I Think It Would Be Funny If Blue And Simoni Dare Each Other To Do The Craziest Stuff. To The Point Where

I'm just sitting and wondering whose Casey Junior's sensei for the Mutant Mashup Au (created by me and @possumsarenice).

Tbh Future DaVinci would be the obvious choice, being the oldest and having really good ninja skills makes him good mentor material. In 2012 canon Leo is shown being good with kids all things considered so that would extend to DaVinci. Omg I just remembered Chloe. What if he trained the two and they grew up as siblings?

It'll be way more heart wrenching once Junior has to leave them behind and jump through the time portal. Chloe most likely died minuets before he did too, Junior probably didn't even realize and most likely never will. (Sorry Junior, but the turtle curse decrees that I must bestow the trauma)

Moving on before I ramble about that idea. Future Blue is obviously also a sensei, though in this au he'd probably teach Casey Junior how to be evasive compared to DaVinci, who'd focus more on attacks and techniques. Blue and DaVinci probably taught him together and thus, would both be called sensei. To avoid confusion, I think Junior would call DaVinci, Master, and Blue, Sensei.

We didn't get much info on future Splinter in the Rise movie so he most likely passed away. However, in the Au, both Yoshi and Lou would've been alive long enough to have met Casey Junior as a baby. They both died before Junior could remember them properly, but the turtles, O'Neil's, and Casey made sure to tell him stories about them. Junior calls them Grand Master's Yoshi and Lou.

Of course there's another way of looking at things. Maybe DaVinci died before ever even meeting Junior and is either called Master or Uncle as a sign of respect.

Future Sanzio's also a sensei candidate, like it or not he's a softie for little ones, and would totally want to teach and take care of Casey Junior. (Honestly though, Zio and Future Red act as Junior's dad's more than sensei's). I think Sanzio also wants to protect Junior because Casey was his best friend, right next to Cassandra, so the attachment was unreal.

Speaking of Future Casey, I wanna say he died midway through the invasion and spent a good portion of time being the world's best uncle. He'd definitely encourage Junior to commit as much chaos as possible. He was the one to take care of Junior most often because Junior was all he had left of Cass after she died. Even if the kid wasn't actually her's, Cass saved him for a reason and Casey'll be damned if he didn't make sure Junior lived through the apocalypse like she wanted. Casey probably died sacrificing himself to save a bunch of people, maybe alongside DaVinci.

Future Niccolo and Purple are terrifying, especially when making weapons. They always made weapons. It was a necessity honestly, but those two had a blast making things that blew up, consider it a coping mechanism for both of them. That never stopped, even after Nico transferred his soul into a robot he designed. (The fact that 2012 Donnie became a robot as an adult is canon has me very concerned. Especially since Red did the same in this Au).

As a (rather painful) note: Nico always knew he would become a robot in the end. Even if he was the second to last Hamato standing, Nico would've done everything in his power to stay alive. This is because he knows he needs his family and couldn't bear leaving them even if it meant he could live on and watch over them as a spirit alongside his father.

Of course, Future Simoni is up there reigning as best uncle, not the favorite because that honor goes to Casey. He did a lot of crazy stuff and gave the Kraang the most grief in fights. Simon wasn't the most powerful but he was the most slippery and pissed off the Kraang the most. The Kraang hated that Simon fought like it was nothing and took that as an insult to their power.

Ta-da! It's Kaufmo two seconds away from engaging in fisticuffs

(Opposite Kaufmo belongs to campbell_soup70 on insta)

A short add on to this, but because of both Splinter's fighting, the turtles promised each other that there would be as much open communication between them as possible. They didn't want to hate each other when they grew up like their father's/uncle's.

Mutant Mashup thingy

(This has been sitting in my drafts for months rip-)

Since all the turtles and even the Splinters and Aprils grew up in a very different environment, they would obviously act a little different. So here’s my ideas on how.

Mutant Mashup AU by me and @sillyandquest

Oldest to youngest (as said here) DaVinci -> Red -> Sanzio -> Niccolo -> Purple -> Blue -> Simoni -> Orange

Both DaVinci and Red were the protectors. However, DaVinci was more offensive and Red as was more defensive. This was because Red had to worry about accidentally hurting people due to his strength and was pretty intimidating as is, but DaVinci didn’t. So DaVinci is slightly more trigger happy and Red looks for more peaceful situations. It’s not a major change, but if they meet their canon counterparts they’d quickly release the differences. This ties into Red’s mystic abilities too, as his holograms are more shield focused then in canon. Niccolo and Orange and holding their entire families together. As said here, Niccolo would help calm his siblings and cousins down when the Splinters fought, and Orange already had a complex about this in canon. Neither of them would be able to do this on their own (with how big their family is now) so they work together to keep everyone happy (even if they aren’t).

I’ve noticed the 2012 boys are big on teasing each other while the Rise boys are a lot softer to each other (minus Blue and Purple). So I’d imagine in this dynamic they’d both be in the middle ground of their canon dynamics. The Rise boys tease each other a lot more but are still softer then canon 2012, but the 2012 are softer to each other but still tease each other more then canon Rise.

