transcript:
Rockwell:
Dr. Von Ryan! I was just on my way back to the lab with the files you wanted me to get. Falco's proposal seems quite interesting, if you accept I would love to take point on-
Shelldon:
Yeah, I don't know about all that, bro.
R, thinking:
A robot?! How did it get in here? And that's Dr. Von Ryan's badge! Should I set off an alarm? The fire alarm? How fast is it-
S:
Ha-ha! I'm not supposed to ve out-n-about, but Pops forgot his lunch at home. Since they did that whole "made in my image" thing, I figured if I threw on one of their lab coats I could be in 'n out, easy!
R, thinking:
That seems like them...
S:
But then I got lost! Cat's outta the bag now tho, so. Care to help me out?
R, thinking:
At least if it's dangerous Dr. Von Ryan can take care of it.
Dr. Von Ryan! You have a-uh. visitor?

Donnie is mid stream one day playing a cozy game, because he wanted to have a more chill stream. Large mug of coffee he grew and brewed himself.
Shelldon: Hey D, someone wants to know what you're drinking!
Donnie: Well, it's just some coffee that I got, custom blended, from a small business. They also had some nice tea, or at least that's what my brother says.
Shelldon: They want to know where you got it from.
Donnie: (secretly self promote my side coffee/tea business, or...) well they haven't fully set up yet, they don't have enough stock to sell yet. They gave us some stuff for helping them move in.
Shelldon: Do they have a name at least?
Donnie: Shelldon, are people in chat actually interested in my coffee, or is someone bribing you to turn this into a not sponsored advertisement?
Shelldon: ... it's called The Caffeinated Turtle, D is drinking the 'Supernova Electron' blend!
Donnie: Shelldon!
Shelldon: B offered me some new graphics!!
Donnie: Shelldon, I'm the only one who can upgrade your system, and I just said there isn't enough stock to sell anything yet!! There isn't even a site or store to order from!!
Shelldon: Well M said they wanted to convert a train car into a café.
Donnie: Don't make promises we can't keep!!
The chat is spamming emotes, and questioning what's going on. Donnie puts Shelldon in time out, and attempts to calm down and continue the game.
Then a little jingle plays, and a poster graphic rolls down with a logo for The Caffeinated Turtle Coffee and Tea.
Donnie: Whoever is doing this, I will password lock all your devices for 2 months!!
Chat is still confused especially since emotes of the logo just unlocked.
Donnie screams, puts the stream in 'Break Mode' to track down who's messing with his stream.
The chat wonders if this is real, or the most elaborate sponsored marketing stunt ever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Masterpost
Donnie has also on many occasions tried to not fully connect the stream to his Genius Built company, but has plans to 'get sponsored' by his company, but can't find a good excuse just yet.
The other brothers were 'gifted' an AI for their streams, if only to monitor them, and make sure they don't say too much. She/They're named River, they're based on a softshell, coloured teal, she looks similar to Shelldon, but doesn't 'float' she swims in the air or walks along the bottom of the screen, she tends to smack the chat box with a fan to symbolize someone getting banned.(yes this is my oc I wanted a way to integrate her in)

Tumblr media
Warnings: opinions, spoilers for the movie
A/N: self-indulgent... I really like thinking about this stuff. Mikey's is really short, for some reason... I'm also at the hospital today, so please know that I'll be trying my best to work on things! <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donnie
Receiving:
Words of Affirmation. He constantly chases it in "Turtledega Nights: The Ballad of Rat Man." "Did you hear that, Mikey? I think he was about to say 'proud!' I'm going to chase this feeling!" You also hear Donnie say "This will teach you to compliment my work and give me my first positive reinforcement from a parent-aged adult..! Ever!" Just tell him he's doing great, please. He needs it.
Physical Touch. As much as you see Donnie avoid hugs from his family, he's touch starved. Physical touch isn't just hugging though, maybe he just wants to feel someone with him or hold hands. Especially after the Kraang invasion, I think this would be his #1.
Giving:
Gifts! In "Donnie's Gifts" he gives the boys gifts... "The real thing is much more personal and thoughtful. And I really hope you like it. Cause if you don't, I will just be crushed." I mean, he thinks his tech is the only reason anyone likes him. "If mystic powers can do everything I can do, but better... Why would you guys even need me?" Donnie makes things for his family all the time, even Shelldon 1.0 was made to help clean up the lair so they could go out more.
Acts of Service. In my opinion this goes hand-in-hand with gifts. He doesn't just make them things, he makes things that have a purpose. Shelldon was created to help clean the lair, Mikey's suit was made to protect him, ect. He also installed an app on April's phone to protect her. Plus every time he's with Mikey and something comes at them, he protects Mikey.
Leo
Receiving:
Words of Affirmation. In the movie, Casey tells him he's the greatest and all that jazz. He's so happy to be recognized as a leader. "You are the greatest ninja the world has ever seen." "Remember I'm the greatest ninja the world's ever seen, his words." Leo wants to know he's doing a good job because he's constantly doubting himself. When he does get complimented, he's over the moon. In "Bad Hair Day" we see how he reacts when people compliment his beautiful, blond locks.
Quality Time. A lot of the time he's just spending time with his brothers. Though he doesn't turn down a hug, he definitely likes being around his family and friends. (I honestly don't really have an explanation... just a feeling)
Giving:
Words of Affirmation. He's the best at apologies, he's good with words. It's the best way for him to express himself. "Dad! Dad! Daddy! You got this, pops! I love you!" Even sick he has to compliment Raph, although it's a little backhanded. "I love you, my brother... But you do tend to fail in big moments. Pish Posh. But that's what makes you, you."
Acts of Service. He carried Mikey in "Sidekick Ahoy!" He also was helps Hueso and Piel. "What? You can't quit on your brother. When Donnie needed me to pull out his baby tooth, did I give up? No! I kept yanking and pulling and twisting till it came out. Sure it was the wrong one, but it was a big tooth."
Mikey
Receiving:
Physical Touch. I don't think Mikey ever really turns down a hug...
Quality Time. He wants to participate in things. Due to being the youngest, it means the word to him if he's included.
Giving:
Physical Touch. He initiates a lot of touching. Especially with Donnie. He's the one that Donnie lets touch him the most. Almost every time Donnie and Mikey are together, they touch at least once and Donnie doesn't seem to hate it.
Words of Affirmation. "That regardless of where our DNA is from, you’re still our dad." Plus his whole Dr. Feelings persona.
Raph
Receiving:
Words of Affirmation. He's been the leader for... 16 years? He wants to know he's doing a good job. "WILL YOU GUYS KNOCK IT OFF!! We're running out of time! Everyone's depending on me. Why can't I do this..? I'm failing you." "It's not all on you Raph. We're here for each other. Trust that."
Acts of Service. I don't think you ever really see it, but when he kind of gets to relax and everything he feels a lot better. Taking care of his brothers for 18-16 years can really take a toll on you. So being taken care of is the best feeling.
Giving:
Acts of Service. Raph will literally drop everything to help his brothers. "Hey buddy uh just checking in, making sure you’re okay. Everything okay? You're okay right? ... My overprotective brother sense is tingling. Donnie tap into their security camera." Raph worries about his brothers a lot, especially Mikey. Even in the movie, he saves Leo, Mikey, and Donnie. "Gotcha! Don't worry, Donnie! This is not a hug. It's a rescue!"
Physical Touch. He never turns down any form of touch from his brothers. He cares so much about them. He also constantly puts his hand on their shoulders to reassure them.

It's my favourite colour
Request: I don’t really know if your ask box isnopen so I really hope it is.
could I maybe ask for a rise Donnie x reader (female is preferable but Gender neutral is alright with me) where the reader’s favorite color is purple and she always wears it. Then one day she’s sitting in the lab with Donnie when he can’t stop staring and eventually the reader makes a joke like: “what? You wanna kiss me or smth?” And he just takes it seriously and nods.
I dunno. Brain doing brain things.
----------------------------------------------------------
Tumblr media
The lair was oddly quiet to say it was so close to the weekend, while the two days off didn't really mean anything to the turtles, it meant a lot to you and April. Those two days would give you a break from school and work, allowing you to chill out at home and in the lair with the boys.
Speaking of which, you couldn't see any of the turtle brothers as you entered their underground home, which was weird, to say the least. Your black detective coat hung around your form, protecting your insides from the cold blizzards up above. The edges of the coat swayed romantically as you stalked around the lair; assuming the teens to be pulling another prank on you.
