Deleted Scene From The Obi-Wan Kenobi Series, Perhaps @existence-is-useless

This is exactly the kind of ridiculousness I would expect turtle-tot Leonardo to come up with.

It's that time of the year again 🎃💥

@slady-ao3 Yeah, exactly! I think that’s what makes the moment so memorable—Leonardo’s usually the last turtle you’d expect to kill without hesitation.

Incorrect Canon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Quotes

Casey: [looking anxiously at the crates, where a distinct snapping noise was heard] Did you just... kill him?

Leonardo: Of course not! That would be inhumane. [He stands proudly, gesturing to the unconscious goon behind the crates.] l popped his medulla oblongata, paralyzing him for life. He can still breathe and feel Purple Dragon sadness.

Casey: [scratches his head, looking confused] ...I don't see how that's any better.

Context: During season four of the 2003 iteration of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Leonardo drags a Purple Dragon goon behind some crates, where a distinct snapping noise is heard. This made a lot of fans theorize he actually snapped his neck, killing him. Video below:

Do you ever imagine that all your favorite characters, who have absolutely no connection to each other, just chill in your head when you’re not actively thinking about them?

For me, it’s like: Leonardo from the 2003 iteration of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Sam Winchester from Supernatural, and Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Star Wars prequels all sitting at a table sipping tea. And yes, they’re totally aware they’re in my head:

Leonardo: [staring at the mug in front of him] Is it just me, or does everything feel... jittery today?

Sam: [rubbing his temples] Oh, it’s not just you. I think she’s had, like, three cups of coffee already this morning.

Obi-Wan: [raising an eyebrow] Three cups? Amateur. During the Clone Wars, I once drank six cups in one briefing just to stay awake while Anakin explained his ‘perfect’ plan to flank a droid battalion. It wasn’t perfect. I ended up digging us out of a crater for three hours.

Leonardo: [sighing] No wonder I’ve been feeling like I should be training non-stop. The energy in here is buzzing.

Sam: [grinning slightly] Hey, at least she’s somewhat productive when caffeinated. Sometimes it’s just doomscrolling and procrastination.

Obi-Wan: [calmly setting his cup down] Perhaps we should find a way to encourage her to hydrate. Tea, perhaps?

Sam: [shrugging] We can try, but she won’t listen to me about drinking water. Dean’s been yelling at her from somewhere in the subconscious for years.

Leonardo: Maybe if we say it’ll help her focus on writing, she’ll actually consider it.

Obi-Wan: [thoughtfully] A clever suggestion. But I suspect we may be at the mercy of her next coffee run regardless.

This is bruhluhbruh 🌸 yay!

Michelangelo, over the Shell Cell: [nervously] Leo…

Leonardo: [already suspicious] Yeah, what is it, Mikey?

Michelangelo: Hypothetically—

Leonardo: [interrupts, already grabbing his weapons] I'm on my way.

Michelangelo: [under his breath] …should probably hurry.

Jun-ho after risking life and limb to find Gi-hun and the island only to find In-ho and Gi-hun:

Geum-ja, barely holding it together after being trapped in the Mingle Room with “Young-il” and Gi-hun:

My roommate walked in on me watching the 2003 TMNT Halloween episode, and without missing a beat, she suggested we carve a ‘PTSD-o-lantern’ for Halloween. I was baffled, like, what? And then she goes, 'Oh, you know...the blue one.' HELP. That is so horribly accurate it hurts 💀
