#and also mikey is probably the only one that can get away with yelling around him LOL

[qoldenskies]

Yes, ever since I've found your Tumblr, I've pretty much stopped making comments on ao3 since it's kind of easier to get my thoughts out on here. But I'll most likely have something special to say in the last chapter. Anyway.

I'm glad we got to unpack the whole "Splinter screwed up" thing this chapter. And I'm starting to notice that no matter what Donnie is going through, as soon as he sees anyone in any pain, he puts aside everything to comfort them. Yeah, usually it isn't for good reasons. But because of Mikey, he gained the courage to walk with Raph all the way over to Mikey's room, let him hug him, stayed in his vicinity despite him literally yelling and crying right in his face, and even brought up the curse and an old memory of Splinter and how he was in the wrong (yeah Donnie they were in the wrong!!) but he forgave him-

Like, even if this interaction isn't perfect, I still think there was some noticeable improvement! He even giggled despite himself! My baby even brought Raph back to the lab and rebuilt Sheldon and told him how Raph wasn't the same and wanted him to know that he was safe.

Like, oh my god, qolden. As soon as the scene came up where Mikey and April were painting in the laundry room, I literally smiled so wide because yesYES. That is exactly what they would do. It's perfect. Make it a safe space! Paint murals in there! Put fairy lights on the walls! Put carpet in there! Make it a safe haven! Because I think there will be unavoidable times when he returns to the laundry room during an episode. So, I don't know, maybe if they decorated it and made it less of a sensory nightmare, that it could actually become somewhat of a peaceful place for Donnie for whenever he believes he might need one.

it was established very early on in CL that while donnie's facade was (obviously) bs, he did actually struggle quite a bit with being emotionally unavailable-- he criticizes and works on himself in private and denies it later. he seems unsure of how to properly apologize. being shouted at or accepting he's in the wrong in front of people is a struggle-- leo's "you could at least pretend to care" (something he says a variation of a few times in CL) is direct criticism of this trait because of course he would find that frustrating while cursed. when it came down to it before, leo was very patient with him because he understood how to communicate on donnie's level. even if he wasn't always able to put up with him he knew how to give him time.

but also in CL its made very apparent donnie was trying to work on it, and they exploited and took advantage of what was currently an open wound in that regard. witch town was a huge blow to his perception and ego, and april's understanding and straightforward push for him to communicate kind of turned his perception of all of it on its head. things like his fight with shelldon, too-- they stuck with him, and that left him open to being hurt. donnie is low empathy and he feels like he's imitating their behavior in order to be more open quite often, which means it was so easy to convince him he was being disingenuous.

now in the fallout of everything, donnie will still struggle to understand and comprehend other people's feelings, but he's desperate to stop them from being upset. usually he would just kind of excuse himself when things got too emotional because the energy was oppressive and he would be frustrated with himself, especially if they reacted poorly to any faux-empathy he tried to provide. (and he did care! he hated seeing them upset! he just didn't know how to make it better!)

all of the fawning and people-pleasing is really bad now basically, which means he will be extremely tolerant and consoling when they're upset, even to his own detriment (it makes him actively uncomfortable and sometimes even afraid, but he's overcorrected himself and is desperately trying to prioritize other people). it wasn't put in the foreground of the scene with mikey but he was genuinely frustrated because he does feel responsible for mikey being so hurt, just because people being upset on his behalf and sticking up for him is ,,, uncomfortable. he went for months without that, and even when he's working past blaming himself he's terrified of others blaming them, too. one of his most confident moments in cw was him shutting off shelldon's weapons when he tried to turn them on raph, and there's a reason for that.

Just Too Sweet

Synopsis- You were such an angel, always the good girl, however you had a tendency to hangout with the “bad kids” in school. Your close friends, Emma and Mikey, have always been there for you as is the rest of the gang so it’s only natural you hangout at their house often. No one said you would be falling in love with your friend’s older brother.

Inspired by “Too Sweet” by Hozier, because it plagues my mind daily but I love it!

TW: Age gap, best friend’s brother trope, kinda angst I guess, ambiguous ending, reader wants Shin but he doesn’t wanna corrupt her life, I think that’s it sorry if this is kinda rusty lol x3 proof read but also not lmfao

It was a normal morning after sleeping over your friend Emma’s house, you’ve been around her and her brothers since childhood. You tend to wake up after Emma but she stays to herself in bed before she has to make breakfast so you venture out in hopes to help your friend set up the kitchen.

Shin’s awake and already chilling in the living room when y/n gets there. “You’re quite the early bird today” she says not knowing that in truth he hadn’t slept hardly at all last night.

He replies with a soft smile and small chuckle “yeah, well the guys and I were out late at Wakasas’ apartment.”

Y/n looks at the older boy knowing now that him being out late meant he probably didn’t sleep a wink. She scolds him, explaining how he needs to take better care of himself and try to get some sleep every once in a while.

Shin always appreciates your worry for his health, you take good care of yourself from your hair to your clothes and especially that oh so sweet innocence in your eyes. He prays no one takes that away from you

After breakfast you head to Emma’s room to get your clothes on for the day. Mikey, Emma, and friends call you from outside to see if you’re ready. “Stop flirting with Shin and get your butt out here already!” Senju yells. Y/n blushes, not like they both didn’t realize that there was SOMETHING between them that was a little different from just being the older brother and you being his siblings’ friend.

Y/n rushes out the door waving and shouting a “see ya ‘round! Please make sure to eat and drink water!!” before closing the door behind her. Now Shin is left to his thoughts again, the ones he loves and loathes at the same time.

A couple days later you’re all at Mikey’s again planning to go out to some arcade. Everyone is laughing and chatting. Shinichiro is lounging on the sofa again, staring unabashedly at y/n. Thoughts race through his mind about how stunning she is when she throws her head back in laughter, that sweet smile gracing her tender features. Now Shinichiro has had his eyes on a plethora of women before, which he has had no such luck with at all, but y/n…she was so perfect. So perfect in fact that he even knew her parents thought highly of her, so much so that he knows for a fact that they would certainly not approve of an older man whom also used to run a large biker gang as her lover.

His thoughts are pulled away by loud knocking resonating through the living room. As he strides to the front door he can feel y/n’s eyes on him-even for just a moment-and he’s frozen, hand on the doorknob, as if in a spell.

Shinichiro finally opens the door to allow his friends inside. Benkei and Wakasa giving each other knowing glances once they see Mikey and ALL of his friends, especially the sweet, curly headed girl sat by the glass doors to the backyard; it’s as if the sun’s rays highlighter her innocence.

It’s late by the time y/n comes back with Mikey, Emma, Draken, and Senju. Everyone decides to spend the night again at the Sanos’ and they soon head to their respective rooms.

Shin and his friends are all in the garage talking while smoking or having a drink.

Takeomi blows out a puff of smoke,”I know something’s on your mind man, you only drink that stuff when your mind is in a fog.” All eyes are on the two brunette boys now, waiting to see how they respond to each other. Takeomi is the first to speak again, “so where’s that little bunny you’ve been eyeing?”

Shin closes his eyes before twirling around his glass of whisky, “I let her go.” He looks up at ceiling, “there’s no way I deserve something as sweet as her, no matter how badly I want her.”

Wakasa blows smoke off to the side then looks up at his friend from his seat on the floor, “then why’s she heading this way with your little brother?”

Shinichiro looks out the window to see y/n, bewilderment in his eyes, as she races toward him like a bride to her groom. Are the two willing to take the risk? Surprising himself, he stands, placing his empty whiskey cup down and heads toward the door, swinging it open to let the younger girl into his embrace with open arms. It was just so natural to him. Like it was everything he ever wanted.

~wanted to thank @i-literally-cant-with-this for letting me ask for a proof read of the outline for this :) thanks babes!~

[gh0stsp1d3r]

And here is the other Carmy one!

Can I please request a fic where Carmy and Sugar have a younger sister, who is around 15 or something, running away and just showing up at Carmy’s doorstep, imagine him coming home to his apartment and seeing his lil sister asleep on her tiny backpack that she brought and he’s just like, “Y/n????” Carmy calling their Mom to let her know that Y/n’s at his apartment, his sister literally clinging to him and begging him not to send her back to their mother. Their mom giving the okay for her to stay with him, and Carmy looking at Y/n’s puppy dog eyes and agreeing. Omg ALSO him letting her work at the restaurant!!!!! Something that he always wished Mikey would’ve let him do!! UGH HIM PRETTY MUCH MENTORING HER AND GUIDING HER IN COOKING. Y/n following behind him like a lil lost pup. Her kinda being an assistant to her big brother!! He’d make sure she gets to school safely and I feel like he’d make sure she’s getting whatever she needs at school!! The staff taking care of her too like she’s one of their own, showing up to events at school, helping with homework, etc. Especially since Carm struggled in school, he doesn’t want the same thing to happen to her. Sugar may feel a littleeee offended that Y/n chose to go to Carmy instead of her, Y/n just has a special relationship with her brother and really looks up to him (probably wanting to be a chef like he is) 🤧 The staff being so fond of her and taking care of her

𝒴ℴ𝓊 𝒸𝒶𝓃 𝓈𝓉𝒶𝓎

A/n- I love this so so much! so sorry this took a little I’ve been on a bit of a break. This is a lil short but im just trying to get back into the groove of writing ): im working on the other reqs too!

Throwing everything you could fit into your bag, you glanced around the room once more. You never wanted to come back here.

Now where you would go? You didn’t know.

