#kid selves

[newtlesbian]

going further. franks child self was living in that one room with a strange weirdo boy he dreamed up but never really had. now his inner child isn’t alone anymore. he plays games with his real charlie in their terrible one room apartment. getting weird with it and being okay with being weird no matter what everyone on the outside might think. sharing a bed together to feel the comfort in being close to that

macs child self had charlie the whole time. inseparable. a package deal. the most genuine connection and comfort in both of their neglected tiny lives. not just because they were otherwise alone. decades later theyre not going anywhere. now their inner child rides bikes together they throw rocks at trains together they teach each other about the world just like they needed so desperately in old times

dennis’ child self never had charlie. not until highschool. but that was exactly when he experienced his csa. his inner child found charlie at the exact right moment. caught him when he fell. he got his child self back through charlie just as he lost feeling. and now what do the two of them do together? they go recreate memories and recapture lost youth with a mutual unspoken understanding of why

they all need charlie. relaxing into his genuine youthful energy lets them feel that way again.

#iasip #charlie kelly #:) the first one is the ‘playing together in this room all day’ from the last post i wanted to make it clearer #i wrote a part about dee but i decided its better to reblog with comment instead of one post #because this feels so good to me. so nice to think about him being uplifting. but not possible to ignore the darker aspects of his childhood #give you options #delicate. #im trying to be cautious #but you cant talk about the gang without dee and you cant talk about child selves without trauma. its not Honest not Authentic not Genuine #it does feel sad its kinda tough to touch on it. delicate yk yk #but she seeks charlies natural lack of ambition and a brother who doesnt push her to prop himself up #dees brother fought her and charlies sisters fought him. both cases about superiority. dee fights back charlie ignores #csa warning #kid selves #frank reynolds #bc theres no attention paid to him

I wanted to try my hand at giving them my own young adult designs. We see them as older adults, like middle aged, and briefly as teens sometimes, but never young adults. (that I remember, but maybe I'm wrong)

Maybe I'll use them for something, who knows. 👀

(Also before anyone asks, I probably won't draw any other characters as adults, sorry.)

Here’s a thought-

When Splinter says Leo’s the leader at the end of Season 2…pretty sure he was joking.

After so many high stakes and high emotions, he (a bit cluelessly) makes a joke to add some levity, just to make things a bit easier for he and his sons to digest everything that happened. It was a lot that happened, so it makes sense that Splinter wants to make things that much softer for everyone.

But- making a joke like that, after everything they all just went through…I can definitely see how the events of the movie pave out in response.

For example, by joking about Leo in particular having the responsibility of a leader, that puts him directly in the sight of Raph’s building anxieties. Because after everything, it’s clear that Raph really started taking the hero name seriously to the point that he started undermining his own fun and childhood in the process. So in the eyes of a Raph who is so worried about what could happen if they’re not prepared again, Leo in particular kind of stands almost as a point of danger in that aspect.

And with the joke of Leo “leading” in any capacity ringing out over them, it’s easy to blame Leo and Leo alone whenever he goes and goofs off with Mikey and Donnie. I think as well that the concept of a leader being spoken after the Shredder just pushes more weight on Raph’s shoulders and makes him realize how much goofing off they did before when they should have been better heroes (despite them all just being kids...)

Raph knows his brothers are good, he knows and has pride in them and himself in turn, but it terrifies him to know that they won’t be ready for the next big threat, and Leo directly going against this caution even more than usual just pushes Raph to want to try more.

As for Leo- keep in mind what happened all throughout “Many Unhappy Returns.” Keep in mind what happened all throughout the series in general. In the former, Splinter more than once points out how he would rather have his other sons with him than Leo, especially because they “would take this seriously”…even though Leo was taking it seriously. (Not that Splinter should be expected to read what Leo was doing when Leo wasn’t making his plans clear, but that wording sticks with kids.) Even after Leo’s plan pulled through, Raph’s the one who spoke in trust of Leo, not Splinter.

As for what happens in the series in general…well, we see Leo mess up a lot, apologize a lot, get his brothers out of messes a lot, and even when he does well or is responsible it’s either glossed over or still seen as goofing off (no I will never be over that moment where Leo almost got Gus’s tags and got screwed over out of pure bad luck.)

So imagine hearing a joke like that as Leo, who for a good chunk of especially the start of the series has been a lowkey voice of reason. The idea that Leo being responsible for the team is nothing but a joke…? It’s understandable that it could feel like a blow, that it could push him to want to try less.

Especially after everything they just went through.

They’re heroes. | They’re kids.

Why shouldn’t they care? | Why should they care?

