Would they use CGI or practical effects or puppeter in your TMNT actor AU? Also I wanna know some stuff about the salamandrians in the actor AU- (Can you tell what kind of animal person I am-?)

A mix of CGI and practical effects. It all depends on the situation/scene they are doing. So something like April using her psychic powers or Karai's mutant snake arms, CGI. But an explosion, Mikey's zits in that one ep, or Karai's snake eyes/skin in her human form, it be practical effects/makeup.

Characters like Fugitoid and Metalhead would be animatronics that the actors work with on set. Fugitoid's human self (that we see in canon through flashbacks) would be a voice actor rather than an on screen actor. He'd recorded his lines then the crew would add his lines in during the editing process after filming.

As for the Salamandrian characters, in the AU, Sal, Mona along with all the other alien characters in the show are actually mutants playing alien roles. In the Actor AU, humans and mutant both exist, but aliens are not real.

Sal in the AU is a popular actor who has played many roles in his life, the younger actors like the Turtles and April look up to him cause he was basically their childhood! He is both an actor and voice actor, and has even done singing roles too (he's got a lovely voice).

Mona is a more fresh and new actor, who's parents are acting legends and she wants to follow in their foot steps and make a name for herself. Mona is also naturally fit and can do most of her own stunts. She actually had a kick boxing career when she was younger before she started acting, she her having some experience in fighting helped her get the part.

Newtrailzer is an actor who always gets casted as the villain and can even do his own stunts. Sadly though, he was a man with a busy schedule and other acting gigs, so they had to kill off his character in season 2, but luckily he made some time to reprise his role so the director found a way to bring him back for season 5.

[this-world-of-beautiful-monsters]

violently smashing my two major fandoms with an F together as a form of procrastination

A question for the ages: WHICH Avatar character matches up with WHICH Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle one and WHY the fuck should anyone (besides me) care? We'll answer at least one of those questions for you tonight, dear viewers!!!!

First up

Neteyam - Leo

Eldest son, blue theme (like I could say this for all the Sullys, but shush), can do no wrong except when one of the siblings stubs a toe and then the Guilt, daddy's favorite solider who's also a huge dork (like we don't see a lot of evidence of this in canon for Neteyam but let me have this), Neteyam's Untimely End vs Leo getting treated as such a punching bag by each TMNT iteration that throwing him through a goddamn window is an established franchise staple by now.

Kiri - Donnie

A case can be made for April-Kiri parallels (particularly for psychic powers re 2012 April, my beloved, and dead mom syndrome) and also Karai-Kiri (for dead mom syndrome, how often I've mixed up their fucking names while writing), but Kiri-Donnie fits the siblings theme, so there. They're tech nerd-nature nerd solidarity, autistic Entities of unparalleled death and destruction, happy to destroy government property, younger siblings pretending to be above the Chaos while very much not, and in desperate need of a nap and a stiff drink.

Lo'ak - Raph

Rage issues. Daddy issues. Big brother issues. Relatively smol and Keenly aware of that fact. Adored by the (smart) fans, cursed by Eywa/God. Makes strong bonds with animal fwends and also collects traumatic experiences like magnets collect nails. 100% either in a fistfight or sobbing into his pillow rn. In a family living at the bottom of a fucking sewer and/or on the run from the government, still manages to feel like an odd one out. Someone needs to introduce Lo'ak to emo music, it would fuck him up so much /pos.

Tuk - Mikey

Youngest and most excitable sibling, heart of gold and jaws of steel. Optimism that remains in the face of innocence slowly being shaved away by Events. Hates being left out or left behind, committed to various Schemes and Plans with historically mixed outcomes. Has definitely either killed a man or will do so as soon as the opportunity presents itself.

Spider - Karai and April

Spider's kind of an unholy amalgamation of April's Token Human We've Shared Traumatic Experiences With journey and Karai's At Odds With Creepy Undead Father Figure And Complex Relationship With Less Creepy Father Figure (see below) arcs. Basically part of my ongoing psyops plans to Feminize That Boy (don't worry Karai-Kiri and April-Kiri parallels, I still love you). Also, Leorai/Apritello and Speteyam/Spiri (mix and match at will) have exciting interspecies and/or vaguely incestous vibes we should all strive for in our weird fanfics.

