[ cw: death mention / sibling death mention / isolation / ]
Thinking about how Leo’s portal and teleportation powers have both directly (and in one instance, indirectly) been the cause of him being separated from his brothers at least four times now.
There’s that time in Portal Jacked, where his inexperience leads to his portal being messed with and his brothers ending up in Tahiti.
There’s the Bad Timeline, where Leo’s portaling led to them losing the Key, therefore indirectly leading to the apocalypse and in turn, ending with Leo being the last of his brothers alive (though just for a few minutes.)
There’s him teleporting him and Krang into the Prison Dimension, cutting him off from his family so wholly that the only way to fix this was a literal mystic miracle.
Then there’s the comic, where Leo’s powers act up again and make him lose months of time completely isolated from everyone and everything he knows.
Just, looking at all of this, it’s like the universe gave him the powers of distance on purpose to test him (and his bros), literally seeing if they can overcome unimaginable space and still make it back together. Imagine if it doesn’t stop here, and Leo has to learn to either deal with the occasional complete isolation or deal with time travelers coming back to stop some terrible event his powers (whether directly or indirectly) have caused, events that always lead to separation in some way, shape, or form.
It’s worth noting, too, that his portals often led to accidental separation, but his teleportation was the one power of his that was used to isolate himself on purpose…and was also the one that in any other scenario would have been the most permanent.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#rise comic spoilers#tmnt 40th anniversary#adding those last two just in case even though it’s been months lol#anyway hiiii I still think about Leo all the time and the Implications of his abilities#I truly do think their powers matter sooooo much to their characters frfr#and it’s very very interesting to me that Leo’s whole lineup has everything to do with space and distance#and he himself is constantly forced away from his family#no but imagine this happening all the time - like…his abilities almost PURPOSEFULLY causing his separation in some way#maybe as a test? to test his and his family’s bonds? their bonds are what ultimately power them after all#Leo in particular has lacking faith in himself and his powers despite his confidence in other areas#and I wonder if that comes through in his abilities#I love Leo getting better and better at his powers but the innate self isolating/self destructing nature of them never leaves#Leo: no I don’t wanna be vulnerable#His Powers: no? but what if *this*#Leo: w h y#Leo: actually what if I do it MYSELF *teleports himself into the Prison Dimension*#His Powers: 👍#Mikey: 👎 ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️ NO????#leos over the years isolating themselves for training and/or self punishment indirectly leading to rise leo being cursed#(also I’m still gone haha this just hit by brain and I’m too tired to not write it out lmao)

In which Ford struggles so badly to relate to other people that he wonders if he’s really human at all. The more isolated he becomes, the harder it is to reconcile with his own humanity.

SO!!!!#I feel like Ford would wonder why he and Stan (being identical twins) aren’t. yk. identical. shouldn’t Stan have polydactyly too?#as a kid he would dream about secretly being nonhuman and being whisked away to a fantastical world full of people like him#finally free of new jersey‚ finally somewhere he belongs#a lot of this disconnect from humanity came from utterly failing at social interactions while others (including stan) navigated them easily#the feeling waned after Stan was kicked out and he didn't have that direct comparison but it never left#then out in the wilderness of gravity falls‚ his isolation and immersion in Weirdness dragged it back up to the forefront#he deserves to have a breakdown over questioning his own nature. as a treat <3#color symbolism time bc I have a problem and use it at every available moment!!! blue and yellow get more vivid#the further from humanity the subject is#bill is entirely made w pure rgb blue and yellow (+ approximately 2674835 textures/layers/blending modes.

I kinda wish the Pokemon anime would show off pokemon from future gens again.
That was a really fun anime thing.
#These pokemon aren't just gen locked.#They are animals that theoretically exist in most places#since older gen mons appear in future games it only makes sense that future gen mons appear in old gen areas too :)#Unova is an acception#I personally am under the belief that Unovian mons shouldn't exist outside their region (outside of regional variants)#Like how isolated island animals are tend to differ greatly from other animals#<- I want that for Unova.#And a bit for Alola too#kos speaks

