If it is not too much bother and if it is allowed...

Can someone with Volume 19 scan and display the evidence that Michelangelo was seduced by Seri? Even if it is implied and not explicitly shown.

I do agree it is extremely unlikely that a turtle and a dinosaur can have viable offspring- or even offspring period. Add me to the looong list of people who think that Seri tricked him. It is not that rare even nowadays in this planet. I know people to whom it has happened recently.

[Rooish]

mikey saves seri when she's trapped in a net under the water, he pulls her onto the shore and performs "mouth to mouth" and she wakes up. and he tells her how he revived her and she says stuff about how sharing breath is an intimacy reserved for one's mate on her homeworld ... but she says she is pleased. then she takes his hand and they go back into the ocean and she says, "we won't just be swimming" and mikey says, "oh? ooooohhh..." and then the issue ends, or something. in the next issue they are lying on the beach and seri is cradling some eggs under the sand and she tells mikey that they are their children ... mikey says, "wow, that was fast" but i think he'd have been much more shocked if they hadn't had sex ...

i am drunk, sorry for the incoherence.

furthermore, REPTILES DO NOT HAVE MAMMARY GLANDS.

[Buslady]

And thats why i think she's setting him up. Eggs take weeks to form after mating. She really did the deed with a triceraton and to save face, thought she'd do it with Mikey and set him up to take the fall and save her true mate.

"That was fast"

Everybody was suspicious enough as is that they were NOT Mikey's babies.

Now that phrase alone is a MAJOR hint (if not explicitly stating) that they are certainly NOT his kids and that he has been royally FRAMED.

And Leo gave a little boy mouth to mouth and CPR on the third movie. Hence I doubt Seri would be so tremendously shocked.

Reptiles certainly do not have mammary glands. At least Mona Lisa used to be originally a girl who got transformed into a salamander (not that amphibians have mammary glands either), so curves are understandable. In Venus' case this is quite implausible.

My German professor said once that a little boy told him "I did not know that breasts were for nursing babies". And the prof replied "well what did you think they were for?". And the little boy said "because they look good".

And my library just got the most ADORABLE book about mammals of different species (including humans) nursing (and in one case bottle-feeding) their babies. Most adorable book ever. I wanted to put it in the easy science section rather than easy fiction since it had the names of lots of animals and their babies- but it was officially classified as fiction.

[syd]

dude,u didn't mention that the most implausible thing's that one part is a mutant turtle and the other a mutant reptile. how can a mutant turtle and a mutant reptile commit the whole breed thing after all?ox0

[Scandia]

Turtles are reptiles. But that's not the point.

Michelangelo is a mutant. Seri and members of her species are not. Not quite the point either.

A turtle and a dinosaur can NOT mate and produce offspring.

They diverge at the Order level. If they were just two different species in the same genus, such as Canis latrans (coyote) x Canis lupus (wolf) or Equus caballus (horse) x Equus asinus (donkey), then it could and often does work.

But Trachemis scripta elegans (red eared slider) and x Dinosauria family genus species (whatever Seri was) could NEVER have offspring.

And even if you knew NOTHING about science and thought that dogs and cats could have baby catdogs, the "that was fast" part alone should be a major indication that something is NOT right and that they are NOT his babies.

[Rooish]

Well, I don't think they're Mikey's kids either. But I think that Seri is exempt from the Earth classification systems, because she is from another planet. Although Triceratons, Styracodons, and whatever the hell Seri is (Protoceratopson?) look like dinosaurs, they aren't dinosaurs as are found on Earth. Mikey mentioned something about convergent evolution found amongst species on two planets, and how that might have happened with the Earth dinosaurs and the dinosaurian aliens.

But c'mon, Leo gave mouth-to-mouth to a little boy in the third movie and that's supposed to have any effect on the Mirage universe? Seri stated that she was shocked because in her culture, a kiss means you're betrothed.

Because they were castrated by Splinter to ensure their chastity.

PLUS, you are an even bigger Don/Leatherhead supporter, so you have an interest in keeping April busy.

