#hhhhh. sexy villain bay leo is. going to live rent free in my head for a while

[desceros]

Hey. Hey. You ever uh….. you ever think about Bayverse Foot Leo?

i haven't before but i sure as fuck am now kicks down door.

i imagine they'd probably use him as a farm for the mutagen for a few years, until shredder realized. huh. wait a second. this shit's doing something to this turtle and making it humanoid. strong. curious. so he'd maybe take little baby leo and see what he can tolerate. push him to his limits day in and day out. torture him a little. then realizing his strength, shredder would be like. oh. i can Use This.

so then he'd train leo up. still drawing the mutagen out of him, but not so much that it leaves him on death's door. enough to farm. enough to study. enough so that leo can train.

for convenience sake let's say around the time of the first movie is when they'd get enough mutagen from him to do their big experiment with sacks tower. and of course this is when the other turtles would intervene to stop it... and leo's like. holy shit. there are others? and they'd be like. holy shit you're alive?? angst angst angst

...so i guess it would be kind of like city fall in idw! except without the angst of the family stuff at first there since shredder wouldn't have known that the other turtles and splinter were alive.

shredder i imagine would use leo as much as he could in order to get the mutagen plan to work. and when he's arrested i suspect leo would work with karai to try and get him out. all the while having to fight against this stupid rat who insists on calling him "son" and these stupid turtles calling him their "big brother."

ooooh. you know the raph fights would be so good.

thinking comically now of them doing a heist where they manage to yoink leo and bring him into the lair. donnie having him in some kind of giant net or something. giving him pizza and trying to tell him that they're not his enemy, that shredder and karai are using him, that there's another way to live life that's peaceful and loving.
