My Found Family
I never grew up with the luxury of family. As an orphan, my childhood was lacking to say the least, and it left me jealous of any kid with caring fathers and siblings. That's why I had to find my family. Nobody's perfect, but with a little reconditioning, I've trained them to be exactly what I was looking for.
This guy is now my father...
Tumblr media
"Breakfast is ready, boys!" I call, using my lower register like I'm supposed to, "Whoops! I mean bacon-fest!"
Guttural laughter comes from my stomach even though I don't find my joke that funny. Bad jokes like this have sort of become my personality lately. In fact, my whole life has transformed over the last couple days. A week ago, I would've never imagined myself strolling around my house in nothing but underwear and a robe! My standards for style seem to have vanished along with pretty much every other part of my old way of being.
It happened three days ago at a grocery store, when I ran into this guy in the produce section. He caught me examining avocados for ripeness and walked right up, beginning to talk like we'd known each other for years.
It was all a bit bizarre, but I found myself unable to turn away. He was explaining my life to myself. Well, not my life, but the one he wanted me to live, the one I was meant to live, and I hung on his every word. He was maybe six years younger than myself, but I was to be his new daddy. It was a role I was proud to fill.
"Here you are, son," I grin widely, unable to contain the feelings of pride I have as he walks into the room.
"Thanks, old man," he answers and grabs the plate gratefully.
For a moment, I stand there and stare. My heart beats for my boy as he tears apart the food I made for him. My paternal instincts have been working overtime lately. I can't help but love that boy with every fatherly fiber of my being.
It doesn't matter that I never wanted kids before. Previously, I'd wanted to remain a bachelor forever, but I have them now, and it couldn't feel more perfect.
With a content grin, I turn back to the sizzling bacon and think about my day. Things I used to hate were now what I looked forward to; mowing the lawn, washing the car, cleaning the gutters. I have a full day of work ahead of me to keep this house in tip top shape. Of course, I'll do it all with an ice cold beer in my hand. I never had a taste for the stuff, but my boy thinks I should grow a bit more of a gut.
I know what I say goes around here, but I could never say no to my favorite son...
I obviously have dad wrapped around my finger, but he's not the only member of this family. This next dude is my new big bro...
Tumblr media
"Fuck yeah," I grunt and sniff up the ripe stench under my arm, "Smells like a real fuckin' man!"
I toss the barbell down, finishing a new personal record on the bench press and I couldn't feel more pumped. My tank top and sweat pants are drenched with sweat, but I love bein' a nasty gym rat: at least, I do now.
A week ago I was waiting tables at this fancy restaurant, when one of the customers got to talking with me. He was sitting alone and looked kinda sad, so I tried to be friendly and I'm sure glad I did! I got a whole new family out of it. He made me quit my job and move into this sweet place. Now I'm his big brother!
Of course, like all big bro's, I'm supposed to work out in the garage all day. I was never one for weights, but I couldn't imagine my life without them anymore. I like to push my limits and get all hot and sweaty. Then I march around the house flexing and farting all over the place. It's not the most refined thing in the world, but my bro explained to me how much I don't care about hygiene and all that crap.
"Wassup, little man," I call as he saunters in.
"Nothing much," he answers, staring at my arms while I show off my biceps.
"Alright, get out of my space. I'm tryin' to work out," I snarl, acting as tough as possible, "Do I need to wrestle you again to prove my point?"
I definitely didn't used to be like this. I used to be the most polite and approachable guy in the world, always chatting random people up, but that guy's gone. My bro got rid of him and his old family. This new family is the only one I'm interested in now, even if I'm not supposed to show it. I'm supposed to be muscular, rude, and gross. It's who I am now.
"Alright, I'll leave you to it," he replies, "You can wrestle me though."
"I will," I frown, flexing even harder, "And this time, I'll win!"
Whenever we wrestle, I always end up with the urge to let him win. It sucks because I could easily beat him, and I should put him in his place, but for some reason, I just know I have to let him win. He just deserves it I guess.
I give him an intense glare and then return to my weights. These arms aren't going to pump themselves...
My big bro always makes my legs quiver, but I love seeing how cocky he can get. Of course, he'll never out wrestle me no matter how big he gets. I programmed him to let me win. Just like I programmed the breadwinner of the bunch...
Tumblr media
A short groan rumbles from my lips. For some reason, everything has been disappointing me lately: my sons, my husband, my job has all been leaving me grumpy and frustrated. Even the channels on the TV aggravate the living hell out of me. I have to fight the urge to chuck the remote across the room.
"How was your day, honey," my husband asks, walking into the room and handing me a beer.
"Great," I moan without any emotion.
Everything's been changing so fast lately, and I couldn't be more over it. I was married to my work, busting ass for years to get promotion after promotion, and I had a job I loved that paid extremely well. I couldn't be more happy, even if I was the only unmarried guy in the office. I didn't mind. I loved my bowling league and my solo trips to Vegas too much to settle down.
Then I met him, my son. Well, he wasn't my son at the time, but after talking, I quickly realized who he was and who I was to him. I'm the head of the household, the disciplinarian, the breadwinner. At least, that's who I've become.
"What's for dinner?" I grunt, peeling my eyes away from the TV.
Looking at my husband, odd feelings bubble up. I used to know him as my neighbor, a nice enough guy, but now I'm married to him. It all happened so fast. He's changed too recently, I think. The guy I knew a week ago would've never walked around all day in a robe and underwear.
His hand reaches out and holds my own, "Steak and potatoes if that's alright with you."
I grunt in agreement, turning back to the TV. My husband's presence stirs my cock to life, straining my member against my work slacks.
This is another new development.
Until now, I'd never had a gay bone in my body. In some ways, I still don't, but my son explained how I should feel about my husband. I should love him, I should be turned on by him, and I should get it on with him. He's right, I suppose.
"Hey, I could use a blow job before you get cooking," I gesture to the thick tent in my pants.
My husband pauses for a moment like he's unsure of what to do, but then it comes to him, "Of course, babe, but we need to be quiet. Both of our boys are home right now."
"Don't worry about it. If they walk in without knocking they'll get the belt," I snort as my husband gets on his knees in front of me.
"You shouldn't be so hard on-" before he can finish, I've shoved his face into my crotch.
Somehow, I know I can be rough with him, just like I can be rough with our sons. I'm the man of the house after all. Within seconds I'm grunting in pleasure while staring at the evening news broadcast. For some reason, I always find myself watching it and complaining about current events. It's just who I am now..
I grin, sneaking a peak at my two dad's going at it in the living room like the good little couple they are. My new family couldn't be more perfect, but no family is complete without the dog...
Tumblr media
"Ruff!" I bark, gleefully scampering over to the bowl of food that was just placed on the floor.
Without hesitating, I shove my face into the bowl, sending the little pellets flying everywhere. They taste like cardboard, but for some reason, I can't get enough of them! I've done nothing but drool and whine for the last hour while the real humans eat their dinner at the table.
"That's a good boy," a voice coos, and I feel fingers running through the hair on my head.
I can barely acknowledge being petted. I know I'm supposed to act like a hungry animal right now, so that's what I do.
I would've never thought I'd find myself as a house pet, but a couple days ago, this guy just walked up to me and talked me into it. It'd just been a normal day for me, working at the car garage when he became my master. I knew right there and then that I had to drop to my hands and knees and follow him home with my tongue out.
My new life has been great ever since. My masters play ball with me outside, they hose me down when I get muddy, and they snuggle with me on the couch at night. I barely even miss my old work and fiance!
"Alright, boy," one of my master's commands, "That's enough. Get in here!"
It's the mean one. The one who used to own this house, but is now just a working dad. He's always the one who hits me with a newspaper when I drink from the toilet. I don't know why, but I just feel compelled to do it!
Licking the bowl clean, I abandon it and crawl into the living room. There, the entire family is gathered around the television.
I stop by the smelly one and sneak in a few licks. I love licking him because he's always salty with sweat and smells funny. After licking his feet for too long, he kicks me away, "Leave me alone, mutt!"
"Oh don't talk to him that way," the nice one adds.
I climb on the couch and curl up beside him. His belly is always the perfect cushion for my head to rest on, and he always lets me lick his beer bottle when he's done. Within a couple minutes, I'm drifting off as his hands absently play with my hair...
...sitting with my family at night is always my favorite part. Watching TV with my two dads, brother, and dog heals the child in me that had always yearned for this. Sure, it might be easier to just go to therapy, but this is sure as hell a lot more fun!

