Thoughts On Time Skip In Rise Movie

Dolores Headcanon (Modern AU)

If she lived in the modern age, Dolores would like and relate to Taylor Swift and Adele’s songs, especially “You Belong With Me” and “Someone Like You”

Most people know Taylor Swift and Adele’s music are mostly about lost love and inner turmoil and I think Dolores would connect with them. We don’t know how long Dolores has had a crush on Mariano but I’m going to say for like a few years. “You Belong With Me” is about a girl pining after a guy who is with another and she thinks they don’t fit as a couple. This can pretty much be Dolores’ mindset on the engagement. “Someone Like You” is about woman mourning the loss of a love who is marrying another woman. Again, pretty similar to the engagement circumstances.

What do you guys think?

I’ve been trying to remember this anime I watched. I only saw the opening and never got the chance to see the whole thing but I want to now. It’s not super famous.

Here’s all I remember from the opening:

1. The song was really upbeat.

2. In the end, a dark-haired(maybe purple) girl sees a pink-haired girl sitting in those tubes you see in the playground. Then they starting running through a field together without shoes. They may be holding their them.

3. The setting kind of goes gloomy and sad near the middle of the opening. I believe there was a boy and girl with instruments- a piano and violin respectively.

4. There was a large group of people with white hoods.

5. Near the end of the opening there was a small person- maybe there were kid- standing back-to-back with a extremely big person.

6. I kind of remember a guy maniacally laughing

Thanks to anyone who knows and comments. 😁💕

My Version of the Hamato Family

Hi everyone! Thank you for reading and liking part one. It made my day!

So, this is where I shine in writing. I love creating characters and their backstory; it’s so fun. I think it is more important to focus on characters than the plot since a character can create the storyline- well at least for me.

I’m excited to share! Hope you enjoy!

Comment your thoughts! It would be cool to read them! 😁

……………………..

 Leonardo:

We’re starting with the usual leader-in-blue!

Although I adore Leo, his “perfect” personality can get a little boring. His versions usually have flaws, though they are the kind that makes you sympathize with him rather than feeling indifferent like with Raph’s anger issues.

Season 1 Leo would be a toned-down Rise Leo. He can be cocky when he succeeds over his brothers and would jokingly comment how he is Splinter’s favorite. However, it doesn’t come without hard work. Leo trains the most out of his brothers and spends most of his time studying fighting techniques. He is not naturally talented in ninjitsu like the past incarnations. Also, Leo’s motivations for training very hard and wanting to be leader is more for himself than anything.

Compared to his brothers, Leo was relatively average. Donnie was extremely smart, Mikey had his kind and joyful soul, and Raph was naturally a great fighter. Leo felt left out and decided that training to be a hero would be his way of standing out. He also believed that being special like his brothers was the only way to get Splinter’s attention; and it kind of worked. With all the progress Leo made, Splinter praised him, and they had a way to connect.

Around the beginning of S1(maybe ep. 5), Leo became the leader though how was different. Instead of Splinter deciding, the brothers did; the explanation was the turtles were a team and should make a consensus as one. This news made Leo ecstatic; he was finally living his dreams. Even so, he didn’t realize the baggage and responsibility a leader had to shoulder. Over the course of the story Leo grows as a great leader and fighter.

The Karai/Leo subplot will follow the 2003 version. He is convinced that Karai is a good person and tries to have her switch sides. There will be romantic feelings but its not the main motivation for both of their actions. I can’t say too much since this plot revolves around Karai more.

   Donatello:

Donnie is a blend of 2003/12 versions. He is intelligent with an extremely high IQ and was a gifted child. However, his intelligence came with a cost; making connections with his brothers and father was really tough for him because of their different interests. This left him withdrawing from everyone and focusing on his inventions. His social skills evolve once the turtles visit the city and meet April. The increasing danger of the Kraang further builds his relationships since communication is important in teamwork, and Donnie’s talent in inventing grew more in the spotlight.

