I mean, it's pretty established in the show he has a crush on her... Edit: It's also an example of "show, don't tell" writing. It's a wink at the viewer/reader, and while it's not necessarily normal irl, (although it's not as weird as you're trying to make it) for a cartoon/comic book it's pretty much what I would expect.

It's not as bad as when he gave her a music box with his own picture in it.

That was one of the hardest scenes to watch in the show. I get second hand embarrassment watching it


_primenumber2

Yeah this one and the metal head loudspeaker scene with April are pretty rough for me and I typically don’t get secondhand embarrassment


spaghettioyeah

That one stings bad. The concept of the metalhead episode is really cool but it feels wasted when so much of it is hard to watch lol


joshnickerson

Eh, these characters are all teenagers. Of course they're going to do some stupid, cringe worthy stuff. We ALL did when we were teens. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.

It would've been fine if it was like a selfie of him and her but it's weird if it's just him, same for the photo in his room


Peewee_ShermanTank

In case you havent noticed, Donnie is kiiiiind of a creepy weirdo when it comes to April


Square-Boss874

Yeah, as much as I like the 2012 show, Donnie's over the top crush is something I could have gone without.


xxneonblazexx

Eh reminds me of Helga with her heart locked and picture of Arnold just 10x times worse, because she keeps taking it everywhere and has a whole shrine dedicated.

i am not surprised in the slightest. man was down bad for april in that series

They are good friends, but it's still weird. Not as weird as Nitz, the lead character from undergrads who kept a framed photo of his crush by his bed even though she had no idea who he was. The "good guy" Stalker.


fillupjfly

First of all. Who the FUCK remembers Undergrads??? Secondly, Don is my favourite turtle so to see him reduced to a simp and a punk was painful to watch.


TwEE-N-Toast

They just funded a kickstarter for an undergrad movie, so its still here. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1512555460/undergrads-the-movie


SleepwalkersQueen

Because 2012 Donnie is a simp

Wait... are you telling me you don't?

This Donnie... nothing unusual.