MY DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS THREAD
Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is the first DQM game I've ever gotten to play after admiring the series since childhood. The bad news is that it leaves out exactly the three DQ monsters I love most. The good news is that everything else about it is great. I've been taking regular screenshots as I play and I am going to start adding things about it to this post, so it is going to get long. First of all here are exactly my next three favorite monsters in the franchise, which they fortunately did include, and were all available to me by almost the first area:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Mad Mollusk" or in other dq games "taileater" is great because it has a sad flabby slug face at one end and a fanged leech mouth at the other end. When it uses magic, it reveals giant eyeballs in its antennae somehow?! Love how big the "carnivorous" mouth gets in the attack animation. What a stretchy guy!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Lunatick" is just called "meda" (eye) in Japanese, I'm glad they decided it was like a parasite thing in the localization.
Tumblr media
Finally there's DROHL, a classic DQ enemy that looks like...well I'm not gonna say what it really looks like but I think it's a cool little freak unrelated to that and I think it talks exactly like Droopy dog. Oddly it's known as a "Drohl DRONE," and I believe there are other "castes" in other DQ games, but only the "drones" are in this one sadly. I've yet to find this in the wild; I got it through the breeding system!
Tumblr media
....Which is by far the most addicting thing about this game. The actual gameplay is good solid turn based RPG stuff, if a bit basic, but every monster can be bred with another monster to unlock a slew of other species. This is one of the first games in which they actually call it a "fusion" system now, I guess dropping the word "breed" from the English localization, but all other in-game dialog still calls these the 'parents' and 'offspring' and even makes jokes that they're getting married, so yeah, it's still breeding. What happens when you breed a slime with someone's dead grandpa??
Tumblr media
.....There are multiple monsters you can get from that, but one of them, and the one that makes the most sense, is Slimeshroom! This is a new DQ slime that's some fungus! What's also fun is that every monster has up to three skills, and each skill actually unlocks a ton of spells, attacks, boosts and effects as you spend skill points on them. Then when you breed two monsters, you can give the baby any three skills from the parents. Any at all! I used this to make my Slimeshroom both a healer and a fire mage in the early game. This catches you up with the same progress I talked about when I first got the game almost two months ago so here's some things that have happened since:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I bred a flying cat and a vampire chinchilla to get a.....sexy bat??
Tumblr media
I helped a fat rat - that's the name of his species - rescue his son
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I bred a people ghost with a lamp ghost to get a bag of dirt!
Tumblr media
I fought this bastard giraffe man who called an elderly wizard a "naughty boy" and put him in candy jail.
Tumblr media
"Duffer" from the Giraffe quest is also best friends with Eileen the eye demon, and when you rescue him, they become your loyal subjects! BAD NEWS: this entire game is actually a prequel to Dragon Quest 4, and the player character of this game is the villain of Dragon Quest 4. Duffer and Eileen are also in Dragon Quest 4. They die :( .......Maybe this game gives you a chance to fix that future??? I don't know.

HEYYY, firstly how are you! I wanted to ask if you could write about a teen male reader with the Batfam. He is kinda like the winter soldier if you know what I mean ( skilled fighter, metal arm..), since he lived with the Batfam he was doing a good mental recovery, but one day he goes back to winter soldier mode on the fam, and they try to get him back to normal again, idk
Thanks you bye !
Hi anon, I'm well and I hope you are doing okay too. I can do it, no worries.
Summary: (Y/N) gets back into the Winter Soldier mode.
Warnings: implications of torture, mind control, mentions of Hydra, Bruce is sad for (Y/N), some violence... And everything else that goes with Hydra and brain washing.
Tumblr media
The road to recovery is often a long one. Bruce thought of it when he first saw (Y/N), aka the Winter Soldier. The infamous one, a ghost within the intel community. Many people didn't believe that the Winter Soldier even existed. But the trail of neat and clean murders was the one thing that made Bruce think there is something more.
Of course, the way to get (Y/N) was hell. Hell being and understatement of the decade. Bruce at one thought that he was indeed chasing a Ghost, but something in his mind told him that the Winter Soldier was real. Something in his gut made him chase that ghost.
Months of chasing, fighting and hoping he would be alive by the next encounter, they finally got him. Bruce was lucky to be alive. He hugged all of his kids right then and there. (Y/N) was put into a glass box, strong enough to contain Bane.
(Y/N) refused to back down, refused to retreat. He punched the glass of the cage with his metal arm and some were worried that he would actually brake it. Bruce knew that even if he broke the glass, he had no handler anymore.
His organization has been destroyed. Everyone important was caught. Those who weren't... Well, their time was running out. They may have scattered like rats, but you can bet your ass on anything that the League would find them all. Especially since they didn't burn down their base. One hell of a mistake.
Bruce and the rest searched through the base and they found something that can only be considered as a holy grail when it comes to someone who was brainwashed.
A dark red book, bounded in leather, with all the trigger words written on those pages... Bruce knew that he has hit a jackpot. He looked through them and then has decided to burn it. They also found the footage of (Y/N)'s brainwashing,
The footage, as much as it is damning, making it very easy to persecute anyone they needed, it was also nauseating. (Y/N) was tortured with electricity, memory wiped with electricity... Worse of all, (Y/N) fighting.
It had shaken Bruce to his core and made him triple check the manor security and it has made him check on his sons 5 times that night. He couldn't sleep at all. He refused to sleep that one single evening and night.
And when he stood in front of the glass cage, (Y/N) looked utterly defeated. He was sitting down, looking down at his metal arm and his human arm. He seemed mad beyond belief that he was even caught. Bruce knew he would have to be delicate and gentle with this (Y/N). He had taken the book with him, to try and have some sort of leverage.
And to show him that he was free. (Y/N) was finally free of the mental shackles that they have put on him. Bruce took a chair and sat down near the cell, but far enough to make sure that there was some sort of space.
He couldn't have (Y/N) feel cornered.
He sat down, book in his lap. (Y/N) still looked down, but looked up after a few moments.
" They will come and get me back. " (Y/N) said and Bruce wanted to laugh.
" Hydra is gone. " Bruce simply stated and watched (Y/N)'s reaction.
Nothing. Huh.
" Lies. "
Bruce stayed calm and shook his head. " I'm afraid I'm telling you the truth. The book you see in my hands? The book with your trigger words. Do you really think they would hand it over ever so willingly? " Bruce asked, showing him the dark red leather book.
" You are officially free. " Bruce said as and watched the way (Y/N) reacted.
Bruce nearly broke when he saw hope in (Y/N)'s eyes. He never lost hope.
" I'll never be free... " (Y/N) said quietly, looking at his metal arm. Bruce saw that it was not a nice arms, made with quality. While it looked strong, it wasn't made to be comfortable. And Bruce could see the claw marks at the part where the flesh and metal met.
" That may be true. But you can start healing. You can start working through all of the trauma that they put you through. Mental scars will always be there, but I can help you. " Bruce said softly and (Y/N) was still emotionless and with hope glimmering in his eyes, there was something else too. Bruce could only decipher it as happiness, but he knew that (Y/N) would rather die than admit it.
" I'll be with you the entire way. I have a great friend who can help you unpack everything they put you through. And I can give you a better metal arm, something that wouldn't be so uncomfortable and something that reminds you off the organization. " Bruce said as he looked at (Y/N), holding the book close.
" And what about the book? "(Y/N) asked quietly and Bruce knew exactly what (Y/N) meant.
" It will be destroyed by me. I wanted to show you that the thing keeping you in their grasp is destroyed. Well, will be destroyed. " Bruce said as he put the book down on the chair before moving closer.
" And you can officially start your new life. "
" I'm not sure if I can... " (Y/N) said softly and the defenses were slowly cracking.
" I can assure you, you can. You will have to put some work into it, but it will pay off. I'll be there to help you to start. "
" But the feeling of guilt will never go away, will it? "
" After some time it will. One way is to go through therapy and work it out or you can become a hero. But that only if you want it and after you went through therapy. " Bruce said softly.
" Maybe then I'll atone for it... " (Y/N) said softly.
" One step at the time (Y/N). One step at the time. " Bruce said softly.
And that's exactly what has happened at the time. Bruce made sure to be with (Y/N) before and after the therapy sessions. He made sure (Y/N) knew he had support while he was talking to the Black Canary. And once Black Canary said he could start meeting new people, Bruce slowly started bringing his sons around.
Damian knew exactly how (Y/N) felt. Being in that environment is not easy and it's just the battle of the fittest. And one hell of a battle for your mind. You truly had to be strong enough to make sure to not completely break. Somehow, (Y/N) has kept his humanity, but he had to give a part of his soul to keep it.
Jason just talked to him about stuff and has made sure that he has access to TV shows and movies. (Y/N) needed to be connected to the outside world. And also, Jason has been bringing books for (Y/N) to read. Jason took him his favorites and often took him some classics. (Y/N) appreciated it and liked all the recommendations that Jason has brought to him. It was a nice break.
Tim has always sneaked in some snacks and the two would just talk. It was a hell of a time and since (Y/N) has started school, Tim would help with mathematics and some other subjects. (Y/N) couldn't really go to a public school or any type of school, but he still needs his high school diploma.
And Dick? Dick has been involved in making sure that (Y/N) was getting physical activity. (Y/N) was stiff in Dick's opinion and he wanted to make sure (Y/N) felt good in his body too. Dick did stretches, some tricks and considering that (Y/N) did have some knowledge about gymnastics, it was slightly easier. Not to mention, stretches were something that everyone needs.
About a year after being saved, (Y/N) has moved into the Wayne Manor. It was a nice change of scenery for (Y/N). Beautiful manor, garden, not to mention no noises... And Titus, the Great Dane being an emotional support animal for (Y/N)...
(Y/N) was incredibly happy, but had hard time showing it. Everyone knew but didn't comment on it. They were helping him get adjusted to his new life now and they were more than happy to help. And one thing that made (Y/N) happy out of his mind was the fact that he got a new metal arm. It was black, with red, blue and green accents. It was something to signalized that he was a member of the family.
Bruce was going to adopt him soon enough. Just give him some time and he will do it.
But something happened at the two month mark. Something made him reverse back into the Winter Soldier mode. Bruce was certain that they wiped the triggers from his mind. Not to mention, the boys remembered the trigger words, just in case something like this happened and that they could be careful.
But something must have snapped inside of (Y/N). The boys were careful, but something must have gone awry. Something.
Jason and Dick were the first ones to see it and were the first ones to see it and the brunt end of it. Jason was hurled out the window, while Dick was thrown at the wall like a rag doll. The commotion woke Tim up and Damian was curious as to what was going on.
They were also thrown around the room.
" (Y/N), you are not a Winter Soldier, relax! " Jason said as he made his way through the window, grunting at the pain.
" Please, (Y/N) this is not you! " Dick yelled as he gripped his sides, huffing and panting.
(Y/N), seemingly didn't hear anything and nothing was reaching him. The cold and murderous look in his eyes was more than enough to tell them that they had to subdue him.
Somehow.
Damian jumped on (Y/N)'s shoulders, trying to take his metal arm off. Once they get that off, they are going to be fine. They hope at least.
" (Y/N) come on! Fight it! " Damian raised his voice, trying to make (Y/N) see his senses. (Y/N) didn't listen and threw himself into the wall, back first to throw Damian off and then he threw Damian into the shelves, making him groan in pain.
Bruce walked in from the outside and froze in shock. His adopted sons in various stages of pain and (Y/N) in the Winter Soldier mode. Bruce stayed calm as he glanced over his sons.
They were alive and breathing. That's the important thing right now.
" (Y/N) listen to me. " Bruce said softly as he moved closer, quickly checking on his sons, who were all softly confirming that they were good.
" Look at me. Remember me. It's Bruce. You are safe. The Winter Soldier doesn't control you, you control him. " Bruce said, raising his hands in the air, trying to make sure that he didn't look like threatening.
" You control him, remember that. " Bruce said as he quickly checked on Jason.
(Y/N) looked like he was confused and shook his head. Bruce watched in silence as (Y/N) was getting his bearings together. And once he saw tears falling down his cheeks, he swooped in and hugged his son.
(Y/N) wept as Bruce embraced him and everyone, including Alfred, brought him into a hug. It was a tight hug and Bruce refused to let (Y/N) shatter. And (Y/N) felt safe Bruce's embrace, but by God, guilt was eating him alive.
Apologies were falling from his lips and everyone assured him that it wasn't his fault. It really wasn't his fault.