However, no prank came. They were simply nowhere in sight, not even Splinter or Draxum were around. But the tell-tale sound of machine parts roaring in the distance alerted you to where one turtle could be; your favourite turtle too. You skipped towards Donnie's lab, you had actually been meaning to talk to the turtle, you drastically needed someone to reread your English paper and Donnie was just the guy.
Walking into the wide metal doors, the smell of oil and burnt iron invaded your senses. Over in the corner of the room, with his shell facing towards you, was Donnie. 
"Hey, D." you beamed, already giddy by his presence. You strolled up to his side, watching as he tinkered with parts you couldn't even name, "Greetings," was all he said. You looked around the expansive lab, searching for something specific in mind, "If you're looking for your chair, it's over by Shelldon." Donnie stated, not even looking away from his project. 
You blushed, he knew you so well or were you just becoming predictable. Patting Shelldon's lifeless head, you picked the chair up, knowing better than to drag it across the floor. Once it was perched not too closely to Donnie's side, you shimmied off your coat and draped it across the back of your seat. 
Donnie gave you a side eye, studying yet another purple outfit. Did you know how much you were killing him by wearing his colour? Did you even know what it was doing to him? You had been wearing purple all week, coming down in extremely fashionable outfits that all followed the central theme of purple.
It's like you were playing some game, a very sick and sadistic little game. But Donnie couldn't help to swoon over your accidental actions too, well he assumed they were accidental. He knew you shared a similar interest in the colour purple, but at the same time, he never knew one person besides himself could own this much purple fabric.
"What're you looking at?" you mumbled, dusting off some lingering fur that lined the inside of your coat. Donnie stuttered, flailing the small drill in his hands around, "N-nothing, absolutely nothing!" You quirked a brow at his behaviour, you know someone doesn't just stare at you if they didn't have anything to say.
"Oh, ok." Donnie relented, he placed down the drill, still trying to act aloof, "You- you look good in purple, I've seen you around the lair wearing that colour, my colour, all week." you remained quiet, unsure what this meant. Was Donnie trying to make a move on you or monopolise the colour purple?
"W- thank you, I think purple looks good on you too." you hummed, priding yourself on seeing his cheeks deepen in colour. It was like Donnie had been shot by Cupid's arrow, his eyelids had drooped, his smile had become wobbly and his sighs became louder. He was totally, utterly, stupidly in love with you. 
"What?" you threw out a nervous giggle, your own cheeks turning rosy at the look he was giving you; full of care and warmth. You pulled at the sleeves of your shirt, fingers fumbling to distract the onslaught of nerves that took over your mind, "You wanna kiss me or something?" it was meant to be a joke, something to pull you away from the glistening pool in his eyes.
But when Donnie just nodded along, completely at ease with the reality of the situation, you felt your brain stutter. With wide eyes, you pointed a shaking finger at yourself, "Wait, really? With me?" you questioned. Donnie held back a laugh, but the notorious smirk he was known for graced his lips, "I believe I do, w-would you like to do...that with me?"
He wished he could have said something sweeter than that, but thoughts about feelings and actually feeling feelings weren't really his thing; not that he really tried to make it his thing either. 
Fortunately, you recreated his previous actions and shook your head rapidly. Donnie's dopey grin grew larger in size, his cheeks stinging with just how much he was smiling. You both leant forward, perhaps too eager as you hit your foreheads together. But with the awkward laugh aside, you eventually melted into each other with ease. 
"Hey, D, we're bac- WHOA!" Leon gasped, the pizza box in his hands dropped to the floor, "Oh ho hooo," he began laughing, not really caring that this was a very private moment for his brainiac twin brother. Donnie yelled at him, throwing random nuts and bolts until Leo fled the scene. Though he did poke his head back in to deliver one more line, "If you dress up in blue all week will you kiss me too?"
"LEO!"

platonic yan rottmnt turtles hcs if you're comfortable
A/N, not important: Sorry this took so long, my B. Almost every one of these can be applied to the romantic too, just you know, made more romantic. There are also some on the romantic hcs that can be applied here, but less of them. Kind of like how every square is a rectangle, but not all rectangles are squares. All these fit into romantic, but not all romantic fit into the platonic. Any criticism is welcome, constructive or not. This is supposed to be a gender neutral reader, so if I screwed up somewhere, please tell me.
-Ollie
Tw: blood bond mention(Leo), kidnapping, delusions, yandere themes, erratic behavior, Raph babying you, stalking, tracking without consent, spyware, unconsentual touching(non-nsfw, ie: hugs), jealousy, forced friendship
Words: 1371
Summary: platonic yandere rottmnt turtles headcanons
Mikey:
Mikey is the most likely to see you as his sibling, having decided in his mind you both must be related.
Mikey cherishes you as a friend, and whether he sees you as a sibling or just his best bud, he’s acting the same for the most part.
Likes to hang out with you a lot one on one. He doesn’t want to share you with your other friends.
Gets mad easily if you can’t hang out with him because of your other friends or family plans.
You’re his friend, you should be hanging out with him!
Tries to make plans with you for almost every day of the year. You can’t hang out with other people if you’re scheduled for a bake off with Mikey that day. 
If he can’t make plans with you, he tries his very best to get you to cancel your plans with your friends. If you refuse? Uh oh, looks like that bakery you were hanging out at just happened to get destroyed. Must’ve been a random mutant. How disappointing. But at least you can hang out with Mikey now!
Is still incredibly clingy, and he gets pissy if you try to push him off. He understands you’re not comfortable with it, but it still makes him upset.
Subtly guilts you into hanging out with him more. Mikey doesn’t have that many human friends, he just wants to hang out with you. Do you not want to be friends with him anymore? Is he not good enough for you?
If you call him out on his behavior, he tries to play it off. He doesn’t want to admit what he’s doing is wrong, but he’ll tone it down for a couple days before returning to his usual intensity.
Whenever he draws his little family portraits, you’re there too. He never forgets to add you. 
He’ll eventually try and keep you in the lair, probably after a sleepover.
You’re family to him, you should live with him. Plus, you’re his best friend. Why should you leave? You can both have sleepovers every night now.
Donnie:
Wants to control your life. Who you talk to, what classes you take, what your job is, and everything in between. He still tries to make you keep a schedule, and gets upset if you try to fight him on it.
Has a tracker on you and your phone. Has the ‘Donnie Blocker’ on your phone like April’s, as well as some possible spyware.
Still doesn’t like touch, would rather have you hang out with him and help him in his lab.
Shows off a lot in front of you. You’re his best friend, and he doesn’t want you to get bored and find someone else.
Won’t take responsibility for anything he does that is inherently ‘wrong’.
If you have arguments, he ignores you for days, trying to make you feel bad. He’ll whine and complain to his brothers and April, hoping his sorrow gets back to you.
Low empathy for when you're upset with something he does.
If you find out about the trackers, spyware, or other stuff he’s done, he’ll try to lie, or fess up but claim it was for your own good.
Refuses to take them off despite being caught. He might pretend to, but he doesn't
If you ignore him, he’ll just send SHELLDON to go hang out with you for a while. SHELLDON doesn’t leave until you visit Donnie again.
He constantly tries to convince you to stay in the lair.
In his mind, you being there with him would benefit you more than continuing to leave and go to school. He even offers to set up an online school for you or to teach you himself. If you don’t try and leave, of course.
If he sees you as a sibling, it’s mostly the same as how he treats Mikey. You get special treatment, but unlike Mikey, you’re never really left alone. Whether it’s Donnie or his tech, you’re always accompanied. He doesn't want anything to happen to you, after all.
Raph:
Is still really over protective. Treats you like a more fragile Mikey.
He refuses to let you join along on missions or patrols, even if it should be a rather safe one.
Takes control of the friendship in a way? Is constantly trying to build the trust between the both of you and strengthen the friendship.
Raph tries to keep you from hurting yourself, but he ends up acting like an overbearing mother. Everything you do is judged by Raph, and he worries more than he should about your safety.
Practically suffocates you with his concern, never letting you do anything he deems ‘dangerous’.
Insists on sleepovers whenever he can convince you, and drags you into the turtle piles with his brothers.
As far as Raph is concerned, you’re family. Family gets dragged into turtle piles.
Dotes on you like an older brother. Is fairly aggressive with your friends that he deems ‘unsuitable’.
He’s constantly interested in what’s going on in your life, and always asks questions and tries to get a good read on any drama you have.
Will just… Pick you up. Like he does to his brothers, if he deems you not going somewhere fast enough, he’ll just hoist you into his arms and carry you there. Gets sad if you fight it.
Doesn’t like it when you get mad at him or try to set boundaries. Can’t you see everything he’s doing is just for your well being? He only wants to keep you safe, it’s his duty as a brother, and a friend.
