Something I appreciate in the Dishonored fandom is that some other fandoms are filled with too much ship purity culture where you get guff if you enjoy or even just respect a problematic ship™ (which may or may not actually be "problematic" in some way), and it's annoying and makes for a more hostile fandom environment from people on all sides imo, and then you have Dishonored fans who went "yes we will ship the sad wet rat dad with the man who killed his wife" and that is extremely valid of them tbqfh

you are young that's your fault | (Rise!TMNT & Mom!Reader - Rise!Splinter x Reader)
Summary: HC’s of you being a Mom to the turtles, and slight Splinter x Reader.
Version: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Warnings: No? Not that I can thing of.
I’ve never written for the turtles of any kind, so I’m sorry if I do this wrong.
Tumblr media
You met Lou by accident, and you met him through a small, mutant box turtle. A real cutie pie. You hadn’t freaked, and instead took the small, scared baby into your arms and fed him, rubbing his shell. Lou had rushed over, having realised he lost his youngest and freaked out upon seeing you.
You didn’t care. In fact, you recognised his hair style, despite the fact he was changing into a rat. You happily helped him, buying food and baby products, clothing and anything else he needed. Lou - now going by Splinter - was thankful, grateful.
It was only when the eldest - Raphael - called you “Mamma”, did Lou ask you out on a date.
Congratulations! You just gained a boyfriend and four sons! You then later gained a daughter through April, and a grandson through Shelldon. And an enemy in Big Mama. And, Draxum had so many bruises from you hitting him (how dare he hurt your family?). And eventually, a nephew in a Casey Jr.
You lived a strange life, but not one that you would change. And, with each one, you treated each child differently, depending on the child.
…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Tumblr media
Raphael:
He’s the eldest, so he gets it into his head he needs to be the eldest and stop relying on his Mom and Dad.
“You’ll always be my baby.”
Cue Raphael instantly relaxing, smiling. “I know, Ma.”
Calls you “Ma”, as a way to keep his old name for you - “Mama”.
You recall that day with fondness.
He wants hugs so badly, but he’s terrified to hurt you. But you helped raise him since he was a baby, so you know how to navigate his spikes.
You make him extra large clothes, and clothes with holes in for his spikes.
When he was leader, you would pamper him and give him a massage, because he deserved it.
You hated Ghostbear... hated him. But, you would listen to your baby talk about Ghostbear.
You made and bought him so many teddy bears for him. You're the reason he loves them so much.
Mrs. Cuddles - any time she’s on screen, you switch the channel or distract him.
His fear of loneliness used to be worse when he was little, but you told him you’d always be there, watching him, and protecting him. I mean, it’s still not good... but better than it was.
…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Tumblr media
Leonardo:
He went to Splinter and Señor Hueso for advice. But, sometimes he needed his Mother.
Calls you “Mom”.
You would sit and watch Jupiter Jim movies with him, and would listen to him info dump about the movies.
He needed hugs and head pats. Poor baby was touch starved, but tried to act like he didn’t need it.
“Hey so... Mom, if you want, obviously you don’t have to. Just for laughs. You wanna scratch under my chin? Hahaha — ”
“Would you like chin scratches baby?”
“... Yes please.”
Any joke he says, no matter how terrible, you laugh. It’s worth it, seeing his face light up.
He doesn’t trust Draxum, and he never will, so he hides behind you since you do not hesitate to take off a slipper and throw it at Draxum.
Spanish lessons together.
As much as he pranks and annoys the others, he will instantly stop misbehaving if you give him a Look™. That Look™ means he’s in trouble!
Cue the brothers saying “oooooo”.
So, just because he goes to Señor Hueso and Splinter more than you, does not mean he doesn’t love his Mom.
…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Tumblr media
Donatello:
Needs attention. Needs physical touch. Needs affirmation. He’s the middle child, he needs attention!
You didn’t touch his shell unless he was okay with that, and you were the only one who could give him hugs and kisses - unless he specifically stated otherwise.
Sometimes would go nonverbal, so you learned Sign Language.
Calls you “Mama”, but in the same way he calls Splinter “Papa”.
“Oh Mama! Could you give me a screwdriver!”
You sometimes cover his ears if he doesn’t have his noise cancelling headphones. You’ll just stand there and keep them covered.
He dumps Shelldon on you.
(Jokes on him, you love Shelldon!)
He gets annoyed though, since Shelldon goes to you a lot when he doesn’t comply with what Shelldon wants.
Mama: Donnie? Why did my Grandbaby just come to me crying?
Donnie: He wants grapes! He can’t eat grapes! You know that!
Mama: Make a liquified grape flavour oil, or so help me God!
Sometimes he doesn’t want you to touch him. You’ve never done anything, it’s just sensory issues. So, you kiss the air around him, as if kissing his cheek. You caress the air around his cheek, never touching him, as if caressing his cheek.
The Purple Dragons are your worst enemy, and you hate them.
Sometimes, he just needs you around and he’s happy. That’s all. He loves you a lot.
…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Tumblr media
Michelangelo:
The baby of the family, and your youngest. Therefore, constantly all over you.
Clinging to you. Hugging you. Arms and legs wrapped around you and you hold him close.
Head pats. Shell scratches.
The wall on your side of your and Splinter’s bedroom is covered in drawings and art pieces Mikey gave to you.
You taught him how to cook, and Mikey grew to love him. Gives you dishes all the time to try.
Meat Sweats and you have beef. Any time you see him, you fight him... after you forced him to sign his chef book to give to Mikey.
You didn’t treat Mikey like a baby, you treated him like an adult, much to Mikey’s delight, but at times he wants his Mom to hug and baby him.
