#call friends.. text.. infodump... open up...

Leonardo:

Leo is the most obvious about his crush but tries to play it cool with “leader charisma.” He fails adorably.

Leo absolutely practices his opening lines in the mirror before he sees you. He’ll put on his best "suave leader" voice, lean against the bathroom wall, and say things like, "Hey, what's up? Just led a massive mission, no big deal." Raph always catches him doing this and mercilessly records it.

He memorizes every little thing you mention (favorite drink, music, hobbies).

“Oh, you like that band? I definitely didn’t look up all their songs after you said that…”

Whenever you actually talk to him, all his practice goes out the window. If you compliment him or smile at him a little too long, his voice hits pitches that only dogs can hear.

He tries to act like the cool, responsible, fearless leader whenever you're around. This usually results in him trying to do a cool sword flip and accidentally launching his katana into the ceiling.

He will always try to walk on the outside of the sidewalk closest to the street when you hang out, or hold doors open for you. He read online that it’s "gentlemanly," but he does it so aggressively that it’s mostly just funny.

If you text him, he stares at the message for ten minutes, types out three different paragraphs, deletes them all, and responds with "Haha yeah 😎."

Then he throws his phone across the room in embarrassment.

Raphael:

Raph is in heavy denial at first. “She’s just a friend. A really cute, smart, funny friend. Shut up, Donnie.”

Raph’s flirting strategy is 100% just lifting heavy things in your general vicinity. If you need a jar opened, he will sprint across the room to do it. He’ll casually bench-press a manhole cover while asking how your day was, hoping you notice his biceps.

Despite his tough-guy exterior, he turns the color of his bandana if you initiate physical contact. If you hug him or grab his arm, he completely freezes, his brain short-circuits, and he forgets how to speak English.

If someone bumps into you on the street or gives you a weird look, Raph immediately steps in front of you, puffing out his chest. You have to gently remind him that you don't need him to fight the guy who accidentally stepped on your shoe.

The other three know exactly how he feels about you and use it against him. Mikey will purposely ask you questions about guys you think are cute just to watch Raph grind his teeth in the background.

Gets flustered when you call him “Raphie” or any nickname. He’ll grumble but his tail is wagging.

When he's alone, he punches his mattress out of frustration because he doesn't know how to tell you he likes you. But he's also the one most likely to remember your favorite snacks and awkwardly shove them into your hands without making eye contact.

Late-night texts you (mostly memes and “u good?” at 2 a.m.) because he can’t stop thinking about you.

Donatello:

Donnie falls hard and fast. You smiled at him once and he wrote a 12-page analysis titled “Why She’s Perfect” in his private notes app.

Donnie's love language is infodumping. If he has a crush on you, he will aggressively share his hyperfixations. You will know everything about Attack on Titan, the intricacies of K-pop group lore, and how he built his bo-staff. If you actually listen and ask questions, he will internally propose to you on the spot.

He makes you things. It starts small—fixing your cracked phone screen or speeding up your laptop. Then it escalates. Suddenly, your backpack has a solar charger, and a self-deploying umbrella.

He has definitely deep-dived your social media. He knows your favorite bands, your aesthetic, and your birthday. He tries to bring these things up naturally in conversation, but it usually comes out like, "Statistically speaking, someone with your astrological sign would enjoy this specific matcha latte I bought you."

He is incredibly smooth over text. He uses the perfect emojis, sends you hilarious, highly-curated TikToks, and flirts confidently. But in person? He avoids eye contact, stutters, and hides behind his tech goggles.

He constantly compares your dynamic to his favorite anime romance tropes and gets flustered.

Fantasizes about slow dancing with you in the lair while playing lo-fi beats he made specifically for you.

Michelangelo:

Mikey has zero chill. Everyone knows he has a crush on you, including you. He is loud, affectionate, and constantly hovering around you like a happy golden retriever.

His main goal is to make you laugh. He will do impressions, physical comedy, and improv routines just to see you smile. If he gets a genuine laugh out of you, he will ride that high for an entire week.

You are his favorite muse. His sketchbooks are full of you in superhero poses, eating pizza, or as a beautiful warrior queen. If you sit next to him, he’ll casually slide a perfectly drawn portrait of you across the table with a little heart in the corner.

He is very hands-on. He’s the first to pull you into a massive bear hug, he’ll lean against your shoulder when you're watching movies, and he always wants to play with your hair. He uses physical affection to communicate what he's too shy to say out loud.

Constantly tries to impress you with skate tricks, dance moves, and terrible (but endearing) pick-up lines.

He is your biggest fan. If you wear a new outfit, he will gasp loudly and hype you up.

"Are you kidding me right now?! Look at you! You look like a movie star!"

amyways this all comes to a head when someone offhandedly mentions "Montreal Jeannette" to ilya when he's in boston for drinks. ilya who, naturally, texts shane, has an aneurysm over it, and proceeds to bully marleau as soon as theyre alone. in that order ofc.

(cut to shane calling jj first for probably the third time ever since they became friends; saying "really??? Boston Maylene??" in THE MOST affronted voice; and hanging up).

Okay this one is stupidly long because I decided to go the extra mile and even make a wholeass fucking sidestory during the events of Deltarune so be warned for lots of text/infodumping. Gives some context for the shit going on in the art LMAO. I plan to make a post with just the art separately as well. VERY long infodump below.

Since i have been learning czech for three years today, i want to answer some frequently asked questions i get about learning czech.

