Some headcanons regarding TMNT physiology

Over the years, I have come up with some headcanons regarding how I believe the Ninja Turtles' bodies work. I thought that perhaps it might be nice to finally share them with all of you.

These don't apply to all the iterations, of course, but they are pretty well universal in my mind, and I tend to incorporate most of them into my fanfics.

The Turtles (like leatherback sea turtles, echidnas, and some dinosaurs) are mesotherms, meaning they are neither warm nor cold blooded. They are, instead, in a middle-ground: they internally generate heat, but not to a constant temperature. In the Turtles' case, they will shiver when cold, and their bodies will not shut down right away when the temperature dips too low, though they may lose some energy and find it hard to concentrate.

Unlike many other modern reptiles and amphibians, who have a three-chambered heart, the Turtles have four-chambered hearts (like mammals and dinosaurs) that are larger and stronger than average human hearts and located at the center of their chests.

While the average human blood capacity is around five liters, the Turtles have about seven. Much of the blood flows under the shell -- a remnant of their lives as ordinary turtles, whose own blood does so in order to warm them when they bask. This means that the Turtles could lose close to three liters of blood before dying, while a human would only be able to lose two.

Their blood is also highly efficient at clotting, but that also means that storing blood for transfusions is difficult, and so must be directly transfused from one turtle to another in emergency situations.

Owing to their extensive circulatory system, they also have a larger lung capacity than humans and more oxygen-rich blood, and so are able to hold their breath for extended periods of time without adverse effects. Other than this, the Turtles' respiratory system is very much like humans', utilizing a diaphragm to inflate and deflate their lungs.

Like regular turtles, they do not have ribs, but rather their carapaces and plastrons serve that purpose, and they have muscles under their shells that keep their internal organs right where they belong.

Also like regular turtles, their spines curve along the insides of their shells. A direct hit on the center of their shells, then, could cause damage to their spinal column and nervous system, but fortunately their vertebral shields offer a fair amount of protection, so it would take quite an impact.

The Turtles are highly resistant to most infections and diseases, which increases their immunological responses. They do not get sick easily, and they recover quickly.

While their scales are not apparent, they are integrated into their skin, making it tougher than human skin. It takes a very hard hit to raise a bruise, and it is difficult to cut through without a very sharp or pointed blade.

Their bones are similar to humans, but are more resistant to breaking. They also heal quicker and stronger if they are broken.

Their muscles are also very close to human-like, but they are stronger than an average human due to compensating for the extra weight they carry in their shells. Because of this, their ligaments and tendons are also tougher, and it is difficult for them to have a joint dislocated.

Their sense of smell is more acute than humans, but not to an extreme degree. They are also not as bothered by foul smells (though this has more to do with living in a sewer than their physiology).

Their eyes are a bit tougher and more resistant to damage than human eyes due to a protective membrane that covers them. They see a bit better than humans in dark places and underwater.

Their hearing is somewhat more attuned to lower frequencies than human hearing, and is not dependent on external ears but rather an internal auditory system (making direct damage to their hearing unlikely).

They are capable of being knocked unconscious, but it takes a significant impact. Permanent or lingering damage to their brains is unlikely due to their structure, and so they also do not tend to suffer the same side-effects that humans would in the same circumstances (nausea, memory loss, etc.).

Although their nutritional needs are similar to humans, they do not need to eat every day, and in fact can get by quite well without food for a week if necessary (though they won't enjoy it). When food is readily available, however, they will eat as much as possible to store up energy. Their metabolism does not slow down when they do not eat, so overexerting themselves when they haven't had any food for a while can burn them out suddenly.

Their sleep schedules are much like most diurnal animals, though they are able to stay awake for extended periods of time and can get by on little sleep, if necessary. There have been times when they have been awake for days on end, getting by on short one hour naps here and there. In general, though, they like to have a regular sleep/wake cycle.

Like other reptiles, the Turtles never stop growing throughout their lifetimes; however their growth is slow, topping off at about 1-2 inches every five years.

Does anyone have anything they would like to add to the list? I actually had fun compiling it!

Fucking after they thought they lost you.

WARNINGS: NSFW | 18+ | thirtysomething ninja turtles | Drama? |

Leo holds you so tight it hurts. His thrusts are slow and sensual, sweet. Needy in a way that makes your heart ache. It's all soft moans, ragged breaths, and soft kisses ghosting your neck. Don't ever scare him like that again. Don't freakin' dare to leave. You belong here, warm and safe under him.

Raph kisses you as his very life hangs on your breath. Relentlessly bucking his hips, making sure to reach every sweet spot inside that pretty cunt until you're begging him to let you come. He will, so fuking good you'll be a mess when he's done with you, But first, you have to promise never to be that reckless again.