Is the most likely after Mikey to see you as a sibling. You’re his family, and it’s his job to keep his family safe. You just need extra protection. You(most likely) weren’t training since you were a tot in ninjutsu.
Because of how much you stayed over already, Raph made sure you had a spare room. One day, you just couldn’t leave the room. Or the lair.
But why would you try to run? Family sticks together, after all.
Leo:
Constantly jealous of your other friends.
He doesn’t get to talk to and make bonds with a lot of humans, so he’s really overprotective of his friendship with you.
Especially if he starts to see you as a sibling.
However, Leo is the least likely to end up genuinely believing you’re related. He’ll see you as an honorary sibling, but he knows you’re not actually related.
Still guilt trips you, especially if you go to hang out with your other friends instead of him. He makes a whole fuss on how you should be spending time with him instead. He’s a mutant after all, it’s not like he has anyone else.
Leo gets all pouty when you ignore him while you're visiting the lair, constantly trying to get your attention away from his brothers. You’re his best friend, not theirs.
Will bribe his brothers to leave the lair when you come over. It’s his job as your best friend to keep you happy and make sure you’re having fun. How can he do that when his brothers are always around, taking your attention away from him?
Will actually drag you along on the less dangerous missions/light patrols. He purely wants to show off to you or start a competition with you. His brothers don’t mind, as long as it doesn't end up compromising the mission.
You know that blood bond thing, where you cut a wound and press the cuts together to mix blood? Yeah, Leo wants you both to do that.
“It’s just a thing friends do to bond, why are you being so weird about it? Oh please, don’t tell me you’re a chicken.”
Is the definition of ‘gaslight, gatekeep, guilt trip, girlboss’.
You don’t get a moment of peace with him. He’s constantly dragging you around to go do stuff together. 
He’s terrified of losing you. You’re his best friend, his rock, his ally. You’re always there for him, he needs you. Honestly, it’s your fault for giving him so much attention. Just stay his best friend forever. He promises to let you pick the movie this time.

Hydrodynamic AU
uhhh hi so. This has been cooking in my brain for a few months now (6???) and basically it’s a ROTTMNT Separated AU with Donnie as the focus but like, y’know. It’s all of them. I call it Hydrodynamic AU cause a lot of it comes from Donnie being more…water-based I suppose?? Either way. Yeah.
The story (if I ever find the willpower to draw it up) would revolve around Donnie going out and finding their siblings in the various locations; not to try and turn them towards the side of light or whatever. Donnie just wants to hang out. The universe has other plans, however.
More on each character under the cut!!! And lmk if any of you are interested in this!
Tumblr media
Donatello Hamato
•Raised by Splinter
•They/them pronouns (Non-binary!!)
•Goes by the usual canon nicknames, but mainly uses “Dee”
•This Dee’s whole thing is being extremely water-based
•Donnie actually knows Repo Mantis before he got mutated! They started sneaking into his junkyard as a kid and got caught and they actually bonded
•When Don got older, they started helping Repo out with repossessing work; the two are even closer after Repo mutated!
•Don usually doesn’t wear their battleshell in this AU! It gets in the way of swimming stuff, so they prefer to be without it most of the time
•All of their stuff is painstakingly designed to the waterproof
•The whole lair has a ton of water slides in it, it’s super fun
•AUTISTIC!!!
•Don is extremely bad at socializing and doesn’t know how to mask (nor do they care for it). Can’t identify social cues well.
•Still friends with April; Don also hangs out with the Purple Dragons regularly (they give them ✨validation✨)
•Athletic only in how they’re an avid swimmer
•Really likes Lou Jitsu movies, and likes hearing their father talk about the films
•Splinter helps them train when they ask, thought Donnie also trains on their own with just. Copious amounts of research and looking up techniques
•Splinter is also extremely overprotective of D due to both their soft shell and the fact that he lost D’s siblings previously.
•More open to active destruction than canon Don?? At least in the way that’s like. More disregarding the well-being of others sometimes. Basically this Donnie doesn’t have their brothers to stop them from doing stuff. Violence and loose morals ensue.
•Builds Shelldon earlier on in life (was lonely and wanted company)
•Don has thoroughly explored the city’s sewers and set up tons of markers so they wouldn’t get lost; they’ve practically memorized the layout underground by now. Don has also installed a filtration system in the sewers to help take care of pollution because they don’t like how icky the waters can get
•Uses more turtle noises than actual words at times
•Fights with tech bō staff, but also knows the basics of other weapons; has the second most proficiency in daggers/knives.
•Doesn’t know anything about mysticism until meeting Mars and Draxum
•Technically, Donnie meets Mars first, then Leo, then Rento. However, we later find out that Don has met one of their siblings beforehand and knew of their existence. But that’s for later.
Tumblr media
Marciano Draxum
•Raised by Draxum
•He/they pronouns
•Goes by Mars most commonly, but other nicknames include Marc, Marcie, Mar-Mar, Marky, Marce, and Marcus
•Draxum is actually a good parent okay
•Instead of Doctor Feelings and Doctor Delicate Touch, we get Sir Feelings and Sir Delicate Touch (they’re used as ranks, it’s some class thing idk. It’s ranked below Baron is all I know)
•Feral
•At a certain age Draxum started letting them out more (with supervision) and Mars got super friendly with all the yōkai he came across!! Due to this, Draxum has a much stronger active relationship with the Hidden City yōkai community.
•Mars uses their free time to create art around the Hidden City
•Has never seen the surface; wonders what the sky looks like
•Extremely strong mystic powers that were discovered early on
•Mars knows like, everyone in the city, and by the time they’re older are allowed to go about it from the lab as he pleases.
•Has a secret fascination with humans and their stuff that he keeps from his dad
•Draxum mellows out a tad raising Mars, being fatherly and all that. Still wants to take down humanity, he just wouldn’t do it if it meant endangering his child.
•Mars is an extremely adept fighter, having trained with Draxum since they were able to.
•Secret love for Lou Jitsu movies that he found one day in the yōkai markets
•He and Leo have met before and they have a very intense rivalry. Those two. Do not like one another.
•The reason behind the name “Marciano” is that I doubted Draxum would name his kid after some human artist. “Marciano” has French, Italian, and Latin origins, though I was mainly going for Latin when I chose it. It means little warrior! The name also has a lot of relation to the Roman god of war, Mars, which also happens to be the main nickname I picked! So it fits.
•Doesn’t like to kill; would rather thoroughly incapacitate a person through extreme measures instead.
•Terrible swimmer
•Draxum’s whole place is a lot more…nice looking? It’s got more style and creativity to it. Mars helped decorate.
•Fights with kusari-fundo and hand-to-hand mostly. Also knows the basics of fighting with other weapons.
Tumblr media
Leonardo
•Raised by Big Mama
•He/him pronouns
•Trans man
•Goes by Leo most commonly; the other in-canon nicknames still apply too
•Both outfits are colored after Leo’s pride flags
•The paint designs vary a lot, Leo likes to show variety
•After meeting Donnie, he actually starts to incorporate more purple into his color scheme!
•Gay gay gay gay gay gay GAY.
•Fights in the Battle Nexus for fun; really loves the thrill of it.
•Spoiled
•Manipulative as fuck, picked it up from his mother. EXTREMELY good at lying
•Gets bored easily and will act out to negate this feeling
•Talks a whole lot while fighting; always making jokes, trying to throw his opponents off their game. (Think Spider-Man or Deadpool)
•Leo can actually get really violent at times
•Backstory behind Leo’s name is that they had an old name when they were younger and hadn’t come out yet, but upon realizing they were trans, wanted to pick out a new name. Big Mama gave him a ton of resources and books and stuff to help with that process, but it was actually in an old book of Lou’s that had been left behind that Leo found the name “Leonardo” and went with that. It’s a really stupid coincidence, but it is what it is.
•The fact that Leo chose that name from one of Lou’s books is bittersweet for Big Mama. And kinda funny lol
•Mars and Leo have a rivalry that formed because of BM and Draxum.
•Super fond of Lou Jitsu movies, but can only ever watch them in secret
•Leo will sneak out to Hueso’s whenever he can because he feels like it’s the one place where he can relax and not have to hold up appearances
•Leo still knows Spanish in this au
•He’s still a very cocky showboat in this, just dial that up to 11.
•Mainly uses ōdachi or katanas to fight, however, Leo tends to just use whatever’s on hand in matches. Knows how to fight with a wide variety of weapons semi-professionally (and I say that loosely, Leo mostly just wings it)
•Able to use mystic powers and uses them well, but prefers not to when fighting.
