#but looking at this from Leo’s perspective and realizing this is JUST before the ‘why don’t any of you trust me’ line hurts

Fun little silly thought I had about the Lair Games and specifically Leo deliberately losing is all the reasons he could have for doing so.
My favorite headcanon for his main motivation is that Splinter wasn’t proud of him anymore.
I imagine that, in the beginning, winning the Lair Games was Leo’s opportunity to shine. He wasn’t artistic or the baby of the family like Mikey, wasn’t a tech genius who created amazing inventions like Donnie, wasn’t the eldest who was insanely strong and dependable like Raph. So he had to shine somewhere else- anywhere else- and what better way to get attention than to be a winner? A champion?
And then he won too much. And it wasn’t special anymore. He got too big headed, too cocky, he knew this was his element and he ran with it.
Splinter’s words of congratulations slowly petered out. Suddenly, there was no real reason to win.
Winning feels empty when the only one cheering you on is yourself.
So- Leo schemed. And he’s a great schemer, fooling his whole family (and Donnie did deserve a win- people were way happier when he won.)
He even gave up his prized possession! His room!
Though he knows his brothers probably think it’s a bad prize. A terrible one, even.
Leo doesn’t sleep much as is, though. So Dad’s snores were more comforting than anything. It was reassuring to hear him so clearly alive and close by.
Even if the distance between them was larger than Leo’d like.
He’d just have to find something else, something more to show his dad that Leo was someone to trust, to be proud of, to love.
He gets his chance soon after, when he needs to pull off a plan against Big Mama at his dad’s side. Leo can only hope this victory is one that has a lasting effect when his father looks at him with pride once more.
Victory, for Leo, is a pretty loaded term.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rottmnt headcanons#rise leo#everything Leos do almost always ties back to Splinter send tweet#anyway imo if I was Leo winning every lair game I would be bored as hell#and add on to my own dad joining in with my brothers on being disappointed when I do well?#yeeaaah id be my own biggest fan too#tbh Leo’s big brain plays both in Lair Games and Many Unhappy Returns are his real victories#I will say I was proud of Donnie for doing so well!#he deserves a win definitely#but looking at this from Leo’s perspective and realizing this is JUST before the ‘why don’t any of you trust me’ line hurts#wanna make this hurt more?#how about Leo purposefully wanting to lose…but he was a bit miffed that DONNIE out of anyone won#why?#because Leo makes jokes all the time but Splinter says DONNIE is the funny one#because althroughout Many Unhappy Returns Splinter says how he’d prefer if DONNIE were there instead of Leo#makes me wonder y’know? if there’s any scratchy feelings there#nothing that Leo has against Donnie so much as the assumption that Splinter would prefer him over Leo#which if I was Leo…I’d definitely think so even if Splinter absolutely loves his sons equally#just as Donnie probably assumes the opposite as well#splinter bro plz talk to your sons#but yeah victory for Leo imo is equivalent to acknowledgement#just *seeing* him#so he very easily gets wrapped up in the obsession for being the champion#*lou jitsu* always wins and Splinter wants them more like Lou Jitsu so LEO has to always win or…#or…

because i love you — [hoo boys headcanons]
summary: your "thing" with the hoo boys!
author's note: in honor of the pjo series coming out today,,have this rlly rlly short draft from earlier this year! xoxo
Tumblr media
percy jackson — doodling on him
“give me your hand.”
“yes ma’am.”
minutes pass as you doodle gods know what onto percy’s hand. you always resort to this whenever the camp head counselor's meeting begins late—which seems to be every meeting—and giving percy "tattoos" certainly kills time. last meeting, you drew a can of beans and the time before that, was a bouquet of tulips. so honestly his guess being a pair of socks this time isn’t too far of a reach.
“okay, done,” you release his hand, a proud smile gracing your features, “cute right?”
he quirks a brow upon seeing the drawing, “is that…” percy turns his head to the side, gaining better perspective, “is that a flying fish?” 
“wow, you’re good,” you say, giving him a nod of approval, “although, last time you did say that my can of beans looked like a roll of toilet paper…” 
your boyfriend throws his hands in the air, “in my defense, you used a shitty pen so it was hard to tell.” 
“whatever.” 
jason grace — sewing your initials on his clothes
“hi love,” jason says, plopping down beside you on the couch. you give him a bright smile as he places a gentle kiss on your head, “almost done?” 
nodding proudly, you hold up his pair of jeans to show him your work: your initials sewn onto a corner of his back pocket, “yup, just finished actually! what do you think of the color? i think you bought the thread for me on our second date. but i totally forgot i had it until i went digging in my supply box.” 
a grin plasters itself on jason’s face as he nods his head in realization, “i knew the color seemed familiar. i remember wondering why a tiny spool of thread was so expensive. but it’s perfect, i love it,” he kisses your cheek, “all my friends are gonna be so jealous that they don’t have their girlfriends’ initials sewn onto their clothes.” 
you laugh as you imagine jason vehemently bragging about his jeans to all his friends, “tell them i’m charging $50 if they want me to do theirs,” you wink. 
“we’d make more than the stolls’ and their smuggling business if we did that,” he laughs, admiring your work once more. who knew that having your initials on his pants would have such an affect on him, “also, can you do my sweaters and my other jeans?"
you raise a brow, "i might have to start charging you at this point."
leo valdez — impromptu fashion shows
“wow!” you clap enthusiastically, “your outfit even puts paris fashion week outfits to shame!” yes, because a rainbow checkered crop top with a humongous green tutu and a pink boa paired with insanely skinny stilettos beats any and all high fashion runway outfits, “now, leo valdez, can you give us a few words about your new clothing line? and possibly a bit about what it’s like to be so amazingly talented?” you inquire, raising an invisible microphone to his mouth. 
leo oh-so humbly bows and rises with a proud grin, “thank you, thank you, but i honestly must give all credit towards my beautiful muse, y/n, she’s the inspiration behind my new line. and about being so talented, it really is such hard work to be this naturally gifted.”
“ooh, do tell about this ‘y/n.’ i’ve never heard of her but she does sound absolutely gorgeous!” you exclaim, keeping up with the act. 
your boyfriend nods firmly, “oh yes, she’s very, very, very beautiful,” adding a playful wink, “but i must say, she has the worst morning breath i’ve ever encountered!” 
your smile drops and you squint your eyes, “i’m going to choke you with that stupid ugly boa if you don’t take that back right now.” 
“uh ma’am,” leo backs up nervously, clutching his boa, “i’m going to have to call security if you threaten me again.” 
"i'm seriously going to kill you."