Because of her fascination with Donnie’s smarts and inventions, April and Donnie become good friends as the story continues. Donnie also gets close with April’s best friend, Irma since they are science lovers. At first, Casey irritates him as they have clearly different personality; Casey’s impulsive and extroverted attitude conflicting with Donnie’s plan-based mindset.

Donnie’s love for his family is showcased after witnessing a terrifying, apocalyptic future where his family suffers. Paranoia sets in. His work to calculate the cause of this terrible, and its solution leads Donnie to rarely take care of his needs. He has to learn to trust in others instead of doing things alone.

 Raphael:

Unlike Leo, Raph is instantly gifted in fighting. He has more physical strength than his brothers and would constantly beat them in practice. Since childhood, Raph was Splinter’s “favorite” in the dojo and that definitely got into the red-banded turtle’s head. He would brag to his brothers and jokingly poke fun at their techniques. It wouldn’t affect anyone. Except for Leo.

Raphael’s ego started taking hits once Leo caught up to him and beating him in practice once in a while. It turned into anger after noticing Master Splinter praising Leo more. The tension soured their brotherhood. Unlike most versions, Raph’s anger is fueled by insecurity. He believes that fighting is the only thing he is good at and will get territorial if his spotlight is threatened.

Throughout the story, he learns to move on from his demons and realize his worth.

Family is important to Raph. He can be hard on his brothers yet will do anything to keep them safe, especially Mikey- his positivity must be protected. Casey and Raph become best friends for their similarities and love for fighting- they are impulsive bros.

 Michelangelo:

Mikey’s role is to be the positive and glue of the team. He loves to make people happy and would always do something goofy or kind to do that. His family have nothing bad to say about their youngest member and are very protective of him. The youngest brother doesn’t take ninjitsu as seriously as skateboarding, dancing, or just general fun. Though, he will be serious when the situation calls for it, such as the fate of his family and the world.

Although being an open ear to anyone, Mikey is not open to expressing his negative emotions due to his fear of damaging the family dynamic. It is noticeable when he is upset because he jokes more often and not focus. A lesson he must learn is to accept the good and the bad. Mikey can be reckless, mostly when his brothers rarely let him participate in missions. He wants to prove to his family that he is strong enough to protect himself and others. Reading people is his best skill and takes great pride in it, usually taking on the role of a therapist.

 Splinter/Hamato Yoshi:

I really wanted to take Splinter’s role in the Shredder’s descent to evil in the grayer area. He is usually the victim/innocent party of the story, which can get boring after a while.

Hamato Yoshi was born as the heir to Hamato Clan and childhood best friend of Oroku Saki. The Hamato and Foot clan were allies for centuries and would usually fight by each other’s side. Matters changed when the Foot’s beliefs grew more sinister. This left the Hamato Clan to eradicate their former ally. Splinter saved Saki before he could be killed, though, it came with consequences. Oroku Saki vowed to exact revenge for his fallen home. Growing up, Splinter became one of the strongest martial artists in Japan and married a woman named Tang Shen, later becoming a father to a girl. His world ended once he saw his clan destroyed and his family killed by the renewed Foot Clan.

Yoshi decided to move to New York and forget his old life. Years later, the martial artist noticed strange people caging defenseless animals. He would fight them long enough to protect four humanoid turtles, deciding to keep them after a moment of compassion. Splinter would continuously fight the strange men until a strange liquid turned him into a rat. This turning point banished Splinter and the turtles to the sewers for protection.

Splinter equally loves his sons. He would always make sure to give them equal amounts of love to avoid lasting issues. Though, he has made some mistakes. Emotions were rarely discussed because of Splinter’s unintentionally withdrawn attitude. The rat master wouldn’t instantly notice problems between his sons, and usually didn’t know how to resolve them. No matter what, Splinter is proud of his children and would do anything to keep them safe; sometimes not realizing that it could hurt them.

Hamato Yoshi’s guilt and trauma over the terrible moments in his life would be the main focus of his development.

