it is not a new month but i am dipping my toes back in so fresh commentary (also brief SOTRP)
THAT WAS.... A ROUGH WEEK
/flops on
(/crushes I'm heavy)
sits with
im gonna do a sotrp rq to get my thoughts straight
donnie is more or less solid. he's slowly learning to be a better person but still has some very serious hangups that may or may not be addressed in the near future. he's getting rizzed up by bolin and has no idea that it's happening, just that for some reason this himbo is ok to be around
he's actually being a little more mature about things.................sorta. he's VERY. VERY gingerly looking into doing some lab stuff again, but he's not inventing/coming up with ideas/testing hypotheses. it's all very much standard stuff and like, fixing laptops or whatever. that creative spark is very dulled rn
can april help
shockingly, he's been working on communicating more clearly, though his success with that varies WILDLY from person to person and situation to situation
his little kerfuffle in the tiny raph group chat shows that he's still shit at articulating what he actually means sometimes (and also that he is not immune to making his own incorrect assumptions about what other people mean)
leo's watching that bolin development and he's gonna encourage it
Until he realizes they're both making each other worse (scientifically bolin STOP encouraging mad science)
Until he realizes they're both making each other worse (scientifically bolin STOP encouraging mad science)
encourage the science
it's good science
if its a crime to encourage following ur passion and creativity then lock bolin up in minecraft jail 
he'll do the time
he'll do the time
but nah fr egg i am on call with both boys for any of ur character needs if u have them. emotional support himbos are my specialty rn
flops on, weighted blankie style
Nerd/Himbo pairing is so powerful, I look forward to the Rizzening
comatoseroses: i just spent the last ten minutes looking up a specific pinetreevillain post for a donnie icon and i think u know which one
and if u dont u will find out in a second
speaking of, somehow realized that Tello was asking for empathy from Donnie in their last thread and I'm like "u idiot" now
Kayjayyy: i missed this UHHHH i mean i don't think so?? not any more than she already does
they can just be besties and such
he can rescue her from things and feel like he's helping idk lets just play
I mean by 'help' like just kinda 'hang out and pass him shit' ie just 'hang out and be buds while he works' mainly
OH yeah we can assume that happens tbh o/ esp since casey gifted donnie a new set of tools, he can do standard repair stuff
ye
I mean sorry yes I was specifically addressing his potterin garound with tech I WAS VERY VAGUE SORRY
for the rest of course we just play and see where it goes 
JustAshu: they BOTH thought they were way too much like each other....dumbo boys
future donnie probably got in the habit of "think about how ___ would feel" from all that required interaction with other rebels/survivors
yeeeep
cloud is going thru it but tbh has had a little bit of a breakthrough and might actually start climbing out of his depression hole soon
a little bit, anyway
he's going to be obsessed with his bf about it though so sorry to anybody dealing with that (he has approx 2 friend so i should get him some more)
i always enjoy playing cloud and tbh i never get bored of him so like, we good. i can be active with him or sit and let him ride. he's an all rounder for me that's what comes with being the OG blorbo
sorey is uhhh okay. he's been quiet because I'VE been quiet; the realization that things that happen in folkmore CAN affect back home with the whole ribbon thing scared him a little bit, i think
he's been treating folkmore as kind of a dream or vacation, but that brief moment of not having the pact with maotelus frightened him into thinking of other possibilities. what if something happens to him here and ACTUALLY severs the pact? what will happen to his home? to all the work they all did, to his friends?
he's a sweet and friendly guy, but he can actually be kind of distant when he wants to be, and i think he's justifiably a little distant lately. he wants to treat himself very, very carefully because his body isn't just HIS body
i'd like him to make friends with some more chars i don't have CR with yet, that'd be fun
s'rei i'm still shaky with this guy, and that makes me triple nervous because he's kind of an OC. we will proceed with him and see where things go
cloud tagging music is OG "listen to the cries of the planet" 
still a full banger even after almost 20 years
still a full banger even after almost 20 years
and i will be for real; the rebirth re-imagining of this track is not good. i have mostly been REALLY happy with the rebirth/remake versions of the OG songs
but not this one
OG is superior
[Video Soundtrack] Listen to the Cries of the Planet...