You wandered around the streets for a little, getting some food and once it hit 9 pm, you knew you had to go somewhere.

You found your feet padding against the stairs up to his apartment, remembering his address by heart.

“If you need anything, I’m always here, alright?” Were the words that rang in your head everyday ever since the funeral. Every time she yelled or asked you for a drink, you thought back to your brother.

He had given you a little slip on paper with his address on it, the numbers written quickly and sloppily. You kept it ever since.

You raised your fist, rapping on the door. When there was no answer, you did again. He wasn’t home you soon realized.

You sighed, putting your pillow that was underneath your arm onto the floor, knowing it could be a little until he was back. You ended up falling asleep on the floor.

And later, you woke up to a voice.

“Jesus…” he mumbled, your eyes slowly fluttering open.

“Hey, y/n.” He said quietly, “c’mon, get off the ground.” He held a hand out for you, you wiped the sleep from your eyes and grabbed his hand.

“Carmy.” You murmured sleepily, he chuckled quietly and began to unlock the door. You followed him into his apartment.

“What are you doing, y/n?” He asked you, motioning for you to sit down on the couch next to him as he got a glass of water.

“I… ran away.” You admitted, taking the glass.

His eyes widened, he stayed silent for a while until he spoke up again.

“Why’d you come here?”

“It’s the only other place I had to go.” You shrugged, looking at him with pleading eyes.

“Fuck… okay, let me…” he pulled out his phone.

“Wait, don’t make me go back. Please, don’t.”

“I’m just gonna let her know you’re here. I’m not sending you back.”

He went to the other side of the house, quietly talking to her.

He glanced back up at you, looking at your eyes and sighing when he put the phone down.

“You can stay here. Just until-“ he spoke, walking over. But he was cut off when you ran over and wrapped your arms around him, thanking him multiple times.

His hand was on the back of your head as he looked up at the ceiling.

———-

“Don’t be nervous. They’ll love you.” He said, he entered the room, seeing everyone sitting down at the table.

“Hey, everyone.” He greeted them all, you standing awkwardly behind him.

“Y/n?!” Sugar practically shouted when she saw you. She ran up, giving you a tight hug.

“Is that the shrimp?” Richie asked, standing up to get a good look at you now.

“Hey, guys.” You said to them both.

“I haven’t seen you in a while, how’ve you been?” He asked, giving you a hug as well.

“Oh my God! I missed you, what are you doing here?” She continued. You gave her a smile and looked at Carmy.

“Uhm, everyone, this is y/n. My sister.” He motioned to you. “She’s gonna be working here from now on.”

A bunch of people started talking at once, all greeting you.

“Wait, seriously?” Sugar asks him. He nodded.

“I.. ran away.” You told sugar and Richie. They both stayed silent for a moment.

“You chose to stay with him?” Sugar asked you, cracking a small smile again.

“Yeah. Sorry. I don’t know your address.” You told her.

She just smiled and gave you another hug.

“The foods gonna get cold,” Carmy said, nodding towards the table with a small smile. You sat in an empty chair next to Carmy.

The next weeks were the best, you felt more free than ever now. You learned how to cook better, and Carmy was more patient with you than he was with the others.

You seemed happier, and that was all that mattered to him.

You were a part of their family now.

How would Ryusei, Akkun, Mitsuya and Mikey react to their partner taking a knife for them

Sure! Here's how I think the four of them would react!

Ryusei-

"Huh!?" Isn't entirely sure what just happened, one minute he's messing around and toying with a guy while fighting him and the next you're bleeding in his arms. It was just so quick.

He can vaguely here Kojiro in the background, beating the guy up, hitting him over and over for you. But he focuses on you, he tries talking to you and getting you to talk back.

Is more shocked then worried at first, I mean he was stabbed and ended up fine so you will be too right??? Right???

Once he notices all the blood and your unresponsiveness, his whole demeanour changes though. He still tries to smile and crack jokes with you but he's also crying and it's clear the smiles are fake.

Doesn't remember calling the ambulance but vaguely knows he did.

Tries to stay positive in the waiting room but everyone around him can see the anxiety in his eyes and how he won't stop fidgeting.

When you wake up he's so happy to see you! Can't stop grinning and lightly touching you with hugs and hand holding. He also makes a joke that Kojiro nearly cried because he was so scared which makes Kojiro yell it was actually Ryusei who cried!

Akkun

The second he's sees you get stabbed he jumps into action, he knows he probably can't physically beat the guy to get him away and make sure he doesn't stab you again. So he does the only thing he can think of, he practically dives on top of you, covering your body with his so he'll take any other attacks.

Luckily nothing comes though since his friends jump in to help out. Akkun gets off of you slowly, he's almost too afraid to look, too afraid that you'll already be gone.

Breathes a sigh of relief when he sees you're still breathing, immediately calls the ambulance and is very informative with them.

He does his best to stay calm the whole time, takes deep breaths as he desperately tries to stop the bleeding. He can't save you if he loses his head.

Says nothing in the waiting room, the stress has made him too tired, instead he just sits there, leaning forward with his head in his hands as he waits.

Tries to stay calm when he sees you too, doesn't want you to get stressed but he still ends up crying tears of joy as he sees that you're ok.

Mitsuya

Yells your name so loudly that everyone around stops what they're doing to turn and look.

He's never moved as fast in his life to get to you. Doesn't pay any attention to the guy aside from casually punching him to the side. He knows Draken's right on his back and will happily take care of the guy for him.

He seems totally frantic as he leans over you, calling your name but his actions are always very gentle. Carefully moving clothing so he can see the wound and apologising to you before applying pressure.

He knows you're unresponsive right now but hopes you can still somehow hear him, he tries to tell you that everything will be ok, that he's got you.

Practically begs the paramedics to save you, telling them he can't lose you.

While in the waiting room, he blames himself a lot. Thinking he should've been faster or that you never should've been targeted because of him in the first place.

He hugs you tightly after you wake up and asks you to promise you'll never do that again. Immediately begins fussing over you after, asking how you feel or if you need anything.

Mikey

His eyes widen as he calls your name softly, almost like he's unsure that you're not just joking with him.

But that changes as soon as you hit the floor, he then charges at the guy hitting him and kicking him until Draken manages to pull him off and direct him over to you.

Mikey assumed the worst, the worst seemed to happen so often in those other timelines so was he just a fool to think it wouldn't happen here too?

But you're still breathing, he still has a chance. Mikey clumsily takes his own jacket off, pressing it to your wound. He just hopes he's doing this right

Talks to you the whole time, telling you how much he loves you and how you can't leave him yet. In his panic and desperation he even proposes, saying he's been wanting to bring it up for awhile now.

Strokes your hair in the ambulance

Openly gets a bit teary eyed in the waiting room but tries to stay positive for you.

Full on cries when he sees you're awake, hugging you and refusing to let go. He basically refuses to leave your bed. He's just so relieved.

The lore continues!!

Karai and Mikey follow close behind April as she leads them to where she believes Leo is.

Mikey starts feeling nauseous at the fact that it’s so close to where he went missing.

“He’s been right here the whole time…..maybe if we had looked harder….I should have talked to my Gram-Gram! I wasted time!”

“You can open portals to your world? Why haven’t you done that already?” Karai questions.

Mikey looks down at the light coloring cracked across his arms. He knows fully well why he couldn’t do that specifically. He also knows that this Karai doesn’t realize he doesn’t mean that.

“It….it could kill me. Again.”

Karai’s brows furrow heavily.

“Excuse me?”

Mikey glances away awkwardly.

“L-Let’s just ignore that, for now. I’ll get the door open.”

“Just be careful, that hand could be anywhere.” April warns.

Mikey nods, summoning his chains as a precaution. He takes several steps towards the door April assures is the right one.

That’s when everyone notices the hand skittering across the floor nearby.

Mikey’s chain shoots out immediately and wraps tightly around it. He brings it over, allowing it to dangle in the air like meat on a hook. His eyes widen he sees that it’s holding something other than spores.

“That’s……Leo’s. You took his fidget toy. It….it was in his fanny pack. You’re the one who took the mushrooms. You made Leo think it was his fault.”

Karai senses the change in the air.

“Mikey! As much as you want your revenge, you must keep yourself from giving it what it wants.”

Mikey tightens his chains even further around the hand, eyes beginning to fill with orange light.

“What it wants? What about what we want? W-We could have had a fun time meeting other people, we could have finally relaxed for a little while! But we had to keep the spores alive and with us! Then this thing stole them and my brother! I-It’s not fair! What did we ever do to deserve this!?” He starts tearing up.

“You don’t deserve this! It’s not your fault, it’s that thing’s!” April insists.

Mikey’s chains start pulling on different parts of the hand.

“Then I’ll make sure it can never hurt us ever again!”

Although Karai and April are both all for this, something seems wrong. The hand always has too many tricks up its nonexistent sleeve.

That’s when April hears a click and release noise.

“Mikey! It’s a trap!”

Mikey snaps his attention to her and Karai before shoving them away with more chains. The two of them only have time to yell before spores explode in front of the door.

The distance and chains protect them, but Mikey is caught right in the majority of the blast.

He nearly coughs up a lung from how much he breathes in. Despite how bad this is he knows he needs to get to Leo. Keeping the chains around the hand, he tries to make his way to the door.

When his hands touch something solid he musters up all his strength and smashes his way through. This causes the spores that were trapped in the room to come out as well.

Mikey powers through anyways.

“Leo! Leo! Can you hear me!? I’m here!”

He soon finally sees a figure in the middle of all the thick particles in the air and rushes forward. Leo is there, laying on the ground.

