How Da Heck Did I Not See This???? That Looks So Good???????

(( TW: flashing lights/colors! )) “his whole life, donnie felt like he wasn’t wanted anywhere. he never knew there would be someone, a family even, that begged the world so hard for him to exist 💖”

finally finished the twins hug animatic :sob: i did my best to finish it in a day but it took more than 24 hours hAHAHA- i’m so sleep deprived now- but yeah, this is a condensed, more emotional version of what happens in a future episode. think of it as an alternate version uwu donnie’s arc happens around christmas time so i thought this song would fit an emotional moment in the story.

hope y'all like it! 🥺 and i wish someone would give you comforting hugs for the holidays 💖 • ❌ TC*ST DNI ❌ ( 🌿 please do NOT repost, edit, trace, use, and/or sell 🌿 )

Took a short break from Megaman to draw a character I always loved the look of.

Her name was Silhou the Wildcat and from what I understand, she was the prototype for Blaze the cat, who debuted in Sonic Rush. Blaze's backstory in that game was that she's a princess of a kingdom called Solenea and she guards the Sol Emeralds.

Blaze is also, apparently, an alternate version of Sonic himself? I guess that explains why Silhou looks the way she does, and I really like it. I think she looks so colorful and pretty. Personality wise, I think Silhou was meant to be much like Sonic. Carefree, cool, adventurous, but also being reckless, impatient, and overconfident. I headcanon that much like Blaze, Silhou also has fire powers though they're far more dangerous than Blaze's since they're so wild and burn hotter.

Going off on a tangent here, it's likely because of her destructive power and untamed spirit that she was exiled from the kingdom. Her family probably didn't appreciate her casual nature and wanted her to act the part of a princess which felt suffocating to someone like Silhou. Even if she wasn't exiled, she probably left of her own accord since what was expected of her didn't align with what she wanted out of life. Plus, her powers are very dangerous and like Sonic, Silhou cares deeply for the people around her. She probably left both because she wanted to see the world but also to protect the kingdom from getting swallowed up in her flames. Either way, the result is the same. Silhou is not a part of Blaze's life growing up and left almost nothing aside from old pictures for her family to remember her by. Blaze won't know who she is, but Silhou is smart enough to connect the dots should they ever meet.

Along with Silhou, I also know of another prototype for Blaze that most fans know already.

ProtoBlaze! She doesn't have an official name other than the ones fans give her and her story is nonexistent since I believe she was made early into Blaze's design process. I've seen someone name her Ember, which I love, and I've also seen someone liken her to Shadow and align her more towards his story. I like a lot of this, but I've got an idea of my own that I'll just put down here:

Silhou and ProtoBlaze are in fact one in the same. ProtoBlaze, who will be called Silhouette from this point onwards, is an additional form Silhou takes when her emotions become too much to handle. Kind of like Dark Sonic, only the difference is that Silhouette lasts much longer and her fire powers become that much more deadly, being able to burn through anything. Thankfully, it takes a lot for Silhou to reach this point so Silhouette doesn't usually appear.

Eventually, Silhou comes to accept Silhouette as part of her and over the course of her life Silhou becomes able to temper the dark forms flames, using them to achieve her goals.

With that final thought, enjoy these doodles:

They finally decided who was the older brother

Possibly one of the very few times I try drawing a dramatic pose and it's for a gattling gun with limbs.

Ma boiiiii✨✨✨

Thank youuuuu. I was happy the first time I saw the drawing but THIS-

I did a colour version for my able, @sillyandquest able, and @sm-baby able.

God I haven't been able to draw anything these past few months, life keeps uppercutting me with reality checks left and right. Glad I'm able to doodle more player 2 au.

Nothing too special, honestly it's just more redraws of X and Zero but with Rock and Roll in their place.

The more and more I draw, the more I can't help but imagine this story and what this version of Megaman and Roll can do.

Here's some extra doodles I might do digitally under the cut

Poor laddies, they need assistance.

The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....

With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...

Animal Tamer!!

Abel!

Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.

There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.

This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.

Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.

Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).

Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!

hello beloveds ☺️

Mutant Mashup post this time around, it's been a while 🎉🎉🎉

Anyway, I've been thinking about the missing sisters from rottmnt. Technically they'd also exist in the Au and I have some headcanons for why they'd be older than the boys. Includes a LOT of thoughts about what their inclusion means for the rest of the Au

Lots of words below the cut, but also some Mutant Mashup doodles as a reward for all the reading

Draxum is a scientist, so that would mean that he probably had some experiments with the ooze before the Hamato's. Probably meant to test if it was safe or not. Maybe he got his hands on some left over DNA from Lou or Yoshi and afterwards just decided that it was better to have the actual humans present.