Jake - Splinter/Hamato Yoshi

Tired dads trying their best and just so happening to raise The Kids as soldiers-warriors along the way. Exciting and confusing relationships with the concept of this thing you call "death." Shameless species hoppers, even though Jake did it on purpose while TMNT writers in various iterations have to come up with increasingly more convoluted ways for it to happen to Yoshi against his will. Is not afraid of violence, especially when it comes to their homoerotically homicidal relationship with

Quaritch - Shredder

Big Bad of the story, or at least the one everybody pays attention to. The Bitch Who Refuses To Die. Unhealthy, possessive, genuinely quite creepy (/pos) obsession with sort-of-kid who ended up in his care through Unfortunate Means. Will destroy everything he remotely cares about and sit in the ashes with surprised Pichaku face before finding someone to blame. Refuses to let go of a fucking grudge, be it with aforementioned homoerotic-homicide buddy or various children.

Neytiri

Technically the best Neytiri parallel in terms of family relationships would be Tang Shen, Splinter's wife and the pseudo/actual (depending on the iteration) mother of his children. However, Tang Shen has an unfortunate history of being Dead Girled and Ghost-Momed in a way that puts her more in common with Grace or Tom Sully (rip). Still, Neytiri has a lot in common with the vengeful demon ghost version of Tang Shen that exists primarily in my head.

BONUS

Payakan - Casey Jones

Outcast from society, defender of the weak, wanted by the authorities. Combines genuinely passionate belief in justice/revenge with an equally genuine talent for wanton violence and destruction. Has an interspecies bromance with Lo'ak/Raph that puts Achilles and Patrocles to shame. Someone definitely needs to introduce Payakan to emo music, too, not to mention death metal--he'd start a band to put those Little Mermaid fuckers to shame.

Questions? Comments? Concerns? Arguments? (you're all wrong btw) Only know me from one of these fandoms and have no idea what the hell I'm taking about? Hit me up in the reblogs!

TMNT “Ghost of a Chance” FF Chapter 25 review

Got another review in the books, YAY ME!! :3 Enjoy guys!

Credit of story: @suthnmeh & @violette-aner

Direct link to GoaC chpt. 25: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11258484/25/TMNT-A-Ghost-of-a-Chance

——————————————————————————————-

-Ok, the chapter starting off with April’s day post ghost intervention? Yessh, talk about a rough… I did feel super bad for her when she talked about the bad events that happened throughout her day. Been there, done that girlfriend.

-Oh boy… The part where she accidentally left her homework and laptop at Donnie’s lab? Worst. Nightmare. Ever.

-Although, I did wonder why the heck Kirby sent angry text and missed calls when he knew she was staying at the lair. But then I remembered that since he’s been super antsy and anxious lately, so I guess it makes sense. 

-April worrying about Donnie from the night before: UGH protective April is my spirit animal right now!

-Casey’s entrance with all them bruises: can you say ‘typical teenage hockey boy’? 

-Casey bringing in alcohol to school… and then agrees to go to the library with April… Boi… I honest to goodness don’t know what to think anymore XD

-“’And then express-date. With ‘Moose’.” He wiggled the backpack again, the liquid contents sloshing quietly. April crossed her arms, and said squarely, ‘No Moose’.” – HAHAAAA yes! OMG I love how she keeps that lovable train wreck in line!

-That part where a piece of eraser got shot into her mouth made me shudder. Literally. That’s so gross.

-Confession.. Since reading this chapter, I actually used Casey’s “What’s your beef” comment… I learned my lesson afterwards. Never using that kind of comment in the heat of a discussion ever again.

-Damn Casey! That comment about April having to chose between normal life vs. kunoichi/psychic life? Low blow bro.

