*Props elbows on table* Do continue the Apollo's children are Greek AND Roman meta, please!

Okay, so this took a while because the blog got shadowbanned and rl got a bit mad and just. Stuff in general. But I am still very much on this hill and yelling out about this (as two of my friends can attest to because they got trapped in a vc with me nattering on and on about this last night, oops), so let's get back to talking about this in depth.

This is the original post I made on the subject; it's very short and overview-y but several people asked for an expansion and as it's been a while I'm gonna ping the people in question: @rosesandlove44 @adequate-problematic @linds997

I'm actually upgrading this from a headcanon to a theory because the more I poke around and chat with others about it, the more it seems to fit with the narrative. So: Apollo's children are both Greek and Roman.

Now, before we can properly get into the children, we need to look at Apollo himself. If Apollo, like the rest of the gods, flits between Greek and Roman, then his kids would do the same and we'd have a split between them just like the rest - but he doesn't, and we don't.

Apollo never changes between the two. Not only that, but he's never shown to have any problems reconciling the two at all.

Starting chronologically, in Blood of Olympus, we meet the twins for the first time since the schism starts. Interestingly, however, it's Artemis who places more emphasis on the schism when they talk about it - Artemis, of course, becomes Diana for the Romans, and we know that the schism does affect her.

‘Delos is our birthplace,’ said the goddess. ‘Here, we are unaffected by the Greek–Roman schism. Believe me, Leo Valdez, if I could, I would be with my Hunters, facing our old enemy Orion. Unfortunately, if I stepped off this island, I would become incapacitated with pain. All I can do is watch helplessly while Orion slaughters my followers. Many gave their lives to protect your friends and that accursed Athena statue.’

If I, she says. While the implication is there with her use of "we" to describe them being safe from the schism on Delos, when it comes down to details she only talks about herself - specifically, that she would be incapacitated with pain. Apollo, when the same topic comes up, is nowhere near as specific:

‘To shoot my bow, I would have to step off Delos,’ Apollo cried. ‘Then I would be incapacitated, or Zeus would strike me down. Father never liked me. He hasn’t trusted me for millennia!’

Yes, he says he would be incapacitated, but his focus is immediately on Zeus and the punishment waiting for him. Admittedly, this and when he talks about Delphi do make it sound rather like there's something to do with the schism that's affecting him, but when we look at the scene more closely, there remains this curious lack of specifics or focus on that. Rather, what he says could very easily be misleading (and considering how much of an act he's putting on during this scene, what with the death threats to Leo that there's no feasible way he could ever have meant for so many reasons, what's a little more of an act?).

Apollo’s bow turned back into a ukulele. He plucked a dramatic chord. ‘When the schism began between Greek and Roman, while I struggled with confusion, Gaia took advantage! She raised my old enemy Python, the great serpent, to repossess the Delphic Oracle. That horrible creature is now coiled in the ancient caverns, blocking the magic of prophecy. I am stuck here, so I can’t even fight him.’

He says he struggled with confusion, but it never specifies what that confusion was by. In fact, as the other gods, as Artemis helpfully points out earlier in this same scene, are pained by the schism, Apollo seems rather odd to just be confused - actually, confusion would track more with him trying to work out why this is happening all of a sudden, especially as his own twin is affected, rather than it impacting him, personally.

Of course, there could be some inconsistency in the worldbuilding here. Rick has admitted several times to fudging things, and these two passages are the only ones that potentially contradict the theory, but I'm not entirely convinced on that because of the rest of the scene.

As we're facing Artemis, not Diana, and the twins are on Delos, the Greek island, it's heavily implied that we ought to be seeing Greek Apollo here. But if it's Greek Apollo, then why does he talk so familiarly with Frank, and about Octavian? We see from Mars and Bacchus with Percy that the Roman gods have no overlap with the Greeks in terms of knowledge and awareness of what their counterparts are up to, but Apollo is perfectly aware and comfortable talking about the Roman camp while in the Greek territory and setting.

‘You wrong me!’ Apollo wailed. ‘I was misled by Gaia and that horrible Roman child!’ Frank cleared his throat. ‘Uh, Lord Apollo, you mean Octavian?’ ‘Do not speak his name!’ Apollo strummed a minor chord. ‘Oh, Frank Zhang, if only you were my child. I heard your prayers, you know, all those weeks you wanted to be claimed. But alas! Mars gets all the good ones. I get … that creature as my descendant. He filled my head with compliments. He told me of the great temples he would build in my honour.’ Artemis snorted. ‘You are easily flattered, brother.’ ‘Because I have so many amazing qualities to praise! Octavian said he wanted to make the Romans strong again. I said fine! I gave him my blessing.’

Here, he refers to Frank's father being Mars (not Ares) with no issues at all. He also refers to his dealings with Octavian in the first person - there's no suggestion that he separates himself into Greek and Roman; he could have said "the Roman me" instead of "I", but even that requires him to be aware of what his counterpart was up to, which, again, is something that tends not to happen from what we're shown in the books. As it is, the implication is blatant that it is this Apollo who was dealing directly with the Romans... even though he's Greek.

That doesn't quite track with everything else, so even in BOO we can see signs that Apollo isn't affected the same as the others.

Then, of course, we have Trials of Apollo. Again, we're explicitly with the Greek Apollo, here; he usually refers to Artemis over Diana, he goes to Camp Half-Blood, where Chiron, the demigods, and later Dionysus all treat him with the familiarity that comes from being their side of things.

And yet, Apollo continues to have no problems at all with the Greek-Roman thing. We get little snippets like this, which show Apollo being casually familiar with Mars without any mental pause at all:

Below us stretched a landscape only slightly more hospitable than Mars. (I mean the planet, not the god, though I suppose neither is much of a host.)

That's definitely some good old brotherly/Olympian shade being thrown right there, without any pause at all.

“That’s a very Mars thing to say,” I noted. “Despite my many disagreements with Mars, I mean that as a compliment.”

Many disagreements - Apollo's used to talking with Mars as well as Ares, clearly.

And I just wanna backtrack a little bit to Frank and Apollo again, because as I was grabbing this passage as some more evidence, I noticed something else:

I almost didn’t recognize Frank Zhang. The first time I’d seen him, back when I was a god and he was a legion newbie, Frank had been a baby-faced, heavyset boy with dark flattop hair and an adorable fixation on archery. He’d had this idea that I might be his father. He prayed to me all the time. Honestly, he was so cute I would’ve been happy to adopt him, but alas, he was one of Mars’s. The second time I saw Frank, during his voyage on the Argo II, he’d had a growth spurt or a magical testosterone injection or something. He’d grown taller, stronger, more imposing—though still in an adorable, cuddly, grizzly-bear sort of way.

The first time, Apollo says, and then goes on to describe something that is never shown in HOO: Apollo seeing Frank pre-Son of Neptune, as a legion newbie and before he became part of the Seven. This may well have been one of the times when Apollo visited Octavian (although Frank clearly never knew about this, because their meeting on Delos is treated very much like their first meeting, and he wouldn't have held on hope of being Apollo's son right up until his claiming in SON if he'd met Apollo before that, because I can't see Apollo letting him continue to hope after meeting in person), but it's more evidence that this Apollo is the one that interacted with Octavian, visited Camp Jupiter... and yet he's definitely still the same Apollo that's got all the Greek familiarities, too.

Yes, my examples all seem to tend towards Mars, but that's because Apollo talks about Mars the most. One more little snippet:

I considered that. When my followers called, had I ever shown up and granted them three wishes? LOL, nope. Maybe one wish, if that wish was something I wanted to happen anyway. And if this ritual only allowed me to call one god, who would it be—assuming I could even choose? Perhaps my son Asclepius would be able to heal me, but he couldn’t very well fight the Roman emperors’ forces and the hordes of undead. Mars might grant us success on the battlefield, but he’d look at my wound and say something like Yeah, rough break. Die bravely!

Not only, when Apollo's considering which god would work best, does he have a solid prediction for what Mars' reaction would be to his wound, he also has faith that Mars would likely help Camp Jupiter.

Delving into Camp Jupiter proper, Apollo is openly familiar with the place. At the start of The Tyrant's Tomb, he tells Meg about visiting it:

“You know how to get to Camp Jupiter?” she asked. “Of course.” “ ’Cause you said that about Camp Half-Blood.” “We got there! Eventually.” “Frozen and half-dead.” “Look, the entrance to camp is right over there.” I waved vaguely at the Oakland Hills. “There’s a secret passage in the Caldecott Tunnel or something.” “Or something?” “Well, I haven’t actually ever driven to Camp Jupiter,” I admitted. “Usually I descend from the heavens in my glorious sun chariot. But I know the Caldecott Tunnel is the main entrance. There’s probably a sign. Perhaps a demigods only lane.”

Specifically, how he used to arrive, and the way he phrased it - usually - implies that it was more than a one-off visit, although we also know that the Roman gods tend to be even more absent than the Greek ones, considering how much of a big deal it was for first Juno and then Mars to appear in quick succession during SON. Greek god visiting a Roman camp? Why?

He mentions more familiarity with the camp a few times, but I'm picking this one out because it has not only some titbit about Jupiter but also actually directly addresses the ways mortals influence gods:

The lake’s south shore was the site of Temple Hill, with its chaotic assortment of shrines and monuments. On the summit, overshadowing everything else, was my father’s impressively ego-tastic Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus. If possible, his Roman incarnation, Jupiter, was even more insufferable than his original Greek personality of Zeus. (And, yes, we gods have multiple personalities, because you mortals keep changing your minds about what we’re like. It’s exasperating.) In the past, I’d always hated looking at Temple Hill, because my shrine wasn’t the largest.

He says "we gods" despite clearly being the same between Greek and Roman (at this point, the implication is so blatant it wouldn't make sense for it to be anything but the case, in my opinion), but on a tiny segue into real life mythology for a moment, Apollo - like the other gods - was viewed differently even within different areas of Ancient Greece, so he would still be affected by this in general, even if it's clearly not the case during modern PJO-era.

I'm not going to go into great detail on it here, because it's an essay in its own right, but of course there is another, huge, part of TOA that directly points to Apollo being the same: the Triumvirate.

All three of them are familiar with Apollo, and Apollo is equally familiar with all of them. The Roman emperor-god Caligula wants to replace this Apollo. Nero fully expects Apollo to recognise him (and, once he dredges it out of his mortal-teacup memory, Apollo does). And then, of course, there's Commodus.

Of course, when I visited Roman camps, I usually spent all my time in the commander’s tent, lounging and eating grapes like I used to do with Commodus…. Oh, gods, why was I torturing myself with such thoughts?

I grabbed this one because it also continues the theme of Apollo's familiarity with Camp Jupiter, and Romans in general, but it does also add in the pointer that it's this Apollo, our Apollo who's definitely not pure Roman, that remembers the romance with Commodus in so much depth. This Apollo is the one that had that romance.

Why would the Romans be so much of a threat, care about Apollo so much, if he wasn't their, Roman, god? Python, meanwhile, is very much from the Greek side of things - Greek and Roman enemies, both targeting the same facet of the same god.

Apollo being both Greek and Roman, at the same time, is the best-fit explanation for this that I can see, and I could continue to draw out more quotes and discussion on this, but I still want to get into how this affects his children, so I'm going to leave this section here.

Let's move onto his children.

The major point here the distribution of Apollo's descendants between the two camps: most of Apollo's children are in Camp Half-Blood.

In fact, if it were not for the known existence of Apollo Legacies (Octavian), and Frank's desperate hope to be a child of Apollo, it would seem that Camp Jupiter doesn't have any children of Apollo at all. As it is, the implication is that there are very few.

Why? Let's start with Octavian, and the augur position.

Octavian is a legacy of Apollo. He is not a son of Apollo; there are a few generations (at least) between them, and yet he is the one in the position of camp augur, which implies that there's no-one better for the job (or that has the money to bully their way in, but I don't think that's really the case here, which I'll get to in a minute). Octavian has prophecy powers (which actually throws a lot of other implications about Apollo's kids and which domains they inherit, let alone whether legacies actually have any demigod abilities, for a bit of a spin), although we heard from Apollo himself in BOO that he blessed Octavian, which is where I suspect his prophecy powers come from (but again a talk on legacies and power inheritance is for another time). How is a many-generation legacy the best person for the job?

Apollo has a lot of kids. It's inferable that he has more kids than any other god (bear in mind that the overly-populated cabin eleven also contained unclaimeds and minor gods' kids - take them away and the number of Hermes kids is almost certainly lower than the number of Apollo kids, but that's yet another topic for another time). It seems unrealistic that a legacy is a better fit for the job than one of his own kids when there should be so many of them running around.

