Save Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Tumblr Posts
*slams hand down on the repost bottom with a wild gleam in my eye* I will reblog healthy hard conversations till the day I die and YOU CANT STOP ME







Ep. 2. "The calm before the storm" Previous episode Masterpost So, here is the starting point... Raph got angry at first… But Leo drove himself as hard as he could, so even moralizing was not needed here



Anyone gonna mention that here thanks to the beautiful (aNd InCreDibLy PaInFuL) work of @somerandomdudelmao that we see THE Donnie, who is known to be touch adverse most of the time, is so scared, hurt, frustrated, lonely (what other Donnified adjective that fits) is not only actively ReAcHiNg, but using whatever little strength he has to get to Casey, to HOLD him as fast as he can.
Anyone? Or is that just me?

Oh my gosh why do y'all have to make him so pretty and epic like 🤯🤩
THIS IS ART AND YOU SHALL BEHOLD IT!

Woaoaoaoa Sword Peepaw 🗡️🐢
Grayscale version!

Y’all….I’m legit sobbing right now. I’m just casually reading this on my deck outside and this post hit me so hard that I dropped my phone and started crying.
THIS is the entire message of TMNT in a nutshell. This is why I FRIGGIN adore this show, this fandom. They’re brothers your honor. Brothers.
We all have our unique gifts, but at the end of the day we’re not alone. We have all have family, whether blood or by choice. We’re NEVER alone.

Thank you @somerandomdudelmao for showing this and doing so in a way that is heartbreakingly beautiful. I’ve never been so shook by someone’s art and story in a way that this has shattered me (in the best possible way)










Part 12!
Okay. A little insight. I originally wanted to do two separate episodes for Leo and Mikey.
And at the end of his episode, Leo would die alone in the middle of the wasteland. Dramatic, angsty, all that yeah
But then I thought about it many, many more times. Leo was essentially never alone. I used to think of him as such a... kind of... somewhat abandoned and lonely character?, because I've read so many fanfics about him traveling back in time.
But canon Leo was never completely alone. Mikey was there, Mikey was with him until the very end. Mikey and him went all the way to the inevitable defeat together.
This wasn't just Leo who lost everything. It was them. Both of them. Together.
This comic really does things to my brain.

Coolest fucking animation

Leo being an angry protective is everything 🥺🫢💜💙
wippppp I will do it clearly later it's jussst aAAaaaaq[osoao *morning screaming* Okay, I did cry at Raph and Mikey's reunion, I repeat, I will die at twins reunion I MEAN YES I KNOW YOU'VE READ IT That Donnie's holding Leo in a mug and don't let anyone else hold it for one particular reason This one is like one big "I'll beat out all your bad thoughts, you won't stay here, no more bad dreams" AAA{{{{SPPSWP I just more and more understand how this song fits for them both: Donnie blames himself that he wasn't enough, he didn't do enough, "he gave them hell"; but Leo "gave them hell" because Donnie was more than any of them could wish of
People are legit talented, this is art and I’m obsessed with colors and beats 😆🙌🏼
This awesome animation is made by @tapakah0
AU made by somerandomdudelmao
FLASHING LIGHTS!
This is 100% me, and I’m not even joking 😆🙌🏼


















