TMayNT Day 25: Your Turtlesona

Day 25 of @tmaynt Prompt: Your Turtlesona!

*breaths in deeply*

I think you fuckers know exactly what and who I'm about to gush over for a bit! Let 's do this shit! XD

So for those that are new to me and my content, Hi! And I'm not sorry for the lore dump I'm about to bash you over the head with! For those of you that ARE aware of me, heyyyy! I'm gunna hit you over the head with my lore once again!

This is Sasha The Cheetah!

I guess you could call her a "Turtlesona", but I don't really see her as an extension of myself, so she's really just a Fan Character! One of the first ones I've ever made actually. If you wanna know more about her and her other versions (She has 11 for fuck sake!) I'll link her very own in depth post, along with the posts I made for Fortnite and Mutant Mayhem Specifically as well, since they came along later. The major Sasha Post, Mutant Mayhem, and Fortnite!

2003 Sasha (The one in front with the pointy crystal on her neck), was the first version I ever made. She started out VERY different then what she now, and when the Turtles Forever movie came out, that's when I started playing with the idea of more versions of her. And Well...you see where that led me!

Each version, while the same character, all have their own distinct personalities and goals. Their relationships with the turtles even differ in a few versions. Even their Backstories differ a lot, as in some, she's a mutated Cheetah, others she's a human turned into s mutant! Their powers and abilities are also vastly different from version to version! In some she has power over electricity and wind, others she's a healer, some only have the ability to cast magic, in some they have no powers what so ever, and in one in particular, SHE A LITERAL FUCKING GOD!

The core similarities tho at the heart of each one are:

She is a Cheetah. (Of some variant.)

She has a strong bond with Donnie. (Be that romantic or otherwise.)

Cares deeply for their motivations in life.

And with each version, I do my best to convey which version of the TMNT through how they are drawn! Now, of course, some of my own style will peek through in each one. But I do my best to make it easy to tell which Sasha goes with which set of turtles. And I've done my best to make each version fit with the lore and story that their version of the TMNT goes by. (In some cases not enough is known, so I'll play with it a bit in those cases.)I've even thought about Voices for each one, currently still working on that post. (It's a monster of a post, but I'm hoping it will be worth it.)

I could keep going for hours, but. I don't wanna waste more of your time then I already have! Thank you for your time! And I hope you like my cheeb baby! She's my pride and joy, and i hope you at least found her interesting! (And if you checked out her other posts, uhhhh, let me know what you think. you know....if you want. X3)

characters have to be a little bit awful in ways that you cant defend. its good for the ecosystem. your honor he did do that. He did in fact do that

[havendance]

Brainstorming the best points in canon for various bat-girls/women to get turned into cats for fic purposes (I am accepting suggestions):

Cass: One year later. She gets turned into a cat instead of the whole deathstroke thing. Tim finds her when he returns to Gotham and begs to be allowed to keep. Alfred says no though, so he calls in a favor with Barbara and Cass gets stuck with the OYL Birds of Prey crew and has to sit through Shiva and Barbara bitching at each other about a number of topics that also includes Cass herself seeing as she’s gone missing

Alternatively: That vaguely at the end of post-crisis setting so many fics have. She is recently returned to Gotham when she gets turned into a cat. Unfortunately for her, when trying to investigate, she gets stuck under Damian’s care as part of one of Bruce’s attempts to teach his son responsibility (unaware that the cat is his missing daughter). Neither of them are particularly happy with this but they grow on each other.

Helena: Post Birds of Prey #80. Helena has just stormed out of the Aerie post argument with Barbara when she suddenly gets transformed into a cat. She gets picked up by Dinah, who thinks she’s adorable, and gets stuck as the Bird’s mascot/pet. Helena would rather be a anywhere else but instead she is stick listening to Dinah grump at Barbara for how she handled the situation, and watching Barbara get the Braniac virus, and everyone keeps giving her head scratches and well maybe it isn’t that bad after all.

Barbara: Her Suicide Squad era. She wakes up one morning as a cat and has complicated feeling about how she isn’t paralyzed in this dorm. She then hangs around Suicide Squad headquarters listening in on people (and collecting pets) until Waller figures out how to transform her back.

Stephanie: War Games. Half-dead and staggering through Gotham after escaping Black Mask, Steph gets turned into a cat by a well-meaning magic user trying to save her life. Spoiler is presumed dead/missing in the gang war while Cat!Steph ends up hanging around either Leslie’s clinic or maybe Selina (I need to read more Catwoman comics), recovering and grappling with the results of her actions.

(Bonus) Bruce: His loser era (pre-Murderer/Fugitive). Sasha thought that that learning that Bruce Wayne was Batman would mean that he wasn’t able to ditch her anymore. Appearently not. Now she has to figure out where the hell Batman went, cover for Bruce Wayne’s disappearance, and also take care of the new cat he apparently obtained. She isn’t getting paid enough for this.

What do you think is the most important trait for Jason? This is totally the first time I've ever asked you this question

Yep totally the first time. I didnt accidentally delete the first ask at all

Anyway the answer is his hypocrisy.