og on some of the tracks fr way better
my head says "new one winged angel is great and slaps" but my heart says ITS TOO FUCKING LONG, original knew not to overstay its welcome
YES
EXACTLY
10 minutes long!!! i get 4 in and go veni veni veni off
LAMVOUASDF
(highway chase in advent children still my favourite mix tho)
anyway this banger on repeat for this tag to zombie zack
lobselvith and fontech do u guys want to skip cloud for the drinking thread. OR. are both of you amenable to me timeskipping to cloud coming back with the hard shit on the table
im chill either way!
oh my GOD
this is what the OG soundtrack makes me capable of...................... /looks down at hands
CLOUD
LOVES
ZACK
LIKE
AIR
FUCK
og too powerful
/puts it on too
ff7 really puts me in my feels i will never be over this stupid game fr
latched for life like a security blanket ankle monitor
I’m chill with time skipping
o/
waiting for the "oh yeah that happens to me too my future self is here" "!?!"
comatoseroses WHY IS BOLIN SO ADORABLE
because bolin and also dani
its his unburdenedness and his duckbutt hair
the full himbocity of him
golden retriever coded before it was cool 
when he is FUCKING dumb /chefkiss
oh my god, Donnie.
fuckin bless
may his ass get thumped daily.
he's gonna get curb stomped on the regular and it's good for him
better Cassandra then who else could do it.
casey, everywhere else: please stop fighting
casey in this instance: mom can beat up whoever she wants
casey in this instance: mom can beat up whoever she wants
rip donatello
comatoseroses: every time i get a bolin tag I'm like haha wouldn't it be ridiculous if they dated right away. haha so silly. unless 
i feel u
like what if we simply leaned into the unhinged nature 2025.
like what if there wasn't any lead up and they just jumped on feet first and had the bumpiest of rides
like what if bolin said hey so I've never said this to a man or a just-a-turtle or a man hyphen just-a-turtle but do you wanna date. and then what if donnie said idk can i treat it as a science experiment?? and bolin was like......ok? and then they did
just bein silly with it
feet first is bolins whole dating vibe tbh 
"hypothetical would u date....... a guy. followup human guy. additional followup me specifically being that human guy. xoxo bolin" (delivered by pabu)
donnie looking suspiciously at pabu: ....are you leo too
valid concern
can't trust familiars
they could be anywhere
any animal could be his brother
tbh bolin sending a little "do u like me y/n" is him showing restraint considering his usual method of dating is a) sneak girl into places she shouldnt be
If leo works on getting a fire ferret form SPECIFICALLY because of this..
b.) wait to rizz until mansion is attacked (idr opal get together actually I'm sorry)
and c) become kidnapped
its a good method!!!!!
if it was a good method why isn't he wifed yet 
fate, he's meant for a turtle
he is TRYING to get wifed the universe wont listen
ur right tho. he should be less restrained
LMCFAOVF
someone get the kidnappers on the line
donnie over here like "i don't know I'm very emotionally unavailable" after bringing this boy into his house and sharing his relax game with him and building him his own world to use and mess around in
the turtle doth protest too loudly
don to his brothers like TRUST NOBODY. ANYONE COULD BE EVIL and them like 
at bolin and donnie going no not him tho
at bolin and donnie going no not him tho
"he doesnt count bc he respects my hand holding schedule"
on god that's happening now
and donnie will adhere to it so strictly and if bolin MISSES a hand holding session he's going to be so offended
oh my god
the schedule 👏🏻 exists 👏🏻 for a reason 👏🏻!!!