He is not breathing.

Mikey takes his own deep breath.

“Y-You are alive, th-this is just th-the fear spores. I-I’ll get you out now, o-okay?” He doesn’t wait for an answer before picking up his brother.

He carefully makes his way back outside and to where Karai and April should be. Mikey knows they’re probably safe, but doubt creeps up into his mind when he sees them both sprawled out on the floor.

More tears come to his eyes.

“J-Just remember this isn’t real. Y-You’re seeing things. I-It’ll pass. G-Gram-Gram? April? Can you tell me everyone is okay?”

No answer.

Mikey can’t help but stare hard at the alternative Gram-Gram. She was just as nice and gentle and full of wisdom as his Gram-Gram. It stung a little bit that she couldn’t be alive in his universe too.

“P-Please just tell me that you’re okay. Th-That Leo isn’t…..that we saved Leo….”

Still no answer.

The body in front of him is tearing him apart inside. Karai is dead, not fully gone, but dead. Their lack of training killed her. They brought her out from the Twilight Realm and killed her. They released Shredder and killed her.

Did he….get this one killed too?

He shakes his head violently.

No! Stop being stupid already! You know this is fake! You can’t trust anything right now! Fight it!

“Leonardo has made his sacrifice like Hamato before him.”

Mikey shakily, slowly turns his head to the side.

Gram-Gram.

His Gram-Gram.

“No. She wouldn’t say that.” Mikey chokes out.

“I’m sorry, Michelangelo. He’s with us now. The other Karai and April are most likely with their world’s Hamato ancestors as well.”

“Stop it. Stop using her voice!”

“I wish I could tell you it isn’t true. I wish it had ended differently-“

Mikey punches her, breathing heavily.

He’s feeling the worst sense of déjà vu. He was losing it when he first got spored too. Back then he was scared and that made him force his family to confront everything.

He needs to calm down or else everything is going to fall apart again.

This isn’t him! He’s Dr. Positive! He cheers other people up and stops them from fighting!

Just breathe, breathe and move on.

“Mi….key….”

He quickly looks down.

“Leo! You are alive! Ohmigosh, I was so worried!”

“Too….late….”

“Wh-What?”

“R-Run…”

“No no no no, it’s not too late! I can help! I’ll fix you! Just like Donnie always does!”

Mikey holds Leo close and attempts to use his ninpo on him.

It’s not working.

At all.

“I-It….got Raph and Donnie too….s-save yourself, Mikey.”

Mikey stills.

“You’re lying. This isn’t real. G-Gram-Gram and April are going to snap me out of this.“

“I-It’s up to you, dad and April now. B-Be the coolest ninja you can be, Mikey.”

“Stop. Stop it. You��.you freaky, creepy, dumb hand! You stupid spores! I’m not scared! I handled this! So stop already!”

Leo’s hand drops to his side and his eyes glaze over.

“I-I said….stop….” Mikey starts trembling.

Last time he was getting this way, he was just afraid of his brothers leaving.

Them dying is a whole other issue.

You can’t bring back someone from dying fully.

He doesn’t want to have to summon them.

They won’t be able to do all the things they said they’d do after they were fully healed up.

After this competition.

They lost, didn’t they?

So why are they even still here!?

Still suffering like this!?

If something brought them here then it should be responsible for fixing this! For bringing them home!

It’s not fair it’s not fair it’s not fair it’s not fair it’s not fair…..

Not fair.

Not fair!

“NOT FAIR!” He screams.

His lungs further get agitated by everything in the air, causing his cough to return viciously. It gets so bad that he has to place Leo on the ground and cover his mouth with his hands.

When he moves them away, there’s glowing, orange ninpo on them.

It’s not normal, though.

It feels like sludge.

Is…..is he dying?

The spores can do that?

They….they really killed everyone….?

Mikey starts chuckling.

Mikey starts laughing.

Mikey laughs too hard.

He stands up.

If this is how he’s going to go, then he’s going to take everything with him.

The hand watches once again from afar.

This too, is increasingly entertaining.

Watching Karai and April see the entire made it the real cherry on top.

The turtles that came from the same universe as the spores thought the worst case scenario was seeing and living through their fears.

They were so wrong.

What is truly, truly the most terrifying is knowing that enough fear can turn you into something you’re not.

Two down, two to go.

[ninnosaurus]

18 with Bay!Raph, please? Because the world needs more Raph angst in it 😊

YEAH YEAH SURE LETS GOOOO i wrote this at work teehee 🤭

18. "Can't you see?" Warnings: Brief mention of suicide. Angst. Shitty grammar, I guess?

All you remember from that day is that it was raining. How cliché, right? It was like the sky also wept for him. For… you? I had never been that heavy, climbing to the rooftop on that night. The rooftop where you met him the first time. Where he… saved you. You had been ready to close that final chapter of your life, but instead; he decided it was time to start a new one. 

That was months ago now, close to a year, actually. No one you knew knew about him. And you doubted it would be accepted. You couldn’t deal with the thought of telling people about him. It would put him, and his family, in danger. And it broke you knowing what you had to do.

You saw him sitting on the ledge of the roof, under a makeshift cover from the rain he most likely put up himself. A massive, hulking figure. Scary to anyone who would come across him in the dark. He’d scared you too, that one time. But not anymore. Now, your stomach makes back flips every time you see him. Now, when he speaks it makes you warm. His voice is like a warm blanket during snow storms.

But tonight, he and his presence brought sorrow to you as you stood behind him. 

Raph turned around when he heard you scrape across the roof. “Hey, shortstuff.”

Internally you begged him not to look at you like that. Green eyes swirling with complex emotions and thoughts and feelings.

“You need to leave.”

A voice so cold and devoid of everything you saw in his eyes surprised you. You almost didn’t recognize it as your own.

“What? Why?”

He moved to stand up. To reach for you. He probably noticed the change in your voice, in your vibe. He’s good like that. Mikey was never the only one good at noticing details like that. But you moved away from him. 

“Because…”

Being gentle wouldn’t work with him. You can’t- you can’t sugar coat things if you need him to leave. To leave and to never come back to you. The words tastes like poison when they come out of you;

“Because you’re a monster!”

You saw his arm lowering, stopping at his side. And that’s when you made something you would regret more than telling him this, you looked at him. Raph looked broken. He didn’t look… angry. “Broken” was the best way to describe him. Broken, like a vase someone had knocked over, or a mirror found in an abandoned mansion. 

“...you don’t mean that.” 

You didn’t. It was the opposite. He’d quickly become your everything. You loved him. But… you could never be. This wasn’t a world for beings like him, and even less for him to be with you. Because this world wasn’t kind to anything different. You knew that. This was for his sake. To save him. 

“Just go. You don’t- You don’t belong… here.”

“But-”

Dodge him! Don’t let him embrace you!

“No! You- you don’t belong with humans! You- you should stay in the sewers!”

He doesn’t even budge when you shove at him. Solid as a brick wall. Hands trained to hurt. Arms- arms made to-.

“Did I… Did I do somethin’ wrong?”

Please, just fucking stop. Just go. I can’t be with you! No matter how much I want to

“Jesus christ, Raph! Can’t you see?! Open your fucking eyes!”

Your voice starts to waver. A crack somewhere in it that feels just like the thunder in the distance sounds like.

Get it together

“We can never be together! Just- just look at me! And- and look at what you are!”

A dagger straight into his heart, serrated, slowly twisting around.

He’s quiet. That was the thing that brought you two together, you could connect in that way. Anger and fury shielding yourselves from harm and emotional hurt. When he came to you to vent about Leo, you stayed quiet. Letting him scream, and yell, and swear and cuss. You knew it was never directed at you.

But this time, when he stayed quiet; It scared you. It broke and it hurt. Like salt into an already open wound. 

“So… All you said…?”

You meant every word! Please don’t leave me…

You faked a scoff, tried your best to pull off an amazing performance.

“I can’t believe you’re so dense that you believed all of that?! You really think I would ever- that- I-... that.”

He never said anything after that. Just looked at you one last time before jumping off the roof. Those green eyes you had fallen in love with, the ones that could contain a magical forest were dark. The forest had been burned to a crisp by the vicious fire you had started.

Here's some tags of people I like and that has really inspired me to get back into writing <3 @thelaundrybitch @the-cauldron-witch @theyhavetakenovermylife @turtlecleric

[carmenized-onions]

okay am i insane, probably, but hear me OUT!! yk i am yelling for that squidink spinoff (LETS GO LESBIANS (bi actually)) but a richip au/spinoff/something??? you cooked a bit - a lot - with that vision. like again HEAR ME OUT. i LIVE for platonic richip, my fave besties!!! but also chip being planned for richie makes so much sense??? and also after his speech to david (blegh) ‘I WOULD BE SO LUCKY’ (he has her number memorized!! her biggest defender!!her guard dog!!) how can they not smooch?? at least in one universe?? and also chip is the best and coolest aunt to eva, so imagine chip as a step mom?? and chip thinking her and richie weren’t friends (/only friends by circumstance) when in fact he was fucking fighting for her the whole time and then years later their friendship evolves into something more??? i love a friends to lovers what can i say, and richip would be PEAK, devour the dynamic in fact.

also for shits and giggles imagine MIKEY’s reaction to canon richip (yes you’re the canon actually😌). like either if mikey is rip, then imagine richip joking about what his reaction would be (which is sweet but sad at the same time) or if he’s alive yay!! then MAN would he have some thoughts!!

