I haven’t watched a single episode of TMNT 2012 and yet I have been hyperfixating on 2012!Raph so hard for the past few days. He is so neat. He is so autism. He has so many meltdowns that nobody understands and middle school me can relate to that so hard. He thinks he’s a bad bitch who’s extremely tough and never affected by anything, but in reality he’s extremely sensitive and emotional and just expresses it through anger. He’s such a trainwreck. I love him.

i did it people, i finished it!
Summary:
The city is a dark and lonely place, crowded with people who don’t care. When it isn’t dark, and sunshine slithers through the cracks, it becomes dangerous for a creature like him. Darkness is cold, but light is unforgiving, and it burns. Oh, how it burns!
Yet the vampire has found a little ray of sunshine that warms him up inside and gives him shelter. He met a stranger who cares. For him. A stranger that brought a sad wizard to heal him, and who smiles often, and no matter how long the vampire waits, the smile doesn’t morph into anything else. It’s there to stay.
He hopes.
Hope is like a blanket. It comes with warm hugs and soft touches, growing until it becomes reality, or cracks into pieces.
It’s a dangerous thing to hope, when one is running from monsters.

This is a genuine question, and I'm fully prepared to back this reading up with evidence if you want, but how do you feel about the reading of Rise Raph having Dissociative Identity Disorder instead of/as well as autism? Does that change anything about Savage Raph for you?
I really don't know. I believe you about the evidence and I do believe Rise Raph is meant to have some kind of DID, but I don't have DID and I don't study DID, so I can't say for sure whether or not it's good representation, or how it might overlap with Rise Raph possibly being autistic. I do know that the term "Savage Raph" just makes me uncomfortable as a concept--"savage" is very loaded, and attaching it to mental health just makes me uncomfortable--but I can't judge it more than that.