But not only is Octavian the best fit for the position, he's also the only fit for the position:

No. Of course. The legion had no high priest, no pontifex maximus. Their former augur, my descendant Octavian, had died in the battle against Gaia. (Which I had a hard time feeling sad about, but that’s another story.) Jason would’ve been the logical next choice to officiate, but he was our guest of honor. That meant that I, as a former god, was the ranking spiritual authority. I would be expected to lead the funeral rites.

Over half a year after Octavian's death, Camp Jupiter still has no augur. Octavian has not been replaced, despite an augur being an incredibly important role. Yes, emphasis is put on Octavian throwing money and influence around to get his own way in HOO, but the fact that his position hasn't been filled after this long suggests that Camp Jupiter has no-one else who can.

We're also looking at the healers: Pranjal is a son of Asclepius, not Apollo.

“My name’s Pranjal,” said the young man. “Head healer for the legion. I worked on you when you first got here, but we didn’t really meet then, since, well, you were unconscious. I’m a son of Asclepius. I guess that makes you my grandpa.”

He's Will's counterpart for Camp Jupiter; it just seems really bizarre that there's no child of Apollo floating around and checking in on their dad.

In fact, we're not introduced to a single child of Apollo throughout the entirety of TTT, despite him interacting with a lot of the legion, and the fact that Apollo always seeks out his own children in the books. In Camp Jupiter, he spends time with not just Pranjal, but also Lavinia, the daughter of Terpsichore, one of the nine Muses - if his own children were around, why did he not interact with them? The only logical explanation is that there aren't any children of Apollo in the camp at this point (and, potentially, no other legacies, either, therefore leaving the augur position open because there's no-one around with any prophetic potential).

The conclusion here is that all of Apollo's kids, near enough, end up at Camp Half-Blood. It neatly explains why there's so many of them there (at least during PJO, before they get annihilated during the wars), while Camp Jupiter has so few. Why Camp Half-Blood? I made a separate essay on this, but in brief: Apollo is implied to be the patron god of Camp Half-Blood. It makes sense that he'd want to bring his children into the camp he founded, rather than let them go through Lupa's rough initiation and then to a camp named for his father and under the patronage of Mars.

And as Apollo is clearly both at the same time, that means his kids are also not going to be one or the other, and could therefore fit in easily wherever they end up.

There's one other little side-effect that would come into play here, though: languages.

Greek demigods are fluent in Ancient Greek. Roman demigods are fluent in Latin. Following this logic, Apollo kids would therefore be fluent in both.

This actually explains why Chiron teaches the Greek demigods Latin; it always seemed a bit weird to me that he'd spend the time to teach them Latin when they already have an old language they're fluent in, and Latin doesn't really fit with the otherwise very Greek theming. And yet, he's explicitly stated to have taught Annabeth, and of course Percy, and it's likely that he's taught the whole camp.

“He heard them talking in Latin.” “Latin? Were they campers?”

While Apollo's a little confused that people in the woods surrounding Camp Half-Blood were speaking Latin, he still doesn't discount that they could be campers based on that. It's only a small piece of evidence, but it's still there.

And on the Roman side... I am still no expert on Octavian, but the way he knows Greeks exist early on with a certainty that most of the legion dismiss suggests that he has some degree of proof. Yes, his conversations with Apollo may have brought that to the fore, but there's also the potential that Octavian knows because his family, and perhaps he himself, can speak in Ancient Greek despite never studying it. Octavian is many things, but stupid is not one of them.

Overall, the way Apollo is unaffected by the Greek-Roman schism, has no pause identifying as both the Greek Apollo and the Roman Apollo, and the fact that all of his known children are concentrated in one camp (particularly the one that he founded and remains connected to), heavily implies that there is no division between Greek and Roman for either him or his children.

TW// !!this is smut if you are comfortable with this, please leave!!

Summary: Donatello leaves during family movie night to take care of some “personal issues,” and gets busted.

——————✧◦♡◦✧——————

They had been planning this for weeks, literal weeks. The Jupiter Jim Movie marathon was about to begin. And Donatello was dreading it.

“Why so glum, hombre?” Leo said, wrapping an arm around his brother’s neck, stuffing a handful of popcorn into his mouth.

Donnie scowled at the talking with food in his mouth, “I’m not ‘glum,’ I’m simply tired.” He tried to play cool, knowing if he slipped up, this could be the end of him.

“Don, you say that every time we have a family thing,” Leo frowned, pulling away. “Do you just not want to spend time with your family?”

Donnie quickly retracted his words, “No! No! It’s just-... Never mind. I’ll go help Mikey with the soda.” Donnie resisted the urge to spill everything right there onto Leo’s face, but he didn’t. He knew he could trust Leo, but Donnie also knew, no, he couldn’t trust Leo.

“Michael, I'm here to help.” Donnie announced, walking into the kitchen.

“Great! Could you hand me the thingy?” Mikey gestured to the soda flavoring on the counter. Donnie handed it to him and rested on the counter, his shell leaning on the rounded edge of the island.

Donnie was caught up in thought.

It’s about time he admitted something; he really liked Runa. A lot more than just a friend. A lot more than a girlfriend. He didn’t know what it was, but he absolutely loved every aspect of her. Runa’s hair, her eyes, the way she could get so heated over a video game.

He smiled at the memory of Runa throwing down the controller and yelling, demanding a rematch and accusing Donnie of cheating.

He’d felt this way before, but never like this. His heart was constantly being torn every witch way and he hated it so much! Runa was not easy on his feelings, she always flirted with him and made him think she felt the same. Then, she’d turn around and express interest in other people. To say he was jealous was an understatement.

“Donnie?”

Donnie was great, but he couldn’t deny she deserved better than him. I mean, he’s getting jealous and they aren’t even dating!

“Donnie?”

What was he supposed to do? Admit his feelings and live forever in the friend-zone? Or keep a secret and carry this hate to everyone she dated?

“EARTH TO DONNIE, THE GIRLS ARE HERE.” Mikey cupped his hands and shouted into his ear.

“AH!” Donnie said, covering the side of his head where Mikey had shouted, “Okay, okay. I’ll grab the popcorn seasoning. Tell them I say ‘hi’ or whatever.”

Mikey looked at him, he’s been acting weird and now he wouldn’t even look at April or Runa? Orange frowned and swallowed the urge to ask about it, knowing he’ll never get an answer.

“Okay, I’ll be…sure to tell them.” Mikey said, debating on saying more.

By then, Donnie had already disappeared into the pantry. The girls walked into the Lair, holding extra pillows and blankets to make a fort.

“Hey, y’all!” April shouted happily behind the mountain of pillows, walking into the Lair. “We brought extra!”

Runa was holding the blankets, all neatly folded and stacked. She carried them in one hand, blanching them perfectly.

“And Runa brought the blankets for the walls of the fort,” April pointed out as they both walked over to the couch and started constructing the fort.

Raph started to help build the fort, making sure it was sturdy on each side. Leo helped set up the inside, making sure it was comfortable and big enough for everyone.

---💖---

After the movie got started, everyone got comfortable in their respective spots; April and Leo, accompanied by Mikey, under the tent, Raph sitting on the floor crisscrossed, with Runa and Donnie sitting on the couch a few feet apart.

He stole a few glaces to Runa, making him look back at his popcorn in shame.

Everything was going well, popcorn was warm, drinks were cool, jokes being made. So what was this uneasy feeling pulling at him? It just felt like everything was bothering him. It wasn’t a bad bother, just a uncomfortable one.

Donnie needed to leave, “I’m-I’m gonna go guys.” He chocked out hesitantly, smiling nervously.

“Alright, see ya,” was the general response. Except for Runa, “Where’re you going, Donnie?”

“Ah- You know, I just need a little break.” He lied.

“Oh, okay. See you in a few then.” Runa said, setting down her popcorn.

“SHUUUUSHHHH.” Leo said obnoxiously. Donnie rolled his eyes.

The purple turtle krept down the hallway and into his bed room, making sure to shut the door behind him. He went over the the small bed-side table and pulled out one of the drawers. He scooted some clothes to the side to reveal underwear.

Woman’s underwear.

He pulled them up by the lace hem and looked at them with a tired and slightly uneasy face. Donnie started to get undressed, taking off his large shirt first, then his pants.

Now he knew what the uncomfortable was. His dick, making a ruckus. The organ stood up tall, ready to be pleased. Sometimes, it had a mind of it’s own. Now, Donnie could feel the dusting of blush around his cheeks and nose, making a line across his features.

He pulled the undergarments to his snout, sniffing them. His thing twitched, awaiting the soon forceful hand that would stroke it to completion.

Donnie hated having to please himself like this. He knew it was wrong, gross, kinky and downright perverted; but he didn’t care anymore. It tasted so good.

Ever since he got a hold of her underwear, it’s been the only thing that could calm him down.

Runa had been the core problem, and now he was dealing with the after affects.

Why couldn’t she have just stayed all prissy? Why couldn’t they just go back to hating each other? Why’d she have to make him fantasize about her like this?

Almost all of the scent from the undies where gone, he could only really smell his breath. Donnie started to suckle on them after the pure stench alone stopped doing it for him. Damn, she tasted good.

Only to be actually tasting her, his tongue lapping up all the juices that flowed out of her, like water on a hot day. To hear her pant, and moan his name. To imagine her tied up and oh, so helpless.

To feel her tight pussy over his cock, creaming because she couldn’t handle him. To hear her scream to slow down.

The hand around his dick tightened, trying to get him to his climax as quickly as possible.

The things he wanted to do to her. Of course, he would never hurt her! Just tie her up and make her beg for him.

Donnie hadn’t even noticed himself growing louder, his once quite huffs now grew to loud groans as he flung his head back in pleasure, the image of Runa’s face flashed in his mind. He was so close! Damn, why did he have be able to go so long?

---💖---

“What’s taking Donnie so long?” Runa whispered out loud to herself.

“If you wanna see him so bad, just go check up on him.” Leo said with a sarcastic flaunt in his voice.

“Fine,” Runa huffed, getting up, “I will!”

Runa crept carefully down the halls, making it to Donnie’s room; soft moans and breathy groans were emanating from his room, bouncing off the walls and into her ears.

Runa blushed at the naughty thought that entered her head, shaking away the idea, she approached the door.

He’s probably working out, she thought, her face still red with embarrassment. She knocked on the door lightly, opening it slightly to peak in.

“Donnie?” She asked, opening the door slowly, only giving Donnie enough time to attempt to cover himself, underwear still on snout and a bewildered look on his face.

“What are you-...Oh, oh my...” was the only shocked expression Runa could muster out, gazing at his redden face, his exposed and twitching member, and her underwear and his snout!

“It-It’s not what it looks like!” He said quickly, trying to push his peaking dick back down, only to make it jump back up.

Runa could only stare at it, his thighs, covered in sweat and pre-cum. Her eyes made their way back up to his face.

“Then, what is it?” She asked, her personality snapping back into action.

Donnie was at a loss for words. What was he supposed to say? “Oh, yeah, I’ve actually been getting off to your underwear for the past few months”?

“I-.. Uh-...” He looked down at the floor, too embarrassed to say anything.

“Are those mine?” She hissed, surprisingly no disgust in her voice.

“Uh...” Donnie couldn’t lie, “Y-Yes...”

“And where you... eating them?”

“No, I was, uh, sucking on them...” That answer wasn’t any better.

“Give them back, I-I don’t want to give you access to these anymore.” Runa held out her hand expectantly, looking away. She stole glaces at Donnie as he slowly pulled himself away from the edge of his bed, taking the underwear out of his mouth and placed it in her hand.

The swift movement made only more awkward as their hands touch, making Donnie wince and Runa’s face heat more.

Donnie didn’t know if he should sit back down and continue or just stand there until she left.

“Runa...” Donnie started, holding his arm and looking down shamefully, “I-I don’t know what came over me. I just-... I didn’t mean to go that far.”

“What? Is that how you apologize for using my underwear as a cum rag?” Runa fumed, keeping it quite.

“Yes?” Donnie smiled nervously, “And I wasn’t using it as a cum rag, that’s disgraceful to someone so beautiful.”

The words struck her, a pang in her heart, the thought to do something impulsive. It all came too fast. Beautiful? Was he joking?

After a moment of processing, and reflecting, she finally opened her mouth.

“Are you serious?” She asked, genuinely intrigued now, “You think I’m beautiful?”

“M-More then beautiful,” Donnie hesitated, “I don’t know how to describe you, you’re so amazing.”

Runa blushed, out of all the times he choose to flirt...

Then, Runa got an idea.

She stuffed the wet underwear into her back pocket and slowly started to descend to her knees, resting on them in front of Donnie.

“What are you doing?” He said quickly, following her with his eyes.

“Giving you want you want,” She purred, “May I?”

Donnie’s eyes widened before vigorously nodding, “Mhmm! Go ahead!”

“Don’t act so excited for me.” She smirked.

