The family that fights together, sticks together!

Hot damn, it took two days! But it's finally here! I wish i had more time to do some thing more, but this is all I can muster rn! (And yes, it's a day late! But, is it ever truly too late to share the love for 2003 TMNT? No, the answer is no!)

Bonus:

Full bodies of each one, cause I genuinely loved each pose1 And i wanted to have them all by themselves too!

Here's the long promised splinter doodles!

So in my au, Splinter is a normal sized rat with human level intelligence and brain. I gave him a little knitted red hat to wear instead of a robe, because any sort of robe would be too big on him.

He uses a large splinter as a walking stick. The app I used to take the pictures kind of white-washed him, and up-ed the saturation on his sweater-hat? Robe thingy, the garment is normally a more red-brown color.

Splinter interacting with his son:

As you can see, splinter is small, but honestly he's a rather large rat if I'm being honest.

Splinter is small, as such, his son's will often carry him around by the back of the hat-worn-as-a-sweater/robe.

more shitty doodles for this au!

That's all, have a lovely day!

*If Splinter had road rage*

Splinter: あなたは怒っていますか！？死の願望か何かですか!?

(translation: Are you mad!? Got a death wish or something!?)

Thinking: “Incredible Shrinking Serling”

Thinking about 2003 Splinter letting his kids wander the sewers alone as tots who barely know more than flip&flail.

Thinking about Splinter’s respectable parenting as he reaches for the root of the problem and takes away what causes it to blossom.

Thinking about Leo brutally shoving Donnie into the wall with no remorse and how often these kids would have concussions if not for their shells.

Thinking about the tots not even flinching upon exiting the sewers and how nothing was “oooh, ahhh” worthy because dad’s probably taken them to the surface before this.

Thinking about Leo being worried about what Splinter would think and Raph promptly breaking into a store without hesitation.

Thinking about Leo using the term “shell” which is supposed to be their form of cursing at freakin’ five years old (Or however old these teeny tots are) and none of his brothers batting an eye.

Thinking about Splinter’s turts using the term “Sensei”, “Master Splinter”, and “Father” interchangeably.

Thinking about the fact Splinter has befriended the possible owner of a toy store chain and now the boys have unlimited toys

I love the way they’re seated in Reflections.

Leo sat down first and Mikey plopped down riiiight next to him. As close as he can sit and not draw attention to it. April saw them sitting close and gave them a little bit of space but still stuck by Mikey. Master Splinter settles himself next to Miss O’Neil, knowing his sons and not wanting to be involved in the roughhousing tonight (or: wanting someone to gossip with during the roughhousing). Casey sits across from Master Splinter, just continuing the circle and blending with the fam. Raph sees this nice little half circle and says, HA. I get all this space to myself. >:D Then Don finally gets done with whatever he was fiddling with and immediately goes, Raphie! :) You saved me a seat 💜 Alternatively Donny noticed and claimed the empty space first and Raph went, Why did you guys leave Don way out there? Don’t be rude to Don I’ll eat your face. Imma go sit with him

#tmnt #tmnt 2003 #2003 donnie #2003 raph #2003 leo #2003 mikey #2003 casey #2003 april #2003 splinter #okay so mostly what I loved was Donnie and Raph off by themselves like that #what do you think they’re gossiping about

[mousermayhem]

Help I had the funniest idea. Imagine Raph making a crochet temperature blanket type project for Splinter as a gift but instead of the temperature each row color is based off of how many times Splinter lectured them that day and the type of stitch in the row is determined by who got lectured most. He chose a really basic stitch with white yarn for days nobody got lectured. There are exactly two rows of that, very far apart.

Fuck it In making Splinters have rat issues

Rise!Splinter is blind. Legally, awfully, rat-vision blind. He is permanently squinting because he can at BEST see swashes of color. His clear vision range is about a foot. This is why the color names, he couldn't tell them apart at ALL from a distance until he had something bright and eye catching attached. His ears, whiskers, and tail make up for a lot of issues vision that bad causes, but he still has to sit like a foot in front of the TV with giant fuckoff glasses that don't really do much. He can't use the glasses unless he's sitting still because they're so magnified he Will trip or throw up. There's no prescription strong enough for rat eyes

2012!Splinter has issues with his teeth and lungs. He had a lot of trouble in the early years not knowing how to care for his teeth properly and trying to ignore the rat instincts to brux/chew. His teeth got nasty overgrown and painful for a bit and trimming them back is such an unholy awful sensory HELL that he decides to just be a rat and avoid the trimming. He chews on things all the time and allows himself to brux (angry rat chewing, where they grind their teeth, it means they're either Very happy or Very upset) because anything is better than having to take dog nail clippers to your TEETH. Dignity be damned, he will find chunks of applewood or pear wood or ANY possible substitute to chew on before having to trim his teeth. He also has had several health scares where his lungs got very sick. Domestic rats' lungs are their kryptonite, and he was not expecting the close quarters with him and four infants in a cramped nest to cause him to basically get URIs every other month. (I refuse to believe he was a wild rat. Those pretty markings are PEAK domesticated rat marks) Mans had to come up with an herbal remedy to breathe in or he'd just be constantly Suffering wheezey coughing hell. His vision is Also probably a bit worse

2003!Splinter has the least issues just because he was a rat First, so he's used to rat things. But he likely has a lot of issues with his coat and his joints. Can't groom properly anymore, because he's still very flexible but not nearly as much as he used to be, and some rats can go into shock if you surprise them with too much water. (I say most, as my patchwork rat and double rex would find the nearest stream of water and quite literally take a shower with it) He hates water and how heavy it makes his fur, but having kids means frequent bathing.... his poor fur likely has had issues with mold because he struggles to dry it all the way through. He has a lot of joint issues as he's kept a lot of the shape of rat limbs but the posture of humans and that's Not Great, plus he was old to begin with and his old man joints got Permanently Old Man-d. Also definitely got BETTER vision with his mutation, which he appreciates, but he was hardly a Normal Rat beforehand bcz I refuse to accept "showmakers knew nothing about rats" as an excuse for their weirdness in 2k3
