Some of my favorite TMNT fics on AO3

Note: these fics are not in any particular order, and there are plenty of others that I like which might not be on the list for whatever reasons. I might also add to this post later on.

The Chronicles of Karai Getting Her Shit Together by Crowdog - TMNT 2012. Post season 2-canon divergence where Karai shows up at the farmhouse instead of staying in the city.

By Arrangement by theherocomplex - An Arranged Marriage AU where the fate of a world-saving alliance between humans and mutants rests on a reluctant union between Donatello Hamato and warrior April O’Neil. A sweet, funny slow-burn fic.

Not Our Problem by Kyn - “Set in a future in which the Foot took over the East Coast for over a decade. The three surviving turtles have finally killed Shredder, but remain bitter, jaded, scarred, and more than a little distrusting of humanity. Lots of hurt/comfort/psychology/fraternal love/infighting. Involves a baby.” Warnings for discussions of infanticide and suicide, attempted rape/non-con, and coping with disability.

Unraveled by ChickInRed and Ikara - TMNT 2012. “Donnie's hiding a secret, one he believes will destroy his family should they ever discover it. Little does he know his brothers have a secret as well, but unlike him they can't wait for him to find out.” A hot, sweet, occasionally heart wrenching fic with turtlecest and infant death.

jade green eyes turned white by subtlyfailing - TMNT 2012. A powerful and brutal exploration of the dark Raph storyline at its fullest potential.

Completely Casual by Werepirechick - TMNT 2012. Casey, Donnie, and eventually April stumble into a relationship. Winner of FIRST PLACE in the Universal TMNT Erotica Fanfic Competition 2016 for STEAMIEST SLASH/FEMSLASH. Warnings for self-loathing and bad guys being hateful.

Baby Diaries by the Peanut Gallery by moonie - TMNT 2003. The TMNT and their allies record their thoughts after one of Bishop’s schemes leaves them with a very small new member.

A Son For A Daughter by sleepseeker - TMNT 2012. When Splinter attempts to briefly trade Leo to the Foot in order to rescue Karai, he makes a grave miscalculation that will upend all their lives. Tw for intense non-con and mutilation.

Devil took your hand by moogsthewriter and taizi - TMNT 2012. The Hamato Clan races to save their youngest member after he’s brainwashed by the Foot; a beautiful and terrible story full of angst, violence, and survival.

Together Again by InkyTurtle (Melodistic) - TMNT 2012. Donnie has finally gotten his beloved brothers back--sort of. Now the question is whether he’s the turtle they left behind.

can’t let a cold heart be free. by Chandrakantya - An angsty little Leorai story on a rooftop.

Gravid Problems by Gemi - The TMNT are in for a big change after Donnie gives Leo and Raph some very interesting news. A sweet, funny, adorable little work; warnings for mpreg and tcest.

Maelstrom by FicklePencil - Raph’s thoughts in the aftermath of “Broken Foot.” A lot of angst for a rather short fic.

Also, here’s a list of my favorite TMNT works from orphaned accounts.

[the1trueanon]

Ok. If none of you Have read "Three Days to Live" By Werepirechick on Archive of Our Own You need to. Unfortunately, I can't get the link (my device keeps blocking it TnT) and I don't remember their tumblr name, but please please please go read it and give them love I am not kidding this is such a good story.

And obviously since I loved it so much I drew their outfits from the party. Because yahs, my little kings and queen.

But seriously, check it out. It's really good.

Rise of the TMNT belongs to Nickelodeon/Flying Bark Studios "Three Days to Live" and the original designs for these cahracters and outfits belong to Werepirechick on AO3 Art belongs to me

[gumy-shark]

everyone who’s written a tmnt 2012 x rise crossover on ao3 except werepirechick is wrong actually bc if they were to meet then rise!raph would immediately pick 2012 raph up by the armpits and wave him around like “look at my weird new cat!”

[nerves-nebula]

fuming that the first time I see a deeply relatable depiction of the inner mind of someone who often witnesses domestic violence, and is terrified to become the target of it if they try to interrupt it, is from binging an unfinished TMNT fanfic that hasn’t updated since 2019

i mean im not MAD cuz its really fucking good but im still FUMING that it’s taken me this long to even realize that was an experience other ppl even thought to write about! fuck! I need more!! 