bolin get a turtleman breaking into whatever apartment he's in at like 2am like SO DID YOU BREAK UP WITH ME? BITCH? THERE'S FORMS FOR THAT
please tell me he'll write up actual forms for that
I am merely a background clown honking my horn, but I encourage the chaos
start dating, ""strictly for science"", fellas
breaking in at 2am is a sign of commitment and also insecurity (and being a dramatic lil bitch). its fine
bolin clocks donnie hard enough to knock his ass in the drink with that take
(yes i personally would literally draft forms)
bolin 
hes putting in his work (read: being a dumbass)
and its working
perfect science slave uhh research assistant
oh m ygod
boys
boys
nooooo casey's been fired AGAIN 
the empire is growing is all
casey is lab tech and bolin is the nepotism hire
lmfao
tmw you go into an hr meeting thinking you're getting fired and you get a promotion instead.... living the dream
(i also like how bolin is the nepo hire when casey is actual-by-technicality-family)
look
casey earned his way there is no doubt about that
bolin is SOLELY there because he has broken red flag-dar and is sorta handsome
NO ITS FUNNY
sorta handsome.... bolin protests that. he's very handsome. varrick could back him up on this
may no one ever usurp casey's lab tech position 😤
donnie: yeah i guess he's kinda good looking
bolin: i was literally the first movie star back home for looking This Good
bolin: i was literally the first movie star back home for looking This Good
(bolin is VERY handsome and donnie is tsundere)
meanwhile, leo covering peter's ears: you are so goddamn handsome, you are so far out of my brother's league, take him for everything he's got bolin
TAKE HIM FOR EVERYTHING HE'S GOT????
leo getting COCKY now that he's dating his own tech support!!!
dont even worry bolin can say he's handsome for both of them. i literally just wrote a tag where he was doing that
leo is valid let him cook
leo is invalid
he said, dating human leo.
i dunno i thought bolin was more like raph than leo
HM, point
Leo's dating socially adjusted Donnie tho.
dkdsasd
I love Bolin, such a perfect himbo
Donnie being tsundere is gonna just fly over his head
leo's gonna make a running tally to keep on hand
please, that's gonna be so funny
funny's what I'm about
once in a generation himbo imperviousness. yet so used to translating for the emotionally constipated. bolin is one of the characters ever
Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars - Die With A Smile (Lyrics)
IM REALLY IN MY ZAKKURA FEELS LATELY..............
OH....... 
love writing simultaneous growth and stagnation
(also love writing donnie completely unable to process the thought of losing leo)
Donnies coming to the conclusion that Leo made that choice because Donnie wasn't strong enough 
on the one hand "i forced this outcome by being not good enough" on the other hand "how fucking dare you choose to die who do you think you are"
the two sides of the "can't even begin to comprehend the enormity of grief" donnie coin
giving casey increasing levels of anxiety every time he opens his mouth bc he has no idea whats coming lmao
casey after 2 conversations with donnie: actually about those pills
one of Donnie's last convos with Tony was about how Tony thought leo needed weed so donnie, in a bid to avoid going back into the lab, suggests casey take a fat honk on that bobo
has an allergic reaction or something and almost dies, "wow this is still better actually"
cad still has the drug lilies...
LMFAVP
THE DRUG LILLIES....
cad like hey....little buddy......if talking to this person makes you so anxious you need medication, maybe you should chill a little on talking to him
casey, flicking his arm to find a vein and injecting pure lillyjuice: my family WILL get along so HELP ME GOD
casey, flicking his arm to find a vein and injecting pure lillyjuice: my family WILL get along so HELP ME GOD
those are for trips tho not honks
HONESTLY THO THAT IS..... HIS MENTALITY....
I KNOW
it took rue repeatedly going honey its ok you dont have to be around him for casey to be like I WILL TAKE A 2 WEEK BREAK
now theyre living together 
ALTERNATELY: MAYBE THEY SHOULD STOP TRYING TO GUESS WHAT THE OTHER GUY WANTS TO HEAR
poor casey
it really is less of a mess now tho
which is scary
but it is
donnie is being more considerate of casey and getting a better idea of how he acts/ thinks/ behaves and casey is getting better at not assuming the worst when don has his flat cold bitch tone on
theyre even recovering from hiccups better
laughing at donnie calling out (both internal and ex) that casey apologizes all the fuckin time
hiccups being Uncle Tello being an asshole now.
