[ cw: death mention / strangulation mention / stabbing mention / blood mention / self-sacrifice / codependency mention in tags / ]
I think a lot about how common it is for Raph to be the one to have direct focus put on him when Leo gets into all his near death experiences.
Like, when Leo is thrown off a building, it’s Raph who’s right there jumping after him, not even thinking about the consequences to himself when he does. When Leo almost gets skewered by the Krang, Raph’s right there to take the blow and send Leo to safety without a second thought. When Leo’s being strangled to near death, it’s a Krangified Raph doing the job, doing exactly what Raph would never, ever want to do. When Leo is telling Casey Jr to close the portal, it’s Raph who tries desperately to convince Leo otherwise.
Likewise, Leo is consistently very single minded when Raph gets forcibly separated from them. Both when in the sewers and by the Krang, Leo is dead set on finding Raph first and foremost.
I also think it’s interesting that during each of Leo’s near death experiences, the lightheartedness of his words during them goes directly hand in hand with both how close Raph is to him physically and how much danger Raph is also in in that moment. From a literal “I told you so” as Leo’s falling away from Raph to a soft joke about how “hero moves” are Raph’s style - both of these are on the more morbidly carefree side and both of these notably take Leo farther away from Raph and, in turn, have Raph not in immediate danger.
On the other side of things is the apology from Leo, heedless of the danger he himself is in as he seriously and genuinely speaks to a Krangified Raph face to face. Then there’s Leo’s freezing and desperation as Raph takes a hit meant for him and sends just Leo to safety, leaving Raph himself behind. Both of these involve much closer proximity and Raph being directly harmed - these together make Leo much more vulnerable in his words and actions, something not even the threat of death can make him.
These two care about each other so much, and they’re way too much alike for their own good.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt raph#rise raph#rottmnt leo#rise leo#honorable mention to the time Leo desperately tried throwing himself into harm’s way to get to Karai#and Raph is the one who has to pull him back#I also think that it’s interesting how both of them go about self sacrifice#because wow they both have problems with it#Raph’s tends to be immediate reactions not even thinking as he throws himself over his bros#Leo’s are often shown to be ‘for the greater good’ (said greater good often being his family)#once again I am saying that post movie these two would likely have codependency issues#considering Raph’s already present acute seperation anxiety and Leo’s immediate memory of Raph standing over him bleeding#another thing to mention is how Future Leo’s actual death still falls into the whole ‘morbidly lighthearted words’ category#I also wanna point out that in Many Unhappy Returns the trust that Leo wants so much does NOT come from Splinter but from RAPH#side note but in regard to the fighting that Raph and Leo were up to during the time between the shredder and the krang#I think it’s interesting that it’s NOT depicted as screaming matches - very blatantly not this actually#also also! I totally love how the movie parallels Oroku Saki and Karai with Raph and Leo respectively#there are so many parallels in general in this show+movie it makes me froth at the mouth#and because it breaks my heart - the beginning of the movie had Raph getting angry at Leo and lashing out at him#the end of the movie has the Krang very very angry at Leo and lashing out at him#both of these times has Leo ‘ruining’ a mission so…bad parallels#in the movie as well there’s a Krangified Raph who beats Leo senseless#so I have to wonder if Raph and Leo just…can’t roughhouse anymore#else Leo would flinch or Raph would be so scared to accidentally hurt Leo like he was already used to do before#then suddenly their usual dynamic of Raph never having to be softer with Leo is thrown on its head#worse is if they’re so terrified of this dynamic leaving that they power through their own sufferings to maintain it

