OK So Lemme Just—

OK so lemme just—

I know this seems like a wild take but I stick by it. On the surface Raph and Shredder may seem very similar but I truly think Donnie has a bit more in common with him instead

The only thing Raph and Shredder have in common, to me at least, is rage.

Rage isn't all who Shredder is. Rage isn't all who Raph is either, but their anger is different. Raph's more emotional in his anger, more reactive. If someone pisses him off he shows how he feels immediately. He's not the type to bide his time and form a plan. He's also not a very good leader, as seen when he froze up in New Girl in Town.

But Shredder is.

He's cold and calculated in his plans even when blinded by rage and seeking revenge. He's extremely cunning and dedicated to his goals and will stop at nothing to achieve them, even if it involves taking the life of someone who's wronged him, no matter what anyone says or what he has to do.

So, does that remind you of anyone?

Out of all the turtles, Donnie, as far as I know, is the only one to have an arc that revolves around him trying to kill someone out of revenge for a past incident and having to be taught otherwise. Leo hasn't, Mikey hasn't, and Raph hasn't either. From what I know, it's only been Donnie.

And of course I can't talk about parallels without bringing up the love triangle between him, April and Casey.

It's obvious that Donnie doesn't like Casey at first, because he's jealous. Jealous because of his feelings for April and towards himself and how Casey manages to tear everything apart. He saw him as a love rival and feared for the day that April chooses Casey over him, so he lashed out.

Shredder was jealous because Tang Shen chose Splinter over him. He was consumed by his feelings and lashed out as well, although he had more fatal consequences.

Thankfully the love triangle never got to the point of murder obviously, but Donnie and Casey very much fought a lot because of their affection for April, just like Shredder, Splinter and Tang Shen.

Admittedly a lot of this is a reach and maybe a bit surface level but I've wrote enough and figured I should get this off my chest somehow °3°

I'm kinda in the mood for some 12! Donnie angst so I wanna get the ball rolling by mentioning how I think he has more similarities with the Shredder than Raph does :p

…I’M SORRY.

ARE YOU REALLY JUST GONNA DROP THIS IN MY ASKBOX AND WALK AWAY?

Long Character Tag Game Reblog:

You’re stuck in a room with the last character in your gallery. How safe are you?

Thanks for the tag, @poetique823!

I mean, he’s a ninja and a hero, so I’d think I’m pretty safe 💜

Honestly, I think he’s more concerned with what I’ll do to him :)

So, I'm kinda at a point where I'm a bit strapped for ideas, and I figured I should do a poll so it can sort itself out

(I'll make content for the others in order of 2nd and 3rd place)

This is a wheel with 250 fandoms, people, topics, specific words, etc. Spin it once.

Whatever you landed on has completely disappeared from Tumblr. Any posts including or referencing it have vanished, and none will ever be made again. No one else notices its absence, and no one else will ever ask about it.

Phosphophyllite from Houseki no Kuni. They are in the summer uniform, laying in a black diagonal box full of colorful saturated flowers. A white empty box is flipped behind them, both boxes combining into the shape of an X. The background is a swarm of vibrant pinks, purples and blues, as well as black and grey.

Donatello from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. He has a manic expression on his face, and is sweating profusely as he shakily gives a thumbs up. Next to him is an image of a featureless person also giving a thumbs up with a deranged smile and tears in their eyes. A red arrow next to the image points at Donnie.

Michelangelo from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. He is smiling and holding Ice Cream Kitty, who's rubbing her head on his cheek. Her design features more red mixed with the different flavors of ice cream. Next to both of them is a small red heart.

Art that's technically supposed to be AU related but there's not much that gives it away so it's like whatever lol

I have another idea ☝️🤓

I'm so PISSED I wanted to make an analysis about Rise Donnie and 12 Donnie's dynamic and how Rise probably wouldn't even bat an eye regarding 12's stalkerish tendencies but I CAN'T bc STUPID UGLY Tumblr only allows ONE (1) video per post fuck EVERYTHING AGDXFKJ
