Max (at some point) is gunna be showing off around Bradley cuz they're frenemies but Brad gives him butterflies and he likes how Bradley mean-flirts in a way that makes the blood rush to his head and his ears ring.

So Max, being the mastermind that he is, will pull his shirt off to reveal his tattoos, make some overly confident comment.

Brad will roll his eyes. Point out the earrings, brow piercing, scar on Max's lip where he removed the old lip ring - no doubt due to old workplace dress code (and Max will get a thrill from how much attention Bradley has been paying him).

What Max won't expect is the bored way Bradley will begin unbuttoning his suit jacket as he's asking about the material of Max's earrings, loosening his tie as he's commenting on the detail and quality of Max's tattoos. Max drops his skateboard, can't feel his fingers, as Bradley begins to unbutton his shirt. Stops at the seventh button down. Opens it to bare his chest, revealing nipple piercings.

"14 carat black diamond. Lab grown, we don't support all that blood shit." He sniffs as he buttons himself back up. "Surgical grade titanium, of course." Brad catches the shock on Max's face. His haughty, shit eating grin almost snaps Goof out of it as he fixes his tie. "What?" He all but purrs. "Do you think you were the only one to get body modifications here?" Bradley tsks, picking his coat back up. Looking Max up and down slowly before turning to leave. "I didn't just stop at the chest either."

"Hey, Leo?" Donnie looked at his eldest brother over the breakfast table.

"Yeah?" Leo replied then took a bite of his sandwich.

"Not that I have any business in it but I think we both are kind of wandering," Donnie took a glance at Mikey and Raph, who were now listening in like hawks. "And don't get me wrong I love your girlfriend, we all do..."

"Can you just get to the point?" Leo hated when Donnie was beating around the bush like that. He knew exactly where the genius bastard was going. He was mortified of the question but like, just get over it.

"Right, so how exactly did that bathtub brake?"

"Well, Donnie, as you said before it isn't-" Leo started, through his gritted teeth.

"We tried to have sex in it and we slipped," you cut him off.

Leo covered his face. Here it comes.

"I TOLD YOU!" Mikey jumped up banging hands on the table. He started silly dancing around the table. "I was right, I was right, oh yeah. Who's right? It's Mikey!"

Raph was too busy howling in laughter, while Donnie looked like the smuggest motherfucker on Earth.

"This is what I was trying to avoid!" Leo hissed to you.

You shrugged and stuffed your mouth with pancakes. "What were you going to tell them? That the Foot invaded my bathroom?"

The look on his face told you everything.

"Oh, my god!" You swallowed quickly not to choke on your food.

"I was going to stage things up a little!" He tried to defend himself.

"Like how?!"

"I don't know!" He threw his hands up.

Next to you Raph was crying laughing, his head on the table banding his fist on it.

"You ripped my shower fixture and bent my tub! You wanted to add more to the damage cost?!" You gaped at the audacity.

"It seemed like good idea at the time!" Leo hid his face in his hands. Hiding his shame.

"Y'all owe me 20 bucks!!" Mikey shouted from across the lair. His arms in the air. Hero posing.

"You are so lucky your dick snapped last night bc I swear to god-" You started and Leo made a whiny noise.

Donnie made a zoom on Leo's face. This was going into family archive of the most embarrassing breakfasts folder.

Looking for a specific fanfic.

It's a rottmnt Donatello fanfic where he's a streamer using a very "detailed" turtle persona when in reality it's just him. I can't remember anything other then it was written beautifully and was still being written when I lost it a few month ago maybe a year or two ago I'm not sure I've got horrible sense of time.

Edit: Adding to this, it was an x reader fic where he interacted with the reader on his alt account bootyyyshaker9000 while his main streamer account that reader watched was Ryan von orthelo or however its spelt

Edit 2: it's been found! Ty for the help yall <3

Fanfic is called Therefore Love on wattpad written by MadamMuffins

[margoteve]

I'm curious, what inspired you to start writing in the first place? Was it something that you just always enjoyed or was it something you discovered you liked doing at some point in your life? 💜💜

Ty for asking;) this is probably a bit lengthy answer.

Well, I always enjoyed stories. I have dyslexia so when I got older and my mom stopped reading to me it got hard to focus on text and it was much easier to watch cartoons. I eventually got to go to therapy for reading and writing. Mom really had to fight for that to happen lol.