Love how Hoyo is just as much on Boothill's dick as the rest of us. The Wardance crowd really is just the fandom fjkdlsajlksl
#hsr#honkai star rail#hsr 2.5#boothill#hsr boothill#screenshots taken with Dan Heng bc of course heehee#none of them even care that he's wanted for murder and mayhem it's only the IPC so that's allowable KLJDKLSJADKFJ#'he's hot so it's ok!!' love the priorities here#one of the Wardance judges going to Jing Yuan like hey there's a wanted felon among the registered contestants. like a REALLY wanted one.#'What did he do?' 'Well-' and then it's just them reading off a massive rap sheet for like 10 minutes straight JKDSAJKDL#but they end it by specifying these are all charges held by the IPC and the IPC only so Jing Yuan is like 'oh well that's fine then'#Besides Yanqing was standing nearby at his usual post and Jing Yuan can see him practically vibrating out of the corner of his eye-#-all excited to fight a strong opponent haha#as if Jing Yuan would turn away a Galaxy Ranger anyway#you know he was restraining himself from asking Boothill to take him with him pfffffffffft

Friends, fans, freaks, help me out. Share EVERYTHING about how you think the Battle Nexus and Big Mama’s businesses work
Any headcanons about the structure/technology (like about her door that looks Very Krang-Like and what that might mean), your fanfic or your favorite fanfic that has the nexus as a significant plot point and/or goes into detail about how the place is managed, stuff you picked up from canon that gives hints on how Big Mama operates (like that chest covered in bones that her turtle assistant handed her), literally anything and everything you can think of!
If you know anything about economy that would be super helpful too, you should infodump about that as far as its relevant to Big Mama (pleeease)
#almost everything Big Mama does has the end goal of “THIS WILL BE PERFECT FOR MY BATTLE NEXUS 🕷🕷🕷”#but then there was that episode where Leo says her business is obviously on Tough Times#she even said so herself when she stooped to forcing one of her hotel staff into fighting in the nexus#sidenot: she traffiks ppl right?? like when she straight up kidnapped Lou Jitsu and then the turtles#or is it more likely that they were outliers and she usually blackmails ppl into participating or something??#anyways yeah how is she in business and how does she keep it running#rottmnt#rise of the tmnt#big mama#big mama tmnt#rottmnt big mama#battle nexus#rottmnt battle nexus#rottmnt fandom#rottmnt fanfiction#turtle thoughts

As it goes with every new brainrot I have, it’s time for Kirby crossover again :)
Kirby in one piece! With one piece’s strong focus on dreams and found family, I thought it would fit for Kirby to be a pirate that dreams of sailing to the stars and beyond. Not that this is very achievable by normal means, but we know that it’s at least possible with Eneru and the Skypiea arc :D
More notes in the read more!
Kirby has the devil fruit power of the copy-copy fruit! A paramecia activated by contact and only able to copy one fruit at a time. It can copy logias and paramecias with no problems, though actual ability using the fruit’s powers is up to Kirby to practice and figure out. Zoans can only be copied to partial transformations and cannot be awakened. Kirby doesn’t have much of a mind for haki but has a lot of latent conquerer’s haki that he doesn’t realize— it’s one of the reasons he’s able to make friends so effortlessly.
Meta Knight in this AU is a retired marine, between Captain and Rear Admiral level. He has a bat model zoan fruit that allows him to grow wings, and is a skilled swordsman. He’s retired from the marines but acts a his own separate party that is neither revolutionary, marine, nor pirate, keeping his own fleet known as the Meta-Knights. Their actions are similar to pirates despite not flying a Jolly Roger. They claim territory to protect and occasionally fight other pirate crews, and they claim no allegiance to the world government. They simply go where they are needed. Meta Knight will sometimes sail with Kirby on his small ship, the Popstar, just to keep Kirby out of trouble and make sure the ship is well stocked and well-maintained and able to be seaworthy.
Dedede is the king to one of the small countries that isn’t represented at the Reverie. That means he has a lot more freedom to do his own thing, including setting sail while taking a crew of Dees with him and leaving the country in the hands of some administrative Dees. Dedede splits his time between exploring and sailing and returning home to run his country, with the help of his trusty second in command, Bandanna Dee. Dedede has a penguin model Zoan fruit, and Bandanna doesn’t have any devil fruit but is proficient in coating their spear in haki. They’re the designated save-the-fruit-user-from-drowning person when they’re on deck.
Kirby’s crew changes because a lot of the people he recruits tend to have their own responsibilities. His crew is also full of people he’s beaten. It’s not uncommon for Kirby to sail alone, though he gets into more scrapes than usual with bad weather and rough waves. It can hardly be called a pirate crew, but Kirby has collected all the most heinous criminals under his banner and as such, the world government treats it as a threat.
#kirby gijinka#one piece#kirby crossover#kirby one piece crossover#idk it’s just really fun to think about Kirby in different universes haha#this Kirby design is a lot more silly goofy than my usual designs for Kirby#I tend to go very soft and cute for Kirby designs but I think one piece in general has a pointier vibe#like kirby in this au is a lot more excited about fighting than my other Kirby’s#in the sense that with other kirby au’s that I make kirby tends to be neutral about fighting#like of course he will fight because he’s got the power to do so and has people he wishes to protect and such#but he doesn’t necessarily enjoy it so much as see it as a means to an end#kirby in this au kind of resembles gear 5 luffy a bit in the sort of whimsical vibes#if fighting is inevitable he might as well get some fun out of it yknow#anyways I just wanted to doodle a silly little guy#it’s been a while since I’ve rendered with the softer brush! I kind of miss it it’s a lot of fun

