No Mikeys were harmed in the making of this comic~
Mikey had it out for Donnie, he literally looked at him and yelled it out
mikey is some kind of trans and i’m tired of y’all pretending he’s not
Turtle memes because I'm obessed with how these are technically all the same characters (shout out to @lokelios for suggesting the Leo one lmao)
(Don't repost)
these are all real and canon and true
TMNT PROMPT
Okay so I know dimension X and the prison dimension are the same thing, so can you imagine a 2012 and 2018 crossover where Rise!Leo meets 2012!Mikey while he’s trapped in dimension X? They could talk about the differences between their universes and bond and find ways to try and get back home. Maybe Mikey can show off his skills and play big brother for a moment. I feel like that would be so cool.
I don't remember that much from 2003 Donnie, but compared to the other version of him, he's pretty less chaotic than them.
2012 Donnie blows up his lab, 2014/2016 Donnie jumps out of a plane, 2018 Donnie is thirsty for homicide.
then there’s bay donnie, a girlboss
so who wants to talk about the 2012 mikey to 2018 donnie kinnie pipeline?
One of the most misunderstood episodes in the 2012 version has to be the Fear Mushroom episode.
April is shown to be afraid of bats. But really it's to show how much she's afraid of losing her dad to his mutation.
Casey is shown to be afraid of rats. This is pretty common with people, however, I believe this fear stems from that episode when The Rat King is first introduced and rats overtook the city.
Mikey is shown to be afraid of the Squirrelinoids. However, this shows us that Mikey's really afraid of reality. The squirrelinoids were that of fantasy from a simple comic that became real. It showed us that Mikey had realised that his world was becoming more and more dangerous. That the real monsters were those found in the real world. That reality is scarier than fantasy.
Donnie is shown to be afraid that April would hate him. While Donnie's crush on April had a small influence in that, what he's really afraid of is being rejected by those he cares about. April was Donne's first ever HUMAN friend, someone who looked at him as an equal. This only hammers down more when we hear the lines "I hate you, you mutated my father." Donnie still blames himself for nearly losing his best friend. That's also why Donnie was so desperate to get April back. It wasn't just because he had a crush on her, but because she's the only connection he has to being normal.
Raph is shown to have his common known fear of cockroaches (which is later to be found out that he is afraid of all bugs). However, I believe this is a metaphor for his true fear. While it was expected that his fear would be him losing his temper, Raph knows that he and his brothers won't let him get that far. Cockroaches? An insect that can survive a nuclear war? That's not something Raph can control. And while he DOES have a phobia of insects, Raph is most afraid of not being able to control his environment or the situation surrounding him.
Leo is shown to be afraid of letting his team down. While this is true, he has expressed that numerous times, it branches out to being afraid of failure. Leo doesn't just fear he'll fail his team, he's afraid of failing his brothers in a way that could potentially lose their trust or, worse, kill them.
hits every single point and does NOT miss omg
when you first start reading fanfiction, you’re selective. you use almost every filter; word count, genre, pairing, character, etc. But as the years go on, you start using less and less of the filters and then one day you’re about to click on the fic, despite seeing all the horrific smut and/or violence hashtags and think