•LOVES stage magic with a passion, and actually practices it in his spare time.
Tumblr media
Rento Jones
•Raised by the Foot
•She/he pronouns
•Goes by Ren for short
•Backstory for Rento is that little Cassandra was lonely and didn’t have anyone her age in the clan, and the Foot Lieutenant & Brute ended up finding this baby snapping turtle on a whim and gave him to her as a pet. Little did they know Cass just gained a new sister instead of a pet.
•Much more prone to violence than in canon (or at least to anger)
•The name Rento has a few meanings to it, but I mainly chose it because it started with an R and it fit. And was of Japanese origin.
•Cassandra is adamant about the two of them being siblings, and since Ren didn’t have a last name of her own, Cass shared hers
•Rento is still extremely soft on the inside, but is very afraid to show that side to people he doesn’t know.
•The entire Foot Clan will annihilate you if you hurt Rento in any way
•The clan is super fond of its spiky murder reptile!
•Ren doesn’t realize what she’s doing might be seen as “wrong”, he’s just focused on helping the Foot and being proud of that. Only ever hesitates when directly hurting innocent people or animals comes into the picture.
•Rento’s only issue is with hurting innocent people or creatures; she won’t hold back if something gets in his way.
•Cass and Ren have a habit of hyping each other up

@beeisblue Huginn and Muninn try to spoil Three when they can in their own pathetically middle of the road—thanks for trying way. But more often than not, they’re on babysitting duty to make sure Three doesn’t blow up his own lab—which can be pretty dangerous so they’d much rather keep their distance, but they do feel bad about not doing more to help. They’ll make a little appearance along with Shelldon in Donnie’s interlude, which is coming up next, after we conclude Mikey’s rescue arc!
That is definitely not sanctioned, but yes—Draxum is just too exhausted with Three’s antics at this point. The child used to be at least respectful out of fear, but it seems like ever since a few years back when Three hit some kind of mental, pain threshold, Draxum has had a hard time controlling and understanding his thought process.
The boys do change things up by way of casual clothes around the lair, just wearing whatever’s comfortable—pretty close to the show with Mikey and Donnie probably wearing more sweaters and joggers and hoodies than say Leo or Raph. As for missions I might change my mind if I can come up with something else fun for them to wear, but as for now…most of them change pretty quickly to their movie look as soon as they each unlock their ninpo. I’ve put Leo in 2012!Leo’s white vision quest hoodie until his finally moves on to his black and blue ninpo gear just because he’ll struggle with it the most so he’s kind of the only one who takes a while to switch over to his finale look. But I might throw them in something extra if I change my mind!
Tumblr media
@artoflittleowlbird Just a little song I made up! 😅 I really struggled with whether I wanted a real song or if I wanted to just make something from scratch. It’ll play a role later on so I hope I didn’t make it too weird sounding! I wanted it to have a non-rhyming feel like it’s something old which Splinter might’ve sung them.
Leo does meet Hueso eventually. He’s super polite when Raph, Mikey, and April first bring him to Run of the Mill, but there’s something so tired in his expression that Hueso can’t put his phalanges on. It makes the man wanna feed him, wrap him in a blanket and plop him on a comfy sofa where he can’t get hurt.
@sskurwysyn I’m sorry I’m so bad at this part. All the names I’m thinking of sound so stupid 🫣 If anyone else has one they’d like to suggest I’m all ears 🤣. And Mikey swapped out his nunchucks once or twice, but would always go back to them as soon as he could. I do like the idea of him wielding a comically huge kanabo like it’s nothing. Little man does not skip arm day.
Tumblr media
@little-banjo-frog Leo is a little too high up in the ranking for them to be close friends, but he has gone on missions with her as part of her training. She respects him much like she does Foot Lieutenant and Brute in the show, but once she really meets Raph, Mikey, and April and hears their story and connects the dots of their missing brother being Leo, her conscience takes over and she can’t help but see how screwed up Leo is from what Shredder’s done to him. BUT THAT’S OKAY—cause you can’t get any cooler than being a double agent!! She just needs to find the perfect time to get Leo to meet his brothers, and they can both leave the foot clan behind! Plus once she’d started sneaking out of the compound at night to play vigilante with Raph, she was done for—way too much fun! Good thing she’s so good at being quiet…be a shame if she were followed…..
Tumblr media
Aside from accidentally blowing up a Chee-Z ball factory in one of his first times out, Donnie’s gotten away with: taking apart half the tech in the lair and leaving the parts strewn all over for someone to trip on, snapping at his brothers and saying things even he knew at the time he’d regret saying, being an absolute shit to April when he first met her, testing a stimulant on himself and scaring the bejesus out of everyone when he had a tiny case of cardiac arrest…And probably the most glaringly obvious time Splinter was mad at him, but held his tongue—when Donnie needed the wiring in the projector tv and tore the whole thing apart so they were all left without any entertainment for two days while he built them a new one from scratch. Yes, they got something much nicer out of it, but he could’ve at least warned them! Raph thought Splinter’s fur was gonna be dyed perma-red from how much he looked like a tea kettle about to explode.
Tumblr media
Raph has to get a handle on Savage Raph pretty soon after Leo and Mikey get taken, just out of necessity, but he doesn’t get rid of the fear of being alone completely. Meeting April helps even more, but once they’re all back together it does become a bigger struggle for him to not panic when they leave his eye-line. It’s not even something that registers as an issue at first cause as long as one of them is with him, he can stay pretty calm, but eventually they do all have to split up for some reason or other, and he goes full Savage Raph for the first time in YEARS. It’s only top-side though, he’s fine being alone in the Hidden City and the sewers. April is always their best bet for calming him down though. They make a joke out of it later like maybe next time she should say something like “Sun’s going down big guy!” But it’s the simple fact that a part of Raph might be scared to lose his brothers again, but April has always been his biggest source of comfort and safety—she’s his big sister.
100% yes April and Raph can totally mind meld 🤣 i love it.

DONATELLO X READER "a Night Ride"
Relationship status: Romantic Reader prounouns: She/Her Words: 2739 TW: Slight angst (I guess? I'm not sure), Some grammatical errors because english is not my first language. Author's note: Yooo, this is my first time writing a oneshot in the last few years, i'm kinda proud of it, lmao. Anyway, enjoy.
.⋆。⋆˚。⋆。˚。⋆. .⋆。⋆˚。⋆。˚。⋆.
The pale moonlight slightly illuminated the sky above, much like New York itself, adding to the charm of the colorful lights that refused to fade despite the late hour of the night.
The Turtle Tank gracefully maneuvered through the uncrowded streets, its loud engine echoing around, serving as an unspoken warning to pedestrians to watch their step when crossing the road. Two people were inside the vehicle: Donatello, who else? He usually didn't allow his brothers to take the tank without him because he knew how chaotic they could be and how they might destroy everything in their path. The only exception was when April needed help with Mayhem, and as a reward, she offered pizza. That's when Raph took the Turtle Tank. He didn't cause much damage to the vehicle's body, so the purple genius spared him a strong reprimand. This time.
The other person was [Y.N], another human acquaintance of the turtles. Why was she there? And at this hour? Well...
"I can't believe I had to pick you up at this hour because some guy stood you up!" Yes, that was the reason. You see, [Y.N] had a date scheduled for tonight with a guy from her school, which was supposed to take place at a restaurant on the other side of New York. She wasn't a fan of such fancy outings, but the excitement of the meeting had gotten to her, and that's how it ended up. She had waited for a few hours for the no-show date instead of going straight to her apartment and crying into her pillow. At least then, she would have had a slight chance of catching a taxi and not having to call Donatello, who was clearly annoyed. Tough luck.
"I'm not a fan of such vocabulary, oh, who am I kidding? I am, so I'll say it: Didn't I tell you!?" The purple enthusiast began waving his hands during his monologue, trying to express his emotions somehow. Right, Donnie had warned the teenager, and not just once. If she had to say anything now, she'd confess it lasted a whole week.
"[Y.N], going on a date with such a normie won't end well," Soft-shell casually declared, appearing out of nowhere in the kitchen. Well, maybe not 'nowhere,' as it was their base's kitchen, so he had every right to be there - but no one expected the turtle to emerge from his workshop.
The teenager had a puzzled look as she nibbled on one of the sandwiches she and Leo had made for their movie night. "Why?" She didn't want to dismiss Donatello; she knew he genuinely cared about her and was trying his best to help despite his quirks, but this was already the fourth 'rational' argument this week! "He's not Dale, so nothing more annoying can happen!"
