#raph tied up: you know we cant let you do this

[threestripeslider]

„Big Mama is too evil to be a mother figure“ this, „Big Mama gets redeemed to be a mother figure“ that, here‘s my concept; Big Mama is a mother figure AND the antagonist, that would be way funnier

her having tea with one of the boys as they‘re upsidedown and tied up by her webs, feeding them biscuits and telling them that murder solves everything as they sigh and repeat that no, Mama, no killing or maiming you know its against our rules

12+ 1days of Flash fics! The Eve Before Christmas

Summary: One last story before Ficmas is done. All these stories had a special place in me heart, a few months ago someone stole all my fantasy writing and posted them to another website. And even though they were taken down it still left me in a emotional bad place. So i went through my friends on discord and asked if i could write stories for them to help combat the negativity i was feeling. (13 fics in one day, not bad right?) And the fact it made them so happy was well worth it. So here’s my last  one for a especially special friend who only deserves kind things 

for: @leleyume

Characters: Leo, Donnie, Mikey, and Raph

pairings: [sighs, sits down] ok buddy, because it’s Christmas i’m not going to throw a overly aggressive humorous pairing threat your way. But honestly? By now you should know this isn’t a blog for you. I’m not a shipper, so please leave my blog in peace. Or Else

“you awake?”

A part of Donnie thought about just not answering. But his innate desire to always have a smart ass comment ready forces him to answer, “Yes.” Before flopping over onto his side. Trying to find some semblance of comfort on the hard living room floor. He can hear Leo let out a whine behind him before a foreign foot nudges his hip from over his blanket, “Donnnieeeee I cant sleeeeeeep.”

“of course you can’t sleep. That’s what happens when you drink five glasses of hot chocolate,” with a more then nauseating amount of onion powder that made Mikey burst into tears. Leo lets out another whimper that draws a even louder sigh from Donnie as he rolls over. Because of the lights from the Christmas tree he had no difficulty seeing Leo’s pout, “What do you want me to do about it?”

“I don’t knowwww.” Again his foot came up to nudge him. Don glances over his shoulder to make sure that Mieky and Raph were still asleep (Raph was snoring so loud that it was causing the room the shudder every few seconds. Even though it was Leo’s own fault he couldn’t sleep, he still takes pity on him , “What did you get everyone for Christmas?” Donnie asks

Leo smiles brightly, “I got Mikey a new wok signed by Rupert Swaggert (don’t ask me how I got him to sign it) I got Raph a  new set of footie pajamas and Dad a new smart phone.”

“Um, you know last time we tried to give him something more high tech then a stapler he somehow ate it?”

“Yeah I know.” Leo says with a giggle,’ I wanna see how casey he breaks this one.”

As the tech savvy turtle he should have been offended at the disregard for technology. But he just snorts loudly, using his blanket to try and cover up his noise. A Christmas tradition they had had as long as time was everyone sleeping by the tree on Christmas eve to try and catch Santa which had seemed fool proof at the time (not that they knew that their ‘Santa’ was a ultimate ninja and impossible to catch). And though they had out grown Santa a long time ago (and by long ago he meant last year) it was still a tradition they intended to keep. Donnie didn’t want to admit how much more relaxed he felt with his brothers sleeping at his side.  Donnie rewraps his blanket around himself before settling down out his onto his pillow, “Don’t ask me what I got you, it’s a surprise.”

“Whaaaat noooo wouldn’t dream of it.” Though the look on Leos’ face told Donnie not only that he knew what Donnie had gotten him but he was also going to enjoy exchanging it for something he wanted. Donnie made sure of reach up and give him a kick in the stomach to convey how he thought about that as Leo twists away  “Ow ow! Brother abuse!”

“That’s not brother abuse,” Donnie sat up and held his pillow high over his head, “TTHIS IS BROTHER ABUSE!!!” he said bringing the pillow down hard on Leo as the turtle shrieked. Crossing his arms over his head to defend himself from the barrage before he twists around and snatches Mikey ,who had been sleeping on Leos’ other-side, and rolls over. The youngest awoke with a start and a equally loud shriek as he suddenly became a turtle shield,” Help!!!” Mikey shrank into his shell. Donnie grabbed Mikey’s shell by the lip and with one foot on Loe’s face tries to pry Leo’s shield away from him,’ “Face me like a warrior!!!”

“I cant i’m too much of a coward!” Leo begs letting out a loud mock sob as he tries to protect himself. They are so distracted with their tug of war that when a soft chuckling fills the air ti takes the two brothers a moment to notice the dark shadow over them. They slowly turned to see Raph standing over them, a wild grin on his face and a massive pillow in each hand, “Merry Christmas ya filthy animals” he says with a wicked grin

And that’s the story of how a midnight pillow fight lead to the living room catching on fire (though the presents had been safe ( and the four of them being grounded till next Christmas

favorite things from Turtles Forever

it’s literally been 48 hours and ive watched this movie like 11 times i keep going back to it

that title sequence? delicious.

cinematic parallels of mikey liking the goofballs & raph liking the grit only for both of them to realize they may have Made A Mistake because the other turtles are a little too extreme on each end of the spectrum

“im not your step brother... im your half sister”

speaking in unison and name confusion

“dont get cute” “we cant help it! we were born that way” im so glad they know theyre adorable

the 80s turtles are literally babies and they share a singular brain cell (they literally talk in unison so often its a mood)

“right after lunch” [jumps off building for pizza]

being polite to the humans “hey there” “hows it going” “hello” “hi”

80s mike catching the pizza. no pizza harmed in the making of this tmnt movie

running from the police

reinforcements = dad

“techno magic” HE LITERALLY TIED THE WIRED INTO A KNOT

the noogie saga AKA “awww look mikey they like you! you’re doomed.”