Tumblr media
“Welcome home guys,” Mom April was there to greet them when they pulled into their hanger, concern held at bay in her hands clasped together in front of her, Casey and Leatherhead right next to her with mixed levels of outward happiness expressed. “Are the others okay?” She didn’t want to overwhelm them, but she couldn’t keep from asking.
“Thanks April. They’ll be fine. Later please,” Don greeted, the first to rush down the stairs after checking to make sure Raphael and Leo would take care of carrying their two guests. He wasn’t trying to brush Mom April off, he was just incredibly distracted by running through what they needed to take care of their guests for the thousandth time in his mind. “Leatherhead, I need help. Mikey has a bullet in his arm, but I also need to get an IV in Donnie, and check his injuries. Do you think you can take care of Mikey?”
“Of course, my friend,” Leatherhead agreed, refraining from commenting about not being sure who exactly Don was talking about. He was just relieved to see them all returned home in relatively good health. With a request to fulfill, he quickly left to follow Don to the infirmary to prepare it.
“Again?!” Mom April sputtered, hearing Don’s comments and placing her hands on her hips while looking from Don back up to the plane’s doorway.
“Not me! The little Mikey,” Mikey squawked, pausing to catch the blanket that had slipped off Lil Mikey as Raphael came towards the exit and folding it in his hands when Raphael rushed by. Lil Mikey had fallen asleep for a short while on the trip, but once they’d started to land he’d began stirring awake, and was now looking sleepily around as Raphael carried him.
“Hey Raph, you got kids you never told us about?” Casey teased, trying to keep the mood lighter while watching his friend carry the smaller form quickly down the stairs. “Cept he doesn’t look anything like you. Other than being a turtle.”
“Har har Casey. This is Mikey, now move so I can get him to the infirmary,” Raphael responded, barely pausing and ignoring Casey’s protests as he brushed by them to follow Don. He could hear Mom April greeting Leo and Mikey, and knew they would get held up for a moment getting dragged into a quick hug of relief from her. She was at least careful to not squish Donnie, who hadn’t stirred an inch since he’d fallen asleep. It was probably what had Don so on edge to properly check on him. And after having seen the video feed, Raphael couldn’t blame him. But he was semi distracted by Lil Mikey’s openly confused gaze lingering on Casey as they passed, a few dots connecting in his mind.
“Wait… how old are you???” he suddenly gaped, looking at Raphael.
Raising a brow, Raphael briefly wondered why Lil Mikey was asking, but couldn’t figure it out himself. “Something like 32. Why?”
Raphael didn’t expect Lil Mikey’s expression to turn from confusion to open shock, his nose crinkled slightly. “Oh mi gosh your oooooold,” he blurted.
“Hey! Don’t make me drop you. You seem to be feeling much better to be making jabs like that,” Raphael protested, but only mildly offended. He wasn’t that old. Kids just had no sense of time. But he was glad to see some of the spunk had returned to the kid.
“I thought you were Raph’s or April’s age. But you’re like twice as old as me,” Lil Mikey persisted, ignoring Raphael’s comments about dropping him.
“...You’re 16?” Raphael asked, the heavy realization causing his steps to pause a moment. He knew they were kids, but for some reason having a number blatantly placed on their age made what had happened that much darker for him. Strange how his perspective had changed over the years.
“15,” Lil Mikey answered, not bothered by that fact at all. He did notice Raphael’s steps pause for a moment, and glanced to see if something got in his way before looking back to him. “Is that wrong?”
Hearing the concern, Raphael shook his head quickly. “No. Not wrong. I was just thinking I wish I’d gotten a chance to kick Augustine too.”
They had reached the infirmary now, and Don was quick to call Raphael over to where he and Leatherhead were preparing one of their thinly cushioned surgical tables. As soon as Lil Mikey caught sight of it, and realized Raphael was taking him to it, he tensed, cutting off his comments and pressing into him. “Hey, I know it looks scary, but I promise nothing bad is going to happen to you. I’ll stay with you the whole time, okay? Leatherhead is just going to take that bullet out of your arm, and get you stitched up. It won’t take too long, and he’s very gentle. You won’t hurt a bit,” he quickly assured, coming to stop in front of the table but not moving to put Lil Mikey down yet. Instead he wrapped him up a little tighter in his arms, just to reassure him until he felt ready.
“We unfortunately can’t put you to sleep, I don’t like risking using complete anesthesia. But your arm will be totally numb, and Raph can stay with you and talk to you the whole time to keep you distracted,” Don started to explain as he bustled around, noticing Lil Mikey’s rising discomfort. “Depending on how much damage there is, it’ll only take around 40 minutes. You’ll just have to lay on your stomach the whole time. Leatherhead is only going to remove the bullet, and clean up the injury, nothing more, I promise. None of us have any interest in your insides for any reason other than to help you.”
“Did you have to say that last part?” Raphael asked, wrinkling his nose and squinting at Don. He knew surgical tables were usually not a nice sight for people like them, but he didn’t think it was a good idea to put the darker reason out in the open like that.
“What? It’s true, and you know that’s what he’s thinking,” Don huffed, squinting back at Raphael before rushing to a cupboard nearby to grab a sterile pillow.
Lil Mikey couldn’t help the tiny snicker that escaped at the exchange, which was enough to get Raphael to not quip back as his brother. Instead he pulled a stool over with his foot and sat down on it, keeping Lil Mikey held close. “I’ll keep you close until you’re ready. The bleeding stopped while you were asleep, it’s just a lot more comfortable in the long run to not have a bullet in you. Plus we want to make sure it doesn’t get infected.”
Lil Mikey knew that they only wanted to help him, but while Leon watched a lot of surgery videos all the time, none of them had ever needed anything more than what could be taken care of completely externally. It was scary to think about someone cutting into his arm. Even without it being for nefarious reasons. “Have…you guys done this before?” Lil Mikey eventually asked, keeping his cheek pressed against Raphael while he thought things through. What about it was scaring him? If he could just get that addressed then he figured he would be okay.
“Me? I’ve had some removed before, but never been the one doing the removing. That’s always been Don and Leatherhead. They’ve gotten so good that the wounds don’t even scar much anymore,” Raphael assured. He would have shown him the places he’d been shot before, but he didn’t fully remember where he’d been hit anymore, and the scars were long gone.
Lil Mikey gave another soft snort. “I don’t think that’s a good thing.”
“Why not? It means it heals really well,” Raphael returned, genuinely confused why it wouldn’t be a good thing that Don and Leahterhead were good at dressing gunshot wounds.
“...But it means you guys have been shot a lot,” Lil Mikey clarified, falling quiet while that sank in, then looking up to Raphael when he didn’t answer immediately.
“...Yeah,” Raphael admitted, resting his cheek on Lil Mikey’s head, having never really thought about it. “I don’t mind though. It usually happens because we’re protecting someone else. So it’s worth it.”
The response was simple, but it ended up showing a lot of Raphael’s personality to Lil Mikey. Enough that he felt the rest of his concerns almost completely fade. It was just like his own big brother. Being so protective of other people. He’s also realized most of his fear was stemming from having never willingly let someone cut into him before. It happened all the time in shows and stories, especially the medical based ones that he sometimes watched with Leon. But there had been a minimally vocalized conditioning with them to never let anyone try that with them. It was strange to have someone other than Leon taking care of him, but Lil Mikey found that once he realized why he was afraid most of the fear melted away. “...Okay. I think I can do it then…” he spoke up hesitantly, 
“Really?” Raphael spoke, mildly surprised it hadn’t taken that long to calm the teen down about the procedure. “I’ll move you to the table then. If you start feeling uncomfortable again just let me know.”
Standing back up, Raphael carefully set Lil Mikey down on the surgical table and helped him lay on his belly, briefly leaving his side to grab a sterile blanket to put over his legs. As he was doing so Leatherhead approached with a tray of utensils, properly scrubbed up and covered, and with a non threatening smile.
“Hello little one. I promise I won’t hurt you,” Leatherhead greeted, making sure to stop where Lil Mikey could see him.
As soon as he caught sight of who Leatherhead actually was, Lil Mikey’s eyes grew wide in awe as his mouth dropped. “Ohhhhhhhhh…giant alligator…,” he whispered, completely enthralled by the new person.
Raphael had to snicker, having not expected that reaction from the kid, but not finding it a bad one. “Crocodile, actually. But still pretty cool, huh,” he corrected, giving Leatherhead a smirk. He would have nudged their friend, but that would have meant he’d have to go get washed and changed again.
“Uh huh,” Lil Mikey nodded, obediently lowering his head onto the pillow.
“You flatter me,” Leatherhead sheepishly chuckled, pleasantly surprised by the reaction. “I’ll have to strap your arm and torso in place so you don’t accidentally hurt yourself by moving around. And I’ll put a curtain across your shoulder so you can’t see what I’m doing. Is that okay?”
“...Yeah…,” Lil Mikey nodded again, watching Leatherhead move to the otherside of him until he was out of sight. His attention then snapped back to Raphael, the excited shine still in his eyes. “He’s so cool! Is he a yokai?”
Raphael could only chuckle again, and shake his head. “Don’t think so. What’s a yokai?”
He had been promised to stay with Lil Mikey to talk to him and distract him, so talk they did. First about the yokai, and then the Hidden City, which led to Raphael telling Lil Mikey about their version of the Battle Nexus, that had Lil Mikey excitedly commenting about how they had the same thing, only to find out the rules behind them were completely different. It was easy to talk to the kid, which made it easy for Leatherhead to do his job. Even if 40 minutes actually ended up being an hour, neither of them noticed.

ok i'm gonna layout the events post-sunny's totem pop because i was watching it back and the details of it actually confused me a little. when i saw it live, i assumed tallulah was calling leo a cheater for hitting sunny after the totem popped, but watching back blurred that a little for me and i'm wondering if other people have any thoughts on it?? it's now unclear to me who tallulah was calling a cheater since she seems to be like firmly cheering on leo the whole time and didn't really look at sunny at all. sunny and tallulah's relationship has been in a weird spot for a while ago (and this adds a whole 'nother layer to it even tho i think from her perspective tallulah could just be supporting her sister leo who is often left out and not really thinking about sunny at all) and i could write a whole essay about what i think is going on there. but like who is tallulah calling a cheater? leo for hitting after the fight ended? sunny for breaking leo's totem? why is what leo did okay then? did she see who started it? so many unanswered questions anyway this is long and unnecessary so i'll put it under a read more, i got half way through doing this before deciding it was pointless but i figured i might as well post it anyway so everyone has the play by play and can see what i mean lmao
Tumblr media
ok so the totem pops. sunny and leo both hit each other once immediately afterwards (still in the momentum of the fight) then sunny backs away and turn to leave. it's worth noting here that tallulah is on leo's "side" of the arena cheering. she moved basically immediately when leo enters the arena (unlike every other match where she stayed with the group in the centre/centre-left) and stays there the whole match. it could be her wanting a different angle but i'm not sure.
Tumblr media
leo follows sunny, swinging her stick, and hits her as sunny is leaving (note: sunny is unarmed here but she switched to the bread to eat like the same second leo hits her so i don't think leo wasn't purposefully hitting her unarmed but she could tell sunny was leaving) (also note: pepito's been on the floor since before the floor ended, poor baby does not like watching the sisters fight, also got told off by guard at the beginning for opening door like pepito wanted to follow pepito's sisters in 🥺🥺)
Tumblr media
leo then spams hits sunny back (~4 times) as she switches to a stick. ramon starts rushing forward. sunny starts hitting back (~3 times) and pops leo's totem. she then turns and leaves just as ramon comes between them. he switches to an enchanted axe briefly facing leo but quickly swaps back to stick, seeming to realize the fight's over for real now. leo starts victory dancing as sunny exits the room entirely. ramon exits quickly after (and stands to the side thereafter). cucurucho laughs and says good like the drama-loving asshole he is.
Tumblr media
tallulah puts down her sign after sunny exits the room (she's just behind empanada here), but sunny doesn't read it since she's facing away the whole time. it's worth noting as far as i can tell (from audio and a brief frame with the maraca in it) that tallulah only moves towards the centre after the leo's totem breaks. pepito goes in towards leo. empanada comes and throws bread at sunny (it is empanada not tallulah i checked). sunny starts writing a sign
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
after her sign's down, tallulah then rushes into and jumps excitedly at leo and throws bread at her. she then comes out and breaks her 'CHEATER' sign (which neither sunny nor leo read) before returning back to leo. em asks if sunny's okay and sunny finally finishes her sign she started typing when she first exited. she leaves it up about 5 secs (we never see it RIP)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
leo puts down a sign saying 'SLAAAAAAAY SOPORTA' and tallulah follows up also saying 'SOPORTAAA'. I'm not great at Spanish but soporta usually means like 'support' but i think (and i'm also not super familiar with mexican slang) this is also another way of saying like la queso which is drag slang for 'like it or not' (kinda idk how to translate it)?? i'm not sure tho. if someone knows better please tell me.
anyway so that's that. all the other eggs basically just watch the aftermath or aren't paying attention. ramon's intereference and pepito cheering for both but congratulating leo on her win after and empanada supporting sunny after all make sense to me as reactions. but tallulah confuses me a bit. it seems like she is pretty supporting leo during the fight and after. she doesn't act like she thinks leo did something BM afterwards (which i think she'd at least admonish her if she did even if she was still excited leo won). neither sunny nor leo sees the cheater sign and she breaks it fairly quickly. did she regret it? did she think sunny got to read it? did she not want leo to see it? it's such a small thing but that cheater sign baffles me.
there are so many intricacies to the sunny's relationships with tallulah and leo that i think were all made worse by this fight lmao. the little girl drama i live for it @.@ can't wait for qsmp to return so i can have more to do than analyze a 3 min fight for 2 hours

I don't even know what the cards are saying, but this is the message, I'm sorry. here are the cards: page of wands reversed, king of wands, the empress reversed, wheel of fortune reversed, ace of pentacles reversed, 10 of wands.

