Any aspec headcanons for Mona and Raph? We need more aspec rep.
yesssss qpr ramona
Hmm I think. I think they're besties for a long time before it occurs to them that outside observers are interpreting their relationship as romantic. I really like your Battle Nexus headcanon about how 03 Raph meets Mona Lisa.
Oh! They bond fighting. Everything from formal spars to poke wars. Mona Lisa would start a poke war and Raph would be like 'what are we twelve' however. He cannot lose. It lasts for years. Various bets are made, and each time someone wins they end up finding out that it actually wasn't over (Raph and Mona keep making up rules in order to continue) and have to give the money back. At some point it stops being about winning and becomes a way for them to mess with everyone else.
I think in my head I am combining the Goofy Gal Improv Queen Mona Lisa 1987 with Hardcore Loyal Honorable Warrior Mona Lisa 2012. And it's a very fun mix. She will take you down with kicks and pun(che)s, the banter is part of her personal honor code, it's her way of demonstrating respect for her opponents. Which is an interesting contrast with Raph who saves his roasts for the guys he doesn't respect XD
She is also very deliberate and respectful about learning other people's cultures and boundaries, I imagine this version of her is something of an inter-dimensional traveler. She's very thoughtful about who she teases and when and for what, something Raph immediately notices and deeply respects.
Raph cooks, Mona pays when they go out.
He knits her a little hat and she is delighted, she's never accessorized much before on the planet she's from and the concept of these little cloth crafts that you wear is just fascinating to her.
Oh and they sort of discover together the words that describe their relationship. I mean like comparing experiences is part of what helps them both realize they're aspec. I see Raph as aromantic asexual, Mona as demiromantic graysexual, but at the same time I feel like they both have complex fluctuating experiences and particularly Raph doesn't find labels particularly helpful, for him personally
Having a crush is hard, but having a crush on TWO girls is even harder (especially when you’re unaware that those two girls are the exact same person, so it leads you to be conflicted about your feelings)
Raph doodle page i did today BC MY FRIENDS ABANDONED ME/j and i really like how the eye on the left and the middle expression look :333 used screenshots i saved on pinterest as reference 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻💕💕💕
Raph: Love is for suckers. Romance is so stupid. Only a complete idiot could ever possibly fall in love. You'll never catch me making a fool of myself with that silly sappy crap.
Mona Lisa, walking by: Hi, Raphael!
Raph: …
Raph, picking a bouquet of flowers: I will begin with a heartfelt sonnet and a passionate love ballad-
My previous version of MM!Mona was Casey’s little sister who got mutant into a lizard. I scrapped that idea entirely!
My NEW MM!Mona is a a Salamandrian (specifically she’s a pink axolotl) named Y’Gthygba (like in 2012). Y’Gthygba is a young rookie solider apart of the Salamandrian army who was sent to Earth for an undercover mission to learn and get info on the illegal mutant experiments going on on the planet, this being her first mission on her own before she can be promoted into the force. Using her tech she is able to disguise herself as an average human girl and attend April and the Turtles high school under the name “Mona Lisa” because she has a fascination for Earth’s art culture.
During the day she’s Mona Lisa, the new girl who everyone finds strange but endearing, very smart and athletic. At night she is Y’Gythgba, scouting the city for her mission, and that is where she is confronted by her rival, Raphael who always gets in the way of her missions.
Raph HATES Y’Gythgba, picking fights with her every night and they battle all the time. Raph LOVES Mona Lisa, but he doesn’t understand why she hates his guts and won’t give him the time of day. What has he ever done to her?! (Unaware that Y’Gythgba and Mona Lisa are the same girl). But slowly he starts to fall for Y’gythgba which makes Raph conflicted for 2 reasons:
1) “She’s the enemy and I can’t be in love with the enemy!”
2) “My heart belongs to Mona!! What would she think of me if I flirted with another girl?!”
Also April is hella sus of the new girl and keeps having crazy theories that she’s actually an alien but Leo assures her that Mona is normal and she’s overthinking things. You can’t imagine her excitement when they all learned the truth lol
⭐️Full body on my last post about TOTMNT Mona Lisa⭐️
God, tumblr quality SUCKS. pls tap for better quality- Mona Lisa!! Her 1st fit is what she wears on the Cruise she went to before she got mutated and what Raph, and the rest of the gang, sees her in. Kinda her introduction outfit. Then, the second fit is the one she always wears. I was thinking that if she ever gets into Eastman high, this what she would wear. I’ll probably draw her with more outfits later. I tried to make my fan version look like the show based off the teaser.
Courting a Salamandrian, or CAS for short, revolves around Raphael wanting to propose to Mona Lisa. They have been dating for many years and he believes it's time to take their relationship to the next step. However though, unfortunately for him, many obstacles come towards their way. Because a guy who's name literally starts with bish can't seem to handle happy couples and needs to be a controllive freak. Luckily everything works out in the end and Raphael and Mona lisa can finally have their wedding.
The fanfic was created by @fabuloustrash05
As of now, the fanfic is finally coming to it's end. With the epilogue yet to be released as of the time I'm writing this. This fanfic brought me immense amount of joy and it's probably one of the only real TMNT fanfics I enjoyed and stuck around to read. When I first discovered it, I didn't think much of it but then picked up on it. I red it from the beginning and ever since then I have waited patiently for every chapter to release. I can see that genuine passion was put into this work and this whole fanfic just felt like a love letter to the Ramona ship.
Overall in general just, I'm gonna be sad and upset after the fanfic is finished. Although I'm definetelly gonna come back and reread it whenever I have the time and or energy. I never thought to feel so many things over just one fanfic.
To Maria, a.k.a the creator, thank you for this. I can tell you are very passionate when it comes to how you write your fanfics, you clearly take it seriously, and I respect you for it. Even outside of being a writer, you are genuinely a wonderful person and I love talking to you and seeing your posts on my dashboard. Even when the fanfic finishes, I'm gonna stick around to read your other future fanfics. I gotta catch up with turtles in the roaring 20s ngl...
So uhm.. yeah-!
Amazing fanfic, I love it, even if you aren't a massive ramona shipper you can still enjoy the fanfic.

Anyways that's all for now. Until next time my dear bunnies and foxies. YEET-
