’t find her

It was then he found her, with a Skywing Female looming over and trying to hold onto her, clearly intoxicated

“Come onnnnnn, I’m just asking for a night in my palace is all! I think we can have a reeeeaaaaaalllly…whatever, just come on!” said the intoxicated Skywing

“I said no! Leave me alone, please!” Sora yelped, as Clay began to rush over

“don’t say no, that’s just hurting my feelings!” The Skywing said, brushing her claws against Soras face as Clay stepped in between them

“Look, you’re intoxicated, but that’s no excuse! back away from my sister, and go off somewhere else! preferably home!” Clay had told her

“Oh I get it! You’re just jealous! No worries, I can easily have ya both y’know, you just gotta come with me is alllll” The Skywing said, suddenly gripping both of Clays arms and getting close to his face

“Back off!”

“Oh don’t be like that! We’re just having fun”

“I SAID BACK OFF”, Clay yelled as her broke her grip on his left arm and he smacked her down with his paw, knocking her straight into the mud next to a puddle of water, “…three moons! ma’am are you okay! I’m sorry, I just wanted to get you off of me!”

“Ugh…I’m…”, The Skywing began to speak, as she then saw her face in the puddle, and the tiniest scratch upon the right side of her face caught her eye, “You…YOU DAMN DELTA TRASH”

***

“That’s about as much as I’d want to get into…after that it all spiraled towards her causing me to have to leave my sibs with Reed as the de facto Bigwings. And if I break probation, or go home, she gets to decide what to do with me…” Clay said, not even touching his food as Tsunami finished her first batch

“WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HER! HOW MUCH SHITTIER CAN THAT BITCH GET!? ACTING LIKE SHES SOME DAMN BIG SHOT, AND EVEN IF SHE WAS THAT SHIT AINT RIGHT.” Tsunami yelled out

“Tsunami, we’re in a public space…” Clay said, trying to pick away at his food now to distract himself

“YEAH BUT HEARING YOUR STORY JUST PISSES ME OFF, ITS PEOPLE LIKE HER I CANT STAND.” Tsunami said as she began to wolf down her second batch

“I get it, I really do.” Clay told her, as he finished his first batch and began to eat his second

“Yeah…y’know, we’re more alike than I originally thought.” Tsunami said

“Hm?”, Clay replied with his mouth full, before swallowing, “How so?”

“Well, it ain’t exactly a how, but…y’know. I guess it’s how we’re both treated like pains in the ass by the people around us, and how we weren’t able to get the justice we deserved y’know? And ended up outcasts because of it…I did something stupid before, even if it still feels right to do, my life also went to shit because of it…ugh.” Tsunami began to scarf down the remainder of her second batch

“You’re living in a town a bit more in the west called sophistication right? It’s a bit of rush right now in the big paths from here to there. You might wanna kill some time before heading over.”

“So that’s what it’s called…”

“You didn’t know the name of the town you went to???”

“Nope, my aunt just gave me some coordinates and to meet some coffee shop owner she knew down there.” Clay admitted, finally finishing his second batch

“Huh, alright. Well, anyways!” Tsunami put down some coins to cover her and Clays meals

“What are you doing? I can pay it myself y’know.”

“Ah come on, just consider it my thanks for your help, alright?” Tsunami told him, giving him a grin as he reluctantly gave her one back

“Just know this man, I got your back as long as you got mine. Neither of us are gonna be fighting uphill battles on our own anymore, alright?” Tsunami asked

“…Alright! Just leave it to me, and we can even take down that Whirlpool guy!” Clay told her, as they smacked their wings together and gave one more grin

“Hehe, just wait, Whirlpool. We gotta start right away tomorrow! First, we’ll talk to the people kept as slaves! They’re gonna have Anemone putting on a magic show tomorrow, reccomended by Whirlpool himself, ugh, makes me wanna gag.”

“They’re using her magic so frivolously?” Clay wondered, having heard rumors about the corrupting power of Animus magic

“Heh, take a wild guess who made everyone start to think otherwise. Whirlpools been claiming Animus magic doesn’t affect your soul at all, probably after secretly forcing Anemone to use her power over and over in his training. Bastard probably didn’t care if she did break.” Tsunami explained

“That poor girl…” Clay solemnly said, as Tsunami also had a momentary look of sadness before straightening back up

“Yeah, but at least with that, we got not classes in the afternoon! We can walk around unnoticed. Well, I guess we can work out the details tomorrow…wait a minute, aren’t you kinda eating too little?”

“I don’t know what ya mean”

“Yeah right! You’re like twice my size! You gotta eat more than that man, or you’re gonna get malnourished!” Tsunami told him

“Come on, it’s fine, I don’t wanna eat at your wallet like I eat at this food y’know.”

“Come on! ClayClay! Do it!”

“don’t- don’t call me that again.”

“I will if ya don’t listen to me.”, Tsunami jokingly threatened, as Clay sighed and began to eat a little more, “That’s what I’m talking about! We’re celebrating, ya gotta eat til you’re full!”

“Alright alright. As you wish milady ‘nami.” Clay joked

“Eugh, don’t call me that.”

“You sure ‘nami?”

“Do it and I’ll call ya ClayClay for a month!” Tsunami said, as the two were momentarily silent before cracking up, as the duo continued to enjoy the rest of their time at the seafood restaurant.

I figured we were going to go the "are you my daddy?" route, but still I'm genuinely surprised that the boys, especially Donnie, haven't even considered that Ghost might be an alternate universe Donatello. I understand that they arent aware of the existence of alternate universes, but Donnie has done research and has a whole cork board dedicated to the subject, WITH PHOTOGRAPHS of three different iterations of the turtle's, all of whom bare a surprising resemblance to Ghost! At least, more so than the Rise!Turts anyways. Meanwhile, Ghost is a mutant turtle who wasn't created by Draxum, is practically a genetic clone of Donnie, is trained in ninjutsu, has a super genius iq, wields a bo staff, wears a purple mask, has brothers who are very similar to the boys, a mutant rat for a father, and was separated by his family in a way that requires a special portal machine to get back to them. Honestly, the fact that Ghost can only return to his family via portal machine should have been a big clue. Like, why is a portal the only way for him to go home? Where on earth is his home if no traditional travel methods can get him back there?

Pizza Pit hasn't happened yet, so Donnie actually hasn't done research with photographs of the different turtle iterations! And keep in mind that Donnie felt like he was copying Ghost. Everyone but Ghost thought that Donnie was just modelling himself after Ghost because they're both intelligent. Favorite color purple? Well he might as well try out a bo staff since that's what Ghost has...

Donnie was aware of a parallel dimension as an option, but he saw Ghost being his dad as more likely. His next best theory is that he's an alien of some kind. Or at least from a different planet, even if he was created on Earth.

