ROTTMNT FIC BATTLE BRACKET

INSPIRED BY ADMIRABLE BLOGS SUCH AS @tmntaucompetition , @whatinthefuckingninjaturtles , @tmnt-iteration-competition , @tmntausummit , and many more!!

hi! I’m going to let this post circulate a bit before opening submissions.

this will be a poll bracket of ROTTMNT fics! I love rottmnt fics and I’m sure this will lead me and many others to new ones, aswell as be fun for everyone! This poll is meant to be for good times, so please do not be aggressive or offensive when fics are battling or a fic (sadly) leaves the bracket.

If a fic is Explicit or TCEST, it WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. For obvious reasons. Also this one isn’t as serious but I’d rather just not do romance-centered fics at all, but if I’m seeing them submitted a lot then I’ll take em!

spread the word! Submissions open June 1st.

(Sorry about the wait, it’s just I have exams and then will want a few days to myself)

See you all then!

Asks should be open if anyone wants clarification or has some silly questions! Theme will be discussed when submissions open and the verdict of the theme will be announced when polls start!

[spectralsleuth]

In the interests of matching paperwork for the fic bracket: did you submit LSoW as a series or as the individual stories?

Oh as a series! I figured it’s one whole work that you need for context. I hope that was allowed none of them work very well together by themselves. 😭

new patch i designed and made, inspired by

Firefight, Ch. 25, by @remedyturtles / @remrose on ao3.

"The rumble-roll of wheels on gravel. Donnie reluctantly looked out the window and saw huge sprawling sycamore trees, swaying green grass, and a moderate overcast sky. It didn’t feel like anything in particular to see, churning something unfamiliar and uncertain.

Donnie said, somehow, around the sheer cotton his mouth had become, “Did you know there are sycamore trees alive today that are more than three hundred years old?”

Leo’s shoulders relaxed and he grabbed the hand that Donnie still had pressing against his mouth, pulling it away with a squeeze. “Well, I do now, Dontron.”

“Maybe Dad planted them.” Mikey chimed in from the front, all sly innocent littlest energy.

“Excuse me, I am right here.” Splinter said, delightfully mixed with gruff and amused.

Donnie kept his gaze on the enormous trees with their impossibly large trunks, and thought,

what have you survived?"

other than leo and big mama, who do you think serves the most cunt and why?

ur answer will shape all of time and history 😁 /j

So it's basically a tie between Draxum and Donnie

It's Not Pain (It's Applause)

So!! I learned today is one of my fav albums' anniversary, and of course i had to write something quickly based on a song in the album!! I present you this Dimension Hopper Leo AU fic, which is just Hop looking through his adventures and thinking at late night hours. I didn't check it for any mistakes, so i hope everything is correct haha!! The song that the fic is heavily inspired is "Battle Cries" by The Amazing Devil :]

(Also Null belongs to @noxvee6 and Twin-Sync AU belongs to @little-banjo-frog ^^ )

Tagging @tmntaucompetition because it is mentioned here too, even if not very detailed hehe

《 words and ao3 link will be added later, I don't think there are anything that needs warning, but if there is please tell me so I can add!!》

 He had never thought he would see an older version himself from an outside view, let alone himself. But fate had surprised him. Perhaps it wasn't fate at all, but his choices.

 Turning the pages of the notebook he wrote his discoveries in, he sighed. He looked at the pictures of Neon. He was one of the future versions of himself that he had met. He had ended up being a great friend to him, teaching him some basics. He smiled at the picture of him being busy as a leader. Neon had given him hope, maybe one day he could be like him. He was afraid of the possibility and the responsibility, but those were just a few details next to many good possibilities. 

 He still regretted not asking him some things, but who knows, maybe one day he would. And maybe one day he could annoy the heck out of him, tell him he met a Leo with hair, pointing out his lies. (He was aware he could never know about that possibility, but it was worth teasing the old man.)

He also was one of the people who had proven he wasn't alone. When alone, at night he thought about how without his family he wouldn't go far, he would remember him just like others. He would answer the question of who would save him if he fell (but could they save him when he fell in the deepest part of it all, when he would accept he wouldn't be able to go back home?).

