  ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ  𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐎𝐍.

𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘: jungkook thinks he's helping you get over your fear of riding a horse and in reality, you're trying to get over your fear of asking out your childhood best friend. 𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆: jungkook/reader 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓. 2.6k 𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒/𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐄. light use of foul language, friends to lovers, jungkook is a horse loving country boy, pure fluff 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒. this could be read as a standalone drabble, but is an interlude in between "the dancefloor" and "the phone call" of the farmhouse series. find the full series here! 

  when jungkook found out that you were scared shitless of riding a horse, he made it his mission to help you get rid of your fear.

  you could only hide it for so long, dodging your friends’ invitations to join them on the trails. your sleepy town on the countryside was known for its stunning visuals, marked by crisp emerald woods, open fields and a river that wrapped around the borders. nothing felt more freeing than enjoying nature in the sweltering summer with wind in your hair.

  it wasn’t always like this, of course. you used to love riding as a little girl, having learned at a young age. however, as years went on, it fell to the back of your mind and the idea was now not only foreign, but frightening. 

  “you’re a full-blown equestrian,” you blinked at the shelf in front of you, full of a myriad of trophies, photos and framed ribbons in every colour of the rainbow.

  in his efforts to convince you to let him help you tackle your fears, jungkook asked you to come over. you were a bit hesitant for multiple reasons, especially when he began leading you to his bedroom, but you were surprised at what he wanted you to see. you were always distracted when you were with jungkook, sometimes by his charming smile and lip piercings, other times it was his chiseled arms decorated with tattoos. however, not today, as you peered into his room and your jaw dropped.

  jungkook stood with his arms crossed around his chest, a smug smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “well? if there’s anyone to help you with this, it’s me.”

  from eventing to cross-country, it was evident that jungkook was more than a well-seasoned equestrian. you glanced over at one framed picture, depicting jungkook in a cowboy hat and denim, hoisting a large, golden cup in his arms. beside him was his horse, leo, and his other arm held a helmet. you were in disbelief.

  “honestly, that’s really freaking impressive. no joke.”

   it was definitely not something you expected from jungkook, at least visually. if you didn't know him personally, you would be scared of him. big man with tattoos and piercings, strong gaze. at the end of the day, though, his energy was nothing short of boy-next-door with a heart of gold. it was endearing, seeing pictures of him lovingly hold his favourite horse.

  “then, you can trust me. i’ll be a great teacher.” jungkook grinned.

  you sighed. “i don’t know -”

  “you used to love riding! you’re just nervous, we can fix that fast,” jungkook insisted and you weren’t sure if it was the array of awards in front of you or his countryside charm, but you grew more and more convinced.

  or, maybe it was because you were standing in jungkook’s bedroom and the idea of it made your stomach flutter with butterflies. it was worrisome to be spending even more time with jungkook amidst your seemingly unresolved feelings. it only added to the anxieties surrounding getting on a horse for the first time in years.

  you weren’t sure if you could even call what you had for jungkook to be romantic feelings. he was your closest friend, but over the past few weeks, the two of you found yourself constantly in situations that made your heart pound and you couldn’t begin to understand why. however, he gave you the kind of mixed signals that made you question everything you were thinking. for now, the only thing you could do was push forward and prioritize your friendship. it was hard, moving back into town and finding out that your childhood best friend got hot.

  “let me be a good friend and help you out,” he said, turning around and gesturing for you to follow him. you had to swallow the “f” work like poison.

  it was perhaps these conflicting thoughts that led you to follow jungkook to the back of his house, sending waves of relief through your body to be away from such an intimate space like his room. you were too scared to even look around when you were there, only barely making it past the door frame and peeked your head in to see his shelves.

  it didn’t clock in, though, that jungkook was leading you to his stables.

  jungkook looked up at the sky, “it’s a beautiful day,” he half-sang, nudging you.

  the golden rays of the summer sun were blinding and hugged your entire body, while the light breeze in the atmosphere painted a picture perfect scene to head to the trails. you didn’t realize you were pouting until jungkook noticed and laughed at you. 

  “i can’t believe i’m doing this,” you muttered, as you took in the sights.

  the jeon family built their stables generations ago and while you were unaware of jungkook’s equestrian success, you knew that they were always known for owning a number of beautiful horses, partly because jungkook’s father used to be heavily interested in breeding horses. the two of you trudged over, as you entered the tack room. the storage area held space for miscellaneous equipment, like saddles, bridles and other grooming equipment.

  jungkook suddenly turned around and gave you a once over, which you raised your eyebrows at. did he just check you out? he noticed your expression and his ears tinted the slightest shade of pink.

  “oh, uh, sorry. i just wanted to make sure you were wearing appropriate clothing to ride,” he awkwardly scratched his neck and you nodded - a little too vigorously - in understanding.

  “i should be fine,” you replied, forcing a chuckle. you were wearing leggings and a t-shirt, as well as a pair of boots. you’d just finished work for the day and you always opted for comfortable clothing.

  he then passed you a helmet and a body vest for you to slip on. “see! that’s the spirit,” jungkook encouraged, snickering when you sent him a death glare in response.

  with the necessary equipment in his arms, jungkook waited for you to adjust your riding gear before leading you to the stalls. 

  “you know leo, this here is orion and that’s astra. . .” he introduced, gesturing to each horse. “and this is virgo. you’ll be riding her today.”

  “wait - all of your horses are named after constellations.”

  you stared at jungkook, who stared blankly at you right back. astronomy was your life-long hobby, which you introduced jungkook to as kids. at around age nine or ten, you couldn’t go more than a little while without mentioning your love for it in a conversation. now, when you left town years ago, the jeon family had a sizeable number of horses that was likely impossible for just jungkook to maintain on his own. none of these horses were ones you met before. these names were recent and after you were gone.

  it was as if a lightbulb went off above jungkook’s head, as his expression turned sheepish, “oh, yeah. i ended up having to sell our old horses when i didn’t have the money or time to care for them. these beauties came along within the past few years and the constellation theme just kinda came about.”

  “i wonder from where,” you commented dryly.

  jungkook rolled his eyes. “don’t get a big head. i just thought it sounded cool,” he brushed it off, but he was now pink in the cheeks.

  you didn’t tease him further - mostly because he began setting up the bridle and you realized you actually had to ride the horse. she was a beautiful morgan horse of a deep chestnut colour and looked similar to your childhood horse, marshmallow. it was unfortunate that you never got to say goodbye to marshmallow, as he passed away in between your last summer in town and your recent move back.

  finally, you, jungkook and virgo were outside. the fields behind his house were vast and you could see pops of yellow throughout, indicating specks of sunflowers. you turned to jungkook, a pout on your face.

  “wipe that frown off, it makes you look ugly,” jungkook said.

  “wow, you think i’m pretty then?” you retorted, making sure that your pout became more exaggerated.

  “shut up. are you ready?” he rolled his eyes. “don’t forget, it’s all about communication and trust between you and the horse. safety is key, so always approach calmly and confidently. you remember the basic aids and how to mount?”

  you looked at him, then at virgo, and back to jungkook again. you didn’t verbalize it, but you were essentially frozen in your tracks. you were pretending that you weren’t by goofing around, but you were scared shitless. even though you were trying to hide it, it was obvious that jungkook saw right through you.

  “what?” you asked innocently.

  jungkook groaned. “come on. you’ve done this before, you have nothing to be scared of.” he stopped his teasing and his features transformed with seriousness. he was genuinely trying to be encouraging at this point.

  you sighed. it wasn’t clear where this random fear came from, but imagining yourself on a horse made you feel like you were going to throw up. squeezing your eyes shut tight, you tried calming yourself down, while keeping the same image in mind.

  he was right, though. you weren’t a total beginner, you were just freaked out at the entire idea of getting on a horse. you took a deep breath and slowly approached virgo. you reached out for her reins.you then placed your left foot into the stirrup, while grasping onto the front of the saddle for support. then, in one swift motion, you swung your right leg over the horse’s back and gently settled yourself. you heard jungkook let out a low whistle.

  you shot a look at him. “what, am i doing something wrong already?” it was already getting hard for you to breathe at a consistent pace, even though your movements were efficient and one of the hardest parts was already over.

