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!!!
they look like the 2012 boys but i swear they aren't, trust me
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
I didn’t notice this before but the way Leo flinched at the word “ failed “ ☹️
YOUR RIGHT!!!
Fuck, so that is why when I was younger I was (am) a Leo stan. Lol that explains a lot haha
Rewatching tmnt 2012 has been so wild because I remember when I was a kid, Donnie was my favorite so I thought I’d just revert back to that right?? But obviously my life changed drastically in 10 years, and I’m watching it now like “wow why does Leo appeal to me so much? Why is this obviously anxious eldest child with crushing responsibilities and niche interests that nobody else cares about so relatable??” Like OH WAIT THAT’S ME LMAO
they gave him drugs
うる星やつら
A whole comic about Leo acting like Space Heroes after he got hit in the head
Raphael being hit with a truth serum and accidentally spewing out his insecurities to his brothers while the Foot Clan tries to get information from him in hilarious ways
A mutant virus thingy
Michelangelo becoming supersmart in one story, more than Donnie
Michelangelo being wholesome in some stories
That story about Donnie changing his appearance all the time thanks to a device he created
The return of some monsters of the week that didn’t appear again the series (Not that it was a bad thing)
Raphael getting into knitting because he was bored
Raphael building a fake Spike because he misses him (sad)
One chapter that the turtles get infected with an ooze that makes them become very paranoid
Leo making a ¨B team¨ with April’s father, Kirby, Ice Cream Kitty and Pidgeon Pete to rescue his brothers
Michelangelo making a robot explode while hugging it
Michelangelo trolling Rocksteady and Bebop-
Leo befriending a nice crab mutant dude
So it looks like this chapter does confirm that All for One did feel remorse for Killing Yoichi, and we know he killed Yoichi cause it's been stated All for One killed all the past user except for the forth. Considering this is the first time we've every seen All for One cry, it's pretty safe to assume All for One, for how messed up it was, did love his brother.
What interesting here is that All for One is showing cold anger, he's crying but his face is completely stoic, and even when a bullet was aimed at his head he barely reacted. He basically shut himself down, his normal shading around his eye is around his lower face, so we can only see he's eyes. This is the closet we have ever gotten to All For One being humanised in some way.
Ironically here All for One reminds me a little of how Izuku was looking/acting during the Villain hunt arc, clearly upset but shutting down all other emotions so he was emotionless. Which is interesting cause it means AFO was trying to get Izuku to act like him when he lost Yoichi, which explains why Izuku was starting to look like a villain more specifically like a demon.
All for One was literally turning Izuku into an earlier version of himself because he knows that the version of himself that lost.
I make a longer meta on how Izuku is a "good" version of All for One and how Tomura is an "evil" version of Yoichi later, but TLDR I think AFO plan is to recreate the battle between his brother and himself but switching the roles so that he wins the battle instead.
NO BC 12 LEO WAS LEGIT EXPERIENCING PSYCHOSIS.
WE CANONICALLY SEE WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR THE TURTLES TO TALK TO SPIRITS / THE SPIRIT OF THEIR FATHER. ESP IN VISION QUEST AND AT THE END OF THE DEMODRAGON ARC.
SPLINTER'S ALL GLOWY AND STUFF AND GHOSTS IN GENERAL IN THE SHOW DONT LOOK LIKE SOLID BEINGS.
LEO WAS 100% THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD SEE SPLINTER WHEN HE TALKED TO HIM AFTER HE DIED.
BESIDES, SPLINTER TALKED TO ALL HIS SONS BOTH TIMES HE WAS IN SPIRIT FORM. THE FACT DONNIE COULDN'T SEE HIM JUST CEMENTS THE FACT THAT SPLINTER NEVER REALLY WAS THERE.

Summary:
“A great Hero will rise in these lands; it is told. You will guide the Once and Forever King to his glory and bring everlasting peace to the realm.” said the dragon—Kudo.
Izuku was perplexed. “You must be talking about someone else. And the Once and Forever King?” who…?
It could only be…
Izuku said, “Yagi.”
Kudo, at the same time—“Katsuki.”
Izuku felt his eyes bulge. Suspended in disbelief, he wanted to laugh. In fact, Izuku couldn’t help but think that this prophecy sounded like complete and utter bullshit.
Or, when Izuku, the lonely boy from the edge of nowhere, is summoned to the capital, his world is upended. His mission? Protect the brash, foul-mouthed prince at all costs, for he is the Hero who will wake the realm from her slumber… eventually.
But to succeed Izuku must hide that he has magic, unless he wanted to end up on the pyre by morn.
