#Mikey's imaginary friends

[tblsomedoodles]

Here's an art/info dump about this stupidly cute idea that's been rotating in my brain for three day.

(the first comic here is just how they first met. they ended up in the same alley, pestering the same cat without noticing. Then the cat left and they notice they're not alone lol)

(Second is Donnie 'talking' with Mikey for the first time. He only uses Mind Mend to communicate and is just as surprised as Mikey to find it worked on him. (it has only worked with Leo before this))

I'll put the rest under a break b/c i will be going off about this and i don't want it to take up your entire feed.

I'm jokingly calling this "Mikey's Imaginary Friends" though that might change if i continue this.

Basically it's this, the twins grew up with Draxum while Raph and Mikey grew up with Splinter. Neither set knew about the other (b/c splinter though they were dead and didn't want his two remaining kids to worry about it, and Draxum was too focused on fixing his lab to pay much attention to the twins.) So, imagine Mikey's shock when, at age 8, he's out exploring topside (having snuck out) and runs into two more mutant turtles (who also snuck out and are exploring.) Thus begins an ongoing sneaking out to meet up thing between the three b/c Mikey's excited to have new friends and the twins are just as fascinated with Mikey as he is with them.

And before you ask, "hey, why doesn't Mikey tell his family about the two other turtles?" he does. Raph thinks he just made up some imaginary friends so he plays along but doesn't believe they're real. Splinter, on the other hand, thinks he's talking to Hamato ancestors due to some very big miscommunications (that i'll probably draw out at some point b/c it's silly)

Twins background wise, i'm still thinking through a lot of it, but i'll put my thoughts down anyways.

Draxum knew that training the twins at a young age would be counterproductive, so he doesn't train them beyond some basics a few times a week. Other than those sessions, he leaves them alone with their less-than-stellar caretaker, in favor of rebuilding his lab. The caretaker doesn't do much for them beyond give them food and very basic school like lessons. Beyond that the twins are left on their own.

they come to the conclusion that the only people that will care for them is themselves. They discover Mind Meld very early as a result of this and will not talk verbally b/c they found out early on with their caretaker, that if they tried to talk, they were just ignored anyways, so what's the point.

(I'm also thinking Donnie might be deaf or hard of hearing in this, with the pair of them using Mind Meld as a way for him to temporarily hear through Leo and thus keep Drax from finding out. but i'll have to do some more research before i decide for sure/figure out the specifics)

as for Meeting Mikey

That's why they became so fascinated with mikey. B/c mikey was the first person that treated them like a person and not a job or an incomplete experiment. (He's also so happy and bright, they can't avoid getting drawn to him lol)

Mikey's probably the only one they verbally start talking to, even after they teach him mind meld. (though Leo's the one to pick up on that more than Donnie. Donnie doesn't do much talking at all outside mind meld).

They also come out of their shells (hehe) a lot as they interact more with Mikey. Before they met him, they acted more like automatons, even when alone. The more they socialize with Mikey, the sillier these two get. Leo learns about puns and starts going mad with them, Donnie starts happy stimming about thing (which he has either been suppressing or just never had the urge to do before.) Basically they stop acting like little creepy statues and start acting like kids.

Honestly, it's just a cute idea with the kiddos meeting each other and Mikey inadvertently socializing his not-well-socialized brothers.

(also, the twins wear masks b/c Donnie doesn't like the smell of the city and he's worried about germs. Not for any ninja reasons, what so ever.)

Alright, that's it for my info dump. maybe more later? Maybe not? Depends on how much longer these kids keep my attentions (though right now, they're doing a pretty good job at it lol)

[tblsomedoodles]

the Myth twins have been using mind meld since they were toddlers and don't quite understand that it's not a normal thing lol.

And thank you! They're so cute! : )

kind of an uncanny resemblance, no...? :3c @tblsomedoodles @tmntseparatedaucompetition

Imaginary Friend AU

Next Part

Soooo uh-oh.... may or may not have thought up another AU idea XD

This one is almost certainly not going to have many posts about it (or... maybe it will never be posted about again-) but I thought the idea was cute! So, basically, Leo died in the lab explosion before he was named but his ghost stuck with his brothers, growing up with them. Mikey (being mystically inclined) is the only one to be able to see him.