Enemies // M. Sturniolo x Reader.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
SYNOPSIS: You and Matt are archenemies, he constantly harasses you at school. But one day something slips out of his hands.
WARNINGS: violence, enemies-lovers, insults, attacks, bullying, among others.
NOTES: My first language is not English, so if you find any grammatical errors you already know why :)
MASTERLIST!!
Tumblr media
You found yourself pressing that pencil tightly against the table. You had so much anger inside, You needed him to shut his damn mouth once and for all.
All he does is be a stupid rich nerd. As if that were a big deal, He's just a son of a bitch.
"Hey" he shouts at you. "Don't they teach low-income people not to scratch school tables?"
He had this stupid arrogant expression on his face. You wanted so badly to kick him in the face until you disfigured his face and eliminated that damn expression.
"I guess they didn't teach you that, Because your parents had to share ten new pencils, true?"
The class ended and we were grateful that it was like this. You couldn't stand his presence more than necessary. You grab all your things and leave the room.
Why so much hate towards Matt Sturniolo?
In addition to the aforementioned, he was a fucking idiot. He thinks it's all about him, Never in history have you seen a fucking nerd be the popular kid who puts everyone down, Since when is this like this?
He harassed you, like bullying. But that's already in the past, you wouldn't let him abuse you anymore.
You were walking at a fast pace through the hallways, eager to leave damn school. But out of nowhere something hits you from your left and you stumble.
A door opens with the weight of your body and you are dragged inside, the door closes and you find yourself trapped with Sturniolo.
"Didn't you have enough? Does your lab rat girlfriend not have enough fun for you?"
Mention that standing up, You discover that are in reduced storage.
"From time to time you have to take care of pets."
"I'm not a pet."
"If he throws a branch at you... Would you go after her?" He just implied that you were a bitch.
"What did you say?"
"What you heard."
"I'm sorry, but I don't listen to Nerds" you push Matt's chest with your hands, causing his back to hit the door.
"Well, I want to clarify that I value your option as much as what a white pencil writes."
"Your parents will have all the money in the world, Matt..." I smile proudly. "But you have poor tastes."
Low blow for the new toy Matt had gotten in recent months, It was a new foreign girl, I was almost as stupid as Matt, a complete nerd who thinks she's big just for being the new one at sucking Matt's cock.
"Hey, I'm sorry sweet peach, It's not that you don't make me bigger, but if you were in a coma I would disconnect you to charge my third phone" stands firm. "You should worry less about me and more about your eyebrows being even."
"Fuck you Sturniolo!" you tear off the stupid glasses that adorned his damn blue eyes, the parts and you throw it to the ground to step on it.
"Oh no, you just destroyed my glasses 78" use a fake sad tone. "Come on, you still have to destroy 22, but don't worry" smile. "I can buy another 22 more."
"You're so stupid, What the fuck are you looking for?"
"I want to see you suffer like the bitch you are, that you kneel for me and beg."
"Tell your Spanish girlfriend to suck your cock well."
"You're not understanding me, not even if you are the last woman in the point I would let you suck my cock."
"It's not something that fascinates me, Now get out of the fucking door once and for all."
You pushed him and before you can open the door he catches you, His face was so close to yours, Their breaths mixed with each other.
"fuck you..."
"fuck me."
Matt's lips catch yours, it was so painful, His teeth spared your lower lip and you pushed him away from you with both hands.
"Fuck you, you idiot!"
You open the door and leave, bringing your hand to your lips, I was bleeding like shit.
"Shit."
What the hell was all that?
Tumblr media

