Rise! Donatello and physical touch.
This is very much a rant.
Tumblr media
I am SICK and tired of people saying that Rise! Donnie doesn’t like physical touch at all.
If this is your headcanon or projection, sure! I love headcanons and who am I to say you can’t hc whatever you want???
However, it is not canon.
Does he go out of his way for affection like Mikey? No! Is it his favorite thing in the world? Not at all! Have there been times when he didn’t reciprocate physical affection? Sure, but that doesn’t automatically mean he hates it.
Let’s be real. There are many, MANY moments throughout the show (and movie) where Donatello is affectionate with his brothers, dad, and April.
He lets Mikey cling onto him, he always joins in if there’s a group hug, he carries April and Splinter on his back, he lets his brothers put their arms around his shoulder, HE HUGS THEM ALL THE TIME? The list goes on and on. DID YOU SEE HIM DANCE WITH ATOMIC LASS???
DONATELLO CAN BE VULNERABLE. Does he prefer not to be? Absolutely, but he’s not incapable of it. For one really big example; in Ballad of the Rat Man, Donnie clearly expressed his feelings to Splinter about being upset that he thought Splinter lied about wanting to spend time with him. After he realizes how he was making Shelldon feel, he genuinely apologized and made it right. (With the help of Dr.Feelings ofc) I’m not even going to mention the movie for my own well being. Donnie is sarcastic and apathetic at times, but he is also passionate, dramatic, and excitable. He’s not cold and reclusive. (BUT THAT’S ANOTHER DISCUSSION FOR ANOTHER TIME IM GETTING OFF TOPIC)

AU Where after newtralizer "kills" Mikey he ends up in Rise possessing Shelldon.
Unfortunately between whatever newtralizer did, crossing between dimensions, and being put in an incompatible robot body a lot of Mikey is scrambled and unable to remember who and what he used to be. This is why as Shelldon is remade and on update 13 Shelldon starts getting more of Mikey's personality back.
Shelldon getting odd dreams, which shouldn't be possible. Dreams where everyone is different, Splinter is tall, Raph is small, Leo is the leader, etc. He goes to Donnie about them but Donnie can't find any internal or external cause. He tried going to Mikey, but the Dr. Feelings seminar on dreams and meanings just left him more confused.
He decided to just let them be, it's not like they were hurting anyone… Though they did make him feel a little lonely for some reason. Donnie usually helped though by giving Shelldon head pats and letting him assist with some of his projects.
After Shelldon's body is destroyed by Shredder he wakes up in some weird dark place, he doesn't like it. He wants to go home. He hopes the others find him soon.
Oh, he must be dreaming again, the tall Splinter is here. He's talking to him but strangely keeps calling him Michaelangelo. For some reason, the rat man gets increasingly distressed when Shelldon corrects him.
The other Splinter ends up leaving, he's all alone now. Shelldon hopes he wakes up soon. The other Splinter comes back again.
This time he brought the others. Raph, Donnie, Leo, April, even Casey. He doesn't think he's met a Casey, he wonders who the dream based him on.
They're all trying to talk to him, but none of it makes sense. They're insisting he's Mikey and trying to get him to remember people and things that didn't happen. The more they talk the more his head hurts, like something is pressing on the back of his mind trying to break through. He doesn't like it.
Shelldon ends up covering his ears and screaming for them to be quiet. He just wants to wake up and go home. He just wants Donnie. The other Donnie says he's right here and Shelldon cuts him off saying not you the real Donnie. If Shelldon's head didn't hurt so much he might have felt bad for the look of hurt on other Donnie's face.
Shelldon starts calling for his Donnie, hoping he'll somehow be able to save him from this dream. Shelldon doesn't even notice when he starts calling out Dad instead of Donnie. There's a large pulse of energy, like electricity in the air, and a large, purple-glowing version of Donnie just seems to materialize behind him. The others look shocked and try to reach for Shelldon, but Donnie is already cradling him in his hands. Shelldon had never felt so warm and safe.
Shelldon ends up booting up in a new body next to a sleeping Donnie. Shelldon's not sure what happened after Shredder attacked, but he felt like he was forgetting something important.

Request! Rise Donnie x reader that is smarter than him and teases him about it and he's furious about having a crush on them being 100% oblivious that reader already knows and feels the same way. From Donnie's POV. PLEASE and thank you!
I’ve been dreaming of a— HMMMMMM????
Request, you say????
“Anonymous asked: Request! Rise Donnie x reader that is smarter than him and teases him about it and he's furious about having a crush on them being 100% oblivious that reader already knows and feels the same way. From Donnie's POV. PLEASE and thank you!” 
A/N: unfortunately, I can’t see any way that this would go well... If any writer wants to take this prompt and make a fluff version of this, have at thee! But I can only imagine this going one way….
-
Smarter. (A Oneshot) - Donatello x Reader
Warnings: Spoilers for Witch Town & Mind Meld, angst, hurt no comfort, Y/n misreads his feelings, Donnie is a protective father. 
-
The science guy. 
That was me.
I “dealt” with things. The “Bill Nye” comments, the teasing, the bantering, the loneliness, the hours of work into every, single, little project I made. I’ve hacked into every camera in NYC. I’ve created sentient machines, reprogrammed a useless movie vehicle to be the best in the world, I would say. Made bombs, robbed and reverse robbed banks, created rockets, bombs, ingenious battle devices, tech-bo, for christs sake! And so! Many! More! But… 
Then, there was you.
Perfect, in absolutely every way. Mystic, science, physics, hell — you even beat me in banter, leaving me speechless nearly every time. And you rubbed it in my face. You were the Hamilton to my Aaron Burr. It didn’t help that you checked off all my boxes, Cute and mean, that was my type, and I wanted to bond with you, a fellow scientist who I didn’t have to dumb down my talk for, someone I could be myself around! but you… you made yourself impossible to tolerate. I admit I didn’t take it well, when I realized…
You were everything I wanted to be. 