 Leo shook his head. He didn't want to think of any possibilities about the future. He had found a moment of relaxation, a calm hour. Who would've known it would be so hard to rest while visiting almost every timeline that exists? Somehow, trouble never stopped finding them. Make it a villain, a plot twist, or a war. There always was something to do, even if he didn't belong. Even if he had his own war to win, a home to reach.

 He turned the page, humming at the image of the four turtles who had recently discovered they were a family. Honestly, they  must've been idiots to not notice they were related. Or maybe it felt like that to him because these faces belonged to his family as well. Whatever, he was happy to have met them and to know fate had reunited them. They had a lot to catch up to, just as Leo would when he would reunite with his family. 

 Turning pages he came across the picture of younger Big Mama and Lou Jitsu. He cringed, remembering the way he ended up in the past. They sure had an interesting love story, but it definitely was not Leo's cup of tea. 

 He turned the page quickly. After a short while he ended up seeing the grumpiest Leo in the universe. Null's big frown was visible in the picture. His smile returned, big and genuine. Who would know a version of you who wanted you dead would end up being as close to you as your real family? Leo hoped to see him soon, tease him by calling him his big brother. He was sure Null didn't mind, but the guy would do the favor of rolling his eyes and going along with it. He was proud to know him, seeing how he grew to be a better person. He hoped he was proud to know Leo as well.

 And then there were the pages dedicated to the competition he had found himself in. Various alternative versions of his family were all over the pages. He wasn't even sure if he knew all of them. He still grinned, it was fun. The other Leo and Donnie– they were team Twin-Sync–  had become great friends of his, and multiple pictures of them together decorated a single page. He had also gained a new fear towards mushrooms, and had found a new fun game to play. Who would know Muppets could be so bloodthirsty? Game nights were wild…

 He closed it and sighed, so many memories. So many dimensions and timelines. He was happy for all of them. Everything he had learned, everything that helped him become someone better. Everyone he had met and knew and helped. Every time he hopped somewhere new, it felt like restarting a new work of art– at least a Mikey had used that metaphor once he explained to him his adventures. And so many times he was told to hop away once he could, but so many times Leo refused. He couldn't stand to see his family in danger (again). And no matter the pain, it was worth it. Everything was worth for any version of his family. With them he felt like he could summon the Gods and the stars. Heck, he even felt like they were Gods. (He pushed back the memory of an older self of his saying that they were just kids.)

 And there were times he had trouble with those versions. Some that didn't trust him, and some that he had to not trust. There were bitter moments, but there were good ones too. (He swallowed down the pain of the words he had heard from some. The way some wield them as if he was an enemy.) They tried to get rid of him, sometimes. They must've forgotten Leo was stubborn. They could say goodbye, but he won't.

 Leo took a deep breath. It was crazy how he had ended up here. Everywhere. Whatever. It was as if he was walking in the darkness searching for light, but the darkness grew. (And he was afraid he was sinking so deep it was too late.) But he wouldn't give up (even if everything felt like going against him). He wouldn't turn his nights into them, especially when he was about to hop again. 

 Maybe one day he would do everything. Enjoy the calm, or show his skills in a fight. Maybe he would make a season finale, find the right portal. The smiles of others that he reflected would be truly his family's. (And no longer his mask would hide the tears.) Instead of staying, he'd keep hopping as much as he would keep hoping. (He would hide his fears with every new beginning.)

 And he would take a sigh. (And the battle cries in his mind would be buried deep.)

 And every time, it will be worth it for them. It can't hurt him if he'd have people he loved with him.

 (He wouldn't scream. Maybe he was at the end of all the things. It wasn't the time to ask himself how he was.) As long as he believed, he was okay. He was fine.

 Maybe tomorrow was the day. And finally, maybe everything would be over.

Canon compliant rottmnt au where Big Mama still kidnapped Lou Jitsu after he proposed, but unknown to him she took that as an official "deal" and now they're actually married.

She never informs him of this bc she thought it was obvious.

This has nearly effect on canon because Spider Yokai relationships are just Like That except, unknown to everyone in the Hamato Family, she's declared the turtles as her heirs since they are technically her kids by marriage & this is the perfect way to avoid all the messiness that comes with having kids naturally.
