I’ve had this idea about a plural tmnt au for a couple days where basically -
Tw for discussion of childhood trauma obv
Ok so there’s only one turtle that gets mutated with splinter and I’ve already decided on the name “ronin” for a collective / bodily name. But something happened very early on in their life that caused them to naturally … naturally isn’t the right word but you get what I mean, cause them to develop DID.
Bada bing bada boom Ronins brain splinters into 4 distinct parts : Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo. Named that way due to the fact that at the time of the trauma they were very interested in the renaissance and high-renaissance, probably because those were the only books their dad had.
There isn’t an “original” alter named Ronin or whatever, it’s just 4 guys controlling one body while not knowing the other guys exist or that there are 4 guys in the first place.
Id imagine that the person who’d be out the most would be Leo , idt enough to really gain the “host” role but enough to where when Donnie Raph and Mikey are fronting they try to mask as him the most.
I don’t have much thought for this au past that other than I don’t think I want the trauma to be related to splinter, just cause there are other ways for DID/ OSDD to form and if I ever flesh this out more I’d want to highlight that.
I could just make this my own iteration tbh. Feel free to run wild with it tho I don’t have time to flesh it out rn
