Just more of my ROTTMNT OC because I miss him 🫰
FINALLY DONE WITH CHAPTER 2 !!
Sorry that took so long T T;
[first]/[current]/[next– coming eventually!]
Late for school!!
(Click for better quality :)
I love @somerandomdudelmao 's AUs and the Tiny Tello (Pancake) arc is taking over my brain
WELCOME!! To my Rise AU, affectionately dubbed the Double Pendulum AU!!
I'm hoping to use this series as a way to practice art and storytelling, but also to get a lot of the funky ideas I've had floating in my head out. LMK what y'all think!!
I've got some big plans for this one so I hope you'll stick around for the journey :))
[first]/[next]
Like... how the hell do you respond to your mentor/father figure opening up and telling you about how the alien invasion began with him goofing around and then eventually leading to the death of his brothers, father, friends, and like the entire world being destroyed/colonized... 😬
Yeah... me too, Casey... Cowabummer...
Thoughts on Time Skip in Rise Movie
Recently, it was revealed that the Rise movie takes place two years after the finale. I don’t have a full opinion until the movie is available but so far I don’t like the time skip. I was really hoping the movie would take place a few months later so we can see how Cassandra is getting along with the group, Draxum’s growing relationship with Splinter and the Turtles, and the Turtles handling their new power up. I’m nervous that the time jump will skip over that development. That’s what I was most hoping for from the movie.
I’m still excited for the movie and hope the time skip has a purpose.
Do You Think (Future) Casey Jones is Cassandra’s Kid?
It’s been revealed that the mysterious stranger from the future will be a male Casey Jones, and ever since I’ve been wondering how this will be incorporated into the story when Rise already has Cassandra/FR. There has been talk that the creators were retconning the reveal, but there was a recent that said otherwise. So, I’m wondering if future Casey is Cassandra’s son (hopefully with April; I’ve shipped them for a while) but she passed away and Leo named him after her. I can’t really think of another reason why he is named Casey other than that. If any of you have other theories, lmk. I like discussing with other fans.

Rise Donnie Headcanon
When Donnie first met April, he had a big crush on her, but it went away as they grew closer as friends.
I've had this feeling that Donnie had a small crush on April when they first met. At first, I kind of shipped them but I really love the idea of April being a lesbian and dating Casey (once April turns 18). Plus, I'm not a fan of the age difference between Donnie and her. I know it's only a two year difference, but a 16 year old and 14 year old have different mind sets.
I adore their friendship though.
What Are Your LGBTQ+ Headcanons for Any of the Characters?
I’ve got this idea because I’m in a meeting about learning the community and terms. I wanted to do this during Pride month, but forgot.
Any versions you can think of.
Here are mine:
2003 Version:
Leo: Gay
Donnie: Pansexual
Raph: Straight or Bisexual
Mikey: Straight, but is down to do drag for fun. 😁
Usagi: Bisexual
Leatherhead: Gay
2012 Version:
Leo: Demisexual
Donnie: Straight
Raph: Straight
Mikey: Pansexual
Karai: Bisexual
Shini: Bisexual
Tiger Claw: Gay
Bebop: Gay
Rocksteady: Pansexual
Usagi: Bisexual
Rise Version:
Leo: Gay
Donnie: Asexual & Genderqueer
Raph: Straight
Michelangelo: Pansexual
April: Lesbian
Casey: Lesbian
Splinter: Bisexual
Draxum: Gay

My baby, my baby
You're my baby, say it to me
Baby, my baby
Tell your baby that I'm your baby
Words take on different meanings in different contexts.
I took the idea from @mrabubu ‘s drawing
I hope like you ❤️🩹
Taking care of little Casey is a hard work…
This dinamic is my favorite. In a dangerous, broken and constantly threatened world taking care of a child is very difficult…
See you later

Some little facts for Last brother standing!
If you have any questions, the ask box is open!
Leo is trapped in the prison dimension, he stays separated from his brothers for a few months, but for him it’s been years, even if he hasn’t technically aged.
Mikey had successfully opened the portal, but kraang prime got to Leo first and Mikey couldn’t keep it open. He only had Raph helping him as donnie didn’t land on the island.
Once Mikey and Donnie had been knocked off by prime, raph managed to grab Mikey, but donnie slipped out of raphs grasp before they landed and fell into the river.
Raph fell into a coma as a result of his kraang infection.
Donnie is missing for three months after the invasion. Having been unconscious and swept away in the river
Mikey’s leg had broken when they landed on the island, unfortunately it got infected and they had to amputate.
Draxum built Mikey’s prosthetic, but once donnie is reunited he of course made upgrades.
Mikey wears his brothers masks on his wrists and prosthetic. He try’s to have hope that leo is still alive, he still is trying to get him home.