  “nah, not at all. you sure you’re actually scared?” jungkook asked. “you got on her like a pro with no directions! no mounting block, too!”

  “you never offered one,” you hissed. “and no, i’m not scared. i’m only shaking for no reason. just something i like to do.” this was through gritted teeth, as you looked out in the distant horizon to distract yourself. virgo was calm and didn’t scare you off in any way, but you knew that if you looked down, you were going to start freaking out.

  jungkook approached closer and you nearly flinched when he put a gentle hand on your own hand, where your knuckles were turning into the colour of paper from gripping the reins so tightly. you loosened the tenseness in your shoulders ever so slightly when he rubbed your hand in an attempt to calm you down.

  “you got this.”

  you gulped, finally meeting his eyes. they softened at the contact and you felt your heart begin to race again - but this time, it wasn’t because of the horse. 

  he inspected your form and nodded in satisfaction. “looks good. you might want to sit up a bit straighter.”

“like this?” you moved ever so slightly, but froze when virgo shifted underneath you.

  jungkook chuckled. “relax. just like this.” 

  nothing could have prepared you for the way he reached over, gently placing his hand on your torso and helping you with your posture. your heart began pounding and you looked away again.

  “better,” he murmured, hands still on your waist. then, realizing that he’d been in the same position for a little too long, retracted his arms like fire. if you weren’t losing your mind, you would have laughed at him.

  eventually, like jungkook insisted, you got the hang of things in no time. knowing how to ride wasn’t something you could just forget, but ridding yourself of your anxieties was a different beast to tackle. you had to admit, it was so much easier with jungkook’s help. he cracked jokes and the way his tattoos decorated his muscular arms in broad daylight were incredibly distracting, but he was patient and kind to you.

  by sundown, you were confident enough to see the trails with jungkook. the two of you went and at the end of the evening, you made it to the top of a hill with him. the sight was nothing less than breathtaking. there was just something so captivating about the way the clouds faded against streaks of lilac and the wide fields felt infinite. jungkook stood just a few feet away from you, with his horse, leo, at his side and was also looking out at the skyline.

  you gazed outwards in admiration. "getting over my fears was so worth the view."

  "i would never, ever trade this view for anything. i love it here," jungkook sighed. "in town, you get to see the stars and the fields and everything with no bright lights or loud cars."

  and, it was true. there was a beauty that could only be found at the top of a hill in a small town surrounded by nothing but dirt and water. regardless, even if it was just dirt and water that bordered your tiny town, it was dirt and water that could have been handcrafted by mother nature herself. there was a certain serenity found in watching the sunset in the countryside with a man that made your stomach turn with butterflies every time you looked in his eyes. you smiled to yourself and to virgo, as if there was a secret shared between you both about jungkook.

  “i told you to believe in me,” he remarked, eying the way you patted virgo. “you’re no city girl. you’re meant to be out here with m - uh, us.”

  you couldn’t turn your head faster after your ears perked up at the last word. was he going to say “me” and stopped himself? jungkook cleared his throat and looked away once more.

  “yeah. . .maybe i am,” you replied, biting your lip. 

  “you should’ve seen yourself!” jungkook suddenly exclaimed, nearly bouncing off his feet. “you were great and virgo loves you. hell, you’re better with her than any of the boys are - she almost trampled jimin one time.”

  you scoffed. “and you thought it would be a good idea to let me practice with her? you know, if you wanted to kill me today, just say that.”

  “but you survived,” jungkook smiled, stepping ever so slightly towards you. without hesitation, he brushed a hair away from your eyes.

  you hoped he didn’t notice your breath completely stopping. bravery was forever a challenge to catch and bottle up like a firefly, seemingly impossible to have at times. it took bravery to face your fears today. somehow, the next words that came out of your mouth took even more.

  after a beat, you found your voice. “jungkook. . .” you trailed off and he looked at you, curiously. “do you. . .wanttogetdinnerthisweekend?”

  the words were jumbled and rapid, spilling out of your mouth. you thought you tripped over them, given jungkook’s raised eyebrows. you opened your mouth to repeat yourself, but he then broke out into a smile.

  “yes. yes, of course.”

  bravery came in many forms, whether it was falling for your best friend or taking a dive out of a plane. it lived in every sunset that dared to be more beautiful than the last and the leaps of faith sleeping within someone that would never see the light of day without the right person to push them forward.

Hi! I'm a new follower! @hagelpaimon recommended you for this specific request. If you're interested, I was wondering if you could write some Bayverse fluff for me.

F!Reader has a southern accent and even though it isn't thick, there are certain words she says that makes her sound like a country bumpkin. And her turtle S/O (lovingly, of course) teases her for it. You can make it for each turtle or just Donnie. And you can make it NSFW if you wanna. Whatever you think fits! Thank you and happy writing 🐢💙❤️💜🧡

Thought I would crawl out of my adult cave and answer an ask that spoke to me. And as a country bumpkin (hoot hoot, very, very south georgia), I can say this hits the mark. I'm gonna do a little of all the turtles and

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

Now, as someone who grew up around people who talked like me, I assumed I could hide it well. But that wasn't until I started sending audio messages back and forth with @moxfirefly did I realized how bad it was... Now I've never tried writing a southern accent, despite having one, so bear with me.

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

Leo:

- He finds it so endearing and sweet and just can't find it in his heart to make fun of you

- Like, the way you call his name? The twang makes him smile because that means time with you

- His brothers and him obviously don't get out and talk to people, so I can imagine they're probably a lil stumped on why you sound the way you do

- Luckily, Leo is an old western movie fan, so at least he knows Cowboys.... please be patient with him

- If you're shy about the way you talk, he won't acknowledge it, but over time, he hopes you two get comfortable enough that you'll express yourself more

- Seriously, can't get over when you call him or his brother's names. Like omg they just said "Dawnie" and the way you pronounce Manhattan?

Raphael:

- Why you sound like that??

- Definitely believes you're from some weird part of New York, or God forbid Jersey

- Won't and will not understand unless you play country music for him and go like "these are my people"

- makes you a country mix, even if you don't like country. He's trying! You can't deny him that

-He says it's to make you feel "closer to home" and honestly, it lowkey works when you're feeling home sick

- He sees a cowboy film??? Prepare for him to throw a cowboy hat on your noggin

-Save a horse ride a cowboy, yeah? (I'm cringing)

Donnie:

- LOVES IT, ADORES IT

- He's really big on dialect and accents, especially for someone he fancies

- Will ask you to say certain words at random times of the day, early mornings when you haven't woken up, late at night when you're sleepy

- When you're angry???

- He has to hold out on bringing the recorder. But he's taking in every word

- Just imagine yelling at him, and he's looking at you with big doe eyes because wow... when was a country accent kinda sexy??

- He has to say one of his favorite things is when you both are whispering, and he leans down to hear you better, woof 😮‍💨

- He needs a southern girl 😤 GIVE HIM A TASTE OF THE SOUTH

Mikey:

- Will tease you, mock you, repeat every word you say... with love of course

- just expect to hear his lil giggle after you've said something particularly southern

- If you're the type to say our phrases (colder than a witches tit, you call undies breeches, you make crazy comparisons) he will adopt them and look stupid doing it

- Just imagine Mikey, surfer dude, New Yorker, saying, "I reckon"

- Like baby... please hush

- lowkey the one that helped Raph make the country mix tape, added a few personal favorites (the fucking wal-mart yodeling kid, for some reason)

- Gets you boots, even if you don't wear them, and tries really hard to convince you to dress like Barbie in her cowgirl outfit

- Never a dull moment with this doofus

........Go Dawgs

Word Count: 1,774

One month later…

“This is really happening,” you tell the two.

“I guess it is,” she nods.

“Yeah,” Leonard nods. “What are we talking about?”

Charlotte takes a deep breath, keeping her comments to herself. “I’m still surprised you’re having his baby.”

“So am I, Charls. So am I.”

“Hey. Why are you two ganging up on me?”

“We’re not,” you turn to face your friend, “are we?”

She shrugs and snatches the instructions from your hands and flips back to page one. “Okay, this- this just isn’t working. Should it be this hard to put a crib together?”