“Awww, is this Shelldon?” You scratched behind one of his many ears, making him trill in delight. “Ahhahawww thanks, dude! Yeah that’a me.” He responded, leaning into your touch. “He’s cute! What coolant do you take, buddy?” You asked, talking down to him like a child, the exact way Sheldon had always reprimanded me for. 
“Donnie’s experimenting with different types,” Yes I am, “He’s trying Castrol Radicool Premix right now, it’s been doing good so far.” Thank you. 
As expected, you inhale sharply through your teeth, making my attention pique from what I was trying to distract myself with. “Donnie really doesn’t take care of you, huh?”
What?
Me? 
I don’t take care of Shelldon?
“Uhhh… I don’t know if that’s—“ I can’t bring myself to let him finish, already standing from my gaming chair. I turned on my heel, fury in my eyes as I rolled the seat out of the way, “Excuse me?”
You chuckled, and felt my blood boil, “Awh, Donnie, you’re blushing! Embarrassed?” 
“Infuriated.” I answered. 
“Oh come off it, I simply think you should try Ethylene Glycol, it would be so much better for winter.” I grit my teeth, every word from your sicky-sweet voice made my skin crawl. I would have attacked you right then and there if I didn’t know you had better tech. Hah, better tech… better than me? ME of all people? No. 
I furrow my brows, “That was next on my list..” I seethe, feeling my nerves spike as you poked my shoulder. I hated when you did that, it made my face go red and my palms sweat. Curse this irony, it was like smiling at a joke from a person you’re mad at. It’s frustrating, but involuntary. 
“C’mon, we both know you’re not really mad, you’re just frustrated cuz you like me. Look at that blushing nose~!” I felt my voice catch in my throat as you leaned into my face, wanting nothing more than to push you away already. My body was experiencing a freeze response, and I couldn’t even bring myself to push you, it was as if my bones were made of high-grade titanium, the same as my tech. 
I clenched my fists, feeling a bit of my confidence return as Shelldon flew to my side. “I thought I was supposed to be the narcissist…” I hissed, feeling my face redden with anger. I’ve never hated anyone more. 
Your face turns confused, but I can’t bring myself to realize you might have misunderstood my feelings, “You think you’re so great, don’t you?” Shelldon cowers, I know he hates when I raise my voice, so I lower to a furious whisper, “You think you can just waltz into my lab, my life, and tell me how to run things?” My nails dig into my palm, I resist the urge to threaten you, knowing your body would never be found beneath my hands. 
“You think you’re the science guy, don’t you? Think you can correct everything I’ve worked so hard to achieve and just take my place!?” Make me worthless? Be the purple sibling? What next, re-wiring my systems? Taking scraps and making a dark matter accelerator? Drawing on eyebrows to a cheap version of my bandana!?
Your eyebrows knit, “woah, woah, Dondon, I didn’t mean—“ “Don’t fucking call me that!!” I seethe, feeling tears prick at my eyes, I hate how emotional I am when I’m angry, but I’m too deep in now. Some weak, soft shelled part of my heart is telling me to apologize, but I’ve always, always acted with my head. It’s telling me you’re a threat. And you are… aren’t you? 
“I’m not a child!” I can feel my heartbeat, eyes wide and I take a deep breath to lower my voice. “And Y’know what, I think I finally found something I’m better at.” I fold my arms, watching a frown finally form on your face. 
“Really?” You glared, matching my stiff body language.
“Yeah.” I huff, “Reading the room.” 
“You? Read a room?” You scoffed, seeming just as offended, but I didn’t mind. “Ever think maybe, I did all these things — not to take your place, but to impress you?” 
“Oh, you made an impression. Alright.” You… wanted to impress me? I turned my back to you, a small voice telling me that maybe, just maybe, I.. wasn’t acting with my head.. “A bad one.” Why am I so defensive? Why did all this get to me? Shelldon was uncomfortable, I was uncomfortable, hell, I bet my brothers could hear this! They’re probably uncomfortable! why couldn’t I be the bigger turtle and just move on?
“Just… leave..” I waved at the air, sinking into my seat with a little regret. Why was it, that around you, I was never enough? That I was just the small, weak soft shell who couldn’t play rough with his brothers? Who broke his glasses? Who practically wore a pillowcase for protection?
Why couldn’t I be cool for you? Why was I talked down to? I’ve accomplished so many things, why is it that nobody can ever look at me in awe!? Why am I always admiring someone else, and never being admired?
“…” the tension in the room began to dissipate, and I listened with baited breath as you closed the curtain behind you. I let out the sigh, and I hear Shelldon round the corner, landing his head on mine, “Well, that could’ve gone better…” he muttered, and I feel something strange as I look down at my workbench— grief? Guilt? Whatever it is, it stuck, no matter how badly I didn’t want to admit it.
“Yeah..” I mutter, twirling my screwdriver, “Yeah it could’ve.” 
A/N: I feel like this might be a lil OOC, am I the only one who gets that vibe?? Idk I’m not really feeling this one, lmk what you guys think 😭 I guarantee another writer could best me at this prompt, and I offer it up to anyone interested! Hope this was ok, anon, really hope I didn’t wreck your day.  —

Hihi!! I'm here to request a rottmnt donnie x reader fic :>
Basically, reader hasn't been over to the lair in a couple of weeks and if they did they spend at most an hour before leaving may I add Donnie wanted to show them a huge project he completed (he has told them about it but he never told them it was complete) so our mans Donnie thinks that we got bored of him and we are cheating on him which is not the case here and that reader was basically planning a little surprise party to congratulate Donnie on finishing this big project of his + balancing their schoolwork and job to fund this party. But on the day they had it all completed and was about to tell Donnie, he had enough and decided to break it off with them. You can decide the rest here :3
Have a good day, and get enough food, water, and sleep ‼️
Maybe I Was Boring
Tumblr media
Donnie x gn!reader
Warnings: Donnie centered 2nd person, accusations of cheating, betrayal?, panic attack, breakup, angst, comfort, aged up, swearing, first "I love you", no tcest!!!