its him channelling my canadianess
yet another hit from the "donnie cannot deal with loss or grief" album
fontech: IT DOES ALSO MAKE SENSE
casey kinda wobbling between "it's just a courtesy thing" and "im sorry for my whole existence complicating your life" bc that was the first thing donnie yelled at him about
let's allllll agree that the screaming donnie did down in the labs was unhinged and should not be taken seriously
i mean, they sure can say that! casey's definitely trying, he's course-correcting himself. but that sort of thing is really hard to forget 
donnie did not actually answer the question of "hey do you want to kill me" and casey's at least gotten the impression with them like... collaborating... that the answer is no. but in the moment it felt very whoa, hey and that can linger when you already got the ptsds out the wazoo
but like i said, he's course correcting rofl
what if we got you some GOOD LILLY JUICE 
i mean... that's reasonable
they should just get high together
i make jokes about the lilies but it's more like hallucinogenic dreams ITS PROBABLY BAD...
they're kinda magically peaceful/quasi-prophetic, but still
donnie is in denial that he, in fact, is NOT of small emotions and in fact has VERY BIG HUGE emotions and has VERY LITTLE PRACTICE in regulating them and as a result can sometimes say some VERY UNHINGED SHIT that he should apologize for
and that's on him
donnie learn to apologize more (and maybe sometimes mean it) casey apologize less, meet in the middle somewhere...
not me looking up modern swing tracks to add to my donnie playlist bc of bolin
infected
infiltration
what if they dressed up in nice suits and danced swing
we already know donnie likes dancin
local swing dancers voted most likely to be caught saying "whatta town" i support this
SCREAM THAT'S RIGHT HE DOES SAY THAT
he's so cringe this purple
I HAVE ALSO been thinking about donnie's ninpo
i've been having it stay really weak after feb; partially because i think he like. 'pulled a muscle' after he used SO much of it and mutilated himself to do so
but i think maybe also i like the idea of him being so weak with his ninpo because of all the soul data he's still "storing"
so like, his ninpo ram is being ATE TO SHIT by all that data that he doesn't know how to purge
and that's why his constructs are so limited and why he gets so tired soon, because he's essentially using his ninpo CONSTANTLY to maintain and store that soul data (which is. so much data, per person)
i'm not sure how i want to resolve it but i'll think on it >:/a
ninpo share with casey when 
might be something olderdonnie can help with if they can tolerate each other for longer than half a second
ninpo share with casey maybe fix him idk 
i was also thinking that yeah, that future don plus casey jr are uniquely qualified to help him without him ending up plugged into the matrix again, but both those relationships are.....IN PROGRESS....so it wouldn't be anytime soon
im so ready to put in the WORK
LMFAO
i love the ninpo thing so much i love characters bonding and sharing power its like xillia2 linking and zestiria in this essay i will
that's how u bag an akai
linking powers
NINPO SHARE
God, fixing ninpo is catnip for Tello since Leon is like "my ninpo" in a thread rn and Tello is like !!!!
...did I literally just have katie drop into text in sorey's thread lmao please pretend her last tag was not in courier
GIRL I ALREADY WAS U AIN EVEN NEED TO SAY IT
I'M SO CONFUSED WHY I DID THAT
because we have like 20 threads going simultaneously with multiple chars
probably
also I was gonna offer possibly april could help unplug donnie if she ever actually manages to contact/channel karai, which I've been going to do for months and just sat on my ass about
also im so sorry to everybody waiting on other tags (esp other char tags) but i got that bolin catnip. it compels me, i had no idea this would work out so well
Kayjayyy: when u feel like u can slide back in you should TOTALLY power purchase karai powers
heck yeah
play what u want bro thats how we do in this rp world
i'm taggin the zombie zack thread bc i want to get AT LEAST THAT one out B|
me agonizing over whether or not cloud strife would use pet names
I do not play clouds but my impression is he is so adaptive that if someone else was/has been around him he's likely to reciprocate. so if they use them on him..
