Ye

I'm honestly really hooked on the idea of the rise turtles hosting another lair games where the 2012 turtles get to participate

It could be like, team 12 and team rise, and occasionally teams are switched to pair with their counterparts. More players also means more events so the 12 boys could even suggest a few games to even it out

Jhfsstjhfjhs you're welcome!!! I actually really like the thin lines, I think it gives it a sort of soft flowy look that I think is pretty hard to accomplish with thicker lines

I actually have the exact opposite problem tbh, I've been favoring thicker lines in my art, but when I try to use thinner lines, I can't capture the flowing weightless detail like I want too

(tbh I think the coloring of the lineart might aid in that so next time I line that might be something I try hehegeg,,)

Something about your artstyle is so beautiful and satisfying to look at I'm literally addicted to it,,

Aww !! Thank you so much !! I try my best, honestly- 😭👍✨

I've said this on my other platforms as well, but sometimes I feel really bad for using such thin lines all the time,, I just worry that it makes my art kind of hard to see or hard to make out clearly-? And then I'll try doing thick lines instead (But it's obvious I'll erase it in places to make it look appealing to me- The best examples of this that I've already posted are my 2012 Mikey and Leo collages as well as my Vampiric 2012 Jonatello post !), but that's never as appealing to me ( + it's more time consuming to do that-) as the thin lines are so I often feel conflicted,, 😭

But it does make me feel good to know that you think it looks satisfying ! I hope to improve and make even better fan art for this franchise ! 🫶✨

So it seems that the Villain Donnie AU is our winner, followed by Elements and Tokyo Ghoul

Expect more of my evil little guy soon!!

Another sneak peak to keep ya on your toes,,,

I finally hit 3,000 words!!! This thing's gonna be LONG

I've been working on wip fics for quite a while now but rn I'm going full throttle on my tmnt 2012 Tokyo Ghoul AU and I've just been working on this quick little one shot about Donnie going through The Horrors™. Because of course I am

Do you ever think about how 12! Mikey probably feels personally responsible for his brother's happiness

Do you ever think about Leo tries to sacrifice himself a few too many times for it to really just be him taking responsibility as leader

Do you ever think about how Mikey probably worries that one day he'll wake up and Leo will be gone because he didn't do enough to make him happy

Okay, I made more reaction images/memes👀

You were asking for this, right?

Art that's technically supposed to be AU related but there's not much that gives it away so it's like whatever lol

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!! AHH AHHHHHH !!!!!!! AAAAAAAHHHH !!!!!! AHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !! AAAAAHHHH AAAAAAAAAHHHHH !! AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!! AHHH !! AHHHHHH !!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH !!!!! AAAAAAH !!!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!! !! AHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!! AAAAAHHHH AAAAAAAAHHHHH AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH !!!

OK so lemme just—

I know this seems like a wild take but I stick by it. On the surface Raph and Shredder may seem very similar but I truly think Donnie has a bit more in common with him instead

The only thing Raph and Shredder have in common, to me at least, is rage.

Rage isn't all who Shredder is. Rage isn't all who Raph is either, but their anger is different. Raph's more emotional in his anger, more reactive. If someone pisses him off he shows how he feels immediately. He's not the type to bide his time and form a plan. He's also not a very good leader, as seen when he froze up in New Girl in Town.

But Shredder is.

He's cold and calculated in his plans even when blinded by rage and seeking revenge. He's extremely cunning and dedicated to his goals and will stop at nothing to achieve them, even if it involves taking the life of someone who's wronged him, no matter what anyone says or what he has to do.

So, does that remind you of anyone?

Out of all the turtles, Donnie, as far as I know, is the only one to have an arc that revolves around him trying to kill someone out of revenge for a past incident and having to be taught otherwise. Leo hasn't, Mikey hasn't, and Raph hasn't either. From what I know, it's only been Donnie.

And of course I can't talk about parallels without bringing up the love triangle between him, April and Casey.

It's obvious that Donnie doesn't like Casey at first, because he's jealous. Jealous because of his feelings for April and towards himself and how Casey manages to tear everything apart. He saw him as a love rival and feared for the day that April chooses Casey over him, so he lashed out.

Shredder was jealous because Tang Shen chose Splinter over him. He was consumed by his feelings and lashed out as well, although he had more fatal consequences.

Thankfully the love triangle never got to the point of murder obviously, but Donnie and Casey very much fought a lot because of their affection for April, just like Shredder, Splinter and Tang Shen.

Admittedly a lot of this is a reach and maybe a bit surface level but I've wrote enough and figured I should get this off my chest somehow °3°

I'm kinda in the mood for some 12! Donnie angst so I wanna get the ball rolling by mentioning how I think he has more similarities with the Shredder than Raph does :p

…I’M SORRY.

ARE YOU REALLY JUST GONNA DROP THIS IN MY ASKBOX AND WALK AWAY?