-Actually, I want to elaborate on that last point. So about April choosing between two totally different lives. Who the heck says she has to choose? Can’t she do what she said to Karai in chapter 2 and write out the chapters of her life on her own? Granted, she is only 17 and isn’t technically a legal, autonomous, adult in American laws yet, but still! Why force it? And for Casey to give her an ultimatum like that? Dude, if it was the other way around, I’m sure Casey would feel the same way that April’s feeling at the moment. Not cool. Though he is hurting, that was super uncalled for.

-OOOooooo…. That moment between April and Master Splinter nearly brought me to tears. I am super close to both of my parents and to see this side of Splinter was so sweet and touching. I love how, out of the very few adults present in her life, Splinter seems to be the only constant in her life. He may not be perfect and she does have her dad whom she loves, but I adore how Master Splinter tries to show her that he’ll be her sounding board when she’s ready. And if there’s one thing that April definitely needs in her life at this moment, it’s that.

-“You are Hamato. Whatever happens, know you can always count on your family’ - Oh my heaaaaaaaart!! SO! MANY! FEELS!

-“Michael, put that down!” – Pfft lol love that easter egg you guys threw in there!

-Ouch. Poor April. Getting dropping a showerhead and getting sprayed is no laughing matter. I’m a klutz by nature so I know the feeling.

-Oooooh April finding out about her laptop and then Donnie trying to make her feel better? Cuuuuuuuute!

-April hugging Donnie because of her gilt… I might as well just stop reading/reviewing just so I could read this section over and over again ‘cuz it makes me so happy. So sweet!

-OHMAGAWD then her smooshing her nose against his plastron bit nearly put me in a fangirl coma!

-I love how you guys made Mikey go from jokester bro to ‘no one messes with my unbiological sister’ to ‘lemme feed you’ mode in seconds. It just fits him no matter what TV series or fanfiction story he may be in.

-Sassy Donnie correcting April gives me life. Just saying. 

-“It is too much. I mean, two years ago I was just April, just your regular high-school nobody, and all of a sudden I’m this… Kraang McGuffin with superpowers who’s also a ninja wannabe. And I don’t know which version of me I like least, to be honest.” Ok… Let me stop there for a sec. First off, BRA-VO! That part right there, that’s me every freaking day. No joke, the first time I read this part, I swear I had to read it nearly four extra times because I was like, “I feel like I’m reading my own mind being played out on fanfiction… Weird”. Here’s the thing though, this is why I love April in this story. She’s playing multiple parts, working hard, and doing all of this to the point of it being unbearable, almost debilitating. And I get that. What saddens me a bit about this is that when she continues on to loosely explain herself to Donnie, it seems that she feels that she’s alone in the midst of it all. Which isn’t true, and I do hope that she both realizes it and that she’d heed Splinters advice about remembering that she can count on her family. No matter what. Ugh… such good stuff… Ok, back to the rest of the review!

-[Slow yet meaningful clapping] Thank you Donnie! Way to get that girl back to her right mind by telling her she can’t give up. Yes yes yes!!

-GAH I’m a puddle now… The part where Donnie allows her to look in his mind? And her response? The hand squeeze? Her admiring his hands??? My shipper heart is swelling big time. Bias I may be, these two will be the death of me and I’m ok with that TwT

-Lets be real though, Michelangelo secretly shipping Apritello is just stinking adorable. Like, adorable enough that it could melt both cold hearts and icecaps in my humble opinion.

-No no no no no no no no Raph… I get that you’re just trying to look out for your bro and BFF but… Nooooooo…

**Ok… That chapter had me in all different direction: sad for April, disgruntled about Casey, happy sobbing about Sensei’s words, giddy about Donnie and April lil moment, and peeved that Raph might do what I think he’s going to do… SO GOOD! Great chapter, great interactions, great everything! Nicely done and keep up the fantastic work! I should have the next few review’s up soon!

If all the Mikey from tmnt had a villain arc?

What’s their reasons would be?

Ooooh. What a good question.

I always figured Mikey would be a playful villain regardless of how he got there. I see his villain arc reasons including abandonment, betrayal, neglect, treating him as a joke, not taking him seriously, calling him worthless.