yeah.....i think if he knows his partner really likes them, he'd use them
HEY fontech WHAT PET NAMES DOES ZACK LIKE
GOOD QUESTION idk if hes gotten any. he had a good response when cloud called him like handsome or something?? when zack called him babe
I'm ok to handwave if u want cloud to use smth specific otherwise i am OK to stick with the occasional handsome 
i can check after work if aerith used any but i dont think so idr
zack deserves to be pet named 
basically cloud is going to catch the love of his life in his arms and hold him so carefully bc that rebound from disobeying an order gonna hit and HURT
oh is it ever
maybe worse than the jenova yank lol
resist! sephiroth can't get it together enough to really enforce orders!
they are resisting! its just owie
can't you do a dice roll on this thing
[dice]
nope not that
THAT!!
how i make that roll 
gold star
hmm
oh it does actually change
DOES IT???
Yes do it again!
8O
8D
Not sure if the first one was just a six by default but
well those are all evens so donnie is serving cunt with his date outfit then
Serve that cunt Donnie
Donnie serving cunt is needed for first dates
no it rolls you just got a 6 on first roll congrats
donnie using bestie bucks to get his outfit
HELL YEAH top of inbox page 2!!!!
please hold I don't have the icons this conversation will need
/goes to buy some
I BUY FOR YOU
i need to renew donnie's icons anyway
I ALREADY GOT THEM but now I'm mad b/c apparently my 3 bucks a month no longer gives me all my icons and I am confused about this
(I'm not mad I'm just confused)
hhhow many does it actually give now
im sending u points to buy a premium acct B|
kdfjladf
you don't need to bb but thank u <3
turns out I just have a mind like a sieve lmao. "but I onlyp ay the $3 option!" she says, checking her payment history where she's been clearly buying 6-monthly accounts all along
katie's the $3 one
yeah it wont let me buy you a paid premium acct so i'm just buying you enough points to get one urself
adksfsdf bless thank u 
...also is donnie home when he asks this question because she is immediately going to go kick his door down if he is
he's at the apartment not the lair (he's keeping the apartment also jsyk)
(he's living mostly in the lair but he's still using that apartment)
short answer for time sensitivity she will absolutely shower him in lore bling for this date but you are GOING to tell her everything and she's going to hunt down bolin
LMVOAUDSF
Donnie's love life is now April's entertainment?
it sure is 
but also she's protective in that "who is this boy you literally just kidnapped a bunch of people is this a REVENGE PLOT please let it be a revenge plot I wanna beat someone up oh wait bolin's actually pretty nice yeah okay here's a shovel this will get my point across"
literally anything about the guys april finds entertaining is within her right to get invested in
all the shit they do to her life??? she deserves it
(she also invites that kind of insanity onto herself a lot but like. in her defense she does not usually expect them to be so crazy)
exactly
question KJ
do you want april to be responsible for donnie serving cunt instead of disco dork
YES
i say serving cunt but it's not THAT cunty it's just cool/good for dancing imo
lmfao
hold up i will link and u let me know if you think it's something april would pick out
crop hoodie: 
joggers:
high tops:
bi wristbands:
joggers:
high tops:
bi wristbands:
wristbands
also the hoodie saying fresh hoops
BISEXUAL wristbands for sweatin
(this is what donnie has in mind: 
)
)
that is very much Donniecore
i know
bolin said dress for dancing and donnie like bet
disco
and april is like lmaooooooooo i have seen that guy he is too attractive for you to be wearin that. no
that link will not open for me lmao

it's got a stray ) on the end
aha!
thank u
and also GOD DONNIE NO
LMAO
april save him
yeah I think she'd pick something like that out (hte upper) purple snazzy hoodie def. great
Pops my head in here
Donnie the ninpo tho... Donnie the rammies...