Then Harry Potter arrived to Poland (it was around the time of the 4th part). I got all 4 published parts for Christmas and I basically blasted through all 4 in a week. I am not sure but I may have been in grade 3 or 4 by that time???

I basically discovered that books have some magical stuff in them and I was voracious reader. (Lol neurospicy kids unite).

I still enjoyed cartoons and in particularly Biker Mice from Mars. One day watching an episode and a realisation struck me. I could write a book. I could put my silly ideas I had about characters on page. I didn't know back then what fanfiction was at the time lol. But my Polish language/homeroom teacher was encouraging and I realized I was actually good at it and once I started writing and I never stopped.

And then eventually also slowly switched to writing in English as I realized I could reach more people that way which also helped me learn the language. Then landing in with Megamind fandom really got me going;)

But I don't think I would be here where I am if I didn't get that therapy for dyslexia in the first place.

ALRIGHT BABES LISTEN UP

YES IM TALKING TO YOU READERS OF THE TMNT X READER / ROTTMNT X READER TAG

As you well known, the tmnt / rottmnt tag had a great hit during the pandemic (that’s how I got here in first place) more than 10 posts PER DAY being posted on those tags (it has heaven, I have several saved and fav authors that I could make a list of my all time fav stories and series if someone is interested) and during a dark time between 2021-2022, it hit its Great Depression

We lost some great content creators (hi loves, if so happens to you guys ever see this: it’s ok to move on from a fandom, just want to let you know you are contributed wonderfully to the tag and your work shall never be forgotten; at least not by me mwah mwah) with the rottmnt movie, the tag once again rose!! New content was posted on the tag! And rottmnt finally having more spotlight in it (thank god cuz the series is way underappreciated than it should be) but the tag is slowly declining to dark days again (not as bad as it used to be thank god but anyways)

With that being said!

Do you know when sometimes some authors deliver a link for ao3, and some of us bats an eye (aka me. I used to bat an eye to it. USED TO!!)

Well. Y’all gonna read this author work especifically:

This Angel right here (link and you will be directed to their ao3 page) they went out of their way to write a fic with TWENTY SEVEN chapters dedicated towards Donnie (I don’t even know how many to the other boys, but they are doing a series for each of them and if this isn’t pure dedication idk what it is) with more than TREE CHAPTERS ONLY TO SMUT

So y’all gonna sit your ass on ao3 and read that shit and y’all gonna LIKE IT.

P.s: if you are an author

*:･ﾟ✧ Hi there *:･ﾟ✧

Please feel free to post content however you like, I just wanted to give a special shout-out cuz I swear to GOD this user is doing gods work and no one is celebrating it ( which honestly? It should, here have your special praise baby @madammuffins )

And to baby authors or author who have trouble posting regularly- If you ever gets shy into posting new stuff here: this is a sign for you to do it, the corn bots are eating the tag up, and I swear I won’t be able to survive another content depression

Anyways, that’s it

Hope you guys have a great day, see ya!!!!

Bayverse turtles (seperate) with a mutant reader who hibernates in the winter?

Leo

The first time it happens he is startled.

Like yeah, you mentioned that but he couldn't help but panic a little when you just wouldn't wake up.

It takes Donnie's expert opinion to calm him down.

"Don't scare me like that!" Is like probably first thing you hear when you wake up. Will not let go for a long time.

He reads to you while you sleep.

Has a warm cup of tea ready for you when you wake up.

Next time you plan VERY THOROUGHLY your hibernation and he has a dedicated spot in his room for you.

Both the knight and a dragon guarding you in your sleep. He will exact utmost revenge upon his brothers if any of them tries to wake you up.

Has to chase Donnie out of his room. He doesn't care that his bro wants to observe you for "scientific reasons". NO DISTURBANCES.

Gets Donnie to plan your meals before next Big Sleep so you have all the nutritions you need.

Mikey

Freaks out a bit like Leo when it happens. Mostly bc you probably did tell him about it but his ADHD brain forgot.

Whips you out THE BEST pillow fort for next time.

Hangs out around you all the time BC he misses you so damn much. When will you wake uuup he has so much stuff to tell you and show you!

Draws you when you sleep.

Makes you a feast both before you sleep and when you wake up. All your favourite food

Raph needs to sit his hyperactive ass down or he'd wake you up. Donnie needs to explain it is bad to mess your cycle like that.

After that he is super worried and hides his percussion in case that makes noise.

He still tells you everything at the end of the day.

He hides in the fort with you when he feels super low and needs to remember you are still there for him.

