How they met you Bayverse TMNT
Tumblr media
A/N: I kind of felt like writing something with the turtles again. :3 In my private time I have written a lot about them (especially about Donnie) and I could publish my stuff here :D (Picture from Pinterest!)
Warnings: Mention of weapons and violence
Part 2
__________________________________________
Leonardo (Strangers to Lovers):
On the night patrol, Leo had decided to split up a bit
On the roofs, he looked closely at the streets and alleys to ensure the safety of the city
At a traffic light, Leo saw you
You were standing next to an older lady and you were chatting with her as you helped her across the street
Your smile was gentle and loving as the older woman laughed with joy
Leo looked at the scenario for a while before you and the older woman walked across the street
When you were on the other side, you waved to the older lady and then continued on your way
Leo briefly looked after the older woman before following you over the rooftops
He followed you until you were at your apartment and put some food out for the street cats
With such a simple action you had Leo's full attention and he was happy that there were still people like you
He made it his own mission to take care of you
Raphael (Cinnamon roll and Guard dog):
Raphael spotted you while he was on patrol
You were backed into a corner and threatened with a gun. The thief wanted your valuables and all your money
Raphael immediately intervened by throwing his sai so that the weapon was knocked away by the thief
Then he grabbed a few bricks and threw them down to knock out the thief
The thief ran away while you still stared up to see your savior
Raph saw a dark corner where you couldn't see him and he jumped into it
"Give me back my weapons."
You had thrown them into the shadows as you silently looked in his direction
You thanked him several times before you stood up and tried to walk towards him, but Raph immediately growled loudly, making you jump back
"Can I meet you again?" you asked him
Raph just huffed before climbing up and leaving you alone
Donatello (Sexy sassy and timid nerd):
Donnie sometimes sneaked into famous universities (without Leo knowing) to see what it was like at a public university
He also saw you quite often during class
Donnie found you very interesting, even though you never really listened, didn't take notes, and never participated in class, you got good grades and got through every class
You were quite popular, with the boys and girls, but you had rejected everyone
One day Donnie had put his number in your bag, hoping he could get to know you better
He knew it was risky, but he wanted to try it. His brothers simply weren't allowed to know
Of course you found his number and called him immediately, but it was a video call
Donnie had always taped up his cameras, but it still scared him. Then he answered
You talked for a while and he had to spend a really long time proving that he didn't go to your university but was homeschooled
You had a good time and even became friends
Donnie found himself admiring you as you still had your camera on and sometimes smiled into it
Michelangelo (Aggressive chihuahua and calm giant):
Mikey had spotted you when it was Halloween and everyone was out celebrating
He snuck out and tried his luck at talking to you. He always got along well with his looks, including you
You had put on the Hogwarts uniform and even had a wand
Mikey complimented you and you had a very long conversation, which you both enjoyed
You told him that his costume looked incredibly realistic, to which he could only giggle nervously
"I've been working on it all year, little one."
His little nicknames for you always made you giggle and his heart fluttered every time he heard it
But when Mikey was whistled back by Leo, he staggered towards you in disappointment before disappearing into the crowd so that no one noticed him anymore
You were disappointed that he had to leave, just like Mikey was disappointed to leave
Since then, you came to the place where you met every day and Mikey saw you there all the time
But Leo had forbidden him to talk to you

What if the turtles were in the pokemon world? And what if they were never turtles, but in fact, mutated pokemon? What if they lived in the Castelia sewers of Unova instead of New York?
Meet my Rise/Pokemon AU!! Waaaah this has been on my mind for MONTHS now. Pokemon is that one fixation that'll never leave me. I'm THAT pokemon fan that knows WAAAAY too much about the games and lore. For those that don't know,
Raph is Drednaw
Leo is Wartortle
Mikey is Torkoal
Donnie is Lapras
Yes. They are all shiny. I started with raph, since him as drednaw is pretty much a no brainer. The shiny form fit too well with him and his color scheme. Than I realized if I made him shiny, I had to make the other bros shiny as well so THEY ALL SHINY. (draxum shiny hunter confirmed?) Also dual rock typing fits well with raph's character.
Wartortle for leo was also a pretty obvious choice. I MEAN LOOK AT HIM. Long flowy tail? Yes please. I had to keep his markings somehow. Wartortle has little dark cheek spots, so I just changed them to be leo's markings. Water typing leo. Go with the flow, think on the spot, it worked out too well.
Torkoal for Mikey was another easy one. Fire turtle? Passionate, warm, also DANGEROUS (he can be a menace ok) Say no more. His powers in rise are already pyro related. Also having him shiny helped a lot with the color scheme. Torkoal is normally orange so having mikey be the yellow shiny form meant I didn't have to mess with his mask colors
Donnie on the other hand....OHHH BOI I STRUGGLED WITH YOU. I went through 4 DIFFERENT POKEMON, before deciding on the least turtle like of them all. I am aware that we do have a softshell pokemon with enamorous, but it's a legendary so thats not happening. But it was really important for me to keep donnie's soft shell and battle shell. I wanted this to be a RISE au and donnie's battle shell is pretty tied into his character. (there's also tirtouga which I almost went with, but I didn't like that both he and raph shared the exact same dual typing) Soooo, Lapras. Its more of a loch ness monster but it also draws inspiration from a placochelys (prehistoric seaturtle esque species) so IM COUNTING IT. Very unconventional but I have my reasons. Ice typing is a good offensive type, but is pretty bad defensively. Which ties into rise donnie's fighting style. If I wasn't a coward, I wouldve made donnie the biggest of the bros. Since lapras is like 8 feet tall compared to the others being like 1-3 feet. But uhhh, I swear I have an in universe explanation for why he's so small ok.
And than there's April. She is not a pokemon trainer in this au. At least not in the traditional sense. I've been with pokemon for all of my 26 years of life, and I always wanted to know what the normal people of the pokemon world are up to. Not everyone is out here collecting gym badges, travelling, or catching them all. How do non-trainers interact with the pokemon world? So that's where I'm at with April. She will get a pokemon partner, but other than that, she's just an average high schooler who befriended the turtles from a young age and takes part in all their shenanigans. I took some design elements from rosa and hilbert with her outfit, but otherwise its pretty much the same.
We'll see how far I'll take this. I've been using this as a break from my many other projects, but like everything I do, it grew too many legs and is slowly becoming its own thing.

Summary of Cartoon Base's Q&A with Ron Corcillo
(Feb 10, 2024)
This is VERY long, so putting it under the cut!
Apocalyptic Future
We don't know how Donnie and Raph died specifically, but it was in combat against the Krang.
The turtles were leaders of the resistance and obviously went through some serious trauma. We don't really know how that affected them emotionally. It might be interesting to do a series that explored that timeline at some point.
Leo was the best ninja fighter. Once Raph and Donnie were gone, he was also the leader of the resistance. He also had a special affinity for Casey. He may have felt particularly responsible for Casey once his mother was gone.
Mikey probably could have communicated with Raph/Donnie/Splinter in the same way they could communicate with Karai, even though we didn't get the chance to see it.
The turtles wouldn't have had time for having their own kids or starting families. They were too busy fighting the krang, and the world was too dangerous for raising children.
They couldn't work out everyone's timelines in the bad future, but presumably, Big Mama's assistant would have joined the resistance, because what else could you do? She would have to have adopted her brothers as allies.
Mikey is definitely less cheerful and more wise, but he still ultimately has faith in the goodness of people and the world. Some things, you just can't change.
The turtles are in their early 40's, but the war has taken a toll.
Characters
Splinter spent a lot of time in the Hidden City, so he knows about more mystic things than we realize. He's developed those skills (i.e. using Leo's odachi to make a portal on the first try), but they've been dormant for a while.
Donnie can temporarily create items with his powers like the ones we see in the movie, but to make a tangible item that would last, he's have to build it physically the way he would with any of his tech.
Leo probably had the hardest time accepting Draxum, since he is the most skeptical. Mikey is the one who accepts Draxum the most easily. But they did have episodes planned where Leo and Draxum work together, so Leo would have gotten over it as well.
They had never worked out a name for the second turtle sister (the first possibly being named after Frida Kahlo), but would have chosen another female artist to name her after. Maybe Camille, after Camille Claudel.
The planned sisters would be roughly the same age as the turtles, so also teenagers. The only existing designs are what we saw on screen. They had never settled on colors for them.
CJ and present Leo is kind of a weird dynamic, when you think about it. Casey still couldn't help but see Leo as a father figure, but it must be a little different when you're roughly the same age.
Leo keeps whatever he wants in the little bags he has attached to his belt. Snacks, candy, fidget toys, body spray - this is Leo, after all.
Splinter had never celebrated the turtles birthdays in the past, because he was so depressed about his own mutation. But going forward, now that he's come to grips with who he really is, he would start to celebrate that day.
A meeting between Cassandra and Casey Junior would be incredibly heartfelt. Break out the tissues.
They thought about bringing Piebald back in Man vs. Sewer, but it didn't work out. She's definitely still out there in the sewers, so there would be plenty of opportunity for the turtles to interact with her again.
Following the movie, the most serious repercussions would be to Raph mentally. He would still be carrying some of that krang mentality. He might even occasionally pick up on thoughts of the krang. It would almost be like he had some form of ptsd.
A lot of Draxum's softening only comes from after his horrible experience of having his life force sucked away by the dark armor. He may have never seen the error of his ways without an experience like that. So, if the boys had never been taken by Splinter, he probably would have gone through with his plan to make them into weapons.
Splinter would have understood that Casey Jr became a soldier because he had to, and wouldn't have a problem with that. He would view Casey Jr as a nephew or grandson. They're all used to thinking of people as family even if they're not exactly related.
As far as mystic abilities, Mikey is definitely the most powerful. Donnie and Raph both seem to have pretty strong powers too, maybe Donnie a little more so. Leo is the one who relies the least on mystic power and the most on his physical and mental skills.
Donnie definitely seems to embrace the mystic power at the end of season 2 and in the movie. Ultimately, he would find ways to combine it with his tech for supreme power-ups.