"Sorry, but I disagree," his robotic arms unfolded a whiteboard with potential threat assessments or risky behaviors. [Y.N]'s eyes flattened to read the small font; was that Helvetica? "According to my calculations, the chance that this guy is not suitable for you is precisely 76.43 percent. Of course, this number didn't come out of thin air. It's based on a series of algorithms and data analyses I conduct every day. I take into account factors like communication and conflict resolution skills, emotional availability, attachment style, and even past behaviors. It's quite a sophisticated model, if I may say so." The science enthusiast's proud smile said it all.
"Wow."
"My calculations are always reliable, sure, sometimes I make mistakes, but not in matters like these!" It wasn't entirely true. Matters of the heart weren't Donatello's strong suit, which often led to friction between him and his family. Heck, even Doctor Delicate Touch had to help him when Shelldon went through his rebellious phase! But when it came to someone as close as [Y.N]? He didn't want to be wrong.
The girl bit her cheek from the inside, tilting slightly to the side as the turtle turned left again. Her eyes occasionally tracked the new streetlamp, trying to gather her thoughts.
"Don't tell me you're showing her that board," a red-slider turtle peeked out from behind the whiteboard. "Yeah, you're showing her." His eyes didn't express surprise, more like indifference to his righteousness.
Donatello rolled his black eyes, tucking the presentation back into his battle shell as Leonardo sidestepped him gracefully, grabbing a plate full of sandwiches. His gaze settled on the teenager, who had her back turned to him and was slightly bent over.
"You were snacking, weren't you?" [Y.N] twitched slightly at her friend's keen observation. She slowly turned her head towards Leo, her smile seeming somewhat embarrassed.
"No?"
"Spots around your mouth from mustard say something else," Leonardo pointed out, pointing with his finger. The embarrassed teenager chuckled softly, feeling her posture slightly break.
"Okay, you caught me!" Despite being in despair, her voice also conveyed false drama. "But what can I do when you make such awesome sandwiches?? You guys live in the sewers, after all!" Donnie chuckled quietly to himself, knowing where his friend picked up these habits. It might not be a matter of great pride, but it made an impression. "Well, give me another one!" Before anyone could react, the girl practically lunged at Leo to reach the plate of food he had deliberately moved away from himself.
"Nuh-uh, because there won't be enough for the others." He easily comically pushed his friend away and headed towards the exit, winking at his brother in passing. Donatello rolled his eyes, knowing what was going on. He wasn't happy about it, but there was nothing he could do about his (not) twin's foolishness, or at least he didn't want a repeat of the last time he meddled in his brothers' affairs.
Finally, his dark eyes settled on the girl, who chuckled with a smile. She wanted to wipe her face with the sleeve of her hoodie, but the mechanical hand had her wrist in its grip. "Huh?"
"Didn't your mom teach you good manners?" Donnie approached her, taking a single sheet of paper towel from the red kitchen countertop nearby.
"I repeat, you guys live in the sewers, so what I wanted to do is the least of your worries." [Y.N] laughed, trying in vain to free her hand from the scientist's robotic grasp. "Can you let me go, Dr. Octopus?"
When she attempted to jerk her wrist again, Donatello began gently wiping her lips with the paper towel in a slow, deliberate motion, getting narrowed pupils in response. The boy didn't have the courage to look into her eyes, despite the brave activity he was currently engaged in, especially when his thumb lingered at the corner of her mouth for a second longer than it should have.
Once he finished wiping, he took the paper and stepped back slightly, realizing what he had done. When they both locked eyes, warmth flooded their cheeks, and the shock added to the turtle's expression. It was clear who was more in control of their emotions here, hm?
The boy coughed abruptly, averted his gaze, and straightened up - he didn't even notice when he had been slouching. "Living in the sewers doesn't compromise my hygiene," he commented a bit too loudly, feeling his voice crack with each word. "I'd say it's Leo who's more likely to." He chuckled slightly, and the girl joined in. "Well, anyway! Movie marathon coming up, so, see you in a few minutes??" Since when was he feeling so hot?? "See you!" He finally shouted, panicking and fleeing the kitchen.
[Y.N] chuckled with a smile, covering the lower part of her face.
[Y.N] sighed shakily, covering the lower part of her face.
"Oh, for Newton's sake, I feel like punching someone! ... Is this how Raph usually feels when he looks at us?" The red light appeared on the traffic signal, reflecting off the dark Turtle Tank's body. When the boy stopped the vehicle for a moment, he heard quiet sobbing. Confused, he looked to the side and saw [Y.N], who had started crying uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry."
The turtle's eyes widened. Her voice seemed to slowly shatter like transparent glass between each tear drop, and her posture was completely destroyed as she bent in half on the soft seat, completely covering her face.
Donatello glanced out of the corner of his eye at the front windshield, wanting to check if the light had changed - it was still red, so he immediately got up and approached the girl, squatting by the seat. He didn't handle his emotions well, especially someone else's, but he felt a pang in the depths of his heart that he wanted to get rid of. With a slight hesitation, he placed his three-fingered hand on her back, gently moving it up and down - Splinter, and then Raphael often did this to comfort the science enthusiast when he struggled with something.
"I should have listened to you," the teenager began, "It was a mistake to hope for a good time with that person." The boy felt terrible. Yes, he had wanted to help her understand her mistake at the time, but he still hoped that despite his unpredictable intellect, he was wrong. "God, I just want to hide in my room and never come out."
"Don't apologize, it's not your fault." Her eyes peeked out from behind her fingers. Donnie's eyebrows furrowed seeing [Y.N]'s bloodshot and red eyes. "Who would have thought he wouldn't show up after all?"
"You," she sighed heavily, straightening up. Her expression conveyed sorrow. "Your calculations turned out somewhat effective."
Donatello looked at her with empathy, trying to find the right words that could comfort her. He gently raised his hand and lightly tapped her shoulder, trying to convey support.
"Science... doesn't always get it right." [Y.N]'s eyes widened at his words. Why did he think that way? Science was practically one of Donnie's defining characteristics, it was unthinkable. Sure, Leo or Mikey might say that, but not him, not her genius acquaintance who would want to rule the world! [Y.N] was now certain that something was going on deep within him.
"What are you saying?" Her voice wasn't supposed to sound less casual, slightly mocking, but she couldn't help it. "Science doesn't get it right? That's so... illogical of you!"
Her eyes met his dark ones again, expressing strong uncertainty and... enchantment, quite enchantment. His face was perfectly illuminated by the city lights, causing a slight blush of astonishment on the teenager's face.
"Science doesn't always have it right," he repeated and stood upright. His fists were tightly clenched, and his posture was rigid. "And I'll prove it to you."
"How?"
His mouth opened for a second, but he closed it again, momentarily struggling with whether to confess one thing, but now there was no turning back, he had to do it. 'Calm down, Donatello, calm down...'
"When I calculated our 'compatibility,' the result came out excessively negative..." he began, trying with all his might not to take his eyes off the young girl. He didn't want his friend to think he was weird! Although, could there be anything weirder than a teenage mutant ninja turtle with a high IQ? "But... but I feel something else."
'Wait, he calculated our compatibility?' [Y.N] repeated in her thoughts, trying to understand the meaning of those words as quickly as possible. Compatibility. Compatibility... the teenager's blush deepened. 'Is he into me...?!'
She was snapped out of her thoughts by a touch. She felt the boy grab her hands in his, gently squeezing them.
"Numbers don't make sense in this situation," he began. "So... will you go on a date with me?" His voice seemed uncertain, not in terms of his words but about himself. As mentioned earlier, he was a mutated ninja turtle; what chance did he have? But for some time now, he couldn't resist the growing feelings for [Y.N], who, as one of the few, had gotten close to him and understood him. He knew how annoying he could be with his habits, strong sarcasm, or introverted nature, but it didn't bother her, at least most of the time, and he really appreciated that.
The silence stretched on infinitely, causing even greater nervousness on Donatello's part.
"... I've only just been dumped by one guy."
"Oh, right!" Donnie looked startled, like a deer in headlights. Yes, what an idiot! He should have thought this through, or at least used less direct words! How does it look now? "I'm sorry, this was inappropriate; we can forg--!"
"But I'll go." Another silence.
"..."
"..."
"What?"
"Well, you know, let's wait a week for today's emotions to settle," she smoothly took his wrists in her hands. Her smile, despite the slight nervousness of the situation, radiated a pleasant feeling, full of strange comfort, as if not judging him at all. "But after that, I'd be happy to go on a date with you."
Donatello seemed... disconnected. A million thoughts swirled in his mind. Was this real?
"Donnie?" He blinked a few times and looked at the person in front of him again. After a brief moment, he smiled, tilting his head slightly.
