katsuki, holding out the can of tuna: pspspsps izuku come home pspspsps

this is almost a year old but i put way more effort than i should have into a silly idea that came from a convo with my friend, and so now you must all see it haha

dekus vigilante arc was one of my favorites and i loved how much he looked like a sad wet cat so. here he is in all his glory

recently watched a handful of episodes of Supernatural and im kinda impressed with Dean's steadfast belief that all monsters are monsters and can't be redeemed.

With that in mind... there could be some VERY angsty Danny Phantom crossovers with that as the main premise

my boys 🥹💘

[scatterbrainedbot]

Hello :D

You're so cool

Anyway have you thought that in your rat sons au Splinter might outlive the boys?

You're very cool :D love your stuff dude

(tw for some blood, light gore, implied overdose (kinda??))

hi copper!!! this is a fantastic question!

so obviously typical irl rats have far shorter lifespans than the average irl tortoise. according to google (yes, be awed by my spectacularly in-depth wealth of research) the average pet rat lives between 2-4 years ish, and the oldest on record lived to be about 7. meanwhile, an African spurred tortoise (Splinter's species) averages more around a 50ish year lifespan in captivity, tho is suspected to possibly exceed 75 or more in the wild.

Now, the mutation does give us a lot of wiggle room for playing with these numbers. For the rat sons boys, id say their natural lifespan probably clocks in at about 45-55 years old? definitely not old by human standards, but not young young either. (though, its also important to note that the boys were exposed to the mutagen just days after being born.)

For Splinter, meanwhile, aging is slightly more complicated. He lived the vast majority of his life as a regular normal African spurred tortoise (well, non-mutated at least. there were perhaps some shenanigans of a more mystical variety going on before he was mutated, but thats a separate matter) He was about 70ish i think? when the boys were born and they were all exposed to the mutagen. so he is already distinctly an old man turtle papa. id guess he'd probably still have another eh lets say 25-30 years after his mutation. he could probably push it a little farther even with some mystic nonsense, but when push comes to shove id say his 'natural' post-mutation lifespan would put his death like a solid decade or two before his sons.

of course, the tricky part of the matter is that theres no way for Splinter to know any of this. theres no way for him to know how the mutation affected them all, or if it even affected them all in the same way. especially since the boys dont show many physical signs of mutation for the first few years, and just kinda look like normal rats, (albeit with a more human sort of intelligence) — what sort of health standard do you hold them to? what if they simply dont show external signs of sickness or old age anymore? how do you actually know if something is wrong?

for a while there Splinter is very worried that one of his babies will just essentially reach the end of their normal rat lifespan, fall and not get up again.

so mostly, he just tries to live in the moment, enjoying whatever time he does have with his little ones, taking each day as a gift <3

still,

that fear

never

really

goes

away.....

Drawing baby Bokushi in cute clothes because I can (part 9)

[Art related to my fic, Accidental Siblings.]

I was trying to get back into art after a long time away and forgot that I had this one unfinished for weeks. The lineart was completed a long time ago but I forgot to color it, so I decided to finish it today before moving on to anything else.

This one was a request from @douxheart810, who suggested I draw him in his iconic duck pajamas which made an appearance in chapter 4. Drawing this one activated my cuteness aggression for sure. He's so tiny and squishable. 🤭

If anyone wants to request an outfit for me to draw baby Bokushi in, feel free to send it to me in any way you wish, whether that be through a reblog, an ask, or a DM. (❁´◡`❁)

PHANNIES PLEASE HEAR MY CONFESSION

guys please pretend to care for one minute oke. I fucking love dnp tumblr. i love it here. But I have been hiding like a vampire in the nude cowering from the morning sun since, FEBRUARY 26TH.

Do yall remember what day that is? The day the lovely Dan Howell globally broadcasted his final performance of WE'RE ALL DOOMED! Yeah i fucking MISSED IT. i missed it. this beautiful collective phannie experience and i missed it. ALL BC OF MY STUPID GAY BS. Blew Dan off for my girl who aint even my girl.

AND THEN i missed every opportunity afterwards to watch it. There are at least 3 (three) 15+ min long videos on my phone of me sobbing and crying over this. I couldn't even bring myself to watch dnp for TWO. WEEKS. TWO WEEKS.

I got through it eventually. I guess. what can you ever do but make peace with the countless tragedies in this life.

In my shame I couldn't bare to return to phannie tumblr. ive been meaning to make this post for so long, even before!! I was saved!

I was saved O, I was saved! When our gracious Sister Daniel posted the performance on youtube [heart emoji <3]

So. its fine now! Hope at least one person got a notif that i posted for the first time in awhile. anyways nobody even cares but i had to let this out bc i miss it here thx guys!!! xx

How can you look me in the eyes and tell me you have not come far ？ Fall in love with who you’ll one day be, but please don’t fall so hard That you start to resent every second stuck in the present Absent and restless, unhappy and reckless . . . 

[chiarrara]

on one hand I'm kinda like....duh what are y'all so upset about, we been knew. but on the other hand...thinking about what it would take to pick yuri on ice back up again now that it's been officially put down, kinda makes my heart hurt. I don't know if there's ever going to be a path forward for this series that had so much potential left.

Mostly, I'm annoyed with the announcement. Really vague language about unspecified circumstances. I wish they would be straight with it because there are numerous reasons that could've contributed to the decision not to move forward. The prevalence of Russian skaters, the issues with and reorganization of the studio, the amount of time that's passed and the acquisition of more relevant projects. But I guess there's less to talk about and less blowback the less you say? Or maybe just not enough people care anymore.

I don't feel like we're missing anything with what we have exactly, so I've never been that cut up about the show not continuing. but no other piece of media has ever meant as much to me as yoi does. probably a lot of that is how much space is left in the story for more. I don't know, I don't feel like I should be upset but I'm feeling upset man. Just a little bit of silly grief for my favorite media of all time being unceremoniously cancelled....

after 5 years of radio silence tho so like, what did we expect. it's been over.