Donnie being the Chaotic Neutral gremlin of an Uncle I believe he would be. This took me almost 3 weeks to finish, but I did it! And yes, I did quote Grunkle Stan from Gravity Falls because that is the type of energy I feel bad future Donnie would have a lot of the time, lol. It was supposed to end with just seeing the results of the children related disaster, but the idea of Donnie not realizing he actually is supposed to be the authority figure for the kids is hilarious to me.
My brain is literally buzzing with this new update. *bear poses*
✨Character Analysis Time Go brrr✨
Like notice how Leo the “most talkative and noisy” of the brothers is completely silent when he comes back. He’s pretty much quiet for the whole exchange because he’s watching, observing and taking action. Because the first thing he does, THE FIRST THING HE DOES, is reach out to his brother. No matter how on earth he’s alive again, no matter where the heck he is, his first thought, and his last thought is to reach out to his family, to sacrifice what little he has left, every fiber that is his soul, for THEM.
This is Leo at his core: a soldier and brother in arms
And Donnie here falling asleep ONLY after saving anyone because now he’s completed his mission. He too gave everything, dauntless in the face of impossibility because he’s THE Flippin Donatello! He’s NEVER fit the status quo, and that includes dying and being dead like a normal person. But Donnie ain’t normal, that’s what makes him so brilliant. He knows that because he’s never existed in limits, that he can therefore push the boundaries and even be so bold as to break limits and that’s why he’s RELENTLESS in his discoveries and expiraments.
So now they’re back, they’re all back. He can finally rest.
This is Donnie at his core: infrastructure of the family
Also this familial kabedonning is giving me life 😆🙌🏼 These boys will be the death of me

Ok so like my friend told me that something is considered good because it moves you. Well friends…*deep deep inhale* I’ve been FrIcKeN moved by this entire comic.
Like this is just so rawly human?! And I am literally transported into this world through perspective (Empath skillz is that you?) It hurts in a good way because I literally feel like I’m there and all the characters are so in character?!
I’m just sitting in my car trying to figure out the words to express my awe at this level of skill and talent, but once again words fail me so
@2aceofspades please take my humble keyboard smash to show my appreciation for you blessing my eyes with this today. *clears throat* sudbwudhevwodbdhsixnrjekznfjslsmdbe😭🙌🏼🤧

CONGRATS AT FINISHING THIS! ✨🧡🙏🏼🙌🏼
This story means so much to me, that I am both so happy and devastated that it’s done. But it was done beautifully, so don’t mind me cheering at work rn





And finally, Aftermath Family Meeting 7 | double post for the special occasion~ :) PREV | FIRST
I cannot believe its finally finished. Aftermath was the biggest project I've completed to date and I am so honored to have so many of you along for the ride with me. Now, you may be wondering: what now?
yeah. Me too. It feels really weird to finally have this completed. But, as a donnie core individual, i have PLANS :3
I will be taking some time off of Turtles, Dreamworks Trolls is currently making my brain all fuzzy and happy so I'll be skerdoodling about in that fandom for a bit before I return to start my next Turtle Project. It's all written. You guys aren't ready. It's gonna be SICK.
Once again, thanks for being here for Aftermath. it means the world to me that so many people liked to read something I made. Remember to be kind to yourselves and that healing isnt an all at once thing, its a every day tiny steps thing. See ya soon :)

It's just nonviable for them... hopeless love
My Response to @smoothturtle0 Leo:





I honestly had so much fun drawing this, but anybody who knows me knows that this is exactly how I enter every friendship AKA you WILL be loved. This is both a threat and a promise 😈🧡👊🏼




It's just nonviable for them... hopeless love

Today on is my brain finally going to let me write, we have scent headcanons. I just got tagged by @thegirlwiththeninjaturtletattoos on a post that I honestly mostly agree with save for one thing.
Donnie would probably create some colognes and perfumes for Genius Built Apparel, but he would not be the maker of them. Who would? Leo. Why?
This.
Praise to StarKiss for seeing and catching this, because this made it incredibly interesting in finding something that would agree with little boy blue's sensitivities, especially when it comes to soap because you better believe Leonardo Hamato would want to smell like something after a shower.
Because what is Leo without his eccentricities?
So, either Leo starts looking for some brands outside of the usual range or he makes his own which I don't think he'd go with, not immediately, at least.
However, knowing Donnie and his desire to get a proper fashion label going, he would struggle in making some nice colognes and perfumes. Struggle, that is, until the day Leo walks in on Donnie working on one and starts critiquing the smell. And while I fully expect Donnie to get upset, he would have to concede after he fixes the formula and it works.
From there, pretty sure Leo helps his twin every time he makes colognes or perfumes. Probably even wears the ones he particularly likes himself. So Leo's scent profile would change pretty regularly, although I'm sure it would keep the same woodsy base.