Masterlist | Previous | Next

"I'm not lying! I'm serious! I meet [S/n] in an alley!" - exclaimed the orange claded turtle as his purple brother denied with his head

"Sure Mikey" - came Raphael's voice from the couch - "And of course Megan Fox didn't have anything better to do than chatting with you in a rooftop" - he mocked and turned his attention to his magazine

"Well, [S/n] had to go to protect the city. And that's okay but I'm gonna met them again tonight" - Mikey put his hands on his hips

"I don't know if that's safe Mikey" - came Donnie's voice - "Even if you meet the actual [S/n] I don't think you should give your trust so freely. It could be working with the Foot"

"Yoy sound just like Leo" - Mikey turned hiz gaze around

"Mikey, everytime you ended up trusting someone you ended up getting hurt" - says Raph - "What makes you believe this time will be different?

"But April said [S/n] was cool! And Leatherhead ended up being a great guy! Donnie!" - he called to his purple brother - "I thought you liked [S/n]!"

"Mostly I feel curiosity. That's all. I just wondered how their mutation go and what make that different from ours. From April's reports I'm certain Dr Connors formula is somehow similar to the mutagen effects. It certainly had a superior regeneration system, but is probably because —"

"Ugh!" - Raphael complained - "Please say that in a language I can actually understand."

Donatello gave his older brother a dirty look - "You're imposible" - he said before turning around, not finding his orange brother - "Where's Mikey?"

"Go before dying out of boredom" - Raphael locked his finger and passed a page of his magazine - "Or go to meet his imaginary friend"

"Raphael, what if Mikey is actually telling the truth and he's actually alone with a dangerous mutant?" - asked Donatello

"What do you expect me to do?" - Raphael closed his magazine, annoyed - "Try to stop him? Go after him to the end he complains of how we treat him like he was a little boy when he's a "grown men"?" - mocked with a fake imitation of Mikey's voice - "Why don't you come out after him if you worry so much? Or better? Go ask the fearless leader to get up his ass from his fortress of solitude, if he's in a good mood today?"

"You're unbelievable " - Donatello turned around and go to his lab - "I just can't with you!"

"Oh! So now you're a little pissy too! Just great! Another hermit of a brother is just what I needed!" - Raphael stand up and go to his room

In the entrance of the lair, Michelangelo flinched at Raphael slamming shut his bedroom door, breathing out a sharky breath. He tugged his skateboard before shaking his head. [S/n] was one of the good ones. They had to be.

For a moment he actually wanted to tell Leo he was going out, but he tensed, thinking that better not. Leo hasn't been in the best mood lately, so he probably wouldn't like him meeting [S/n] tonight.

Putting the skateboard on the ground, Mikey speed up away from the lair. Once no one else was left on the living room, Master Splinter come out of his chamber and gave a dissapoiting sigh. He hoped their sons would learn from their past experiences and move on before the rift between them would become to big. And he should probably talk to Michelangelo about stranger danger once he decided to come back home. His youngest son seemed to use some time alone to clear his mind.

You hanged from the building, expecting the sigh of the orange before duty decided to call [S/n] back to action, not really wanting to disappoint. You had left some poor devil hanging out in Hells Kitchen before coming here. You really expected the cops would come to get the guy down. Or he would really use a bathroom the moment the webs expired.

The sound of metal rolling against the paviment called your attention, looking down, really thanking the spider for improving your sense of sight, despite spiders having bad vision, except for the jumping spiders, species you believed was the spider that bited you. A manhole to the sewers slided and you prepared to jump in action when a familiar masked face and a tingle of acknowledgement revealed some green gummy bean.

"Mikey!" - you called, the turtle head snapping at your direction and smiling like a kid in Christmas - "Buddy, I was started to worry"

"Yeah, sorry." - Mikey apologized as he covered the manhole - "My brothers kind off didn't believed me"

"Sorry to hear that" - You say as you waited to the turtle to come up.

Despite the shell and the fame of turtles being slow, the turtle didn't had a lot of problems scaling the building and sitting near you. You could say he was more agile than most of your villains. You guys had more or less the same height, tough the turtle seemed more interested of New York's streets.