Chapter 2 of my reincarnation fic!
@rottmnt-background-screenshots
@daboyau
“Okay, this clearly is something beyond my scope.” Donnie comments as he watches the recording from last night.
This was after he saw the readings he got were nearly incomprehensible.
The recording showed them all having their markings glow throughout the night.
There was also the fact that each of them remembered the dream from their own perspective.
The exact same dream.
“Draxum could probably tell us what’s happening.” Mikey suggests.
“Normally I’d keep pushing for science, but I’m worried that this unregulated use of our mystic powers may cause damage like it did to our arms, so I’m in agreement for calling him.”
“Should we tell dad first? This might be some Hamato kind of thing.” Raph mentions.
“Could save us a call. Let’s go see if he’s awake.” Leo leads the way to the movie room.
They find him watching his usual commercials.
“Dad, we gotta talk.”
“What is it, Red? Did one of you boys break something again?”
“No, uh…..we shared a weird dream where we were all different people in a different place that looked pretty old.”
Splinter tenses and shuts off the projector, which immediately makes everyone realize how serious this could be.
“Tell me more about it.”
The turtles explain how the dream went from their different viewpoints.
Splinter frowns and rubs his beard.
“I do not believe this is anything dangerous, I think I know what’s going on.”
“So it’s a Hamato thing like Raph thought?”
“No, not exactly Orange. Maybe not entirely. Do you know what reincarnation is?”
“That’s what Tora was talking about, something about another life.” Raph answers.
“There’s one belief that when we die, we could come back as anything, even another person. These dreams might actually be memories.”
Mikey gasps loudly.
“We’ve been a family before!” He squeals and pulls Leo into a hug.
Leo dramatically moves him away.
“No way, apparently Donnie was your favorite! Go hug him!”
Mikey whimpers and gives him the biggest sad eyes he can muster.
“Kidding, kidding!” Leo quickly brings him back into the hug.
“I thought our ancestors all became ghosts after they died, so how did they become us instead?” Raph questions.
“It’s only a possibility they were Hamato. They could have been anyone. We should try to contact Karai, she would know more.” Splinter answers.
“I can’t wait to see gram gram again. It feels like it’s been forever since our last talk.”
“According to my records it’s been….2 weeks.” Donnie corrects.
“Still way too long! Let’s do it!” Leo encourages.
They all go to the area in the lair they set up specially for contacting their ancestors. It was usually just for talking to Karai since Splinter was still angry the rest of them for trying to make his sons martyrs, but his mom was also summoned for some nice chats from time to time.
They sit down on their color coded pillows that were put together close to each other in a circle. All at once, they activate their ninpo and focus on bringing Karai out. Her form slowly appears in the center.
“Hi Gram-Gram!” Mikey greets her with a smile.
“Hello boys. I’m glad to see you all again.”
“It’s good to see you too Gram-Gram, but we’ve got somethin kinda serious to ask about.” Raph comments.
“The dreams, they’re worrying you.”
“Yeah! How’d ya know?”
“When your ninpo activated, I was able to sense what was going on. Please fill me in on the rest.”
The turtles tell her what they told Splinter.
“Your father mentioned the mystic warriors that trapped the Krang, yes?“
They all nod.
“They were 500 years before my time, but it was strongly believed that they started the Foot Clan.”
“Hold on, pops said the Foot Clan worshipped the Krang! Why would they worship who they were tryna stop?”
“The Foot Clan only started worshiping the Krang after they gave the armor to my father.”
“Wait….I’m not good at math, but if the key was made 1,000 years ago and it trapped them, how were there Krang to give your dad armor?” Leo scrunches up his face.
“Some Krang managed to avoid being captured. Enough to cause centuries worth of damage….but not enough to get back the key.”
“There’s been Krang here this entire time….?”
“I don’t know what happened to them after I sealed my father away, so unfortunately I don’t have much information. What I do know is that the ancestors before we became the Hamato clan aren’t the same. Despite the mystic energy, it’s only once we separated from the Foot that we could cultivate the Ninpo. My father himself only appears because of the Ninpo used to free him.”
“Then what you’re saying is that getting our ninpo back could have helped uncover latent mystic energy from before it was actually ninpo. It shook free memories and our ninpo helps us see it all at once.” Donnie explains.
Karai nods.
“Raphael possibly experienced bits and beforehand because he was the first to dig deep. Now that you all have had major moments, Leonardo especially, they are flowing through. Because they’re not channeled, they are random and scattered still. Through meditation and shared ninpo, you could see them clearly and without having to sleep to do it. Some memories may only come through based on the person you’re sharing ninpo with.”
“Thanks for the advice Gram-Gram. We’ll start practicin.” Raph smiles at her.
“Stay safe and be careful.” She vanishes into green light.
“We should try it out now! I want to see more of what we were like!” Mikey shouts excitedly.
“I’m with Mikey, small Raph is hilarious.” Leo smirks.
“This may help be gather more data about this whole situation so I agree too.” Donnie states.
“Go on and try. I will stay with you in case something goes wrong.” Splinter adds.
“Let’s do it then!” Raph stands up and he helps his brothers bring their seats closer together.
Splinter sits outside the new circle and the turtles hold hands before closing their eyes. They each dig into their ninpo, causing their marks to light up like before. Thoughts of the lives they led before transform the dark in front of them into a bright and cloudless day. There’s a dirt road in front of them as well, one that’s moving. It seemed they were hitching a ride on a cart that was mostly occupied with hay.
Kosuke and Tora both kick their feet up and down as they sit together on the edge of the cart. Aoi yawns as leans against the hay and Tomo frowns while looking at the younger two of their group.
“You’re sure that you know how to earn money?”
“How do you think I’ve kept me and Tora fed? I told you not to worry. I’ve got everything under control. Now that I’m your big brother-“
“We’re the same age.”
“But I’m bigger, so I’m the biggest brother, and that means I take care of all of you.”
“They won’t take us to any orphanages?”
“I’ll be honest with you, the orphanage didn’t care that you left. They probably filled up the spaces there already. None of them want to take in any kids they don’t have to. We can stay together. That’s a sworn promise.”
“Don’t promise something you can’t keep.”
“That’s why I don’t! I can make sure no one gets taken away. Just like I can keep us fed. We’re already almost there.” He points towards a farm.
“A farm? What will we do there?”
“Anything they need us to. If they don’t need help then we go to their neighbors.”
“Ugh, physical labor….”
Aoi laughs.
“I’ll be doing most of the heavy lifting.”
“But I help too!” Tora interjects.
“That true, she is a force to be reckoned with. I saw her carry a hay bale twice her size.”
“Really!? No wonder we got that boulder down! You’re so strong!” Kosuke’s eyes light up.
Tora moves her sleeve up and proudly flexes her arm.
Kosuke pokes her arm in awe.
They eventually get off the cart before heading towards the house. Aoi introduces himself and everybody else then asks about any work they could help out with for money.
To Tomo’s surprise, the farmer eagerly accepts. Aoi is sent to take care of the farm animals while the rest of the three harvest fruit.
Tora pouts heavily as she picks pears off the tree and places them in a basket.
“No fair….they won’t let me help him because I’m a girl.”
“I’m surprised anyone had let you before.” Tomo comments.
“It’s because I was wearing a boy’s yukata. In my next life I want to be a big and strong boy like aniki.”
“You could grow bigger and stronger as a girl! So big and strong that you’re better than any boy.” Kosuke suggests.
Tora’s eyes sparkle like everything was just made clear.
“You’re a genius!”
Kosuke smiles widely.
They only stop working once the sun goes down. The three of them head to the house and see Aoi already there, talking to the farmer again. When he sees them, he ends the conversation and rushes over.
“Guys! He said we could sleep in the barn for tonight.”
“What? How’d you convince him of that?” Tomo questions.
“Aniki is the best at talking to people.” Tora says proudly.
“That’s not a real answer.”
“No worrying about how! Let’s just get to sleep.” Aoi walks past them and to the barn.
Tomo narrows his eyes as he watches him again and is the last to follow him. The farmer’s wife was nice enough to give them futons to sleep on before leaving them to rest.
Kosuke was snuggled into Tomo’s side despite the summer heat. Tora was already fast asleep, splayed out with her limbs on top of Aoi’s.
“How do you sleep like that?” Tomo doesn’t move his head, but he can see it clearly.
“You get used to it. It’s part of being a family. Goodnight!” Aoi closes his eyes.
Tomo sighs and does the same.
It’s difficult for him to actually fall asleep. He’s aware that everything is okay, that they’re safer than they had been for a while.
So why can’t he sleep?
After what could have been hours, he’s never sure when this happens, he finally opens his eyes and looks over back at Aoi.
All he sees is Tora hugging an empty futon.
Panic fills him as he sits straight up, still avoiding waking up. He notices that the barn door is closed. It only made everything seem weirder. He quickly leaves the barn and glances around outside to see if Aoi was nearby.
No luck.
He closes the barn door behind him and starts searching the whole farm. Once getting to the chicken coop, his seeking ends.
Aoi is in the middle of a yawn but jerks up in surprise.
“Tomo! Whaaat are you doing here?”
“That’s the question I have.”
“Just….getting some air. Couldn’t sleep.”
“Your words say one thing but your yawning says another.”
Aoi sighs.
“They only let us stay here because I agreed to guard their animals. Something has been spooking through chickens.”
“You worked harder than us today, why didn’t you ask for someone else to do it?”
“Because there’s no way I’m letting any of you get hurt if it’s a big animal! The rule is that it’s me before anyone else in this family.”
“I don’t recall agreeing to that.”
“Too bad, biggest brother makes the rules.”
“For the last time, you’re not-“ Tomo looks behind him and freezes.
Aoi turns around and sees glowing eyes in the darkness. His arm immediately shoots out and across Tomo’s chest.
“Get behind me!”
“I can’t just-!”
Whatever is in the darkness starts coming closer, fast, and Aoi throws himself over Tomo. His eyes shut right and he tenses as he curls protectively around him.
“…..Aoi. It’s okay. You can get up.”
He opens his eyes.
“Why?”
“It’s just a cat.”
Aoi quickly moves away from him and sees the cat casually stroll away.
“The gods are cruel.” He sighs heavily in relief.
“…..You really meant everything you said.”
“Of course I did. I really don’t know you or your brother, but when we became kenzoku, that wasn’t something to just say. We’re in this together now. Even if I wasn’t older than you, I’d still want to protect you. I’d want to help.” He smiles.
“I still feel like….the kind of person you are….the way you act, you don’t really exist. You can’t.”
“Then I guess I’ll just have to keep proving I do.”
Tomo smiles back softly.
“Now come on, you should get back to sleep.”
Aoi starts pulling him along.
“I don’t think so. Stay here.”
Tomo makes him let go and rushes off. Aoi stays where he’s standing, confused.
That is until Tomo brings their futons back with him and lays them on the ground.
“We’re sleeping in shifts.”
“But-“
“No buts. It’s the only way I’ll be able to get rest. You sleep first before anymore cats get here.”
Aoi chuckles.
“Okay, okay, deal.”
He lays down and Tomo sits upright on his.
“Goodnight, for real this time.” Aoi closes his eyes.
“Goodnight.” Tomo looks at him and watches him actually fall asleep.
He then looks back at the barn where everyone else is sleeping.
“And thank you.”
The turtles snap out of the memory and open their eyes.
“Ohmigosh, we were so cute!” Mikey squeals.
“That cat part was pretty funny, right Donnie?….Donnie…?” Leo’s eyes widen as he looks at him.
He’s crying.