2012 April Headcanons

-April is not as in touch with her emotions and sees holding your emotions as a benefit since her dad never talked about his emotions.

-Since S1, she has PTSD and dreams of being experimented on the Kraang.

-She had a small crush on Casey in S2, but they decided to be friends since they saw themselves as brother and sister.

-April is very insecure about herself and hides it by trying to act confident (usually overconfident.)

-Dating never interested her until her feelings for Donnie grew in S3.

-While in the farm, April took care of Leo the most because she blamed herself for the invasion happening.

-Her mom’s disappearance had more of an impact on April than she told.

-April has anger issues, but not towards others. Though she unintentionally lashes out at others whenever she’s frustrated with herself. She wants to work on it.

-After the end of the invasion, April would stick close to her dad out of fear that he’ll mutate again.

-When it was revealed that Karai was Splinter’s daughter, April tried returning her tessen to Splinter. Though, he told her to keep it since he sees her as his daughter too.

-After living with the Turtles, April grew more affectionate towards people, especially Donnie.

-For the last year of high school, April decided to take class about the Japanese culture and language, in honor of Splinter. 

-One of the things in her bucket list is to travel the world. 

Katara vs. Lapis Lazuli. Who Would Win?

I’ve been wanting to do some versus posts between characters from different fandoms. The characters I choose have similar powers to make things interesting. 

Although Katara is an extremely strong waterbender, I don’t think she would win.

Her control in water is smooth and strong, but Lapis is able to control the entire ocean as seen in season 1. Lapis also has wings that can take her as far as space. It’s possible Katara can use her abilities to travel upwards, though she wouldn’t be able to make it to space. 

Also, Lapis doesn’t have regular human blood, so Katara can’t use bloodbending to get an advantage.

Winner: Lapis Lazuli

What are your thoughts? 

Comment any characters with similar powers that I can analyze. 

Thanks for reading! 

How I Would’ve Done the Webby Finale Twist

I finally was able to write this post. Sorry if it’s a little scattered.

If you have any feedback, please write them down. I would really like to have you guys’ opinions on this.

Thank you to anyone who likes and responds! 😁💕

                                …………………….

So, Beakley will be working for S.H.U.S.H extensively. She was married and had a child, but the relationships have soured. Her daughter and Beakley had a rough and distant relationship. Her daughter-I'll call her Rose- decided to join F.O.W.L as revenge against her mother. This broke Beakley's heart. Ten years before the show started, Rose was selected for a project called Project April. Alongside Scrooge's, Rose's DNA was used to create Webby. Rose instantly loved Webby and wanted to be a good mother. She decided to betray F.O.W.L. after she learned their plan to use the child. Rose called Beakley and told her to come stop F.O.W.L but was killed before she could tell the reason. Beakley tracks down the call signal to destroy F.O.W.L and save her daughter. She found her daughter's dead body and was willing to do anything to get revenge-even die. Before she could, Beakley found Webby and took her in, not knowing she was her biological granddaughter.

For the finale, all what happened to Webby would happen up until the interrogation. Bradford would show up and still offer telling her the truth if she helped. He revealed that he let Beakley take Webby because she was a failed experiment. The topic of Rose will come up bringing up how much she loved Webby and died for her. Webby would want to know what experiment she was made for, but Bradford told her she has to do something for him first. Webby steps into the room and the contract shows up; she takes it and desperately asked again. Bradford takes the paper and says, "You were made and abandoned for this. As a child, you failed me but now you helped me bring Scrooge's downfall. He locks her up. The reveal and the final "battle" occurs without change. Then, near the end of the episode, Webby and Scrooge talk about what happened, and she says, "Bradford said I was left behind because the contract didn't appear. What changed then?" Scrooge sweetly responds, "I don't know, but since rescuing Beakley together back then, I've seen you as family." Webby smiles and says, "Me too." This leave an open question on whether the experiment worked or was it the power of found family. Webby tells Beakley about what Bradford said and Beakley begins to cry out of knowing that, in some way, she didn’t let her daughter down

My Top 5 Owl House Ships(Most to Least Fav)

My rankings:

Lumity:

Their relationship development was amazingly written- one of the best enemies to lovers stories. Seeing Lumity support one another and grow individually is so sweet. My favorite moment is their kiss in the S2 finale because it cemented how serious the relationship is and it was the first LGBTQ+ kiss on Disney, which is momentous in representation.