April is 18 and the turtles are 16-18. Casey Jr is around late teens or 20.
Rise Lore
Given that the first krang that came to earth crashed into the Crying Titan, there must have been some form of historic yokai/hidden city even before the empyrean was around to introduce mystic powers. After all, someone must have built the Crying Titan. Maybe it was built by some other race that actually predates the yokai, and the yokai evolved from that race, affected by the emperyan.
There are definitely still krang out there, and most of the ones that we encounter are evil. The possibility of a good Krang could exist, though.
Before the humans, the yokai roamed freely both on the surface of the Earth and underground. They were probably a lot happier then, and somewhat more numerous. Oppression by the humans must have taken a toll on them.
There were a lot of Hamato and only so many powers you could have, so there would have been a lot of overlap in ninpo abilities across all the ancestors.
The Prison Dimension and Dimension X are two different dimensions. Dimension X is where the krang are originally from, and the Prison Dimension was just used to get rid of villains. Both exist in the Rise universe.
If there was more Rise
There weren't any specific plans for Kendra, but she certainly could have been interesting as a frenemy.
They would definitely want to get into Casey's whole history with the TMNT, his mom, etc.
They would have wanted to develop April and Sunita's friendship a lot more, and see how both of them related to Cassandra Jones.
They'd make as many seasons as they'd be allowed to! But seriously, they could easily fill at least 3 more seasons. There's a lot to unlock with the Krang, and they'd also want to expore much more with Big Mama and the Hidden City.
Cassandra might not have been part of the main group, but she would have been a regular ally.
Cassandra and the turtles would have been allies, fighting the Krang. It's clear from the end of the movie that Cassandra is now roaming around and fighting krang, so she and the turtles could connect occasionally as a running storyline.
A new season would pick up from where the movie left off, so it would be a new plan instead of what was already made.
Bishop would have to be an ally, considering that the turtles had just saved the Earth. But he might be a grudging ally, one who didn't really trust the turtles or didn't like the fact that they don't play by the rules.
It would definitely be easier to do crossovers with the other 2D animated series, like the 87 series or the 2003 series. They could have some fun playing with both the writing and animation style of those shows. Combining 2D and CG animation is more difficult.
They probably would not have mutated April, as it would be a big step. In the scrapped episode where Dale turned into a wolf mutant, it was a result of a temporary mystic curse. They could certainly do something like that with April.
The turtles would still be able to comminicate with Karai through mystic means.
They would have gotten a lot more into the history of the Council of Heads in future seasons when they explored the relationship between the Hidden City and the Krang. They are clearly among the most ancient of yokai, possibly predating the Hidden City itself.
They could have done a temporary reverse mutation via some sort of mystic spell, to give the turtles human designs. It might have been fun since it seems to be something that fans enjoy so much.
They would have had the turtles go to the krang's dimension at some point in order to defeat the krang fully. They could have encountered any of the traditional dimension x/z stuff that way.
The storyline where the boys find their sisters would probably still happen. People would want to see it, even though it's been spoiled.
They had plans to eventually visit other Hidden Cities, such as one beneath Tokyo.
Cut Episodes/Scenes
In the original ending of the movie where Casey says goodbye and leaves, he was going to find his mom.
One of the scrapped episodes had to do with Mikey taking care of the other turtles when they were transformed into toddlers. He was a natural caretaker.
They never planned on a space arc, but they probably would have done one where they travel to the Krang dimension. They also were going to travel to the prison dimension to release Karai, and they could have had other adventures there as well.
Behind the Scenes
For the episode Pizza Puffs, Ben Schwartz did his part for feverish Leo without looking at the script so he would sound confused.
It would be great if Nickelodeon released some of the finished animatics for the lost season 2 episodes that were already boarded, but unfortunately, it's all copywrited material.
All animated movies go through multiple revisions, rewrites, and changes, which is why some of the original rise movie storyboards were scrapped.
They do remote recording all the time, especially since covid.
The amount that a writer incorporates into a fight scene varies from script to script. Sometimes, there are moments in a fight scene that are key to the story. If so, they are written out. Otherwise, they would sometimes write out a fight scene but know that it would change in the board. Sometimes, they'd just shorthand it.
The writers try not to indulge in too much fanfic because there could be copyright issues if it is similar to anything they would ever do in the show.
When writing the brothers, it was important to keep them in character. You have to know exactly who your characters are, all the time, in every way. The audience will forgive you if you do things that aren't exactly logical, but they won't forgive you if you sell out your characters.
There was never an overall map done of the lairs, just individual rooms. It was always kind of tricky for them to figure out exactly how to move the characters from one room to the other.
The krang invasion was specific to the movie, so we probably wouldn't have seen it in the series at all if it had not been cut short.
Other TMNT Characters
They weren't necessarily planning to add characters from other versions yet. They still had so many areas to explore that were specific to Rise, like the Hidden City, the yokai, and the history of the krang.
There were no particular plans for Honeycutt. One character that they wanted to use but never did was Monty Moose, and they were trying very hard to figure out a way to incorporate him into a story.
They didn't have any plans for Renet, but a character like her could easily fit into the Rise universe. Obviously time travel is a big part of the movie. They could use her to explore timelines that might have happened had the events of the movie turned out differently.
They didn't get a chance to explore triceratons, so there could certainly still be some out there.
Any similarities between Big Mama's assistant and the High Mage from TMNT 2003 are coincidental. They gave her the cape and hood to disguise her identity.
They didn't have any plans for Beebop and Rocksteady, since they don't really fit in with the Rise version of Shredder and the Foot Clan.
The turtles certainly could meet Yuichi Usagi.
Usagi Yojimbo crossovers are always fun. Ron could see one where his dimension has been overrun by the krang, and he comes to our dimension to seek the turtles' help because they're the only ones who have ever defeated the krang.
Ron-Specific Questions
Ron's personal favorite episodes are "Hot Soup: The Game" and "Sparring Partner."
They were super excited when they got John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten) as Meat Sweats, just because Ron and Russ are big pink rock fans.
When asked about favorite duos, Ron likes Raph & Mikey, Donnie & April, and Leo & Senor Hueso.
If he could only save one episode from Rise and the rest became lost media, Ron would save the four-part finale.
If he could save one cut episode or plotline, Ron would want to save the more complete version of the end of season 2, where we would have seen much more of the turtles training and bonding with Karai.
Ron was not part of the new Saturday Morning Adventures comic that has Rise Raph on the cover.
If he could make a spin-off, Ron would want to do a series where Cassandra roams the Earth fighting remnants of the krang, joined by her son Casey, and occasionally joined by individual turtles and others. Draxum might join forces with her as well.
Miscellaneous
The silhouette in a tank shown at the end of Bug Busters was meant to illustrate Lou Jitsu when he is first hit with the ooze and mutated along with the turtles. It's more of a memory than an exact replication.
The reason Raph was transformed via the pod instead of instantanously may have been because Raph was unwilling, and was more difficult to change than someone like the Foot Clan ninjas, who underwent their transformation willingly.
They never attempted to get a brand deal with a soup company so fans could get Rise hot soup, but it would be a good idea.
The photo from the movie was taken just before the krang arrived.
When asked which Rise character is most likely to be Spider-Man: none of them, because he's owned by Marvel and Sony.
When asked why Donnie likes cute bratty girls: Ron is not sure where that comes from.
In Dungeons and Dragons, Raph would be a fighter class, Mikey would be some sort of illusionist, Leo would be a clever assassin or theif. Donnie would insist on being a scientist because he's sure there would have been at least one sensible person back then. April would be the DM.
Ron doesn't know what the illegible skate ramp graffiti means, but can ask one of the designers about it.
In a coffee shop, Mikey would be the baker, Donnie would create the most efficient coffee brewing system ever, Raph and April would run the business side, and Leo would be the most demanding customer ever.
The Future of Rise
The demand for Rise merch is real. It would be nice if Nickelodeon would put out more official merch.
There are no current plans for a season 3, but we can keep trying!
All we can really do to try and get Rise back is continue to share the show and encourage other people to watch. As well as keep it trending whenever we can. Sooner or later, someone will realize that there's a very real demand for this show.
He has talked about the potential for continuing the show in a comic book or short format, or in some other formats as well.
When asked if there's any chance of Netflix picking up Rise, or for both Tales of the TMNT and Rise to coexist -- anything's possible!
Ron would love to see a Rise comic series, but it's not his call. As far as if it would be darker, Ron thinks it's important that for Rise, they keep things light-hearted and comedic. That was always the goal of the show.
Shows rarely get "cancelled" in kids animation. It can always be brought back, but the focus is on Tales of the TMNT for now. He's said before that Rise could be brought back down the road as a "retro" series, or in other formats like a comic book, movie, or shorts.
... plus one answer, that does not have the original question attached:
"She would be stunned, and probably disbelieving at first. But we would find a way (through mystic means) for her to see her future timeline, at which point she would be overcome with emotion."

Can we get art of 03 Raph finding Donnie and immediately rushing the kid to Don for medical help because A bloody cuts from hobb, B he think the soft shell has something wrong with it.
Yes! and i'll even go into a little more about it since it's pretty neat (and definitely different than standard adopted au). Ok, i went a little overboard but here!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Poor Raphie. He just went from panicked b/c the baby is hurt, to panicked that he's hurt and permanently vulnerable.
Ok, so when Donnie escaped Hob, the cat tried to grab him again, but ended up just catching his arm and shell with his claws, leaving cuts. Donnie saw some water and immediately jumped into it, letting the sewer system take him away (he's an aquatic turtle so being in the water wasn't a danger to him, other than it was dirty water and he had open wounds.)
When Raphie finds him, he almost misses the fact he's there, simply b/c he blends into the water really well and only had his head sticking out. He realizes it's a small turtle but when he tries to get near him, Donnie hisses and even tries to bite him (he's scared b/c of hob and thinks that this new mutant wants to eat him too.) So Raphie, not wanting to get bit or upset the kid anymore than he seems to be, just sits down and tries to talk him out of the water. It doesn't work. Donnie understands what he's saying but doesn't trust it at the moment. No he'd rather stay safe hidden in the water, thank you very much.