Being jealous of their child
Fandom: Bungou Stray Dogs
Pairings: Nikolai, Dazai, Chuuya, Fyodor, Ranpo X Fem!Reader
Genre: Fluff, Humour, Comfort
Format: Drabble
Warnings: Shitty parenting (like, for real), bsd men/reader being childish af
Word Count: 2.7K
A/n: As you know I'm a sucker for fluffy romantic shit so-
Btw C/N stands for Child's Name
Tumblr media
They're the one who gets jealous
↳Nikolai
From the moment you announced your pregnancy to him, Nikolai knew his life was about to turn into a horrifying nightmare. How the baby was going to have his share of attention from you, how your love was going to be divided between him and the baby; it was definitely an unpleasant event.
But things got a little better when the baby was born.
When the small, whiney creature was placed into his arms, he immediately stopped crying and his tiny lips curled up into a open mouth smile, making his teethless gums visible; like he could recognize his father's aura. Nikolai pouted at the sight.
That stupid baby.
That stupid adorable baby.
His baby.
Suddenly things weren't that bad anymore, because his mind started wandering around the imagination of him and his son, running away from angry Sigma as they held each others hand and giggled. They could annoy Dos-kun together, they could play pranks on people and laugh at their stupid faces when they realized what was happening. His son looked just like him, and no one could resist those big glassy golden eyes of his.
He could teach his little Dove how to fly, alongside him.
At that moment Nikolai suddenly felt butterflies flying in his stomach, but he forget an important point;
that his son took after him and he, was a jerk.
"Mommyyyyyyy! Dad ate all the cookies again!"
The words of your son made you look up to your husband who was sitting on the couch watching TV, and raise your voice a bit.
"Nikolai! Again? How many times have I told you not to eat the cookies I bake for C/N?"
Nikolai stared at your sons innocent face for a while, before looking back to you and pout. "Why not?" "Because you eat them all at once and I have to get my ass kicked making them again!"
C/N stood behind you as he gazed at his father. He always looked so innocent, so pure, so angelic; but not with that evil smile on his face; The evil smile that you've never seen, because he doesn't plan on showing you.
The little beast was watching him closely to rat him out.
Nikolai slowly sank into the couch as an idea popped into his mind. If that little beast could play dirty, then why wouldn't he show him a little bit of what he's actually capable of?"
"It's just that... You know what? Never mind" "What? What is it?"
You stared at your husband who was fighting back a smile with curiosity, taking a few steps to approach him.
"What is it baby? You know you can tell me anything" You said while sitting next to him, tucking his hair behind his ear. Nikolai sighed at your motion, and tried to avoid your gaze as he started talking.
"It's just that... I've been feeling a little left out lately, and... Ever since C/N was born... You haven't given me any attention. It just feels like... that... you don't love me anymore" "What? That's not true, baby! I love you both equally!" "Oh really? Then how come you never bake any cookies for me? They were used to be all mine! And what happened to our date nights? Hm? All gone when the baby came into our lives!"
You slowly became sad at his words. He was right. Things changed so much since your baby was born, and they weren't all good changes. Maybe you were focusing on your son a bit too much, to the point that you forgot about the love of your life. How unforgivable.
"Kolya... I'm so sorry... I guess I didn't realize how hard things must have been on you... But I promise I make up for it! I love you more than anything in the world after all. I-"
"More than him?" Nikolai looked directly into your eyes that got widened from his question. "What?" "I said, do you love me more than C/N or not?" "I... Well I can't choose-" "Yes or No, Y/N?"
You paused for a few second, before taking a glance at your son from the corner of your eyes and getting closer to your partner, Whispering in a really quiet tone. "Yes... Of course I love you more than him. You're my other half, after all"
He knew you didn't mean it. He found out about it the day you refused to have an abortion and decided to keep the baby, but this was enough for him; enough to teach his brat of a son a lesson.
"Good" Nikolai smiled as he used to do back when you first met, and opened his arms for you. "Now, a hug would be a good start to make up, hmm?"
"Sure, baby; sure" You slowly leaned to his embrace, missing the sight of him taking his tongue out and show the middle finger to your son, who was raising his fists to threaten him that he'll get back at him for this.
↳Dazai
"I want to marry you when I grow up, mom!"
C/N slowly hugged you and placed a small kiss on your belly, since it was the only place his lips could reach without help. You chuckled while running your fingers through his hair, smiling at your son which was literally the smallest version of your dearest husband.
"But baby! What are we going to do about your father then? Daddy will be sad if you take his wifey away from him. Don't you love your daddy?"
C/N's face turned sad a bit as he thought about his father being away from you. The little one was aware of how deeply his dad was in love with his mom, how he always wrapped his arms around her, trapping her in a long hug the minute he got home. Dad was crazy about mom, always had to be touching her in some way, always kissed her forehead gently before staring at her with his love struck eyes... it was the reason why he wanted to marry his mom after all;
His cute little mind was expecting a life like this in the future, marrying someone he was head over heals for and form a happy family with her.
"I... I love daddy but... I love you more! Besides, daddy can come to our wedding if he wants to!"
"Oh really?!"
the sudden appearance of your husband made you both draw back in shock, and turn to the door just to see him peeking through the door with a not exactly delighted expression.
"D-Dad? How long how you been standing there?"
"Long enough to witness this brutal act of betrayal!" He said dramatically as he always did, slowly walking toward you to place his hand on your waist. You rolled your eyes at him and subconsciously sank into his warmth more, making him smile a bit harder.
"Now now, C/N; Do you think you have a chance with my Belladonna?"
The boy looked over how your figure was sticking to Dazai's as if he was your savior, and a small sulk appeared on his face. "Why not? I'm more handsome than you are!"
"HUH!"
Dazai gave him a challenging gaze while he tightened his grip on your waist, smirking at his kid knowing he was going to end up crying in his bedroom.
"Then let me make it clear for you"
His confident tune made you shoot him a suspicious glance and protest to him arguing with his own child, but your voice was immediately cut off by your own shock from being lifted up into the air.
"OSAMU WHAT ARE YOU-"
"This is my Belladonna! You see her? She's my wife! My one and only love in this cruel world! I'll do anything for her! I'll protect her from anything! And I'll never let anything come between me and her! Not even you, you little brat!"
It was a matter of time before your sons shocked face burst out into gloom "Waaaaaaa daddy is so mean I hate you!"
He covered his face with his tiny hands while running off to his bedroom, slamming the door behind himself as his sobbing became louder.
You raised your eyebrows at your stupidly handsome husband.
"Happy now?"
Not that he needed to say anything though; the answer was written all over his gorgeous face. "Oh Yeah, Definitely"
↳Ranpo
Your red nails looked so majestic running around in those dark brown hair like that, slowly massaging the skin as you smiled down at, well, someone who was not him.
Ranpo sulked as his sharp gaze targeted you and C/N, who had his head laid on your lap while listening to your easy riddles that he could answer in a blink of an eye.
"So, another one. There are two doors. Behind one of them is a lion who hasn't eaten anything in two weeks, and behind the other one is a lab full of poisonous gas. If you had to open one, which would be your choice?"
"If I answer that correctly, would you give me more ice cream as reward?"
"Of course! My clever boy deserves all the sweets in the world!"
"Yay!" C/N smiled as he looked at you with excitement. "Then, I would open the door with a lion behind it, cause the lion is dead after being starved for two weeks!" "That's right! Mwah* You're my little detective! I'm so proud of you baby!" "Then can you add some cookies to the reward too?" "Sure! If you do all your homework" "Ok then!"
C/N got up and ran to his room to finish his math homework. You sighed, letting your head rest on the wall behind you, when you suddenly felt something on your lap.
"Ranpo? What are you doing?" You watched him with surprise as he tried to avoid your gaze by tilting his head to the other side.
"Ask me" "What?" "Ask me to solve riddles for you too!"
His flushed cheeks and whiney tune finally hit you. Oh! So your thirty year old husband was being jealous of his own son! How... expected of him.
"So you want more ice cream as well?" You decided to play dumb as you seized the opportunity to tease him a little bit, but he saw through you, as always. "No! I want you to praise me like you praise C/N! I can solve harder riddles than him! I'm the best detective in the world! not him!"
You wished you could say his nagging and childish behavior made you question your life choices, but unfortunately, those were actually the reasons why you fell for this adorable man in the first place.
"Fine baby, you're the best the detective in the whole world" You slowly placed a kiss on his forehead, slowly massaging his temple to make him blush even harder.
"Even better than him?" "Even better than him"
Ranpo let out a "Hmph" sound before looking back to you, and pouting at your satisfied expression.
"Y/N?" "What is it baby?" "I still want more cookies and Ice cream as reward, and they have to be more than his share"
You're the one who gets jealous.
↳Fyodor
This is wrong.
This is stupid.
This is childish.
This is illogical.
But this is still how you feel.
You're jealous of how your daughter is all curled up in his lap and he's so cool about it like it's nothing. Why isn't he shooing her away? Why? Then why is he always rejecting you whenever you get clingy while he is working?
You didn't want him to reject her. You just...
Felt left out.
"Look, daddy! It's me and you!" C/N chuckled as she held the paper up so her father could see it, but it was a bit too high and literally three centimeters away from his face.
"Oh, it's really pretty sweetheart" He said as he took the paper from her tiny hands, while caressing her pigtails with his other hand. The drawing was messy, but its cuteness could definitely make up for it. However, There was something missing; an important thing.
"Where's your mom then? You didn't draw her" He replied, slowly tilting his head to the front to meet his child's purple eyes that took after his. Her cute pigtails were kinda getting in the way of his vision, but they were too cute to shake off.
"Oh? I drew mommy earlier, But she was still caught up with housework so she told me to leave her alone until she's done. She promised she'll come see it later!"
Fyodor raised his head to look at you, but was met with an empty sofa instead. You were here a while ago, where did you suddenly went off?
"Darling, wait here. I'll go check up on your mom. Don't touch anything before I come back, ok?"
"Ok!"
Fyodor didn't see you leaving, but he had no trouble guessing where you were.
He found you in your shared bedroom, your coiled figure on the bed as you were hiding under the blanket. The sound of those familiar footsteps made you cautions, but you weren't planning on greeting him as you used to do.
Sure, housework.
"Myshka?"
Silence.
"Honey?"
Still silence.
He remained still, making you wonder if he was planning on something which was rather expected of him;
but the unexpected thing was how his arms suddenly wrapped around you as he crawled under the blanket.
"Hm! So, she's actually sleep" He whispered next to your ear, smiling softly while his thumb gently caressed your cheeks that were slightly red from... the warmness of the room? You wished he would think that way.
"Too bad... I wish she could join us in the living room"
The smile you were struggling to fight back finally beat you as it appeared on your face, but you were still not going to give in.
"Dear, may I say you're pressing your eyes a little too hard for someone who's actually sleep?" "No you may not, and I am sleep you're just being paranoid" "Absolutely! How can I question it when you're telling me yourself?" He teased, pulling you closer to plant a delicate kiss on your forehead, which was his one last move to surrender you; and your open eyes was proof that he succeeded.
"Hmph! You waked me up" You pouted, sinking into his embrace. He's chin was on the top of your head, fingers going through your silky hair as he inhaled the delightful aroma of your chocolate scented shampoo.
"My apologies, dear; what would you suggest to make up for it?" "Cuddles...? If... if you have time...? I mean, you looked like you have plenty a while ago!" Your sullen voice made him chuckle and press you in his arms a bit harder. "Of course. I always have time for you, wifey~" "Fedya!"
He knew how to make you feel butterflies in your stomach, he definitely did.
↳Chuuya
"So, which one of us do you like the most? Me or her?" You looked at your husband as you raised your eyebrows, daring him to choose the other option on the table, which was your daughter who was also standing next to you, with the same pose.
"Uh... I love you both equally?" He smiled thinking he just saved himself, but your dissatisfied expressions made it clear that this was not over yet. "That's not true! You have to pick one!" "Yes daddy! Tell mommy that you like me more than her!"
The little one held the bottom of his coat as he looked at him with puppy eyes, trying to manipulate him into choosing her; but the thing was that your sharp gaze was more powerful than those bluebell eyes of hers.
"I can't choose between you! You're both my girls!" "That's it, I'm sleeping in the guest room" "NO WAIT-"
Chuuya suddenly shifted you up with one hand as he did the same to C/N, pulling both of you back onto his lap. The cocky smirk on his face was more visible than usual, but you couldn't blame him because you were also shocked from how he was able to do such things without wasting any energy.
That handsome bastard.
"See? I have enough strength to hold both of you in my arms, and my love is no different~" He smiled, placing a kiss on C/N's cheek to prove his point. "There's enough love for the both of you. You're my favorite people in the whole world, ok? There's no need to fight over this! I'm all yours"
You sighed, picking his hat up to pull his ponytail.
"That was nice, but..." "Owww!" "Still not the right answer" "Damn it!"
Reblogs are wildly appreciated :)

is there a reason why you made the Lord Father Rat Bastard (arthur) so devilishly handsome? I want to hate him with all of my heart but I just can't
sighhh I know I say that he isn't attractive in the conventional way, but oh man hear me out. He has this air of confidence around him that makes him so very punchable,,,,, but oh so very attractive (to certain fucked up people) to some. Most of the time the same people who would personally drown him in a shallow river, are the ones who would get down and dirty with him.
That being said, he isn't unattractive per se. The thing is, and I'm sorry in advance, that he is fucking surrounded by conventionally and relatively handsome lads. Think of his dumb, huge, himbo firstborn son. Definitely more of a looker than the mighty Lord Kirkland himself. Then we got my sad and nasty pretty boy Matt. In my hc he is as pretty and gorgeous as he is sad and anxiety ridden...
Also there is Francis who, yes, is attractive but with whom I have a personal issue with so fuck him. He owes me money.