A/N: ooo... Donnie angst, I'm excited for this. Man... That's a lot of warnings...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donnie had finally finished rebuilding Shelldon. It was a long process because he wanted to keep him as he was while giving him a huge upgrade. Donnie couldn't wait to show you, you had been a huge supporter during this time, but you stopped coming the the lair recently. Donnie was having some doubts about your relationship, maybe he bored you. Maybe you found someone new?
Donnie left the lab too grab a snack when he saw you and Mikey. You were whispering to him about something, Mikey was grinning widely as he handed you something.
Donnie hasn't seen you in weeks, but here you are with his brother... He felt jealous, betrayed. He quickly rushed back to his lab, feeling like he couldn't breathe.
Of course you'd drop him for one of his brothers. Out of all of them, at least it was Mikey. Right? That was nice, but he missed you. Why hasn't he noticed sooner? Was he too boring? Did you just get so tired of him you didn't even feel the need to break it off?
"Donnie?" Leo asks, peeking into the lab. Leo finds Donnie curled up in his chair, fingers digging into his head. "Don!" Leo pulls Donnie's hands away and holds them. "Count with me, Donnie. You're okay."
The 2 of them count to 10 together. Donnie feels his lungs start working normally again and Leo let's go of his hands.
"What was that about? What's wrong?" Donnie turns away, he didn't really want to talk about it or talk at all for that matter. "Donnie, I'm always here for you, okay? You don't have to talk..."
⋆。 ゚。☁︎👾。 ゚。⋆
Donnie ran the final tests on Shelldon, making sure he worked perfectly, when he got a text from you. You asked him to come over.
He knew that this was the end of your relationship. As much as he dreaded it, he knew he had to break it off. You were clearly in love with someone else and he couldn't stand being the side chick.
"He's here! Hide!" He heard you whisper shout thought the door. Great... You had someone over already. "Donnie!"
"Y/N..." He answers. He's a bit confused because you're so happy.
"Come in." You step aside and Donnie shakes his head.
"I think I'd rather talk out here." You frown and step outside with him, closing your door.
"Is everything okay?"
"I can't keep doing this..."
"Doing what?" Instead of saying it aloud, he motions between the 2 of you. "Our... Relationship? W-Why?"
"I haven't seen you in weeks... Every time I tried you had some half-assed excuse... You've been with Mikey too..."
"What? Donnie are you accuse—"
"Okay!" Leo opens the door quickly, separating the 2 of you. Donnie looks at Leo, shocked to see his twin of all people. "Donnie, come inside. Y/N prepared something for you."
Leo pulled Donnie inside. All of his friends and family sprung up yelling "Congratulations!" Even Shelldon was there, although he was certain he left him at home.
"Wha?" Donnie asks. He sees a banner with him and Shelldon drawn on it, hanging above your living room couch.
"Y/N worked on all of this for you." Leo points out. "They worked overtime, plus had school..."
"I—" Donnie tried. He turned to you, seeing tears in your eyes. "I'm so sorry..."
"Let's talk about it later, okay?" You smiled, blinking away the tears. "Right now let's celebrate you and Shelldon."
⋆。 ゚。☁︎👾。 ゚。⋆
"I'm sorry that I accused you of cheating..." Donnie started. Both of you sat on your balcony, watching the moon rise slowly. "I just... I don't feel like enough for you. I feel like maybe... Maybe I was boring..."
"Boring? Donnie, you're everything to me." You answer, leaning your head on his shoulder. "That's why I did all this for you. That and..."
"And?"
"It's funny that you say that you don't feel like enough... Cause I feel the same." Donnie turned, eyebrows drawn down. "You're so intelligent, so intuitive, strong, brave... The list goes on. Don, you helped save the world. The world... And I haven't achieved anything."
"I need you, y/n." Donnie frowns, the thought that you viewed yourself so poorly was confusing. He felt the same about himself, but you? You were amazing in his eyes. "I love you."
He said it first. It was very uncharacteristic. It had your mind running in overdrive.
You didn't answer, opting to kiss him instead. Gripping the front of his shirt desperately. He pulled away a little, stunned, before pulling you closer.
"I love you, Donatello."

Leo and Donnie are streaming. Their models are in onesies, Leo a Unicorn, and Donnie a Dinosaur, with matching slippers, their models are sitting in beanbags. A low table between their models has a tea cup, mug, and Shelldon on it. They're attempting a live podcast, though not sure how it's going. There is a chat asking questions, but only a handful are answered.
Leo: So we don't really mention Pops much do we, so let's talk about him.
Donnie: Papa was once a celebrity, at the very least in the martial arts world, and because he came over from Japan he often went by a stagename, so not many may know his real name. He does pop up on random YouTube videos of 'Where are they now?' Kind of stuff.
Leo: What we knew about him growing up was mostly believing he had some odd obsessions with some actors, only to learn he looks very different after being out of the spotlight for, what, 20 years?
Donnie: Give or take. Papa was very popular amongst a wide variety of people, he went to and left many events with different people if you get what I mean, It wouldn't surprise me if we had some long unknown Half-Siblings out there.
Leo: Yeah, though you'd think they would go to the media, or someone to try getting child support back pay, or something. But really I wish Dad had told us more about his time in the industry.
Donnie: Even if some of his media related advice wouldn't work in the age of social media, and the internet. He mostly told us about the on set stuff, like actor drama, the stunt coordinator not explaining things well.
Leo: A stunt guy that almost cost the production alot of money for a bad move. Typical movie/TV film set gossip stuff. Do you think Pops would ever get back into the movie industry?
Donnie: While it would be amazing thing to happen, Papa would need to get back into shape, badly. While he may still be able to pull of his old moves, he has thrown out his back trying to show off before.
They segued into talking out some of Splinters ex's, and but avoiding mention off who their mothers were, they said it's to complicated to cover, and wouldn't make sense trying to put together the timeline of events.
----------------
Masterpost
I just wanted them to toss out the canon of Splinter pretty vaguely, if only to cause chaos in the chat, and because I couldn't think of a more fitting podcast topic that I could write for a good amount without lots of research.

I'm wondering how the established rivalries and such happened in the Imaginary Friends AU.
