frozenyogurtfan (Today at 3:34 PM)
ok this is gonna sound rlly bad but hear me out: i kinda feel bad for superfly??
AnxietyQueen (Today at 3:34 PM)
.....What.
chooseviolence (Today at 3:34 PM)
?????? wtf man??? he almost killed us!!!!! not to mention all humans????
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 3:35 PM)
i said hear me out!! yeah he was evil and nuts and mean BUT literally one of his earliest memories is his dad being killed by humans?? if u saw that as a baby u'd be fucked up too, right? i mean that would srsly negatively influence ur formative years dude
then later he gives humans another chance and they try to kill him and his family?? if every interaction u have w/ humans is a bad one ofc ur gonna think theyre evil scum, i mean look at Dad!!
anime_enjoyer (Today at 3:35 PM)
it's still pretty sus to come to the conclusion that "all humans=bad" when ur sample size is only two in terms of experiences tho?? and yeah Dad DID think that way but he was willing to learn and changed his mind?? Superfly needed to have power and control over others at any cost! He ultimately didn't care about his brothers and sisters' safety or happiness like he said at all, he just wanted obedience??
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 3:35 PM)
ik dude, i'm not defending him, trust!! im just saying i can kinda see things from his point of view?? trauma does weird things to ur brain man
RedRage (Today at 3:35 PM)
preaching to the fuckin choir, kid /lh
hamatokarai (Today at 3:35 PM)
As someone whose pseudo-father was an irredeemable villain, I personally can't see things from Shredder's point of view, but then again the Shredder really didn't have much of a reason to be the way he was. All of his anger was fueled by self-righteousness, greed and his own pathetic insecurities. Your Superfly sounds like someone who just had a traumatic event radically affect his world view at a very early age and was then left without a parent or guardian to help him. But what do I know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
magic_mikey (Today at 3:36 PM)
i thank god every day that karai had her redemption arc or we all might be dead rn tbh

TheSmartOne (Today at 3:41 PM)
Alright everyone, maybe we should all step back and assess the situation. I'm assuming that @NeonLeon🌈 @BigRed @Bootyyyshaker9000 and @✨therealmichelangelo✨ are once again alternates of my siblings and I as well as Lavinia and her siblings? Welcome! We're happy to have you. @Bootyyyshaker9000, you said you broke into this server purposely? That's incredibly impressive! Also worrying, but mostly impressive.
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:42 PM)
Excited gasp! Yes, validate me, alternate version of myself!! Only another Donatello can truly appreciate my genius!!! 😎
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:42 PM)
god tech's head is gonna get so massive u could land a plane on that shit fr

Now, Other Me said something about my dumb dumb siblings (aff) and I being alternates of their family and someone named "Lavinia"? Could I get some clarification there? /genq
AnxietyQueen (Today at 3:42 PM)
Oh, um, I'm Lavinia! Me and my siblings were brought into this server not too long ago, but none of us actually did anything to get here? It just. Happened?

Well, this is....unexpected. Hm.
We must remember however, dear Michael, that this Karai is from a dimension completely separate from ours, and thus is not the same Hamato Karai we all love and miss. /nm

BigRed (Today at 3:46 PM)
Mikey....
hamatokarai (Today at 3:46 PM)
Well....thank you?
This sounds like it's a whole story in itself, but to be fair to Lavinia's group maybe we could press pause for now and allow them to do their introductions first? Then you can explain if you're feeling up to it, I promise. /gen

i use any and all pronouns!! like really, all of them, throw 'em at me 👍
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:50 PM)
The fact that we're going out of order is low key bothering me but the thrill of communicating with alternate versions of ourselves is SO much more overwhelming!! I am stimming so enthusiastically rn you don't understand.
Greetings, alternates! I am Donatello, also known as Donnie, Don, Donald, Tello, Purple, and/or Othello Von Ryan. My pronouns are tech/they/xir, as gender is an asinine social construct fabricated by man and I am No Man.
BigRed (Today at 3:50 PM)
i guess that just leaves me, huh? uh well. i'm Raph, but u guys can call me Red or Raphie. he/she for me. i came out as bigender recently 😊🏳️⚧️
RedRage (Today at 3:50 PM)
hey, congrats other me, thats awesome /gen
TheSmartOne (Today at 3:50 PM)
Yes, good going Red! And I completely share your entirely accurate feelings on gender, Purple. It's nice to see another turtle of science reject the gender binary. /gen /pos
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:51 PM)
EEEEEEEEE!!! Even more validation!! This might literally be the greatest day of my young life thus far!!!!

badasskunoichi (Today at 3:51 PM)
Uhhhh. No? Karai and I have a few fish, but afaik they're not magic? You never know, though. Nothing really surprises me anymore.
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:52 PM)
pro tip: never accdientally flush ur fish and let them become mutants with a taste for vengance. that shit isnt fun
badasskunoichi (Today at 3:52 PM)

Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:52 PM)

NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:52 PM)

magic_mikey (Today at 3:52 PM)
hey, getting flushed is how leatherhead got mutated!! our leatherhead i mean, the kids lh was mutated on purpose
BigRed (Today at 3:52 PM)
Leatherhead? do we know anyone with that name, fellas?
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:52 PM)
Not that I can recall, no.
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 3:52 PM)
i've never met anyone named that nah
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:52 PM)
negative ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
magic_mikey (Today at 3:53 PM)
yall don't have an lh???? DD: that is so sad actually 😩
AnxietyQueen (Today at 3:53 PM)
Yeah, honestly, I can't imagine not having LH around? I mean, I've only known her for a few months but she's literally family. She paints my nails and helps me with my homework!
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:53 PM)
homework??
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:53 PM)
Ah yes, that was one of my questions! I noticed earlier that Raph-Lavinia's Raph, that is-mentioned that "only teachers" called him Raphael. Are you perhaps home schooled? Your Splinter gives you regular assignments, perhaps? Is he the teacher you're referring to?
magic_mikey (Today at 3:53 PM)
nah dude thats the wild thing theyre literally talking about actual school w/ actual teachers. like public fucking high school bro
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 3:53 PM)

UR PURPLE DRAGONS ARE A HIGH SCHOOL NERD CLUB??!
LOOLL i am so using this info to my advantage next time i run into those chucklefucks 🏒
TheSmartOne (Today at 4:01 PM)
1) Purple said tech club, not nerd club. Though I know the two words are practically synonymous in your vocabulary. 🙄
2) The Purple Dragons will hardly care let alone be offended if you tell them that they're a "nerd club" in an alternate universe.
THEcaseyjones (Today at 4:02 PM)
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:02 PM)
so are u 2 dating or
BigRed (Today at 4:02 PM)
LEO!!!
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:02 PM)
oh my god what?? it's an honest question!! they totally have enemies to lovers chemistry
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:02 PM)
Loathe as I am to agree with Nardo, he seems to be onto something here. Though I myself am picking up on a distinctly "enemies to friends to lovers" vibe, personally.
THEcaseyjones (Today at 4:02 PM)
i mean u aren't wrong me and Don are dating but also howd u read us like that from literally one (1) interaction
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:02 PM)
pfffft, what do u take me for, a heterosexual? 💅
and semantics, Donald, semantics. sweet pizza supreme 🙄
chooseviolence (Today at 4:03 PM)
wait so u guys actually call ur leo "Nardo"??? and like is that derogatory or...??
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:03 PM)
I call him Nardo, primarily, yes. And no, it is not derogatory. I do, however, have many inventive and colorful derogatory nicknames for each and every one of my siblings!
chooseviolence (Today at 4:03 PM)
jfc they literally call this man leon AND nardo w/ their full chests. like, without even chuckling
anime_enjoyer (Today at 4:03 PM)
not sure if we owe u an apology or not Vinia?? i mean it's not even relevant anymore so
AnxietyQueen (Today at 4:03 PM)
Sure it's not relevant anymore but I told you guys Leon was a cool name!! But noooo, no one listens to Vinnie and her epically awesome ideas. 🙄
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 4:03 PM)
i would have felt bad if u hadn't thrown in that last part tbh ""epically awesome ideas""
chooseviolence (Today at 4:04 PM)
it is so embarrassing to share blood w/ u sometimes sis /hj /lh

magic_mikey (Today at 4:04 PM)
LOL i love when vinia loses her cool and just goes feral on some bitches /pos
hamatokarai (Today at 4:04 PM)
I think all of us do, tbh. Every time Vinnie lashes out or breaks their composure on this server the majority of us are just sitting back here like
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:04 PM)
so what i'm gathering from all this is 1) u think i'm Cool, which is correct btw, and 2) Lavinia is normally a stick in the mud?? HOW can an alternate version of MOI possibly be boring most of the time???
RedRage (Today at 4:04 PM)

