Whew look at you go! Had a small problem with aphids a lil while back, but after a whole lot of diligence they were banished. Still have some of the damaged leaves visible but look at all the healthy new growth!
You may be trying to take over my desk, but I couldn’t ask for a better art companion. The moss in the planter is happy with the frequent watering and shade, but the impatiens is trying to devoir the terrarium moss now too
My oxalis is thriving still, too. But it has its own space above me and isn’t trying to reach out and say hello as much.
Okay, this has been your semi annual habitat update. Back to painting.
Also, hello new followers! Thank you for liking my art.

captain price gives me such dad energy but I know the way that man is always on the job means he has hella trauma and zero time to be at home which i suggest: price is your ex-husband who despite it all you still love, but you both are adult enough to know that it doesn’t make up for the absence he has had in your and your children’s lives nor does it excuse his shitty actions due to him bottling up his emotions but it does mean when he visits and says “you look nice” after you got a haircut and he sits down on the porch swing with you he installed back when ya’ll were newly weds brings up a tidal wave of emotions neither of you are willing to speak about

I have said this before but me being self proclaimed number 1 Ryoma fan and that being possibly literal-bc even if this bro had fans before me I might’ve simply done the most for him by talking about him so much + being the first to write fics that are in depth studies on his trauma across canons-I gotta say if there’s one other character I rotate a lot that isn’t him it’s probably Kei. (Shocking it’s not Hayato even if I do think about him too- but it’s usually associated with Ryoma bc gays ��)
I’m not even exaggerating when I say Kei would be my favorite and only isn’t because she doesn’t exist in many other canons yet my brain rotates the endless possibilities of how to incorporate her. I’ve already written a fic where she’s in shin vs neo verse which worked surprisingly well but I’ve been thinking how universally she could appear in other things. (Whether it be fitting her into a idea of a possible Go team in New or just a new canon completely) I think what I’ve narrow it down to is that she could be like- in Michirus role? Like she’s the supporting female who isn’t a pilot but helps out the real occasionally which I think would align very well especially with the original manga role she has of being Hayato’s assistant. And even if Hayato isn’t grandpa mode yet he still very much is in Saotomes position at that point. Not sure if she’d Hayato’s biological kid to further parallel Saotome and Michiru given well Hayato already adopts the Go team and his wife is irrelevant LOL.
I have no idea if I’ll ever write this specific idea but I’m still- rotating it cause this is such a easy way to get around “picking between Sho or Kei as the 2nd pilot” since both of them can still exist even if one doesn’t get to pilot, idm my supporting females. (Granted there could always be like- plot line where Sho gets hurt so Kei is temporary pilot but I can’t remember if Getter ever really did this since “once your hurt your ass is basically replaced” lol)

Thinking about Yoshi doing rat stuff and how his uncles feel about that. Like Yoshi is a rat mutant who got mutated when he was about a month old - this kid has zero memories of being human and looking at photos of himself as a newborn makes him feel weird, because in Yoshi's mind he's a rat, not a human.
At first, whenever he acted more like a rat toddler than a human toddler, I think it really worried his uncles. He couldn't talk yet, so they couldn't ask him why he did that and the parenting books they had were no help.
Taling to April wasn't much good either - June may not be entirely human (Utrom/Kraang genetics inherited from April), but she was more or less a normal kid. April had never had to worry about June climbing up walls with her claws, chewing through metal, and had no answers for all the strange noises Yoshi made. It takes them a while to figure out which bruxing means rat nephew is happy and which means he's distressed.
This is a kid who needs new stuff to investigate or he'll get bored and start destroying something. Before he was old enough to entertain himself, the Turtles spent as much time as they could finding things for him to do. This was properly one reason Raph and Casey taught him how to spray paint, as well as how this version of Splinter gets into smithing. Like if he gets bored he can paint something or make another sword! (Ageswap Yoshi has so many knives, it's ridiculous.)
The Turtles have to be careful about introducing new scents into the Lair cause there's a chance it'll confuse Yoshi and his sense of smell won't be able to make up for his terrible eyesight and he'll got lost on his way to the dojo.
The first time the Turtles saw porphyrin coming out of Yoshi's eyes, they pretty much screamed. They thought Yoshi was bleeding out of his eyes and were all in various stages of mental breakdowns thinking Yoshi was deathly ill and they'd failed to look after their nephew. Finding out that hey, it's okay, that's completely normal for him, its not actually blood, had them all either laying on the floor or going off on their own into a quiet room to stare at the wall for a while.
If Yoshi gets stressed out about something, they have to stop him from scratching himself or trying to chew on his own tail.
This kid has no poker face at all. His ears and whiskers are always giving him away, which is great for them knowing when he's lying, but terrible for being a ninja. This also gets really frustrating for him, because there are times when you don't want everyone to know how you're feeling, but those things give him away. Yoshi can forget about being upset without everyone knowing - he tries to compensate by pulling his hood up on bad days, but that kinda just lets everyone know he's upset and doesn't want to talk about it.
Just the Turtles and their very much a rat mutant nephew, who doesn't feel ashamed of being a rat, so doesn't bother hiding the ratty part of his nature
