mystic malfunction is on my mind again and i've been thinking about how funny it'd be if mikey hijacked a training session and taught everyone Lou Jitsu style (à la fish and ladders). ik Splinter's already been trying to make it a little more interesting for Mikey, but maybe it's the day after a particularly sour mission and he's like "yknow what? okay let's do it Orange's way today, just for a bit of a change of pace. lighten the mood a bit." the 2012 boys learn a very structured style, which is def useful (like when Mikey was fighting Shredder), but the 2018 boys are way more used to improvising and using their surroundings in non-traditional ways - particularly Mikey. i think it'd be really interesting to see how the 2012 boys would fare trying to fight in that style, and if they'd use it in future! anyway. the image of Mikey chasing them all around with an improvised household appliance weapon is EXTREMELY amusing to me, along with seeing Splinter's reaction when Mikey informs him that this was how they first learned how to properly fight. I think he'd go through all the stages of grief, but it'd definitely help him understand Mikey's lack of interest in regular training. anyway back to rotating your fic around in my mind like a microwave <3
Oh, I love this idea. Here, have an unedited ficlet I wrote in my notes app quick lol.
==========
Mikey vibrated with excitement, Splinter amused beside him while the others cautiously filtered into the dojo.
Splinter had seen how he’d struggled during regular training and after a small talk about why that might be, he’d allowed Mikey to run his own session to see exactly how the teaching styles differed. Both for Splinters own curiosity and to provide a different, more improvised kind of training so the others didn’t fall too much of a routine.
“So, how many different death traps are in here?” Raphael asks. Michelangelo is attempting to hide behind him but Raphael keeps pushing him away. “And where is one of them so Mike can be distracted by something else—“
“No death traps!” Mikey confirms. The others still look around cautiously as they come to stand in front of him. “I’m gonna show you the kind of training I got from Dad back home!”
The turtles share a disbelieving look, glancing towards Splinter who merely nods in confirmation.
“That’s…great,” Leonardo says slowly. “I suppose we could spice things up a bit.”
“You betcha!” Mikey exclaims. The turtles share one last confirming glance with Splinter before falling into their training stances and pulling out their weapons.
Mikey’s grin grows. “Nuh uh, nope,” he says, rolling onto his heels and thoroughly enjoying their confusion. “Won’t need those.”
Splinter turns to him in curiosity while the other look on in slight terror. Regardless, they lower their weapons to the ground in front of them and wait for Mikey to continue.
Oh, this is going to be fun.
—————
“That’s not how you use a toaster!” Donatello screeches, lunging away from the flying toaster Michelangelo threw by the cord like a flail.
“That’s exactly how you use it!” Mikey encourages from the sidelines. His alternate sends him a bright thumbs up before his head is promptly smacked to the ground by the lamp Raphael wields.
“How on Earth are you still alive if this is how your Master Splinter trained you!?” Leonardo exclaims, hurriedly blocking Raphael’s next lamp strike with his couch cushion. “This isn’t what training is supposed to be!”
“Sure it is! You just have to get creative! I don’t see Michelangelo complaining!” His alternate groans from the floor and he immediately backtracks. “Not about the training anyway!”
The chaos quickly resumed with Raphael going on a rampage with his lamp and the others scrambling out of the way with their other improvised weapons.
Mikey beams up a smile to Splinter who pinches his brow with eyes shut tight, taking deep breaths.
“I…understand your frustration with my teaching methods, now,” Splinter grumbles, watching with tired eyes as Raphael gets a whack to the face from Leonardo’s cushion.
Mikey launches to his feet, not being able to help himself anymore. Without any warning he grabs the closets of the many household items he gathered before starting. His hands adjust around the pens he grabbed, fashioning them into claws between his fingers, before jumping into the fray and straight towards a panicked Donatello.
They’re nowhere near prepared for all the razz-ma-tazz he’s about to unleash.

Hehehe ❤️
hiiiiii so i had the thought that the voice similarities between the shows is probably going to be inverse, right? like, when mikey gets back to his dimension, he'll get stressed around his dad because he'll hear tiger claw in him, and when they meet their shredder he'll feel confusion hearing master splinter in him, yeah? also a question, are there going to be instances of other characters' POVs, like how we got snippets of 2012 donnie's and raph's POV ?
Yeah that’ll be about right, ESPECIALLY with the Tiger Claw tidbit. He’ll still get unreasonably anxious whenever his dad sounds upset/angry/cold when he gets back, and it’ll get better but won’t ever completely go away.
