Caught // TMNT x Reader.
Imagine stumbling into the turtle’s lives by pure accident, falling from a fire escape and landing right into their arms. They’re expecting you to be shocked or scared or something…but you’re barely even phased at the sight of the giant turtles standing in front of you.
Why?
“Well, I’ve seen at least one of you over the years…like, a lot.”
Leonardo is stunned.
Stupidly, obviously stunned. Always so proud of his ninja training, he takes great pleasure in being the “unseen.” Just a shadow in a darkened alley, a swift blur in the corner of a stranger’s eye, a stolen sight that one might brush away as mere imagination and nothing more. So knowing that you’ve caught them numerous times is, well, a little embarrassing for him.
Okay, it’s more like a lot.
“Who have you seen?” He asks quietly.
“Well,” you said as you carefully gathered the books and papers that had spilled from your bag, “I’m actually pretty sure it was you. I’ve seen you running over the rooftops a lot and I remember your swords.”
And now it was just plain humiliating. Raph scoffed in utter delight, already coming up with a million and one smug remarks to make, and he could see Donnie and Mikey sharing smiles. All the times he’d scolded his brothers about being more careful, warning them to avoid being seen, were now coming back to haunt him. Oh, he was never going to hear the end of this, he just knew it! They would be bringing this up for years and years.
Leonardo looked away from his brothers and back towards you, watching as you carefully inspected your phone for chips and cracks.
“If it’s damaged, I can fix that,” Donnie said helpfully.
“I think it’s okay…” you replied, “But thank you. And thanks for catching me before I, you know, fell to my death.”
“Uh…anytime.” Leonardo replied, his brain feeling fuzzy from the embarrassment and confusion.
“See you guys around.”
And just like that you were gone, walking off into the city and leaving Leonardo standing with his brothers. At once the teasing he’d already been expecting started up, Raph ragging on him and the other two only joyfully encouraging him, but for once…he didn’t care. Not even when Don joked about telling Splinter, not when Raph told him he ought to train more. Instead he watched you walk away and wondered when he might see you again.
Perhaps next time he was running across the rooftops, he’d stop and say hello…
Donatello isn’t really too surprised.
Statistically speaking, a good number of New Yorkers have seen that turtles from time to time. After all, they’ve been living in the city for all of their twenty-two years and have been active on the surface for eight of those now. There are quite a few humans out there who’ve caught a look at them, leading to stories of some sort of man-eating turtle cryptid living in the city waterways…there are some interesting sites out there.
But math doesn’t lie and you’re not the only one who has seen them…just one of the few who has gotten to actually meet them.
“Really?” Mikey piped up.
“Yeah,” you replied with a shrug. “But it’s not really a big deal or anything. I mean, this is New York City after all. I’d honestly be a lot more surprised if there weren’t giant turtles running around here at night.”
“How many times have you seen us?” Leonardo questioned, his blue eyes glancing sharply at his brothers.
“A lot of times through the years. Running around on the rooftops, getting into a few fights with gang bangers…actually, you know, I think I’ve seen him more then the rest of you.”
You had pointed right at Donatello when you made that little comment and already he could feel Leonardo’s glare settle on the back of his shell. He wondered if his elder brother would care too much about his argument for statistics…probably not! But you were smiling a little, brushing the dirt off of the Dittos that covered your black dress.
“And…you’re cool with that?” Donnie asked.
“Yup.”
“Then…so are we! Right, guys?”
His brothers chimed in, agreeing with the sentiment. And with that, you were off, grabbing your button-covered bag and walking away to catch your bus.
“See you around…?”
“Uh, Donnie. My name’s Donnie.”
“Later, Donnie.”
Forgetting about the impending doom that loomed over him (he could already hear Leonardo’s scolding and feel that sting in his muscles from Master Splinter’s punishment, which was sure to be brutal and terribly clever), Donatello grinned to himself as you vanished into the city…but he was certain that he would see you again.
And maybe you wouldn’t mind that at all…
Michelangelo is curious.
You saw them? For years? And you didn’t freak out or anything? That was rare for humans. Even compassionate people like April got a little freaked and, yeah, he couldn’t really blame anyone for screaming…still hurt though. They were no monsters, even if some people thought otherwise (Donnie had shown them those cryptid sites and he hadn’t liked that much). He’d been expecting screaming or fainting or something…
And yet here you were, cool as a cucumber!
“Just one of us?” Donatello asked, clearly eager for answers. “Do you know which one?”