Donnie’s slightly annoyed expression came back to his features, “Just suck it.”

Runa hummed as she slid her hands to Donnie’s thighs, placing them firmly on his sides and squeezing, making his dick throb.

Runa licked the top of her mouth, trying to get the most saliva on her tongue as she could. She opened her mouth wide, letting Donnie see all the goodness he was about to feel.

She slowly slide her mouth over the thick member, feeling every bit of it with her tongue. It was smooth and hot, being more thick on the tip then the base. The deep purple melded perfectly with the pastel pink of her tongue, making Donnie groan slightly.

Donnie looked at her at with the most fucked-up face she’d ever seen, he looked totally wasted. He was panting, beads of sweat forming on his face. Runa was getting him riled up, and she knew it. Runa started to moan, making Donnie wince and heave.

Then, without warning, Donnie grabbed the back of Runa’s head and shoved it forward, making her gag. After she adjusted, he started continue to shove her face into his dick, making muffled moans. The slopping of the two organs together sounded like music to Donnie’s ears.

After a few minutes of face-fucking, he felt close, “Mmm, just a few more.. A-And I’ll be good, baby.” He panted.

Runa looked up, face full of saliva and pre-cum, “Mmm,” she said, Donnie’s hard cock still in her mouth. Suddenly, she took him all back in, sucking hard then dragging her teeth along the length of his cock.

Donnie didn’t even care about volume anymore; he moaned out loudly as he came, letting it get caught in her mouth as she swallowed some, letting the rest paint her face in a wondrous white.

Donnie bent down, grabbing the side of her mouth and spreading it open to see his seed sitting in her mouth. He moved his thumb from her mouth to her check, giving her a heated kiss, pulling away and leaving a string of cum and spit.

Runa laughed, her eyelids felt heavy and she felt tipsy, but still fully sober. She didn’t know how to describe it, but it was so intoxicating.

“Hmm,” Donnie hummed, sitting on the side of his bed, “I still seem to be aroused, despite cumming, heh, quite a lot.”

“Mmm, maybe you need more then just oral,” Runa smiled lazily, picking herself up and started to strip of her sweat pants. Donnie stared as she removed the pants. He could feel himself starting to get hard again.

As soon as she started to waddle over, Donnie felt his heart explode. He couldn’t take it, this was it, he finally getting what he wanted. Once she started to get comfortable sitting on his lap, and started rubbing his thighs, he stopped her.

“Runa,” He breathed, “Once I start, I don’t think I’ll be able to stop, dear. I don’t want to hurt you. Soft shell turtles are naturally... more aggressive.”

Runa licked her lips, “Good, this’ll be more fun.”

Runa positioned herself on Donnie’s lap, grinding on his exposed dick with her covered pussy, making Donnie’s face go to that of uncomfortable. He grabbed Runa by the hips and flipped her over, now standing between her open legs.

Donnie looked at helpless she’d become. He chuckled deviously, “I’m gonna make you regret asking me to be rough.”

Runa saw the animistic lust in his eyes, knowing there’s no humanity left. Her face burst into flames, her tail flicking back and forth. She bit her lips as Donnie put a hand on her back and guided her up softly, making her sit on the edge of the bed.

Donnie went and grabbed his battle shell, smirking, he looked back at her in her underwear and shirt. He pulled out what seemed to be a video recorder, and some kind of rope?

Runa’s stomach got heavy butterflies.

He set up the camera and stood behind it, pointing it at Runa.

“Okay, strip.” He commanded, licking his teeth behind the camera.

“Wha-?” Runa blushed, you could probably see all her freckles inder the thin layer or fur on her face.

“You heard me,” He huffed, slightly upset at the repetitive command, “Strip.”

She started to slowly take of her shirt, making sure get his attention with a sway of her hips. After the shirt was off, she reached for her bra, giggling her breasts. She moaned his name slightly, trying to keep herself quite in case he didn’t want her to say anything.

“Say it again.” He demanded.

Runa started to play with her breasts now, moaning his name with every touch. Donnie looked down at his dick, now wet with pre-cum again. He huffed and commanded her to get on all fours.

“Now take them off.”

Runa slowly slid down her panties, purple and laced, teasing. After they were off, she waved her hips back and forth, moaning. Donnie stopped the camera and grabbed the rope. It was a soft velvet, so it wouldn’t hurt her.

Donnie helped Runa back up, taking the time to admire her dripping pussy. He flipped her over onto some pillows, making sure she was comfortable before tying her up with the velvet rope.

Runa laughed a bit, “Damn, you really know what you want, darling.”

“Yeah, I want you begging for my cock.” He said smugly, stroking his member, getting the pre-cum under his tip and around the largest areas, making it slick. Runa squirmed at the sight, making her eyes well up with tears as she pleaded with Donnie.

“Please, Don,” She begged, “If you’re going to fuck me, ju-just do it already! I can’t watch you, please, I need you inside me, ah~!”

“Hush now, dear.” He quieted her with a small handkerchief, embroidered with his initials, “You have to watch first, make sure you can take all of me.”

“Donnie, ugh!” Runa struggled against the velvet, “I’m a rabbit! I’m built to be bread!” She cried.

Donnie chuckled, stroking his dick again, “If you say so, but if I rip your uterus in half, just say I warned you.”

“Ah~! Don’t say things like that!” Runa’s face got more red, he cupped it, now leaning over her and positioning himself near her entrance. He leaned down and kiss her, whispering a sweet “Are you ready, love?”

Runa nodded her head as he started to enter his tip into her, making her moan and wiggle.

“Stay still, and it won’t be so painful,” He warned.

Runa sat still and let him enter her more, almost immediately adjusting to his huge cock, that was almost double the original size. She moaned as he started to go all the way in, her pussy sucking him in, encouraging him to go deeper.

The words echoed in Donnie’s head, “built to be bread?” Tch, we’ll see.

Donnie got comfortable once more at started at a slow pace making her moan with every slap of skin. The way her thighs and tits bounced with every strong thrust made him groan. He watched her arms struggle to try and get free of the velvet, groping at the rope, trying to grab and scratch at something.

Donnie grabbed he thighs, pulling out to kiss and bite them, talking into them. “Mmm, who’s my beautiful princess?”

“I-I am, Donnie.” She huffed out, her face scrunching up and her eyes closed.

“Good girl,” He stopped kissing her legs and pondered the name, “Hmm, plane old Donnie doesn’t sound good enough. Call me ‘Daddy’, m’kay, love?”

“Y-Yes, Daddy.” Runa stuttered out.

“Good.” Donnie lined himself back up with her hole, taking it slow once again.

“Da-Daddy, please, rail me.” Runa begged.

“If you insist, princess.” Donnie started to go faster, the skin slapping together made the sounds of the moaning die down.

Donnie started going even faster, making Runa moan, almost scream, before Donnie put the handkerchief back in her mouth to muffle the noise as he continued to rail her. He gripped his sheets, instinctively biting Runa’s neck, pinning her down.

Donnie just let his instincts run wild in that moment, scratching at the sheets, biting and humping the life out of Runa. After the felt himself getting close, he finally released his teeth from Runa’s soft skin and pulled out, seeing Runa had already came at least 4 times.

Donnie smirked as he saw her cream pour out of her, he took out the handkerchief and looked at her lovingly.

“Where do you want it, Love?” He asked, stroking her cheek.

Runa groaned, “I-In me, Daddy! Please, cum in me, ah~!”

Donnie looked away, nervously. He wanted so bad to just cum inside her and clam her as his own. Watch his seed flow out of her with a beautiful white stream.

But at the same time, he didn’t want to be responsible for getting her pregnant. He wasn’t ready to be a father.

“Darling,” He said calmly, “Are you on the pill?”

“Yes, Daddy,” Runa answered, still clearly drunk on love, “Just, put your dick in me already! Fill me up with your seed, mm~.”

“If you insist, Princess.” Donnie started to rail her again, making sure to hit her spot, making her wiggle.

After she screamed as he came inside her, he pulled out, now fully able to relax. He untied Runa as she rubbed her writs and panted. He watched his juices flow out of her, he felt like he had done a good job. A sense of affection and pride welled in him.

Donnie gazed at her, pulling her by her waist into him, kissing her forehead. He hugged her close to him and laid down, with Runa laying on his chest. Donnie started stroking her hair and rubbing her ears, humming a soft song.

“Did you enjoy yourself?” Donnie asked.

“More then enjoyed, God, you’re so good.” Runa said happily, making a kiss noise at the tip of his nose.

“Thank you, baby.” Donnie smiled, catching his breath, “Does thins mean we’re dating now?”

“No, I think we’re married now.” Runa said.

Donnie laughed, oh, she was serious. “Well, I couldn’t imagine anyone else to be my wife.”

“Really?” Runa looked at him with earnest, “You really mean it?”

“Oh, hell yeah,” Donnie smiled, “You’re the cutest badass this planet has ever seen.”

“Mmm, you make me so happy, Donnie.” Runa yawned.

“I’m glad, darling.”

---BONUS---

“Hey, Leo,” April nudged Leo, making him look over at her with a disgusted look for interrupting his hyper-fixation.

“What?” Leo snarled.

“Did you ever find out what that noise was?” April asked.

Leo’s face went red, “Well, lets just say Donnie was doing some stuff. And that stuff is Runa,” Leo snarked.

The rest of the family looked at each other uncomfortably.

“Turn up the volume, Mike,” Raph said, looking visibly uncomfortable.

They didn’t bother getting Runa or Donnie for breakfast the next morning.

The Story So Far... Part 1 of 2

Okay party turtles, listen up! Before we can progress with the planned storyline for TTATC, I want to make sure everyone is caught up on the previous arc, "Loss, Love and Alien Invasion." Here's a summarized version of the major plot points for this arc.

Divided into two parts because Tumblr is weak and won't let me post it together.

Auditions will be opened tomorrow for new characters! Those will be announced on each blog as well!

Leo struggles with self worth after the invasion. Noticing that the Foot Clan is up to something nefarious, the brothers investigate and manage to stop them from robbing a bank.

Donnie and Leo see the money in the back, and being the little shits that they are, decide to steal it.

Leo goes out on his own for patrols and begins to notice that he's being followed. Taking care in the next time that they go out, Leo goes with Mikey to watch out for him, only for the two of them to be attacked by a group of bounty hunters.

The fam discovers that the Foot Clan placed a bounty on their heads after Donnie and Leo took their money. Some research on Donnie and Leo's part reveals the bounty hunters to be a group of Kaikishi warriors from Neo Edo, a city of yokai similar to the Hidden City of New York within Japan. These bounty hunters are Chizu, Gen, Ktisune, and brothers Miyamoto and Yuichi Usagi.

The brothers agree that leaving the lair is risky for the time being, and turn to help from the one person they know with connections to the Hidden City; Big Mama, in hopes that she can help them get rid of the bounty. Leo of course doesn't trust this, but agrees with his team. This turns out to be a terrible decision when Big Mama betrays them, capturing all the brothers except for Leo. She sends her masked assistant after him, and Leo takes to hiding in the vents.

While doing so, he discovers that the Usagi brothers are also staying in the hotel, and follows them to learn more information. He doesn't get very far before he has to choose between vent spiders or jumping them. This doesn't go well as he is soon discovered by the masked assistant, and is forced to fight the three of them at once, resulting in Leo very injured as well as the discovery that the assistant is a Turtle, who looks exactly like him. Leo frees his brothers, and they investigate the assistant, discovering she is their long lost sister Draxum had assumed dead.

They scheme to get her back, but Leo decides to clear his head by going out for a run. Leo encounters Miyamoto, who looks to talk instead of fight.

Miyamoto accuses Leo of being a dishonorable ninja, but questions him on why he went back to his team when he could have escaped. Leo's loyalty catches Miyamoto off guard, and Miyamoto slowly begins to gain respect for him as a fellow leader. The two agree to a friendly spar, when they are interrupted by Yuichi, Miyamoto's younger brother. Yuichi thinks Leo is attacking Miyamoto, but his brother convinces him otherwise and the three part ways for the time being.

There's another excursion to the hotel, but not for a fight - rather because the brothers believe their sister should know the truth about where she's from. It seems she doesn't care, and attacks them, especially Leo, breaking his arm and sending them away. They take refuge in the lair to recover.

Later, the others go out for dinner with April, Cassandra and Casey, while Leo stays home to rest. This turns out to be a mistake when Leo is attacked by four out of five of the bounty hunters, Miyamoto noticeably missing.

Unfortunately, Leo is captured and taken to Big Mama, who plans to collect his bounty. The family goes to help Leo escape, only to realize Leo had managed to talk their sister into helping him - not only that, they are aided by Miyamoto himself, who believes that the turtles aren't really the bad guys here thanks to Leo's explanation.

