TEENAGE MUTANT VIGILANTES (TMV)

Prologue - Emptied Tank

AO3 Chapter here.

welp, the prologue is finally up! after weeks of trying to write it and giving up and restarted, i settled for a short poem as an introduction. the post explaining what actually happened is here!

i'm going to post chapter 1 soon as i'm finished writing it, i'm super hyped!

i'm really insecure my writing will come off too cringy to read as you guys know by the many times i've posted things and deleted them or immediately gone "this is bad i'm sorry" etc etc... however, i am incredibly passionate about TMV, i want to give this AU and the TMV squad the story they deserve after years of having characters and never making a real story with them.

thank you so much to anyone giving this fic a chance! and even if you don't read it, thank you so much for supporting the TMV squad on my blog! i really can NOT express enough how much i appreciate it. 🥹💖

AU MASTERPOST

TEENAGE MUTANT VIGILANTES (TMV)

new cover picture to be added!

A TMNT 2012 AU in which the Hamato brothers are Utrom mutated by the Kraang using Hamato Yoshi's DNA, moments before he comes in contact with one of the Kraang's lab rats and is mutated himself. They look like humans. They sound, act and fight like humans, too. But things aren't so simple when you're legally non-existent and possibly wanted by the law.

i answer asks with canon in mind. however, any asks towards the characters themselves have no relevance or effect on the fic canon!

TMV CHAPTER 3 OUT!

Science fiction was science fiction. April had sworn off believing the kind of outlandish alien stories that sporadically took over the news, she lived in the city now, nothing paranormal had happened in the almost 10 years she'd lived here. There was always another, rational, sane explanation, Kirby himself had taught her. But then what was this? And why hadn't he called her at all?

YAY!! sorry for the long break! i feel very energized to work more on TMV now, at my own pace :3 my fave scene has to be the car ride home! going to draw it asap! read it here!

TMV CHAPTER 4 IS OUT!

all i can say is i want to cry this chapter is SHIIITTTT!!! i promise it gets better- 😭

When the first traces of light started showing over the horizon, dim as they were, the siblings finally took their leave, though not before April gave them her username to keep in touch. She wished she could've invested in phones for each of them, though it was unlikely she could afford to do so considering… recent fluffy and furry developments. But she made a promise to collect and keep any electronics she could get her hands on for cheap (or free) - after all, she would've lost her mind sharing one device with three people for years. So there they were, walking through the empty streets, through the cold of the early, early morning. Carrying their weapons hidden on their backs. Oddly enough, for a good while, none of them spoke.

TMV CHAPTER 2 IS OUT!!

How peculiar. Short Asian boys showed up out of nowhere and casually annihilated a bunch of grown adults, they were on their way either "to" or "from" their martial arts class April honestly didn't believe they still needed, and now two of them had names of Italian renaissance artists? If the other two stood for Michelangelo and Raphael, she might've laughed, just a little bit.

exerpt from the chapter, 4483 words total! read it here! :D

thanks guys for yelling at me to finish it im really insecure about it after posting but i liked it- at least most of it- a LOT yesterday so it's just my brain being mean as always :P