Leonard shrugs and tries to screw the bars for one of the side panels. “No.”

“No one asked you,” she snaps back.

You chuckle, “you just did.”

“I’m pretty sure it was a rhetorical question.”

She nods, pointing to him. “I knew I liked him.”

Your bottom lip sticks out as you fight the urge to fight back. Maybe a joke would be a better thing to say, lighten the mood a little. “I’m pretty sure you told me you hated him when you realized how close he was with your ex-boytoy and his best friend.”

“You’re a liar. She’s lying,” she hands him the screw he’s looking for.

“It’s okay, he didn’t like you either.”

“What?” Her head snaps over in his direction.

“I never said that. She’s lying,” he turns to you. “Stop talking, stop saying things. The changes you’re going through are making it harder on you to keep these things to yourself so just,” he shushes you.

There was a bit of tension in the air as Charlotte and Leonard finished building the crib. 

-

Two weeks later

He quickly places the latest sonogram picture back into his locker at the sound of the guys coming in.

“We missed you up there… again.” Nick claps him on the shoulder.

He's quiet and doesn't respond, which isn't like Leonard, at all. It instantly puts the troublemaker on edge.

“Where’s your head at?” Pete asks.

“You’ve been off,” Rick comments, also wondering what’s going on with his friend.

“Nothing. It’s nothing- I haven’t- shut up.” He tries to fight the urge to blurt out the truth, but he knows you aren't quite ready for anyone else to know just yet.

You're trying to plan on having a gender reveal party- or something similar to that. He can't quite remember what you said, all he knows is that if you do plan on throwing a party, you'll be stressing out a lot.

"Maybe his old lady finally has him by the- well," Nick pauses, giving the guys a second to think. "You know what I mean."

Pete shoves his friend’s shoulder while Rick throws a crumbled paper ball at him. "Knock it off, knucklehead."

"She's not like that," Leonard chimes in, defending you.

"Is it that one chick you were talking to at the bar a while back?" Pete asks, taking his arms out of his sleeves, tying them around his waist so he can cool off.

"Uh- I mean, which- uh- who are you talking about?"

"The one who's close with Charlie, right?" Nick adds.

Pete grimaces with an affirmative nod. "Yeah, her."

"She's nice," Rick adds.

"If it is that one, I like her. She keeps you in line."

The cowboy hat lover let's out a fake chuckle, "you're so nice man. Yeah, it's her."

"You finally manned up and asked her out on a real date instead of lying to yourself. Dare I say," he wipes away a fake tear. "I'm proud of you."

Pete pouts. "Wait- now I'm lost."

"What he said? We need some background information," the mustached man gestures to him and his partner in crime.

Leonard rolls his eyes and quickly nudges his locker open just enough for him to grab his helmet, except he knocks it against the inside of the door and knocks off his pictures.

"I’ll help you," Rick offers, since his locker is right next to Leonard’s. He picks up a few random pictures everyone has seen (since they're more or less likely in them) and then he stumbles across a very special one. "What's this?"

Nick furrows his brows at the question and leans over, his brows instantly shooting up when he starts at the black and white, very familiar photo. "Oh, yeah. Dude, I'm going to need some background information like now because that," he points to it. "Is not something you can easily avoid. Also, congrats. Now you'll understand my struggle."

"And, what's that?" Leonard asks, snatching the photos from Rick's hands.

"Running on five hours or less of sleep with a newborn. I mean," he glances him up and down. "That is, if you two are going to do this together and you didn't leave her high and dry because, I'm not going to lie that'd be- the ultimate dick move."

"I'm pretty sure they're together, Goose."

"We'll, I can't just assume. What if she mailed him a letter and gave him a choice but he hasn't made one yet or he did and that sonogram is a reminder of what two people can create in the heat of the moment whether they love each other or not, huh. Explain that Mav."

Rick shakes his head and slaps the back of their heads. "You two, shut up. Wolf, what happened?"

"Uh, well-" He scratches the back of his neck. "We were "seeing" each other for a bit and then she left one night and then it was over."

"Oh, that's makes sense now."

"What makes sense?" Tom asks, with Ron coming in behind him.

"We finally got the official answer about why cowboy was depressed a few months ago," Nick tells him.

"It was a girl, wasn't it?"

"Yeah."

"I already knew that."

"Okay," he pushes past Pete and Rick so he can lean against the lockers closer to the blond. "But now we know our infamous Wolfman, has some- well, I don't mean to be crass but," he claps Leonard on the shoulder (again). "He's got some excellent cowboys in his holster."

It took everyone a moment to realize what exactly Nick is talking about and everyone in the room groaned.

"I know. I know, I'm not proud of it either but it was the best I could come up with."

"So..." Tom starts.

"Yes?" Nick replies.

"Not talking to you."

"Rude."

"Are you two-"

"I'm not going to miss anything in the bubbles life." The corners of his lips twitch upwards. "We just built the crib."

"Wow..." Pete nods.

"How long did it take?" The mustached man asks.

"It would have been smoother had Charlie not tried to steal everything. I had to restart everything she did."

"Wait until the mood swings come."

Ron shakes his head with a groan, "don't remind me."

"How old are your kids again, Slider?" Pete asks.

"Tony's going to be three in four months and Lindsay just turned one."

"One already? It seems like they were just born yesterday," Leonard says.

"Wait, till you understand that feeling... dad."

Leonard groans, laying down on the bench, placing his hat over his eyes. "Shut up, Pete."

"Never."

"Better him than me."

"You're both equally bad," Tom points out, glaring at Nick.

"But now you know a little bit of what you have to look forward to," Ron nudges him.

"Yeah, oh, I remember when we first heard Bradley's heartbeat. I cried."

"The heartbeat can make any man cry," Tom points out.

"Is there something you're trying to tell us, Icepop?" Nick asks.

"You're hearing things, mother goose."

"Not helping." Leonard pushes himself up.

"The most helpful thing we can say is, congratulations again and then we call your future baby mama and pass along the same-"

"No!"

Nick and Pete glance at one another with their eyebrows raised.

"You weren't supposed to tell anyone, we're you?" Tom chimes in, asking the very question they were thinking.

"I have to go out now, come on, H-Wood."

Leonard grabs his friend by his collar, forcing him out of the room.

-

Charlotte hangs up and grabs yours and her lunch. "I owe you."

You shake your head, "no you don't."

"I do. You won."

"He squealed."

She nods, sitting down on the couch beside you. "He did. The guys know and I'm sure Viper's going to know before the end of the day."

"Never bet against me. You know that."

She sets her cup down and quickly swallows her sip so she can whine. "Don't be mean. I get it, you're the queen of bets."

"Damn right I am."

"Should you be cursing around the baby like that?"

Your smile instantly falls from your face. "Oh my god. Mini wolf's first word is going to be some curse word, isn't it?"

"As long as you don't do it often... maybe you'll be fine?"

"You're not helping!"

"Don't start crying again, please."

-

"Oh, thank god you're back- oh," Charlotte holds the door open for Leonard and the others to walk through the door. "Why are there more of you?"

"Well, they- uh-"

"We know they know but why are they here?"

"We wanted to say hi," Nick chimes in, with Pete right beside him.

She narrows her eyes at the two and sighs. "Fine, come on in. You better have brought food, at least. We do have someone who's eating for two."

"We did," Tom lifts one of the many bags they have.

"Thank god, one of you was smart."

-

You walk down the hall at the sound of many people talking, people you know you weren't expecting. "Hello?"

"Hi, baby." Leonard pecks your cheek, "and baby." He places his hand on your belly, smiling. "How is our little bubbles?"

"Growing... but I was actually thinking of changing their name."

"Oh?"

"What do you think about mini wolf?"

"I think our baby's going to be very confused when they're born."

You nod, "yeah but I want to have a cuter nickname because you make me and mini wolf happy."

He smiles. "I’m happy to know that but I think bubbles was always a cute nickname. Now come on." He grabs your hand, "we brought a feast."

"Really?"

"Of things you probably shouldn't be eating but, we'll deal with better now."

-

"So," Nick says, extending the word. "Any names picked out?"

"Not yet."

"It'll come to you in the moment."

You smile and nod, "I hope so."

"Okay, we need to hear it from the source," Ron interrupts.