I am so obsessed with Erika's and Brennan's willingness to play incredibly emotionally charged fights between characters that love each other in deeply complicated ways, like the amount of trust this shit takes to do in an improv show? Was obsessed with it in burrows end, am obsessed with it now in misfits and magic, will be obsessed with it when they inevitably do it again in the coming Aabria dmed worlds beyond numbers story, these two (and especially Erika for being so so willing to play the heel) kill me everytime, I love them
#erika ishii#brennan lee mulligan#dimension 20#burrows end#misfits and magic#mismag spoilers#(kinda i mean if you saw the preview you know they're fighting but y'know)#from the moment brennan said ''why don't you shut up'' to erika in burrows end this was cemented to me#already loved them together before that but that fight? cemented that they will not shy away from anything#they trust each other enough to fully yell at each other in character and know that that is perfectly alright to do#(do not copy this at your table without having that same certainty!)#also sidenote i do not think it's a coinidence that these are both aabria dmed campaigns#(well obviously aabria is usually the one to dm if erika and brennan get to play together but i think it goes beyond that)#she is very very good at facilitating moments like this and nudging and giving players space to play these scenes#without ever really seeming like she's doing anything

I don't know where this came from but here:
Damian, Jon and Elle are working out at the Teen Titan gym. Jon notices that Elle has stopped and is just staring at Damian and decides to sidle on over, both to tease his girlfriend and join her in watching their boyfriend go ham in the fight simulation program.
Jon: Enjoying the view?
Elle: huh? Oh no - well, yeah obviously, but that's not why I'm staring
Jon: Oh? What's up then? Something wrong with D?
Elle: No, nothing like that, it's just...
Jon: Just?
Elle: Does he pluck his eyebrows to be that shape?
Jon: ...what?
Elle: It just occured to me that his eyebrows are like, shaped like the wings of the bat symbol. Does he pluck them them to get that shape? Or are they natural? I mean, Batcow's "mask" is natural so...
Jon, a dawning realizationin his eyes: ...I - they've been that way since we were kids...
Elle: Yeah, I've seen pictures, but it's Day. Can you really tell me he wouldn't start doing it as a kid to as like a "see I'm totally the superior child, I even my eyebrows are dedicated to the cause" and then have to keep it up forever cause he couldn't just admit he was plucking his brows into that shape when he was a little bratty kid.
Jon: Oh my god he totally would
Damian finishes up at the simulation area and wanders over to his two partners to see what they're talking about
Damian: Hey-
Jon & Elle: Are your eyebrows real?!
Damian stops. States at them. Turns on his heel and just walks away from them without a word with both of them immediately chasing after him badgering him about his eyebrows.
(It takes another three months but they do eventually catch him painstakingly plucking his brows for that optimal Bat-Wing look)
#dc x dp#dp x dc#dpxdc#dani phantom#danielle phantom#elle phantom#jon el kent#jon kent#jon lane kent#damien wayne#super serious chaos#they are three of the smartest people in the world and usually the smartest people in the room#but also they share a single braincell and like the fates from the movie Hercules they end up fighting over it & usually drop it#Damian plays it off like he's the one with the braincell here but let's be real#Simultaneously Jon & Elle are sharing it and no one has it#Jon & Elle when thry finally catch Damian plucking his brows for that perfect batwing arch: why don't you just use makeup#Damian unwilling to admit he's never thought of that in all these years: impractical#they're idiots your honor#but idiots *in love*

