Here’s the 40th anniversary rise comic for anyone looking for it! I’ll upload the other ones in a morning I’m sleepy

Do you ever get that feeling when all you ate all day was 3 strawberry gogurts and a tiny bag of cereal where you lay on your stomach and it feels like you're gonna frow up because you haven't eaten anything? Yeah, no, sweet, me neither :'3

Oops.

You can see the moment Leo’s heart breaks…

BEGINNING || PREVIOUS || NEXT (SOON) MASTER POST

Hope you enjoyed this little Replica Intermission flashback as we head into the Holiday Special that happens a few years after this. To be honest, this was as much of a peek into the earlier years of the Central Park Colony as it was a character study. I really wanted to get a handle on how these boys were in their early-mid twenties before diving into the special because they become very different people by their thirties.

TED Talk below on the details of this scene...

I really grappled with the concept of how long it would take for the boys to figure out that the statue was the key. Most interpretations seem to assume they figure it out right away, but honestly, without CJ there to warn them in advance and tell them what it looks like they don't have a lot to go off of aside from Splinter's vague mention of a key. The fact that the Krang were praised by the Foot is enough to set off Donnie's alarms but... with the Foot already gone by the time the Krang make their grand appearance on Metro Tower, the connection can only be hypothesized.

Honestly, I think Donnie would still go to Raph first, a breach in conduct but given the sensitivity of the subject and fear of accusing Leo it seems on brand. Raph ultimately would make the choice not to tell Leo until they knew for certain... which they never did. So it was put off longer and longer until it finally came back to bite them all at the worst possible time. If the colony finds out what Leo did... it could be disastrous. At the same time, Leo's trust in his brothers has been shaken, though it still pales in comparison to the fresh, crushing blow in knowing that it was all his fault. ...Don't worry, he'll be feeling a bit better by the time of the Holiday Special.

Personally, I would love to see Splints using everyone else's powers, and I love that he can replicate their different ways of using ninpo, but I also have a theory.

I'm still on the train of 'Leo has the least amount of mystic power, and therefore his swords are what really generate portals'. To me, Leo has ninpo, but not enough to where he doesn't need a sword to focus his portal ability and fight with. Yes, he does create swords with his ninpo, but I think other than teleporting the swords and things attached to them (which he only uses in the movie and still needs his swords as location pinpoints), that's the only raw mystic ability he has. Anything else is an extension of the sword. (-Is my theory.)

This frame was back when they'd already 'defeated' Shredder the first time, but before they unlocked their ninpo, so this was still a regular mystic portal sword. So what I'm thinking is, before and even after Leo leveled up, Leo needed swords to create gateways. Therefore, the sword that Splinter took might have been what created the portal and not Splinter himself.

Splinter: I'm just gonna borrow this for a second. 

Something that I have kind of been think about is how a member of the Rise team has said, when asked about Splinter's ninpo, that Splinter is able to use all the Turtle's abilities which is possibly why Splinter was able to use Leo's odachi to make portals in the episodes 'Hidden City's Most Wanted' & 'Battle Nexus New York' but that also means that Splinter could have possibly replicated some of Raph, Donnie & Mikey’s abilities as well.

Something I kind of would have liked to see is Splinter using the other Turtle's abilities as well such a summoning Mikey's chains or making projections of himself similar to Raph, Splinter probably wouldn't be able to create complicated weaponry like Donnie but he could possibly be able to create projections of basic weaponry as we know that Donnie's projections aren't limited to just tech when he tried to make a shield for himself & Mikey when fighting Krang Prime in the Rise movie.

Something I kind of like about Splinter's ninpo possibly allowing him to use all the Turtle's abilities is that it is kind of a nice way to show how Splinter is the Turtle's father & teacher.

