Can You Believe She Ran Away From It All?

Aaaaaaah! I'm really curious about a lot of things, but if you'd rather avoid answering some feel free. First, what are Shigaraki's thoughts on Izuku? Because if I were Shigaraki I would be truly terrified of Izuku and what he's accomplished, because how is it that a boy, a peasant, has achieved that level of influence with his knights, knights who are supposed to legally serve the King, and they left him escape?? And how did he manage to get Katsuki, the boy he's molded since childhood, to turn against him, something that hadn't happened before his arrival. This speaks to two things that Shigaraki is going to have to think about, one that Izuku is a danger to his position and two, it shows how fragile his influence is.

Second, what did Himiko feel when she saw Izuku pull out Blackwhimp? What I mean by that is, was she scared or did she see something the others didn't? Since she tried to divert attention from Izuku and the others. Although maybe it's simply because she didn't want them to find out.

Finally, something that's been on my mind. When you write the interactions between Izuku and Katsuki, do you think Izuku replicates Katsuki's little tics and gestures? and vice versa. Since they both had pretty lonely childhoods.

Oh! And I almost forgot, I wanted to recommend a song that reminded me of the boys, it's called "Impacto" form 'Enjambre' because this is the first verse:

"Those crossed arms

And that angry frown

Have me intrigued

You intimidate me, what do I do?

And if you take one step, you make me cry

And if you walk any further, I'm going to hit the ground"

IT'S LITERALLY THEM! 💖💖💖

Also this is me 👇, after reading about Izuku living Camelot 😍🥺💋

Another fun ask from youuu 🤩 my day is made.

On Shigaraki’s thoughts on Izuku:

lemme tell you rn, that man did not even KNOW Izuku’s name for the majority of the fic.

BUT. And it’s a big but.

Even before chapter 20, Shigaraki absolutely HATES Izuku. Because he still remembers being immobile and having Izuku clothe and feed him (before he completely succumbed to hellebore). Imagine: this prideful man having his entire life in the hands of this… boy. Who he later finds out saved him. Even if Himiko did nothing in chapter 20, he would have found a way to get rid of Izuku out of sheer spite. Now this is made 100x worse by the events of chapter 20. Izuku stands up to him because he knows that Himiko and Katsuki don’t have the strength to, but by doing so he gives them the strength that Shigaraki stole from them. And shigaraki would see it as theft: theft of allegiance, theft of his knights, of his power. Yeaaaa he wants to beat that boy up.

By the end of act 2 Shigaraki doesn’t have his closest advisors, his knights’ loyalty, his fated trump card (Katsuki’s) love, and the daughter he is obsessed with (Himiko): all seemingly leading back to Izuku. He is completely exposed and therefore can’t think strategically. He’s thinking emotionally, basically begging his knights back.

(Also, Izuku was about to kill that man LOL so it’s reciprocated).

Re: Himiko’s thoughts on seeing black whip:

so glad someone asked bc I have Feelings™. Imagine you’re Himiko and you have exactly ONE second to reprocess every single interaction you have had with Izuku with this new, very crucial piece of information. Every time Izuku comforted her about her powers, or confronted her. Every time he let her feel like she was alone. But also every time HE was alone, and didn’t confide in her. I think she felt very conflicted, bc there was so much to think about (and in this moment SHE feels sorry for HIM, just as he did for her), but also he was about to lose control.

In the end, I don’t think she forgave Katsuki and Izuku for saving Shigaraki. But, instinctively she stopped Izuku from killing him and saved Shigaraki (why? I’ll leave that up to interpretation).

(For funsies I like to think what would’ve have happened if Izuku DID kill Shigaraki, in front of everyone. And Katsuki’s reaction during and after: in the knowledge that his friend just killed someone, and Izuku did it for HIM. Hehhehe so fun, bc Katsuki would ofc stick by him).

Re: Izuku imitating Katsuki,

OMGGG yes, I totally think he does! I hope to bring this out more in the separation as a form of missing someone, and wanting to feel close to them. I think tics and mannerisms are right, but also deeper personality mirroring. Izuku was extremely passive before Camelot, but I think by being around Katsuki he’s become passionate, assertive and more confident.

And the song rec!! I’ve listened to the song before but just to vibe. And oh my god, when I translated the lyrics it hit me in the chest. It is just soooooo them, thank you for recommending! Going on my golden slumbers playlist ASAP.

I’ll give you a rec in return: although I don’t have a specific song that is my fave, I loveee Florence + the Machine for this fic: the general whimsical, fairy tale vibe is sooo on point. Her song My Boy Builds Coffins inspired the boat conversation between BKDK in chapter 16.

okay mom we get it stop nagging

Ever since the ROTTMNT movie came out, I've been pretty obsessed with the 2012 and 2018 TMNTs, I love both versions and I love the personalities of all the turtles.

So when I went on the internet with the intention of reading some crossover fanfics between these two versions, it filled me with great sadness to see people writing about how "abusive" the 2012 brothers are and how "healthy" the 2018 brothers are.

Me personally I don't see the brothers from 2012 being abusive, as their interactions remind me of the ones I have with my friends, who are almost like my brothers. When I saw your TMNT fanfic where you didn't drag the 2012 turtles through the mud just for having different ways of loving other than physical contact, I was filled with a lot of emotion and affection for your work. I think what I like the most is that you include more action. LITERALLY the ninja turtles is action with plot, it is the best of the franchise definitely.

Chapter 8 is so close to being done ADHD please just let me write I want more nice comments!!!

i've read one too many fics about leo not making it back from the prison dimension

This is enough doodles for an art dump right

うる星やつら

they look like the 2012 boys but i swear they aren't, trust me

Teenage Mutant (not so) Turtles!

they are still ninjas but it just doesn't roll of the tongue as well

these designs are in no way final and the ref sheets i made a while ago reflect that

they looks so stupid, geez, I'm sorry i made them all half asian half latino because I'm latino, and they aren't exactly human either but close enough, yeah? enough to tag this as "human au" lol, more info under the cut!

I made these boys once when i the first thought of "if Leonardo was a human he would tie up his hair with his mask tails" and it escalated so quickly- It's also most similar to 2012 because that's the series I'm most well acquainted with!

In these AU the guys are BOTH yokai and mutants, so they can shape shift into humans! the mutation affected their "true" turtle forms to be humanoid and their human form traits to be more close to splinter, whom i have yet to settle on a design for, lol sorry.

i have so many doodles of these fools so here, have at them.

yes, raph and donnie are the "b team" in this au-

this casey design isn't the current one but his war paint is still there

these last two are a little more recent