Does the flower from your first n2 post have any significance? Why isn't it blooming?
Yes the flower here does have significance!
It’s a memorial flower, the exact species of flower is one I made up, it’s one that has a strange growth period, there’s no real way to tell when it’s going to bloom but it does only bloom at night.
John Dory got the seeds while on one of his searches and gave it to Floyd since at the time Floyd was severely depressed and was spending all day everyday in his room in the bunker. JD had given Floyd a bunch of seeds for a garden but Floyd ended up only planting one which he’s been taking care of since he planted it.
He planted it on Clays birthday so they refer to it as Clay’s flower, but it’s a memorial for all their lost family members, so their parents, grandma, Clay, and Spruce/Bruce
Other than just maintaining it, Floyd also talks to it like the ones they lost can hear him through the flower, he visits it at least once everyday while the other brothers only visit on anniversaries and birthdays. (They also only bring the lights and photos out then as well, to keep the photos safe from damage)
It’s Floyd’s way of grieving :)
#ryss responds#not the only one au#n2 au#trolls#trolls 3#trolls band together#trolls Floyd#I wanted to give them each a different way of grieving their family#JD is obsessively trying to correct his mistake (failing to save clay) by trying to find him and spruce if they’re still out there#branch isolates and builds a bunker to protect himself and what family he has left#and Floyd does gardening#they also refer to the area where the flower is as the garden or Floyd’s garden#even tho there’s only one flower#the area around the flower is also heavily booby trapped#the only people who know how to get to it are the brothers and poppy#this is to stop trolls from accidentally harming it and to stop critters from eating it#its a big flower by troll standards but by others its a small flower#in my head its one of those that are usually in clusters#but this one stands alone#maybe its a metaphor#who knows teehe#but yeah I’ve actually thought about the flower a lot#also the reason poppy knows where to find it and how to get to it is because she helps take care of it when Floyd’s away#she’s also the one who picked the spot#she doesn’t like the traps but any one she took down immediately got replaced so she stopped trying#and just learned the steps to get around them#btw the steps to get around the traps are the old choreo for a brozone song lmao#because I loved that aspect of tbgo where branch sets the paths around traps to songs from his childhood#so he done did it again

I loooove the jp fandom's headcanon that geeta and larry are childhood friends who met during their time in the academy and, sometime in the future, geeta personally recruited larry to work for the paldean pokemon league, as she must be one of the first people who knew of his prowess in pokemon battling! Like yeah, the whole geeta being a "strict boss who is frustrated by larry's stubborn insistence to be an average worker that she has to assign him different workloads just to broaden his horizon" idea is intriguing, but stepping it up a notch by making geeta be the "best friend a.k.a the only one who has seen larry at his very best and his very worst, and knows for a fact that he could excel at anything he put his mind into if he steps out of his comfort zone, so she doesn't particularly drag him out of said zone, but pushes him out of it each time she can because she can't bear to see her best friend be unaware of the good chances and positive things that awaits him out there, not if she has a (small) say in it" is also downright hilarious 😭🤚
#it's happened to me before which is why i think this headcanon isn't very far-fetched! it's actually so big-brained even lmaooo 😭😭😭#like. i happened to befriend a stupidly genius in high school and she's why i got into a reputable uni in the first place. she dragged me t#study even when i was never in the mood and look at what it did to my high school grades! look at the strict habits that got me through uni#it's also kinda like when you're isolating yourself after a bad breakup and your friend has to physically drag you out to eat. maybe to get#piss drunk as well. all because they know that it's better to have company than to rot alone in your room with your thoughts... you get me?#that's geeta and larry in my eyes. larry's whole line about sticking to flat well-trodden path isn't about making him a famous trainer to#inspire paldea (geeta's whole goal). it's just to show larry that there are other good things too if he takes a peek outside!#and at the end of the day geeta meant well with that advice. that all she wants is for larry to see more of the world than what he's used t#which... idk. i think it's just more heartwarming to think of that advice coming from a friend! even if said friend is also your strict bos#also makes larry's quiet fuming even funnier LMAOOOO 😭😭😭 sometimes you have to suck it up and endure your besties' whims#but this is not a silly and whimsical whim. this is straight-up corporate whim. larry's not surprised he ended up patrolling area zero 🤣#if you've read this far and wanna see jp fanart of them on pixiv i can refer them to you privately! all of them are lovely and heartwarming#champion geeta#gym leader larry#elite four larry#pokemon#pokemon scarlet and violet#pokemon scarvio#scarvio#paldea

I'm becoming more and more skeptical of the concept of bad acting.
"People don't act/talk like that."
Maybe you just haven't met enough people.
#statcat original posts#i feel like i'm so socially isolated too#but i have my weekly volunteering at the zoo#which is in a downtown area of a big city and gets all sorts of people coming through#and there are SO MANY types of people#people act and talk in so many different ways#and also i'm autistic and know i don't always act or talk how people consider ''normal''#i've had my body language wildly misinterpreted#people are so varying