They are discovered, and their sister is forced to abandon Big Mama for her true family. The sister takes the name Venus De Milo as she helps the fam take Leo home, where she meets her father for the first time. She claims to not want to stick around for long, and the turtles accept this.

Leo and Donnie take advantage of their new twin sister by indoctrinating her into pranks, Mikey helps her cook, and Raph helps her meditate.

Leo begins to realize they haven't heard from the Foot Clan in a long time, and starts to investigate what they're up to, believing they placed the bounty on everyone's heads as a distraction.

Things are tense but peaceful until Miyamoto arrives, with news that his brother has been captured. Big Mama believes Yuichi was the one to assist in Leo's escape, and Miyamoto and his friends need help to free him before he's forced into the battle nexus. The brothers all refuse, except for Leo, who knows exactly what Miyamoto is going through.

Leo disobeys orders and portals himself, Miyamoto and their friends to the dungeon Yuichi is kept in, much to the other rabbits obvious chagrin. Leo tries to stay out of the ensuing fight due to his injuries, but ultimately can't help it and is forced to defend himself. One of Big Mama's goons lands a nasty hit to his head, knocking him unconscious and sending Miyamoto into a rage.

The Neo Edo crew bring Leo home, and express an apology for their actions. Splinter allows them to temporarily stay in the lair until they can find a way home. Yuichi and Leo are not happy with the arrangement, but everyone agrees to a truce for the time being.

After some recovery time, Donnie decides to take everyone out to a rave, including the Neo Edo crew. During the rave, Leo, Miyamoto and Yuichi take refuge in the bathroom from all the noise, with Miyamoto parting early to get away from Leo and Yuichi bickering. One thing leads to another, and eventually the two begin to kiss. Donnie walks in and Raph nearly catches them, before they both escape to the Turtle Tank. Leo unfortunately realizes his feelings for Yuichi during this time, only to be shot down as Yuichi asks him to pretend that the events of the night never occurred.

Donnie and Venus both learn of this, with Donnie comforting Leo and Venus punching Yuichi in the face the next day.

Leo figures out why the Foot Clan were distracting them; they'd been planning a heist to free Sister Kraang from government detainment. He and the brothers intercept them, only to realize that she's already been freed. During the attack, she attaches herself to Leo's arm, but gets thrown off by Casey. Afterwards, Miyamoto and Yuichi help Leo patch up his arm, and Yuichi officially apologizes for his actions.

Leo and Casey have a family night together, with Casey revealing some concerns he has to Leo about the Kraang. They both admit that they fear they really stopped the future, and decide to investigate the technodrome wreckage in the city.

In doing so, they discover it is not as uninhabited as once thought, with a face hugger thing attacking Leo, and the entire group being attacked by a giant Kraang monster. Once it sees Leo, it tries to cocoon him, and he begins to hear voices whispering about, "host," and, "prime."Yuichi and Miyamoto arrive on the scene and free Leo. They finish the fight, with Leo warning them not to get any of the Kraang ooze on or in them.

20 questions for fic writers

tagged by the @boltlightning the myth the legend

1. how many total works do you have on ao3? 31

2. what’s your total ao3 word count? 137,304

3. what fandoms do you write for? mostly potc, but i did toss out that one roland fic the other day. also at some point hornblower and his dragon will be published. i promise bolt. i will not abandon justinian. he also likely wouldn't allow me to anyways. he is likely just outside my window at this very second

(putting it the rest under a cut as this is a bit long)

4. what are your top 5 fics by kudos?

a birthday dinner for two (tears of themis)

i would do it again (tot)

partners in everything (tot)

party in the mansion (fe3h)

learning to trust (fe3h)

of the five, learning to trust is definitely my favorite and the one that i think actually deserves the kudos. like not that the others are bad but tot is up there because of fandom popularity and then the other 3h once was for an exchange

5. do you respond to comments? usually!

6. what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? i was gonna put one of the potc fics here but it feels more bittersweet than angsty so i'll return to my hubert and edelgard pov azure moon fic that i remembered from last time (our paths end here)

7. what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? i'm p sure last time i did this one i did one of my tot fics which makes sense bc they're basically the only happy ones but i don't think i'd published this one yet? who knows. anyways partners in everything

8. do you get hate on fics? thankfully no but i did get a somewhat rude one that one time

9. do you write smut? only fade to black here and i don't think i've ever posted any of that anyways. don't hold your breath on this changing but also if you're following me expecting that kind of content to begin with you are. in the wrong place

10. do you write crossovers? what's the craziest one you've written? i don't usually but i have done hockey aus for two separate fandoms (3h & pb) so there's that. i wouldn't consider that too crazy though

11. have you had a fic stolen? / 12. have you had a fic translated? / 13. have you ever co-written a fic? keeping these stuck together with a no for me as well. i did do a back and forth writing thing with a former friend but that was for a personal project

14. what's your all-time favorite ship? i am not really a big shipper! i went through my charmed tag the other day so i guess i can say piper/leo bc i was very into them when i was watching. if we can extend ship to being not necessarily romantic then we all know that The Horny Lads have rewritten my brain

15. what's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? great question! i can't think of any bc if i don't think i'll ever finish a wip i likely. don't want to finish it

16. what are your writing strengths? i'm good with dialogue especially banter and since i refuse to write fics where i can't get into the head of the pov character i'd like to think my characterization is solid

17. what are your writing weaknesses? society if i could describe things without suffering. i will blame the aphantasia

18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? i'm not sure i've given it much thought since i haven't done it before. i'd def be scared of messing something up

19. first fandom you wrote for? my first ao3 fic was for pb but i know i did fics before that. i'm gonna guess hp since that was my first fandom

20. favorite fic you've written? look i have to hype this fic up bc it has an audience of like five people but i put a lot of love and time into my fernand character study (the fallen knight)

i tag @writingbyricochet (not sure how much fanfic/ao3 you do since your blog is mostly original worksso feel free to ignore this/adapt as needed) and @philcoulsonismyhero and whoever else wants to do this!

#thank you bolt #i will always love our writing strengths and weaknesses being the reverses of each other #insert reverse flash joke which doesn't land bc i don't think you're a dc person but know that it brings me joy to make it #boltlightning

35/36. @tmnt-event-blog

The guys "decorate" Donnie's lab.

For some reason, Donnie was barred from his lab. It was fair enough, the brain fog keeping him from doing any more work than staring at the circuit for hours on end trying to remember which wire went where and why the opposite of what he was trying to achieve was happening. But it never got to a point where he was kicked out of his own lab by his brothers, even weirder how April and Raph were sent to watch over him.

Well, to that, Donnie could've easily waltzed back inside...

"Say, Donnie, if we were to use one of the empty rooms here as a greenhouse, which one would you pick?"

Oh.

"Ah, under these conditions, putting together a greenhouse underground would be very difficult..."

They didn't tell him to stop, nor did they walk away. They just let him keep talking. Heh, it felt strange to be listened to.

"Natural sunlight and storage problems aside, proper wind circulation and humidity to simulate natural environments are just as difficult to achieve..."

And he was listened to when it mattered, but it felt weird to have all the focus put on him. Huh, there was only one other instance where they gave him so much room to talk.

"Not to mention the larger plants that may need more room to cultivate and grow... Wait a minute! You guys are trying to distract me!"

"Ah, the jig is up..."

Raph laughed lightly. "But we really are thinking of giving you a plant room."

"Dearest Raphael, I appreciate the gesture, but one: it is a greenhouse, two: no room, both in the old and this lair, is suitable enough to house a plantation, and three: what are you fools doing to my lab!?"

Mikey stuck his head out of the room, "Keep him out there! We're not done yet!"

His head dipped back in. There was a brief moment of eye contact where Donnie prepared to rush back inside, only for the top of his battle shell to be yoinked and lifted off the ground.

"Donnie, it's for your own good!"

"The last time you distracted me for this reason, you blew a prototype up!"

April shot a look directly at Raph, who cleared his throat and laughed nervously, "It fell...?"

"Explains the Great Lab Ban of O'Twelve..."

"We don't talk about the Lab Ban of O'Twelve..."

"That's besides the point! What do you all think you're doing to my lab!?"

"Sit down; I wasn't lying when I said it's for your own good!" Donnie was placed back on his seat, huffing.

"Fine, fine, okay. Whatever you all did to it, I'll just fix it when you're done."

"You won't need to!" Leo walked out of the lab, the same cocky grin on his face, "Trust us, Dee. You'll like this."

The softshell raised an eyebrow, but relented and walked in. "I remain doubtful, but amuse me."

He looked around... And it was just hitting him how unorganised the lab was. Huh, was it really that long since he cleaned up in there?

He turned to the right side, seeing all of his tools and instruments lined up in alphabetical order. To the left, the many prototypes and blueprints organised in neat rolls or placed in order of priority. In the centre of his work desk was the very thing circuit he was working on; untouched.

"Wait, what, why?"

"Your room was a mess, Dee. Someone had to do something about it."

"Those someones were us~"

A pause.

"No need to thank us. We only did it because we wanted to." Mikey mumbled the next part, "Even if our wanting to was out of frustration."

"Yeah, dude, it was impossible to find anything in there."

Donnie blinked, unable to stifle a chuckle before pulling them all into an embrace.

"This is new..."

"I love you guys, thank you..."

I just wanted to say, I really love ur art (like, all ur TMNT 2003 stuff, ur TMNT IDW stuff, and ur TMNT: Dark Fate stuff)! It is all really awesome. U have such a cute and nice style, and u can recreate other styles too really well.

Also, as a Leo fan, ur blog has been very nice for that/as a Leo fan too (I love the others too though! They are all great. I just have my favorite).

Besides all the TMNT 2003 stuff, I really liked that TMNT IDW City Fall Leo you did (I love that arc, and I love that Leo look very much. Man, I want an animated adaption of City Fall and/or Foot Leo someday. With that look or something similar, but just as awesome. I want that so much), and that one post with Mikey, Jennika, and Leo texting too!

Ur TMNT: Dark Fate art, comics, descriptions, etc.; have been really interesting and cool so far. I am really interested in ur own iteration! I love how they all have powers (I really liked that kind of thing/stuff w/ Rise), and the powers they have (I think of other powers that would suit them too, but the ones u have defin. suit them very well).

I love them all, though I think Leo and Donnie are my favorites description, design, etc. wise (for the turtles at least). They are all very good though.

I find it interesting that Leo and Raph's powers mirror each other (while Donnie and Mikey's mirror each other), however Donnie and Raph are actually the twins with each other, and Mikey and Leo have some parallels design wise (like the longer bandanna tails, which I love), and are the two younger ones. Idk, I just find that interesting. (Are Mikey and Leo twins too, or just the two younger ones?). Also, even while not the eldest, and in this case, 2nd youngest, Leo can't escape being the Leader lol (like in Rise. Though, with Rise Leo, I see stuff and debates with/about him being 2nd oldest and/or 2nd youngest with him. I like both, though, sometimes I might lean more one or the other).

Man though, what did Splinter do to poor Leo at Age 7 that changed his attitude so much? Now, I am on edge w/ ur version of Splinter. I don't trust him.

Ur Casey and April designs are great too! I love April being really into aliens, and them being cousins! Honestly, that is really inspired.

Really excited for more of ur TMNT: Dark Fate comic and stuff; when u can. Probably one of my favorite TMNT fan versions/iterations I have stumbled across.

One last thing, (sorry for how long this has gotten), but I know u are steadily watching and/or reading the different TMNT versions, and I know u have watched TMNT 2003 and read (at least some of TMNT IDW), and I just wanted to ask how far in TMNT IDW u were in (I am guessing pretty far or all the way through), and if u have started any of the other versions yet?

I think u may have already watched Rise, but don't quote me on that.

Just asking this because I am curious, you don't have to answer this. :) Alright, done for now, have a good day/night!

oh my gosh, this might just be the ask ever 😭🧡 thank you SO SO much for liking my content and taking the time to send this ask!! It means so much to me and i super appreciate it

I’m glad you liked how i assigned the elements in DF! The ones with opposing elements will have the most conflict with one another 😉 Leo is a year older than Mikey (he is 16 and Mikey is 15)

For DF Splinter: hehe, without going into detail, he imposes a mindset that may not be healthy on his sons. There will come a point where they realize this and have a disagreement

Overall I’m glad you’ve taken interest in my AU and i hope you stick around for more!!!

I’m still catching up on IDW, though I am reading issues as they are releasing (so i have read 140!). I am currently on issue 67 :) I have also read The Last Ronin and Lost Years, and the MMPR x TMNT crossover, and I’m reading Saturday Morning Adventures. I have gotten into collecting the comics so theres some others i have as well!

And yep I have seen rise! I am currently watching 2012 and i still need to finish 87. Still need to pick up next mutation, too.

