#although its light on the raph centric fics unfortunately

[turtshell]

i have a few (though likely you've already seen them recommended)

Collector - Flynne (my personal favourite 03 fic!)

When Leonardo is abducted on his way home from babysitting Shadow, his family is left without a clue as to who could have taken him, or where he might be. Tested in body and spirit, chances for Leo's survival look bleak. But the turtles have made friends and allies over the years, and help comes from an unexpected source, giving them the chance to try and rescue their brother before it's too late.

And Call Me in the Morning - 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?”

The Nothing - T33la

Everything is fine for Leo and his brothers. Things are really normal. And then, one day, things are not normal at all. Or, rather, they're normal for everyone else, but Leo knows that, piece by piece, reality is going missing.

-------------------------------------------------

Leo mashed the heels of his hands against his eyes and leaned his head into the old rat’s shoulder. He struggled to control his breath as a wave of fear crashed into him. What was wrong with him? What was happening to him?

Splinter wrapped his arms around Leonardo, holding his son and whispering consoling words. “It will be alright, young one. There is nothing to fear.”

But Leonardo could hear the thread of doubt in his father’s voice.

Promises, Promises - LunaD

There was a stillness in the air, a thick atmosphere of uncertainty choking out any other thoughts other than the singular question plaguing each brother. Where the shell was Don?

When Donatello goes missing, his brothers set out to search for him, unaware that they are racing against the clock for their brother's life.

The Afterward - halogalopaghost

Donnie's family have managed to get a cure for his double-mutation brought on by Bishop's outbreak virus, but he isn't out of the woods yet. The detransformation process is stalling, and now it's all the boys can do to keep Donatello alive long enough to figure out why.

Champion - ceraxxxx

They gotta be here somewhere. They have to be, they wouldn't miss this.

As the final of the Battle Nexus Tournament approaches, Mikey wants nothing more than to see his family in the audience, cheering him on towards what might be the single greatest moment of his life.

So what happens when he realizes that no one's there?

Based on the 'Big Brawl'-arc.

Underdark - Nekotsuki

(i almost hesitate to add this because i think it's on every rec list and everyone has read it but just in case-)

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.

I'm looking for some really good Hurt/Comfort, maybe a little angst, TMNT 2003 stories! Does anyone have suggestions for me?

(Any tcest suggestions can and will be ignored)