GITS: Do you have any plans on reuniting Ghost and the boys with the rest of the 2003 turtles? Maybe in a "they're here now (Rise verse), they're looking for him (Ghost)" possibly after the Kraang situation (once they've grown)??

Spoilers! :) I promise a happy ending. What that means, I cannot say.

At this point the feeling of being pulled in two different directions is so strong I feel like the best case/least painful solution is having some sorta inter-reality doorway that could allow back-and-forth between Ghost’s world and Rise, kinda like how the dimensions in 03 work with the Battle Nexus. I know it’s unlikely, but I’m in denial and will take comfort in the absurd mental image of being able to do ridiculous things like traveling to another reality to borrow a cup of sugar

The 03 Turtles knocking on the interdimensional doorway "hey guys yeah can we have some sugar because the methodical destruction of all but small patches of plant-life on our planet making everything uninhabitable has made it difficult to get some."

OH MY GOSH THE LAST CHAPTER OF GITS HAS TURNED ME INTO A PUDDLE OF EMOTIONAL JELLY!!! THANK YOU!!! Question time: you said previously that Ghost’s colour pallet was going to change to match the rise one at some point. I assumed that it was going to be because of his mutation from getting stung, but the whole ‘being filled with bright neon colours thing’ and feeling more at home and like he has a place in the Rise world in the last chapter is making me think that it’s going to be triggered by emotions instead. Are the boys going to notice? Will it be commented on? I cannot wait to see Ghost’s reaction!! Also, I’m assuming that when his colour pallet changes the effect of physics upon him will also - I cannot wait to see Ghost get hit hard and then be like ‘I’M FINE??? WHY AM I FINE???’.

Spoilers! But I promise it'll be mentioned more blatantly in the story when it does happen.

I LOVED the last chapter of GITS!! A big difference between the 2003 TMNT and Rise is that the 2003 turtles are not biologically related to Splinter in any way, and they possibly aren’t biologically related to each other either. They are just four turtles and a rat that happened to be in the right place at the right time to get mutated. Splinter became their father because he CHOSE to be. They are a family through CHOICE. I love that you are carrying that on into GITS!! Biological relation doesn’t matter to Ghost - why would it? It’s a legacy of love he is passing on to the Rise boys, and I think it’s beautiful.

For 2003 it's very likely that they're biologically brothers, because they were sold at the same time from the same pet store, likely from the same tank. They were probably a part of the same clutch! But Splinter taking them in definitely taught them that choosing is important. Knowing April and Casey, meeting the rest of their friends, the turtles know. They know what it means to choose family. Biological relation has never mattered to Ghost. Even if his brothers weren't biologically related to him at all, he would still feel the same about them.

It's kind of why Ghost doesn't understand Rise Splinter well. Why would he choose to take in these kids when he acts like he doesn't want them half the time?

stuck on the idea for months that like even if in canon sainw is happening in live time while ghost’s with his kids what if his brothers just show up one day as teenagers and are like “we’re so sorry it took us so many months to get here we fought to find you with every second of the day” and ghost’s just there like “IM IN MY F O R T I E S WHAT ON EARTH DO YOU MEAN MONTHS” and that’s how everyone discovers that the rottmnt dimension moves time at rocket speed in comparison to 2k3

Referencing the GITS ask about 16 yr old 2003 Donnie finding newly mutated Splinter and Turtle Tots; what would change for Splinter? He suddenly has this 16 year old to deal with that’s expecting him to be amazing and wise to go along with horribly mutating into a rat and massive amounts of trauma. Would having 03 Donnie there help, or make things worse for Splinter? Would Splinter give in to his depression and mental health issues earlier because 03 Donnie is there to watch the babies? Does he feel the need to parent 03 Donnie? Does the fact that 03 Donnie has gone through some traumatic experiences make Splinter more determined not to train the Rise boys or convince him that they need training for their own protection when they are old enough? Also does Rise Donnie get given a different name because 03 Donnie is there? If he gets given his cannon name, what do the Rise babies call 03 Donnie when they start to speak? (Sorry this has so many questions - this idea kidnapped my brain and wouldn’t give it back)

I imagine Lou (because he is still Lou at this point) would feel responsible for Don as well. Don is scared, he just got separated from his family, he's been through shit. Don calls his dad "sensei" or "father" or "Master Splinter", so Lou wouldn't use Splinter as a nickname. Don would also be talking about his brothers. This boy spills everything instantly. Lou immediately knows everything about their lives. He doesn't tell Don about his, because he's still just a kid. He's younger than Lou was when he left home to be a movie star.

Don being there would help and make things worse. On one hand, Lou feels guilty for the days he can't help Don, and it feels like Don's doing everything on his own. Don helps look after the kids, he helps fix up the lair, he helps set up security, he's working on his portal. He just works all the time. The only way Lou can get him to stop is if he asks him to watch the kids. And it does sort of let his depression seep in a little faster, because he's got someone covering for him.

He still parents Don. Tries to take care of him, tries to teach him. Don is the one who approaches him asking for training, because he's been doing it his whole life, and he enjoys it. It gives him a way to let out energy when his mind is tired and he wants to rest it. It reminds him of his family, makes him feel closer to them. He still goes out to do patrols every night, still saves people in trouble as quietly as he can. Lou worries about him, but he can hardly stop him from doing what he wants. He isn't Don's father. It makes him more determined not to train the little ones, but they'll end up mimicking Don, wanting to know what he's doing. Don ends up teaching them little things. Lou and Don probably get into a big argument about it.

I think all the Rise boys would get different names in this case, because Lou knows Don's name and his brothers' names. Raphael would be Alessandro (Sandro), Donatello would be Masaccio (Masa), Michelangelo would be Angelico (Angie), and Leonardo would be Titian (Ti).

From the elaborately choreographed dance number the boys pulled off in “Mascott Melee”, it’s obvious that they spend a lot of time practicing dancing together. Does Ghost ever catch them at it? On a scale of 1-10 how adorable does he think it is? Have the boys ever put a little show on for him? Do they ever try to get Ghost to dance with them? CAN Ghost dance?

Watching them dance? They do it all the time, and Ghost enjoys watching. He's never joined in, always insisting he can't dance. They try to get him to join in, but he just refuses. He likes watching them more. CAN he? I feel like Ghost can dance in the same way that Aang from ATLA can dance. His fighting is his dancing.

For some reason, despite not really wearing clothes, all of the Rise boys wear pj's. Do they ever get ghost pj's? What is his reaction? Does he actually wear them?

I like to think they get a lil chilly at night and that's why they wear PJs. Sometimes Donnie sleeps entirely nekkid (Purple Jacket) so I imagine it depends on what they're feeling at the moment.

