#todd and leo. what do i even say

[thewandererh]

self love

do not tag this as a ship please

[somerandomdudelmao]

So, I recently reread CAS and watched the movie in the appropriate place, and something stood out to me.

There's just no way that time portal was a spur of the moment plan.

Leo already knew Mikey could make one, and there wasn't any debate at all about who to send where and when.

(Also, it's interesting to me that they sent Casey back to the day of, instead of say, a week earlier, but that's a different conversation.)

So, what I'm thinking is, after losing Donnie, then their base, then Raph, and with their constantly dwindling numbers and supplies, Leo and Mikey had to see the end coming.

There had to have been a discussion at some point- winning is flat out impossible, and 'not losing' is also looking pretty unlikely, so how do we prevent complete and total defeat? -and somehow they landed on 'let's send someone to the past and fuck the Krang before they even know the game is in play.'

And, out of everyone they could have sent, options which included Leo, who knew everything he would have needed to know to snag the Key before Warren Stone and Hypnopotamus, and fucking Todd, who the Past!Turtles already knew and trusted, and who also knew the lay of the land, they chose Casey, who knew nothing about anything and only managed to find April on a fluke-

-because it was never about stopping the Krang.

It was about keeping their son safe.

And I hope Casey gets to see that.

Ohhhhohohoho I think you are the first one I saw who pointed this out~

Yeas yes yeS YES this is gonna be interesting conversation hehe

would you read elizabeth taylors juno or groom persona chart? i feel like it would be interesting and her birth time was 2:30 am!

Elizabeth Taylor's Juno, Groom & Venus persona chart analysis

I feel like her marriage life is quite interesting from an outsiders perspective. The seven husbands or Evelyn Hugo was loosely based on her on the count of her 7 husbands. 7 divorces & one that was cut short by outside influences (a tragedy).

She was an outstanding individual who I myself have admired for being so influential in the old Hollywood scene. So in this post, I'll be doing a brief rundown on some of her placements in her Venus, Juno & Groom persona charts in that order.

Venus persona chart

Starting with her venus persona chart, I was curious about what it would say about her love life, and looking at it now I'm not surprised.

❀ 1st house stellium

She was the type to fall in love first and ask questions later. She has likely been surrounded by many admirers her whole life and evidently so. She falls in love quickly, and easily. Often finding her entranced by the charm and appeal of the opposite gender. All of her lovers have been the ones to pursue her first.

Ex: Late TV producer Mike Todd, her third husband was arguably her truest & deepest love. He had a clear intent to marry her the moment they met, and it wasn't a question when he proposed— it was a statement lol.

From abusive to passionate lovers, to even slightly problematic pairings that led to some controversy on her behalf. This placement is extremely common amongst people who have gone through many relationships in their lifetime.

❀ Pluto (19° libra) conjunct Juno (20° Scorpio) in Cancer 5th House

Some of her relationships were considered very taboo and have received much backlash from the public and those around her. She's been called a homewrecker for marrying a couple married men. She has also left a marriage to be with someone else, who was also married at the time of their romance.

Ex: Her 4th husband Eddie Fisher (her late husband's best friend) was married to her own friend Debbie Reynolds. He would leave Debbie to be with Elizabeth, although their romance was more of a 'condolence' partner while she was mourning Mike. Yikes

Juno Persona Chart

Onto her Juno Persona Chart, immediately face to face with an 8th house stellium lol.

If anything is an indication of multiple weddings, or marriages, it would be a gemini descendant in the jpc. In her case, it's especially so lol.

❀ Gemini DSC & Mars (°8 Scorpio) in the 7th house:

She has gone through many marriages, either ending in divorce or an abrupt ending (Scorpio energy). She moves on very quickly from her partners, but she falls in love quite deeply. Her close relationships & love life are always changing, always challenging.

❀ Mars trine saturn (°2 Taurus) retrograde in Aquarius:

Her flings can lead to marriage quickly, almost as if no thoughts were spared saying yes on a whim the moment her partner gets onto one knee. It's rebellious in a way that deflects all formalities people usually maintain before marriage i.e taking time lol. Feeling excitement, the love, the sparks, and just wanting to fully act on that.

❀ Venus (°3 gemini) retrograde in cancer 7th house:

That fast pace movement can sometimes prove to bite her in the butt when they realise that their relationship may lack a clear depth & understanding towards one another, a love that goes deeper than just fancy & adoration or lust. She may feel like there wasn't truly that deep of a mental or emotional connection somewhere down the line in their marriage.

❀ 8th house stellium, Cancer & Leo:

Her JPC Sun, Moon, Mercury & Jupiter are all here. As I've mentioned before, her marriage life has always been notorious throughout her career. Most people only remember her as the real life Evelyn Hugo, since it's always brought controversy & shock. Her love life is a large part of who she is & what she believes in. She's not shallow by any means, when she falls in love, she falls in love & she doesn't deny that. There is nothing she wouldn't do for love, or her lovers. Passionate & exhilarating. Life-changing & chaotic.

❀ Juno (°22 Capricorn) conjunct Jupiter (°22 Capricorn) in Leo 8th house:

Being known for her marriages, her husbands, it's almost seen as a part of her career or reputation in general. There's always this shock factor around her marriages. Aside from most of her husbands being older than her, they are quite influential in her industry too. Being able to get her into more prominent roles or meetings with the right people to advance her career.

Groom Persona Chart

She has a very prominent 2nd House stellium in her Groom Persona Chart.

❀ Capricorn (°capricorn) rising

All of her husbands were older than her.They were significantly older in fact. With Saturn & Mireille here, it's clear that she had a thing for powerful, mature & influential men. She also met a lot of them through work/friends (union 1st house, aquarius, Sagittarius degree).

❀ 2nd house stellium:

Her husbands were all rich, either through generational wealth or longtime hustlers. A lot of them treated her as a possession; someone they must have. Her husbands also all showered her with luxury. The more money they have the more extravagantly they'll treat her. The less it gets, the more rockier their relationship becomes. Perhaps they tend to use money as a way to control/manipulate her as well (groom 24° pisces 2nd house, mars °11 aquarius, 2nd house).

ex: In an article (from Today.com) it quotes "But as she grew more mature and became more confident, and his career began to fade, they had problems, Walker wrote. He added that while she was filming “Giant” in 1955, a gossip magazine claimed her husband had strippers visit their home."

❀ 6th house in Gemini & Populus (°26 taurus):

Her husbands were all famous for their work or work with famous figures. Having some sort of important/ active role in the industry they work in.

❀ Pluto ( °20 Scorpio) retrograde in Cancer 7th house:

Abrupt marriages, divorces & endings. I see it commonly when looking at the charts of people who married young & divorced somewhere in their mid 20s, 30s - early 40s. Their marriages are a whirlwind type of experience. Usually something very dramatic happens, which leads to divorce, but also divorce itself is a commonality.

❀ Jupiter (°13 aries) retrograde in Leo 7th house & Juno (°13 Aries):

Means she'll marry quite quickly/ without thought when she feels she has found someone worth marrying i.e she's fascinated with. She has married "young"/ early/ fast many times lol. She married her first husband right after finishing high school, & the rest of her husbands she married within a few months of knowing them.

❀ Briede (°24 pisces) in the 12th house:

A part of her may have felt rather undermined as a wife. Perhaps feeling like an accessory to her husbands rather than truly portraying the depths of her character. A part of her may also have felt like her marriage lives were something either she had not much control of or that she's always blinded by her emotions going into marriage.

[torturedblue]

Just got to the end of season 1 of Rise yet again, and this time it’s really given me some extra thoughts and perspective about Leo’s behavior in the movie…

So we know at first Leo is goofing around like he usually does after the Dark Armor spits Draxum out. Undoubtedly with a huge boost of confidence from just defeating their Big Bad season 1 villain by merely creating total chaos and throwing plans out the window. After all, “we be we” right? Which leads Splinter and Raph to yell at him a lot while he just constantly insists “they’ve got this”. Which, sure, but Leo baby you have to actually fight and get focused for that to be true 😂 But it keeps Splinter’s doubts up all the while they’re moving through the Battle Nexus arc, and Leo doesn’t really get Splinter’s approval for his while big plan until he proves he knew what he was talking about all along and the Nexus crowd is cheering them on

“They love ya, Pops!”