“Oh…I dunno…” you murmured, running a hand through your hair as you thought it over. “He’s an artist.”
At once Michelangelo felt his Leo and Don glaring at him and Raph, both who claimed that honorable role as artists. The two brothers shared a guilty glance, each of them wondering who had earned himself one of Leonardo’s long lectures.
“I’ve seen him spray painting these gorgeous pieces! There’s these blue angel wings and this neon melting heart by the place I work-”
“Mikey!” Leonardo snapped, Don slapping the back of his head simultaneously.
“You’re Il Divino?”
Well, his secret was out. Michelangelo had been sneaking out every so often to paint the worn out brick and cracked concrete of New York City with his art…and now everyone knew. Including the pretty human in front of him. The fact that she liked his art so much made it possible to pretend that he wasn’t about to be destroyed by his brothers.
“I love your art…especially that roses beneath the bridge!” you chirped happily. “It’s been a while since I’ve seen it around.”
“I’ve been, uh, busy.”
“Well…” you said, picking up your sharpie-covered messenger bag, “if your schedule clears up, I hope to see your work again.”
“Yeah…”
Then you were gone, giving the turtle a little smile as you walked away. Already he was planning a new piece, something with neon pink…and a girl with a bright smile. Leonardo’s lecture began as Raph and Don walked away, laughing to themselves.
And Mikey was stunned totally stupid, wondering what you would think of his next piece…
Maybe he’d get to ask you!
Raphael is unsure.
From the second you nearly fell on top of Leonardo, he’d been expecting the whole shebang. Screaming, panicking, all that good stuff. It happened to them about every time a human managed to find them, a guy starts to expect it. But you could not care less and he…
He’s the confused one right now.
Since getting back on your feet, you hadn’t been even a little phased. Perhaps the fall had scared you but the turtles had not. Straightening your jacket, the metal and plastic pins caught his eye. A lightning bolt, several sarcastic phrases, a red eye. They were cool. You were cool, sighing as you looked back at the turtles.
“When have you seen one of us?” Leonardo asked. “Who?”
“I dunno…which one of you likes to stand on rooftops and angrily scream into the sky a couple times a week?”
At once all of his brothers turned and looked right at him, an unspoken answer to your question. Raph looked away, face hot and eyes burning. Raph’s temper was well known to his family…and apparently to you too.
“Uh…ya heard me, huh?”
“Actually, I screamed back at you once. I believe I told you you to get your crap together and stop throwing fits at four in the fucking morning.”
“That was you?”
Hands on your hips, you looked at the turtle with confidence and attitude. It was almost like you were daring him to snap back, ready for a bite back…he almost wanted to take you up on it! You were not, he realized, even a little bit afraid of him. Shocking for a human but strangely comforting at the same time for the turtle.
“Yup.”
“Why ain’t ya mad at me?”
“I was for a while. But then I saw you beating some Purple Dragons into the dirt and I thought, eh, give the guy a chance.”
Raphael grinned, chuckling beneath his breath. Clearly, you were not like most other humans. He felt certain that if aliens landed right here in font of you, you’d probably just tell them to get out of your way because you were late and trying to get home.
“I gotta go. It’s nice to finally meet you…?”
“Raphael.”
“Later, Raphael.”
He liked it. The glint in your eyes and edge to your grin, the way you said his name…there was just something about you that he liked. And there was something else telling him that this wasn’t the last time he’d see you.
He was looking forward to it.
Mikey: Don't let anyone tell you fairy tail aren't real Angelcakes....
Raph: *thinking little bro is about to say something so cheesy yet so clever to the fangirls*
Donnie: *Wondering through main room looking half alive with the whole full coffee pot in hand* Yeah don't let people lie to you; I drink a potion every morning made if magic beans and it brings me back to life!
Leo: ...
Just the Two of Us (Michelangelo x Reader)
((We need more Mikey content, so here’s a quick something 👏 I’m listening to Grover Washington Jr’s “Just the Two of Us” btw. Reader’s gender is neutral.))
You knew he was a flirt.
The way he spoke to April, and then to you, there was no denying that being a loverboy was as easy as breathing air for Mikey. There was this ease in his feelings, not one ounce of shame in his words and actions. He wore his emotions on his sleeves and at some point you couldn’t help but wonder if it really was just a game - if he was just constantly throwing a line in hopes that someone would bite down to it and reel up to him.
Yet you could notice some differences whenever he spoke to you. The light touches, the warm smiles, that delicate attention to the every words coming out of your mouth. You probably bit that line at some point, without knowing, … and you didn’t mind.