Eventually Hob appears and Raphie, realizing this dude is what probably spooked the kid, chases him off. Donnie sees this and is like "ok, maybe he won't eat me." But Donnie hasn't started talking yet (he just didn't want to and now he's somewhere else and really doesn't want to) but he does make turtle sounds his brothers knew. So he curiously chirps at Raphie, figuring if he chirps back then he's safe since he's only had his brothers chirp back to him before. When Raphie doesn't do it immediately, he gets frustrated and thinks he's wrong. But then he does, a cautious, embarrassed chirp (b/c Raphie hasn't chirped since he was five and decided he was too old for it) and Donnie decides he must be safe and goes to him.
cue Raphie going into panic mode b/c holy shit, this kid has open wounds and he's been sitting in sewer water for who knows how long, and why is his shell so soft, something must be wrong!
thank you! This was really fun to do!

My scrunkle (Fracturing Time Mikey) may have lost in the @rottmntpeepawpolls but he still loves his boys, even if Leo likes driving him up the wall.
I don't have a comic for ya since he lost, but I've got this and some random FT! facts below if you're interested in my ramblings
• I was originally actually going to do a F!Leo back in time fic! I had some ideas on what to do, it was going to take place during the movie, but the ending I had in mind was kinda sad tbh so I didn't go with it (though I do have a oneshot with all three going back instead now). Plus, there were already so many beautiful Future Leo fics out there!
• I then realized that there was quite literally only one other one of Future Mikey that I could find at the time (Mystic Hands), so I wanted to explore that idea more and give F!Mikey more love because he deserves it! I thought it would be a fascinating idea to go with too!
• This fic had originally been planned to be 10-15k long and just a short exploration of what could happen. The plot had been pretty different at the time as well, but it quickly got out of hand in word count.
• A part of the former bullet point was because I couldn't really find any Future Mikey fics to read lol so I just kept building upon my own. I also wanted to explore what his interpersonal relationships would be with each of the turtles, so he will be spending more time with Raph, Mikey, and Donnie in future chapters (currently it is at chapter 9 at the date this is posted).
• I love the idea that the movie parallels how Donnie and Raph died in the future, hence Donnie's death protecting Mikey in the fic.
• I have around 12 more chapters written out so far (just not checked over).
• I've tried to make most things that happen in the fic have some sort of connection with future chapters in some way, even some subtle, seemingly insignificant moments.
• I went out of my comfort zone with this fic. I wanted to do something bolder, something more plot heavy and what I wouldn't normally do, because I love reading fics like that. I often feel that I fall back on writing domestic aus, even though I'm not as interested in reading them, it's just what I was comfortable with.
• If I could go back, I would probably condense some of the beginning and make it pov alternating (but! I have snuck some moments in there, one of which is very soon).
• This fic is on a mini hiatus for a few weeks. I am neck deep in projects at the moment and work a full time job. I need to focus on those first before I can continue it, but I should hopefully have another chapter up in the foreseeable future.
And that's what I can think of for now! I'm not sure which person(s?) nominated FT!Mikey to be in the peepaw polls, but I want to thank you, it means a lot to me that you consider him to be up there with the other peepaws! He barely made it in there (32nd entry) lol but he's there!! I'm so glad there's fans out there that genuinely enjoy the story, and everyday I wish to continue it for all of you, you all keep me so inspired!!
I hope you all have a wonderful day, stay safe and cozy out there, everyone!

My I request a rottmnt x reader where they are out spending time with reader but they run into one of the villains (like ghostbear, meat sweats, or hypno your choice) and they find out that they are the reader's uncle that they haven't seen in a long time, so they catch up and see how they've been? Sorry if this request is long. Remember to stay hydrated
Villain Uncle
Tumblr media
RotTMNT x gn!reader
Warnings: aged up, awkwardness, a tiny bit of violence, not written as headcannons
A/N: Honestly, I stopped staying hydrated for a while, but I'm back to drinking a lot of water. Stay hydrated!! I would like to preface with the fact that before Hypno mutated he went by Mezmer-Ron so I'm assuming his name was Ron... I honestly had no clue what to do with Ghostbear...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donnie
You meet up with Donnie in the alley between the buildings you were perched on. You put the few pieces of mystic metal you found in his bag before you both turned to go back to the lair.
"Well well..." You hear a familiar New Zealand accent. Donnie tensed next to you. "I've found a turtle..."
Donnie turned and pulled out his bō, eyebrows drawn down. "I was in the middle of something." Donnie sighed. You turned to see the mutant hippo, who was all ready to pounce when he saw you.
"Y/N?" The hippo asks, lowering his rings.
"Uncle Ron?" You question.
"Uncle Ron?" Donnie turns to you.
"By days..." Hypno gasps, rings dropping to the ground. You race to him, enveloping him in a hug. A few years ago he just disappeared. "I haven't seen you in years, you've gotten so big."
"I'm hoping you weren't planning on killing my boyfriend." You laughed, Donnie hesitantly approached.
"You're dating a turtle?" Hypno huffs, both men glaring at each other.
"Says the hippo..." You answer.
Leo
Leo had portaled you guys to the beach for a day of relaxation. At least that was the plan, but soon Leo was fighting 2 giant crab men.
"I hate the Sando brothers..." Leo groans, being able to take a quick break from fighting to check on you.
"Sando?" You ask. He nods, watching them to make sure he didn't put you in danger. "Like... Ben and Carl Sando. Acrobats."
"Uh yeah..." Leo frowns, looking at you. "Why?"
"They're my uncles." You answer.
"Uncles? Your uncles are crab men... Why didn't you tell me you were related to the Sando's?"
"It never came up!" Ben charged, you quicky stepped in front. "Ben!"
"Y/N?" He grunts, skidding to a stop, Carl flies into him, making them fall over. "It really is you! What are you doing with this turtle?"
"He's my boyfriend."
"Aren't you a little young to be dating?" Carl glares at Leo.
Eventually they simmer down and you all go out for lunch to catch up. Your mom will be really happy knowing her brothers are okay.
Mikey
Mikey was headed to meet you at a yo'kai restaurant close by. He turned the corner and saw you with Meat Sweats. He couldn't see your face, but he saw Meat Sweats' gross smile. You were in danger, he had to do something.
"And I —"
"Y/N!?" Mikey calls. Rupert looked up, recognizing the orange turtle's voice. "Get away from them."
"Mikey." You grab his hand and pull him closer. "This is my uncle. Rupert Swaggert. This is my boyfriend, Mikey, he's a huge fan of Consenting Kitchen."
"Your uncle?" Mikey asks, at the same time Rupert says: "Your boyfriend?"
"We just bumped into each other." You smiled. "I haven't seen him since before he mutated."
Neither man spoke, nor did they look at you. They glared at each other. Sure Mikey was a fan of Rupert Swaggert, but he wasn't the biggest fan of Meat Sweats.
"Uh... I'm see you later, I have a date tonight." You smiled awkwardly at your uncle before dragging Mikey into the restaurant.
Raph
Both of you were chilling out in the park together. It was dark, so there wasn't a fear of people seeing him. You had grabbed takeout and drinks for a late night picnic.
This was your first date in months due to the missions Raph had to go on. But it made it all the more special.
"You wouldn't believe the guy that came in today at work." You laughed. Raph chuckled, not speaking so you could continue your story. "He kept trying to tell me that he needed left handed pencils. Like I was an idiot."
"Only one turtle?" Someone asks. You both turn and see a polar bear. "Y/N? What are you doing with this turtle?"
"Ghostbear..." Raph huffs. "I was just enjoying a date night..."
"Ghostbear?" You look at Raph who nods. "Like the pro wrestler?"
"Yeah?"
"That's my uncle!"
"What? You never told me! I was a huge fan of his... Until he tried to kill us."

Mom Tang Shen Again
part two
Shen loved baby noises. Her beautiful baby girl had been very fussy, and Miwa used to constantly whine if she was not given attention. She cried, she giggled, and Tang Shen would do nearly anything to hear Miwa's voice again.
She only says nearly anything, because she would not trade her boys for anything. Not even Miwa. It was a thought that made her physically ill with guilt, but the lives are children are not tokens to exchange. She wouldn't give up any of her children to favor her daughter.
She got used to her boys and their personalities very fast. Of course she didn't need to get used to how they look, she knows that they'll grow up to look like. She just needed time to adjust from one baby to four. Especially four with such large personalities.
Raphael is a little drama king. He lives in Shen's arms while she was at home and his cries at night only cease when Shen is there to comfort him, usually it works out since she's often awake grading her student's work. Sometimes it was frustrating to try and juggle giving her baby boy the attention he demanded and reading essays. Sometimes she got annoyed, but then she imagines that there will be a day where she picks her son up for the last time and suddenly that annoyance is replaced by a desire to hold all of her sons and cry.
Michelangelo is a little bundle of joy. He hardly cries, only when he needs something, and he always stops when Shen or Yoshi arrive to care for him. Yoshi thinks he likes her better though, so he was the second Mama's boy in their little family. He was curious, often to a worrying degree. There's nothing her brave little Michelangelo won't attempt to eat or crawl off of. She and Yoshi are always there to catch him. His laughter makes Shen's heart melt, and luckily for her she gets to hear it every single day.
Donatello was smart and quiet. He liked to play with things and see how they move, but unlike Michelangelo he didn't try an eat them. He took apart one of her pens, and after a heart attack and desperately checking to make sure he didn't eat anything Shen was amazed by her little genius. He had a look of curiosity in his little black eyes, and he stared at faces very intently. It reminded her of Yoshi, who Donatello loved being held by. Never for long, Donatello wasn't big on cuddles, but Shen assumed it was because Yoshi's fur was very warm. She agreed with her son, his Daddy was very comfortable to hug.
Leonardo was his father's son. He watched Yoshi and always reached for him whenever he was in the room. Like Raphael, he only ceased his cries when his favorite parent picked him up. Shen felt no jealously, because she thought it was precious. Leonardo always was quiet in his father's arms, and he was a very well behaved baby. She hoped that carried into his personality as he grew. He liked her hair, so when Shen held Leonardo he'd often gently tug or chew on it. A little gross, yes, but cute enough to excuse.