The boys 100% get Ghost pajamas. They're strawberry PJs. He loves them and wears them especially in winter.

Anonymous asked:

Do the boys ever play their music for Ghost? What does he think? How does he react in front of the boys?

The boys definitely play their music for Ghost! He listens to it and sees how they can enjoy it. Personally he likes classic rock the most but he's not terribly picky, either. He tends to go with "I see why you like this song" kind of vibes, even if he doesn't like it personally. He likes hearing their music. Gives him a little insight to the inside of their heads.

Anonymous asked:

GITS: Were April’s science fairs any less of a disaster with Ghost there to supervise?

Nope not at all. If anything they were even crazier. Ghost didn't help out with April's science projects! He let that be an April and Donnie thing. He does has helped April with her science homework occasionally if Donnie was too busy.

Anonymous asked:

It was awesome to see Ghost and Splinter actually start to get a little closer in the last chapter. I think they both need it - they need to see each other as the actual people they are rather than the shadows of the people the represent to one another.

Yeah, they do. It's a slow process. Splinter's starting to learn how Ghost likes to be cared about, and Ghost is starting to see that Splinter actually cares.

==================

Anonymous asked:

Does Ghost have an opinion on Lou Jitsu and his movies? And does Splinter know what that opinion is? What is Splinter’s opinion of Ghost’s opinion?

Before Ghost found out that Splinter was Lou Jitsu, he enjoyed the movies quite a bit! They reminded him of something his Michelangelo would really like, of movie nights with his brothers. Splinter overheard Ghost's opinion of the movies from his boys, and from Ghost. He's very pleased that Ghost likes them.

After Ghost finds out Splinter was Lou Jitsu, he stopped watching the movies unless he was watching them with the boys. It just made him think of how different everything was. He's learning to enjoy them again, slowly.

Fluffbruary - Day 10 (strong)

Tenth day of @fluffbruary, using the prompt "strong"

Read on AO3

French version

-----

"He can't."

"Don't underestimate John, Lestrade."

"Never can he carry you, you're too big!" Greg insisted.

For the past five minutes, the two detectives have been debating John's strength. No one could remember how they got to this kind of topic, but when the doctor went to take a break to support his natural needs, the two men began to argue their point of view.

"There's only one way to find out." Said Sherlock mischievously.

Greg sighed with a tired smile. "I'd like to see John say yes to carrying you in front of my entire team." The image he creates for himself makes him want to laugh

"Who says I'm going to ask him?"

Greg wanted to contradict him when John walked back into the office. The latter stopped when silence fell in the room just after his entrance.

"Is everything okay?" John asks as he sees Greg's tired expression and Sherlock's grin. 

"Yes, yes. Sherlock still thinks he's right but I'm convinced he's wrong." Greg growled. John is sure that Sherlock will be the reason he retires. After several years of knowing him -supporting him-, he more than deserves his years of rest.

"Oh?" He said as he sat down. "On what."

"Nothing, it's forgotten." Says Greg, sending a look to Sherlock. Don't. The latter's smile widened. John frowned. He didn't like it.

But the rest of the hour went well. Sherlock complained, Greg grunted, John sighed. All normal after an hour of detailing every interview with the suspects in their ongoing investigation.

It was when they finally left the office, Greg accompanying them to the elevator, that the policeman realised what was going to happen. Sherlock stopped abruptly, John continued on his way, indifferent to his oddities. The detective smiled at Greg before launching himself at John.

"Catch!" He shouted, and Greg felt like he was in front of one of those magic shows where he feared for the assistant's life even if something like this were to happen, it would be removed from the final cut before it was broadcast.

John's reflexes take over and catch Sherlock as he throws himself on him like a kid trying to land on a mattress. He doesn't wobble, doesn't fall, and to everyone's surprise, John Watson, at five feet seven tall, holds a six-foot Sherlock Holmes perfectly without shaking under the weight of the dark-haired man. It looks so easy, like an adult carrying a newborn. 

Perched in John's arms, carried like a princess, Sherlock smiles proudly.

"Sherlock. Can you explain to me what you're playing at?" John asks, slightly annoyed with Sherlock.

"Graham was convinced that you couldn't carry me. I'm proving his assumption wrong."

Greg can't deny that he lost. It's been almost a minute and John hasn't moved. He promises himself never to underestimate his friend's strength.

"I'm not going to lie, I like it when you show your strength." Said Sherlock in a low voice so that only John could hear.

John smiled wryly. "I see. So if I keep you like this, you won't mind?" Sherlock winked at him. John turned to Greg. "Sorry Greg, but I think Sherlock is right for once."

"For once?" Said Sherlock, indignant. The two friends ignored him.

"Good thing I didn't bet anything." Laughed the policeman.

Everyone in the office and open space watches as the two lovers and their friend say goodbye and John continues to carry Sherlock to the elevator without looking tired. 

Once the doors are closed, he takes possession of John's mouth, Sherlock's arms around his shoulders holding him, even though the detective had no doubt of his doctor's strength. 

"I'll show you how strong I am once I get to Baker Street." John whispered between kisses.

"With pleasure, Captain Watson." 

During the next case, no one dared to insult Sherlock, at the risk of upsetting John.

Genuine

  "Sherlock," John locked eyes with the detective,"you are bloody gorgeous."

  A very prominent blush crept up the other's neck,"I-I erm…"

  "And adorable, look at that,"He leaned forward and smiled. John knew for a fact that he was one of the few people who existed that could actually catch him off guard, and by god this had to be the best way to get those gears in the detective’s head to stop.

  Sherlock broke eye contact and tapped nervously on the table,"You're getting too direct with your flirting."

  "So you've noticed?"

  He nodded and looked around the room, still refusing to look at John,"So- uh, what,” Sherlock cleared his throat, the telltale signs of embarrassment peeking through,”what brought this up?"

  "It's just been eating me up for a bit,"He propped his head up on his hands,"And I'd… I’d like to kiss you."

  Those few words caused Sherlock's entire system to malfunction, a small sound of shock barely escaped his lips. For a moment, John found it rather endearing that his friend was an actual blushing virgin, but as soon as the spell broke, he wondered what the consultant's response would be,"Me..?"

  "Yes, you."

  "I have to confess that I do not possess much experience in this area-" 

  What had once been a quiet morning in the kitchen of 221b ultimately transformed into… this. Not that either of them were complaining, they were finally clearing the tension that held strong between them for years, however… jolting it felt.

  "You're a fast learner," His tongue swiped along his bottom lip,"I don't think it would take long for you to pick it up."

  "Is that an offer to teach me, Dr. Watson?" he whispered, not trusting himself to keep a steady stream of words in his current state. Said “state” could be summed up as "confused, turned on, and extremely giddy".