The more time you spent with him, the more you found yourself thinking back about those sweet words of his whenever you were alone.
“Everything just feels so right whenever you’re around.”
“I could spend all my evenings like this…”
“Just you and I. Just the two of us…”
Just the two of us. You could feel a tingling sensation at the nape of your neck whenever you reminded yourself of those words. There was this way he said those, in a tone you knew he never used whenever speaking to anyone else - not even April.
“We can make it if we try. I mean… what’s the harm?”
That single question, echoing in your mind. You only wanted to fall into those arms, feel the warmth and security only him could give… He wanted to be yours, just as you wanted to be his.
Just the two of us…
To lose yourself in that love. To fall for that smile of his, those baby blue eyes. That radiance amongst the shadows he had to hide in… Imagining yourself by his side. For him to be the first thing you’d see in the morning. To whisper sweet words and get bewitched by his charms. To feel that pride in his gaze whenever he’d look at you - and no one else. To sense that shift in the air whenever one of you was around, uplifting the mood.
Yes. You knew now that he was more than a flirt.

Have a very Merry Christmas guys!😄🎅🏻☃️❄🎁.
Okay but
Can we just
Take a minute
To appreciate
How
Fucking strong
MIKEY IS
Hes the one at the top. The one that’s holding ALL THAT WEIGHT UP with ONE HAND in the first pic, and still IN ACTION in the second. With RAPH SECOND to last. He never struggles holding on when ALL that weight is pulling down. Even when Leos chucking his katana, Raph swinging April towards Shredder so she can kick his metal ass off and he grabs onto the pole with his free hand without a prob.
And he still remains chill.
This is one of the reasons why i love this goodball.
And lets not forget Donnie tho. He looks all slinky yet still fit and hes SECOND. Hes holding Leo April AND RAPH as well.
There all truly amazing.
Mikey definitely gives the best hugs sorry I don't make the rules
Mikey anon here: pffft Donnie’s my fave! So don’t apologize it’s just Mike’s my other fave 🥺 thank you for that insight I loved it! On a more sappy note, whats the moment the boys just KNEW this was the s/o for them like the “oh I’m in love” moment
DONNIE LOVERS, UNITE !!!!!!!!!!! 😤👏💜
And I know I kinda have a similar ask about this which I answered, but I guess I can explore that subject a little more~
-- Leo --
The way you were so nice and attentive towards his family.
It’s hard to explain, but that big heart of yours simply filled him with love.
And how you were so patient and always willing to listen to him. That meant the whole world.
Forget training at almost every waking hours of his day; now he wants to spend time with you and just bask in your presence!
Everytime he feels your hand on his arm whenever you want to emphazise on something, there’s a firework going on in his mind.
-- Raph --
The first time you stood up to HIM.
Yes, the big red brute!!!
That fierce look in your eyes, that confidence in your smile, the way you knew you were right and he was wrong.
Oh he was wrong, alright. Wrong to ever ignore that you were freakin’ AWESOME.
Ever since that moment you both were not afraid to play a little rougher with one another, but he was always so careful with you nonetheless.
-- Donnie --
When you took interest in his tech/projects. Simple as that.
To see that curiosity in your eyes. That smile of yours that simply told him “I need to know more!”.
His heart was racing at that moment and he tried so goddamn hard to contain his joy, although he was smiling like a fool.
The way you also always seek out to him, just to at least say “hello” and “how are you?”.
And the first time you brought him coffee, he was floating on a cloud.
-- Mikey --
Your laughter.
To see and hear you be so amused by his jokes and various shenanigans; he knows you’re the one.
You see, he can clearly hear the difference for when you’re laughing around his brothers, and when you’re laughing around him.
There this electric feeling in the air that makes him want to get closer to you...
The way you reciprocate to his gestures and advances, he knows there’s something going on and he only wants to know what the future holds.
Aw😍😄
I love them!

