ROTTMNT 60s AU !!!
UHHHH JUST WANTED TO PUT THIS OUT THERE WHILE I'M STUCK IN DENIAL ABOUT MY WRITER'S BLOCK
please this man has SOUL
he sings in clubs in new york, he has a record coming out in '67 with his band Raphael and The Digg
his brothers didn't feel like joining the band, so it's up to some talented musician girls he met without a trained main vocalist (digg, with prairie dog, honey badger, and groundhog)
they're super popular in harlem and they make it to charts
raph meets other motown records signees and they always find he's the gentlest of giants
he and his band DESERVES a grammy
he's a surfer !!!
he loves competing in surfing tournaments in long island
the boy's a legend, other surfers think he's a fish at first
if he didn't have separation anxiety for his brothers (a post-kraang headcanon) he would have gone to the west coast where the real competitions are (they never feel like leaving new york for very long)
for now he's happy surfing the coast of long island
he loves when todd surfs with him, his favourite part is the lemonade he gets afterwards
donatello is OBSESSED with the space race
he managed to hack nasa for rocket blueprints
he got caught and they asked him if he was a communist but there was no found evidence that proved he was so he was let go and his name was cleared
he managed to improve the blueprints he got his hands on and built more efficient rockets, then he used computing tech to make his very own battleshell
he has a super-powered telescope he nicknamed shelldon
donnie predicted the states would win the space race in 1965 because it had something to do with the war, i myself don't know how he used that data point to draw a conclusion
mikey is such a hippie he has mugshots of his charming smiling face framed to prove it
very anti-war, very pro-civil rights movement, pro-dope and lowkey anti-united states government
he was at the stonewall riots !!!!!
he not only fought for human civil rights, but for mutants too, so that he and his brothers could be acknowledged as citizens
humans turned into mutants are already citizens, but the mistreatment they get is unfair and mikey chose to be a leading pioneer for mutant rights
leo (hesitantly) opened portals for mikey in the south so that he could stand with people of colour in their trying times
lou jitsu was popular in golden age hollywood, he won many accolades for his films until big mama made it look like he was signed to stay in the battle nexus
jupiter jim films are actually westerns, his name is junebug jim instead
big mama is a big mafia boss woman regardless of the era she's in, though her battle nexus is televised for all ages
instead of becoming criminals, mutants follow mikey's lead protesting for mutant/yokai rights and new york is the first city to acknowledge it
the turtles' beach parties are insane, there's always some people other than the siblings lingering around at midnight
april is the best reporter out there, she reports on the turtles' exploits all the time and she makes mad BANK over it (successful 60s black woman slay)
the foot clan is a cult a lot like the manson family, the turtles hate their guts
baron draxum does the same thing he always did, brood in his lab trying to destroy the humans (that is until mikey gets through to him)
sr. hueso's run of the mill pizza is still the turtles' favourite pizza spot, though the establishment is beachside because he's on good terms with his brother, who mainly does imports
casey jr. is a star hockey player, he also avoids the draft because he's from the future, so the government doesn't have his records
but cass protests against the war with mikey whenever she can, she's also anti-war
donnie also managed to be the first mutant on the moon by his own means, it's been a childhood dream since he saw laika's launch in sputnik 2
aight that's all i have for now, i hope you enjoyed !!
Ooh~ dont you find this straaaaange~
Only thing we share is one last name~
Did I beat you at your own game?

Mud dogs! Damn... I wanna spinoff abt them <33333
They're playing in "who will look at this bug longer, is getting the last can of food."
(Only Mickey and Leo are playing btw, because Danny ate all already. Plus, these two idiots tried to kill each other because Leo lost and didn't want to share his food. So they asked Danny to be their referee.)
"I hope mum's ok..."
(Why? ↑↑↑ hehehe, aaangst in the next post :P)
Awh! Cmon! Don't tell me they're not besties!
And these two dumbasses are putting rings, little bagels and stolen things on his tail. heh, funny kids.
And sketch of Leonard!
(I tried to customize his design a bit, but in the end it looks like he's sick.)

Tl;dr: My fics on ao3, specifically Under Streetlights, will be coming back.
I am finally working on the next chapter of Under Streetlights! Seasonal depression has finally left me alone, so I should be able to return to writing more often.
Streetlights will take precedence for now, considering how long it has been since that one has gotten an update, but if my motivation keeps up like I think it will be, Rising Smoke and Sparks will also be continued at a quicker rate!
