"Guys, I found tomato!!"
*".. You got the wrong turtle"*
"OH MY FUCKING GOD, I KNEW YOU WERE STUPID BUT *SERIOUSLY*??"
Some fanart for @ramblehour 's turtlesona Cyrill! He was grabbed by Mickey and brought to the other mud dogs, thinking that they were Belatova.
I've been dead for so long omg so here!! Have an art dump!!
This is my turtlesona, Belatova. She was raised by the mud dogs as a sort of younger sister/niece, but theres no strict familial placements.
I'll ramble more about her here!
Mickey specifically was the one who found her first, in the rubble of what once was draxums first lab. He figured it'd be useful to have something or someone that could get into small spaces. When he got home with her, the reception was not too positive.
"THE FUCK *IS* THIS SHIT, MICKEY?"
"I BROUGHT IT HOME CAUSE I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE USEFUL!!"
"'It', is literally, a CHILD-"
Despite their original reservations, they held on to her incase there were any missing child posters with a reward. The posters never came. They'd never admit it, but of course they grew attached to the little turtle as they raised her. Danny came up with the name Belatova, though Mickey called her tomato once and the nickname stuck.
Just because they had a younger member of the team, that never stopped their criminal behavior. She really *was* useful when she was small, whether it be getting into tight spaces or tricking the people of the mystic city, Tova excelled. Snake oil salesmen quickly became another one of their schemes.
"Just a bit of this and the turtle girl can suddenly do advanced math!!"
*"how does she know how to do that again?"*
"Hangs out with Danny too much I unno-"
The last time belatova saw them was before they were thrown in jail as seen in 'tales from the mystic city.' They had been gone so long she worried something might have happened and went looking for them, and when the mud dogs were finally freed, they came back to an empty hideout. They aren't so obvious about it, but they haven't stopped looking for her.
During this time, belatova met the Mad Dogs, and though there was initial surprise at there having been a missing turtle, they made quick friends. Of course, belatova loved her time with her lost family, but she still misses the mud dogs, and hasn't given up her search for them.

Well as you guys can tell… yes.. Yes I did turned myself into my fav show of all time and childhood one!! LETS GOOO TURTLE POWER! It’s funny how I revisited my childhood cartoons, especially TMNT 2012’s first two seasons. I couldn’t access the later ones, but I remember drawing myself as a turtle mutant back then! 😀
I really had a lot of fun working on this design! At first, I wanted to make it look more ninja-like, but then I reconsidered: well I’m not a ninja… I would rather look like a survivor from Eastern Europe! 👁👁
So I completely scrapped the ninja idea look and redid the design - not only to add little traditional details from my country Romania yet also implement my faith in Christ in it as well! Can you guess the meaning behind this? 👀✨

Mitsuko’s story is a bit tragic because while the kraang attacked everything she ever loved (her family, friends and home) was taken away from her. This led her into a deep mourning and pain, not understanding why God allowed this to happen. Overtime God became her number one in her life, the only one that never forsaken her. That’s when she truly understood that He is all she needs. God blessed her in the end with a new family and friends who fight besides her for the Lord.
Sometimes we go through the same things like Job who lost everything he had and yet in these moments, you realize where your heart is. Is God truly the center of your heart/ life or did we turn other people/ objects into our idols? Sometimes God allows pain and suffering to redirect our eyes on him and understand that He is the one that we need. Remember, the things of this world will come pass, but the word of God and the Lord will stand. Yes, loving our friends and family is a good thing, but we need to love God even more. When Jesus returns what will matter is how we lived and if we had a true relationship with Him.