Casey may be one of the biggest parts of Leo’s arch
I am actually having a lot of fun trying to guess what Casey’s purpose is in the movie before it comes out, specifically what it might mean for Leo
Tumblr media
Let’s start with what is different about this Casey and what may have stayed the same (again going off of observation nothing is confirmed). This incarnation of Casey Jones seems vary straight forward and to the point. A core trait of Casey is that he is…simple, not as in stupid, as in he never really needs to over think anything he does and has a good natural sense of right and wrong. He is also a good remedy for the over thinker pointing out an easier solution. Often times coming off as brash, as he never explains things people need to hear gently, just says it like it’s obvious
I think this may come into play while working on the team
Tumblr media
Casey knows what an effective Leo, Mikey, and possibly Donnie ( depending on when they lost him) look like, and knowing Casey Jones as a character he is probably going to keep forgetting that they are teenagers and completely different people from the ones he lost. But I believe it will have both good and bad sides to it. The good side is that he provides a fresh perspective to what they can do, and have faith in them because he has literally seen what they are capable of. This may even help their confidence in themselves
The bad side may be mostly on Leo’s end, because we know his feelings on being a leader. Though judging by how comfortable he looks (or how hard is trying to look) in Raph’s chair. I Think Casey combined with the urgency of the situation gave him the confidence to at least try. But that will probably start going down hill the more things get out of control
Now what’s different about this Casey? Now technically we can’t tell yet, but one big difference I haven’t seen anyone point out yet is that he is not playful. Like here
Tumblr media
I just thought it was weird that he didn’t have million smart ass remarks, even if humor was all he had he wasn’t going to let the other person get the better of him. So it’s really weird that he was still straight forward and to the point and not his usual snarky self we see in past incarnations. It could be a product of being raised in apocalyptic hell, courtesy of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. And that left him to be more honest and straight forward rather then sarcastic and brutal honesty
Tumblr media Tumblr media
around future Leo his face is so open, most likely because he trusts him, but it gives me a sense that he is an honest person in general. You can see every emotion he is feeling across his face (I wonder if that’s part of the reason for the mask) the vary first thing I liked about him where his facial expressions
I still feel like their relationship is gonna get worse then better then go back down before they find solid common ground. Because let’s be real their situation is emotionally fucked. What’s fun for me is thinking about small in between moments.
1) Leo saying something familiar and Casey conversing back as if he has known him for years and doesn’t realize till he notices Leo silently staring at him that this is the first time they had this conversation
2) Leo seeing Casey look at him with open admiration and not knowing how to feel about being looked at like he is someone special
3) don’t know why I am partial to the idea of it slowly dawning on Leo and the others that Leo was a Father for Casey, but I am.
4) Leo does something that causes a flashback to future Leo and watching present Leo gives him insight to why he was the way he was

Semi-Conscious
Title:  Semi-Conscious     Day: Febuwhump 2023 Day 16: Semi-Conscious   Fandom:  TMNT 2003 Word Count: 1388   Author: aquietwritingcorner/realitybreakgirl Rating:  T   Characters: Leonardo     Warning: Major Character Injury. But you should have expected that.     Summary: As he tried his best to hold onto consciousness, Leo could feel the world around him fading. But he couldn’t pass out yet. Not while his family was still in danger. He struggled and fought for his consciousness and knew that he was fighting a losing battle. A look at The Shredder Strikes Back from Leo’s perspective.   Notes:     ff.net || AO3
________________________________
Semi-Conscious
The world was a nauseating blur around him. It was a cacophony of sounds and colors and the almost overwhelming knowledge that he was needed, that if he didn’t keep pushing, that he and his family were going to be in serious trouble. He knew that he wasn’t fighting anymore, he knew that his family was around him, but aside from that, it was hard to keep track of what was happening.
Loud, panicked voice floated above him, and he latched onto words and phrases, tones and pitches, trying to make sense of it all. The need to pass out was almost overwhelming. It was sheer panic at the idea of Raphael going out and facing the same fight he did that let himself claw his way back to further consciousness.
“He’s back… the Shredder…”
It took far too much energy to say even that much, and Leo, despite his struggles, felt himself slipping back towards unconsciousness. Dimly, he heard the sounds of fighting, of his brothers, of his father, of April. He struggled to make sense of it. He felt hands on him, moving him. He fought for consciousness again, struggling against his own body. His family was in danger! He couldn’t stay here. He could still fight!
“M-my swords… where are my swords…”
He was having trouble making sense of anything but knew that his family was in trouble. They needed him. He needed to get up. He needed to fight.
“Hang on, bro. We’re getting you out of here.”
He could hear Mikey’s voice, although he wasn’t entirely sure where his brother was. But Mikey didn’t answer his question, and Leo chaffed against that. He couldn’t just lay here. He needed to be up, to be fighting. If he had his swords, he could help!
He struggled to stand and felt more than realized that April was helping him up. Why was she still here? He tried to pull away from her. He could protect her, at least. “I can walk.”
She refused to let go. “Leo, lean on me.”
The world swam before his eyes, narrowed to him and April. He knew there was more happening, but this was all that he could see right now. “April, leave me, get away if you can. This is our fight, not yours.”
“Not my fight?! Look Leo, we’re all family now. I could never run out on you. Let’s go.”
She pulled him along with her, and he had no choice but to follow. Unconsciousness was reaching for him again, and he staggered in her grasp. He wasn’t sure how much longer he could stay conscious as he attempted to fight against his body. He only became more aware when April let out a short scream, and he blinked, only to realize that the door to the stairwell was full of ninja. She backed up, but Leo mustered his strength and kicked out, shutting the door.
The world spun after that, and Leo felt April move him more than he helped himself.  He was starting to lose his battle with consciousness. Leo leaned heavily on April as she led him out and down the stairs. His world narrowed to the stairs as he was moved down them, his brothers’ banter phasing in and out of his awareness. He tried hard to keep his consciousness as April led him down, as his family fought, but it was harder and harder, until he was barely aware.
By the time he felt himself getting ripped from her grasp, he was barely with it. He could hear Hun’s voice, but there was absolutely nothing he could do. When Hun threw him, he was too out of it to even try to land properly. The crash left him even less aware than before, and his ears rung. He felt Raph pick him up, heard his brother’s voice but that was all he knew before he felt Raph throw him to the side. The world swirled around him, dizzying, and he lost all track of what was happening.
“It’s him! Just like Leo said!”
Leo tried to stir at Mikey’s words, realizing that his family was around him. But who was Mikey talking about? Leo struggled to think, struggled to even open his eyes.
“You freaks have been a thorn in my side long enough. No one opposed the Shredder. And now I shall have my revenge for our last encounter. Say farewell to each other while you still can.”
A ripple of fear went through Leo. Panic tried to stir him back to consciousness. Leo shook.
“Oh yeah, Mr. Spikey Pants, you’re the one who should be saying farewell to, uh, yourself…”
It was too much. His brother’s words faded into the background as his father and brothers stepped forward into battle and April moved back with him, encasing him in her arms. There was nothing he could do. He heard the clash of weapons, the sound of bodies hitting the ground, the clack of shells, the voices of his brothers. He heard something crash, and struggled to open his eyes when he recognized the voice of Casey Jones.
It was a losing battle. Leo wasn’t able to get himself to move, to get himself awake. He heard Hun again, felt April curl around him to protect him from the big man. He struggled to try to do something, anything, but couldn’t even manage to say anything. No, no, if she got hurt protecting him, it would be all his fault! He had to do something—anything! It was only the arrival of Casey that saved April, and Leo hated the fact that he hadn’t been able to even try to defend his friend.
Everything was just getting worse. Even with him only being semi-conscious, he could tell that. Everything was going downhill. He had to do something, and so he fought, hard, against his body. If he didn’t do something, if he wasn’t able to help, then everyone would die! They might die even with his help, but they might not, and he had to do something! He pushed, trying to get himself up, trying to fight, to protect April, to join with his brothers.
“Leo, you can’t do this!” April said, still hovering nearby.
Leo grit his teeth and tried not to lean on her. “I have to. They need my help.”
And yet, he couldn’t do it. For only a moment he was upright and then he fell back down, unable to keep himself up, unable to do anything more than look up as the Shredder approached and prepared to strike him again. His instincts screamed at him to move, but his body was simply not responding, his consciousness swimming in and out. He had to do something! He knew that he did! If he didn’t then he would die, April would die, his brothers would die!
And yet there was nothing he could do.
At what felt like the last second, his father intervened. He knew that the Shredder said something to his father, but the world swam before Leo’s eyes. He shook his head, refocusing as he watched his father battle the Shredder, the Shredder gaining the upper hand.
No. This wasn’t right. His family was fighting for their lives! Leo couldn’t sit by and do nothing! Gathering every ounce of his will power, he stood and charged a cabinet, knocking it over and onto the Shredder. And then his body gave out again and he fell back, April catching him.
Things blurred once again. He could hear shouting, hear that there was some sort of plan in it, felt himself being moved. And then, suddenly, everything was muffled, quieter. He could tell that it wasn’t over, though. He strained to hear was happening, fought against himself to try to stay aware of everything that was happening. Panicked voices floated over him, and he felt himself being hauled up, and pulled around. It was becoming too hard to keep track of what was happening.
All he knew was that it was too much. He fought against it, tried not to give into unconsciousness. But he had used up the last of his energy, he had fought past his limits. As semi-consciousness gave way to unconsciousness, all Leo could do was hope that he had done enough.

