YOU SEE THIS! WE WANT THIS, WE LOVE THIS, WE NEED THIS!

Ways that the boys will randomly touch you:

Dante:

This man is extremely affectionate, and will honestly touch you in any way you allow him to

It’s rather silly, but he enjoys to ‘boop’ your nose and pinch your cheeks, especially when it makes you blush and get frustrated with him

He enjoys you sitting on his lap with his arm around your waist while he works at his desk

Any form of affectionate touch, he is going to do it to you

Ruffling your hair as well is something he always does when he walks by you

Nero:

His biggest thing is pulling you in for a hug with his chest to your back

Something about spooning you close like that just brings him comfort and he wants to just hold you like that for a while

When he gains his arm back and is able to feel with it, expect to have him touching all over you face, your hair, everywhere he is allowed to touch

He loves to touch your cheek especially, since he can lean in to give you a kiss that way

Loves to have his arm around your shoulder especially, keeping you pulled close to his side

V:

He is king of affectionate touches; blame his poetic side for it

He loves to run his fingers through your hair when ever he is looking directly at you

And he always wants to have an arm around you as well

Holding hands is a must if you are sitting or walking together especially

He always has to brush your shoulder or your hair when he walks by you; any kind of physical touch helps him get through his day

Vergil:

Many have come to believe this man does not know the definition of affection

But his touches are far more subtle and personal

His hand will rest on your lower back when you walk together

Or he will absentmindedly run his fingers through your hair when sitting with you, either reading or studying paperwork

He will sneak pecks to your cheek quickly when he passes by you or is wishing you good morning

He secretly enjoys holding your hand when you two sit together as well

Sorry to send in an ask again so soon but what do you think the boys love languages are?

OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY!

You read my mind, I've been wanting to talk about this for so long! I am going to do their top two because I feel like that gives us a fuller picture of each lovely turtle!

Leonardo: Words of Affirmation and Quality Time

Leo loves encouragement and craves verbal validation in all things.

He is terrible about asking for it, you kind of have to read the signs with him.

He gives it freely to his significant other and tries his best to with his brother (while managing the tension of being the leader/oldest)

"I love you's" are the way he starts and and ends phone calls, conversations, texts, ect..

Quality Time is also huge for him!

Most of his time is spent crime fighting or training so the time he has with you he highly values.

He wishes he could spend every waking moment by you, and the rare days off, he does just that 

Those are the ones he treasures.

You two don't have to be doing anything special or out of the ordinary.

Sometimes it's sitting in silence while your both reading.

Other times it cuddling after a particularly long day.

He needs time with you, when he goes too long without it he can't focus.

His brothers can even tell and will call you over just to get fearless back to his normal self.

You have so much power over him and you don’t even know it.

Raph: Physical Touch and Acts of Service

Are we really surprised his top love language is physical touch?

He has been deprived of it his whole life, he grew up watching movies and shows where the man kisses the woman and lived happily ever after.

He craved that and still does.

When you walked into his life and he had the opportunity to feel that he took every chance he got.

It's the hand holding, the soft touches, the kisses.

You are his grounding force.

Your touch soothes the fire and chaos around him.

He never pushes boundaries with you but he's affectionate and needs someone who can reciporacte that.

Where his words fail, his touch doesn't.

Not just touch but small things you do for hime make him feel so seen and loved.

You made a playlist because you were thinking about him and he almost cried.

He's not used to people doing things for him.

He can ask but if you just do it, it rocks his world.

You mend a tear in his mask and he is ready to get down on one knee.

Small thoughtful acts mean so much to this sweet turtle.

Doing these make him feel so secure and loved.

Donnie: Acts of Service and Quality Time

Our boy is so selfless and I think he's really proud of that characteristic about himself, even if he doesn't always see it.

So, when his love does something for him...

He will be so beyond grateful

You made him coffee and breakfast one morning after a particularly rough mission and he was beside himself.

You cleaned his tools back up to his Donnie standard after almost a month of heavy usage and he actually cried.

With a few rare exceptions no one has shown Donnie love and affection through small or big acts of service.

It means so much to him that you would spend your energy on him.

It validates that you see him and all that he does.

It makes him feel so cared for!

Not just small acts but spending time with him too!

Even if you're not doing anything fancy.

Reading together in his lab

Watching him work and write out calculations.

Holding him after a long day.

That time he has with you is beyond precious to him.

He needs you and that time with you to function - more than even he realizes.

Mikey: Physical Touch and Gifts

This man NEEDS physical touch, not just wants it.

He's so touch starved that when you get together he's all over you.

Plus when you initate it his heart stops for a moment.

It's that validation of feeling loved that he has missed for so long.

He loves when you cuddle into him, hold his hand, or let him be the little spoon.

He will even make jokes about wanting more physical touch with you.

"I require affection angel cakes!" He'd call throughout the lair.

He will be needy if he goes to long without physical touch.

Not just physical touch but gifts mean the world to him.

You're on his mind 24/7 so a gift shows him you're thinking of him too.

His favorite gift you got him was a teddy bear wearing an orange mask.

He cuddles with it whenever you can't come over.