". . . . . So, do you like Jersey?" - you asked out of nowhere

"What?" - Mikey turned to see you

"Do you like Jersey?" - you asked again

"No, Jersey sucks" - answered Mikey with a confused face

"That's what I wanted to hear" - you answer - "Jersey sucks!" - you screamed, your voice being muffled by New Yorks noises. You nugged Mikey's shoulder - "Now you try, no one's gonna judge you, everyone hates Jersey"

Mikey seemed to doubt before looking at New York once again - "New Jersey sucks" - he spit

"Louder, like this" - you cleared your throat - "New Jersey SUCKS!"

Mikey give a weak laugh before standing up - "New Jersey Sucks!"

"NEW JERSEY SUCKS!"

"NEW JERSEY SUCKS!"

"YOU SUCK!" - came an angry scream from one of the buildings, you and Mikey stired out of your skin - "IT'S FUCKING 10 PM! FUCKING YONKIS!"

You gave Mikey an awkward look behind your mask - "I think we should go"

"Yeah, we should."

Mikey skated trough the rooftops as you walked near the roof eaves in tiptoes, totally child's play. He had finally seemed to relax of whatever was haunting his mind. Mikey talked about comics and video games, didn't help with the theory of him being a teenager just like you, one that had to hide in the sewer so that way the government couldn't come to cut him in little pieces. You talked about ice cream flavors and your favorite pizza toppings. You had a heated debat of putting pineapple on pizza, but ended as long you remembered they were people out there that put fish on it. It irked both of you and a new solidarity over respecting pizza came out of it.

"And that's why chocolate is the best flavor in the world" - you said casually, and of course chocolate was the best flavor, only an ignorant without taste wouldn't agree with you

"But what if they have pizza flavor?" - came Mikey's response.

"I'd say you're on thin fucking ice." - You pointed at him, at what he chuckled - "I'm serious, don't you ever dare to disrespect pizza that way"

"Okay, I won't disrespect pizza god ever again, I promise" - he raised his arms, all without looking at were he was going - "I never imaginated I'll be talking to you about ice cream"

"Why?" - you tilted your head. Was something you get to say? You were a pretty chill person! Everyone in New York should know that!

"I thought you'll be more like Leo" - said Mikey - "I mean, you guys are a lot alike, Leo's the big brother who takes care of us and you take care of everyone in New York, you both are the best kicking bad guys butts and..." - Mikey seemed to stop - "Leo always takes everything too seriously."

Ooooohhhhh. Family drama. Ouch ouch ouch. You shouldn't be hearing this. This was Mikey's Family and he shouldn't be talking this to the person he met yesterday.

"I'm pretty sure he just tries his best" - You said - "Had you tried to tell your brother how that makes you feel?"

"Always" - Mikey cross his arms - "But is always 'leader this' and 'leader that'. He's been all grumpy since that Foot Clan chick beat his ass the other day."

Foot Clan? You've heard about the Foot Clan. When you spied on Tombstone before jumping to kick his ass, he mentioned them twice. Sounded like a mix of a criminal organization and a feet cult. What was doing Mikey's brothers fighting them? They were vigilantes just like you? Except they couldn't show their faces to the world, even behind a mask. Or having a normal life.

Tonight you ended up learning more about Mikey and their. Still not knowing how they ended up as turtles or fighting a feet cult. But you couldn't ignore this. You just couldn't. God, you were so gonna get involved in this didn't you?

"[S/n], something wrong?" - Mikey's voice bribg you back to the present "If you had to go I get it"

"I'm fine Mikey " - you waved at him - "Just thinking something. We're did we stay?"

"On pizza flavor"

You exhaled from behind your mask. You're never gonna denied help to someone who needed it.

You were gonna help Mikey's family

In a way or another

Spider promise

Bonten!Mikey x Reader

Word Count: 3.1k

Part 1

4 years ago if anyone asked if you wanted to be a mother you would have laughed in their face and said no. But now, you couldn’t imagine being anything else. You hold your daughter on your hip as you fish the keys to your apartment out of your purse.

“Momma! Rice?” Your daughter squeals. The corners of her mouth pulling up into a grin.

You unlock the door with one hand. “Yes baby, we can have rice for dinner.”

