Don’t Tell Rise Mikey What ‘12 Leo Did To His Toaster.

Lum by Jason@constellor

NO BC 12 LEO WAS LEGIT EXPERIENCING PSYCHOSIS.

WE CANONICALLY SEE WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR THE TURTLES TO TALK TO SPIRITS / THE SPIRIT OF THEIR FATHER. ESP IN VISION QUEST AND AT THE END OF THE DEMODRAGON ARC.

SPLINTER'S ALL GLOWY AND STUFF AND GHOSTS IN GENERAL IN THE SHOW DONT LOOK LIKE SOLID BEINGS.

LEO WAS 100% THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD SEE SPLINTER WHEN HE TALKED TO HIM AFTER HE DIED.

BESIDES, SPLINTER TALKED TO ALL HIS SONS BOTH TIMES HE WAS IN SPIRIT FORM. THE FACT DONNIE COULDN'T SEE HIM JUST CEMENTS THE FACT THAT SPLINTER NEVER REALLY WAS THERE.

I'M JUST- I NEED A MOMENT-

THIS IS SO COOL! ILOVEIT AAAAAH-

happy mutation day <3

@misteria247, found a few more pieces from Darkest Plight Leo can tell his counterparts about

Aaaaaaah! I'm really curious about a lot of things, but if you'd rather avoid answering some feel free. First, what are Shigaraki's thoughts on Izuku? Because if I were Shigaraki I would be truly terrified of Izuku and what he's accomplished, because how is it that a boy, a peasant, has achieved that level of influence with his knights, knights who are supposed to legally serve the King, and they left him escape?? And how did he manage to get Katsuki, the boy he's molded since childhood, to turn against him, something that hadn't happened before his arrival. This speaks to two things that Shigaraki is going to have to think about, one that Izuku is a danger to his position and two, it shows how fragile his influence is.

Second, what did Himiko feel when she saw Izuku pull out Blackwhimp? What I mean by that is, was she scared or did she see something the others didn't? Since she tried to divert attention from Izuku and the others. Although maybe it's simply because she didn't want them to find out.

Finally, something that's been on my mind. When you write the interactions between Izuku and Katsuki, do you think Izuku replicates Katsuki's little tics and gestures? and vice versa. Since they both had pretty lonely childhoods.

Oh! And I almost forgot, I wanted to recommend a song that reminded me of the boys, it's called "Impacto" form 'Enjambre' because this is the first verse:

"Those crossed arms

And that angry frown

Have me intrigued

You intimidate me, what do I do?

And if you take one step, you make me cry

And if you walk any further, I'm going to hit the ground"

IT'S LITERALLY THEM! 💖💖💖

Also this is me 👇, after reading about Izuku living Camelot 😍🥺💋

Another fun ask from youuu 🤩 my day is made.

On Shigaraki’s thoughts on Izuku:

lemme tell you rn, that man did not even KNOW Izuku’s name for the majority of the fic.

BUT. And it’s a big but.

Even before chapter 20, Shigaraki absolutely HATES Izuku. Because he still remembers being immobile and having Izuku clothe and feed him (before he completely succumbed to hellebore). Imagine: this prideful man having his entire life in the hands of this… boy. Who he later finds out saved him. Even if Himiko did nothing in chapter 20, he would have found a way to get rid of Izuku out of sheer spite. Now this is made 100x worse by the events of chapter 20. Izuku stands up to him because he knows that Himiko and Katsuki don’t have the strength to, but by doing so he gives them the strength that Shigaraki stole from them. And shigaraki would see it as theft: theft of allegiance, theft of his knights, of his power. Yeaaaa he wants to beat that boy up.

By the end of act 2 Shigaraki doesn’t have his closest advisors, his knights’ loyalty, his fated trump card (Katsuki’s) love, and the daughter he is obsessed with (Himiko): all seemingly leading back to Izuku. He is completely exposed and therefore can’t think strategically. He’s thinking emotionally, basically begging his knights back.

(Also, Izuku was about to kill that man LOL so it’s reciprocated).

Re: Himiko’s thoughts on seeing black whip:

so glad someone asked bc I have Feelings™. Imagine you’re Himiko and you have exactly ONE second to reprocess every single interaction you have had with Izuku with this new, very crucial piece of information. Every time Izuku comforted her about her powers, or confronted her. Every time he let her feel like she was alone. But also every time HE was alone, and didn’t confide in her. I think she felt very conflicted, bc there was so much to think about (and in this moment SHE feels sorry for HIM, just as he did for her), but also he was about to lose control.

In the end, I don’t think she forgave Katsuki and Izuku for saving Shigaraki. But, instinctively she stopped Izuku from killing him and saved Shigaraki (why? I’ll leave that up to interpretation).

(For funsies I like to think what would’ve have happened if Izuku DID kill Shigaraki, in front of everyone. And Katsuki’s reaction during and after: in the knowledge that his friend just killed someone, and Izuku did it for HIM. Hehhehe so fun, bc Katsuki would ofc stick by him).

