#2012 bebop

[basic-weird]

Everyone looks good in their style, I want more please

Don’t worry, I gotcha 😉

🐅🦏🐕🐖🐟🪰

Random Headcannons:

1) Tigerclaw most likely enjoys small talk, but if you try to drag out a one sided conversation that isn’t interesting to him, then he gets a bit irritated.

2) At some point Bebop gave Tigerclaw “catnip tea” to see what would happen, but it just left Tigerclaw in a zooned out and clam state. So every now and then, Bebop would give him a mild version of the tea when Tigerclaw gets too stressed.

3) Both Baxter and Fishface think that the other is a freak. Baxter thinks a bit low of Fishface, after accidentally listening in to the time he hit on April, and kinda assumes that he’s creep when it comes to women. Fishface on the other hand thinks that Baxter is psychotic for making those bug mutants, and Shredder knockoffs (He even catches Baxter muttering something to himself about how he can “improve” the other Footclan members)

4) Rocksteady considers Razhar to be a sort of friend of his, so he thought it’d be nice to get Razhar a little something, and what better to give a dog(?) than some dog treats. Although funnily enough, Razhar tries to refrain from giving into his embarrassing dog-like appetite/instincts (even though he occasionally jokes about wanting to eat Fishface).

i actually love your tmnt 2012 swap au concept so much

so what does "role" actually mean here? obviously i'm assuming it means shredder takes the role of their sensei/father, donnie as the leader/mediator, mikey as the tech/smart one, leo as the protector/hothead and raph as the silly guy (these might not be the most descriptive i haven't watched much of 2012 my apologies)

but how much of their original personality stays intact? from what you've posted i can assume raph and leo have had some personality change, but! was the swap au's splinter still yoshi?

or is the foot clan the peaceful clan and the hamato clan was wiped out, and yoshi was adopted, and ended up killing saki's wife? if so, why did the turtles "grow up in a not so pleasant household"?

not sure if this makes sense, but what i'm trying to ask is, did the swap au!splinter get his wife and think his child was killed, OR was he the brother that did the killing and burning of the house?

- @asheronangel

Okay, first of all, thank you so much! <3

And second of all, you basically nailed the “role” thing. 

Donatello’s the leader, Michelangelo’s the nerd, Leonardo’s the hothead, and Raphael’s the silly :P 

Despite the change in family dynamics, there’s still a few things that have stayed in tact. 

For example, Leo is still the most dedicated to his training, taking it very seriously, (part of that being Splinter’s influence.)

Donnie is still madly in love with a certain Ms. O’Neil, but though I kept the Donnie-April-Casey love triangle, a couple things have been altered for my own sanity.

Mikey still has ADHD and has retained his catchphrase, “booyakasha"; he’s basically just more smart/nerd oriented and less childish.

Raph is still technically the best fighter of the four, but he’s too much of a softy to ever actually let loose, unlike the classic 2012. (It may or may not frustrate Splinter. A lot. •_ •)

Splinter is still Yoshi, and essentially everything has stayed the same with his backstory, the only difference being that his personality was swapped with Saki’s. 

However, the context of said events were admittedly a little different. 

The Hamato clan was never necessarily “evil,” (same with the Foot) but their rivalry led to many conflicts and contentions.

When the Foot was wiped out by the Hamato due to such conflict, Oroku Saki was spared and adopted by Hamato Youta, raised side by side with Yoshi as brothers. 

Yoshi was always the more merciless and aggressive of the two, whereas the now Hamato Saki was compassionate and thoughtful.

The both fell in love with Tang Shen, and the both wished for her hand. 

However, Shen still chose Yoshi, getting married and having little Miwa together. 

Saki, being the man he is, was willing to step aside and respected her decision completely. 

It was soon after the time that Miwa was born when Saki discovered the truth of his heritage and who he really was.

Though he never sought vengeance, and chose to let go and move on.

When Yoshi revealed his plans to lead the Hamato clan and take over the world, Saki couldn’t just stand by and watch, leading to a confrontation that would cost the life of his love, Tang Shen, in a house fire, (which also left both him and Yoshi physically scarred.)

Presuming his once called brother dead, Saki took in little Miwa as his own daughter and moved to New York, starting a new life, safe from what remained of the vengeful Hamato. 

As further precaution, Saki changed his name to Oroku Kazuo (if you get the reference, I salute you) as well as Miwa’s to Oroku Karai. 

Karai would grow up and go to school, making friends with people such as Casey Jones and April O'Neil (though Casey and April don't officially meet until the turtles come along.)

