#Raph-centric

[i-got-da-rubes]

If you love Rise Raph as much as I do, maybe you should check out my small Future!Rise fic where I make him as big as Heinous Green. Because I said so. BIG RAPH SUPREMACY.

He’s still a lil goofball. It’s called Full Grown, and it is very dear to me. It is very soft and has a gentle ending. I originally called it “Mystic Breakdown,” but I’ve since made that the name of the series because I’ll be posting a second one focusing on Donnie on Sunday!!

Summary:

“Very early on in the invasion, the Hamato Clan discovered something.. Not so good. To understand it, one must take a look at the Hidden City. The underground world fell in much more chaotic fashion than New York did, and that’s saying something.”

In the midst of the apocalypse, the boy’s powers get a little out of hand.

Notes:

Prompt via my friend Noah: Big Raph rescues people and pets from the Krang

The prompt was not well followed.

Y'know Heinous Green from "Raph's Ride-along?" With that and the combined knowledge that Leo got giant in the future, I wanted to mess around with how big Raph would grow to be, and how his gentle soul may hate it.

A good song to listen to while reading: “FULL GROWN,” by Field Medic or “You Love Me” by Kimya Dawson.

Anyways, here it is!!

Thanks for getting this far in my post. Have a wonderful day.

He closed his eyes tightly, shaking his head from side to side to try and physically push the memories out of his mind. His shoulder ached, and his damaged eye felt blurrier than usual.

He never once regretted pushing Leonardo out of the way, but every once in a while he found himself hoping the pain from the healing injuries would lessen… even just a little bit.

Raph had just wanted to help. He just wanted to try his best. ------------ Just a short story about the eldest brother doing his best to calm himself down after waking up from a nightmare in the middle of the night.

Sneak peak #2

alright the people have spoken! With an overwhelming 90%, y’all wanted to see Tendrils chapter two. I’m halfway through writing it and it’s gonna contain some serious action! So below is a sneak peek. Thank for being so patient with me <3

(p.s. sry for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I am dyslexic. I’ll make sure to check it over for the actual fic when i add it to Ao3)

Chapter 2: Kraang Train

TW for this chapter: canon typical violence, Descriptions of tentacles, again avoid if you’re squeamish

[Take care y’all, if u know said thing may trigger you please don’t hesitate to skip this one. Things will settle down around chapter 4]

    “Raph? You okay?” He hears April's voice call, soft but still audible. It came from a distance, somewhere to the right and up. Raph rubbed his head a bit. He dusted off his knees as he stood up. Nothing seemed broken besides the dull soreness of falling down who knows how many steps. He sure didn’t know, he couldn’t see.

    “Yeah, I’m ok,” Raph not-whispered back. The snapper shoved his hands in front of him, hoping to find the wall or something before he could trip again. He shuffled forward a bit, taking a lot more caution with each step. 

    Squech! Raph stepped directly into a puddle of something goopy and cold. “Oh gross! I think I stepped in someone’s drink!”

    “Eeewwww,” He heard April reply

    “Raph! Quiet!” Ok that was definitely Donnie. 

    “It’d be easier to be quiet if I could see where I’m going,” He replied, only half listening as he hopped around on one foot trying to shake the wet feeling off. Suddenly a burst of light illuminated where he was standing, temporarily blinding him. He rapidly stuck out his arms, trying and failing to stay upright. 

    “Donnie, don’t shine that in my eyes!” Raph heard his surrogate sister complain, no longer bothering to use a quiet voice. 

    “Well I didn’t know you were right there,” Donnie huffed. Raph had to take a moment for the sunspots in his vision to clear. He spotted Donnie standing just one step off the bottom. Two repurposed stadium lights peaked from his battle shell, casting everything around them in harsh bluelight. April was standing just a little in front of him, glasses now hanging from the neck of her shirt as she rubbed her eyes. She blinked a couple times, probably trying to adjust to the sudden blinding display. 

    “Where the heck did you even get stadium lights?! Those things are bright!” April said, glancing over expectantly at Donnie before having to shield her eyes again.

    “Oh! Well you see it’s actually a pretty interesting story. I was out on patrol you see. I had decided to go off my usual route. . .'' Donnie continued on about his story, but by this point Raph had tunned him out. He was stuck stock still by the sight illuminated before him.

    The once subway station was unrecognizable! Dirt and debris were scattered around the floor. Concrete posts were hit out of position, revealing the metal rodding inside. To one side, the subway tunnel had caved in on itself, chunks of rocks and tiles blocked the entirety of the entrance. The tunnel to the other side looked ominous, metal and wires sticking down from it like teeth and the entrance gaping like a mouth ready to swallow them whole. It kinda freaked Raph out a bit. 