Now, I know I talk a lot about Jason's love and his fears and stuff, but I think all of his everything can be better understood through his hipocrisy and his actions vs his words. Here's some instances that stick out to me:

• Sasha/Scarlet from Batman and Robin (2009)

One of Jason's Most Hated Things is the concept of child sidekicks. He hates that shit so much. However, he literally kidnaps a child from a mental health facility to make her his sidekick.

[Batman and Robin Vol.1 #3]

(While Morrison's Jason is... far from good, the concept of Sasha is one of my absolute favorites, so we're talking about it.)

Jason preaches about Batman being morally wrong for having another Robin after his death, and yet he takes Sasha with him to bloody, disgusting massacres he commits, and encourages her to participate in his "branding," exposing her to the violence of his beliefs.

[Batman and Robin (2009) #4]

BUT!! It's important to note that Jason cares about Sasha a lot. To the point where he's willing to work with Dick and Damian to get her to safety (aka, with him).

[Batman and Robin (2009) #25]

He actively teaches her violence and hatred and these very polarizing beliefs, and he does that because he loves her.

• Jason's idea of a criminal in Beast World

We all know Jason's backstory. We all know he stole the tires of the Batmobile and that's how he met Bruce. That story implies that Jason committed a lot of petty theft before he got picked up by Bruce, and it was his main source of income.

In UTRH, it's talked about how Jason belives that Bruce isn't effective against the "dress-ups" because they know he won't kill them, implying that Jason kills to scare said dress-ups, the bigger fish.

However, in the Scavengers story, we get this speech bubble:

[Beast World: Gotham: Scavengers (2024)]

Jason, as a child, is willing to do what he needs to survive, and yet kills other people who are doing the exact same thing. He talks about hunting down the bigger fish but we never get to see him actually do that at any point. (Seriously, the only Rogue I can remember him killing is Captain Nazi. Which was 8 years ago.) Instead, we get canon confirmation that he harms the little guy, the ones who are just trying to get by.

• Robin vs Red Hood and sex work

When Jason is Robin, we see him hurt pimps and (maybe) kill Felipe Garzonas for sexually assaulting women. He's pretty strongly against the abuse that comes with sex work.

[Batman (1940) #422 and #424]

But in UTRH, it's stated that Jason literally becomes a pimp.

[Under The Red Hood (2006)]

There's nothing to indicate that he treats his girls any better or any worse than other pimps in Gotham, but the fact he becomes a pimp at all is enough to prove my point.

(That panel is also the best way to show my... mild distaste for utrh)

There are definitely plenty more instances of things like this but those were the first to come to mind. Hope the answer is satisfactory!!

[kationella]

All of Bruce's canon exes should unionize. Benefits include:

Medical coverage in case of torture at the hands of villains

List of safe channels where they can sell all that expensive jewelry he gave them (guess who ends up stealing them from the buyers and the first two guesses don't count)

Discounts for the sooner flight out of Gotham, cause you're cursed now for some reason. Speaking of...

Paid funerary services in case of your death

In The Evening...

We wanted to help! This is nothing to us, we host catering events all the time in Kalos and Paldea, a walk in the park in comparison!

We all haven't been together like this since your quinceañera all that time ago.

[Nat stares off for a moment, recalling just how much time had passed. He was still living in Sinnoh at the time, with only half the gym badges in his possession that the region supplied. It really was a long time since they all were together in one spot, without missing anyone.]

[A whistle from a short distance away gets his attention, Nat doing a double take as he spots the origin of the whistle.]

Nat: I can't believe you're sending me to the kid's table, I'm not THAT much younger than you guys.

[The group is all set to host and interact with everyone!]

((notes, ask hints, and refs under the cut))

Due to the nature of hosting the event in this blog’s setting, everyone who is normally available for asks are still available during the event! The only ones who have event exclusive refs and hints are the group pictured above (in order: Daniella, Gabe, Raymond, Michael, Adam, Nat, Sasha, Cooper, Luxu, and Oscar)

Island Family (Gabe, Dani, Triplets)

(Gabe) drink recommendation, make small talk, use standard ask hints

(Ray/Michael/Adam) food, what they do outside the island, family role and location

Champion's Table (Nat, Cooper, Sasha)

things they did together in Sinnoh

what they're up to now

(Sasha) what it's like being around/training under Cynthia

(Cooper) what he does in Unova

The Rais (Oscar, Luxu)

(Oscar) differences in celebrations in the past, where Xoloet is, symbolism of the regalia he and Luxu wear

(Luxu) ask to play games, favorite treats of the season

[onnahu]

If there's something Jason got from his time with Bruce it's his wild adoption instincs.

But when Bruce collects black haired, blue eyed boys, Jason have emotionally and physically scarred, red haired girls.

Bc Duela Dent? Sasha (Scarlet)? (In my mind Sasha is a redhead, sue me)

He likes them both more then anyone in his family.

