I need help with finding a tmnt fic that I believe was on ao3. It was one of those fics where the 03 and rottmnt versions meet, but with the rottmnt guts acting like actual animals. No talking, hunting for food, chirping, growling. That type of stuff.
I really want to try and fund it again because I really liked it when the 03 guys mistook Red for being a female because he was taking care of his brothers, and they got to nicknaming him 'Mama'.
If anyone can find it, can you please tell me the title of the book and if it is on ao3?
Please?

Scoria and Sakura are best friends! It's so cute when I see the things they do together, and it makes me so beyond happy that they both came to live with me so that they could share their lives with each other. They absolutely insist on it, and does so much good for the other.
I can't imagine how else they could have found happiness if things hadn't worked out exactly as they did. Scoria has basically been Sakura's "emotional support snake" while she worked through things from her past I'll never fully know that caused her a lot of issues with panic and fear. Sakura knows this too, and looks out for her sister, the only one she truly trusts and feels completely safe with.
The moment they wake up they both want each other to snuggle and play with. Scoria loves to be affectionate with both me and her sister who seems to have not had this earlier in her life- but Scoria is showing her how nice it is not only directly but demonstrating with me and Sakura also trying, copying what she has seen her sister do.
Sometimes when one goes to check on the other they'll join in on... I'm not even sure what they were doing. But they had a good time while taking a mandated union break from digging tunnels for the isopods.
So happy I get to share in the adventures of these two best friends! It makes me so happy to see them living their best lives together, and being beyond content snuggled together with their found family.
#cute#pets#snakes#friends#animals#I think Sakura tried copying Scoria and didn't quite get the full memo#So she went down the front bark and Scoria went down the back which leads into diggy dirt#And Sakura was like#“I followed friend into bark but where is friend???”#Meanwhile Scoria was probably oblivious her little sister was trying to find her & she may was well have her front half going into a portal#Eventually they found each other fully#And were very clear they prefer their home far more than this enclosure they helped build tunnels for#I'm glad to know they like their home#While I do want to make it more aesthetically pleasing#the current focus was filling it with things they enjoy#Specifically things they have a lot of fun playing with or on#I want their home to be the place they feel safe but also enjoy being in#not a prison#a bedroom#I think they like their enclosure but they sometimes don't want to go in it because they also really enjoy spending time with me#Scoria really does#but also communicates effectively when she is sleepy from playing and needs to rest#as much as they love each other when they go to sleep for the night they sleep alone#even with the option to stay near each other#I think this is nature rather than something I taught them by separating them into their own enclosures after play time#which makes me wonder if humans classified them as solitary just because they don't want room mates#like plenty of people i know choose to live alone but that doesn't mean they are introverts/solitary#I wonder if wild hoggies sleep alone (not counting brumation) and their social lives outside their den was completely ignored#Like I bet they live in a neighborhood or kingdom or whatever you want to call it#The fact they can communicate“I'm friendly let's be nice to each other”indicates a species that regularly comes into contact with each other

I really don't have time to be bummed out right now so I made them a little sad instead.
#Sad posting I guess? Ah teh dichotomy of feeling tired while also thinking sleeping is a waste of time. Just so much to do! 😤#connverse#steven quartz universe#connie maheswaran#my shiz#steven universe#su#skedoobles#Messy sketchbook#Also I lost my XpPen nibs. And it's just so out of character of me to not put them where they always were?#It took me this long to realize my screen is scratched up because my current had already worn out. And I can't find the replacement nibs! 😭#I always put my extra nibs in the box where I put my laptop is on top of. But they're not there??? But why would I move them? I#seriously could not remember!#Also just in case I mixed them with my older tab's nibs so I checked it..... Those nibs are missing too! Like. Why on Earth????? Why#would I separate the nibs from the rest of that tab! Everything was tucked away inside that box but the nibs aren't????#I am so confused. I'm the only one who could've moved them. But WHY would I do that???? So uncool past me. So uncool. >:(#Anyway.#I barely am finished a single submission for connverse week. 😅 I'll try finishing at least that one today#chibi

by far the most vexing part of regular exercise is the need to shower regularly. my standard of personal hygiene is such that i shower when it becomes too uncomfortable to sleep, which i'm sure everyone thinks is gross but like. i do what i gotta do. during my worst autoimmune flares i could go like ten days between showers bc i couldn't stop sleeping & absolutely could not spend energy on Cleaning My Body. nowadays if i exclusively lay in bed, i can go 2-3 days between showers (when it isn't hot) before i feel Yucky. but if i exercise?? fuck me. ya bitch has to get in the wet box every goddamn day. i go out and shamble my crippled ass over a few miles, wandering wherever my ADHD whims take me, and then i have to save enough energy for showering because there's this WHOLE OTHER TASK that i have to do now before i can sleep. otherwise i will be uncomfortably aware of The Sludge and The Slime and The Skin and lay awake for hours. i am TIRED of washing my hair and scrubbing off grime. Let Me Exercise Without Getting Gross!!!
#this could be solved if i swam instead of walking but currently#my swim habits are impeded by executive dysfunction and spotty car access#with walking i can just put on my shoes and leave. dangerous kid impulses turned adult self-care#now i'm sure in a month i'll be back to sedentary flopping because i lack the attention span for long-term habits#but i'm letting the walking bug bite me for as long as it's willing.#just got out of the wet box. which i surrendered to after 3 hours of trying to sleep.#autoimmune tag