Gifts don't have to be expensive for him to love them, just something thoughtful.

You're his big gift, anything else you get him is just a bonus.

Cuddle him, tell him he's pretty, and get him a fuzzy blanket and he's yours forever!

Enjoy!

This blog loves and appreciates Vergil

How would V act with a person that is shy, obviously infatuated with him and of whom Nero is super protective?

Thanks for requesting!

Nero sees you as a younger sibling

He finds your infatuation with V a little weird, especially since the guy's so mysterious

V kind of finds it cute, not really understanding it but still not complaining

Griffon is the one who complains about everything so he's bound to point out that you're always hanging around V or whatever

Cue very blushy you

V also doesn't mind that you're shy, if you want to hang around and say nothing that's fine

He's like a cat that way

Speaking of cats, Shadow loves you, and he doesn't really get along with a lot of people

Nero's constantly in the background watching you guys in case he tries to pull something on you

He can't help it, he wants you safe, even if you can take care of yourself (brother instinct)

Every now and then he gives you a little "Remember not to get to close to him, we don't know that much about him. You don't know where he's been"

Occasionally you'll find yourself sitting next to V and your knees touch, or some thing casual like that

He wants you to feel comfortable near him, so he's trying to be as friendly as possible

Nero Does Not Approve

He'd do a while background check on V as he could but considering everything...

Turtle Fun Fact of the Day

Bit of a longer one here: Everyone knows our favorite blue turtle is the leader (Rise series excluded), but each gets the role in his own way.

1987 Leo - I’ll be honest. Can’t get into the 1987 series, so my knowledge of it is all secondhand, but this Leo is, I believe, chosen as leader directly. His more serious nature and responsibility made him the best choice. A good boy. 10/10

2003 Leo - Not directly chosen as leader! Supplementary material states that this Leo is the unofficial leader who leads by example and not orders. He may often be in charge, but his brothers follow him because he makes good decisions and not because he has a position above them. Very good boy! 10/10

2007 Leo - Stated to be the eldest of the turtles directly and is seemingly chosen as the leader because of it, though Splinter’s talk with Raph about the traits he lacks to be a leader may also imply that it was a combination of age and personality. Since this movie is said to be some twisted continuation of the 1990s movies, it’s hard to say what info carries over. Considering how much tension there is over his leadership position, though, he’s most likely picked by Splinter instead of falling into the position naturally. Stressed good boy. 10/10

2012 Leo - Volunteered to be leader in the first few episodes. Chosen by Splinter seemingly because he asked first, but later said to be the best for the position (even if his brothers don’t always agree). Good boy who’s trying his best. 10/10

2014/16 Leo - Put in charge by Splinter, as told by the usual argument between him and Raph in the first movie. Also stated to be the oldest, but supplementary material reveals it’s because of his mature and responsible nature that he was chosen as leader. Good boy doubling as a mom friend. 10/10

2019/Rise Leo - Chaotic teen with leadership skills who doesn’t want to use them officially. He’ll leave it to Raph. Ironically, Rise Raph became leader (well, appointed himself as leader) for the same reason as 2007 Leo: he’s the eldest. Appointed leader at the end of the series. Gotta wait for the movie to come out to see his full reaction to it, but he didn’t seem too pleased at the news. Absolute disaster of a good boy. 10/10

They’re all perfect 10 out of 10s!

I couldn’t hold back || J.K.

Warnings: Mentions of death, bad language

“The name of that good friend of yours, that one you told me about. Oh right, it’s Marco.”

Your eyes bored into the bowl of stew held in your hands, doing your best to remain calm through this conversation.

“You said Annie was involved in his death, didn’t you?”

You didn’t need to look over at Jean to know he was scowling. Marco’s death had taken a toll on both of you, finding out Annie was involved was even harder.

“Have you asked about it yet? The truth behind his death.”

Your head flashed up, eyes snapping between Yelena and Annie quickly. You hadn’t, truthfully, You didn’t think Jean had either. Up until now, you weren’t sure you really wanted to know. The point of it was Marco was dead, you didn’t need to know the details.

“I took off Marco’s ODM gear.” Annie spoke before anyone could inquire more information. “That’s why a titan ate-“ Reiner cut her off.

“Annie was only following my orders.”

The anger in your chest burned, bubbling under the surface. You could’ve assumed he’d have something to do with it as well, but hearing the words come out of his mouth was a different experience entirely.

“Marco overheard a secret conversation I had with Bertholdt. In fear of our cover being blown, I thought the best way to silence him was to have a titan kill him. I slammed Marco into a roof while in the air. And while I held him down, I had Annie take off his ODM gear. Marco was stuck there until a titan ate him.”

It was deathly quiet as Reiner finished, no one quite able to believe what they were hearing. You felt sick, you were furious. You couldn’t bring yourself to look back at either of them, knowing what they’d done to Marco.

“Did Marco say anything at the very end?” Jean spoke up, eyes trained at the fire in front of him. His tone was hard, cold, his body language seemed stiff, almost like a wall.

“He asked why I wasn’t willing to talk to him.” You looked towards him then, meeting Reiner’s eyes for the first time in years. There was nothing but pure regret in them, and it made something twist deep within your stomach.

