“Lighten Up” By Ronald Wimberly

Ones hands can tell the story of how they’ve lived… and how far they have come.

I’m a sucker for Good Dad Splinter ever since I watched TMNT ‘03. That rat was gifted sapience and his immediate instinct was kindness. I love that for him.

Rise Splinter lived a rollercoaster of a life, but as a Hollywood star he remembered the names of all his stunt guys and coworkers, and as a prisoner he cared for the rat that shared his cell. His sons are very close and physically affectionate, I think that says something about how he cares? That’s just how I like to headcanon him :)

It’s interesting to explore the idea that a seemingly monstrous transformation is what pushed him to be a kinder human

WOOO YEAH GIVE IT UP FOR EMMA PROMISEDNEVERLAND

If you ever want some more levity during the council kidnapping storyline consider a new intern mistaking an escaped Donnie hiding from the guards for another exhausted employ and giving him some coffee

I loved this far too much for words lol. So here

Donnie has made a friend : ) (one i might have to draw again b/c they turned out really freaking cute lol)

Thank you!

“i’m the biggest, i gotta keep em safe” “you’re only 17”

yea idk future leo meeting post movie raph and truly realizing how young he really is to have done so much and realizing how brave his own raph must’ve been

the projection raph on its own bc i like it

also tcest dni this is purely familial

tired: mermaids are all women

wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty

Fun thing! Rewatching once more:

So Donnie mentions more then once that he likes dancing.

Big Mama is also shown to like dancing.

Imagine in family web: mama dancing with baby Donnie.

Idk if this was already a thing or not

I think it was brought up before but definitely yes!

I think she used to dance with bitty baby donnie when he was fussy b/c the movement calmed him down. Then when he was a little less bitty, they'd dance b/c he liked it.

Thank you!

These two can hold so much ANGST