Calls you “Momma” and “Mom”.
Mikey dislikes that you don’t get along with Draxum, so when Mikey is around, you're more tolerable of Draxum. When Mikey looks away, you give Draxum a threatening gesture.
Helped you make a photo album on your phone of them as babies. Instantly regretted it because if you're ever kidnapped, the kidnapper now knows everything about the turtles as babies, and has seen the pictures.
“Momma… you didn’t show him the one — ”
“The one where you shoved crayons up your nose? I did! You were so cute!”
“NOOOOO—!”
Mikey finds that embarrassing - especially when you showed Meat Sweats. But, didn’t mind so much when Hypno and Warren returned you out of their own free will, apologising and suddenly, he gained two new (gay? Are they evil and gay? Cool!) uncles!
…ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ
Ultimately you love your boys and your little family.

What if we make Barbie really be the dad that stepped up for Sasha, like, maybe El esposo de Gloria died when Sasha was a baby (I'm not willing to make him a bad person, sorry) so after some years of being a single mother, Gloria finally finds a supportive partner, and guess who is it, Barbara Fucking Handler, who is an attractive marketing senior in Mattel, but it's also the biggest loser of all time (I'm thinking something like Secret Comic Nerd™, or Vanilla Gym Rat), and also a middle aged dad trapped in a thirty-five years old woman's body, she tells dad jokes, she plays catch with Sasha, she loves a good grill day, and, most importantly, is so painfully head over heels for Gloria that Sasha can do nothing but accept the woman in their family.
(She's very happy to have someone to gang up with her when asking for McDonald's, and also, Barbie somehow knows Spanish?? So that's a point for the blonde for sure.)

Since i just had a panick attack, how would the cast react to someone near them having one? Possibly with bonus Brick if that's okay?
Sorry if this has been asked before
(I'm sorry you had to deal with that. I hope you're feeling better! Yes, you can have a bonus Brick!)
Handling a panic attack
Peppino: He's all too familiar with panic attacks. He asks first how you feel about physical contact and if it's okay for him to rub your shoulders. He helps you come back to reality. He uses the 54321 method to help you calm down. (If you're not familiar with it, this is a quick explanation.)
Gustavo: He brings you to a quiet place and asks what's wrong. He gives you things you fidget and stim with. He asks if you'd like to pet Brick. He asks if you need space and assures you that he's there if you need anything at all.
BONUS Brick: Brick is very good at sensing emotions. He can tell you're very stressed! He swoops over and rubs against you. He doesn't stop until you pet him. He sniffs your face and tickles you with his whiskers. He gives you lil rat kisses on your nose. He even snuggles up to you. He's a good service rat.
Mr. Stick: He is very worried. He's had a few panic attacks, but he's never seen someone else have one. He asks what's wrong and if there's anything he can do to help you. He isn't the greatest, but he does his best.
Pepperman: His sensitive and sympathetic side comes out. For once, he's worried about someone other than himself. He's not too sure what to do, so he sits beside you and tries to get you to talk about what happened. He speaks very softly.
The Vigilante: Dad friend. He removes you from the situation and takes you somewhere quiet. He gets you some water and a snack. He asks if you want to pet a cow or Mort. He gets Mort, who acts all goofy and makes you laugh. Once you're calm, he asks you what happened.
The Noise: He panics a little bit, too. He's not sure whether you're sensory seeking or avoiding, so he takes you somewhere quiet but gives you a bunch of his favorite stim toys. He leaves you alone and checks on you after a while.
Noisette: She knows exactly what to do. She takes you away from the situation. She gives you something to stim or fidget with. She reminds you to breathe and has you take deep breaths with her. She does the 54321 method. She gives you some water and a blanket.
Fake Peppino: He can sense something is wrong. He pokes you, but you don't respond. Then he nudges your shoulder, but you still don't respond to it. He thinks soft physical touch might help, so he does things that make him happy. He strokes your hair, rubs your shoulder, and nuzzles his head up to you.
Pizzahead: He's handled a few panic attacks before. He brings you to a comfortable place and has you lay down with a soft blanket. He brings you some water and a free Pizzaboy plushie. He sits besides you and waits until you're ready to talk.
Pillar John: He's incredibly concerned. He's not too sure what's going on with you. He gives you a good classic Pillar John Bear Hug™. He puts you down softly, kneels down to your level, and asks how else he can help.
Gerome: He gently holds your arm and takes you somewhere quiet. He asks if you want some water or a snack. He gets you to talk it out with him. His voice is soft, and his tone is caring.

Ok I have to know more about 'allegedly human at some point'
so! this rotund rodent, RATGRL (secret identity Wynona Lavinia Willow), is a superhero. she was once a normal human "boy" who, while wandering around the labyrinth underneath her Fictional, Vaguely New England Area City (y'know as one does) encountered the Cosmic Rat King, who decided to adopt her as his daughter and give her Rat Powers™.
it's not every day that you gain super strength, the power to commune with rodents, the ability to disappear into shadows, a new gender, and a new dad!
now a superhero, she wanted to be called "Ratgirl" but that was already taken. thus, the identity of RATGRL was born.
over the years, using her powers has caused her to gradually transform from fully human-looking into a full rat anthro (and additionally has become much heftier in the process >;3c). the entire reason for this is that i'm a massive sucker for slow tf and wg, and i love being self-indulgent.

Okay fuck it, Gehrman, Maria and the Doll Post.
Buckle in bucko cus I have lots of thoughts. This isn’t really evidenced or a lore post, it’s just a compelation of assorted Rat (tm) opinions on these three’s relationship and how it intersects with some of those delicious themes in my brain.
