Older Sister April Has My Heart - Blog Posts

April O’Neil for my TMNT au

I got new pens and pencils at the time of drawing this and got very excited

Aprillllll!!!

- 18

- 5’2

- At the start of the story she’s just ending high school but throughout the course of it she’s mainly in college

- Her major is journalism with a minor in chemistry

- Camera bag, never has the time to set it up

- Bleached her hair and it came out ginger, she likes it, roots are always visible

- Good older sister to the turtles, met them when she was ~10

- Met Raph first (I’ll do a whole post on how they met eventually)

- Refuses to wear the glasses she’s been prescribed and hates contacts

- Soooo stubborn

- Didn’t have friends in high school

- Donnie and her are besties

- Donnie hates her fashion sense

- Mikey keeps stealing from her (help)

- Very protective over her younger brothers + Casey

- Best social awareness out of the group

- Weilds a bat that she got as a gift from Casey

- Considered the weird kid at school

- Always has energy

- Her father (Kirby) and mother (Alice) have met the turtles and Splinter over a family dinner. They though that they were weird but ok for April as she didn’t have any other friends. They were pretty open about being mutants but her parents didn’t seem to catch on and just thought they had some weird birthmarks or conditions. The turtles come over a lot.

- Very happy when they meet Karai, and overall very excited to meet new people

- Name anything and she knows how to do it because she’s had a job that required it before (SCUBA, sharpening knives, crane operating, etc)

- Super supportive, up for anything
