I Can't Think Of Anything For My Version Of Able Beyond Just Him Having A Gentler Voice That's Not As

I made the grave mistake of looking up what Epic the Musical was on YouTube and now I don't know peace-

That led me to listening to Survive, a song from The Cyclops Saga by Jeorge Rivera-Herrans, here's the link on Spotify:

It's so unbelievably good that I daydreamt an entire separate timeline for the Mutant Mashup AU based on this that I lovingly refer to as, the Painful Timeline.

Like I could vividly imagine DaVinci starting the song via declaration of war against either Krang Prime (Rise Krang) or a Krang infested, Dark Armor welding super Shredder. Blue would be the one who sings the battle commands in the middle of the song. By the end, DaVinci dies with the rest of the turtles get picked off one by one, leaving Blue, Sanzio, Niccolo, and Orange left to try and fight.

If they manage to get away (Blue used his portals) I imagine Sanzio lost his memory during the altercation, just like he did during the Mutant Apocalypse in canon. Niccolo would definitely need to build a new shell for himself, as a reference to the IDW comics. Blue definitely lost his arm for very obvious reasons. Orange is the least physically hurt by the enemy (y'know, baby privileges) but he does unlock more of his mystic abilities.

The rest of the fam is up in the air but here's what I got. Lou and April live but May dies, or at the very least isn't an ally because she was engineered by the Kraang themselves to be a weapon. Casey and CJ survived, Cass didn't make it and got overrun by the Kraang.

Somehow, someway they throw Krang Prime into the prison dimension with or without the sacrifice Leo did in the movie but by then, the damage to the surface is so severe that the remaining people need to go to the Mystic City. While it IS possible for the Earth to recover, it takes a very long time.

This isn't the worst of the worse timeline but it gets angsty real quick. From Sanzio struggling to regain the person he once was, to Blue's guilt over causing this entire mess, it gets pretty sad once you think about it. That's not even mentioning Niccolo or Orange's feelings about all this, or any of the other extended Hamato family and how THEY experienced this.

Why was Shadow man so tired in that World's Unite comic?

He's so funny and for what

I saw Sonic the Hedgehog 2 in theaters last week and I loved it. I also saw Wade adopting Shadow.

I fucking love that idea but I love Rachel and Randall adopting Shadow even more.

I actually CAN'T unthink it now.

Just image: Maddie's badass sister who wasn't too fond alien hedgehogs know lives with one. Not just any alien hedgehog, but an edgy one.

Rachel: "Shadow! Why are flames painted on my car!?"

Shadow: "SHIT-"

Rachel: "GET OVER HERE!"

Randall: "God I love than woman. Also good luck man."

Jojo: "I warned you!"

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

Omg this is actually super neat!!!! The LORE implications are makin' me think.... Hope Aible gets restored someday too, I'd love to see what he used to look like and I'm a sucker for redemption endings.

What if Able was the first to get abstracted?

What if Caine had a co-ringmaster named Aible (AI-ble), but got jealous because the devs liked Aible more, so he messed with the code to corrupt him and make him unusable.

He says "The only thing I don't have control over are your minds." which means that he can't cause or stop a player's abstraction because he doesn't know how the human brain functions. But an AI similar in design to him would be easier to understand, and in turn manipulate.

What if Aible realized it only after Caine did?

What if Caine regrets it?

Is she gossiping with a gal pal or lying to your face? Guess you'll never know

One more thing about this AU that imma do here is just call the boys using their nicknames. I just like saying DaVinci, Sanzio, Niccolo, and Simoni. I think those names are fun.

Also thought of what other fun nick names the Rise boys would give their cousins.

Blue (Rise Leo): Vinnie, Vin, Cici, Vincent, Sanni D, Zio, Zizi, Nic, Nico, Colo loco, Momo, Nini, Simon and Simo

Orange (Rise Mikey): Vinnie, Vin, Zio, Sanni, Nico, Nici, Simsim, Nini, and Momo

Purple (Rise Donnie): Vinci, Davin, Sanzio, Zio, Zizi, Niccolo, Nico, Niconacci, Simoni, Sim, Oni and Momo

Red (Rise Raph): Vin, Davi, Sanni, Zio, Nico, Nic, Simon and Momo

I lied to you, they did commit a crime.

Uh-

I doodled this

Probably inaccurate but the size difference between the turtle tots from TMNT 2012 and ROTTMNT is wild.

A friend of mine recommended that I practice backgrounds and I decided to try it out with a doodle from the last player 2 au post.

Not used to it at alllll. Still though, I think it came out alright.