(also richip in the mikey era would be so cool to see because being in that era is so interesting but i don’t think there’s any way around what mikey was going through so i can’t really see richip happening organically during that time cause they were both hauling ass to keep mikey alive)

SO I GUESS WHAT IM SAYING IS WE NEED FUCKING RICHIP AS WELL

is this just my sneaky way of making you write more for the bear because we need every pairing cause you’re the best one out there and no one else can compare (in my eyes)??perchance, a smidge

I HONESTLY LOVE TO HEAR THIS HAHA, oops all romance for everyone !!!

RiChip dynamic is so fun to me, I think I've said before but I'm nothing if not a parrot of myself--- they are just so everything to each other, yknow? Like thats my road dog that's my best friend that's my work husband but maybe my real husband but also my cousin but not in a weird way but also my dad but also my estranged other half

yknow?

it's so far away in my brain now, but i remember my whole idea with 'Handyman and Richie' started out not even as her being this integral past but actually just a called in handyman that is really the ONLY ONE that notices how hard richie works, and how much shit he STILL gets despite growing so much; like, the scene from Just Dropped in the parking lot was the FIRST scene i thought of, in this series, but as Richie/Chip's like ooo la la sparks fly i see you omg let's kiss, type beat. when he death grip hugs? that was the smooch moment!

they were gonna be a very messy almost friends with benefits basically (but the benefits are that she can fix his broken shit). they were SO casual by chappell roan core. in the end i am happy where i landed with carmen, but just fun behind the scenes facts, ig

but anyways, i think in CK, because of Richie and also even Syd being my first ideas for a romance, i truly can't help but put a sprinkle of tension in everything. a dash, perhaps. I should make a compilation of Richie Chip moments for myself. I love them dearly.

OH. fun fact, on the topic of the David speech; little piece of CK canon that, i should probably maybe write a blurb for at some point: Richie has her number memorized because she's his emergency contact!

I think initially it was probably Tif, then Mikey, then Donna. And then post Mikey, Tif and Chip, and post BAD NEWS, just Chip.

And a lil extra bit: 100% when he went to jail, he was highly considering calling Chip, but figured, probably NOT the best way to reintroduce himself. ugh. i just think it's a fun parralel to syd, who also called when shit went sideways

i need to stop yapping it's past mid night but truly now i gotta consider the ramifications of mikey's feelings about Chip and Richie. I am so unsure.

I think he'd just be like oh of fucking course. But with his whole shipping of Carmen and Chip, I think he'd be tastefully bitchy about it, honestly. I imagine Mikey'd probably off-handedly mention her fitting Carmen well, and Richie would have to debate either going "haha,,,, yeahh,,,,, for surrreeeeee maannnnn" or telling him TO "LAY AWF THAT'S MY BROAD", those were his playful misogyny days, so. lil bit probably.

anyways. gotta go ruminate on this some more. richie and chip are fun. the man really knows how to express his gratitude for her, and i think that's what gets y'all ABSOLUTE HORN DOGS the most riled up. praise kink?

CHAPTER 25 - Grieving Cadence

The room burst with chaotic energy in a matter of milliseconds as Leo ran into the dojo to grab his twin katanas. For a normal person, such a stressful situation would leave the barer with a scrambled mind, floundering through the room and tripping over themselves as they try to process what just happened.

But Leo has never been normal. His eyes remained focused as his feet ran with purpose and will. His expression had gone into full ‘ Leader Mode ‘, leaving behind any traces of ‘ teenager ‘. His ‘oldest brother’ side still shone brightly, but it mirrored the image of a stoplight; Flashing and pulsing with warnings of danger, and no warmth in its vibrant hue.

When Leo sprinted back into the Living Room, Mikey could see the panic shrinking his pupils. The eldest was still very much aware of his surroundings, and was even still forcing a steady heartbeat. But his eyes gave away the facade the leader always carried.

Without thinking, Mikey flung the afghan off his legs and pushed himself off the couch, dropping the bag of frozen broccoli to the floor with a crunch.

He made it about two steps before the adrenaline rushing through his body slightly dissipated, allowing a tightening pressure coiling around his right ankle like a boa constrictor squeezing its prey. With a piercing screech, the youngest fell onto the floor holding his leg tightly to his chest.

Well…. That was stupid. He mentally groaned.

“ MICHELANGELO HANTEN! “ Yelled the leader, whom was quickly rushing up to the side of his once again fallen brother.

Ok…. Now I’m dead.

Leo grabbed Mikey’s shoulders and raised him up off the floor, then slid his arm around the youngest’s waist while leading him back to the couch.

“ Mikey I don’t have time for this- “ the leader rushed, nearly dropping Mikey haphazardly onto the cushions, “Just… Just stay here- I’ll be back as soon as I can- “

“ - No way, dude! You are not leavin’ me here like some cripple- I’m coming with. They’re my brothers too! “

To enforce his statement, Mikey pulled off the afghan Leo just placed back on his legs, and began sliding off the cushions again. This action was met with a silent but DEADLY whack from his brother’s calloused hand to Mikey’s right knee.

“ No, Mikey. “ The oldest solemnly stated as the youngest groaned from the impact, “ You are staying HERE. “

After the brotherly-inflicted pain faded in his knee, Mikey raised his head in defiance at the leader.

“ I’m.. coming.. You can’t stop me, Leo. “ Mikey tried very hard to sound as tough as he could, while still also struggling under the intensifying ache in his ankle. It didn’t come out as a pathetic squeak, so he’ll call it a win in his book.

The eldest’s eyes sparked as a war was fought between feelings of annoyance and respect for his little brother. Mikey watched as Leo sank deep into thought, probably trying to think of a plan to get Mikey off his back so he could go search for their missing brothers.

Leo growled as he reached for the built in power panel and clicked one of its many buttons, finally ending the horrible cacophony of the panic alarm.

“ - I can’t THINK with all this noise.. “ Leo grumbled as he rubbed his fingers into his temples.

As the leader tried to make a plan, Mikey was also attempting to figure a solution to his problem.

How bad does it REALLY hurt-

He tried to wiggle his foot, but abruptly stopped the motion as the ache returned with a vengeance. He was VERY lucky that the only noise that escaped him was a low rumbly hum. Had he shouted, groaned, or yelped again, Leo would have had him in his arms and off to bed in a second.

Alright, maybe I shouldn’t walk just yet… OW.

Mikey let out his own quiet growl as he could hear the grandfather clock tick away in Sensei’s Study.

They were running out of time.

The panic button carried a graven heaviness to it. One of the reasons the alarm’s song was so frightening to Leo and him was the fact that they’d never heard it before. Don had only just installed it on the day that Master Splinter finally allowed the brothers to go to the surface on their own. That was like two weeks ago.

Mikey slowly turned to look at his leader.

Leo’s expression finally revealed the torment running rampant through his mind, as he grew more and more tense with each failed phone call to his lost brothers. Mikey could hear the annoyed sound of Raph’s voice as his message played again and again in Leo’s ear.

‘ “ How does this stupid thing work…….what- what do you mean it’s already recording?! GRRRR DON SHOW ME HOW TO WORK THIS PIECE OF- [ BEEP ] “ ‘

When Raph first recorded his answering machine message, the brothers would all burst into laughter whenever he missed their calls. But now, Leo only grimaced and shrank at the harsh sounds of his fiery brother, almost as if the recording was taunting him.

REMINDING him.

“ Come on.. COME ON. “ The eldest bit his lip as he tried for Don’s cell again. With each failed call his mind became more and more unclear, as his voice was failing to conceal his shame and anger, his sadness… and his regret.

‘ “ Sorry, this is Donatello Hamato, I’m not at the phone right now, please leave a message, and if I have time I might call you back. [ BEEP ] “ ‘

“ - GRRRAHHH!! “

Leo raised his phone as if he were about to throw it into the ground, his arm stretched and taught like a band on a slingshot. Just as he looked like he was about to throw it with all the force he could muster, his arms went limp to his sides as he lost the battle to hold back his tears. The leader in blue, the one with the plan, the one who should never fail his family, fell down on his knees and began….

.. to pray.

Mikey could barely hear his brother as the oldest’s voice clashed and strained from the guilt and shame that swirled in his heart. The youngest could make out a few words through the chokes and sobs, the most used being “ please” and “ help them”… But the rest was grief-stricken gibberish that only God Himself was able to understand.

That’s good..seeing how He can actually do something for our brothers.. Mikey thought to himself, his inner voice tinged with bitterness.

Mikey looked down with hate filled eyes at his swollen ankle. He could feel his own tears now beginning to stream down his face as he gulped down the growing anxiety bubbling up his throat.

I can’t do anything.

His bitter heart added a sting to the tears as they pricked the corners of his eyes.

I can’t do anything for them.

He looked up.

…. But… I know You can.

With a strained voice, Mikey called to his brother, but all that sounded was the same pathetic squeak he was trying to avoid from before.

Dang it.

Mikey tried again, this time clearing his throat the best he could.

“ Leo…”

The oldest’s bowed head slowly rose from the ground to look up at his youngest brother. Tears had stained his royal blue mask, and his eyes were rimmed with a soft red. Choked sobs still weaseled their way out of Leo’s throat, as his gaze met Mikey’s.

“ Come.. *hic*.. Come here, bro. Pl- pl- lease..”

Without a word, Leo walked to his brother’s side. And Mikey, in one smooth motion, leapt off the couch one last time.

“ M- mikey n- no- “

The oldest never finished his sentence as his body was met with a crushing hug from his little brother.

