Thinking about how Leo says he uses his jokes to cope and y’know, thinking harder on it I think it may very well be because of what else uses one-liners and puns and that type of humor.
Specifically, 80’s action movies and campy sci-fi. Even more specifically, the protagonists of these.
So I can imagine why, exactly, Leo leans toward this brand of humor. It’s directly linked to things he loves! But even more than that is why I think it’s used as a coping mechanism.
In these genres, these quips tend to be said by the winner - or, if not a winner, then someone who will stay alive. So there’s a confidence behind them, an assurance, almost, that even if things go wrong, things aren’t ever too serious. There’s no bad endings here! It’s all good fun, even if the stakes seem high.
Leo canonically has been known to steer his brothers away from the more brutal villains and toward more fun, lighthearted activities and not-so-dangerous criminals. So for Leo, these jokes definitely make things less heavy, make the situations they find themselves in less intense.
It’s kinda not just coping, but also can be seen as a form of escapism. A safety blanket. A way for Leo to defuse the tension of knowing just how dangerous their lives are and replace that with a levity which implies that things will be okay.
Unfortunately, levity alone does not alter reality.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#rottmnt headcanons#how pretentious can I sound when talking about a fictional turtle more at eight#anyway I always loved to think about Leo’s quick line about coping with humor#I don’t care how much people think it doesn’t REALLY matter it’s fun to play around with tbh#also love the idea that Leo’s sense of humor comes from the protags of his fav campy series#(+ from his confident and awesome big sis April)#like idk Leo’s special interests directly paving out how he presents himself both to others and in general is so interesting to me!!!#he is someone who KNOWS people and their quirks so 100% he caught on to that 80’s style of quippy one-liners-#-and associated that with safety and levity#even the villains of these genres who spout off quips tend to be the ones who survive!#Leo desperately fighting to keep the same lighthearted genre as 87 TMNT as the horrors of 2003 and 2012 loom on the horizon#and I think something important to note is that Leo KNOWS things are real#he is WELL AWARE of how dangerous things can get for them#but he copes anyway because it’s easier to deal with everything that way#bro just wants he and his family to be safe tbh

shout out to Aardman for making a movie that has a lead female character that's well written and feels like a real person (even though she's a chicken), a predominantly female cast with only one or two supporting male characters (pulling a reverse Smurfette trope) whom all have diverse personalities and quirks, and a main romance between said female lead and the play boy male character that's an enemies to lovers that doesn't at all feel misogynistic or like they actually hate each other. And shout out to him for making the main mastermind villain a woman as well. It's an action-adventure movie with a female lead narrative that feels entirely gender neutral and it's one of the few I can think of that does this. Also shout our to him for making the chickens all look anthropomorphized in a way that isn't overly sexualized (or sexual at all really). If there were an award for "man who actually knows how to write female characters and present them as people" it would go to Aardman. Well done.
#sorry for using the term female so much I dont want this to sound terfy#i just love seeing movies where thr cast is mostly women and feels like a good story for both girls and boys bc so many action adventure#genre movies feature male protags and male-dominant casts (usually with only one or two female characters) so idk chicken run is just#a refreshing deviation from that#chicken run#chicken run 2#dawn of the nugget#aardman

I keep seeing people say it's not fitting that Danse enjoys country music 😭 I find it pretty fitting and not out of character at all. he definitely puts on a country station while he's tinkering with his armor or guns, and hums along to it absentmindedly. I think it's sweet
#kasper yaps#i only recently actually started listening to country so maybe im biased#but i think people have a certain image of what country is when it can actually be a lot if different things#or maybe im just texan. idk#but i think danse would be open to any genre. he enjoys learning new things!#edit: putting this in the main tag cuz i want to know other ppls opinions#paladin danse

ever think about how the doctor and the master live in like this aroacenormative universe where Friend, or Best Friend, is the highest and most important title you can give a person you care about
#i think it's bc theres like no affection on gallifrey#so like 'i care about you' is like mindblowing rebel shit#fuck the system youre my FRIEND#and they share this too like. idk. i think it's sweet#their first experiences with love were each other so now theyre forever each other's First Friend#that relationship rewrote their brains in like a bunnchhh of ways but also in this way#make a family friendly show and accidentally make your lead an aroace icon bc hes defined by his genre