Rise April Challenge 21: Jokes
Prev - Next - Masterpost Ao3 Link: Here
Leo had a sly smile as he approached Casey from behind, who was sitting on the couch with Mikey watching TV.
“Hey, man.” He said, leaning over and wrapping his arm around Jr. The time traveler looked up with a bright smile.
“Hi Leonardo. How are you?”
“Oh, I’m wonderful, my friend.” Leo said, eyes mischievous. “Say, I was wondering, what do you call a baby butterfly with whiskers?”
Casey tilted his head in confusion, while Mikey's eyes widened, and he sat up straight. A look of fear on his face.
“Leo don’t-”
“A cat-erpillar.”
Mikey fell back and groaned in annoyance, while Leo erupted with laughter. “Oh, that was a good one.” Leo brushed away a tear.
“But... caterpillars don't have whiskers.”
The two brothers stared at Casey for a moment, and Casey just stared back. Then his eyes went wide with realization.
“Oh, because cats have whiskers, and caterpillar starts with ‘cat.’ Cat-erpillar.” He started chuckling and giggling. “I get it! That's pretty funny sensei.”
Leo’s eyes went wide, and his face fell with shock. Then he lit up like a sunrise. Mikey saw this and began to wave his arms around in a panic.
“Leo, wait-”
“Oh, this is going to be fun!”
“No, it won’t! Leo, please-”
-
The next time they were eating pizza with the family. Leo smiled and bumped Casey’s shoulder with his own.
“Hey, kid.” He said and Casey looked up. “I saw this really cool chimney for sale and was thinking about buying it.” Jr furrowed his brow, while everyone else went stiff with concealed panic.
“Why would you want to buy a chimney? We live underground.” Leo waved his hands dismissively.
“Not important to the story. I thought it was going to cost a lot it turns out it was-”
“Nardo, please!”
“-on the house.”
The table erupted in groans and there was a bang as Raph dropped his head to the table. Casey just nodded at his master's words.
“Well, that was nice of them.” He turned and took another bite of pizza, then stopped mid chew a look of deep thought on his face. Then, he spit out the bite as he started to laugh.
“OH! On the house! Because roofs are on top of houses.”
“Ah, there you go.” Leo said, slapping Casey on the back. “See guys, he gets it!”
“This is going to be a thing, isn’t it?” Donnie asked, unenthusiastically and already knowing the answer. Leo just smirked back.
“Of course, it is.”
-
Leo and junior were sitting by themselves on a rooftop, when Leo turned to his friend.
“You know, I used to have this friend with kind of messed up feet.”
“Really?” Casey asked, turning to face him.
“Yeah,” Leo said, leaning back. “He would always stand super crooked and would always have to keep rocking back and forth to keep standing up.” Casey's face pinched in sympathy at the thought.
“Did it hurt him?”
“Naw, it was mostly just annoying or uncomfortable. Eventually, his doctor recommended that he at these new orthopedic shoes, and he kept saying that they weren't for him, but he did end up getting them and now he...”
Leo looks Casey straight in the eyes as he finishes his sentence, looking like the cat who had caught the canary. “...stands corrected.”
Casey just smiled back at the smug face.
“That's good for them. I'm happy they found something that works.”
Silence. Then-
“Wait a sec! Mater Leonardo-”
“HAHAHHAHHA!”
-
“Casey!” Leo called, and Jr quickly bolted over worried.
“Leonardo, what is it?” He found him standing by the closed bathroom door. Leo looked over and smiled.
“I need your help.” The turtle said, stepping back. “The door is jammed.”
And, indeed, sitting on the door handle was a jar of jam.
“Ok, I’ll try and open it” Casey said politely, walking over and picking up the jar. He was already pushing down on the handle before he looked at the label on the jar and froze.
Leo burst out laughing and nearly fell over, gasping and bending over with his arms wrapped around his stomach. Casey just furrowed his brow in confusion, mouthing the words over. Then he straightened up, looked at the laughing turtle and began to giggle himself.
“I don't think that was as a good as the others.” he said, still chuckling.
“Oh, come on! That was a great one!” Leo said, taking the jar from Casey and leaving to return it to the kitchen.
-
“Hey, Leo?” Casey asked from his seat in the back of the tank.
The slidder smiled at the use of the nickname, instead of “sensei,” or “master.” It was nice that the kid was starting to relax around him.
“What up, Jr?” He responded and looked back. The kid was shifting back and forth anxiously. He then shyly looked up and cleared his throat.
“What do you call a dog that can do magic?”
The rest of the tank froze and stared in shock at the time traveler. Was he about to...
“I don’t know,” Leo said casually, not really taking in the question.
“A Labra-cadavrador.”
Leo’s head finally caught up to the conversation and his eyes went wide.
“Did he just...?” Mikey asked.
“No,” Donnie said. “He couldn’t have.”
Before the shocked discussion could go any further, Leo launched himself out of seat and tackled the human boy with a hug, laughing and squishing the boy tight.
“That was so good, kid!” He cried joy overwhelming him at the thought that Casey could relax enough for him to joke like that. The kid trusted him, the kid was joking! Leo had never been prouder.
“You deserve around of a-paws for that one.” The slidder said, still hugging the kid tight. A round of groans echoed in the car. “Don’t listen to them, Casey. That joke was paw-some!”
“Stop it! No more!”
“Sorry, Mikey,” Casey said, rubbing the back of his head from his spot in Leo’s arms. “Can you, uh, fur-give me?”
“Donnie, open the window. I’m jumping out.”
“Wait, no! I really am sorry! I’ll stop!”
“Would you care if I joined you, Angelo?”
“WAIT! NO, SIRS-”