Edit: Fic is These Days by werepirechick

[snailpool]

if you like FTM raph (which, big same) have you read Werepirechick’s fic, “to know yourself”? i highly recommend it!! 😁

Ah ill have to check it out!!

[fire-fira]

For the TMNT Ask Game!

7. Do you read/write fan fiction? What was your favorite?

11. What is one head canon you believe so strongly, you sometimes forget it's technically not canon?

13. What's your favorite part of the fandom community?

7. Do you read/write fan fiction? What was your favorite?

Do I write fanfiction? Yes. (Though admittedly I haven't written as many TMNT fics as I intend to/have kicking around in my head yet.) Do I read fanfiction? Absolutely hell yes.

As for my favorite, that's a tough call since there are a lot of good ones. For the moment I think I'll have to call it a rough tie between EchoKazul's [The Blood In My Veins], KenzieQuip's [Sister], Kyn's [Call Me What I Am], Werepirechick's [Three Days To Live], and Werepirechick's [Progress]. (Wow, the AUs ran rampant in this. lol)

11. What is one head canon you believe so strongly, you sometimes forget it's technically not canon?

That Raph's compassionate, soft, and protective side is a known and reliable factor-- and his family knows it. (I know a lot of fans lean into Raph as the unreasonably angry and violent one who doesn't care how he affects others, but based on my reading of him I don't think that's fair. So when I see that 'Raph is the angry one who's fine with treating people he should care about like crap' it's like I get mental whiplash because it just doesn't feel right.)

13. What's your favorite part of the fandom community?

At least the part of the fandom I socialize with is really relaxed and easy to get along with. I really appreciate getting to talk about different interpretations of the characters (sometimes throwing those different iterations together in RPs to see how they bounce off each other) and getting a more nuanced view of the different iterations and their interactions as a result.

[TMNT Ask Game] Ask me things! n.n

[hood-ex]

Mmmmm.... What if I am a tmnt fan who is looking for good fics 👀

Then you absolutely should read my favorite fic of all time if you like hurt!Leo and hurt!Mikey 😁. It is written in the first person which I know bugs a lot of people, but the voice for Mikey is so good and engaging that you won’t even notice it. The 2k3 characterization in it is brilliant and you can actually “hear” the turtle's voices when you’re reading.

Underdark by Nekotsuki 

He’s hanging upside down in the middle of the great underdark, weighed down by a half hysterical turtle in the middle of a bunch of pipes and water and rock that are conspiring to kill us both off, and Leo still manages to sound like he Has A Plan.

Here are some other turtle fics you might enjoy (tbh a lot of good ones are on ff.net but I’ll just give you ones from AO3):

2k3

Smoking Guns by Valpoet

Same as it Never Was divergent - in a world where by miracle alone the brothers survive and Donatello came back from "Purgatory". This is a series of various oneshots, drabbles, and snippets from an alternate ALTERNATE universe in which Leonardo is blind, Donatello is guilt stricken, Michelangelo is learning to forgive, and Raphael is learning how to cast aside his anger in favour of loving his brothers.

Raph could really use a smoke right about now. He could also use some time to get out of his own head.

And Call Me in the Morning by slipstream

It’s not like Don is doing this for fun, he reminds himself as the olive-skinned turtle makes up four fresh syringes and starts measuring out doses. He’s his doctor and his brother, he only has Mikey’s best interest at—

He blinks, eyes suddenly fixed on the band of cloth fixed tight to Don’s upper thigh. “Dude, what’s wrong with your leg?”

A Simple Act of Kindness by UlisaBarbic

When the Battle Nexus comes around again, Michelangelo's title of Champion has finally been taken from him but the results are not what anyone expected.

Mutant Nightmare by HamsterMasterSamster

He’s not supposed to be the smart one, but it’s all up to him to place his fists on his hips and dredge up that one repulsive word that’s been gathering bile at the back of his throat ever since he woke up choking on a scream.

“Bishop.”

Post-S3 Worlds Collide canon filler.

2k7

we’ve been here all along by taizi

“Don’t call him, Casey, please. Don't—he’s always so busy, I don’t want to bother him.”

