I have absolutely nothing against the turtles being cat people, love Klunk with my whole heart, but it'd be cool sometime to see them be dog lovers too. I just love the thought of Raph getting to play growl and wrestle and do tug of war with a big boy like I do with my dog. Mikey cuddling a "lap dog" who's like eighty+ pounds and laughing at all the kisses and playing with its soft floppy ears. My dog sits in front of me and stares soulfully and puts his paw on my arm and nuzzles his face against my knees when he can tell I'm upset, even if I'm trying to hide it; Leo could use that emotional intelligence and support when he's trying to repress how he's feeling. Not sure how well Don and all his delicate work would get on with a dog but I'm just saying. Maybe Casey should have a dog the turtles can love vicariously

okay i couldn't get this idea out of my head so i drew a sketch of leo and his emotional support dog, da vinci <3

Raph and Don each put one arm behind Mikey's shell and one under his legs, carefully not dislodging the quilts he’d wrapped around himself. He feels a little like a giant burrito, being picked up and placed on a softer, flatter surface, and that image makes him giggle. “Now he’s laughin’.” Raph shoots Don a quizzical look. “Has he finally lost it?” Mikey tries to explain the picture in his head between spurts of laughter, tears rolling down the sides of his face, but he doesn’t get very far.

I will make that fanart of that show I'm watching. I will make fanart of that fic I'm reading. I will make that fanart of that song I'm listening. I will make that fanart for my friends' OCs that I love learning more about. It will probably take another thousand years but I will make those fanarts. I just need to do things at my own pace.

To creators (writers, artists, musicians, every single one of you who create for love), I love you, I love you, I love you. Thank you for creating stuff that makes the world a bit more bearable to go through each day. I see you, I love you and I cherish you.

April nods to the chair next to her, and holds up the bowl. “Wanna grab some more?” “Vanilla or chocolate?” “Strawberry.” “Awesome.” Raph pulls out the giant tub of ice cream from the freezer, and grabs a spoon for himself. Instead of serving a scoopful to April, he pushes the bowl out of the way, and expectantly places the tub between them.  She snorts again, but helps herself. “Straight from the container. I’ve taught you well.”

With AO3 going down for almost a full day on Friday, I've got an idea for anyone preemptively downloading fics to read while the site is inaccessible: leave a comment to let the author know. Just something simple like 'hey, I love this fic so much I've downloaded it so I can read it later!'

"Oranges?" Raph blinks. "Seriously?" "Tangerines, actually. Helps reduce stress. I read that in a Yahoo article." Leo pushes it closer. "Go on." Raph raises a brow, but obliges. The burst of flavor wakes him up further, and he jokes wryly, "Oh, yeah, I feel the stress just melting away." He exhales a laugh, but there's a bitterness to the curve of his mouth. "Good for you." Raph pauses, and then offers him one too. He snorts weakly.