Gehrman, Maria and the Doll are, basically, about legacy to me- particularly Gehrman’s failure to secure the continuation of his hunters through Maria.
We know Maria as Gehrman’s apprentice, possibly one of a few but that is left vague, that he had a “curious mania” in regards to her that she was unaware of. This “mania” to me is Gehrman’s desire to keep his legacy going, his methods of hunting and the workshop (kinda like a parental figure trying to make their child a little them). This is reflected in Maria’s desire to gain strength through practice and her dexterity, not innate abilities.
They have a pretty wholesome dynamic of ‘mentor you trust enough to kinda consider your dad’ thing going if you ignore all the murder. Maria being separated from her Cainhurst family as she deliberately distances herself from them and Gehrman (who is very very family oriented to me) likes looking after people.
Maria’s acceptance of the First Hunter 2.0 role, however, runs up to the Fishing Hamlet Massacre, and then crashes.
The Hamlet and the events there forced Maria to realise the violence such a role entails. Additionally, I can see her putting two and two together about what exactly the beasts are here also. Unlike Gehrman, she doesn’t see the murder of these people as an act of mercy, and forgos her status as a hunter, throwing away the Rakuyo. This creates a divide between them and they aren’t as close ever again.
When the Healing Church gets going, they both participate. Gehrman does his whole ‘hunting from the shadows’ deal while Maria works in the research hall. They get into arguments sometimes about their different views of the hunt and its validity, and Maria’s depression progressively worsens as the Research Hall gets more violent and her crush gets slugs put in her brain. She is complicit in the Research Hall out of a desire to ease the pain of the patients and this compounds the guilt she’s still feeling from the Hamlet. This guilt, eventually, leads to her death.
Gehrman doesn’t take this very well. As a result, he gives up hunting and isolates himself; having failed in his mission to create a lineage of hunters, help Maria with what she was going through, and simply be an alright dad to her. He misconstrues Maria’s more masc presentation, her headstrong and dynamic personality, as an extension of the hunt and thus strips those qualities of her in his attempt to memorialise her.
Gehrman, foolishly, thinks that he alone is to blame for Maria’s disillusionment. He thinks that Maria would’ve been the most comfortable as a traditional feminine figure (he.... doesn’t know many women, only what he’s read in books). So this is what the Doll is- Gehrman’s attempt to atone for making Maria’s life miserable.
This is complicated when Flora brings the Doll to life to accompany Gehrman in the Dream; the Doll is nothing like Maria because they have been stripped of everything that made Maria who she was. Gehrman just avoids them as a result, effectively abandoning his wooden child without them having a clue why.
The Doll is not Maria. Although it’s implied they share some memories (or the feelings those memories evoke) and the Doll is put at ease when Maria is put to rest in the Nightmare, I see this more as Great One shenanigans than them being the same person. Flora animating the Doll with Gehrman’s memory of Maria is the most interesting take to me- he’s forgotten a lot about her and what’s left is someone unrecognisable with the same voice. 
And that’s where it stays. The Doll is an animated product of grief who unintentionally freaks Gehrman out and makes him feel sick and they have 0 idea what they’re doing wrong.

I was thinking about the nature of Kaz's and Per Haskell's relationship and honestly this needs a deeper dive, but the simple conclussion I came to is - Per Haskell is an Eastern Europen Dad ™
He is almost fully absent in his child's life despite living at the same house. On rare occasion he walks into his room, loudly snorts or farts or all together and asks Kaz how old is he or does he do drugs. He then begins a monologue as an attempt to teach a life lesson and then it ends with a conclussion of "don't become like me/but also look up to me/but ur already a fucking disappointment/jail sucks shit btw"
He randomly drops his crazy life lore, and when Kaz points out that some parts sound kinda unlikely since all he does now is lays on his butt and drinks vodka, Haskell gets offended and says smth among the lines of "oh I deserved that rest, unlike all this younger generation of snowflakes. I also once broke a leg, but you don't see me walking with a cane, do you?", a.k.a. the argument so stupid to the point when it is hard to come up with counter argument
When Haskell's friends come over(other Barrel rats of higher status, I'm guessing) and he allows Kaz to "sit with them and learn some wisdom", he basically makes him be an errand boy that hands out drinks and has to shut up when his additions to their conversations are actually smart
When he asks Kaz for "a little help" it always turns into a 10hrs of manual child labour and verbal abuse
When Kaz reaches drinking age(probably in Ketterdam u can legally drink at 16, although I doubt anyone there cares about it) Haskell takes him to his favourite bar to celebrate. Ends up super drunk himself, while Kaz is barely tipsy
Haskell angrily comments on Kaz's teenage slang(and I bet my liver he speaks with a mix of Barrel jargon and fancy mercher's dialect) cause he doesn't understand half of it
He tells some insensitive discriminatory shit(something homophobic for example, if homophobia was a thing in grishaverse) and then proceeds to tell a story from his youth that directly contradicts his views("so in the army I shared a room and a bed with this one guy... If he were a girl, I would've married him... what a strong real male friendship it was, really..."). Kaz listens to all this with an unreadable expression

absolutely need to know what it’d look like if terzo took the kid(s) to Disney💙
dad! terzo at disneyland
i’m a huge disney person so this was so fun to write! thank you, anon!! i hope you enjoy!🐭✨
Tumblr media
i think you guys are going to disneyland (in california) rather than disneyworld. he’s not a fan of florida. hates the politics. plus it’s humid and he’s a diva.
i feel like he likes seeing the face characters. he’s a theatrical man himself, so he appreciates their talent and quick wit. and he loves the way the kids’ faces light up when they get to meet their favorite character 🥲
the kids want to meet aladdin? awesome. rapunzel? of course.