Thank you so much again for your wonderful ask!!

#ask #tmnt dark fate #this made me so happy

𝐆𝐄𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐔𝐍.

== BASICS

NAME : Lila

PRONOUNS : I’m a girl

ZODIAC SIGN : Leo

TAKEN OR SINGLE : Unfortunately married

== THREE FACTS

I've done musical theater for half of my life.

I attended Full Sail University, and during my enrollment I was a part of Spark and was able to intern for NXT and a bunch of other projects.

I’m indigenous and don't celebrate the holiday that took place yesterday. I do however celebrate my niece's birthday that was yesterday, and got really badly sunburnt.

== EXPERIENCE

PLATFORMS USED : tumblr. I dabbled in discord for a little bit, but I don't care for it as much, and I'm massively picky with who I actually give my discord to. (I also keep forgetting that I HAVE discord and keep forgetting to check it.)

PLOTTING / WINGING IT / MEMES : Memes are a really great way to start something for me, unless its a plot. I feel like I'm not too good at plotting without a dynamic set up to start. I like starting things off naturally and just seeing how muses react, and I tend to "plot as we go".

== MUSE PREFERENCE

GENDER : I definitely have a tendency to write more female characters over male (just look at this blog), but I do write male characters too.

MULTI OR SINGLE : It genuinely doesn't matter. I have multiple blogs, this one and a bunch of single muse blogs.

LEAST FAVOURITE FACECLAIM(S) : People that are known to be massively problematic and abusive. I get kinda uncomfy with dead FCs, though if its a specific character that they've played (like David Bowie as Jareth, Rik Mayall as Drop Dead Fred, Brandon Lee as Eric Draven, etc) I tend to overlook it because it can be hard to recast such iconic roles for the sake of a hobby. I myself have been wanting to add The Warlock all year, but have held off out of respect to the loss of Julian Sands (one of my favorite actors, to the point I almost named my son after him.) But using someone deceased on an OC feels weird to me.

== FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT

FLUFF: Fluff is fantastic! Sometimes its definitely NEEDED. If I've been feeling bad, or if I've been writing A LOT of angst, fluff can help ground my emotions again.

ANGST: I enjoy angst so much.

SMUT: I only write smut with people I absolutely trust and talk to OOC. I don't care if someone says "I'm 50, let's write smut!" if I don't feel comfortable with you, or we've barely talked/interacted, it's not going to happen.

tagged by: my darling @lettherebemonsters <3 tagging: anyone that wants to do it

Hey guys, it's been a while lol

I'm terribly sorry for leaving you guys hanging for, uh, nearly a year now??? I got really bad burnout and just couldn't do Tumblr anymore so I quit

I still love Inscryption so if y'all wanna talk about it my main is @h4zardousch3micals but as an apology for leaving you without the end I'll just tell you how this blog was supposed to go

So after M and P03 finally get over their trust issues M reveals that their name is actually Mason. Then, there's a knock at the door, Mason goes to answer it but P03 - remembering what happened to Luke - freaks out and demands that they check who it is first. Lo and behold, it's Amanda - Mason's sister.

Mason and P03 argue about what to do and it looks like Mason is trusting Amanda more when they suddenly get shot at. It misses, luckily, so in a panic they grab their computer and Biscuits (the cat) and run out the back. Terrified and unsure of what to do Mason drives to a hotel at which point they finally have somewhere to set their computer up again and P03 is relived to know that they're still alive (though they still hide it under an attitude)

Knowing that Amanda could be right behind them and the police won't believe them if they say "a sentient robot living inside my computer told me my sister is possessed by a demon", Mason travels all the way across the country to meet their friends Gigi, Leo and Penny (remember Indigodessy from discord? That's Penny) who agreed to let them move in. Gigi is absolutely fascinated by P03 and curious to learn more accidentally discovers Inscryption on steam. (Also there was supposed to be some scene where the human squad remind P03 of the Scrybes and it gets sad because I love torturing this robot wow)

They discover that every time one of them gets Inscryption and loads it up on their computer, something is wrong that makes it different from the original (ranging from little things like personality swaps to huge things like it now being a shooter game instead of a card game) and the end goal ends up being finding a version that's similar enough to the original that P03 could live in it, all while trying to avoid Amanda and other Gamefuna employees. Do they ever succeed? Sorry to disappoint but idk I didn't write that far. I like to think they did tho

Also I totally shipped M x P03 the whole time but I was terrified to actually make it canon because I was worried people would call it cringe or think M was a Self-insert which they were but that's besides the point—

The point is:

TRAINEE A- When They Get Jealous(Imagine)

Pairing: YOU x TA member (boyfriend ver.)

Genre: fluff

Warning: NADA

• When he sees how the other boy tries to flirt with you by complimenting you and showing you his smirk, that irked Yorch inside. Since it wasn’t a really big deal he clenched his teeth, tightened his fist until his knuckles turned white. He tries look away from you two so he doesn’t get more angry but once he hears you say“hey stop….I have a boyfriend….” That’s when Yorch pulls you behind him. He glares at the guy and points at him with his index finger. “ This is a warning….next time I see you looking at her…..You’re not gonna like what I’m going to do to you…..” Yorch smirks and holds you with protection.

• ‘Why the hell is he talking to her….’ He thought as he saw a classmate of his flirting with you. At first Leo wanted to shake it off by thinking ‘well he is only saying that she’s pretty which is true so I won’t make a big deal about it BUT if he says something inappropriate or touches her in someway I think I’ll kill-‘ his thoughts were interrupted when he saw how the boy rubbed his hand on your hand softly. “Hey! Back off! Don’t touch my girl like that!” He yells at the scared boy. Leo’s eyes were threatening the guy. You chuckled quietly to the situation since the boy only was helping you by rubbing your injured hand with Vaseline. Of course Leo thought wrong and that in some way makes you happy.

• He usually doesn’t get jealous at all since he trust you. Now about the other guys saying how pretty you are….well that is true because Sangwon has a very beautiful girlfriend so because of that he understands the other guys that admire your beauty. He really likes showing you off to others because he has the prettiest and kindest girlfriend ever. HOWEVER……he doesn’t tolerate it when an idiot starts back hugging you. That idiot is teaching you how to use a golf stick appropriately and his back was too close to yours. No no no! Sangwon suddenly pulls the boy by the arm harshly away from you but not too aggressively. “Thank you, now it’s my turn to teach my girlfriend…..” Sangwon smiles sweetly at the boy. ‘Idiot…’ he thought.

•He was biting the inside of his bottom lip controlling his jealousy towards the boy who seem to be flirting with you. The teacher put you and another boy to work together. That obviously didn’t made him happy but what can he do. He couldn’t concentrate on his work because he kept watching him flirt with you. Meanwhile you were pretending to have fun talking to him but in reality you were annoyed since you want to finish your work and Woochan can see that through you which that made him feel really happy. Woochan had a plan so he immediately finish his school work with his partner. He taps harshly on the boy’s back. “Hey! Y’all wanna copy?” Woochan grinned innocently showing his dimples. You smiled and nodded. After finishing the work less than 10 minutes, Woochan pushed his partner off his seat (with his permission of course) and made you sit next to him. “Now you can flirt with him…” Woochan “joked”. The boy just glared at him and went back to his work. Woochan felt proud of his smartness and kiss your cheeks.

•”hahaha! Yeah man yeah!…..haha….yeah your eyes on me bro! Not on my girl hahah! Yeah that’s so funny! Haha” James had to pretend everything was ok when it wasn’t. He didn’t like the way the boy stare at you with love eyes. ‘ No one is taking her away from me……unless she wants to leave me BUT THAT WONT HAPPEN!’ He thought as his eyebrows furrowed down. Suddenly the boy touch your shoulder and that started the fire. “BABE,MY pretty GIRLFRIEND….MY future WIFE…..let’s go get ice cream” he smiled sweetly at you as he exaggerated each word loudly. “Can I come with you two?” The boy speaks. “NOOOOO this is a boyfriend and girlfriend date! We don’t need you 3rd wheeling…..see you never-LATER I mean” with that said James grabbed your hand and walk away.

• Jay had to covered his entire mouth with both of his hands. He was scared to suddenly walk towards him, start cussing him out and lastly throw a punch at him. He’s tiny but spicy! The boy who he dislikes is talking to you. However nothing wrong seems to be going on so he won’t make a drama about it. HOWEVER that boy he hates is sitting next to you and his eyes doesn’t stop staring at you when you talk and that tick him off. “Arrgg…..” JJ grown as he rubbed his cute cheeks in frustration. “That’s it I can’t……” Jay walks towards you two. “Love……”. LOVE? you thought. Jay never calls you his love. That’s for grownups you two think. “Love I feel…..sad….come with me let’s talk….” Jay acted sad. “ of course baby! Come on tell me everything!” You said in worry. Jay smirks at the boy triumphantly.

• He smiled. He simply smiled as he saw how the other boy complimented you. He was only complimenting you nothing wrong so Jihoon stayed calmed. Then…..that boy whispered something to your ear. You step back and gave him a weird look. “No…I have a boyfriend…his…” you try to look for him but out of no where he back hugs you surprising you. “Ohhh you have a boyfriend….” The other boy said as he looked annoyed. “Yeah I’m hers and she’s mine…..so back off…” Jihoon whispered that last words clearly to the boy. Then you two walk off.

alright, i’ve tried to keep quiet because i truly believe in karma and wanted this rp to close through the admin’s own actions and not give them any opportunities to blame it on me instead. it also felt like beating a dead horse, because i was sure they’d close the rp after losing a huge proportion of their active members and the majority of their diversity. however, after seeing multiple people sharing their experiences today, they are still posting promo posts and starting their event. so yeah, here’s my experience with @thevillagerp

NOTE: i no longer have screenshots from my conversations with the admins, as i blocked them when i left the rp for the sake of my own mental health, but i did save the text in my drafts, so the messages below are copy pasted. i have not edited them in any way. They also deleted my original anonymous messages off of their blog.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: racism, very vague allusions to homophobia and transphobia

so i was a member of this roleplay for around two months. during my time there, it was startlingly obvious that white fcs were preferred and prioritised, both from the fact that they got more plots and interactions in general and from the fact that admins never promoted diversity on the main. even now, they repeatedly say they “would still love to receive some more male and non-binary apps” while ignoring that they currently have a ratio of 8 fcs of colour to 24 white fcs. their diversity rules at the time were that 1/3 of a mun’s characters had to be played by an fcoc. so people could easily just play one or two white characters.

a while ago, i sent an anonymous message to the main asking if they had considered perhaps changing this rule to be 2/3 characters instead of 1/3, since there were so few muses of colour in the roleplay (as i said before, they’ve since deleted this from their blog so i cannot provide a screenshot). they responded that they had been thinking of upping the character limit to four instead of three, with a rule that 2/4 must be played by an fcoc. i gave them the benefit of the doubt and the time to enact this change, but nothing happened.

so a few weeks later, i sent them this message on anonymous:

I was wondering if you had thought any more about the diversity rules here? I know you said before that you were considering increasing the character limit, but I noticed that hasn’t happened and I wanted to know if that was a change we’re going to see or if you would consider changing the rules in another way? I’m really disheartened by the lack of diversity in the roleplay

at the time there were 18 characters of colour out of a total of over 60. they responded (again, i’m sorry i don’t have the actual wording since they’ve deleted the messages) that they had thought about it and decided against upping the character limit, but instead would be having a weekly “poc acceptance day,” where they would only be accepting apps with fcs of colour. they also said they were doing this “now that the waitlist was mostly cleared,” which meant that the rp was mostly at capacity anyway, so they needed to look more at how to encourage their existing members to promote diversity, since there weren’t spaces open for new people to bring them in.

i responded with another anon expressing my disappointment and pointing out that they had done more to prevent having too many celebrity characters than too few muses of colour, as at the time they had a ban on celebrity muses. i wouldn’t usually suggest a ban on certain fcs, but as it was something they had done for celebrity characters, then i supposed it was a reasonable option.

they didn’t even respond to this message and instead posted on the main asking me to come off anon to discuss it. so i did, and i sent them the following dm:

i didn’t want to come off anon because i honestly feel really ostracised in this group and didn’t want to make it worse, but i don’t want to drop this issue and you aren’t comfortable addressing it publicly so here we are i guess. like i said in my previous message, i really don’t see how a “poc acceptance day” is going to make anywhere near enough of a difference. people will just wait for the opportunity to play their white characters. there are only 18 characters of colour in a roleplay with over 60 characters. that’s less than a third, which is obviously concerning. what’s even more concerning for me is that these characters are more often than not overlooked. i am often ghosted when plotting, or people don’t even reach out at all when i like plotting calls or intro posts. and then i have to watch characters like leo almost exclusively interact with white women (i’m sure that’s not the only example, but it is the first that comes to mind as he is one of the more active characters).

so this issue goes so much deeper than there just not being adequate representation in the rp. i really tried to help, i suggested making it a rule that 2/3 characters need to be poc in my original ask and you mentioned upping the character limit in response. i was worried that my concerns were being brushed aside, but i waited a while to give you the benefit of the doubt and the space to discuss the issue. so you can understand why it was really upsetting today to learn that the one thing you suggested was dropped and instead replaced with something that is barely scratching the surface of the problem. and i don’t know if it was your intention, but by saying that you were waiting for the waitlist to clear, it comes across as not wanting to receive any backlash from people who would want to join with only white characters. and even if people did want to join with faceclaims of colour, they can’t because the waitlist is cleared. like i suggested, you could change the rules so that 2 out of 3 characters must be people of colour. or, as was your proposed idea, up the character limit to four. you could also put a temporary ban on white faceclaims until the ratio evens out. as i mentioned, it’s really distressing that this was something you were willing to do for celebrity characters, but not to aid diversity.

i also just want to make it clear that these have been the only anons i’ve sent, i know you’ve been getting other ones, but those weren’t from me!!