Will hopefully also be able to finish my holiday crossover special finally.
And then I have many other ideas cooking up in the noggin that hopefully I'll be able to share... on some of my other socials I've already shared the beginning of one of them.

Leo really doesn't like to think about death.
I mean, we all saw how much impact Karai's death had on all of Mad Dogs but Leo was the only one that had to be dragged from her, yelling after her, he really, really didn't want to lose her.
And I think when he lost her it left a deep scar.
I saw posts talking how Leo wants for things to get back to normal and pretend nothing happened, which I completely agree with. I think it's in big part because of his fear of repeating losing a close one.
He REALLY doesn't want to even acknowledge death.
Here Raph seemed to be getting through to Leo-
-but the moment he mentions possibility of his family dying?
Nope, time to deflect, joke and feign ignorance.
Leo's aware that death is a big part of being a responsible hero and that's why he'd rather goof off with his brothers and not train.
Because obviously when you ignore something it just dissapears, right? So if they ignore severity of certain situations and possibility of dying it won't happen, right?
If they don't treat it seriously they'll be fine! Totally!
Then Raph shields Leo from the Krang and sends him away.
And it's as if Karai's death stared right in his eyes.
So Leo picks up the slack of leadership in order to save Raph. He behaves carelessly during this time but can you really blame him, he desperately wants to save his brother, to stop yet another family member from death that he is so scared of.
He still tries to be positive and nonchalant, that "pfff obvioulsy everything will turn out alright!" but at the end of the day, it's not that simple.
Casey's speech had hard time to really hit Leo, he's still avoiding confronting resposibility, literally and metaphorically turning away from it. But the moment Casey says Leo's whole family died?
Now that made an impact.
And every time his family is in terrible danger he looks absolutely terrified and basically every time Leo has to be dragged away to not just return and try to save them again.
And when there's nobody to drag him away?
First thing he does is sacrifice himself. Because I don't think Leo is scared of his own death, or at least he is not as scared of him dying as his family. He'd rather give away his life than live through another grief.
Obviously I'm not sayin that the rest of the fam isn't terrified of close ones dying. But while they seem less aware (Mikey) and/or more ready for the possibility (Raph)...
Leo's wholly aware but he'd rather not be and ignore his fears until he can't anymore.
I have no excuses other then I'm on a slight role right now
Reblog art guys. Seriously.
reblog only if you’ve received less than 1000 boops! we can all get each other to “max”
The secret wish is to write a fanfic that someone loves so much they make fan art of it, or to create a drawing that someone creates an entire fic based off of it.
Rise Turtles at a Rave: Headcanons
yes, yes, i know, i have requests to get to ! they will be done when i get them done, i prommy <3 right now i am filled with THOUGHTS.
i was thinking about how i missed going to raves so i made a playlist, then my rottmnt rotten brain told me "tee hee, what if you went to new york for a rave fest or something" and you know, immediate connection to the turtles because of nyc. so here we are.
there are some nsfw bullet points which is why i will post this on this blog. remember i always write the turtles as adults ! in this they should all be envisioned 21 and over.
cw: substance use, sexual advances under the influence (consensual)
he would be the one to have heard of a rave at a local venue, sizeable enough like a House Of Blues but local, you know ? otherwise, he's alright with stadium shows as long as it's not too crowded.
he's totally up for the kind of commercial rave that the venue hosts monthly or something.
he invites you because he doesn't want to go alone.
despite popular belief that he goes out a lot, he doesn't go to many raves, hence not wanting to go alone.
leo would dress in a flashy jumpsuit if you let him.
if you don't (he might wear it anyway or) he'd wear a sparkling skintight mesh longsleeve and holographic short shorts. you're not gonna stop him from being flamboyant.
he likes it when you wear techwear, especially those tight cargo pants that make your ass look so fine.
he WILL be wearing makeup highlighting his red stripes, maybe some body paint on his arm and thigh stripes.
he wouldn't do your makeup, his experience is limited and he wouldn't want to ruin your handsome face.
he will stay sober ! if you're not or you don't plan to be, he'll watch over you.
he'll give you lots of water, doesn't matter if you need it or not.
leo dances a lot, he brings two light up batons to the raves the two of you go to to wave and twist around, a lot like his swords.
sometimes he brings hula hoops though, just for funzies.
his favourite genre is that popular edm or plur, like calvin harris, martin garrix, zedd, or avicii, but he's open to most edm (except for what donnie and mikey's into, eugh).