“It was all you my son!”

They spend scene after scene with Leo insisting they’ve got this while working his Face Man routine on the Spiderwoman up until he gets thrown in the “kraken’s den” with Rat Jitsu and it’s not until then after he says it was all part of his plan and Splinter again doubts him, that Leo’s had enough of his lack of faith and failure to really pay attention to his strategies enough to say “How come no one trusts me? None of you have any faith in me, why?” Which, ouch.

And it’s kind of the same when they get back to the rest of the team. We know Raph was very unhappy with Leo bouncing on them even though the plan was actually Splinter’s, and as soon as they get back he chews Leo out for leaving them high and dry. Thus Leo’s “when I said you guys got this I meant that” speech. Raph remarks about how accurate Leo’s guesses were about how things went when they were gone, and when Shredder shows up again Raph asks if Leo’s sure about this to which he replies yet again “Trust me.” And while it may be with a confident grin, after all the previous events of the episode it makes me sad to hear the way Leo asks for trust again.

(Which, I love my guy Raph, but after watching him also doubt Leo for the whole episode it does make it hard to believe when he finally says he does)

And I could go off on a whole other tangent about Bug Busters and how Leo saw everything that Big Mama did coming beforehand unlike his brothers—like altering the terms of the deal Raph made with her at the last second—which allowed him to expect exactly that in Many Unhappy Returns and outsmart her… but I don’t think I need to.

So even though Leo doesn’t see it as much with Raph, he really had to work to earn his Sensei’s and his leader’s trust as a reliable team member. Now to be fair, he did keep his plan on the DL from Splinter up until the end, which makes it a little more unbeatable, but I always felt like he did that because someone who worked for Big Mama was always around and blabbing about what he was going to do around any of them wouldn’t have been smart.

And interestingly enough, the only episodes Raph does use him to do his Face Man thing are after all this, in Todd Scouts and Pizza Puffs, but I don’t think Raph ever did that in season one. “Go in there and do what you do best: face!” This leads me to think it’s the season 1 finale events that showed Raph Leo’s people skills and cleverness really were more useful than he thought

Looking back on all of this it really makes clear now more than ever why Leo had such hesitation about accepting his promotion to leader and acting accordingly.

Because Leo’s proven to know his family a lot better than they know him… which is actually really saddening

Even if you set aside all the other aspects of Leo being used to getting to take it easy, or seeing how when things get really serious the pressure of leadership can really get to you, or how people can actually die, like in the season 2 finale. At the end of the day we know Leo’s insecurity comes a lot from thinking his brothers or family don’t believe in him, so even after being given the leader role, how is he supposed to believe in himself?

[imagionationstation]

I’m sharing this with you cause none of my friends like Tmnt and I wanna share this.

Two of my dumbest headcanons.

Both Raph and Donatello are HUGE musical theatre fans. Raph’s favorite is Heathers, Little Shop of Horrors or Sweeney Todd. Donatello’s favorite is Hadestown, Be More Chill or Nerdy Prudes Must Die.

I like to imagine Raph is huge on self-care and has a skin care routine that’s like…20 steps (maybe not that but it’s a lot lol) and when his brothers are having a hard time (ex. Donnie stays in his lab too much, and doesn’t take care of himself, Leo is feeling down maybe about Splinter etc etc) he forces them to do a self-care day with him.

idk I think these are silly lol

It’s so ironic that you’re commenting about having to share your stuff elsewhere because the people around you don’t get it because MAN I have had a night. Let’s just say that being the only person you know with an interest in something can be difficult.

I love dumb headcanons <3

My favorite part is how difficult they are for me because I am the poster board of every meme of everything needing to make sense:

If anything feels SLIGHTLY off in my headcanons, my brain makes stalling noises. BUT THESE AREN’T MINE.

So take that brain.

I enjoy a few musicals, but I haven’t heard of half of the ones that you listed, so I wouldn’t know for sure if it would be up their alley or not. It’s amusing to imagine them sitting in Donnie’s lab, trading musical preferences to see which ones match up. Their brothers will never heard the end of it when they do. 🤣

NAH WAIT. I can’t get the image out of my head of them tied up as Raph helps them “relax.” One of the few ways that he knows to say “I love you you need to take care of yourself” is by sharing what he enjoys, even if they don’t care. He will make them care.

THEY WILL BOND.

And the worst part is somehow it always works.

“Do you trust him?” Jim asked.

“Yes,” said Batman, unhesitating.

He didn’t know if he would ever like Red Hood. He didn’t know if he would ever be able to like working with him. He wanted to arrest the man. But if Batman trusted him, that would have to be enough for Jim.

“So,” Jim said, “are you one of Wayne’s new kids?” Because only siblings acted that way toward each other, and it seemed like every time Gotham turned around, Bruce Wayne was adopting more kids. It was a reasonable question.

“What?” Jay asked. “No, I’m—” He paused. Very slowly, his head tilted as he looked over Jim’s shoulder in the most obvious way he possibly could.

Finding a New Perspective by njw

“I got this, Hood.” Red Robin sounds annoyed as he arcs and twists through the air, kicking one henchman into another and wrenching the gun away from a third while simultaneously retracting his grappling line and then launching it to catch another unwary henchman. Just, how?

“I can see you do,” Red Hood says, and wait. Was his voice always that deep? Is he… Maya squints. Is he staring at Red Robin’s ass?

She blinks, then studies the line of sight more closely. Maybe he’s just checking out Red Robin’s kneecaps, in preparation for shooting at them? That seems more his style. Sexual attraction is kind of confusing and she still doesn’t totally believe Tosh that it’s actually as big a thing as people make it out to be—seriously, do other people really spend that much time thinking about it? Sounds fake but okay.

But no, Red Hood’s helmet is totally pointed at Red Robin’s ass. Huh. That’s new.

Afternoon Day 1

First | PREV | Next

--------------------------

💙

Leo was enjoying the switch to Meet and Greet, the fact that he was now just talking to fans, and some random people that spotted him while walking past.

His favorite thing to do is ask April to hand him something, and what happens is he opens a small portal just behind the curtain to pass things through, and he'll make a show of recieving and showing it off.

Though one time Cass just chucked a box of tea through the portal so it would hit him in the head. Many leaned around to find out where the stuff was actually going.

Though the small argument with a guy who was offended by Leo just existing for some reason was hit with, "Well I'm not the one arguing with and yelling at with a anthropomorphic Red Eared Slider on a Fancy TV. Now am I?"

Guy nearly punched the screen until April said 'If you break it, it'll cost you 4k to replace the hardware."

Well other then the occasional fan asking how he and Usagi were doing, some genuinely curious people asking about the VTurtles, and some odd photo requests, it was pretty calm.

Though there was one interesting conversation with a Med Student that go some people just watching a Humanoid Turtle and someone dressed as Jason Todd talk about obscure medical terminology.

❤

Raph was feeling awkward about taking over the Live Stream interviews, but at least he could dress up for it.

Many were kinda caught of guard by this tall dude dressed as an apocalypse survivor (think the Kraang Future Raph but human), with a robot turtle on his shoulder, asking if they want to be interviewed.

He got stopped multiple times for pictures, people wanting to compliment the costume, and he had to check on a few people who collided because they go distracted while walking.

Though he also stopped to take some pictures of different Cosplayers, especially the one person dressed as Red Angel.

Though he did have one interesting moment were he helped someone who got hurt, and helped carry them to a medical office. The person had randomly said 'Marry Me', only for Raph to awkwardly reply with, "I have a girlfriend, sorry."

There was a number of posts about this, with quite a few saying 'wish that were me!'

💜💙

Donnie sadly had to return to the booth to let April and Casey have a break. He regretted letting the Dragons have no obligation to help with the booth other than as tech support when he wasn't their.

Leo was having some fun bantering with Donnie when not chatting with people walking past. The urge to go into Disaster Twins was very tempting, because of how naturally they fell into it.