( for context, they were receiving anons from someone else claiming that they felt left out in the rp ).

i had hoped that coming off anon would show them that this was a very real issue which was affecting their members, as well as giving them a space to discuss it privately instead of on the main. they responded with:

Hi Em, thank you for coming forward. We really, really appreciate it and we understand it’s not an easy thing to do. We also appreciate you flying the flag for diversity so strongly. We can always strive to be better, we are on the same page with you here.

Let us just explain our decision making. Firstly, just to address the waitlist, that was certainly not at all our intention when we brought it up. It was a logistical decision with 5+ applicants having already waited a week for acceptance and aware of their position on a waitlist.

When we decided against upping the character limit (and therefore the 2/4 POC character rule), we thought a POC acceptance day could be a good alternative course of action. In our eyes, this was something that would probably bring more POC characters to the group than the 2/4 rule because we knew there weren’t going to be many muns taking up an additional fourth character. This was a rule we’ve seen other groups enjoy success from so we wanted to try it out here. Plus, we think a day that explicitly highlights diversity every week would bring the message to the forefront of everyone’s minds. As we said, we’re going to monitor this over the next couple of weeks to see if it brings any improvement because we’d really like to have it as an ongoing rule.

The non-POC ban is actually a measure we’ve spoken about too and we are considering putting one in place should this fail. Thank you for raising your concerns, know that we’ve taken them very seriously and we hope that you’ll trust our judgement in trying this rule out first to see where it leads.

first of all, i don’t think i even have to mention the wording of “flying the flag for diversity.” but the real crux of the issue here is that they supposedly wanted me to come off anon to discuss the issue, but instead just explained their idea further and didn’t take anything i said on board. they didn’t even say a single word about how i told them i felt ostracised and regularly got ignored. i knew from speaking to other muns in the rp who played muses of colour (and just from looking at the dash) that they felt the same way too, but of course was only speaking from my own experience.

i thought long and hard about how to respond to this, as i was so disheartened by their unwillingness to listen to their members and the fact that they didn’t care that i felt left out. it felt like they had asked me to come off anon just so they knew who was messaging them and therefore put a target on my back, so honestly the thought of being on the dash or talking to the admins made me incredibly anxious. before i had a chance, however, they responded again with:

Hi hun, we’ve continued discussing this issue over the last couple of days and we wanted to let you know that we’ve decided to put in place a non-POC ban instead. Thank you again for holding a mirror up to the group. We do hope that this will recorrect the balance.

so i waited to see how things would play out. they posted about this new ban here and pinned the post to the top of the main:

[ IMAGE ID: a screenshot from thevillagehq of an admin update, which reads: in the interest of keeping the village a diverse space, we are currently only accepting applications for POCs. please note that any apps or reserves submitted to us for faceclaims that are not POCs will be deleted. we will lift this rule once we see fit.

thank you for your understanding and your efforts in making this group a brighter, more inclusive and diverse place for all. /END ID ]

this rule remained in place for around two weeks, during which time they made almost no effort to promote it. the above post was pinned to the main page, but that was the only mention of the ban anywhere on their page, they didn’t update the rules page or even put a note on the application page about it. during this two week period, the admins posted 10 promo posts, none of which suggested fcs or even mentioned the ban or diversity at all. the ban was then lifted suddenly when the pinned post was removed and the admins just went back to accepting apps with white fcs. the ratio had only evened out in those two weeks (from 18 out of 65 to 24/50) because of people going inactive or leaving, and there was nothing put into place to continue to promote diversity after the lift of the ban. in the three days after the ban was lifted, the admins posted over 10 promo posts, the same amount they had posted during the entirety of the ban. it was clear that they had no intention of actually making changes in their rp and had only done so because i refused to drop the issue.

again, i thought a lot about what i wanted to message them. i knew at this point that they didn’t want to make any real changes, but i still felt like i had to make it clear to them how disappointing their actions were. once again, i was messaged before i even had a chance, this time for bubbling.

as you can see in the above correspondence, i had told the admins point blank that i felt left out and ignored in the rp because of the characters i played (aubrey plaza, mj rodriguez and keiynan lonsdale fcs. all of my characters were queer and used either she/they or they/them pronouns). as a general rule, the only people who wanted to write with me and have interesting plots with me were people who played other muses of colour. the rp had a rule that you must reply to 3+ muns on every character, which i had been doing. i had only been back from my hiatus for a few days at this point and had responded to 6 different open starters the day prior. their message to me read:

Hi hun. There’s something we wanted to address to you directly. It’s been expressed to us by multiple members during these last few weeks that they have felt excluded by your character within the group, especially when it comes to the friend bubble that has formed between Mars, Bowie, Luvena, Asher and others.

While we encourage the development of friendships and trust that this isn’t intentional, we have a zero tolerance for bubble roleplaying at The Village. We are aware that our three mun activity rules have been met by all parties involved, however, bubbling is usually a little more nuanced than that and it seems it has unfortunately begun to create a bit of a divide within the group.

We have already issued individual warnings to a few people within the bubble, however with multiple members still expressing their concerns to us, we decided it would be better to address the group as a whole. We hope that by pointing this out to you, you will try and branch out to your fellow members a little more from now on - and try and be a little more inclusive when it comes to everyone else in the group.

We take such matters very seriously as admins, and while we hope it won’t have to come to this, there will be consequential steps taken should we not see any changes in your interactions in the weeks to come.

as you can imagine, i was incredibly upset to receive this message after already telling them i didn’t get plots from many of their members and they had done nothing. even people who i had previously messaged continued to only write with the same few white characters. i don’t deny that we definitely had a friendship group between our characters, but there were multiple people in that roleplay, including the admins, who only cared about ship plots or plots with the same few muns. me and other people who received the same message had all previously told the admins that people aren’t plotting with us and gotten ignored, so receiving this message made it clear that they neither cared about us nor wanted us in their rp. and so i responded as below:

yeah i literally told you i felt left out because there are multiple people only writing with white characters and you never addressed it, so this message is honestly insulting. i have reached out to almost every new member, responded to multiple open starters and have tried to plot with as many people as possible. like i told you, i am often left on read or people don’t even message me at all. if people do message me, i am usually expected to put in all of the effort and if people aren’t interested in actually developing plots with me then i am obviously not going to force my characters on them. all of my characters are queer, non binary people of colour and the harsh truth of this roleplay is that people don’t care about them. i even wrote out a whole list of 20 detailed suggested connections in an attempt to get more plots and nothing came from that either. i’ve even gotten anonymous hate saying that offering to explain my characters’ pronouns was “patronising,” which i didn’t feel like i could approach you about because, when i told you about how i’m feeling excluded, you didn’t care.

so if i only have actual plots with the people who actually care about my characters, i make no apologies. i also don’t even have threads with half of the characters you named, asher being the only one, and have literally only just come off hiatus. so please explain how i am bubbling, because this really just feels targeted at this point.

you’ve made it endlessly clear that this rp isn’t a safe space for people who want to play diverse characters. the main was practically silent while you had a ban on white faceclaims, which you never actively promoted, and then you dropped that suddenly without putting anything else in place. you also deleted my initial anonymous messages asking about diversity as if you were trying to hide that there was ever an issue. you turned anonymous messages off, so that no one can safely criticise you. because i did that off anon and ever since it has felt like there is a massive target on my back. my characters have been “accidentally” on the activity checks multiple times despite me being on hiatus (people get a notification that they were tagged even if you remove their name from the list btw). plus when i asked for an extension on my hiatus, you said that you would allow it “just this once” which now makes me feel like i can’t come to you if i’m busy. right now, for example, i am in the middle of moving house, but i’m also stressed about trying to stay active because you have made yourselves completely unapproachable.

the ratio only evened out slightly because members left. then suddenly after the ban you’re posting multiple promo posts a day??? you couldn’t get more obvious. i came to you about diversity in good faith, hoping that it was something you were unaware of, but you have made it abundantly clear that you actively do not want to promote diversity in your roleplay, we are just here to be witnesses to your ship. there are multiple members who are actually bubbling who have been brought to your attention, but nothing has been done. leo continues to only write with the same three white and white passing characters. charlotte pretty much only appears to write with leo and post a vague “message me for plots” post that wasn’t even tagged. both of you only put effort into your ship threads with each other and the occasional text threads. even with something like group events: while i’ve been here, there’s been a pride event that neither of your characters were even in new york for (an event where i was the only one reaching out and posting multiple starters, by the way); there was no event last month, and this month all you’re talking about is this housewarming party.

i’m really disheartened that it’s come to this, but i can’t be here anymore. please post unfollows for all my characters. you’ve said multiple times that we should trust you as admins, but this message shows again that i simply can’t do that. from the disregard of trigger warnings, to the way you treated being held accountable for the lack of diversity, to how you respond to people asking for hiatuses, this isn’t a safe space. even if i stayed, the target you have placed on me is making it insufferable to just write my characters in peace.

the other muns who received the same bubbling message (copy pasted btw, we all got the same one word for word) all responded with their own concerns and criticisms in responses of a similar length to mine. none of us received a reply, our unfollows were just posted the next day without any further responses from the admins. a few of the other members who had written and plotted with us chose to leave as well, which the admins wrote off as us just dragging them with us as opposed to them being able to make their own decisions and being aware of the situation (which was incredibly obvious. no promotion of a white fc ban, suddenly being active on the main once they try to stealthily drop the ban, then the majority of their muses of colour leaving???)

i haven’t paid the rp much attention since i left, as i mentioned above i blocked the main and the majority of the members just for my own mental health. but from a quick scroll through today i can see that the only change in diversity rules is that now instead of your third character having to be a poc, it is now your second. however, you still only have to have 1 character out of 3 have a fc of colour. so very little has been done, but of course i’m not surprised in the slightist.

these admins don’t want diversity in their roleplay. if you play any character who isn’t a rich, white, cishet neurotypical, please avoid it at all costs. it’s not in any way a safe environment.

JK's Birth time analysis

First and foremost, I’m just doing this to occupy my mind in something else while I go through some stuff, I will continue to use the general consensus of the community for my astrology readings, I’m just doing this for fun, remember that we as fans are in no way entitled to know JK’s exact birth time, these are just fun educated guesses on some alternative that has arisen.

Now, I must say, when I first started the astro part of my bts blog I immediately thought 1 pm for JK’s birth time, I don’t have any factual backup on this one, I’ve talked about it before, I am kind of a human tarot deck lmao things sometimes just come to me. So I started roaming around and I found that JK’s libra rising made sense to me, and it was a general consensus for his readings so I said sure let's go. You know that I endorse and adore having conversations with you guys, my craft isn’t perfect and no one else's is so it is great to hear every opinion to forge our own judgement. I do only present to you information that I can back up, which is why as much as I’d love to I won’t be taking into consideration my own personal hunch on the info I’m about to present you, although you can read it as subtext when it is in italics like this hello this is an inner thought of marinette’s.

SO the big deal: Is JK a libra rising or is JK a sagittarius rising? General consensus says 8:04 am as speculated time of birth, some others say 1-2 pm.

Either way, JK’s sect remains nocturnal so there’s not much to go from there.

When it comes to appearances, I’ll update what I said before.

Libra rising appearance:

Very youthful look that it seems like you don’t even age

Gentle smile

Charming demeanour that makes people obsessed with you

Very symmetrical features

Fit body

Contagious smile

Put together look/ clean look

Dimples

Dark hair and dark eyes

Tall

Oval/Round face

Think Harry Styles, Beyoncé, Niall, Britney Spears

Sagittarius rising appearance:

Bulky thighs

Horse like face

Big forehead

Incredibly tall or more than average tall

Gain weight easily

Not really athletic

Pretty full lips

Think Kim Kardashian, Elvis, Jennifer Lawrence, Paris Hilton

Evidently, other aspects in astrology and genetics can alter these, but it is mostly true.