so what if Raph did?? even April and Pops got teary eyed!!
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:06 PM)
It was a brilliant and moving performance. He'll never admit it, but I caught Draxum getting emotional as well.
Although if you bring up said fact to him I will deny telling you until my dying breath. I value my life. /hj
chooseviolence (Today at 4:06 PM)
who tf is draxum and why does their name sound like a household cleaner
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:07 PM)
LMAAOOO that is so tru fam, i'm gonna use that one next time i see him :'))
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 4:07 PM)
oh no u won't!! be nice leo >:(
to answer ur question Draxum is our dad!!
Spaceheroleo (Today at 4:07 PM)
Your father isn't Master Splinter? I thought you mentioned him before?
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:07 PM)
What sweet, sweet Angelo means is that Baron Draxum is the Yokai responsible for mutating us with our father's DNA. He in fact created the ooze that all mutants in our dimension come from. Draxum chose to combine us with our Splinter's DNA because he was a great fighter, thus making him a prime candidate for creating four weapons of war. Also-and this is just a personal theory, but I think the others will back me up on this-I believe he also chose Papa because he thought he was hot. Mere speculation, really, but there is some captivating evidence.
RedRage (Today at 4:07 PM)
i literally understood almost none of the words u just said
TheSmartOne (Today at 4:07 PM)
I'm confused as well? You're saying this Draxum specifically mutated you and your siblings to be weapons of war? His intention was to use you for-what, exactly? A war with whom? The Foot Clan? The Kraang? Also, you said he's a yokai? As in the supernatural creatures of Japanese folklore? Those exist in your dimension??
hamatokarai (Today at 4:07 PM)
Yokai REAL?! 😱 (3 AM) (not clickbait)
AnxietyQueen (Today at 4:07 PM)
Omg Karai 🤣
So what you're saying is Draxum is kind of like your Baxter Stockman? He's the guy who created the Ooze in our dimension. He didn't mutate us on purpose, but he did create lots of other mutants. He wasn't making them for war, though-he was making himself a family.
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:08 PM)
STOCKBOY DID WHAT NOW
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 4:08 PM)
do u guys think our stockboy is capable of creating mutants??
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:08 PM)
I fucking hope not, pardon my crude language. (I'm not actually sorry)
To answer your many questions, Othertello: Yes, Draxum chose us to be warriors in a supposedly prophesied war between humans and Yokai. He was unaware of the existence of the Foot Clan or the Krang back then as far as I know. He was trying to create the perfect army to fight against the so called "human threat." And yes, Yokai are very real, given that thousands of them live in the Hidden City under New York.

Oh? Does Purple not enjoy public displays of affection? /genq
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 4:15 PM)
I do not, but what Nardo is mostly referring to is the fact that I am asexual and demiromantic. I'm not against romantic relationships, but they're certainly not one of my priorities. Also, my brand of autism makes me quite averse to touch unless I am the instigator.
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 4:15 PM)
yeah, donnie doesn't rlly give out hugs v much or join in on them. tech has to be rlly emotional to actually seek touch
i, on the other 3 fingered hand, am v touchy feely!! it used to make me sad that xe didn't wanna cuddle, but we make it work!!

cw for talk of canon typical violence that can be seen as torture (the shock collar Incident+Cynthia Utrom shocking the mm teetles) also a brief allusion to conversion therapy done to autistic people to "cure" them (the chapter isn't that serious, i promise)

Loooonng sigh. Look, in retrospect I'm not proud of what I did, but I was trying to help! I thought the devices would strengthen us as a team! Events that have transpired since have opened my eyes to the fact that I do, in fact, love and appreciate my siblings the way they are, flaws and all. I have apologized and they have forgiven me. It was years ago. I was fourteen!
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 4:19 PM)
yeah Donnie wasn't trying to be mean!! xe just thought the team would work better if everyone fought like them
BigRed (Today at 4:19 PM)

🥊🩸 (Today at 4:19 PM)
so let me get this straight: u were frustrated that ur sibs don't fight or behave the way u do and u thought it'd be better if they did, so u decided to "fix" them. and to do this you gave them "gifts" that would. Change them?
christ the Autism is strong in this one (that's not ableist btw im autistic we recognize our own)

NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 4:21 PM)
damn i think u actually got thru to them?? its taken us years to convince tech that shocking someone for making puns is Bad, actually
TheSmartOne (Today at 4:21 PM)
I think your Donnie just has difficulty empathizing with others and seeing things from another's point of view. Having low empathy is nothing to be ashamed of and it certainly doesn't make tech a bad person. A lot of neurodivergent people have trouble identifying emotions in others or even in themselves. It sounds like Purple wasn't purposely being malicious, but rather didn't stop to think emotionally rather than rationally. I've had some trouble with that in the past myself. Casey still has to remind me to "think with my heart" sometimes, though that is literally impossible and I hate that phrase with a fiery passion.
THEcaseyjones (Today at 4:21 PM)

hey, new guys, i have a genuine question and i promise i'm not trying to be an asshole-if y'all are different species of turtles, how can @NeonLeon🌈 and @Bootyyyshaker9000 be twins? /nm /genq
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 11:47 AM)
we just. ✨are✨ tbh
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 11:47 AM)
Scientifically, it is quite impossible. However, Nardo and I are the only two who are the same age in our group, and growing up we adopted the belief of our closeness being caused by some kind of intrinsic bond. Leo suggested that we must be twins, and though I knew even at that age it couldn't be true, the idea made me. Hm. Happy, admittedly.