Though the reminder to call Donnie by a different nickname was a bit hard.

"Just call me Othello, Blue."

"Okay, Tello Tello~"

"O-Thell-O! Get it right you broken neon light!"

Other than that, running the booth solo even for a half hour was a bit tricky, though it was funny hearing people ask Blue what the prices for things were. The most popular things so far were prints, keychains, and plushies.

And according to a small survey done for future merch requests, people wanted to get whatever 'Voice Packs' were. Though the idea of making a mod that would switch out some voice acting with their own wouldn't be a bad idea.

🧡

Mikey was feeling exhausted, but still very happy.

So many people bought so many things from his booth, he had to list a couple of items out of stock for the day. And adding a note to bring the needed restock the next day. Especially loose paper, people really loved the quick sketch thing, and he ran out of paper pretty fast, and had to remove the option from the 'menu board' item lists.

Not to mention some of the pictures he's got (with permission of course) of so many amazing Cosplayers. He also had to make a note of possibility needing to grab another pack of business cards for his alt social. He didn't expect people to want even just the card.

Though it might be the fact he went out of his way to have multiple designs on them, so people were treating them like collectors items on their own... Maybe that should be a gimmick for the next time he does Artist Alley, a 'Golden Ticket' business card... or would that just lead to way more work than he needs.

Mikey took a quick look at his phone, and noticed that there was only an hour until the Halls Closed for the day.

Which thank Pizza Supreme, he was ready to get a quick bite, and sleep!

~▪~▪~▪~▪~▪~▪~

Once the closing of the Dealers Hall and Artist Alley were called, and the last people were ushered out. Then came packing up some small things that they didn't want to leave behind, and shutting off and securing the tech in the booth, before leaving themselves.

The booth teams, Raph, and the Dragons met up outside with Leo who went to grab some pizza and sides from a local place with good reviews. Not forgetting to grab the drones, wouldn't want to leave their robot children behind in that chaos.

They had their Dinner outside while going over how they were going to balance the next day, since someone would need to switch out with Mikey for his shift on M & G, because it would be unfair to leave CJ alone for hours.

They also looked into what was going on during the evening, for those who weren't quite tired yet, maybe a panel, movie or Karaoke room?

Either way they split up, with those who wanted to get to bed going back to the hotel, and the rest setting off to wander to event for a couple more hours before heading back to get some sleep.

They all remembered to queue up some posts to go up during the day tomorrow, just standard 'watching the Live of the con from work when I can', a reminder that Dee and Mandarin were doing meet and greets, maybe a 'Did I see some VTurtles Cosplay!?!' with screenshots from the live.

Meanwhile social media from the event itself was being pretty chaotic on it's own, with many people already putting together compilations of what was going on. And extensively reported on by various Social Media Reporters.

Though many have yet to face April in a battle of journalism just yet.

------------------

Masterpost

This ended up a bit short, but then again I kinda restricted myself on how I was going to write this out.

Mainly the 'I have given the characters an obligation, and they can't explore very much' thing.

Well, again I am open for criticism, and let me know what you think.

Things that would make Connor Detroit Become Human even cooler

Higher durability. In my reboot, the androids don’t look like actual humans, but this change could still work with the original design.

Make him tank bullets. Daniel tries to shoot him on the roof? He gets back up and sends the deviant into a hysterical rant about the humans and their new toys. The android he questions at the station shoots him in the head? He gets back up. Sends the poor guy into terrified screaming and yelling at the police about their “abomination”.

Connor already has different speech patterns than the other androids; he speaks with an edge of authority, not submissiveness. Even in a lot of his polite dialogue before befriending Hank. And if you choose to play cold or evil Connor, he can snark at humans in ways the other models can’t.

Kara has to say “I’m sorry Todd, it won’t happen again” when he curses at her for standing near the TV. Markus can’t really get mean even around Leo pre-deviancy. But Connor? Connor can dump Hank’s drink at the bar. Early in the game, when he’s not deviant. Hank is human.

And the things he can do or say to androids are terrifying. The interrogation is a prime example. Shooting the CEO’s android when asked, using damaged androids voices to find Jericho. Detroit could have used that.

Imagine Detroit become human deviants at the hideout, talking about the police monster android. Imagine he’s to them what the terminator is to humanity. Imagine Kara going out disguised as other androids, terrified that thing will be lurking around with the Police force. Imagine Alice going to confront him and the screams of horror and panic from her new deviant friends.

Yeah, you can play wholesome Connor… but the Androids won’t have that context. I want Detroit Become Rebooted Connor to be terrifying like the first and second Terminator. I want Kara on solo missions stressing over every minor mistake because he might be around. He might catch her, and where would that leave Alice?

I want this to be what the other playable characters feel when dealing with the RK800. Cheap, easily damaged androids with no weapons training. Using what little they’ve seen of human media and the deviant TRACI models’ experience. But there’s a police android with the programming to take down humans. It tanks bullets. It can talk like the human police and the owners they ran away from.

Meanwhile he goes to see Hank and it’s like:

“That burger is bad for your health.”

“Thanks, but I really don’t care, Connor.”

Also, imagine the police have been using the RK800 for a while before deviancy, so they actually know some way to take him down. Like, make Hank actually take him out in the park if you get the one of the endings where he shoots.

[aydaptic]

I find it weird how Todd is a child abuser, Zlatko experiments on androids and turns them into monstrosities, Perkins betrays and kills Markus but yet Gavin is considered the worst person because he *checks list* doesn't consider androids alive (like almost everyone else in the game at that point) and doesn't trust Connor.

Among those you mention, Gav is by far the most justified. Yet I wanna clear some things up here bc I'm not a hypocrite.

1.) Todd -- who doesn't think androids are alive -- is an android child abuser.

"You don't want anything, you're just a goddamn piece of plastic." - Todd Williams

It's still phcked up that he's abusing/can kill something that resembles a kid to the T, but it's important to make that distinction. We see no proof of him abusing a human child (...even though it can be theorized bc his wife took their kid and left.)

Abusing an android kid is just as bad as abusing a human kid -- we know this -- but Todd doesn't see it that way, so that describes/partly justifies his reasoning. There's no such thing as 'abusing' a machine and that's how Todd sees it.

A lot of ppl are also (wrongly) infantilizing Con, so I'm not surprised that they consider Gav's bad treatment of Con worse than Todd's bad treatment of Alice who is a literal kid. Seems like most of them don't even care about Alice/kids in the 1st place (...and that says everything you need to know about these POS'.)

Mistreating a kid (Alice) is way more abhorrent than mistreating a grown-ass adult (Con.) Alice is also passive while Con often instigates conflict. So Todd is way worse than Gav by that alone.

2.) Zlatko -- who is aware androids are alive -- thinks he's doing them a favor.

"Believe me, you’re better off being erased and feeling nothing… No more pain… No more hopes dashed… I almost envy you." - Zlatko Andronikov

He's the worst among those four, but this is again a scenario where you need to see the situation from his perspective. Yet he knows they're alive/capable of emotions and that makes him a million times worse than Gav.

3.) Perkins -- who is aware androids are alive -- is doing his job.

"That android… [North] You seem to really care about her… You don't want her to die, do you?" - Richard Perkins

...and if the lover status isn't there

"You could have what you've always dreamed of." - Richard Perkins

In Perkins' eyes, it's about national security. Androids have killed humans (Partners/Stormy Night/Broken -- even if Markus didn't actually kill Leo or Carl, that's what the public thinks -- Zlatko/Spare Parts/etc. too many chapters to mention,) destroyed public property (Capitol Park,) hijacked media (The Stratford Tower,) demonstrated illegally (Freedom March,) etc. Not to mention that androids are superior to humans in every way and nothing tells Perkins that they won't eventually get violent if taking the peaceful route.

Yet his knowing androids feel makes him (as Zlatko) a million times worse than Gav.

"'Could always try roughing it up a little. After all, it’s not human…" - Gavin Reed

Meaning Gav doesn't think they're alive (unlike Zlatko and Perkins.)