Yoshi and Shen can recognize who is crying and that's how they determine who gets up. They also make sure to get their sons to stop crying asap because Yoshi is a missing person and as far as anyone knows they don't have kids. They could move, sure, but neither of them have any ideas what the logistics for that would be.
Thus, them both being great at comforting their "assigned sons" in the night. Donnie was easy for Splinter to calm since he usually was hungry or needed to be changed. Leo's crying usually stops after realizing that his Papa is there to help with whatever was wrong.
Raph is very fussy, and it takes Shen rocking him and singing to him to calm her boy down. Sometimes she just brings him back to bed with her and Yoshi and he sleeps on her chest and grips her shirt. Mikey is easier, since he's usually calm after realizing Shen is there. Sometimes he's just being needy though. He'll stop crying and Shen puts him down, and then he starts crying again, so some nights Shen sleeps with two baby turtles on her.
Yoshi totally takes care of bathing the boys while Shen is at work. He also takes care of house work and cooking, anything he can think of doing at home? He does. He's a great stay at home Dad. He feels so guilty about not being able to work, and Shen can support them but that's because their sons aren't eating much more than vegetables and fruit yet. They're still very little but they's eventually have the appetite of growing boys. And they can't just not feed their boys.
Shen doesn't want to hear his apologies though, because she's coming home to her sons, husband, a hot meal, and a clean home. Well, as clean as their home is with four babies. Still, it was nice. Money wasn't important to Shen, they had food on the table and a warm place to sleep.
"How was work?" Yoshi always asked her. She always locked the door behind her first, and then greeted him with a kiss. He'd wrap his arms around her waist if he wasn't holding any number of their sons.
Shen smiled at him, tucking hair behind her ear. "Uneventful. My students asked about you, and I had to get teary eyes." She explained. "I just thought about how Michelangelo's diapers smell and I teared up on command."
That made Yoshi, her stoic and aloof idiot of a husband, laugh quietly. It was very true though. Shen considered Michelangelo's diapers weapons of mass destruction. "I made dinner. Do we have enough to shop again before the end of the month or is the water bill too high? If I don't eat we could cut the bill down-"
"Yoshi, what do we say about money?" Shen asked, cupping his furry face in her hands. He looked a little bit embarrassed.
"I am not allowed to go hungry as a way to save money." He replied, and Shen kisses him again.
"We'll figure this out. We always do." Shen said, "And step one of figuring that out is making sure we can all sleep at night with full stomachs." She added, and Yoshi nodded his head.
"I guess you're right. I need a lot of energy to take care of you five." Yoshi said, and Shen raises an eyebrow at him.
"Five?" She asked.
"You count." Yoshi replied. "Michelangelo gets his mischief from you." Yoshi said, and before she could protest he began to pepper her face in kisses.
Shen felt herself smile, and despite thinking of her baby girl every single day and missing her constantly, Shen was happy.
She wouldn't trade her boys for anything.

Spinoff, Spinoff!!! 😃 totally no official, and totally not cannon. Just a fan in loved with this Au♡.
It's been a couple of days since Leo found himself in the past. Was he really back in time or was this all a weird dream? Yeah. Yeah! That must be. Leo remembered being rescued by his brothers from the prison dimension, and crossing through a bright orange portal then everything went black from there. Of course! He is probably resting in the medbay, and being taken care of by his brothers. All of this has to be a wacky dream. Besides, if that was the case, being trapped in time wouldn't meant terrible consequences? Like changing the future, creating different timelines, some paradox or whatever. Like, how affected would be his present? Totally Impossible because dreams can't cause problems.
All of this time continuum made Leo's head hurt, good thing he had Donnie for this nerd things. Probably he'll ask him later... when he wakes up... eventually. This makes him question like for how long? It's just been a couple of days he's been here, makes him wonder how long has been out there in his present?
Leo needed to stop think too much about that or otherwise he'll the worst migraine he ever had. He just had to focus on the kids; watch over them while their father is out scavenging for food. Just to think about it made him feel hungry, but also with wanting to go out too. Maybe walk a little, get some fresh air, maybe a pizza from Run of the Mill, and stretch those legs. But he can't, not by the fact that he had a broken arm and leg, but because he had to watch over the tots.
No matter how many times Leo counted: one, two, three. Or repeats: Red, purple, orange. Raph, Donnie, Mikey. There was one that was missing, and that was his younger self. Was he replacing him? Would that be how dreams work? He hoped so, because it won't be nothing cool if a toddler version of him was replacing him in his own present time.
"Should we invite him to play with us?" Suggested the purple coded turtle. "He's been like that for hours. It's kinda worrying." He recieved a couple of nods in response from the other two turtles. The three toddlers had what it appears to be dolls, a little burn, but still good to play with.
"But didn' daddy said he needs westing?" Asked the youngest turtle. He thought that the older turtle might be to tired to play with them.
"He's not even in bed. He might agree to join us. Besides, this could be good opportunity to make him some more questions about our future... and make him stop look so creepy observing the nothing."  The three of them turn to see the blue turtle staring the wall, did he even blinked?
"Yes!" Making sound more the s. "Daddy would be ploud of us for helping. We can be scititifics."
"It's SCIENtifics. And what you meant is Doctors. Which is very different because those are who are responsible to take care of the health of patients and... if you guys didn't want to know you should've said so." Little Donnie was left behind. Didn't take him long to follow them.
"Hello, Mister Leo" Mikey called; made a little pause to make sure if he caught the older's attention. He was startled a little by the jump Leo made. Mikey scared him unintentionally, but a least he take him out of trance. "Sowwy. Would you like to play?" He showed his little doll to Leo. You can tell which doll belongs to who; all four dolls hair (or what is left of it) were also color coded.
The kid was waiting patiently for his answer. When suddenly they heard a voice coming from the entrance. "kids, I'm home." The little ones didn't wait a minute to rush to their father. "Dad. Daddy. Papá." Was heard from the three.
"How are my little ones?" Asked while he gave all of them a hug. Splinter had brought a bag full of old stuff that he distributed to each one. Donnie had recieved a microscope for kids, the lents were cracked but that didn't bothered him at all. He was super happy. Raph recieved a "new" old bear plush, it looks like they sewed it's arms back together, and that was missing an eye and an ear, but that didn't bothered Raph at all. For Mikey, he recieved a book of stickers, the majority were gone but there were still some left. That didn't bothered him, he was also happy like his brothers.
Leo was watching the wholesome scene in front of him. He could remember how happy they were even with the smallest things like this. It didn't had to be brand new nor expensive for the kids to enjoy it. They were really happy with what they got. And even if it wasn't to their liking, they will still showed a smile because their father gave it to them thinking of them, and that was more then enough. Leo almost let some tears.
"And of course, I wouldn't forget about you, Blue." He was brought back from his thoughts. Splinter handed to him what it seems to be a Jupiter Jim comic. Leo observed the comic in his hands in desbeliefe. Not because he had really great comic of JJ, but because he wasn't expecting a nice surprise like this. Not for him. "Oh, I'm sorry. You don't read this things no more, do you? I should've known..."
"I love it." Leo interrupt his father he saw that he was so nervous. He didn't want him to think he didn't like it. On the contrary. It might be simple little comic book, but it was being given with love, that makes it special. "Thanks dad." He gave his dad a small hug. Even if Leo thought it wasn't enough gratitude.
Splinter was a little confused, but he still correspond the hug. "Uhm, sure. Anytime." They stood there for a couple minutes more. "Umm, blue. You could let go now. I need to cook us a meal for lunch time."
"Oh right. I'm sorry." Leo immediately let go. And saw how his father vanished into the kitchen.
"So this means our father doesn't give us anymore presents in the future, huh?" Observant. Leo turn to see that one who was asking. Donnie was who approached Leo to ask. It was only him, the other two stood behind playing with their "new" toys. Donnie seemed sad, but with a little bit of hope to think that he might have a different response from what his thinking. "What are you saying, Don-tron? Of course he still gives us presents. Why wouldn't he?" He lied. They're just six years old, and meaning that they'll stop receiving gifts in two years more. Until their dad enters the phase of depression. Leo didn't want them to know that... not yet.
Side note: I did this in honor to Angel and his amaizing blog/Au. If you liked it, I could continue with the small side, side, non-official, fan story. If not, is also fine, (it's my first time writing a story) I would love to hear some feedback and your opinion.
Thank you for reading 💙
-🌸

ROTTMNT 60s AU !!!