“What are you—wait, is that why you came here, instead of home? You thought you’d bother him? Mikey, you got shot.”

“Leo’s gone,” the kid said, so frankly it took Casey by surprise. “Raph’s never around. All that’s left is Donnie, and if I…. I don’t want to mess it up, I don’t want to make him leave, too. Please don’t call him. I need him to stay.”

2k12

Powerful Motivators by LeanMeanGreenTeam (stresselephant)

The team run into some trouble upon discovering another Kraang base after they take back New York. The turtles learn that when his family is on the line, Mikey always pulls through. April also learns that on the path to becoming a kunoichi, one must be patient with themselves.

In Your Mind by fireworksinthenight

Leo's attempt at perfecting his healing skills has an unexpected result, and now he relies on Mikey to help him - preferably before their whole family gets destroyed.

Devil took your hand by moogsthewriter, taizi

Michelangelo gets ambushed; the Shredder gets another chance to test his mind control serum. Surprisingly- unfortunately- it works better than anticipated.

2k14/2k16

Family Matters by FoxGlade

Blood loss and adrenaline crashes are no small thing. April goes to check on the turtles and gets a small insight into how the family works.

2k18

A Pancake Party by SimplyUnknown

In order to make Michelangelo's 13th birthday a success, everything has to be perfect. Donnie is a master of science, and baking is science, right? How hard can whipping up a few pancakes be? 

The T Subjects by buttsbeyondbutts

Mikey and Don face their worst fears when they're separated from their brothers by ruthless scientists.

brothers = den mothers by Werepirechick

“Just ‘cause you’re bad at cards don’t mean I’m cheating.”

“Lemme see and then I’ll believe you.”

“No.”

“Then you so are cheating-”

A distant sound of something exploding echoes through the walls, and they both go still. Nothing else explodes after a few beats, and Raph and Leo exchange looks.

“Wanna bet that was a Donnie related explosion?” Leo says.

Crossovers

Four-Way Meeting by staringatstars

A mishap results in the turtles being separated from each other, with no one to turn to except other versions of themselves.

[purble-turble]

Some sketches inspired by the fanfiction Donatello x2 by Werepirechick

Just read this story this past week and it’s freakin hilarious! I love the trope of a character getting split into different aspects of themself, and this story does a great job of it with Donnie! I love totally love the dark version of him. He’s not evil, just very morally ambiguous! Lol

[arrival-layne]

Jim Whump/Angst Promps for my soul:

I am that bich that loves to see my favorite characters suffer. But the overwhelming potential that ‘tales of arcadia’ has (especially trollhunters) for good whump fics/art/edits is *chefs kiss* immaculate.

Jim gets beat to hell a lot during TOA but because the show is targeted towards a younger audience, censoring must be put in place.

(Whumps are not for everyone. Proceed with caution)

Edits/art of Jim and the trollhunting team with accurate injuries (Bruises, blood, scrapes, broken/bruised ribs, cuts, etc)

Barbara ain’t no fool and mentions at one point in the series that Jim comes home with bruises, etc. Jim trying to hide his injuries from his mother who is a doctor. is ugh, so good.

Especially if say she were to hug him after he had come home particularly late, relieved to see her son. And did so just a little too tight and too quickly. Jim with bruised or even broken ribs crying out so suddenly at the pain.

Hats and scarves to hide the injuries. The trio patching each other up, comforting one another in pain. Jim maybe even knabbing some of his mom’s medical books.

Can you imagine them learning how to do stitches? What are you going to say to the hospital ( or Jim’s mom) once you’ve had one too many visits. Especially if the wound is irregular. or god forbid it has magical properties to it. Would modern medicine even heal such a thing?

How far along is Troll kinds medicine. Do they have anesthesia? numbing agents? Troll culture as we’ve seen can be harsh. Are procedures particularly painful?

We saw what it took to break the spell bond between Strickler and Barbara. Could you imagine Jim going through such a thing. Toby? Claire?

All of them, Jim, flinching hard at sudden movements. PTSD becoming more evident the more they encounter.

Sleep deprivation. Failing grades. Jim having to stand there being scolded by teachers and family, without any of them, at the time, knowing what he’s doing to protect them. What he’s seen.