Look closely you might see I threw a few people in from the fandom 😉💕 But be very aware I was thinking of everybody when I wrote this. Love you guys and thank you for the constant support more Halloween fun to come
“Are ya sure about this kid…” the massive turtle looked around the corner seeing the crowds of people walking in costumes his face scrunching at the teenager who rolled past them on a skateboard spray painted silver in a pair of gray underwear hearing Mikey cackling wildly at the poor excuse for a silver surfer even if it was a clever costume “What in the f-!?” a couple of built football players from the girl’s school ran past painted green wearing purple speedos killing the youngest turtle unable to believe anyone could go out in those as the teen cringed shaking her head at the boys “There is no way I can fucking unsee the Hulk Chippendales rejects…”
The turtle in blue rolled his eyes popping his little brother in the arm for the language “Aw come on guys, this is the one night a year we can go out in the open, just trust me I got it handled” the small woman at their sides giggled looking at all the monsters and mythical looking characters her emerald green orbs shining brightly in the low light of the alley they were hiding in “And before any of you say it Dad will never know; he’s at April’s place and she’s got no idea your four are even with me – this is the first year you four aren’t following me while I’m out – look a few hours of fun then we are so going to get candy”
The tallest turtle started mumbling off statistics as she grinned before she moved closer pulling up his map showing him a signal bleeping off an area of the city they had told their father they would be in meaning if he called to check in or tried to find their phones they weren’t with her “Seriously… how many times do I have to tell you stop hacking into my tech their not toys…” he glared at her for a second before groaning as he messed with his gear looking at what she had done as the others chuckled having warned him about teaching her his technological tricks “Why didn’t I think of that? I’m losing my touch – what the… how did you figure out how to do that?” she laughed moving closer to the street looking out at everything going on
All the kids at the school had been buzzing for weeks about the Halloween bash in Central Park but so far she was thinking the real party was going to be on the streets but could see the guys hesitation as she moved forward stepping out into the streets looking around in awe at all the people who were dressed up seeing nobody looked her way in the pirate queen costume she had made grinning as she looked over at her four larger companions waving them forward finally being joined by Michelangelo who scooped up the teen whooping as a guy high fived him speaking in a Californian surfer accent as the other three turtles joined her seeing nobody was running or screaming
Nobody gave them any looks in fear or disgust but instead a few people cheered commenting on how awesome they looked before a few girls walked up admiring them fawning over the turtles who had been hanging back from the excited girl looking at them with a look that had Donatello blushing as one motioned for them to flex
The girl’s squealed as Mikey showed of grinning and flirting shamelessly as two french maids moved closer giggling as they touched his muscles
Raphael was slower to indulge them before the teen was at his side nodding quickly giggling as he finally did it seeing one girl practically passed out in her boyfriend’s arms “Go Raphie!” he chuckled winking at a woman dressed as a devil purring at the tight lingerie looking dress that hugged her hips and every sweet voluptuous curve of her body making her blush as the turtle eyed her openly before she hurried past with her full figured friend dressed like an angel both with the coolest realistic wings that opened and waved as they walked hand in hand making a soft giggle as she looked back winking at him her red eyes floating over his body
“Dude the girls are loving us!” they were all looking over the girls in the skimpy and awesomely detailed costumes even Leonardo had turned to eye a cute little geisha in a short blue kimono that had passed him her fingers brushing over his chest plate shooting him a wink with a small blown kiss as she walked on
He tried not to show interest in the way her hips were swaying seductively forcing himself to look away his face darker as he tried to act like he hadn’t been staring at her but looked back after a moment to get one final glimpse
The teenager caught him her face lighting up with a huge grin when he realized he had been caught – the older turtle may have been an honor bound ninja but he was still a man at heart and she could see this was probably going to be their first real look at the Halloween crowd from this close “She was cute – you really should go get her number big brother” he waved her off looking embarrassed as she teased seeing each of the mutants relaxed and enjoying the attention
They were all distracted by the pretty girls not paying attention to much to see a figure inching over to them coming up behind the girl who was still admiring the costumes around her “What the hell is with you!” a startled yelp caught their attention seeing the teen being grabbed up by a man moving forward before she twisted out of his arms hugging him lightly turning as the guy jumped back his hands up looking shocked as several weapons were drawn
“Whoa guys – chill… He’s a friend” she patted Raphael’s plastron giving him a reassuring grin as he slowly pulled her away; a growl still rumbling his chest keeping her with him as he looked the man over – he was tall with shaggy black hair and several piercings, his face half hidden behind his swept over bangs where a set of piercing black eyes looked up at them “Guys this is Fang, he’s the guy who stepped in to save me from the quarter back last year – Fang these are my older brother’s Leo, Donavan, and Michael – and the big guy who was about to take your head off is Raphie” the boy relaxed looking them over smirking slightly as she held tight to the huge arm around her
