Day Two Fav Episode: Fungus Humungous

Day two fav episode: Fungus Humungous

honestly there’s many episodes I love and will never tire of watching but this one has some of my fav tropes. We got characters experiencing their fears, hallucinations, awesome little mushroom guys running around!! Also the mushrooms dance solo is literally the best! Lives rent free in my mind tbh

This makes me so happy.

TMNT fan comic of the 2003 Turtles. Raphael and Michelangelo are on a couch. Mikey is sitting on the floor with his knees up, Raphael is lazily slouching on the couch on his right.
Text above them reads *Watching Star Trek DS9*
Mikey: So... why does Sisko keep calling that lady 'Old Man'?
Raph: Mikey, if you're just tryina interupt my show...
Mikey: No seriously!
Mikey turns to look at Raph, who looks annoyed to be interrupted. 
Raph: She's Jadzia Dax. DAX is like a worm alien that transfers between hosts.
Mikey: That sounds like a horror movie!
Raph: It's not, it's a consensual relationship thing. Anyway, Dax used to be in a dude named Curson, so he was Curson Dax, and he was friends with Sisko.
Mikey turns back to the tv, watching wide eyed.
Mikey: So... Dax, like, used to be a dude and now he's a lady? And could be a dude again later?
Raph: Yeah, pretty much.
Mikey: Oh, cool.
Shot changes to in front of the two. Text above them reads *An Episode Later* . Mikey turns slightly, looking a little nevous. 
Mikey: ...Hey Raphie.
Raph looks irritated again, gripping the arm of the couch with one hand.
Raph: What?
Shot changes to a view of the two from above Raph, his face taking up the whole right half of the frame. He looks annoyed. Mikey looks small sitting on the floor on the left. He's staring ahead with big nervous eyes and twiddling his thumbs.
Mikey: Do you think turtles could be like those worms? Like be a dude one day and a lady the next?
Raph: That sounds like a Don question.
Mikey turns to look at Raph. He looks more nervous now.
Mikey: No, like, MUTANT TURTLES. Like if there was a worm in me-- Wait no, if I was a worm-- No, like a turtle in a worm-- Or a worm was in a turtle? Yeah, like maybe I'm just a worm in a turtle!
Raph's gaze softens, his eyes widening.
Shot in front of them again. Raph has leaned forwards, placing his hands on his knees to brace himself. He squints an eye as he looks at Mikey, confused. 
Raph: Come again?
Mikey turns his body slightly to look up at Raph, he's places his hands on his chest as a way to gesture to himself. 
Mikey: Well maybe I'm just like. A worm who doesn't have a gender, but I'm in a mutant turtle!
Mikey turns his head back to the tv, smiling with his eyes closed.
Mikey: Maybe sometimes the turtle is a boy and sometimes it's a girl! Doesn't matter to the worm, it's still a worm!
Raph has folded his arms on his lap, leaning forwards as he looks ahead, a slight smile on his face.
Raph: Right...
Close up on Mikey from below. Raph is over his shoulder, head tilted slightly in question with a smile on his face.
Raph: Does your worm... feel like the turtle's a girl right now?
Mikey grins.
Mikey: I think so?
Shot changes to in front of them. Raph is grinning big and leaning towards Mikey, affectionately rubbing her head. He holds out the remote in his free hand. 
Raph: Alright, sis, is it cool if I put on another episode? So we can talk more about it?
Mikey is beaming with joy, eyes closed, clasping her hands together in front of her face.
Mikey: Yes please!

the year is 2003, you live in the sewers with your brothers, your dad is a literal rat, so you don't have access to a specific kind of language to understand your feelings, but what you do have is star trek. so lets just figure it out from there?

03 mikey is just so..... gender, yknow?

Day 8!! BTEAM!!!!!!!

Day 8!! BTEAM!!!!!!!

AWWW YEAHHHHHH they are the BEST!!! I love these little goobers Sm

Colored illustration of Rise of the TMNT April and Casey baking in a kitchen apartment. Casey leans against the counter holding a ringed baking recipe book and wearing a red apron and happily turns her head to the side to accept a kiss from April, who wears a frilly green apron and carefully embraces Casey's shoulders to avoid staining her with brownie batter. The kitchen itself is cozy and cluttered and indicates that it's Casey's apartment. On the wall adjoining the kitchen, hang the four ceramic masks that the ninja turtles wear in the crossover comic with Naruto. And laying on a stool next to the kitchen counter, is Mayhem, who snoozes away with crumbs on their maw.

Grandstanding Last Day of Capril Week! There's nothing more yuriful than baking with your partner and perhaps getting a little distracted UwU

Days: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Fanart For T33la’s Lovely Fic, Flipbook. Please Give It A Read! It’s An Achingly Warm Exploration
Fanart For T33la’s Lovely Fic, Flipbook. Please Give It A Read! It’s An Achingly Warm Exploration

fanart for T33la’s lovely fic, Flipbook. please give it a read! it’s an achingly warm exploration of a much-needed conversation post-SAINW, and is filled to the brim with evocative prose and dialogue. ^_^

[Image ID: A two page digital comic with a painterly rendering style. The color scheme transitions from dark blues and purples at the top to a red orange color at the bottom.

