2003 TMNT MEETING YUICHI USAGI FOR THE FIRST TIME
Yuichi: you know my ancestor? You know Miyamoto Usagi? Thats so cool!
Leo: *realizes this means Usagi most likely marries a woman*
Leo:
HOLD UP
- We're making Usagis for the other versions now?! Why did no one tell me?! If there is art I NEED TO SEE IT NOW afaggshsjsjdjfkdldpsjja freaking 2007 Usagi? Bay Usagi? im losing it over here
- When on earth did 2012 hit 80+ fics? Swear last time i was here in the Leo/M. Usagi tag they had like 12
- 2003 is almost at 200 now *tears of joy*
I have not watched any usagi episodes but these are the leosagi vibes ive picked up on based on clips
1987 - Leo sees that he's so sweet and that makes him so cute and Leo most definitely tried to spend time with him. Does he know its a crush? Idk. At least one brother suspects it. Usagi on the other hand has zero clue about it
2003 - Leo has a crush and Leo knows about it. Usagi saved his life and he went full maiden swoon. He doesnt plan to act on it but he does realistically have a chance with Usagi (a animal-person his age) and that makes it worse. His brothers know. His dad knows. Everyone knows. Usagi does not know. Usagi knows his own feelings though. We are talking mutual pining for the foreseeable future. One of them finally decides to do something about it and right before he acts he finds out about Jotaro's existence and everything gets put on halt
2012 - its a hate-crush. Leo hates that Usagi is a good person and right half the time and is better than him at sword fighting. He also likes him for all those exact things. Its complicated. He doesn't want to work it out. Mikey figures it out first. The age difference just makes it funnier for Mikey. Casey tried to help him feel better by talking about how he had the biggest crush on his 6th grade teacher and Leo wants to fake his own death
I found a tmnt iteration ranking list! These are mine, made with complete bias (aka how much i personally enjoy them). Im still working my way thru the movie rewatch list, so its incomplete
- Fav turtle characters
- Fav turtles ranked within their team
- Ranked by fav version of each character
(ignore 2012, i feel i have to rewatch that before placing them on these lists)
EDIT: whoops batman!Leo was supposed to go into "no feelings"
I am simple. I see fanart of any leo and any usagi in the 2003 shoulder touch pose, i go feral
Laughing so hard i read this and then immediately imagined leosagi but not like a cute tiny tongue tip touch to the cheek but Usagi licking a huge stripe up Leo's cheek who happens to not know this is a rabbit kiss and thinks his bf has lost his marbles
They specified 🤣 the other turtles just say red, purple, orange
The "green brings out my eyes you prick!" vine just went through my head
help-i-need-a-cool-username reblogged
Gonna talk a bit about various spellings in relation to this au. Gonna do each character in their own reblog
Next: Leonardo
Ive actually already got her name, same as canon
Leonardo "Leo" Hamato
Her other nicknames are "Leah" and "Lennie". "Lennie" was what her sisters called her when they were babies and they will break that name back out when they want to be annoying
Other much less frequently used nicknames include "Leon", "Leona" (pronounced "lee-own-nah") and "Nardo". Usually all in the same sentence
"Leo! Leo! Leon! Leona! Pay attention to me."
"Leo. Leonardo. Nardo. WAKE UP!"
I officially ship Leo x Usagi. Nicely screaming into the void to more experienced shippers asking you to tell me about leosagi/katanashipping/whatever they're called. All versions welcomed
What are your headcanons? How do you think they interact? If they havent met in a specific canon yet, how do you want it to go? What do you love about this ship? Got any fic recommendations? Basically im asking for you to rant to me here about them i need to learn more about them lol
What are your scar headcanons for the turtles?
Does anybody know of a list of differences on all the versions of TMNT turtles? Like wikipedia tells me Rise!Donnie is smart but no where does it say "would not hesitate to fight God in a parking lot" and tbh that tells me way more about his personality than "is the smartest of the brothers"
Finally watching usagi clips bc i fell down the leosagi rabbit hole (lol) and the first link i clicked was this one and 2 minutes into the 47 minutes i already have things to say so i guess im live blogging this lol
- I know almost nothing about 03 but WOW was Usagi's first meeting with Leo easy to see as romantic. Like Usagi literally saves Leo's life and Leo is standing there in classic anime "oh hahah" nervous posture talking to him
- Leo after being saved by this rabbit guy: *goofy smile* oh uh hi im Leonardo *bows bc manners*
- Usagi: *bows back* *throws in a few accomplishments in his introduction* *makes intense eye contact with soft smile* i was just um walking by when i saw you being attacked by those cowardly assassins
- Leo: i guess i was lucky you came by right
- Usagi: *still has direct eye contact when he talks*
- Leo: yeah 😍
Okay back to the video im not even finished with watching this one conversation yet assdfghjkl
If you could mix-and-match one Leo, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey from the whole multiverse to put on a team together, who would you pick?
You can throw in Splinter or April or whoever you want also
It doesnt have to just be your favs you can tell me which 4pack would be the funniest to watch interact or tell me which ones you think would make the best fighting team or cooking team etc
CLARIFICATION: Im talking you select them and drop them in a room together. These arent the brothers they grew up with (unless they're from the same verse), im not asking you to conduct a whole au no need to overthink it
You ever know something then all a sudden you know something?
Like yeah, i knew 2012!Karai's backstory was similar to Elena's in The Mask of Zorro (1998). I honestly wouldnt be surprised if it was inspired by that.
But then i woke up this morning (literally i mustve been dreaming about it or something) and actually saw the parallels
- Evil guy is in love with the hero's wife
- Evil guy goes to kill hero, and wife dies instead
- The hero is sent away and
- The hero's house sets on fire, and the now heartbroken evil guy decides to raise his unrequited love's infant daughter as his own
- Years later hero takes up protege, who wears a cloth mask tied around the eyes
- Protege meets daughter, neither knowing she is the hero's biological daughter. They are each other's love interests
- Protege and daughter are not exact rule followers, and get in trouble the few times including every time they meet
- Hero dies fighting the evil guy
I havent watched either in years so i might even be missing more
Consider: a 2012 x Rise crossover where rise!Leo and rise!Donnie end up in 2012's world, and all of the 2012 cast are forced to witness the disaster twins in full unfiltered force
