Quick reminder of how adorably excited Leo and Mikey are to see Donnie in this scene.

... that is all.

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rottmnt headcanons #rise leo #His aptitude with subterfuge sleight of hand stealth and speed really push how being a ninja really comes naturally to him.#it’s arguable that his desperation for the spotlight and validation is an act of subterfuge against himself #note that when he’s offered a job as a mascot he’s fine being unknown #when he and splinter win the battle nexus Leo immediately says ‘they love YOU pops’#idk I think so much about how good a ninja Leo is #and how much his persona is more an actor #Leo as a tot is shown a natural skill at katana too so hear me out-#every Leo is a natural ninja but every Leo’s route in life is directly tied to their splinter so #since rise splinter is an actor Leo too aims for it #and he brings it into his whole life - masking always because a Leo makes what they do who they are #I think that Leo naturally falls more in line with that of a typical ninja #his eccentric performer self is his subterfuge skill just set to an 11 at all times #not that that’s NOT him - like I said it’s still undoubtedly a part of Leo #but? idk I think about little moments like Leo being the only one to choose stealth in bug busters #or Leo being the only one to almost get Gus’s dog tags in The Ninja Art of Hide and Seek (he was so close but luck was against him alas)#like- he’s clearly in his element there and he falls into those skills so easily #it’s like how everyone has skills in so many things but some exceed more in some than others do #like Raph? Raph’s the biggest Hero of the bunch of them let’s be perfectly real here. Raph is THE Hero #All the boys are smart in their own rights but Donnie is THE Genius.#and they all have mystic powers but Mikey is THE Mystic Warrior with immense untapped potential #likewise Leo I feel is THE Ninja #but yeah I love how much Leo goes for the spotlight anyway for better or for worse #he IS a performer again make no mistake! but again the way he does it still lines up with his natural ninja aptitude and I love it #Leo loving magic tricks and magicians so much works doubly well here because like #you’d think he’s focused solely on the performance flair - no it’s ALSO and ESPECIALLY the DECEPTION

Battle Nexus poisoning, except more involved, I guess. You know those times when you get sick, but you're away from home? And then you just try to lay down on a bench or on your friend/family member while trying to make it more bearable?

Leo had a pretty rough Battle Nexus experience. Good thing Donnie was there to take care of him (to the best of his ability).

recently got brainrot from @evenmoreofadisaster (which y'all should go read if u havent coz it SLAPS im in love w one and two) which somehow loosely translated to/inspired a 'what if leo and donnie were raised by big mama, living a seemingly charmed life in the grand nexus hotel as her spoiled twin babies (except for when theyre fighting for their lives in the battle nexus?)' sep au which led to me excitedly drawing a bunch of concept art...

before i realized the truth of what i'd done........

Welcome the battle nexus champion!

And his brothers

They are so happy for his brother :D

I also have some alternate versions of the drawing

The drawing that has green background and no Lineart is based on that drawing of the 2003 turtles that does the same thing. I can’t find the picture, but I’m sure it exists (I think)

I just noticed in Battle Nexus: New York, when Draxum was trying to convince the co. that they were trapped in a mind-illusion he asked where the turtles were: the colors of Leo and Donnie were switched. He mistook the twins' colors, that's hilarious!

They're basically identical, duh!

Oooo!

Art idea if you want it: A bunch of your au Red Son's interacting! (Knowing how DKR is, it probably is just a huge argument lol)

What a great chance to use the Battle Nexus, where every multiverse comes to hang out and/or fight their alternate selves! Bonus Jin and Yin, the proprietors of the Battle Nexus

Friends, fans, freaks, help me out. Share EVERYTHING about how you think the Battle Nexus and Big Mama’s businesses work

Any headcanons about the structure/technology (like about her door that looks Very Krang-Like and what that might mean), your fanfic or your favorite fanfic that has the nexus as a significant plot point and/or goes into detail about how the place is managed, stuff you picked up from canon that gives hints on how Big Mama operates (like that chest covered in bones that her turtle assistant handed her), literally anything and everything you can think of!

If you know anything about economy that would be super helpful too, you should infodump about that as far as its relevant to Big Mama (pleeease)

#almost everything Big Mama does has the end goal of “THIS WILL BE PERFECT FOR MY BATTLE NEXUS 🕷🕷🕷”#but then there was that episode where Leo says her business is obviously on Tough Times #she even said so herself when she stooped to forcing one of her hotel staff into fighting in the nexus #sidenot: she traffiks ppl right?? like when she straight up kidnapped Lou Jitsu and then the turtles #or is it more likely that they were outliers and she usually blackmails ppl into participating or something??#anyways yeah how is she in business and how does she keep it running #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #big mama #big mama tmnt #rottmnt big mama #battle nexus #rottmnt battle nexus #rottmnt fandom #rottmnt fanfiction #turtle thoughts

Man “Battle Nexus: New York” was a great episode but I do have one major gripe with it.

Like. Raph being paired up with Ghostbear? Makes sense. Works great. Works amazing, even.

Mikey being paired up with Meatsweats? Yeah that checks out!!

Donnie getting…Hypno…? I mean. I guess Donnie doesn’t like magic so it kindaaa works but Kendra would have been a much better choice to me personally. Maybe Big Mama didn’t wanna include a human or something…

And Leo getting…uh…one of the Sando Brothers???? Of all villains? Nah let’s be real, his main villain is more Big Mama herself (or Leo could be considered his own worst enemy lmao-). Hell Hypno would have probably worked better here considering their shared love for magic tricks and stuff, but Carl Sando????

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #battle nexus: new york #nah this will always be baffling to me #like no joke big mama really is Leo’s main villain so it makes sense that she’s not paired with him #given that she’s running this all #but giving him ONE of the Sando brothers?? not even both???#outrageous #hypno or even warren would have been better here tbh #at least there’s some basis there for both and either option would have been so fun #not that what we got WASNT fun it def was but the sando bro was the weak link because no one cares about him #and I would have killed for a Donnie Kendra forced team up 😭#Donnie also could have worked with Stockboy ig or hell even Repo tbh?#but Kendra is the much more interesting and fitting choice here for him imo #honestly though this post was made because I do NOT understand the choice of CARL SANDO #both of them together are forgettable enough #separating them gets rid of the one thing they even had #I remember watching and being like who tf is that #he’s got some funny moments but man anyone would have been better 😭#going back to Kendra and Donnie because I LOVE their dynamic #the result of their team up could have ended exactly the same as canon #only instead of Kendra not knowing chess it’s instead her and Donnie arguing about what the right move would be #and they never actually make a move because of it

Mikey’s intuition knows no bounds

And with that I bring part one of Mutant Manhunt to a close! There’ll be more coming, trust me, but probably not a multi-part comic like this one for a while (just to give myself a break, lol). In the meantime I’ve got plenty to share about this AU, so feel free to stick around :]

#bro i was so excited to do background rendering #and then i actually did it #and i hated every second of it #there was supposed to be even more perspective shifts to like. the actual battle nexus #but i decided i liked myself too much to go through such torture #so yeah live and learn ig #mutant manhunt au #rottmnt #rottmnt mikey #rottmnt april #rottmnt leo #rottmnt donnie #rottmnt mayhem #my art