Saki also made friends, becoming close with Anton Zeck and Ivan Steranko (both of which got mutated into a certain warthog and rhino duo during a "freak accident.")

Going back to Hamato Yoshi, he had of course survived, him in turn thinking that Saki and Miwa had both died in the fire along with Shen. 

Due to business opportunities, Yoshi moved the Hamato clan to New York, (not realizing his enemy was living right beneath his nose.)

While in New York, Yoshi met an interesting man named Bishop, who revealed himself as an alien once from a place called Dimension X. 

Bishop promised Yoshi immense power to fulfill his wishes in taking over the world, if Yoshi in turn could provide him with the resources Bishop needed to exact his revenge on his people, the Kraang, who banished him and his followers, (known simply as the Utrom.)

Agreeing to the terms set, Yoshi was mutated with Bishop’s mutagen into a mutant rat, along with four baby turtles, who would be the first generation of mutant warriors among the Hamato.

Yoshi, changing his name to Splinter, named the four babies Donatello, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael.

It would only be years later that Miwa and Saki would meet Donnie, Leo, Mikey, and Raph. 

Admittedly, I’ve made little change with Tang Shen. She’s essentially the same, though I guess you could say her taste in men is different than the original, considering she went with Yoshi. . .

Miwa was swapped in the sense that she and the turtles switched places, her being the one hiding out from the big bad guy and the turtles having been raised by said big bad guy.

Before when I said the turtles grew up in a “not so pleasant household,” it was in reference to the living conditions they had to be in, what with being raised to be soldiers in a war they never asked to fight in. 

The easiest way to put it is that their relationship with Splinter is on the abusive side of things. He was always hard on his sons, and “weakness had no place among the Hamato clan,” to put it in his own words. 

It’s probably why the turtles have so many issues.

But Miwa and Saki are quick to take in the turtles and help them through their troubles.

Along with others, like Casey Jones, April O’Neil, Bebop, and Rocksteady :3

That was probably more information than you asked for, but I felt like it was needed to explain everything.

So hopefully that explains everything :')

TMayNT Day Three: Favorite Henchmen

If you know me, you know I adore Big Mama’s Assistant (Frida, girlie, you’ll always be number one). However, since a lot of my love for her comes from her potential and what could have been and she only canonically has about thirty seconds of screen time, I’ve decided on a two different characters I love for this challenge.

It’s Bebop and Rocksteady (2012)!!!!!!!

These guys made me laugh sm when I watched 2012 and they’re just a vibe so boom here they are

Here’s the challenge by @tmaynt :)

Masterpost

[mikasleaf]

Of course I love the mohawk guy

He and his boyfriend are so funny together 😂💕

Day 3: Favourite Henchman

I clearly struggle with picking favourites, but I've tried to narrow them down here. I have a soft spot for Batman vs TMNT Stockman, mostly because he deserves better (like most Stockmans oof). He's not the only one who's a henchman by hostage tho so that's where this comic idea came in

03 Hun is already pretty cool, but his mutation is so underrated that I wanted to try showcasing it (I literally gasped out loud the first time I watched Turtles Forever)

And of course we have the gays ✨ Henchmen turned heroes that I think about a normal amount [Bonus sketch of them under the cut bc I like how it turned out]

[incorrect-tmnt2012-quotes]

*in the Attack of the Mega Shredder episode*

Bebop, to Leo and Mikey: We put you in a golden cage, you should be thankful!

Leo: A golden cage will still be a cage!

Leo: Oh, what a good phrase. Mikey, write it down!

Mikey: *scribbles it in a notepad*

I love that every version of the tmnt shows so far have their own gay evil ship

1987 is obviously Krang and Shredder

2003 is Baxter and Bishop 100 years into the future

2012

(You cannot convince me otherwise)

And canonically, 2018 (Rise)

I love all of them so much, lmao. I cant wait to see who Mutant mayhems will be, I can't say Bebop and Rocksteady again cause by the end of it theyre no longer evil

Tmnt day 24: Favorite Villain

“Oh just do something normal this time like everyone else is doing-“ No, your gonna get my favorite tmnt villain trio as the Triple Baka Trio consisting of Akita Neru, Hatsune Miku, and Kasane Teto and you’re gonna like it

These 3 are honestly so fun together and I’m pissed that we didn’t get more of their dynamic in the show

As of posting this I finished this about 15 minutes ago. I was just gonna do Bebop and Rocksteady (my all-time FAVORITES) and do some sort of fashion week thingy with them, but then I ran out of the time I gave myself and thought of this and, come on, how could I say no?

This is what I used as reference btw