Donatello: What are the odds of a human surviving that? Little to zero, according to his calculations. Yet, here you are. And he’s learned something valuable: his heart is no longer only an internal organ. It's right here, in every breath you take, in the softness of your skin, in the beautiful way you squirm as he keeps abusing your clit. Fuck, he's never going through this again. He'll do better at keeping you safe.

Mikey: The tip of his cock kisses the softest part inside you as he keeps your legs wide open, rubbing his lower half over your clit as he moves. It feels so fucking good you don't care if you're drooling. Mikey bites your shoulder, squeezing his eyes shut as he focuses on the warmth of your walls sucking him deeper, needier—

"I'm close- "

"I know, I can feel it. Let go, angel— come for me,"

All the worries are drowned right there. You're here. You're his, you'll never be at such a risk again, it's a promise.

Dealing with an SO with constant nightmares

Warnings- mildly distressing angst with fluff

Leo

- Leo is probably the lightest sleeper out of all the boys.

- It doesn’t take much to rouse him.

- Especially when he knew of their little night time routine.

- A few strained whimpers and jutting had him sitting straight up,moving at any sign of danger.

- Head spinning towards your place next to him.

- He seen the tears tripping your face and it broke his heart. It had been a while since your last nightmare.

- Immediately his features and body softening as he gently shook your shoulder, muttering sweet words about how you were safe, how he’d never let anything happen to you.

- When you jolt awake he’s there with steadying hands and a cool countenance.

- Muttering sweet nothings as he helps you calm down, getting you to breath correctly. Bringing his meditation into practice.

- Tentatively brushing tears away.

- When he knows you are ready to go back to sleep he will pull you into his chest in such a protective manner, his chin hooking around your shoulder, tucking you further into his plastron.

Donatello

- Donnie, ever the gentleman did upmost research on why you had such frequent nightmare attacks.

- The results varied, diet, trauma. It could all be one or the other, nothing ever conclusive though.

- That frustrated him, Donnie needed definitive answers for why you where suffering.

- He was a night owl, always burning the midnight oil , so he was always awake when a episode over took you.

- You were sound out on the sofa in his lab. One he had brought in given how much you fell asleep in there.

- He had his headphones on, always sitting awkwardly so he had one ear out for you. And like clockwork, he could hear your distress in your sleep.

- Starting off unsettled before your body writhed with nerves, soft cries leaving your lips.

- Straight away he was on his feet, standing to his full height.

- You called to him in your sleep and that anguished him even more.

- He hummed soothingly as he gently inserted himself into your space. Like he would when he was fixing his little trinkets. Donnie was so adept in this routine that nine times out of ten you never even woke up.

- The tallest of the turtles gently cradled a hand under the ditch of your knees and the small of your back before hoisting you up into his arms with ease.

- He continued humming , the vibrations reverberating against his chest never failed to softening the taunt of your face.

- As he carried you to his bedroom he watched the stress melt away from your face as you drifted back off into a peaceful sleep.

Raphael

- out of all the turtles, he struggled the most with your nightmares. Souly because he struggled to see you in pain.

- Raph is as empath as they come despite his brash and harsh attitude. Particularly about the person he deems his soulmate.

- Although it had been a long while since you last had a bad one, which he was grateful for.

- Tonight was different though.

- Raphael awoke with a jolt to you hyperventilating , tears streaming your face as you writhed. This was a bad one.

- Eyes pressed together so tight , a little trickle of blood pooling at the corner of your lip from knicking it with your teeth.

- “ hey..hey!” He rumbled, a hand bracing your arm as he tried to steady you.

- He shushed you , spoke softly yet nothing was stirring you and it was only progressing worse.

- He was starting to get worried, as gently as he could he took both of your arms and applied a grounding pressure before raising his voice. Beckoning you awake.

- This worked, you jumped at the sound of his sharp gravelly voice, his strong arms stoping you from jolting up off the bed.

- Staring up at him with glassy wide eyes as you took a moment to understand what happened. Tremors wracking your body before the flood gates opened. Straight away he’s pulling you into his lap.

- Manhandling you up off the bed and into his warm embrace. Hushing you as his thick hands smoothed the goose flesh on your skin.

- He was so tentative , cradling you in his great hold like you where the most valuable object to grace this planet.

- “ I gotcha” he would mumble over and over again until your sobs stiffed and the heaving of your chest slowed.

- When you knew you were safe.

Mikey

- out of all the turtles, Mikey was the most natural at calming the storm of your nightmares.