Can see the twins getting jealous when Mikey makes friends with Todd; that's their little brother, but, also....this guy is really nice???
And how would the conflict with the Purple Dragons go? It's not like April's gonna be calling Donnie to help with schoolwork.
I think the twins would get pretty jealous of Todd, or at least suspicious of him? Donnie more than Leo simply of how they're introduced to him (the "Repo Mantis" episode is a very Donnie and Mikey centric episode, and it would stay that way for this au. The biggest change being that Mikey keeps accidentally coercing Donnie into doing a lot of the cannon shenanigans b/c Donnie has little to no immunity to little brother puppy dog eyes lol. also that Hueso is freaking out in the background b/c one of his the twins is missing for three days! and the other one keeps just telling him "he's fine" and not explaining!) So Donnie is very adamant that there's something suspicious about Todd, Leo joins him b/c there is no way anyone can be this nice. In reality Donnie just wants an excuse to not like him b/c he was stealing his brotherly bonding time lol.
As for the Purple Dragons, i think that situation would be completely reworked for Donnie. He's still going to end up with a pretty big rivalry with the Purple Dragons, but i think the way he ends up getting that would be closer to if you crossed "Breaking Purple" with "The Purple Jacket".
Let me explain.
by this point, Donnie is only just started building stuff. Sure, he read every single technology based book in the library, and proceeded to continue that research via a borrowed library laptop. but before they ended up with Hueso, he didn't dare try much more than maybe dissemble something at the junk yard. Once he's comfortable at Hueso's, he starts taking things apart for the express purpose of seeing if he can put them back together. (sometimes he can, sometimes Hueso has to call a repair man and Donnie can watch them put it back together. it's a win-win in his book.) But beyond that and occasionally tinkering with the Jupiter Jim moon buggy they stole, he hasn't started buildign anything of his own yet.
Then one night, he's out on his own, (not exactly sure why yet, i'll get back to u) and he sees this group of kids at a playground building drones.
Donnie is absolutely fascinated.
He's never seen anyone build tech stuff before, not outside the repair dude and things on youtube. And they're people his own age! Building stuff!! and that stuff is purple!!! So he hides nearby and watches them work for a while, coming back several days in a row just to watch the progress. He's not entirely sure why the drones keep coming back broken, but he loves watching them get repaired.
After watching them for a while, he decides he wants to try to befriend them. Hueso keeps telling them both that they should try to make more friends, why can't these people be them?
So Donnie comes up with a plan.
He decides if he makes his own drone, one that's just as cool (if not cooler) than theirs, they would see he's cool and good with tech too and would want to befriend him as well.
Thus Shelldon is created.
for this AU, Shelldon is purely a drone, created via tech, and a hint of mystics (it was only incorporated so Donnie could communicate mentally with him, but it accidentally made the little dude sentient lol. Yes, Hueso is loosing his damn mind over this.)
So Donnie shows up to the Purple Dragons, visible for the first time, with a little Turtle shaped sentient Drone that he's holding to his chest.
(Purple Dragons think he's weird/creepy b/c he's just standing there letting his drone do all the talking for him.)
They let Donnie stay around, even give him a jacket and pretend to be his friend b/c they want to win that drone race and Shelldon is probably their best bet. But they can see how attached Donnie is to this Drone (if he's not showing Shelldon off, he has him held to his chest) so they know they can't just say "Hey, lets' race your drone in a really dangerous race that wrecks every drone that goes through it." They tried to steal it, but the tracker they put in the jacket keeps "malfunctioning" and leading them to a brick wall and not a home.
Eventually they decide to just ask him to 'borrow' Shelldon for the day. (Donnie only agrees b/c Shelldon himself said he was cool with it. "it's like a sleepover, dude. It will be cool.")
But Donnie's still very worried, so he follows them without beign noticed. (Shelldon might know he's there, but he's not snitching).
Donnie realizes what type of race this is after it starts, and tries to confront them/get Shelldon out of there but the Purple Dragons keep him from interfering.
At least they do until Shelldon gets hurt during the race (just a propeller gets broken and he ends up kinda spiraling to the ground, not getting any further injuries. easy to repair.)
And, well, lets put it this way. He is a very pissed off technokenetic (?) surrounded by a lot of high-grade drones. Shit is going down. (Yes, Donnie can be a little badass, as a treat : ) )
It is quite possible that Leo picked him and Shelldon up from this upon noticing his twin's fury, but yeah. This is how the Purple Dragons got on Donnie's shit list, and, as a bonus, how Shelldon came to be! (at least as far as i know rn.)
Thank yoU!

So About Those Voices
"And... why are you sitting so close to me?" Raph scoots away from Raphie.
"I need to ask you some questions. About your brothers." Raphie chews his nails nervously. "See, a while back I accidentally ended up leading a crime gang."
"How do you accidentally lead a crime gang?!"
"I don't wanna get into it! Let's just say, it ended badly for everyone!"
"Yeah, duh."
"Anyway, the gang was these three guys, right? And the thing is, they kinda... sounded a lot like your brothers."
"... And?"
"And, well, does this mean your brothers, are secret criminals?"
"... What kinda logic are you running on?"
"I mean... that'd be the case here, in our world. Some kinda twist like that."
"No, my brothers are not secret criminals. ... Well, actually, I guess we all are because we break into places all the time. But that's to do good and whatever, so it evens out."
"But they don't, you know, rob police stations and then hide the loot in a prison?"
"... No. Nobody does that. Because that's stupid!"
"Okay, okay. Sheesh, cool your jets. I guess the purple mouse guy did have a lot raspier of a voice. And an accent. And the blue guy who said Blue is always leader had an accent that went in-and-out a lot. And your Mikey isn't an electric eel."
"You know, a lot of people here have voices we know too."
"Like who?"
"Like your Splinter sounds like an assassin tiger mutant who tries to kill us all the time. Pretty sure the guy had a thing for Shredder. And I'm sure you noticed your Donnie's robot guy sounds like Mikey."
"Oh, I'm glad you noticed too. I didn't wanna say anything because I think Shelldon would get mad about it. ... Hey, what was that about Pops sounding like an assassin who hates you?"
