Tease Tidbit Tuesday!!
Tagged by @disasterbuckdiaz thank you!! 💜🩵
So, me and @tizniz were discussing wips, and I mentioned I found one I kinda abandoned a while back. I love it, truly, but the inspiration fizzled out... Until now. For now. I started it in July, so a lot of the plot points in it aren't likely anymore 🙄 but I still want to finish it. Long story short, Eddie and Buck fight over the whole "she sees me" shit, Buck has some realizations, but before he can tell Eddie anything... Eddie gets hurt. Bad. So, have some angst from after the fight:
He knew words didn't come easy for Eddie. Growing up in a household where emotion was a sign of weakness, you learn to build walls so thick words would never get through. But Eddie tried. And Buck just twisted them around. Shoved them back at Eddie just to feel something.
Maybe it was his subconscious. Maybe deep down, he'd known all along he loved Eddie. He just needed Eddie to say it. It took him too long to realize he already had. In so many ways. Words weren't even necessary.
His vision blurred and he blinked away the tears. He didn't know how he had any left to cry.
"Kid," Bobby said in a soft voice. Buck looked up at him. "Let's get you cleaned up."
Buck looked at his trembling hands. He nodded and followed Bobby into the bathroom. It was too much like the last time. He still remembered Bobby showing up with a shirt for Buck to change into. Still remembered crying to Bobby as the man scrubbed the very life of Eddie from Buck's skin as a sickening thump echoed in his ears.
With any luck at all, it could be finished by premier day... But probably not 😁
Absolutely no pressure tagging: @13shadesofanni @lover-of-mine @monsterrae1 @actuallyitsellie @fortheloveofbuddie @steadfastsaturnsrings @ronordmann @thekristen999 @exhuastedpigeon @spagheddiediaz @loveyouanyway @daniwib @tizniz and anyone else who wants to share!! 🥰😊

I’m not trying to be mean but why did you change their last name? I know the fandom researched it and it’s known as a “fake name” but it’s a real Japanese name, just rare. No matter the era it’ll still exist, just in rare instances.
I really hope this doesn't come across as mean or super conceited or anything cause I am not an expert, but I have done a ton of research for this au and I want to make it as accurate as possible! I'm not upset or anything either I just want to be extremely clear about.
Okay I wanted to answer this with as much research as possible, because although you are technically right ( there are 100 households in Japan with the surname Hamato as of 1997)
There are other things to consider for this au, such as it being set in the 30s/40s as well as how old Yoshi's family is. Since his family goes back several generations, it'd make sense for him to have an older, more common name. Hamamoto still isn't extremely common, but it's significantly more common than Hamato.
The other thing is that a few points kept popping up when doing research and they are
1- these two surnames mean almost the exact same thing
2- When TMNT was aired in Japan for the first time, they specifically changed the Japanese names to more realistic ones.
3- The creators of TMNT have said that they just made the names up.
I will say also that in that 1997 Japanese National Census, they have a note that explains for the reader to be cautious of nicknames/pen names/stage names because people can and will put those names rather than their birth names/actually surnames, so there's no way to know for sure about those 100 households ( maybe more since its been several years but still)
So basically I changed it because I wanted it to more accurate to the language and the era in which the au takes place. I'm not saying this is all 100% certain as far as my research goes, I've done my best and this was the conclusion I came up with.
And again I'm not Japanese myself, so all my information comes from research and what I have learned of the language.
Also sorry if this comes off as mean or conceited or anything I just made that choice for a reason and ahsdhdhfhrhr I don't want to come off as mean

I want Remus and Roman to walk around in the middle of the night, having freshly rained and they're just kicking, jumping, flopping in puddles, maybe even rustling in the puddles, stealing kisses while play fighting.