BigRed (Today at 11:58 AM)
Dad kinda feels the exact opposite abt Japan tbh?? he has a lot of bad memories there and he moved to the US as soon as he could to get far away from the Hamato clan. he's rlly distanced himself from the culture and even the language. he never taught us any japanese or anything.
hamatokarai (Today at 11:58 AM)
Man really Americanized himself? Weird. I can't imagine not wanting to cling on to at least a little bit of where you came from, but I guess trauma affects us all differently. And you're sure this isn't like, an internalized racism thing? /nm /genq
BigRed (Today at 11:58 AM)
i dont think so?? Pops is more complex than he seems tho, so Raph's not 100% sure. mostly i think he just rlly resented his grandfather and the idea of being part of the Hamato clan w/ their tradition and dedication to stopping the Shredder. his mom left when he was little to fulfill her duties in trying to stop the Shredder from forming and it rlly hurt him.
THEcaseyjones (Today at 11:59 AM)
stop the shredder from forming? ur shredder wasnt just like. a dude in a shitty helmet??
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 11:59 AM)
No? Our Shredder was the living embodiment of the Kuroi Yoroi, a mystic suit of armor forged by the Krang which corrupts the wearer. Oroku Saki struck a deal with the Krang in order to help him defeat a rival clan, but once he donned the Dark Armor it completely took over his body and mind. His soul became entrapped in the armor until he was defeated by his daughter, our Karai (aka Gram Gram), when the pieces of the armor scattered around the globe. The remaining members of the Foot Clan kept the armor's faceplate and made it their mission to find the rest. The Hamato Clan made it their mission to keep that from happening, lest the Shredder take form again. There's obviously more to the story, but that's the basic rundown of the history of our Shredder.
hamatokarai (Today at 11:59 AM)
.............
That is. Significantly different from the story of our Shredder. Hm.
So your Oroku Saki...became corrupted. The armor turned him into a monster. It was just the armor. Interesting.
And he was resurrected, so to speak. Hmm.

That's the thing, I don't want to whine about my problems or my trauma from my shitty past, I want to punch Shredder in his stupid, ugly face. But I can't even do that. I couldn't even do it when he was alive. I'll never get to blacken his eyes or break his nose the way I need to rn. I can't scream at him and ask him why he was such an entitled prick who felt like the world owed him something. Why he felt entitled to my mother's love or even her attention. She was his brother's wife. Was he really such a sensitive man baby that he couldn't just move on and find someone else? Why do men like him take rejection as the greatest insult possible? Yeah, it sucks, but fucking grow a backbone and move on??
Like, how could he say he loved my mother when he had the nerve to kidnap her child after trying to murder her husband, his brother? He didn't love her; he was obsessed with her. He saw her as a prize that he was competing with my father for. And when she died by his hands, he disrespected her further by burning her home and stealing her child. He was a spoiled child who was jealous that his brother got the toy he wanted and he just couldn't let it go; he had to steal it by any means possible. The man couldn't accept that maybe his failures and rejections were the result of his own shortcomings, because in his mind he didn't have any shortcomings. If something was wrong, it had to be someone else's fault. He needed to blame anyone he could. First his father, then my father, then me. He blamed everyone else for his own misery and never himself. There was never any self reflection or attempt to grow as a person. He was barely a person. He was a monster.
And now I find out that Blue, Orange, Purple and Red-their Shredder wasn't even a bad guy. He was a normal guy trying to protect his family who got corrupted by some stupid Kraang armor. It was literally just the armor. An outside force turned him into the monster he became. Destroy the armor, get rid of the threat. And it just-it's not fucking fair. I don't care if that sounds whiny, because it's true. It's not fair that their Oroku Saki made a bad deal with some aliens and got fucked as a result while the Oroku Saki that I once loved and feared in equal measure was a horrible, vicious person for no reason. It's not fair that he raised me to be a weapon, a soldier in his army, a pawn. That he raised me to hate the man he told me killed my mother when it was HIM all along. How could he look into my eyes and spout such bullshit for 16 fucking years? Did he lie to me for so long that he started to believe the lie? Was I ever anything more to him than a sharp blade? It sounds like their Shredder actually loved his daughter and wasn't himself when she had to kill him. Shredder would have killed me without a second thought. I meant nothing to him. I'm so angry and so weak about this, and I never got to be weak before because I wasn't allowed to be. I hate myself for crying because he hated it when I cried. I wasn't allowed to. He's still dictating how I feel even now and I just. I hate him so much for still having power over me. Fuck,,
....feeling better now? /gen
I....yeah, actually. A little. I'm just. I'm so scared that I can never fully escape him. What if he haunts me forever? Did he ruin me forever?
look, 'rai, i can't tell u he's just gona leave ur mind one day causr he wont. if ur asking whether ur like, permanently damaged by that son of a bitch: not in the way u think. he traumatized u just like he traumatized us all, but he didnt ruin you as a person. he didnt ruin Leo when he fucked up her knee or her voice. he didnt ruin Sensei after he took his family away from him. he didn;t ruin any of us. we're not broken. we survived that fucker's overblown temper tantrums and made it out shaken but alive. and yeah, the trauma he gave us will probably be around forever, but the thing is it'll get better w/ every day. its already gotten better. Leo doesnt have nightmares nearly as much anymore; Mikey either. I don't picture his face when i'm pummeling my punching bag like i used to. and ur a successful person with ur own family! u have a wife and a child and a life and u make stupid jokes and memes on discord and u have tea w/ Sensei and make him laugh. we're okay; ur okay. is every day gonna be rainbows and roses? fuck no. some days are just shit. it's part of life. but u can handle it, and if u need to cry? doesnt make u weak. just makes u a person, man. it makes u better than he ever was. /gen
Okay I'm not gonna lie and say that that wasn't beautiful and profound and actually very helpful but also I feel the need to point out that you calling the Shredder's attacks "overblown temper tantrums" made me snort so hard oh my god. /nm /gen
jfc ofc thats what u take away from that. i open up and offer good advice for once and this is the thanks i get /lh /j
hey, the fact that I laughed at all is a good sign, right? be proud of yourself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i mean its nor surprising, i am a professional comedian/life coach after all /j
Sounds more like Mikey tbh. You're more of professional critic. Not an art critic or a food critic or even a film critic, just...a critic. Of life.
can't argue w/ that. i'm kinda like the Gordon Ramsay of life: i yell and complain and for some reason people love me. dont get paid for it like him, tho
You're much more likable than Gordon Ramsay, for what it's worth. You're also unironically more conventionally attractive tbfh. /srs

