Been thinking a lot ab transfem 2012 leo lately,,,,​ :]

I love she. I like to think she secretly wears eye makeup under her mask while still in the closet. She's just happy to know she has it on even if no one else sees it. Sad that she can't put anything on her actual eyelids or she'll get caught :( so she just kinda puts it around her eyes. It still looks good when her eyes are open.

And she's actually like good at it too, making art on her face. She tries it once and suddenly it's her favorite past time hobby (even above Space Heroes), trying out different looks and styles. She searches up color theory and complexions and everything, though she has to learn a lot by herself since she has green skin. She's probably watched a thousand makeup videos. And she keeps this up for months without being caught, being the ninja that she is. It becomes so normal to her to the point that when her mask flies off during a fight with some bad guy she doesn't even realize how big a deal it is at first, lol.

After she does get found out she just says she likes makeup, not mentioning anything about being trans. April is ecstatic about Leo's hobby and buys her all kinds of makeup stuff like fake eyelashes, despite April herself not being that into makeup. Karai joins in too, teaching Leo some edgier looks. Sometimes they wear matching makeup.

Raph and Donnie are a bit weirded out at first but they can see this is, for some reason, important to Leo so they refrain from making any rude comments, even if just jokingly. Mikey loves it, he is fully supportive. Probably asks Leo to do his makeup once or twice. He is a bit jealous that Leo is trying to take his place as the cutest turtle though.

Raph appriciates the artsiness of it and the level of skill it would take to do that. He still thinks it's weird but he warms up to it.

Donnie does not at all get it but it makes his "brother" happy so it it what it is. And he will admit it is pretty cute.

Despite what everyone would have expected, Splinter doesn't make a big deal out of it. He just asks what the occasion is. Leo's new hobby doesn't get in the way of anything and it makes his "son" happy. He can also appriciate the time and effort of the craft. He'd probably be curious to know some of the techniques. Not for any purpose, just pure curiosity.

Casey would randomly walk into the lair one day and think Leo is some new sister of theirs. Which, technically he's not wrong. Leo is silently having a gender moment after Casey calls her a girl while Raph is laughing at Casey's confusion on the situation.

Casey doesn't know shit about makeup (me too fam) but he thinks it's badass that Leo is confidently wearing it. Screw toxic masculinity and all that shit. He goes on a random rant about his sister wanting to try makeup but thinking she's too young for that stuff (does she have a canon age? I imagine her being like 11). Leo tells him he should give his sister a chance to try it out, that it's just a fun activity and doesn't mean anything. Leo gives him like a whole lecture how makeup is about how it makes the person wearing it feel and not looking good for someone else. So Casey ends up deciding he's gonna give his sister some basic makeup stuff for her birthday (or Christmas, whichever comes first). Leo is satisfied.

Later that day Casey would ask Leo to help him decide what to give his sister and Leo is happy to help. What she doesn't expect though is for Casey to just straight up ask if she's trans. She panics. Casey panics at Leo's panic and splutters apologies for asking so suddenly, reassuring her that he's fully supportive if she is trans. So Leo comes out to him. And it feels nice. It's nice to have someone else know, to not carry it alone. Even though she was not at all prepared or ready to come out to anyone yet. She went to sleep feeling lighter that day.

I was actually just thinking about the fact that Donnie most likely hasn't mentally aged at all since he transfered his mind to Donbot. You can really like... see it when you watch the episodes, especially when you compare him to Raph. He acts young. Like all the years of living in a wasteland hasn't affected him at all. I understand it with Mikey but Donnie? I wonder if his consciousness is uncapable of properly processing things in his robotic form. Like his mind just takes everything as information but nothing deeper, if that makes sense.

But I never took it this (this meaning "Donnie is going to live way longer than his brothers") far and now I wanna cry. I am extremely curious on how that would play out. Technology becoming Donnie's worst nightmare is amazing. I wonder how often he would consider just skipping on charging himself, letting his battery die out. But would that even help? Would it actually kill him or would he just stay in a comatose state for the rest of eternity? Would he have to actually search for a way to die? What a curse to live with.