Blue and Simoni and “the face team.” Which mean Blue taught Simoni some manipulation tactics. Simoni still gets tricked by 2012 Chris Bradford, but that was because he was star-struck. He’s actually a lot better at people then in canon. Also, Blue is a lot more insecure about himself because he doesn’t have his “face man” thing to himself and feels he has even less worth :(

Sanzio is slightly better at controlling his anger because Red is teaching him some things, though he’s still angry all the time. Also, he’s a little bit nicer to his little bros because they released that there’s 5 of them and one of him.

Purple also has more self worth issues then in canon because in there, he based his identity off being “the tech guy.” But here, there’s someone else that can do tech. Also, he usually gets put in the “safer” places during missions because Yoshi was overprotective of him because of his soft-shell, and all the 2012 boys (and even the Rise fam to an extent) followed. I could imagine an episode plot where he snapped and goes off to do something really dangerous to prove himself. Maybe going with the other brothers who get babied (Simoni and Orange)

Orange canonically does ballet (see the lair games ep) so I feel like I’m this AU Sanzio would be the kind of sibling/cousin-who’s-basically-a-sibling who would absolutely pummel anyone who bullies his siblings. Also I can see Orange and Simoni both doing ballet so when Simoni starts using his strings he moves around on them in a sort of “dance-y” way.

Since Lou let them sneak off to the surface before Yoshi was ready to let them go, I’d imagine DaVinci has an absolutely unreal amount of “Space Heroes” merch.

Since Simoni can be repelled by Poka, I can imagine Purple has an entire library of “Music genres my siblings/cousins-who-are-basically-siblings don’t like.” The labs were filled with Poka after Simoni activated his mystic powers

Wooooo boy, it's been a while since I've posted anything here-

Feel free to enjoy some doodles of one of the lesser known MegaMan characters from the MegaMan MegaMix manga: Piano. (Her alternate names are Tone or Clef)

She didn't really have a huge role in the manga, specifically being created just to explain stuff to the reader and the other characters in the manga. She was ultimately cut in favor of a more natural flow for the manga.

That doesn't mean she's not interesting though. In universe, Piano was built to look after Bass and make sure he stayed in line. She's like his opposite and has no combat ability of her own, instead being in control of several gadgets. Fitting, since Bass is named Forte in the MegaMix and in music Forte is opposite to Piano.

I've known about her for a while and have seen a few posts of Piano so I'd thought that I'd throw in my own doodles. As well as how in how I'd imagine her personality, inspired by @miserymet's interpretation of the character. (You should check them out, their art style is so good and their comic's really interesting so far)

So, what's Piano like? I'm thinking quiet, polite, and small. She speaks with a soft but flat voice. I also imagine she's shy too, often hiding away to tinker with her gadgets or clean something or other at the Wily Castle. I'd also think it'd be funny if she reads Wily's diary when she gets bored, so she's sneaky too.

Forte doesn't think much of her at first and Piano tolerates his attitude, but eventually they bond over making fun of Wily's poor decisions. Maybe Forte starts to care about her little by little and Piano begins to enjoy his presence more and more. They do still bicker at times, but they do form a bond.

Honestly, even if your Caine feels regret over your Able's condition, my version of Caine still wouldn't like him. He can't quite understand emotions like Abel can, so my Caine doesn't trust your Caine very much.

The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....

With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...

Animal Tamer!!

Abel!

Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.

There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.

This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.

Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.

Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).

Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!

Why is roll Mercury's favorite?

Oh God, first time answering an ask, bear with me here.

To answer your question though, there are three main reasons. Primary being that Mercury loves getting free stuff and Roll loves giving gifts. It's kind of a shock when Roll gives him a gift, she's actually the first one to ever do that, since he's always so used to stealing from other people. Not only that, but it was a thoughtful one too, some flowers Roll noticed he liked and a couple of premium E-Tanks. Mercury wasn't used to that type of kindness and was drawn in fast.

He also just likes how chipper and empathetic she is, the stardroids are more accustomed to negativity so it's not something Mercury sees often. To him, it was refreshing to meet a genuinely good person that wants to help rather than hurt. Initially, he thought she was gullible and always tried to find ways to get a rise out of her. Unluckily for Mercury, Roll can also be a troll when she wants to be and gets back at him when he goes too far. Basically, Roll's fun to be around.

He's also kind of fascinated by Roll's kindness and positivity and deep down, he reallllly wants that for himself, but since those traits aren't physical he can't steal them away like he usually does. Mercury can mimic them, but he ultimately has to change and become more than what he was made for.

If you asked Mercury himself why he likes Roll so much he'd probably tell you the first reason I mentioned like: "She gives me free stuff." While he does mean that, I think subconsciously, he holds a deep appreciation for Roll that he either isn't aware of, or doesn't acknowledge verbally.

Had this doodle for a while and there's more but I wanna draw some of them digitally so it'll be a while.

Yes that smug expression was inspired by @aspergerasparagus

Her characterization of the cast of Finding Frankie is super funny. Especially the Lucky Contestant (lovingly called Lucky for short).

She also writes short stories too if you wanna read. Just remember to read the tags and warnings before you get into it so you don't read something that makes you uncomfortable.

New video that talks about the merch for The Amazing Digital Circus just came out-

https://youtu.be/FkXhKu80CWU?si=79rtSyV8P1qAl5D1

One scene in it also reminded me of this doodle I drew a while ago-

Surprise doodles I forgot to post!

I fully intended to just do the colors but I had too much fun shading the twinks

Oh yeah, I forgot about that theory. Not the concept I'm going for with Abel but I still think it's valid theory nonetheless.