  The quiet flirt back made John more than happy,"Of course, I'll even do it for free 'cause you're being so cute about it."

  The detective huffed, crossing his arms and slumping in his seat,"I am not cute."

  "You're proving my point right now. Pouting with those sinful lips of yours."

  "I-" at this point, his mind may as well be fried because it felt absolutely useless. Not a single deduction could be made by John's smiling face, only the word 'mine' over and over,"I-I give you… permission."

  "Permission?"

  "Yes," with a bit more confidence,"I know you're a man of morals, and you wouldn't do anything without explicit consent- so I consent to you."

  John stood, making sure not to move too fast, he didn’t want to frighten Sherlock in this exposed mindset,"And you are aware that you can take that consent away at any time?"

  A slight nod,"I know."

  "Alright," He brought a hand to cup Sherlock's jaw, lifting his thumb to run across his bottom lip,"I have watched these lips for years," John dipped his head down a bit, milimetres away from Sherlock's face,"I always wondered how they would feel on mine."

  "Care to find out?" his breath ghosting along John's skin.

  "God yes."

  Sherlock closed the small gap, lips barely pressed together. It was his first time being so close to someone he loved, and understanding that this was all new to Sherlock, John let him control the pace. It was soft, tentative, tender, they reveled in the intimate contact. They had been craving this for years, and now here they were. The spark that had lingered became a roaring fire, all from a small, genuine kiss. 

  After a moment, John pulled back, realising that the detective had ceased all effort to function,”Breathe.”

  His eyes remained closed as he sucked in a lungful of air,”More please,” Sherlock blinked a few times before sending John the most desperate look he could muster.

  “How could I say no to my brilliant detective?”

I know a few people have taken a crack at the whole Zodiac thing, so I thought I’d give it a try! I can feel these Zodiac signs fit the turtles very well 😏

I going into detail with these lovable turts 😩💙❤️💜🧡

Of course because of how detailed I went into this, I have to do one turtle at a time.

For now I will go into their personality and then do a whole different section pertaining to their kinks and how they would be under the steamy sheets.

SOOOOOO…..Let’s get to it!! EXTREMELY LENGTHY I AM SOOOO SORRY. This could help write stories too :)

Leonardo !

Our amazing hunk leader in Blue.

💙Nicknames:💙

-Leo

-Leon

-Lamenardo (Raph gave him this nickname)

-Lee (Pretty much all of his brothers call him this)

-Fearless (Raph coined this)

-Blue (Also given to Leo by Raph)

-Monk (Raph’s)

-Splinter Junior (Raph’s)

Can you tell Raph loves Leo? LOL

He has been described as:

-Stoic

- Brave 🌟

-Attentive

-Sweet

-Straight forward

-Head strong🌟

-Mother Hen

-Straight Daddy Material 🌟

-Bossy

-Confident 🌟

-Brown Noser (Raph and Mikey’s)

-Splinter’s little Birdie (Raph’s)

-Teacher’s Pet (Raph’s)

- Stubborn (he is really stubborn in his beliefs. Tend to think his opinion is the only one that matters. Again, he’s still a teenager and is still learning.)

-Determined

-Protective 🌟

-Listener

-Competitive

-Obsessive

-Controlling

-Insecure *surprise* *surprise* (he’s a teenager and not quite sure who he is. Still figuring it out.)

💙ZODIAC SIGN:💙

Sun sign ARIES with the moon sign Capricorn.

Now I know what you guys are thinking…..wtf?? Isn’t that Raph??? I’m gonna say -NO.-

N.O. NOOOOOOOOO.

💙Here are my reasons 💙

💠 These two signs combined create a perfect balance. And Leo is literally PERFECTION in the flesh. I’m not being biased here. I do love my turtles, but he was made to embody Ying and Yang.

💠Gracious but strong, this turtle will not have anything or anyone stand in the way of his plans and goals.

💠Highly Competitive

💠He struggles internally because he bottles everything up/ self-contain, but at the same time tries to be creative 🥺

💠PLANS AHEAD because this gives his mind some peace when he knows he’s got it figured out and he knows what he has to do.

💠Practical

💠Insecure….now I know you guys might not see this, but I do. Some of the things he’s done or does screams insecurity. Sometimes that’s not a bad thing. It’s apart of growing up and he’s a teenager for Christ sakes!

💠Obsessive….now this comes from the cannon that Leo has OCD. (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) This is nothing to make fun of and it’s a very serious mental illness. Me personally, I believe he has OCPD instead of OCD. (Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder.)

💠He would love too meet someone who is just as dedicated and believes in commitment

💠ASSERTIVE AS FUCK

💠Hard Worker and will work harder for family and people that mean so much to him.

💠He is impactful. Trust me you will not forget him.

💠Perceptive. He will be able to handle different people in different situations.

💠He knows when to be soft and when to use a little bit more force.

💠He will treat the people he loves with respect. Respect is huge for this guy!

💠He is really sweet on the inside and gracious, but very strong and very determined on the outside.

💠He wants his ideas and opinions to be of use, not just to be launched in thin air.

💠An Opportunist!

💠He will recognize a trouble maker and problems from afar!

💠As Aries you would think he’s impatient, but he isn’t like other Aries. He has Capricorn on his side which graces him with patience.

💠He would be very career oriented

🐢I will be doing a relationship one soon and a more 18+ rated one for Leonardo soon! 🐢

📝/[Memo] ( I forgot the memo thing when I sent Kezzie's u-u;; But uh - gimmie the Bunny boy! Either verse )

| Send me 📝 and i'll give you a random amount of headcanons/facts about my muse! So i'mma set this up like this first things that apply to all my verses and then spefics one and then stuff for our muses specifically uwu cause Bun bun on my mind so I have lots to share and say XD.

~ Usagi in truth falls in love very easily. Hes a bit of a hopless romantic, where he struggles is actually confessioning his love. Because of this first love.

~ Usagi's first love was Mariko from his home village/city. Who he lost to his childhood rival/friend. Which has always kind of sat with Usagi.

~Because of this Usagi has fallen in love a few times but has also had his heart broken a few times.

~ Usagi is a vegetarian maybe obvious since he is a rabbit after all but, he will panic if he ever eats meat by mistake somehow. Going so far as to purify himself with rituals and salts if need be till his guilt is washed away u_u

~ No matter the verse Usagi is very competitive and doesn't know how to stand down from a challenge. Even verbal ones.

~ Usagi when he is mad will do the mature thing and show his back to whoever pissed him off. He also puffs out his cheeks.

~ Usagi always tends to use people's full names with honorifics (Josielynn is an expectation)

~ Usagi may seem cool calm and collected but he has a pretty bad temper.