chooseviolence (Today at 6:43 PM)
being on the improv team doesnt make u an actor dude
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 6:43 PM)
and being on the wrestling team doesn't make u a UFC champ but u still act like one 🙄
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 6:43 PM)
oohh, thts so cool!! our dad used to be an actor!! maybe u've heard of him: the great Lou Jitsu, the best fighter/actor of the 80's and 90's??
also raph and leo can tell u a story about wrestling LOL
🥊🩸 (Today at 6:44 PM)
i thought u said splinter was ur dad?? the draxum guy mutated u but he did it w/ hamato yoshi's dna, right? where does this lou jitsu guy come in? also lowkey bothering me that his last name is spelled jitsu instead of jutsu
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 6:44 PM)
Lou Jitsu was the stage name that Papa adopted after moving to America and becoming a movie star. Hamato Yoshi and Lou Jitsu are the same person; Lou Jitsu is just the name he's famous under. Also, I believe it's spelled that way because most Western audiences at the time wouldn't know how to correctly pronounce the word Jutsu, so they modified it to be more phonetically accurate to the English language. Raffaello did say before that he completely Americanized himself after leaving the clan. /nm
TheSmartOne (Today at 6:44 PM)
How strange-our Splinter would never dream of leaving the clan to pursue stardom. The only reason he moved to New York was because he lost his entire family (or he thought he had at the time). But no, I don't believe we have Lou Jitsu or anyone like him in our dimension. What about you, lil Donnie? @anime_enjoyer
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:45 PM)
nope!! and our dad definitely isn't an actor either lol the guy sits at home every night watching trashy TV and eating cool ranch doritos by the pound.
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:45 PM)
bold of u to assume our dad doesnt do the exact same thing but w/ cake and milk
chooseviolence (Today at 6:45 PM)
ok im confused: is ur dad a rat or not?
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:45 PM)
oh he is most definitely a little rat man. a sad, round little rat man who watches reality shows and lounges around in his bathrobe complaining about his back pain /aff (mostly)
🥊🩸 (Today at 6:46 PM)
that is...extremely different from our Splinter?? i cant imagine Sensei lounging in front of the tv for any amount of time tbh,, once in awhile he joins us for movie night but he doesnt rlly watch the movie so much as just sit w/ us and talk. dude is over the hill and he still practices ninjutsu every day and meditates when hes not doing that. at least all our dads are boring, tho. the most exciting thing our Splinter does these days is eat a cheesecicle

I will add that while Michelangelo has been a consistent fan favorite throughout generations, Donatello seems to be more popular than ever with the younger crowd thanks to yours truly and our most recent iteration, @anime_enjoyer, probably due to our sheer relatability. However, we know that the author is Michelangelo kin, and thus is inherently biased.

Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 3:38 PM)
Our alternates are 26, then? And the others are 15. Fascinating. Also interesting how two out of three groups of siblings are quadruplets who from my understanding all came from the same clutch? Whilst my siblings and I are completely different species of turtles. Then again, our group seems to be the only one which was intentionally mutated for a very specific purpose. It makes sense that Angie and her siblings, for instance, would be sold in a pet shop together if they all shared the same biological parents. Then again, it depends on where and how said pet shop sourced their animals.

badasskunoichi (Today at 4:46 PM)
I'm wishing you the best of luck with therapy, Lavinia! I know it can be scary but I think if you stick to it for awhile it will really help! My dad says most of his patients are nervous during their first appointment, so your therapist will probably be expecting it. Just remember that if you ever feel overwhelmed, you can leave at any time. You're not obligated to talk or even stay if you don't feel comfortable. I'm sure having your dad there will help, though. /gen /pos

Species dysphoria. Yes, he does have quite a bit of trauma surrounding his mutation. It's gotten better over the past few years, but understandably, the shock and disillusionment that comes from going from a highly successful, physically fit, genuinely attractive human being to a rat has done some permanent damage to his psyche.

Spaceheroleo (Today at 4:51 PM)
I'm...not sure, honestly. He's so stoic and seems so unmovable sometimes that it feels like nothing bothers him, but obviously that's not true. I think he's had a lot of time to come to terms with what happened and what he's become and make peace with it. He told me once that although he lost a lot, he gained a lot too; like the four of us. Also, he's really embraced the role of giant rat man-I mean, just look at the Cheese Phone.

I wanted to be Merida when I was little. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
chooseviolence (Today at 6:46 PM)
yeah after Dad showed us brave for the first time vinnie was hooked
she wanted to watch it every day for a week until donnie literally broke down and cried bc he wanted to watch wall-e instead lmao
THEcaseyjones (Today at 6:47 PM)
jfc u kids always makig me feel old i was already a teenager when Brave came out and u were like, what, 4??
fuckyou (Today at 6:47 PM)
ikr its such a mindfufck to think that while we were beating up Kraangbots these fetuses were like. learning how to brush their teeth
chooseviolence (Today at 6:47 PM)
hey fuck u i'll have u know that Dad started training us when we were babies so we probably couldve kicked a Kraangbot's ass even back then
dont know what the fuck they are but i could've killed one i bet
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:47 PM)
oh boy so we're talking about krang stuff tonight,,, yippee 🙃 /s
badasskunoichi (Today at 6:48 PM)
?? Is everything okay, Leon? /genq
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:48 PM)
i mean i;m mostly okay but uh. me and my sibs have a lot of ✨trauma✨ abt the krang so uhhh. maybe we could talk abt s/t else for now !! /srs /nm
Spaceheroleo (Today at 6:48 PM)
Ofc. Who did you and your siblings want to be growing up, Leon? /genq
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 6:48 PM)
oh that's easy: Jupiter Jim!!
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:48 PM)

we also wanted to be Lou Jitsu but that died pretty quick after we learned hes actually our father lmao
TheSmartOne (Today at 6:48 PM)
You mean you didn't always know?
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:49 PM)
nah dad kept lots of secrets from us for a long time, probably still does
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 6:49 PM)
Our father keeps many things close to his chest, so to speak. He doesn't like talking about his past unless it's to brag, but even the good memories seem to make him sad. He rarely divulges information about himself voluntarily.
fuckyou (Today at 6:49 PM)
ok tell me to fuck off if im overstepping or w/e but ur splinter sounds so fucking depressed like everything i learn about this man makes me more worried for his mental well being?? is he good /genq /nm
BigRed (Today at 6:49 PM)
he's doing better now!! he's more involved than he used to be and he's in a relationship w/ someone who keeps him in line /lh /hj
Bootyyyshaker9000 (Today at 6:49 PM)
There are so many horrible, horrible jokes I want to make right now but I just remembered there are children in this server...
chooseviolence (Today at 6:50 PM)
yeah bc as teenagers in hs we definitely dont hear the most rancid jokes on planet earth literally every day were in school for any amount of time, i mean its not like the boys room is covered in graffiti of the dicks and "i fucked ur mom" variety 🙄
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:50 PM)
I do not miss the boy's bathroom at all tbh. The girl's room is so much cleaner for the most part!! Sometimes you see things like "Stacy W is a sl*t" or "Johanna F sucks d*ck" but not a lot. Sometimes there's blood but it's not a huge problem.
magic_mikey (Today at 6:50 PM)
why would there be blood???? 😰
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:50 PM)
?? Because of someone's period? /nm
magic_mikey (Today at 6:51 PM)
ooohhhhh,,,, ok that makes sense
NeonLeon🌈 (Today at 6:51 PM)
dude Angie did ur mind just jump st8 to homicide or s/t?? lmao
magic_mikey (Today at 6:51 PM)
idk man teenage girls can be scary!!! any horror movie will tell u that!
badasskunoichi (Today at 6:51 PM)
As someone who was a teenage girl for many years, I can confirm. They can be downright unhinged. /gen
THEcaseyjones (Today at 6:51 AM)
sometimes Angel tells me some of the things she and her friends do or talk about during their sleepovers and im just like,,, kid. this is how The Exorcist started
fuckyou (Today at 6:52 PM)
LMAO?? nice
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:52 PM)
vinnie won't watch the exorcist with us :/
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:52 PM)
Bc I know you guys would just make fun of me if I got scared!! 😒
chooseviolence (Today at 6:52 PM)
thats not true?? we'd make fun of mikey too
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 6:53 PM)
shut up u know the scene where her head spins all the way around freaks me out!!!
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:53 PM)
The scene where WHAT?!
magic_mikey (Today at 6:53 PM)
dude vinia do u not know anything about the movie?? /genq /nm
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:53 PM)
No?? And now I really don't want to!! /gen
hamatokarai (Today at 6:53 PM)
It's cute how you American born and raised folks find movies like The Exorcist scary. Watch a Japanese horror film then come talk to me.
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:53 PM)
i love japanese horror!! any recommendations?? 🥺 /genq
hamatokarai (Today at 6:53 PM)
I'll DM you a list. 👍
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:54 PM)

AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:54 PM)
I hate this right now. /hj
BigRed (Today at 6:54 PM)
i don't like horror movies either, Vinnie. still love Halloween tho!!
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:54 PM)
this is the first Halloween we get to properly celebrate w/ humans!! we're going to a big house party April's friend is throwing 😎
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 6:55 PM)
we are??
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:55 PM)
No, we're not. /srs
chooseviolence (Today at 6:55 PM)
oh come on Miss Leader, this isn't like the movies 🙄 i doubt any friend of april's would throw a party w/ drugs and booze
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:55 PM)
Maybe not, but someone could sneak them in?? I'm sorry but I just don't think it's a good or smart idea. Bad stuff doesn't just happen in the movies, you know. We've all seen plenty of true crime.
Spaceheroleo (Today at 6:55 PM)
I know it's none of my business, but I think Vinnie is right. Is there even going to be adult supervision?
chooseviolence (Today at 6:55 PM)
frozenyogurtfan (Today at 6:56 PM)
dude vinnie, leo, we've done way more dangerous things than go to an unsupervised party?? also we're literally ninjas, we can definitely protect ourselves
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:56 PM)
yeah!! besides, it's just ppl from school!
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:56 PM)
Exactly. 😒
chooseviolence (Today at 6:56 PM)
is this about those guys who bullied u from the debate team?? we wouldnt let them hurt u, sis /gen
✨therealmichelangelo✨ (Today at 6:56 PM)
ur being bullied, Vinnie?? D: /genq
AnxietyQueen (Today at 6:56 PM)
I don't want to talk about it right now. I don't talk about any of this right now, please. Sorry for being such a buzzkill. I'm gonna go to bed, I have a headache. /gen /nm
YellowSubmarine (Today at 6:57 PM)

Is she gonna be okay??
anime_enjoyer (Today at 6:57 PM)
idk?? i knew she'd fight us on it but i didn't expect her to get that upset...
chooseviolence (Today at 6:57 PM)
shes probably doing that thing where she thinks they have to hide their problems from us cause shes the Leader™ and that means theyre not allowed to ask for help, even from us 😤