I do love that I'm both freezing and having the worst back pains.
But at least I still have a roof above my head, right?
#personal#so here's the thing:#i don't think any of the radiators in my apartment are currently working#which kind of sucks bc it's winter in northern europe lmao#one of them had blown a fuse. which i changed yesterday. and now it's cold again. so there's definitely something wrong with it#two of them. which are located in my bedroom/living room combination. have red lights on#but they are both cold and not heating up my apartment. which means i'm freezing here#so it could be a thermostat or something. i don't know#but because my place was a mess. after having worked for a few months and not having energy to do anything else#i had to clean up here yesterday. because i couldn't call my landlord who lives closeby in case he decided to drop in and see#the mess i was living in. to you know. check on those radiators#so anyway. my apartment is pretty okay now. stuff i still need to clean though but it's mostly minor#but i seem to have strained my lower back doing it. or from sleeping in an awkward position because i was cold#the kind of pain i haven't experienced in months which must be a record for me now#but yeah now my lower back hurts. i can't properly crouch or even twist my body to the side without my knees trying to give out#and i've already taken painkillers for it today. which kind of put me to sleep again and had a lovely little nap a while ago#but this is bothersome#i hope my back feels better by tomorrow so i can finish my cleaning and then message my landlord#because i don't want to freeze here anymore xD and i also don't want my houseplants dying because of it so

That dream I had last night is still bothering me but I just learned how to deal with it (thanks tumblr post I saw 👍) and now I'm drawing something to try and calm down
#I'm learning to regulate my emotions now yayyy :D#and I can't see a psychiatrist or a therapist so i'm having to learn it on tumblr.com/dashboard but that's okay it still works 👍#currently drawing some cute self ship art. because I think it would fix me :3#yes it's almost midnight but i can't risk going to sleep and having another upsetting dream that triggers me again#soooo I'm just taking skme time to try and calm down enough to where I can go to sleep#and be able to guarantee that I won't have anymore dreams like that#also i meant processing my emotions in the first tag oops (I'm very tired as you can probably tell lol)

(sorry I'm not super here at the moment because I'm just incredibly exhausted for no apparent reason, but I do make tiny frustrating steps towards doing more stuff!!)
#thoughts#trying to balance the “being in vacation to sleep forever” VS “being in vacation to actually do my own stuff for a change”#I wish you'd sleep in pocket dimensions that would slow down time#also also I'm soooo excited for the current scene in thralls#it's the OoT Kneeling/show of fealty one!! and it's everything I hoped for honestly#it's long tho it's like 5'20 so it's taking me some time#but I'm seeing the finish line#if I could gather enough energy tomorrow and monday to lock it down it would be really neat#then I'll share some screenshots because I have some cool ones in this scene!!#I think I'm getting significantly better as I go#which is starting to be a problem for the earlier scenes.....#the never ending cycle :((((

Me: I have a few FitPac ideas but I don't think I've written that much.
The document:
#The joke here is that this is only one of two documents I have compiling my stuff for them#WAIT NO. THREE. THREE DOCUMENTS#I forgot I had a new idea and pulled up a new document to write in a frenzy#I'm really bad about posting 'ficlets' or things that I don't think are polished 100%#so of this MAYBE I'll wind up with a ~5000 word piece after writing 20000 words or so#I write a lot but only like 5% of what I write ever sees the light of day#I'm still working on the structure rn for the current one and that's always the hardest part#This might wind up being a 5 times or whatever fic because there are too many similar things I want to write but all in a different light#but not different enough to be their own thing#idk I'm tired and stressed rn so I'm dropping this into Word TTS so I can hear it be read back to me while I try to chill & sleep#agh.#i talk#fic talk#qsmp talk#I never write in Word anymore I write in docs now since 90% of my writing these days is on mobile#I just never have time to write#and I can't focus anymore

Do I give Avalon (my TTGC OC) an Urianger-esque style of speaking (so, like, lots of "thou"s and "thee"s and "art"s and "wouldst"s and so on and so forth)
I'm not sure whether they've featured in anything that I've made and posted here, but I do still have a DQIX WIP (since, they appear there as part of my party in my version of events where I selfship with Pavo!) where they don't have that style of speaking, but it may not fit as well there because Pavo and Ardea already speak quite formally anyway. So this could just be a TTGC quirk.
#they're meant to be themed around the archetype of a knight in shining armour.. they're named after something from arthurian legend..#these are already both quite archaic things.. do I dare try to go all the way#this is relevant because they appear in my current piece of writing and I'd quite like to get the writing posted on thursday#so any opinions are welcome#heart of the void#friend: shattered light (avalon)#OC F/Os#platonic F/Os#I was not going to add a poll and then I remembered that polls exist so#have a poll#while I sleep#because it's gone two o'clock in the morning *again*#and *yes* i'm aware I didn't give myself an option but! I figured out how to view poll results without voting on them! so I do not need one