~ Usagi can purr uwu and umm if you want to hear it pet his ears, if he likes you he'll let you untie them even if it feels nice and will leave him a purring content bun uwu

~Usagi actually takes pride in his appearance and is good about him grooming habits

~Next To Leo I think Usagi would get along with Raph well because he does have his own anger issues. I could see them enjoying sparing

~ Usagi has no idea what Donnie is ever talking about but he is always impressed and does tell them this which likely compliments them or for rise Donnie hits his ego ~ Usagi always treats Mikey like a younger brother happy to give them his attention

~ Openly swears without care

~ Can sleep with his eyes open, and yes it is creepy to see sometimes he does it without realizing it. ~ Is introverted and a bit shy

2003 verse

~ After he tried to help Leonardo in (The episode I won't shut up about u_u ) he actually stopped talking to the turtle for a time because he felt he failed his friend and wasn't able to help them in the end (also cough cough rp wishlist thing here uwu cough cough)

~ actually has a cellphone given to him by the turtles. In his dimension, he keeps it off to save the battery its a very old model phone though XD

~ The more romantic of the three when it comes to being a partner.

~The most likely to charge into a fight when challenged

~Has a strong dislike for ninjas but the turts especially Leo are expectations to him.

~ The more willing to open up, but only to those he trusts

2012 Verse

~ Usagi is seen as being virtuous and perfect but he has been described as being possessed by a demon, and demonstrating a blood lust when it comes to fighting.

~ I like to think this is what Jei may like about Usagi, seeing how he himself is a demon. And this is why they broke up Jei brings out Usagi's 'worst side out but because he loves so strongly? he can't truly let go of them uwu

~ Usagi has a hard time letting others in, so used to his life of solitude

~Is the most adverse to PDA, won't even hold hands. Alone though with his partner? then he far more loving and softer. He just won't allow himself to be seen in public being soft even with an s/o.

~Alone? then yes you'll get kisses uwu

ROTMNT

~ When Usagi and Leo have fights, or if Leo upsets Usagi somehow he only refers to them as Hamato for the whole time he is upset.

~Leo can be jealous yes, but Usagi? can be very ridiculous when it comes to being jealous

~ Usagi despite his confidence actually is a bit insecure when it comes to his and Leo's relationship due to his first love and heartbreak. It's why he confessed to future Leo he assume they broke up. It's a kind of fear of his to lose someone he loves (ironic considering what I have to happen to him uwu)

~ Only two people can get Usagi to agree to pretty much anything Leo and Josielynn. ~Easily folds to puppy-dog eyes he knows it and those who use them on him know it too.

~Has let Josielynn put makeup him before

~ rabbits will rub thier cheeks against things to mark them with thier scent, and Usagi tends to nuzzle his cheek against Leo a lot. This is why Leo is always getting covered in white strands of fur XD. Usagi refuses to not nuzzle his boo uwu.

~ Isn't against PDA like holding hands and little kisses here and there, but will get flustered over nicknames or terms of endearment being used. Or a loudly more expressive display of love like s/o yelling out across a crowd they love him. It will fluster him.

~ despite this I’m pretty sure Usagi old publicly declare his love for Leo if Leo was being stupid enough to think there’s someone out here better for the rabbit. He will shout from the roof top if he has to! XD

~ The least subtle of the three, especially since he tends to express his emotions the most physically.

~ Normally he refers to Leo as Leonardo-san even after they date and get married uwu. But sometimes he'll call them Leo it's rare when he does so. He just respects Leo far too much

Jotaro

~ Spoils the heck out of the baby

A New ROTTMNT Fanfic

Super Turtles AU: Green Menace~! https://archiveofourown.org/works/35078365/chapters/87377080

I’ve been working on a new fanfic about the turtle boys~! It took a while to draw them hehe~!

It would be amazing if you could check out the prologue~! ^>^

I’m also lookin’ for someone who would like to draw my 4 turtle boys better than me haha. I would be honored if you’re willing to draw them~!

(Leo's supposed to wear a black jacket he can transform at will with regular elements in the pockets. He also wears torn pants~!)

Please hit me up in PM’s if you’re interested c:

Thank you all so much! =^-^= Your support means the world~!

Also, big thank you to @thigo99 for lining up the turts and the amazing background ^o^! Also big thanks to @b1uejey and @kittypancake for helping me with ideas and tips~! More information about the AU below~! Powers of the turtle bois: Mikey: Animal Morphing & Animal Telepathy Raph: Obedience Manipulation & Bending (objects) Leo: Shapeshifting & Allurement Donnie: Electrical powers & Hacking Weapons: Mikey: Paint bombs. Being able to change into the animal he draws on paper. Talk to animals to convey messages or let them do commands.

Leo: Two bars of metal he can change into a weapon of choice. Though, he loves to have double swords. He got emergency vials in the rim of his fedora.

Raph: Likes bending wood into boomerangs. Uses his surroundings as weapons next to his fists. He does wear gloves as protection.

Donnie: Likes anything he can use electricity to use. Mostly carries amplifiers for this reason. He makes weapons like toasters with battery ammo he can fire with. Weaknesses: Mikey: Mikey needs to draw the animal before he can transform into them. Though the strength and chance of him getting it right depends on the surface it’s drawn upon and the quality of the drawing. Drawings in the sand that take less time have more chance of failing and are less powerful. It’s why Mikey carries a utility belt with paint bombs, paper, and other paint to draw the best animal he can. Since it’s more accurate then.

Raph: Can only bend if he believes he can. For Raph's obedience manipulation a strong urge to follow his command is needed. The strength he has varies from the seriousness of the situation and how sure he feels of himself.

Leo: Sometimes shapeshifts into pure water to bully Don. Needs to really focus to be able to transform into the right thing. Also needs his vials if the material is hard to grasp. If the enemy gets distracted by a noise, Leo’s allure will not work. His powers will then have no effect.

Donnie: Can hack any system in the world! If he can maintain 100% focus for 5 minutes straight. His electricity makes him sensitive to pure water. Non-pure water is a good conductor for him. Don and Leo could partner up due to this or Leo can bully his brother, since Leo can transform into both.

If you're doing smut, how about hcs about the first time with them or losing your virginity to them?

All these turts are virgin but I'll also make the reader a virgin... because i can >:) (p.s. tried so hard to refrain from being comedic it was so hard) under the cut because i feel sinful

Leonardo:

•knees weak when it comes time. He tries to be so gentle with you and undressing you was one of the most testiest things Leo has ever done. Patients was a virtue to him and he thought it'd never break but now...

•Leonardo seeing you naked for the first time gives him goosebumps and a sinful shiver ran down his entire body. Feeling the way his body reacted to just seeing you made him hard. His first time with such a beautiful partner infront of him.

