#raph and his heart

[brightlotusmoon]

A 20 year old headcanon that I'm thrilled to learn others have: the Ninja Turtles as literal cryptids with eldritch forces in their mutations whether they know it or not. Especially 03 and 07.

Donnie: Psychically aware of and linked to anything mechanical, electronic, technological. Stuff just happens around him, things start working. Better wifi signals, cars starting easily.

Mikey: Connects to people, animals, the elements. Cheers up everyone within a mile. Inspires games, creativity, gathering. Attracts animals that need help. Literally brings sunshine if he's there for more than ten minutes.

Leo: Able to manipulate a situation to his advantage, like being completely ignored by nearby humans while he goes shopping, and projecting confident authority so nobody questions him.

Raph: Feeds off the energies and emotions of the city overall, full of physical power that helps rescue or prevent or assist. Can turn combat around by thoroughly reading his opponents and playing off their actions and reactions.

Every day I’m haunted by the fact the boys happily swim in sewer water

Even if it’s filtered somehow there’s no way it’s not still nasty 😭 Bet they can defeat any of their villains just by accidentally giving them diseases I swear

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #bless their hearts but they’re nasty #it’s funny because like #each and every one of them has moments #where they’re a typical disgusting teenage boy #and then the next they have STANDARDS #can’t blame Leo for being so determined to go to a spa #even if he nearly licked his own foot that’s prob cleaner than anything else the boys have been up to in years 💀 #thank you shelldon for all your hard work cleaning after then 🙏 #they’re all gross teenage boys!!! #even Donnie he is NO exception here #bro was DRINKING A BEVERAGE while wading through sewer water he is just as gross as his bros #bro also talks with his mouth full he is no more refined than his equally gross bros fr and I love it #but yeah no way that water isn’t disgusting even filtering it would still leave grime on the walls of the sewer for yearsss #pros of them moving into an abandoned subway system is fixing their sense of smell enough to not be as gross #100% that’s part of why they didn’t mind being so filthy pre shelldon #because I mean they were literally raised in the sewers and they’re teenage boys like that’s a double whammy #THEY ALSO DONT WEAR SHOES #the few times any of them do the shoes are discarded before heading home 💀 #I love them tho they are endearing anyhow #April’s immune system must be godlike just being around them fr #honestly no joke Mikey’s probably the cleanest of them all #just by virtue of being a chef #Leo I see as a mixture since he no doubt loves to pamper himself so he’s clean like #a percentage of time before he goes out and ruins his own hard work #Donnie is similar in that he’s just VERY SELECTIVE about what he thinks is too gross #Raph may be more on the stinky end but it’s not his fault he has his stinks and eats things of dubious origin(esp since his bros ate poison) #Donnie and Leo really have the gall to be sick about Raph eating the origami salami but they have no room to talk #all their villains are prob like please stay away from us we have salmonella now

big brothers get bigger and little brothers get littler

#if the old vers of this takes off ill blow upthe world with us all in it it was only there for a second #heart brocken thinking abt raphy nearly the same height as his brothers today #but tomorrow hes so tall he looks down at his little brother donnie and all he can see is his face reflecting on his googles and his 5head #i forgot the QUESTION MARK! so now leos saying that as a Matter Of Fact. #annoincing that im drawing them like. from memory all the time i fourgot waht they actually look like.....? idgaf #og draws were just raph and mike but i felt Miserable not drawing all 4 so it ended up taking longer than it shouldve. #grin #rottmnt #tmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt raph #rottmnt leo #rottmnt donnie #rottmnt mikey #eyestrain #my art

[bulbabutt]

donnie probably starts to say "that makes no sense" but he gets smacked by everyone

cass apocalypse au papa raph infested my brain i cant think of anything else but like.... i realized casey jr has a funny twisted gap between his front teeth and that probably grew in like a snaggle tooth and i made myself cry about it

#rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #cass apocalypse au #future raphael #cass fanart tag #cass apocalyptic series #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #tmnt raphael #rise raph #art #my art #he just...... he baby..... he raph's baby.... ignore the puddle of my tears im so fine dont worry about me #fucking listening to you'll be in my heart cuz iM VERY NORMAL ABOUT IT #idk if i know the ages of when kids grown up teeth grow in but i think 5 yr old casey whos lost most his baby teeth makes sense

[daedelweiss]

my oldest bro donnie!! he's doing his best 🥺💜✨️ some things about him:

his bo staff has lights that blink whenever his family is in danger or in distress

splinter has a day job so donnie is left to look after his siblings a lot

a little detail about him is that he pulls up his glasses whenever he's focusing/thinking about his family. when they're down, he's on full donnie mode. when his glasses are completely off, it's serious time.

I want you to tell ‘em that you love the way that they don’t stick out like sore middle fingers

[Continuation of this]

#TMNT 2012 #casey jones 2012 #raphael hamato #rasey #this is platonic again but I’m not against romantic subtext or whatever #when I was in school being able to do this with your hand was super cool and I often still do it with both #but I’ve met both adults and kids who’ve never seen it before and it freaks them out ahaha #anyway I was jus thinking of hands again and this is a warm up sketch #but i do think thee two would have heart to hearts on rooftops sometimes and really open up #maybe theyre sat next to eachother and raph looks at his thigh next to Casey’s and gets self conscious #maybe one of them was hurt in a fight (probably Casey) and theyre patching eachother up and they just start exploring their differences #or maybe its something as simple as raph asking casey if he was Tarzan and the scene with the hands and Casey’s like yo we can do that #or even more childish theyre just doing it to see who’s hands bigger because Casey’s sister has been doing it a lot and its fun #because let me tell you it doesnt matter how old the kids i work with are they all love comparing my hand with theirs #but i imagine Raphs eyes for a second would give away hes upset a little cause he’s definitely the most self conscience about being a mutant #so Casey would do this and be like ahh look see we arent that different really #raph could bend his fingers to emphasise how much shorter Casey’s are #and cause would say something like these digits might be small but theyre mighty #leading to a shove or even a thumb war or something #anyway ill stop gushing i have a comission to do xxx #OH OH OH THE BITE MARK ON CASEY IS BECAUSE A MUTUAL COMMENTS ABOUT EATING MY RASEY ART SO THATS THEIR TEETH but im not naming names....

Raph normally: my brothers? psh, those lame-os, I'm always having to make sure they're not killing themselves AND I'm the one who actually gets missions done [insert name-calling]

Raph the moment any of them are in a smidgen of danger: THOSE ARE MY BROTHERS, ARE THEY OKAY, OH MY GOD IM GONNA BE SICK, COME HERE MIKEY [clutching onto Mikey] JESUS CHRIST DONT DO THAT EVER AGAIN I NEARLY HAD A HEART ATTACK

[an ms paint drawing of three of the turtles in their Fast Forward designs, facing the viewer. Leonardo is in the middle with his eyes closed and laughing, Michelangelo is under his right arm, and Donatello is under Leo’s left arm. Mikey and Donny both have their eyes closed and are singing out of tune and smiling]

#TMNT #TMNT 2003 #TMNT: Fast Forward #Leonardo #Michelangelo #Donatello #20s scribblings #i just adore them soooo much #you have no idea #fast forward is definitely annoying after the heart and depth of the prev 5 seasons #but ive been trying to look at it slightly more objectively and it's so cute #also!!! they all get to be big brothers to Cody!!! it is so precious! #speaking of. i was going to draw raph with cody sitting on his shoulders but i got lazy #2k3 #mikey #leo #donnie #pitdwellers

HEADS UP.

You know that very very angry young anon who harassed me over TMNT 2003 until I turned off anon? They're back, with sock puppet accounts to yell at my friends with.