(HE LOVES TANGLED, I JUST KNOW IT. HE DOES. HE’S SO FLYNN RIDER CODED.)
but he doesn’t trust the masked characters. he’s protective.💀
you have to reassure him that it’s fine, just someone doing their job, like any of the other characters.
“that rat is suspicious, no?”
“terzo, that ‘rat’ is mickey mouse. it’s fine.”
refuses to go on splash mountain because he “doesn’t want to get his hair wet”. the kids beg and beg and beg and he won’t budge but as he sees people walk off fairly dry he’s like “it’s not like i’ll get that wet.”
yeah, he gets soaked. 💀
he makes it through the big drop™ just fine, and lets out a sigh of relief. but as your boat is outside, another boat embarks on the drop, and as it lands, splashes water EVERYWHERE. (everywhere being onto terzo. everyone else is barely sprinkled.)
the kids (and you) get a kick out of that, and he (jokingly) threatens to leave them in the haunted mansion.
of course, his favorite ride is the haunted mansion.
if one of the kids is scared of the haunted mansion for some reason (that was me, haha) he will pick them up and reassure them that papa will absolutely destroy any ghoul or goblin that comes near his precious baby.
he hates the matterhorn mountain. he says it’s because it’s rickety and makes his back hurt. but we all know the truth. it scares him shitless. he SCREAMED when he saw that yeti come around the corner. and of course, the kids laugh their asses off at this. to his defense, that yeti is terrifying.
these kids will never get bored in long lines. terzo is anything but boring. a lot of people will play the disney version of the game “heads up” on their phones in line (basically charades). terzo does too, but he is so funny. he gets so into the acting that other people in line join in.
okay so i think terzo is a foodie, or acts like one, but he’s not above a good mickey mouse pretzel. or a churro. or one of those giant ass turkey legs. yeah, maybe he’s not always a foodie.
totally takes the kids to the bibbidi bobbidi boutique if they want to. (if you don’t know what that is, it’s a place where they give little kids makeovers into a prince/princess/fairy)
and he doesn’t care what character they want, if his little girl wants to be a prince, that’s wonderful. if his son wants to be a fairy, awesome. doesn’t care. doesn’t push any expectations or gender stereotypes onto them.
i honestly think he would like disneyland. he might grumble when there are rude people, say some threatening things in italian under his breath, but beyond that, he has a great time.
and if YOU’RE a disney person too, he loves seeing you experience the magic with your kids.
anything that makes his family happy makes him happy.🥰
————————————————————
AAAA! that’s it!!!
i hope you enjoyed or it brought a bit of fun to your day!🥺
requests are always open!!
❤️, alice

How did F!Leo get Leo Junior in your AU?
Ahha! you have given me the perfect excuse to share this snippet of the fic I'm working on for this
So Leo wasn’t dead, despite his best efforts. Plus despite his resolve to not think about it™ he was indeed fulfilling his promise to DDT. That happens when you’re looking down at the newly mutated rat version of your Dad and four little turtles in the cardboard box next to him Leo tries not to not linger on. 
Dad at this point is skinny and lanky; he really doesn't look all that different from Lou Jitsu. Leo wonders if he had kept better care of himself would he have had such a hard time adjusting. Probably, in the later days of Dad’s life he had lost a lot of his fat from the virtue of rations and regular fighting for your life-style exercise. Even then Leo didn’t think his Dad ever fully accepted his rat form.
But he looks so young here. Passed out in their old lair, the first one they had before shredder. It looks like he collapsed in a heap of exhaustion the second he found somewhere dry. Rain and bits of sewage muck still clinging to him. He was already so tired, how? It couldn’t have been more than a week since they were first mutated. 
That's another thing when he told Mikey to make a time gateway he didn’t expect his brother to be so extra about it. He really just meant to send Casey back to the day of, if not a few days before so he could get his barings first. The two had discussed it. Leo knew it would take everything he had that Mikey wouldn't be able to hold out long before getting destroyed. Especially in a heat of the moment spell. Which is why Leo knew sending Casey back here was impossible. That and he had already spent days scouring the city for a sign of him.
No, his presence here probably had more to do with the intricate fading orange design lacing up his arms. It had that sort of cracking appearance that Mikey did while making the time gateway. This however was more controlled and purposeful, with letters he couldn't understand woven between the lines. This spoke of a longstanding spell, something that Mikey had made in the event of either of their deaths. It had glowed bright the way their mystic powers did when he first arrived and had steadily been growing duller. Leo hoped they remained, he never got the chance to grab Mikey’s mask, a memento of his last brother.
There was also the chance that the marks fading meant his time here was up. But Leo somehow doubted it. There was nothing really going on around this time. The foot clan hadn't even begun thinking about collecting pieces of mystic armor. Leo had already looked for hide or hair of the key and came up with nada. Their mutation had already happened so that meant Draxum’s lair was destroyed and he wouldn’t be causing problems for anyone anytime soon.
That was the crux of the issue wasn’t it. The four baby turtles. He hovered over the little box. One side was soaked already peeling off at the corner. He knew everyone would be tumbling out the second they were awake enough to test the integrity of their playpen. They were all so small he could fit them all in one hand easily. Mikey was obviously the smallest of them all adorably round and clinging to Donnie’s leg even with the soft shell trying to kick him off in his sleep. It was almost funny if the sight of his twin at any stage of his life didn’t have Leo tearing up. He moved quickly onto the biggest of the lot and had to cover his mouth choking back a sob.