“Ah ha! So these are the mysterious and never seen older men keeping this beautiful flower hidden away from the world of the living – I’m playing with you it’s good to finally meet you guys your little sister is quite the firecracker” he smiled as another guy ran up grabbing ahold of him fast pointing waving for the turtles to follow them “Ay chicka let’s go their starting”
She jumped up and down as music started blaring loudly before she was running “Come on guys you have got to see this”
The teen turned once they were running after her trying to keep her in their sights before stopping looking around seeing several people standing in the circle as they moved looking around to see if they could find the girl who had just vanished seeing a few people already dancing to what sounded like a remix
“Ay found the kid” they all looked over where he pointed grinning seeing their girl dancing around in the circle with a few people before the music shut down with a loud screech as everyone in the circle hit the ground at the same time seeing the teen go limp twitching as the music started again “Oh – no… don’t tell me she-”
“Baby girl so did!” they watched as a few people started to move slowly when ‘Thriller’ started to roar to life over the speakers a few getting up jerking seeing the girl grinning as one of the monsters running around tapped her shoulder before she stood up looking to a man at the back of the area before they all jumped as an explosion went off sending fire and sparks into the air
None of them could speak laughing as the flash mob all followed a man at the front dressed like Michael Jackson seeing a side of the teen they never had before she was there dragging Mikey with her laughing as he joined in carelessly enjoying himself matching her body as she moved with little jerks here and there dancing with her friends until the song ended all of them howling in joy as cheers exploded into the air seeing them still dancing as the next song roared to life
Mikey dancing close to the teenager until a woman dressed like Cat woman pulled him away by his necklace before a pretty blond was at his side in the strangest costume with cat ears and wings but he was having the time of his life making the teenager giggle when he was surrounded by several women whooping and showing off for them
She had noticed the other turtles staying back rolling their eyes at the younger brother laughing as he waved for them to join in but they were good just watching – or they thought
Donnie was looking around watching for danger like his eldest brother before his eyes landed on a gorgeous witch walking towards him almost shyly; he was almost instantly transfixed on the full figured yet so perfectly curvy redhead the second he saw her churring lowly looking love struck as she looked him over before biting her lip as she waved a finger; her spell must have been strong because he started forward introducing himself as she looked him over better following as they walked over to a bench to talk instantly finding her asking about all his neat tech wanting to see the gadget on his arm
“Looks like Donnie is going to bore somebody to sleep”
A snort was the only response Raphael got before the geisha that had caught the leader’s attention was at Leo’s side quietly sneaking up beside him taking his hand in hers eyeing him slowly pulling him forward without a fight as his brother pushed him lightly telling him to pull the stick out his ass for once
There was no response as her hands seeming to catch him in a trance when she starting to dance with the turtle tracing the hard plates on his chest with a sweet smile; none of his family seeing an ounce of the uptight male they were used to as his hands found her hips remaining the gentleman he was
Raph trailed forward rolling his eyes seeing the teen giggling as she watched the others having a good time before catching sight of the devil finding she was looking at him through the crowd before he was stalking forward coming up to her side before being offered a drink, his golden eyes suddenly landing on her friend who came up with another girl that was dressed like a wolf all of them flirting shamelessly
The party continued for a while before she came over holding out five bags that had been handed out one for each of them before she was skipping off down the walk with a grin letting them be not wanting to ruin their fun
Each of the turtles looked to be having a good time for once and unless their radios went off she wasn’t looking to break up their fun
The girl returned to sitting over on a table chatting with a few buddies who laughed with her as Mikey showed his true party boy self getting so much attention from the ladies pretty sure she saw him getting numbers and hyping up the crowd around him
Leo started getting a bit more attention as he relaxed actually smiling as he talked to a few people making friends
Donnie looked to be head over heels with the goofiest smile on his face as him and the redhead sat close to one another looking to connect on a personal level as they seemed to be flirting pretty shamelessly, he finally stood up holding out a hand offering to go on a stroll around the haunted walk together
Last she saw they had disappeared into the park holding hands
Raphael on the other hand was entranced at the women who kept his attention going shot for shot with the demoness carrying on a conversation with the other two as they tried to get him to go in the haunted house they were in front of seeming to compliment him until he jumped up pointing for them to go following quickly
“So – are we waiting on them or-?”
The woman scoffed at her friends before jumping up quickly fixing her costume once she wasn’t being watched by the males “Are you kidding? Dude first year they won’t be watching me I’m going to get candy… Now hurry up if we play this right I can get double to stash in my room before they catch on” she was gone running down the street to cause mischief hoping her brothers had the night of their lives
She also hoped she was fast enough to get back before Leo started looking for her

TMNT incorrect quotes
Raph: surgery is just stabbing someone to life.