Those Eyes: Rise! Leo X OC
Tumblr media
Chapter 9
The next few weeks go smoothly. Leo and I have hung out almost every day doing whatever we could. We decided on making Mondays and Thursdays movie nights since nothing else productive happens on those days. Every other day, activities vary from trying different pizza restaurants, basketball (which I still kick his ass at), him teaching me how to skate at the skatepark, and so many other things. We’ve also been doing this truth or dare—minus the truth—type thing where we dare each other to do something stupid or risky. If Leo turns his dare down, any food I desire is on him for the next day. If I turn a dare down, Leo gets 20 minutes to go through my room and ask me an unlimited amount of questions that I have to answer.
So far, I’ve only lost once while he’s lost about three (3) times. It’s not his fault, though. His dares are often things he would never do but I have no problem doing. Last week, he dared me to pretend to steal something from the store and act dumb when confronted by an employee. Unbeknownst to him, I do that literally all the time. But I actually steal something and I actually had stolen from that store that night. He pretended to be impressed, but I don’t think he liked that that much. I keep forgetting he’s a hero.
The following night, I dared him to go into an expensive clothing store and try on an outrageously expensive suit to then take a selfie in. To my surprise, he actually did it. Without thinking, I asked why he didn’t walk out with it on—like just take it. His face contorted into a half smile and said a quick “what?”. I just laughed it off once I realized my mistake.
So what if I’m a little bit of a kleptomaniac? It’s not like I’ve ever stolen anything super expensive. Well, besides that one white snake ring but it was staring me in my eye begging for me to take it. And it was only a couple hundred when I looked it up, so who cares?
Anyways, I also noticed that the Lieutenant still hasn’t said anything to me. Not an alert or meeting or anything. It worries me a little bit and maybe it’s a little less freeing than I thought. Whenever Leo isn’t around, I feel like I’m being watched. I have to turn my phone all the way up with my earbuds in to forget the icky feeling. For whatever reason, I feel The Foot has something big planned and it’s going to play out soon.
* * *
On this chilly night, Leo purposes me another dare. He points to the very top of a skyscraper with a sly smile on his face.
“I dare you to climb up there. To the very top. And then take a selfie when you’re all the way on top.”
I scoff. “Are you kidding me? I’ve never gone up that high. And what if I fall?”
“Relax, the great and powerful Leonardo will catch you.” He winks at me.
“More like the smug and arrogant Leonardo.” I whisper under my breath before returning to my normal speaking voice. “Alright, alright. I’ll do it.”
We rush over to the tall glass-covered building. I take in it’s size, which was much taller than I initially thought it was.
Why did I agree to this?
Leo notices my hesitance and lays a hand on my shoulder. “Now, it’s okay if you’re too scared to do it. That pink journal was looking pretty interesting if I do say so myself.”
I shoo his hand away and pull a pair of Shuko from my jacket pocket. “I’ll show you ‘too scared’.” I jump onto the building after adjusting the Shuko straps around my wrists and begin to climb. It’s easy for a minute or two (2), but the top seems to be getting farther and farther away from me. After several minutes, I make the stupidest choice possible and glance back down at the blue clad turtle. He’s so far away now; only a blue and green blur from my perspective.
The cars below look like big balls of light. My vision soon becomes distorted as I get the notorious falling sensation.
“What’re you waiting for?!” Leo yells up at me. “Keep going!”
I slowly turn back towards the top of the skyscraper and try resuming my climb, but my arms and legs can’t stop shaking. I’ve never been this high up before. My fear isn’t exactly being this high, but falling from a height like this. It reminds me of my dreams were I fall into the black void and wake up before I fall to my death. I don’t want Leo to go through my shit, but I feel frozen by fear and the decrease in temperature.
“Okay, you win!” I shout at him. “Help me down!”
He groans loudly. “C’mon, you’re almost there!”
“No, Leo, I’m serious! I wanna get down!”
“Lala, you got this!”
“Leo, help me down now!”
The turtle’s shoulders bounce up and down. He’s laughing? He thinks this shit is funny?
“Leo, if you don’t help me down now, I’m gonna jump!” I threaten.
His shoulders stop moving and he stares at me for a couple of seconds. “You wouldn’t.” He calls my bluff.
“You promised you’d catch me, right?”
From what I can tell, he nods his head up and down.
With a few deep breaths, I close my eyes and push myself backwards into the open air. You better catch me you idiot, I think, if I die, you’ll never hear the end of it from my ghost.
A familiar warping sound below and land in muscular arms. I open my eyes to see Leo staring down at me with a subtle smirk across his lips. “I knew you’d fall for me eventually.”
My heart quickens in pace at his pick-up, but I punch him in the chest and force myself out of his hold. “Whatever. Let’s just get this over with.”
Leo chortles as he opens another portal into my apartment. Like the genius he is, he forms the portal on the ceiling, causing us to fall onto the carpeted floor. He laughs awkwardly with a “whoops” and gets up to turn on the light.
“Now… which one should I pick?” The turtle says slowly as he scratches his chin. His eyes soon land on the drawers inside my bookshelf.
Oh, no: part two (2).
That’s where all my stolen stuff is. He’s gonna ask where I got something in here and I’m not sure if I’ll tell him the truth.
He opens the drawer and digs around for a bit. When his hand comes back up, he has the bracelet from the street vendor I helped a month or so ago. Thank god.
“What’s this?” Leo asks.
“A bracelet.”
“No shit. Where’s it from?” He jingles the charms.
“That street vendor that got robbed. He gave it to me as thanks.”
With a hum, he puts the bracelet back and closes the drawer. Leo turns his attention towards my books and then to the pink journal he was boasting about earlier.
My palms become sweaty as me pulls it out of its place. “Wait, maybe not that one. Please.”
The three-fingered mutant laughs at my pleads. “C’mon, it can’t be that bad.”
“Leo, it’s literally so embarrassing. Please don’t open it.”
Ignoring me, he opens the journal and leafs through the pages. He soon enough sees what I’m so embarrassed about as he stifles another laugh.
“Aw, c’mon, these are cute. You used to like ponies?”
“Well, yeah but they’re old and I haven’t touched it in years so it doesn’t even matter.” I say quickly, crossing my arms against my chest. “Can you put it back now?”
“Glitter-Foot… Sprinkles… Twilight—”
“Okay, okay, that’s enough. Pick something else.” Sure, it’s cliché to be embarrassed by your “pony phase”, but to have Leo know about it is a whole different ball game. He’ll never let me live it down.
The turtle snickers a bit before returning the journal to its original spot. “Relaaax, I thought the drawings were adorable. But now I know you’re cringe so let’s call it even.”
“I’m not cringe anymore. You’re still cringe.” I point my finger at him with a smirk of my own on my face.
It makes me feel somewhat better that he didn’t make fun of me as much as I thought he would.
“You’re still cringe.” He says quietly, mocking my tone. “How much longer?”
I check my phone. “Fifteen (15) minutes.”
“Ohhohoho yeah.”
Leo ventures around my room for about a minute and a half before looking at my klepto-drawer again. He glances at me, then the drawer, then me again.
“Did that street vendor really give you that bracelet?”
I nod. “Yeah, I mean, look at it. It’s expensive as fuck compared to the bracelets he was selling.”
“Hm… okay, then how much stuff in that drawer did you steal? I saw that thing you stole last week in there.”
Fuck. He knows.
“Uhm… I guess, like… most of it.” I end the sentence in more of a question form than a statement.
Like I’d feared, his expression becomes more serious. “Why do you even steal? You have a whole apartment by yourself. You gotta be loaded.”
If only you knew.
“I dunno, it can be fun… sometimes, I guess.”
Leo raises an eyebrow at me. “What’s fun about it?”
I check my phone again, trying to distract myself from the situation. “You have ten (10) minutes.”
“Lala, you shouldn’t steal things from people. What if it was you being stolen from?”
I roll my eyes and fall back into my bed. “Listen, mom, I don’t need your input on my habits. I steal because I steal, no rhyme or reason why.”
Leo leans over me, his hands on either side of my head. “Look, I’m not trying to be your mom but come on. You probably have thousands of dollars worth of stuff in there. Don’t you think you should stop?”
“No, not really.” I avoid his gaze, but he follows my movement.
“Well you should. It makes you un-fun. Especially when you asked me why I didn’t steal that suit.”
His words make me feel itchy. “Okay, fine. I won’t steal anymore. Back off.”
The bed bounces back in place after he sits up. “You better, or else I might have to treat you like a mediocre super villain.”
“You would never.”
His frustrated look softens and morphs into a grin. “Maybe.”
Leo continues to rip apart my room, leaving me to think about what he had said. Don’t get me wrong, I know what I do sucks for other people. But I don’t really care, which also sucks. And it also sucks that I can’t help it. Like I said before, I don’t usually steal big or expensive things. It’s almost always shit I never use: travel sized toothpaste, toys, parts to things I don’t have, fake or low quality jewelry, etcetera.
When I walk into my store of choice, I get instant anxiety mixed with excitement—sometimes arousal. Then when I find the random item, I make brief eye contact with it before walking past it as if I didn’t even acknowledge it. I pretend to look at other things and return to the isle and snatch it. If I’m not approached by any employees, I pick up something else cheap and pay for that (or I just snatch it as well). If I am approached, I cope well when I’m under pressure from people I don’t know. I just lie my ass off—maybe accuse them of racism—until they let me go.
Leaving the store is the best feeling of my life. All my anxiety melts away like a thousand pounds was lifted off my shoulders. Now I could put it in my drawer and leave it there for all eternity, never to be used or thought of again.
“What’s this?” Leo wakes me from my thoughts. He’s holding the white snake ring. When my eyes don’t meet his, he sighs. “Okay, maybe I was being too pushy. I don’t think you’re a bad person for stealing things and I don’t think you’re un-fun. I just think you’d be more fun if you didn’t do it.”
“I know. I just… I can’t help it. You’re right, I don’t need any of the stuff in that drawer and I don’t steal with intent. It just happens and it’s the worst feeling sometimes because I don’t even feel bad about it.” I try to hide my shaky voice, but Leo picks up on it.
He pulls me into a hug and lifts me into the air. “Aw, don’t be sad! I shouldn’t have brought it up again. Hey,” he drops me onto the bed and grabs the pink journal again, flipping it to a random page, “look, a pony! He’s got a top hat and everything. You could say he’s financially stable.”
I giggle at the stupid pun. “You don’t have to do that—”
“Or this guy!” He interrupts me, pointing at a badly drawn edgy pony. “He’s a badass; my mane man. My ride-or-die.” Leo frantically flips through a couple more pages and stops on a pony in armor. “Woahhoho, look. At. Him. ‘To be or not to be, that is the equestrian’.” He says in a terrible British accent.
“Okay, okay!” I laugh at his barrage of puns. “That’s enough. I’m not upset.”
Leo smiles at my reaction and places his hands on his hips. “Good. It’s hard coming up with horse puns.”
“You should try different types of jokes. You’re becoming a one-trick pony.” I quip.
“Ooh, my own tricks being used against me. Clever.” The blue clad turtle lightly teases me.
My cheeks flush at his comment. I lift my phone to my face. “Time’s up.”
He grumbles. “Ughh. I didn’t even get to the good stuff.”
“Oh well, sucks to suck.”
The turtle yawns obnoxiously. “I guess you’re about to kick me out to go to sleep, so I’ll get going.” Leo unsheathes his sword and readies himself to open a portal.
“Uh, actually,” I start, my mouth moving on its own. Don’t you fucking dare, Lala, I think. He stops his movements and turns to my direction. “You don’t, uh, have to leave. You can… stay over… only if you want.”
Leo’s amused face practically melts my heart. “You serious?”
“Uh, yeah, I guess.” I shrug.
“Like a hund-o?”
“Yes, Leo.”
“You’re sure you’re sure?”
My eyebrows furrow. “Stop before I change my mind.”
“You don’t have to tell me twice.” He says ironically. “So, where do I sleep?”
I suddenly break out in a nervous sweat. Don’t. You. Dare., I think, but my thoughts have no control over my lips. “Uhm, in my bed is… fine.”
Idiot!
Now Leo gets nervous. “Uh—I mean, only if you’re okay with it.”
“No, I totally am! I just…” exhale through my nose. “I don’t want you to go yet. I like having you around.”
Leo’s face becomes distorted as he’s trying to return to his nonchalant and carefree attitude, but can’t help but be—or at least what I think—flattered. He eventually turns his lips up into a somehow cocky simper. “I would say I’m surprised, but I knew you couldn’t resist the ‘Leon charm’.”
With that, the turtle removes his sheathed sword and sets in against the wall next to my Yari. He then flicks off the light switch and finally lays down next to me. Butterflies crawl from my stomach and up to my throat and out my mouth, practically choking me. I clear my throat as I turn away from him. He takes the incentive to wrap his arms around my torso and pull me into his plastron.
I’m gonna explode. I’m simply gonna explode.
“Your heart’s racing,” Leo teases me, his breath hot against my neck.
“Your hands are cold.” I retort.
“Do you want me to move—”
“No.” I answer a little too quickly. “I mean, no, it’s fine.”
I try to take a few subtle deep breaths, but it’s in vain. It’s just occurring to me that Leo likes to annoy me and tease me. I thought it was just his personality, but he goes out of his way to be especially irritating until I get genuinely upset. Then he reveals he’s joking and does everything possible to stop me from being mad at him. But he also pushes my nerves as far as he can go, like it’s a game to him. I don’t think Leo enjoys the “making me upset” part, but he for sure has a thing for my exasperated glares, threatening “Leo”s, and playful punches to the chest.
But strangely, I like the teasing to a certain degree. His playful smirks and half assed—maybe sometimes ok—puns make my heart skip a beat every time. Leo is probably the most aggravating person I’ve talked to, but his charm overtakes that part of him, and he also never goes too far.
Suddenly, I’m brought back to reality when a loud snore sounds from behind me. Leo’s grip had loosened around me, sound asleep.
And he gets on me for falling asleep so soon.
There’s no way I’m getting any sleep tonight.