“I think that question still applies. We hardly tried to talk, we all just kept fighting, assuming it had to be to the death,” You said finally. Your gaze fell back onto your stew as if suddenly uninterested, unable to maintain eye contact.

“I stood and watched the titan as it devoured Marco and then a switch flipped and I couldn’t figure out why it was happening. I just snapped. I flew into a rage, hellbent on avenging Marco. I cut down the titan myself.”

Your grip on the bowl tightened, your body stiffening at Reiner’s words. Anger fired up again in your blood, fueling a burning sensation behind your eyes that made you want to scream.

“We get it, Reiner. You feel guilty and it screwed with your head,” you snapped, your fingers digging further into the bowl, your glare focused only on the blonde man across from you.

“Don’t forgive me. I’m truly worthless.”

It was silent for another few seconds, Reiner’s eyes refusing to meet yours, but the tension was thick. You were on the verge of exploding when he spoke again.

“I’m sorry.”

You were moving in an instant, your half empty bowl of stew thrown to the side, your body moving towards Reiner before you could even register it.

“Y/N!” Hange’s yell fell on deaf ears as you lunged forward, tackling Reiner to his back. You barely registered your fists connecting to his face, your mind buzzing, eyes seeing red.

He made no move to fight back, your hits only stopping when Mikasa grabbed your wrist. “Stop!” You looked over your shoulder, sending a harsh glare up at the girl before yanking your arm out of her grasp.

“Listen to me, Reiner,” you spoke, turning back on the man under you in a flash, your hand roughly grabbing his shirt to force him to look at you.

“You lied to me, for years. You made me fall in love with you and then broke my heart in the worst way possible. You killed how many innocent people? How many scouts? People I knew, people I cared about. And now I can add Marco to that list. My best friend! Now, you’re gonna sit there and try to apologize? After everything you put me through?! I’ll act civil until we stop Eren. But after that, if I ever see your face again, I’ll fucking kill you,” you growled, glaring into Reiner’s eyes, a level of anger you’d never felt before flowing through your veins.

His eyes widened slightly, as he processed what you had just said. The rage inside of you was something you didn’t know how to handle. The need to hurt Reiner overwhelmed everything else, even logic. It was like an instinct. One you could hardly deny.

But you released him, standing and stalking off from the group, ignoring the calls of your name as you did. You needed time alone to process all this. To calm down. Time away from Reiner and the constant reminder of all those you had lost because of his actions.

You hadn’t noticed the footsteps following closely behind you, not until you heard the familiar voice cut into the silence.

“You got him pretty good.” Jean’s tone held a bit of amusement, but there was concern hidden beneath his words. You knew Jean well, if you hadn’t blown up on Reiner, it was likely he would’ve. He cared about Marco just as much as you did, you knew he was angry too. He had just gotten better at masking it.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you like that.” You turned to meet his gaze, his eyes soft, his expression kind. He was worried about you.

“I don’t think I’ve ever been that angry,” you replied, shrugging lightly. “I know I probably shouldn’t have done that, but I couldn’t stop myself. I’ve wanted to see him again for so long, just to yell at him. But hearing him talk about Marco, I couldn’t hold back.”

Jean nodded thoughtfully, running a hand though his hair. His gaze wandered towards the ground as he thought. Then he looked back at you. “I thought it was hot, honestly, but that’s just me.”

You met his eyes again, a second passing before a small laugh left your lips. You grinned at each other for a moment before breaking out into laughter together.

The laughter soon died down, Jean’s arms moving to pull you into his chest. You sighed into his body, melting into him as you dug my face into his shoulder. Your heart calmed itself, settling against the comforting warmth of Jean.

“Are you alright?” Jean asked softly. You could feel his breath ghost across your head as he spoke. “Yeah, I think I am. Just exhausted, honestly.”

As Jean pulled back to check on me, you smiled weakly, his fingers reaching up to push back some stray hairs around your face. He leaned forward, pressing his forehead against yours. Your hands moved automatically to rest on his waist and you felt his hands cup your cheeks gently as he closed the distance between you.

Our kiss was light, yet filled with emotion. You could sense the sincerity of it, in the way Jean held you tightly and pressed himself closer. Our lips were moving rhythmically, your breaths mingling together. His thumbs stroked circles over your cheeks, soothing your nerves. You relaxed further into his touch, sinking deeper into his embrace and basking in the moment.

When you finally pulled apart, your bodies remained close, both unwilling to let go. Your cheek rested gently on his shoulder, holding him tight. He ran a hand lightly up and down your back, his touch reassuring.

“Thank you. For being here, with me.” Your voice was slightly muffled, still pressed against his body.

“Of course. Always.” His arms wrapped tighter around you. I could hear his heartbeat slowly starting to steady, his breathing calming once more.

Happy Birthday to V! Ugh, I love his gameplay. And voice. And hair. And lips. Gaahhhh ruin me pls. Love that my mans Vergil is a repressed dorky goth poet. The top one is my usual "quick" style. The bottom sketch was supposed to be a quick sketch also, but... well. Hehe. Enjoy!
