Curate, connect, and discover
There is an emerging rumour which is becoming quote popular that what happened all thoes years ago was that someone with a big grudge against Big Mama paid a witch to place a curse on the boys to make them "disappear". The witch did not have the heart to do that and instead turned them into turtles so that they wouldn't be recognised and left them outside the hidden city to be adopted by a lone kind rat-yokai.
I hope you have had a nice new years and enjoyed this lightly fairy tale inspired rumour mill update
That yokai rumor mill is just too wholesome for it's own good lol. I love it!
thank you! and i hope you had a good new years as well : )
Sunita absolutely keeps April up to date on the latest rumours surrounding the turtles and co,
this weeks one being;
CJ looks human because he inherited the jorogumo shapeshifting ability and the poor boy's obviously just not used to being in a yokai safe environment.
Lol i love that! I imagine the yokai that end up believing that try to be exceptionally nice to CJ, in hopes he starts feeling comfortable enough to shift out of his disguise. CJ is just super confused that week when like five different shopkeepers hand him free stuff and April's laughing more and more as they go.
Thank you!
Big Mama is quite a high profile person so when four sons show up from seemingly nowhere people are bound to talk.
The spider traits clearly mark the brothers as her children but they also have a distinctly turtle-like appearance. So people think back with the approximated ages of these kids in mind and now there are two opposing camps; thoes who say Lou Jitsu was secretly a kappa who used a cloaking broach to make it big in both the human world and hidden city alike, and thoes who are convinced there was an affairs and that being the reason Lou Jitsu and Big Mama broke up with the battle nexus champion leaving without a trace.
Ofcourse then CJ appears and when someone overhears him call Big Mama "grand-mama" the rumour mill and theories are once again in full swing.
(Hope you found this vignette funny. I love you AUs and I'm always exited whenever there is a new post)
Lol yes! this is great! A yokai rumor mill sounds hilarious lol! and there would be plenty for them to talk about with some theories more rediculous than others. Like maybe someone sees them around Draxum and starts a perposterous rumor that Big Mama and Lou had paid Draxum to clone some kids for them, but he messed it up and accidentally made them turtles hybrids instead and that's why Mama's pissed at him.
and aww, thank you!!
An update from the present day (family web) yokai rumour mill;
The tense air between Big Mama, Baron Draxum and Rat Jitsu is all due to a love triangle or poly relationship gone wrong.
Whatever the case they were all seen attending an art exhibit for promising new young artists. Sources say Michelangelo, one of the artists featured, refered too all three of them as his family.
Lol! I have the distinct feeling Draxum and Splinter would be absolutely horrified by that rumor. (mama would find it hilarious b/c 1, she is well aquanted with the rumor mill and knew this could be an assumption, and 2, he absolutely loves Splinter and Draxum's reactions to it. I could see her feeding the rumor mill even more, simply by "Lamenting" in public about how her adorable Lou had run away with a sheep man 13 years ago and she hadn't heard from him again until recently. much to Draxum's and Splinter's horror.)
Thank you! and i absolutely love Mikey getting his own art exhibit! That's so cute! : )
