Xever Montes - Tumblr Posts
listen i'm currently having a lot of feels about 2012 Raphael and Xever ending up becoming best friends after "Baxter's Gambit", and their friendship being known to the other turtles (and Chris).
it'd be a friendship very much like Natasha and Clint's in "Civil War", particularly during the airport scene, when they're fighting each other, and Natasha hits Clint and goes "we're still friends, right?"
they're not the mushy, touchy-feely best friends obviously, they're the name-calling, "literally if anyone ever says anything bad about you i'd kill them but also you're such an asshole and i hate you" friendship.
(yes this post is what got me thinking about them)
Bonus because thinking about the two of them texting each other makes me laugh:
Raph: send me words of encouragement so i don't try to murder Mikey
Xever: there's no netflix in prison
*Bradford: I'm dating a fish.
Mikey: I don't get it, why is the saying "there are plenty more fish in the sea"? Do we have fins and gills? Are we underwater? No, we are mutants. We walk on two legs and we talk.
Leo: Can we just focus on the task at hand?
Mikey: No listen, this is a serious problem. Are there people walking around and dating fishes? We don't date fish, that's weird.
*no bc this NEEDS to be canon now
I want an AU where in space arc the Foot joins the turtles + April and Casey. I love the Foot and need more content with them, and I'd love to see them interacting with the turtles and Fugitoid too. Imagine it though.
Baxter, Anton, Donnie, and Fugitoid are science buddies
Xever and Raph being actual friends (and Casey makes it even nuttier)
Chris and Mikey binging Bradford's show
TC going back to dimension X and reliving all the post trauma from their childhood
April and Karai and Mona having girl time
Ivan getting drunk in some space bar
Raph and the whole Foot all being terrified of bugs (except Baxter, he's joining the bug cult)
Leo and TC both having to manage their groups and stop them from annihilating each other
Karai and her brothers bonding
Raph, Mona, Anton, and Ivan have a double date
The Foot wishing to be humans in the wyrm episode
Chris abuses the think-food-machine thing
Everyone goes into Mikey's mind
Xever seeing Armaggon and being a jealous little (fish) bitch
Anton and Ivan meet their 80s selves with the turtles
They become a huge family at the end
The fight when they get back to Earth would be fucking insane
*Random TMNT 2012 (mainly side characters) hc's bcuz hyperfixation
*(this is the best divider to ever exist btw)
*Warnings: Spoilers for TMNT 2012 ofc, mentions of gender dysphoria and trans related insecurity, transphobia, accidental arson, bullying, manipulation, ptsd, also the tone of the headcanons shift randomly also also typing quirk
*Chris Bradford is trans. )(e did a full transition, he did hormones, voice training, top and bottom surgery, a few different surgeries to make him look/feel more masculine, all the bells and whistles, even went the extra mile to do procedures to hide his surgery scars. )(e's closeted and does about everything in his power to make sure no one even question that he was assigned female at birth because he's scared of his social image of being the great macho man, Chris Bradford, crumbling.
*Leo mainly or solely uses fandom and fanfic socials like Wattpad, AO3, Amino, Tumblr, and maybe Twitter. She mainly interacts with Space )(eroes and Crognard The Barbarian fan posts and shows a special interest in gender swap aus.
*Later on, post show with Muckman's help the mutants are actually able to freely walk around humans without them completely flipping out and starting a mob to witch hunt after them.
*Speaking of walking around humans, Napoleon and the frogs down in Louisiana are considered local urban legend and humans get really excited when they spot the frogs in the woods.
*Dr. Rockwell is a very big coffee enjoyer and used to secretly steal coffee from the nearby shops around the mighty mutanimals hideout and on the rare occasion when someone caught him and called him out he would always use the excuse of the shops being owned by big corporations.
*Don Visioso is a deadbeat father of 5. )(e also has had multiple wives and many divorces.
*Mondo Gecko will call people posers if he's jealous enough of them.
*Ivan Steranko is also trans but has only had hrt and face masculinizing surgery and refuses to get top and bottom surgery.
*Anton Zeck is incredibly smart and performed extremely well in high school and even got free scholarships for how well he did.
*Shinigami is a big video game nerd and will geek out if anyone mentions one of the games she plays.
*The reason Anton hated the mutant name Mikey gave him at first is because it either sounds a lot like or straight up is a nickname old bullies of him gave in order to make fun of him.
*Premutation, Chris acts transphobic towards Xever (despite Xever being cis) out of jealousy and insecurity.
*Baxter Stockman is either a gay aroace trans mspec nonbinary man or a cishet ally. No in-between.
*Mini April cluster!!!:
*April has a deep love for literature and writes poetry in her spare time.
*She almost burned down the culinary class in her school once.
*She's questioning aroace.
*She felt extra empathy for Muckman because he reminded her of Kirby a little bit.
*She likes to hide stickers around the lair whenever has them on her person.
*She thoroughly enjoys having long conversations with each of the individual turtles. (It's her favorite way to spend time with anyone tbh)
*April does eventually take some time to properly learn Japanese and becomes pretty decent at speaking and reading it.
*)(er and Donnie often like to geek out together whenever they find anything new about aliens (both species they haven't seen yet and ones they know well like the kraang).
*End of the mini April cluster!!!
*Kirby O'Neil is a pretty decent cook. That man can make a mean chicken stew.
*Shinigami actually owns multiple cats. 2 ragdoll, 1 sphinx, 1 Persian, and 3 British shorthairs (I could name them all, but I don't wanna). Also, the majority of them are black cats. She feeds strays, too.
*The last headcanon is much to Karai's dismay because she is somewhat allergic. She gets headaches, her skin gets slightly irritated and she gets the sniffles if she's around cats for too long.
*Casey's younger sister wants to be a hair stylist when she grows up, so Jones let's her do his hair every once in a while and he flexes it to every one at the lair like: "Oh? My hair? Yeah, my sister did it for me. Pretty metal, what she did with it, right?"
*Tigerclaw is the only Foot Clan member to not bully Baxter Stockman.
*Someone manipulated and lied to Alopex in order to make her hate and hunt down her brother.
*After season 4, Baxter Stockman leaves New York and takes over Stockman Industries. (If you're unaware of what that is, it's on billboards that the turtles pass throughout the show the most notable appearance being in the ending scene of the final season 4 episode, 'Owari'.)
*Slash deep down still misses The Newtralizer.
*Leatherhead kind of freaks out (apologies for the bad wording) when someone fully wraps their arms around his neck when hugging him because it reminds him of the restraints the Kraang put him in.
*Pigeon Pete learns how to bake so he can make his own bread.
*The turtles get a Wii (or whatever the universes equivalent is).
*Mondo Gecko gets an old Xbox and plays Tony )(awk games, Bully, and Twisted Metal on it.
*Ivan and Anton actually move out to New Jersey post show.
*Alr, that's all for now, toodles!!!