UHHHH JUST WANTED TO PUT THIS OUT THERE WHILE I'M STUCK IN DENIAL ABOUT MY WRITER'S BLOCK
raph
please this man has SOUL
he sings in clubs in new york, he has a record coming out in '67 with his band Raphael and The Digg
his brothers didn't feel like joining the band, so it's up to some talented musician girls he met without a trained main vocalist (digg, with prairie dog, honey badger, and groundhog)
they're super popular in harlem and they make it to charts
raph meets other motown records signees and they always find he's the gentlest of giants
he and his band DESERVES a grammy
leo
he's a surfer !!!
he loves competing in surfing tournaments in long island
the boy's a legend, other surfers think he's a fish at first
if he didn't have separation anxiety for his brothers (a post-kraang headcanon) he would have gone to the west coast where the real competitions are (they never feel like leaving new york for very long)
for now he's happy surfing the coast of long island
he loves when todd surfs with him, his favourite part is the lemonade he gets afterwards
donnie
donatello is OBSESSED with the space race
he managed to hack nasa for rocket blueprints
he got caught and they asked him if he was a communist but there was no found evidence that proved he was so he was let go and his name was cleared
he managed to improve the blueprints he got his hands on and built more efficient rockets, then he used computing tech to make his very own battleshell
he has a super-powered telescope he nicknamed shelldon
donnie predicted the states would win the space race in 1965 because it had something to do with the war, i myself don't know how he used that data point to draw a conclusion
mikey
mikey is such a hippie he has mugshots of his charming smiling face framed to prove it
very anti-war, very pro-civil rights movement, pro-dope and lowkey anti-united states government
he was at the stonewall riots !!!!!
he not only fought for human civil rights, but for mutants too, so that he and his brothers could be acknowledged as citizens
humans turned into mutants are already citizens, but the mistreatment they get is unfair and mikey chose to be a leading pioneer for mutant rights
leo (hesitantly) opened portals for mikey in the south so that he could stand with people of colour in their trying times
misc notes !!
lou jitsu was popular in golden age hollywood, he won many accolades for his films until big mama made it look like he was signed to stay in the battle nexus
jupiter jim films are actually westerns, his name is junebug jim instead
big mama is a big mafia boss woman regardless of the era she's in, though her battle nexus is televised for all ages
instead of becoming criminals, mutants follow mikey's lead protesting for mutant/yokai rights and new york is the first city to acknowledge it
the turtles' beach parties are insane, there's always some people other than the siblings lingering around at midnight
april is the best reporter out there, she reports on the turtles' exploits all the time and she makes mad BANK over it (successful 60s black woman slay)
the foot clan is a cult a lot like the manson family, the turtles hate their guts
baron draxum does the same thing he always did, brood in his lab trying to destroy the humans (that is until mikey gets through to him)
sr. hueso's run of the mill pizza is still the turtles' favourite pizza spot, though the establishment is beachside because he's on good terms with his brother, who mainly does imports
casey jr. is a star hockey player, he also avoids the draft because he's from the future, so the government doesn't have his records
but cass protests against the war with mikey whenever she can, she's also anti-war
donnie also managed to be the first mutant on the moon by his own means, it's been a childhood dream since he saw laika's launch in sputnik 2
aight that's all i have for now, i hope you enjoyed !!

Chapter 7: Family Meeting
2007! Raphael x Female! Reader
Summary: Despite Raph's protests, hes made to bring you back to the lair to meet his family.
A/N: HELLO EVERYONE IM SO SORRY I HAVNT BEEN UPDATING, since school started i just kinda lost motivation to write BUT IVE CAME BACK. I cant say for sure how long youll have to wait in the future, cuz i have a problem with writers block. Also, this is a lot longer than most of my chapters, so enjoy!! But let me know if you like the longer chapters or shorter ones <3
Tumblr media
Raph didn't want his brothers to meet her. They would embarrass the hell outta him! 'What do I care...' he told himself, but deep down inside he couldn't stop the dread. He stared at the stove while he ate his Corn Pops aggressively.
"Dude, what did those Corn Pops do to you?" Mikey said, laughing as he poked raphs side.
Raph quickly grabbed his finger and twisted it, causing Mikey to yelp and beg for mercy. Raph scoffed and let go, going back to eating his Corn Pops. When he was finished he stood up, making his way over to the sink to wash his bowl and spoon.
"So are you going to call her?" Donnie asked as he grabbed a poptart from the cabinet.
"I'm gonna text her to meet me." Raph said, not looking at him as he dried the bowl.
Donnie chuckled. "If only Leo were here to meet your girlfriend."
Raph was about to threaten him, but the mention of his eldest brother stopped him. He glared down at the spoon he held, not saying anything.
"Uh... sorry about bringing that up." Donnie cringed in on himself.
Raph scoffed. "Dont be. It's not like he's comin back anytime soon." He said dryly.
Donnie sighed. After a couple moments, Mikey piped up. "Dude, suddenly it got like, really tense in here."
Raph rolled his eyes as he turned around and leaned against the counter. "Blame Donnie."
"I apologised!" Don protested.
Raph sighed before placing the bowl back up in the cabinet. “I’m goin to the dojo to work out.” Before turning around and walking away, not waiting for any reply.
He was finishing beating the crap out of his punching bag before he felt light headed. He exhaled and collapsed onto the bench, grimacing at the sharp pain in his wound. When Donnie mentioned Leo it got his blood to boil. God, even thinking about him made him pissed. Who was Leo to think he could just leave his family, his own flesh and blood, just because he “didn’t feel good enough”? 
Didn’t he fcking know that he was the best fighter out of them all?! He was truly selfish. And before he left, Raph may have started an argument, which yes he shouldn't have done, but then Leo started going on about how Raph was selfish and that only his own opinion mattered! Can you believe the audacity of that turtle?!
He grunted as he took a swig from his water bottle, grabbing the cloth beside him to wipe all of the sweat off his forehead. Raph glanced down at his phone, looking at the time. It was currently 4 pm. He wanted to wait a bit longer until it got dark to meet up with her, but decided to text her sooner so she had some notice. 
He texted her to meet him in an alleyway where he knew wasn't far from her apartment and had a sewer entrance so they could easily get in and out without getting noticed. He also made sure to mention to come alone.
When she didn't respond right away, Raph decided to do some sit ups. After a couple of those, he heard his phone vibrate on the bench. He sat up and grabbed it, and read Y/N's message.
Y/N: ok what time? My shifts already over so I'm not worried
He chuckled at how she didn't even question it. Silly girl.
Raph: How about in half an hour?
Y/N: Sounds good to me! See you then
Raph sighs, then stands up, stretching and drinking the last of his water. Time to go make sure she gets there safely.
----------------------------------------------------------
You didn't have to wait that long in the alleyway for him. You stood and looked around, double checking this was the right alleyway. Yep, it was.
Since it was a bit chilly, every time you let out a breath a little cloud formed.
Before you could even call out, you heard a soft thump behind you. You jumped slightly, spinning around. A small smile erupted on your face as you saw Raph emerge from the shadows.
"Hey, Raph." You look back towards the sidewalk to make sure no one would see you both.
"Hey." He smiled. "Okay, so uh… you probably wanna know why I brought you here right?"
"Right." You agreed.
"My family wants to meet you. Sensei mostly wants to meet you because he wants to know if he can trust you with our secret."
"O-oh!" Your eyes widen slightly. "So I get to meet your family?"
"Yeah. But…"
You frowned slightly. "What is it?"
You then gasped when Raph leaned towards you and in a flash, your vision was dark. You felt him tying a piece of fabric around your eyes. 
"Raph, don't you think you're taking this too fast? I'm not into this kinda thing." Despite the shock of him doing this, you couldn't help making a cheeky joke while you giggled.
Even though you couldn't see him, his eyes widened as a blush erupted from his face. He frowned. "I-its not fcking like that!!" You could hear in his that he was flustered, causing you to giggle more.
You felt strong arms pick you up, but you weren't that alarmed because you recognised they were Raph's. You heard him grumbling to himself.
 You clinged onto his neck despite his firm grip on you.
"I'm only doin this cuz we can't risk you knowin our location yet." Raph blushed and grimaced slightly as your arms wrapped around his neck.
"Oh… well I guess I can understand that."
You suddenly felt the wind rush around you both and you let out a little squeal, feeling a little nauseous. You heard Raph's feet thump on the ground softly, meaning he had jumped down somewhere.
The more he walked, a disgusting smell assaulted your nose. You scrunched up your nose. "Are we in the sewers?"
"Yeah." Raph laughed watching your reaction.
You nod slightly, nose still scrunched up. After a couple more moments of walking, you felt him stop and he placed you on your feet.
You heard some shuffling and then a crash, followed by an "oof!". 
"Am I allowed to take this off now..?" You asked, directed towards Raphael.
 He grunted in response which you took as a yes, so you slipped it off, only to be met with another turtle with an orange bandana in your face. You jumped a little, bumping backwards nto Raph.
"Mikey, what did I tell ya before I left?!" He scolded the orange banded turtle.
The turtle named Mikey threw his hands up. "Sorry bro! I just wanted to get a good look." He offered his hand to you. "I'm Mikey!"
You smiled sheepishly, shaking his hand. "I'm y/n."
Another turtle with a purple bandana appeared. He did the same thing as Mikey and offered his hand to you. "It's nice to meet you y/n, i'm Donatello but just call me Donnie or Don." He smiled.
You smiled back and shook his hand. "Nice to meet you as well."
You awkwardly stood there while you heard Raph huff behind you, crossing his arms beside you. Then, you saw a rat, just a bit shorter than the turtles. You assumed this is the Sensei Raph had talked about.
You bowed your head slightly to him. "And you must be Sensei Splinter." You smiled a little up at him. He smiled back and stood in front of you, taking your hand in his and held it for a moment.
"And you must be y/n. Thank you for helping my idiot son." He shot a quick glare towards Raph.
"Of course. I wouldn't call him an idiot though, after all he was just trying to protect--"
Raph suddenly cleared his voice loudly. "Okay, you met her, now what?"
"Dude we should all watch a movie together!!" Mikey exclaimed.
Before Raph could protest, everyone else agreed. But you were hesitant. "I would love to but I don't want to become a problem for you guys."
Raph stared down at you. "The hell do you-" he couldn't finish before getting smacked in the head by Splinter. He winced before re-phrasing. "What do you think you'll be a problem for?" He said gruffly.
You shrugged a little. "I-i don't know, I just don't want to invade your guys' personal life."
Donnie spoke up. "Don't worry about that, we would love to have you. We haven't had company like this in… well, we've never met new people really. Except for April and Casey, but we've known them forever"
You nodded, remembering Raph telling you about them. Then you smiled. "Ok, then. I'll stay."
Mikey cheered and ran towards the kitchen to gather snacks. 
After a bit of setting up the movie (that apparently Donnie pirated) and setting up all the snacks, you settled down onto the couch beside Raph. You smiled up at him softly, making his heart clench. But he didn't show it, just smirking a little and huffing, taking a handful of popcorn from the bowl in your lap.
You chuckled, offering everyone popcorn before the movie began. Then Donnie turned on the movie, and you let out a deep exhale, sinking into the old, tattered couch.
After about halfway through the movie, while everyone else was asleep, Splinter left to go meditate in his room. So it was only you and Raph awake now.
"Your family seems really nice," you whispered to him.
He scoffed quietly. "Yeah but my brother's can get hella annoying."