•He tried his hand at foreplay just like the in the books and videos but the skin on skin contact caused a painful throb. Pants finally off, it lays against your thigh oozing with precum. A shameful, red tint covers his rounded cheeks. You need to reassure him that this is the best reaction he can have.

•"Is this okay?" Leo's voice is breathless as he slowly rocks against your cunt. Making a puddled mess against the bed spread. When he finally presses into your soaking core it takes all his will power not to spear you. His hands gently touch you, whispering encouragement in hopes to ease the pain.

•When he finally hilts himself within you, and leo recieves the ok, he pulls out to the tip and gives a long stroke. Both of you are trembling and begging eachother to go faster, harder. His hands now pin your wrists down as he drives into you. Peaks reaching he cums hard and his body shakes the pleasure driving you to cum along with him, both grasping and pleading with eachother. Leo feels lucky that his first time is with you...

Raphael:

•This wasn't planned at all. He came over to enjoy a movie with you, to cuddle and hold you close but here he was. You underneath him and gasping for more has he grinded against you, lapping and sucking at your neck. His hard on was rubbing against the soaked fabric of your panties deliciously, his hands gripped your hips like a vice.

•The movie was long since forgotten, an action moving playing in the background and heavy panting filled the small bedroom. Raphael frantically pulls his boxers down and tugs your panties to the side. Circling your clit and rubbing your folds, he takes a moment to caress your skin. Enjoying the way your body reacts under his touch.

•"Yer doing so good for me princess." Raph's accent was heavy, his voice like gravel.He uses his forefinger to adjust you, slipping in and out of your tight cunt, pulling whimpers from you. As you're getting tighter and the spring inside you coils up he pulls away onto his knees. The head of his cock glistening against the light of the tv, his thighs quake with the built up pressure.

•With all his mental strength Raph slides into you. The preadjusting having made you gush around him. Raphael wasted no time moving and the headboard was being slamed against the wall. His grunts and your wanton moans grew higher and higher in pitch as he slams his hips against yours. You gripped his dick like a vice as you came, loudly begging for him. The strong pleasure causing him to tip over in ecstasy.

Donatello:(ie. The gamer chair)

•He had been coopued up in his lab all day. When you came to get him he was hard to pull out of his chair, "Just keep me company while I finish this." He patted his leg as an invitation. You sat, cradling his lap, head on his chest. Donnie didn't have trouble in the beginning but you then started to adjust yourself. Your hips rocked against his innocently as you grabbed his shoulders in an attempt to pull yourself closer.

•next thing you both know he has his hands grabing at your ass. And the chair starts to squeek beyond the buzzing of the monitors and electrical wiring. Your whispering in his ear as he starts to buck and meet your hips. Donnie's lap was hot and the outline of his dick showed through his pants. In desperation he pushes the chair away from the desk and has you stand to pull your clothes off. His member propped against his stomach, twitching in want.

•When you sit back down he makes work of your clit. Rubbing fast and articulate with the idea of making you wet enough to take him. It takes one soft orgasm from dons hand to make you wet enough. It takes two pumps of lube from his drawer to finally have you sit. Your fingers claw at his shoulders as he stretched you out, desperatley shimmeing down.

•You both are gasping as you finally sit back on his lap. Filled to the brim and squeezing him tight as you grind your clit against the lower part of his plastron. It takes him smacking your ass to get you bouncing. In fear of his brothers hearing your little escapade, he smashes his lips against yours. Your practically breathing eachother in as Donnie grips your thighs to cushion the sound of your butt claaping against his thighs. You're speeding up and the chairs lumbar starts to shake with it, biting at eachother's lip and tounges moaning into eachother. It takes Him reaching down and rubbing your clit to have you gush onto his pajama pants. Seeing your sopping cunt take him in and arching your back to press closer causes him to shoot into you. His grip surely leaving bruises.

Strong Hugger - Headcannons (fem!reader)

request? yes/no

How about the turtles with a short around 5'2 but sweet s/o who gives crushing hugs and is scared to hug people cause she knows they hurt. And they don't train or anything they just give unnaturally strong hugs

a/n: I’m trying to get to as many requests as I can, so please be patient! But I’m having so much fun writing these, your guys’ requests are so creative ! <3

warnings: some swearing! besides that, none :)

Leo:

Honestly would probably not care that much

Because he literally wants to squish you all day everyday

You give strong hugs? No problem, so does he!

He’d make sure to let you know if you were hurting him (he’s a ninja for god’s sake, he can handle a strong hug)

He’d be obsessed with your height

Constant chin-resting-on-the-top-of-your-head hugs

Pulling you into his lab because you’re so tiny but even if you’re taller, he’d do this anyway, especially when he’s meditating since you relax him

Raph:

Calls you “shorty” 24/7

Is super into the height difference

Since he’s one of the shorter bros, he appreciates your height a lot

Makes him feel super dominant (but to my taller girls, you know he’d be into it too, y’all seen how much taller Mona Lisa is compared to him)

You’ll climb into his lab while he reads magazines and just chill

Strong hugs?! His hugs are even stronger 100% (c’mon, it’s Raph we’re talking about)

Is super into you giving strong hugs because y’all will just squeeze each other

Donnie:

Since he’s the tallest, he finds the height difference super hot

Will 100% let you sit on his lap while he’s working on something in his lab

Likes to sniff your hair when you’re in his lap or rest his head in the crook of your neck

Can I get a (s)hell yeah for top of the head and forehead kisses, because this turt’s gonna give ‘em to ya

And I mean, yeah sometimes you might squeeze him too hard when hugging him, but he’ll let you know whenever you’re hurting him

He knows you mean well! 

He’ll squeeze you too, y’all could literally hug each other for hours

Mikey:

Being the shortest of the bros, he loves the height difference (again, for my taller folks out there, y’all seen his girl Renet? She towers over him!)

Picks you up and throws you over his shoulder

Cuddlescuddlescuddles (ofc you’re the little spoon)

You can literally curl into him like a baby and he fucking LOVES IT

And with the bone-crushing hugs, he would be so into it

Since he’s so deprived of affection, he will literally squeeze you just as hard, if not harder

He actually likes it though, like it genuinely makes him so happy

Hi @macrauchenia! Here is your gift for @tog-secret-santa! Hope you like it!

A day from a leader's life!

Summary: Rak is a great leader and has many responsibilities. It's not always easy to take care of them, but is nothing he can't he handle.

Warning: This story take place in the Season 3 of the webtoon so it contains some spoilers.

Rak Wraithraiser is the great leader of the most known team from the Tower. Rak knows that, as a big and fantastic leader like him, he has a lot of important things to do every day. It's hard, but he is strong and he wants to get stronger.