Re: Izuku imitating Katsuki,

OMGGG yes, I totally think he does! I hope to bring this out more in the separation as a form of missing someone, and wanting to feel close to them. I think tics and mannerisms are right, but also deeper personality mirroring. Izuku was extremely passive before Camelot, but I think by being around Katsuki he’s become passionate, assertive and more confident.

And the song rec!! I’ve listened to the song before but just to vibe. And oh my god, when I translated the lyrics it hit me in the chest. It is just soooooo them, thank you for recommending! Going on my golden slumbers playlist ASAP.

I’ll give you a rec in return: although I don’t have a specific song that is my fave, I loveee Florence + the Machine for this fic: the general whimsical, fairy tale vibe is sooo on point. Her song My Boy Builds Coffins inspired the boat conversation between BKDK in chapter 16.

10 Best Serialized Cartoons

This day and age is amazing for cartoon fans because we have many different types of cartoons to enjoy! Whether we prefer serialized or episodic, there is a bunch from both worlds for us! Many typically lead to one side, and while I love episodic cartoons, serialized ones are my favorite! In this blog, I will highlight my 10 best serialized cartoons!

10. Sym-Bionic Titan

I am opening this list up by discussing an underrated gem that deserved way better! Sym-Bionic Titan is a series that ran from 2010 to 2011 for only 20 episodes. The series revolved around Lance, Ilana and Octus who all left their planet Galuna due to these creatures called the Mutraddi consuming it. They arrived on Earth, and blended in as normal. The series gets the name from when the three combine. When this occurs, they form the Sym-Bionic Titan. Now, this series is truly amazing - we get amazing writing along with amazing characters and the artstyle is beautiful! Sadly, Sym-Bionic Titan has not been treated fairly, and due to this, it has a pretty short runtime, but it is still awesome!  You can watch Sym-Bionic Titan on iTunes!

9. Motorcity

Motorcity is one of the few shows that I love, but I can’t help but feel upset every time I watch it. The reason for it is because of how badly it was treated (see my other blogs for what I mean by that). Motorcity was a series which ran from 2012 to 2013 for a season. Motorcity revolves around a group of six who call themself the Burners. The Burners share the goal of stopping the evil billionaire and ruler of Detroit named Abraham from taking over Motorcity, a small part of Detroit which he is trying to take over. The Burners have six members - Mike (the leader), Julie (an insider trying to get information from Abraham), Texas (the muscle), Chuck (the tech guy), Dutch (the smart one) and Jacob (the older member who mentors them). This series had lots to enjoy - the characters, the plot and the series sometimes got introspective which added a lot to it for me. Motorcity was a great series that deserved better, and I am sure that if it got promoted properly by the network, it would be featured on more people’s 10 best serialized cartoons lists! You can watch Motorcity on iTunes!

8. Ducktales

This is another one of the many Disney cartoons that had made me into a huge fan. Ducktales was a series that ran for 3 seasons and 69 episodes from 2017 to 2021. It was about Donald Duck, his uncle Scrouge and his three nephews, Huey, Louie and Dewey who essentially go on treasure hunting related adventures. Each season has a different arc, with each providing a different sort of adventure to the series. The series has much to love - we are introduced to great characters, a great story and fantastically written humor. While many reboots fall flat, Ducktales was one of the reboots that hit the nail and exceeded my expectations! You can watch Ducktales on Disney Plus!

7. Steven Universe

I am sure many will agree with me when I introduce one of the cartoons of the 2010s that pushed boundaries and helped increase representation - Steven Universe! Steven Universe ran for 5 seasons from 2013 to 2019, and had a total of 160 episodes. The series revolved around Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl and Steven - The Crystal Gems. They were essentially alien warriors who protected the world from any sort of peril. One catch to them was that Steven was a half human who got the Gem side from his mother and the human side from his father. Steven Universe’s plot would continue to progress as the series went on. There was a lot to love about the series - the color choice was beautiful, the characters were amazingly done and the series helped increase representation by pushing boundaries. Steven Universe is definitely a strong series and one that was impactful! You can watch Steven Universe on Hulu!

6. Teen Titans

This is a classic from many of our childhoods…I had to include it on here for sure! Teen Titans ran for a total of 5 seasons and 65 episodes, and the series ran for 3 years from 2003 to 2006. The series centered around five superheroes calling themselves the Teen Titans. The group consists of Robin (the leader), Beast Boy (has the power to morph into an animal), Starfire (an alien princess), Cyborg (a cyborg) and Raven (a goth girl with telekinesis). The series has many different arcs, with each arc focusing on a different character. The series had so much that I took away from it: we had awesome characters who are all iconic and unique in their own ways, great voice acting to back up these characters and an amazing soundtrack. Teen Titans is truly amazing, and it is still iconic up to this day. You can watch Teen Titans on iTunes, Google Play or Amazon!