"It's fine, once we got over the initial fighting instinct whenever he talked it's easy to separate them in our heads."
"So that's why you kept almost pummeling him! You lied about it being how you greet dads in your dimension?"
"We shouldn't have let Mikey make the excuse."
"No no, we all totally believed it."
"Oh yeah, because this place is like if Mikey got to design a dimension. What else, uh... oh, that skeleton guy and his skin brother kind of sound like... well the skeleton is if our Sensei was Spanish, and the skin one sounds like Fishface. He also tries to kill us."
"Do you know any mutants who don't?"
"Do you?"
"Todd doesn't."
"Who the heck is Todd?"
"You guys don't have a Todd?! We're going to meet him right now! He makes lemonade with love and runs a puppy rescue, he's like the idea of Kindness turned into a person!"
"Wait wait, Love Lemonade isn't really my thi-!"
"TOO LATE!"
The others all watch as Raphie yanks the protesting Raph along behind him.
"Wow, so you guys really don't have a Todd?" Angelo looks distraught. "But then who helps you learn wilderness survival and helps you get mystic truffles?"
"Mystic truffles? Like chocolate?" Mikey lights up.
"No, like the mushroom!"
"Uh... there's different types of mushrooms?"
"I blame you for his lack of fungi knowledge," Donald says, not looking up from his phone.
"Well I blame you for ruining my voice," Donnie seethes, his voice coming out strained and scratchy. "You couldn't have waited to test that smoke bomb until I had a mask on?!"
"Well on the plus side, you totally sound like the skinny Foot Clan guy we know, so we can do some amazing crank calls." Leon nudges him with his elbow. "Come on, you know it'll be fun!"
Donnie growls at him.

[He waves his hands at this in a frustrated gesture:]
Tumblr media
"I don't know what you're talking about. What convenient distraction?" You ask, like a fool and a liar...
…Mhm. Mhm. It seems that with the internet comes the fact that evidence can now be recorded by people other than me.
Sighhhh. Well, I suppose there’s no benefit to lying to myself.
You likely won’t have to worry about this, since you managed to do what we couldn’t and prevent the apocalypse, but as you’ve probably assumed, the future hasn’t been… great. I myself have not sustained any permanent or life-threatening injuries, but others haven’t been so lucky.
S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N.- Mm. Shelldon dies a third time in this timeline. I don’t need to talk about it in great detail. But it’s taken- [He stops to think for a moment] -over a decade to even begin to rebuild him. He still retains memories, I couldn’t… get rid of that feature. Especially since it’s vital for an AI such as himself to learn from these events so that he can help prevent and assist with them in future.
…But he’s fine! There’s no need to worry about him, he’s alive now and he’s got a physical body again, and he’s doing well. Programmed some video games into his system to play when he’s bored. He talks to Junior, plays outside occasionally as long as he isn’t seen, helps out around the base…
Awkward cough. Let’s stray away from conversations like these, shall we? I don’t think discussing every death and inconvenience that’s happened in my timeline would be a productive use of our very valuable time.

Just checked the submissions. Talk to me about Shelldon.
Shelldon(officially S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. but that's stupid) is an AI created by Donnie! He initially started out as a housekeeper/aide that would do things like cleanign and cooking. However, his brothers got irritated because of Sheldon's blatant favoritism, and gave him... An upgrade, let's say. After that he started acting a lot more people-like (and murderous). Hijinks occur, familiacide is averted, and shelldon is a recurring side character in donnie-centric episodes, with a bit of a visual upgrade
Tumblr media
Until the final fight, where he is destroyed protecting Karai from the Shredder. We do not see him in the movie :(
Tumblr media
(look at his little man form I love him)
Hes voiced by the same va that was Mikey in the 2012 show and has a very surfer-bro attitude and lingo.
Now that we've gotten the artificial part out of the way, let's talk about the kid part.
Quote from the Wikipedia article on rottmnt, the summary of the episode Breaking Purple
" Donnie's parenting causes S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. to run away. When he makes his way to the park, he runs into the Purple Dragons who remove the restraining bolt from him and use him in their plans to win the drone races at the Thunder Dome hosted by Billionaire Guy Eccentric and obtain the Shadow Transmitter that would enable them to hack any system on the planet. Now Donatello must work to find S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. and makeup with him before the Purple Dragons succeed in their plot."
Classic teenage rebellion from parent, the episode also ends in this
Tumblr media
In conclusion
I submitted that, can he please get in on nepotism clause? I love him so much.

when ur anxious and depressed so you resort to talking to a turtle you’re slightly afraid of-
Anyways, anxiety has been getting bad lately and i feel like I haven’t finished ANY art recently. And I just feel shitty??? And I keep getting confused as to whether I have autism or addT_T
I would request to give you a hug, but I have a feeling that it would be awkward for both of us. Not to mention, you don’t know me, so you wouldn’t like it. Now I feel like spiralling. I would LIKE to be friends, but I feel like I’d be too stupid for you, or not able to keep up with your rants. I love reading them, but don’t understand much. I’m also probably too sensitive for you. I mean, yes I’m sarcastic and snarky, but if someone takes a jab at my ego I’m done for. Internally at least. I try not to show they’re hurt me. Plus, I feel weak when I cry, so I avoid it.
Urgh, I feel like a whiny kid now. I’m sorry for just complaining in ur ask box T_T
Are you afraid of me ? What have I done to frighten you? /gen Or is it a social anxiety thing?
I do know the feeling of being anxious & depressed. When I'm on top of that not getting anything done due to the exhaustion & internal stress it causes, I feel the same way as you do: unworthy & shitty. It's a vicious cycle!
Are you an artist? Mikey is, too. Maybe he could give some advice? From my perspective, pressure isn't going to be the solution. It makes my anxiety spiral into panic.
You're right with the assumption that I wouldn't like to hug yet, but that does not mean I wouldn't like to talk or be friends. I just... I have trouble with touch & if it's a stranger.... I can't. I'm sorry. I would... share a piece of my own pizza with you? Or I'd let you hug SHELLDON! He'd love it.