You giggle a little and lean in closer. "I'm sure you'll seem annoying after a while of knowing you too."
Raph playfully glared down at you. "Oh yeah? Ditto. Except you're already gettin on my nerves." He joked.
You held your chest where your heart is dramatically. "Ouch. My heart."
You both laugh quietly. You looked down, then shuffled closer to him so your thighs were touching, and wrapped your arms around yourself, getting a little chilly.
He tensed a little, trying to even his breathing. He noticed your eyes starting to droop. "You know you can fall asleep, right?" He said softly. What has gotten into him lately?
"Are you sure?" You looked up towards him. He nodded, then grabbed a blanket from behind the couch, throwing it on you. You giggled a little and got snuggled up in the blanket. You then gently rested your head on his shoulder before whispering, "Is this okay..?"
"Y-yeah…" He whispered back. You smiled and got comfy against him, before closing your eyes to go to sleep.
After a couple moments, he relaxed. He let out a soft exhale. The way you cuddled into his side made his heart skip a beat. Shut the hell up, Raph. She's just cold. And you can't be goin soft for anyone!! He scolded himself. But despite his protests in his head, he let himself fall asleep, managing to fall into a slumber way easier than he's ever had.

How about their S/O taking a kitten to the Lair out of planning? He/She found a lost kitten wandering alone in an alley, its mother and siblings weren't even near. He/She didn't want to leave that kitten by its own and decided to adopt it. What do you think?
A/N: Awwww thank you for ask this, anon 😭❤ I wrote an one-shot with all of the turtles. Hope you don't mind... After months FINALLY. Apologize if there are grammar mistakes.
Warnings: I'm sensitive when there's cute animals included in the stories. SFW, lost cute fluff life being receiving some love.
Tumblr media
"Alright. I'll be there in 10 minutes." You announced, smiling.
The eager young voice on the other side of the call echoed a little louder than usual. "Perfect! We're waiting for you, angelcakes!". You could hear someone else taking the phone from Mikey and Raph's voice spoke next. "Come quickly otherwise Mikey gonna eat all the dinner."
"Hey!", Mikey protested in the background.
You laughed. "Don't worry. I'll stop by your home like The Flash."
As soon as you left your apartament, the cold air of the night hit your exposed skin. Instinctively you rubbed your hands together, then cover your nose and mouth. The dark sky isn't with its shining lights spots, looking like it's going to snow anytime.
Walking by many large blocks, you finally entered in an alley where Donnie has mentioned to meet him at. There's almost no light sources around, as you expected. Something told you to take a look at your surroundigns to make sure there's no one who might be someone unwanted.
Nothing at all.
You shrugged, heading to a manhole cover a few steps away from you.
You were about to grip the heavy metal, but that strange 'something not right' feeling hit you again. You hesitated, sighing. What's going on with you? You've been at many alleys since you met the mutant family and you're already used being sorrounded with darkness. There's nothing wrong here. But why is your intuition saying otherwise?
You shook your head, and lifted the cover.
Meow. A high-speech sound echoed from somewhere, making you freeze and turn your head toward the sound.
You frowned.
MEOW. The sound came louder than before. Is that a cat?
You stood up, twirling around, trying effortly to find anything making that desperate small sound.
Meow, meow, meow.
"Where are you?" You whispered while follows the help call of the cat. It sounds like a very young kitten.
Over there at the entrance of the alley behind many filthy stuff, a small fluff ball shrunken against an old tangled fabric.
You gaped, moving away a trash bag and a bunch of rubbish spreaded over the ground near the kitten. ''Oh my God. How did you get here?''. You warmed your hands as much as possible and carefully picked up the small kitten, which it started to meow agitatedly. ''It's okay, little one. I'm not gonna hurt you.'' The poor kitten had its fur chilly. You unziped your coat and held the kitten against your chest, then immediately covered it. Using the free hand, you rubbed over the thick fabric, warming up the life creature under the mushy material. ''Shh, shh...'' You bounced back and forth while look around, searching for other cats.
There's nothing but dirt and scary gloom spots.
'Where are its mother, or its sibligns? It's common to find cats in clowder, or a kidle of kittens...'
Worried, you glanced down at the poor thing, wondering how long has it been on its own.
☆☆☆☆☆
Donnie's current checking some devises on his computers as he does every night before patrol. The time shown in the lower right corner of the screen called his attention. He quirked an eyebrow. You're 25 minutes late... Rolling his curved skateboard chair to another heaped of screens and checked the cameras settled throughout various tunnels, a pair of amber eyes scanning every single spot of the many underground environments. A sigh of relief left his mouth as watch you walking toward the Lair.
He got up from his seat and headed to the main entrance. ''Y/N!'' He called as soon as his eyes set on you. ''We were worried. Where have you been?''
''I apologize for the being late, Don. I promise your waiting will be rewarned, but now ...''
The genius lift an eyebrow. He did notice that your arm was inside your coat, he thought you could be hurt or anything.
You took a deep breath, carefully unzipping and removing the coat flap, showing it to your tall friend.
His eyes went wide, mouth gaped.
''Listen, this little guy needs help. I found him all by its own on my way here.''
Donnie kept his eyes on the tiny life being, his mind and heart shining from cuteness. ''Oh. Please, let me...'' He reached out to pick up the kitten, but you took a step back, hesitated. His hands are massive comparing to the kitten. What if he accidentally hurts it? The kitten is so small and fragile. You don't want to see anything going wrong, but you knew Donnie needs to check on it.
You looked down at the kitten then gave it to the tall terrapin, who picked up the kitten very carefully as if it was made of glass. The kitten started to meow restlessly as soon as his cold hands touched it.
''Donnie, he-''
''I know. Heat some water and pour it inside a bottle, I'll find a place to put this little guy.'' His long legs carried him to the lab, holding the kitten in-between his hands.
The poor tiny life being is desperte to feel warm again, its eager meows makes Donnie search everywhere in his computer center for something fluff to serve like a blanked; anything. His amber eyes clued on a dirt dish towel perched on a thin pipe above a few chemicals stuff on the table. No way he would use it on this kitten. Whatever he's looking for must be soft and clean.
Pouring some hot water inside a bottle, you felt unconfortable of hearing the kitten's cries from a distance. It must call someone's attention, though.
You turned, but almost ran over something, I mean, someone. "Damn, Mikey! Warn before suddenly show up."
"Sorry, angelcakes. Just wanted to say hi." He smiled, and glanced at the bottle. ''Were you making tea or something?''.
''No.'' You hurried past him. ''Donnie asked me to take some hot water for the kitten-''.
Mikey gaped. ''A KITTEN?!''.
''Yes!''
"What's going on here?" Raph jumped off from the gym large pipe.
"Y/N brought a kitten and didn't tell us!" Mikey protested.
The brute glanced at you. "Oh, cool. But we don't have properly ways to take care of a cat, Y/N."
"I know. Actually I didn't bring the kitten with this thought. I found him alone in an alley on my way here. He was alone. I couldn't just ignore its cries and abandon him out there."
Meow, meow, meow, meow. Adjusting some Raph's wool knitting inside a shoe box, Donnie, with all care he has, put the kitten above the soft fabric "I know, I know little one. You're cold." He petted its head.
"Donnie." You called from the computer center entrance with Mikey and Raph standing next to you. "I brought the hot water you asked for."
"Perfect. Thank you." He moistened the tip of a towel and carefully gave the kitten a ''bath'', cleaning the dirt gooey mess. ''Alright... Clean like a pure white cloud.'' He grabbed the shoe box and brought out of the computer station. "Y/N, I need you to put the hot water bottle under the wool knitting and cover the kitten. I'll be right back."
☆☆☆☆☆
''What's going on here?'' Leo questioned, authoritative. Mikey and you moved random ways to give him some space to pass by and ascertain. His vivid blue eyes caught a small kitten being fed in a bunch of Raph's knits. ''Who... Who did bring this cat to the Lair?''
You gotta confess that you're a bit afraid to admit it. Leo sounds he did not approve the small guest. You slowly rise your hand. "I know it was sudden, Leo. But I found him all by its own in an alley on my way here. He was freezing and starving. I couldn't left him behind." The leader kept his full attention at you. You continued. "He could have died." Your shoulders dropped.
Leo looked back at the kitten, kneeling right beside to where it is layed. He carefully patted it while watch Donnie feeding it with a seringue. "Do you know how old is it?" His eyes were on you again.
"A few weeks, I believe." Donnie spoke before you.
You nodded. "I agree. It is so small."
"And cute." Mikey completed.
The kitten finished its dinner and yawned, stretching its little paws, tiny pink bean toes opening like a flower, then adjusted itself into a ball position in-between Raph's knits, ripping an "aww" from everybody. The boys are sad for don't have conditions to keep a kitten; it's pratically impossible to look after a small life being in this giant envorviroment.
"I think I gotta put my heart in the fridge."
Raph glanced at him. "What the hell did you just say?"
"Because it's melting."
Three pair of eyes rolled simultaneously. "Jeez, Mikey..." You shook your head.
"What? It's true."

could i get some rise boys comforting a reader who feels unlikeable/unloveable?? i've been feeling this way a lot recently and it's really hurting my mental health lol, love your work!!
Adoration.
Summary: How do the brothers comfort their s/o, finding out they feel unloveable?
Characters: Leo, Raph, Mikey, and Donnie.
Reader: GENDER NEUTRAL (not specified)
Relationship: Romantic (Not specified in the request.)
Warnings: The feeling of being "unlikeable" , self-deprecating comments.
A/N: Lovely, thank you for the request. I would like to let you know that you're likeable and loved. You are deserving of good things dear.
Also this is a bit shorter than my other pieces since there's literally a typhoon that'll happen in 11 hours so please mind that.
Update: your boy had to go deep into the mentally ill state to write this.
As always! Please, Enjoy 💐
[ If you have any constructive criticism or corrections for any of my English do let me know! :) ]
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💐
You've never felt this way before, well in a long time. Before you were in a loving relationship with your boyfriend; you felt alone. Rejected so many times that personally, you couldn't count anymore. You kept questioning if you were really that unlikeable? It destroyed your self-esteem immensely. It sent you in a spiral of despair and fear for the future.