been sort of obsessed with more like nature based whump including like hunting whump and the idea came to me of a hunter whumper using hunting dogs to track down whumpee. i just really like the imagery. worst of all is that they’d know the woods far better than whumpee ever could.
#whump community#whump#whumpblr#whump writing#whump prompt#hunt whump#nature whump#whump against the elements#sadistic whumper#tw animal attack#idk if there’s a specific tag for this genre of whump but god it’s so yummy to me#brought to you by foxcry by rabbitology 👍

everyone praises american vandal for hilariously and incisively satirizing the True Crime Netflix Doc formula, but i still think what made it most impressive was the way it thoroughly subverted the Teen Movie genre by simply not being set in a highly stylized borderline-fantastical world of its own rules that overlap extremely little with the actual high school experience. american vandal is the only piece of fiction ive ever seen about high school that truly reflects what high school kids are actually like, and there is something so unique and refreshing about that unflinching realism in a genre that seems to demand absurdism. idk
#u can also say that derry girls is accurate and I agree#but it’s not /about/ high school in the same way AV is#idk I mean I think good teen movies don’t require realism in the slightest#so this isn’t a criticism of that genre#I just love how AV was both a satire and yet deeply authentic#a cool glass of water amidst a sea of daiquiris#o.tv#100

I will say if we get a Rat Grinders side quest I think it would be a sick full circle moment for Brennan to play Kipperlily while someone else DMs. To me the rat grinders are living through a YA thriller/horror setting and I’d love to explore something like that when we’ve seen essentially a coming of age teen comedy kinda thing with the bad kids.
#maybe I’ll make my own lil dream cast#idk if any of this made sense but d20 does genres so well and in#my heart of hearts the rat grinders are living through their own version of a YA thriller/horror#dimension 20#d20 fhjy#fantasy high junior year#fhjy

Feeling conflicted about the cyberpunk thingy impulse is going for because like yeah it’s a great theme and I like the aesthetics a lot but what I really like most about cyberpunk is the themes of corporate alienation and/or transhumanism etc etc which I know will not be addressed at all and in fact it’s kind of stupid of me to expect that at all from a minecraft series. Does anyone else get that or just me
#this is an issue I’ve been having with mcyt content in general you know. not ragging on impulse specifically#it’s just… I find it difficult to reconcile the quality of narrative focused mcyt content with its complete lack of commentary#should it have commentary? I believe it could if it wanted to. I don’t think it has to#but then you see these genres being… skinned and worn as cloaks#taking the aesthetics and story without any of the meaning behind it#and when it was just Minecraft builds that was expected. I guess it is still expected and I’m being a huge snob#but like. mcyt narrative is so fucked from a quality standpoint. you can’t even have villains who are other mcyters because people#will get mad at them#is that an unrelated issue? maybe. but I don’t think so#idk. mcyters aren’t expected to be storytellers and they don’t need to be#but I see these things happen over and over again and it’s just uncanny to see something that walks like a story talks like a story#but at the same time has absolutely nothing of value to say#it’s very early on so maybe there will be something done with this concept but I doubbbt it. I would be very pleasantly surprised#astro speaks#hermitcraft#not putting this in the impulse tag cause he would be more likely to see it#and I don’t want him to feel like he has to address this at all#it’s more just me noticing a trend

genre swap: the 12 dancing princesses as a mystery, requested by anon
set in the 1930s, a noir style mystery about a detective to solve the disappearance of 4 dancers who have seemingly robbed & skipped town on their angry employer. the detective realizes patterns in the case similar to previous disappearances in the 20s & 10s. the detective follows the clues, becomes obsessed with these women and their pasts. determined to find them and save them from their wicked ways, he's in for an unpleasant surprise when he uncovers their lair in a literal underworld with the previous disappeared women. these women have found a way to dance forever without the judgment of men, and all they need to add more friends is a simple sacrifice every ten years. and what do you know, the detective is right on time.
#genre swap#12 dancing princesses#twelve dancing princesses#fairy tale#fairy tale edit#photoshop hard#idk what happened i was like oh like a noir from the 40s and 50s and then my brain was like OR a spooky supernatural 30s20s10s#so it's all anachronisms wrapped in a fairy tale