I don't know if it's rude to ask, so apologies in advance if I sound mean, but… how come you repeatedly bring up old posts of yours from three or more years ago? Do you remember each original post you make and intentionally bring them back? Like, I don't think there's anything wrong, your blog can be whatever you want, obviously, and your stuff is always funny or curious in some way, just… I'm kind of lost as of how it came to be, I guess? I don't think I remember my own posts after 6 months, much least if I have to go back to 2020!
ahaha no it's usually just because i'm going back through a tag looking for something else! i recently went back through my entire "my posts" tag (which contains...1468 posts, dear lord) and while i was doing that saw several posts that i felt like reblogging for whatever reason. so it's usually not that i remember them and go looking for them on purpose, it's that i come across them incidentally in the course of doing something else.
if you want to know why i reblog them after coming across them, 1) usually i don't! you are seeing the tip of the iceberg lol, and 2) it's mostly because it's hard to resist the "sooo true, bestie" urge, even when the bestie is just...yourself.
#sometimes...things that are written by me...are things i agree with#but oftentimes they are not once a few years have passed lol. i mean i just looked at 1468 posts by yours truly#and queued probably 1% of them#oh i also went through my asks tag which was another 500 or so posts#if you want to know why i'm putting myself through this it's for a really ridiculous reason#namely: several nights ago i had insomnia brought on by (get this) being too excited to sleep because my brain wouldn't stop#coming up with crosslinguistic french/english puns#and a couple of them in particular i was like oh god this would be a great tumblr username!#however as i've said before i had no plans to ever change my username (even though i don't like it)#because doing so would break any links that contain my current username#i had resigned myself to just living with this username forever. but once i thought of some usernames i actually like#it became harder to resist the urge to change it...#so now i have this convoluted plan to try to identify and tag as many of the links as i can#so that after i switch names i can go back and fix the links#however i'm not sure how feasible this is. there are a lot of links#and no matter what i do short of going through all 45k posts on this blog i will be bound to miss some of them anyway#(i think getting a domain would solve this problem but i don't wanna get a domain bc i'd have to give wordpress my legal name)#indecisive superhero meme w the buttons 'the need to have punny username' vs. 'the need to be able to find things on my blog'#asks#anon#actually anon probably the majority of the time i rb something i wrote 3 years ago it's bc i forgot about it#i come across it and am like oh yeah! this! and it's like a brand new discovery so i put it back on the dash lol#anyway thanks for your ask! i got a kick out of it 😂

If you think Dream's immune system is bad, you should see mine
#usually i just get a cold/covid/the flu/some sort of virus like every other week#but I'm currently trying not to puke going on 3 weeks with the same stupid virus thing#i haven't been able to sleep for the last 2 hours because it feels like my chest and throat are ripping open#and I'm shaking uncontrollably 🫠

where’s that post about how annoying it is how good exercise is for you
because after working on my back and shoulder muscles for the past few months, I’ve suddenly noticed a distinct lack of pain and soreness and tightness that I’ve never felt before and it’s so fucking weird and I am ANNOYED
#like#used to be when I even just scratched the skin of my upper back I could feel how tight everything was#but now it just... feels... like... skin????#I was on my feet for 12 hours straight for three days this past weekend#and I kept wiggling around the way I do when my back is sore#just out of habit you know?#and I kept getting confused as to why I wasn't feeling anything in my muscles until I realized it was because there wasn't anything TO feel?#like what the actual fuck#I'm currently sitting here wiggling around trying to find a single spot of soreness or tightness#and just coming up empty#it's so fucking weird how bodies work man#I've been doing strength shit twice a week since january#I've slowly worked up to using 20lb weights in each hand#which I've been using for idk two months#and it was literally just overnight one day a week ago that I noticed this#it was the same with the stretches I've been doing#just suddenly one day after working at it for ages I could put my palms flat on the floor from standing#suddenly one day I could squat down with my feet flat#it's like one day my body was like all right let's install this upgrade while this bitch sleeps#I JUST DID IT AGAIN. I WAS SLOUCHING AND STRAIGHTENED MY NECK AND ANTICIPATED STIFFNESS AND THERE WAS NONE#GOD.#I hate how right the pro-exercise people are!!!!!#(I also wish to make clear that my work schedule is fucking insane and in exchange for 12+ hour days I get four days off every week)#(which is the only way I've been able to keep to an exercise routine)#(capitalism is terrible for our health in so many ways and preventing most people from having time or energy to exercise is just one!)

The universe truly hates me, my dog is doing better (a whole night of sleep!!!) and I was finishing my coffee, ready to start working, and my father called me to talk for an hour 😭
#my dog was sleeping so well and was so quiet#i haven't done much the past 2 days because every time he made a noise i ran to him to check what i could do to help him#but noooo I'm never allowed to do shit#ugh let's see if I can get 3 hours of work at least#just 3 isn't asking much#i technically have another 6 hours to reach that goal#because i try working until 11:30pm now that it's winter and i wake up late#currently I'm not wasting time typing this btw I'm waiting for the stuff i need to warm up to heat because I'm too cold to think 🙃
