honey birdie 🕊️

from wattpad kid to tmnt loving adult

[contaminatedlamb]

hiii! (with malicious intent)

Welcome to my little tumblr account! I’m Honey Birdie but you can call me Honey :] I am a she/her kinda gal. my interests are in THG, SpiderVerse, all things Dreamworks, but my main fixation is TMNT, primarily the 2012 run! (though I am absolutely going hog wild for mutant mayhem it’s everything I wanted as a kid and as an adult)

A little fun fact about me is that I watched the 2k12 version when it first came out when I was really young, but due to circumstances in my life I only ever watched one season. From then on, I heavily wrote for the fandom (I started on wattpad and thats my main base) and have been in the fandom for over a decade! That means I based all of my writing, characterizations, and ideas, from watching the show once as a child. Yes. I am autistic. Yes, I started rewatching the show recently and got dragged back into this lovely community :}

My favorite ninja turtle is Leonardo (simp wise), and I love all of his brothers for different reasons. Raphael because he’s hilarious and he’s my height, Donatello because I want to put that grunkly young man in a situation, and Mikey because he just like me fr.

My current work is Paint, a tmnt2012 Leonardo x F!Reader. Whatever comes to mind when you read that, don’t believe it, because it’s not your normal kind of fanfiction. We have a y/n with neurodivergencies and personality! we have a buff oc with a dark past! we have a friggin weird plot! we have trauma! we have grief! we got it all baby!! It’s definitely intriguing and i’d encourage you to give it a read! you can read the first chapter here. Want more paint? You can find the second chapter here

You can also find me here! (Links coming soon)

that one famous painting or something

Just watched V for Vendetta for the first time and guys, im losing it. Not because it was good, bc of fucking course it was, just as good as everyone always told me it was, but because in all the discussion I've heard about this movie over the years, no one ever prepared me for the fact that plot of the first half sounds like a Tiktok-bait dark romance novel. What if you were a beautiful young Natalie Portman orphan and you were attacked by bad guys, but were saved at the last moment by a mysterious masked manic pixie dream terrorist who ends up sort of accidentally kidnapping you for your own safety and locking you in his undergound hideout, except did i mention he's also clearly extremely rich and well-read and the curator of an unofficial museum of forbidden culture and art, and when he's not out murdering fascists or dorkily sword-fighting a suit of armor he's showing you his favorite black and white movies and cooking you breakfast in a frilly apron? What then? I mean sure, the months of psychological prison torture were a bit much, but let's be real, Colleen Hoover love interests have done worse

slippery, slippery fox

| angsty judy hopps x nick wilde one-shot. inspired by that concept art of judy walking in the rain + the original zootopia plot

| 826 words

| summary: judy is a fed agent assigned to “hunting” lowlife predators and nick is her next assignment; but with every encounter and every time he manages to escape, she wonders if this predator actually has something to lose

| content warnings: blood, gun violence, implied murder, chase scene, car accident

art by me @arvecina

“I know what I did—“

“Don’t.”

Nick tightly closed his mouth.

Judy turned off the safety on her pistol, eyes unwavering from his. He held his paws up as his chest rose and fell in decisiveness, glaring at the gun as he prepared to speak again.

“I know—“ he began, twitching expectantly for her to fire “—that… what I did… was wrong. There is no world where I survive the consequences of my actions, sure, but hear me out: the world we’re living in, right this moment? I’m still alive. And I can get us both out of this.”

She caressed the grip of the gun. Otherwise, she remained still.

“You’ve seen what I can do. You know I’m more capable than majority of the predators you’ve met—“

“You have no idea who I’ve met. But if I had to compare them to you? You’re slippery, Nick. But if you’re anything like what I thought you were, who’s to say that you’re not using it against everyone you meet?”

“Okay, okay,” he swallowed, “just… let me—“

Judy raised the gun and fired.

His footsteps scattered towards the door.

“Slippery, slippery fox.”

She focused on quieting her breathing as she sprinted through the rain, staring at his swaying tail, forcing herself to become hyper aware of every nearby audible sound. If she were to somehow lose sight of him, she would still be able to distinguish the sound of his running.

The sound of his breathing.

The sound of his wheezing—inevitable, close.

She knew this.