"Thanks." That's all he said, and the traffic light turned green. Without waiting, he took the driver's seat and drove on.
"So, on our date, maybe we can watch something? Like... Oppeinhamer?"
"Oh, you know me so well!"
Bonus:
"I'm in position, Tails," the nonchalant voice of the red-slider turtle was audible through a small communication device. [Y.N] chuckled softly, watching out of the corner of her eye as Donatello, with a grimace on his face, sat down next to her on the edge of the residential building's roof.
"My code name is 'Shadow,' Leo!" The turtle sighed heavily, furrowing his brows. "And no, it's not a reference to Sonic!"
"You can't fool me," Leonardo laughed, leaning out from behind the building's wall, sticking his tongue out in the same direction where the pair is.
"Be quiet, Bluey," this time [Y.N] spoke up, bringing the communicator closer to her lips. Seeing the gloomy expression on Leo's face instead of his usual smile, the pair burst into mocking giggles.
"Yeah, yeah, keep making fun of the fact that I watched that show at 3 in the morning." The teenager muttered quietly, resting his weapon on his shoulder. "If you couldn't sleep, you'd watch it too!"
Donatello rolled his eyes, accompanied by his rare smile, and discreetly took the girl's hand. Meanwhile, [Y.N] gently rested her head on his shoulder, giggling again.
"Wasn't your code name 'Purple Knight' by any chance?" She asked, lightly moving her feet.
"It was, but you know, most changes are good, and I'm getting older, so it's natural that I change my nickname~."
The girl raised one eyebrow slightly, adjusting her position a bit to look at Donnie. He met her gaze, which weakened after a moment, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his forehead.
"FINE, maybe it is a reference to Sonic!" He declared loudly, gesturing. "I've been catching up on Sonic Prime lately; you can't blame me!"
[Y.N] burst into laughter, hugging the boy. For the first few seconds, his body stiffened, but after a while, he put his arm around her. However, out of the corner of his eye, Donatello noticed someone walking on the sidewalk.
"It is Shadow. Bluey, stay alert, the target is approaching," he said through the headset, putting on his special goggles.
"Mhm."
The target was the same boy who had stood [Y.N] up a few weeks earlier on the day of their almost date. Yes, it was Donatello's idea, wanting to seek revenge for his almost-partner.
"Now, Bluey!"
Leonardo leaped out from behind the wall, right in front of the unsuspecting boy who needed a few seconds to grasp the situation.
"Hey, buddy, how's life treating you?" The turtle asked with a malicious grin.
"A talking turtle?!"
"One who happens to be an awesome ninja!" He chuckled, swinging his sword. After a brief moment, a bright blue portal appeared beneath the teenager.
His scream lasted only a nanosecond as he disappeared into the blue void, eliciting laughter from Leonardo. "Have a nice trip to New Jersey~!"

@normal-sea-urchin
You know the 2012 team isn't just going to accept whatever just happened. So some alternate Donnie has Mikey's soul or whatever? Okay. They'll just have to go there, find it, and take him back.
Donnie would have no idea what they're talking about apart from some hazy dream he can't recall after spending weeks rebuilding Shelldon. All he knows is they're trying to kidnap his son.
Shelldon is just kind of off to the side not sure what to do. He doesn't want to leave, but he also doesn't want the others hurt for some reason. Everything's so confusing. Can't they just talk about this?
The other rise turtles have to break up the fight because
A. They have no idea what going on and need information
B. It's getting ugly. Donnie bit the other Raph. Donnie don't you dare lock your jaw!
So now they're being kept separated by Rise Raph, but Donnie is holding Shelldon like he has magnets in his hands. The 12 turtles are not happy about this.
Rise turtles hearing about Donnie stealing the other Mikey's soul. Leo was wrong apparently. It's not demon possession, Donnie is the demon. Stop hissing Donnie, you're not helping your case.
Donnie doesn’t care if Shelldon’s soul is their Mikey. He’s his son now and he can’t just let him go with them! He lost Shelldon once and worked too hard to get him back. Including apparently reaching out to an alternate dimension afterlife/purgatory to get his soul back while sleeping. Which left him feeling exhausted for weeks by the way.
Dr. Feelings is going to have a field day with this, Mikey just knows it. Including making sure they all know that what really matters is Shelldon's feelings and what he wants.
They seem nice and all, but Shelldon didn't know them anymore. They're welcome to visit, but he's perfectly happy here. Arrangements can be changed as their situation does.
The only plus side for the 12 turtles is that at least Mikey… Shelldon is happy here and being well taken care of. It sucks and they’re not happy but Dr Feelings is right. This is about Shelldon, not them. It’s really weird to think that he considers another much more chaotic version of Donnie to be his father. 12 Splinter takes a while to get over it.
And Shelldon does care, even if it's not the same. Doesn't mind spending time with them in hopes of helping them feel better. Though Donnie is usually close by or watching through cameras. Doesn't trust them alone with Shelldon for a second.
They can’t help but think of course Shelldon cares. Even with no memories, he’s still their Mikey in a way. Mikey was always the one who showed he cared the most. He cared about his brothers, about strangers, about everyone. It's nice to see that carried in even now.
They try to hug Shelldon. Even with the artificial warmth everything is too smooth with too many angles. It just doesn't feel like Mikey.
Shelldon introduced other Leo to Jupiter Jim because he likes space shows so he might like this one. Leo was too distracted to watch it because no one told Shelldon about Leo liking Space heroes, so how did he know that?
Shelldon does remember some things about before. It feels less like his own memories though, more like watching a movie and connecting with the main character.

Hi! Can i request a headcannon for rottmnt where the guys find out their s/o is a huge fan of horror & mystery. Like for example buzzfeed unsolved and movies like the conjuring and/or it? Thank you!
Neon Leon
Leo’s a huge horror skeptic
“Psh, ghosts aren’t real! It’s probably just the wind.”
Which means for the most part, he isn’t afraid to watch horror movies or read scary stories
Which is great for you!
He won’t object to watching them
But
He also, well, a huge-
H u g e
Critic
“That isn’t even possible!”
“How did he catch up to them, he was walking!”
It can get to be a bit much
If you’re fine with that, cool!
Critique with him, you two will end up laughing at most of the movies and stories
(Mikey walks by and sees you two laughing at the scariest thing he’s seen and is convinced you two are possessed-)
If you’re not okay with that, just let him know!
He won’t take offense
Realizes his critiquing can take away from the horror atmosphere
He’ll tone it down and instead opt to laugh quietly at some scenes
Is absolutely down to lay down with you and scroll through some buzzfeed unsolved articles
“Maybe I’ll end up on there one day! I’ll be famous, baby! Just make sure they put the best photo of me.”
Leo no
He does get a bit freaked out with horror movies based on real events
Tries to laugh it off
“C’mon, it can’t actually be real.”
He’ll manage to keep up his unphased image at first
But the second the scary scenes come on, he’s clinging to you
Will try to play it off
“I just thought maybe you were scared- ahaha…ha…”
You’re not fooling anyone Leo.
Please give him a hug.
Don Tron
One word
✨Theories✨
He loves to theorize about the paranormal and such
Will share his theories with you
“BUT WHAT IF THERE WAS NO GHOST ALL ALONG??? WHAT IF IT WAS- A DREAM?!”
D o n n i e
He’s so excited to share his theories with you, especially since you listen
You two regularly have a horror movie/reading binge at least once a week
It’s one of y’all’s favorite thing to do
You’ll both curl up with some pillows and blankets
Snacks and drinks within arms reach
The highest quality screens he has
And ofc he has note pads by him
If you also love theorizing, he sets up a space in his lab for you two to record your theories
Y’all probably have a podcast or YouTube channel
And you both wear hoodies with horror puns and references on them.
He still gets scared and will knock over a bowl of popcorn or too-
But don’t worry, Shelldon helps y’all clean it up
Speaking of Shelldon-
He joins y’all every now and then
His fans whirs loudly when he gets scared but he’ll deny it.
Donnie sometimes grabs your hand when he gets really scared
Just hold his hand and tell him it’s alright- you’ll throw hands with any monster
“You can’t hit a ghost-“
“Watch me.”
Mystic Mike
Mikey likes watching horror movies every now and then
But can he handle horror???
N o
It’s okay, he’ll still try to be brave with you
“With my s/o with me, there’s no monster we can’t beat!”
Two seconds later he’s popped into his shell
Just pick him up and put him in your lap
Scratch his shell gently and he’ll pop back out after a moment
Mikey definitely clings to you during movies, and keeps a blanket wrapped around you both.