if the venue doors open at six pm, the two of you would be waiting fourth or fifth in line for entry.
you guys would most likely leave between midnight or 1 am (likely when it ends), leo has a lot of rave stamina for being sober.
like, you barely sit down for five minutes after an hour and a half of dancing (you're sober, in this case) and he asks if you want to get up and dance again.
after you guys leave you order a pizza and hang out in leo's room after a nice shower.
sleeping over with him after a rave always makes you happy.
there's usually no more energy left in you for anything other than cuddling if you're sober.
and regardless if you express consent that leo could do whatever he wanted to you while you're under the influence of something, he doesn't want to.
he will squeeze your ass while cuddling though. that's a given.
he is not a raver.
but he worries about your safety way too much not to let you go by yourself if you didn't feel like inviting anyone else to go with you.
will wait with you by the venue door and wrap an arm around you for comfort (his, not necessarily yours).
or squeeze your hand to stay close to you if it's a warehouse rave or anything of the like.
ironic, he feels you are safest attending outdoor rave festivals because of the open air and the freedom of space to use his ninpo in case he loses you.
he's such a worrywart !!
usually he will wear black so he's inconspicuous.
you do some makeup on him and he melts at that because it's you.
will strongly discourage you from drinking, smoking, or using any substances but if you know how to handle yourself he will watch over you like a hawk.
he always stays sober at raves. drinking is a thing he does at home, with family. like during movie night. not surrounded by a bunch of strangers.
he will definitely keep water on hand for you, leaning against the wall or barricade until mind raph tells him "go ! give them water now ! they are extremely dehydrated ! go ! before they pass out !"
you guys will leave at eleven pm max. no matter what time you guys got there.
unless it's a rave festival and you two arrived sometime while the sun was up, then you guys might leave at eight or nine pm.
he'll take you back to your place even if you ask to stay with him in the lair.
he'd let you clean up and then cuddles would ensue !! because you're tired !!
but not before you drink water. you need to stay hydrated.
like leo, he would never try anything with you while you're tripping, high, drunk, or anything. he prefers sex when you're fully present.
but the morning sex ?
it's insane.
he'd be holding you against him, rutting into you from behind– it's because you're so soft against him, you trust him so much. you're his.
he loves keeping you safe. as much as he doesn't like raves, he loves you and that's all that matters to him.
of course, that morning sex is only if you have no hangover or lingering effects from anything.
then he would make you a breakfast sandwich ! it's not much but it would hold you down for lunch.
donnie almost always invites you.
sometimes when you invite him he says "i know the dj mixing for that one, their stuff is kind of mediocre compared to my mutual from soho opening for a show on long island–" or something along those lines.
so you know donnie's active in the new york rave scene.
he'd dress in fishnet tops, leather bondage gear (like collars, harnesses, garters), tripp pants, and new rock shoes.
that's only if he's not rocking his own genius built apparel (which of course he would).
occasionally he'd look at your outfit before you leave and say "are you opting for style or comfort ?" (it's meant to be playfully judgemental, but a genuine question on his part)
he secretly likes when you wear very little clothing to raves.
omigosh especially if there's satin and lace, oh ! he's weak in the knees if you wear bondage gear.
the two of you do each other's makeup.
he likes it when you sit on his lap to do it, with your thighs all warm against his.
donnie would smoke weed or eat edibles at raves, or he'd limit himself to a patch or two of acid if he knows what to expect from the set so he's sure he'll have a good trip (he never mixes substances for obvious reasons).
he has a tech gauntlet for you to wear at raves for when you're both tripping and separate from one another, just in case.
but that's never the case, you're all up on each other while the hard bass ripples around you.
your gauntlets give you periodic reminders to hydrate, take breaks if needed.
breaks ? what breaks ? you guys are high as/tripping balls.
donnie actually turned his old techbo into a rave baton, he only twirls it when he's sober, though.
he loves dubstep, french house, techno, drum and bass, and hardstyle !! but his favourite raves to bring you along for are the latter three (he likes the way you dance when the bass is booming through the ground)
depending on the rave, you and donnie will leave at sunrise or a couple days since it started.
i like to think donnie's the first to have moved out of the lair, especially with his eclectic lifestyle (owning a tech company, a fashion brand, being active in the ny rave scene, and more probably).
so the two of you head back to his apartment and depending if you're still high, things get spicy.