- He didn’t have to trial and error like Donnie or use different methods like Raph and Leo.

- He was, as he called it, “ the master of nightmares.”

- And that’s what Mikey used to subdue your stress.

- For a normal standard nightmare, he would use laughter.

- For the bad ones , he brought out the ultimate trump card.

- Playing with your hair.

- Like Donnie, he never had to wake you up to help with your sleep trouble.

- He would hum sweet nothings or little one liners , that even in your sleep your lip quirked up at.

- His fingers would tangle in your locks, massaging smooth circles into your scalp.

- He would work the tension away from your face first, then gradually move you to be closer to him.

- He noticed you always held on to him in some way when these nightmares where happening , almost as though you where grounding yourself.

- He always made any limb readily available for your greedy hands.

- When you wake up the next day he NEVER mentions it.

- Would joke that what happens between Mikey and sleepy!(y/n) stayed between them.

Surviving the apocalypse pt 2

Leo x fem reader

Warning , minors dni , Distressing content, gore , angst, fluff ending

Word count-2.6k

Last of us au

Part I

A furious fever took hold of Leonardo , he was hot to the touch , sweat glistening on his brow. His next few hours spent drifting in and out of consciousness, every time he awoke startling to the pain , pain so intense he could only stomach being awake for a few fleeting minutes before drifting back to the peace of blackness. The usually stoic leader delirious.

She wanted to tend to him, to help him but she couldn’t stop driving , she had to get further and further away from the infected. In her rear view mirror she could see the carpet bombing starting as the military tried to control the infected. Her much loved city being devoured by flames. She only hoped and prayed that his brothers made it out alive.

The woman took a small break to take off her belt and tourniquet his damaged leg. Wincing as he hissed to consciousness , jolting forward as he asked her to stop. Pressing her lips into a fine line as she pulled it as tight as possible. Slowing the bleeding. She knew she needed to see to it as soon as possible or it could become badly infected.

By the days end she found somewhere to camp , stoping and pillaging gas stations along the way. Filling the van up and stealing as many medical supplies, water and food as she possible could. Dragging an old tarp off an abandoned car on her way.

Using the shelter of trees to nestle between , draping the tarp over to further camouflage the vehicle. Locking the van from the inside as she turned to Leo.

Before she lost daylight she began the gruesome task of removing the shard of metal from his thigh. Using alcohol to clean her hands as best as she could. Her breath trembling as she got to work. Holding a torch in her mouth as she readied herself. Her pillaged gauze and bandages as well as sutures ready to stem the bleeding. So greatful that Donnie had taught her how to patch them up. Setting the torch at an angle.

A breath in and out.

She apologised to his sleeping form.

She jerked the metal free.

He jolted up, a pained groan leaving his dry lips before laying back down.

“ I know it hurts darling please stay as still as you can. “ her voice was trembling , bordering on tears.

“ please ..please stop.” He rasped.

She applied more pressure and he writhed beneath her hand. She was crying now , he wasn’t in his right mind but right now she had to be cruel to be kind.

“ I can’t, It’ll get infected, I’m helping you. “

She was thankful when he passed out, having the ability to continue to clean him up, throwing in sutures , not clean by any stance but would hopefully do the job. She talked herself through everything, her eyes wide in panic as she continued to patch up the gaping hole in his thigh. Only breathing a sigh of relief when she finished her stitches. Cleaning the area with some torn cloth.

Now to sterilise with some alcohol.

She preemptively held his leg down , pouring the alcohol over, he woke again, a pained whimper leaving his lips, wide eyes looking towards her, “ stop!” His deep voice rumbling breathless, he was so exhausted that his attempts to pull from her grasp were fruitless. His stomach dropped as he looked to her blood soaked face, the tears tripping her , the pool of blood she was kneeling in. His blood.

Again ,drifting back out.

The next time he awoke he was clean and dry , the back of the van was spotless, not a drop of blood to be seen. He was laying on an old duvet with a small blanket draped over him. the back of the van made to be as comfortable as possible. He went to move , his whole body aching and sore. But not as bad as it had been previously.

After taking a minute to come around he sprung forward, eyes wide as the memories came back to him. His injuries, the world falling to shit, how he saved you from impending doom and how you saved him in turn. Eyes darting around restlessly. How much time had passed? His brothers?

Pulling the blanket back he looked down and seen a clean bandage and a well looked after wound. His broken collar remedied with his arm strapped across his chest , bandages securely the limb on a makeshift sling. His two katanas at his side and clean, as well as all his armour and gear. Placed neatly next to him.

The van sighed under the weight of his movement. He winced, carefully sitting up and stretching.