Donnie: please never become a surgeon.
Bedtime Headcanons (For the 2007 verse)
since there is little content about this verse I decided to make this post for it but if you want me to do it for the 2012 or 2014/16 tell me and I gladly do it!
Before I start I would like to say that I love that there are multiple verses because the guys personalities varies from each one and so, some of their personality traits too. That being said I hope you enjoy my headcanons! <3
1. Who is a night owl?: I think that Leo would be the night owl in these verse. His days on the jungle would keep him awake once he came back home. Everything was so different, from the environment to his brothers. Especially Raph. He would spend hours thinking on his quality of leader of the team as well as his relationship with his brothers, how the training trip affected diverse aspects of his life. Leo would meditate about his own persona, and how all that time alone might have changed him.
2. Who is a morning person?: MIKEY seriously, you would think that living in a sewer would be everything but interesting but this guys has the ability to find amusement in the smallest things and what better what of finding out new things than to wake up early in the morning. I can also see Donnie as a morning person, he enjoys the silent bc that make his job easier (cuz there are o distractions)
3. Are they cuddlers?
I think all of them would love to cuddle with their s/o but ones more than others. Here is the list from the most cuddly to the less:
Mikey Cuddly 10 / 10
Leo (surprisingly) Cuddly 9.5 /10
Raph Cuddly 9 / 10
Donnie Cuddly 8 / 10
4. Who is the big spoon?: Raph, Leo
5. Who is the little spoon?: Mikey (I have the feeling that he likes to be held)
Can be both: Donnie
6. What is their favourite sleeping position (individually)?:
Leo: on his back, or leaned on his right side. He sleeps peacefully but is a light sleeper.
Raph: On his back with both flexed arms and hands below his head, or just on his back but holding a pillow.
Donnie: Practically sitting tbh (due to his job) but usually falls asleep siting in front the computer.
Mikey: curled-up fetal position, sometimes holding a pillow
7. Who steals all the blankets?:
Mikey and Raph still all the blankets.
Donnie’s and Leo’s S/O still the blankets.
8. Who falls asleep mid-conversation?: Only the youngest of the brothers!
Raph
Mikey
9. Who wakes up in the middle of the night with nightmares? (from the one who is more likely to the least likely)
Mikey: His nightmares are about birthday parties (and this is canon lol)
Raph: About himself as the nightwatcher, crossing the line and killing someone out of rage. Also could be about Leo dying while he was training far from home.
Leo: From weird things he saw on the jungle to lose one of his siblings in battle.
Donnie: rarely has nightmares
10. Who kisses their s/o awake in the morning?:
Leo and Mikey kiss their s/o awake in the morning
Donnie and Raph are kissed awake by their s/o in the morning
hope you like it!
In the mood for something simple. So here's baby Mikey with a cookie to brighten your day
:3
This will be a fandom blog. Mostly my own OCs, Biker Mice and Ninja Turtles. I’m also going to doing stuff for Marvel, DC, Disney, Voltron and my other fandoms.
You can request short scenarios or headcanons. Just tell what fandom, who and what and i will see if it is possible.
I’m working on my own version of TMNT,, I haven’t come up with like a catchy thing for it yet but first off,, Splinter is a woman!!! It’s still Hamato Yoshi, just a cis woman!
I’m so happy with the design so far
“May I speak to your boss now?”
I have been wanting to draw my Rise!Ronin intimidating as all hell cause he truly is and this is just him without using his mystic abilities!!!
Mikey has been through a lot and at this point he just wants to get everything over with so he can have peace finally.
Are There Any Actors That You Want to Voice a TMNT Character?
I don’t really have that many since I never really focus on a celebrity’s voice and say, “Their voice can fit this character.”
But, if I think about it for a moment, I think Jesse McCartney(he voices Nightwing in Young Justice) would be good for Leo or Donnie since Nightwing is generally similar to them.
Ryan Potter could be a good Leo or Mikey since he’s done a fun and naive kind of character like Beast Boy from Titans.
Maybe Will Smith could be a good Bebop. 2012 Bebop had this sly, comedic attitude and I think Will Smith would do a good job.
Ron Pearlman would do really good as Bishop similar to the 2003 series. He has a sinister and calculated voice he used for Slade from Teen Titans.
Stephanie Lemelin(Artemis from Young Justice) would be a cool choice for a more tough and badass April.