Their exact ages had gotten fuzzy with time. But Leo was pretty sure this little Raph was closer in age to his Raph than Leo was.
He wanted to scoop them up and hug all his brothers again. But he was pretty sure their shells were weak at this age and Leo wasn’t sure he could hold back squeezing them as tightly as he could. Besides, he didn't deserve it.
Raph and Donnie you could call those accidents markers of Leo’s incompetence. Not Mikey, he had looked his baby brother in the eye. The same baby brother that was making a mix between chirping and babbling noises in his sleep. Had looked him in the eye and asked him- told him to die. Had premeditated and planned his little brother's death. Leo wished he had died first, not just before Mikey but before all of them. He should've, they would probably been better off for it.
… Speaking of.
The last turtle he had been avoiding looking at. Simply because it was about to become relevant and Leo couldn’t be one hundred percent sure that this whole thing hadn’t been orchestrated by DDT as petty revenge for Leo dismissing him before. Actually right now that was his top working theory.
Leo had never seen any baby pictures of himself. Dad didn’t have a camera back then. He had no idea his markings used to be lighter, getting more pigmented with age. The light green stripes were practically cat scratches. He was sleeping restlessly trying to roll over in his sleep to find the other tots. Leo put his hand in between him and Raph just before little him could make contact. Their hands touched showing just the sheer size difference between then and now.
“It’s pathetic to be mad at a literal child,”
DDT wasn’t wrong, it did feel ridiculous to have beef with a baby. He picked the tot up, who gave a displeased squeaking sound in his sleep but didn’t wake up. It did make the others stir the sound disrupting their sleep. Surely that was a metaphor for something. Leo’s loud mouth always causing his brother's problems. Raph’s eyes cracked open looking up and zeroing in on Leo. He was pinned under the gaze with wide clear eyes that have never seen the horrors of this world.
Even at fifteen his brother's gaze had never been that unburdened. Since shredder and their first loss in the family Karai Leo had never seen them without a certain tragedy coloring his brothers outlook on life. The soon to follow apocalypse and the countless deaths that followed merely cemented that in his brothers look which Leo had forgotten what he looked like before.
He couldn’t let that future befall his brothers. Any of it. He wanted to keep them safe and sheltered and beg Dad never to let them out of the sewer. 
Oh how they would hate that.
He couldn't protect them from everything. There would always be low level threats and a curiosity that leads to them. All he could do was his best to get rid of some of the bigger ones and make sure the Krang never happened. It also meant he couldn't stay here. He would always be a little piece of the apocalypse a forgotten timeline. It would cast a shadow over his brothers and ruin their childhoods. That was fine he could work from the shadows behind the scenes thats where he did his best work. He just had to guarantee the Krange never happened.
There was one way to do that. He looked at the baby in his hand. Sometimes you need only remove one bad seed.
Raph had stared long enough to realize Leo wasn’t releasing his brother. He made grabby hands and little babbling sounds that were precious in every way. Leo smiled sadly. Moved into the shadows. Raph cried out. He didn’t look back.

My college AU explained
Jotaro, Kakyoin, Polnareff and y/n all collectively rent a house near their university. It's somewhere in the US.
Joseph and Suzie have an open marriage because she wanted a few side pieces but Joseph turned into a massive slut
DIO and Jonathan are vampires. Diego is DIO's cousin who just shows up sometimes.
Josuke isn't Joseph's son, he's a distant relation of Jonathan's but everyone just calls him cousin. He started a cult for the sole purpose of performing "miracle healings" with Crazy Diamond
Stands exist here but nobody really cares about fighting or world domination or anything
The Pillarmen are like, cryptids. Everyone knows they're there somewhere but nobody messes with them either because Joseph tried and came back missing half an arm
Morioh is still a hub for peaceful stand users
Kira moved to the US because it's easier to fit in with nutjobs like Americans
He hasn't been caught yet
Josuke travels a lot for Cult Reasons™
Golden Wind and Stone Ocean haven't happened
Dio has three toddlers and an infant to look after because he didn't practice safe sex and the mothers wanted nothing to do with him
Giorno is the baby
He tries very hard to be a good dad
Jonathan helps
Caesar's alive because fuck you
He's Joseph's other partner and tries to keep him responsible
Kakyoin's English is better than Jotaro and Polnareff's
Joseph found Shizuka in a box in an alley near his and Suzie's main house in Manhattan and they both absolutely dote on her
Abdul and Polnareff are dating and everyone knows that but Polnareff
Abdul visits the house like, all the time
He practically lives there
Polnareff and Kakyoin are like, total gym rats
Jotaro is just Like That™
Iggy, Petshop, Coco Jumbo, Stray Cat, and Danny are all lovingly cared for by Jonathan
They talk shit about DIO all the time
Bucciarati is in the middle of Doing Normal Tweenager Things™ in Napoli
Jotaro actually really likes dinosaurs and likes Diego more than DIO, which DIO really hates
Abdul is really into electric swing and teaches Polnareff swing dancing
Jotaro drinks tea like a fish, he hardly ever drinks water, just tea
Diavolo and his nonsense is happening in Italy so it's not a problem until later

Another Obey Me MC: Navy
Tumblr media
Design made with this picrew
Full Name: Navy Kodi Farmer Age: 19 (At the beginning of the exchange program) Voice Claim: Daman Mills Gender: Nonbinary (AMAB) Pronouns: They/Them Sexuality: Poly-Pansexual Birthday: October 31st (Shares a birthday with Diavolo! :D) Height: 6'2 (187.96 cm) Likes: Multi-tasking, shooting stars/stargazing, cosplay Dislikes: School, heights, being rejected