And because he has so many things to do he made a list:

1.Go to sleep early so you can get stronger

2.Wake up early so you can get stronger

3.Drink water so you can get stronger

4.Eat so you can get stronger

5.Train so you can get stronger

6.Get stronger so you can be stronger and so you can punch blue turtle when he makes fun of you

These are his normal duties every day. Simple, but helpful.

But as a great leader, he has more duties than the normal ones. Because a leader has to make sure his teammates are in a good condition.

Sounds easy? Well..most of it is easy.

He has good teammates. The warrior turtle and tracksuit turtle are the most responsible turtles from his team. They know the importance of a good schedule and they take care of their health as everyone should do. The red turtle and useless turtle don't disturb Rak, because even if they don't do much, they eat and drink as much as not to make Rak worry for their health. The lizard and the ghost eyeball turtle are making his life hard sometimes but is nothing he can't deal with. Even the new turtles that joined their team, like the big-eyed turtle, are having normal schedules so Rak doesn't have to worry about them.

But in every team exist the black sheep. In Rak's team, these black sheep are a certain blue turtle and black turtle. Rak is 100% sure that two turtles never heard about a good schedule before or about taking care of their health. Oh, no! Because these two are the most self-sacrificing,  STUPID turtles Rak ever seen.

Every day, he has to take care of them to not push themself too much and every day Rak feels he lose his sanity a little bit more.

But as a responsible person, he made a list of how to take care of the two idiots too.

First, he has to wake both of them up. This is the easiest part because the three of them go to sleep together, so he knows his turtles slept enough to have the energy for the day. But sometimes, they like to fuck his brain cells and that morning was one of these special times in which Rak knew his sanity will deteriorate.

When Rak woke up, no one was in the room. He sighed knowing what is going to happen and went down to the kitchen.

Exactly as he expected, the blue turtle was typing on his light-sparkling cube with a mug in his hand and the black turtle was arranging on the table the plates with food.

"Black turtle, you made the breakfast for everyone...again?"

"...yes"

"From when are you awake?"

"Uhm...5 minutes?"

"YOU CAN'T MAKE BREAKFAST FOR EVERYONE IN 5 MINUTES!"

Rak felt a vein was going to explode. He approached by Khun and looked straight in his eyes.

"And you, blue turtle? When did you wake up?"

"10 minutes ago and I made myself some coffee! Now leave me alone, stupid gator.

Rak looked around and spotted on table three other empty mugs in which he was sure there was coffee. Rak felt his blood boiling.

"That's your fourth coffee, blue turtle!" Rak said and Khun twitched. Rak knew he caught Khun with the lie. He wanted to punch both of them, but he refrained.

"....I can drink 4 coffees in 10 minutes!"

"THAT'S WORSE!"

Rak grabbed with his claws the two boys and threw them back in the bedroom, ignoring their complaints.

"Each turtle needs to sleep for 8 hours! Go back to sleep! I'll wake you in an hour!" He heard the two groan, but Rak knew they were going to do what Rak told them. Even if they do stupid things like this, Rak can trust his turtles.

"Stupid turtles, ruining my schedule!" Rak murmured, going back in the kitchen to make sure his other teammates turtles are taking care of themself.

The second thing he has to do is to make sure the two turtles eat properly. And this is where the chaos starts.

Black turtle doesn't have a big problem with eating adequately. He learned in FUG the importance of three meals in a day and 2-3 snacks. The black turtle's biggest problem is that he forgets to drink water. But this problem is always quickly resolved by Rak throwing a bottle of water in the black turtles' head and says: "Drink it!".

Instead, the blue turtle is eating his days! If Rak can make that idiot have three meals a day he can consider it a big victory.

"BLUE TURTLE THAT'S YOUR FIFTH COFFEE AND YOU HAVEN'T EATEN ANYTHING YET!"

"I am not hungry! I'll eat later."

"THEN STOP DRINK COFFE!"

"I need coffee to function!"

"EAT SOMETHING AND DRINK WATER!"

"NO!"

Rak feels his blood boiling. If this is how he wants to play, then let's have fun.

"Gator what are doing? PUT ME DOWN!"

"Blue turtle refuses to eat, then I have to make him do it."

"I already have told you I am not hungry...mhmp!" Khun couldn't finish his sentence, because Rak shoved a spoon with food. (because the others can't cook, all the food was prepared by Bam, so no one was poisoned!)

"If the blue turtle doesn't want to eat alone, I have to force him! You can try to escape, but nor you nor I will leave this place until the plate is empty. Oh, I almost forgot about the water."

"Gator..."

"More you complain more we will stay here!"

Khun shut up and ate.

The third thing Rak has to do is to make sure his turtles are training in a proper way. And by a proper way, he means he has to make sure these stupid turtles don't overwork themself.

At this part, the blue turtle is more reasonable, because even with his firefish, his stamina is not the best. Khun's problem is when he is working on his lighthouse too much, but Rak knows how to handle this. All he has to do is throw himself on the lighthouse and Khun will stop, because he knows Rak will do that again if he continues his work. On the other place, the black turtle... likes to eat Rak's brain cells.

"Black turtle, the training finished! Why are you still here?"

"Huh? Oh, uhm...I wanted to practice a bit more, so I remained after you all left."

"Wait...you were here all this time?"

"...maybe."

"THE TRAINING FINISHED 4 HOURS AGO!"

"Uhm...yeah, but I really need to practice this attack more so I can b able to use it in the next battle..."

"I DO NOT CARE! IF I CAN FORCE BLUE TURTLE TO EAT, I CAN FORCE BLACK TURTLE TO STOP TRAINING TOO!"

Rak took Bam and put him over his own shoulder and left the training room. Bam said nothing, knowing the fact that even the smallest sound will make Rak even angrier.

The fourth thing Rak has to do is to make sure his turtles go to sleep at a decent hour. This is both the duty Rak detest the most and the one that makes Rak's life a living hell. Why? Because those two can go 3 days without sleeping if Rak wouldn't be there. But even if it is hard, Rak has a perfect plan.

The first step is to find the two turtles. This is the easiest part because he knows exactly where they can be. If they are not in the kitchen or their room then...

Bam is, again, in the training room.

"Black turtle?"

Bam looked at his friend a little scared, knowing Rak is going to scream at him.

"Time to sleep."

"It's just 11 pm! I am not tired so I'll stay..."

"I DIDN'T ASK IF YOU ARE TIRED OR NOT! I SAID IT'S TIME TO SLEEP, I DIDN'T ASK IF 'YOU WANT TO GO TO SLEEP'!" Rak grabbed Bam by his waist with his claw and took him up going to get the blue turtle. Bam said nothing more.

Khun could be in just one place...his office.

