Chapter 18’s gonna be a doozy, y’all! Can’t wait for Monday 🤓

(For my fanfic The Crescent’s Ascent on AO3. Check it out if you love Leo angst!)

Okay I’m not totally sure why I wrote this, but what if Leo didn’t make it when Mikey pulled him out of the portal? What would his future self say to him?

Find out in this short one-shot A Second Chance, out on AO3.

WARNINGS: Major character death, descriptions of grief and injury, hurt/no comfort

(I don’t normally write hurt/no comfort because I like happy endings, but once and a while I just need a good punch to the heart if you know what I mean)

I was working on a different one-shot about his dying goodbye to April but it got WAY TOO SAD and I couldn’t finish it, hehe 😅 Maybe someday I’ll work up the emotional courage, but today is not that day lol!

Yay, I’ve finally done it! I’ve finally figured out the plot line to the Crescent’s Ascent all the way to the ending! It’s gonna be a bumpy ride, but we’re gonna get there and I’m SO EXCITED for what’s to come! 😆 The ending is gonna be AWESOME!!! (At least in my opinion lol)

SUMMARY:

When Big Mama poisons Leo and causes him to lose his memory, chaos ensues as she strives to convince him that she is his mother. What started out as an attempt at a new Nexus champion quickly spirals into an unhealthy obsession, and Big Mama will do anything to make sure her precious Crescent never even wants to leave.

Meanwhile the brothers search frantically for their leader in blue, but will they be too late? Will they be able to find Leo and restore his memory before he is too far gone? After all, there are already things Leo has been hiding…

Alrighty, not my best work but here’s some concept art for chapter 12 of the Crescent’s Ascent that came out this morning! (Pathetic is so cute!)

The Crescent’s Ascent just reached 100 kudos!! I’m so happy, and thank you guys for all your support! This was my first Rise fic, and the other Sonic fic I wrote only got 4 kudos, so this means a lot. I’m so happy y’all are liking it, and I’m really excited for the next few chapters to come out.

Headcanon that even though Donnie is bad with feelings/physical touch, his brothers still seek him out for comfort because he's always there for them.

Leo wants to talk with someone about the argument he just had with Raph? Well, Donnie might be a bit awkward with emotions, but he's sure a good listener. He gives very honest advice; he'll tell Leo when he needs to go apologise, but he doesn't judge Leo or pry on the situation. Donnie's very calm about everything, and Leo gets very comfy just confiding in him about things.

Raph needs to not be alone because Savage Raph is acting up? Donnie is consistently in his lab. Sure, Donnie kicks his brothers out a lot, but that's mostly when Leo drops by to annoy him. Raph doesn't annoy Donnie, he doesn't necessarily want any kind of touch or special attention. He just needs to be around someone sometimes, and Donnie is perfectly fine to provide that.

Mikey is anxious/worried about something? Donnie is great at rationalizing stuff! He can and will spend twenty minutes explaining why the things Mikey is anxious about will never happen. Plus, Donnie is... surprisingly good at managing stress? His "data collection" is basically just an easy way for him to ground himself. Donnie has little tricks for when things get Too Much, and Mikey starts to pick up on these habits/use them to make himself feel better.

At first, I think Donnie is kinda oblivious to this, but once he realizes what's happening, he starts leaning into it? Like, he starts paying more attention when Leo wants to talk with him about stuff, instead of constantly dismissing his brother. He notices that Raph will come to his lair nearing a Savage episode, so he sets aside simple tasks for Raph to distract himself and feel useful. He realizes that Mikey is imitating him, so he keeps track of which coping mechanisms Mikey finds helpful.

Just... Donnie supporting his family, in his own way.

April O’Neil Voice Over 💛💚

Hey all! So I recently did an audition reel for April and Cassandra (Might post Cass later) and was really happy with how it turned out! This was my first time voicing her, and it was literally so much fun!

Please enjoy, and let me know what you think! :)

Edit for @lil-lavender3 ‘s “Weightless of the Rooftop (Will I Fly?)” fic! I’ve been absolutely loving it and thought this song and fanart fit really well. One of my favorite fics, ngl! Go check it out :)

Please enjoy this little Rise Leo sketch i doodled during college 💙😊

The Crescent’s Ascent

Hey all! Started a new rise fanfiction over on AO3 if you wanna check it out! Get ready for a crazy ride folks, we’ve got some Leo angst, protective siblings, identity crises, Senor Hueso being a father figure to Leo and Big Mama being extremely punchable! To quote Donnie: “Hold on to your gluteus maximi!”

If you can’t tell I’m really excited about this fic, and I hope y’all enjoy it!

Also apologies for such a simple poster, might do a cooler one later lol :)