I have like. Two versions of Damian Wayne in my head. I think it's a consequence of getting to know and love him via Morrison's run on him and then wanting to know more, doing research into his mother's side, and being horrified by how racist the retcons made were. It didn't really change how much I enjoy Damian in any significant way, because I liked him for his dynamic with the batfamily and how entertaining he is as Robin. It's just that when it comes to anything deeper than that, about what motivates him, what he internalized growing up, the impact his childhood abuse had on him, anything to do with Ras or Talia really... A lot of writers fail so badly at making it compelling and instead just make me cringe and want them never to touch the al Ghuls again. And so we end up with two Damians:
Damian Wayne aka the Damian I love: Most easily described as an in-character, well written Damian with a solid backstory. Robin Son of Batman and his Robin run both pull this off pretty well. They don't downplay the horror of his childhood but they don't cross over into cartoonish territory either, and they allow Damian to have complicated thoughts and feelings about what he did and what was done to him. You can see how his abuse shaped him without it being shoved hamfistedly down your throat, and I don't come away thinking "I have to ignore all of this no matter how important it is to his character because logically Ras and/or Talia would not fucking do that". Also he's hilarious and makes me root for him whether he's insulting his enemies or electrocuting Jason or dying for the fifth/sixth time. Like that's my son and I can write a million words on his mentality and how it's changed and his opinions on his parental figures and his character development and how he'd interact with x or y character and-
And the second Damian, aka the Woobie Damian. The one you get where hack writers want to give him a sad backstory to justify how Edgy and Badass and Damaged he is and write the most cartoonishly over the top evil Ras and Talia possible. Most recent example I can think of is Tom King saying Ras locked Damian in a box with no water for a week because he didn't tie his shoelaces right. Or Morrison's Talia murdering her own son. Or how SuperSons wrote Talia. And look, it's not that I won't accept horribly, ridiculously evil villains. My favourite character's dad abused her in more extreme ways than even the worst al Ghul writer could come up with. It's that these are characters with already established personalities and traits. Unless they are being mind controlled they would not act like that and do these things. Just like how Bruce Wayne wouldn't lock Dick in a cave and feed him rats. There are ways you can show the impact of growing up in a cult and raised by an evil grandfather and being told repeatedly that you are destined to lead them all into a better world and trained in the art of killing a man. And these writers fail miserably at pulling any of that off. It's as shallow and boring as "You know why I'm mean to you all the time? Because my family taught me love is a weakness. I said mean things to you and stabbed you but my grandfather used to beat me for showing kindness to animals. Don't you feel sorry for me now?"
It sucks. I hate it. Anything with that Damian in it, I automatically filter out of my personal canon. The only way I can think of making it good is if it's like the "Slice the Baby Saturday" meme, where Damian is just bullshitting to see how much he can get away with and deliberately testing his family with stereotypes. But unfortunately those writers are dead serious about Ras making Damian climb up a whole mountain with no safety gear even if he falls and breaks his arm or dies. Because that is definitely something you would do with your one and only heir. They're literally two minutes away from saying Ras gave Damian a puppy and then told Talia to kill it in front of him.
So basically when I say that I love Damian and he's my favourite male Robin, know that woobie Damian is not a part of this conversation. Real Damian I would kill for. A writer puts woobie Damian in front of me and says his mom stabbed him I say let him bleed out so I won't have to endure comics about him anymore.

The age-related question about Splinter kinda made me sad to think the boys could potentially live upto 150-200 while Splinter would most likely pass away at their late 20's/early 30's ☹️. Though, it would be bittersweet if before that any of the boys got a girlfriend and by then Splinter would be so loose about it even if their GF was a psychopath or she had a loose screw in her head because Splinter wants to at least see his 1st grandkid before passing away of old age regardless of what his other sons say about it
There isn't a question here, so I'm not sure how to respond. But since we're on the subject of Splinter, I'd like to share my fan theory that the further Splinter is removed from Hamato Yoshi, the worse ninjas his turtles are. (And also the less sense their rivalry with Shredder makes.) So the best ninjas in the TMNT universes are the ones where Hamato Yoshi--a ninja master--is Splinter. This gives the turtles a direct pipeline to a master teacher and would thus have the most to teach them. This includes the 80's cartoon turtles, 2012, IDW and Rise. Having access to a master increases the turtle's chances of becoming a master themselves at a younger age. (Rise might be the exception, as we saw that he didn't really get serious about teaching his kids until they were teenagers, so they would most likely take a little longer to master their craft. But then again, Rise has the most terrifying villains and thus forced the boys to adapt or die.) 2003 turtles are a special case. Splinter was not Hamato Yoshi, but we find in the series that Splinter still had access to Yoshi's spirit and his knowledge to pass on to his students. But even then, when Leonardo surpassed Splinter's teachings, he had to then send Leo out to find a new master- The Ancient One- to continue his training.
Next would be the 90's turtles where Splinter was also Yoshi's pet rat, but seemed to pick up a LOT in both the fighting style and the philosophy of ninjitsu.
Lower on the totem pole would be the Bayverse turtles, where Splinter taught them from a book he found. And I would argue that they're not necessarily good ninjas. They are passable ninjas. They're just so fucking huge it's very difficult for anyone to beat them. And despite their strength, they still barely won against shredder because they had the muscle, but not the skills. (And Splinter's face off with Shredder in the lair made no sense because they had never met each other before.)
Coming in last would be Mutant Mayhem turtles, who learned martial arts from watching movies. I think the introduction of the Shredder could give these kids a wake up call to how little they know about ninjitsu--if the writers had any sense of self awareness of the origin they gave this series. It will be interesting to see exactly how Shredder relates to everything that happens in this universe.

Literally new lore crescent is fine—
Also, Crescent trauma is overlooked- like damn I just realized 💀
The throne was never for anyone
"Why don't you come back and be the king." Said Nightmare.
Crescent look at his father, he doesn't show a hint of surprise nor resentment. Just patience.
"Father, how about you take a sip of the tea first." said Crescent as he poured the green tea to Nightmare's cup.
Yes, Nightmare in fact is visiting the church in light kingdom. He don't know where Crescent currently live now, Crescent is his son and he knows him well but at the same time, he don't.
"I am getting old and you're my only heir." Said Nightmare.
"Hmm? You finally realized that you're old? I'm glad." He smiles. "But Father, Merciless is also the heir so why don't you make—"
"no."
It was a simple no coming from Nightmare. Crescent nodded and poured another glass of tea for his father.
Crescent slightly laughed and put down the teapot.
"Father, you really should've think twice before killing Angst." Crescent show a sad expression on his face, "you really should've try to be a better father to me, I might rethinking my decision and become the king... But it's too late."
"... I apologize for what everything I've done to you." Nightmare slightly bow his head.
Crescent is not surprised... He honestly see this coming, he still believes everyone can change if they just try but why Crescent feels sad about his apology?
"Do you remember what you done to me? Spill it out to me and I will consider to be the king." Said Crescent.
"...."
But there was only silence... Nightmare can't even name what he did to Crescent. He don't care and still hurt him, he forget what he had done to Crescent to think he himself is a good person...
"Hmm... I remember you were choking me, starved me because I couldn't read, accused me for something and then locked me out from the castle." Crescent smiles gently as he said those things...
It's rather terrifying for someone to be this calm when they spoke about their trauma.
"You also blamed me for Angst's death and my mother's miscarriage but everything was because of you, right?" He chuckles. "Say something Father, did you remember when you threw Angst corpse into the basement and curse for rats to eat him? Do you remember when you called me 'Adelle'?"
"...."
Nightmare couldn't say anything. He remembers and he never want to admit it.
".... I forgave you for your doings, Father." Crescent got up from his seat and pat his father shoulder. "But you never want me in your life, wouldn't it be better if you pretend you never had a son..?" he sighed and smile faintly. "I hope you will never come to be again, Father. Farewell.."
Honestly, in E.L.A Crescent was the scapegoat for Alphonse (cor. nightmare). Thing Nightmare do, he'll blame it to Crescent, leaving the present situation where Killer, Merciless and even the people in darkness kingdom despises him

OKAY IM GONNA TALK ABOUT TMNT MM NOW
WARNING FOR SPOILERS BELOW THE CUT!!! THIS IS A RAMBLE POST, I AINT TIPTOEING AROUND IT!!!
Also, probably gonna start making # for post types. I feel like I reblog so much stuff that it's hard to find my actual content-
♠️ - ♣️ - ♥️ - ♦️
Starting off the bat, everyone who said Rise lovers were gonna love MM were absolutely correct. I adored this movie with every fiber of my being and I really think it could bring new people into the TMNT fandom just as ROTTMNT did.
While I will always be sad that Rise did not get the merch it deserved, I am over the moon that MM is getting it. The toys I've seen and merch I've gotten are already extraordinary. For the most part they are very very well made and most of it doesn't look like they've seen their entire family be brutally ripped limb from limb.
But moving away from my opinions about merch which is a whole other bag of worms being the physical item lover I am. THE MOVIE WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!
The storyline, the characters, the voice acting, the line delivery, the writing, the comedy, and ofc most of all
THE ART!! OMG THE ART!!! I LOVED EVERY SINGLE BIT!!! I see so much dragging on the art of this movie because it's ugly BUT THATS THE WHOLE POINT!!! It's meant to be messy, asymmetrical, even uncomfortable at times. Every character is so vastly different from the last, including every single background character. Some of my favorite overall designs were Splinter, April, Stockman, Superfly, Mondo Gecko, and even that fuckin BEAST Superfly turned into at the end.
This was the first iteration I watched where Splinter started out as a rat, being only into the more modern media, I had no idea that he was originally a pet. I could go on and on about MM Splinter and that is what I am going to do. I LOVED HIM. SO MUCH. He was such a dad, and an absolute badass when he wanted to be. Kicking ass to save his sons and just worried out of his mind about them. Despite his distain for humans, he was willing to take their help when it was offered. Instead of reprimanding his sons right then and there, he'd give them a hug and make sure they were safe beforehand. And when he saved them from getting their blood taken (I'm not calling it milking, please don't make me omg- /lh), he was like "I told you so!" but not in like.. a toxic way?? I never thought Splinter would end up as my favorite of any iteration, yet... here we are.
But y'all probably aren't all that interested in my gushing about Splinter yeah? Let's talk about the turtles, going from my favorite to least favorite (not to say I don't absolutely love them all, I just like some more than others.)
Raphael and Donnie are tied, but I'll start with just Raph. Raphael very much reminded me of when I was younger. Down to the struggled with volume & um... well, anger issues. Deep down, he loves and cares about his brothers, but he wants to branch out and meet new people. It's not that he doesn't want them to be there when he dies, it's that he wants to know other people outside of them. He loves them, but it's only natural to not want to ONLY have them.
Donatello was a silly guy, lots of playful jabs at his brothers and I just loved him. Also, the guy can DRIVE. Technically, being old enough, most places I know you can get a learners permit, so he probably realistically could drive. Despite complaining about having a "giant stick" much like 2012 Donnie, I found myself less annoyed by his complaints. Maybe I'm bias? Who knows. Point is, I loved him.
Leonardo, like Raph, was extremely relatable. With his upbringing and having a very anxious father, it makes sense to have such chronic anxiety. I swear, sometimes I feel like a mix between MM Leo and MM Raph. While ofc, I wasn't a fan of the little crush on April, it's not unrealistic. This is the first girl they've met and he has dreams of getting a girlfriend, obviously a 15 year old like that is gonna fall head over heels for the first girl he sees. Hell, when I first found out girls could like girls I honestly wasn't much different. (Ofc, I'm not a girl anymore, but that's besides the point here). But April shutting him down at prom was a relief, I'm hoping it just stays as a little puppy crush. It was handled SO much better than 2012 ever did, and I'm standing by that.
Now Michelangelo. Mikey was the SWEETEST OMG. Him and Mondo were an adorable duo and I'm hoping in future content we get more of them. Also, what is with Mikey and almost getting hit with cars in this film? I think the mans needs to keep away from the streets because he's like the critters down here in Kansas, very bad luck with cars. Only reason he's probably my least fav here is because I guess I don't have much to say about him, like, specifically?
Anyways. That's a lot of rambling, someone please talk to me about MM.