Instinctively he searched for her, not far from him she sat in the front seat, gradually he pulled himself onto his knees, making his way to her.

“Y/n” he said softly , no answer. His heart slowed. Leaning between the two seats to see his darling , sound out. Arms folded securely across her chest, a shotgun nestled between her arms. Ammunition strewn haphazardly across her shoulders. Her head falling forward.

In contrast to him she was slick with dried blood and grime. Her hair drifting softly in the breeze that wafted through the passenger window. A mix of her own blood and his, she looked thinner, more gaunt. Dark rings forming below her eyes.

At the second creak of the van, she gasped, startling awake as she went to point the gun in the direction the sound came from , spinning in her chair, moving on pure instinct , fight or flight rearing it’s ugly head.

The leaders eyes widened, his good arm shooting forward and shoving the gun in the direction of the open window, an ear splitting bang sounded as the round was shot out the ajar passenger window.

“Y/n! Y/n! It’s me!”

She was breathless, eyes wide, her chest heaving as she just stared at him. He stared back at her, shocked. She didn’t even hesitate.

The woman looking back at him wasn’t the woman he met back in new York. How much time had passed?

“ I’m sorry.” She whispered , her voice barely above a whisper. She dropped the gun in her lap like it had burned her.

“ it’s okay, you don’t have to apologise. “ he was soft, gentle. His eyes searching.

“ I can’t believe you are awake.” Her voice hoarse from misuse. Since Leonardo had drifted off to sleep many days ago, she just had herself. “ how long has passed?” He asked , his voice so gentle, calming. he was scared to startle her.

Now that she was facing him he scrutinised her quietly. A round face replaced by gaunt cheeks, scrapes and cuts all over her, the tank top she was wearing smeared in blood and dirt. Usually vibrant eyes hard and harsh. She looked… exhausted.

A finger sheepishly reaching towards her to grace the cut on her forehead. She winced before melting into his touch. Leaning her whole head into his hand with a soft breath. Using this moment to just be thankful that he had indeed woken up. Her eyes closing. He opened his palm and she nestled her forehead into the hand further. “ just over a week.” She mumbled against his skin. He was silent , heart quivering at the tears trickling down her face, cutting a path through the dirt.

He blinked, a memory coming back from just after the accident, how she tended to him, how she had to hold him down to administer his first aid, how she cried the whole way through it.

Had that been nearly a week ago?

Nearly a week he had been out and that whole time she looked after him, cared for him, nursed him back to health. The more he looked around the van he seen the cases of water stacked upon each other. Jerry cans filled with what he expected was fuel for the van. Dried and tinned food neatly tucked into a basket. A few gas masks of different sizes strung atop the cases of water.

“ I’m trying to find a radio, I know Donnie will get his hands on one, so we can con-“ he shushed her.

“ have you slept? “ she shrugged. “ I can’t , we have to keep moving, we are going to have to move now that I’ve wasted that round.” Due to the dull light he assumed it was dusk. “ can’t you rest tonight? And we can move on in the morning?” There was a pleading tone to his voice. She shook her head, there was fear in her there. “ they are everywhere Leo, we can’t stop.” Her exhaustion was evident , probably actively making her paranoia worse, but what did he know, he hasn’t yet seen what the world had become.

After pleading a little more she agreed to rest if she could move the truck to a new spot.

She began her routine , getting out of the vehicle , apprehensive eyes flitting around her surroundings. There was a string with cans that she carefully gathered up. pulling the tarp off the wind bars and folding it messily.

She refused Leonardos help. It was like her little ritual , it helped her feel somewhat safe. She has to become so independent , it had only Been a week yet, it had probably been the longest week of her life.

It was the blue clad terrapins first time seeing what the world had become. His first time seeing outside New York City actually. The back country roads , barren. He noticed she stuck close to the woodlands, close to shelter, far away from inhabited areas. The roads lifeless, vehicles crashed or abandoned. Dead bodies strewn around. He swallowed thickly. This is what she had been dealing with.

“It’s bad isn’t it?” She spoke up, the silence had become deafening. He just nodded. A pang of worry bloomed in his chest. Hoping and praying for his brothers and his father.

“I’ve been trying to find a radio. I’m not sure how they work but I know Donnie , when they made it out of New York that’s what he would have gotten first chance he got.” She tried to change the topic. He felt hopeful with her use of when and not if. “ what if they didn’t get out of New York?” He spoke softly.

“ they would have.” She said simply , no room for question. She was confidant.