Wrote you a song when you slept.

Cuddles you so much when you are awake.

Raph

You will have the coziest nest to hibernate. He knits you blankets, pillows, socks, sweaters, scarves and anything you want.

He will sit by you and stroke your head waiting for you to wake up.

Doesn't talk much. He isn't a talker

"Took you long enough" he grumbles when you wake up and kinda just sags on you.

He missed your voice and your eyes looking at him.

Better return the favour of skritches. He missed the way you'd scratch his neck and head.

Then order your favourite take out, maybe cook something himself.

Carries you into the main part of lair "LOOK WHO IS UP!"

Will not leave your side after you wake up.

Like Leo he is bodyguarding you.

One time Mikey sneaked past him and you had some stuff drawn on your face.

Raph was pissed and Mikey had to hide from him for at least a week, cause it was on sight.

Raphie proceeded to clean your face as carefully as he could. No one disrespects you. Not even his brothers.

He makes sure you'd build your muscles/body mass quickly after waking up.

Donnie

You write him a statement allowing him to monitor you when you sleep.

He is super excited to know how your type of mutant works.

He preplans EVERYTHING.

It is a bit annoying when your boyfriend doubles also as a doctor bc he monitors everything to have clear data.

CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT

After the first time you kind of revoke his permissions bc while you love him it was very tiring.

He calms down after that.

Like Mikey he has a pillow fort of sorts for you in his lab so he can spend as much time around you while you sleep as he can.

The pillow fort is covered with materials that cannot get set on fire. He made sure of it.

Oh and a forcefield just in case.

There's a big mug of coffee waiting for you when you wake up.

Still threatens everyone in the lair to cut off their WiFi if they dare to wake you up.

Gets Mikey to cook you a good, healthy meal but also throws in some of your favourite things in there as well.

When you sleep you are kind of like rubber duck for him to read his codes to find faults in them.

Early from trip

I present you my first drabble between my OC and Donnie, post the fic I am going to start posting later (probably next week).

I'm gonna tag @madammuffins

Rating: T

“Hey, Donnie, your girlfriend is in your room~” Mikey called from the ceiling as Donnie entered the main area, exiting his lab.

Donnie looked up surprised. He was mid tinkering with a new something - pocket capture cube. Still in Beta. 

Last time they talked Kara was supposed to be in Chicago for some academic conference. She hadn't mentioned coming earlier.

“Thanks!” Donnie placed the cube back in his lab and made his way to his room wondering what was this about that she just didn’t drop by the lab.

At his door he noticed two Post-It notes. One read: Lock the door behind you; the other: Do not turn on the light.

“Okay?” He said to himself, a but suspicious of what she was cooking up again. And maybe a little bit excited. He missed her.

He took the notes down and walked inside his room - which was really dark, did she do something... - and shut the door behind as instructed.

Suddenly, two red lightsabers lit up Kara’s figure. He noted the black, spaghetti strap dress with a thigh split and deep neckline that she was wearing. He licked his lips.

“Oh gosh.”

The red light illuminated her grin. She wiggled her eyebrows, tossed him one light saber and took on a battle stance. He caught the sword and mimicked her stance. It was on.

[eveandtheturtles]

@leosgirl82 @turtle-babe83 @thelaundrybitch @madammuffins @sharpwindow

I am dead seriously convinced Leo would. Mikey is suspect no. 2

around when I first started dating my boyfriend i bought myself this novelty blanket that looks like a photorealistic tortilla because I am SUCH A SUCKER for novelty shit. when he saw it in person for the first time his eyes lit up, which should have been a warning sign for the indignities to come.

so he’s a first responder and his day shifts start obnoxiously early as far as I, a pampered corporate asshole, am concerned. almost invariably when he’s at my place there will be an alarm at an hour that is downright unconscionable that will make him wake up and roll out of bed to get ready and will simultaneously make me burrow under the pillows grumbling about how surely nobody actually NEEDS their lives saved this early in the morning, after which I will promptly attempt to go back to sleep

he is a clever man and he knows this is when i am most vulnerable to attack.

every single time we do this dance, he quietly dresses, packs up, goes about getting ready to leave, and then when i have juuuust fallen back asleep, he returns with the tortilla blanket. He finds it no matter where I have hidden it.