The two stood there for what felt like hours, embracing each other as their shoulders trembled, and nestling their heads deep into the other’s neck. Their arms clung tighter and tighter as their separate sobs melded together into a cadence of fear and grief.

Their fight from earlier had no place in either of the brothers’ thoughts as they continued to try to comfort each other. The two boys’ minds were far too busy being filled with reasons of why Don and Raph sounded the dreaded alarm. What could have happened to them. If they were both alright.

..If they would ever come home.

“ We- we’re run-n-ning out of ti-ime.. “ The oldest whispered as he rubbed the tears from his eyes into Mikey’s shoulder.

The youngest’s chest tightened as he took a sharp inhale.

He knew what he had to do.

And he hated it.

“…G-go…..Go fi- find the- them. “ Mikey whispered back, “ I- I’ll only s-slow you do- down.. “

Leo lifted his head to look his youngest brother in the eyes. The oldest’s expression was filled with child-like fear and nervousness; He looked like a kid again. He had that same look that all kids wear when something scary happens:

WHAT DO I DO?

And with that question, a child would usually go to the closest adult in the room.

Leo is seventeen.

And he’s the closest they had to an adult until Splinter came home from scavenging in Central Park.

But with the call to leadership, Leo’s face and posture changed. His slumped shoulders straightened, and his chest rose and fell with heavy breaths. He gave the weakest of smiles, rubbed his eyes one last time, and then nodded as he gently pushed Mikey back onto the couch.

“ I’ll f- find them, Mikey. “

Leo placed his hand on the back of Mikey’s neck, and lowered his forehead to the youngest’s.

“… I promise. “

As Leo picked up his katanas and began to run to the Lair’s main doorway into the tunnels, Mikey remembered something.

“ W-wait- Leo, hold up! “

The eldest quickly swiveled his head to be in Mikey’s direction, as the youngest leaned over and pulled some kind of secret drawer out of the coffee table. He grabbed something shiny and then threw it to Leo. With a quick flick of his wrist thanks to his ninja skills, the blue clad turtle caught the energy bar with ease. After a slight glance at the snack, he looked back up to Mikey with a “ you know what you did “ grin. Mikey responded with the widest of grins Leo’s ever seen.

“ .. Thanks, Little Brother. “

In a blur of green and blue, Leo had vanished sprinting down the tunnels.

Mikey gave a long, weighted sigh as he wiped away the remaining tears on his face.

… It’s ok….Leo’s got it… He’ll find them….

As he sat on the couch, not sure where to land his eyes, he noticed the wooden picture frame hanging on the wall next to the hallway. The words written inside the glass echoed in Mikey’s mind as his heart finally shattered.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge Him in all your ways and He will direct your paths. “

They’ll be ok…. Mikey thought as he fell deep into the cushions of the couch, once again letting his tears stream freely, Leo will find them.. God will help him find them..

Mikey closed his eyes.

Lord… Keep my brothers safe.. Please, Lord..

PLEASE bring them home.

That's it for this chapter! :) Hope you enjoyed it! ( Or it made you sob your eyes out, either way as a author I win XD )

To God be the glory!

MASTERPOST <- PRIOR CHAPTER NEXT CHAPTER ->

[nerves-nebula]

After the turgles all get out do any of them go low contact with Leo, at least at first? Leo reminds me a bit of my brother who I had to not talk to for a full year to finally get his head out of his ass lol

ALSO if they all live together after they get out how exactly do they all handle no longer depending on raph to do things? Like.. do the other turtles know how to do laundry? Or use a dishwasher? Does raph try to continue in his role of caretaker after they get out, even if the others tell him he doesn’t have to?

oooughhhgg, its rough, man.

they all kind of have really co-dependent relationships if im honest. it'd do them good to be away from each other for a while, but they're kinda scared to be separated. they've been fighting as a team for years now, and have lived together their entire lives before that. they mostly only feel safe when they're around each other. the only times they've been separated for long stretches have been when one of them is injured or hurt or something. PTSD type shit.

they all also have different ways of approaching conflict. Donnie wants to just ignore it and let it "heal" but that doesn't actually help him. he NEEDS to confront it to feel better. but he REALLY doesn't want to.

Raph is just so tired. he doesn't mind discussing his feelings but he almost doesnt know what to say. he always just feels tired and empty, he doesn't know where to start processing things.

Mikey is ecstatic to finally be free and spends the most time away from the apartment, I think. which is cool for him, but also makes things weird at home with Donnie, Raph, and Leo all being both volatile and allergic to sincere emotions. Not that it's mikeys JOB to mediate them but, like. it'd help if he was there before they start yelling :')

The others generally know how to take care of themselves, yeah. like, they CAN cook and do dishes and stuff if they have to (raph was also a kid so it's not like he could ever fully replace a parent. they all had to become self sufficient in some way or another) but they usually just.. don't. or they didn't usually, at first.

sso yeah, at first the labour does land a bit heavily on Raphs shoulders, which Raph doesn't complain about being who he is. It takes Casey's intervention (forcing Raph to relax/refusing to let Raph do all the chores haha) to get them to realize they should probably not perpetuate the dynamic of Raph cleaning up after them and cooking all their food now that they're away from splinter.

it's awkward tho cause so much of the abusive dynamics between them are just assumed, since that's how it's always been.

[stereo-slime4]

Okay, I've been scrolling through the Rise Angst I have saved on TikTok and all the "what if the Krang spike killed Raph?" kind of stuff, and had an idea.

(Not an actual fic thing, just sort of an in-depth headcanon ig?? Or like an imagine sort of thing? Idk)

Tw: Raph dies, Mikey dies, Donnie dies, probably pretty graphic descriptions of zombification

So, imagine Raph actually died from the spike thing, like it impaled all the way through his chest, blood and plastron shards all over, probably some falling on Leo too just for good measure y'know.

Then, he gets dragged back to the lair in Raph's Donnie Pod TM having a full-blown panic attack just like in the movie, but now he's covered in his brother's blood and has to tell everyone that Raph is dead.

Like, bro would be 10x more pissed at poor Casey, Casey's trying to come to terms with the fact that one of the turtles died probably years before he did in Casey's future(partially insinuating that Casey's involvement made this timeline worse), everyone else is freaking out over the fact that Raph died period, and now, instead of his impulsive manhunt being to find and save Raph, Leo's out for blood and vengeance any way he can get it.

He and the team go on to Metro Tower, get split up, Casey starts lecturing him, but instead of taking the character development and learning any sort of lesson from it, he starts yelling back, and the whole thing turns into a massive screaming match because they're both trying to blame the other for what's going on, but they also both can't help but blame themselves more than anything.

After a while, Donnie's transmission asking where the hell they are comes in and they agree to accept the Krang as a common enemy for now.

They all meet up in Metro Tower, and before they spot each other Donnie uses his tracker to try and find Leo

He ends up seeing that Raph is almost directly on top of them and immediately points this out to the group, saying something along the lines of "Hey Leo, I thought you said Raph died in the Foot base..." Leo would respond with a glare: "Yea, he did, why?" And Donnie goes "Then why does my tracker say he's here????"

They all start looking around in a panic until they see the giant cocoon thing dangling from the ceiling. It falls down and cracks open, revealing Raph's bloody corpse slowly morphing into a Krang Zombie.

Out of the 6 living people there (April, Splinter, Mikey, Donnie, Leo, and Casey Jr), at least 3 of them immediately start throwing up at the sight of Krangified Corpse Raph (looks basically the same as OG Krangified Raph except with a giant bleeding hole in his chest maybe with some organs showing and blood dripping from his mouth) and the scene continues as canon with Krang Raph taking the key and the rest of the gang running and dragging each other away.

The Technodrome comes through the portal, and this time, Leo's inspiring speech is more of a half- baked denial-fueled desperate attempt at convincing his remaining family (and himself) that there's still a chance for everything to be okay (especially since none of them have gotten any chance to process or grieve Raph's death whatsoever).

They come up with their plan, Mikey and Donnie do their thing trying to fly the Technodrome, and Leo ends up fighting Raph and it's just so absolutely horrifying for him because imagine watching your oldest brother literally die trying to save you, then watching that same brother's corpse essentially mutated into the thing that killed him, and then having to fight his mutated corpse. Adrenaline is the only thing keeping him from hyperventilating and passing out.

He spends most of the fight desperately trying not to get killed while sobbing and pleading with his brother who very much cannot hear him. Eventually (at some point after Mikey and Donnie get dragged out of the control room, where in canon Leo would be giving his whole apology speech), Raph attacks attacks Leo, who is on the floor backed into a wall, and Leo picks up his sword, screws his eyes shut, and swings as hard as he can. Raph's head falls into his lap, the rest of Raph's body falls off the platform, and the battle is technically won (though it really doesn't feel like it).

Krang Prime is incredibly smug about this development, and it looks like all hope is finally lost. Just then, Raph's ninpo projection shows up (bc they need to get their powers back somehow), shocking literally everyone (himself included). The other brothers are flooded with relief that Raph is alive (he's not. He's still dead, the ninpo projection is legit just his ghost, but they're all in denial so we'll let them have this), and they get their ninpo back through the power of family and love

They decide not to talk about Leo killing Raph's corpse right now because there are infinitely bigger fish to fry and they'll have plenty of time to talk about it after everything else (spoiler alert: they won't)

They do the whole midair fight with the Krang, Raph jumps Mikey and Donnie to the ground ("Don't worry! This is not a hug! It's a rescue!!") except this time when his projection breaks, there no real Raph inside it, so it's just a bunch of disintegrating red particles.