Page one: The upper portion centers a far away planet earth with clouds swirling around it. The clouds expand and show sketches of different scenes from the story. The first scene in the top left is of Donny working at his cluttered desk with a thoughtful expression, chin resting on one hand and a pen in the other. He works on a small drawing attached to a pegbar. The second scene in the top right shows a paper airplane flying in front of a dark sky. The third scene shows Mikey reaching down between machinery and pipes to grab the flipbook with a curious and somewhat awed expression. The fourth scene shows Donny and Mikey lying on the floor and hugging tightly, both looking like they're crying. The fifth scene shows a memory from the future. Mikey stands with his shell to the camera, his severed arm barely visible, while Donny stands beside him, looking back with a mournful expression. Their figures are silhouetted against an electric sky. Below all of these scenes, earth moves incrementally closer until it fills the bottom of the page. A balloon flies above it, the string twisting along with the clouds.

Page two: The bright clouds from the previous page extend into this one, crawling down the sides. The top half shows the inside of a helicopter cockpit. Donny and Mikey are huddled together, their masks pulled down around their necks. Donny leans his head against Mikey's shoulder as Mikey thumbs through the flip book, both of them watching it quietly. Below this scene, a humanoid robot in a sketchy pen style stands from a bird's eye view. It looks like the robot has been cut out from a piece of paper and pasted into the scene. It reaches out to hold the balloon string. It's surrounded by patches of grass, sunflowers, and a few large trees that frame the edges of the page. The warm color palette relays a sense of peace. End ID.]

A Kind Comment On My "Turtle Econ 101" Fic Made Me Think About How A Person Might Get To See All The

A kind comment on my "Turtle Econ 101" fic made me think about how a person might get to see all the statues mentioned in the story. It inspired this map... (Man, I love a map!) Visiting them all would be a TASK. They are pretty well scattered across Manhattan.

In order from north to south: 1) Tree of Hope (Mikey) 2) Swing Low: Harriet Tubman Memorial (Leo) 3) Joan of Arc Monument (Leo) 4) Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial (1/2 Leo, 1/2 Mikey) 5) Alice in Wonderland (Mikey) 6) Dante (Don) 7)Rockefeller Center Statues (all Mikey) 8) Needle Threading a Button (Raph) 9) LOVE sculpture (7/8ths Raph, 1/8th Leo) 10) NYC Legend (Casey) 11) Astor Place Cube/ "Alamo" (Don) 12) The Bean Sculpture (Mikey) 13) Fearless Girl (Don) 14) Charging Bull (Mikey) 15) Statue of Liberty (Mikey)

a banner for the "about" page for Splinter Appreciation Week. Banner is a dark red background with a flower pattern in light red. The text reads: Splinter Appreciation Week. The handle for the event account, @tmnt-splinterweek is below the title.

Welcome back everyone!

Splinter Appreciation Week is a fan event to celebrate ALL versions of the TMNT franchise and the most beloved rat dad, Splinter. The 2025 event will take place from June 9th to 15th, the week leading up to Father’s Day.

image reads: Splinter appreciation week
June 9 through 15
@tmnt-SplinterWeek
DAY 1 - Warmth / Wisdom
DAY 2 - Companion / Loyalty
DAY 3 - Legacy / Tradition
DAY 4 - Break Day / Promote an existing work
DAY 5 - Nourish / Poison
Day 6 - Seasons / Spirit
DAY 7 - Birth / Death

This year's prompts are

DAY 1 - Warmth / Wisdom DAY 2 - Companion / Loyalty DAY 3 - Legacy / Tradition DAY 4 - Break Day / Promote an existing work DAY 5 - Nourish / Poison Day 6 - Seasons / Spirit DAY 7 - Birth / Death

The "break day" is an experiment this year. The man behind the curtain of this account (@halogalopaghost) is an individual with multiple chronic illnesses that make events of endurance like these difficult to participate in. I want others to have the opportunity to take a rest, enjoy everyone else's work, and maybe breathe new life into something that was made last year, etc.

For participation guidelines, click here!

For frequently asked questions, click here!

Welcome Back Everyone!

Please FOLLOW and REBLOG to spread awareness for the event. It’s no fun to celebrate alone!

Part 1/2

It is always the one who doesn’t want to be near the cat that inevitably becomes the cat’s favorite. It is a universal law

I used to be so scared of my roommates cat before we moved in together, but now the little guy absolutely loves me. He is obsessed with cuddles. He lays on all my stuff. He trips me by rubbing up on my legs wherever I go. He hangs out with me all the time, it’s so cute.

Turns out my man just had a resting bitch face and didn’t want me to leave whenever I would visit, who knew lol