Donnie the ninpo tho... Donnie the rammies...
oh my god donnie no
QUESTION what u mean she pop outside his lab??
oh she teleported in via mayhem right outside his lab door so she could slam it open dramatically (and also not get things thrown at her if she ported into the lab)
and uif he's not in there she is foiled so feel free to have him be in the living room like "what are you doing"
yeah he's at the old apartment he don't got a lab up in there o/
he doesn't go in his lab anymore (for now)
he doesn't am I remembering wrong I could have sworn he had a lab thing there from the glitter incident 
OKAY LET ME CORRECT TO HIS BEDROOM
OKAY LET ME CORRECT TO HIS BEDROOM
OHHH uhhh
tbh he probably called it a "lab" and maybe used a spare bedroom for that purpose but it wasn't really a lab, it was a normal bedroom
once he got his LAB that's his lab
got it :|b
SORRY DUDE
no way he would make designer cocaine
he wants MONEY
molly and shit
He'd have to make it PURPLE not BLUE
there we go fixed
PURPLE molly
THANK U BABE
sry for bein persnickety abt words im making sure i keep my behaviors straight for him and 'lab' is something i've been making him avoid so this makes it easier for me when i reread
not a problem in the slightest <3
this also means you're gonna have a mayhem rolling around laughing at donnie's first choice jsyk
also going back to check the glitter thread april just kicked his door open the room was not identified so I just remembered it as A Lab lmao
thanks brain
bastard cat
room where donnie resides: lab
clearly
spoilers: she's setting that fucking outfit on ire
fire*
(with ire)
SCREAM
/yoinks that image for Syn Donnie to wear to a party someday, thanks Egg
LMK WHEN U DONE
I'M DONE
tbh it is such a donnie outfit
he'd leave it unbuttoned too
like a slut
three to four buttons down
donnie that's like a third date option when you just wanna troll your new boyfriend
you ain't wearing it out now it's her duty as your bff and now apparent wingman to make sure you serve
manI just realised april picked up her fire summoning trick while donnie was comatose lmao
i gotta find some shit to popcorn now
LMFOAUDSF
every time april shows up she got some new power shit
AND YOU BLAME THE TURTLES FOR YOUR WEIRD LIFE
lmao look she's gotta blame someone and she is innocent clearly
hes sorry he failed you at the finale donnie 
HUH WHAT
lmfao i know he did good im being silly bc they didnt stick the landing
the phrasing is just kinda ow ow
watching y'all...
you did good babe
....................HUH
OH YOU MEAN CAD
IDK WHO ELSE
no he did great donnie just got scared because he don't like feeling bad because it feels BIG
WELL THAT'S WHY I WAS CONFUSED LMAO I THOUGHT U MEANT CASEY
BC I WAS TAGGING HIM TOO
lmfao
yeah cad did GREAT
I figure they can both choose the serving cunt outfit from this four foot pile of clothing she just dumped on his floor 
NOICE
lmao now I'm just trying to work out if 1) april will try to stalk him on his date to check out this Bolin guy and also enjoy donnie having a nice time and (2) if she does whether she invites someone for stalking stakeout
Kayjayyy: does april want company for this
oh god, Operation Normal 2.0?
bc leo's been Watching
HAHAHA
nothing to see here just two cute lil animals hanging out ina bush nearby, somehow with opera glasses
oh right, they're familiars. They don't need old lady costumes
correct!
april: oh my god is this how it feels when you guys do it to me
leo: yeah pretty much
april: I get it now
leo: yeah pretty much
april: I get it now
...though now I'm picturing two cute animals in old lady costumes just for the bit tbh
the REAL question is whether or not the bolin date is compelling enough that donnie doesn't check his trackers
bolin be a brolin
be engaging and distracting
they cross paths with caseybird in a tree
them: what are you doing here
casey: stalking the date
them: ??? but we're
casey: for bolin
them: what are you doing here
casey: stalking the date
them: ??? but we're
casey: for bolin
sdlkjadf
menagerie followin donnie around
donnie just checking his trackers and going WAIT A SEC
leo shaking casey's hand: if anything happens, we're keeping bolin in the divorce
THIS IS WHY DONNIE IS NEVER BRINGING BOLIN BY THE LAIR
it's ok leo's gonna hang out with bolin eveywhere else
casey too...
everyone (except Raph) befriends Bolin
raph inexplicably never crosses paths the same way future leo never meets peter
y'all stop being cowards, casey sees caduceus bi-weekly!!
