Fixing 2012 Apritello

I got inspired by @sophfandoms53 posts that you can check out here (It’s an amazing short analysis, I suggest you read it cause what they said was so true about the 2012 series) It inspired me to quickly write this.

In their post they talked about how April and Donnie’s romance was handled poorly with the Love at First Sight Trope, how they could handled it similarly to April and Donnie’s friendship in the 2003 series with how they became friends through their love of science, which I highly agree with!

If you’ve been following me, you know I think 2012 Apritello is very flawed. I’ve complained about it many times and how certain moments were cringe and could’ve been fixed. (Like that Farm House kiss, wtf was that pointless crap?). But I saw Soph’s post and it made me realize how this mess of ship could’ve been fixed and could’ve been so much better.

Have Donnie and April have no romantic feelings for each other in the beginning (meaning Donnie doesn’t fall in love with April in the first episode) and instead have it build up over time, they become friends through having similar interests and slowly it turns their friendship into a romantic connection. Best Friends to Lovers Trope done right!

Here’s how I would personally make 2012 Apriltello go:

DUE TO STRESS AND STUFF I DECIDED THAT I WILL ONLY DO THE PARTS OF TMNTEMBER I GENUINELY WANNA DO CUZ I CANT SPIT OUT 22 ART PIECES IN THE SPAN OF TWO DAYS. I might actually finish the rest in October... Idk so here's the first topic I really wanted to talk about and draw:

DAY 13: SCARS, PART 1

oh boy oh boy! More talking less art but it counts.

DUE TO STRESS AND STUFF I DECIDED THAT I WILL ONLY DO THE PARTS OF TMNTEMBER I GENUINELY WANNA DO CUZ

So here's my idea on the scars, starting with my fav turtle, thus making his scars the WORST cuz I love him, DONATELLO!!

So we all know Donnie got disintegrated into atoms in that one ep right? And then got put together right? Well! I have a headcanon, also a part of my future AU. Basically:

A week or so after the events of the episode, Donnie wakes up in the middle of the night (for some reason idk I'm bad at making up shit). He scratches his head and finds out: his middle finger on his right hand is bleeding. It must've been for a while, cuz there's quite a bit of blood on the bed as well. When did that happen? Did he hurt himself during the day? Why would it start bleeding now? Wanting to continue sleeping, he just puts a bandaid on and goes to sleep again. He wakes up in the morning, and damn. The bandaid is completely drenched in blood, there's a lot of blood on the bed. Oh shit!

He gets up and Immediately runs to the kitchen to tell his brothers. Why won't it stop bleeding? It's just a tiny scratch. After thinking for a while, Leo tries using the healing mantra that Splinter taught him. The bleeding stops! For a whole minute. Then it starts again. This is weird. Really weird. They bandage it for now, sitting down in the kitchen to eat breakfast (pizza ofc idk?). Some time passes, and Casey and April show up to say hello! That's when it hits. Oh no. Donnie quickly runs to his lab, finds his best microscope, fiddles with it a bit so his finger fits under it and checks. Exactly what he thought. His finger is slowly dissapearing. Atom by atom, piece by piece. Due to the constant disintegration, the finger can't heal, causing blood to spill nonstop. Shit! What now??

Anyways. I think that's long enough... In the end they search for the remains of the crystal that managed to get Donnie put back together so Dee can study it and find out how to stop the disintegration, but by the time he does the damage done on his hand is really bad, thus the robotic prosthetic. Wowie!!!! I will definitely draw this someday

Man.. I feel like I'll make this into more parts cuz this is extremely long already. Most people won't even read this. So yeah, Part 1!!!