There was a Technodrome member named Jarrah White - and he had that huge crush on Venus de Milo.

But he's been banned for a long time, that's probably why you never heard of him before.

[Scandia]

Seri stated that she was shocked because in her culture, a kiss means you're betrothed.

Boy am I glad it is NOT like that on this planet.

Just because it does not fall under the legal definition of rape does NOT mean it is not violating you.

[Type 97 Chi-ha]

The big problem with the term "neutering" is that it implies that doing this to an animal makes it asexual. It doesn't. Gender is still in the XX and XY chromosones, as well in many features of the animal's anatomy and psychology.

I have two spayed cats, a male and a female. The female, before I had her spayed, was feisty and friendly only with me and absolutely nobody else (a personality characteristic which as far as I know is unique to females). After I had her spayed, her personality remained exactly the same. She's as feminine as ever. The male I got came pre-spayed, but still acts like a typical male cat.

Ah, certain plants and animals are capable of breeding outside their species or phylum. For that matter, it goes pretty far. Look up interfamilial hybrids some time. GIven we're working in a Universe with ULTROM's, its not hard to believe it could go further. Convergent evolution man.

besides wich, dude, she's an alien, different rules apply. She;s completely off of the evolutionary chart, which makes it hard to judge. You'd have to do a chromosome comparison to even begin to be sure. As to the dinasiour thing, dude, its the appearance,e not the biggest issue. You could be surgically altered to look reptilian, and you'd still be able to breed.

As to quick eggs, heck, fish don't even need to be fertilized before llaying them. Alien. Different rules from normal large animal gestation.

I suppose Raph's aggression could be an outlet, and he just doesn't realize that he's sexually frustrated. The other guys find other things to occupy their time (Leo meditates and is really spiritual and I doubt he ever has sexual urges at all; Don seems to have a definite crush on April in a couple mediums and may be the most aware of his sexual desire, but he ignores it because he's not a human; and Mike ... well, I really can't imagine him with sexuality. But then he went and had sex in Volume 4. Geh).

LOL why is do you think that Roo Roo I think out of all the turtles Michaelangelo is universally the most horny out of all of them and there for the most sexually frustrated. In the old toon he was certainly interested in girls and showed an active interest in having human contact, he actively crushed on Kala and that bitch Buffy and I think some one else as well.. In the Movies (live action) he flirts with April and falls in love with a ninja woman and wants to stay with her as a result. And in Next muation he makes some naughty refrences and the comics show him as haveing girl friends ad crushes and physical interaction with females. The New toon seems to be the only version of Michaelangelo that seems to be asexual. So far he hadsn't shown any dort of interst or had a girl that shares his intersts like Don, and Leo and arguably Raph (with Joy) have. But then Michae;angelo in the 2k3 medium seems the least mature of all the other Michaelangelo's out there so I can see why it would be hard to picture him showing interst in a girl.

So, if you're ever drowning, no mouth-to-mouth for you. Right?

[Scandia]

That's NOT what I am talking about. I just do not like anything- ESPECIALLY PHYSICAL CONTACT- imposed on me. CPR/mouth to mouth does NOT count.

And I have not found any examples of inter-ORDER hybrids. Most are inter-species or inter-genus.

And I wish they had not gotten rid of Splinter. Is it me, or does Volume 4 not have much ninjitsu or general martial arts stuff. In other words, not much of Leonardo's realm.

True, I wouldn't be surprised if they had one of the other turtles go on a date and have Mikey act like 'he's goin out with a girl? Yuck!'

Can't castrate a turtle, their nuts are up inside the body cavity. Funny post though!

Turtles mate before egg laying which comes at least 6 weeks after making out. Seri's eggs looked hard shelled, no way they could reproduce externally-the shells would prevent Mikey's little soldiers from getting into the egg.

Mating comes at least 6 weeks after making out?


Anyway, I was trying to make the point that it was alien biology, so there was no telling what was going on, as it would be well outside of known guidlines.

and besides, its a sci fi cliche-hybrid children.