Now, I am not that well versed in vedic astrology since I stopped studying it due to lack of time BUT the infamous thread that looks into the possibility of JK being a sag rising is pretty elaborate, although it does run more on intuitive processes and symbolism, which are of course, valid, and it really is up to both the analyst and the ones reading the analysis to determine the weight of it. My craft is more oriented towards intersectionality so I don’t like to go by what we are able to see about him as an axis, more like confirmation about it. Idk if it makes sense. I just don't trust seemingly scripted content that much to run my analysis based on it. Everything mentioned about JK Jyestha makes sense when looking at the content presented, and it will make even more sense once we take a look at some other non western astrology systems. Again, I am not well versed in vedic astrology so right off the bat I would fight the conversion system rather than the information presented.

Regarding that thread, some of the keywords used to conclude JK’s Jyestha are as follows:

King, Winning, Ambitious, Passionate, Skillful, Eldest, 1st, Seniority, Expertise, Sensory indulgence, Celebration, Bravery, Heroic, Dragon Slayer, Warrior, Rain, Thunder, Umbrella, Protector, Provider, Scandalous, Impulsive, Bunny, Deer, Earring, Eye.

In western astrology, a general comparison on placements would look something like this.

Sun in 8° 33' Virgo

Moon in 27° 20' Leo

Mercury in 7° 49' Virgo (r)

Venus in 16° 58' Libra

Mars in 11° 7' Scorpio

Jupiter in 14° 15' Aquarius (r)

Saturn in 19° 35' Aries (r)

Uranus in 5° 28' Aquarius (r)

Neptune in 27° 33' Capricorn (r)

Pluto in 2° 55' Sagittarius

North Node in 20° 11' Virgo (r)

Chiron in 29° 45' Libra

Ascendant in 4° 20' Libra

MC in 4° 46' Cancer

1st House starts at 4° Libra

2nd House starts at 1° Scorpio

3rd House starts at 2° Sagittarius

4th House starts at 4° Capricorn

5th House starts at 7° Aquarius

6th House starts at 7° Pisces

7th House starts at 4° Aries

8th House starts at 1° Taurus

9th House starts at 2° Gemini

10th House starts at 4° Cancer

11th House starts at 7° Leo

12th House starts at 7° Virgo

In here, the main aspect I can relate JK to is Cancer MC, MC represents your public self, as well as the success level you might experience. Cancer MC is all about taking care of others, yet it can also point towards a career in arts, especifically singing and writing, it also indicates a strong possibility of psychic abilities which have been widely discussed in JK with his readings and such all while having the main troubles of being an impatient person and sometimes getting self conscious which we have heard him say before when he refers to himself knowing how to do stuff yet he doesn’t think he’s good at any of them, or his letters to himself about having to love himself more.

Another pretty JK thing I’ve noticed is his Virgo Stellium in the 12th House, which shows struggles with identity JK has, once again, being vocal about him growing up within BTS and how that has shaped him and how he has constantly been looking for himself. They often absorb the struggles of people around them. Does anyone else remember him saying he’s okay as long as his hyungs are okay? Also, singing and dancing are very powerful manifestation tools for these people huh maybe that’s why he writes and sings love songs. This aspect also indicates him having the potential to amass a large amount of wealth, some astrologers think about this stellium as an extremely karmic one, which can be translated into the whole JK’s soulmate narrative.

When it comes to his 5th house, it indicates him being a hell of a creative person, especially in a somewhat rebellious sense which I interpret as him getting a sleeve tattoo It also talks about not being traditional in relationships which I believe has come out a few times in his tarot readings.

With Sag rising, his chart would look something like this:

Sun in 8° 45' Virgo

Moon in 29° 46' Leo

Mercury in 7° 37' Virgo (r)

In this case, his MC is in Virgo, it mainly indicates a tactful and slow success in someone’s career, these MC Virgo people are often regarded as overly responsible and as people that like to get recognised as people to whom nothing is hard enough for them to call it quits. While they openly seek perfection which ofc JK has always talked about improving himself they often love to do the stuff that others despise to do like countinc, calculating and organising.

Evidently there's no 12th House stellium, he would have a 9th House Leo stellium, which is most of the times noticeable at first glance, the moment these people open their mouths, everything is just extraordinaire, there’s a longing to be loved and to be admired in this aspect. They’re inspirational people to be around which JK is, if I remember the members saying that they get inspired when watching him make efforts. They’re also overly curious about stuff around them big doe eyes anyone?

In this case he would have a 5th House aries, meaning that there’s a need to be physically active and being creative on top of that which I mean does check out. They do tend to be openly superficial people and big-headed when they are in a successful position tho.

So okay, let’s talk native astrology, JK’s Tzolkin is Tz’i-Oc, noted by their need of freedom and less traditional relationships, they work tirelessly and have an innate ability to be successful and accumulate a lot of wealth once again, JK’s position in BTS shows up HE’s in a basic need of having a strong foundation, which he will not like to lead but more take the role of a caregiver that can easily turn into the one receiving care. Here’s the thing, there are a lot of Libra themes in his Day Sign and his Trecana Sign, both of them talking about justice, fairness, helpfulness, as well as him being a nomad which I interpret as having a libra/virgo mix that is really hard to miss Now, this is where it gets funny, His galactic tone is 4, which while it talks about balance and calmness and tranquility libra like it also is represented by a warrior, which is part of the twitter thread as one of the symbolisms to think about sag rising

Last but not least, JK’s bazi, since his contextual situation is leaning more towards it. I did a comparion and it caught my eye the next part:

One of the widely talked about symbols in the sag rising thread is the element of water being consistent with JK, and in his bazi, ¾ Na Yin, the element of water came out, however, they came out when his birth time is 08:04 am.

In his 08:04 bazi, some keywords are:

virtue

star

travel

In his 13:00 bazi, some keywords are:

monetary loss

star of arts

heavenly doctor

So really it all boils down to: we do readings for fun, craft is personal and completely valid in any form as long as we aren’t hurting anyone. We do not know his actual birth time and we actually might never know it, each astrologer is free to work with the birth time they consider the best fitting unless a specific time is given. I myself, see a libra rising fitting, perhaps if we were to trial and error it, some other might come out but honestly, these readings are a hobby and while I dedicate myself to my craft, I certainly don’t have the time that it would require to analyze each placement so I can see for myself which I find the best fitting out of 12 signs. But hey, this was a fun educational opportunity to dive into other practices.

‪hi lucy! i hope you’re good! i love the fact that finn loves taking care of his boys but i also really love it when he lets them take care of him because it shows how much he trusts and loves them and idk i wanted to ask if you could write something kinda like that? maybe finn experiencing subspace/subdrop for the first time? and leo and lo taking care of him? ‬💕

For someone who says they don't particularly enjoy writing bottom Finn, I had way too much fun writing this. Enjoy!

Floating. That was exactly how every book, blog and podcast Finn had used to research the concept of subspace had explained it. He supposed it was a cliché, but he didn't know what other word he could use to describe the lightness he felt. Words in general seemed difficult and he didn't want to try to make them any easier. Even on the few occasions he'd taken on a more submissive role before, Finn had never managed to relax enough to reach this point. If he were being completely honest, he'd thought Logan was exaggerating a bit, but right here, right now, he got it.

It had been perfect, all of it.

"Just relax, let us look after you now," Logan whispered, working his thumbs into the muscles across Finn's shoulders, massaging an oil into his skin. Leo started from his feet, travelling up Finn's legs until he was kneading his thighs and Logan had reached the base of his spine.

"Gonna fall asleep," Finn mumbled into the pillow.

Leo laughed lightly. "But we have so much fun planned, Harzy."

Finn keened as they encouraged him on to his front, Logan's hand cupping his cheek to press their lips together. Finn lifted his hand to tangle his fingers into Logan's curls and Leo gently held it back down against the bed. "Be good now, sweetheart. Don't make me tie these to the headboard."

Logan slipped off the bed, grabbing a bowl crammed with ice cubes. Finn knew what was coming, they'd talked about it already, but still the anticipation had him squirming. "Excited, Harzy?" Logan quipped, plucking out a cube. He held it high, letting it melt a little, the icy droplets landing on Finn's stomach.

"Cold, Finn gasped, wriggling way from the sensation.

Leo smoothed a hand through the mess of Finn's hair. "Is it too much?"

"No, no. Go on."

"Stay still for us then, love." Leo curled his weight along Finn's side, a less obvious sort of restraint, but it sent a thrill through Finn never the less.

"Ready?" Logan asked, fingertips poised around the cube. Finn nodded. "I need to hear you say it, mon rouge."

"Yeah," Finn said, his eyes locking with Logan's green ones. "Do it."

The ice was even colder against his nipples. He arched his back as much as he could to escape the sensation, but Logan just spread the cool liquid over his chest, dragging the ice back over each the hardened buds each time Finn caught his breath.

"Fuck." Finn squeezed his eyes shut, mouth hanging open in a long groan.

"We've only just started, Harzy," Logan smirked, passing the bowl to Leo. He caught Finn's lip between his teeth, nipping at it playfully. "Le's turn."

Immersing his hand into the icy water, Leo held Finn's gaze as he shook off droplets and wrapped his fist around Finn's cock.

The cry that left his mouth was almost feral, his body jerking in every direction, unsure whether he wanted to fuck into the friction or get as far away as possible.

With his head tipped back, Logan found the hollow of his neck easily, fingers stroking gently over the skin before mouthing a mark into it. "Was that a good scream?" Logan chuckled.

"It's..." Finn sucked in a breath. "strange."

Leo ducked his head, taking the tip in to his mouth. The wet warmth around his cock was positively tropical after the previous cold, blood rushing back so quickly it was dizzying.

"Oh." Finn tried to push up on to the palm of his hands. It was like he couldn't quite believe how good it felt without being able to see it. Logan was there, pressing him back down against the bed.

"You always want to be so involved," Logan laughed.

Sitting back on his heels, Leo traced his fingers over the freckles that painted the inside of Finn's thighs. "Still okay, sweetheart?"

They let him get away with just a nod this time. Finn wasn't sure he'd have been able to form words even if he'd had to. Leo patted his hip, and then he was jerking his cock again, hand freshly cold. It was only brief, just enough to cool him off before Leo licked a hot line up the thick vein.

Logan kissed him hard on the mouth, distracting him enough that the ice on his nipples came as a shock, the lips against his own curling into a smile. "Ready for Leo to prep you?"

The shifts between hot and cold continued. The water dripping between his thighs. Leo's tongue breaching the twitching muscles around his rim. The ice on his chest, Logan chasing the path with kisses. The lube was new too, an unexpected warmth as Leo pushed it into him.

Finn had forgotten that was still to come, a thrill going down his spine. He didn't bottom very often, the length of time it took him to relax enough for it to be enjoyable wasn't always what they wanted and more often than not, he just preferred not to. Sometimes though, giving Finn and Logan that trust was the loudest way he could let them know how much he loved them. "Yeah, ready."

"Ahha," Finn bucked, Leo's fingers finding his prostate.

"I love watching you when you're like this," Logan breathed, dragging a thumb over Finn's lips.

"It's always better than I remember," Finn said.

Logan huffed a laugh. "I beg to differ."

"Faulty plumbing. That's a role play for another day," Leo smirked, hooking his fingers in one last searching curl and pulled them out. "Can you get on your hands and knees, love? I think Tremzy wanted your mouth whilst I fuck you."

Leo added a third finger, and Logan palmed Finn's cock where it hung dark and swollen between his legs. "Like a broken faucet," Logan said, gathering some of the mess leaking from the tip and sucked it off his finger with a filthy pop. Finn whined, hips bucking against the air.

Finn was sure his muscles had been worked into jello, arms shaking under his weight. Leo tucked an arm around his waist, nestling his cock between his cheeks. "I've got you," he whispered, settling into Finn with one swift thrust. "We've got you."

"Your mouth is so fucking good," Logan gently pushed between Finn's lips as Leo pulled out, the two of them setting a steady rhythm that meant he was never empty. It wasn't fast or hard, but Finn could feel every long inch of Leo as he buried himself inside of him.

He didn't realise he was crying until Logan brushed the tear away, pausing before he slid between Finn's lips again. "Do you need us to stop?" Leo stilled.

Finn knew his blowjob wasn't great, too out of it to co-oridinate his mouth in the right way, but Logan seemed to be enjoying himself never the less, a constant babbling falling from his lips. At this point, Finn wasn't sure if he couldn't comprehend it because his brain felt like mush, or if Logan was simply speaking his native tongue.

