Ah Yes. Caine And Abel Meeting A New Fellow.

Omg Kirby and Carol would be such a blessing, they'd absolutely help the turtles. Hueso and Draxum would absolutely want to help as well, maybe even Big Mama and the Mud Dogs too. Carol might end up creating a group chat for all the adults the boys reformed.

Mutant Mashup thingy

(This has been sitting in my drafts for months rip-)

Since all the turtles and even the Splinters and Aprils grew up in a very different environment, they would obviously act a little different. So here’s my ideas on how.

Mutant Mashup AU by me and @sillyandquest

Oldest to youngest (as said here) DaVinci -> Red -> Sanzio -> Niccolo -> Purple -> Blue -> Simoni -> Orange

Both DaVinci and Red were the protectors. However, DaVinci was more offensive and Red as was more defensive. This was because Red had to worry about accidentally hurting people due to his strength and was pretty intimidating as is, but DaVinci didn’t. So DaVinci is slightly more trigger happy and Red looks for more peaceful situations. It’s not a major change, but if they meet their canon counterparts they’d quickly release the differences. This ties into Red’s mystic abilities too, as his holograms are more shield focused then in canon. Niccolo and Orange and holding their entire families together. As said here, Niccolo would help calm his siblings and cousins down when the Splinters fought, and Orange already had a complex about this in canon. Neither of them would be able to do this on their own (with how big their family is now) so they work together to keep everyone happy (even if they aren’t).

I’ve noticed the 2012 boys are big on teasing each other while the Rise boys are a lot softer to each other (minus Blue and Purple). So I’d imagine in this dynamic they’d both be in the middle ground of their canon dynamics. The Rise boys tease each other a lot more but are still softer then canon 2012, but the 2012 are softer to each other but still tease each other more then canon Rise.

Blue and Simoni and “the face team.” Which mean Blue taught Simoni some manipulation tactics. Simoni still gets tricked by 2012 Chris Bradford, but that was because he was star-struck. He’s actually a lot better at people then in canon. Also, Blue is a lot more insecure about himself because he doesn’t have his “face man” thing to himself and feels he has even less worth :(

Sanzio is slightly better at controlling his anger because Red is teaching him some things, though he’s still angry all the time. Also, he’s a little bit nicer to his little bros because they released that there’s 5 of them and one of him.

Purple also has more self worth issues then in canon because in there, he based his identity off being “the tech guy.” But here, there’s someone else that can do tech. Also, he usually gets put in the “safer” places during missions because Yoshi was overprotective of him because of his soft-shell, and all the 2012 boys (and even the Rise fam to an extent) followed. I could imagine an episode plot where he snapped and goes off to do something really dangerous to prove himself. Maybe going with the other brothers who get babied (Simoni and Orange)

Orange canonically does ballet (see the lair games ep) so I feel like I’m this AU Sanzio would be the kind of sibling/cousin-who’s-basically-a-sibling who would absolutely pummel anyone who bullies his siblings. Also I can see Orange and Simoni both doing ballet so when Simoni starts using his strings he moves around on them in a sort of “dance-y” way.

Since Lou let them sneak off to the surface before Yoshi was ready to let them go, I’d imagine DaVinci has an absolutely unreal amount of “Space Heroes” merch.

Since Simoni can be repelled by Poka, I can imagine Purple has an entire library of “Music genres my siblings/cousins-who-are-basically-siblings don’t like.” The labs were filled with Poka after Simoni activated his mystic powers

Oop, my bad!

I genuinely didn't mean to worry you! I was busy visiting family from out of town, and I ran out of pages in my sketchbook too, so I couldn't draw my boi.

I have a new doodle book now so more posts like this should be coming out more often!

Just thought of something for the boi's.

Whenever Purple gets sick, he tries to power through it and usually goes straight to working on one of his projects. Von Ryan over here hates getting sick, everything feels awful, his nose is congested, and the increase in temperature makes him feel gross. Not a great time in his humble opinion.

Luckily! He gets caught by the Medic Duo-

This time Sanzio caught Blue eating his snacks and proceeded to give chase until they both heard Purple sniffle. It's all good though.

They make a great team when the fam needs help.

@possumsarenice dear God I can see it happening🤣🤣

Danny is not having a very good time.

Poor laddies, they need assistance.

