Chapter 15: Ring now up on AO3!
Bishop is back, and he has a few questions for Leonardo. Well, complaints, really, if he's being honest.
Happy Monday! Whatever the week brings, at least it's... probably not that! Leo, bearing the cross for us all.
I really like this chapter, personally. Bit of a laugh, bit of a cry, the whole package. Let me know what you think.
#the spiral#HERE IT FUCKIN IS!!!!! The chapter that made me fucking cry!!! I mean obviously there was some other ones that crushed me down but this one#ooooooo this one#tmnt 2k3#tmnt 2003#katanashipping#leosagi#PLEASE read this it’s so good#god reading it over again the pain is so Palpable it makes my heart ache#please give him back to his husband goddamit
Looking at old tmnt fan fiction and remembering that since the 2k3 turtles didn’t have canon eye colors, a lot of people just took the eye colors from the 2k7 movie and just retrofitted them onto the 2k3 turtles. So in old fics Raphael having golden eyes was allllll over the place.
I think Leo commonly had gray eyes and ofc Mikey had baby blues, but golden-eyed Raph was like. Such a specific, overwhelming phenomenon of that era that I very rarely see these days.
#I kind of miss it is the thing#I love love love wildly accepted fanon in fandom#it’s like half social contract half excited conversation done through fanwork#really makes a fandom a community imo! like that’s not all there is too it obviously but it’s a nice extra dealy ouo#tmnt#tmnt 2003#tmnt 2k3#tmnt 2k7#widely accepted*** was what I meant djfjfjskdk

I want you all to know that for the past several days I’ve mentally been bent over, on the ground, screaming about turtles. I look completely normal at my desk job but internally it is all little green terrapins and the other people, mutants, aliens, etc. they love.
Reblogging this again because it has once again become true. I just regularly find myself in these states where I can only focus on putting them In Situations and screaming about it mentally.
#tmnt#I swear I want to write a lot of it out but how do I concisely explain the movies in my head#like the one where Leonardo and Usagi have been broken up for years but then see each other across a dance floor#and remember exactly why they fell in love in the first place. Then remember exactly why they Broke Up in the first place#and are so goddamn torn between wanting to leave immediately and wanting to rush forward for a big dramatic kiss#WHICH!!! Putting them in that situation would take Set Up. because neither of them can just have a chance meeting in a club or something#because neither of them can be walking the streets of NYC. I guess I could use a wedding as an excuse#but that still requires some set up/explanation

2003Leo and Usagi outfit swap!
I added onto Usagi’s wardrobe to replicate Hamato Yoshi so that he wouldn’t ONLY be wearing Leo’s gear (ex. elbow pads, Leo’s mask, etc),,,,, Leo doesn’t wear much :|
I remember they both went on a mission together where Usagi had to dress as a ninja and he wasn’t happy about it (that episode is what inspired this piece)

Thank you to @theunicorncomic-blog for tagging me! The previous chain was getting a bit too long for me 😅
Last Song: I Won't by Little Mix
Favourite Colour: Green, blue, teal/seafoam mix of the two if I can be a bit pretentious about it
Spicy/Savoury/Sweet: I don't do well with chili heat (mustard is fine though). I love sweet food, but I will always lean towards savoury more.
Relationship Status: Married <3
Current Obsession: TMNT & UY (always), Stardew Valley, Cassette Beasts, Dungeon Meshi (I started reading it this week), and finishing my latest LEGO set
Tagging (no pressure though):
Thank you for tagging me!! :D
Last Song: Friendship Through the Ages by I guess the MLP cast? The Rainbooms? I could list all the voice actors individually but that seems overboard
Favorite Color: Pink! (I also do love teal but pink has very much become my favorite as of late)
Spicy/Savory/Sweet: Sweet. I have such an unbearable sweet tooth. I do love spicy too though.
Relationship Status: Polyamorous/Engaged! (ENGAGED! I have a FIANCÉE. Still losing my mind about that.)
Current Obsessions: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (That’s what I’ve been writing and reading lately so it goes first), TMNT (this never goes away though), Usagi Yojimbo (neither does this but by god do I need to read more of it), Destiny 2 (we’re so back baby), Keith Ballard’s Video Essays, and The Echo Project and its web of various visual novels.
And then! The people I can think tag off the top of my head are @spooky-circuits @injytech and @grrlofswirls no pressure though y’all!