A fear for your reputation and value in the world.
April being one of your close friends, has kept reminding you many times of how great you were as a person. How you didn't need a partner to make you feel special. And you believed her the best you could. But you knew it would happen again, and you tried to be ready for it.
But could you really be ready to feel unloved again? No. You could not, so as you laid on your boyfriend's plastron. Those memories and thoughts you tried so badly to conceal, released.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💐
💙 Leo
You were the angel in his life, your smile shook his world.
Hence all the clever flirts he tried saying towards you which involved heaven.
He just adored you so deeply and how could he not?
Your eyes sparkled, your body welcomed him in warmth, and your lips were so soft.
The light you radiated just makes him fall for you even more. There was really no way he could lose his feelings for you. And he didn't believe that you'd think he didn't love you.
He thought that you were okay, he was okay, that everything was okay.
However that changed when you asked him a simple question.
He traced hearts on your back, embracing the familiar warmth you emitted. "This' the life..." he told himself. Leo looked down to your body on top of his. Watching as you nuzzled your head into his plastron for a couple of minute before you rose up. Your eyes looking into his, he felt his cheeks get warm.
Placing his hand onto your right cheek, you melted into his palm. He smirked for a while. Before you spoke.
"Do you love me, Leonardo?"
... what? His expression was one that you've never seen before. He was deeply concerned holding your face. "Y- Y/N, yes. I do love you. You know that won't change, right?" You nodded slowly, holding onto his hand. "Then... why would you ask that, love?"
Your body trembled as you tried finding the words to say. You didn't want him to know how you felt for so long. Longer than you both were even together. "I- ... i..." He frowned, hugging you close to him. "You don't have to tell me, if you're not ready. I'll always be here for you."
His warm embrace around you, felt like home. You only cried in his plastron as he held you close to him.
After that emotional event, he made sure to remind you how much he loved you.
He bought you flowers
You heard your door knock 1-2 times. Walking over, you opened the door to be surprised with colorful flowers in your face. "I- Babe what's this?" To your surprise, one of the petals glowed to your touch.
"They're flowers I snatched from the Hidden City! Unique aren't they?" You nodded your head, as you held the bouquet in your hands. "They're so pretty..." He chuckled holding your chin. "Just like you babe."
kissed you more affectionately
Leo had you place ontop of his lap, as you engaged in your intimate moment. His hands ontop of your waist, your arms around around his neck. While other times it was fast and quick.
This time it was slow, time consuming. Enough for you to become a flustered mess. You pulled away to breathe. Leo's face turning into a mischievous proud smirk, "Look at who's blushing ~"
Embarrassed, you covered your face as he pat your head. Letting you lean into his plastron. "Shut up..."
He even made you his wallpaper and made sure you acknowledged it. There wasn't a second in which you told yourself, that you weren't loveable.
He made sure you knew how much he adored you.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💐
❤️ Raph
He honestly thought you wouldn't like someone as big and spiky as he is. He tells his brothers he was lucky to be with someone like you.
He fell for you MANY reasons.
You just were so friendly and cute! There was no way he'd ever lose his feelings for you.
Whenever you were around he'd just pick you up and twirl you around. Of course, if you both were alone! His brothers would tease him nonstop.
And that was another reason he loved you, you just got along with his family so well!
You were just so likeable, how could he just resist?
However, you thought differently.
He was inside of your apartment, watching a movie on your laptop with you. You were in a comfortable position and he was too. The movie was hitting between the romance and mystery genres, as Raph heard you yawn multiple times silently. He chuckled, placing his large hand onto the screen. "I think you should get some rest now. I wouldn't want you lazing around when we go out again."
You lazily looked up at him with a frown. This worried him a bit, was the movie that upsetting? Before he could say anything you beated him to it. ".. Raph, what do you even... Like about me?" He blinked for a couple seconds... "What do you mean?"
You looked away trying to think of how to rephrase your question, without breaking down. "Like... Erm— why.. did you even start to like me.. y'know just uhm..." He listened to you struggle before you sighed, about to tell him to forget it. Until he began to ramble.
"Well.. your personality is really nice. You're funny, genuinely. The way you twirl your hair just to the left is cute... Oh! How you get along with each of my brothers. Especially Donnie is cool. You're cool Y/N and—" Raph had a cheeky smile telling you some of the multiple reasons he liked you as a person, happy to admit it to you. But as he opened his eyes he saw your eyes attempting to not cry. He panicked, "Ah— Y/N, did I say something wrong...?" You shook your head quickly.
"No, no... Just had some bad thoughts was all."
"Bad thoughts about what?" He stopped himself just in time, for Mind-Raph to help him rephrase his words. "If you.. want to share. Of course, ya don't need to right?" You nodded again silently laying ontop of his plastron not saying a word; as you drifted off to Dreamland.
And yes, while Raph may have been flustered. He was concerned on why you had to ask that.
It wasn't until a couple more weeks into your relationship that you opened up.
How you felt as if you were unlikeable because of so many people that weren't important in your life now.
Genuinely all of that information made him upset. You were just so wonderful, how could they make you feel like this?
That's why Raph decided to try his best to say the words "I love you" More frequently.
3 special words that's may not mean much to most people, meant the world to you.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💐
🧡 Mikey
You were his best friend and partner. There really was no moment in where he let you think he didn't like you.
You both usually lazily laid on bean bags as you played, laughing to stupid things.
You didn't think you'd think such terrible things around him. But oh, you did.
There was just so much to not like honestly... How you spoke, your style, .. you.
You were just unlikeable, and probably unlovable as well.
Hence, you began acting differently; distant.
Mikey could already tell you weren't feeling so good about yourself and he wasn't going to let that slide.
This was a job for Doctor Feelings.
It was a lazy Sunday, as you both just sat on the bean bags next to each other. Your head leaned a bit on Mikey's shoulder as Jupiter Jim played Infront of you. There was a feeling in your stomach that made you a bit sick. You weren't sick physically, no.
Just sick of feeling something that should've went away a long time ago. Mikey looked at you with a smile saying three special words. "I love you!"
Maybe that's what you needed to hear because Mikey could feel your grip on his arm tighten. He continued, "I love youuuu soooo much!" You giggled hiding your face into his shoulder. "M- mhm that's enou—"
"I LOVEEEEEE MYYYY S/OOOOOO!!" You were now flustered with him. Your doubt going away, he raised your face up for him to clearly hold. Just before he kissed your cheeks multiple times. "And nothing is going to change that."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💐
💜 Donnie
Now.. Donnie, he's a different type of turtle when it comes to emotions.
He isn't used to touch especially hugs. Suggesting that maybe your love language was physical contact.
He'd usually stick with talking his feelings out. Even if it's hard that's just how he works.
So when he notices your behavior lacking what made you; "you." He got suspicious.
He may not be good at expressing his emotions, but he is good at telling which one you're feeling. Your body language and facial expressions just say it all.
Though he didn't like how you were suddenly distant. He enjoyed the space, but he did miss your signature laugh and loving eyes.
You were spinning yourself in a chair, as Donnie tinkered with one of his creations. Usually you'd ask what it does, and/or ask to help. But right now you were just stuck in your thoughts. You haven't even noticed that Donnie was calling your name multiple times, until—
"Y/N." You jumped a little, now focusing your attention onto him. He sighs, "What do you think of my creation?" You hesitate on your answer. Knowing you weren't listening at all due to being stuck in your cloud of thought. "I- it's nice.." you said weakly with a thumbs up. You watched as he tinkered with his work, but as you were going to lay back in the clouds he spoke. "What's wrong?"
You blinked a little, taken by surprise. Your eyes a little widened. "What do you mean?" He glanced towards you, "You know what I mean, Y/N." He was right, you did know what he meant. You gulped, speaking in a hushed tone. "Just some... Bad thoughts is all. No worries."
"Uhm, full worries. It's clearly eating you up." You looked away as he tried finding the words to say, without getting mad. "Just my self esteem. It's really not a big deal..." He frowned. "Well to me, it's a big deal. You're a good person." You frown a little. "Well.. I just don't deserve it..."
You watched as Donnie suddenly began to type into his wrist. He seemed to be typing something pretty long because it soon became awkward. Then he looked at you with a smile. "Well, technically the numbers don't lie do they? You're..." A hologram appears of the word "100."
"You're 100% deserving of being liked, loved, and treated with kindness." You stood there speechless as you blushed. Becoming flustered... "God..."
He smirked, "I'm always right aren't I?" You chuckled. "Shut up..."

Some Sunny Day... || Future Raphael drabble
TW: Main character death, injury + grief
(Explanation below the cut- this is a short start for a possible story I've never posted)
New York - 2026
It had all happened so... fast.
The mission was supposed to be easy- go on a supply run, and search specifically for any kind of medicine they could find. It wasn't often the four brothers were together in missions anymore unless it was fighting Krang, which is why the four had jumped at the opportunity to at least do something this easy together. They were all they had left, with Dad having died two years back. Sure, they had Draxum and April, and Cassandra and her baby- but that wasn't the same. 
The fun didn't last long. Krang always found them, no matter what corner they turned or how they prepared. No matter Donnie's technical abilities and their broken ninpo from having lost Dad. 
No. They were found again, and it wasn't just Krang.
Leo had gagged when he saw the Kraangified state Hypno and Warren had been in, more pink than their actual colors and moving around like uncontrollable beasts.
Oh, how to turn tables. 
The fight hadn't been pretty. They all got hurt- Raph specifically, from shielding them so much. Oh, Raph, why would you shield them, shield yourself, not the one who had caused all of this-
Until the snapper and the slider ended up trapped underneath a building. The older one bleeding and hurt- badly.
"Raph, stay awake." Leo had begged, attempting to make Raph move so he could stop the bleeding- but the older was dead weight, barely able to open his eyes, let alone get off Leo so he could move.
Until, suddenly... he had grown very still.
"...Raph?"
"......."
"Raphael?"
"..........."