Leo goes through the portal, and Mikey and Donnie don't have enough energy to survive getting him back. Leo exits the portal so happy and relieved to see at least two of his brothers left, tackling them into a bear hug almost immediately, only to notice that they're cracking and flaking apart. He screams and cries and begs them not to leave but there's nothing he can do to save them now. They fall apart in his arms.

April, Splinter, and Casey Jr pick him up in a car that they definitely didn't steal, and Leo has to break the news that he's the only turtle left to save.

Splinter later tries to get Leo to learn meditation to talk to his brothers again, but he's so convinced that they'd hate him that he refuses to even try.

They all watch over him as ghosts, and he feels their presence, but Leo assumes that it's judgement, when they really just miss him and wish he would talk to them

Notes : English is not my first language and there are probably a lot of mistakes in here :'D. Also, I need to stress how cringe the first part of the story is but trust me, my writing gets better as you read😭

Chapter 1 : Rose of Tokyo

-ˋˏ ❀。* ✿˚* ੈ ‧₊*❈꧁🥀꧂❈ * ੈ‧₊ *₊° ❀ ˎˊ-

"Have you guys heard of the 'Rose of Tokyo'?" Akkun asked with hesitance.

"What kind of name is that?" Makoto asked mockingly.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHO?! THE GIRL WHO SAVED COUNTLESS OF OTHER WOMEN FROM BEING HARRASSED?! THE GIRL WHO IS RUMORED TO HAVE THE SKILL OF TOMAN'S LEADER?! THE GIRL WHO CAN KICK ASS?! THE GIRL WH-"

"OK, WE GET IT" Yamagishi was quickly cut off by Takemichi.

Despite that, he continued, "You are a disgrace to the brotherhood for not knowing that such a badass delinquentress existed."

"You are one annoying fanboy"

*GASPS* "HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY WORK YOU LITTLE-"

Yamagishi and Makoto get up to square up with each other, while the others continue to chill at the park.

*Sigh* "Those two are so annoying,"

Takemichi chuckles.

"But why did you ask us about her?"

"Oh, I want to know who she was."

"Akkun? I didn't know you were a fan"

"What no! I just wanted to thank her in person for helping my sister get out of trouble yesterday,"

"why can't you just find her and tell her,"

"she always runs away when someone tries to talk with her,"

"oh I see"

"WAIT, did you think WE of all people knew?"

"I thought Yamagishi would've found out by now."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"

He yelled from a distance.

"WE THOUGHT YOU WOULD KNOW WHO SHE IS BY NOW SINCE YOU'RE SUCH A SIMP!"

"OH, YOU WANNA FIGHT?!"

"BRING IT ON FANBOY!"

Akkun left Takemichi and joined in on the fight.

<what a hypocrite>

Takemichi thought to himself as he glanced at the time displayed on his phone.

"Uh, I have to leave now, it's about to be dinner time."

His friends whined in disappointment. They bid farewell and Takemichi headed home. After walking for a while, he finally reached home. He swung open the door, threw his bag on their broad couch and rushed to the bathroom to take a quick shower. Emerging from his room after showering, he walked toward the sofa and flopped on it face down, not even making an effort to complete his schoolwork. Suddenly, he heard the house door being unlocked.

"TAKEMICHI IM HOME"

"Oh hi sis"

Sachiko comes in with some kfc that she bought for dinner.

"KFC?!"

"You got a 67% on your Math exam so I figured you should have a reward"

<I really shouldn't award him for this but oh well>

"THANK YOU SO MUCH!"

Takemichi exclaimed as he grabbed the bag of the finger-lickin' good fried chicken and dug in. While enjoying their dinner, Takemichi suddenly brought up a question.

"hey sis, have you heard of 'tokyo rose'?"

"...what"

"or something like that I probably messed up the name,"

"OH, you mean 'Rose of Tokyo' ? The one who goes around saving girls from getting harassed or something?"

"Why does everyone know who she is?"

"cause she showed up like 1 month ago I think."

<1 month 2 weeks and 4 days>

"oh really? I only found out about her recently, "

"huh, I didn't expect that from you, Takemichi,"

"what do you mean?"

"Oh cmon you know what I mean!"

'Wha- OH DONT THINK OF ME THAT WAY!"

"IT'S HARD NOT TO IF YOU'D HIDE THOSE MAGAZINES BETTER THEN MAYBE I WOULDN'T! "

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH STOP TALKING ABOUT THAT! "

"..."

An awkward silence filled the room—that was until Sachiko started eating again, Takemichi followed, not making eye contact.

"So uhm why did you ask me about her?"

<damn this feels like déjà vu>

"uh Akkun wanted to thank the girl for helping her sister"

"She already thanked m....." She mumbled then slowly trailed off.

"What?"

"O-oh I was saying his sister probably already thanked the girl"

"He wanted to thank the girl formally, "

"She really doesn't want it, I mean she doesn't do what she does for something in return, she does it because she wants to help out. Plus, she'd feel way too bad if she hadn't interfered with the situation."

"wait a minute"

<SH*T I SAID TOO MUCH>

"How do you know that much about her?"

"ARE YOU-*GASP*"

"UHM NO I'M NOT IT'S JUST THAT I-"

"ARE YOU SECRETLY IN LOVE WITH HER?! I MEAN YOU AND HER HAVE 'ROSE IN YOUR NAMES AND-" "I'm throwing you out of the house"

"NO WAIT-"

Sachiko jokingly forces Takemichi out of the house and smiles to herself thinking how lucky she is to have a brother this stupid. But he was right about one thing, she really needed to be careful when letting rumours about her spread.

more notes: AHHH THAT WAS SO CRINGE. I'm so sorry😭😭 I wrote that shi a year ago. I promise the next chapters will be better🤞

[tmntxthings]

Hihihi! I was wondering if you could do 2012 Raph with a soft reader who cries at being insulted but also can kick butt when necessary (but doesn’t like doing so)

I love your writing btw! It’s super good and I love reading it!

Fire Breather

author’s note: 2k12 raph is a piece of work lemme tell you, but it was fun to try and put myself in his shell so to speak, hope you all enjoy~~~

warnings: lots of cursing heh, brother conflict, comfort

—————————————————————————

Raphael slammed a fist down on the table. “Where’s the last slice of pizza.” He said gritting his teeth in irritation. Leo rolled his eyes as he got up from the table having finished his slices, probably heading to the tv to watch his show. Donnie glanced over at Mikey who was all but sweating bullets and ignoring Raph’s menacing stare.

“Mikey, I called the last slice.” And Mikey immediately went on the defensive since ignoring would only anger his brothers increasing temper. “Yeah but you still weren’t done with yours!” Mikey said. “You always get the last slice!” Raph’s eyes blazing, “I called it this one time Mikey!” His orange brother’s head started ducking into his shell. Then Raph shot up from his seat in an attempt to grab Mikey but his brother was faster as he ran away screaming bloody murder.

“Raph I’m sorryyyyy I was hungry okay??” Mikey hollered as Raph closed the distance chasing his brother around the lair. They went tumbling to the floor as Raph tackled Mikey to the ground, easily pinning him. “That slice was gonna be for Y/n!” Raph huffed out, and as soon as it did he froze.

So did Mikey. “Who?” Donnie called from the table and even Leo peered around the television. “Uh, NO ONE,” and now he was pissed. With clenched fists he punched the ground right beside Mikey’s head and his brother squeaked, apologizing again. Raph hastily got up, he didn’t want to be questioned about you. He couldn’t believe he had said your name! He’d been so careful these past weeks. “Raph,” Leo called out from the living room but Raph kept heading for the exit, he needed to cool off.

“Raph!” Leo called out again and the red brother felt like he was gonna go crazy. “Shut up! I’ll be back,” he added on just so his brothers wouldn’t follow after him. Though he wasn’t so sure about that anymore now that Raph had piqued everyone’s interest. Leo gave in, letting his brother go, knowing he’d come back.

Out on the surface Raph kept to the shadows and he was at your building in record time. But he knew this wasn’t really a good idea, he was so angry, at Mikey and at himself. And Raph was the type to take his emotions out on other people. But he knocked on your window anyway. When the curtain was pulled back and you waved, he felt a little better. When you opened up the window, you unknowingly stoked the raging flames as you asked, “I thought you were bringing me a slice of the best pizza in the city?” It was only a tease, but it made Raph’s face harden.

“What’s wrong?” You said immediately as you climbed out of your window to join him on the fire escape. He shook his head, opening his mouth and then closing it. He didn’t want to say anything. He just knew he’d ruin everything. And that only added more fuel to the self hatred at the moment. “Raph?” you spoke softly as you gingerly reached out touching his arm. He jerked back, “Can you just be quiet?!” and then he turned away completely as he shouted “Fuck!”

You cringed away, not understanding but you breathed throughout your nose, trying to stay calm. You thought maybe if you waited in silence for a few moments Raph would turn around. But he didn’t he was as still as a statue and you didn’t want to reach out again, he hadn’t wanted you to touch him earlier. Truly you hadn’t meant to let your emotions get the best of you, but Raph yelling had triggered your tears, so when he turned only his head to glance at you, he sighed, “and here come the tears, great.” He muttered to himself but you heard every word.