"Blue turtle, time to sleep!"

"You don't know to knock at the door? And what are doing with Bam?"

"The same thing I am going to do with you too...put you to sleep."

"What? You are not my mother. I can go to sleep when I want!"

"You understood wrong, just like the black, turtle so I will explain again: I DIDN'T ASK IF YOU WANT OR NOT TO GO TO SLEEP!"

Rak took Khun in the same way he took Bam and went to their room, throwing the two boys in their beds.

"Ugh...gator! I have plans and strategies for the war to do! I don't have time to play with you!"

"Khun..calm down a bit, please. I don't Rak is playing."

"Black turtle is right, blue turtle! Now go to sleep!"

Here comes the second step begins: Make these two sleep.

"I said sleep!"

"We can't fall asleep in 5 minutes, gator!"

"IT PASSED AN HOUR ALREADY!"

"Sorry, Rak...me and Khun aren't used to go to sleep this early!"

"Yeah...I mostly go to sleep at 4 am."

"Same or an hour earlier."

"THIS IS NOT A PROPERLY, GOOD AND RESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR! You two sleep or I will apply force and I am sure none of us want this scenario to happen, but if I have to I will."

Another hour passed and finally, to Rak's happiness, his turtles fell asleep. Rak sighed and took two blankets and covered Khun and Bam. He sat down on the floor, looking at them, his eyes softened at the sight of the two sleeping boys.

Rak finished all his duties so, he can finally relax. He kissed the two boy's foreheads and stayed in the silence of the night, the only noise that could be heard was their heartbeats.

As he always does, Rak stays and looks at Khun and Bam, and remembered everything they went through. He remembered how many times he almost lost them, how they thought Bam was dead for 7 years, how Khun became cold and closed his feelings in him. How Bam was hurt by Rachel again. How he almost lost Khun because of Rachel and how for two years he was in a coma. He almost lost the blue turtle again after they woke him up. His turtles are always in danger and Rak...and Rak is afraid that he will lose them.

Tears were falling from Rak's red eyes because just when he is alone with the night he can give free rein to the emotions he hid in his big heart because behind his mask of a strong leader, Rak was a good friend who cares about his two precious turtles.

And...as in every night, he put his claws on the two sleeping boys' hearts, wanting to make sure these two are still there with him. He was watching at them and said:

"God Turtle...if you really exist, please listen to my prayer. I will make sure these two will eat and drink water. I will make sure they won't overwork themself and I will make sure they will sleep 8 hours. I will make sure they are not hurt. I will take care of their health. I will even make these two idiots realize they are in love with each other. I will get stronger so I can protect them. I will fight for their safety.  I will do all of these things so please God Turtle...please...if you really are there...if you really exist...please...I'll do everything I need to do to take care of them so please...don't take blue turtle and black turtle away from me again."

I am confused about Laird views on 2003 turtles being asexual. Mirage is fine cuz it’s his baby and he’s never had them make a pass at anyone. 2003 turtles did have crushes though. How does he explain those? Raphael asked Joi out as one example. Dating. He liked what he saw more than a friend. (Maybe he finds it gross so is in denial of 2003).

Hi there~ :D I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the Ask, and that I do apologize for this INSANELY late reply to it! :’( Life just got a bit outta hand these past months. Sorry, again... 

*Giggles mischievously* This is quite the delicious little topic indeed, so let’s explore it, shall we? :D

Personally, I think that is exactly what the case was all about; Mr. Laird most likely didn’t want people thinking he’s supporting mutant animal x human relationships (cause we know how some people can take things too literally) and thus denies there’s anything going on. He’s just protecting his self image... However, we can’t always deny what’s been shown to us.  I’m not even gonna pretend to know how animation/production companies operate, but I’d assume that there’s an entire team of storyboard artists and writers that have a say in what gets shown in the episodes and not just the two OG writers that worked alongside them. For if it were the case that he had all the say in it, and claiming that he’s so against the very notion, Mr. Laird would probably have cut out all indications of interspecies relationship material altogether... Not that it would have completely stopped the fans, but the point is that there was definitely enough material in the series - and deliberately added - to support pairing theories. 

Namely...

Any fan of the 2003 series (and just about any other incarnation) knows of the drama circling Leo and Karai. Though I myself am not a fan of this pairing, one cannot deny the undertones; We know Leo’s a patient and understanding guy, but the sheer number of chances he gave the kunoichi was nothing short of insane! You can write it off as nothing more than a strong desire that she’d repent (because he views her skills as something that should be used for good?), and he does in fact give many other skilled fighters chances to become good too... But it was especially excessive with Karai, even knowing full well that she was the adopted daughter of his family’s sworn enemy. No, I think there was a little somethin’ somethin’ hinted at there~ ;P Especially with the way they’d sometimes look at each other. Heck, it took her attempting to take out his entire family for him to finally say enough was enough. 

Raph definitely felt something for Joi with the way they’d always be around each other. There’s no denying it. Some even view that he and Angel were being hinted at, though I personally like to think it was more of a ‘protective-big-brother-clingy-little-sister’ situation.

And everyone and their dog knows of the famous DonxApril ship. Don even has a photo of her in his bedroom! Probably a bunch on his computers too.  The two share a lot in common when it comes to tech stuff and, like Raph and Joi, are often in each others’ company. Granted, the closer April and Casey got, the more Don seems to fade from the picture, and he wasn’t shown to be visibly upset by their marriage, but the idea that he had a crush for a while was definitely there. Not to mention that, out of all four brothers, Don seemed to have the most ‘close’ encounters with woman in the series, e.g. April, Renet, Jhanna, just to name a few...

Now, Mikey’s an interesting case; unless you count his flirtatious first encounter with April, he doesn’t seem to develop much of an attraction to any one particular female character in the show. This could simply be catering to his more child-like nature and he’s yet to develop in that regard, but he is also the one Turtle I could believe is possibly asexual simply due to the lack of evidence otherwise displayed. If all the Turts were portrayed in the same manner, then I’d say I could agree with Mr. Laird’s statement, but judging by the others’ behaviour... I’d say that claim is a stretch. 

All in all, though, if I had to look at the series with a critical eye and not with my usual shipping-potential goggles, I’d have to say that the writers purposely wrote those scenes in with the option of the viewers to interpret them as they see fit. They simply gave us just enough material for something to be there if someone chose to see it that way, and if not, then it’s all still pretty innocent. ;) Neither is incorrect. 

Those are my thoughts from I gathered anyways. :) Then there’s Mr. Eastman’s 2012 incarnation that basically flushes the idea of them being asexual down the toilet if further proof is required. X’D But they’re not my favoured Turts so...

Thanks again for the Ask and so sorry again for the lateness.
