Literally just a blog about my silly obsessions and my even sillier writing. Cartoons and anime are the definite mains, though, because live action is boring.
I go by either Lime or Tyles, whichever. Aro-ace, any pronouns; I have no preference.

Additional Tags: casey and april are only mentioned very briefly, the movie wrecked me, but not enough so i'm making it more whumpy i'm sorry in advance, Whump, Angst, Fluff and Angst, eventually, we'll get there don't worry, Hurt/Comfort, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Blood and Injury, not a lot of it though
Summary:
Healing from nearly being killed by the Krang has its ups and downs, but Leo's got the best brothers ever, so he'll learn to make the best of it.
Or: the movie didn't have nearly enough hurt/comfort for my taste so I'm doing it myself.
I don't think I can get over this little moment with Donnie when they're trying to save Leo from the prison dimension.
Our boy is PISSED. We've seen him upset and frustrated a few times throughout the show but this? This is pure rage.
Leo is the one Donnie has butted heads with the most throughout the show and movie. They argue and they tease each other, but at the end of the day, they love each other. I think we see the culmination of that right here, where Donnie is furious at the thought of losing Leo again and is determined to get him back.
He doesn't even say anything here, which I think makes this more impactful since this is just another moment of raw emotion from Mr. "Emotionally Unavailable". It's such a small moment but it's an important one, especially for Donnie's character.
Me constantly refreshing AO3 in hopes that a completed, 30-chapter fic with the right amount of brother angst, Leo whump, PTSD, canon divergence, and hurt/comfort falls into my lap even though the movie only came out 2 days ago:
AM I CRYING?!?! YES I AM, I AM CRYING SO MUCH RN THIS IS AMAZING
RHIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL I CANT EVEN THINK STRAIGHT EJSNSMAKAMSB AHHHH
OML HONESTLY THIS HAS MADE MY ENTIRE DAY
Hey. Hey guys? I need you to answer me honestly, okay? Okay.
Why. The heck. Have I not seen RotTMNT Baby Blues fanart yet?
…
Well? I’m waiting.
In all seriousness though, I’m not sure if the person who wrote this has a tumblr, so here’s the fic for those who are interested in the premise of Leo suddenly turning into a five-year-old.

Also, side note, the song “The Real Me” by Andrew Stein totally fits Leo in this fic. Actually, come to think of it, it’s a good song for Leo in most fics.
here’s a small reminder for ace awareness week: having an ace headcanon for a character does NOT automatically make them unavailable for shipping, and using ace hcs in this way–for the sole purpose of blocking a character from being shipped–not only demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of what it means to be ace, it also perpetuates inaccurate and unfortunate stereotypes that ace people cannot be loved
it’s absolutely possible to see a character as ace AND ship them right left and center
TLDR: ace hcs =/= no shipping