It's very hard being a snape fan and a marauders fan. I love Severus and I love James, Sirius, Lupin(Peter is Peter and I think it's perfectly acceptable to dislike the little rat) I love how complicated all their characters are. How they not perfect people and they both have done horrible and good things. Part of the blame is on themselves but the school and the adults in their lives certainly didn't. The stupid feud didn't either. I'm of the opinion that you can love both. That James and Severus both did change as people. What's your take on it? Also I find it rather hilarious that Lily and James best friend and person they chose to watch over their son is a lot a like.
Hi!
It's very hard being a Snape fan and a marauders fan.
I definitely think so. So much of both communities; both the snapedom and the marauders fandom is defined by a hatred of another, and though you do get some people with a middle ground; they are few and far in between. as someone who LOVES the snapedom with all my heart, a part of me wants to say that we totally are open with any opinion towards the marauders, but then again I have seen hate comments on many neutral/pro marauder posts, so that would be completely false. and ofc, the marauder's fandom is very much hostile towards any opinion that doesn't fall into their cookie cutter version of perfect(i must admit I am very much biased on that side of the fandom, so).
Personally, I like to think I fall in the middle. I've liked Snape and the potential of his character for a long time, and I like individual members of the Marauders(Sirius and Remus are my blorbos and I will die on this hill). Peter, I really don't have an opinion other than pity. James, well, I'll get into that later on in the post.
How they not perfect people and they both have done horrible and good things. Part of the blame is on themselves but the school and the adults in their lives certainly didn't.
This, a million times. I think everybody, regardless of who you like, can agree that the prominent characters from Marauder's era were all set up to fail. James grew up around yes men, with parents who spoiled him and friends and teachers who adored him too much to nip his arrogance in the bud. Sirius grew up in an unstable home, withstanding abuse and no helpful assistance for his issues(again, the yes men problem). Remus was literally assaulted at age 5, and cursed to become a bloodthirsty monster once a month, with little to no rights and a very diminished sense of self worth(then feeling like he was beholden to dumbledore/marauders for a place at hogwarts and friendship, thus resulting in his cowardice.) Peter idolized friends who saw him as lesser and then was later fighting in a war he didn't have a hope of winning. Lily was a muggleborn with one significant friendship and little to no social status. Snape was an abused, socially disadvantaged boy who got into all the wrong things in the middle of a war. they've all made so many mistakes and done horrible things, but I think you can pinpoint each and every reason and cause for each thing they did.
The stupid feud didn't either.
and ofc, their hatred of each other just added to the shitshow.
I'm of the opinion that you can love both.
absolutely. same. :)
That James and Severus both did change as people. What's your take on it?
ooh, this is going to be fun. ok so:
let's start with snape. 19-20 year old snape is very different from 31 year old snape, and this snape is much different from 38 year old snape. In his teens and youth, he's very much edgy bad boy/kylo ren, with all of the boxes checked, sad backstory, interest in villainy, and that one person who believed in him. he's not as composed or as ... posh, let's say. he's emotional, very dramatic(this doesn't change) and character wise, he's very much evil/grey.
fast forward to late 20s, early thirties snape, this one actually has a life that isn't angst. he gets a kick out of being an abysmal teacher, he's a certified dick, he was batman in an other life, he's badass with an emphasis on ass. i believe this period in snape's life is the least dramatic. he's just living his life. he had all that redemption shit in his past- but no, wait
because harry potter is in town, and though we don't see it, snape's changing. gone is his 'i don't give a fuck' persona; now he's forced to give one by dumbledore and later, voldemort. he's got antihero shit to do, and he does it. he's the plot device now, the one that's evil but not actually. thats him in book one, in book two he's the comic relief/background character, in book three he's the kinda sorta villain- and this is the game changer book in terms of his character. til now, snape doesn't necessarily like dumbledore, but he trusted him. with dumbledore once again supporting the (remaining) marauders, that trust, however feeble it had been, is now gone. which puts him and dumbledore in a precarious position throughout GOF, and an even worse position when voldemort returns.
see, snape likes to think he's very good at pretending he doesn't care/doesn't show his emotions. and though he's right on a superficial level, it's almost comically easy to read him. basically, the angrier he is- the more emotional he is. and throughout the last three books, he's in this weird balance of being oddly guarded and absolutely furious. behind walls of hostility and mystery was a man who's furious, terrified, sad, resigned, and trying his damn hardest to stay alive. he's back to where and who he was at 21 years old, except he knows what he didn't know then, and this is the pivotal change in his morality. He used to be a guy who realized that the movement he supported was hurting people he cared about, but now he's becoming a person who doesn't want anyone to get hurt, because he's 37 years old and he's fucking exhausted of lying and killing and fighting for a world that truly doesn't give a fuck. 'lately, only those whom I could not save,' is an underrated line for this reason alone; severus snape wasn't a man redeemed on a hilltop pledging his alliance to Dumbledore to fix his wrongs, he was redeemed more than a decade later, fighting in a pointless war and realizing that if he can't fix his wrongs, at least he can fight against the causes of it.
now james, on the other hand is a totally different bean. I'm not saying he isn't a good guy, but I most definitely don't think he changed, and here's why.
see, james potter is and will always be a good guytm. his world is black and white; where the heroes are like him and the villains are less than. and for the most part, this was never directly challenged. but it was indirectly challenged many times, and i'll talk about the ones that affected him the most.
first: the train scene and Sirius. A boy from a dark family who's kinda uncomfortable with the painfully light ideas he's spewing, but still buying it because the alternative is so much worse to him. James adjusts with this one remarkably quickly, he's a quick thinker, and in his eyes, Sirius is good because he agrees with him. it doesn't challenge him significantly, and besides, he likes this boy, so it's fine. who cares if he's a black. he's sirius!
second: Remus and the werewolf thing. Again, much of the same thing happens, and James still takes it in stride, because it's his friend and he would've died rather than turn on his friend. this is the defining and redeeming quality of james potter's character; he's loyal to those whom he deems deserving of it. and sirius, remus, peter have joined that list. James is a good guy, and he thinks remus couldn't possibly be like the other werewolves, because he's remus!
third: Lily. Lily challenges him throughout their years at Hogwarts- about his opinions, about his character, about his actions. but at the end of the day, she falls in line with his opinions(she cuts snape off), she still is attracted to him pre-7th year, which was when he supposedly changed, his actions(even when they were together, she didn't know that he was still getting into fights with snape). at the end of the day, even Lily affirms James.
see the trend here? james potter doesn't change how he thinks. he just makes exceptions/he rejects the challenge. sirius can't be bad, because he's sirius and sirius is his friend. remus can't be bad because he's remus and remus is his friend. and the same logic applied to peter when he was offered as the choice for secret keeper. his opinions can't possibly wrong because- look, he's right!
this is not me saying james potter was a bad person. of course not! some of the best people I know have this mentality. but he started out a bully, and tbh, best case scenario, he became a judgmental person. that is the farthest I think he changed.
again, I don't think he's a bad guy. teenagers are dumb, cruel people. james potter did bad shit as a teenager, but so did Snape, and as much as we point to his abuse as a reason why, being spoiled and encouraged on despite everything is still abuse, just a different kind.
the only reason I don't like James Potter when I do like Snape is because nearly everything I mentioned was reading between the lines and other headcanons. And even then, though he had the potential to be, he wasn't a dynamic character. he doesn't change, despite every opportunity to do so, and his misbeliefs are affirmed again and again.
At the end of the day, James the character exists to push Snape's character forward. And that isn't a very attractive thing to like.
I find it rather hilarious that Lily and James best friend and person they chose to watch over their son is a lot a like.
Sirius and Severus are both two extremes of the same story, and that's something that's incredibly interesting to explore, but this post is too long already, so I'll stop now. Thanks again for the ask!