“cowabunga!” “COWABUNGA!”

the 80s turtles making 03 mikey laugh in the middle of the fight

“what a hardcase”

[krang noise] “quiet”

the 80s turtles being confused that the 03 call splinter “father”

“wow your sewers really stink” “uhm you dont have any nostrils?” “touche”

ah yes. the most effective way to wash something off your hands. by flailing around in 2 inch deep water screaming

03 mikey wrapping up splinter’s hand

“any ideas?” “OH ME PICK ME I KNOW”

“it sounds... silly. no offense”

the power of positive thinking

“now hand me that hammer” “this is a wrench” “details. science isnt all about facts you know”

at least he used it like a hammer i’ll give him that

the 80s boys sleep til noon everyday???? they say “is it noon already” so i assume thats the case???????? mood????

the pause and look of confusion after 80s raph breaks the fourth wall

80s mikey is completely unafraid of a villain who has them all chained to a wall but 03 raph’s anger is enough to scare him (+80s raph holding back 03 raph)

the 80s boys realizing this is actually serious

“my turtles. and.... my turtles?” 

80s mikey waving at splinter in the background. baby do you have any idea what’s going on?

“thats kinda what our master splinter said to us. about them.” “i know... im worried about him too”

donatello how are roller skates anti technodrome gear i just want to know please i need an explanation

the 80s turtles are just using what they know you guys, its not their fault the solutions in their world are goofy and dumb

“the technical term is stupid party wagon”

air support

krang has transdimensional attorneys

the 80s boys are willing to risk their lives for this universe i love them so much im gunna cry

“move it halfshell!”

im always here for a karai betrayal

when donnie says “meet our dimensional duplicates”, 03 mikey puts his arm around 80s mikey in the background

the contrast between how the 80s and 03 turtles fight but also them fighting in sync with each other

i’ll hit a donatello with another donatello

rule of threes comedy with the 4th wall breaks!

raph yelling for casey and needing to be pulled away by leo literally made me tear up

mirage leo’s narration

mirage raph is so dang extra with his sai. all the spinning and then immediately throwing them at the 80s boys

despite being told the others are trying to save them from the shredder, the mirage turtles’ instinctive stance is a defensive one as opposed to a more relaxed position

the fact that mirage raph doesnt speak as much as the other three and instead mostly growls (and when he does speaks its always to taunt the others)

“what a hardcase” x2

“we've created a sophisticated device that will be able to track the Technodrome, no matter where” “is that it?”

the other turtles throwing trash at mirage shredder + mirage leo motioning for them all to get down

“less talk. more action.”

03 raph saving 80s mike, raph, and leo and the, clinging to him crying

“yeah okay, it’s okay, you can let go now. ....dont make me hurt you.”

where are the classics? oh there they are, literally throwing themselves in shredder’s face

“looks like we just found something he’s vulnerable to!” “yeah... turtles!”

mirage turtles being the multiverse big brothers/leo’s mother-henning coming out: “leonardo, seriously, for your own good, you bros should lay off the dimension hopping business. it’s dangerous.”

such a cute goodbye between the turtles! saying each other’s Call To Action and 80′s raph waving with two hands looking more like he’s making a snow angel

the ending just really hits me right in my soul for whatever reason. like... the beginning of so much good.... its like watching the big bang i cant explain it

ROTTMNT: Human AU, some design HCs and random HC

@bootyyshaker9000 This is so long i'm so sorry i just gonna make a post about it i don't wanna flow your dms or anything, so I wrote this down in paper and in spanish so forgive me if my english is shitty and it took so damn long, btw HI!!!~ How you doing honey?

My Heart Ache a Lot (cuzhessopreciousicantbrah)

~ My son Mikey I can't let anybody hurt you. (Btw, Leon call him Miguelito). He struggles a little with puberty, mostly with ocasional acne. His brothers constantly remind him of being careful to not get scars from pinching the pimples obsessively.

~ MIXED BRAH U CANT' TELL ME OTHER WISE, 1/2 cups of african-american and 1/2 cups of latino spice and PUFF yOU GOT CINNAMON ROLL THAT COULD ACTUALLY KILL YOU.

~ Cocoa skin (with that yellow undertone, you know?). Thin hair, curly, natural and the most bouncy-est(?) hair, a little above the chin lenght, tied up in a bun when he's busy making art.

~ Button nose, surrounded by some freckles. With really big, almond eyes. His face gets pinkish when it's to damn hot, he's doing to much work or is REALLY angry.

~ I think I gotta bring up how nice his smile is, he got that smile, that shows up just his upper teeth row, the upper lip disappears and it goes way up his cheeks and then it sinks in his dimples. Art.

~ Mikey ain't that young but his height, complexion and even facial features makes him look a lot younger in comparison to his brothers, he could be like 25 and ppl would still think he's in highschool, never aging ppl.

~Had this beautiful dreads, with the tips colored differently once in a while. Now he's growing his hair to have larger dreads, so he can paint em a different color each and have em in high up-do, like a rubberband ball.