Now this made you angry, so you brushed past him heading up the stairs for the roof. Grabbing his arm as you passed him and he was surprised at how strong you were as he moved to keep up with you so he didn’t trip. “What’re you doing??” Raph said sharply and you let go once on the rooftop. “Why are you being such a dick?” And Raph did a double take, hearing you curse for the first time. But he recovered quickly, crossing his arms, “god you really wanted that pizza didn’t you?” he sniffed not wanting to talk about it. You glared at him, it had never been about the pizza! As soon as you saw his face turn stoney you had been worried about him!

You scoffed, “really Raph just tell me what’s wrong!” and he turned away from you again. It was the final straw. He didn’t want to talk? Fine. One of your legs shot out and you twirled aiming for his legs as you roundhouse kicked him. Raph went down, stunned and blinking up at the New York sky. You were standing over him, then you crouched, your face above his as he looked up at you. “Raph please just talk to me,” you said like you hadn’t just planted his ass to the floor. His eyes darted away, “I had said I wanted the last slice, but my brother got it before I noticed..” he muttered out.

“That’s why you’re upset??” you exclaimed. “Well… I also lost it and said your name in front of all my brothers..” his green cheeks darkened, his eyes still not meeting yours. “And then they all started badgering me and-“ he made a frustrated noise, not continuing. “First off I don’t care about the pizza, I was teasing earlier! And second, what’s the big deal about your brothers knowing who I am?” He sighed, shrugging his shoulders, “I don’t know. I wanted to bring you that pizza.. you know since I promised and hyped it up.” You smiled down at him, and Raph continued, “and I had been keeping you a secret, ‘cause my brothers would definitely fuck with me over the fact that I got a girlfriend.”

“Raph, I’m sure you can deal with the teasing,” you knew he was still beating around the bush and you decided to lay next to him, since he still hadn’t moved. His face turned towards you, his eyes still not meeting yours. “Hey, look at me” you said quietly and he did. “What’s really on your mind?” you murmured, you hesitantly reached out touching his arm that lay next to yours. He didn’t draw back this time. He just kept staring at you. Wondering to himself how you could read him so well. “I’m pissed that- I couldn’t help but come to you. Because I wanted to see you yet I was so angry. And I couldn’t stop myself from lashing out at you, even though that’s the last thing I wanted to do,”

“Raph, I’m glad you came to me… I know you’re working on your temper.” He groaned, thinking to himself how horrible of a job he was doing with that. “Hey I can always cool you off by dropping that turtle shell,” your eyebrows waggled at him and he laughed despite himself. “You were lucky, I had that shell turned, if you remember correctly.” He was smiling now. “Well lucky for you, I only use my cool fighting skills for emergencies, I really don’t like violence.” You stuck out your tongue, and he rolled his eyes. “How convenient now that I’m ready to challenge ya!” He said trying to bait you but it didn’t work as you shook your head.

“Okay okay,” he conceded, “only when I need a good thrashing hmm?” And you laughed making him smile wider. “Exactly,” you said through your laughter.

Idk if prompts are okay to ask right now with the LOTR stuff(which I LOVE, keep it up!), but if they are, I was wondering if it’s okay to see a short comic heart-to-heart between Leo and Splinter after the war? Maybe Leo’s in a state of depression and he’s just sitting at the couch watching TV and Yoshi sits with him, and somehow finds the right words to help him. Just an idea.

This turned into a short fic instead (630 words).

Check out Chair Theft on Ao3 or continue reading below!

Leo sighs, eyes fixed on the projector screen but not really seeing it. Mikey had found a new old tape of magic shows for him, and Leo was trying to enjoy it, but… He just can’t pay attention to it. His thoughts keep wandering. And not even to good places, like wondering if CJ is having fun on the tour of mostly-rebuilt-NYC April is taking him on. No, his stupid brain has decided that he has to keep thinking about-

Dad’s door slides open and Leo quickly adjusts his robe, making sure it fully covers his plastron.

“Hey Dad,” Leo calls lightly, pulling a smile onto his face. “Sorry for stealing your chair.”

Splinter huffs but doesn’t reply right away, and Leo watches him notice the single katana propped on the right side of the chair.

“Have you taken your pain meds, Blue?”

Leo turns his gaze back to the screen. “Yeah.” Not that they did much on a bad day like today, when all his healed bones and scars ache like the breaks and wounds are almost new again. And that’s not even counting what hasn’t healed yet. He probably shouldn’t be out of bed today. It’s just… he doesn’t know. He thought the TV would help.

He hears Dad sigh, and then a dragging sound makes him look back over. Dad pulls one of the larger bean bag chairs over next to Leo and plops into it with a grunt.

“Remind me to ask Red to find another recliner. Mine is too small for you- not enough back support.”

Leo can’t help but stare. He’d expected… he doesn’t know what he expected- he’s only been back on his feet (more or less) for a couple weeks, and nobody’s quite back to acting normal yet. Not around Leo, at least. But he’d thought that Dad would shoo him out of the chair, or maybe just leave him alone or something. Not… whatever this is.

“Where is Red, anyway? And Orange and Purple?”

Leo shrugs with just his right shoulder. “Apparently Meat Sweats is causing trouble again. They’re taking care of it.”

Dad hums, and then breaks into an eye-squinting grin. “I think I will yell at them when they come home, for making us worry.”

This time, the smile that pulls at Leo’s face is a little more real. “Oh yeah, you’re clearly worried out of your mind right now.”

“Exactly! Now, where is your phone? Do you have it?”

Leo pulls his phone from his robe pocket and waves it in the air, curious.

“Good! Now tell them to get take-out on the way home.”

Leo snorts and begins typing in the group chat. “What, so it takes them longer and you can yell at them more?”

“That too!”

Leo hits send. Raph answers with a thumbs up emoji almost immediately and something in Leo’s chest loosens. Oh.

He looks back at Dad, who now appears to be enjoying the magic show that’s still playing. He’s not even sure if Dad likes magic shows.

“Thanks, Dad,” he croaks, because he’s trying to get better at this kind of thing, and also probably because the pain is affecting his filter.

He watches Dad start and stop an acknowledgement a few times before choosing to look back at his phone. Leo guesses Dad is trying to get better at this sort of thing too.

Mikey sends a text asking what kind of take out Leo wants, and Leo starts to answer it before his wrist aches too much and he has to set his phone on his thigh and tap out the rest of his message with his pointer finger.

Dad’s hand settles on Leo’s knee. They watch the rest of the magic shows on the new old tape together.

S/O that drinks a lot

Bonten edition

Warning: Suggestive, alcohol, reader has a slight age gap with Ran, Mochi and Takeomi , mentions of vomit.

Sanzu and everyone are under the cut

Manjiro ‘Mikey’ Sano

Mikey could care less if your drink. Because everyone around him is an adult and could drink so for him he doesn’t bother him.

What does bother him is how much you drink.

You drink as if your trying to kill yourselves 😭

And he’s just staring as you while you take close to 7, maybe more, shots with his drunken executives and other strangers that you’ve meet through out the night

But don’t worry we keeps a close eyes just in case they might try something.

He’s surprised it takes a lot of it to get you super drunk. He only takes you home when your falling asleep on sanzus shoulder.

Although he really does like taking care of you while you whine in bed all day because of the horrible hangover you have.

Sanzu Haruchiyo

Your drinking buddy I tell you

He’s drinking with you as if your both trying to get killed 😭

You two get drunk off tequila shots and nothing more. Maybe add a little bit of weed to the mixture. That’s what really gets you two going for the night.

Although Sanzu dies down on the drinking once he sees you slurring your words a lot. Men still has to protect you. You can never know.

Loves when you get drunk because you turn into this clingy feisty, crybaby women that he never sees while your sober.

He hates having to deal with you in the morning because he also has a really bad hangover.

You two just call of work and deal with each other.

Kakucho Hitto

Is really worried for you and your liver. No joke.

Watches you like a hawk while you take drink after drink and shot after shot to the point where he’s debating to ask If you can go sober for him.

Kakucho drinks with you but only does one with you. Seeing as he has to watch your every move to make sure you don’t get yourself to any trouble at the bontens bar

But he really does like to see you have fun with yourself.

Takes you home when sanzu offers you pills.

Man literally slapped them out of his hand and threw you over his shoulder while your giggling and pointed at him yelling out a fat “NO” before leaving.

Kokonoi Hajime

He’s amused by your alcoholic nature. He doesn’t expect someone like you to be a serious alcoholic

He’s like the others watching you get drunk off your mind even drinks and takes shots with you.

Offers the best drinks the bontens bar has to offer

Has you sitting on his lap cute and drunk and drink with his other executives around him.

He knows your limits and honestly when you pass it he’s taking you home. He doesn’t want to clean vomit out of his car the entire night.

He knows when to wear his least expensive cloths if your going to go all night and drink. You vomiting still hunts him.

Ran Haitani

He’s really fascinated by the fact that can drink.

He watches you drink the night away as your enjoy your night out with a couple of other friends at his bar

You remind him when he was much on the younger side when his alcohol tolerance was much better compared to now. In his thirties getting tipsy off a couple of drinks .

He’s even more impressed by the amount of drinking games you can win

You’re more focused when there’s money envolved so what better way to go again kokonoi and he brags about you to his brother and other executives about how amazing you are

That night you won more then 30 grand against Kokonoi

Rindou Haitani

Doesn’t know if he should let you be or take you home. But he joins you. Just like sanzu he doesn’t drink as much, he has to watch out for you because knowing you you’ll probably do something stupid while being drunk.

Watches you closely because last time he didn’t he thought you got kidnapped and closed the whole bar. Until one of his men found. You in the bathroom crying asking for him.

You drink until you vomit that the thing he hates about you drinking so much. If anyone needs him he’s in the women’s bathroom holding your hair back as your puke your guts out.