To my knowledge I don’t think anyone’s ever necessarily said non-Muslims or people who aren’t Arab can’t wear keffiyeh/hattah but I’ll admit I do start to feel weird sometimes when pro-Palestinian activists here in the west start wearing it like a costume. The turning the Palestinian flag into an accessory thing, too, is… idk. I get people wanting to show their support for a movement they feel passionate about.
Maybe there’s just something about seeing it on a college campus in a very large liberal city specifically that makes me start thinking about how many Muslims in the diaspora still don’t have the option to wear cultural symbols like that just for their own safety. There’s something about seeing a non-Muslim, non-Arab college student wearing a keffiyeh that was clearly mass produced with rushed messy stitching that makes me feel a little unsettled.
Cultural symbols are powerful things and I don’t think that power should be discounted, but bc they’re symbols they’re also all too easily divorced from any one specific message or meaning. Someone w zero connection to Palestine wearing Palestinian flag earrings is like; what does that actually tell me about their politics? I never know what to think of that. And I’m wary of how western activists can treat causes like sports teams. (And meanwhile lord knows I would not have an easy time if I walked outside right now wearing a kippah or magen david.)
#I guess you could argue that it normalizes some of those cultural symbols#so the Muslim students who want to wear them won’t have to feel as overly visible right#but again like. I don’t know that that changes anything for the Muslims in more isolated or conservative areas#maybe I’m just biased as someone converting to judaism bc I think jews tend to have veeryyyyy different feelings about those kinds of#symbols. and for good reason#if everyone started wearing kippot to show they totally cared about dead jews I think I’d go crazy#palestine

Reminder that the Paris coven is not actually a governing body of any kind. It's literally just a cult.
#iwtv#there are no vampire laws#this is just a group that uses violence to enforce an arbitrary set of rules on vampires in the area#there is no purpose to it except controlling the members' lives for all eternity#the rules are designed to isolate the members and to force them to be subservient to the leader#they are inconsistently applied and adhered to because all that matters is the members being dependent on and loyal to the leader#the only rule that isn't solely for the purpose of obtaining and maintaining control over the members#is the no turning children or the disabled one#and this is because it reflects the leader's moral views#these aren't universal things all vampires in this world adhere to

2024 reads / storygraph
The Loudest Silence
YA contemporary
a newly Deaf-Hard of hearing girl moves across the country and starts a new school, struggling with navigating her disability and love for singing and lost friendships - determined to not make any new friends for the year she’s in Florida
and a boy struggling with family expectations and anxiety, after being made the fútbal captain even though he secretly ways to be on broadway, who quickly befriends her
bi & aroace-coded MCs
#The Loudest Silence#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#hm this was okay! it’s a sweet and light YA contemporary focusing on friendship and disability.#It’s a little cheesy; and I liked the immediate easy friendship (well; after a few false starts) and how welcoming Hayden's#friend group/family were. I like how they all jumped to learning/practicing ASL.#I liked how Casey was dealing with her newfound Deafness with a lot of positivity - the main frustrations being how other people treat her#but there’s also the underlying isolation and grief. At the same time it didn't go as deep as it could have with that?#The friendship is central to the story - but honestly I feel like Casey and Hayden’s relationship doesn’t develop past ‘they’re friends now#[continues other subplots] - it ends up being a bit telling not showing their friendship. And then she gets a love interest.#I feel like if you’re centering your book on being a platonic love story - rare in YA! - giving one a love interest kinda goes against#what’s supposed to be unique about it? Like it wasn’t overwhelming and I thought it was sweet actually; I just didn’t come here for that.#I always find it a little odd when YA contemporary books don’t explicitly name their aroace characters as aroace -#obviously I prefer an exploration of experiences to just using the word and nothing else; but in this genre; why not both?#considering various other identity labels are used and discussed there were various points where it felt like it was walking circles#around where it would be obvious to say “no I’m aroace” lmao?#And there’s a point where Casey mentions seeing an ace sticker on his guitar - the only reason it wasn’t an aroace sticker is bc#that would have ruined the minor subplot of her assuming he’s gay/dating his other friend. It felt like a slightly odd way to mention it?#but also I guess I appreciate it being evident throughout but also being a non-issue plot wise - while there’s a couple of moments#of people making romantic assumptions about them;for the most part it’s just treated normally for a boy & girl to be friends (as it should!#It does get points for mentioning people watching by conan grey LMAO (not that it really explores him feeling that way specifically;#but I mean same lol)#Overall plot-wise - there were kind of a lot of things going on and it petered out a bit? I wanted some more depth in some areas.#Also I feel like some of the references seemed out of date for current teens haha.#i do love the love for unusual pets (hairless cat and iguana)#aroace books#bisexual books