~ Mikey would wear every fucking color, get the fuck away with toxic masculinity p l e a s e. Fits anything 10/10. But loves sports clothing (Matching ones are the BEST) he find's it refreshing and really comfy since Miguel is really active, so if he's needs to go usain bolt he GOES OFF and you can imagine sneakers don't last with him. Probably, every single piece of clothing he owns has at least a minor stain from some sort of paint.

~Wears headbands, sometimes really neat designs and then straight out "what the hell is this vomit stain garbage Mikey?" (from Donnie, mostly).

~ Has fake piercings. He's got several in his ears. He wants to have em for real, older brothers just keep telling him that "when he gets older".

Plus: We all know how the turtles are sneaky sneaky, tricky tricky and rad skillyz skillyz being ninjas but in this human AU his brothers got nothing on him like he's flexible as hell, he comes down the stairs like the exorcist bitch or that other bitch on the ring and scares the shit out of Leon and Raph, can touch his calfs with his neck that kind of stuff. And he doesn't run, he travels back to 1955 to save Marty McFly ass.

Leonardo DABinci

~ Not so long ago I made a post about how Leon is a Latino, quote:

"I can clearly see how Leon is totally a Latino. Like: thick wavy hair, with really small monolid eyes, and medium light skin (latinos know what the hell i'm talking about, those kids that get told they have "ojos de chinito" and rock the neapolitan tanning: caramel where the sunlight hits, milky way where it doesn't and pink when it's too much sun for the day) and then Donnie is this asian™ bean, so, sometimes they are mistaken as blood related brothers (Mostly cuz the eyez) and the stripes are the tanning y'all."

~ In addition, recently someone WOKE™ me up and reveled to me as in a prophecy, that Leon is Half-Chilenian, Half-Argentinian.

~ TBH yall, i just want my boy to do his thing and do them Fornite dances while some dope ass cumbias are playing, this is straight up my dream for real.

~Leon got those damn thick eyebrows more than Raph, plucks em to give em shape.

~Has a lot of scars. Leon is very active as Miguel but he is a troublemaker. Got several scars from fights: face, knees, knuckles, arms, legs. And that one time he came running to get his juice, slipped and smashed into the stove glass.

~Has wavy thick hair, keeps the top messy and fluffy and the rest shorter, undercut typo.

~LEON. USES. GLASSES. Period. But don't use em regulary, mainly cuz he's so active and sometimes clumsy and would rather not buy glasses everytime he goes out.

(Donnie, probably): "Leon, why don't you use your glasses? You are making your eyes even smaller trying to read that sign"

(Dumbo): "No, no! que dices weon? I only need the glasses when i'm reading!"

~Loves stripes in his clothing. In any shape and thickness.

~Low-key uses Donnie button up shirts because he does think Donnie looks so well in em, but he's a little more broad than him (Thicc bacc, bicc arms) so he had tear some up, or pop a button or too.

~Guy who would wear anything and don't give a shit if he doesn't have a defined style. One day he's with that graphic tee, flashy bermudas and some sandals and the other day using some jeans, saggy big sweater, a beret and some fine boots.

~ Loves boots more than sneakers. Got good traction with em. But no one can replace las CHANCLAS i'm telling you, he's so comfortable flipping & flopping.

~ He's hairy. Really hairy. Don't shave, except the faice. He's got that baby face and the trace of where the beard could be. It ain't that thick sandpaper beard aftershave tho, Raph taught him the tricks to the silk road.

~Them sideburns tho, neAT-O.

~He ain't got former training, just some random stuff he's learned from Donnie and Raph. Nontheless, he's the trickster and can go dirty on fighting just to save his ass. But sometimes, his big mouth saves his dumb ass from trouble. (2/100 times, the other 98 times it makes it worse)

~Plus: He's into parkour a lot. Takes Mikey out so he can tag some walls uphigh. These trips are the reason he gets in fights more than his other brothers, he's gotta stick out for his brother in case shit goes down, but mostly because he's a loudmouth and sometimes he deserves it cuz he starts the fire tbh.

The thing goes RAP - PHA - PHA

~ Raph, my soft boy. He still BIG™, ain't ripped like a physiculturist, gotta admit, abs are in fact chocolate abs but got a chunky yet funky tone to it. Big ass arms, to strong to carry my depression and smash all my worries.

~ Obviously African-American, I just imagine this warm undertone to his skin. Thick eyebrows (plucks out his unibrow, and nothing more, that natural angled eyebrow perfect as it is).

~ Hairy complexion (but not as hairy as Leo) to pull out a balbo beard, faded to his hair, then starts the faded high top, (not that high tho) with that cotton natural hair (raph is just my dream tbh).

~ My boy rocks denim everything. But got this particular worn off denim jacket he treats like one of his extremities. It's kinda saggy, old, several splashes of god knows what substances... But he wears it like the most precious thing, his brothers got him for his birthday, selling candy bars and other sweet goodies. Made him cry like a bitch.

~ Snaggletooth fang. I got this random HC that Raph got it in a fight with one of his brothers when he was younger. His first tooth after his decidious teeth, he was so happy, finally "maturing" in his words. In his younger years he struggled a LOT with angry issues, (mainly, as the oldest, he understood a little big more about the rejection above the city for mutants, and built up this feeling of despite).

One day, one of his brothers made him really fucking angry, they got in a physical fight, that ended with his crooked fang, but yet, Raph is BIG and he can't measure his strenght sometimes. Then, his brother is crying in pain, screaming how bad can he treat his brother, as if he didn't love them, just as the people above.