You push the door open slipping inside and setting your daughter down. She toddles off towards your living room. You hang up your keys before slipping off your shoes. You line them up neatly against the wall.

“Mari take your shoes off!” You call to your daughter. You wait for a moment, listening for your daughter’s response.

“I’m Mawi, whas your name?”

Your brows furrow at the sound of your daughter’s voice. She’s never had imaginary friends before. A stone drops in your stomach. Something isn’t right here. Your steps are quick as you make your way to the living room.

“Mari? Who are you talking baby?” You round the corner into the living room just in time to hear your daughter giggle.

“Why’s your hair pink?” Mari tugs on the front of her shirt, rocking forward on her toes.

You lock eyes with the man sitting on your couch, and your blood runs cold. It’s been years since you’ve seen those blue eyes.

“You’re not supposed to be here.” You try to keep your voice from shaking as you speak. Every fiber of your being is screaming at you to take Mari and run, but you know you can’t.

“Momma.” Mari runs into your legs, causing you to stumble a bit. You scoop her up, holding her close to your chest.

Sanzu stands from the couch. You’ve spent the last three years making this little apartment a home for you and your daughter, somewhere safe and beyond the reach of your life in Tokyo. But now as Sanzu stands in your living room you realize that you’ve been living in a fantasy. You can never truly get away from Toman.

“I don’t think that’s how you greet an old friend Y/N.” Sanzu tilts his head in mock sadness, a pout forming on his lips.

“We aren’t friends Haruchiyo. We haven’t been for a long time.” You grit out.

Sanzu sighs, rolling his eyes. “And yet you still call me ‘Haruchiyo’.”

Your grip tightens on Mari as she squirms in your grip. “Why are you here Sanzu.”

“To bring you home,” Sanzu says flatly, his eyes dancing around your living room.

“I am home.”

Sanzu’s eyes snap to your face. You can see his jaw tighten and his eyes narrow as he stalks toward you. You instinctively take a step back, but Sanzu keeps coming closer.

“New York isn’t your home. You belong in Tokyo. Your daughter belongs in Tokyo.” Sanzu growls.

“My daughter belongs in New York, with me. We are not going back to Tokyo.” You tilt your chin up, refusing to break eye contact.

Sanzu glances at your daughter.

“Fine.” Sanzu shrugs, “I can’t force you to do anything. But don’t you think your daughter should know her father?”

Mari twists in your hold to look at Sanzu, “Daddy?” she asks

Sanzu smiles at her, “Yeah, you wanna meet your daddy?”

Mari reaches for Sanzu, and he plucks her from your arms before you can protest.

“Why don’t you go pick out some toys to bring with you hm?” Sanzu sets Mari down and she hurries off to her room. Sanzu watches her go.

“She looks just like him.” Sanzu says quietly

“Why now?” You ask, crossing your arms.

“What?” Sanzu glances at you over his shoulder.

“Why did you come looking for me now? You’ve left us alone this long.” Annoyance creeps into your voice.

Sanzu turns to face you fully. “Mikey sent for you. He wants you to come home. He wants to know his daughter.”

“Then why didn’t he come himself?” You bite.

Sanzu lets out a huff, “Things have been complicated at home. Mikey couldn’t afford to leave right now.”

You nod, ”Of course, Toman has always come first.”

-

Your stomach seems to do flips as you step off of the plane. You swore you would never come back to Tokyo and yet here you are. You hold Mari, her head resting on your shoulder as she dozes.

“Let’s go, there’s a car waiting outside.” Sanzu strides ahead, leading you through the crowds in the airport.

It’s dark when you step outside, following Sanzu to the black SUV that waits for you. He opens the back door for you. You slip inside, cradling Mari on your lap. A man you don’t recognize sits in the driver’s seat, he watches you from the rearview mirror. Sanzu slips into the passenger’s seat.

“Take us to headquarters, and make it quick. I’m hungry.” Sanzu mutters.

The man puts the car in drive and pulls away from the airport.

A wave of nostalgia hits you, riding through the streets of Tokyo. Memories flood your mind, images of you racing through the streets on the back of Mikey’s motorcycle, and that time Baji walked you home from a Toman meeting after you’d gotten sick. You feel an ache in your chest. You miss the girl who called the streets of Tokyo home. A small part of you wishes you’d never left. A larger part of you knows you had no choice. You had to leave to protect the little girl sleeping in your lap now.

