Prolonged Agony Cover Art

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

End of the movie… or at least it should've been.

The Krang successfully grabbed Leo's leg and pulled him back into the prison dimension. When, unable to keep it open, the portal closes. Locking him in the void with the most malicious creature he's ever met.

Now it's a race against time to bring Leo home. But with each attempt they see Leo deteriorate… and Mikey starts to question whether or not Leo should be allowed out of the prison dimension at all.

I was meant to release this the same day I publish Chapter 20 but I got excited and couldn't wait so here you go!

This took me forever to do. I knew I wanted to do some kind of cover art from my fic, but I had no idea where to start. Art isn't my strongest point, I'm better at writing lol, but I think I did a pretty good job with this.

The idea came when I looked through some offical TMNT comic covers and decided to redraw one of those. The cover I chose is from The Last Ronin. I just liked the layout and concept, so I redrew it to fit my fic.

I drew feral Leo but was unsure about what to do with him so I thought I'd post him as is, with the added bonus of his brothers' reactions.

Below the cut I have expanded upon their feelings. There are spoilers if you haven't read up to the current chapter though.

Mikey:

He took one of Donnie's weapons with a clear goal in mind, though it is unknown what the weapon is and what he intends to do with it. He is serious though, he will not go easy on (Not) Leo.

Afterall he desperately wants Leo back but keeps jumping back and forth over whether or not the mutant turtle they pulled out of the Prison Dimension is really his brother or not.

Maybe Karai can help him answer that?

Raph:

Raph loves Leo so much and nothing will make him happier to get him home. But his family is getting hurt in the process. Leo seems more than reluctant to come home, and he's scared that Leo's now unpredictable and violent nature will get his family hurt or even worst... killed.

He knows it all the results of having been trapped alone with Krang Prime, but he has no idea how to help his brother come back from that.

Maybe going to the EPF will help him figure it out?

Donnie:

He will do anything to get his twin back. He doesn't care how much he gets hurt, but he will not risk hurting Leo more than he already is. He will keep trying to talk with his twin, offer help and support in anyway he can. He's not good with emotions, and is well aware that he's more likely going to mess it up than fix anything, but he will never stop trying.

However he is unsure whether or not being patient and understanding with Leo is helping.

Maybe Leo can help clear his resolve?

Prolonged Agony (@archetype-archives):

Mikey's first attempt to get Leo out of the Prison Dimension doesn't work. Throughout many attempts to free him they see Leo deteriorate until it becomes apparent that he is no longer the brother they knew.

Addams AU (@lackablazeical):

Big Mamma and Splinter raise the turtles, it's a darker version of Rise.

[archetype-archives]

Why you should vote for Prolonged Agony:

If you enjoy angst, you'll enjoy this.

Leo spends way too long in the Prison Dimension

Leo is feral, unpredictable, and has already blown up a building.

Leo is not against attacking hs own family, Donnie had bruises to prove this.

Mikey has acquired an unknown weapon had has suspicious intentions as to what he'll do with it.

The Hamato's have not stopped since the Krang invasion, they really need a break.

A big fight is coming up, they're going to need all the morale boost they can get!

On a more fluffy note: Donnie spends all his time in Leo's hoodies.

Way more angst is to come.

Why you should vote for Prolonged Agony:

Leo spends wayyyy too long in the Prison Dimension and it shows.

Mikey is unsure if the person they bought out from the PD really is his brother or an imposter.

Leo is on a mission to destroy every trace of Krang.

Very feral, dangerous and unpredictable Leonardo.

Mikey's gone to find (Not) Leo by himself with an unknown weapon.

Leo blew up a skyscraper.

Donnie spends all his time in Leo's blue hoodies.

Leo is not against attacking his own family.

Full to the brim with angst!!!

As thanks for everyone who voted for Prolonged Agony, I thought I'd draw another nice scene from the fic.

So here is Leo enjoying a nice relaxing swim while eating fish... the calm before a very big storm.

Cherish this smile... he night not be smiling again for a long time...

Best of luck to @malka-gol3 and Casino!

Did I repurpose a poster I already drew for Prolonged Agony... yes I did BUT I've got other art to use as propaganda as well. I just thought this would be a cool one for the overall vibe of the fic.

I WILL MAKE AS MUCH ART FOR THIS AS I CAN.

[archetype-archives]

I'm terrible at propaganda but....

VOTE PROLONGED AGONY!

...If you want to.

@tmntaucompetition

As an incentive, I drew something from one of the few heartwarming scenes in the fic. I thought I'd give everyone a break from the angst.

Still loads more angst to come though hehe.

If Prolonged Agony gets through I will drew more art.

I'm not much of an artists, I'm far more confident writting, but its fun to try anway.