Day four! You know I had to do it to him.
There’s always been this thing I’ve wanted to explore somewhere when it comes to the Leosagi battle couple idea. And that’s that neither of them see it coming. Sure they spar, sure they fight together, but it isn’t until they’re ambushed by foot or neko ninja or Something that they realize it. Probably before either of them actually confess.
They just each ready their swords and then they’re flowing together, predicting every move, every cut, every duck and parry and dodge. And their attackers go down, one by one, until they’re both standing there, panting. They see the carnage they have wrought together and Leonardo realizes he has only fought like this with his brothers. Usagi can’t remember if he’s ever fought with someone like that before. Tomoe Ame maybe. And from there they both slowly sink into the gentle, italicized oh of understanding.
Neither of them say anything right then, but after that the wheel has begun to turn and it’s only a matter of time.

This has 100% been done before but I’m curious
Please reblog for larger sample size
Top-Tier Villain Motivations
- They will be safe. It doesn't matter who else or what else burns as long as They will be safe.
- I will be safe. The hunger and the cold will never touch me again.
- Fuck any bitch who's prettier(/cooler/better-liked/better at making dumplings) than me.
- Yes, Master
- Love me. Love me. Love me. Love me. LOVE ME!
- I know the terrible things these so-called "heroes" will do if I don't stop them (<- is absolutely wrong)
- I don't want a better future, I want a better past!
- No other way to get performance art funded these days
I showed this to my D&D group and now 3/4 of us are trying to convince the DM we're the one who deserves a villain arc.

While the turtles are staying with April in season one, she has a somewhat hard time keeping food in the fridge. Four mutant turtle teens are no joke as far as appetite is concerned, and the novelty of having 100% new and fresh foods in the fridge at all times is not lost on them. They have to be encouraged a couple times to help themselves, and when they finally do it's like an apocalypse on her fridge.
She also enjoys introducing them to new things during this time. She brings home one of those TUBS of pillsbury cookie dough to make them fresh chocolate chip cookies. Before they're in the oven, Mikey finds her and she lets him have some of the dough.
And then Donnie comes into the kitchen and freezes when he sees them. He looks at the dough. He looks at Mikey. He looks at April.
"Did you let Mikey have chocolate?"
April looks at him. Looks at Mikey. "...Yes?"
Don FREAKS out and smacks the spoon out of Mikey's hand. "We can't have chocolate, we're severely allergic!"
April PANICS. "What?? I didn't know, I'm so sorry!"
"What do you mean you didn't know?" Don asks, clutching his baby brother to his chest like he's about to perish. Mikey looks confused. "You wouldn't give chocolate to a dog, would you?"
April's freaking out escalates. Dogs aren't supposed to have chocolate! She knows that much. "What do I do? Should we—uh—go to the ER?"
"Are you insane?" Don has Mikey practically in a headlock and Mikey is—crying? Choking? "We need a VET, April!"
Splinter, whose dad-sense is tingling so hard that his fur is standing on end, enters the kitchen ominously. "Boys. I hope you're behaving and being kind to our host."
April is like, five seconds away from just dying of sheer embarrassment and worry. She looks at Splinter with huge eyes, about to admit she's POISONED his son, and then Don dissolves into giggles.
She stares at him, open mouthed in shock. He releases Mikey, who as it turns out, is also giggling. The chokehold was doing little to suppress it. Splinter puts his head in his hand.
"I'm just kidding April. We eat chocolate just fine."
She has to take another long moment to process the shock and calm her heart down. Don's laughing so hard he's tearing up.
April has never had little siblings before. She used to wonder what it would be like, and there was a time in her life where she had even wanted a little brother or sister to tease and love.
She did not know the true nature of little siblings. Which is evil, naturally.
She chases Don out of the kitchen with the biggest wooden spoon she has, and Splinter HOPES she catches him.
Honestly Usagi Miyamoto is the best kind of character cause he’s just a little guy. Just a little bunny. He’s got big floppy ears and a cute twitchy nose and soft, fuzzy fur and little bunny pawbs. He’s undeniably adorable!
And he has killed in cold blood before. He will do it again. He’s fought in wars, seen people closest to him die horrible deaths, been consumed by rage and vengeance. He’s a grizzled old soldier with a 100 yard stare and the fastest draw speed in old Edo.
But! He’s got a cute wittle floofy bunny face yes he does yes he does!
That kind of dichotomy is just peak character design.