one of the dimmadomes with curly hair?
beautiful cats with homophobia 💕💞/ref
also minor rant abt the dimmadomes having super curly hair: hi, hello, white dude with very curly hair here, idk abt yall but ive TRIED to get my hair to slick back like dale and devs for formal events before and it DOES NOT DO THAT WITHOUT A BOATLOAD OF GEL. to get my hair to look even partially as neat as theirs i had to essentially glue my hair down AND THEYRE GETTING OFF HELICOPTERS AND WEARING HATS/HEADPHONES AND RUNNING AROUND WITHOUT A SINGLE CURL POPPING OUT LIKE OUGH ik its just bc they prob didnt wanna have to sculpt or animate that but im begging the writers that if they get s2 and ever make an episode abt/involving the dimmadomes having naturally curly hair (bc yk dale literally canonically has curly hair even if dev doesnt) they MAKE SOME SORT OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ABOUT THE SHEER AMOUNT OF PRODUCT IT TAKES TO GET CURLY HAIR TO SLICK BACK LIKE THAT. LIKE HTAT SHIT HAS TO BE CRUNCHY AF. YOU TRY TO RUN A COMB THROUGH THEIR HAIR AND IT WILL JUST BOUNCE RIGHT OFF
#my art#dev dimmadome#dev fop#fop dev#dale dimmadome#dale fop#fop dale#fairly oddparents a new wish#fop a new wish#fop anw#like even if theyre straightening it beforehand if it gets even mildly humid itll just curl right back up#even with the help of gel the ends will usually fight back really hard#especially during hot weather when you get sweat on the back of your neck#also if i see any of you talking abt someone running their fingers through dev or dales hair in a fic and you are a curly dimmadome believer#you BETTER make that passage abt how it is crunchy and gross. bc that is what slicked back curly hair feels like. nasty

there's something sadly funny about the way that Kaladin goes into literally every situation thinking "Too bad I'm not cool anymore 😔"
I mean. I get it. Depression fucks your brain up and you feel detached from yourself and any skills you have or had. The PTSD and chronic fatigue are keeping him from doing things he once managed with far less effort. And it's rather impossible to feel like you can just... do things like you used to when you're struggling at a basic level to simply be.
Still, literally everyone who knows him is like "Kaladin you're so storming cool" and he goes "They're referring to the person I was, who is dead. I'll never be cool again. I'm sorry."
The most hilarious thing? He walks into these moments, thinking 'too bad', and then he does the most objectively amazing thing possible while everyone else just watches in awe.
Kaladin, three seconds after absolutely changing everyone's outlook on life: Aw, it's too bad the person I just was died again. Guess I have to find something else to be cuz I sure can't pull that off anymore.
#this ramble brought to you by the scene near the end of ROW where Kal is about to defend the last node and is like#“would be cool if I was here. too bad I'm dead. I'll try to pretend one last time”#meanwhile everyone adores him just for still trying. still daring to fight.#I guess the point is you're not dead and you're not useless and you're not failing to measure up as long as you're still fighting#Just Brando writing writing painfully accurate mental illness as usual#kaladin is fr me every time someone says something nice about a fic I've written#I act like it was a one time thing and I'll never pull it off again#me three hours after publishing a fic: yes thank you but it's too bad I don't think I'll ever write again. I know.#like oh you were emotionally impacted? what a funny coincidence; I'm sorry for tricking you into believing in me; that was rude of me#meanwhile the 509k ao3 word count and repeat readers: 💀#kaladin stormblessed#stormlight archive#stormlight archive reread#rhythm of war reread