Posting my ao3 Madlyn fic here, bc I don't know the next time I'll have the writing motivation to start chapter 2. I originally posted chapter 1 on July 25th, 2023 (the motivation basically left me the instant it published 💔). Hope y'all enjoy :] ------------- Chapter 1
From Boyfriend to Wingman
Ashlyn: Hey, can we talk?
Big Red: Of course 😊
Ashlyn’s nerves were through the roof as she silently waited for Big Red to show up. She had texted him asking if he’d meet up at her place, and was now starting to get lost in thought about it. This was the night she planned on breaking up with him, and now all that was left was figuring out how to say it. She’s been mulling over it for weeks now ever since realizing her feelings for Val back at camp. Which in turn led to her figuring out that she is, in fact, Queer.
While she still cared deeply for Big Red, her heart was longing for something new. This recently discovered part of her has given her a new way to look at herself, and now she wanted to see what else there was to explore. While distance may make the heart grow fonder for some, for others it helps put feelings into perspective. All of this coupled with some unexplored feelings that she may have for her newly made friend, Maddox.
Interrupting Ashlyn’s thoughts were the sound of footsteps approaching, those footsteps ending in a welcoming hug from Big Red. She hugged him back tightly, now came the hard part that she can only hope ends well.
“Hey Ash, you wanted to talk?” Big Red spoke, looking into Ashlyn’s eyes expectantly. There was something comforting about the way he looked at her, like no matter what was said, he’d understand.
“Um yeah” She hesitates for a moment, directing him towards a couch where they could sit down. “So do you remember that night back at camp? The night of the Frozen show?” Ashlyn finishes. Hoping to jog Big Red’s memory, as well as to stall due to her nerves attempting to get the best of her.
“How could I forget? It was probably the best thing to happen this summer..” He starts, but trails off as he sees the look on her face. “Is this about that conversation we had?” Big Red silently looks at Ashlyn, thinking about why this would be brought up so long after the event. Though, whether he realized it or not, he had a feeling he knew where this was going. 
“Biggie, while I was at camp I realized some things about myself. Things that are more than just what my rising sign is… which is apparently a leo and not a capricorn like I’ve thought for basically my whole life-”
She takes a deep breath, and slowly exhales. “Uh, but that’s besides the point.” Laughing nervously at her own rambling, she continues on. Letting go of the last of her fear, before finishing her thought. 
“That conversation we had, I wasn’t being truthful. I care for you, so much. You’ve made me feel loved, and like I can do anything. You’ve been there for me whenever I needed someone, and you’ve always shown that all you want is for me to be happy.” A moment goes by, then another. And finally…
“But my heart seems to be pulling me in a new direction, and I think it would be best if we were just friends from now on.” As the sentence left her mouth, tension filled the air around them. The room was quiet, far more quiet than she’d like at this moment. As time felt like it stretched on for ages before Big Red finally spoke.
“You know, I kind of felt like that was where this was going.” Ashlyn starts to form the beginning of an apology after he says this, but is quickly interrupted by Big Red continuing. 
“And while it does hurt, you’re right that all I want is for you to be happy. And if that happiness lies elsewhere, then that’s okay. I never want to hold you back from that, so don’t apologize. There’s no need.”
The relief Ashlyn felt in that moment was liberating, a weight had been lifted off her shoulders and tears had begun to form at the corners of her eyes. She tightly hugged Big Red as they sat there silently, the understanding and care was evident from the warmth of the hug itself.
When they finally pulled apart, Big Red’s eyes lit up as if he had just had an epiphany of sorts. Suddenly he spoke.
“You don’t have to tell me, and I don’t mean to pry. But, did someone at camp catch your eye by chance?” The unexpected question caused Ashlyn’s eyes to widen in surprise, this reaction resulting in Big Red immediately starting to smile from ear to ear. 
“Someone totally did! Ash, that’s amazing.” he exclaims, grabbing Ashlyn’s hand as a gesture of support. She sighs, taking in his reaction to this newly found information. She couldn’t be more grateful that she wasn’t losing his friendship, and that he would still be that beacon of light in her life that he always was. 
“Okay well, I may or may not have made a new friend at camp who just so happens to have wormed their way into my heart just a bit.” She starts, wondering how best to describe Maddox to Big Red. Her feelings were still fairly new, and she didn’t know exactly how to work them out
just yet. But what she did know is that Maddox was someone important to her, someone who had helped her figure these new things out. That’s at least something to think about during this journey she seems to be going on.
After a moment more of thinking, she continues. “Her name is Maddox, and she was nothing but kind to me the entire time I was at camp. I still feel horrible for how I treated her throughout it all, but despite everything she still gave me a chance.” 
Ashlyn’s face begins to heat up, watching Big Red for any slight reaction he might have. She keeps talking.
“She’s funny and observant, and I don’t know. I guess I wish I had a bit more time with her. Maybe these feelings wouldn’t be so complicated then.” She finishes, looking away from him in an attempt to save face. She didn’t notice her heart rate had risen as she spoke, coupled with the nerves that had shown up once again.
“Well, it seems like we both figured something out about ourselves this summer.” He laughs. Hoping to calm her down a bit in the process. He was just happy that she seemed more content with herself, and that she was able to tell him this without worry.
While Ashlyn was beginning to collect  herself, Big Red began forming an idea. An idea that may just help Ashlyn in all the ways she needed in this moment, all that he needed was her approval. “Hey Ash, how do you feel about having a wingman?” Smiling wide at her curious gaze, he begins explaining his plan. -More (hopefully) coming soon- Feelings to be Explored - Chapter 1

Rating the signs (sex wise)
i haven’t had sex with all 12 signs, but i have had sex with a few of them so let’s take a look at the signs.
ARIES - havent had sex with one as of yet
TAURUS - 5/10, he was good at the moment. i was clouded by my hormones & ovulation that i didn’t realize he was a complete weirdo. im mad that he gave me BV, he was uncircumcised as well. (bling)
GEMINI 1 - 6/10, his dick was huge. i just hate car sex, i do wish that i got to fully experience him. (bowler)
GEMINI 2 - 6.9/10, i wish we did more positions. his dick was girthy which was amazing, it probably would’ve been amazing if we actually took the time to have sex instead of just trying to smoke. he was a cool ass person to be around tho. (story coming soon)
CANCER - 8/10, his dick was so pretty. he was an eater, and i loved him so much. although his dick was average he knew exactly how to work it. he was almost my first nut, but he always came before i could. he took the time to actually experiment and learn the things i like. he actually cared for me and wanted to always make sure i was good. (bonnet)
LEO - haven’t had sex with one as of yet.
VIRGO - give it a month maybe and i’ll have sex with one.
LIBRA - 1/10, small dick. he did make me extremely wet, i will not explain further. i will MAYBE write a story on him.
SCORPIO - 3/10, lost my virginity to him but nothing about the experience was truly memorable. the dick was subpar but that head? omg i almost melted out of my body that’s how good the head was. (stoner)
SAGITTARIUS - 9/10, he took his time with me, this man is up there with the biggest dicks ever. he took care of me, i couldn’t nut from his dick because it was too big for me to really just be comfortable, but he was amazing. i did nut from his head. i miss him at times, but i think that door is closed especially after the terms we left off. (swimmer)
CAPRICORN - havent fucked one yet, might not actually idk.
AQUARIUS 1- 6/10, he was a little musty, and he was quite rough with me. other than that he was a good lay. he wanted to fuck again but i just couldn’t bring myself to do it again, i feel pretty bad about it but thats in the past now.
AQUARIUS 2- 4/10, his dick was big but why did i even fuck him for real? he wasn’t bad at sex but it was just boring, like i really gained a body for us to just do missionary, backshots, and the occasional ride. he also acted pretty hollywood which was weird to me (bimbo)
PISCES - 9.6/10, save a horse ride a cowboy amiright???? lmaooo, but this man made me cum 4 times in one night. who knew a one night stand would be my best body, i want to go back and experience him again. he wasn’t even the biggest dick ever, it was just his aura that made me comfortable around him. (cowboy)
if this list puts anything into perspective, it’s that I attract water and air signs a lot. i mainly attract air signs, maybe it’s because of my venus. i would definitely recommend water signs for head.

Love Reading 🫡 - January 2024 - Pisces
Singles:
Overall energy: Queen of Wands
How you will meet: The Chariot rev
How they will treat you: Wheel of Fortune rev
Long-term Potential: 4 Cups
You don’t want this person. There’s probably a history here, and if it ended before, you feel it was for a good reason, you’re not really interested in them making a comeback. Or taking it further if it’s a one-go type of connection. It’s like they come to you in a way of “I’ve changed!” and it’s like, the last time was 10 Swords so…good for you, still not interested. The preshuffle shows you refraining from any impulsive, spontaneous or passionate connections, you don’t want them. This 10 Swords can also be how they feel, when you inevitably reject them. Queen of Wands gets what they want, people don’t tell them no 💯 and their message of “follow my lead” would indicate they’re used to that. You’re probably the only person that will, but you will, you don’t seem to want anything to do with this. Long term, you still don’t care, and if anything you get more clarity on that, not regretting moving away from this person.

Signs you may be dealing with:
Aries, Cancer, Leo & Sagittarius
Couples:
Overall energy: The Magician
Current: 4 Pentacles rev
Challenge: Death
How they feel about you: 10 Wands
How you feel about them: 4 Wands
Outcome: King of Cups rev
Don’t take this the wrong way but…I think you’re having a dunce moment this month. Someone is. Just clarifying The Magician & 4 Pentacles rev I heard “scam” and see what looks like buyer’s remorse. Something looked way better on paper, or in the commercial, something you’ve probably spent a pretty penny on it, and are now kicking yourself. Or your person is kicking you. I don’t get manipulation per se, I get over idealistic romanticism and positivity, aka you fooled yourself, and now you’re pissed about it. No judgement here, I dunce everyday of my life 🙃
The challenge being Death is more something being recognized, coming to light, probably this over idealistic way of seeing things. Toxic positivity? It is a thing, at least when you’re getting scammed it is. There’s a fine line between logic and negative thinking though, good luck striking that balance. Whatever is “ending” is positive and for the best, could just be a perspective on something. This person feels a lot of heavy pressure and probably irritation at the money being spent on whatever this “little fascination” is or was, like maybe you decide sewing is your passion, and spent $200 on yarn just to realize you can’t/shouldn’t use yarn in a sewing machine that you also bought…and didn’t keep receipts. I mean “burdened” is better than “pissed off”, but yeah they’re feeling it @ you.
I was going to go a different direction with your feelings, but I was told to get messages between them & you, and now see why 😆 Up to this point, you’ve felt secure, stable, the relationship was great. While you’re probably being lectured a bit (if that) on your actions here, it’s more this person doesn’t “deserve” it per say, but they’re just as freakin bad as you are, if not worse. They’re literally labeled “irresponsible” so, while you have made a financial oops, it seems like more of a lesson for you to learn, and a regular thing for them. Will they learn too? Maybe, hopefully, they show up as impulsive Knight of Wands energy so probably not. If anything, by mid-Feb I get them acting in a way that’s like…stonewalling? Punishing you via immature behavior and bs, for acting or doing the exact same thing and mirroring them? That’s a deeper problem 🙏 and could be something Spirit is trying to show you. It’s all good when they do it right? At the end of the day, are you being over idealistic over some yarn 🧶 or was the yarn simply a method of Spirit showing you it’s much more than yarn? I also get this person “coming around” from their sulk tantrum or whatever this King of Cups rev is supposed to show. Manipulative bs is what it is. You’ve got the runner card, they’ve got sus behavior, there’s a lot to learn between you, and it all starts with self accountability.

