I have seen other people  do this introduction thing well so  I will be brief.

Prouns: she/her

Nickname: just call me Sweeps 🤙 

I'm a digital artist/hobby animator.

I'm also a nineties kid with her own kid and spouse.

You will find any of my art-related things under the tag Sweeps art and if you only want to see my animation-related things then I tag them under Sweepclean animation.

If you have any requests or questions I will be happy to be of assistance just have a little patience with me since I am dyslexict so I take my time writing and reading *｡･+(人*´∀`)+･｡*.

Ps/ I do not do commissions.

Raph is like 4 years old here but the twins are huge so he gets to be extra small now.

I'm going to let him enjoy this.

Ok but where is my Toddler Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003 content fr.

I have this idea of a fic of ‘Back to the Egg’/‘Toddler Mutant Ninja Turtles’ but with 2003 Raph as a very flustered caretaker for his three brothers who have no self-preservation skills lol at some point in the ‘fast forward’ arc. This is a sketch I did way back before I got super busy and I kinda hate it. But I have not posted in a long while so uh.

I might finish it idk

->COMMISSIONS OPEN! Link to Kofi page <-

I am no writer but this thing occupies my brain a lot.;

Michelangelo was watching over the battlefield. He was the commander for a battalion of short stacked triceratons that fought and battled along his side infiltrating the enemy lines, leaving no survivor behind.  The air felt sandy against the skin and the smell wasn't worse than the one back home in the sewer. 

He missed it, he missed everything his brothers, April, Casey.  Those late nights in front of the TV watching movies and playing video games, he missed it so deeply.

 It hurt more than any blow at his plastron or the scars forever scarring his wrist after the chains that held him down.

His dreams haven't been pleasant. Michelangelo managed to sleep by taking micro naps whenever he could, it was his way to function properly, but it isn't easy, it makes it impossible for him to dream.  To not get that good Ram sleep, how that's how Michelangelo wanted it that way cause if he were to sleep deeply, he would either dream about his family waiting back home only to to wake up and he would realize that nothing of that was real, that he wasn't home cooking family dinners, that he wasn't with his family.  And he wasn't in their embrace.

Or it could be that he was dreaming about this day in the prison reliving every moment again and again up to his escape and his friends' sacrifice.

On days like that, he would be more quiet and train harder than he has ever done before. Even his own wise commander would keep his distance from him on those days when he dreams.

Michelangelo was tired. Oh, so tired.

He was tired of all this, but he had made a promise, a promise not to give in, this war would soon be over and the enemies would fall behind; they just needed one more pushback.  And they could take the royal palace,he would be able to end this, and the senseless war would end this violence and finally go home to be with his family.  But he just needed one thing. Yes, one simple thing to end it.

His revenge against Seri.

Ok im back to thinking about 2003 Mikey and Splinter’s dynamic…

I think the biggest rift(?) in their relationship might be the miscommunication of which role is needed at that precise moment, and the other unknowingly taking up the wrong role (the “roles” being father vs teacher for Splinter, and son vs student for Mike)

Like in Touch and Go, Splinter takes Mikey out on a 1-1 with him to train him. He tells Mikey that he “has a natural affinity for the martial arts, but mentally [his] mind is undisciplined and unruly.” Splinter is looking to make this into a teaching lesson, but Mikey counters him with “I’m a teenager, sensei. Undisciplined and unruly is what we do best.” Which to me sounds more like a son talking to their dad than a student to their teacher (I know Mikey calls Splinter “sensei” but as a homeschooled kid, it gets hard to distinguish the roles and I totally get where Mikey is coming from).

Or in Grudge Match, after learning Mikey will have a rematch with the big ugly purple guy, he asks Splinter to train him. Splinter mocks Mikey, bringing up all the ways Mikey has excused himself from training - pizza, comics, tv. Mikey is looking for a teacher and Splinter is handling it more as a father would (i.e. letting your kids mess up and deal with the consequences, which I’ll point out isn’t a bad parenting tactic as long as it’s relatively safe for the kid, and at the time Splinter thought it was safe because they didn’t know the magic safety spells were gonna be sabotaged).

You do get gems like in the Big Brawl, when Splinter and Mikey were meant to fight, but Splinter sees how much Mikey is enjoying this and gives up his spot for his son. I think that’s a good example of Mikey as a son needing a father more than a teacher, and Splinter fulfilling that role. As a teacher, even if Splinter still gave up his spot, he likely would have still fought Mikey for a bit to train him further. Instead, he lets Mikey save his strength and gives up the spot.

(Those were all the examples I could think up off the top of my head but if you can think of more, share)

By no means is their relationship without flaws, which is realistic and i love that about it. I’m just a sucker for parent-kid relationships and I would have loved to see more of this, or even better, have them address it because I’ll bet I’m not the only one who can relate.

Anyway this is definitely something I’m putting in all my writing.