Dating: Literally Everyone ™ (Execept Luke, for very obvious reasons) Positive Personality Traits: Witty, innovative, punctual Negative Personality Traits: Stubborn, overly meticulous, hurtfully blunt Strengths: Has management/leader skills, mechanically gifted, able to catch small details Flaws: Gets overwhelmed easily when there is too much to do, sometimes uses escapism to not think about personal issues, unable to trust easily Pact Marks: Lucifer- Right shoulder, right smack on it, because Navy tends to wear sleeveless shirts Mammon- Neck, since that's the space he has claimed as his spot when he wants to rest his head on them (although he does throw hissy fits when their shirts hide his pact mark sometimes) Leviathan- Palm of their right hand, because that's the hand Navy typically hold his hand with when calming him down or showing affection Satan- Wrapped around their middle finger on the left hand, so they can say "f u" with the power of Wrath Asmodeus- Left arm, he likes to hook onto it when he's with Navy Beelzebub- Stomach, because he thinks it's very fitting, and he likes to sneak up behind them and hug them close, typically wrapping his arms around their stomach or waist Belphegor- Back across from Beel's pact mark, because he likes to rest there, and especially because they can pick him up and he can piggy back ride them Fun Facts: They have hearing aids, although don't wear them all the time. When their bfs have pissed them off, they take em out and "pretend" not to hear them (they actually can't hear them very well) They have an owl familiar (I actually don't know if that is an owl in the picrew, but let's pretend it is). His name is Hazel :) They live in the HoL but tries to make time to visit the castle and Purgatory Hall (Barbatos has said that the Young Master gets upset when they don't visit) Navy likes pickles, and while Diavolo had look at them horrified the first time he realized this, he now gives any pickles he may get on his food to them Navy has convinced Barbatos to let Hazel be the castle's rat hunter, so Barbatos calls them to deal with rat problems Backstory: Navy's childhood was spent at an orphanage, but they by no means suffered. In fact, they were a leader among their peers and made sure everyone was healthy and well. When they started developing magic, they kept it hidden in fear they weren't going to be looked at the same way. Eventually, around 14 years old, Navy was adopted by two sorcerers, two dads that love them very much. The two parents were supportive through every struggle, getting help for their difficulty hearing and expressing themselves. Unfortunately, they were labelled the "weird kid" growing up in middle school and high school, but tried not to let it bother them too much. Navy's magic started becoming an annoyance when looking for a stable career as a mechanic, so they became a part-time apprentice under one of their two dads. During this apprenticeship, the other dad gave them Hazel. And then, they were dropped into the Devildom, but were by no means happy with it.

A Non-Exhaustive List of My Fiance @radioactive-earthshine​‘s Impressions of the 2003 TMNT Series:
First up--
Tumblr media
MIKEY
Her favorite
He screams in such a wonderful way.
10/10 would be friends with Bart Allen/Impulse online (where they’d talk about Star Trek, both headcanons and meta).
The cute one
Precious
GIVE! HIM! FRIENDS!
He definitely needs to hit up Roy Harper/Arsenal in New York to join his team, Titans East.
Tumblr media
RAPH
He experiences a LOT of male-bonding.
This turtle isn’t straight. (He’s masc for masc.)
Dramatic
He needs his boyfriend (meaning Traximus) around more.
While his brothers were all being traumatized in various ways during the arc that included SAINW he was off in a bike-race with a hottie on another planet.
Would absolutely swear more and probably only censors himself around his dad.
He’d be friends with Jason Todd/Robin II/Red Hood.
Tumblr media
DONNIE
The Kirby episode with him was one of her favorites.
Tim Drake/Robin III/Red Robin’s friend.
Why is he sitting on the couch like that? Sir, why did you put the couch like that before climbing onto it to sit?
He’s not straight because he sits on the couch like that. He’s not straight either.
Hasn’t made much of an impression. (Sorry Donnie, you don’t get a full 7 points.)
Tumblr media
LEO
O O F.  SON.
Ah, he’s a bi disaster.
He needs to get together with the rabbit.
Wants him to behead people more. Wants it to be a running gag that he beheads Shredder every time they encounter each other. (”Go apeshit! Do it again!”)
He needs to stop chasing Karai, she’s a bad choice. (”She’s hot, but son that’s a CHOICE.”)
✨T H E R A P Y✨
Her watching every moment between Leo and Usagi: “That’s gaaaaayyyyyy~.”
Orion (of New Genesis) would get along with him.
Tumblr media
SPLINTER
Unhealthy obsession with wanting to see him naked. (Seriously, she wants to see this rat without his robe on constantly.)
Wants to see him brushing his fur.
Is married to the Daimyo.
Wants him to have tea with Alfred Pennyworth. (Where they could go back and forth over hellion children.)
Where are your teeth? (”He’s a opossum!” -brings up google images- “Look! That’s a opossum! He doesn’t have rat teeth!”)
You’re one fucked-up rat.
Regularly quotes him as saying “Oh, you were so cute” about his sons.
Tumblr media
USAGI
Leo’s (long-distance) boyfriend
“Is he a lop-eared rabbit? If he takes that tie off will his ears just flop over?”
Ah, another disaster-bi.
A much better choice than Karai.
“You exchanged swords? That’s gay.”
“I do not want to see him naked ever.”
“Where are your teeth?!”
“Real original name.” 🙄
Tumblr media
KARAI
I have no thoughts about her-- no wait.
If I had that name I’d Karai too.
A terrible choice.
Hot though.
Needs to figure out her shit.
You don’t need NO MAN.
Tumblr media
CASEY (MOTHER FUCKING) JONES
CANADIAN????