When she found somewhere she was happy with he watched as she set up for the night. Using the trees to wrap the sting of cans around the van , an early warning if the living or dead came knocking. Draping the camo green tarp across the van , aiding in her want to blend in with the trees. Her final bit, locking the van from the inside. She had this ritual down to a t at this point. He was speechless. Impressed with how much she had changed. He had catching up to do.

“ why don’t you get cleaned up?”

“ I have to keep watch.”

“ I’ll keep watch.”

“But-“

“ y/n” he was quick to cut her dead.”you’ve looked after me night and day , you are exhausted to the point you nearly blew a hole in the side of my head, it’s not something you are going argue with me about.” He was sharp, a bite that had her words silencing in her mouth. His leader qualities peeking out as he forced her to deli-gate.

As her face fell , He sighed, using his hands to emphasis his point. “ please just sleep, for me.” He offered her a smile at this point, letting her have a nights rest was the least he could do for her ,after what she did for him. He was adamant he would be long dead if not for her.

Sighing but listening to him she clambered out of her seat, making her way to the back of the van, taking some of that old cloth and dousing it with water before she got to making herself somewhat clean. The first time she’s been able to since New York.

Now in clean clothes and looking somewhat like a person again, she slumped against the side of the van. Carefully taking the shot gun and handing it to him, he shook his head , nodding to his katanas.

“ you don’t want to get close to a clicker, just use this it’s faster.” Now he was raising his brow ridge“ a what now? “

“ they are like medium boss level infected.”

“ yeah?” He chucked at that analogy.

Tucking her hands into the gaping pockets of the jacket as she looked around.

“You are stalling. Go to sleep.”

“Wha- naw I’m not.”

He didn’t even need to anything. One of those mom looks had her confessing everything.

“ I cant, my heart is in my throat, I cannot sleep, you are still injured , what if something happens? “

A week constantly on the run, looking over her shoulder, not just her own life , her darlings in her hands aswell. Despite Leonardo being extremely capable of protecting the both of them, she was still struggling to hand over the reins, to trust that he could.

Every time she closed her eyes she seen his face , the face he made when he thought she had left him for good.

The face he made, the Hurt, the betrayal as she administered the first aid.

Heard his bouts of pain as she helped him.

God, she thought she was gonna loose him, day after day of him not waking up. Now that she had a minute to think, to not be on guard, she felt overwhelmed. She had never seen Leonardo so ruled by emotions , had never seen him so close to being lost forever.

She didn’t have to say anything, he tilted his head before apprehensively reaching out an arm. Taking a soft grip of her hand , he guided her towards where he sat.

He had folded down the passenger seat so he had a better view out of one and only window. His shell pressed firmly against the wall of the van. He sat cross legged, how he would when he would meditate.

Guiding her into his lap, her back flush against his plastron. Carefully he caged her in with his brutish arms. His chin resting gently on the crown of her head. “ I thought I was going to lose you.” She whispered, Barely audible yet he heard. “ but you didn’t And you won’t. He assured her, that arrogant cockiness creeping back to chase off her fears. His cheek moving to lean against her head. He smiled then , a great big hand coming to thread through her hair, smoothing out any tangles along the way. “ you did so good , I’m so proud of you. Thankyou for saving me.” Kissing the crown of her head for extra measure. She hummed in response. “ your welcome I suppose.” She responded, somewhat sarcastically , a little grin curling the corner of her lips. He chuckled, the delicious vibration thrumming through her.

“ I love you, Leo.” She tilted her head back to meet his gaze, when she looked up she was met with the most awe inspiring ocean eyes. His crows feet evident from how his lips curved up. “ and I love you.” He said it so effortlessly.

Leaning forward he kissed her so softly, so delicately. He could feel her relief in the kiss, she could feel his warmth. It was short and chaste. He would have no more distractions.

“ now sleep.” He ordered softly “ Let me take it from here.”

Random Turtle Thoughts About What They Do...

After Making Love to You:

- Leo: lays on his back with one arm tucked behind his head, the other wrapped around your sleeping form stretched out on top of him, he's got a soft smile glued to his lips, just gazing up at his ceiling, thinking about how amazing it feels to be in love, and how very blessed he is that you fell in love with him, every now and again he can't help but ever so gently press a soft kiss to you forehead as the feelings swell in his chest, like tides kissing the shore his love for you is endless...

- Raph: he'll pull away from you a bit and collapse to the bed, passing out for a few minutes, he doesn't want to, he wants to have you wrapped in his arms and gush about incredible everything that just happened was, but he's well and truly spent from giving you his all while simultaneously holding back so as not to hurt you, he knows how big and heavy he is so he's terrified of crushing you in his exhaustion, but once he recoups after a little break you're guaranteed to end up curled within his warm embrace lulled back to sleep with gravely churrs, the special churrs he somehow manages with only you...