He’ll also get taken back by the Shredder situation but he has a better reaction to that. There’ll still be hesitation to attack that his brothers do not have but it’s much easier to push through. Might eventually get angry that another familiar voice is going to be tainted for him and fight HARDER against him.
There probably won’t be other POV snippets (at least I don’t have any planned) but we’ll see, this story I don’t have planned out as much as Mystic Malfunction so we simply have a VERY base premise in my mind and I’m rolling with it and adding things along the way that work. Like the thing with the rainbows? Yeah that just kinda happened naturally but it fit so well with the arc Mikey’s going through in this I made it a reoccuring theme and named the story after it lol
(If yall don’t know what I’m talking about with this ask here’s a link to a new story [aka brainrot] I started. The one shots are still coming I’ve just been…sidetracked haha https://archiveofourown.org/works/56702527/chapters/144139474 )

THeYrE bRoThErS aNd tHeY lOvE eAcH oThEr, Your Honor.
His bones may be broken, but his heart? So light
Can you tell ive been listening to this ost
Just… gimme a minute… y’all. These two need to have this conversation. These two have gone through so much and to see this drawn so beautifully AND with a written snippet just ugggggg my heart.
I need a hug yall, these feelings getting too intense to keep dealing with by myself 😆😅😭💔💙✨
The hologram of his loved one sizzled softly in silence till the blue light disappeared, leaving the stars twinkling sadly before them. Casey can only feel his throat closed up with a choking sob yet no sound comes from it but the gentle sniffles of grief. Grief, he almost laughed, grief is supposed to be something that happens once in a while yet for him it’s everyday, for him it’s Master Raph, for him it’s Master Donnie, for him it’s his loving mom, for him it’s Commander O’neil, for him it’s Master Michelangelo, for him…it’s Master Leonardo, and now everyone until he is the only sole evidence his world exists. He doesn’t want to get attached to this world, to the people who are still living, and breathing and so alive because inevitably- they will disappear, just like everyone who he loved in his life. “You know…” the young Leonardo spoke uncharacteristically, without charisma, without energy, without anything that made Leo Leo. “I don’t know what it’s like to lose everyone in one day.” he whispered, the turtle’s hand still holding onto Casey in a reassuring manner with his gaze still stuck on where his holographic future-self used to be “But I know what it’s like to grieve.” he chuckled tiredly, Casey could only lean close yet he still refuse to look at Leo “There was this line dad said when he finally opened up his trauma to us.” a silent pause took place for a moment, until he continued “There is a type of love that is only experienced through sadness, and a type of joy that is only experienced through grief.” In the cold wind and the gentle lullaby of twinkling lights, his eyes slightly widen. “Pain is the price that we pay for love, and the only way to not feel pain is to never feel love.” Casey finally looked at Leo, his sole reason on wanting to get rid of these fond feelings when he sees this worlds’ family, the feeling of where Raph will teach him how to wrestle, where Donnie will rant about science, where his mom will call him into crazy adventures, where Mikey will make him eat different types of food, where April will teach him about the outside human world, where Splinter will let him watch TV with him, or where Leo will make so many bad and cringey jokes. Where everything made Casey so happy. “But love is what makes life meaningful, so don’t stop loving Casey.” “Because we sure hell will never stop loving you.” Casey felt safe arms around him, hugging him in such a familiar way it made him finally burst. To cry out how unfair the universe is to him, how unfair that he has to grow up in a time with no rest, with no moment of clarity, with no moment to tell everyone he loves that he misses them, he misses them so much. Leo didn’t say anything anymore, yet his soft hums will tell Casey- ‘I’m here, we are here, we will not leave you anymore.’ And for a moment, and maybe tomorrow, that would be enough for him to keep on smiling, to keep on being genuinely happy, to keep holding on. ‘Anatawa Hitorijanai.’ He could hear Master Leonardo whisper to him. ‘Anatawa Hitorijanai.’ ———————————— (some lines here are from Cinema Therapy because those guys can make me cry like a lil bitch, so anyways, we need more angst fuel for my boy Casey cus my man needs to reach his angst potential like our turtle bois >:((( )
(I also apologize if there is typos, its been long since i ever type a long ass story!!)