You furrow your brows. "Hear what?"

"What exactly happened?"

"Finally, things are getting interesting," Charlotte mutters.

"Can it, Charls."

A/N: They are meme connoisseurs, Raph doesn't understand, but is supportive. Coloring the words took way longer than I thought... I have a 6 hour car ride to the hospital so ask away!

Previous  |  Next

You got your taste in memes from your brothers

Leo and Donnie definitely have the most knowledge in memes

"Tight! So let me be, I'm here to give you customer service. and I'll set you free! (right)"

"Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up!"

It's almost completely random

They've learned not to ask what you're doing...

"Hey, what are you doing Waiting for them to play Gangnam Style..."

Mikey and Leo participate the most

At one point you were really into Bully Maguire memes

Raph was terrified of you

"I'm gonna put some dirt in your eye... W-What!? What did I do?"

Remember that video of the country guy standing on his truck with Nunchaku?

Yeah... That's a you and Mikey staple

"Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top. Sunkissed so hot it'll melt your popsicle!"

You, Leo, and Donnie are the most chaotic about it

Raph and Mikey are a little annoyed by the meme bond you guys have

"I got a plane! I got a plane! I love the fame! I love the fame! You know my name! You know my name!"

Being the 2 youngest, though, you and Mikey have something you will never have with the others

and that's having unlimited meme potential

"It's wizard time, motherfucker! Fire Ball!!"

Raph was very upset about this... ^^^

You are probably the only one allowed to chill in Donnie's lab because of your shared love of certain memes

He vocally stims in his lab and I have a feeling a lot of those are memes

"Wow... Your raps are too wack to handle. Let's do this like we do on the Discovery Channel!"

Leo is the one you go to if you want to recreate some dance you saw on TikTok

And he's very good... It should be a crime

Leo also quotes the Pedro Pascal edit that went around...

"How would you like to ride home on a real cowboy? I got a 6 pack of cold ones all nice and my roomies out all night, so you can scream my name as loud as you need to, sugar."

Is anyone surprised by that though?

"Aren't you excited? You're going to the airport tomorrow! Ehrpohort? I'm not going to the ehrpohort."

Although Raph isn't that knowledgeable in memes, he does know some

"Excuse me, brah. You're excused.... But I'm not your brah..."

Just random things they'd quote:

"I'm almost proud of you... That's the most proud of me you've ever been!"

"Give me back my gamer girl!"

"Material girl!"

"Just got diagnosed with cool guy syndrome... Now I take Adderall!"

"Ugh, you can't sit with us. Actually, Leo, I can't sit anywhere, I have hemorrhoids..."

"Look at all those chickens!"

"Is this an internal dialogue? I can't see the end of the horizon... Hastune Miku!?"

"Its really cute how you're going to defeat me with the power of friendship, but again, I am da Devil... From da Bible..."

"Hey~... What's up... It's me!"

"Whopper. Whopper. Whopper. Whopper. Junior, Double, Triple Whopper. Flame Grilled taste with perfect toppers. I rule- I rule this day!"

"You're an asshole, Leo. You are what you eat, Donnie." I'm so sorry...

"Freddy, you're supposed to be on lock down... VanessaAAAAAA!" When he's been working in the lab too much

"Nah, nah, nah nah. Nah, nah, nah nah, yeah. You're are the music in me! You know the words 'once upon a time' make you listen... There's a reason!"

"HOLD ON! HOLD ON! SO HER SISTER WAS A WITCH, RIGHT!? AND WHAT WAS HER SISTER? A PRINCESS! THE WICKED WITCH OF THE EAST, BRO... I'm gonna stab him..."

"Laloyd? That's right! It's me, your son! And it's Lloyd, Dad! No. L-l-o-y-d. I named you. You ruined my life! How can I ruin your life? I wasn't even there!"

You expect it to be quiet the day after the attack. You expect it to be still and gray outside, as if the weather itself was allowing you a moment after what happened. But as you shuffle into the kitchen with soft, fuzzy socked steps, birds chirp outside as the sun rises as and morning progresses like nothing happened at all. You find everyone talking in the kitchen, unpacking the contents of a large cardboard box. You’re barely awake, and the smell of juice and coffee and toast wafts through the room, starting to pull you from your groggy stupor to your senses. 

“Morning,” Leo says, catching your eye with a warm smile that makes your stomach flip as you slowly make your way to the fridge in a desperate search for coffee. You flash a smile back briefly, humming in agreement. It’s so early that your defenses aren’t all the way up yet, and that small gesture is more than enough to send little firecrackers of warmth fizzing through you. You feel the caffeine gradually entering your system as you watch them take everything out of the box, assessing it as they go. A short while later, by the time you’re done with your coffee there’s an array of weapons, smaller boxes, bottles and containers strewn across the table.

During their discussions of the box and its contents, Leo makes a point to explain about how ambrosia, nectar, and the different weapons and metals work. Everyone else supplements as he goes, and soon, you know just about as much as they do. For a moment, you briefly considered trying a little bit of ambrosia or nectar to fix this terrible burning ripping ache in your upper back. It hurts worse than cutting teeth and feels like your bones are grinding against each other, but after hearing about the consequences of what ambrosia and nectar can do to you, you decide against it. It's probably not worth the risk. You were also mildly concerned it might somehow make you feel worse, which is the last thing you need right now. 

"So," Frank asks, watching your eyes roam over the various weapons laid out before you, "see anything you like?"

At the other end of the table, Percy chuckles, taking a sip of his coke.

"Yeah, you're gonna need one…" he says, nodding at them. You take a closer look, your eyes quickly landing on the shotgun resting in the middle of the table. It seems like the obvious choice, and you stare at it for a moment. You pick it up, inspecting it as a chuckle passes through the room. 

“Chiron will be happy to hear that,” Annabeth says, remembering how long that gun has sat in the weapons shed, “he’s been trying to get rid of that thing for years.” 

After Frank goes over how it works and all the usual gun and weapon safety, supplemented by Piper and Hazel, you take your new weapon, getting a feel for it. It’s a little awkward, trying to find a way to carry it that doesn’t feel clunky or uncomfortable. 

“So, what? Am I just supposed to walk around with this tucked under my arm like a newspaper?” you ask rhetorically. Hazel takes it, inspecting it for something. 

“A lot of weapons are enchanted,” she starts, brow furrowing with concentration, “so you can carry them around easier, hide them from mortals…” she murmurs, fiddling around with it until she finds what she’s looking for. 

“Aha.” She clicks a switch and it shrinks down into a little dangling earring shaped just like a shotgun, complete with a clasp closure. She hands it to you. 

“Open it up to grow it,” she says, doing just that, “and do this to shrink it back down.” She demonstrates, showing you how to work the little switch that turns it back into an earring. You open it just enough to put it in your ear, noting how lightweight it is for a literal shotgun. The bullets are celestial bronze, and since that only affects monsters and demigods, as long as you don’t shoot yourself or your friends, everything will be fine.

Over the course of the next few days, you’re surprised to find that you’re actually starting to bond with everyone. You’ve fallen into something of an easy routine that was only awkward at first. Now your days are comprised of making breakfast, playing more board games and video games than you can ever remember playing, all of you getting absolutely destroyed by Hazel at Just Dance, a variety of team building exercises, movie nights, making dinner together, then procrastinating going to sleep to stay up telling stories and talking and catching up. Of all the places you’ve been, of all the things you’ve hated, even you can’t say you hate this too much. 

You’ve been ignoring and avoiding the shrew - sorry, Calypso - as much as possible. Given that you’re all stuck in a house indefinitely, it seems like the best way to avoid unnecessary conflict.

For the most part, it seems to be working. You only butt heads when she goes out of her way to start shit with you, those snide remarks and attempts at picking fights that don’t sit well with you. Usually whatever beef or fights she starts are finished after you deliver a few brutal but true comebacks all based in fact, then she storms off to sulk by herself. You wondered if someone would go check on her, but based on the lack of reactions it gets and how often she repeats the same scoff, rolling eyes, storming off in a huff combo, it doesn’t seem like it’s out of the ordinary for her. 

