I’m Too Tired To Write A Thoughtful Description But Splinter Loves All Of His Kids So Much You Guys

Part 7!

This concludes the "everything is falling apart" episode. Time for time travel haha~

Now I can finally get my ton of duct tape and start wrapping not only the future but also the past in it.

Also!

I know some of you are reading this comic without ever having seen Rise. Now, to understand the future plot, I recommend you watch the Rise of the tmnt movie (on Netflix) or at least read its plot on wikipedia haha. Seriously. You don't have to watch the whole show, just the movie, it takes about an hour and the context from the comic will be enough to understand what's going on there:)

Part 1 Next episode

So I headcanon that post-rottmnt-movie Leo's a part time cane user like me!

And I also headcanon that:

Donnie will absolutely go ham on designing a tactical cane for him.

[ Item Key/Explanations ] + [ Extra Text/Overlays Off ] below the cut

Key (damn I hope this image makes some sense and its not too messy):

The cane itself is used as a mobility aid and can assist in combat if needed in a pinch. edit: *note, for practicality, these are mainly reserved for situations where Leo does not have other options. Most of the time, it is a normal cane :)

Handle of the cane twists off and with and can switch into a blade

A panel with the MAD DOGS symbol pops out - this can holographically project messages and be used for communication

Bottom part of the cane can turn into a stun gun. AKA: Shocky shocky electric violence <- he'd use this the most

It can also fold/form out into a grappling hook shape — hold down a specific button and aim it like a grappling gun!

Handle can form into a sharper, hooked shape w/ a harder exterior

Twists the handle end a different direction and you get a glass breaking tool

Yes, you can use this cane design for your fanfics/fanart/AUs/etc. (no pr0sh;p content please) but please please please credit me!

TYSM for all the support on my first Leo cane post :)!!

Assorted bits/trivia/propaganda: • Favorite volume cover poll can be found here, and favorite inner volume cover poll can be found here. • Chapter 47's art is Kaiu Shirai's favorite color chapter cover art per the "Tracks to the Neverland" exhibition book interview (from December 2020): "Amazingly drawn upper arms (and legs!) Everyone is drawn differently for their different ages! I adore the happy smiles of a mother and her daughters. It's a color page published on One Piece's 20th anniversary, so let me applaud the use of the straw hats and One Piece theme. I love it. Only Emma's hat is fringed and that's the best!" • Chapter 75's art is Demizu's fifth favorite color chapter cover art per the exhibition interview: "The theme was graduation, and I had a lot of trouble deciding the color of the clothes, which left a lasting impression on me. The color scheme is a bit mismatched thanks to the combination of bright colors like foreign uniforms and cherry blossoms, but I think I turned out beautifully." • Chapter 119 was the inspiration for the "The Guiding Star" short story originally published in Shounen Jump GIGA 2019 Summer Volumes 1–3 and eventually reprinted in the fourth light novel, "Films of Memories." (First part can be found here, translated by @presumenothing.) • I included the original spread of chapter 153 in WSJ because the "he is always alone" line kills me. This is also Shirai's fifth favorite color chapter cover art per the exhibition interview: "God. Representing Norman’s mental landscape like this..? I want to take a peek inside Demizu-sensei’s brain! The expression on Norman’s face, a burnt land's grief, frailty; Emma and Ray appearing there. It hit me so hard that I used the metaphor for the main story as well. I love it!" • Chapter 181 propaganda by @tutubola and some tag ramblings:

"i really like this actually. ray carrying one of the younger kids? norman w rolled up pants? the vulnerability???? all of them w rolled up pants/skirts actually. gilda looks so cute. and look at sherry she's so obsessed w norman it's so cute. i would make this more elaborate but i cant think rn be back in 46-79 business days (#it's the more-than-earned casualness of it all combined with it being one of those pictures you can hear the sound of #the soft ebb and flow of the waves and cry of the seagulls #with the warmth emanating from this scene of this family that against all odds was able to overturn destiny #and come out together just as close as not more so than where we started with them in the very first chapter #enhanced by the gentle hues of the setting sun to parallel the end of their long and hard-fought journey #and the warm air that's carried by an equally gentle sea breeze~ #shoutout specifically to seeing Anna‚ Don‚ Norman‚ and Ray naturally falling into their elder sibling roles #showcasing one of the fundamental cores of this series #healingly wholesome)

It is done! So sorry for the hefty info-dump. I usually hate those methods in storytelling but it is sort of Dee/Omega's MO. I at least tried to keep it somewhat visually stimulating as we dive deeper into where this plot is leading. Made this post a little longer as thanks for all of you being so patient!

BEGINNING || PREVIOUS || NEXT (SOON) MASTER POST

Also, I don't know computers AT ALL. Hopefully Omega's list in the first page is impressive but I honestly don't know. I just draw haha!

Elden Ring fan art by Victor Garcia

Unturtled turtle tots!! I feel like Leo’s trans shell would definitely crack at Mulan and he would impulsively cut his hair (tc*st dni i will bust your spine)

Redraw of one of my favorite manga panels!

Note: Tumblr was acting weird, so I had to delete my old account and create a new blog under the same name. I'll be reposting a couple of my old artworks here (including this piece)!