When Jim defeats Bular and immediately performs for his school. I want that kid as soon as the curtains close to fall to his knees in exhaustion. The pain he must have been feeling the entire time.

One favorite of mine that I didn’t even think of, actually popped up in Adjustments. Jim fearing the armor. Feeling closed in and claustrophobic when it’s on. Desperately trying to claw it off. Knowing danger and horrible things are coming when it’s on.

I’ve also mentioned with some fanart of mine the effects of grave sand and the amulet could have on Jim. “It changes your nature. Some of the changes are… permanent.”

Jim struggling to come to terms how he felt when high on the grave sand. Maybe it felt good. He wanted to hurt them. He felt justified in his anger towards Blinky. etc. What kind of person does that make him?

Jim is the type of person to try and do it all on his own. He wants to protect his friends. his family. He has a hard time remembering it’s okay to lean on his team. I’d imagine he’d keep secrets from them when needed.

He didn’t tell them about Unbecoming. He saw the carnage, the people he loves and care for die. His mother’s last words. Jim felt that fear, the despair of being all alone. He knew what would come if they didn’t win this war. A hard lesson given by Merlin.

Merlin letting that information slip. Jim feeling ashamed he’d ever thought about truly abandoning his duty. That fact that he did. The anger he feels towards Merlin and his job.  His teams anger  that Merlin put him through something like that.

I’ve also mentioned in a previous post, an alternate scene to Jim’s troll transformation. Where merlin’s Manipulation wasn’t enough. And Jim refused to alter himself. Believing in his team.

Merlin knowing this wasn’t going to be enough. The horrible reality of their situation. Merlin is the type to do whatever it takes to ensure a win, even if the methods are questionable. He makes the hard choices, sacrifices his allies.

Merlin dragging Jim up to that bathroom himself. The struggle and the fight while you can hear the running water filling the tub. It would be a dirty fight, cheating and biting. The furniture broken, broken glass on the floor.

That black jar shattering. Merlin being so much stronger. Forcefully shoving Jim under, drowning this kid and making him undergo a change that will be permanent.

Jim desperately clawing and kicking. Screaming and shouting. Fighting it with all his strength.

He loses and watches as he falls and falls. Hearing the furious cries of his friends, his mother as the light above him slowly slips away.

And I can see everyone bounding up those stairs and staring at Merlin as he stands above the tub, soaking wet and ruffed up, face grim as he turns to them. The black in the water fading.

The nightmares. Waking up in a panic. Maybe Jim being physically ill. The bags becoming more prominent under his eyes.

Jim blaming himself for Dral’s death. He can see it in his minds eye over and over again. Not being able to save Vendul. The despair he felt as he saw Nomura drop from his grasp. His desperation to protect people he cares about is so good.

Jim and Strickler arguing about telling Barbara everything. The guilt that eats away at them.

And Jim being HALF TROLL. is my favorite thing. A lot of potential there as well!

I imagine he’d experience dysmorphia. His entire biology and appearance have changed. Again, Adjustments approaches this so well. Werepirechick is a stunning writer.

Because Jim’s body has changed so much, foods, herbs and medicines may affect him differently. Himself and the team might not even consider it. Something that could be safe for trolls may not be for a human. As well as the other way around. 

Jim being delirous/hallucinating. Maybe under a fever, pain, etc? 

There are all kinds of Whump/Hurt and Comfort prompts I want to apply to trollhunters. Jim specifcally because I love hurting my favs.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’m a little sick and twisted. 

Feel free to add on. Or even take these on if you’re interested. I should probably just start a whump blog. 👀

[spectrumscribe]

a post-s1 finale/s2 premiere fanfic, detailing a character study of neurodivergency, ninja magic treated seriously, minor PTSD, and familial love. (@taytei thanks again for helping brainstorm this story!!)

PREVIEW:

They’re all understandably jumpy, the first little while after kicking Shredder’s shiny metal ass. New York itself is jumpy; the rampage of destruction over the course of 48 hours left long, random patterns of ruins. The news hasn’t stopped raving about it, with the internet being even worse- but, hey, if someone wasn’t in the know about what went down, the fearful confusion is natural.