Aside from that, for the most part it’s essentially been you and Leo and his friends. Setting aside the occasional roast/power struggle with she who must not be named, things are basically going okay. You’d even go as far to say as it’s kind of nice. You don’t hate mornings quite as much as you used to, and being around other people isn’t the same kind of painful as it has been in the past. You’re starting to get… comfortable around them. It’s weird. New. 

All these thoughts swirl around the currents of your mind as you lay in bed, once again unable to sleep. There’s a part of you, a very loud part, that insists this is all horrible. You can’t trust people, and thinking you can, even starting to think you can is a mistake. Not a trivial one either, a mistake that could end very, very badly for you. The second you get attached, the second you start to put down roots and expect consistency, you make yourself vulnerable. In spite of that, in spite of the fact that that voice is probably right, you can’t deny how you’re starting to find yourself wanting to be around everyone more. Even though you still act inconvenienced by the board games and tired of all the movies and like you couldn’t care less about their stories about camp, you still play, you still watch, you still listen. 

You can’t deny that maybe some of the hype around having friends, having sustainable long term relationships in your life might be… worth the hype. That realization sinks in, and it’s terrifying. If it actually is a good thing you’ve been missing out on… you have no idea how to cope with that. What are you supposed to do if you actually want the people that abandon you? ‘You’re left cold, and miserable, and alone.’ You think. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. You let out a loud, frustrated sigh and roll over in your cold, uncomfortable bed that always feels too fresh, silently reprimanding yourself for thinking about the one thing you didn’t want to. The pit of dread continues to grow in your stomach as your mind spirals and spirals, until you find yourself outside Leo’s door. 

Within moments, you’re straddling his lap and pushing your tongue past his lips. He tastes so good, you want more and more of him. He touches you, hands squeezing electrically along your skin as he kisses you deeper. You feel the corner of his mouth quirk up as you tangle your hands in his hair. It’s obvious to him how desperate you are for him, and he’s happy to provide you with whatever you want from him right now. You tug on his hair in a desperate attempt for him to be even closer to you, and he moans into your mouth at the feeling. 

You shift your hips to feel him harden up beneath you better, and he lets out a halted sigh against your lips. This time it’s you smirking into the kiss. You grind down against his cock, feeling him grow harder with every movement of your hips. Everything about you is so enticing, and the feeling of your soft, warm cunt grinding against him is already making his head spin. He’s melting under your touch, responding so well to you, and you want to make him moan again. He’s had you pinned below him, scratching his back and biting his shoulder more times than you can count, it seems like the least you can do is return the favor. 

You move down, kissing his neck and listening to his heavy breath like your favorite song. You suck hickeys against his soft skin, grinding against him and feeling him get more lost in your touch with every flick of your tongue, every movement of your hips. Getting him to grip your hips, breathe all heavy like this is one of the best feelings, and normally you can’t get enough of it. Tonight, you want more. You lift yourself off his lap a little, and he whines at the loss of contact. You can feel his voice reverberate against your lips, and it brings out a fresh wave of that animalistic hunger you have for him. 

You tug his cock out of his sweatpants, and his breath halts. He’s hung like a horse, and even when he’s rock hard, his cock bounces when you pull it out. You squeeze him, pumping his cock to get him warmed up for you. He’s heavy and warm against you, and you can’t quite wrap your hand around him all the way. His breath hitches, growing heavier with every stroke until he’s panting. Each vein throbs at your touch, in perfect time with his racing heart. You stopped kissing his neck as much at some point, and your breath fans soft over his neck and shoulder in little puffs. 

You reach into his pocket, pulling a condom out of thin air. You never used to think it would be that useful of a skill to have, but it’s come in handy more times than you can count. You take your hand off him long enough to get the condom on, and his chest swirls with warmth. It’s such an intimate gesture, and it makes him throb for you even more under your touch. You make him dizzy like this, with that way you look at him like you’re hungry or something. You tug off your shirt and panties, a task he’s more than happy to help with. It’s not the first time he’s seen you naked, but he’s entranced by how beautiful you are every single time. This time is no exception, and his eyes keep falling on the soft little lines where your legs and hips meet. 

You stroke him once or twice more for good measure, before lifting up your hips to line him up with your entrance. The tip barely kisses your soft folds before his head is spinning. You hover above him for a moment, letting him revel in the feeling, before sinking down on him.

“O-oh, fuck…” he chokes out when you’re fully seated on his lap. You both moan, adjusting to the feeling of him being fully sheathed in your gummy walls. Neither of you can remember a time when he was this deep inside you, and it makes both of you dizzy. The tip of his cock is kissing against your cervix, and you're sure you can both feel how the bulge in your stomach is bigger than usual. His grip on your hips tightens as he leans in, desperate to kiss you. Before he can, you push him flat against the bed. His eyes widen in surprise as he hits the mattress, and you can feel his cock throbbing inside you from the suddenness of the gesture. You lean forward, bringing your lips to his ear, so close he can smell your perfume. 

“Down, boy.” You command, a small note of playfulness to your voice that has his stomach clenching. The feeling of your breath and lips against his ear is enough to make his breath hitch. He’s happy to follow your lead, do whatever you want him to, so he stays down. Even when he wants to grab your hips and piston up into you, when he wants you to move or kiss him or do something, he stays down. He feels you smirk after a moment of agonizing waiting and bated breath. 

“Good…” you say with a light chuckle. Unable to ignore how dizzy his cock is making you any longer, you start to move. You drag yourself up and down his length at an agonizingly slow pace, eliciting a moan from his pretty lips. The drag of his cock feels better than you remember, and you still can’t get over how deep inside you he is like this. He’s stretching you out so good, every vein and curve of his cock hits those perfect spots inside you, sending electric pleasure through your nervous system. You squeeze and clench around him as you bounce your hips, grinding down on his cock. 

Your pace speeds up, and Leo lets out a long moan below you. You place his hands on your thighs, and he grabs on tight, needing something to hold on to. You place your hands on his chest, feeling his ragged breaths go up and down. You dig your nails into his shoulders, and he shudders at the feeling. Your gummy walls grip him so tight, every soft bump and ridge of your wet cunt squeezes him just right. You clamp down on him, and he lets out a whine as you milk his cock, lips inches away from his. 

“You like that?” You ask, voice low and sending shivers down his spine. He nods his head vigorously, looking up at you through thick eyelashes, his eyes heavy with lust. 

“Yes.” He whimpers, panting and squirming beneath you. You smile dangerously, beginning to speed up even more. He loses his sense of time, his grip on the world around him, he loses track of everything that’s not you and how good you make him feel. Every noise, every moan and whimper and whine, every gasp and shuddering breath is music to your ears. You’ve never found anyone who sounds as nice as Leo does when you sink down on his thick cock.  

He gets louder as he gets closer, growing restless under you. He squirms and writhes even more, squeezing your hips and pulling you down on him, desperate for more friction. You can tell he’s close from the way his eyes start to roll back, and you are too. You’re tightening up around him, and there’s only a few moments before you’ll both be coming undone. 

“F-fuck,” he chokes out, desperately grabbing at your hips, “please, please, please…” he whines, babbling incoherently, begging you so sweetly for release. You lower your lips tantalizingly close to his, breath fanning over his face.

“Since you asked so nicely…” you murmur against his mouth, pushing your tongue past his lips and tugging harshly on his hair. He moans shamelessly into your mouth, bucking up into you and hitting that spot inside you over and over. You clamp down on him as he ruts up into you, stomach clenching and balls tightening as his cock throbs. He throws his head back, eyes squeezed shut, and finally releases everything he’s been building up for you. 

“Shit- fuck! Gods, I love you,” he pants. Everything about him is enough to send you over the edge, but it’s his voice that finally does it. Your legs shake as you’re blinded by pleasure, by the head of his cock rubbing that spot inside you. You guide each other through your release, milking out as much pleasure as you can. 

When you’re both too sensitive and exhausted to play anymore, you lift yourself off him slowly. Before you can even think about sneaking back off to your room, you feel his muscular arms wrap around you, pulling you close. 