    “What happened to this place,” Raph said, mostly to himself.

    “The Kraang.” April said, Waaaay closer than he thought she was. For the third time tonight he nearly jumped out of his skin. Oh Raph did not like this, at all.

    Raph swallowed hard, glancing down at April. She was staring straight ahead, expression unreadable. But from what Raph could guess, she probably wasn’t thinking about anything good. This was about the Kraang after all.

(Sorry this was shorter than my last sneak peek. I just didn’t want to spoil too much for the full chapter. Hope you enjoyed!)

For @somerandomdudelmao 's Cass apocalypse au!!!! I love the idea of Raph being Casey's dad before Leo took over parenting. Raph deserves to be a big soft dad.

And here are some close-ups (might put them on their own backgrounds one day, but it's 5 AM and I'm tired so):

[wormspoodle]

[lara-cairncross]

opposite sides :)

[cokowiii]

I’m pretty sure that’s not how you’re supposed to use that but AYE! IT GOT THE JOB DONE-ish

Start 🦐 Previous 🦐 Next

[sylphee]

Here’s the art I made for Boys Will Be Bugs, Right? by the super cool @glowbug252, which features Raph facing a really big ant and his inner demons. Please give it a read!! :D

(Part of Grab a Slice: A TMNT Bang!)

[legendweaver]

Wanted to post just the artwork!

original!

[that-gay-gal]

If I can’t be happy… neither can Raph

… Joking!!! …Mostly. Look it’s just to easy to make angst of him. And I am desperate for more angst. Please Rise fandom, give the guy some more love (and pain I MEAN WHAT??! WHO SAID THAT)

Anyway I don’t think Splinter would actually say this cause easy life?? Yeah no.

I imagine this is a reoccurring dream that he has. He knows his dad wouldn’t say that to him but that doesn’t stop his subconscious from pretending he would✨

Also can you tell I’m fighting for my life trying to avoid drawing Splinter? He terrifies me I’m avoiding him like the plague

Omw to make more “silly” Raph animations with Jack Stauber songs

Projecting PT 2 - ROTTMNT Comic

Previous - Part 2 - Next

yes I am continuing this lazily made comic! i'd imagine they're sitting in whatever becomes the living room post-movie right now. also i hope you enjoy the extra colors. they won't stay for long lol.

[whatdancingdorkswasalreadytaken]

y'know what. the last ronin movie will be the first time EVER where a tmnt movie has been mikey-centric.

[prettychillbrainfreeze]

IT’S HERE Y’ALL!!!

[dysfunctional-doodle]

I always found it odd in Fast Forward how the turtles never were phased by being able to go out in public, and then realising that no, climbing up the sides of the buildings and jumping across cars is not social etiquette. So I wrote this.

The fic is a lot more angsty, actually. It’s called What Was Left Behind, and it’s about Mikey realising that he is struggling to fit into the future world he’s always dreamed of despite usually loving change.

I wanted to explore what it would be like for someone who usually is very optimistic to begin to fall, and Mikey became my emotional punching bag again, poor dude. I know Raph got some focus in the series, so it may have made more sense to write this about him, but I dunno, the concept I was trying to go for seemed to fit Mikey more for me.

But yeah, 6 pages of angst. Check it out if you want, otherwise it’s chill.

Home

Oh he was tired,practically dragging his feet with slow heavy steps as he trudged towards where you were,heavy lidded eyes staring at you with a calculation of a worried wolf,it should have put a pit of fear and worry in your stomach but you know him too well,he was just checking if your safe

Safe in his quarters,safe from all the hell he had to fight off

His body was littered with new scars,covering the old ones who haven’t even healed yet,the clothing and armor he had to wear for protection and for decency inside the resistance was caked with ash,practically smelling the acidic smoke of whatever battle he had fought not long ago.He looked like dead from were he silently stood,he does feel dead,feeling his own tiredness seeping to his bones like always.

You beckoned him to come closer,stretching arms like an invite for comfort,and he followed like a moth attracted to a flame.

“Welcome back,love”You muttered sweetly and pressed a small kiss in his forehead,hands wrapping around his neck as best as you can as he lays between your legs in his stomach.A soft rumble before a deep churr,your warmth soaking in his bones like a welcome blanket,his tense muscles relaxing one by one,liquifying to merge fit like liquid gold.

“Yeah…I’m home”

Because you are his home,the only thing left in this broken world
