100 Themes, "Breaking the Rules"

And here we see Raphael... doing something most unusual. *sigh* In many of my fanfic ideas, fanart attempts, roleplays and such... This turtle embodies a lot of things I myself have felt or done. He's the angry, aggressive hot head ... who fights for anything he loves with all he's got.

I love his voice actor, who has a depressingly small list of works (one of which is Tristan on Yu-Gi-Oh) but Raph is definitly his best job ever. I'm an absolute fangirl. I love Raphael in all teh series, arts... Just so much of myself connects with who he is.

In this case, I'm imagining one of 'my generic' themes for him. He goes topside a lot, he's very distant from his family. They always hide underground, since there's no Shredder to fight. He feels drawn to the Above world. He goes, disguised, into bars, parties, buildings. As long as he's in a dark area, no one treats him differently. He got into drinking too much, and in some cases drugs ect., and has just really messed himself up. Splinter called him in one night, due to concerns from his brothers, and he was smashed that night. Splinter took his ninja mask, his sais, and his right to train alongside his brothers. Here Raph got his mask back, after detoxing and all that. Well... he's also the type to go down on himself as much as he does others. He still feels he doesn't deserve it back. Here he is reflecting on what he's done. Time: Two days, on and off doodling and such. Music: Not a whole lot. Just background stuff. I'll hopefully be doing a lot more TMNT stuff. I really enjoy them.