“Where do you think you’re going?” he asks playfully, voice still croaky from before. He kisses your jawline and cheek, wherever he can reach really, in little bursts of warmth against your skin. He pulls you closer so you're lying on your back, then flops on top of you, settling into your soft skin and familiar touch. He’s still bear hugging your waist and his face is buried in your chest. You don't think you could get out from under him if you tried. You find yourself scratching his back and playing with his soft curls absentmindedly. As your fatigue starts to catch up to you and sleep draws nearer, you notice it worked again. Fucking Leo’s brains out made that hollow, panicked feeling go away again. Something about his dick must be magical, because no matter how sticky and stubborn those awful creeping feelings are, he finds a way to get rid of them every time. You haven't considered that it's not the sex or the way he stretches you out on his thick cock and makes your eyes roll, but how sweetly he speaks to you, how he never lets you leave without making sure you've been properly kissed and cuddled. Being told you're loved doesn't hurt either. 'I just need to fuck him a couple more times to get rid of this itch,' you think, 'a few more times. I just need him… I need him…' Before you can finish the thought, you're out like a light, warm and safe in his embrace. 

You wake up suddenly after a dreamless sleep. It's still dark out, but it won't be for too long. You should get back to your room before everyone else wakes up and risk someone finding out about this. You barely manage to pull yourself out from under Leo, and tug your clothes back on, creeping silently into the hall. You really tired him out, you muse silently, closing the door quietly. You're glad you got away with this, once again not raising any suspicion. You turn to go down the hall to your room, only to be met face to face with Nico. 

Shit. 

You're both frozen, dead in your tracks, unsure how to process this, of what to do. You're barely dressed, holding your sticky panties in one hand with hickies all over your neck and chest and thighs. As if that wasn't damning enough, he just saw you leaving Leo’s room, barely able to walk. It's not that hard to piece all of this together. Before you can fully start panicking, you ramp up your sex appeal as high as it will go. You grab him in a choke hold with your magic, biting your lip and batting your eyes up at him, letting out a soft giggle. 

"Let's just keep this between us, huh?" You say, voice low and sultry, barely breaking the still silence of the night. It's silent for a moment as you wait for his reaction. Then he bursts out laughing. You drop the seductive expression on your face in shock as he claps a hand over his mouth, trying to stifle the noise. When he sees the look on your face, he's overcome with a fresh wave of laughter. After a few minutes, he gets it under control. 

"Sorry," he mutters breathlessly, trying not to laugh again. He crosses his arms, looking at you amused, while you stand there in shock. "Does this usually work? The whole…" He mimics your previous gestures, batting his eyes and biting his lip. He even twirls a strand of shaggy dark hair for dramatic effect, turning your confusion and embarrassment into good natured laughter at how easily he nailed you. 

"Wow," you state, still a little shocked. "That's the first time that didn't work…" you trail off, the rest of your question hangs clear between you. Why didn't it work? He chuckles quietly.

"Children of Eros cant use their powers on people that aren't compatible. I have a boyfriend, not a girlfriend, so you're… not really my type," he trails off. You let out a soft disbelieving laugh as his words sink in. You just tried to magically seduce a gay man. Of course it wouldn't work. 

"This was fun, but I gotta…" he gestures vaguely behind him, then melts into the shadows before you can blink. You stand in the dark, completely stunned at the bizarre and suddenness of the interaction. You turn to finally go back into your room, and it dawns on you that that's the first piece of information you've gotten about being a child of Eros. You make a mental note to interrogate him tomorrow, try and find out if he knows anything else about you. His words keep repeating in your head, and you find them strangely comforting. You realize that there's at least some people who aren't attracted to you or view you as a sex object.

You didn't expect to feel so relieved by that. You ruminate on this as you crawl into your cold, stiff bed, and try to ignore the painfully itchy burning ache in your upper back. It comes and goes, but it's definitely been getting worse. The only thing you can find to sooth you from everything swirling and storming around your mind is the memories of Leo’s touch ghosting over your body. You're also excited at the prospect of potentially having someone you can get an honest, unbiased, un-horny opinion from. Being able to talk to someone without them thinking about what they'll get out of it from you. You don't remember the last time you had that.

Oooh maybe 14 for fictional kisses for Hangman?? Poor boy just needs a pretty, starry night! (and kisses!)

Anon, I fully agree. This was a very cute request! I definitely listened to Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves while writing it. Hope you enjoy!

Pairing: Hangman Adam Page x OFC. Prompts: Kissing under the stars. Rating: G. Warnings/Content: None; just fluff! Word Count: 675.

(I don’t own gif; credit to cowboyshit!)

She laid her head down on her folded hands and took in a deep, content breath. Fireflies drifted ahead and crickets sang around them. She stretched out on her stomach and Adam sat beside her, his knee slightly rested against her butt. A book rested in his lap. One of hers. It was well-worn, clearly loved. She had her favorite pages dogeared and he paid extra attention to those. The pages stopped turning. The warmth of his hand bled through the back of her thin shirt and she shut her eyes.

“If you get this one,” he started and she felt his fingertip tracing a shape into her shoulder blade. Accentuate the points that were stars. “I’m gonna eat my hat.”

“I hope you don’t like that hat too much.”

She wiggled and he snorted, made a sound like he sucked on his teeth. He traced the shape again then settled his hand onto her lower back. A thoughtful humming sound built up in her chest as she considered what he had drawn out. It had been a joke at first, Adam trying to get her to guess what constellation he mapped out. Then it just became something that they did to get away. The pair looked forward to these nights. Away from everything and everyone, no city skyline and just the natural light of above. Well, and the little electric lantern Adam used to read.

“It’s a hard one,” he said. He patted the small of her back. “Promise I won’t tell anyone if you don’t know it.”

“Are you trying to psych me out, cowboy? Gimme a second.”

She stretched her arms forward and rolled to her back on the blanket. To be fair, she grabbed for his discarded hat and set it on her face so she couldn’t cheat. It smelled like him, like whatever the hell it was he used to get his golden hair to smell so good. She laced her fingers across her tummy and Adam’s thumb gently traced along the edges of her fingers, her fingernails. Slow, delicate touches that made her smile in the dark. Warmed her up when it got a little cold.

“...Leo?”

There was a pause of silence and then the hat was lifted off her face. She squinted one eye at him and all Adam could do was smile at her in that soft way of his. He held the hat up and turned it one way, then the other. He shook his head.

“This hat and I have been through a lot, you know. It’s been a fine hat. The image of grace under fire.”

Just as he seemed prepared to give it a eulogy, she giggled and sat up. She took the hat from his hands and set it on his head. Cradled his face in one hand and swept his hair back behind his ear.

“It is a fine hat,” she agreed. “It’d be a shame to see it get eaten like that.”

They sat that way for a while, content to just look at each other. Steadily, he leaned in and she followed. He pulled her sideways into his lap and she loosely wrapped her arms around his neck. He kissed her bottom lip, her upper lip, then set his lips completely against hers. Slow and soft, a calm kind of kiss that could soothe any wound. And hell, did she know that they had some. His hands settled against her lower back and his fingers slightly curled in to keep her close.

“Not going anywhere, Adam,” she said to him quietly. “It’s nice here.”

He kissed her again and when she gently guided him to lay back, he went easily. His hat fell to the picnic blanket and she curled up against his side, his arm around her. She could feel him looking at her and she tilted her head up. Blue eyes met hers and even with all the world’s stars above them, the way they connected couldn’t be contested.

“It is, darlin',” he said. He sighed out into the night. “It’s good.”

[matrixxsystem]

I can't not tell you guys the story now-

buckle up sluts this so much more comfort and fluff than I've ever written before-

This is how Leo found Marmalade This is a western AU where after the invasion the surface of New York was too triggering so they ran off to the middle of nowhere to try and heal. CW: This AU is a little dark, it wont be explored in full but there might be mentions of dealing with mental illness and having PTSD so just be a lil warned, but this is supposed to be just a lil one off about how he found his lil lady :3

Boots With The Spurrs

The sun had just reached the apex of the sky, heat beating down with such a vengeance you'd think someone owed it money or something.. Though lets be real, it wasn't like it was any cooler yesterday or the day before. The slider never minded though, he loved the sun and all that came with it. And that cool summer breeze that nearly blew his hat off, even as he held on while the wind shoved him back towards the house, or tired to at least- He loved that too. It was so clear each night and so quiet every morning.. The air was so clean, and the grass was so soft.. The first time he stepped foot on the property of their new home he spent a good hour just laying outside and taking it all in. He couldn't remember why exactly him and his family came out here, but it'd been maybe five or six years since they moved now, and it was a hell of an adjustment sure, any city boy would be turned on his head being stuck out in the middle of god knows where. But even when he missed some of the busy aspects, the bright lights and colors, the smells and constant chatter of people, he could only remind himself that there was a reason they left the city. Something about everyone's mental health, about needing space and time or whatever vague excuse Donnie told him each time he asked.