I’m interested to see you guys’ choices. 😁
*If you have a specific voice your voice actor choice does, can you mention that so I can what your choice fully meant. Thanks.*
From Most to Least Favorite, How Would You Rank Each TMNT 2003 Seasons?
1. Season 4
Really enjoyed Leo’s arc. I love focusing on the effects the traumatic situation had on a character’s mental health. This season improved Leo greatly.
My only gripe is I wished Bishop was a major villain.
9/10
2. Season 3
I liked a lot of the episodes and it had my favorite final stories like Ultimate Draco and Exodus.
Same As It Never Was was probably my favorite episode, though I wished there was more payoff with it afterwards.
8/10
3. Season 2
S2 has my second favorite finale with the Battle Nexus, and it was an improvement of S1.
It was the season that really got me into the show.
Usagi was a great addition. He’s one of my favorite characters.
7/10
4. Season 1
I didn’t get into this season until the Shredder was a major part of it. I mostly found the introductory episodes meh but it was probably because I wasn’t used to the new iteration yet.
It’s higher since the next seasons are not as great.
6.5/10
5. Season 5
I liked the concept but the execution was not as great.
The plot felt rushed and the villain was meh because it was another Shredder. I would’ve enjoyed the story more if it was a new villain.
The other 4 acolytes didn’t serve a purpose other than the writers trying to digress how special the turtles are, which didn’t work since the turtles became the dragons like their mystical instructors.
6/10
6. Season 6
The new setting and concept barely keeps this season from last place.
It was a new fresh take, but the more childish tone ruined it for me. Total tone shift distract me most of the time.
The Dark Turtles, Cody, and Sterling were cool editions tho.
5.5/10
7. Season 7
The last season was… disappointing.
I would’ve preferred this season being about the Turtles learning how to relax after all that happened to them. Like, a moment when everything is peaceful and they are not needed to protect the city. Exploring how to move on from their sense of purpose would’ve been fun to see. It would’ve coincided well with April x Casey’s wedding since they are also move towards a different path.
4.5/10

My Version of the Hamato Family
Hi everyone! Thank you for reading and liking part one. It made my day!
So, this is where I shine in writing. I love creating characters and their backstory; it’s so fun. I think it is more important to focus on characters than the plot since a character can create the storyline- well at least for me.
I’m excited to share! Hope you enjoy!
Comment your thoughts! It would be cool to read them! 😁
……………………..
Leonardo:
We’re starting with the usual leader-in-blue!
Although I adore Leo, his “perfect” personality can get a little boring. His versions usually have flaws, though they are the kind that makes you sympathize with him rather than feeling indifferent like with Raph’s anger issues.
Season 1 Leo would be a toned-down Rise Leo. He can be cocky when he succeeds over his brothers and would jokingly comment how he is Splinter’s favorite. However, it doesn’t come without hard work. Leo trains the most out of his brothers and spends most of his time studying fighting techniques. He is not naturally talented in ninjitsu like the past incarnations. Also, Leo’s motivations for training very hard and wanting to be leader is more for himself than anything.
Compared to his brothers, Leo was relatively average. Donnie was extremely smart, Mikey had his kind and joyful soul, and Raph was naturally a great fighter. Leo felt left out and decided that training to be a hero would be his way of standing out. He also believed that being special like his brothers was the only way to get Splinter’s attention; and it kind of worked. With all the progress Leo made, Splinter praised him, and they had a way to connect.
Around the beginning of S1(maybe ep. 5), Leo became the leader though how was different. Instead of Splinter deciding, the brothers did; the explanation was the turtles were a team and should make a consensus as one. This news made Leo ecstatic; he was finally living his dreams. Even so, he didn’t realize the baggage and responsibility a leader had to shoulder. Over the course of the story Leo grows as a great leader and fighter.
The Karai/Leo subplot will follow the 2003 version. He is convinced that Karai is a good person and tries to have her switch sides. There will be romantic feelings but its not the main motivation for both of their actions. I can’t say too much since this plot revolves around Karai more.
Donatello:
Donnie is a blend of 2003/12 versions. He is intelligent with an extremely high IQ and was a gifted child. However, his intelligence came with a cost; making connections with his brothers and father was really tough for him because of their different interests. This left him withdrawing from everyone and focusing on his inventions. His social skills evolve once the turtles visit the city and meet April. The increasing danger of the Kraang further builds his relationships since communication is important in teamwork, and Donnie’s talent in inventing grew more in the spotlight.