- Mikey: he'll lay flat on his stomach, arms folded up under his chin, eyes literally sparkling in blissful awe as he watches you sleep, he just can't believe how unbelievably lucky he is to have you in his life, much less naked in his bed, almost brings tears to his eyes, and his body is screaming to be pressed right up against you, but he can't quite bring himself to move yet, he needs just one more moment to etch your splendor in his mind's eye, just one more time, before sliding over and tangling his limbs with yours for the rest of the day...

- Donnie: after the deed is done he wastes no time in turning you to your side to be little spoon, while he drops behind to be big spoon, to continue feeling connected to you, he can't bear to seperate from you, he'll stroke his hand down your arm, smoothing over the back of your hand, to entwine his fingers with yours, and press your conjoined hands to your chest, as he nuzzles into the back of your neck, willing himself as close as physically possible, his brain isn't back online yet, so he'll relish the rise and fall of your chest against his, and how perfectly you fit within the curve of his body, knowing he could never find the words to let you know how very much you mean to him...

Why are masked men so hot? Truly tho, what's the psychology behind the attractiveness? It's mental issues, isn't it?

Something super quick I wanted to say.

As I was browsing the Gifs section, I came across these fragments and I can only say that they made me laugh.

Just look at Donnie's face!

I could swear you're thinking “Is he really going to fall for that?”, it's like “I'm not going to participate, but obviously I want to see the result”.

And the sequence of these Leo Gifs.

I die with that beautiful little face that suffers for a few moments trying to stop its brothers.

He is the brother who knows that this is going to end badly, but he also knows that even if he tries, he will not stop his brothers from their mischief.

The gifs do not belong to me, they are from @angelicdavinci

Bayverse TMNT head cannons that no one asked for. 👹

Listen, and I myself have been guilty of it, we all have over romanticized the boys and we do it all to often because we come here for, what we each believe that is, a perfect world. But let’s just back up a moment and think about it logically… if logic applies when it comes to walking, talking turtles. How would it really be if you met and happen to fall in love with one of the turtles? In reality? Let’s dig into it.

Master splinter may show you kindness and may even favor you, but he will never agree with one of his sons having a relationship. It’s against everything he has taught them and that will never change. It also puts his entire family at risk whether you like it or not.

You will never be able to introduce him to your family or friends. Again they work in the shadows for a reason. You can not simply parade your boyfriend around nor show him off.

You can not tell a soul about him or that you’re even dating him. In fact you can’t tell anyone you’re dating at all unless you want to lie about it and compromise his position.

He can’t take you on dates. Well… not normal or formal ones. Although he can get creative in his own way. But date night is few and far between because he has the city to protect.

His duty as a ninja and a protector of the city will always come before you.

His love for his brothers and father also come before you.

His brothers, much like splinter, don’t approve of your relationship for the same reasons. It compromises their most powerful weapon… secrecy.

He’s a ninja. Sneaking into your home is a cake walk, but your ceiling better be tall. Be prepared for him to bump into things unintentionally of course.

Pray to god he never has to take a shit at your house. Be prepared to do some plunging.

Buying him clothes in the right size…. Forget about it.

Your first kiss is going to be awkward. One he’s never kissed before and two your mouths are quite the size difference. It’s going to take practice.

The first time you have sex is going to be just as awkward. He’s going to be worried about his performance but mostly his size. And he’d be right to worry. He’s twice the size of any porn star you’ve seen.

It’s going to take time to adjust to his size… not just his dick ya nasty! I mean his size in general. He’s much stronger than the human man and sometimes he doesn’t know his own strength.

You can not and will not go on patrol with him. He can not and will not give you details about those patrols either.

Master splinter will limit your time in the lair. Combine that with work during the day and him on patrol all night. You will rarely get to see him unless he breaks code.

April comes before you. Casey too. You’ll have to leave the jealousy at the door.

He can not give you store bought gifts. Everything he gifts you will be hand made.

He more than likely will keep you a secret from his family for quite some time… if or when you get caught that is.

Could you handle that type of relationship? Honestly I think I could be a good fuck buddy for Raph but Leo I’d catch feelings for and I just don’t know if I could do it. Let me know in the comments what your thoughts are. 😍

Since you’re an ace with HC can we get some of the boys doing typical male behavior or habits?

I’ll probably get shit from them for this but yes… yes I’d love to do this. Let’s get into it.