There was a small town not far from where they lived, maybe a twenty minute walk or so, and five minutes if they rode horseback. Oh yeah, didn't I mention? They bought a farm. Yeah, They bought a plot of land that was just outside a small town, fixed the place up, and since Donnie loves plants and Mikey loves animals it seemed fitting to start trying to grow things and really leaning into the towns rustic aesthetic. Who knew they had green thumbs.. Well… Fuck okay who knew they had metaphorical green thumbs- And would be oddly good farmers?? Yeah, me neither. Anyway, after the first two years things really took off for the brothers. And cause I can read your mind, don't worry, Aprils there too, she got a job working at the local news station, her and Mayhem easily became a hit. And Casey Jr came along, and Cass, hell even Barry decided he might as well tag along and make sure the brothers don't get into anymore weird time altering shenanigan's. And after Splinter.. Passed, it helped having everyone be there with them. Leo looked back up at the sky, trying to read the clouds to see if there was any sign of rain, maybe if he could convince the others.. They'd let him go into town for a bit, they needed food soon anyway right?

Oh yeah, second thing about this story. This is one where Leo lost his arm, yeah no, when Mikey pulled him from the prison dimension Kraang was just a little faster and dug his claws into Leo's arm, tearing it from his body as Mikey rushed to close the portal and save what was left of his brother. So yeah, most of the time he spent healing from that is just a blurred mess to him now, then he woke up in the turtle tank out in the country one day. He remembers people by his bedside in the medbay talking about it, asking Leo or trying to ask how he felt, if he wanted to go anywhere, if there was anything he wanted to do outside the city. Anytime it's brought up he's always teased about how he only said things like "I wanna be a cowboy baaabyyyy" or "I just wanna live on a ranch, and sit on a porch swing, with my boyfriend.." (He did not have a boyfriend, or know anyone who could even come close at the time) So they continued to poke fun at his responses, which he blames the pain medicine he was on at the time for.

Leo sighed a little as he sat on the old wooden stairs, rolling his eyes at the audible creek that came from the shift in weight. He took the very cowboy-esk hat from his head waving it in front of his face, trying to get a little more of a breeze to cool him off. He'd just been out moving the pipes Donnie ordered to make he's own watering system for the plants, he wanted to start a new patch on the other side of the house and Leo just knew he'd be bribed into doing all the dirty work somehow.. Though he'd do it if asked, he knew that something bad happened to all his brothers before they moved that left them all a little less able then they used to be. For Donnie his back got hurt badly, most days he was fine but some days he'd get these real bad flare ups and he couldn't put any weight on his back or be on his feet for more then maybe fifteen minutes at a time. Leo liked to call it his "No Bones" days, since he'd usually end up just rag doll-ing in his bed all day. It was actually pretty scary the first few times it happened, Leo wasn't sure why everyone else was so calm that his brother couldn't move. But after a while and a couple explanations he didn't fully understand he came to accept that for Dee it's just something that happens when he overworks himself.. For Raph he lost sight in one of his eyes and hates being snuck up on, there were scars over the eye but they didn't look like any animal Leo had ever seen, he didn't ask though. He knew he didn't like talking about it, none of his brothers did really. Even Mikey, who was an open book all other times.. He had some faint scars from his hands up his forearms, and if he used his hands too much they'd start shaking or locking up, he always blames him drawing too much when he was younger but Leo knew deep down there was something else he just wasn't saying. But like any other time Leo was able to quickly shake those thoughts from his mind, it wasn't important and if they didn't want to talk, then he didn't want to know. He knew enough, and knew prying would only hurt them in the end.

He turned his head to look at the front door hearing the screen door swing open, "Hey Leo, you finally had enough of tha' heat?" Leo put his hat back on and smiled up at his oldest brother, "You could say that- Think if I asked Mike would be willin' to make us some lemonade?" Raph's eyes lit up as he weighed the options for a moment, food always got his big brother motivated and Mikey always made the best lemonade..

Leo let out a little laugh at his brothers reaction, "Though if we're gonna have a drink I s'pose we'd need to head into town to get the lemons don't we..?" Raph tensed up a bit hearing the mention of town. Compared to New York this town was more like a small village- It was like something straight out of a western movie it seemed. Raph let out a little grumble, muttering something about town and Leo just laughed again, giving Raph a reassuring pat on the lower half of his shell. "Oh c'mon big guy, it'll take all of forty minutes to get in, out, and back home." Raph carefully passed Leo on the stairs, once again weighing his options. "Raph..?" Leo asked, a little softer, "I know I shouldn't keep askin, but why don't you guys like goin' into town? Seems like y'all lock up whenever it's mentioned but I can't recall the reason."

"Its.." There was a pause, maybe he was trying to think about his words so he didn't sound like he was yelling at Leo. "It's nothin' really, if you wanna go, we'll go. Saddle up an I'll give Don the heads up that we're goin for a ride." Leo practically jumped up to get ready, "Are you sure we wanna tell Don? If he knows you're goin he'll send you off with a whole grocery list to bring back-" Raph shrugged, "If we're goin' we might as well make sure we get all we need, 'sides, Don ain't feelin well again so it might be good to bring him back some more medicine." Leo glanced back at the house, up to the second story where Dee's room was, "He havin' one of his 'no bones' days?" Raph rolled his eyes at the name but nodded, "Yeah, just one of those days. Now go on and get saddled up while I run in and get some money and everyone's orders." Leo gave a playful salute and a 'yes sir!' before heading around to the barn where the horses we're kept. He gave each one a little attention as he passed, Donnie's being an all black horse of course, Mikey's being some kind of calico with all matter of spots and specks decorating its coat, and Raph's was a big ass Belgian draft horse with a dark grey coat that faded to black at the feet. And Leo's, it was this blonde almost iridescent light color. "Well hey there sunshine" He cooed as he opened her gate, stepping and and getting ready to head out, "Looks like we're goin' for a ride today, a real one, not just round the house. You excited?" The horse turned her head nudging Leo and almost knocking him over, he laughed as he gently pushed her back, "I know I know, I told Raphie we need to take y'all out more but he don't want me goin into town alone, don't think he wants me goin anywhere alone actually-" After he was all set he took her lead and walked out of the barn, nearly bumping into Raph on their way out.

Once they were both set they headed out, Leo riding up and around roads, goin as fast as his Sunshine would let him, she liked going fast too, part of why he was able to get her at all. Her last owner couldn't get her to calm down or stop running off or throwing anyone who tried to ride her. Leo pretty quickly figured she just lived a bit faster then others, just like him. So he'd made a bet that if he could ride her without being thrown he'd get a big discount. Instead of trying to get her on his level he got onto hers, encouraging her to run and jump to her hearts content, and they've gotten along pretty damn well since then. Once they got into town went and hopped off his horse, not bothering to tie her up unlike Raph and his gentle giant, who he carefully tied up at a post outside the local grocery store, pulling a few treats from his bag and setting them down. "Good girl Boots" He muttered with a little pat before heading into the store, Leo trailing behind. They browsed for a few minutes, well, Leo did, Raph just picked what they needed and only that. Going right to the sections that had what he needed, he really didn't want to be there longer then they needed to be it seemed.. Leo rolled his eyes and tosses a lemon his way, "Heads up Raphie-!"

The lemon bonked the side of Raph's head and fell into his basket, he turned to Leo with an unamused expression, Leo braced to be yelled at, to be scolded like they would when they were younger, maybe even a playful slap on the back of his head for being impolite at the store. But Raph just took a breath and sighed, picking a couple apples up and setting them in the basket next to the lemon. Leo pouted a little but let it go, it wasn't like he wanted to be yelled at, but it didn't feel right for them to not even fight playfully? He huffed and set another dozen or so into the basket and gave Raph a little shoulder pat, "I'm gonna go wait outside okay? Make sure Sunny ain't found any trouble." Raph just nodded, seemly he was almost done, the basket was already full but he was still looking for a few more things.