lmaooo
donnie is on cloud's hit list
yeah just handwave entire friendships etc gosh
pabu is also in the tree but for unrelated reasons
look.... a lil handwaved cr between one players characters is rp bread and butter
leo's gonna strangle you donnie
nothing says he can't try again 
leo needs to accept that donnie only cares about their small existing family and let it pass thru him like water. or a fart 
or a biochemical that donnie definitely hasn't injected him with at some point for testing that leo didn't know about
that's probably definitely out of his system by now
leo voice: hey quick question why do parts of my chest glow when I'm next to a microwave when it's on?
donnie: no reason don't worry about it
donnie: no reason don't worry about it
but yeah as far as this thread goes, I'm trying to avoid leo starting another actual real argument but hm.
what's leo's big argument point
that everyone is putting words in his mouth
it seems like they're more arguing about what they SAID and not necessarily what they MEAN
and kinda now that donnie seems like he's being contrarian on purpose LMAO
- yeah
well, don HAS been talking to cad, i can feasibly have him pull out the therapy redirection/ new angle thing just by mimicking what cad has done to him if you want to change tacks
omg
please
both because that'd be neat
and also hilarious
please
both because that'd be neat
and also hilarious
leo no longer even caring about the argument anymore
just
"wait did you just therapy talk me??"
just
"wait did you just therapy talk me??"
he's been working on avoiding conflict with casey through misunderstandings so he's starting to recognize the signs so yeah if leo gets madder i could probably have donnie a. pick up on leo's agitation and b. do that
LMAO yes ok go for it, I'll do that
brilliant
donnie discovering the art of escalation results in less people yelling
*de esecalation ig
donnie to cad while ripping open his ceiling to rewire his kitchen: did you know that people have been getting less mad at me when i do that thing you suggested i do
cad: wow really
donnie: yeah i just ask them to explain why they feel some kinda way and they cool off
cad: that's so crazy
cad: wow really
donnie: yeah i just ask them to explain why they feel some kinda way and they cool off
cad: that's so crazy
cad is a gift giver, in this instance the gift hes given is communication skills
i am always so terrified that one day i'll thread with an actual physicist and look like a colossal dumbass when i do this shit but i still have fun with it anyway
hehehe look at him go
I'm already living for this thread bless you egg
can't wait for leo to drop a brain breaking bomb on him if leo has to
can't wait for leo to drop a brain breaking bomb on him if leo has to
cant wait for donnie to use the most effective weapon of them all
OH REALLY
I'll die laughing if we're thinking the same thing
say it at the same time
sincerity
leo tells don they're dating each oth- oh sincerity is v powerful actually
DATING EACH OTHER???
don will laugh until he throws up
and then leo explains it and don realizes
would he
I would hope so
but leo's holding on to it so he can pull it out when he needs to win an argument later
but leo's holding on to it so he can pull it out when he needs to win an argument later
hold on lets dig into this bc i also don't think they're dating each other beyond like. surface level stuff (peter smart scientist guy, bolin wise-cracking jock)
bolin: charismatic, good looking, well dressed guy who really thrives on validation from that one person who raised him (mako) until he starts expanding his social group while his isolated brother digs his heels in to work
(cont)
(cont)
peter: smart genius who is a little insecure and looking for validation from those he admires until he doesn't, goes along with some really not great plans others made because he wants to be useful (sorry peter, civil war was bad actually) and make a lot of mistakes bc of it
hmmm
i see your points
plenty of differences to argue/offset too tho!
i think that's where i'm at
definitely!
leo banks on the idea alone being a mental sledgehammer enough to shock donnie and win the argument if he has to use it tho
brain smokebomb then run
i don't think it'd work just bc donnie doesn't think of himself as anything like peter beyond the interest in science
he also doesn't think bolin is anything like leo bc the way they treat donnie is so different
true that 
sometimes its funny if leo's brilliant plan backfires anyway
leo why are YOU dating your bro then huh!!