I wasn't expecting the color, but the description sounds like me🥰

This was neat!✨️🌸

Orange; love as a home

You are the laughter bouncing off the walls of your friends apartment. Loving you is like loving a lifelong best friend. You naturally put people at ease, the warm summer breeze that sweeps through the screen door and carries the scent of freshly cut grass, heat, and a summer BBQ. Love is laughter, love is your medicine.

one of my favorite HCs is that Mikey has Synesthesia - his family thought it was just him being a lil weirdo until they learned it’s an actual condition

Edit: He can see the colors of sounds, but he’s more excited about the tastes/smells he gets from them instead.

Mikey: “I could make a stew that tastes just like how you talk”

Funnily enough, the last one is me, just without the ✨issues✨

Fusion Mayhem AU

So like I said, I remade T.I.T.I.A.N. from Teenagenutant's Fusion Mayhem AU. And while I don't have a colored/digital drawing yet, i do have the og sketch of my Donnie + Raph fusion, Masaccio!

Here is the boi✨

[kattystripes14]

Kk, so I'm a little obsessed with the Fusion Mayhem AU @teenagenutant made- And I have a bunch of personal hcs and I remade T.I.T.I.A.N. into Masaccio... Soooooooooo- Time to post about that now-

Anywhizzle, have this Fusion Mayhem AU short I made called "Favorites". ---

Mikey: Y’know, with this new fusion ninpo stuff- it kinda feels like we have 6 new brothers! Leo: Well, kinda. I agree with Mike, this fusion thing is pretty sick!

Raph: Yeah! It’s kinda like when we fuse we get a better understanding of each other. Even if our fusions are different from us. I think-?? That’s what Draxum said, right Don? Donnie: Affirmative, it would seem that despite being literal fusions of our personalities, habits, thoughts, physical traits, et cetera, in these new forms we act like new people. We feel like new people. Mikey: So crazy!! And it feels kinda weird too, haha. Raph: We haven’t really used 'em much outside of fighting. Leo: Meeeeeh- Gal was kind of an accident. We didn’t mean to fuse, we were just making fun of Warren and Hypno. Raph: True! But that was the case for most of em.

Donnie: Okay but can we all agree that Masaccio is the most fabulous out of everyone? Mikey: Hah! You wish! I personally think Nino is the most dapper if I do say so myself! Leo: Yeah! Plus he’s the only one with luscious locks, unlike the others. Raph: Hey, hey, lets not pick favorites- Donnie: -Scoff! At least we have real eyebrows! And cool explosions! Leo: So? Who needs explosions when you have magic and portals? Raph: Guys, c’mon I just said-

Donnie: Aaaand we don’t look like Gene Wilder. Mikey: *Gasp!* What’s wrong with Willy Wonka?! It adds to the trickster-y magician vibe!!

Leo: Yeah!! Plus what about you? You stole our diamond look! And you guys just talk about how great you are whenever you’re Masaccio! Not gonna lie, you’re kinda self centered. Donnie: You realize you’re the turtle currently speaking, correct?

Leo: Pssh- and?

Mikey: *Wraps his arm around Leo* Face it Dee! You guys are just jelly of how magical we are! Leo: And our dripping good looks. Raph: Seriously, can we not make something a competition for once? Mikey: Says the one who’s losing the competition. Raph: Wh-! … *gets an idea* …Fine. You know who my favorite is? I like Angelico’s vibe. Mikey: Say what?! For realsies?! Donnie: Gasp!! Betrayal Raphael!!! Leo: Mikey! Remember Nino! Raph: For real, big man! He’s a pretty cool dude. And plus, who doesn’t love mystic maces with fire power, huh? And he’s got this like- “cool anime sensei” thing goin on! Mikey: Yeah he does, baby!!

Leo: Oh yeah-!?! Well- *grabs Donnie* Our double bladed ninja staff is way cooler than your mace. Pssh, who even uses maces anymore. Amirite? Mikey: You take that back, Leo!! Maces are the bomb! 