Gav isn't the only character I (partly) defend on shit like this. I just defend the others 'less' bc 1.) they're worse, and 2.) they don't get nearly as much undeserved vitriol as Gav does. Something that's legitimately insane bc, again, they're way worse by a longshot and I'll explain why down below.

Con stans (fandom majority) are thinking emotionally instead of logically

ppl hate/envy Gav bc he's a conventionally attractive white man (you don't see a lot of Todd, Perkins, Zlatko, Leo, and Allen fans even if there are a minuscule few bc they're not conventionally attractive)

Funny that we don't see a lot of hate for Amanda. An AI or not, she's the worst influence in Con's life with her emotional manipulation. Something way worse than physical abuse. I wonder why... (not really bc *cough* you apparently can't say anything bad about a black woman without being racist/misogynistic *cough*) Ofc there are some ppl that aren't afraid to speak up against her, but it's nothing compared to the shit Gav gets.

It's also why I'm not talking about North often bc the majority are (rightfully) defending her already. My voice isn't needed there. Every single person -- other than me, in my experience -- who defends Gav is being spinelessly backhanded about it.

Defending someone doesn't mean you agree with them or condone their actions. It's simply proof that one has the empathy/critical thinking skills to understand their point of view. Something lacking nowadays.

[our-happygirl500-fan]

So I was thinking about the fact that Hypno & Warren are part of the rebellion & more specifically the fact that they are part of Future Leo’s team.

The fate of a lot of Rise characters in the Krang apocalypse is left up in the air  but we do know the fates of quite a few of them.

We know that Mikey & Leo are the only turtles that make it to the start of the movie & Andy Suriano’s instagram & twitter posted concept art of future Hypno & Warren & April a bit after the movie came out & Todd was spotted in the films opening & the cut intro showed that Baxter, Draxum & Sunita also survived in the future as well

Baxter, Draxum, Todd, Hypno & Warren seem to have been part of Future Leo’s team while Sunita appears to be working directly with Future April.

The movie’s cut intro also briefly shows Big Mamma’s skull so we know that she didn’t survive the Krang apocalypse

But one thing that I think is interesting is that Baxter, Hypno & Warren would have all been the Turtles enemies when the Krang first invaded but are now working directly under Future Leo, I’ve seen a lot of people say that’s evidence of the characters putting aside old rivalries in the face of Krang & the end of the world & that’s probably true for Baxter especially since he would have still been a kid when the Krang invaded but Hypno & Warren being on Future Leo’s team is especially interesting when you consider the fact that Hypno & Warren were the ones who stole the key in the first place.

I see a lot of people have Future Leo feel guilty for the world ending & blaming himself (to the point of being antagonistic towards his past self in fics where Future Leo time travels) due to the fact that he lost the key to the Foot Clan but Hypno & Warren were the ones who stole the key for the Foot Clan, they even watched as the Foot Clan brought the Krang to earth

If Future Leo feels guilty for loosing the key, to the point of blaming himself for the end of the world, do you think Hypno & Warren feel guilty for stealing the key for the foot, for just watching as the Krang were summoned to earth?

Do you think Hypno & Warren joined the rebellion not just for survival but for atonement?

Future Leo’s team are made up of Hypno & Warren, Monty Moose (a character who was supposed to be introduced in season 2 but their episode got scrapped), Baxter, Draxum & Todd.

Other than Monty Moose who we don’t know much about most of the members of Leo’s team are either important allies of his family, or have a vital important to the rebellion. Draxum is Leo’s creator & helped his family defeat the Shredder, Todd has always been an ally to the turtles to the point where they hid out on Todd’s Puppy Rescue after the Shredder destroyed the lair. Baxter is probably vital to the resistance & is probably the most skilled in inventing weapons or up-keeping equipment after Donnie died & considering Future Leo uses a robot arm having an inventor like Baxter to help with repairs or maintenance is probably vital.

But what is Hypno & Warren’s place on Future Leo’s team, they aren’t long standing allies that helped Leo’s family against the Shredder like Draxum & Todd & they don’t have a specific needed skill like Baxter so why did Future Leo put them on his team. Do you think it was because he felt like Hypno & Warren were the only ones other than Future Leo who could understand him, who knew what it was like to blames themselves for the end of the world?

Fanfic Writer Ask Game!

🎯 🦈?

🎯 Do you have a writing milestone you’re working towards?

nope. I am at the whims of my inspiration and energy levels.

🦈 Which character is the toughest to write?

in ROTTMNT I would probably say Mikey. I think it's a little easy to lean too hard into the sort of "sweet little brother" thing that a lot of fandom likes (this isn't meant as a callout, lol, I like it too) and forget that he is canonically a little gremlin who is very silly and sometimes pretty gross (I mean he's a 13 to 15-year-old boy so it tracks).

Also he probably has the least defined character arc of literally every main character in the series (including the supporting cast like April, Splinter, Draxum, and both Caseys). Leo has his struggles with his place and identity within the team as well as his growth as a leader, Donnie has his issues with feeling replaced and directly linking his family "needing" him to his family loving him, Raph is struggling to live up to the expectations of the clan and his role as a big brother, April deals with her struggles connecting with her own peers and her fear that she doesn't count as part of the fam, Splinter has a billion things going on, Draxum has a whole redemption arc (truncated as it was) and Casey Sr effectively does too, and Casey Jr. has grief and trauma. And Mikey... would probably have had a really good character arc if we'd gotten the rest of season 2 and season 3!

A lot of Mikey's episodes where he gets to really get feelsy and show his emotions are directly tied to other people's character development, especially Donnie's and Draxum's, so we don't get as much of what his deal is. The only really solid Mikey centric episode is Hot Soup The Game, which definitely brings up Mikey's frustrations with being the youngest and thus babied as a result, so that's something you can draw on for his character, but even that's more tied directly into what he wants from interactions with other people and less about what he wants for himself.

(the truffle episode is super weird... like Mikey learns not to take his friends for granted? I guess?? I wouldn't have expected him to in the first place but yeah I guess that's some character development lol)

(actually as a total side note, it does annoy me a little that when Todd is first introduced as a character in Season 1, the whole point of his superpower being niceness was that he was so nice you'd do anything for him, and even villains were unable to turn him down, which was a really good gag and made him an interesting character. Then at some point it became that Todd's niceness meant he couldn't turn anyone down and suddenly he was just kind of a doormat, to Mikey first in the truffle episode and then all of them later in Todd Scouts. I actually like the Todd Scouts episode but also you didn't have to do that to him lmao)

(actually actually even though I like Todd Scouts I would have loved a version of that episode where Splinter stayed with them in the woods and then we dealt with how his feelings were hurt by the kids being more interested in their phones than his teaching and they could have pointed out that their dad kind of waited until late in life to start teaching them life skills and IDK WE DIDN'T GET THE FAMILY BONDING CAMPING TRIP WHEN THEY GOT CAUGHT IN THE TURTLE TANK IN SEASON 1, WHY DIDN'T WE GET IT IN SEASON 2??)

cough. anyway.

yeah so I always feel bad that when I look at my AUs and stuff I always feel like I give Mikey the least. I'm so sorry, Mikey, you're just already perfect and I don't know where to take you. ;;

Thanks for the ask!

[fishsticksloser]

Can I have a request that the rottmnt turtles s/o died with karai by the shredder and then came back as a ghost to reunited their boyfriend as they got their hamato ninpo they can defeat the shredder

Ghost of You

Raph x gn!reader

Warnings: death, injuries, angst, comfort, yo'kai/mutant!reader, this is pretty long...

A/N: I'm only doing one turtle because I wasn't really sure how to do the others without sounding redundant. Reader is either yo'kai or a mutant due to the fact that when they unlocked their ninpo, NYC was in the orb. I skip quite a bit of what happens, but this is still pretty long.

You had gone to the lair because you hadn't heard from your boyfriend all day. You hadn't seen him since the day before the Battle Nexus Big Mama held in New York.

"Raph?" You call, walking through the demolished lair. "Raphael!?"

Something explodes and you are buried under rubble. You can't move, even breathing hurts due to the dust.