During a dormhead meeting-
Riddle glaring at Leona: "Heartslabyul will host them during the start of the week but not a day beyond that! They tend to eat too much sugar and dig up the roses!"
Leona shrugging: "What Jack does in his free time is not on my head. Anyways, if they sneak into Savanaclaw none of ya get to badger me for news on them got it? I'm not their babysitter."
Vil huffs: "We wouldn't have to if you took your role seriously! And Pomefiore already hosted them during all weekdays last week!"
Idia sounding frazzled even through his tablet: "Just- can we keep them out of Ignihyde this week? They- they spent the weekend gaming and raising a ruckus! Everyone is still jittery from the shouting!!!"
Kalim sheepish: "I'd offer but after the incident at the last party Jamil kinda banned them from our dorm till we can get the scorch marks out of the walls"
Azul with a frown: "I'd normally host them at the lounge for an appropriate fee but I need it in working condition after last month's fiasco"
Malleus looking put out: "I did offer to let the child of man and their friends 'carsh' with Sebek as Lilia says, but they claimed that the dorms 'vibe' is nor suited to the relaxation they are aiming for"
#Ramshackle here is mostly unlivable to Yuu and Grim dormhop alot#n the other firsties get bored alone so they follow them#this usually ends in arson fights and properly damage that gets them kicked out of dorms#but since none of the heads want their first years living in literal ramshackle they play hot potato or divorced parents with them#Riddle can handle them for a few days before the rulebreaking gets too much or they get sugar high#Leona lets them run wild. the others can stand not knowing what theyre doing 24/7 when they know Leona wont step in.#so they start badgering leona who get fed up and kicks the firsties out#Azul charges an exorbitant fee to host them but after a few too many instances of property damage to nor just the dorms but Monstro Lounge??#yea he's taking the offer off the menu for a bit#Kalim think theyre fun! but hes trying to not make Jamil mad at him so he doesn't host them too often#Vil like Riddle can handle them for a few days but anything beyond that is too much. he does need his dorm standing#Idia hosts them alot because hes glad hus brother made friends and any property damage can be handled.#but the extrovert energy freaks him and the other dorm members out so he tries to have them over in small doses with breaks in between#Malleus would love to host them!!! but between Lilia offering to cook for the firsties all the time#Sebek going stiff whenever Malleus is around and his arguments with Silver made Yuu veto the dorm#twisted wonderland#riddle rosehearts#leona kingscholar#jack howl#azul ashengrotto#kalim al asim#jamil viper#idia shroud#ortho shroud#vil schoenheit#malleus draconia#lillia vanrouge#sebek zigvolt#twst yuu#twst grim

for jobs, social groups, etc it's discouraged to pair up two stallions of similar temperament because they will fight and everyone else around them will be so annoyed like come onnn why are we holding up traffic for this
#im reading back over my notes and they're so funny#young men form bachelor bands and get gay with it but it's seen as inherently immature. like haha ok we all have a bi phase in college#time to settle down#the herd social structure is mare-led there's usually a boss mare who bullies everyone else to keep em in line#stallions don't get paired up ever in workplace situations but if they do end up fighting anyway#ur supposed to let them because they'll work it out usually without injury but if you interrupt them they'll bottle it up#ironwall

I hope you have a lovely day today. ❤️
Thank you! You too! 🧡
#I've been doing some gradual spring cleaning over past couple of weeks#feels nice I've got a lot of my closets and cabinets organized already#but today I've been just hella tired and shiftless and achey and it's already half past seven#so I guess I'll leave cleaning the freezer for tomorrow#a cool thing happened earlier this week I managed to buy a carved water buffalo skull for 20€#they're usually pretty pricey several hundred euros at minimum#been stressing about summer getting closer#and whether I should partake in art fight this year or not#it's fun but I always end up overwhelmed#really thrilled that it's no longer freezing outside and there's so much light it's really boosting my energy levels#eagerly waiting for the bike lanes to thaw#answered#anonymous