It’d be hilarious if how he died in SAINW was something really stupid, like choking on air, or tripping into something, or choking on a muffin. Nothing impressive, just embarrassing. It’d be hilarious.
Fun to watch.
You’re too disastrous to not be bi.
I need him to handle all my retail returns.
He needs to use a baseball bat more.
Dumbass™ (because of his terrible hiding skills)
Tumblr media
APRIL
“I haven’t changed my outfit in over 10 years because I made a vow when I lost my Uncle Auggie to never change my wardrobe until he came back home so he’d recognize me!”
MOOD
You’re just as much of a dumbass™ as Casey, and that’s why you deserve each other.
GIRL, are you BARBIE? Because you have a lot of careers!
-a la Jurassic Park- SHOOT HER!!! SHOOT HER AGAIN!!!
Tumblr media
LEATHERHEAD
I WANT TO BOOP THAT SNOOT.
Wants to pet his snoot too. (”I think he’d like it.”)
Also would get along well with Orion of New Genesis.
✨T H E R A P Y✨
Deserves better.
Tumblr media
SHREDDER
wATch OUt fOr ShrEDdeR!!!
Can’t take him seriously and starts laughing every time he’s on screen.
Wants him to be beheaded constantly by Leo.
Mocks him by giving him Bane’s voice from the Harley Quinn animated series and pretending he has a fixation on cheese and shredding cheese. (”Soooomonnne! Give me the cheddaaaarrr!!! I’m so stressed!”)
Sometimes calls him Cheddar.
Desperately wants someone to call him a Kitchen-Aid attachment to his face.
Tumblr media
HUN
Hun. Hunny. Honey. (Absolutely must mock his name.)
“All the men call me Hun.”
Vaguely implied that the Purple Dragons were his harem??? (My fiance is wild y’all.)
Clearly smarter than Baxter Stockman.
Tumblr media
BAXTER STOCKMAN
HE NEVER LEARNS!!!
“I want him to call Shredder the Kitchen-Aid attachment.”
Her favorite line from him: “You’d make a horrible scientist.”
WOOOOWWWWWWW
Clearly not as smart as Hun when it comes to shutting his damn mouth.

how do ya think the octonauts crew would deal with being sleep deprived (mainly barnacles 😳) ? i was rewatching the show recently and there’s quite a few moments where they’re woken up in the middle of the night to help creatures so it just got me thinking :O
I feel like Barnacles has absolutely fallen asleep at the wheel once, which was followed by everyone yelling at him until he went to sleep. They all knew he was tired, they could tell, but he insisted he was fine (as he does), and he was not (as he never is).
Tweak is the most fussy about making sure he goes to sleep. Yes, she knows she's a hypocrite. Sometimes if neither of them can sleep for whatever reason, Barnacles comes down to the launch bay, or they both go up to the gamepod, and they play games until they pass out. Tweak also takes melatonin to help her sleep, but she takes it at a specific time, so if she misses that designated time because they're on a mission she just doesn't take them. Cue her playing video games or working on the GUPs until 4am.
Pirates are made for nighttime adventures—or at least that's what Kwazii thinks, so he'll intentionally stay awake long after he starts getting tired. Barnacles and Tweak have caught him doing this several times, and usually invite him to join their games. He's always the first to pass out when this happens. Kwazii also has a habit of sneaking out to go on "monster hunts" if no one else is awake, and similar to Barnacles I feel like he's definitely fallen asleep at the wheel doing this, in the middle of nowhere, freaking everyone out when they wake up and he's missing.
Shout out to Dashi for being the only Octonaut with a relatively healthy sleep schedule. However, Shellington loves to knock on her door just to wake her up and talk whenever he can't sleep. Peso does it too, but only if she's already awake. If he wakes her up he'll feel bad and go back to bed. It's actually hard for her to fall asleep (it takes a while), she's just good at managing it: she takes melatonin, she plays music/white noise because she can't sleep without it, she cleans and makes her bed, she has a whole ritual. She NEEDS this ritual or else she simply will not sleep. The only exception is if she's been awake for 24+ hours already and she's exhausted.
Shellington falls asleep VERY easily. Like, impressively easily—but he also wakes up very easily. He needs to turn his lab into a sensory deprivation room just to ensure he stays asleep. If he still can't sleep, the Vegimals will climb into bed with him and curl up like cats. It's very effective. If, for some reason, he doesn't want to sleep, he will go down to the launch bay or gamepod to join Barnacles and Tweak, if they're there. He's known about them doing that together since he joined the crew, and if he's bored at 2am he may just take advantage of it. One time, he and Kwazii BOTH joined them, and none of them ended up sleeping at all.
Peso preaches to the others about how important sleep is for your health, but he is more than willing to stay awake for a week straight if he's looking after a patient. He has done so at least a few times. However, Barnacles really doesn't like when Peso doesn't sleep (it's the Dad Instincts™), so he will offer to stay up for him. Usually it works, or so he thinks. Peso has a monitor in the sick bay connected to the screen in his room, it tells him his patients heart rate, blood pressure, other stats, etc. and he'll often stay awake, just... staring at it. Kwazii knows he does this, and will check in on him right before he sneaks out. He hasn't ratted him out yet, but he says he will if he doesn't go to bed (he won't really, but Peso doesn't know that).
Inkling is pretty much nocturnal. He spends so many hours sleeping in his chair during the day, that he's not at all tired when night finally comes around. On the bright side, he does enjoy the dark (being a creature whose supposed to be from the midnight zone and all that), and it's good to have at least one person awake to keep an eye on the ship, or listen for someone who needs help knocking on the door. If they're not with Shellington, the Vegimals like to keep Inkling company. They play board games and watch movies in the library, or sometimes Inkling will read them stories. He also likes to call Min. Depending on where they are in the world, it might still be daytime for her. If not, he leaves her a video message of himself just talking about stuff, or the Vegimals being silly.

