#I gotta draw August with her aunt and uncles more 😭 there’s s lot of love in this family

[star-sparkler]

I’m so happy to see you here on tumblr!!! Aggie is just darling 💕 her and donnie are beyond precious (father daughter goals)💕 I have to wear dentures now because they have rotted my teeth out. I have remembered a comic you did about when she was a baby, she was fussy from being sick. Raph took her so Donnie could get some sleep and and she was soothed be his magic uncle touch. It was one of my favorites and I’m curious about her bond with each of her uncles (and do you still have that comic 👉👈) Thank you for August and telling us about her ❤️

Thank youuuuu ;w; 💜

Yup I do still have that comic. Donnie and Raph look younger than they should but boop:

And August’s relationships with her uncles go something liiiiike:

❤️ August is probably closest with Raph. He’s her Sensei and the one who best understands from experience what it’s like to also have BIG FEELINGS that can be overwhelming and intense. If she’s struggling with something, he knows the best way to get it out of her is to spar until the energy’s directed out and the words have space to happen. Of all her uncles, August feels safest and most herself with Raph.

💙 Leo is August’s idol. She holds a great deal of respect for him and deeply admires his leadership and abilities (and sense of humor) and looks up to him / aims to emulate him in her own ninja-ness and future leadership. Her eyes are a little starry and rose colored with Leo despite his playful teasing and embarrassing shenanigans. They’ll occasionally find themselves butting heads but the love it always there. If there’s an uncle who August would trail after like a puppy, it’s Leo.

🧡 Uncle Mikey gives fantastic hugs and is always full of upbeat energy. August just doesn’t respond well to his Doctor Feelings attempts, and his mystic mojo is so impressive it can be a little frustrating for August who struggles so much with her own ninpo, but no one makes better turtle shaped pizza taiyaki or knows how to coax a smile and laugh from her better than Uncle Mikey. He’s great for helping her unwind and just be a little kid (and I think he feels the same in return).

💚 Bonus Aunt April, who functions as the cool levelheaded voice of reason for the family when shenanigans are high. April is a breath of fresh air and a chill confidante, as well as trusted female role model. She’s spur of the moment fun plans and the one to put Donnie in line when he’s being needlessly overprotective. Being with April feels like being a coconspirator in all the best ways.