"Gram Gram!" You hear Leo yell.

"No! The Hamato must live on!" Raph tells him. You wanted to yell for him. You were trapped, you needed him. You hear a lot of commotion before hearing someone yell about the Turtle Tank.

"For the boys." Draxum sighs.

"For our boys." Splinter corrects.

You hear fighting. Still trapped under the rock. Everything stopped soon after. You heard the Foot Clan play a video.

"I've got the Empyrean." Draxum grunts.

"Draxum! I cannot believe you are doing this you turned out..." Splinter groans.

"You knew this day was coming, rat." You could hear Draxum's evil smile. "He hates me. I hate him. It's kind of our thing and now I win."

"Where is the Empyrian?" Shredder asks.

"Down there in the Hidden City."

They left. You were still trapped. There was no sign of help. You didn't know how long you were there before you heard someone run in. You heard someone else moaning in pain.

"Guys, I'm coming!" You hear April call. Rubble starts moving somewhere nearby. "Karai!"

"Stop, we don't have much time..." Karai answers.

"No no. I gotta help you, take you to a hospital..."

"I will not be able to finish this journey. Now you must teach the family..."

"How can I? I'm not... I'm not one of you!"

"Oh my child... You have always been one of us..."

You see a bright green light and you felt power.

"April!" You cough. "April."

"Oh my god!" You feel rubble sliding off you. "Y/N! What... Does Raph know you're here?"

"April..." You gasp, you felt like you were drifting.

"No... Oh, please. Hang on!" You see tears slowly fall down April's face. "I'll get you to the Hidden City and we can get you some help, okay?"

April pulled you out of the rubble and helps you stand. You both limp out of the lair and you stumble. You start to fall, but April catches you and she lays you down.

"You're not going to make it, are you?" April sniffs. You shake your head, trying to get your final thoughts in order. She presses her forehead to yours. "I'm so sorry, y/n."

"It's not your fault." You breathe. "Please... Tell Raph..."

You couldn't finish, tears of your own falling. You couldn't think, couldn't speak. Still April nodded and held you.

"I'll tell him..." Her voice breaks as you finally drift away. "I'm so sorry, y/n... You deserve so much better."

˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆｡❤️ ｡⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗

"Guys! Guys guys guys guys guys!" April calls, running up to the turtles. They were in the woods with Todd.

"April?" Leo asks.

"Oh my gosh! You won't believe what happened." April tells them. "I went to the lair which is totally destroyed and found Karai and she turned into light and now I hear her voice inside my head!"

"Wanna say that one more time?" Donnie sighs.

"Karai. She did a Hamato glowy light thing and now I think she lives inside of me?" April repeats, the boys hug her.

"Gram Gram's alive?" Leo smiles.

"Gram gram, it's Mikey I miss you!" Mikey yells into April's ear.

"Gram gram would like you to let go and never do that again." April shoves Mikey away.

"Okay new plan. Gram gram tells April to tell us what to do. Please instruct us April Gram Gram sensei." Raph decides.

"She wants me to teach you the art of pinpo—" She hums.

"Ninpo." Donnie corrects. They continue to discuss the plan and what happened at the lair.

"Hey, Raph... Can I talk to you, privately?" April mumbles to him. Raph nods and they walk away from the group. "Something else happened at the lair..."

"What?" Raphael questions.

"Y/N was in the lair when it was demolished..." April begins, looking at the ground, tears starting to fall again. "They didn't make it... They wanted me to tell you um... They love you and they believe in you."

Raph didn't answer. He walked away, into the forrest.

"Is everything okay?" Mikey asks, they all watched Raph disappear.

"Y/N's dead..." April chokes. The other boys run after Raph. They find him sitting, back against a tree, crying. His brothers kneel next to him and wrap their arms around their eldest brother, tears also falling from their eyes.

"I'm so sorry, Raph..." Leo mutters.

˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆｡❤️ ｡⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗

Slowly, Raph leans backwards, falling to the cliff. "Anatawa Hitorijanai.". Realizing this, his brothers jump after him, screaming at the top of their lungs. "RAAAAAAAAAPHHHHHH!"

Their markings begin to glow in the gorgeous light and their Hamato sign appears on their chest. Their clothing becoming black as night. Their bandana tails grew.

"Saving like a Boss!"

Leo, Mikey, and Donnie form a hand, Raph grabs it hand, and joins in the transformation. They land in the water, where April was watching. The turtles have gotten their true selves back.

˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆｡❤️ ｡⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗

"Hey Shredhead! We heard you were looking for some Hamato energy. Guys?" Raphael grins, turning to Leo and Mikey.

"Oh I think I got some for him." Leo chuckles, his trowels transforming into katanas.

"That's right it's us and we've had a bit of an upgrade." April smiles.

"Big time!" Mikey cheers, his rope transforming into num-chuks, Donnie's hoe turns into a bo staff.

"And this time around...." Donnie smirks.

"We won't lose." Raph chuckles, his hand rakes becoming sais. A drill erupts from behind them, explosions flood the sky.

"My drill is out of beta!" Donnie yells.

"Donnie nice. Now put it in action." Raph laughs.

"I did. It's just for hero poses." Donnie answers.

"Respect!" Leo applauds, leaning over Raphael's shoulder.

The fight begins, the boys and April flying around Shredder. Cassandra watches Splinter wither away. She knew she had to save him and eventually she has a change of heart. Casey attacks Shredder. She shatters one of the chains, the boys run to help Splinter. They join their mystic powers.

"Oh no it is not enough. I have failed." Splinter frowns.

"No dad we can do this. You may not have taught us everything."

"But you did teach us the most important thing."

"Be there for each other."

"Remember what your mom said to you that day at the park. You are not alone!"

"My sons I..." Splinter sniffs.

"Yoshi…" A woman appears, floating in front of them.

"Mom? You're here." Splinter smiles sadly.

"I have always been here."

More Hamato ancestors appear, grabbing the shaft of the spear. "We all have."

Raph locks eyes with you. He smiles wistfully, tears threatening to spill. The others see you too, all of them smile softly.

"Hot…" Yoshi's mom began.

"SOUUUUUUUUP!!!!!!" Everyone calls. The spear shatters the armour. Shredder is destroyed once and for all and Oroku Saki returns. Karai leaves April's body and hugs her father for the first time in 500 years.

"My daughter…" He breaths.

"Thank you my young Hamatos. We will always be with you." Karai tells the turtles.

Karai, her father and all of the ancestors bow to the Turtles and their family. With this, all the Hamato spirits fade away into the night. You stay. Raph rushes forward and hugs you.

"I'm sorry..." He sobs, pulling away to look at you. You hold his face in your hands. "I should've been there for you."

"I will always be with you, Raph..." You tell him, he leans into your touch. "I'll always love you."

Time Is All We Have

A Doctor Who x Rise of the TMNT Xover interest check/story prologue because i'm losing all control of my life lmao

Quick mini-primer for where in both timelines we are:

Non-teetle fixaters, you can just watch the first few minutes of the Rise movie. Bad future timeline shenanigans wahoo! You should probably also get a feel for the regular present timeline from the show if you can, though we won't be directly interacting with it for a quite a bit. Because Reasons. :)

Non-Who fixaters, we're rolling with David Tennant Doctor The First and the companion named Martha Jones. The name similarity to the Casey Joneses makes me giggle, especially now that I've watched through the (REDACTED) episodes where she ends up with some more Caseys parallels. Those haven't happened yet for her though lmao. Frankly, she's only had a few episodes'-worth of adventures with the Doctor by this point. :)

anyway. shoutout to my brother purpletango for having this idea. i believe what i hurriedly jotted down in my notepad app went like this:

the rise movie begins, mikey gets ready to send junior back in time- -and something goes wrong. welp, the gateway's there now. may as well use it. junior gets yeeted through (and my brain is now adding the idea of leo realizing something's up and going with him) and junior (and maybe leo) land…in the TARDIS. now they gotta get back to earth (hoping they're at least in the right dimension) to find the key and stop the krang. NO PRESSURE LMFAO

with a lil tweaking to the premise that just sorta happened as i was writing, i'm now at 26k words of combined fic and notes. it has been 2.5 weeks. i am nowhere near done. help lmao

gonna be doing something a bit funky with the tardis here just to get the ball rolling. idk if it's a canon thing that can happen but if it's not then shshshshshshsh just pretend with me. take my hand

〜

Almost exactly twelve hours prior to the moment he died, when the rest of what remained of the Resistance had been asleep and it had only been the turtles awake to keep watch, Michelangelo had looked to his big brother and said, "We can't beat them, can we?"