Depending on the iteration, he might have Words with Splinter.

Mikey might be a very good villain co-partner for a mad scientist. He's amazing at empathic manipulation, at biting satire and discourse. He could sweet talk anyone. He thrives on praise and love, all he wants is to make things right, but if it's twisted in the right way, he could take over the world with love. I would actually be terrified of him.

[brightlotusmoon]

*writes Mikey accidentally sticking his foot in his mouth ADHD style*

*writes other characters accepting it without yelling at Mikey or quietly scolding him for being inappropriate or bapping him on the head or shoulder or subtly stomping on his foot or shutting him up too obviously or*

Ahem. Got a little too deep there. I'm fine.

Not only did I forget that I wrote this forever ago, I forgot I used these quotes. Thank you anonymous commenter, for reminding me.

...

"Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is." - Jim Morrison

"Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love." -Lao Tzu

[brightlotusmoon]

I have adhd and I have meow and quack as vocal stims. I usually do it when I am excited or there is silence. Do you think any of the turtles have vocal stims? If so what do you think they would be.

Oh, absolutely, I think they make standard turtle sounds as stims.

But since the early 2000s I've maintained, along with other elder fans, that the boys have plenty of mammalian influence. I have an entire purring headcanon that lots of fans share.

Hoots, trills, chirps, clicks, meows - although really, it's Mikey who acts like the most cat-like. The others indulge the hell out of him.

Donnie scavanged up a few of those Shiatsu heating massage pads for Mikey to lie on while in his lab with him, while bothering Leo during meditation or kata practice, while in the weight room with Raph.

[brightlotusmoon]

Thirty year old headcanon no matter what any canon tries to tell us: Mikey enjoys science experiments, is delighted when Donnie asks for his help, and often experiments with his art, media, and culture interests using the scientific method. Although it is in fact canon in various incarnations, the fandom has always had this annoying habit of claiming that Mikey is too dumb. Stop that, fandom.

[brightlotusmoon]

20 year old headcanons updated: Mikey hiding even deeper depths when he knows keeping secrets in this family is Bad, but genuinely afraid of various types of rejection and abandonment and having his teasing attitude hurled back at him with sharper teeth. Started with 2003, increased with IDW and 2012, exploded with 2016. Rise is the outlier because Dr Delicate Touch already exists.

[brightlotusmoon]

Headcanon: 2003 Mikey grows and smokes Ghost Train Haze, Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Cheesecake, Clementine, and Pineapple Diesel. Note how they're some of the most powerful sativas.

Donnie made a little greenhouse. They bake brownies and make tinctures and balms. They have way too many inside jokes and memes. Raph wants in because he's jealous and wants to learn plants, Leo will just have a couple of drops under his tongue, just a few, whoops, uh oh Leo's high now, let's make him dance.

Headcanon that 2003 Mikey and Donnie have a secret language and when they're Medicated, it's like telepathy.

[brightlotusmoon]

Okay, fandom, I'll be postictal (epilepsy talk for "the stretch of time after a seizure") for quite a bit, and my writerbrain is receptive and churning due to the explosion of neurochemistry that often is mimicked by psychoactive and nootropic drugs.

Therefore, gimme headcanon ideas to play with. All turtles all versions all angles all ratings. Also keep in mind that the Mikey in my fanfics develops epilepsy, has known ADHD and Autistic sensory issues, and has learned to hone his empathic intuition into a razor clairvoyance.

[brightlotusmoon]

Hey @catbowserauthor I'm trying to archive all your Mikey stories that you wrote on Tumblr, using the tags. Most of those posts have me tagged anyway.

"A/N: So here's the deal. I may be borrowing a tiny page out of BrightLotusMoon's many wonderful series, as well as playing on the canon of Mikey's more empathetic nature. Yes, he is psychic - at least in some small aspect. I have yet to determine where I'll go with this arc."

TMNT fanfiction recommendation! Leo centric angst! Inspired by me, apparently!