I love the little sibling fox! Are you ever going to make a story as to how they found them? A lil origin story for our floofy baby. Also their interactions with splinter? I feel like he'd highkey just be like "this is my baby" with them since they're still small enough for him to physically baby XD
UH YES I WILL :D (this is finding them and after that ^^) YA'LL GOT A MEAL ISTG
THE WORD COUNT IS

if the ages don’t make sense yes they do fuck you /j
summary: the beginning of the Hamato family's precious [ ]
TW: BABIES??? Abandonment
December Days
Tumblr media
♪ It was the boy's second-time topside, snow flurried on the ground in early December snowfall. Leo had slipped while running and took a tumble into an alleyway. He had taken a long fall from the top of the 4-story building but landed in a big pile of snow so his fall was broken. He wasn’t badly hurt, just a few bruises. He was going to climb back up but paused, did the snow just move-?? His beloved twin had long since jumped down next to him “ ‘nardo cmon- “ Leo shushed and pointed at the snow. It again moved, Donnie had poked the pile which from it erupted a wailing noise. Raph and Mikey had jumped down to check out the wailing. Moving the snow it was a shivering fox kit-?? but it sounded like a baby. They shrugged, lifted the freezing kit, and decided that going home was probably the best idea. They all took turns holding it, Leo and Raph held it the best and the longest. Donnie hated the cold and the feeling of the wet fur, and Mikey was a little too clumsy at this point to hold the kit. Donnie blinked “How are we supposed to tell papa? “ at that Raph paused, you had stopped crying and your scrunched-up eyes were frozen shut “ I dunno… “ he hummed before continuing the walk “ We should tell him the truth! “ they almost made it in without you crying before the warmth of the lair (thank Donnie for figuring out how to make heating and cooling work) altering you. Small noises escaped you, Leo blinked “ why do they sound like that?? “ Donnie blinked “ well Leo, foxes make many noises, like yipping, growling, and even laughing “ Mikey smiled “ they can laugh!? “ you rolled around in Leo's arms which caused him to almost drop you " RAPHH " you blinked at Leo's yell and stilled. your frozen eyelids had melted and you cautiously opened your eyes everyone was quiet. not because they looked at you but because there was a rat-man, he wasn't short but he wasn't tall either "My sons, what do you have there? " they all shuffled before Raph spoke up motioning to the infant in Leo's arms " we were topside, and we found 'em buried under snow " he lifted you out of Leo's arms, your tiny arms squeezed against your body as tiny pawed feet twitched. you whimpered and started crying, the rat held you close to him as he padded into the warmth of the lair. Raph held you as the rat started digging through the kitchen before boiling some water, Leo had taken Mikey to get his extra layers off and in a blanket to warm up. the rat man took you from the turtle's arms and sat down, the turtles crowding around him as he fed you "...so can we keep them? "
Tumblr media
Raph looked at Splinter in the chair, his eyes soft as he looked downcast. he looked at your sniffling frame. you had gotten sick and every time he talked to Pops about it he would simply mutter "Not now red ". He sounded...rough. Raph held the baby and turned, you were in your twos and he knew this would stunt your growth. Eventually, though, Splinter looked down at Raph and looked so...sad...he scooped you from Raphs arms and patted his son's head " I'm sorry red...I didn't mean to ignore you. " the other kids flooded around his chair " will they be okay daddy? " you craned your neck to look at Mikey, letting out a happy chirping noise, despite your sick sniffles. you had gotten Leo sick as well so he sniffled and clung to your father's chair. " they'll be fine my sons, it's a minor cold "
Tumblr media
Raph was tip-toeing around you. he had so far; scratched your forehead with his claw, and broke your wrist with his tail. You'd walk up behind him and lift your arms so he'd pick you up. when you realized that didn't work you started grabbing onto his tail to get his attention. Raph would stop, stare and mutter a small " I ain't supposed to touch ya " You'd whimper and cry before Leo or Mikey scooped you up, even then you weren't happy. One night you woke up super early? late? he didn't really know what to call it but it was like 3 AM. Raph ran to get pops first, his pleas for help fell on deaf ears as he whimpered and walked to your crib, which was stationed in its own separate room. Mikey woke up first, rubbing his tired eyes as his beak made a clicking noise " Raphie-? what's goin' on? " and eventually after that...all his brothers awoke. the red-clad turtle lifted you up carefully and held your scarlet red fur to his plastron as he went down the line and tucked in his brothers. you were put on his bed because if Raph tried putting you down you'd scream and wail for him to pick you back up. he ended up sleeping on his side instead. you lay on a blanket and pillows built almost like a nest to keep you safe, Raph wrapped around you in a crescent moon shape, his tail pushing you into his plastron as you fell asleep together.
Tumblr media
They had quickly found out exactly what you were, it had been like a year and it was scary. one day you were brown becoming red, becoming brown, AND ALL YOUR COLOR JUST FELL OFF. IT WAS GONE. Leo panicked when that happened because it was the second time bathing you and all your fur just kinda started coming off while he was brushing you, you saw your fluff floating in the water and you started bawling you had enough brain power to know that was your coat. It took Donnie and Splinter to calm you and Leo down. April had been visiting when it happened and she laughed so hard, finding a bawling you and a panicked Leo in the bathroom. “ their color just came off! “ he said while brushing more of your old coat off, the water becoming full of fur that stuck to you like a magnet. You played with the floating fur and teleported out of the tub, your paws clattering on the ground as your white coat was flat from the water. Leo smiled and started drenching you in water. The shower head getting any remaining brown fur off you as he scrubbed your back and arms. Your coat was fluffy and pristine white after that. A day later snow started pelting the ground out of the lair. That’s when the joke of you being “ a weatherman “ started up.
Tumblr media
Donnie was plenty happy to see you around once you were welcomed..but once you started crawling? Sweet Galileo. Someone get him to a hospital he’s having a heart attack. You kept tumbling and falling snout first. Big tears in your eyes when whoever was closest would pick you up and shush you, rocking you back and forth as a way to quell your loud sobs. Donnie baby-proofed the WHOLE lair, in fact, his first AI prototype wasn’t S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N, but a playmate for you. A robot to keep you safe when his brothers were being rambunctious. He was startled out of his thoughts by a warm soft paw pad touching his revealed shell, he tingled and looked back at you, who was carefully touching the spines on his shell. With a small smile, he relaxed watching as you prodded its spongy texture curiously. He loved that about you, natural curiosity. You helped bring out the good in Donnie, your soft eyes and naïveté made him so anxious for you to see the world. But alas, he’ll be with you every step. And keep you safe. Your claw raked against his shell on accident, it didn’t hurt him in any way but it definitely scared the two of you. He watched as your panic turned into gentle sniffles, scooping you up he would let you sit in his lap as he made your friend. Someone to keep you safe when he couldn’t.
Tumblr media
Mikey was…admittedly sad. Everyone had something they could do with you. Raph literally raised you after you started walking. Splinter has attached to his chair again. Leo washed you and had spa days with you, and Donnie was the one you napped with. what was Mikey? In his deep thought, he failed to notice you coming up behind him and drawing on his page. once he noticed he had the initial reaction of pulling you away from it...but after you started sniffling he grabbed some paper and put it in front of you. You made some happy gibberish (for some reason you were taking long to talk) and Mikey went back to drawing that's what you two did together, how could he forget? He drew a picture of all seven of you, with Donnie's new addition he brought in, April, there was more to draw. but humans were so fun to draw! Mikey smiled at you "You having fun? " he was satisfied with the chirp you let out