Will the IDW turtles also join the GC?
Because I’m kinda curious how Jennika + IDW Turtles would react to seeing their counterparts
Other than MM, I do not plan on adding any more of the turtles unless it's in a spin off and someone holds my hand through it.
But if I were to hazard a guess; IDW turtles will quickly take the mantle of most traumatized turtles, no doubt horrifying everyone else each time one of them appear in the trauma dumping channel.
IDW talking about what they went through when they finally feel comfortable, Ronin probably seeing his own father in the IDW Splinter. Him and IDW Mikey probably have a lot of choice words to say about their rat dads during his more...morally dubious moments.
Team Cope will get to keep their name but like IDW turtles will probably be like...Team Trauma™ or I Lived, Bitch asdkjasdas
Neons comparing Hidden City with Mutant Town.
Also, not to play the same gag again but IDW Leo would not be on often. He cannot play video games, what makes you think he can use discord?
Jennika would probably feel out of place, considering there is no iteration of her. Not to mention she'd be the only human turned mutant on the server. But they're all friendly enough that she sticks around.

AO3 Stats tag game
Thank you for the tag @queer-cosette!
Rules: check your AO3 stats and answer each question with the correct fic!
Turns out all of mine are Miraculous Laydbug,,, which,,, not much of a plot twist, but yes.
Most Hits:
les illuminations en douche et d'autres miracles pubères (9,229 hits total)
Shower epiphanies and other pubescent miracles: of Marichat, emotional teenage delinquency, adults' questionable understanding of how the world works or should work, political power play, investigations, reveals, memes, half-baked meta, and the first-ever Save Nooroo Foundation (that the author is aware of). Or, simply put: canon on crack, featuring Adrien “romantic pro-gamer” Agreste, Marinette ”Schroedinger’s Very Tired™ friend” Dupain-Cheng, Gabriel “you don't need the two most powerful objects in the universe, you just need a therapist” Agreste, Plagg and Tikki “five more minutes of this and they'll be throwing hands with the Meta Consciousness for putting them here" the kwamis, and many, many more.
Main relationships: Lovesquare, DJWIFI (morphing into Chloninya), unhinged Gabenath, and team dynamics
Second most kudos:
I Know What You Did in the Cat-acombs - collab fic w/ @galahadwilder, @maggies-scribblings, and @veebeejeebies (366 kudos total)
Two part-time superheroes get lost in the creepy catacombs, but spooky skeletons, rabid rats and akuma apparitions are the least of their problems. Written for the @mlwritersguild's October 2020 Event, for the prompt 'Haunted House'.
Main relationship: Lovesquare/Adrienette main
Third most comments:
i'm just so bad at things i don't understand (20 comment threads total)
Human!AU. Tikki and Plagg are childhood friends who fell apart following a tragedy at their hometown in Normandy, but one day Plagg walks into her confiture shop in Paris asking for her help and she finds herself unable to refuse him. Working out their own ghosts is not their only problem, though, not when the son of Paris' most infamous fashion magnate runs away and collides with them. *** She regrets it. Of course she regrets it: yesterday she got blinded by the image of the boy she used to know, the one who lived on the dairy farm just outside of Saintévie with his dad and their workers and no siblings and thus no friends to speak of at all, not until he’d met her and the rest of them, at least. He was always a shadow, though, and they’d all told him as much once and he’d jokingly replied that there was only one sun he’d ever want to be cast off from but wouldn’t tell them which, and it hurts her to think he might have meant– Maybe shadows are the burns suns never get to inflict upon the land, Tikki thinks, but if they have no sun to follow, their tendrils turn into annihilating flames. Maybe this is why the fire started.
Main relationships: Plagg/Tikki, Plagg & Adrien & Tikki, Tikki & Marinette, Adrienette
Fourth most bookmarks:
well somewhere along the way in our words i must've gotten lost (45 bookmarks total)
Written for a blog request for the @mlwritersguild: Beelya where Queen Bee visits the Césaire house after Alya writes an article about her fighting Mr. Pigeon alone. Normally Chloé would like the publicity but Alya had titled it ‘The Birds and the Bees’. After that she ends up coming back to complain about her mother. And her father. And about the fact that her oldest friend seems uncomfortable around her. Her visits becomes weekly, then almost nightly. (Don’t forget to include Chloé redemption (and some “Bee Movie” jokes).) * Alya isn’t quite sure how she ended up here, in a place where she isn’t even surprised Chloé would seek her out to talk about her dad, where she wouldn’t even mind her doing so, where she would expect it, where she would– (–thud. She might be in trouble.)
Main relationships: Alya/Chloe, Team Miraculous
Fifth most words:
tried to touch you but you're cutthroat (stay to see it unfold) (4,426 words total; technically #2 in this list is the fifth longest, but I thought I'd discounted in the interest of showcasing more stuff)
If you scratch your claws against enough things, eventually everything around you's gonna give. It's not science. It's what being a Cat Wielder is. Some of them just learn it the hard way. (Or: The life and times of Chloe Bourgeois.)
Main relationships: Chloe/Luka, Team Miraculous (AU - Black Cat!Chloe and Ladybug!Luka)
Least words:
Similarly to Coco, my shortest is also a Valentines Day drabble for the @mlwritersguild event last year.
too much could be an overdose (100 words total)
Main relationship: Adrino
Tagging all the people in #2 and whoever else wants to do this!
