Inspired by a chat with @inkyturtle, my writerbrain has once again had ideas without me.

Moar B-Team headcanon! It’s been a while. Hallo, weird o'clock writerbrain. Donnie’s great with hard sciences, Mikey’s perfect with soft sciences. The family engineer and the family therapist have weekly chat sessions in the lab over coffee, which is Mikey’s ADHD medicine. Mikey admits that he doesn’t really want to be looked up to or have his talents acknowledged as extraordinary beyond his brothers, because that would mean he couldn’t fail. In his mind he would forever need to keep up that perfect twice exceptional mentality and it would just make everything come crashing down. So he deliberately holds back and screws up and allows his ADHD-I to disrupt all hopes of focusing enough, except for the stuff he hyperfocuses on, seeing as that can’t be helped, and he just happened to hyperfocus on chemistry, psychology, making up his own katas, and wearing a lifelong mask of Keep Laughing While The World Burns, because at first he really just wanted to spread joy and love everywhere, but now it feels like hard work and smiling is hard sometimes and oh right that was how the first depressive episode happened. Donnie knows that Mikey’s emotional intelligence and interpersonal intelligence are so far off the charts they’re up in space but he also knows Mikey rarely takes himself seriously and would rather be loved for who he is rather than the things he could be if he only focused. Donnie has them both hooked up to brain monitoring helmets and starts taking notes and he starts trying to figure out how to do some sort of technical mind merge so he can get inside Mikey’s head and maybe transfer knowledge back and forth. Joke’s on him, Mikey’s already had that idea and has been drawing up crude blueprints that include pictures of dragons. Donnie starts to wonder what percentage of his inventions were in fact based on Mikey’s bizarre ideas for fun toys from his powerful imagination that can essentially create and destroy universes.

(I think I brought this up in one of the fics already, but I kind of want to make either a CFR Mind Games chapter or another Mikey The Lifegiver fic for Earth And Oxygen where this gets driven home.)

I'm with @mysillylittlesoapbox here. Don and Mike play off each other so darn well. We really need something completely dedicated to their unique bond. It's been proven that Mikey is empathically sensitive, ADHD-I, detail-oriented, loves learning, is highly creative, and goes with the flow. Donnie loves to teach and show off his knowledge. Plus Mikey can convince Donnie to get out of his head while Donnie can get Mikey to pay attention. Get these two to plot and plan and you could have the cutest things happen.

Ooh, fic idea.

Hear me out though:

A TMNT movie….

that centers around Michelangelo and Donatello rather than Raphael and Leonardo

The very best Samsung Gear VR apps

TORMENT! and Mikey.

When your two AU fic series in the same fandom basically have the exact same premise with small differences, but it really doesn’t matter because the characters are still different versions of themselves. What I’m tryin to say is: the latest story in “The Sunshine Child” and the first chapter of “The Brightest Fire” are coming from the same place, but it’s actually a nifty challenge to recall the differences between 2003 TMNT and 2012 TMNT so I can get the details right. I’ll need to do some research, maybe ask some 2k3 experts about episodes. Now that 2012 canon officially gave the green light to torture the cinnamon roll, I am going to run through the Break The Cutie and Iron Woobie tropes like there’s no tomorrow. Y’all are going to hate me. But someone has to keep the “Hurt Mikey” fics going, because there are so many “Hurt Donnie” fics out there. My two geeky neurodivergent turtle children are beloved so much that they need to be tormented. In relation to each other. Throw Leo into the mix emotionally, make him watch. Raph can comfort everyone, it’s his new job. Haa, ha ha. (PS, all the wikis and descriptons of Michelangelo mention that his 2003 incarnation is something that is never talked about in the show: “ Michelangelo is also appointed to be "the one with the brightest fire" or with the most potential by The Ancient One. Master Splinter also claims a few times that Michelangelo obtains the most "raw talent" of all the brothers. Although, both Master Splinter and The Ancient One, say because of Michelangelo's lack of focus and interest in training, he will probably never meet his full potential.” The 2012 animated comic released before the CGI show had Splinter talking about Mikey having the most raw potential, more natural talent than his brothers combined, lacking the focus and drive. So what if Mikey started really using that potential and talent? He would be terrifying and amazing. It’s a good thing he has such a good heart and a cheerful disposition, because if he was trying to deliberately hurt someone, it would be the most horrifying game of cat and mouse ever. I love fics and headcanons that portray him with that possibility.)

It happened again.

This time, the headcanon and fanfic features Raph struggling with his new Empath powers all by himself while Mikey is in a Depression episode so Don suggests that Raph do Projective Empathy on Mikey and Leo has a doubting so of course Raph sees it as a challenge and then Mikey makes it into a real training challenge because he's empty and full of hollow pain and wants his brothers to have control without needing his help because he is tired. Mikey is their psionic sensei.

I want a psychic sensei.

PS, I have another alter named Oneira, guess what she helps me cope with.

I am still very postictal, ie post-seizure in epilepsy, so I might ramble and babble and stream of consciousness a lotly. Just pet my hair and purr at me. I’m okay. But my writerbrain is bursting with headcanon. (Mikey pulling Leo into the astral plane for a telepathic telekinetic flight). Aahh.

Wonderland in my brain shrinks and enlarges the world. My psychological coping mechanism headpeople named Alicia and Ariana will help take care of my fucked up head.

The Psychic Mikey AU forever, probably

The episode "Lone Rat And Cubs" will probably wreck me for fanfics but I can still do some Mikey angst, I just need to wait for the series finale arc in which either they age fifty years or are teleported to the future, I forget what the sneak peeks said. Disabled depressed epileptic empathic spiritual psychic Mikey will do something awesome, and then I can move onto the other AUs fully. I am still stuffed full of Too Many Headcanons. Spiritual Intuition Bros, Geeky Telepath Bros, and Chaos Empath Bros will always be in my head. Been there for the last twenty-eight years, why stop now.