The ride to Bonten took less time than you remembered. Sanzu was quick to slip out of the passenger seat, slamming the door closed behind him. Mari stirred in your arms, you shushed her rocking her back to sleep. Sanzu yanks your door open, holding out a hand to help you up. You shift Mari so you can hold her with one hand. You take Sanzu’s extended hand, letting him pull you from the backseat. You stare up at the building. You still remember the first time Mikey brought you here. It was right after he and Kokonoi signed the papers to purchase it. Mikey had blindfolded you, he’d wanted it to be a surprise. He took you straight to his office on the 15th floor. When he finally pulled the blindfold off you were shocked. You knew he’d been discussing a new office with Kokonoi but you had no idea it would be so lavish. You’d turned to him, asking how he could afford everything. Mikey had just smiled and told you that business was good right now.

“Y/N.” Sanzu’s voice drags you out of your thoughts, he stands at the door beckoning for you to hurry up.

You shift Mari up and hold her tighter before rushing inside.

The lights are off in the lobby when you enter, and the air is cold. Sanzu’s steps echo as he leads you to the elevators. Your steps barely make a sound as you trail behind him.

The elevator ride is silent as you watch the floors go by. 3,4,5. Mari stirs in your arms again, her little feet kicking against your sides. You aren’t sure if you’re excited or nauseous. 10,11,12. You close your eyes, taking a deep breath. You do not know if you will meet Mikey or the ghost that had taken his place. The elevator dings and your eyes open. The lights in the hallway are off, but you would know how to get where you’re going blindfolded. You step off the elevator and start down the hall towards Mikey’s office. Sanzu’s steps are quick behind you. You stop at Mikey’s office, hand on the doorknob when you realize the lights inside are off. Your brows furrow. Out of the corner of your eye, you notice light further down the hallway. You turn towards it. The meeting room. You take off down the hall again, before bursting through the door of the meeting room. You didn’t expect to see any of the faces you found inside. Ran, Rindou, Mochi, Kokonoi, and Kakucho sit around the meeting table. Takeomi lounges on a couch across the room.

The room goes quiet at the sight of you. You’re the first to break the silence.

“Where’s Mikey?” Confusion laces your voice.

6 pairs of eyes widen. The air in the room becomes tense. Kokonoi’s eyes shift behind you.

“You didn’t tell her?” Kokonoi snaps.

“I mean no, not yet.” Sanzu pushes past you before dropping himself onto the couch across from Takeomi. Kokonoi lets out a huff of annoyance.

Your eyes land on Kakucho when you speak. “What didn’t you tell me?”

The room falls silent again, you look around at the men sitting in the room. None of them will meet your eyes.

“What am I missing here? Where’s Mikey?” You raise your voice.

“Y/N, Mikey died 3 months ago.” Kakucho’s voice is soft when he speaks.

-

You’ve decided that Mikey’s hair must be made of gold. Laying in bed beside him, the afternoon light hits his locks just right. He looks like an angel in this moment. Laid on his back, hair fanned out around him like a halo, lips slightly parted and lashes fluttering against his cheekbones. He looks so at peace. The last time you’d seen him like this was before Baji’s death. After that, he’d changed. He became quieter, more withdrawn.

A frown makes a home on your lips as you watch the sunlight flirt with Mikey’s hair. His eye cracks open.

“What is it?” He whispers, his voice breaking the delicate silence in his room.

You shake your head. “It’s nothing.” You whisper.

Mikey shifts rolling over to face you. He crowds against you, your noses nearly touching. “I love you.” Mikey breathes against your lips.

You let your lashes flutter closed, warmth spreading over your cheeks. “I hope we can stay like this forever.”

Mikey’s fingers trail over your cheekbone, you feel his lips press against your forehead.

“I’ll try.”

-

Mari sits in a chair beside Kokonoi, she talks animatedly. Kokonoi mostly hums in response, but sometimes Mari will ask a question and Kokonoi will reply in a gentle tone. You sit beside Kakucho on the couch.

“She looks like you.” Kakucho’s voice is soft when he speaks, his eyes trained on Mari.