2. Huntlow:

I shipped as soon as they met each other. Willow and Hunter are such great support systems to each other- Willow helped Hunter grow as a person and Hunter sees Willow for the amazing person she is. My favorite moment with them was Hunter comforting Willow in “For the Future” because we see how much mutual care they have for each other.

3. Raeda:

Raine and Eda are so sweet together and a great team. I immediately fell in love with their dynamic and banter in Raine’s debut episode. My favorite moments are when they make music together and Raine protecting Eda from the draining spell.

4. Aladarius:

I most likely ship Aladarius because of my headcanon and the potential they have being a couple. I headcanon that Darius had a crush on Alador since their time in Hexside and was heartbroken when Alador and Odalia got married. I think Darius can bring out Alador’s confidence and self-esteem. Alador and Darius would make a really good couple.

5. Gustholomule:

I never cared for this ship until I saw fanart and rewatched scenes with them together which made me see the appeal. Their dynamic is fun so I think it can translate well to romance. I’m fine with them either being a couple or friends.

Darkwing Duck (1990s Version): My New Obsession

Just started watching Darkwing Duck since the 2017 version got me interested. I actually really like it. I had to get used to the zany and not-so-serious hero storyline but it’s fun.

Not every episode hits like the one with DW getting cursed by witch doctors, who were depicted terribly. Some of the earliest episodes also weren’t as great, though it’s based on my taste rather than improper depictions.

What keeps me watching DWD is the relationship between DW and Gosalyn. Those moments always made my heart melt and tear up. My favorite moment was in the episode, “Quiverwing Quack.” DW was forbidding Gos from fighting, and she gets upset, mentioning that he’ll always see her as his baby girl. He quietly replies. “Because you are.” That made my heart melt.

I commend DWD for going this deep into adopted families especially since it was a cartoon. A lot of cartoons are usually wary of depicting “adult themes.” Now cartoons are finally able to be more inventive.

Darkwing Duck is not in my top 10 favorites, but I appreciate it and have a lot of fun watching it.

Really hope Disney pulls through on the reboot so this awesome concept comes back.

Comment your favorite characters and moments from the show! I want to talk to about the show with other fans.  😁💜

My favorite characters: DW, Negaduck, and Gosalyn. 

Favorite episodes: Quiverwing Quack, Time & Punishment, and Life, the Negaverse and Everything. 

Thoughts on Zatanna’s Arc

Not going to lie, Zatanna’s arc is my least favorite so far. The pacing feels slow and the character focus is disjointed. 

I wish Traci and Mary were cut out. They don’t add anything and they take away screen time from more important characters like Zatanna, Doctor Fate, Klarion, and Child. Khalid is the most interesting but mostly because I did some research on who he is in the comics. 

I’m close to wanting Phantom Stranger and Jason Blood/Etrigan, though they could work as smaller note characters. 

Zatanna, Doctor Fate, Klarion, Child, and Vandal should be the core cast of this arc. 

I’m going to be optimistic and hope that this arc will have a great or even good ending, yet my hope is slowly dwindling with each episode coming out. 

April Kunoichi Rant

I’ve seen people complain how April became a kunoichi so fast; I was one as well. But, I just watched City at War(the episode where she becomes a kunoichi), and I missed a detail the first few times I watched it.

Around the very beginning, April is reminiscing about how much she has grown since the first season, and is very happy that she is a kunoichi. Then, Raph mentions that April needs more training to be a full kunoichi; she is only in the beginner levels.

This makes sense.

In the first season, the turtles are considered ninjas but still had a lot to learn. That wouldn’t be different for April.