before becoming rave partners, donnie made you a checklist to check things off and sign an agreement in case you guys do things together when you're not sober, like go out of the country somehow or have sex– irresponsible things with possible consequences.
you checked every possible thing off because you trust him that much holy shit-
making out with him while you're sweaty and gross after a rave does put him off a little bit, so shower sex it is !
it's hot, it's messy, but does he love it when he holds you up against the wall by your thighs, letting you take what he could give you.
and you look so pretty to him, tears running down your face as you mewl his name, it strikes that possessive part of him just right.
after that steaming shower and the both of you are clean, it's definitely cuddle time. but then donnie makes sure the two of you hydrate before knocking out, entangling limbs upon his bed.
the morning (or afternoon) after he would most definitely order breakfast because there is no way either of you are getting up to cook after the amazing experience you two had.
unlike donnie, mikey isn't pretentious about his involvement in the rave scene.
he loves it, adores it, even.
anything you try to invite him to ? he already planned to take you with him.
you're his rave buddy ! he can't go to a rave without you ! or donnie, for that matter.
sometimes he misses out on a rave because he knows donnie's gonna be there and he really wishes it would be just the two of you.
but new york is a big city, sometimes there's two raves going at the same time and mikey could reach an agreement with donnie not to cross paths.
what donnie doesn't know, is the raves in the hidden city.
they could last weeks with the right mystic charms, but mikey never wants to subject you to substances as potent as mystic speed.
he wants to make sure your raving experience is safe and fun !
he usually wears techwear with uv orange accents, they look super cool under blacklight.
mikey could never keep his hands off you if you're wearing sleeved fingerless gloves and miniskirts, he also likes it when you wear tiny tops because it's easier access.
he loves when you do his makeup, but he doesn't like it too flashy, it clashes with his techwear look.
he prefers watching you do your makeup over doing it for you because your pretty hands are at work.
now, mikey never asked donnie to make him a safety gauntlet too, but donnie worries for his little brother– he gets a little hardcore at raves.
sometimes you're worried enough to stay sober to watch over mikey, even if the gauntlet does the job for you.
but at the raves you go to, sometimes substances are a must if you want to keep going.
mikey is the most flexible for personal rave lights, but his favourites are light up nunchaku and fibre optic whips.
he doesn't necessarily have a favourite genre of rave music, but he goes the hardest when the dj is slavic or has slavic influences.
usually when you go to raves with mikey, the minimum amount of time you guys spend is at least seventy-two hours (unless you as an individual can't go any more than one night).
you're usually the first one to want to leave, if mikey wants to leave that means he's having a bad trip– you do everything in your power to keep the good vibes flowing.
if you two leave with fully good vibes of your own volition, it's likely you guys will go back to your place.
no shower, just crashing on your bed after peeling off uncomfortable or strappy clothes that would dig into your skin if you slept in them.
but if you and mikey are still peak tripping, a few hickeys and a little bondage wouldn't hurt.
before you guys started raving together, there was clear communication that you trusted what the other would do while under the influence.
expressing clear consent to each other sober before taking anything was the best thing you have ever done... because mikey is so good.
really. good.
so good, in fact, you feel it the morning after, cuddled up against him and feeling gross (not in a bad, mentally taxed way), but your heart is so full.
somehow mikey wakes fully rested and ready to make you breakfast while you drag your aching body into the shower.
the two of you smell like sweat, burned plastic, and skunk weed. a shower is NECESSARY.
mikey takes your aftercare to the next level, trying to make it last as long as the rave did.
i hope you enjoyed reading this !! i surely enjoyed writing it :3 i miss raves, i wish i could go to one soon x/
tee hee look at them !!!
Get that traction gummy!
Villain Rise Mikey Thoughts: Part One
i have already written so much for this one, this is part one of my storyline for a villain mikey au !! i genuinely just spewed thoughts out here, i will continue with a part two eventually <3
i'm making up my own villain mikey as i go because i am craving.
the abandoned at birth trope is a little overdone imo, i love it when i read it for the other turtles but mikey deserves something unique
he felt a little different compared to his brothers, not because he was the youngest... he just felt different.
three year old mikey genuinely didn't want to hurt his brothers, not after he practically launched raph at high speeds toward a wall trying to get a jupiter jim toy out of his hand.
he ran away after that, guilt eating at him for some time until he forgot, then he found the hidden city.
he finds baron draxum and realises he's his other dad, which made the screws already loose in his head rattle a little bit.