Last night, Leonardo had swallowed and given a slight shake of his head. "We can't."

"They've even stolen the night sky from us somehow," Michelangelo had said, lifting his gaze to the cloudless, crimson sky. "Look, there's no stars anymore."

"When did that happen?" Leonardo had asked under his breath. "We still had at least a handful last I checked…"

"Sometime since the last time we had enough peace and quiet at night to actually look up. I'd say…in the past few weeks?" Michelangelo had suggested.

There had been silence for a long moment after that, broken only by the quiet, deep breathing of the few who were left, as well as the shifting of Michelangelo's cloak as he scooted a bit closer to his brother.

Between the two of them, Leonardo and Michelangelo had enough organic fingers and toes to count everyone else who'd survived the past twenty-odd years. Then again, with only two toes on each foot, three fingers on each hand, and three organic hands left to use…well. Less than twenty wasn't exactly an army.

Casey had shifted in his sleep, eventually, mumbling something incoherent the way his mother always had.

Leonardo had swallowed.

Michelangelo had pulled his gaze back down to Earth and looked at him.

"The Krang won't give us the mercy of dying," Leonardo had said grimly. "Not if they can help it."

"They won't," Michelangelo had agreed.

"The others chose to fight with us. Humans, yokai, and mutants. Even Todd. Never would've expected him of all yokai to be so kickass, back in the day. But…this is all Casey's ever known," Leonardo had continued.

"It is."

There had been a shifting in the shadows off in the distance, then, and while it had turned out to be easily taken care of, it had still put a pause on the brothers' conversation for a bit.

When they'd gotten back, but before they'd woken the others and gotten moving again, Leonardo had nailed Michelangelo with a solemn look. "We can't avoid this forever, but Casey…"

"I know you're not talking about that thing we talked about never talking about," Michelangelo had said, raising the ridges of his brows for a deadpan look and a wry smile.

Leonardo had jabbed an elbow into his plastron with a thick snicker…but he hadn't denied it.

Michelangelo had sobered up, then. "Oh."

"Do you think you can do it?" Leonardo had asked as he'd knelt to shake April awake, pausing before he did to meet Michelangelo's eyes.

"I know I can," Michelangelo had said, remaining quiet about how 'it' would very likely be the end of him.

They'd both already known as much.

"When?"

"I-I don't know. When things look bleakest," Leonardo had tried. "If it comes down to us. If it's just you and somebody else. If…if it's just you."

Michelangelo had nodded, then put a hand on his brother's carapace. "The Krang'll get front-row seats to Earth's very own home-grown sun. And that's a Doctor Delicate Touch guarantee."

"Wouldn't expect anything less, little man," Leonardo had chuckled. "Give 'em a light show that'll have 'em running scared."

"I can fly, Leo. And 'little man' was always Raph's thing," Michelangelo had snickered, reaching down to wake Casey. "Hey, Casey, we gotta get moving. Mind waking up and reminding your sensei that I win all height contests forever, no take-backs?"

The noise had begun rousing the others, and Leonardo had scoffed. "Turning my own student against me, Mikey? Low blow."

"Nah," April had said from where she lay. "This is a low blow."

She had snapped an arm out to smack Leonardo's shin, and the rest of the survivors had woken to quiet laughter.

It had been nice.

The last moment of calm within the storm.

In the present, Michelangelo winced as the mystic energies swirling through him reached a crescendo, but still pushed further, digging his fingers into the fabric of reality and wrenching it apart.

With Leonardo wounded, everyone else outnumbered, and Krang closing in on all sides, it was definitely pretty bleak.

There was no better time to make a time gateway than when there was no time left, after all.

His heart pounded in his tympana, loudly enough he almost could have sworn it echoed, a thud-thud-thud-thud that wanted to shake him to the core.

For a moment, with the Krang bearing down on him, his brother, and his nephew, it felt like he was losing his grip.

Casey's voice managed to overpower the thud-thud-thud-thud: "Master Michelangelo, no! You're gonna-!"

He knew.

How could he not, with light cracking his skin and his scales into little flakes of dust on the wind?

But Casey…he was the future.

The best of all of them.

As long as Casey would be okay, Michelangelo could do anything. Would do anything.

He turned his head back over his shoulder for one last look.

Casey looked horrified.

Leonardo looked resigned.

There was no one else left.

(He didn't want to go.)

Michelangelo smiled and gave his family a cheeky little wink, then turned his attention to the time gateway in front of him, threw his arms out to his sides with one last heave-!

-and like Earth's very own home-grown supernova, like the very last star in the universe, he imploded into golden light.

〜

Leonardo felt himself shatter inside as Mikey disintegrated and the time gate stabilized, but the Krang were still closing in.

"Casey, when you're done saving the world, do me a favor," he said, putting a hand on the kid's shoulder.

Casey looked up at him with wide eyes. "Sensei, don't-!"

Leonardo just smiled sadly and shifted his grip from comforting to more of a ready to throw.

He ignored the fire in his side and the trickle of blood down his plastron as he hurled Casey into the gateway. "Grab a slice-!"

"NO!"

Casey's scream was the only warning Leonardo had before the wrist-strapped grapple (standard issue, at least before Donnie had gone out with a bang) streaked back out of the portal, latched onto Leonardo's good shoulder, and yanked him off his feet.

"Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoa-!"

The deafening thrum of a Krang laser and a flash of heat at his back told Leonardo exactly how he should have died, but the sensations vanished just as quickly as they'd appeared, leaving only the golden light of Michelangelo's ninpo and the silhouette a few yards away that told Leonardo where Casey was.

Leo almost let himself go limp in the rushing mass of energy as it faded from golden-orange to something more bluish-gray.

Almost.

Instead, however, he grit his teeth against the way his wound flared up and started swimming for Casey.

The light around them grew brighter with no signs of stopping.

By the time Leo reached the kid, he had to screw his eyes shut to avoid going blind.

He managed to grab Casey's hand, then wrap himself protectively around him-

-and then some kind of metal grating slammed against his carapace, his head snapped back, and he knew only darkness.

〜

The Doctor blinked at the sudden sound of beeping. "Oh? That doesn't sound right."

"Doctor? What is it?" asked Martha.

"I'm getting an alert," said he, darting over to one of the TARDIS' monitors for a look. "An alert that there's a lifeform catapulting through the timestream almost completely unprotected- two! Two lifeforms!"

Martha blinked. "What? How did that happen?"

"I don't know, but if we want to find out, we'd best get them onboard before whatever shielding they do have is eroded away." The Doctor studied the monitor for a moment more, then slid around the console and started throwing the appropriate levers and flicking the appropriate switches. "I need to focus on getting close- would you mind peeking out the doors to make sure my aim isn't off?"

"On it!"

The Doctor grinned, then turned his focus back to steering. "Aaalright then! They ought to be coming up just ahead, maybe a smidge to our left-!"

"I see them!" Martha called. "One of them- one looks human!"

The Doctor blinked, then looked up. "Only the one?"

Martha nodded, not tearing her eyes from the window. "The other looks almost like a turtle! Except, well, it's person-sized!"

"Curiouser and curiouser," the Doctor mused. Then, looking back down at the console, "Well, I think the simplest course of action would be to just…scoop them up!"

Martha glanced his way in confusion. "What, just open the door and grab 'em?"

"Exactly. You'll want to be quick and precise," the Doctor recommended. "Good to know we're on the same page."

After a moment to process what he'd said, Martha nodded slowly. "…right."

