Flaky He/him Beam Attack

Hello! I was scrolling through tumblr and came across your Tmnt 2012 Tokyo Ghoul au and first off this au is very intriguing yet equally horrifying to say the least. Seeing as the turtle's eyes seem to change and various other senses changing after they become ghouls..I wanted to ask if that affects more than how food tastes to them. Like do the way they percieve color or even touch change in any way? I'm really curious about this au.

Thank you!! I'm very happy you're interested :3c

For your bit about the eyes going all black and red (that's called a kakugan), I would it doesn't exactly affect their vision too much, but it does heighten their senses (which are already improved already thanks to the ghoulification) and sight is a sense, so I guess it technically does

I wouldn't say touch is different, but given how it's semi-related I will mention how a ghoul's skin is a lot tougher than average, to the point that trying to stab one with a regular kitchen knife would just cause the blade to break instead

If you have any more questions and wanna know more, feel free to ask!! :D

I keep forgetting I made this

I really hope Tumblr doesn't have a problem with this.

ANYONE KNOW THIS SONG? I saw this trending on TikTok and couldn't think of anything better. (This isn't part of my Au Mutant Apocalypse, it's part of what I consider... canon?)

You know, sometimes I think someone should tell Leo that it's not a good idea to throw your siblings off a really tall building, even though it was a desperate situation.

Something tells me Donnie needed more than an ibuprofen...

OK so lemme just—

I know this seems like a wild take but I stick by it. On the surface Raph and Shredder may seem very similar but I truly think Donnie has a bit more in common with him instead

The only thing Raph and Shredder have in common, to me at least, is rage.

Rage isn't all who Shredder is. Rage isn't all who Raph is either, but their anger is different. Raph's more emotional in his anger, more reactive. If someone pisses him off he shows how he feels immediately. He's not the type to bide his time and form a plan. He's also not a very good leader, as seen when he froze up in New Girl in Town.

But Shredder is.

He's cold and calculated in his plans even when blinded by rage and seeking revenge. He's extremely cunning and dedicated to his goals and will stop at nothing to achieve them, even if it involves taking the life of someone who's wronged him, no matter what anyone says or what he has to do.

So, does that remind you of anyone?

Out of all the turtles, Donnie, as far as I know, is the only one to have an arc that revolves around him trying to kill someone out of revenge for a past incident and having to be taught otherwise. Leo hasn't, Mikey hasn't, and Raph hasn't either. From what I know, it's only been Donnie.

And of course I can't talk about parallels without bringing up the love triangle between him, April and Casey.

It's obvious that Donnie doesn't like Casey at first, because he's jealous. Jealous because of his feelings for April and towards himself and how Casey manages to tear everything apart. He saw him as a love rival and feared for the day that April chooses Casey over him, so he lashed out.

Shredder was jealous because Tang Shen chose Splinter over him. He was consumed by his feelings and lashed out as well, although he had more fatal consequences.

Thankfully the love triangle never got to the point of murder obviously, but Donnie and Casey very much fought a lot because of their affection for April, just like Shredder, Splinter and Tang Shen.

Admittedly a lot of this is a reach and maybe a bit surface level but I've wrote enough and figured I should get this off my chest somehow °3°

I'm kinda in the mood for some 12! Donnie angst so I wanna get the ball rolling by mentioning how I think he has more similarities with the Shredder than Raph does :p

…I’M SORRY.

ARE YOU REALLY JUST GONNA DROP THIS IN MY ASKBOX AND WALK AWAY?

I'm honestly really hooked on the idea of the rise turtles hosting another lair games where the 2012 turtles get to participate

It could be like, team 12 and team rise, and occasionally teams are switched to pair with their counterparts. More players also means more events so the 12 boys could even suggest a few games to even it out

HELLOOO I just realized I wasn't following you yet

:3 *grabs you*

i never thought i needed raph cosplaying alice until i got raph cosplaying alice

I thought you didn't like RiseSplinter?

I’m not his biggest fan, no.

I wouldn’t really call myself a fan either, tbh.

But I shouldn’t have to be a fan to understand him.

I feel like I can truthfully say “I don’t like the way he neglected his kids” and “no matter what he loves his children and would go through everything all over again for them” in the same sentence.

You don’t have to be a fan of someone to empathize with them.

He is beautiful he is perfect he is everything he is Mikey

It kills me to watch the 2012 TMNT boys eat pizza because sometimes they don’t even chew it. They basically eat pizza like:

Step 1: open mouth

Step 2: insert pizza

Step 3: swallow

Like, my guy, TAKE A BITE! Savior the flavor! You dumbass turtles are going to choke!