It was at that moment the glowing, orange chains appeared. Lifting the building off of them, inch by inch, while he could hear his twin scream about how they needed to get out, 'Mikey can't hold the building up forever'- since when could Mikey hold up buildings?? What were the glowy chains?? This wasn't his ninpo!
It couldn't be his ninpo.
Their ninpo was incomplete.
Leo didn't move an inch. Unable to, both because he couldn't look away from his older brother, his brother who isn't moving wasn't breathing- but also because Raph was way too heavy for him to move.
They got out, at some point. Leo didn't know how. He didn't care. He was quiet. Distantly, he wondered what was wrong with Mikey's arms. They seemed to be... glowing? Bleeding? In shock, the youngest looked at his shaky hands.
Donnie, meanwhile, was concentrated. He had bandaged up Raph's bleeding wounds as best as he could, trying to stop the blood from flowing out. They didn't have the resources to treat blood loss properly- Donnie would need to give up his portion of food for the day again. That's okay. He didn't mind. He could deal with some hunger, right now he needed to fix his big brother. Just fix him, and everything would be okay again.
It's not okay. He was too late.
Some sunny day...
He put a hand on his wrist. Donnie paled.
No... "Raph- Raphael, Raphie, don't- don't do this to me." He whimpered, shaking his shoulder to try and rouse him.
We'll meet again.
"No... no no no no no-" Leo gasped, finally snapping out of it and eyes wide with terror, cupping the snapper's face, which was still warm.  "Raph, Raph no, Raph- RAPH!"
Don't know where...
"Raphie..." Mikey whimpered, leaning forward and reaching out, ignoring the way his arms and eyes were still glowing, ignoring the way everything hurt and burned, and pressed a hand against his plastron.
Don't know when.
Mikey screamed.
A heartbroken, wheeping howl of grief.
But I know we'll meet again...
Everything around them started levitating as he cried his heart out, collapsing on Raph's plastron. Donnie was in shock, tears streaming down his cheeks, repeatedly shaking his head and mumbling about how he could fix this as he grabbed Raph's hand, nuzzling his head into it. Leo was ugly crying, pressing kisses on the snapper's head, begging over and over again for his big brother to open his eyes.
He would do no such thing.
Hamato Raphael would never open his eyes again.
Some sunny day.
A long time ago, I asked you guys to pick a title and I would write that- which ended up being the 2012 Mikey-centric story 'Be like your brothers (and never like yourself)'
However, this was one of the other possible titles- which I was kind of proud of but never got to writing. So I added a little backstory- it would have been way more detailed otherwise, and voila!
Maybe I'll do end up completely writing it, once I'm done with Toddler Mutant Ninja Turtles and the other one-shots? This story was supposed to have a happy ending, after all... would be a shame if I didn't add the comfort I intended to✨️

Bad day cuddles (Turtle brothers x Reader)
Yeah, I’m having a shit day, so I decided to make this CW: This talks about intrusive thoughts, depression, antidepressant withdrawals (YEAH THOSE HAPPEN, AND THEY FUCKING SUCK) and chewing/picking on your skin (something I do a lot.)
You laid in your bed, you’ve been awake for a couple hours now, but simply feel like you don’t have the energy to do more than twist and turn in your bed
this was normal, though, you had bad days where you didn’t have the willpower to hype yourself up to make it through the day, of course, you COULD blame it on not having your antidepressants, it’s been a week now since you last had taken a pill
but you knew the real problem to blame was yourself, you’ve been hanging out with your friends so much that you just... forget...
you stared up at the ceiling for another... ten minutes? you have a horrible sense of time during these episodes, but luckily after that time has passed, you finally managed to get enough energy to look at your phone
1:23 PM
‘awh fuck’ you thought, seeing well over 40 messages on your lock screen, 35 of them are from the group chat you have with the brothers, but this part of the conversation startled you
Neon Leon: Hey! we still up for pizza night at [Y/N]'s place?
BootyShaker9000: Think so, ask [Y/N] though, we might need to reschedule or move the location to the lair.
Neon Leon: @[Y/N] @[Y/N] @[Y/N]
BootyShaker9000: Oh, my fucking god, STOP, they're probably busy
~~30 minutes later~~
Raph-A-Doodle-Do: You think they're okay? They never take this long to respond, even in School.
Magic Michael: Hope so! What if they're sick?!
a few minutes after Mikey sent that message, you got a DM from Raph
Raph-A-Doodle-Do: Hey honey, you okay? Mikey's throwing a little panic episode right now, please respond when you see this, love you.
you sighed, knowing damn well that they know you read this now, due to the 'Read at 1:30PM' snitch marker, you decided to message the groupchat instead of just Raph
[Y/N]: Hey guys, I'm sorry I didn't say anything sooner, I'm just.... not feeling the greatest right now.
Magic Michael: Oh, No! Are you sick?!
[Y/N]: No, just down with a bad mood, don't worry, can we reschedule for next week?
you got no reply, but you knew they read it
15 minutes later, you got a knock on the window, you groaned, you knew who it was, but you just... can't get out of bed, you feel like if you do, you'll just die of exhaustion.
The knocking became more desperate before stopping for a moment, you sighed in relief, hoping they just went away
that thought was too hopeful, though, because a minute or two later, you heard your window break making you anxious and started biting the inner part of your cheek plus picking at various scabs on your body, before you also heard hurried footsteps come near your bedroom
They stopped right in front of your door, knocked softly for a few seconds, waited, then opened
You saw the four brothers; they all had worried looks, you relaxed before tiredly waving at them
Mikey instantly bounded towards you, hopping on the bed, hugging and peppering you with small forehead and cheek kisses
"Honey!!!! What's wrong?!" bless Mikey's heart, he was always the sweetest, hell, he even somehow melted Draxum's ice cold heart
Leo followed next, going to the opposite side of your bed and sat next to you, Leo wasn't nearly as concerned but he asked you in a soft tone "Did something happen?"
Raph and Donnie approached at the same time, sitting at the foot of your bed "Darling, you wanna talk about it?" Donnie nodded in agreement
You shook your head "Not now..." you mumbled, continuing to pick at the scabs on your arms, Leo gasped softly, he grabbed your hands and gently pulled them away
"Hey,,, Don't do that, love, please talk with us, we don't wanna see you like this" he mumbled, kissing your arms where you were picking softly
You started tearing up, venting about everything that's happened recently, and how you bottled it up until you just couldn't do anything anymore
They listened, nodding softly, letting you finish before you felt Leo and Mikey hug you, Donnie and Raph moved up and joined the three of you
you stayed like this for a while, basking in the touch of your lovers, Donnie got up, took your phone and started ordering pizza for the five of you, once he was done, he looked over towards you
"You wanna take a self-care day and watch your favorite movies?" he asked gently, you nodded softly, tears still pricking your eyes
He let out a ghost of a smile and picked you up, bringing you into the living room, he stopped at the couch and set you down softly, the others followed, each of them setting beside you
"Whatcha wanna watch?" Raph asked
"Can we watch [F/M]?"
"Of course" Leo purred, cuddling you and getting comfortable
The rest joined in
"I love you guys" you yawned out
"we love you too" they said in unison, softly nuzzling into you from four different angles
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Augh, I needed something that would be self indulgent and somewhat of a comfort post.

Oooo! Can I get (platonic) hcs for how the 03 turtles would be with a reader who’s a former purple dragon they still very much behave like a purple dragon member it’s just their on the turtles side now they maybe also started helping the turtles and left the dragons only after they saw a certain Brooklyn boy ;)
😏 I see. Anon you are inspired. I love the implications of this request and I love you.
Ex Purple Dragon
Platonic, Raph x reader implications
Warnings: none
Crack?
Tumblr media
When they crashed one of the Purple Dragons' hideouts they were not expecting one of them to turn on the others.
To them, you so quickly switched sides it was kinda suspicious.
For you however, quitting was a long time coming.
You joined to cover your housing problem after your parents got screwed over by loan sharks.
You never liked how the Purple Dragons did things but at least you were allowed to let loose.
when the turtles showed up it was the first time you seen them, but not the first time you've heard of them.
You knew you were supposed to beat them up.
But you were easily impressed by skilled fighting. It was safe to say that they were some pretty skilled fighters.
And well... The red one may or may not have a certain appeal to you that you couldn't quite place.
Though like previously mentioned, they found you a little suspicious.
Casey was especially unhelpful in trying to earn their trust and befriend them.
Lucky for you April was their to stick up for you.
Casey and the turtles had their reservations about how quickly she trusted you but she hasn't gotten hurt yet so there wasn't much they could do.
Mikey was the next to want to give you a chance with Donny coming around quickly after him.
Leo wasn't thrilled but he decided he would give you a chance.
ONE CHANCE.
Raph and Casey were still stuck on not giving you an inch but majority rules so they didn't get much of a say in the end.
When you went to the lair for the first time Leo, Raph, and Casey were watching you like hawks.
But it was when you met Master Splinter that your rep changed.
Remember when they first met April and Splinter was like, Imma trust my gut on this one and say your good.
He basically does the same thing with you and that's how you got Leo on your side.
Raph didn't exactly trust you but he was more willing after Master Splinters evaluation.
Casey still didn't like it though.
The more time you spent with the guys the more fights you ended up with them.
That's where they really began to trust you.
You proved that you had their backs through thick and thin.
Your mannerisms used to make them skeptical of you but now they see it's just how you act.
You slang and body language was still very reminiscent of the Purple Dragons, and you were still quite the street fighter too.
Because of the nature of your attitude you ended up clicking best with Raph and Casey, as ironic as that was.
You three often had movie nights and went out patrolling the city together.
You even spar together.
Admittedly Casey felt like a third wheel sometimes butwedon'ttalkaboutthat!!
You and Mikey ended up bonding over your mutual love of horror flicks and Donny liked having you test or using you to test his new inventions.
Leo appreciates having intelligent conversations with you.
It took a while for him to figure out that was something you were capable of though after seeing how you interact with his brothers.
After a bit though he'll come to realize he actually enjoys your company when you're more mellow.