“No. She looks like her father.” Your voice is raw when you speak, you’d spent the last half hour crying in Kakucho’s arms.

As long as you’d known Mikey he’d had a sadness about him, you always just thought it was part of his personality. You knew Mikey was depressed when you left Tokyo, it’s the reason you left. You hoped he would get help after you left.

“Why am I here?” You ask, looking down at your hands. Nothing feels real right now.

“Because Mikey left a will, and you’re in it.” Takeomi is the one to answer your question. A cigarette dangles between his lips, unlit.

You meet Takeomi’s eyes, “You sent Sanzu all the way to New York to bring me here so you could read a will?”

Takeomi shrugs, “Didn’t have a choice. The lawyer wouldn’t do it without you.”

Kakucho places a hand on your knee, a comforting gesture you haven’t felt in a long time. The door creaks open then. A tall man in a sleek black suit steps into the room, he holds a thick folder under his arm. The man crosses the room, setting his folder on the meeting table. Kokonoi stands to greet the man, offering a bow.

“Miyoshi-San.” Kokonoi greets.

“Kokonoi-San.” The man offers a respectful bow. “Let’s get this reading started.”

-

Two hours later you find out that Mikey has left all of his profits from Bonten to you, as well as decision-making power within the company. You aren’t surprised by this, you and Mikey never actually divorced. What you weren’t expecting was the clause for Mari. If anything were to happen to you, Sanzu would become Mari’s guardian and Mari would be the sole heir to Bonten. Of course, Sanzu and Kokonoi would run the day-to-day operations until she came of age. What surprised you most about the clause for your daughter was the fact that Mikey knew her name. When you left you’d only told him that you were pregnant, you never even told him when you gave birth. You never told anyone after you gave birth. A pit settles in your stomach as realization washes over you. No matter how far you were from Mikey, he would always know where you were and what you were doing.

The room is quiet as the lawyer gathers up his paperwork. Mari sleeps soundly curled up in your lap. She has no idea how her life is going to change. You course through her blonde curls, they tangle around your fingers. Your sweet baby is only two, and now she’s the heiress of Japan’s most powerful crime syndicate. You watch as Kokonoi walks the lawyer out.

“Y/N,” Kakucho’s voice is low, nearly a whisper “Come on, you should get some sleep.”

Kakucho carefully lifts Mari from your lap, cradling her against his chest. The small girl doesn’t even stir. You move slowly, pulling yourself up from the plush couch. You sway on your feet as you follow Kakucho, weaving through the maze that is Bonten’s headquarters. Your body was on autopilot. Still trying to wrap your mind around the fact that despite everything, Mikey was still trying to take care of you and the daughter he never met.

“Y/N.” Kakucho’s voice pulls you away from your thoughts. He holds a car door open for you, motioning for you to get in.

You look around. Your mouth opens to ask about your daughter.

“She’s in the back, still sleeping.” Kakucho answers before you can even speak.

You nod, allowing Kakucho to help you into the car’s passenger seat. He closes the door softly behind you.

-

Kakucho’s apartment is exactly as you remember it. The small shrine set up for Izana near the door, and the large black couch you’d helped him pick out. It even smelled the same. Cinnamon, like the cologne you’d bought him too many Christmases ago. Your steps are careful as you make your way into his apartment. Kakucho closes the door behind you, making sure to lock it.

“I’ll put Mari to bed.” Kakucho’s voice is soft as he slips past you, carrying Mari down the hall towards his bedroom.

You plant yourself on the couch, staring at the bare wall in front of you. Thoughts still bounce around your head. You should never have come here. You never wanted Mari to know this life, the life you ran from. The sound of Kakucho’s footsteps pulls you from your thoughts. Kakucho sighs as he sinks into the couch beside you.

“I never wanted this for her.” Your voice shakes when you speak.

“I know,” Kakucho answers quietly.

You look at Kakucho, his eyes are already on you. “I’m going to take her home. I won’t raise her around all of this violence and bloodshed.”

Kakucho frowns, “That’s going to be hard Y/N, words already spreading that Mikey has an heir.”

“How?” It comes out sharper than you meant and you can’t help but wince a little.