Both Raph and Mikey scratch their nuts without warning

Donnie sits spread eagle

Leonardo’s scandals smell like death

Speaking of smells, every single one of them has said “smell this” in regards to said stinkyness

Raph and Mikey miss the toilet and sprinkle on the seat

Only Raph cleans it up

Donnie and Raph both have cussed at and thrown the controller while playing a video game

Mikey wears the same underwear for a week before he’ll wash them

Raph drinks directly from the milk carton

Every single one of them have belched or farted and have laughed or bragged about it… even Leo

Every single one of them have jacked off to porn

Mikey has jacked off to April

Raph has saved photos of naked women, and men… with muscles

Donnie has masculinity issues

Raph has insecurities

Mikey doesn’t know when to take things seriously

Leo can’t remember dates… oh it’s your birthday? Anniversary? Yeah no

Every single one of them would love the opportunity to be a dad

All four like boobs

All four like ass

Mikey and Raph have cook offs, each bragging how their “bbq” is better than the other

Raph, Mikey, and Donnie never make their beds, put laundry in the hamper or re hang towels

Donnie and Raph are mister fix its

Donnie and Raph both brag about racing Raph’s bike and Donnie’s dump truck

Leo and Raph arm wrestle for bragging rights

Raph can drink all his brothers under the table and will boast about it

Each of them feel threatened by other human men when it comes to you. You know, they can give you a normal life and all

Raph and Mikey cry when they’re angry

They have all compared dick sizes

Hope this satisfies the itch nonnie!! This was quite fun

Finding one of the turtles asleep on the couch

Version: 🎞️TMNT Bayverse🎞️

Who hasn't fallen asleep on the couch at some point? It happens to all of us, it could even happen to turtles.

⚔️Leonardo🍵

Like Donnie, it is very strange to see him asleep on the couch, but not impossible.

But for what you want, don't walk near this turtle if you see him collapsed on the couch.

Maybe you will say, why?

Well, Leo usually falls asleep on the couch only when he had a specifically heavy patrol and was also punished in the Hashi, and maybe you will say, What's wrong with that? Well, Leo ends a a little more tired than normal, which causes him to fall asleep, but also his reflexes to take over.

That's how it is.Walking near Leo when he is like this will probably only cause some accidental bumps. (Almost all in the abdomen and legs)

Casey was unlucky to find out after spending almost half an hour writhing in pain on the floor while he hugged his aching stomach.

Only Splinter is able to wake him up to go sleep in her room. (He is the only one with enough reflexes to avoid a blow)

Another thing, although it may not seem like it, Leo would be the guy with a very heavy sleep, Mikey could be playing his drums with all his energy, Donnie could be using one of his loudest tools, even Raph could be using the blender to prepare his protein shake, no one knows how Leo can sleep like that, but he'll wake up practically right away if a little bit of light hits his face.

🥊Raphael🧸

He is one of those most likely to see you asleep on the couch.

Maybe there was a “Fast and Furious” movie marathon.

But everyone will know he's in the room by the loud snoring that echoes through the sewer.

No matter how hard you try to wake him up, it's just not possible.

Raph will just say 5 more minutes and he'll fall asleep again.

Although he is also an honest grump.

You could ask him anything and he'll grumble back at you.

And he will literally say anything you ask him.

Last time Mikey asked if he loved him (at first he just wanted to see him frown and take a picture), and in response he received an honest reading of how much she adored his little brother, no matter how many times she made him angry. (Mikey almost cried after that)

While asleep he is so honest that sometimes his brothers use him as a kind of psychologist.

Leo even apologizes for the times they have fought, Donnie sometimes lets out some insecurities, Mikey just wants to hear his brother say that he loves him.

But changing the topic.

If you want to wake up this big turtle, just move one of his weights and he'll be there in a second.He does not like the weight to be modified or altered if he has not been notified beforehand.

Do it and he'll be checking every weight he has for about an hour.

⚛️Donatello ⚗️

Seeing him asleep is practically a miracle, because this adorable mad scientist doesn't sleep unless his body screams it at him.

So when you enter the lair and discover that the one on the couch is none other than Donnie, it's a huge surprise.

Of course, that also comes with certain caveats.

1. Don't try to wake him up or tell him to go to bed. (If you do, the thought of going back to sleep won't cross his mind again.)

2. Don't try to prank him when he's in that state. (Everyone learned the hard way that they shouldn't do it, and I'm talking about EVERYONE, even if you are their partner, revenge will come to you if you dare to do it)

3. Do not touch anything that has been left lying around.

The last one is the most important. Don't try to tidy it up, don't try to pick up the trash, don't even think about moving that plate with a half-eaten slice of pizza on it.

For heaven's sake, don't do it.