July 09. 2023
I'm writing this in the middle of a crisis, not the type of crisis in which I cry and I can't breathe and I feel like I'm drowning and the worst that could ever happen to me was being born with my brain.
No, the other ones, the ones in which it feels like I just woke up, I opened my eyes and saw my life for the first time in many years, and I realize: I am great
Will this feeling last? Maybe, for a while, for days? Hours? Maybe the feeling will go away even before I finish writing this, Idk.
But now that I can look at my life from an outside perspective, I realize that I'm in love with you, I knew that of course, I have always known it since the moment I felt it. And I Know I love in a beautiful way, I love with every inch of me, when I love, there's no doubt that I do.
I love with passion, I love with energy, with words, with actions, with touches, with laughs and talks, I love with every part of me and I love with a choice. I didn't chose to love you, it just happened, but everyday I made the choice of showing you, of letting you know, of making you feel it. And that is the difference between you and me.
I dont doubt you love me, even though I doubted for a while, but not anymore, I know you do, but I don't think you choose me. You can treat me nice touch me, kiss me, tell me nice things, spend time with me, listen to me, care for me, yes, but when times get tough, as any relationship will ever get, you don't choose me.
Everytime things have gotten rough, you stopped trying for me, and I know It doesn't necessarily comes to only me and you, that there are other 20 factors in your life that make you tired, that make you afraid, that make you give up. But when I turn around and see all my baggage, I always continue to choose you, to fight for you.
Yes, we are different people, I know that, that's why I kept this for my thoughts only, I broke up with you and decided to give up on you, cause fighting for someone who doesn't fight back gets tiresome.
And then you came back and you made me believe that you were choosing me, but you weren't, we shared one week of acting, pretending that everything was fine, that we could do whatever we wanted, that we could touch and kiss each other, without having repercussions.
I am tired of giving myself out, I'm tired of choosing someone and fighting for someone that has to sit down to think if they want to be with me.
I don't want to be an after thought, I don't want to be a " maybe", "let me see", " I have to think" or "tengo que ver cómo me siento estando allá"
I want to be a "yes", "hell yes", "of course", "I want to try", "you are worth trying, you are worth fighting for"
Cause I would choose you, I would choose you here, there or anywhere, I know that, but you can't.
You never actually choose me and I know that, and still, I remain here, and I didn't said anything, cause I wanted to live in the fantasy that I could have you for a little before you started hurting me again.
We are not platonic, I am not platonic to you, I dont act platonic with you, but we are, cause we are nothing (I mean in a romantic/compromise sense). I spend a week with you, giving you everything I would give a relationship without being one and even know I'm continuing to do so. And I don't want that.
Leo, I would fight for you, I would put every effort for you, I would travel to see you, I would visit as much as you wanted me to, I would invite you here, I would do video calls, calls, compromise. I would, even long distance, for you I would do that, cause I think you are worth it.
But you can't look at me and offer me the same, I know I can sit down and wait for the answer, of course I could, but I don't want to.
So, this is me asking that, I'm not asking for boyfriends again wow, no, but, I'm asking if you are going to try for me as I would for you, if there will be a compromise. This is me, asking, for the last time.
If the answer is no, then that's done, we will still talk and all that, but even though I can't close my emotions, I'll treat you as I need to treat you: as a friend, platonically, none of the special treatment that I've been given you, not cause I'm trying to be mean, but because I deserve to give all my love to someone willing to give it back.
If the answer is yes, then, we try, we compromise, we make an effort, we try, and if we fail then that's that, I've never looked down on failure, the only thing i ever wanted was to be fought for.
When I say: truly, no one does it like me, there's no one like me. Those small glimpses of praise I give myself, are so rare and fragile, but I mean them. I think I am worth fighting for, I think I am worth trying, I think I deserve to be fought for, I deserve being choosed. And I want you to do that, but I would never and I mean ever, beg you to do that, I would never fall so low, I'm not asking you to choose me and fight for me, I'm asking for an answer in which either one I'll respect and adapt and understand, but I will never grieve not being chosen, cause if you don't do it, then I know damn well someone else will.
I think we have something special going on, I could be insane, but I think you also feel it too, that, we make sense, that we bring the best of each other, that we trust each other, yes, of course we love each other, but we can love things we don't trust, and we do trust each other.
I think we are good for the other, that even we understand the other (not completely obviously), we can clash and crash, but that's what it is about, clashing and crashing and choosing each other either way.
If the answer is no, then the answer is no, then you will never hear me say this words again, I'll leave it at peace and we move on from it, we remain friends, we treat each other as so, and respect that limit.
I hope you understand that I can't live the way you have one way or another asked me to live: do things now and worry about them later. No, I wont do that anymore.
I deserve a: "hell yes" or the honesty and clarity of a direct answer that leads us to close the chapter of us (romantically speaking). With this I'm not saying the feelings will go away, but that boundaries will be made and we won't toy anymore with ground that is unstable, cause, one way or the others we always end up going back to the other, I refuse to come back to you again just to not receive the same I give to you.
I love you, and I know you operate differently, I respect that, I came back to a relationship in which I was told we would do long distance, then that changed and I respect it, I stayed in a relationship in which we would "figure it out when we got there" and then I stayed in a situation of a week in which we ignore the time coming for us. I've respected your way of living and acting and I made an effort in letting you do so, I ask the same in return, I ask for an answer of something none of us know.
If you say yes and we try, will we last? Idk, I have no clue, but that's the thing, I don't care, I'm not here cause I have a certainty of success, no, I am here, cause I think you are worth it, even if we fail. I want to know if you see me the same way.
If not, then, that's it, no more trying, no more asking, just a friendship, as I treat all my other friendships, with care and effort and limits.

Hi jenx, here's a good idea for you! Why do you love the rising signs? I know you will have fun with this 😊 Looking forward to your reply dear.
Stop I absolutely love this!
Thank you for the amazing idea anon and yes let's get into it!🤍
🕊The rising signs & why I love them
Tumblr media
Aries Rising: It's the passion in their hearts, its their zeal for their work. The way they're always the brightest, yet opt to remain observational instead of acting on their knowledge. The rosy tints on their cheek. When the sun shines on their faces, their eyes glitter. They were born with loyalty ingrained in their veins. Hilarious and laidback nature. I admire how they infuse love into even the most insignificant of details. The way they dress is laced with a meaning, the small gifts they choose for their loved ones are infused with affection. Everything they do is driven by true passion, not the warped kind that leads to people doing things for the wrong reasons. Just a courageous soul attempting to experience life to the maximum possible extent.
Taurus Rising: Their smile. The way their eyes curve like a gorgeous crescent moon is just breathtaking. Every time they give back to the community, their halo shines brighter than before. Socially affluent, with a constant flow of ideas for what to contribute. Adored by the masses and adored by me. I will be eternally grateful for having met such astounding souls. Ones that represent not only just beauty but also grace.  Sweethearts. Jokes that are really intimate and difficult to forget. Caring in all ways, and will never fail to make you feel heard and understood when you need it the most. 
Gemini Rising: Their ability to reason. Their sincerity. Their dolly beauty. Porcelain-like smoothness to the skin. How they are adorably different from everyone else I have ever met is beyond comprehension. Everything they come into contact with turns into a work of art. Eyes that are coated with virgin honey and a burning desire to know and understand more. Individual spirits who are fiercely devoted to the core of their being. They make my heart rejoice, and my romantic side comes to life as a result of our encounter. Inside jokes that feel so particular and never fail to make they chuckle, thanks to their sharp intellect. Smiles that light the nights and the days to come. Bless their precious heart.
Cancer Rising: Their unique perspective. Their presence adds cheers to the most dreary day. I love how they’re always very restless and selfless. The way their skin glows under the moon. Even when I’m not around them, I’m always thinking about them. The pink hue on their lips. The way they know the real meaning of love is divine. Will take you in and make you feel like you’re crossing the threshold of your home. Their beauty is all consuming and their energy is ravishing. Never stop being unapologetically themselves.
Leo Rising: Their thoughtfulness. It is necessary for them to never cease giving and giving. More committed than people realizes or will ever be able to understand. They take great pride in their ability to read people's vibes swiftly. They are more sensitive than they appear and more detached than you realize. They're constantly there, yet they also seem to be a long distance away. The capacity to bring a room to life by demonstrating how real and honest their heart is. Cast to be the sunshine in your life, they will travel to Mars and back to ensure that you are well taken care of. How their eyes spark when they push you to take that risk. Draw people in with their warmth and their humility.
Virgo Rising: Their devotion. How committed their heart is to what they believe in. When people have trust in anything, they will never allow that faith to be extinguished. How they show their people off when they are proud. They will make certain that you are aware of their affection. The kind of person who will stay up and hug you til your tears dry on their cheeks. They move with such determination that it appears as though they had the ability to take over the entire world. Voices that travel through matter and energy during times of need. Vitality that is contagious, and a personality that shines brightly like the glorious Full Moon.
Libra Rising: Their sensuality is undeniable. Their sense of humour is underestimated. It's remarkable how they're able to find humor in the most insignificant of situations. When they love someone, their love is like an orchard: fragrant, long-lasting, and breathtakingly gorgeous. It is their daring spirit that most people fail to see. What a fierce defender of heart love and truth they are. Either 100 or 0 all the time. When they're in, they're in for the long haul. They're more than simply a pretty face. They are so much more than that. I appreciate the way they message their close friends and family members every minute of the day, and the way they love like they have never loved before. They're incredibly intelligent and well-spoken in all they say and do. They understand me so well, it’s like they can read my mind. I love you guys and all that makes you you. 
Scorpio Rising: Their unwavering commitment to doing their very best in all they undertake. They're like a breath of fresh morning air, and I love them for it. No one understands themselves as well as they do, and they have impeccable manners. Actions speak louder than words, and theirs create a compelling tale about themselves. Irresistible when they blush. Their gorgeous, solemn character, as well as the fact that everything feels so effortless when you're around them. There's the ordinary, and then there's them. 
Sagittarius Rising: Extremely compassionate, and far more intelligent than most people believe. The most authentic parents within the circle of friends. Spending time with them can help you to feel more alive, like they finally learn how to live. They are courageous, they are motivating yet brilliant, and they are tremendously diligent. A fantastic sense of style and are really expressive and imaginative. Mindsets that are one of a kind. So  persistent, and I admire them for it. So vibrant and full of potential. It's lovely to watch them light up when they come upon something they appreciate.
Capricorn Rising: Intelligent and grace. All in one person. Their hearts carry the weight of this world and they do things with so much attention. Heavy is the head that bears the crown, they take responsibility like no others and they understand temptation more than anyone. They have so much control yet so much more to release. Hearts that yearn for goodness and always are glazed with not only sincerity, but also power underneath it all. Deserves all the appreciation in the world.
Aquarius Rising: Their presence is mesmerizing. They know how to challenge others and push them to be their most best selves. Minds that harbour maddening but also magic. Every time they grin, I feel as if a breath has been taken from my lungs. The way they command complete attention just by walking into a room. The way the corners of their eyes wrinkle when they giggle is very endearing. It's a pleasure to look at such beautiful things. Their goofy jokes are my favorite since they are so kind and inviting to others. Always glowing because it implies both inner and outer beauty. Energies that are like a shade tree in the dessert. Wherever they are is where I want to be.
Pisces Rising: A soul that exudes the type of beauty that transcends all boundaries and classifications. In a world of background noise, they are a cheerful melody.It all comes down to how they move. People are compelled to accept attention of them. So compassionate, as well as possessing spirits that are mature and knowledgeable. I admire the way their diamond earrings are outshined by their sparkling eyes . Being with them will make you feel as though you are taking a leisurely stroll along the country lanes of France. The taste of their presence is sweeter than the kiss of the morning star.
— Here are a few words I have on the Rising signs, all Rising are beautiful and dear to my heart in different ways. I hope you guys enjoyed this. Let me know if you want more content as such and I'll deliver:) All you have to do is ask boo.
love,
saint jenx🪐