"No, please," Finn pressed back against Leo. "I just -" he laughed, Logan's eyes widening with concern. "it's good, I promise." He got silence in response, Logan's eyes lifting to meet Leo's. They must have been convinced though, because a beat later they moved again.

The last thing Finn remembered was Logan thrusting into his fist, other hand cupped against Finn's cheek, whimpering as he grabbed the nearest item of fabric. His head tipped back in a familiar sharp intake of breath, thick white ropes of come landing on the t-shirt. Finn's t-shirt. And something about that was too much, knocking Finn over the edge he'd been teetering on.

"Hey sweetheart, you back with us?" Leo cradled Finn against his chest. They were sat back against a mountain of pillows now.

Finn hummed, slaying his arm out to find an empty space next to him. "Where's Lo?" He opened his eyes reluctantly.

"Right here," Logan said, holding a washcloth as he stepped out of the ensuite. "Let me clean you up for once." Finn squirmed, feeling the stickiness now his attention had been drawn to it. Logan was tender with the cloth as he wiped away the bulk of their activities, curling into Finn's side once he was done. "Mon amour," he sighed.

"How was it?" Leo brushed his lips over the lobe of Finn's ear.

Finn though for a moment. "Intense." He threaded his fingers between Leo's, noting how his hands looked small there. "I liked it though. A lot."

He kicked at the sheets gathered around his feet, trying to get them up. "Nap time."

Leo snorted, shaking his head and twisting his body to reach for something. Finn grumbled as the movement jostled him. "Drink first," he said, pressing a bottle into Finn's hands. "There's peanut butter cups as well, if you need food." Logan made a happy noise when a packet landed in his lap without his having to ask.

"I love you," Finn looked up at Leo, then at Logan. "Both of you."

29/36. @tmnt-event-blog

Quality time and acts of service are considered love languages, right?

There was nothing Donnie hated more than feeling unneeded. It was even worse when he felt like he needed help with something he shouldn't need help with.

Mikey willingly coming into the lab to make himself busy didn't count; the box turtle being there was more akin to having a willing lab assistant than needing an aide, but the brain fog made things hard to remember. He found himself missing details, forgetting and skipping steps, unable to focus on code. He had a whole laundry list of unfinished steps, easily thrown off schedule like a common man. The greatest and strongest part of Donnie felt like it was slowly being taken away from him, and as much as he didn't want to admit it, he had to face the facts and understand that that might be the case.

So where did that take him?

"You look like shit."

"If you're here to interrogate me, go back to bed." Donnie squinted at the mess of code he had to read through. The lines were beginning to blur together. He had forgotten where he put his old glasses.

"Kicking me out already? I barely said five words." Leo threw himself onto a rolling chair, wheeling himself toward the softshell. The back of his chair bumped into the other's with a gentle jolt. Donnie turned around, scowl on his face.

"What do you want, Nardo?"

"Can't a brother look out for his younger twin?"

Donnie froze up at that, extending his arm. Leo chuckled, extending the other. Rock, paper, scissors. Leo's paper beat Donnie's rock, and the softshell could only relent to the statement.

"What are you planning?"

"You can't sleep, I can't sleep, so I'm better off making myself useful here."

"Right... I've never seen you in my lab, even to steal something," Donnie drawled, stifling a yawn, "What makes you think I'd trust you around experimental tech?"

Leo raised his arm. The prosthetic one. He crossed his arms afterward, "You taught me how to repair this for emergencies, which I have had to do before. Come on, Dee, trust Leon on this~!"

"I remember that six out of seven of said emergencies, I was also there to berate you on your shoddy craftsmanship."

"Yah, but there was also the one time you weren't there and the arm turned out just fine!"

Had him there.

"And if I were you, I'd have built this thing to not need as many emergency repairs as it does now."

Donnie rolled his eyes in response, turning back around before sliding a motherboard over to Leo.

"The wires are burnt out. Use the wire box on the top left shelf and find the thickest one. Because you already know how to replace those wires, I won't need to redemonstrate."

"Oof, giving me the easy jobs now?"

"Just be glad you're even allowed to touch that highly volatile component."

Donnie nearly missed the amused chortle Leo made, but it was a weight off his shoulders. The rest of the night followed the same structure: Leo finished a simple task and Donnie gave him another. The slider was still his signature flavour of annoying, but it never completely got on his nerves... It was even helpful at times, having another head to remind Donnie of a certain task in an irritating but strangely non-condescending manner.

At some point, the softshell did doze off on the desk he worked on, but Leo was there. He woke up the next day in bed with more mentally-listed tasks completed than forgotten.

Jealous (Part 1) - Leo x fem!reader

request? yes/no

“You have no idea how happy i am to find a 2k12 blog! These boys deserve much more love. If it is ok, can I have reader who has a huge crush on Leo and feels jealous everytime he interacts with Karai because she can see the way he look at her? I always wondered how having a crush on blue boy would work out since he seems so much into Karai.”

a/n: Y’all really have a thing for the leader in blue, huh? ;) I got suuuuper carried away with this, sorry it’s so long!

warnings: Angst :/

Steam had been practically coming out of your ears.

You, Donnie, Mikey, and Raph were walking into Shredder’s chemical lab building, you slightly more angry than the other three (maybe besides Raph, of course).

It started when Karai had taken over Shredder’s lair with her new witchy sidekick, making it their mission to take down the man that had lied to the kunoichi her entire life. She had been betrayed and manipulated for years, and the man covered in blades was going to pay.

You watched Leo’s eyes fill with hope as the teenager had explained her mission, hoping that she would join him and his brothers as a team. But alas, Karai wanted not only revenge, but chaos while she did so. Splinter knew this wouldn’t be a good idea, he had practically begged his daughter not to go through with it, but she brushed her true father off; she was going to end Shredder no matter what she had to do.

As you crossed your arms, watching as she exited the lair, you furrowed your eyebrows, watching the blue-masked leader follow her with his eyes. You couldn’t help the scoff that escaped your lips.

“I’m going home,” you growled. “I need some sleep.”

Mikey frowned. “Hey! I thought we were going to watch Chris Bradford together!”

You looked at him sadly. “Maybe tomorrow, Mikey. I’m sorry.”

You had to go home, and once you made it to your bedroom, you were screaming into your pillow. Why did Karai have to pour all of her problems onto the team? Why couldn’t she just be the daughter that Splinter had been missing all along? Why did Leo care so much about her?

These were all questions that made you sick to your stomach, causing you to toss and turn the entire night. You went to school the next day, exhausted, and you could barely concentrate in any of your classes. After your last class, you nearly bolted out of the school; you needed a distraction. Walking to the familiar alleyway manhole, you climbed in, following the path your legs had remembered by now until the lair came into view.

“Turtles!” you called, tossing your backpack to the couch. “Someone spar with me, now.”

Mikey turned his head, wide-eyed at your demanding voice. “I think Leo’s in the dojo already.”

You nodded, walking into the dojo to see Leo stretching.

“Hey,” you greeted, “wanna spar?”

He shrugged. “Sure, why not.”

You grabbed your weaponry whilst he got his katanas ready.

“You sure you don't want to use the cardboard weapons instead?” he asked seriously. “It might be hard to go easy on you with my actual katanas.”

You rolled your eyes. “I can handle it, honor boy,” you taunted with a grin.

He wouldn’t have ever admitted it, but he loved it when you called him that. The way you said it made it so personal; it was his nickname, no one else’s. And despite the negative connotation Raph had given it, a man of honor was exactly what he strived to be, and it made his stomach erupt in butterflies when you recognized that.

You both circled the room, weapons at the ready.

He cocked an eyebrow, “you sure about that, Y/n?”

You grinned. “Give me your best shot.”

And with that, you began fighting. The sounds of blades slashing against each other and defensive grunts filled the room. You used the anger you’d been feeling, the jealousy that had filled you to the brim, to assist your adrenaline high, making you fight better than ever. He noticed your kicks and punches were stronger, wondering what was going on with you.

“Y/n, you know we’re just sparring, right?” he yelled as he guarded your throws. “I’m starting to think you should have chosen Raph to train with instead!”

You rolled your eyes, yelping as he caught you off guard and pinned you to the ground. Your chest heaved up and down, out of breath as your senses came back. You blushed at his figure on top of you, rolling out of his grasp that had loosened. Still on the floor, the two of you sat, catching your breaths. You pulled your knees to your chest.

“You’re going to help her defeat Shredder, aren’t you?” you spoke up quietly.

His eyes widened, surprised at your words. He slowly nodded.

You shook your head, clenching your jaw. “How come you always abandon us when Karai suddenly needs you for something, Leo?” you argued.

He turned to you. “She won’t be able to take him down without me. She needs our help, and I’m the only one willing, you know that,” he stated.

“I don’t trust her one bit; she’s manipulated us too many times, when will you realize that your family is more important than some girl?!”

“Karai is family!” he yelled, causing you to jump at the sudden raise of his voice.

You rested your chin on your knees, pulling them closer in attempt to comfort yourself. “Yet she’s chosen not to be apart of it,” you spoke, your voice barely a whisper.

He frowned, standing up. “This discussion is over.”

And with that, he left you in the dojo.

You sat in Donnie’s lab that night, spinning around in a wheel-y chair whilst he worked on upgrades for the van.

“I don’t get why he’s so hung up over Karai, you know? He’s practically feeding her grapes at this point,” you grumbled.

He chuckled at your comparison.

“He’s always been like this, if you remember when they first met,” he explained.

You chewed on your lip. “I know, but why?”

“Guys!” you heard a high-pitched yell, knowing it had to be Mikey. The two of you scurried out of the lab to see what the commotion was.

“Leo’s not in his room! What if he was taken?!” he yelped, his hands resting on his freckled cheeks in shock.

Raph rubbed the sleep out of his eyes whilst Donnie pulled his phone out, tapping away.

“His T-Phone is unresponsive, too,” Donnie frowned.

You sighed, feeling a pit in your stomach. “I know where he is– or who he’s with, rather.”

The three of you got in the van and headed to Shredder’s chemical lab building, your fists clenched.

Mikey looked at your angered form with a questioning look.

“Everything alright, dudette?”

You sighed. “Yes, Mikey,” you gave him a forced, reassuring smile. “Leo’s just a dumbass, is all.”

“You’ve got that right,” Raph grumbled next to you.

As the four of you entered the building, weapons at the ready, you noticed the building looked trashed– and empty.

“Aw, we missed the battle?” Mikey whined.

Donnie began peering over something, with an “uh oh”.

“We’ve gotta get out of here!” the purple-masked turtle exclaimed, pushing the three of you to the nearest exit as he followed.

It became clear as to why he was trying to escape, once the beeping got louder.

They bombed the place.

Suddenly, the four of you were blasted, your ears ringing from the loud noise. Your body had come in contact with something incredibly hard, the pain in your head taking over your conscious. Before you knew it, you were slipping into darkness, your mind clouded with the flames of the building.

Your eyes opened, seeing Splinter and Leo towering over you. You turned your head, noticing the purple-masked turtle awakening beside you. You realized they had performed their healing mantra.

Your head was spinning, and your body ached everywhere. You scanned your body, seeing cuts and bruises scattered all over your skin.

“I am so sorry,” Leo admitted, his invisible eyebrows knitted together with worry.

You sat up with a groan, your hand immediately going to your head. Leo put a hand on your back, worried that you’d fall backward. He assisted you as you carefully got up to stand. The others left, leaving the two of you alone in the dojo.

He couldn’t bear to look at you; you looked so fragile. It broke his heart that he had done this to not only his brother, but you as well.

You watched him as he stared shamefully at the floor.

“Leo,” you spoke softly, making his deep, blue eyes finally meet yours.

“You were right, Y/n,” he confessed, his voice much quieter and softer than his usual confident and clear tone. He was embarrassed and ashamed. “I shouldn’t have went behind the team’s back to help Karai.”

You furrowed your eyebrows. “Donnie and I could have died if it weren’t for Splinter,” you fought, though your voice was weak.

“I know,” he admitted. “And, I’m sorry. I wish I listened to you.”

“You never listen to anyone when it comes to Karai,” you muttered, your voice barely audible.

He frowned, crossing his arms. “Why does Karai upset you so much?”

Tears began to well in your eyes and your bottom lip began to tremble.

“You really want to know why, Leo?” your voice cracked. “I see the way you look at her, the way you push everything aside to assist her with whatever she desires; it tears me apart.”

His eyes softened and his green cheeks flushed. “I-I had no idea you felt that way, I’m sorry.”

Tears began to roll down your cheeks and you found it hard to look him in the eye. “You can’t be sorry for how you feel.”

You couldn’t handle his rejection. You left the dojo, running as fast as your sore body could take you despite the turtles calling for you in confusion. As you escaped the sewers, you put your hands on your knees, catching your breath.

Leo stood in the dojo, alone, not sure what to do.