And when Nick began to gasp, Judy gained on him. She fired several shots. Damn fox managed to miss every single one. But as she reloaded, failing to lose her stride or direction, the screeching of breaks emerged from in front of her, forcing her to flinch and drop the gun.

In the absence of… well, anything, she looked up.

Nick had been hit by a red coupe. The headlights illuminated his wide eyes as he glared at the car for several moments, likely in shock, until it reversed, turned, and sped away.

She smelled the blood as she strode towards him. He continued to stare straight ahead, panting heavily, resting back on his two paws as his lower right leg bled out, the drips diluted by the rain.

Judy found herself slowing as she neared.

Was she… hesitating?

Focus.

She stopped in front of him. He blinked at her silhouette, and his exhales turned into wheezes.

“I-I-I don’t know what to tell you, agent—“ Nick began to use his elbows and his one good leg to scoot himself away, having to lower his back to the ground in order to effectively try to do so, “—I know you can see a future wh-where you don’t have to murder helpless predators for a living, and I know whoever raised your relentless and driven and murderous self would not be proud of the bunny you’ve become—“

Judy aimed her gun.

He closed his eyes for a brief moment as he gave his weight to his elbows, wincing quietly as he relaxed his legs, failing to cease his wheezing.

“…You don’t have to do this.”

Her trigger shifted under her twitches, but she couldn’t get herself to—

“Tell me what you think you can do.”

Nick immediately spoke.

“You know your boss? Your director? You know how practically every single animal in Zootopia is unaware of his qualifications or his inability to be relayed from his position? He didn’t get to the top through hard work and dedication, agent. You know this. I know you do. And I know you’re choosing to remain ignorant of all the lives he’s taken to get there, both predator and prey alike.”

Her grip threatened to falter.

“Do you know anything about what’s currently happening in Bunnyburrow? Do you know how many rabbits are being—“

“Stop,” she bit, a tremor in her upper arm forcing her to lower the gun.

She’d been so focused on this stupid fox. When was the last time she heard from her family?

“If I… if I let you go, what would you do?”

“Not ‘you.’ We. You can come with me. Obviously, looking at you, the feds aren’t currently concerned with a few rabbits gone missing. Neither are the cops, since Burning Mammal will be a month-long fiasco.”

Nick took a large, deep breath. His fear quietly shifted to Judy.

“We’ll drive down. If your director asks, say you’ve killed me. But when you find empty cottage after empty cottage and smell the lingering stench of feds saying ‘they’ll multiply fast enough to cover our tracks,’ you’ll know exactly where to start.”

With a groan, he straightened his back.

“This is bigger than the both of us. And as desperate as I am to change the generalized prejudice towards every predator in Zootopia, I wonder how much you’re willing to just trust me.”

She turned the safety back on.

“Let’s go, then.”

As a Dad: Leo Edition

note: hey everyone! happy Ramadan, happy Easter, happy Passover, happy Vaisakhi, happy Hanuman Jayanti, happy Mahavir Jayanti, and happy days to secular folks! i hope you all are having a safe holiday.

Authoritative

• there isn't much that we all collectively agree on more about leo than the fact that he's somewhat of a bossy dude

• that being said, he does mellow out in his older years and becomes more laid back...then he had children (biologically by some miracle or by adoption)

• he read every single baby book he could get his hands on but then they went out the window when he realized that parenting is nothing like what they say in books

• the 0-8 month phase wasn't so bad, his sleep schedule is wonky so mostly he's up with the baby. he's very calm, very soft spoken, and gentle with the baby when they're fussy cause they can't communicate

• bath schedule, eating schedule, sleep schedule, the man has schedules people.

• absolutely loves bath time cause he's the dad who will put the bubbles on his head to make the kid laugh (i dont make the rules)

• loves the pre-walking stage the most cause you just put them on the floor and let'em roll and crawl in a confined space

• lord help this man at the walking and talking stages

• he tries to get your kid to talk but all the kid wants to do is scream so..there's that idea gone

• when the kid wants to run around naked while leo's trying to get the diaper back on, now that is where he gets tested cause that little shit-

• incredible amount of patience though, especially with tantrums. splinter never raised his voice at him as a kid until he became a teen, so he wanted to carry that on with his own children

• now when your kid hits the 3-8 stage, oh boy. if leo could go grey, he would be grey.