David martinez x reader
They ends up getting killed by adam smasher alongside Rebecca [R.I.P you were the GOAT] so when Lucy goes to the moon she sees both David and y/n holding hands while on the moon.
My Moon My Man
Tumblr media Tumblr media
chars. david martinez, rebecca, lucy, falco, adam smasher w⚠️. death, blood, guns, sadness, swearing, major spoilers genre. angst, scenario wc. 1.4k note. lucy, y/n, and david are close. love you rebecca and fuck you adam smasher you raggedy ass rat. I wrote this in a different view point but i changed it because it seemed more suitable, so sorry if there's some mistakes. I wish I made it longer as well, my bad.
Becca, You, and Falco hunch behind the car to take cover from the bombardment of Arasaka's military. You grit your teeth, yelling and attempting to return fire to no avail. "Fuck! Where is he?!", you yell, impatiently waiting for the arrival of David.
"These corpo-pricks ever gonna give it a goddamn rest?" Rebecca exclaims while holding her shotgun close to her. "NCPD's joined in on the fun. Settle and get comfy.", you look at Falco in distress, "Do you have any plan on how to get out of this shithole?". Rebecca looks at her gun and says over the loud noise of the firing, "Yeah, I'm startin' to run low on lead..".
A bright red mark lands on surrounds the vehicle that they're taking cover with and some metallic objects fly up to the Cyberskeleton that David has taken host of. "Hey, we made it.", David looks down at down at Rebecca with Lucy in his arms. "Sure took your sweet time, gonkbrain." Becca smirks at David and Falco chuckles, before they both flinch at a bullet nearly hitting them. "Shut the fuck up!" David takes action shooting the artillery of his suit. "David!" David looks down at you and gives you a soft smile before turning to Falco with a serious look. "Falco.", "Yeah?", "I need a favor.", Falco looks a little confused but listens anyway while Rebecca gets Lucy to safety in the back of their vehicle, you're still staying behind with David and Falco.
"No rest at all...", Rebecca grabs her shotgun "Glad you're back safe." Lucy looks at Rebecca in before she states, "For David's and y/n's sake, I mean." Rebecca gives a side look and after hearing those words, she softly smiles but looks to the sky seeing something flying down and Rebecca notices before aiming and yelling "WE'RE HAVING A MOMENT HERE!-- FUCK YO-!". Loud smashing fills the air around them and the glass breaks beneath where Becca was just a moment ago. Lucy's face expresses terror and shock, seeing Adam Smasher walking away from Rebecca's mangled corpse. "REBECCA!" Falco yells in union with your "REBECCA, NO!".
"Son of a-" Falco gets up to draw his gun but was quickly knocked away from Adam and loses his cybernetic arm. You take the chance to run over to Rebecca, kneeling down and staring in disbelief.
David's still on the ground before he triggers his Sandevistan and attempts to attack Smasher but Adam moves out of it. "You have a Sandevistan?!" David says, still in the air after missing Smasher. "A rudimentary implant.", He calmly states while looking up at David in his eyes. "I'm the one you're after, ain't I?!", David yells in determination to destroy Smasher before he dies. "All the same meat to me. I'll slaughter each and every one of you.", "Not unless I zero your ass first!". Cyberpsychosis takes advantage of David's body and Adam finds quick opportunity to slam David into the ground face first. "Out of suppresants?" David's still bleeding from his mouth and nose. "Right on schedule.", Smash's standing with his back turned from David. "No, you don't!", Lucy tries to quickhack Smasher but he somehow manages to resist it. "How did you..?", Lucy suffers some minor circuiting before falling to the ground. Falco smashes through the rubble in the car and picks Lucy up in the back and drives away from the scene, set on getting Lucy away from the tragedy. "Falco... David and y/n's still back there... please..", desperately pleads, "Turn around!". "None leave the slaughterhouse! Not alive!", Smasher aims his arm, ready to fire a rocket but is quickly disrupted by the way the sound of yelling and shots being fired. "YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!", the voice belonged to you, who was currently shooting Adam in the back with your gun. "I'LL MAKE YOU FUCKING PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO BECCA!", Smasher turns and aims at you, ready to dispose of you for ruining his chance to blow up the vehicle.
Before he could take his shot, a heavy force pulls his arm down to the ground. "Get distracted much?", David's standing up, triggering the magnetic ability that the Cyberskeleton offered. "You..." Resists the force and grabs the Cyberskeleton's arm, "Who are you...", ripping it off, "to challenge me?". "You can't even stand without your antigrav crutches." Smasher taunts and belittles David while smashing the remnants of his Cyberskeleton. "You think you're special because you're scrappy?", Smasher has completely destroyed the Cyberskeleton. "DAVID!", you jump on Adam, trying to remove him from damaging David anymore than he already has. "And the both of you think you can take me down? Don't make me laugh!", Smasher removes and grabs you, throwing you to the ground on top of David. You grunt in pain before trying to quickly get up and attack Adam Smasher once more but was stunned from the shot that has taken form in your stomach. "Y/N!!" David looks in disturbance seeing blood spill from your mouth and stomach. "David...", time slows down as you quietly say, "I love you..", but it was deafened from the ringing ears of David. Despite that, he understood what you said before you hugged him closely. Adam took one more chance to shoot you again, finishing you off.
That was the last thing Lucy saw, her best friend hugging their lover before light covered their bodies and her vision of the view was blocked by a wall Falco passed. "Falco! Turn back!", Lucy yelled in complete distress of what she just witnessed but her demand was ignored. "No can do.", Falco races through barricades to escape the area. "It was David and y/n's final request. If I turn around now, they die for nothing." Lucy looks at him in shock and in absolute doubt of what he was saying. "We already have our reward money. They want us to split it, you and me. They also told me to tell you... Sorry. Wish we all could've gone to the moon together.".
David, covered in blood and limbs missing, looks to the sky. Nothing but rubble cover him and his lovers body. He shuts his eyes, realising that this would be it, this would be the end but at least his lover was with him to the end. It doesn't take long for him start laughing at the events that had happened.
Adam stares at him and his lovers lifeless corpse on top of him. "I had some fun, after all.", Smasher exclaims before saying, "You know, you could prove an interesting construct.". The closest thing of a compliment you could ever receive from him.
"Whatever, choom. Like I give a shit.", David scoffs at him ignoring the amount of pain he's suffering from.
"Oh, well." Adam aims once more but this time at David's head. David, prepared for the inevitable darkness that'll soon cloud his vision, shuts his eyes and thinks of everything he was able to experience while with Maine's crew and everything that lead him up to this point.
Meeting you, Lucy, everyone. The happiness and sadness all of you experienced. From parties and celebrating successful missions to losing members. He was so grateful to have met you.
He opened his eyes once more to look at your face, your eyes were closed with tears and blood covering your cheeks. He sadly stared for a small moment before moving his eyes to the barrel of Adam's implanted gun and smiled once again.
Lucy was seated next to the window on the moon tour bus, staring out and taking in the sights of what space had to offer on this foreign planet.
"Thank you for joining us on today's tour... Experience lunar gravity in a way no braindance can simulate..."
Once the bus had landed, Lucy took the opportunity to sneak away from the crowd and left to explore the more deserted areas of the moon that she had once visited via braindance. The announcer was right, it was nothing like what she experienced. Once walking further from where she had came, she made a stop to look at the rays of the sun, shielding her eyes from the sun with her hand. She was finally able to see it in person.
"Whoa! Check this!", a voice had creeped into her ears, it sounded like.. David? She looked a little further down, diverting her attention from the rays.
It was.. David and you together.. Close, holding hands, and staring at the scenery in awe.
"I can feel the sun!", David excitingly saying with you lightly smiling and giggling at his enthusiasm.
Lucy stares in bewilderment. You and David turn back to her and smile brightly, both waving at her. She was so happy to see you both again.
Admiring both of your smiles and listening to the sounds of your joy, before you both suddenly disappear from her view.
She drags her hand further down, sadness engulfing her. Standing in the lonesome of the moon's field. She puts her hand down completely, looking down and smiles bitterly but genuine nonetheless. She closes her eyes and moves her face towards the sun, opening her arms and embracing the radiant heat of the sun.
please do not repost my work anywhere. thank you.

Gonna-Try-To-Stay-As-Spoiler-Free-As-I-Can Reaction to Mutant Mayhem (Very SLIGHT Spoilers)
THE SOUNDTRACK I am legitimately in love. May be the best movie soundtrack I've listened to in a long time.
Voice casting was on point. Who can't love Jackie Chan as Master Splinter?
This Master Splinter has THE BEST ears. Omg, sooooo cute.
A+ origin story retelling. "I was an old rat, so I became an older rat. You were young turtles, so you stayed baby turtle things. When you think about it, that really makes the most sense." lmaooooooooo
Absolutely dug all the references to previous TMNT iterations! I have a feeling I could watch this movie 10 times and still find new ones.
Saw the Laird Pizza reference. Not sure if there wasn't an Eastman reference or if I just missed it. (EDIT: Thanks, notes! I did miss it!)
This...may be my favorite April O'Neil, actually. She was amazing.
Super into female Leatherhead, actually.
Splinter, I'm with your sons. THAT IS DISGUSTING. BLECH. I'm happy for you, but BLECH.
The big bummer about the movie is that part of the reason I love TMNT is because there really is no romantic content and when there has been romantic implications, they have been quiet and subtle. This is a great franchise for aroaces like me. ...Except for this movie.
The movie is listed as comedy but OMG it should be listed as heartbreaking. So much sadness and angst throughout. cry.jpg I was looking for happy feels, dang it!
I really think this movie is gonna inspire a ton of fanfic, and I am PUMPED for that.
Donnie's a massive fanboy, and I am LIVING for it.
So yeah. I loved it. I tend to favor the more serious versions of TMNT, so this doesn't take my top slot, but it's a very solid showing. I absolutely adore how the kids in the audience reacted to it. TMNT is for them, and it was great to see them loving it. I saw regular, but now I'm kinda tempted to go back and see how it is in 3D. The animation was super cool, so I imagine 3D was actually pretty fun.

animation was MESMERIZING
nino and alya were really well done, I love them. loved nino already having a crush on her. individually, I loved how they were such great friends to mari and adrien
every time I saw a cameo from the show, I screamed. "don't be bemused, it's just the news" YEAH!!!
LUKA!!!!!!!! LUKA!!!!!!!!! LUKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I'm so sad she didn't say "miraculous ladybug!" when fixing paris
"Chloe, enough. The adults are talking. Why don't you go fix your hair? It looks like a rat's nest" OHHHHH SHE IS EVERYTHING TO ME
adagio for strings playing in that scene was fucking insane
careless whisper as cat noir fell in love was fucking INSANE
do kids need fart jokes in the year of our lord 2023. has it ever been funny
the cataclysm was really well done. I felt adrichat's shock and fear of his own power (and maribug beautifully fixing paris after that was unintentionally so funny. he's really the Rogue to her Professor X)
love how messy ladynoir got, just like the show
I think adrichat and maribug were really well portrayed/adapted. though marinette revealing her identity was......... hm. I get it. but. hm
gabriel went from this guy to this girl so quick:
Tumblr media
gabriel you fuck.... you had me believing..... I came here with an open heart..... bitch
I... didn't like the songs much 👉‍👈‍ I would say I vibed the most with the villain song, but yeah.... I wish they were each more distinctive, that each character had a signature style, and the duets combined both
adrien saying he hadn't smiled and meant it for such a long time, nooooo 😭😭😭😭 SON I HAVE A PEN, LET ME SIGN THE ADOPTION PAPERS
adrien standing up to cringefail gabriel !!!!!!!
loved their portrayal of sabrina
loved the progression of villains, loved them bringing the mime back, loved the saving paris montage in the middle of the movie
loved marinette growing in confidence, and loved how they showed her anxiety in the beginning
the fair festival chaos got me GOOD I was PUMPED
when I realized marinette was singing on top of ladybug spots !!!!
adrien's transformation ate
this didn't happen too often, but some shots kind of felt like they dragged? tikki would ask something, and instead of going to marinette, we stared at tikki for like 5 seconds after that 😅
"he's not my-- I MEAN, her boyfriend" babygirl..........
them cutting to "THE END" like THAT. BRILLIANT. BUT WHOSE IDEA WAS IT. I JUST WANNA TALK
marinette carefully listening to adrien talk about his mother might be the most important scene of the movie for me