There is NO requirement to be allowed to talk to me. I'm flattered you enjoy my rants - you don't have to understand them. There are few people who do. If you want to talk to me, do it.
Have you seen me? I'm always extroverted, cunning & sarcastic, but I am very sensitive when it comes to misunderstandings & negative reactions too. Alas, like you, I don't show it when I'm hurt or when I'm anxious. I hate the vulnerability of my autism. It makes me a target of people who enjoy bullying others. That’s why I keep my bad boy image (& because I love the vibes of it).
Regarding your questioning: do research. Tons of it. There are a few good self-assesments freely available that can give you some direction. Also connecting to the autistic community! It helps a lot to talk about experiences. You can have BOTH conditions, though.
Here are some FREE tests for input:
RAADS-R, Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionaire, Autism Spectrum Quotient, AQ-10, Empathy Quotient, Aspie Quiz, ...
I'd recommend visiting the website embrace-autism.com! (As a starter)
You're not a 'whiny kid' & crying is not a weakness (that's what Mikey says & he's the expert in feelings).
I know I seem cold like ice, but here I am, vulnerable & emotional:
Tumblr media
Are you still afraid of me?

info for them undercut
Obligatory Separated AU
[rise] because, let's face it, everyone has a separated au, and for good reason! its a very fun and cool concept! and i want in!
anyways MY separated au is basically, splinter is like 'ehhh i actually am not fit to be a father and maybe i should be responsible and give them to like,, idk yokai adoption centre?] and like,,, they all get separated in the system and stuff. raph and leo bounce from house to house for a while. donnie and mikey stay at the first house they get. and like,,,, lots of things happen and when leo turns 13 he runs away from his house and runs into mikey and they click and i promise its a cool and good au.
A Pirates Life
[rise] its really silly and not at all angsty. i prommy [lying]. just imagine the turtles, except instead of sewers, its pirate ship. and there are mermaids and stuff.
Another Dawn Rises
[rise + 2012] my version of the bad kraang future
When Will The Lies End
[rise] its just a fluffy shellshocked [miles morales/mikey] au. except its a bit angsty too. donnie and leo go on a heist and steal cloaking brooches for the 4 after seeing sunitas and go to highschool. mikey becomes good friends with miles and things get tense when they both know the other is keeping secrets. and then. spiderverse and kraang invasion happens in a relatively short time span and like,,, they both are not having a good time.
this au is subject to alot of change. i might make this entirely different. idk. i just wanna make a shellshocked au ^_^
Going Silly Mode
[rise + 2012] Mikey sneezes and accidnetally summons 2012 raph mid air while he's swinging from building to building. after the initial scare and multiple death threats and a fist fight they work out whats happening. raph is still pretty sceptical for a while but then mikey shows him the hidden city and then raph is holding onto every word. mikey decides to keep small raph a secret and is totally not suspicious at all. the whole fic is just mikey and raph blowing things up and getting angry
Cetified WORST bodyswap au
[1987 + 2003 + 2012 + 2018] this is what i like to call THE WORST body swap au ever. i will not be able to write anything about it until i watch 03 and 87. however im putting it in the poll so that people know it exists. its horrendous i tell you. i choose all the worst options. the caseys, aprils and splinters will be included. i will also add random characters that i like. and dont like. i am taking suggestions for who you think would be abysmal to team up with. in fact, im probably going to add more version in the mix too, like the 2007 and 2014/16 movies. everyone will suffer. i domt think anyone will make it home unscathed. i feel bad for the aprils already.
Damn Bro... You Live Like This?
[2012 + Rise] its another interdimensional bodyswap au except this time im not going crazy with power. the ones who are getting swapped arrrreeee *drumrolls* 2012 Mikey and Rise Donnie. i think im hilarious. i want a mikey and mikey cooking lessons. i want donnie to geek put with donnie. i want rise leo to freak the fuck out when 'donnie' denies a coffee one morning and then talks exactly like shelldon. i want 2012 april to be so confused. i want 2012 splinter to compliment rise donnies inventions. i want 2012 mikey to have a tv marathon with splinter.
Wild Turtle Time
[rise] they grow up in a forest in the hidden city and become local myths to the local yokai. they get offerimgs and stuff and one day they get offered mystic weapons. leo accidentally portals them topside and they dont know how to get back. they decide they might as well keep this concrete jungle safe while theyre here and they learn how to use the weapons. while they are topside baron draxum has escaped prison and they dont realise how much danger theyre in. it gets,,, very dark,,,
i actually have so many au ideas its unreal. send me an ask if you wanna know more about any of these aus or if you wanna know about a completely different au.

I can't choose my favorite thing of this chapter omg (it's the line of "charming that you think i'll let anyone see you like that and live" it almost made me choke on my tea)
I was so so excited to see Hypno!! Not a character I give too much attention to normaly but !!!!!!! HE'S ADORABLE I WANTED TO GIVE HIM A HUG, i got so happy when Reader got to interact with him.
ALSO LEO OMG ES8GJI0SDPDGHSOIFASFISDFJKSLMASJD i like him more every time he opens his mouth. That sarcastic bitch.
I swear I can hear their voices so clearly when I read them.
Also, the scene of Donnie doing Reader's make up? i can't even explain it to you, so warm so wholesome so funny
And talking about warm feelings, The first scene with reader's roomie made me so happy, i almost felt sad at the tought that reader will eventually move.
Also "you smell like him, sex and spunk" I ALMOST FORGOT THAT THIS ALL WAS HAPPENING WHILE READER HAD-
Anyways, I can't fall in love w real people anymore because you just created the most perfect man. His murdery tendencies are cute to me and- AND I JUST REMEMBERED HYPNO'S COMMENT ABOUT LEMME JUST-
“As long as my work is still your go to! Speaking of…! How were the streetlamps?” Hypno adjusted his posture along with his lapels, oozing pride. “Quite a lot that one. A real nightmare-!”
TELL ME IM NOT CRAZY
Ahhhhhh thank you so much for saying you can hear their voices!! I studied so many videos to hopefully capture the way they spoke! It means the world to hear that came through!