Understand your mercury sign ☿️
Aries Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you are quick-minded and you have a million things you want to do in your head, but because of that you might start some and never really finish them. However, that doesn't matter to you as long as you can move on to the next thing. You can connect the fast thinking mind with the physical world, so you always need to act on your ideas and thoughts to feel productive.
The way you speak: even if you might not be able to express your thoughts as good as you wish, as you can easily get distracted and feel like your words are sometimes child-like when you put them out, you have a great ability of leading through your words. Whenever you are in a good mood and you speak, there's so much enthusiasm and motivation in you that others get that energy as well. You might prefer expressing yourself through action or movement.
The way you learn: You learn best when you combine information with fun and directly through action. If you had to read a manual before crafting something, you'd rather just do the work and figure it out on the way. However, just as fast as you understand any concept you're learning, you also might forget it to make room for new things.
Taurus Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you might be thinking a lot about ways to improve yourself in terms of your job, your income or your self worth, so you always find solutions that get you closer to your goals. You might sometimes get stuck on certain ideas and you tend to not give up unless you do it your way. You think about your loved ones often and how to keep yourself and them happy.
The way you speak: you have a strong endurance when it comes to communicating, so you are able to listen clearly to others and be there for them in a practical way. When there's a subject that you highly resonate it, you can get stuck on some ideas in your head. When that happens, you have strong opinions and you speak honestly, without really caring of what others think.
The way you learn: you learn really quickly when you encounter a subject that you are passionate about. However, when you have to learn something new out of obligation you either procrastinate a lot or you learn it like a robot, then forget it all. You might sometimes feel like you process information slower than others, as you like to take your time and feeling rushed or pushed makes you close off a lot.
Gemini Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you are full of ideas and information, so there's never really a break to your brain. Sometimes you can find yourself remembering things that you did not know you ever memorized and it seems like your head has layers to it. You might also find that your way of thinking is often split into two ideas, two plans and sometimes find it difficult to choose from them.
The way you speak: you speak with a natural flow, you can speak for hours about any possible subject, as you have an infinite source of information coming and going. You might sometimes find it difficult to express your emotions as effectively as you wish in the moment, but when it comes to expressing ideas or generating solutions you are always reactive. You might be good at small talk, even if you are not a social person.
The way you learn: you are able to learn facts and to memorize information quite easily, sometimes you can surprise others with remembering the small details. You also learn really well through associating some subject to something you knew before, this helps you make complex connections. Debates are something that helps you memorize things better as well, there's nothing like a good talk on your hobbies.
Cancer Mercury ☿️
The way you think: even if you realize it or not, you often think about the other before your own, about what they need and what you can say in order to make the person feel integrated. This is because your way of thinking combines the mind with emotions and it turns thoughts into something more tangible, it connects it with feelings. That's why you might sometimes be feeling something intuitively before you actually start thinking about it.
The way you speak: you speak from a space of empathy, but you do not share all the information. You might say how you feel more easily than others, but you do it only when you feel safe enough with the person you are talking to and this gives a bit of a mystery to your speech. When you do open up and speak your emotions, they might come attached to the way you feel in that moment - with enthusiasm if excited or with tears if sad.
The way you learn: you learn best when you feel safe, you first have to make sure that you had a good meal and good sleep and that everything is all right in your life in order to be able and detach to learn something new. Your mood affects your learning abilities, but you always manage to finalize the things that are significant to you.
Leo Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you might not be stuck in your head as much, because you usually act on things quite quick. This makes you quite decisive and sometimes you can come off as dominant. Your thinking is usually quite empathic and you always try to figure out what you can do to contribute even more to your growth.
The way you speak: you likely have leadership qualities when it comes to your speech. Even if you consider yourself an introvert or not - you have this power to get the attention on you when you express your opinions. That is because you have confidence in your words and you know how to articulate them. You might sometimes go overboard and say some things that you don't mean, as this fire energy gives you an impulse to speak your mind. Self expression is important to you, so you likely communicate more by focusing on your hobbies and taking action, rather than just aimless words.
The way you learn: you learn best by yourself or within a group of people, you likely have a person to go to for whatever it is that you need and you can work together in order to reach your goals. When learning, you usually focus on the bigger picture and do not like to get lost in the details.
Virgo Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you are a deep thinker, but your thoughts are always practical, as problem solving comes naturally to you. Most of the times you think in a very logical way and you pay attention to the details in your environment - maybe so much so that you are able to anticipate other people's steps. You have a rich inner world and no one really knows how many thoughts go through your head everyday.
The way you speak: you speak honestly and directly, you are great at giving advice and that is one of the ways that you show the other person you care. This can sometimes make you seem rather critical, but in reality you are trying to help. People come to you when looking to solve a problem.
The way you learn: you learn best by writing things down, by making lists, by decluttering the place and by making sure that everything is in place whenever you work on something. The environment you are in can influence your ability to learn a lot and you usually are scared of making mistakes. You know yourself very well, so I am sure that you have in mind a way that works for you personally in terms of learning lol.
Libra Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you might be thinking a lot and most of the times your thoughts are not being expressed as much as you wish, as you always want to make sure that the other person feels appreciated by you. You have a mind that's set on fairness - understanding others behind the surface is something that keeps you thinking. This is why, you might have conflicting thoughts at times, as you would rather not choose between two things than make a choice and have it not be the right one or have it upset someone and create an imbalance.
The way you speak: you have a way with words - you are a great storyteller. You feed yourself through communication and you are great at making sweet compliments. No one does that anymore, right? You feel as if there's not enough support in the world and you want to be the one that makes a difference.
The way you learn: you again learn best through conversation - there's something about saying things out loud into a story that helps you memorize them better. Also, reading is something you might be enjoying or something that helps you while learning. Any subject that you find truly beautiful will get your attention and your engagement.
Scorpio Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you are grounded in your thinking, you enjoy being present and going about your everyday life to make sure that things are under control. You tend to overthink the things that get that spark going in you, you think about it all the time and you let it consume you and that's how you know how important it is to you. There's also a lot of feeling attached to your thinking - you may find yourself being affected by bad things happening in the world and isolate yourself. You like being by yourself though, in your thoughts.
The way you speak: there's a slight sarcasm when you communicate, but each word you say always has a hidden meaning to it, even if you realize it or not. You feel things intensely, but you do not show your feelings through your words very often, as you believe that feelings are not suppose to be spoken, but just felt.
The way you learn: when it comes to a subject you are passionate about, you become obsessed with it. You need to know all about it and you are great at research. Even for the more taboo subjects you will find information on. Sometimes people around you have no idea about some subjects that you are really passionate about.
Sagittarius Mercury ☿️
The way you think: your thinking is quite philosophical, you might be thinking about your place in this world a lot or you might be having strong morals and opinions. You are a believer and whatever that is that you believe in, you are all in it. You like seeing things from a more detached perspective and you never take everything as seriously as everyone does. You like exploring with your mind and seeing where your brain can go, but you don't analyze your behaviors all that much, you just live.
The way you speak: you speak with fire in your soul, you like debates and even heated arguments about concepts of the mind, the world, but when it comes to serious debates about yourself or another - you might feel like backing down. You think it's a waste of time to be speaking on negative emotions and you always stand up when you feel like your freedom is being attacked. You usually have a positive speech.
The way you learn: you learn through reading, you learn through experiencing things, you learn though traveling, you learn through storytelling. Anything that seems cool at the present moment will be what you decide to spend your time learning about, but you don't get too deep into details.
Capricorn Mercury ☿️
The way you think: you know your potential really well, even if you don't show it. This is why, you always think about how to reach that potential faster and how to advance in your career. You are actually quite sensitive deep down, so you might sometimes find yourself getting busy in order to ignore some emotions, but you cannot ignore thinking about them forever, so you eventually let your guard down.
The way you speak: you speak in a very thought-out and controlled way. You are the type of person that says things only when you have enough knowledge on the subject and if you feel like you need to learn more on it, you inform yourself. You like talking clearly and effectively and there's not really gossip involved in your talking, as you like focusing on yourself and don't have time for drama.
The way you learn: you learn best by making systems in your head. Firstly, you identify the time of day/modality that works best for you while learning and then you build up your own way. You are a constant learner of the things that help you get closer to your goals and that have to do with your career path. You learn well through courses, apps or any other tool you find interesting.
Aquarius Mercury ☿️
The way you think: your thinking is quite chaotic, as you might be thinking of something today and then change your mind tomorrow. You sometimes find your mind to be working differently than everyone else's, as you process information in your own unique way. Also, you tend to overthink your emotions a lot instead of just feeling them right at the moment.
The way you speak: you speak from a place of truth most of the times and if that means saying something that might be totally against the belief system of the group you are in, that's also okay, You love having a community or a group to chat to and exchange ideas, thoughts about the future and ways that you can improve yourself everyday.
The way you learn: you learn best through creativity, you probably have your own way of learning already or you will one day invent one. You either work better in a group environment or by yourself, there's no in between and sometimes when you know that the thing you learn about has a purpose and can help yourself or others in the future you give more attention to it.
Pisces Mercury ☿️
The way you think: sometimes you feel like you think so much that you create your own bubble and get disconnected with the world. For you, your mind is a place to go to when you want to escape and it's so imaginative and full of color that it sometimes feels like it's more fun than the actual world...which is true.
The way you speak: you speak poetically on a good day and you ramble on a bad day. You might have obstacles when speaking, just because you can never seem to put into words the intense emotions you feel through your brain. So, sometimes you might be wanting to say something and then when you do say it, it comes out as something else. However, there's this bubbly, sweet and supportive way of speaking to you, as you are good at being there for others through speech.
The way you learn: you learn best when you connect the words with your imagination, so let's say that you want to learn about mythology - you view yourself as being one of the characters or you imagine how their world looks like, feels like and sounds like. It's a whole painted picture when you put your mind to it.
