Always a pleasure to see another Bleach and KnB enjoyer, especially with those dudes as faves. Grimmjow wiping the floor with Ichigo and Rukia will never not be iconic.

And a couple of Aomine plus Momoi will always have my heart :)

Thanks for the answers, was fun to read. 🩶

I do enjoy those two, Bleach mainly because of Grimmjow, even that I like Zaraki a lot too, while KNB because of, well, too many good characters, great humor, great animation, expressions, voice actors, the feelings and moods you get while watching! Heck, I have been jumping on the couch while screaming my boys to score, ahah! :D I even cried my eyes out of my head at the end of KNB movie when Kagami was crying! But yeah, my main trio is Aomine, Kuroko and Kagami. They all are adorable (dorks) in their own way :'D

Never been a fan of shipping Aomine and Momoi (I'm heck picky with hentai couples) but Aomine and Kagami? LET'S GO! :'D (I'm such a gay slut)

Thank YOU for tagging me! ❤️ It was so nice, fun and refreshing, always a pleasure in fact. I'm glad you enjoyed that post of mine :3

I want to say your fics and your art mean the world to me your TMNT stuff has gotten me through some dark times thank you.

Oh.... Oh... OOHH! This message, I'm in tears! My heart is so close of exploding! Thank you SO MUCH for letting me know! I would have never known this otherwise! I am sorry you've gone through some dark times but I am HECK HAPPY you made it! I hope you are doing better now <3

It means the world to me when my works have this big influence to my fans / followers / friends and that people reach out to me, letting me know about this - just like how you did. This is WHY I create (or try nowadays) since if I can help someone even slightly, one way or another, with my works, I have done a pretty darn good job! :)

Your message was a blessing to me on this day and I am honestly and truly forever grateful you reached out to me and let me know <3 This made me feel I have not write and draw for nothing in the end *hug*

Hi there! I have a question if you don't mind me asking, are you still making TMNT art? I'm just curious and I don't want to sound annoying or rude.

I don't mind at all! You are not being annoying or rude either :) if anything, I am HAPPY you were brave enough to approach and ask! I value and appreciate that in people.

Currently no, I'm not. I was in TMNT fandom for 10 years straight, active too, and that was it. Not the first time this has happened to me, tho. I used to be in Dragon Ball Z fandom for 10 years straight, being very active in it as well, and after 10 years it just stopped being my thing out of blue. It just dropped out of my life. Nothing in it interested me anymore or brought me joy.

Sadly the same thing has happened with the turtle boys (not that Raph still wouldn't be my favorite!). Of course I have fanfics which I would like to finish but when? Don't know.

Currently I'm focusing on things / fandoms / characters which brings me joy, helping me to keep my head above the water.

I HOPE I, one day in the future, would return back on drawing TMNT but right now... I am not making any promises.

Thank you for your understanding! <3

7.) Which iteration is your favorite?

10.) Which version of Leonardo is your favorite?

11.) Which version of Raphael is your favorite?

12.) Which version of Donatello is your favorite?

13.) Which version of Michelangelo is your favorite?

7.) I have to say Rise. Even tho 2003 is SO SSOOOO CLOSE behind it! Those big and muscular Bay Boys (Raph and Leo especially) tingle my heart as well ~ 10.) Aah, no, this is bad! I absolutely love Rise Leo BUT I also love 2016 Leonardo... 2003 is cute boy too who is easiest for me to write. So... Can I choose all 3 of them? :'D

11.) Old Raphael from the future in TMNT Adventures comics from 90's. It was love at the first sight and that love still holds, decades later <3 Of course I love Rise, 2003 and 2014 Raph too! But that old man... Yeah, ahah!

12.) 2003, definitely! He is so calm and gentle, no matter what the situation is.

13.) Rise, hands down! He is adorable, cute and just so sweet little ball of sunshine! But dear God, don't get on his bad side :'D He eats you alive, ahah! I hate to say this but... I find all other versions of Mikey being... hell annoying. So THANK GOD for Rise Mikey who is NOT annoying! <3

Leoraph is based XD there’s something about them Fire and Water

LeoRaph just CLICKS together SO HARD! :D Like no any other turtle pair matches THAT well and tight, ahah!

They are different and still so much alike one way or another :) They make each other whole, so to say (if it makes sense).

I know you're not really in the fandom anymore but is it ok to dm you? I think you are cool to talk too

Of course, naturally and always! Anyone can DM me without the need to ask permission first! :) Of course negative messages / people I will delete and block. If anyone approaches with normal, common and kind message, sure! Come on, come on! Let's chat! :D

And because I'm not drawing TMNT stuff currently doesn't mean I couldn't talk about turtle boys :D heck, I talk with @slady-ao3 a lot about turtles and other stuff :3

So yeah, always feel free to message me! I'll reply sooner or later at some point (this depends A LOT of my mood, energy level etc)

TMNT Ask Game: 32 & 33 =)

32.) What was the first thing you've made for TMNT? - Oh gosh, I can't remember since I drew my first turtle stuff 30 years ago :'D But I'm positive it was Raphael... if not Krang :'D I honestly can't remember, ahah... (traditionally done, pencil and paper since back then there was no internet, no laptops, no drawing tablets etc).

33.) What is your favorite thing you've made for TMNT? - From fic it's definitely Over The Seas. Not only it's my favorite but so many love it too which has been MIND BLOWING! I honestly have been caught with a surprise how many of you all love it! I wrote it with: "Njah, just gonna get it out of my head. None won't care anyway." and BOOM! You guys shoot me with so much love towards this fic! I am forever grateful and over the moon! <3 - From art, gosh, there's many which are my favorite so I can't choose just one :'D Top Leos: Loving everything in these what I managed to get out of myself! There's times when it's hard for me to believe I made these, ahah! :'D Yokai VS Leo. Fanart for Hummerhouse since I love her fanfic: TMNT and the Legendary Creatures! I am heck proud of that yokai and the fact I actually managed to do a background :'D Blind baby Leo au. Cutest freaking thing I have ever created! :D Old Raph from the Future with his younger self. I just love it, I truly do! Not to mention when I posted it on DA back in the days, there was some amazing artists who complimented my line work on this art! Chibi Leo / Chibi Raph with Nei. These are my "Two to go arts" when I need to cheer myself up. I just love it how they are so cute and funny - and they do cheer me up, every time! :D

ALL arts shown here can be found in my Tumblr with #neis drawing tag! Sorry for long post / reply! ^^;