He then creeps silently up to my side of the bed and uses his superior speed, strength, and reflexes to wrap me up in it incredibly tightly while i am still dazed and sputtering, so that i cannot move my legs or arms and am reduced to humiliating halfhearted magikarp flops that do not deter him from at least attempting to kiss my forehead.

then he goes to my bedroom door, opens it, then pauses, turns around, looks at me, the soft human filling of the facsimile of an enormous burrito he has just constructed, and says in his best romantic lead voice “I’ll see you soon, beans.”

you cannot understand how devastating it is to my ego that i am beans.

When you start introducing the yearning and sexual tension part of a slow burn.

I'm having so much fun torturing idiots. I've added a couple chapters, so what was previously chapter 17 is now chapter 19... oops.

Dating Advice

Ship: Leo X Reader

A/N: Leo can't catch a break it seems lol I am going to continue bully him for a lil bit more. With the help of his fam ;)

Tagging: @madammuffins @turtle-babe83 @thelaundrybitch

Anyone else want in let me know!

Recently Leo has been a bit antsy. A bit more... jumpy? But only in the presence of one person.

April noted his behaviour as you left the lair and immediately pulled him aside.

"Okay, spill." She sat him down in the kitchen and gave him her best 'big sis time' look.

"I- don't know what you mean," he said slowly, clearing his throat and looking away. "Now if you excuse me-" he started getting up.

"Sit," she ordered and he sat back down. "Come on Leo," she softened her tone. "I want to help."

He sighed heavily and tapped his finger over the table. "Fine," he sighed, finally giving in. "It's- well,... How do you ask somebody out? Asking for a friend."

April smiled and was about to answer when as if summoned Mikey popped up behind them.

"Who is asking who out?" He asked.

"No one!" Leo tried to stop the train from crashing but too late.

"I think Leo likes your new friend a little more than 'just friends'," April informed him.

"That's nothing new." Suddenly Donnie spoke up from the coffee spot. He had crawled out of his science cave to inject more caffeine in his blood stream. "You aren't that hard to read Leo," he added seeing the shocked face of his brother.

"Can we stop with the bullying?" The blue masked turtled sighed.

"Who are we bullying?" Raph asked as he emerged freshly post work out with a towel around his neck.

"Leo." All three replied.

The terrapin in question sighed again leaning his head down and rubbing a spot on his forehead. He could feel the headache coming.

"Oh, really?" Raph grinned. "What about?"

"He wants to ask Sweetness out," Mikey informed him.

"I never said I want to! It's for a friend!" Leo protested.

"Really? What is his name?" April asked with a wide grin.

Leo opened and closed his mouth. He then made an undignified noise and slid lower in his chair.

"That's what I thought," she said smugly.

"Bro, you could like make a song for her, chicks are into this kinda thing, right?" Mikey looked at April.

She made an 'eh' face. "Depends."

"Or a poem." Raph placed one hand on Leo's shoulder. "I got one for you bro."

"Don't." Leo glared at him.

"Roses are read, violets are blue." Raph ignored him and continued. "Guess what, my bed has place for two."

"Good one!" Mikey snickered. "How about - twinkle, twinkle little star, we can do it in the car."

The two hollered with laughter, even April had to bite her lips not to join them. Leo was suffering.

"Mikey, if you get anywhere near the turtle tank with that intent I will cut you off the WiFi for life and set your hover board on fire," Donnie spoke up.

"Yes, sir!" Mikey immediately sobered up. Donnie threats were no laughing matter.

"Thank you!" Leo called out, hoping the torment was over. He was wrong.

"That being said -," Donnie took a sip of his coffee and cleared his throat.

"Oh, no." Leo sunk further down.

"Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream," purple terrapin sang. "Merrily, merrily, I can make you scream."

"Oh, my god," Leo groaned. "You are my family, but you are all terrible, you dicks."

"Eh, you love us," April patted his hand.

"Hey guys," you re-entered the lair. "I forgot my bag." You took the scene in and frowned. "Is something wrong?"

Suddenly all the eyes were on Leo and he just wanted to disappear.

"Nope," he jumped out of the chair. "Everything is peachy! Let me walk you home." He rushed to your side and threw a death glare at his snickering family.

You were very confused as Leo escorted you out.

"What was that all about?" You asked. "It looked like you guys were having an intervention," you joked.

"It was nothing, they just thought they were being funny," he huffed.

"Were they giving you shit because you haven't asked me out yet?" You smirked, giving him a side eye.

Leo felt like a scratch record. "What?" He blinked at you, stopping abruptly.