He does much better with reading horror
Loves to read buzzfeed unsolved with you
“Hey wait a minute- I’ve seen that guy!”
“W h a t?!”
He’s definitely seen one or two ‘missing’ people
Usually they’ve just been mutated
If you want, he’ll introduce you to them!
You two usually curl up on his bed and read horror stories together
He even gets a few scary scrolls and books from the Hidden City library for you two to enjoy
More often than not, they’re mainly illustrated- like a comic book.
Mystic horror books are on a whole different level
Sometimes the books come alive and try to eat y’all
Other times, they sort of work like a mystic 3D hologram-
Using magic to show the events of the story happening around you
You two get so invested that you both shriek when the monster suddenly appears in front of you both
10/10 for practically being in the stories yourself
Big Red
Oh sweet, sweet Raph…
He can’t handle anything horror to save his life
He’ll try to tough out watching a movie or two for you
But he always ends up shrieking and nearly breaking your tv- or his dads projector
(Okay, he has broken his dads projector repeatedly)
He thinks you’re the bravest person ever for enjoying horror
If you want him to watch a movie with you, you’ll usually have to coax him into it
Make the couch super comfy and cozy- with his favorite blankets and pillows
You’ll have to keep a light on- or get fairy lights
He’ll sit with you in his lap, with his arms around you
This way he can hold onto you when he gets scared
(Also so he can hide behind you)
He’ll be so happy if you get him some noise cancelling headphones
The movie will still scare him, but he’ll be able to handle it a bit better.
If you’re reading some buzzfeed unsolved or horror stories,
He’ll gladly sit next to you with a book of his own, or his phone
While he won’t read it with you, he’s more than glad to spend time with you
You both get to enjoy time together while doing what y’all like
He usually falls asleep with his head in your lap while you scroll through buzzfeed unsolved, or watch movies on your phone with your headphones in.
He may feel a bit guilty over not being able to enjoy horror with you
So he gets you a poster of your favorite movie
Or asks Splinter if he knows one of your favorite horror actors so he could get a signature for you
“I uh- know ya really love scary stuff, so I got ya a signature from that one actor you like!”
Sweet boi
He’s trying.
Tumblr media
Thanks for requesting, I hope you liked it!!
This was pretty fun to write ^^

alpha stage takes place after the end of season 2 and the movie, right? did donnie ever rebuild shelldon if so? cause if he did, at least dee's got someone else (other than his brothers) to help him reach things that are now too tall for him lol
(Loredump)
Donnie has indeed been working on him since the movie. S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. 's body is still WIP, but his hard drive/backups are all stored in Dee's mainframe computer. He hasn't reactivated him yet, since he's waiting to have S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. 's body fully operarional before doing so...
But, as I've said before: Experienced/Older Brain + Younger Body = Chemical/Hormonal Imbalances = a lot of emotional issues.
So sometimes, Dee might reactivate Shelldon on his computer just to talk and get away from his brothers when overwhelmed.
Right now, Dee's too busy trying to revert the agent, but if he gets the chance, he'll work on Shelldon too. Might be helpful, especially in battles :)

Leo is starting a stream, his model is dressed in black skinny jeans, a white shirt with a Trans Colored Unicorn decal, blue zip up hoodie, blue sneakers, and long blond blue streaked hair in a pony tail. His model is sitting on an inflatable chair. River is 'swimming' around, but will swim up to deliver messages.
Leo: Okay, so before we begin I want to go over two important points.
The chat is excited, and going a bit nuts, though many are just saying Hi to Leo and River.
Leo: So I want to bring up that, well the only reason I was avoiding saying I am Trans, is because I was hit with the memories of the various side effects the trial medicine had on me, and boy was some of that just embarrassing.
His model is dramatically slumped with an arm over his eyes.
River: According to Shelldon there was alot of odd side effects for what the medicine was made to do!
Leo: I broke out in a rash, or hives more than I would like, and I'm not actually allergic to anything! Not to mention the one that for some reason knocked me out for half a day... or was I just Stupidly tired that day?
Leo looks puzzled trying to remember the details properly.
Leo: Either way it was an awful experience, but hey we got it right quick enough!
Chat is once again going nuts, a lot of it congratulatory, and happy emojis. Though there are some questioning how effective the final results were.
Leo: One last thing before I start playing this Jupiter Jim game we found, we forgot that the Letters were a placeholder until we thought up stage names, and well unless you agree with me calling myself Dr. BlueNeon or Dr. NeonBlue, or just toss the doctor part, I and my brothers D & M are welcome to suggestions.
Chat is going a bit nuts.
River: They want to know why you didn't ask suggestions for Red?
Leo: Red is Red Angel, we agreed on that before starting, and he hasn't streamed just yet because the model rigging is having a hard time mapping his movements.
River: Red is big! And the rig keeps identifying his elbow as the wrist. It's still being adjusted as we speak.
Leo: Well, with that out of the way, Let the Space Exploration Begin!
River: Or at least that's what we think this game is supposed to be.
The stream going on with chat watching Leo struggle to figure out how the mechanics are supposed to work, and being to stubborn to ask Donnie for help.

Hellooo the raph hcs were so cute aaaAAA could I request general hcs on how the rottmnt turts wrap presents? Like who would be great/bad and who would put a bow/ribbon and things like that :] thank you!!
AAaa of course!
~~~~~~~~~~~ Rottmnt Gift wrap ~~~~~~~~~~
Tumblr media
Leo:
He probably wouldn’t be the best at it. Like he thinks he is, but he’s not.
Buys either the flashiest wrapping paper or glittery present bags
Or just steals borrows some from his brothers
To mess with people, he’d probably wrap them in an entirely different shape or try to disguise it as something else
Like one year, he gave Mikey a set of oil pastels, but wrapped it as a bird statue
covers it in glitter if he does wrap it.
Donnie almost murdered him over it…..there was glitter in his lab for months
Would probably use those graphic tapes
Tumblr media
Raph:
He’s probably the worst at it….but he’s really sorry about it.
there’s be a few taped up rips in the paper because of his claws
his giant hands make it hard to wrap things delicately or nicely
Definitely goes through at least 2 rolls of wrapping paper
His wrapping paper would probably look like this
Either has Mikey help with bows or buys them premade
Also like Leo, he’d probably have his gifts look like an entirely different thing or shape. By accident though
Refuses to use bags unless he absolutely needs to
Tumblr media
Mikey:
One of the best in the family
He’d either hand make the wrapping paper or get something like this
Ribbons, bows, galore
Depends on the person, but they’d probably stay the shape of the gift or box
He’ll make gift boxes….like origami it
He’d probably also cover them in stickers
Those graphic tapes like Leo, too
also uses glitter…but not on the same scale
Raph will sometimes ask him for help….only once he gave up though
Tumblr media
Donnie:
he’s probably the best at it
Perfectionist
He’d either buy purple wrapping paper or buy wrapping paper that fits everyone
His gifts will always be box shaped. Pressed neatly to fit perfectly around it
with his battle shell’s arms, he’s able to do almost everything at once
Snip the paper, press it, tape it down and bow all in the span of a couple of minutes or less
Depends on how much time he has, because if he has no time - no bow, it just wastes valuable tech time or Shelldon time…..yes time - he’ll put a purple bow on it
His goggles probably help with dimensions
he’s probably given Leo an empty box before giving him his actual present
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I made this a bit Christmas themed with the wrapping paper because it’s so close to the holidays and stuff. Hope you like it anon!

I have never done this before, so forgive me if I do this wrong. But I was wondering what Leo would do after his brothers are gone? Like, you mention there's a lot of depression and stuff happening if he doesn't get better, would he spiral into insanity, would he go back tk the prison dimension if he could like Prime said, would he maybe just constantly off himself as soon as he woke from his "death"? Or would he come to terms with his immortality now and watch over the descendents of his family like a guardian angel? Your au is amazing, and your answers to everyone's questions paints so much to your story!
[ cw: death mention / suicide mention (doesn’t happen tho!!) ]
(I’m happy you enjoy my AU! And no worries, you did nothing wrong!)
After his immediate family is all gone, things go in one of two ways.
The first one is Path B, where Leo goes off with SHELLDON and the semi present spirit puff balls of his family to various dimensions, just going around and seeing the sights, helping people out and trying to find a “cure” for his “affliction.” This path is open ended so whether he’s successful or not is up to anyone.