First things first, Y E S *slams hand down on table excitedly* NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL WHOLESOME FAMILY ART🙌🏼🧡✨🤌🏼
Second @saspas-corner, @holydoncakes @anobodyinabog *bear poses* If you didn’t want to be assimilated into my found family, you should have ran when you had the chance 😏😈😎
I have no context for this
Obviously because he needs to learn how to “clean up” his life duh 😏👉🏼👉🏼😆💙🙌🏼
Your au has turned into washing powder
THEY TURNED OUR PEEPAW INTO WASHING POWDER
I’m healing reading this 🥺🤧💙❤️🤌🏼✨
My heart thanks you @signanothername bless you hooman 🙏🏼🧡
Hey so remember this comic Yeah here’s a continuation, me and @intotheelliwoods are on war as to how we can break each other’s hearts, and in turn break yours too :)
anyway some notes cause this is full of headcanons
1- i like to believe Leo completely lost his ability to use his powers and tap into his Ninpo after Raph and DonDon's death, due to the emotional strain he suffered (going by the theory mystic abilities are heavily connected to emotions) unlike Mikey, Leo doesn't know how to deal with his bad emotions, simply ignoring them, and it just resulted in him losing his powers after so much emotional strain (i literally rambled about this on insta a while back fghjklsdfgh)
2- i like to believe Mikey learned how to absorb emotions out of people if that makes sense, u see Mikey holding Leo's face during their entire talk, Mikey was using his powers to absorb Leo's bad emotions, so that Leo can feel better
that's what the blue energy in Mikey's hands are, Leo's pain and sadness, and that's why Leo seems to actually open up instead of deflecting the convo with a joke or two, cause Mikey's powers made it impossible to do so
doing that however leaves Mikey to feel that pain and sadness, and generally speaking Mikey never does it unless as a desperate last measure, as Mikey prefers that his family open up by themselves instead of the influence of his magic
3- you see Leo calling Mikey "Mike", i like to believe the brothers use certain nicknames in certain situations, in this case, Leo uses the nickname "Mike" as a "i'm really not in the mood, this is serious", its very rare for Leo to use "Mike" outta all nicknames for Mikey, and Mikey hates when Leo uses that particular nickname cause he knows it's bad when Leo uses it, hence, why he resorts to absorbing Leo's bad emotions
4-ok so you see by the end that Leo gets to hug Raph one last time, this is Mikey's doing, Mikey's sharing his own Ninpo with Leo so his big bro gets to say goodbye to their eldest brother
moral of the story? Mikey's cool as fuck
*slams hand down on the repost bottom with a wild gleam in my eye* I will reblog healthy hard conversations till the day I die and YOU CANT STOP ME
Ep. 2. "The calm before the storm" Previous episode Masterpost So, here is the starting point... Raph got angry at first… But Leo drove himself as hard as he could, so even moralizing was not needed here
Ok so like my friend told me that something is considered good because it moves you. Well friends…*deep deep inhale* I’ve been FrIcKeN moved by this entire comic.
Like this is just so rawly human?! And I am literally transported into this world through perspective (Empath skillz is that you?) It hurts in a good way because I literally feel like I’m there and all the characters are so in character?!
I’m just sitting in my car trying to figure out the words to express my awe at this level of skill and talent, but once again words fail me so
@2aceofspades please take my humble keyboard smash to show my appreciation for you blessing my eyes with this today. *clears throat* sudbwudhevwodbdhsixnrjekznfjslsmdbe😭🙌🏼🤧
Y’all please read dis. It’s that good.

Your feedback is appreciated 😊
I love drawing Alejandro, he’s such a fun character, love my trans baby. 🏳️⚧️✨Third favorite child.
(I know the skates look ugly I’m not good at drawing shoes.)
Concept art as proof I have no idea what I’m doing.
(The children for reference)
Casey jr concept art so far. I like the design but it doesn’t feel like Casey yet, will work on it more later.

Helppppppp :"D
I notice, that which type of turtles is important to them. Mikey is box turtle, it helps highlight moments when he scared or helping in a fight.
Я заметил, что то, какой у черепахи вид, очень важно для них. Майки коробчатая черепаха, что выделяет моменты, когда он напуган или помогает в драке
Raph is biggest and it helps protect his bros(and, of course, hugs oll of them in the same time :D).
Раф самый большой, что помогает защищать его братьев (и, кншн, обнимать всех их одновременно)
Donnie softshell and he need to create something what can help him protect himself and it highlight his genius.
Донни мягкопанцирьный, это заставляет его создавать что-то, что поможет защитить его и выделяет его гениальность.
And Leo… I can’t find reason why is Leo red-eared help me pls :">
А Лео... Я не могу найти причину, по которой Лео красноухий, помогите, пж :">
