Medic Leo - Tumblr Posts

I know I am a big supporter of medic Leo but I can’t help but hear Leo saying this.

So to make it work I say that:

Leo is the medic, he’s good at it, he does check ups on his family, takes care of them when they’re injured/sick and is super strict with them to rest, drink water, and eat good food they won’t throw up.

But

Leo himself is really bad at receiving that same care from others. Denies that he is sick for as long as he can, down plays injuries and illness, constantly trying to get out of bed to sneak out or train, basically just making the injury worse and making it easier for the sickness to stay with him and lengthening his recovery time on both fronts. Also he is 100x more sassy, bratty, smartassery, jackassery, but also more like 2003 emo leo.

Something I’ve been discussing with people since I’m currently doing a 12 rewatch with friends and streamed a bunch of episodes last night (for me) so we talked about this:

Medic Leo is shown in tmnt 12

Leo patches his bros up and knows how to wake Mikey up for example

Donnie literally makes the mutagen medicine that makes Leo worse and the bathtub will keep him from being dehydrated

Yet the fandom points at 12 Donnie and goes medic-

I gesture to Leo in response. That boy is medic!

Is it just me or does this give very strong 'Leonardo is the medic' ROTTMNT vibes bc I love it

Something I find funny, is the fact that I relate to both Leo and Don from rise

Don? Autism, we genuinely act a lot alike and I love his character. We have similar stims, a dislike for not being touched, not being a people person, spending most of our time in our room/lab, hyper focusing on something, having terrible self care habits (hc), can’t read emotions, and more shit. I relate to Donnie sm

Leo? Personality and ADHD. I act similar to Leo as well. While mine toned down, and I don’t act 100% like him. We still share personality traits, and I relate to his adhd. We’re competitive, put up an act, love being social (even if we don’t want to be), have special interests, like skateboarding/rollerskating, being silly, cracking jokes when not needed, making stupid puns, wanting to cheer people up, having a hard time looking like we’re taking stuff seriously, not being trust, inferiority complex, having someone else be our father figure, and more. I relate to Leo sm

I relate to both of them for different reasons and a few of the same reasons. I love the disaster twins, and I relate to both of them sm.

Do I also happen to be questioning if I kin Leo cause I’m a fixation kin? Yes, yes I am. Does that matter? Probably. Help-

Fixationkin just means my kins change as my hyper fixation does as well. Most of kins that are hyper fixation are my fictionkins, and my one ockin.

I still count the characters as my kins, but they change at who our vessel is hyper fixating on currently. And it just moves in a giant circle for me, so my fixations are constantly changing and the level that kin our vessel kins the characters is also changing.

Makes it very confusing for us to differentiate between hyper fixating on a character and actually being them. The autism also makes it hard as we have a hard time understanding the emotions our vessel has, and knowing the difference between some emotions. It’s hard, but we shall keep u updated
