HEEYYYYY~ Rottmnt Headcanons (Junior again)

Casey wasn't trained to fight he was trained to survive.

Casey is a small human child he wouldn't be able to do crap against the Kraang even with straight up combat training.

He wasn't trained to kill unless the opponent was capable of dying and he's able to overpower it.

Casey was taught to survive, to hurt and run, to outmaneuver pursuers, and outwait creatures that outmatch him like Kraang Dogs or the Kraang themselves.

Casey isn't a hunter or an equal. Casey is a scavenger, a prey with a chainsaw. The moment you separate him from whatever's protecting him, be it tech, shelter or a person it's basically game over.

I'm not saying he's weak (HE THREW AN ACTIVE MISSILE WITH A GRAPPLING HOOK AND HIS BODY!) But Casey was trained to not die, (most specifically) he was trained to back out, run away and hide to lick his wounds and to see another day not to live in the in any other sense of the word but the definition. He's alive, his heart's beating. Because he runs when he needs to and fights to remain breathing in a world no longer meant for any living being.

Leo didn't get to teach Casey how the live, they could barely give him a childhood between the eight of them.

Casey was never taught to fight his enemies unless he absolutely had to he was taught to fight for a place in a new day of life.

#Me talking #This is also why I headcanon he's so good with medicinal work.#He was taught with limited supplies and severe injuries to care for and manage with actual supplies he is excelling #(Casey was one of the youngest if not the youngest in hideout #meaning he was taught to help people when he can but not to go out of his way and risk his life to help #someone stupid or out reach because he's a child and that's the adults' job)#(I don't think Casey hasn't gone out of his way or risked his life to help someone in danger he just doesn't(/didn't) do it it often)#Rise of the TMNT #Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #RotTMNT #Rise Casey Jr #Rise Casey Jones Jr #Casey has trouble remembering not everything is a fight for survival after the movie even when he's happy he's jumpy #Casey also has trouble stomaching too much food at once or often #Mikey & Leo had to make a diet for him that wasn't too heavy or strongly flavored while they worked him into heavier more consistent meals