Because of her fascination with Donnie’s smarts and inventions, April and Donnie become good friends as the story continues. Donnie also gets close with April’s best friend, Irma since they are science lovers. At first, Casey irritates him as they have clearly different personality; Casey’s impulsive and extroverted attitude conflicting with Donnie’s plan-based mindset.
Donnie’s love for his family is showcased after witnessing a terrifying, apocalyptic future where his family suffers. Paranoia sets in. His work to calculate the cause of this terrible, and its solution leads Donnie to rarely take care of his needs. He has to learn to trust in others instead of doing things alone.
Raphael:
Unlike Leo, Raph is instantly gifted in fighting. He has more physical strength than his brothers and would constantly beat them in practice. Since childhood, Raph was Splinter’s “favorite” in the dojo and that definitely got into the red-banded turtle’s head. He would brag to his brothers and jokingly poke fun at their techniques. It wouldn’t affect anyone. Except for Leo.
Raphael’s ego started taking hits once Leo caught up to him and beating him in practice once in a while. It turned into anger after noticing Master Splinter praising Leo more. The tension soured their brotherhood. Unlike most versions, Raph’s anger is fueled by insecurity. He believes that fighting is the only thing he is good at and will get territorial if his spotlight is threatened.
Throughout the story, he learns to move on from his demons and realize his worth.
Family is important to Raph. He can be hard on his brothers yet will do anything to keep them safe, especially Mikey- his positivity must be protected. Casey and Raph become best friends for their similarities and love for fighting- they are impulsive bros.
Michelangelo:
Mikey’s role is to be the positive and glue of the team. He loves to make people happy and would always do something goofy or kind to do that. His family have nothing bad to say about their youngest member and are very protective of him. The youngest brother doesn’t take ninjitsu as seriously as skateboarding, dancing, or just general fun. Though, he will be serious when the situation calls for it, such as the fate of his family and the world.
Although being an open ear to anyone, Mikey is not open to expressing his negative emotions due to his fear of damaging the family dynamic. It is noticeable when he is upset because he jokes more often and not focus. A lesson he must learn is to accept the good and the bad. Mikey can be reckless, mostly when his brothers rarely let him participate in missions. He wants to prove to his family that he is strong enough to protect himself and others. Reading people is his best skill and takes great pride in it, usually taking on the role of a therapist.
Splinter/Hamato Yoshi:
I really wanted to take Splinter’s role in the Shredder’s descent to evil in the grayer area. He is usually the victim/innocent party of the story, which can get boring after a while.
Hamato Yoshi was born as the heir to Hamato Clan and childhood best friend of Oroku Saki. The Hamato and Foot clan were allies for centuries and would usually fight by each other’s side. Matters changed when the Foot’s beliefs grew more sinister. This left the Hamato Clan to eradicate their former ally. Splinter saved Saki before he could be killed, though, it came with consequences. Oroku Saki vowed to exact revenge for his fallen home. Growing up, Splinter became one of the strongest martial artists in Japan and married a woman named Tang Shen, later becoming a father to a girl. His world ended once he saw his clan destroyed and his family killed by the renewed Foot Clan.
Yoshi decided to move to New York and forget his old life. Years later, the martial artist noticed strange people caging defenseless animals. He would fight them long enough to protect four humanoid turtles, deciding to keep them after a moment of compassion. Splinter would continuously fight the strange men until a strange liquid turned him into a rat. This turning point banished Splinter and the turtles to the sewers for protection.
Splinter equally loves his sons. He would always make sure to give them equal amounts of love to avoid lasting issues. Though, he has made some mistakes. Emotions were rarely discussed because of Splinter’s unintentionally withdrawn attitude. The rat master wouldn’t instantly notice problems between his sons, and usually didn’t know how to resolve them. No matter what, Splinter is proud of his children and would do anything to keep them safe; sometimes not realizing that it could hurt them.
Hamato Yoshi’s guilt and trauma over the terrible moments in his life would be the main focus of his development.
April Kunoichi Rant
I’ve seen people complain how April became a kunoichi so fast; I was one as well. But, I just watched City at War(the episode where she becomes a kunoichi), and I missed a detail the first few times I watched it.
Around the very beginning, April is reminiscing about how much she has grown since the first season, and is very happy that she is a kunoichi. Then, Raph mentions that April needs more training to be a full kunoichi; she is only in the beginner levels.
This makes sense.
In the first season, the turtles are considered ninjas but still had a lot to learn. That wouldn’t be different for April.
