Thinking about my last post about a villan Leo, and honestly what would put him over the edge?

Because honestly, his brothers would keep him from becoming a true villan in almost every timeline, so what would be the thing to truly send him over the edge, without them dying and without any kind of mind control?

The only thing I can think of is if Leo truly believed that they don't love him.

And unfortunately, we kiiiinda see this in the series. Not that they don't love him, no, I don't think he could ever do anything to make them not love him.

Buuuuut....we do kinda see him thinking that they don't like him

"Im the one who cheated, punish me!"

And instead of backing him up, bailing him out, helping him figure it out, what do they all do?

"YES PUNISH HIM!"

They actively advocate for Leo to get hurt here. All three of them.

And yeah, this is totally sibling culture, I have two younger siblings and I'm totally willing to shove them under the bus from time to time, but that's when we get asked who ate the last of Dad's favorite cookies, not when we're asked who should get hurt

(And let's be so real right now, they had no idea what the consequences of this "punishment" would be, it's a little bit different when they're in severe danger versus simple sibling blaming)

And on top of that, we see this kind of thing again and again where they shove Leo in the line of danger

"It was me who made everyone keep the secret from you!"

(This was all for a PRANK. He's 14-15 here, a KID. Theres no reason Splinter needed to make this prank THIS severe, but a post about Leo and Splinter's relationship and how that could push him over the edge is coming later)

And then there's this...

"Leo! Sacrifice yourself to buy us time!"

Now we see a trend. This is the third time that Leo has offered himself up/someone else has offered him up

And still, not a single person speaks up in his defense

I wouldn't blame him if, at this point, he's starting to think that maybe, just maybe.....

Do they really like him?

and it's not that much of a stretch to eventually turn this to

Do they really love me?

(Stay tuned for the entire breakdown on why he might believe that Splinter specifically might not like him!!!)

see what people forget about james and regulus is that they are fundamentally and at their core the same person. and that is why their dynamic works. jegulus is not opposites attract, it is the of recognition of the self in the other.

WHAT IF. WHAT IF RADIOACTIVE SPIDERS WORK LIKE BEES AND WASPS. AND THEIR VENOM STILL WORKS AFTER THEY’RE DEAD. Some kid finds a glowing spider carcass underneath Brooklyn one day, six Spiders and the word Expectations illuminating their discovery like a calling. They touch the spider. When they get home, they take some tylenol for a bug bite they don’t remember getting and go to bed. They wake up six inches taller, ripped, and with a weird tingly sensation in their fingers. When Miles gets back from his interdimensional clusterfuck adventure, there’s already a new Spidey in his place and a lot of explaining to do.

OC pride drawing 1/X, ft. Diana (left, bi flag) and Karyn (right, pan flag) :’]

Karyn’s earring is the aperiodic regular tile which was discovered earlier this year, because it wouldn’t be a true pride drawing if I didn’t also flaunt the fact that she’s a nerd and also I happen to think it’s a very pleasant shape

Men will do anything to get out of the draft. Including injecting the urine of pregnant women into themselves.

grilling character.ai Marie about the marshmallows vs hotdogs dialogue (you know the one) and her conclusive response is that she’s just Like That. She’s just a Suggestive-ass Lenny Face Incarnate Scrimblo and I Hate Her (affectionate).

one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

“can straight men be romantically and sexually attracted to men?” sure, I’m not a cop

Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.

having such an obvious favorite character trope is life ruining bro

[trashy-greyjoy]

really love dynamics that are like 'it honestly doesn't matter if you view them as romantic or platonic, the point is that they love each other. the type of love is inconsequential, all that matters is that it's there'. gotta be one of my favorite genders.

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)