5. Avatar: The Last Airbender

Now, I am moving back to a cartoon that was definitely a bit older than the previous entries, and one that was clearly a standout from its time! Avatar the Last Airbender was a series which ran from 2005 to 2008 for a total of 3 seasons and 61 episodes. The series revolves around the Avatar, Aang who is supposedly the only person who can master all four elements and restore peace after the fire nation attacked. The avatar was found by two siblings from the water tribe, Katara and Sokka, who travel with him to different nations so that he can master all four elements and defeat the fire lord, Ozai. This series had much to love - my favorite aspect was the story. Despite having an intense story, the humor also made the series for me. Finally, the artstyle won me over. I loved the anime-esque artstyle this series provided! Avatar: The Last Airbender was definitely an amazing series, and it’s no secret why it’s so loved today! You can watch Avatar: The Last Airbender on Netflix!

4. Detentionaire

Ah yes, now I move back to the 2010s…to a series that blew my mind when I had first seen it with it’s very intricate mystery! Detentionaire was an animated series which ran from 2011 to 2015 and had 4 seasons of 53 episodes. Detentionaire was about a high schooler named Lee Ping who gets framed for a huge prank on the first day of high school, and gets detention for a whole year. He sneaks out every day to figure out who set him up, and while the series starts off with him interacting with different groups at school to see who set him up, he eventually finds out that there are secrets hidden deep beneath the school that could put the entire world in harm. He also finds out that he and his bloodline are connected to everything that is going on. This series is amazing - my favorite thing about this series is definitely the progression that we go through with each episode. Furthermore, the characters are all enjoyable and the overall mystery is just so fun to try solving! Not only is the mystery fun to try solving during the first watch, but the writers also put in little hints regarding what’s to come later on, making rewatching the series very satisfying! Detentionaire is truly one of my favorite cartoons of all time, and while it is definitely underrated, I am happy it still has a fandom! You can watch Detentionaire on the YouTube channel Retro Rerun, or on Tubi!

3. Gravity Falls

As I mentioned earlier, I am a huge Disney fan! At this point of the blog, don’t expect any non-Disney shows. Anyways, to start this Disney run off, I would like to give attention to Gravity Falls! Gravity Falls was a series which ran from 2012 to 2016 for a total of 2 seasons and 40 episodes. Gravity Falls was about two twins named Dipper and Mabel who visit their grunkle, Stan, at a town full of mysteries known as Gravity Falls. In this town, Stan owns a tourist trap known as the Mystery Shack, but aside from the “mysteries” in the Mystery Shack, Dipper hopes to uncover the true mysteries of Gravity Falls as he finds out that Gravity Falls us not what it appears to be. With the help of Mabel and two Mystery Shack employees named Soos and Wendy, Dipper aims to uncover the big underlying mystery behind Gravity Falls. Gravity Falls was definitely a well thought out and unique show. Like Detentionaire, it had a great mystery and was fun to rewatch as there are lots of hints sprinkled in the earlier episodes. Furthermore, the characters were all really entertaining and the pacing was really fluid and made sure every episode was engaging without running into the plot too fast. Gravity Falls was truly an amazing show, and despite seeing so many awesome cartoons after it ended, Gravity Falls has remained in my top 3 since. You can watch Gravity Falls on Disney Plus!

2. The Owl House

Now, this is a show that really continued pushing the boundaries like how Steven Universe did. The Owl House is a series running from 2020 and still running. It currently has 2 seasons of 40 episodes, and is expected to get one more season containing three specials. The Owl House is about a girl named Luz who unexpectedly ends up in a new world by the name of Boiling AIsles after finding a portal. In this island, she meets a witch named Eda who helps train her to become a witch. Now, I love The Owl House. The series has awesome animation, and awesome characters to back these characters up. Furthermore, the LGBTQ representation in this series is a huge plus for the series. It truly is awesome, and it definitely deserved better. You can watch The Owl House on Disney+ or Disney Now!

1. Amphibia

Anyone who has been following me for a while probably knows this…Amphibia is not only my favorite serialized cartoon, but my favorite cartoon of all time! Amphibia ran from 2019 to 2022 for a total of 3 seasons and 58 episodes. Amphibia is about a girl named Anne Boonchuy who, along with her friends, Marcy Wu and Sasha Waybright steal a magic box. This box ends up transporting the three friends to the magical world of Amphibia, which is a world full of frogs. In this series, Anne has the goal of finding her two friends and getting back home. However, along the way, she faces many different challenges both in the forms of monsters and her own inner struggles, and she finds out that not everyone is who she really thinks they are. Now, I love Amphibia. We have a bunch of loveable characters, we have some huge twists and we have a very unique and interesting concept. Amphibia is such an amazing series, and I am so happy that it became a part of my life! You can watch Amphibia on Disney Plus or Disney Now!