Something that I wanna write one day is the 12 series Mutant Apocalypse.

More specifically Donbot.

Such as how technology and machines which were once companions to Donnie, end up becoming his worst enemies. That because of technology and machines he's in a way stuck forever at the age of eighteen, never aging, never changing. And at first he's fine with it, and doesn't think too much about it until one day he looks at his brothers, like really looks at them and it hits him.

His brothers age.

He doesn't.

And before he can even blink he's suddenly all alone.

Doomed to wander the Oasis and Wastelands, unable to die, unable to live. Just forever frozen in time, immortal and never moving forward. Forever trapped in the same body. Until one day his body hopefully breaks down and even then it's not guaranteed if he'll get to where he wants to go.

Random Ava/Beatrice headcanon:

Ava grew up being forced to watch on TV whatever the nuns allowed her to watch at the orphanage, so we don't know what societal constructs she acquired when it comes to beauty standards. Obviously, we know she admires good physique (her internal monolog when thinking about JC proves that), but we don't know what her preferences are or what she truly admires.

So, my personal headcanon is that while she likes that built physique in men, she is more impressed with the way someone can use their body. Yes, she spent 2 months training with Beatrice, but can you imagine her line "[You have that look on your face] like you're about to aikido someone into submission" being about the countless times she simply enjoyed watching Beatrice train?

I love the idea of Ava admiring the way Bea moves, the way she flows from one stance to the other, the way she can use her opponent's size and strength against them.

Bea is beautiful in Ava's eyes, but she is beautiful in ways Ava can barely begin to express.

strange question i’m almost afraid to know the answer to… can you see when people add your books on goodreads? like do you know what shelves i have ABM on???

That's actually not possible anymore! Goodreads got redesigned and I think they took that feature away? As in, seeing what shelves your book is on. (I could be wrong, but if it still exists, I wouldn't know).

That said, I don't log into Goodreads at ALL. I'm fully logged off from there, so you don't need to stress about me seeing either your shelves, your account, or your review. I can't emphasize enough how much I'm not likely to see anything related to my book unless I'm tagged or DMd. I don't want to see and also I'm too busy to be keeping an eye on it.

Just want y'all to know I woke up and I'm still in love with Rafa

He's such a dumb slut.

Look at how he whorishly smoke that blunt.

Gold on his skintone is immaculate. No wonder he looked so good as Namor.

Lowkey if they had kept his curls in WF and had the beard I think I would have died.

I'm ruined for any man at this point. No one can compare.

It's too early to be as high as I am but I just needed to hit the vape tbh.

Rafa would be proud. .

Not sure what to actually say about them so feel free to ask questions if you're curious. I don't have a LOT lot on them but I have some lore.

I keep thinking about how when Zhang Qiling first met Wu Xie, he was suspicious, slow to trust, etc. (Yet still ultimately imprinted and followed him like a cranky cat for the next umpteen books of canon).

And then when he loses his memory, there's no suspicion or anything, it's full on just...oh this one is cute and nice to me I guess I'm his cat now.

And I feel like there's something in this (something heartbreaking about what a sweet boy Xiaoge must have been and how many times he must have been hurt before he closed himself off?) But I can't quite (something about Wu Xie being so honest in the ways that count, and so loyal and caring and guileless?) Put my finger (can't not mention Pangzi cause in truth they both imprint on Pangzi too and Xiaoge trusts him just as much) on what it is? But it might be Iron Triangle OT3. Maybe just a little.

i think there is a new special kind of hell for me (has to know the exact way a character's name is spelled) due to the horrors (the complications of kanji)

my mum has no idea who Andrey is but everytime she sees him somewhere she points at him and says: "That's the guy of the photo with the autograph in your room" and that's all she knows about Andrey