He wasn't angry cuz the teeth (cuz he showed it off, like it made him an adult already), he broke down because he was always feeling so damn angry, being the oldest and yet he was beating their younger siblings over some dumb shit and treated them like people in the surface would. Raph is challenged each day, when he sees his face in the mirror, with the tooth projecting outwards as reminder of all the rage he had to let go to protect their brothers, to make a change on his perspective and emotions, to keep their family and himself happy.

I think this mind set change was the thing that settled Raph as a leader. He got stronger, not physicially, but mentally and emocionally, for the sake of his family.

This HC can be translated somehow to the Human AU but i'm not sure the origin of Raph's rage yet.

~ Would wear any shirt that has anything he likes, PLUS if it is in red. He just loves red. He's the only one obvious with their color preference. Red caps, shirts, jackets, pants and tons of sneakers.

~ Likes jeans but loves that kind of bermuda cut shorts and not all the way down pants. He's got some C A L F S with capitals.

~ Luckily, he does wear matching socks. (We can't see Don's most of the time but Raph shows more leg so).

~Wrist wrist wrist wrist wrist wrist. Loves wrist accesories and probably would wrap around anything on his wrist.

~He's got that classic™ Rock Lee from Naruto bandages from training and work out and sometimes he's just to tired to take off the shin pads.

~Don't show em much but got some big ass brass knuckles in his pockets in case someone messes the fuck up with his brothers. (He would easily let go if it was just him, he's a master of templance, but be warned: not with his family)

Plus: Got one tatto, in his back, below the neck, this celtic rune (we know that celtic runes have several meanings, so he took one with various that would fit him) a Gebo, that can mean partnership, generosity and sacrifice.

DONNA TELL EM

~ For starts, Donnie is my asian bean. Creamy pale skin, monolid eyes, with that puffy under eyelid, of course noticeable dark circles, but he got that EYESMILE BOI. (You know that people who kept straight face but the eyes are just screaming happiness??? That kind of eyesmile)

~ Hair black, thin, straight cut (his hair is kinda wavy) at his shoulder's lenght, got that fade styling in the back tho, usually wrapped in a high ponytail/bun. (Mikey loves to mess with his hair).

~ He's got that thin eyebrow hair, so, he fills em up to make them thicker, so gives him more of an assertive feature. (Also he is jealous of Leo and Raph eyebrows, nontheless edge so sharp to cut a bitch) Got that hairless complexion so not much about facial hair.

~ Obviously keeps them THIGHS™. (So far, to me their complexion on the show is the same as in the human AU so... ) Jeans were invented to the sole purpose to fit Donnie so well.

~To wear, jeans are a go to, but damn sweatpants comfy AF. Big old sweatshirts, swearters and hoodies. Underneat, digs button shirts, short or long, never with flashy prints, yet some minor deco, (to him is all in the elegance....). Raph and Donnie share an interest on sneakers, so he can wear like 1 hoodie for 10 days straight but a different sneaker each.

~But wears missmatched socks like the fuck out of here BOI, looking neat and clean and you come out with this yeeyee ass bullshit.

~ Donnie hides the fact that he's riPPED under the hoodies and sweatpants often, (he's tall as shit and his brothers calling him spagethi bOI don't help much) so people make the assumption he's the weakest of his brothers. He's the only graduated on black belt on Karate and knows his shit on MMA. On his younger years he was indeed saved many times by Raph's strenght, Mikey's swiftyness and Leon's cunning. This "being the weak" complex got to his head and started training solo. His brothers are amazed of Donnie's self-improvement and he often disguises it as the "i did it so i wouldnt be the weakest, you better watch out when i supass yall" but they all know he suffered inmensely seeing his brothers hurt because of him, so if they go down he does too, to protect them.

Plus: Complementary headphones with neon designs, blasting nightcore, dubstep and DnB songs with every Donnie purchased.

BG:

In my AU, these kids grew up really poor. They learned the value of hardwork since they were really young. Like in the Teetle Universe, people see them as misfits. Especially, because they are a "patched up family" (they are not blood related) and being looked down by the economic factor, mostly.

They got some real internal issues. But, the only thing that keeps them sane is how tight their brotherhood is.

Donnie and Raph have a job and go to college. Struggle a lot with their younger siblings rebellious stage.

Leon and Mikey go to highschool and do some baked goodies or art comissions to have some sort of income. Ain't fond of school that much, real troublemakers.

April it's a freshman in college and has much more accomodated life, but somehow, she's always felt she doesn't belong to anywhere, until she meet our boys. April learns a lot of life hardships while hanging out with em.

This would be, basically the series:

April meets this guys, this is sort of a slice of life anime, with lots of comedy and fun shots, however it develops around April learning valuable lessons that will help her as an adult, about friendship, loyalty, respect, empathy and kindness, after all the things the boys are going through.

I'm not sure how am I gonna accomodate Splinter in this, but eventually I'll figure it out.

I'm not got at drawing but i'm gonna try to make some of their designs.

[kc-anathema]

ask: Raph/Leo\Mikey, double penetration?

penetrative, sequel to natural sub

His bedroom door lay open a few inches, so Raphael heard the faint scuff of footsteps coming toward him. Looking over his magazine, he sat straighter as Donatello came in, pulling Leonardo along by a leash attached to a collar.

"Special delivery," Donatello said.