1 Are you fluent yet?

No but im on my way... fluency is complicated to define and its not very easily obtained. Especially when you dont live in a country that speaks the language you are learning. I started learning english 20 years ago... and im still not entierly sure if i can call myself fluent in english. I might have to move to czechia some day if i want to be fluent in czech.

2 ...But can you say 'hello', 'good bye' and so?

Yes, ahoj/dobrý den. na shledanou.

3 Why do you learn czech, how did it start?

I once found a book about prague and it had czech text in it, i thought the language looked weird and beutiful and i was so intrested so i opened up duolingo and started practicing. From that point i later joined discord servers and started to czech people, then i met even more czech friends after i started my blog and made my discord server. I love czech so much, it is like glitter and sparkles in my mind and soul. It is the most adorable languae i know. The letters have hats! I repeat : THE LETTERS HAVE HATS! I love them so much, they are like precious creatures to me. Look : Š Ř Ž Č Ě.

Czech makes me so happy and has improved my life in so many ways. I am more confident, hopeful, and social, happier, braver, smarter thanks to this amazing language. It made me finally want to start building a future for myself after years of mental illness.

4 Do you have any czech family?

No my family is swedish. Most of them dont know any czech, but i thaught my mom to say dobrý den and děkuju when we went to prauge togheter. She also picked up nejfialovější and řoo řooo from me.

5 How did you learn czech?

I have had to figure out what learning styles work for me and i have gotten to know myself better with what works and what doesnt. I have autism so i learn diffrently than most other people, this can be tricky to figure out and it takes a lot of tries and experiments. I chat a lot in czech and i make blog posts. This blog has helped my czech grow a lot. Interactive learning is extra important for language learning. I have wonderful czech friends and followers who gladly help me when czech is difficult. I try my best to be consistant and learn czech in some way, either activly or passivly every day. It has been hard this year since i moved and started school, i cant study czech as much as i would like. I had a lot of free time before i started going to school so i could spend as much time as i wanted on czech. I went to brno for summer school last year and i learned a lot of czech that i never would have learned otherwise.

6 Is czech a difficult language?

....

Actually i dont want to tell you. Go figure this one out for yourself by learning czech. you will se :)

Ok ok ok so even native speakers say czech grammar is hard right? I hesitate to say yes to this question because it doesnt tell the full story. My only true and honest answer to this question would be a 3 hour long infodump... I can sum it up by saying that : Yes czech is hard according to most standards. Although there are times when czech is the easiest thing in the world. I have defeated my social anxiety in many instances because i am just so hyped that i get to speak czech. Looking at czech declencion tables has helped me calm down from overstimulation/anxiety attacks. Speaking czech to myself helps me relax and fall asleep. It is paradoxical how it can be so hard yet so easy.

(literally all art here is by soda, the official phighting artist and most of it is from the discord, yes including that cat. i just made it bounce...)

broker my blorbo the broker they do brokering things yeah you know theyre part of the church of the true eye and stuff, but did you know! theyre constantly being caught and imprisoned by ban hammer , being sent to the banlands and somehow ESCAPING????

aka Dante and Laurance just figured out about the missing people over the news and Zenix saw it with Sasha and Gene, Vylad just got off of their plane from Europe (a large town in Gal’ruk with no internet access because how tf does the entire country of Europe exist in this universe) expecting their family but instead reads a newspaper about the Lycans

So Dante and Laurance are freaking out (Dante thought Garroth and Zane were on a camping trip with everyone else) and Zenix (who has a soft spot for Garroth bcs he taught him how to ride a bike, thanks Amnesia for that hc) makes a mad dash over to Laurance’s house only to find he isn’t there, then runs to Dante’s house and busts open the door much to Dante and Laurance’s surprise

Meanwhile Vylad is getting a whole bunch of nothing from trying to text people for the first time in months, their sibling gc has been quiet for months and even the Not Alone Buddies gc has been silent recently, not even a random meme or Travis selfie. So Vylad thinks of people close to their family and Laurance pops into their head immediately. Then follows Vylad trying to call him.

Cut to Dante is scolding Zenix for breaking into his house while Laurance’s phone rings, he picks it up and is extremely surprised to see Vylad calling him. The surprise goes away once he remembers the news cast and he answers.

Long story short Vylad arrives at Dante’s house as well, suitcase and all, and both Dante and Laurance get a surprise when Zenix immediately recognizes Vylad and they treat each other like old friends (because they are, Vylad got physically bullied once in pdh and Zenix was mad that someone dared try to bully somebody else before him, so he beat the shit out of the other guy and earned Vylad’s respect, they are now an honorary Shadow Knight in Zenix’s eyes thanks to how easygoing and mildly badass they were)

So they all crowd around Dante’s laptop and research anything they can about Starlight, using The Wayback Machine and looking into random phone numbers and last names, learning about what the Ultima is and giving them an explanation for why Garroth is a Werewolf now, and leading to Vylad using connections from high school (Hyria) to break into Lucinda’s house to find a book on the Valkrums, THEY RESEARCH and now they have a mild understanding about what might be going on, and Zenix finds Terry’s Office phone number by accident, leading to Dante calling it and the guy actually picks up

Terry is confused and quickly gets the phone taken from him by Lucinda who is insanely surprised to hear familiar voices from people she hasn’t heard from in months (in two cases years) and gives a very quick explanation about what is going on and who is okay and about what just happened like 2 seconds beforehand thanks to exorcism and Terry takes over with how bad the situation just got and infodumps about all he knows to both the witch girlys and the former Shadow Knights + Dante, PANIC ENSUES