Leo is someone who knows the details, however, which is why he feels irked that an unease hasn’t left him even a week later. His injuries, like the rest of his family’s, have healed enough that he can be reasonably trusted not to keel over in a gutter. The immediate two days following Shredder’s banishment were spent basically living in each other’s pockets; no one had been eager to be alone overly long.

Raph is still feeling like that, even if he won’t admit it outright. His fretful clinginess is part of why Leo is roaming on his own right now; like, of course he loves his big brother, but Raph’s anxiety about abandonment has ratcheted up to an overwhelming level. He just needs some space and a bit of fresh air, then he can head home and let Raph smother him with affection again.

Leo wishes Mikey the best of luck, since their youngest brother is an even bigger target for mother-henning, and Leo and Donnie have both scampered off for alone time tonight.

Alone time which, admittedly, isn’t helping as much as he’d hoped. Leo stops off on a building overlooking a torn-up street; it used to be a string of shops, cafes, and the like, but now it looks like a tornado blew through. The sight of the damage makes him feel a little queasy, silent judgement of his own actions coming to mind not for the first time.

Maybe if he’d been faster, maybe if he’d been cleverer. Maybe if he’d talked Big Mom into a better deal, maybe if he hadn’t squandered so much time making sure everything lined up just so. Then maybe this street and dozens of others wouldn’t be in the state they are.

[seyrashazardousstuff]

Hello teenage mutant ninja turtles fans!! This is the first tmnt art piece that I have the courage to post. Be kind, please :'). These are my interpretation of mikey and leo from the amazing fic "So, I guess... We all have issues" by the talented @onthespectrumwriting also known as Werepirechick on AO3. ( I have no idea how to link the fiction, sorry...). I highly recommend anyone to read it and give all the love and appreciation to the creator, because it's a well thought work that few can accomplish. If you're looking for a heartwarming but mostly heartbreaking story this is for you. I'll post shortly donnie and raph's art pieces. Likes and reblogs are appreciated. BUT DO NOT REPOST, thank you very much :)

[downwiththemutantnjnjaturtles]

Fanfic ask game:

S, T, U, and Z

S: Fandom tropes I can't resist?

None that I can think of currently, but there probably is one/are some I'm not aware of 🤔

T: Fandom tropes I can't stand?

Every human (beside those who are important to the show/plot) who sees the turtles immediately freaks out in total panic. Same reaction most times. Screams, and bonus points if they call them a monster

U: My 3 favorite fic writers and why?

Title of #1 has to go to Werepirechick over on AO3. A lot of TMNT works. The stuff she makes can be odd, but the emotional charge is very visceral

#2: Friggy on AO3 yet again, who is still going strong with their Predator fanfic when the fandom needs it, and also because they encouraged my own fic when no one else did.

#3: I actually am not actively following a lot of fanfic writers, none that I do quite reach my "top 3 (I'm sorry ;-;), so I have to skip out on that one

Z: Do I ever write/read major character death? Any characters who's deaths I can't tolerate?

I haven't written any major character deaths for literally anything because my glass heart can't handle it lmfaooo, but I do read it once in a while if I'm feeling ~extra cathartic~

And as a general rule, I can hardly stomach any of the ninja turtles dying, but I think that goes without saying 👁️👄👁️✨

[nerves-nebula]

Sorry if this is a bad time to ask, but what's the name of the fic?

These Days by werepirechick tho the author has multiple docs that deal with the whole domestic abuse bystander mindset

It’s never a bad time to send an ask :)

[danzinora-switch]

Why is my costume all Cyberpunk?

Well, I've been listening to a lot of cyberpunk/Synthwave music lately.

Why have I been listening to that kind of music?

Because I read Three Days to Live by Werepirechick. Hands down the best Human AU turtles story I've ever read. And also, like, insanely good in general. It needs to be a movie. Seriously, I want to edit amvs to this story.

Welcome to the Singularity, Briar Patches!

[gan-man]

You mentioned that you ship capritello?? Me and my partner's are massive capritello fans and i would absolutely die if you wrote smut for the triad 😍 there is so little content for this ship and im so excited that one of my fav fanfic writers is into it!no pressure tho!!😘Hope you're doing well during these trying times love ya!!! ❤❤❤