You're so sweet. I'm moved! This chapter had a lot of parts so I was worried it'd be a bit of an overload. I love that you pointed out the make-up scene. I imagined it to be so tender and I'm pleased that you did as well! Also Hypno! I love the guy and had to give him some spotlight. Seeing him well received, he might get the Shelldon treatment and more screentime in Weak Spot!
The plug has been on and off everyone's mind 😏😂
Ah yes, if anyone was still on the fence: you are not crazy. Hypno was responsible for the reality bending in chapter 16

Clash of the Geniuses (ROTTMNT Fanfic)
Chapter 1
It was a beautiful Summer day in New York City. People were either having picnics at the closest parks or just wanting to explore the sights and main attractions just to have a good time. 
But a certain purple-clad turtle was cooped up in his lab down in the sewers. The reason why Donnie chose to stay home on such a fine day was so he can have some peace and quiet while working on a new project... which was easier said than done when you have three rowdy brothers.
Today, however, was different; Raph went to Teddy Bear Town on a shopping spree, Mikey has been spending more time with Baron Draxum and Splinter since the disastrous Hidden City trip, and finally, Leo went to a local skate park just to show off some new tricks.
Donnie honestly wouldn’t care less about spending an entire day outside if it meant not finishing his latest invention. Luckily, he has Shelldon to help him out with whatever he needs. 
“Hey Donnie, you sure you don’t wanna go outside?” The drone asks. “Everyone else is doing stuff but us.”
“What are you talking about, Shelldon?” His creator raised a brow at this question. “We are doing something. Oh, and pass me that combination wrench to your right.”
Shelldon handed him the tool as told when Donnie’s phone suddenly starts ringing. The softshell turtle groans at the interruption. “I swear if that’s Leo calling me to tell one of his stupid one-liners again, I’m gonna--”
“No dude, it’s April.”
“Oh,” Donnie grabs his phone to answer it. The screen reveals the African American girl’s panicked face. “Hey, April. Do you need help fixing your laptop again?”
“Mayhem’s been kidnapped!” She shouts, causing her friends to recoil back in shock.
“Seriously... this is a joke, right? Donnie asks, slowly. “The little guy can teleport remember?”
“Let me explain,” April starts off. “We were at the park when suddenly a group came to me and demanded that I give them Mayhem. They attacked us when I refused and managed to capture him in some sort of mystic prison box or whatever! And the reason why I called you is because you can trace mystic energy.”
“Mystic prison box?” The turtle asks, skeptically. His eyes then widen in realization; Draxum’s former guards used something a bit similar to trap Mayhem when they first met.
“Don’t worry, April. Shelldon and I will hunt these rapscallions and bring him back,” He says, heaving a sigh.
“Thanks, D.”
After hanging up, Donnie gets up from his seat and grabs his equipment. “Well Shelldon, looks like we’re postponing our project to go on a rescue mission.”
“Yeah, rescue mission!” Shelldon zooms out of the lab in excitement, Donnie shaking his head in slight amusement.

Donnie is acting as a host for this stream, his model dressed in a purple tuxedo, black shoes, his mask with charms, and a microphone headset.
The main focus of the stream is a race between Shelldon and River, they're racing to get to the post-game post-game of Pokémon Sword and Shield. A.K.A. Beat The Wannabe Royal Idiot's!
"Now on the left side of the screen, my eldest AI child, Shelldon who will be playing Shield. And on the right wide of the screen, my little robot softshell, River who will be playing Sword!" Donnie pauses to let the chat feed scroll by very quickly for a few seconds. "They are competing to see who plays Violet, they both want Miraidon, who will Win?!"
Chat goes wild, with people choosing sides, and predictions are being made.
"Ready?"
"I was built ready!" "Totally!"
"Then... Begin!"
Donnie steps back, and watches Shelldon and River start their games, and gets through the first cutscene in the game.
River chooses Scorbunny and number 404, and Shelldon chooses Sobble and number 001.
The game goes on with the two trash talking, in binary, eachother. Mocking eachothers choice of Pokémon, and which clothes they both take a detour to change into.
Some of the chat keeps trying to decode the binary, but Donnie also keeps stopping them, both chat and his Robo Kids, mid way through.
There are questions about possible cheating, but Donnie assures the chat, that the two don't have access to cheats, or exploits, right when the two both get Shiny Vulpix in the fire gym.
"Did you two cheat!!" He shouts.
"Nope! Just lucky." "Nah Dude. Trust."
"Why do I not believe you two?!"
After a quick pause to check the games for tampering, and finding none, the games continued. With many still questioning things.
They take a break before the tournament to make sure Shelldon and River weren't overworking themselves, and put up a image of Shelldon and River having a tea party that read 'BRB snack time!'
-------------------
Masterpost
I don't know who wins. I just know there had to be a frame by frame rewatching to figure out who got through the scenes first.

Curse of the Clan part 53! @selfindulgenz @scentedcandlecryptid
“How do we track Krang?” Leonardo asked when the story concluded.
“You don’t.” Was Knight’s answer, “If Krang is free, he will be seeking revenge on the ones who trapped him; it may not have been you in this life, but Krang will not see the difference. All you can do is wait and trust your instincts. You wouldn’t have been reincarnated if you couldn’t complete this task. He will come to you, and after he does and you defeat him, the council will be there to clean up the mess…
~~~
Back at the lair, Leonardo was stewing in his own thoughts. He, for one, was never good at waiting. If something had to get done, it had to get done right that moment, as soon as possible. No delays, no time for second guessing. Sitting there on the couch, surrounded by his family, doing nothing was the worst kind of torment! He just wanted Krang to find them and fast so they could handle the conflict and return to their normal lives. All this waiting was driving him crazy and he just felt so helpless—
“I feel the same way, Leonardo.” Splinter’s voice sliced through the silence like a blade and made everyone look toward him.
“What?” Michelangelo asked, the fastest one to break out of the silence that had plagued them.
“I feel helpless too.” Splinter said with a slow nod, closing his eyes in solidarity.
