Danny Phantom, The Show:
geeky kid gets super powers from his parents' weird inventions! now he has to fight a rogue gallery of ghosts... but uh-oh! he still has to keep his grades up, deal with his embarrassing parents, and navigate girl troubles! rap theme song!
Danny Phantom, the Fandom, After 19 Years of Fermentation:
a child dies. but not quite. the inherent tension between life and death. the obsession of the dead for faded remnants of the living. warped green shadows on the walls of a dark laboratory. having to hide your true nature from those who should be your greatest allies. the fear of the monster you could become if you let yourself. being a ghost as a metaphor for the trans experience. a cold breath on the back of your neck in the dead of the night. rap theme song!

”you can just make an oc” you dont understand anything. the character needs to mutate naturally until unrecognizable. like all evolutionary processes it takes time. you can’t force it or it doesn’t take. you must endure weird ooc thematically discordant versions of a guy until they bud off into beautiful new life. have patience
Update on the beefy boi! He’s rooted in pretty well so there’s little chance of losing any soil off the sides, and the purple/white color combo is starting to pop up!
I like sharing small fun things I’ve seen or made like a penguin with cool lil rocks XD
here’s some funky lil planters I set up at the nursery today!
Everyone freaking out over the news that the movie wasn’t actually two years after the finale and only two months instead.
Meanwhile I’m over here breathing a sigh of relief that my boy Leo wasn’t acting up like that for a full two years. Something about that just did not sound right—like he never wanted to be leader I get why he’d act like that to try and get Splinter to rescind his decision, but I don’t think he’d be that much of a little shit for that long—like god help Raph.
But everyone freaking over them being so young…April is in college y’all. She had her bday at the start of the show so the time in between the start of the show and the fight with Shredder must be over the course of a couple years. They’re not 13, 14, 16.
At least that’s what makes the most sense to me idk.
Trying to add horror to a story when my style is literal babyfication is a fresh level of hell sometimes (◞‸◟)
i love you mirror versions i love you possession i love you cloning i love you simulacrums i love you shadow selves i love you digital copies of a mind i love you alternate timeline versions i love you tropes that play with identity and what it means to be a certain person
WE’VE BEEN CURSED WITH THIS KNOWLEDGE BUT ITS SO CUTE TOO XD
My brother just hit me with this and now you get to suffer with me.
Mk's name is just My Kid. Caus pigsy would totally be unimaginative and just go with the easy option.
Random kid pops up? My kid.
He's Mk's dad and Mk's his kid.
I love to draw characters cuddling each other.🥺🥺
Hello please reblog this if you’re okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better
Hi just thinking about Splinter who went from a dashing internationally loved superstar to a hideous mutant who has to raise four rowdy boys alone in hiding while struggling with latent trauma from his mom abandoning him, cutting himself off from his family, and getting betrayed by the love of his life. Thinking about how him “letting himself go” wasn’t just written for jokes but from a place of unspoken depression. Thinking about how he never shared any of this with his boys and never projected his trauma onto them but his distance led to them being starved for affection. Thinking about how much they ADORE him even when he’s blatantly neglectful, insinuating that he does pay attention when it matters. And don’t get me started on his movies dubbing his accent over or how separated he became from his own culture, leading to parallels to the Asian immigrant experience. He’s a flawed parent. He’s an okay sensei. He’s a loving father. He’s a badass family man. ROTTMNT really looked at the boring one dimensional mentor with culturally insensitive stereotypes in past iterations and went nah we can do better.
And then they made us all cry.