However! If Draxum did mutate the girls before the boys, then how did Frida end up with Big Mama? How did the other sister (she never got a name but was most likely named after a female artist) end up in a whole nother dimension? Draxum doesn't seem like the kind of character to just give away his experiments, or view them as just weapons (that's also not the kind of character I want him to be in this Au). He may not be the best person, but he does genuinely care about Yokai and wants the best for them. That would extend to his creations, especially if they were indeed animals before they became mutants.

So what happened to the girls? Since they were likely mutated before the Hamato's entered the picture, Draxum likely kept them while they were still small. Of course, tiny turtle tots getting into trouble is nothing new. Maybe they got into some portal shenanigans, leaving the unnamed sister to be whisked away into another dimension while leaving Frida in the streets of the hidden city to be found by Big Mama.

It's also possible that the girls were separated during Lou and Yoshi's escape. There was a lot of noise and panic that would have scared both girls into doing everything they could to escape.

Either outcome leads to some great story potential for Frida and the lost sister. Definitely leaving some unresolved trauma for Frida and would explain her serious yet subservient personality. She doesn't want what happened to her sister happen again, but doesn't trust herself to make her own decisions for fear of it happening again. When she finally gets to know the Hamato's properly and comes to trust them, Frida spills the beans and tells them about their long lost sister. What she was like as a child and how Frida sent her away, it was an accident of course, but Frida still holds a large amount of guilt and self loathing. I'm debating whether Frida should be the older of the two because of this story line.

The missing sister's name is also up for debate but it was confirmed that she was named after a female artist like Frida was. Artemisia, Angelica, and Sofonisba are some of my picks but I'm leaning towards Sofonisba for the sole reason of the woman being from the Italian Renaissance. Lou would've known that the Renaissance era was Yoshi's favorite period in art and would've picked a name from there to honor Yoshi. I'll call her Sofonisba or just Sofo, it's a hassle typing "the unnamed/missing sister" all the time. The other names are still great picks though.

So, Sofonisba was stuck in another dimension and was described as "kooky" by the writers, not a lot to work with but it's what we got. Going off Frida's mistake, Sofo probably doesn't have a lot of memories of her childhood beyond Frida and maybe small snippets of Draxum. She has gotten comfortable in the dimension she lives in, even if it's a little dangerous. I don't wanna say that she got stuck in Dimension X, but that would be just the kinda place for her to go to. That also leaves room for Sofo to relate to Mikey and Blue to an extent. All three of them were transported to another dimension and had to deal with foreign entities trying to kill them constantly. Unfortunately, with the time dilation, that wouldn't be possible. Sofo would likely outlive the family if they did manage to figure out she was stuck in Dimension X.

Maybe instead of Dimension X, she got sent to a very similar one? We could also get rid of the time dilation in Dimension X entirely. It kinda removes the Savage Mikey episode from TMNT 2012, and the baggage of implications that comes with that, but that could lead into a different story beat. Reminding Vin, Zio and Nico that Simon IS capable on his own and doesn't need to be babied or treated like a responsibility. That might spark some resentment from their cousins, specifically Purple and Orange, who are also treated as more delicate to varying degrees.

Anyway, back to Sofo. I'm unsure of what to do with her character, but I do have an idea. Taking a bit of inspiration from Puss and Boots for this one, what if she was a thrill seeker at heart? She loves adventure, is a good fighter, and comes off as a little cocky sometimes. But underneath all that, one thing remains true, Sofonisba is incredibly lonely. She never had anyone around that was in her corner growing up. All she had was the memories of a little turtle she called her sister. Sofo never really had anywhere she felt safe enough to consider home. She didn't have a family before. So when she meets the Hamato's, she's thrown for a loop.

Sofo comes off as "kooky" partly because she isn't used to living in the dimension she originally came from, but also because she doesn't know how to be part of a family. She's not used to having people care for her or having a place specifically for her. She masks a lot of her trauma because she doesn't trust the turtles quite yet, even though she desperately wants to. Years of living in isolation leads to Sofo being overtly self reliant and unwilling to receive help from others, yet still craving companionship.

That leaves her in a situation similar to DaVinci and Red, who are both terrible at asking for help.

There's more to talk about with these girls. I didn't even cover my thoughts about the other experiments Draxum could have had. More long lost family? Possibly. But! That's enough for now, I'll type more ideas when I get my thoughts together.

Enjoy some doodles!

Honestly, even if your Caine feels regret over your Able's condition, my version of Caine still wouldn't like him. He can't quite understand emotions like Abel can, so my Caine doesn't trust your Caine very much.
