I was scrolling on TikTok and I just-

Not my video but I just-

The comments kept making jokes about Leo having a strict skincare routine and I just love that idea.

I wanna add it to the Mutant Mashup Au, DaVinci probably did this skincare routine in secret for a while until Blue caught him. Now they have regular spa days together, it's more official once the Hamato clan see the Hidden City.

Mutant Mashup was created by both @possumsarenice and I.

All right so @billiam-shakespeare has a TMNT au that has Venus raising the Rise boys which has given me the motivation to talk about my own Mom Venus Au.

I actually thought about this AU for a little while before learning about billiam's AU (sry didn't want to tag you twice my dude). Anyway, the AU takes place in the 2012 series. Venus began life as a regular red eared slider that was taken care of by a young woman who's well versed in the art of magic. Venus had a different name too, Mei Phei Chi, and was taken in by the woman because she was lonely.

The woman was happy when she found out Mei Phei Chi had been carrying eggs and had gone to the local vet to see what she had to do to help the turtle. There she encountered the Kraang and a man named Hamato Yoshi. Unfortunately, both got captured and were taken in for experimentation. Hamato Yoshi had been the lab rat for mutagen testing, transforming into a rodent while the Kraang used the woman's blood to gain access to magic.

The Kraang had only taken Mei Phei Chi and her clutch because they were with the two humans at the time. When they realized they could combine the humans skills, the Kraang got the idea to use these turtles as soldiers and mutated the mother soon after she laid her eggs. Mei Phei Chi had more than 8 eggs in that clutch, yet only 4 were good enough for the Kraang.

Eventually, everyone escaped and the woman had used a spell to hide everyone under the sewers of New York, turning the tunnels into a labyrinth. With the threat of capture lurking, she had asked Yoshi to watch over the turtles and teach them how to disappear. The woman would remain topside and bring food and furniture underground to the Hamatos. She would also teach magic to the turtles and encouraged Mei Phei Chi to give herself a new name now that the slider was no longer a pet.

Now that the sewers were more expansive, Venus had dedicated a small room to her lost children. While she may grieve over what she could have had, Venus still very much loves the children she has now and does her best to make sure the boys feel loved.

I wanted to take a nap but couldn't because I don't want to screw up my already skewed sleep schedule

Did some Mutant Mashup Au doodles and kept on forgetting to put them here.

Me and @possumsarenice thought it would be funny if 2012 Raph (Sanzio) and Rise Donnie (Purple) have a "love/hate" relationship? Basically, the two have two settings, either they fight each other like feral hounds or they are each other's ride or die.

The last doodle was just me remembering how the boys call each other. The 2012 boys call their cousins their color nicknames (Red, Blue, Purple, Orange) while the Rise boys call their cousins the painter's last name (DaVinci, Sanzio, Niccolo, and Simoni).

Yoshi and Lou unknowingly named their sons the same thing (Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, Michaelangelo) so when they reunited the boys would fight over "name privileges." It got to the point where the rat dad's had to cancel name privileges and the nicknames just stuck. They still call each other by their given names but when they talk to their cousins they have to say a nickname.

I can't think of anything for my version of Able beyond just him having a gentler voice that's not as extravagant as Caine's. Maybe Caleb Hyles?

The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....

With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...

Animal Tamer!!

Abel!

Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.

There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.

This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.

Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.

Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).

Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!

Me posting at 3am because I drank a large cup of Dr. Pepper from Cinemark:

Ya see this?

Swap out the Sanses and replace them with the Mutant Mashup Boys. Particularly, Killer Sans and Nightmare Sans. Swap them with Blue and Purple.

Blue has no ADHD meds, imagine the chaos-, Purple went to Sanzio's room probably.

I'm having regrets🎶

Ta-da! It's Kaufmo two seconds away from engaging in fisticuffs

(Opposite Kaufmo belongs to campbell_soup70 on insta)

Dw Able. He's a sweet boi.

Ah yes. Caine and Abel meeting a new fellow.

(the new guy is my sister's version of Abel)

Caine is excited, Abel is nervous.

You'd probably get hit by a truck