The second is Path C, and this is the “Bad End.” He tries to make the most of his time on Earth, hanging out with his longer living or younger friends and distant family members, but eventually…[insert massive plot point here.] He does in fact try to get back to Krang, more than once, because he’s the only one Leo has left that really knows Leo. When Leo tells Krang One this, the alien laughs. This path “ends” with [insert massive plot point here] happening in totality. At least Leo isn’t super aware anymore at that point…

can I request found-family teen!with the turtles? or future leonardo?(angst angst-)
Out of Harm's Way
Tumblr media
f!Raph + gn!reader
Warnings: mention of death, injuries, tending to injuries, angst, platonic fluff, swearing
A/N: Who doesn't love angst? This takes place in 2030. Mikey is 25, the twins are 26, Raph is 27. Reader is around 7 and it's unspecified if reader is human, mutant, or yo'kai (meaning born right after the Kraang invasion started). I chose Raph because I feel he doesn't get enough love. :) Raph renames you because I hate using y/n.

Your breath was heavy as you tried to run across what looked like a battle field. Ruins of buildings before your time looked pushed aside to make the large clearing. Thankfully, there was no fighting going on at the moment.
You had been at a colony around Newark, but it had been attacked. You fled with a few others in the colony, hoping to make it to the one in the city. But now you were alone. Kraang dogs attacked and you got separated. You were most likely the only one that made it.
Tired, you collapsed. You didn't know where the entrance to the colony was, you just had to hope someone would find you. All you could do is curl up and cry.
˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆。❤️ 。⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗
"There's something outside." Raphael points to the form on the ground.
"Let me see." Donatello pushes Raph away from the security screen. "Shelldon, scan it."
The A.I. took a moment to scan the form. "It's a child."
"Alone? Are you sure?" Donnie asks.
"Do I look like something that would make a mistake?" Shelldon sighs.
"Are they Kraang-ified?" Raph presses.
"They seem to be clear." Shelldon replies.
"We should go out and help them." Raph turns and goes towards the gate.
˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆。❤️ 。⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗
You hear something open, immediately jumping up to run. You look around wildly, trying to find out which way isn't safe, when you spot a big turtle man in red.
"It's alright, just breathe, okay?" He crouched and held his and out to you. "My name is Raphael. I'm here to take you somewhere safe, okay?"
You nod and race to him. He caught you, picking you up gently and walking towards a hole in the ground. Once inside, it slid closed. You 2 went through a few more doorways, all locking behind you, before you saw lights and heard people. Raphael walked away from it, towards a quieter area.
"You'll be safe here." He gently sets you on a bed. You look around seeing medical equipment. You start to panic a little. "It's okay, it's okay. We just want to make sure you're not hurt."
"Raph!" A blue clad turtle comes running in. "Why the hell did you go outside? There wasn't a threat!" Instead of answering, Raphael stepped aside. Blue looked at you, surprised. "Are they alright?"
"That's what we're gonna see." A purple one pushed Blue aside. He had giggles on and played with something on his wrist. He brought over a small med kit, rolling over on a stool.
"These are 2 of my brothers. Leo," Raph motions to Blue. "And Donnie."
"Where did you come from?" Donnie asks, patching up a few cuts on your arms and legs.
"Newark." You squeak as Donnie applies alcohol.
"That's over 300 miles." Leo comes closer. "You came by yourself? Did you walk all the way here?"
"Newark fell..." You look at your hands. "I wasn't alone... until..."
Tears began falling. You hadn't been able to fully come to terms with what happened, constantly on edge. Constantly aware of everything around you, just trying to survive.
"Shh, please don't cry." Raphael places a hand on your shoulder. "You're safe here now. I'm sure they'd be happy to know that."
"What's your name?" Donnie asks, handing you a sandwich and water. You shrugged. "You don't have one?"
"It wasn't very important... I guess Kid." You sniff.
"That's a terrible name." Raphael groans. "I'll come up with something for you or you can pick your own."
˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆。❤️ 。⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗
"Their vitals are normal for someone who hasn't had food and water in at least 3 days..." Donnie sighs, leaning back in his chair.
"No offense, I know it's a kid," Leo began. "Are we sure they're not a threat?"
"They're not Kraang-ified if that's what you're asking." Donnie answers, spinning to face his twin.
"Look, Shelldon told us Newark was attacked, their story lines up. Plus they look to be around 7 years old, they probably can't answer many of the questions you have." Raph points out.
"As much as I hate to say it, Raph does have a point." Donnie twirls a pen in his fingers. "What they need is rest and nutrition. They'll probably have some trauma, we can deal with that as it comes."
"I can't imagine what they went through out there..." Raph closes his eyes in pain.
"I'm just wondering how a child can get through 3 days out there alone." Leo frowns. "Just keep your eyes open."
˗ˏˋ ꒰ ⋆。❤️ 。⋆꒱ ˎˊ˗
Night after night, you had nightmares. You didn't want to bother the turtles, but you weren't sleeping. One night you finally decided to sneak to Raphael's room.
"Hey... Are you okay?" Raph sits up, placing his hand on your face reassuringly.
"C-can you... hold me for a while?" You mumbled.
"Of course." He laid back down, lifting his arm so you could snuggle underneath.
Raph was a comforting being in your messed up world. After that first night, you 2 became inseparable.
Raphael spent a lot of time with you, coming up with names, and just taking care of you. You both went through color names, Renaissance names, nothing seemed to fit.
"I think I got it." Raphael sits on the edge of your bed. You crawl into his lap, he was much to big for your bed. "What about Phoenix?"
"Phoenix?" You ask.
"Yeah... They're mythical birds that burn up and rise out of their ashes..." Raph shruggs. "I think... But that's what you've done. You are healthy and safe now."
You don't say anything. You wanted to think about it, maybe hear others say it.
"Or... We could look more." Raphael quickly says. He worried he might have upset you.
"I like it." You hug him. He wraps his arms around you, standing up to reintroduce you to his family. He walks into the dinning room where they're all sitting.
"This is Phoenix." Raphael smiles, he sets you on the ground.
"Oh mi gosh, that's perfect!" Mikey beams.
"It's nice to meet you, Phoenix." Splinter hugs you. The others also greet you, using your new name. You turn to look at Raphael, grinning.

They walked until they came upon a burbling stream, at which April called for a quick break to wash their hands and faces, and to treat wounds. Many of them were glad for the rest, though none more so than Leo, who had been noticeably flagging for the last mile.
Despite Leo’s pallor, April inspected Raph’s wound first. She pressed around the edges of the cuts with her fingers and peered into his eye. Finally, she stepped back, relief slumping her shoulders.
“Good luck! You’re not Infected.” A line of tension left the remaining three who had seen battle before. “And besides that, your eye is unharmed. I still have some Athelas left. Once some water is boiled, we can steep it, and then I can clean your wound.”
Raph raised a hand and rested it on April’s shoulder. “Thank you, April.” His voice wavered even as he smiled. Before anyone could say anything else, Mikey threw himself into Raph’s arms.
April then moved on to Leo, who was already being helped out of his jacket by Donnie.
“Lemme guess- shirt off?” Leo asked, voice strained. His hands moved down the buttons quickly, though when the shirt was pulled away, there was still another layer underneath.
“Woah.” A gasp of amazement left April when she realized what she was looking at. “Ha! Hey, guys! Check this out!”
“I didn’t know Hobbit turtles had mithril shells,” Huesito joked, though he too had a look of wonder in his eye.
Shelldon came over for a closer look as Leo pulled his last layer off over his head. “Is that the mithril-coat gifted to your father that Karai spoke of? If so, she undervalued it.”
“Yeah, and Donnie and Mikey get to fight over it once I don’t have a target on my shell,” Leo joked, flippant in the face of everyone’s awe. Then he looked down at his torso and frowned. “Oh, that’s not good.”
Tumblr media
The lower left quarter of his plastron had a large crack in it, which sluggishly weeped blood. Around the crack were deep scores where the mithril rings had been driven into the hard surface and dragged as the troll’s spear slipped to the side instead of crushing him. The entire area was discolored, a deeper red-brown.
When April looked around, she saw a look in the Hobbits’ faces she had only seen once before: fear, yes, but also uncertainty and defensiveness. She’d seen that look when they’d refused to try crossing Caradhras, and to see it now meant… that they expected her to treat this wound with less seriousness than it deserved. She refused to earn that look.
“I’ll wash that with Athelas, too. Will a regular bandage suffice until we get to Lothlorien? The Yokai there are skilled healers. Or is there something else I can do now?”
The Hobbits relax, at least, though they still stare at Leo’s wound with something akin to dread.
“Yeah, that’s fine,” Donnie assures. “We don’t have the materials or conditions to do anything better.”
“I’m carrying you until we get there,” Raph tells Leo, a warning not to argue in his voice.
Leo doesn’t protest.
(33/?)