But put that aside different drinks make you feel different emotions so when you drink wine at a bar it’s a bonus because people will find you on his lap as he leans back rubbing your back. A sight to see indeed.

Hates that fact that when your drunk his brothers goal is to make you even more drunk by playing games.

Takes you home before Ran even gets the chance to make a bet with you.

Kanji Mochizuki

Doesn’t know what to do with you and just watches you stumbled over things. He’s just there behind you to make sure you don’t fall over like a parent would a child when they first start to walk.

Pays for all your drinks at this point. Just tell them to put it on his tab and he’ll pay for it eventually.

Wishes he could join the drunken night with you but seeing as your young as veer your alcoholic tolerance is a little high then his.

But he was never a alcoholic person to begin with so he lets you have your fun with people.

Takes you home the second you ala to knock out. He does not want you sleeping on the couches. God knows what people have done on them.

Helps with your hangovers

Takeomi Akashi

Finishes his cigarette every time you take a shot. Man is sweating bricks.

Dose not know how to deal with a twenty year old women that’s drunk.

Like everyone else he watches you get drunk off your mind. Yelling and cheering like it’s nobody’s business.

However he does like how touchy you can be when you get drunk. But he won’t go to far in your drunken state.

When he need to take you back to his place you cry because you don’t want to leave

Took a lot of convincing and a trip to McDonald’s to get you into his car. Safe to say he would never buy you food ever again. You throw up in his car.

[cokowiii]

Sorry I keep on asking questions (I’m just very invested) I noticed that the boys reactions are pretty spot on in the show to stress. Leo cracks every joke possible ,at Mikeys expense.Raph had a mixture of anger and panic he outwardly is disappointed at Mikey inwardly but mostly at himself. Donnie is rational but incredibly blunt labs straight to the point with Mikey. Funnily enough in almost every scene Mikey is always looking away or facing away from his brothers. Hiding under a blanket when Raph yelled, covering his eyes when he watches a smoking psa Almost never ever looking at Donnie when he’s caught or talked with vaping as a subject. Heck even with Raph holding him he never showed resistance or struggle he goes limp with puppie eyes. Thing about Mikey though his responses to a bad situation is usually wayyy more in your face.His facial expressions-are way more exaggerated, often head on like with Dr.Delicate touch or just in general as when he wore Donnies suit to protect him he shows disappointment then used it as a way to bouch around, at the library he turns becomes an unstoppable king commanding respect .Heck even when he’s scared he jumps up and goes into his shell. He’s a very open book and everyone in the room will know how he feels. The only times where he’s showed any kind of quiet avoidance is in two episodes I’d I remember correctly. The first is when Leo is making sure Mikey doesn’t tell on them and after he was traumatized by his fish sister and his father were he simply goes “I don’t know how to feel anymore.” and after disappointing his father and embracing the “Hamato way” completely. And albeit he still has his moments where he is still outwardly emotional. It seems like the moments were Mikey goes full on avoidance is when he thinks he’s wrong. Important on the when HE thinks he’s wrong in the episode “Pizza Puffs” he keeps eating poisonous food. Oh he is dead wrong and Raph is definitely angry but Mikey doesn’t care. He keeps eating for the whole episode against Raph’s wishes. He could be because he didn’t think it was a big deal or because his brothers were also doing it with him. But he is not avoidant at all. But here nope he barely wants to even look at his brothers. In the last panel he faces away when getting the vapes he does not run he stays there grabs the vapes and gives them to his brothers staring every where but them.The only moment we’re Mikey looks at anyone is Donnie when he argue he can quit until Donnie says “that’s what addicts say” then he turns around bent over arm over his head. His brothers just see his back the whole time. But we can see his face it’s a little annoyed but softens into this scared but almost embarrassed expression. I suspect since there one time use those cartridges were empty other than the one Mikey handed over he was current consuming. I do not think Mikey is guilty over vaping, I think he’s guilty over making his family angry. For the first time everyone is upset at him no body’s on his side. Normally only Splinter or Raphs angry. Splinter usually is just nagging or insulting him it’s as a group with his brothers, Miley’s a teen he probably doesn’t care what his dad thinks. Raph yells it’s hard as a group (once again others are also being screamed at he’s not alone) or it’s more like soft discipline when it’s specifically him to protect him as the youngest. He probably gets off easy most cases with his family. Now everyone upset no one is neutral or on his side. He is the one who’s wrong. Expect Mikey doesn’t feel he’s wrong for Vaping but he seems to hate being villianized. The others of course think this is probably the most proper reaction after all vapes are bad and smoking is irresponsible. Similar to the “Purple game” episode the boys will just reacted the way the Internet told the too to help Donnie, was it helpful really no. The show suggests the thing off screen he goes into a new game to get addicted again. They are teenagers, not doctors. They want to help but they have no clue how too. So they simply do what they think they should do. (1/2)

Okay this was really super long and Im at such a loss for words. I promise i read all of this im just in awe rn. Never EVER have I had someone analyse something ive drawn so fucking well. Like u used references and shit. Fucking amazing homie. Rant all you all caus eI love reading this shit!

Key

Summary:you a neonplrton comes to the lair to receive the krang key

Bold is you pink is April(since there isn't yellow) and normal text is splinter.

⚠️Warning⚠️: Rise movie spoilers(kinda), Donnie being a bit of a simp

Type:scenario:Turtles, April, Casey, splinter with male neonplrton reader

Version:rise

~

No one knew what neonplrton were and Casey never seen you before, but if they knew one thing. Don't trust unknown creatures. After what they faced with the krang they didn't expect anything else. They figured the krang were a feared alien. Yes but not by many. So when a portal opened, they didn't see it but they hears talking and what sounds like fire. They panicked at first but they didn't see any fire around.

"Okay I- mom i- I GET IT I KNOW WHAT IM LOOKING!"

They turned the corner and seen you standing their. They froze, the spikes, the scales, the arms. Just everything about you screamed danger. But the way you talked made you seem like a everyday teenage boy. When you turned and looked at them it got worse, the eyes were horrific, and the ears actually aren't scary just weird liking, kinda like Elf ears but instead of pointing up they go around the ear lobe. Leo had stepped back in fear after what happened with the krang he didn't what another alien. And you looked stronger and more evil. They didn't know what you what but April was the first to step to you.

"Who are you and what do you want!"

She shouted from the other end of the hallway. Hoping to at least scare you a little but it was easy to tell she was scared.

"Oh I'm not here to hurt you guys I just need the krang key, don't want those guys trying to terrorize you guys again, happened way to much"

Your deep inhuman voice scared them more. But mikey could tell you were not a threat.

"What do you mean 'way to much'? I thought it only happened once"

"Oh no, this would be the third time, well I guess fourth since you, Casey Jones time traveled,which is a horrible idea"

Casey stepped back, out of fear that you knew his name.

"How do you know about that?"

"Oh, right I should probably explain myself. I'm a neonplrton a inhumane species who knowing just about everything, well name wise and things you do. That count as good and bad deeds of course I don't know every little detail, nah that's the arnys jobs"

They looked confused instead of scared this time.

"Y/N HURRY UP AND GET THE KEY I DONT HAVE ALL DAY"

"I'M GETTING THERE MOM"

They all looked at eachother, not knowing what to do.

"So the krang key"

This time it was donnies turn to step up to you.

"And why should we give it to you?"

They all watched as your face turned from calm to annoyance.

"Donnie just give him the key!"

Raph tried to whisper so you didn't hear him but that didn't work, you have great ears.

"No, I don't know what he's going to do with it, he might bring the krang back!"

While they were yelling back and forth you got closer, and kept getting closer until you were about two feet away from Donnie.

"I can hear you ya know"

Donnie jumped, before looking up to you. Just from you Height alone scared him. He's dealt with a 7 foot pig but not a 9 foot alien.

"Um I-I uh"

You could see the amazement in his eyes but also fear. You chuckled and leaned down to his height.

"Just give me the key and I'll be out of here, okay, Donatello"

You said his named firmly with confidence. He didn't expect you to have such a impact but just how you said his name alone. He went and got you the key.

"O-Of course"

He quickly went and got you the krang key, he reached his arms towards you to his fullest since you were so tall. He had thw krang key on both hands like how you would hold a small puppy, carefully in both hands. When you took the key tour hand brushed against his for a second since your hands were really big the key looked like a tower shaped crystal. He was blushing, but if you looked you couldn't tell at first. But you could. You took the key and looked at it carefully to see if it was fake or not. They didn't know how to react but three more eyes opened and stared at the krang key, analyzing it. They all were nervous. Even Donnie and he seemed to have the most interest if you. The other three eyes closed and the one on your forehead rolled back while closing. You smiled and looked down at them all.

"Thank you, if your curious about what I'm wanna do with it, I will be ceiling it away so on one and get it"

And with that you started to leave. When you got to the portal you hended the key to a little frog looking person, but they were weirdly small, like skin and bone to a whole another level.

"Wait your just gonna a leave"

You looked back at Donnie.

"Why of course I'm a busy man but if you need me just shout my name, loud and proud or try a ritual that probably wouldn't work."

You were about to walk through the portal when you remembered you never them your name.

"Oh and before I forget..."

You turned around. And their attention was put on you.

"The names y/n. Remember I might be your next savior"

You chuckled before turning back around and walking into the portal with the weirdly skinny frog, leaving the turtles April, Casey, and splinter behind.

A/n:so the other idea I forgot. I hope you enjoyed.