"I thought Mikey said I didn't get him for another couple nights." Raphael sat upright in his hammock, putting his feet on the floor. "Not that I'm complaining."

"Mikey's got extra training with Splinter," Donatello said. "Probably be another hour or two. Since I was done with him, Mikey said you could keep him busy."

"Huh." That raised several questions, but rather than ask, he lifted his hand, catching the end of the tossed leash. "Any rules I should know about?"

"No breaking the skin," Donatello said, counting them off on his fingers. "No deep bruising. No marks, basically. No arguing. And no gagging him just so you can rant."

Raphael fought down his smirk. "Won't say I wasn't tempted. Anything else?"

"Technically he has a safeword," Donatello said. "But Mikey said they've done some really extreme, freaky stuff and Leo never uses it, so...don't expect to hear him say 'no'."

Raphael coughed. "'No'? Not getting the concept of a safe word, bro'."

"I'll be in the lab if you need me." Donatello kissed Leonardo's cheek. "I'll have the new machine waiting for you on Tuesday. And don't forget, as soon as you wake up tomorrow, coffee on my desk, just the way I like it."

"Yes, Donatello." Leonardo watched him go from over his shoulder. Once the door was shut, he lowered his head, looking at the floor.

Raphael didn't miss the slight tremor of his hands.

Buying some time, he examined the leash. Bright orange canvas, probably so everyone remembered who Leonardo really belonged to. It was several feet with a carabiner on one end. He was a little surprised it didn't simply have a lock, then figured the only person who got to use locks was Michelangelo. Sure enough, the end attached to the collar was held without a padlock.

Curious, Raphael wound the leash around his fist a few times, pulling it taut.

"Undo the leash," he said.

Leonardo hesitated. "I can't."

"It ain't locked," Raphael said. "What, just 'cause Mikey said not to?"

"It's not that," Leonardo said. "Although Master did say not to."

"That little brat the only one you call master?"

"He likes it," Leonardo said, a faint smile betraying fond exasperation. "Donatello didn't, said to use his full name for this."

"So you have to call us what we say to." Raphael's smile grew. "If I said call me Owner of My Ass?"

"Then I would say it." Leonardo meet his look. "Owner of Your Ass."

Raphael laughed despite himself. "Okay, okay. Raph'll do. Take off the leash anyway. It's just gonna get in the way."

"I can't," Leonardo said again, tapping the carabiner. "Some of them really are that strong. This one and the ones on my cuffs, I cant budge them. He has a vise he uses to push them in."

"Huh. Well...if I guess if you can't lose it, use it."

Raphael wound the leash around and around his fist, pulling Leonardo closer. Leonardo didn't try to fight, but he put his hands around it and leaned back, keep the canvas taut until Raphael had him within reach.

"Sit. Let's get this show on the road."

Leonardo swallowed once, his gaze sliding back to the floor.

"Mikey...he had something in mind. He probably didn't think Splinter would keep him this long and—"

"Leo," Raphael said. "Sit."

"Just a little longer," Leonardo said. His voice grew small as he realized Raphael wasn't going to wait. "You know Mikey picks things up fast."

Raphael waited until his brother glanced up at him again.

"Sit." He patted the hammock beside him.

With a deep breath that shuddered as he exhaled, Leonardo came and sat beside him, hands on his lap. He didn't move, tensing as Raphael touched his cheek, put his knuckles under his chin and forced his head up. That he took Leonardo's hands, bringing them to his lips, kissing the backs, brought a confused look from his brother.

"Donny's making machines?" Raphael asked.

"Y-yes." Leonardo watched him turn his hands over for a kiss to each palm.

"He used one on you?"

"Yes." Leonardo sounded satisfied that he controlled his voice this time. "A whipping machine."

"How's it work?"

"I don't know," Leonardo said, but from Raphael's raised eyeridge, that wouldn't be enough. "It's like he said. He tied me down on a sawhorse and the thing spun around behind me. Every few minutes he changed it so it went the other way."

"With a whip?"

"A few thin strips of leather," Leonardo said. "He wanted to start small. Said he'll make a stronger one later."

"I think I'd like to see you in that." Raphael put his hand on Leonardo's cheek, gently turning him to meet his look. "Did you enjoy it?"

A blush. "...yes."

"Good. I'd like to see you squirm. But just a little."

Now Raphael took a kiss, pushing in close so that Leonardo put a hand on the hammock, holding it as he leaned back. When the kiss ended, Raphael stayed leaning over him, brushing a thumb under his eye.

"I might tie you up," he said, "but it's good knowing that ain't the only reason you stay put."

"Raph..." Leonardo started, not sure what to say.

"Now," Raphael said over him. "Let's get this started. Lock your hands together."

"...yes, Raph."

The change in his voice was immediate—softer, expectant, ready for the next command, especially now they both knew how they stood. Leonardo didn't need to worry about Raphael using this as an opportunity to abuse him.

Manhandle, whip, beat into a mattress...but not abuse.

When Michelangelo finally arrived, he found Raphael sitting up in his hammock, Leonardo between his spread legs, dutifully working the large cock in front of him. Michelangelo's gaze quickly dropped to Leonardo's ass and found it untouched, if still lined with the fading red welts of Donatello's attentions. So Raphael had spared Leonardo's feelings and let him perform as a sex slave rather than just taking him without any consideration.

Michelangelo chuckled. Not that it would do Leonardo any good in a few minutes.