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!

True. I couldn't stop myself from drawing her

I'll fix her shoes another time

New video that talks about the merch for The Amazing Digital Circus just came out-

One scene in it also reminded me of this doodle I drew a while ago-

Surprise doodles I forgot to post!

Ooof, yeah, no. Our boy's would NOT get along. I'll be honest though, my Abel would probably lose the fight. He's a performer and while he is capable of fighting, he doesn't do it often. Your Able regularly uses torture methods which hurt Caine, they'd probably also work on my Abel.

So I had an idea

To be completely honest, I mostly drew this as a treat for me. We don't see a lot of Roll outside of a cutscene or manning the shops and it just makes sense for her to be the player 2 in-game. Yeah we got Protoman and Bass, but c'mon!

I wanna see this lady charging in, full throttle, wooden chair in hand, and smack Wily's newest machine around like a piñata.

So yeah, player 2 au I guess? There's more info below the cut if you wanna read. Be warned, it's a long one.

First I had to ask myself why would Roll even want to fight when Rock does just fine on his own.

Roll's a coward canonically, but she also has a big heart and is willing to fight if she has to. Maybe after the first Megaman game, Rock came back far more damaged than Dr. Light expected. While this does convince him to build Rush, Roll also volunteers to join Rock in this fight.

Dr. Light was super hesitant, but Roll's reasoning was that if Wily was willing to kidnap the Light Numbers to one up Light, who knows what else he would do? Rock already had a hard time fighting them by himself and the Numbers weren't even built to fight. If Wily was smart enough to reprogram civil servant robots, why wouldn't he reprogram robots built to fight?

Eventually, Dr. Light relented and built Roll her own set of armor and a durable broom. She has a shorter attack range, but in exchange she deals way more damage. She doesn't have the copy chip Rock does, so her armor doesn't change color, but her broom does and can change shape/color depending on which weapon is equipped.

Now onto my thought process during the drawing.

When I was drawing the armor, I wanted to keep a couple things in mind. Specifically, what makes Roll so iconic by herself. She has her hair, the green bow, her dress, and her broom/cleaning products.

One other thing I kept in mind was the various depictions of Roll in combat armor. Many fans have made their own and they all look amazing, but I always thought Roll was more of a heavy hitter up close. Most equip Roll with a buster like Rock, which is a good direction to go in, but it wasn't what I wanted to do. Then I looked at Roll's"official" armors, specifically the armor she wore during the Upon a Star movie and the armor she dreamed of from Megaman 11.

I basically put a chest piece and shoulder armor over the Megaman 11 armor, I removed the buttons on it, both of them had a heart motif on the chest which I thought suited Roll very well so I added that. I also used her hat from the Megaman Fangame Perfect Blue. You may notice her arms don't have the bulky arm guards most robot masters have... Yeah, I have no excuse for that, but Splash Woman doesn't have the guards either sooooo.....happy accident?

They're sisters so they matching!!!

I think the colors were the hardest part. I colored the dress to be more red with a pinker red for the heart and middle of the dress. Originally I had the skirt be a solid pink color and the rest of the armor be red and white, but it looked off to me. I knew I had to add her bow which meant adding green and I think that's what threw off the whole thing. The first draft only had a green bow, and I felt I had to add it somewhere else to make it look more appealing and I immediately went to color the buttons on the heart green. A small callback to Zero that doubles as a parallel.

That kinda makes me wonder if Zero was modeled after Roll and Protoman in this au. Also, what would the Megaman timeline even be like with Roll as a fighter alongside Rock? It's always better when someone has your back and Rock and Roll were always meant to be a pair.

They're twins in this au, not a couple. Just had to set the record straight.

Anyway, speaking of Blues. It makes sense why Protoman wouldn't show up as much in this context. Roll is right there, why would Rock need Protoman's help? I imagine he usually shows up only in situations where Rock and Roll are forcibly separated or shows up to both of them individually. Whether it's because he wants to help them be more independent or test the strength of their bond remains to be seen.

I have more to say about this au, I'll try drawing some expressions and go into more detail regarding Rock and Roll's personalities in the au.

This is probably mean but damn. I was already having a bad day I really didn't need this at Peter Piper of all places.

I think it's really weird to see Pomni smile like that, but I guess this isn't the jester we know is she?