The Doctor carefully piloted the TARDIS close, and as he watched the energy readings of the two lifeforms get close enough, he heard Martha open the door, then yelp in surprise as something hard hit the metal flooring with a clang.

"Sensei?!" squawked the thick and emotional voice of a pubescent human boy.

"Oh, my," said the Doctor, skirting the edge of the console as he jogged over for a look.

Immediately, he could tell that whatever the circumstances were that had led to the two strangers being catapulted into the timestream, they had not been pretty. Between the apocalyptic fashion and weaponry, the fact that the turtle had seemingly been curled around the boy until losing consciousness, and the sight of tear tracks on the boy's face…well, a billboard would have been less obvious.

The boy glanced between the Doctor and Martha, wide eyes quickly shifting into suspicion as he slid off "Sensei's" plastron and placed himself between the turtle and the Doctor. "Who are you? What do you want with us? Are you with the Krang?"

Huh. He sounded American.

"Krang?" asked Martha, turning to him. "Doctor, what's a Krang?"

The Doctor frowned, mulling the word over. "Krang? Krang, Krang, KrangKrangKrang… Can't say I recognize the name. Bit of a shocker, really, and somewhat worrisome."

The boy's face spasmed, confusion clearly welling up, but the door chose to remind them all that it was still open by letting a tannish cloak drift through and land next to the two newcomers.

The sight of the cloak made the boy's eyes moisten further.

Oh, dear.

"Martha, could you get the door?" asked the Doctor, shifting his voice into something a little softer as he knelt next to the two strangers.

"Oh, uh- you got it."

As Martha did exactly that, the Doctor met the boy's eyes. "I'm the Doctor. Behind you is Martha, and this is the TARDIS. I don't know what it is you're running from, whatever this 'Krang' business is, but I promise you, you're safe here."

The boy's suspicion slowly lessened, the tension in his shoulders loosening some- though, notably, nowhere near completely. "And…what's a tardis?"

"My spaceship," said the Doctor modestly. "'S how I get around. What I want to know is, how did a humanoid teenager and a turtleman with a robotic arm end up hurtling through the timestream all on their lonesome?"

At that, the boy's gaze flickered to the cloak on the ground, and his jaw hardened in that way jaws tended to do when the only other option was to sob.

"…I see," said the Doctor quietly. "While I'd like to know the specifics, pushing this sort of thing never really seems to work out well. So I won't."

"You-" The boy's voice cracked, and he tried again. "You said you were a doctor?"

"The Doctor," corrected he.

"Though I've been training as one for quite some time, myself!" Martha reminded.

The boy visibly warred with himself for a moment, then grit his teeth and pulled slightly away from the turtle's side, revealing a nasty gash that had gone clean through his shell. "Help him. Please."

Martha gasped. "Oh, God-!"

The Doctor's eyes flew wide, but then he nodded firmly. "We'll do everything we can."

"Ugh whats the point of living then" Mikey said dramatically as I see Donnie and Raph hug Mikey frowning and shaking there head and all I see Leo do is do a big frown shaking his head as well as a creaking noise is heard

"THAT IS IT WE ARE GOING TO THE WOODS!!!!"

Splinter yelled "the what" "excuse me...?" Me and Donnie ask confused

THE WOODS

I heard splinters sigh "you hear that that is the sound of no phones" until everyone was typing on the phone I was texting Leo even tho he was next to me until splinter out of nowhere grabs our phones "give me that!" When he hade them in his hands Leo made a portal and grab the phones as we continued to do our things with our phones

until he grabbed any technology he saw and grabbed our weapons and got in the turtle tank and popped his head out “YOU WILL COME BACK BETTER NINJAS OR NOT AT ALL!!!” As splinter drove off “he’ll be back…right” I look at Raph and see his concerned face as I Pat his shoulder “ya he will…right Leo…?” I looked at Leo with a bit of concern

“ya ya ya he’s going to turn around right…he’s gone” I see Leo’s smirk disappear as soon as splinter left “I NEED MY PHONE AND MY PHONE NEEDS ME WE CANT SURVIVE IN THE WOODS ALONE!!!” I heard Donnie whining as he cups his face until “that’s why I’m here” we turn around to see “hey guys” “Todd?!” We were all surprised “how did you get here?” It was Todd’s turn to be confused “we drove up together…in your tank like ten minutes ago”

FLASH BACK

Everyone was typing on there phone in the tank (ofc Kyle and Leo are texting each other even tho they are sitting down next to each other) “we’re going to Lear knot tying, berry picking , sun blocking, anddd learning to be best friends”

END OF FLASHBACK

“You don’t remember this!?” We all shook our heads saying no and Donnie was going crazy cause he didn’t have his phone as I put my hand on his shoulder mouthing “it’s okay” and I smile softly “WELCOME TO TODDS SCOUTS WHERE FUN MEANS SURVIVAL SKILLS!” Todd said with joy

“I don’t think I’m going to make it…” I felt bad for Donnie and then I heard Leo speak “guys if we run we can still catch splinter” Leo,Mikey and Donnie went running but me and Raph stayed behind staring at them until then end up being trapped as they hand on a tree “that is a triple x merino knot trap a tight trap is how you make two ropes into friends” as Tod bites down on the rope letting them drop down to the floor

“Now let’s get learning!” Todd says

SURVIVAL LESSON 1 FOOD:

“We have non so what would you eat?” Tod asked us Raph picked up a rock and opened his mouth “wrong” Donnie picked up a stick with a frown “wrong” Leo grabbed Donnie’s head and opened his mouth “wrong you’re terrible” I just picked up bugs as i open my mouth “wrong” Mikey went to a tree with berrys with open mouth “STOP NEVER EAT THOSE YOU HEAR ME THISE ARE NO NO BERRYS!!!!” I see todd scream at Mikey until he went to his nice self “don’t forget hehe” patting Mikey’s head

SURVIVAL LESSON 2 SHELTER:

“When looking for the perfect shelter make sure it has protection from the elements of and a water source for drinking” I see Todd put his head in the lake water as he got back on the light reflected at his long, beautiful blonde hair with a fish in his mouth I was mesmerized “who’s hungry?” He said sounding a bit muffled

SURVIVAL LESSON 3 FIRE: “Nature stove” he says as he sets the dish in the stick in the fire I was sitting on raphs shoulder cause my legs were hurting and he was helpful enough to carry me

SURVIVAL LESSON 4 :

“WHERE AM I!?!?!? Is what you might say if you’re last a Todd scout always navigates by the sun” I hear Leo groan “how is he going to teach us how to survive boredom…” and I just shrug my shoulders and we hear something behind us “psss up here I got something to show you but you have got to ditch Todd” I shake my head as Raph held onto me in his shoulder “we can’t once he gets through this boring stuff he’s bound to get to the good stuff”

I nod my head “now you guys are in for a treat!” I hear Tod say and me and Raph smile “see” me and Raph say at the same time “animal call!” I hear Todd make animal noises and our smile disappear “that’s domesticated I fooled you guys alright” as he kept on making animal noises me and Raph look up at Donnie “we’re in” I look down at Leo and smile “Leo?”