“People talk. Even if you leave again other syndicates will seek you out. Mikey’s death left an opening for someone else to take power. Mari’s existence complicates that.” Kakucho shifts, resting his elbows on his knees and cradling his head in his hands.

A pit settles in your stomach, your baby was doomed before she was even born.

Kakucho stands from the couch with a grunt, “Come on, you need to sleep.” He offers you a hand, pulling you up from the couch.

You let Kakucho lead you into his bedroom. In the darkness, you can vaguely make out Mari’s shape under the blankets. You sit on the side of Kakucho’s bed as he pulls out a shirt for you to sleep in.

“Thank you,” You whisper.

Kakucho nods before slipping out of the room, the door closing behind him. You change quickly, stripping out of your clothes and tugging his T-shirt over your head. As you climb into bed, you can’t help but wonder how different things would have turned out if your heart belonged to Kakucho instead of Mikey.

-

It’s been three months since you arrived home to find Sanzu in your living room. Three months since you and your daughter were dragged back to Tokyo, and three months since Mikey’s will turned your whole life upside down.

You stand in Bonten’s meeting room, your arms crossed over your chest. You’ve been arguing with Sanzu and Takeomi about taking Mari home to New York for the last two hours, and honestly you’re getting pissed off at this point.

Takeomi takes a drag of his cigarette, “You won’t be able to protect her. People know about her,”

Sanzu cuts him off, “And they want her dead. She needs to be here, where we can look after her.”

You grind your teeth, trying to stay calm. “She’s my child, at the end of the day I decide what’s best for her.”

Sanzu’s green eyes fix on you, he tilts his head to the side looking at you curiously. “You mean our child?”

Your eyes snap to Sanzu immediately, “Excuse me?”

“Didn’t you hear the will? If anything happens to you Mari belongs to me.” A smile that sends a chill down your spine spreads over Sanzu’s lips.

Kakucho speaks up before you can, “Then it’s a good thing nothing will happen to Y/N.” His words are sharp.

Sanzu raises an eyebrow, “Are you sure?”

“What the hell is that supposed to mean?” You snap.

Sanzu shrugs, “People know about Mari, people who would do anything to get to her. Including kill you.”

-

The air outside is humid and sticky. Kakucho leans against the railing of his balcony, you watch the way the muscles in his back shift as he breathes.

“You don’t have to stand so far.” Kakucho turns to face you, the light from the living room catching the color of his good eye. “I don’t bite.”

You cross the small space between the two of you, coming to stand in front of him. You cross your arms over your chest, looking up at him.

“You know I’m not going to let anything happen to her. Right?” Kakucho searches your face for an answer.

You let out a sigh, “I know, but I’ll never stop worrying for her.”

Kakucho frowns. He opens his arms for you. You’re quick to tuck yourself between his arms, letting the sound of his heartbeat soothe your nerves.

“I wish it had’ve been you.” Your whisper is muffled against Kakucho’s bare chest.

Kakucho runs a hand over your hair, “Don’t say that, you loved Mikey.”

“I still do, but she’d be safe if it had’ve been you.”

(I'm not sure if I will write a part three, but I do really like how this part turned out.)

ran haitani is in love.

rindou doesn't know with who, or for how long, but he knows he is. he watched with a confused expression as his brother entered the conference room, hair styled as it always has been, shoes sleek, and his suit crisp.

he was also early. by 10 whole minutes.

"who is she?"

the older haitani, who had now sat down, span his chair towards his brother with a lazy, smitten smirk on his face.

"whatever do you mean, brother dearest? can't a guy just have a good day?"

"my ass," rindou rolled his eyes. "no day is a good day for you."

it was silent as the two brothers stared at each other until ran finally broke out.

"fine fine, i'll tell you if you're that desperate to know, calm down rin."

"i don-"

"she's hot,"

"mhm."

"and feisty ya know, not like those flowery, cutesy girls."

"mhm."

"and we met at the bar a week ago, she was dancin' with her friends and then she came to the bar, so i went to the bar and then we started talking and-"

"why are you on the table?" came mikey's voice from the door, the rest of the executives stood behind him with equal expressions of disgust.

ran, who now somehow lying tummy-down on the table had his legs stopped mid-swing, pausing twirling his imaginary long hair on his finger.

"good lord, you're in love again aren't ya'" kakucho dragged a hand down his face in annoyance.