draxum trains mikey in the mystic arts safely so that he doesn't hurt himself, which was very loving and tender on his part.
mikey deserved an attentive father, that was something draxum realised when mikey told him what he could remember about splinter.
even though mikey was raised in a decent environment, draxum still wanted to destroy the human race and that warped mikey's thoughts and actions a little bit.
this especially affected his views on getting what he wanted whenever he did, he definitely is a youngest child at heart.
he would start being a delinquent in the hidden city, running away from the police if they caught him loitering or tagging places.
then he moved on to stealing.
coins, unicorns, jewellery, mystic trinkets, you name it.
he used his mystic portals to steal and hoard like a dragon.
while draxum was proud, he created mikey for something bigger than petty thievery, mikey was destined for something greater.
draxum told eleven year old mikey about going back topside, and he did just that, enduring homelessness for a brief period of time before getting a small apartment from all the money he pickpocketed in the financial district of manhattan.
he hated being among humans, seeing their lives as minuscule and pointless– but he never let it show, he always had the mask of a sweetheart.
he witnessed his first murder and for the first time in a while, he wasn't bored.
mikey wondered about upping the ante to his criminal lifestyle, he was growing bored of stealing and he completed his father's training, what kind of human could defend against him ?
he only started with nobodies, people who would be forgotten within a week.
it got his blood pumping, adrenaline coursing through his veins. he liked it.
but killing "undesirables" meant little to no money, and mikey has to pay rent. he lives in the bronx after all.
villain mikey likes the thrill of the hunt, he started hunting down drunk people after they leave the bar, sometimes even sober ones just getting off a late shift at work.
it was when he crossed paths with yokai capturing humans that he found interest in keeping one as a pet.
he moves to brooklyn at thirteen to go back to tagging graffiti, sometimes in the oddest of places.
that was around the time his brothers interrupted draxum's experiment and released the oozequitos to new york.
he captured a large sum of oozequitos to give back to his dad, but there were still others that decided to breed and persist.
mikey has no real motive for what he's doing, he's doing what his father asked of him and he wants to appease him, but he regularly has his doubts.
then when draxum teams up with the foot clan, that's when he really questions his dad, if the dark armour is worth all the risks he's taking.
mikey meets big mama and realises she's behind the human trafficking, then asks her if he could have a pet human of his own.
she scoffs and tells him to capture one himself, no kin of draxum should get meddled with her business (after all that happened with the other turtles, if mikey's the one with draxum she's not taking any chances for a temper tantrum)
even though villain mikey's a spoiled brat, he also recognises that if he wants a job done right, he has to do it himself.
mikey moves back to the hidden city to nurse draxum back to health after the dark armour drained his life force.
he finally comes across his brothers again and thinks they're amateur idiots.
he's a bit of a bastard, ignoring his brothers and continuing to do what he does for fun (graffiti, stealing, offing innocents).
a couple years pass and the krang invasion happens.
he put aside his differences with his brothers just for this, he still cares because these are the turtles he was created with, even though their dad is kind of whack compared to draxum (mikey really does love his dad).
mikey suddenly unlocks his ninpo and he's the greatest mystic warrior of his timeline, junior finds it weird he's not with his brothers.
leo explains to junior mikey's not one of them despite his assistance, he's not family.
even though mikey physically turned out fine post-krang, it sickened him seeing his brothers losing to some pesky alien creatures.
the way the krang biomatter clung onto raph, leo, and donnie pissed him off.
it unlocked something wrathful and hideous within him, wiping out the krang and sending their tech back to the prison dimension.
it was a miracle when his three brothers snapped out of their krang possession and they snapped him out of the mystic altered state he was in, golden-eyed and chains lifting the technodrome back into the prison dimension.
even though villain mikey is a lot more skilled in his mystic abilities from years of training under draxum, it took a lot out of him to make a portal that big.
he passed out and his brothers, casey, april, and splinter were beside him when he woke up, but he was so annoyed.
he didn't want to wake up to these assholes.
mikey could barely walk, but floating out meant overexerting himself, so pushing everyone out of the way to get back to draxum it is.
post-krang, he suffers a lot of paranoia and anxiety, almost too much to the point where he chains up draxum when accidentally going into the mystic state.
draxum tells him to go to the market, get some herbs to calm down.
he accidentally comes across a dispensary in the market, getting a few strains and asking if he could have it in the form of tea, since he sees a few yokai smoking the herbs.
he's told he could bake them, that's when he gets interested in baking.