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt raph #rottmnt leo #rottmnt splinter #splinter is not a bad dad but words can always cause unintended harm especially to kids and teens #Leo being the voice of reason in Bug Busters only to be rewarded with a near death experience rip #if I was him I’d clock out too #side note but I actually really like how Bug Busters and the movie kinda parallel each other just with Raph and Leo’s roles swapped #(and obviously the movie is much higher stakes) #splinter: haha imagine blue as the leader wouldn’t that be funny #raph & leo: *speedrun into developing bad habits as a response* #shout out to Raph in the show’s finale he really stepped up #but then he just kept stepping until all he knew was being a hero and a team and not his own age 😞 #Raph and Leo’s dynamic means so much to me it really does #both of them are self made caricatures at the beginning of the movie! not their true selves!! BOTH lean away from these masks at the end!

me watching the show

#paper girls #papergirlsedit #they ARE my poor time-traveling babies #also you know you're not young when you see teenagers in a time-traveling story judging their older selves #and you're like 'i would never let 12yo me talk to me like that' #my babies but also punk ass kids #*mine

charlie. a character of eternal genuine natural youthfulness. small with that really round soft face. and has this kind of childlike even innocent personality a lot of times. completely casual and effortless about it all just being himself living in his own world. playing little games collecting his nostalgic things because theyre so cool! and just completely unaware of his age. “youve been over fourty for years” never even realizing it or caring just “okay cool! :) lets go get my present from my moms house”

dennis. that intense clawing scraping vanity. painfully aware of his aging. loud denial does nothing you can see it eating away at him. and a desperate panicked attachment to the world of his youth. not the objects themselves like charlie focuses on but searching for his past self. wishing for that youthfulness that charlie doesnt even realize hes gifted with. all that and no jealousy aimed at charlie just comforting being around that feeling again

super interesting contrast when theyre a duo. and not just dennis but i wanted to highlight the differences. charlies nature tends to make the others sometimes relax in a way when theyre one-on-one with him. charlie emitting kid energy and not judging what the others would eagerly jump to mock for being juvenile or lame as they love doing to boost their status. charlie has no status. so you wanna go do something involving your connection to your childhood? say no more im already with you. our inner child can play together in this room all day or throw rocks at trains in peace

#¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hes kinda chillaxed when hes not in a murderattackkill frenzy #iasip #im tagging more things im in an attention mood #charlie kelly #charden #💌 #kid selves

watching ajtl is like being told that you will be kicked down the stairs of a 500 story building, accepting that you will be kicked down the stairs of a 500 story building, then getting kicked down the stairs of a 500 story building, screaming crying and throwing up while tumbling all the way down, and finally arriving at the bottom to get a pat on the shoulder and a bandaid that says "congratulations for surviving" 😊

#a journey to love #一念关山 #unpopular opinion maybe but actually the ending wasn't that bad since the narrative was doomed from the beginning. i cried a lot but i had #a good agonizing time. i only wish we had a special ep to show us yizhou with their kids & explain how tf they survived their BRUTAL deaths #also i will not lie i needed more of ltg and yy #show me their 10 year timeskip selves!! #all in all its a great drama that i recommend!! i rated it 8.5/10 and i havent rated a drama in a while so that says a lot #i miss my ruyi already... ill see if i can finish that fic im working on for her

Shihou and Mihou are laying in the grass and looking at the sky. They are holding hands (and tails). Shihou hasn't received the name Sun Wukong yet. None of them are immortal.

This is nice

It is.

The stars look pretty.

They do.

...What's going on?

Shihou giggles.

What do you mean?

You're acting weird. You're never this quiet.

Oh, so I can't lay down to rest with my best pal every once in a while?

Mihou punches his softly. Shihou cackles and Mihou shushes him

Shut- up! You'll attract a predator with your loudness.

Okay, okay– don't hit me. ...I totally could fight a predator, though.

Mihou scoffs. Sure you could.

Are you doubting me? I am the great Monkey King, no predator can beat me!

Mihou chuckles. An idiot is what you are.

They stay like that for a while. Shihou is smiling and staring at Mihou.

What are you looking at?

Shihou snorts. Oh, nothing. You're just very beautiful, bud.

Mihou blushes and sits up, turning his body to face Shihou. He looks angry. You did not just ‘bud’ me.

Oh, c'mon, when did you start disliking that nickname?

...Never. It's just not appropriate for this moment.

Oh, this moment? And what's that supposed to mean, hmm?

You're infuriating.

But you love me.

Maybe a little.

Maybe a lot.

Mihou laughs. You just– bud. You can't call me bud when you're saying stuff like that.

Why not?

Because— because!

Well, then how do I say it without sounding corny?

What do you mean?

Shihou touches Mihou's cheek with his hand.

Well. I mean that I think you're beautiful.

Shihou grins mischievously.

Bud.

Mihou jumps on top of Shihou and they start play fighting. After a while, Mihou lays his head on Shihou's chest and breathes.

Hey.

Shihou is asleep. Mihou listens to his heartbeat and smiles, closing his eyes.

...I think you're beautiful too. Buddy.

Hey!! LOVE your miraculous creatures stuff! I think it’s a really cool interpretation of the animal themes, and the costumes are very clever!

Gushing aside, I was scrolling through your miraculous tag, and I’m wondering why Adrien is so short in all of them 😂 Is this a creatures thing or do you just like the vibe of him being short? Like to match your butch Marinette concept? He’s just so tiny 🤣

Thank you!

adriens height is unrelated to creature!!! he feels Short to me. he has Short King energy. i really like short boy and tall girl friendships

#i think as adults hes about average height and marinettes just really damn tall #shes lanky and spindly like a bug #as grownups i hc adrien is like 5'6 and marinettes around 6'0 #167 cm and 182 cm for my international friends #as their kid selves ie how i usually draw them theyre much shorter than that tho #answers #not art