Leo stepped outside, a few people had paused to eye his horse, ones that pretty were usually pretty expensive so it made sense people would look at her. He whistled and she perked up, heading over and lowering one front leg to look like she was bowing, he was pretty proud of teaching her that trick.. Het gave her a few pats and praises and grabbed his bag off her side, reaching and getting out a sugar cube, "There we are, I knew I had one left in here. Whos a good girl? Hm?" "She sure is-" Leo turned around to see another yokai approach him, he hadn't seen this guy around but he sure looked familiar..? "Never seen one that well behaved before.. Your horse must've cost a pretty penny but you don't look the fancy type?" Was.. Was this guy saying he looked poor..? "Sunny here ain't no ones horse-" He joked, giving her a few more pats, "Ain't that right Sunshine? You don't belong to no man huh?" She flapped her lips blowing out a huff as she shook her head, turning to nudge Leo. He just laughed a little louder, "Yes mam, you're as free as the breeze ain't cha? You just follow me home for the treats huh?" The stranger smiled a little, he took half a step closer then stopped, "Is it alright if I pet her? Think she'll let me keep my hands?" Leo just shrugged like he wasn't sure but quickly nodded, "I'm just messin- Yeah you can pet her, she loves the attention don't worry." He nodded and stepped closer again, getting into her line of sight and carefully approaching. Leo took a step back and watched in the interaction, whoever this guy was he seemed to know a lot about horses with a temper, and she seemed to like him well enough.. He took his hat off setting is on his saddle to feel the coming breeze. Sunshine turned to look at him before turning back to the stranger and biting the brim of his hat, lifting it off his head and turning to put it on Leo. The yokai was a bit shorter than Leo, and without the hat long white ears fell on either side of his head, it was a rabbit yokai- Kinda cute actually... Not many of those in such hot and dry places like this town. Their eyes met for a moment before Leo realized he was staring at the stranger, "Ah- Sorry 'bout that, she got that lil trick from my little brother-" He took the hat back off and gently set it back on the guys head, "Think that mean's she likes ya heheh- Uh- Say stranger.. You got a name to go with that face?"

"Y-Yeah, sorry, where are my manners.. I'm Yuichi. Yuichi Usagi." Leo stuck his good arm out to shake his hand, "Leo. Leonardo Hamato. Pleased to meet cha."

"Hamato..? Like.. The Hamato brothers?" Leo perked up a little, "Oh? We got a name 'round here or somethin'..?" Yuichi shook his head, "No no, just.. You guys were a big thing back home, everyone in my village knew about you guys savin' people. Didn't expect to find you all the way out here is all." Leo looked a little confused, it'd been a handful of years before he'd done anything heroic.. But people still talked about them? That was kind of cool… Raph came out of the store and started putting his stuff away in the pouches strapped to his saddle. "Well Yuichi, it was a pleasure meeting' you. Not sure how long you plan to be here but if you need anythin' we live just down the road here up on brasshill." He picked his bag back up fastening it and hopping up. Yuichi looked surprised, "Wait- Brasshill? I'm stayin' with my auntie who lives on that road. She's also a rabbit. Leo gasped, "You're related to Nonanoka??? Dude! She's the best! Oh y'all gotta come over sometime then, we'll have a nice get together, tell her Leon's got somethin for her when you see her alright? Shes got our line if you ever need us." Yuichi nodded a little and gave them a little wave as they headed off towards the end of town, fixing the hat on his head and stuffing his ears back into it to get them out of the way.

Once they were back home Raph carried everything inside while Leo took the horses back to their stables, then headed inside once they were back safe. He opened the door being met with Mikey coming down the stairs, he must've heard Raph come in and wanted to see what all they got. "Heya mike" He said giving his hat a little wave before he hung it up, "Leoooo! You're back already??"

"Yeah, Raphie was in a bit of a rush I guess, he never likes to take long you know that" Mikey nodded a little and gave Leo a quick hug, "Well when you get everythin' put away I wanna go for a ride too!" Leo gave Mikey's shell a little pat, "As long as the suns out and Raphie don't mind stayin' with Don. I think he can be bribed though" He gave Mikey a little wink and moved his head to gesture to the kitchen where Raph was emptying the two big bags of food. Mikey peeked past Leo to see the fruit basket on the table now full of lemons and oranges. His eyes lit up as he got an idea, by now Leo was pretty good at getting Mikey to have ideas he thinks are original despite Leo being the one to plant the idea in his head. Mikey slowly walked into the kitchen with his hands behind his back as if he was hiding something, "Heya Raphie, how was the store? Y'all have a good time?" Raph glanced over to him and shrugged, "As good as going into town gets I guess, Leo made a friend I think, the nephew of nona-"

"Nonanoka has relatives in the sates? I thought she said all her family was back in Japan??"

"Must be vistin' or somethin, seemed nice enough tho.." Mikey scooted over climbing onto Raph's back to peer over his shoulder, "Ooooo, we outta bake nona somethin' maybe a pie? We do have a buncha apples now…"

"That's a good idea Mike" Leo said as he sat at the table, he reached for his satchel but then it moved- Everyone's eyes turned to look at the bag, "That- Wasn't just me right?" Leo asked hesitantly, both Raph and Mikey shook their heads as they watched the bag. Leo felt an odd sense, it wasn't dread, he didn't get a bad feeling, but something was making his anxiety go off the charts- He took a deep breath and slowly opened the bag,

"Mew!"

Leos eyes widened as a small kitten, maybe the size of Leos hand, wobbled out of his bag. It was orange with lighter colored stripes. It looked up at Leo and mewed again, tilting its head a little and glancing around to the others. Raphs eyes grew at least ten times seeing that little cat look his way, "Leo- How in the- Where do you even get a cat??"

"I didn't?? I don't- I didn't go anywhere-!" He slowly reached his hand out and pet the cat, it leaned into his hand starting to purr, "I mean I set my bag down to say hi to the new guy- Maybe this lil guy smelled somethin sweet and snuck in..? There are a few strays in that town…"

"Well- Put it back-!"

"Raph!! I'm surprised at you! Look at this sweet lil thing-" Mikey carefully picked the cat up to inspect it after getting off Raph's back, "Hey there lil one, you hitched a ride with the right guy, we'll take good care a' you.." Raph sighed a little, he was too tired for this and knew it was a loosing argument trying to talk them out of keeping the cat. "If we keep her we'll need to go stock up on food, and a bed, and a litter box n litter and a collar- It's a lot of work and on top of runnin' the farm and all out other animals-"

"Her?" Leo asked, Raph nodded, "Yeah can't ya tell she's a girl? She's a month old, maybe a month n a half- What? Why are y'all lookin' at me like that-? I like animals alright? Just- Make sure she don't get outside before we get a collar on her… I'm gonna go bring Dee some food before I start cleanin' up for the night." Leo nodded and looked back at the kitten, "She's so cute- How'd a miss somethin' that sweet sneakin' into my bag hahah.. She's gonna need a name too... Hmm" Mikey set her back on the table, "Let's see... Pumpkin? Cause she's orange? Or... Cinnamon?" "That might be a good name for a horse but she's a much lighter orange.. This lil lady needs a real good name.." "Maybe a snack will help us come up with somethin good! I've been cravin a toasted PB&J, you want one?" Leo chuckled as he was playing with the kitten, "Yeah, make it two if ya would" "Yessir! You want strawberry, marmalade or elderberry jam?" Leo perked up a little, "Wait, say that again.." "Uh.. You want strawberry, marmalade or elderberry jam?" "Marmalade..?" He looked over at the open cabinet, the jar Mikey pulled was filled with a light orange color, he looked back down the to cat, "Marmalade?" She tilted her head a little, it got her attention it seems. "So that's the one you want? ...Leo..? Leeoooo?" He snapped back to reality (ope there goes gravity) and nodded. "Yeah.. I think that's perfect."