Leonardo had stopped, turning to watch Michelangelo come in. Immediately he felt a light tug of the leash pulling his face up against the cock, and he went back to sucking while they spoke over him.

"Ready to share?" Michelangelo asked, locking the door.

"Figured you'd wanna split him after your workout," Raphael said. "Which end do you want?"

"Oh, I figured he'd ride us both," Michelangelo said. "He complains, but he can handle it."

Raphael tossed him the end of the leash. Leonardo was swiftly pulled up to his feet, swaying slightly as he caught his balance. Bound at the wrist, the canvas leash now formed a convenient thread to strap his hands up at his throat, and Michelangelo wound the canvas around his neck and hands, using the end carabiner to cinch his hands in place.

"You been good?" Michelangelo whispered, turning Leonardo to face him. "Been enjoying yourself?"

"Yes, master." Leonardo glanced over his shoulder. "We...reached an understanding."

"Aw, what a good little pet." Michelangelo gave him a kiss so Leonardo wouldn't see him waving Raphael close behind him. "See, this is already doing wonders for everyone. Donny's gonna get a good night's sleep, you're not arguing with Raph, I get to plow you every which way..."

As he spoke, he suddenly bent and gave Leonardo's legs a few light smacks, making him spread, then spread a little wider. And then Michelangelo put his arms under his brother and lifted, hauling him up and into Raphael's arms. Holding Leonardo's spread legs just under his knees, Raphael suddenly realized what his little brother meant to do. Raphael was just there for convenient muscle, to hold Leonardo up at the right height.

"This is gonna be tight," Michelangelo said, coming close so that Leonardo was pressed between them. "Get ready."

Who he was talking to, they couldn't tell. Leonardo look too many deep breaths, swallowing nervously, and his open mouth was too much temptation. Even as Raphael lowered him onto his cock, he pressed his mouth to Leonardo's, quieting him.

"Keep him from yelling," Michelangelo said. "He's usually pretty good, but...I should have brought a gag with me."

Michelangelo slid his cock along Raphael's, easing up against Leonardo's ass. Raphael only had his head in, but even that was enough to fill up their brother. With a little force, Michelangelo slipped in beside him.

They didn't try to push hard, instead thrusting in time with each other, making Leonardo bounce in Raphael's arms. As Leonardo pulled away, gasping for air, he was caught again by Michelangelo, silenced by his tongue. In this way they passed him back and forth between themselves, using gravity to pull Leonardo down an inch, then two, then three, deeper onto both of them.

Leonardo's mind swam in and out, growing increasingly lightheaded, as he was overwhelmed with the pressure and force inside him. His groans were swallowed before he could make them, any protests he might have had drowned in kisses. He couldn't even try to hold himself up, too wrapped up in metal and the leash to do more than bob like a toy on their cocks.

Raphael came first, but that barely relieved anything as his come filled Leonardo so that he almost thought he would find it coming from his lips. Raphael continued to thrust which brought Michelangelo over soon as well.

"...you..." Michelangelo sighed, leaning against them as he caught his breath. "You keep him tonight."

Raphael slowly lowered Leonardo to his feet, unsurprised when Leonardo folded and went to his knees, sprawling on the floor beneath them. The eldest look like he was going to pass out, staring at nothing as he panted.

"Donny gave him orders for tomorrow morning," Raphael said, grabbing the tissues from the nightstand.

"Gonna have to work out a schedule," Michelangelo said. "Well, Donny's gonna catch up on three days of sleep, so he can get his coffee in the afternoon. And then I think he's got another machine he's making?"

He glanced at Leonardo, but he was in no condition to answer.

Raphael was left to clean up, muttering about Michelangelo escaping from doing work, and he brought Leonardo up into his hammock. The canvas he could unwind, but his brother remained locked up with his bound hands at his throat. He didn't think that would be too comfortable...but as he lay down beside him, he found that it worked perfectly if Leonardo's head pillowed on his shoulder.

Callie Reviews: TMNT 2012 Season 2 (Part Two)

Continuing from Part One

The Shift (Episodes 15-18)

After a silly filler episodes that you LARP-ers will probably enjoy, the plot continues in I Think His Name is Baxter Stockman. Finally fed up with Stockman’s incompetence, Shredder triggers the mutagen collar and Stockman is turned into a fly mutant. But he gets the idea to mutate himself with... I really don’t fully understand the plan. To put it simply, he plans to kidnap April due to her unique DNA and have them mutated together to restore his humanity. Such a sound and totally not insane plan!

So part of the season has had Donnie trying to develop a retro-mutagen, a mutagen antidote that will revert the person back into a human. He finally succeeds and has two batches, one for April’s dad and the other or Splinter. The gang goes to get April’s dad, leading to Stockman finding them and kidnapping April. Although April tries to escape, even whacking Stockman with her tessen, she ultimately tied over the mutagen. One of the vials got broken, so Splinter tells Donnie to use the one that’s left to cure Kirby. As Leo, Donnie, and Casey go to save April, Raph and Mikey are sent to find and capture Kirby.

