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!)
This is literally me and my twin on our birthday lol! (She’s two minutes older, sigh)
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!
Cassandra Jones Voiceover 🖤❤️💜
Hey all! Here’s part two of that VO audition I did, this time featuring Cass! Golly, she has a lot of passion in her voice and it was really fun to try out lol! Hope you enjoy :)
You can find Part 1 (April O’Neil) here 👇
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…
The Crescent’s Ascent
Just finished another little poster for the Crescent’s Ascent! First time trying to draw Hueso, but I was really happy with the way it turned out! Hope you like it :)

How am I supposed to explain this word to my writing software lol
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. I hope you guys will like them too ^^
The updated schedule is Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays! See ya then!

Thanks again, and please enjoy my little doodle lol❤️🧡💙💜
Me calculating how long Leo and the Kraang were in the Prison Dimension for my fanfiction (It took me forever to get the correct ratios and conversions of units)👇
If you don’t want my math to be in vain you can read The Crescent’s Ascent here lol ;)
YES YES YES!!!!!! PLEASE BRING BACK RISE!!!!!
RISE FANS GO MAKE SOME FUCKING NOISE LINK IS RIGHT THERE IN THE WORD NOISE GOGOGOGOGOGO
NO WAY.
NO STINKING WAY.
I LOOKED UP HOW LONG LEO WAS IN THE PRISON DIMENSION AND THIS CAME UP.
NO WAY.
(Full disclosure: this is the little ai box at the top of a web search, so I literally have zero clue where it pulled this data from)
Hey all! BTW I released chapter 10 of The Crescent’s Ascent early today instead of Friday since I was getting pretty backed up on chapters, lol! But anyways I hope you like it, and I’m so excited for the upcoming story XD
Here’s some concept art for The Crescent’s Ascent chapter 8! Really excited for this concept to develop :)
In case you haven’t read the fic yet you can read it 👉here👈
it's april! i like her design sm
Oofta, I’ve been writing future scenes for the Crescent’s Ascent and made myself cry last night. I’m sure it’s normal for fanwriters, but this is getting so much darker than I had thought when I wrote the first chapter and had the idea 😬 I mean, I love it but like it’s really giving me a punch to the gut. But in a good way, yk? Hehe, stay tuned! I promise it will have a happy ending!
You can read the fic here :)
Leo Crescent 💙
Hey all! Here’s some more concept art for my fic The Crescent’s Ascent! Hope you like it, and you can read the fic here
I’ve been wanting these two in a band ever since I heard them sing in Snow Day
punk rock Leo and April!! I need ppl to draw this duo more-
if you can’t tell I rlllllllly like drawing baggy street clothes
Chapter 7 of the Crescent’s Ascent is out!! I’m already working on chapters 8, 9 & 10 and boy are things getting intense! I still can’t understand how I can love Leo so much but want to put him through all this. Like I’m writing it, but I keep deviating from my plan and adding characters and chapters that were nonexistent when I started planning this.
(BTW thank you all so much for 74 kudos! It might seem like a small number to some of you, but it’s my first Rise fic and my second fanfiction overall and I only received 4 kudos on the other one. I’m so happy people are liking it!)
Also in case you haven’t read it yet, basically if you like Leo angst, manipulative Big Mama, worried brothers, trauma and amnesia mashed together then this fic is for you! I update on Mondays and Fridays :)
You can check out the fic here 😊
YEAH more Christian Rise fans!! 🙏❤️
I?? YOU'RE CHRISTIAN TOO?????
AhHHHHhhh brOOoooo it's so hard to find genuine Christians anymore 😭😭 especially online. I've been too scared to say that I am one cause likeeee everyone always thinks that It's cringe or they don't agree with the same things as me so they might wanna argueee
No, but I got so excited when I found out that one of my favorite artists (Chiscribbs) was Christian too.
You can answer this ask privately if you want. I'm still not sure if I want people on my blog to know I'm Christian. It's been really bothering me though cause I'm not really supposed to be hiding the fact that I am just to fit in, but I already made mutuals with a lot of people who share opposing beliefs and I really don't want to stirr up conflict with anyone cause then it's not fun anymore. I feel like I should come clean about it, but at the same time, I don't want people to get mad at me or to think that I think I'm better than them or smth. I srsly regret making mutuals with those people now though. I'm trying to be more cautious with who I become mutuals with-
Anyways, sorry for likee dumping all this in your ask box. I just have a lot of respect for people who are openly Christian cause it just seems so scary to me lol
YOOOO! This is literally so cool finding so many awesome rise artists who are Christian too! And you don’t have to share on your blog if you’re Christian, but don’t be afraid to share yourself and Christ to others!
God says that yes, all Christians will receive hate one way or another, that’s just the sad truth. Like, I haven’t seen a single Christian artist out there pushing their values onto others who think differently; it’s usually the other way around, and I would know. But we can do our Best and share our art and Love to others, and ignore haters. Pray for them, actually. They don’t know it, bless them and love them as much as you can!! >:)
BLESSINGS!!! 💕💗
I cannot describe my happiness on seeing Rise content in 2025 on the TMNT insta page 🥹
(BTW let’s blow this up with #saveROTTMNT comments and other messages and hashtags like it 😉)
Prison Dimension Leo ⚔️
Please enjoy a little art I did while listening to Smash Into Pieces and trying to avoid a fam argument lol. I thought it turned out looking really cool and was so happy with it! Hope you like it!
Old plane speed paint ❤️ I got so many turtle drawing stacked up :3
This legitimately one of the best Rise Movie edits I’ve ever seen 😭😭😭
Oh my gosh lol 🤣
Screaming:
Leo, Donnie, and Mikey: *Screaming*
Raph: *Runs into the room* What’s wrong, Mikey!?
Leo: Wait, why are you asking Mikey that when Donnie and I are also here?
Raph: Because Mikey wouldn’t scream unless it’s an emergency. You two scream whenever you have the chance.
Ahhhhh tio hueso is one of my favorite headcanons!!
Had to draw our beloved Boneman
Chapter 6 of The Crescent’s Ascent is out!! Yay!! Please enjoy more concept art, more is probably coming soon lol
