I Love It When Everyone Takes The Time In The Middle Of A Fight To Tell Mikey He's Doing A Good Job.

HOCUS POCUS REF??? I 100% headcanon that Raph loves Hocus Pocus

i wasnt supposed to post this one here but i dont have anything else rn 🫂

Don't know who they are but they're solo cute :3

love IS in the air and its squidswag

This is my favorite artist🫶🏽

Gotta say, your Rise Seperated AU is so clever and such a fascinating concept. Yoinking the turtles from the Bad Endings of various branches off of the main timeline? Genius, I love it.

Can we see some more of your Seperated AU Mikey? Also, how old is everyone in this AU? Like, what age were each of them when Mikey rescued them?

Thank you so much! X3

Leo's age is a mystery, cuz the guy kind of stopped counting after so many years on his own.

However, he does know for a fact that he was around 32 when he and Casey Jr. took down the Technodrome, so he's somewhere around that age range.

I don't actually have a lot of things on Mikey just yet.

I do however have these concept doodles I made when first coming up with the AU idea.

He doesn't wear his mask anymore cuz of his hair, and I'm trying to come up with a place to put it in his design. I kinda like the idea that he uses it to pull back his hair like with the bow thing here.

Idk, still finalizing on designs, but whatever XD

Does he know how to kick flip?

I love this artist very much :3

Wait, wait, wait, okay, so in your "Leo's design" post, you mentioned that Mikey had an idea of how to fix up Leo's old tattered mask. Then, in your "Donnie's dynamic" post, Leo's got his brothers' colors braided into his mask tails (which looks, just, so cool btw). Was this what you meant???

Yes!!

One of my favorite things about Leo's design in the movie is that he has Donnie and Raph's masks tied to his sword.

I decided that in my au, when Leo's Mikey 'disappeared' in his timeline, Leo held on to his baby brother's mask the same way.

Jump to a few (several) years later, and Leo's mask was in desperate need of repairs.

And so (with the aid of Splinter's sewing skills) Mikey thought it would be a fun idea to combine all of the masks Leo carried around together.

I like to think that Mikey chose to incorporate all four masks into one just because he thought it would look cool, not necessarily because they belonged to Leo's brothers (though that was definitely part of the decision process.)

For Leo?

It meant the world to him. Those are the last things he has of his past life, the last tie he has to his brothers. And now they'll always be with him, forever by his side, even if separated by death.

These kinds of things are what make Leo wonder what he ever did to deserve getting a second chance of being with his loved ones again.

i hope you get worse actually

A little animatic I've been thinking about doing for some time.