While April does get dunked into the mutagen, as it turns out due to her DNA she is immune to the effects. So since that plan failed, and really? Did we expect Stockman’s B-rated horror movie plan to work? But yeah, Stockman tries to steal the retro-mutagen with Rhazar soon joining the party! They all escape and meet up with Raph and Mikey, April calming down her father. But Stockman manages to steal the mutagen, forcing a huge aerial chase to get it. Which let me just say that April is awesome this episode. When the vial gets stolen, she rounds up her dad and Casey and goes after it. The vial ends up broken, but like Hell April is going to give up the chance of saving her dad after all the shit form before. She manages to get her dad below it as it drips and he reverts back to normal. Also once she gets freed after being mutagen dunked, she kicks Stockman’s ass hard. Seriously, this episode did a MUCH better job at presenting April as a badass who deserves to fight alongside the Turtles ten times better than The Kraang Conspiracy did.

So yeah, Kirby is unmutated, yay! But Donnie’s now fresh out of retromutagen. He feels guilty as now he can’t restore Splinter’s humanity, but Splinter makes it clear that he has come to terms with his mutant status and is happy as long as he has his sons. Stockman is brought before Shredder, who has decided to give him one last chance. There is a certain mutant that he wants, and tasks Stockman with creating it for him.

Speaking of the Foot, we return to the Karai story in The Wrath of Tiger Claw where the kunoichi is having doubts about everything. We also have Tiger Claw return... so what was the point of having the worm swallow him? Anyways, Shredder has him and Karai make a move against the Turtles. After beating intel out of their friend Murakami, Tiger Claw attacks Casey while Karai confronts April. She claims that she doesn’t want to fight, even thinking of turning on Shredder. When Leo and Donnie show up, Leo decides to do what is by no means a bad decision: take Karai to the Lair without questioning if this could be a trap at all! Our fearless leader everyone! Yeah, this is all a ploy by Karai to find the location and she has a tracker so that Tiger Claw will follow suit.

However with Karai there, Splinter brings her into the dojo and shows her a photo of himself and Tang-Shen. A photo that Karai herself has. When she sees the family portrait, it hammers the revelation in further. She cant believe it, which confuses Leo, so she reveals that it was a trap. But yeah, now Karai has physical evidence, so she now knows the truth. She and the Turtles get out of the sewers and to a butcher shop to lead Tiger Claw away and proceed to fight. Mikey end sup pretty badly beaten up as Karai cements her turn of alligence. Agreed, Tiger Claw knocks her out and takes her back to face Shredder. With Mikey’s injuries, the Turtles can't follow and Raph makes it clear that despite all of this, he still doesn’t trust Karai. Leo is angered by all of this, but ultimately there’s nothing that he can do.

Karai is brought before Shredder, Tiger Claw revealing her aiding the Turtles. Angered, Karai asks Shredder to tell ehr the truth. So Shredder does just that, revealing that yes, Splinter is her real father. This murders the last bit of lingering doubt in Karai’s mind. So what does Shredder do now that all of his lies are out on the table? He has Tiger Claw throw his so-called ‘daughter’ in the dungeon below! Father of the Year everyone! Oh, but you think all of this is bad! HA! Oh just wait. JUST WAIT.

The Revelations (Episodes 19-24)

We get three filler episodes after that. The first one is stupid and not worth mentioning other than that I hate it. One involving an arms dealer named Ivan Steranko (who we saw last season in Enemy of My Enemy) and a Tron-esque thief named Anton Zeck. They try to steal Shredder’s helmet, the Turtles get invovled, and Leo tries to use this to bargain for Karai. It fails. Remember those guys names though, it’ll be important next season. The other one is a Kraang plot where Raph gets his mind switched with a Kraang. A fun episode, especially since we get to hear Sean Astin have to talk Kraang-like and it is hilarious. But the episode ends with Raph revealing that the Kraang are about to start another invasion and Donnie revealing a plan for something he’s making to fight back: a mecha!

We return to the Karai plot with her trying to escape, but she sadly gets re-captured. Shredder, in both this and the previously menitoned episode abotu his helmet, has tried to tell Karai thing slike he was trying to do what was best for her or that how she��s acting is hurting him. You know... like an abuser would talk to someone. The Turtles have mad ea plan, but Splinter has forbidden it as he refuses to lose any of his other kids. Leo goes through with it anyways and it does work. They’re able to break Karai out, fight through the Foot, and get back to the Lair safely. Shredder... takes this surprisingly well. Why? Because he knwos that Karai is going to come back of her own volition to get payback. Of course you would you sick fuck, you raised her to be that way. God I hate Shredder...

Anyways, Splinter reveals to Karai the full story of what actually happened, including his relationship with Shredder. As it turns out, the Hamato Clan had wiped out the Oroku Clan, but Splinter’s father took pity on young Saki and adopted him into the clan. So Splinter and Shredder were raised as brothers, but things got tense when Splinter got together with Tang-Shen, who Shredder has been with previously, and when Shredder discovered his true heritage. Angered and fulled by vengeance, he and Splinter fought, but Tang-Shen sacrificed herself and took a lethal blow to save her lover. Shredder came out of it disfigured and during the chaos, stole the baby away, lying to her the ame way that the Hamato’s did.

Learning this on top of everything else, Karai decides to go back and personally finish Shredder. Leo finds out... and asks to go with her, also wanting to put an end to it. Wow Leo, so responsible there... Karai responds by knocking him out. She goes back and she and Shredder have one heck of a brawl, but ultimately Karai gets pinned and Shredder has her taken to Stockman’s lab. Why? Well remember that mutant that he asked Stockman to make Well it involves using Snake DNA in Stockman’s large vat to lure the Turtles in and mutate them into snakes. What do snakes like to eat? Why rats of course! Yeah, Shredder plans to mutate Splinter’s sons and have them devour him. Wow... wow. Does this man have ANY limit to how sick he can be?! Of course not because he ties Karai over it to serve as bait! There is NO WAY that THAT could go wrong in ANY WAY possible!