"You aren't that hard to read Leo." You took his hand. "Also I was listening to the whole thing for quite a while. The sewers do carry sounds well."

His heart was about to jump out of his chest. "And um, do you, would you mind if I did?"

"Nope, so come on, shoot your shot." You nudged him gently.

"Alright," he took a deep breath in. Here it goes. He will not mess it up. "Do you take out game?"

Fuck.

"I mean - Will you check me out? No!" He pinched the bridge oh his snout.

You tried so hard not to laugh.

"I can do this," he said probably more to himself than you. "Will you. Go with me. To the Knicks game this Saturday?"

You giggled and stood up on your tip toes giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Yes, with pleasure."

"Great!!" He smiled brightly. "I can pick you up at 6?"

"Sounds perfect. See you then." You gave his hand a squeeze and exited the sewers. A smile never leaving your face.

Once you were gone he fist pumped, excited. You said yes! That was such a relief! He felt so good he was going to clean the dojo!

Figuring out how to prevent his brothers from going to the game was future Leo problem.

River Dance

This is a bit of a longer drabble. You get to see another detail of Kara's character! Also this is stupid idea I had couple days ago that didn't leave my brain and made me laugh so thar.

Kara is Deaf and uses ASL, hence <dialogue>

Rating: T

Enjoy! (also if anyone wants to be on a tag list lemme know lol)

It was just this tired conversation at 5am. She was staying up for a big deadline on one of her projects, and he had a new idea that needed working out. They both were too tired to think anymore and just laid on his bed in the brothers’ lair - Kara between Donnie’s long legs facing him. She was spacing out for a second there and he finally noticed.

He looked at her and gently waved his hand to get her attention. <What are you thinking about?> He asked. 

She hesitated at first, her eyes were a bit unfocused from lack of sleep. <It’s stupid.> She signed slowly. 

<Go for it.>

<I was wondering if you’d be good at that Irish dance, cause your legs are so stupidly long,> she finally admitted.

He snorted. <What?>

<Well!> Her hands flailed a little. <I was watching Youtube earlier today and these guys were there and they have long legs and do the dance and you have ridiculously,> she stressed the word, gesturing over his limbs, <long legs!> She was trying very hard not to grin but she was losing, getting close to laughing. <How dare you have legs this long and sexy!>

She slapped his shin and he laughed.

<That is weird,> he snickered. 

She huffed a little but she shook her head, still smiling. He pulled her close and she nested over his stomach so easily. His tiny missing peace. He kissed the top of her head and she nuzzled his chest. Not two seconds later both were passed out snoring.

The topic of Irish dance never came up again really. Mostly because Kara simply didn’t remember the sleep deprived conversation her mind took them to.

Until one day. 

Kara came back to her apartment. The lights were on and dimmed and she saw a few candles here and there. Confused, she went over the calendar in her head. Did she… did she forget an anniversary or something? She went further in and saw a bouquet of flowers on the kitchen’s countertop and Donnie leaning over said countertop with a rose in his mouth.

She blinked at him, completely stumped and made a strained noise at the back of her throat as she noticed a mustache drawn in sharpie on his face. What the hell was going on? 

He took out the rose from his mouth and with a flair swooshed it towards her trailing a petal over her chin. Smitten, yet wary, she took it taking in the sweet scent.

She noticed he was wearing a pair of brand new trousers with also brand new suspenders and…a strange pair of shoes.

Looking back up at him she noticed a hand stretched to her. Confused, yet amused and curious where this was going she took it. 

Donnie led her to the sofa. The piece of furniture was pushed back and she saw a board on the floor that wasn’t there before… okay? 

She sat down. 

Donnie took his position on the board and clicked a remote for the music to start. 

Honestly, she was half expecting her turtle boyfriend to start stripping and not… not start wild River Dancing. She bent in half laughing then clapped and applauded the show. 

When it ended she jumped up and reached her hands up. Donnie, a bit out of breath, bent down and received a flurry of kisses all over his face.

<Don you are the silliest boyfriend,>she signed and nuzzled his neck. <What brought this on?>

<Well, you did mention it once in regards to my, and I quote, ‘stupidly long legs’ and I was kind of bored one day so…> He grinned.

She giggled and kissed him again. <Weirdo.>

<Did you like it?>

<My face hurts from laughing, yes, absolutely.> She looked at him with mirth in her eyes. <Now come on, I need to make out with you right now. God, you’re so silly.>

<Yes!>

She giggled more and pulled him with her to her bedroom. They had some horizontal dancing to do.