• he tries to teach your child discipline and respect, and while your kid is respectful, unfortunately they have leo's sharp tongue and makes it everyone's problem

• leo believes in time outs or taking things away as punishment. he doesn't believe in spanking and thinks yelling accomplishes nothing. he does get a certain tone that makes it known he means business

• he knows full well your child is going to make mistakes and creates a safe environment to where your kid can come to him when this does happen without much punishment

• but we all know that's a perfect world and if it's leo's kid, their mouth is going to be their downfall

• he thought the 3-8 stage was bad until ages 13-17, oh boy.

• puberity is not on leo's side here

• grounding becomes more of a ritual and leo runs a tight ship. he will hold his grounding opinion until he thinks it should be lifted, no matter how long it takes

• of course your kid is also a ninja so sneaking out is a thing (leo can't get too mad cause he did the same but "do as i say and not as i do" is leo's famous line)

• reasonable parent and thinks carefully about how severe a punishment should be or if the circumstance really even calls for one

• chores, bedtime until they hit around 13, the kid must have at least an A/B average, a C is acceptable if the subject is particularly hard and the kid is trying their best

• dorky dad. just a dorky dad.

• dad sneezes

• doesn't strike me as a girl dad or boy dad cause he's so attentive no matter the gender

• he's the dad that doesn't call it babysitting cause it's his kids

• he will get down on the floor and play with his kids

• has a little girl? no problem dressing up and letting her do his makeup and nails

• has a little boy? wrestling and rough housing it is

• kid(s)will be respectful and smart, and just very genuinely nice kids

• kid(s)'ll also deck someone with no hesitation

• vegetables are non-negotiable

• very proud man when it comes to his children and never hesitates to praise them

• the children will each have special nicknames

• he's not the fun parent but is also not not the fun parent

• never misses an event, even though he has to attend in the shadows. he is always there

• affectionate dad, more verbally than physically, but he gives your kids head kisses all the time

• as long as the kids aren't trying to kill each other and are just playing, the noise doesn't bother him much...it's the silence that does

• definitely the type of dad to send 👍

Hi 👋👋

Uhh remeberrrr some time ago you asked someone (@12leokinnie, that’s me) to make an army dreamers edit? Yeah I wanted to work on it to send it to u, but I kinda lost motivation? Sorry. Anyway you seem very cool wanna be tmnt moots

why are you apologizing for being the coolest person I know—

I mean, you started making the actual edit!? That’s so amazing! All I do is listen to the song and day dream TGE SONG HUST CAME ON AHAHAHA— honestly though, the fact that you started working on such a project shows how creative you are. Don’t apologize for a lack of motivation, I would be a hypocrite if I didn’t tell you that I’ve been trying to rewrite my TMNT fanfic for a year (the anniversary will be in June ☠️)

I would love to be tmnt moots with you 🥺 TELL ME EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR FIXATION, YOUR FAV VARIATION OF THE TMNT MEDIA, YOUR OPINIONS—

[12leokinnie]

AAAAAA THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU JUST MADE MY NIGHT

[contaminatedlamb]

SAME HERE (but it’s day 😳) ngl I’ve been asking nature to send me a tmnt moot because all I do is lurk the TMNT space, reblog, and wish for someone to be my mutual 😭 I left the fandom during the pandemic and now I’m back, and agonizingly rewatching the 2012 version :D

[12leokinnie]

Really?? Damn

You just READ MY MIND me too broski and oh my GOD tmnt 12 is my favorite actually!! :D I mean it’s true I have to rewatch it from when I was little but I remember it pretty clearly, and it’s just as good as I remembered! Also I’m really into rottmnt too

Anyway URGH really happy to be you r mutual :DD gonna wish you a good night buddy it’s 23:31 for me

[contaminatedlamb]

OUR MINDS ARE CONNECTED /j

oh my goodness i feel like it’s difficult to find fellow lovers of tmnt2k12 bc firstly, it’s been over a year since the show premiered and there’s been so many GOOD variations of movies/shows/and comics go come out sense. I havent gotten into rottmnt because I’m already DEEP in 2012 brain rot and also. I’m so autistic I don’t like change. I can’t handle the different versions of my boys even though I know the show is good! 😭

Im rewatching the show for my fanfic rewrite! And for some reason I’m mortified over the fact and have to fight through 6 layers of imposter syndrome and second hand cringe to watch even one episode lol

IM HAPPY TOO— goodnight! It’s officially night for me :)