They sent me an inbox message that kind of broke my heart. About how since I think about Raph and Mikey's relationship in various lights, it makes sense my brain damage would mean I'm a "cunt" about it. "Brain damaged cunt" is something most people might flinch at.

Honey, listen. If you are that angry at people in your fandom for not feeling the same way as you about a pair of fictional brothers who tease each other, you need to get out of fandom altogether for a while. Talk to someone about your mental health. Take some deep breaths. Really think about why you had to call me a brain damaged cunt like it's the worst insult you can think of (you want insults? hang out with my old social group for an hour, they would have torn you to ribbons).

You've said I support and encourage consistent teasing, after you obviously dug through my blog to learn about the bullying I endured. You've said blatantly untrue things to the point where I'm wondering what your overall goal is, if any.

I hope you have the day you deserve.

#i love this fandom #you guys are truly the cryptids of all time #remember when fans got along #tmnt 2003 #raph and mikey #raph and his heart

Headcanon that since Leo is not much for non comic books, he gained all his medical knowledge through very graphic and in depth medical videos instead.

The boy is no longer phased in the slightest by it anymore. The others cannot say the same whenever they catch a glimpse of a surgical operation playing on Leo’s phone.

His portaling abilities also give him the ability to secretly join med students in watching operation room procedures.

Listen I just think Medic!Leo would go about his learning process in the most Leo of ways.

#rottmnt #rottmnt leo #medic leo #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #Leo watching an open heart operations with a bright smile on his face #meanwhile Raph is passed out in a heap behind him after seeing one (1) frame of it over Leo’s shoulder #Leo canonically knows what the inside of April’s school looks like so there’s a possibility he snuck into a biology lab for a dissection lol

You know what? I’m honestly surprised there isn’t (as far as I’m aware of) a ROTTMNT 2012 crossover that takes place immediately after the Rise Boys just after defeating the Shredder and losing their Karai and through some accident one way or another they end up in the 2012 TMNT universe

But here’s the kicker: instead of usually running into the 2012 TMNT or their Kraang they run into Karai and her foot soldiers (somewhere after she takes lead of the foot clan) and being the morally-grey and fresh-out-of-losing-their-Karai trauma turtles they are they immediately attach onto her like children lost in a store

Look where I’m getting at is I just want morally-grey rise turtles hanging out with 2012 Karai and just having some not-so-innocent fun, you know? Like I feel like the fandom should make more Rise Turtles and 2012 Karai content, it would be great

#I have a feeling Rise Leo and 2012 Karai would enjoy making fun of 2012 Leo together #like okay yeah angst and everything when they realize she’s evil and all that but also #the boys: we can fix her #also the boys: after we’re done bullying these mutant losers that work for her #just guys c’mon #like it would be fun cmon #I’d like to imagine she and rise donnie get into roasting matches #she brings Mikey to the best places for him in New York for him just to go apeshit and graffiti stuff #and maybe set the occasional thing on fire #(the purple dragons lair coinceidentally a sewer drain close by the 12 turtles lair just the places of people she doesn’t like) #I think she and Raph would have genuinely good heart-to-heart moments AND give him a proper outlet for all his emotions #and as stated before she and Rise Leo would have WAY too much fun roasting the 12 turtles #(also remember that offer of stealing a katana she gave to 12 Leo in that one episode? Rise Leo would ABSOLUTELY take her up on that) #THAT PLACE IS GETTING ROBBED #like yeah eventually they redeem her through the power of the found family trope #but also— #crime turtles #rottmnt #rise tmnt #tmnt crossover #2012 tmnt #2012 karai #like obviously they all turn good in the end and shit BUT CRIME #sorry I’m obsessed with this idea now #I’m gonna go try to find fics where she and the rise turtles bond now goodbye #and then they see her turn into a snake and they’re like #AYO POP OFF QUEEN #while she’s viciously tearing apart her enemies #and then they see Shinigami and they’re like ‘Ayo guys we got another lesbian sister’ #like I just think we deserve them as a group you know
