#bc leo was angry (bc leo was feeling guilty and absolutely terrified)

[thisisadonaldduckblognow]

me thinking about the moment in the movie where leo is fighting krangified raph and he is feeling so much pressure and so much stress and guilt and he is so so scared for his family and for raph especially because he just wants to get raph out safely, he just wants his brother with him and their family unharmed and in one piece, but he can’t get through why won’t raph HEAR him why isn’t raph LISTENING he just wants to SAVE HIM why is he making things SO HARD--

and that is the moment where it finally fully clicks for leo, after all this, where raph was coming from at the start of the movie. that it wasn’t about being stubborn or wanting to call all the shots and be the boss, it wasn’t pettiness or raph being hard on them for no reason. it was always just raph wanting them to be safe, and getting scared and frustrated when doing that was difficult. or when, perhaps, certain stinker lil brothers seemed to be going out of their way to make it difficult.

like he really has that hard stop moment of realization while he’s looking directly at raph... at his own reflection u could say... love that

#rottmnt #rottmnt leo #rottmnt raph #rise raph #rise leo #rise of the tmnt #ive seen the interpretation that leo yelling about raph making things so hard is also him sharing his own POV about their dynamic lately? #and i dig that too! #another notch in the ways that honestly they are very similar in motivation tbh #the OH moment! #OH this is why it's been so tense OH this is why raph has been so hardline and irritated when i fly off solo #like after raph was captured leo spent a lot of time kinda bullheadedly larping what he thought raph would do? #bc leo was angry (bc leo was feeling guilty and absolutely terrified) #all the way up to the roof scene where he finally learned his listen to the team lesson (a lesson raph also had to learn in the series) #like it was such a genuine misunderstanding and miscommunication leo is over here doing his best raph but what he THOUGHT raph was doing #and like raph is a great leader while raph is leader! does very well learns and grows ive gone on about that before but #like for all their similarities they are still different people with different strengths so the double whammy of trying to do a raph AND #sincerely not GETTING where raph had been coming from #was a recipe for disaster #and like leo's leadership strengths come through more after the roof scene but this scene is about his relationship to raph #this little moment where he stops himself and has this what am i DOING moment has this no wait i finally GET IT moment #like that's just all i can see when i see that scene; the final breakthrough for leo that makes him able to reach for raph properly #bc he WAS just fighting him before that; and maybe in raphs zombie mind hell that carried over idk