☆ Chapter 22 Snippet ☆

Exhaled hard as Bobby lowered his sunglasses. “Shut the fuck up.” He pointed, standing with effort.

“Jesus Max!” Head cranked hard to see Roxanne, arms around George, clinging to her, looking pale. “Could you have picked maybe a different day to scare us half to death?”

Chattering of agreement rose up as the crowd dispersed.

“Imagine if your dad had seen that.” PJ agreed, patting Vicki's shoulder as she turned abruptly, head shaking angrily.

“I'm just getting old, guys.” Max hopped down, hissed in a breath, sitting on the edge of the ramp and rolling his ankle. “I guess that means you've won the bet Brad.” Max grinned as he pulled off an elbow pad.

“Yeah.” Bradley tsked, “though what self-respecting businessman would have a mullet?” Eyes rolled as he took a long hard pull from his can.

"You guys know that Donnie gonna win this right?" You sipped your drink watching Mikey holding a game of Twister over his head.

It was game night with April, Casey and you joining the brothers for some shennanigans. You weren't exactly sure how Twister got selected though.

"I do have a superior physique for this, yes," Donnie agreed pushing his glasses up with his knuckle.

"Not if I steal his glasses , he won't," Mikey retorted sticking his tongue out at his tallest brother.

"You should play with us," April suggested.

"Nah, thanks, I'm good." You shake your head. The thought of getting in there with everyone made you deeply uncomfortable. "Plus Leo and Raph aren't playing either."

"That's because Leo's got stick up his butt and Raph ain't as nimble as I am," Mikey leaned in next to you, wiggling his brow ridges.

You snorted and pushed his face away. "I don't think you need a doughball like me in there then," you joked.

A loud sound of glass breaking got everyone's attention.

"Sorry, slippery hands," Raph replied, badly hiding the death glare he briefly send Mikey's way.

"Are you alright?" You asked, immediately getting off of your bar stool and joining him to help clean up.

"It's fine," he grumbled getting broom and a dustpan.

"Let me help," you offered. At the same time you reached your hand and took the duspan out of his hand, brushing your palm over his fingers.

Raph froze a little. "You don't have to, I've got it."

"I know, but it will be faster with help!" You replied cheerfully.

"You should join the others," he told you as he started sweeping the glass shards. Gosh that thing really broke almost to dust.

"Nah, I think they have full house without me there," you brushed that off with a smile. Looking over your arm you saw Mikey dragging Leo to be the one to spin the colour wheel.

Truth was everyone there was just so... fit and attractive, especially April. Meanwhile you... you were just not. With your body rolls, stretchmarks and body hair growing where , according to magazines, it shouldn't. Yeah, it's best to stay out of it.

The red clad turtle humphed something under his breath as he finished sweeping. You threw out the glass. He stomped away irritated for some reason, leaving you a little confused.

You looked at the party going on. Casey was the first to fail. You followed after Raph.

You found him in the gym, angrily starting to pick up the dumbbells.

"Hey, uh..." You hovered by the entrance. "Did I make you angry somehow?"

He paused.

"You've been a bit weird the past couple days and..." You almost jumped out of your skin when he tossed the weights away.

He huffed, inhaling through his nose loudly, then exhale. His jaw was moving as he was clearly working something out. He started to pace.

"Raph?"

"You're being stupid!" He suddenly fired.

"What?"

"You're being stupid," he repeated, "and it's pissing me off! Cause I know what you're doing!"

"What am I doing?" You were getting annoyed and ready to fight him.

"You're thinking!"

"Excuse me?!" Your voice raised.

"No, shit, what I mean is- you- you keep thinking those thoughts! That you're ugly or something," he tried to explain. "That's bullshit you know? You're- you're gorgeous and strong! And- and pretty and you smile so wide and you give best hugs and you don't make me feel like a freak..." He paused staring right at you. "And I want to beat up every single person who made you hate yourself."

Tears swelled in your eyes, so your tried blinking quickly. That took you so completely off guard.

"You are funny and-," he suddenly was in front of you. "I think I might like you." He said that last part quietly. He raised his hand up to your cheek but then quickly dropped it and cleared his throat. "Anyway-"

You cut him off, hugging him tightly. "Thank you."

His arms closed around you tightly. "Yeah, don't mention it."

"Hey, Raphie?" You said after a moment.