lbr bolin is like. a mash-up of the hamato family minus donnie
he's got the high EQ and he's got the big of heart and dumb of ass he's got the show off jock he's got the movie star whore vibes....he's got it all
The comparisons are extremely funny, especially since Bolin and Peter are VERY different people who compliment their partners well
Both turtles need someone who will rizz them every day
peter is like
so nice good boy heart in the right place
MAYBE
donnie has 30% of that
on a good day
peter straight up not killing aunt may's murderer because he's too heroic and doesn't want to be like that and donnie like "he said no pickles" and blows someone's head off
Duality of man
only joke I can make is Peter got REAL close to murder that one time
they are two separate mans
mind donnie for peter when
real ass question
peter, struggling not to take a life:
mind donnie in peter's head: pull the trigger piglet
mind donnie in peter's head: pull the trigger piglet
c'mon, peter, get u a mind donnie
its ok if peter and donnie are in the same room and peter is struggling not to kill someone donnie will be like future BIL dont even worry about it and will murder the dude for him that's for you that's for free
that's for you that's for free
Now THAT is family love. Thank u, king
dark kermit meme lookin ass
Peter will be anti-murder and mumble about reforming criminals while bleeding out, Donnie just is like 'reform him via atomizing him, got it' cocks a laser gun
donnie like dont worry i got a cartoon ass ray gun this turns people into various vegetables and fires it and bro is a broccoli
reformed. his contribution to health so good
perfect, 10/10
Broccoli ass bitch will now behave
but first
minecraft
leo would be so glad to know donnie's got his husband's back but also DON'T MURDER???
probably. there are exceptions.
probably. there are exceptions.
minecraft, necessary
like come on if we cant murder what are we even doing here
if we cant murder what are we even doing here
befriending our enemies, allegedly
it's very easy to befriend ur enemies if you just treat the hostage situation like a hangout
that said i hope donnie turns someone into broccoli fr 10/10 usage of cartoon science powers
get the green goblin up in there
that bitch will match the name
i love....cross canon ships.........SO fucking much
i haven't had one in a long time and I'm so happy rn 
this is the song I'm picturing donnie and bolin swing dancing to in a whole cheesy montage
Do Your Thing
Do Your Thing
and now the montage music will be stuck in my head 5ever thank u
its a bop right????
it IS 
me leaning on spacemoth abt that leo tag not being able to turn off leaderhood but SO TIRED 
we should have another cloud and leo thread
we should have another cloud and leo thread
for purposes of What Is That Rock the answer is whatever's funniest so long as it's green
oh my god. yeah they do need another one. it's been a while
spacemoth: question for u. re donnie and leo "wow are we mature now?" thread. do u want to explore leo being able to make portals without a sword bc i had an idea
I'm listening
i was head writing my reply and was gonna have donnie tell leo to portal him to his location so they could have an awkward sibling hug (recalling leo's LONELY BROTHER BEAM and remembering the first time they made the bond when leo was like yeah haha I'm kind of always deperately lonely for brothers nbd)
and thought leo going "i don't have a sword with me" and don casually going "yeah you can make them without swords, try it" would be a funny + interesting way to bring it up to be worked on
omg
yes actually
yes actually
ok I'll tag the setup for that then :3
hell yeah hell yeah
puts it in my lunch box to keep safe until tonight

you two need to stop emotional terror with turtles.
we cannot
moreover i WILL not
sorry smallcloud sephiroth is absolutely the kind of person who sits there all night watching you sleep on the excuse of watching for monsters. he's a creeper.
SWEETHEART
comatoseroses IM HOWLING
bolin lives and dies by the yolo method. every day more romantically entrenched without considering... the possible quence of his conses
love him for that and we adore his bravery
bolin's so real for it
can't wait for them to be at Christmas dinner or and shit and bolin's like "could you pass me the gravy darling, my babygirl"
and then donnie pauses, takes some notes on his wrist computer, and then passes the gravy
leo immediately: who taught him that
casey, with the text name cjjbabygirl for 2 years now, sinking down into his seat: 
u gotta keep up with the times!!!!
but the full donatello will of course retain the most fondness
IT WAS YOU, LEO, YOU DID THAT
bolin to casey directly: whats your name i cant call you babygirl
bolin: does that
casey: holy shit
bolin: does that
casey: holy shit
what hath turtle wrought....