Leo smirks “on it” he said walking over to Todd “Todd buddy hey you’ve been working out listen we’re ready to take it up a notch how about we show you what we can do…alone”

“Fantastic go be a Todd” he said putting a hand on Leo’s shoulder as a tear drops down Todd’s face I smile nervously as Leo gives us a thumbs up

we walked down the woods (not Kyle she’s being a lazy ass) “i couldn’t take it anymore being away from the world technology my sweet sweet phone” Donnie runs up to something

“so I built the old Donnie town!” Throwing the cloth showing a tree house as we got in “also known as Donnie Napolis , donnie estate park , Donnie estand , Donnie Donald , Donnie Stanton Noble , I still haven’t landed on one..” as he pulled the switch turning the lights on and the fan

Raph sets me down and leo and Donnie sit on the chairs “now this is camping” I see them relax and I see mikey get on the hot tub “Todd scouts not for us” I nod my head “agreed” “boredom survival tip number 1 ditch todd” we hear a gasp “Todd we-“ Todd cut me off “you ditched me what even is this place well I guess you guys have a pass survival to betrayal” “ “it’s not what it looks like” Mikey says a bit sad and I felt bad

“now you’re probably to cool for my Todd scouts unlimited especial and it’s made with extra…LoVEeEeEeeEeE” I hear him say as I see the heart lemon break (he was carrying a tray with lemonade) he cried as he spun the tray and left until he came back fixing the tray putting it down in the floor

“Sorry I got caught up from this!” As he left crying jumping down from the balcony and looked like he was hurt but kept on running away and I heard Raph groan “man we really beefed this one we should go apologize” we stand up and I held onto Leo’s arm “all we have to do is explain that it’s not Todd we don’t like…it’s just EVERYTHING HE STANDS FOR!!!” Leo said very loudly as we hear a yell for help

and see Todd being captured “hey what do you think those guys are doing to Todd?” I look at Leo and give him a really face “no he’s been toddnapped!” I see Mikey yell “how are we supposed to find him if we don’t know where we are where’s my phone…” I look at Raph “they probably took him somewhere like a-“ he cuts me off “campsite wherever that is” I nod my head

“I mean it’s got to be near water because less than two shelters should be near water that’s it there at the river WHAT IS HAPPENING YOU HEAR THAT I ACTUALLY LEARNED SOMETHING” I clap my hands chuckling “hey look at us we don’t need phones for this one specific mission but in general and I can not make this clear enough I need my phone”

Raph puts us around his arms “Hey let’s use everything Todd taught us and go save him” and I smile and nod my head as we all put the Todd scouts uniform as we all say “Todd scouts” as raphs shirt rips for how big he is (but fat shaming) “alright let’s roll” Donnie walked in front of his tree house as I look where he’s looking at “shut it down boys” i didn’t know what those things say but the building goes down

(time skip)

we we’re on top of the trees as one of the two doctors get caught in our rope trap and are hanging on the tree “two down three to go Mikey how’s part two going” Mikey looks at us upside down “it’s ready” I smirk “watch and see why that are called no no berrys” Mikey put the berrys in a straw blowing them as the berrys go inside of the dentists mouth as they run off to the restroom

“Time to get Todd,scouts on me” we all nod at raphs orders as we sneak in “Todd are you okay oh Todd you look terrible” I heard Leo say with concern “no im fine just-just go leave me!” Donnie popped in “Todd I’m really sorry my brothers said those terrible things about you and again it was just them not me” me and Leo push him away “not helping Dee” “why don’t we leave the apologies to the pro” i look at Leo “Todd you’re our friend we shouldn’t have been such jerks to you we’re really really-“ Todd hugs him “apology accepted! wow you are good at that” Leo was stumbling as I helped him out

as a car came crashing in making us crash into the wall “tooth fairy get me that Squatch!” (time skip I’m just to tired to finished this so I’m skipping because it’s 1 in the morning)

We see Todd on a deer and he fainted but Raph caught him “gotcha!” He smiled “thx well sure you guys want to get back to your phones you don’t have to pretend to be Todd scouts anymore” I laugh “pretend who’s pretending?” I heard Donnie say as we hug Todd “we love you Todd” I say “ya I wanna learn how to cut rope with my teeth”.

(HI I hoped you enjoyed the story I’m tired as f#ck so I’m going to sleep im doing this for you guys so I will keep on posting got on the wrong foot Leo x OC and requests are open so don’t be afraid to ask and I didn’t get inspired by any songs so now I’m nocking the f#ck out so have a nice day or night god bless you beautiful people)

DAY 29: Caleb's Autumn Clothes 😺🏀🏈

• An OC that was inspired by Carmen's real-life brother sibling is 'Caleb Ramcat'. 😺🏀🏈 An Anthro fox-cat hybrid critter who loves playing basketball (and other related sport stuff). 👓 Not to mentioned, that he's playing any kind of Game consoles as much as their Ramcat siblings. 😊🎮 That's all about to say to him, but what his Autumn Clothing? ⚫🔴🤔 Just like I said on Shadow R.'s A/W Clothing, there's nothing much special about his Autumn Clothing. Sure it fits his personality, but it is anything but... No offense, Caleb. 😥 Again, I'm not throw any hateful words 🚫 because he's my 'Best Friend'. 🫂 Nevertheless, on the plus side, I think Caleb is enjoying himself playing basketball while he's wearing comfy baggy clothing. 🌸👕🧣🧤👖🥰 And did you know, that 'Fabric Softener w/ Expanded Formula' possessed a sweat proof? Yup, drops of sweaty drops converted into concentrated beautiful scent! Even a strong fowl order can converted too thanks with that special FabCom, trust me! 😉

Well, that's all for now. More daily "Baggy Cloth-Ober" artworks to come, until the end (of October)!😊

Eyyy Happy birthday to me <3

Let's pretend that you share birthday with me if it's not your bday today

if you do share it with me, then happy birthday to you too!<33

This is a small birthday special...blurb? Idk

All the gifs were made by @hitechlatte

..............

Raph

Probably was preparing for it for a whole 2 weeks

He got you a gift card, a gift (I think he tried cooking for you but failed and endned up buying you a teddy bear), your fave flowers and of course - Himself.

By that I mean he literally follows you around doing anything with you.

You two probably went to park (or Todd if you like animals/puppies) and lost the track of time. He didn't really let you walk btw

it's your day, whether you celebrate it or not, he's here to make it better <3

It's your special day after all

Leo

I feel like he had a whole plan for the day since first knowing when your bday was.

I think he didn't really sleep

He made Mikey cook, bought you something cool and weird, probably made something himself! Portales you somewhere nowhere, had adventure with you, congratulated you two surviving it, dedicated a whole poem for you and ofcourse- Pizza

He made you a pizza, giant one

Probably made your favorite or just mashed whatever you like to eat together even though it may not go together well

Anything else, like cake - made by Mikey

You too had a crazy day

If you prefer quiet peaceful days, then you two watched shows/played whatever you like to play/ doing your hobby, eating your favorite food, and just enjoyed each other's company.

Basically his gift to you was this amazing memory of this day ☆

Donnie

Same as Leo-

Made you a robot similar to Shelldon, now you have two have 2 kids

Ordered your favorite food

You two played video games! And watched some cool or awful sows to diss on them and laugh at how bad it is.

I also think he asked you what you want and bough you it?

Two words: Lazer tag (?)

You know, like the one where April met Sunita. I think it's called Lazer tag, if not then sorry :")

He wore his purple Hoodia and went playing

You won.

You spent a lot of time together, just chatting and making yourself superior lmao

Best birthday ever lmao (I like winning-)

Mikey

My goodness, he probably is the best when it comes to birthdays-

He cooks all, and I mean ALL your favorite dishes/foods

It doesn't matter that don't go together, you like it? That's all that matters

You can eat ice cream and cake and then pizza and then goulash and etc lmao

You probably visited your favorite places, did your hobbies together (if you're an artist too, you were both doing whatever art you're in for! Or all-)

He probably made you a painting-

I hc that he has a camera memory so he could draw you without you being nearby

That's his gift

One of them-

He probably also made you the "love you like a candy note"

Uhh idk how it's called, but I call it that way-

Basically a journal that compliments you and has a candy attached to you

"You're my only choice, unlike twix" "You don't need snickers to be yourself" "Let's get these bounties done" (yes genshin since it's my birthday and it doesn't matter that I play it rarely)

Probably even sang your fave songs along with you (or himself if you don't like singing)

You two definitely had a slumber party

Fairy Lights, Throw Pillows, Matching Robes, Snacks, Drinks, you name it

You drew on his shell

Fondue: Warm chocolate, fresh strawberries, and soft marshmallows

You can't tell me he won't/can't do that

Sorry if it's a bit ooc

Yet again, happy birthday to me and those who share it with me!

I wish us an amazing day, whether you celebrate it or not. Make a wish, just do it even without the cake

It should work because of the "birthday magic"

Never worked for me, but I like to say it does? It works on any other day for some reason

I am sending you a virtual hug

Here, have some love, 'cuz you're epic ✨️🩵❤🧡💜