Because when Donnie wakes up and notices something different, he'll spend a full hour complaining that it wasn't a mess, it was a materialized brainstorm.

That's right, it seems that the empty soda can that Leo had thrown over had a purpose.

So if you don't want to have a dramatic Donnie, don't move anything around him.

🎉Michelangelo🍕

He is the one we will always see asleep on the couch.

Most likely, he tried to defeat a final boss from his most recent video game. (Courtesy of April)

So sometimes you could see his fingers move.

Donnie discovered that it was a combo that Mikey creates in his head and he writes it down so when Mikey wakes up he applies it. (And he copies it for when he wants to have an advantage)

But you should be careful if he stayed up late because of a horror movie marathon.

Because at any moment you can hear him screaming as loud as his lungs allow... and then he falls asleep again.

That's something everyone has experienced when Mikey is asleep after a horror movie.

Leo almost always loses his balance due to his brother's unexpected scream, but in the end he considers it as involuntary training for his reflexes.

Raph ends up breaking his comic book, or his water bottles burst from the force with which he crushes them in surprise.

Donnie ends up breaking his keyboard, or an experiment explodes.

TMNT Leo x Reader: Warming Up To You {PART 2}

Summary: After attempting to start a civil relationship between both you and Leo, everything is pleasantly less volatile. However, you discover that having Leo’s attention is a lot more nerve-racking than being ignored.

READ PART 1 HERE

Request by @loonahdhdiwi

Song Rec: In The Middle Of The Night - Elley Duhe

A/N: This is literally just a whole bunch of weird romantic tension, pls excuse the shitty writing and horrible prose. I literally listened to the song and wanted to fuxkin finish the series

WARNINGS: Cussing (as per usual), Tension (as per usual), Typos because I’m a dumb bitch (as per fuckin usual). Leo’s lowkey OOC

“So, you’re a nerd.”

“No,” Donatello mimics your sarcasm seamlessly. “I’m a genius.”

“Synonym of nerd,” you offer with a grin.

The poor turtle had stumbled into the lounge room with the intent of clearing his head. Failed experiments can be frustrating, especially when they’ve blown up 53 times consecutively.

“Jesus,” Don pinches the bridge of his nose, “you’re one brain cell away from being classed as a sea sponge.“

Your jaw drops and he takes advantage of your speechlessness. Stepping towards you with irritating bravado, he faux gasps.

“Oh!” the tall terrapin pouts mockingly, “I’m sorry, was that too many big people words?”

You stumble to your feet, hands outstretched menacingly towards the grinning genius. “Oh, I’ll show you a ‘big people’ word you fucking bi-”

“And that’s where you both shut up and split,” a familiar voice intones as you’re yanked rearwards. Your heart drops at the contact of your back against Leo’s body.

Keep reading

New Beginnings: Stay

A TMNT New Beginnings chapter (number TBD at a later point, as I wrote this out of sequence)

Raph and Stacey try desperately to get time alone together. Rated M, 18+ for swearing and sexual situations (NSFW)

——————————————

It was hard to concentrate on anything.

Jabbing at the half-cooked ground beef, she was grateful she had picked spaghetti for her night to cook. It didn’t particularly require the mental dedication of a more complicated meal, which was good. Her mind was dedicated elsewhere.

Raphael, for instance.

A pleasant shiver ran through Stacey at the thought of his name. The multitude of ways it could roll off her tongue if given the chance in the right kind of situation was an enticing thought. And she so desperately wanted to be in that kind of situation.

Waving off steam from the pot of boiling water next to the ground beef, the irony wasn’t lost on her. Dumping a package of noodles into the water, she sighed and set the timer. Shifting her weight onto one foot, she piled her hair on top of her head with one hand and used the other to fan her face. She closed her eyes and tried to breathe deeply.

With a brief whisk of air over her shoulder, the fan over the stove was clicked on. Her eyes snapped open just in time to see his heavily muscled arm draw back behind her. “Turnin�� that fan on might help with that,” he rumbled quietly.

Her heart skipped a beat as she took in another deep breath. She supposed that eventually she would get used to not hearing him enter a room, but in the meantime, the surprises weren’t necessarily a bad thing. Turning slowly to face him, she let her hair fall loose around her shoulders and wet her lips. “Maybe,” she answered in a rough voice. Clearing her throat, she lightly brushed her fingertips across the broad expanse of his chest. “Maybe not.”

It was his turn to inhale deeply, and as he did, his chest rose and stayed there as he held his breath. One eyebrow ridge raised curiously as the muscle in his jaw flexed. Releasing the air evenly, he reached across and brushed her hair back over her shoulder gently. “Maybe not,” he repeated.