Donnie: He does have a point though. Together, we can portal in useful tech from my lab into battle like my attack drones or even the escape pods if we needed them. His portals become more accurate and stable while my ninpo constructs become more complex and powerful… In other words, Gali rules! Mikey: Wha-!? *he smirks, gaining the same idea as Raph* Fine then! What about Newton? I think he’s the most productive out of any of our fusions! Plus, he’s like the best of both artsy and science-y worlds! Newton’s pretty much a super geniusLeo: (Way to toot your own horn…) Raph: *Actually getting sucked into the argument now* Hey- wait- what about Anime Sensei?! Mikey: Does Anime Sensei have a cool theme song? I think not, Raphie! *Slides over to Donnie* 

Leo: Okay, as cool as you may think he is, you guys almost blew up the lair once. At least Gali’s a chill scientist. And we’re productive too!! Raph: Not really actually. Mikey: Yeah, you guys are more into space stuff than anything else. Leo: Wh-?! You don’t know what’s going on in our heads! We get so much done. Ask Donnie! Donnie: Surprisingly, while we do get a lot done, it’s still not as much as Newt. Leo: Traitor! *slides over to Raph and climbs on his shoulders* What about the amount of times Gio’s gotten you two out of trouble? Mikey: Psssh, you guys just become one big worry-wart whenever you fuse. Donnie: *Chuckles*

((Both look away at the comment)) Leo: No! Well- maybe, but that’s because of how much destruction comes with all of your “Super-Genius” energy. And you can’t even keep up with yourselves half of the time! Raph: Yeah, you two always crash after you fuse! I don’t think you’ve ever stayed together for more than 2 hours. Gio is the ultimate big bro and the best leader. *he fist bumps Leo* Donnie: Hey!! Mikey: Not our fault even we can’t keep up with how sick we are! Leo: Nino could beat all of you in a magic-off. Raph: Oh really? Well Masa looks cooler than all of you combined!

Donnie: And, Newton could out-create any of you. Mikey: Well Angel could razzmatazz and punch his way out of anything!

((A while of arguing later April walks in on them.)) April: Uhh… What’s this whole situation about?? Leo: APRIL!! Quick- tell them all of my fusions are the best! April: What? Donnie: Negative, Leonardo. My fusions are better, and you know it. April: What are you- Mikey: -Uh-uh!! Ain’t no way you’re turning April against us! Your fusions may be smarter, but my fusions have pizazz and flare, baby!

April: Guys.

Raph: No way! Raph’s fusions are the coolest. Who doesn’t love my big brother energy? And they’re all the strongest! April: HEY!!! …What are you guys talking about?! What do you mean by fusion??? Is this a game??

((All of them pause and light up again, almost forgetting about the argument.))

Mikey: We haven’t told you?!

Leo: Come sit down, we’ll fill you in!

Donnie: According to Draxum we’ve acquired a new ninpo ability called ‘Fusion’!

Raph: It’s so weird, but here’s the rundown- basically it combines our powers-

[kattystripes14]

Asked my main Discord server to pick faces from my last post to draw the turtles as ((Legit they are so cute- this is illegal-))

Progresssss!✨✨✨

Here's the base sketch for the Possessed!Leo art redraw. I know he's wearing clothes over this- I was too proud to erase it once I'd gone too far with plastron details-

Also very proud of the hands and feet- Luckily those won't be covered.✨

[kattystripes14]

Soooooooooooo-

Does anyone know sammyheroes? I know em' cause I read their AO3 "Possessed Leo AU" books- And let me tell you- I am *dying* rn cause I finally got to the last updated chapter of book two and now I've decided to cope by redrawing the art in the last chapter. (A lil sad cause the last update was last October- but I'm hopeful😢) Sammy, if you end up reading this, I love your AU- Torch, Morgana, the ships, the magic system and Hidden City culture- to the ends of the Earth. Kk byeeeeee <3 ((Edit:)) Btw- here are the books. ✨You should read them✨ ALWTG Possessed!Leo Part 1 FFS Possessed!Leo Part 2

Rise Turtles x Lesbian!GN!Reader

🩶Imagine the Turtles have a crush on a Lesbian!Reader or they're Omni and prefer women or they only comment on girls in movies or smth-

🩶Generally they have the impression that the reader wouldn't like them back, but either that's not true (the reader also likes men) or the reader slowly realises they also have a crush on one of the turtles and just has this "Oh shit I like men" moment, lmao.