"ya wanna hear about her?" ignoring the collective groans from his colleagues.

Why the twins abandoned Draxum

Ok, i promised more Imaginary Friend content, and i am here to deliver!

this is a little more of the plot side of things rather than the shenanigans.

i'll put it under the cut since it's long. again.

Ok, so they sneak out to meet with Mikey and Raph for about three years before Draxum realizes what's going on. (or part of what's going on. He knows they have been sneaking out and the caretaker hasn't been doing his job properly, but he doesn't know they were sneakign out to meet, or even who they were meeting.)

Upon finding this out, the caretaker is fired and Draxum decides that, if they are competent enough to constantly leave the house on their own and come back fine, they are competent enough to be properly trained. This means they no longer have the opportunity to sneak out.

Mikey and Raph try to reach out to them via mind meld, but it's too far for a strong enough connection to communicate, not to mention the twins keep purposefully shutting them out. the twins figure that since they can no longer meet up with them, that It's better to cut themselves off completely now than continuing to long for a time, they believe, is gone.

It's two more years before they meet again, and it's on accident.

When Mayhem stole the emperium, Draxum sent the twins to fetch it, treating it as a test.

They're sent out to fetch the emperium, and, of course, run into Mikey and Raph (and April). It's very much a surprise, especially considering they're standing between them and their mission. They're careful not to hurt their siblings but do get Mayhem away Donnie sending Mikey a quick "do not follow us. it's dangerous" mind meld message before they nope on out through Leo's portal. a portal that both April and the soon-to-be imitation crab man go through before it closes.

They appear right in the middle of the lab so neither of the twins quite realize they have stowaways until it's too late. They recognize April as one of Mikey and Raph's friends and figure it's not a good idea for Draxum to realize she's there, so they hide her in a nearby closet before Draxum can notice, miming for her to stay quiet. once Draxum leaves again, Leo portals her back out of the building (he's aiming for topside but ends up just setting her down on their front porch for Mikey and Raph to find.)

Anyways! Mikey and Raph (and April) show up like canon, and, of course Draxum is seeing stars. It's the other two. He could have a full set once again! but they prove to be difficult to coerce into joining him, so he creates that vine monster to fight them (and test them while they're at it.) He sends Leo and Donnie after them as well, but they linger, choosing halfheartedly fight April rather than their brothers. That is, until Mikey ends up weaponless and the target of an attack that could hurt him.

Then the above happens. Donnie instinctively protects Mikey, which angers Draxum, which causes Leo to portal Donnie behind him so he's away from him, and, then they defect, choosing to get their brothers, April, and Mayhem out of the soon-to-explode lab rather than continue fighting.

but yeah, that's how they get away from Draxum. The power of little brother in peril lol.

(fun fact i'm just coming up with now (but have been thinking about) Draxum was super extra dramatic when he named the twins originally. He named them Thanatos and Somnus. though neither of them really acknowledge those names b/c they so rarely heard them growing up. Literally only Draxum used them. which is why when Mikey asked thier names, they just shrugged. Why is that Draxum beign extra, b/c those are the twin personifications of death and sleep respectively (though Somnus is technically the Roman name. but since Somnus's Greek name is Hypnos, i thought it would be too confusing.) also, according to Greek Mythology, Thanatos and Hypnos are the twin sons of Nyx (goddess of night) and Erebus (god of the dark). SO yes, Draxum was being dramatic AF and named a set of twins he was going to train to be ninja warriors, after the mythological twins born to night and darkness. and who also embody death and sleep. (this also gives me a good excuse to jokingly call the twins the Myth Twins, even though the aus staying named Mikey's imaginary Friends. lol))

Imaginary Friend AU [Part 3]

<- Part 2

Soo Donnie was also injured during the lab explosion, though his was non fatal, it left him with a slightly deformed shell. Which causes weakness in his lower back / legs. While he has movement in those legs, they are often not strong enough to fully support his body and his back will start hurting pretty badly if he puts to much weight on them for to long. Splinter went through a LOT to get him nice crutches like this, but he did it!

P.s I did do research on crutches, how they are used and why but if anyone notices me doing anything wrong, please tell me so I can fix it as soon as possible! -v-