“Too?” Raphael asked slowly.
“Yes.” Splinter said; now he too was confused as he opened his eyes and looked around at the faces staring back at him. “Like… like Blue said.”
Silence, followed by Leonardo saying, “No I didn't…”
“No?” Splinter’s ears pressed back. He looked from Leonardo to the rest, who all shook their heads. “Oh…”
Draxum hummed, unamused. “I guess we found Yoshi’s power.”
More silence. The faint trickling of water was a constant this low in the sewer. The rumble of Donatello’s machines across the lair, the hum of the fridge, the low drone of the television that even Splinter wasn’t paying attention to. Eventually, the steady tapping of Leonardo’s fingers joined the melody of background noise.
“I want a kitten.” Michelangelo stated.
“What?” Raphael, and all others, turned to Michelangelo.
“After this whole Krang thing is done, I want a kitten.” Michelangelo stated again, closing his eyes and nodding matter-a-factly, “A fluffy orange kitten and I’m gonna name him Klunk. And I’m gonna buy him the most expensive cat trees to ignore, and give him wet food every day, and buy him lots of feather toys to play with. And he’ll sleep with me every day.”
There were a few moments of the clan looking around at each other, Michelangelo’s hopeful statements ringing in their minds.
“After we defeat Krang…” Leonardo was the next to talk, mind set on breaking the awkward silence, “You know what we’re gonna do? We’re finally gonna finish that Hip Hop Christmas Album.”
His words were met with groans from his father and siblings and confused murmurs from his friends.
“You’re still on that?” April groaned, shaking her head and laughing.
Leonardo threw his arms into the air in surrender. “It’s a good idea! Just because you’re all lame doesn’t mean a hip hop teenage ninja turtle mutant album isn’t a good idea! Have you heard my voice?”
“More than I would care to have.” Donatello commented, rolling his eyes.
“You’re welcome!” Leonardo said, flopping over to rest against Donatello and pull the softshell close, “Love you brother! And Let me guess; you want uranium when this is all said and done.”
“No.” Donatello said with a scoff, then immediately added, “Well— yeah. But I also wanna rebuild Shelldon…” Donatello carefully removed his necklace so he could hold Shelldon’s memory chip in his hand. He stared at it for a long, drawn out moment before Leonardo carefully brought his hand against Donatello’s so they were holding Shelldon together. Donatello finally smiled. “It… it’ll be my next big project… I really miss him…”
Leonardo smiled and rubbed Donatello’s shoulder, which in turn made Donatello rest his full weight into Leonardo and lay his head on his twin's shoulder. Leonardo welcomed the affection gladly and wrapped an arm around the softshell.
April took a deep breath through her nose. “I… would kinda like to start sending in college applications.” She brushed her hair out of the way of her face, “Thinking about going into journalism…”
That was met with an uproar of applause from all but Draxum, who didn't quite seem to know what college was. April was swarmed by hugs and affectionate touches from her friends as they praised her.
“You know we’ll support you every step of the way, Apes!” Raphael declared.
“Yeah! Just way the word and we’ll get you into any school you want!” Leonardo prodded April’s chest. “Within reason, of course.”
“Okay, we need role models, teachers, sources—we’re missing the references, people!” Donatello immediately pulled out his phone and started on seeking out potential references.
“Guys!” April laughed as she shoved the turtles off of her, “All I saw was I was considering it! Still gotta finish up school first.”
“It never hurts to be prepared.” Donatello said.
“Well… I’m not so sure what I wanna do yet.” Sunita said, laughing weakly as she twiddled her hair, “Maybe just get out in the workforce, try some things out…? Maybe something with children?”
“There’s no rush.” Draxum reassured, “I was well into my adult years before I realized I wanted to be an evil, warring warrior scientist!”
“And ignoring that note…” Splinter said slowly, then cleared his throat, “I want to adopt another goldfish. Since Piebald was flushed and mutated, I’ve been feeling a little bit lonely.”
“We can get you another one, Splints.” April smiled as she patted the old rats back affectionately.
“Pathetic!” Draxum growled, jumping from his seat and onto the table so he could make his announcement loud and proud, “While you waste your time adopting a normal, puny goldfish, I shall adopt a shark! And name him Sharky and train him to fight for our cause.”
“It’s not a competition…” Splinter grumbled, slightly jealous that he hadn't thought of it first.
“What do you want to do Cassandra?” Michelangelo asked innocently.
Cassandra considered. Then, taking a page out of Draxum’s book, she kicked over the chair she was sitting in so she could stand on it like a sailor on the bow of his ship tasting the salty winds.
“I want to rip our enemies to shreds, dance on their graves, then dig them back up and—“
“CJ, CJ, CJ.” Leonardo had to repeat the name a few times before he got Cassandra’s attention, standing up to address her while she stared down at him, “We’ve all been talking about, you know, getting pets and jobs and stuff. Killing and then dancing on the graves of our enemies is just a liiiiiiiittle much. So bring the bar just just a little bit. Just a little. Think smaller.”
Cassandra took a while to answer, struggling to think of just one, small thing she really wanted to do. She flipped her chair back over so she could sit backward in it and rest her head on the backrest. Her eyes lit up all at once and she finally knew what she wanted to do.
“I… kinda really want to rebuild my parents old bakery. It was burned down when I was just a kid and… and it was never rebuilt. It’s their legacy and I want to restore it if I can…”
“Aw, that’s sweet Casey…” April wrapped an arm around Cassandra and gave her a gentle squeeze, “If anyone can do that, it’s the great Cassandra Jones!”
“Thanks, Apes…”
“Raph?” Leonardo said with a gentle urgence, “You’re the last one. What do you want to do when we win?”
“I… it’s kinda stupid…” Raphael rubbed the back of his neck.
“We’ll be the judge of that.” Leonardo said, “Lay it on us!”
“I… kinda wanna do a secret santa gift exchange.” Raphael admitted, “One where we all make the presents and don’t just buy the first cheap thing we see. You know… something more special…”
Leonardo smiled widely. “That’s not stupid at all, hermano. In fact? I think that’s the best one yet!”