🩶It would go slightly differently for each of them tho:

💙Leo would probably flirt anyways cause it's Leo. If you tell him to back off tho he will.

💙He'd probably never get over you, so you'd have a long window to figure it out, but it'd be a *huge* surprise if you told him you liked him. I'm talking blinding, over the moon grin, pick you up and twirl you around kind of excited.

💙"Wait, you're serious?! This isn't a prank, right? No cameras, no Donnies, no set up, no-"

🩶"-Leo!! (Leo, it's not a set up, quiet down!)"

💙"So you really like me?! This is incredible!! So what about me brought you to the dark side, was it my handsome good looks? My awesome sense of humor? It had to be my famously humble personality. C'mon Y/N, what was it?!"

🩶"Leo, put me down!!"

💙"I can't believe you liked me back all of this time!"

🩶"Hold on, 'back'?"

💙"...D-Did I say that?"

💜Donnie probably wouldn't pick up on the fact that you seem to prefer girls just as he wouldn't at first pick up on the fact that he likes you. If you straight up tell him though, he'll probably shoot himself down before he could even get close to you.

💜Cut to Donnie locking himself in the lab and moping for a while, meanwhile everyone's trying to figure out what happened. If you were to catch him on one of the rare food runs to the kitchen and tell him, he wouldn't know how to react.

💜"You... conradicted your previous statement?"

🩶"Yeah, well, stuff like that can change."

💜"..." "...Me?"

🩶"Mmhm."

💜"...Wow.

💜He feels like you just unlocked the secrets of the universe and proven the impossible to be possible. And although he doesn't have as much of a visible reaction, he's just as ecstatic as Leo if not more.

💜All this time I never imagined you'd reciprocate..."

🩶"Reciprocate?"

💜"!!- Uh- I think my ears have picked up on Raphala calling me to the training room- berightbackY/Nseeyoulater, bye!!!"

🩶"Pfft. Goofball."

❤️Raph would respect your boundaries and understand that you don't sway that way. He'd still be a bit hurt, and still act flustered towards you, but he knows you won't like him back.

❤️The more you hang out with him the quicker you realise you have a crush on him, but he already thinks it's not possible. If you were to tell him, he would most definitely short circuit.

❤️"Wha- H-How-? Really?!"

🩶"Yeah, shocker for both of us, isn't it?"

❤️"But I thought..???"

🩶"I guess you're the exception."

❤️"Huh. Wow- and you've liked me back all of this time?!"

🩶"Back~?"

❤️"...Oops."

🧡Mikey picks up on it before it comes up in conversation. And while he respects your boundaries just as much as Raph, he's a bit torn. He knows for a fact that you won't reciprocate his feelings for you, but some part of him thinks that you might.

🧡Everyone else finds it very obvious that he likes you and the moment you realize it too is the moment you realize you *do* like him back.

🧡When you finally tell him he's even more excited than Leo and Donnie *combined!* You are in for the tightest, warmest, cuddliest hug for at least the next hour.

🧡"I knew it! I knew it!! Ohhhh you don't know how happy I am to hear you say that, Y/N!!"

🩶"Ack-! M-Mike- as much as I l-love your hugs, my lungs-!!"

🧡"Oh!! Crap, sorry!"

🧡He continues to bounce on his heels a flap his hands while he raves on about how excited he is. (As if you couldn't see it for yourself. Or maybe you couldn't because of how blinding his smile was.)

🧡"This has gotta be the best day of my life!! I can't believe you liked me back this whole time!! I knew it, I knew it!!"

🩶"Aww, you liked me too?"

🧡"Heck yeah, baby!! Since forever!!"