[iris-echos]

Guys i need a quote for a thing does anyone have an iconic/funny quote (it needs to be school appropriate tho) from anyone in the batfam, the magnus archives, welcome to nightvale, dungeons and daddies, or any of my other fandoms if you now what they are

[multi-fandom-enjoyer]

Bruce lands in front of Barry, Kara, and Y/n, who were all crowded around each other.

Bruce: What happened. Where's the emergency?

Y/n: There is none. We knew you wouldn't come unless you thought there was one.

Kara: We just wanted to show you this...

She moves a curtan out of the way to show him a "Happy Bat(man) Appreciation Day!" banner.

Bruce: W-wow, thank you.

Y/n: You're welcome. We thought it was the least we could do after we missed International Batman Day.

Kara smiled and lightly nudged you in the ribs as Barry began talking to Bruce.

[knight-in-baggy-sweatpants]

how has no one made an AU fic of the Batfamily as drag queens with Bruce as the House Mother. can you IMAGINE. "The Legendary House of Wayne" oh i'm SICK. Alfred never really considering himself a part of the House because he doesn't do drag but he did raise Bruce, Cass as a completely silent drag queen/king called Hush or something, Steph who also doesn't do drag and also isn't officially a part of the House but Bruce still sees her as a daughter(ie he was still the one to teach her how to do makeup and style outfits and such just like his drag daughters), Bruce viewing Jason searching for his birth mother as a rejection of the House, DAMIAN still being Bruce's only biological child who has no idea where he fits in the family and doesn't understand House structure, Dick being so lost and angry and never wanting someone to replace his parents but accepting Bruce as his drag mother but not "real mother", leading to painful misunderstandings, DUKE originally having two loving, supportive parents and only knowing the House because he's friends with Tim/Steph/Cass, coming to live with Bruce after his parents are hospitalized, and the emotional moment of him becoming Bruce's drag daughter 🥹

DON'T TALK TO ME I CANNOT STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS. SOMEONE WHO KNOWS MORE ABOUT DRAG HOUSES PLEASE WRITE THIS FIC.

[a-bad-case-of-the-stephs]

Like on logical level I totally see the purpose in not telling Steph ‘The Secret’ when she was sanctioned as spoiler and working with and training with Batman. Like Bruce is understandably fairly stingy about who he tells about his secret identity, and not telling Steph at that moment in time would make a lot of logical sense. (When BW murderer begins even Cass doesn’t know his identity, tho I do think her situation is extremely different to Steph’s and she would have been told if she asked no question about it)

That being said, not telling Steph would make a lot of logical sense if Steph’s time being part of the team as spoiler wasn’t occurring pretty much simultaneously with Sasha Bordeaux’s introduction and plot.

Like around this exact same time, Batman literally lets Sasha fucking Bordeaux find out his secret identity because he’s lonely and he fell in love with her. I guess.

Like it really cheapens the whole significance of The Secret and erodes the logic behind not telling Steph if Bruce Wayne is simultaneously enacting a Billionaire CEO Falls In Love With my Bodyguard AU?? 🥀🥀💔💔 romance which supremely involves him letting Sasha find out he is Batman.

Hmmm. Actually there might be something here. Going to compare Sasha Bordeaux to Steph brown real quick.

Both blond, both initials are SB, both hang out with Batman mainly around Officer down through bw murderer.

Batman saw how allowing civilians (Sasha Bordeaux and Vesper Fairchild) into his life, specifically with Sasha as someone he brought into the Batman side of his life, ruined their lives. Vesper is dead, Sasha has been abandoned in prison and is now a checkmate agent who totally hates him. As a result, he reevaluates who he (thinks he has) brought into the Batman Gotham vigilante sphere. He connects/identifies Steph as more civilian than vigilante for whatever reason (as seen in tec 790) (potentially bc of her the death of her father, and reminder of her still living civilian mother, maybe he sees that as a chance for her to live a normal life now that her dad is dead?) and then as bw murderer/fugitive wraps up, fires her unceremoniously.

So an additional way to read his firing of Steph as spoiler is as a result of the disastrous consequences of allowing civilians to get to know him as Bruce Wayne (vesper fairchilds murder) but also specifically the consequences of pushing civilians into Batman’s sphere (w Sasha Bordeaux). Obviously this logic is flawed because stephanie had been Involved in vigilantism with or without Batman’s approval, he didn’t push her into it at all, and by training her he is making her much safer than she would be without supplies and training, and firing her will obviously not get her to stop fighting crime, but since when has Bruce let the truth get in the way of his completely damaging and destructive self flagellation?

Panels which I think substantiate this reading in no particular order and with no particular context and which I won’t expand upon or find better examples of:

Detective #765

Detective #772

Detective #775

Batman #605

[cutebat]

Decided to draw Noelle and Sasha from the neglected batfam series, even though nobody asked

(This is them in another universe)

And yes, they are part of my Batgirl series.

supergirl || the flash (2023)

[arthurmorgay]

my hot take is that if matt reeves ever wishes to incorporate the world's finest duo™ in his universe, he should give sasha calle a call anytime

the side by side looks good enough 2 me