Today 7:15 PM
vinnie, are u okay? D: /genq
it's okay if ur not, btw. u don't always have to be the strong one. /gen
I'm...idk. I just.
That Halloween party you all want to go to? I wasn't even invited. April's friend knows me and she invited practically everyone else in the school but not me. I mean, I wouldn't have minded going just to experience Halloween, you know? I really was kind of worried about drinking and stuff...but I wasn't invited, so if there was trouble I wouldn't be able to watch out for you three. I know that's not my job; I know I need to lighten up. But I would've gone just to make you guys and April happy. Maybe I would've even had fun! But I wasn't invited, and I know why, and...idk. I'm always ruining things for you guys, I'm so sorry.
hey hey, don't apologize, u don't ruin ANYTHING, okay?? ur an awesome sister. u always look out for us and ur super brave and smart, even if u dont always think so. i'm rlly sorry u weren't invited, but why didn't u just tell us? i dont wanna go to a party if ur being snubbed, and ik donnie and raph would feel the same way
but why wouldn't april's friend invite u?? what's her name-gabby or s/t? aren't u guys in the lgbt+ club together?? /genq
Her name is Gail, and yeah, we are. She's vice president, actually. The only reason she hasn't kicked me out is because she knows it would upset April. She has...strong feelings. About trans people. Trans women in particular. She tries to hide it behind the facade of caring about the ~safety and well being of girls and women~ or whatever but she's actually just a hateful terf with a blog that would make JK Rowling proud tbfh.
oh shit, rlly?? does april know??? how is she even allowed in the lgbt+ club if she actively hates the "t" part??
That's the thing-she's really sneaky about it. She only makes passive aggressive comments or little "jokes" when no one else is around to hear, or she words things in a way that makes it seem like she's just concerned or confused, and then everyone takes pity on her and says things like "It's okay Gail, you're still learning!" when she's not trying to learn anything, she's just trying to make herself seem like this sweet, innocent person. But I've seen her tumblr and her bio literally says "tr*nnies, transtrenders and other misogynists DNI." She writes and reblogs posts about how trans women are "invading women's spaces" and "endangering real women."
She's so proud of her own ignorance and hatred. She loves spewing slurs and making inappropriate comments about literal strangers' genitals and then turning around and claiming to be a feminist who rejects the patriarchy and the idea that women are just their bodies...but she thinks women are just their bodies!! She goes on about how women aren't just baby making machines then says you can't be a real woman unless you have a uterus!!
I don't want to tell April because I don't want to start drama and ruin their friendship. She's known Gail a lot longer than she's known me, so what right do I have to come in and spoil everything? I know April doesn't agree with her and would break all contact if she knew the truth, but...I don't want April to lose a friend. I just. I feel like ever since I came out I've been disturbing the lives of everyone I love. Dad's had to come to my rescue more than once, Raph got a week's suspension for punching that one guy, now this...Sometimes I almost wish I had stayed in the closet, but then I hate myself for thinking that way. I know it would've hurt me to keep living a lie, but...
but u'd rather suffer in silence than potentially inconvenience other ppl. which u don't, btw. sticking up for u isn't an inconvenience and u aren't disturbing our lives by being urself. vinnie, u have to stop apologizing for other ppl's behavior. other ppl's shitty actions aren't ur responsibility. ur a teenager like the rest of us. u deserve to have fun and feel safe and comfortable, at school and at home. u being trans isn't the problem, it's ppl's attitudes about it. we choose to stand up to ppl who are jerks to u for the same reason u do for us: bc ur our sibling and we love u, and we won't tolerate ppl picking on u for any reason, but especially not for being trans. and Vinnie, it's not JUST cause ur our sister either; bigots deserve to be called out regardless!! Raph was saying things like "fuck homophobes" and "transphobes can eat my ass" way before u and donnie came out, remember?
and the thing with april...do u rlly think april should be friends w/ someone like that? don't u think she deserves to know the truth? u'd be doing her a favor by telling her bc she would never want to be friends w/ someone so gross. u shouldn't feel guilty bc Gail is a manipulative, transphobic bitch-that's no one's fault but hers. April is most likely gonna find out some day anyways! no matter how sly she is about it she can't hide her true feelings forever; she'll slip up sometime and then everyone will see her true colors. but April and the other trans/nb ppl in ur club should know before then; it's not fair to have a person like that in the club when it could be dangerous. u might not be the only person she's picking on in secret, u know? we've brought down bullies before-remember Superfly? Gail will be a piece of cake compared to him. and u won't have to do it alone! we'll all help u!! /gen
.......
I love you, little brother.

They're letting that turtle freak use the girl's bathroom at school. The girl's room; you know, for girls and women? A place where someone with a disgusting dick has no place being? This is outrageous. If he's going to whine and boohoo about "safe spaces" then so will I. How the hell are we supposed to feel safe when there's a man being allowed in our restrooms? My parents are hearing about this and the principal is going to rethink her disgustingly misogynistic decision to endanger high school girls.

i am confusion??
anime_enjoyer (Today at 10:18 AM)
the short version: this bitch has been bullying and misgendering our sister (and probably other trans kids at school) but Vinnie was too scared to say anything (/nm!!) until recently and this girl happens to be vice president of the lgbtqia+ club and April's friend. well, she was April's friend. She's mad bc Vinnie didn't tell her she was being bullied sooner, which i guess is fair from her point of view but personally i'm angrier at this tool for making my sister feel unsafe at school ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
chooseviolence (Today at 10:18 AM)
she's probably not actually mad at vinnie tbh she's just angry that she didn't notice sooner
i was rlly mad too and almost made vinnie cry bc i was so mad at myself for not being able to protect my sister,, lmao :')

Spaceheroleo (Today at 10:19 AM)
Our Raph struggles with misdirected anger too, so don't feel too bad. It's hard when you feel protective of someone and then you find out they've been hurt seemingly right under your nose. I know what it's like to take on your siblings' safety and wellbeing as your personal responsibility-and while you do have to all look out for each other, you shouldn't feel as though you have to be omnipresent in their lives and protect them from everyone and everything. You're still a kid too, and you need to focus on yourself sometimes. I'm sure Vinnie doesn't blame or resent any one of you. /gen