The Turtles and Splinter arrive and all but Leo get caught. He reaches Karai... but Shredder attacks him and severs the link. Karai is sent into the vat, turning into a snake mutant. Oh and on top of all of that, a fire gets ignited! So Shredder had kidnapped, lied to, and emotionally abused a young girl, threatened her with violence if she didn’t obey, locked her up when the truth came out, tried to paint himself as the victim when she was understandably pissed off, he used her as bait, and because of his own blind arrogance he got her mutated. SO who’s to blame for this? Why Splinter of course! OF COURSE! Shredder swears to avenge his daughter and I just want to break things. Splinter is able to break through to Karai and she flees. As Stockman’s building burns down, Leo apologizes to Splinter... but all Splinter says is that they should go.

One small note I have to make. When Stockman was preparing the DNA, he split something and it got mixed in. Thus creating a rather unique mutation. One that allows Karai to shift back into her human form, huh...

The penultimate episode, Into Dimension X, has the Turtles receive a message from someone we haven't heard from in over 20 episodes. My friends, Leatherhead is back! He tries to contact the Turtles via communication orb to warn them of the Kraang’s plans... but Mikey gets upset and breaks the orb. They also get a working portal for Dimension X and desperate to save his friend, Mikey stupidly goes in alone. It forces the other three to go in to find him, and kudos to the animation team. Dimension X both looks and feels totally alien. Most of the environment is crystallized and there are these strange little alien creatures. Add in the pink sky and it feels like a place the Kraang would come from.

So as it turns out, Mikey had become... very adapt to how Dimension X works due to his bizarre train of logic. TO out it simply, he understands Kraang logic mroe than regular logic. The Turtles get into the Kraang’s base, rescue Leatherhead, and discover that the Kraang, after nearly two seasons of trying, have perfected the mutagen. Thy can now use it to turn the Earth into a second Dimension X. While the guys cause some damage before getting back home, it is more clear than ever that the invasion is near. But it’s okay! Our boys are ready to face whatever comes at them! They can handle this, right?

Ha... haha... HAHAHAHA!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I’LL LET THAT SPEAK FOR ITSELF.

But yeah, we now enter the Season Two finale. This is actually both my favorite episode of the season and my favorite in the entire series. It’s one of the best-written, but... also the most depressing. Like this episode left me numb by the end. Why? Well let us go into...

The Invasion (Episodes 25-26)

Desperate to get Karai back, Shredder once more makes a deal with the Kraang. They help him get what he wants, and he helps them get what they want. So once again, Shredder decides to leave humanity to suffer all for his own needs. You see why I hate this monster?!

April and Irma get attacked by Foot Bots and unable to evade them, April is forced to take Irma to the sewers with her. Raph and Casey are on the lookout for Karai, but that gets cut short when the cops show up and try to arrest Casey. As it turns out, these are Kraang posing as humans. Worst? Raph sees Kraang portals opening and the Kraang dishing out everything that they have. UFO’s, robotic fleets, giant walker-things straight out of Star Wars. Casey is able to get free and overwhelmed, he and Raph are forced to try and find cover.

Down in the sewers, Donnie and Leo are arguing over the best course of action to take. Donnie wants to put his faith in the Turtle Mech, confident that it’ll dot he job despite still having kinks to work out. Leo however is concerned about if things could go wrong and wants to establish a second base outside New York. April arrives with Irma, who is taken back... before her body changes and reveals that she is a robot... UMM... so yeah, Irma was actually Kraang Sub-Prime, who was trying to work form within to weasel out the location of the Lair. Now that he has it, the Kraang open portals and attack. The gang gets quickly over-whelmed so Splinter orders the Turtles and April to flee. They head into the tunnels with Leo choosing to stay behind and fend off the Kraang droids chasing them while Donnie, Mikey, and April escape back to the surface.

Everything has devolved into chaos quickly. Raph and Casey are trying to evade the Kraang’s forces. Donnie, Mikey, and April flee to the O’Neil’s apartment where they watch the chaos unfold and poor Kirby has essentially a panic attack. Poor April feels guilty for it all due to bringing Irma to the Lair, even offering to go out and bring the boys to safety herself. Leo gets to the surface, but the Foot have spotted him and Shredder sends all of his forces after him. Splinter is able to defeat SUb-Prime, but the Lair is in utter ruins. But he has little time to grieve as he still has his sons to find. To make things worst, Kraang Prime emerges and launches mutagen all over the city, mutating everything and everyone hit with it. So yeah... things are NOT looking good.

Leo eventually ends up at a construction site where Shredder is waiting. Leo tries to make him fight him, but Shredder refuses as Leo is ‘beneath him’. Instead, he sends more Foot Bots and poor Leo is just getting pushed to his limits here. He’s under a lot of stress and pressure at this moment, and the constant attacks are not helping. He bests the Foot Bots in a... pretty brutal fashion that makes you really glad that he’s dicing and stabbing Foot Bots and not actual soldiers. Shredder has Rhazar, Fishface, and Tiger Claw attack him, provoking Leo to devolve to blind fury and kick their asses. But at this point, the leader in blue is exhausted, worn down, and not thinking clearly which leaves him vulnerable to Shredder, who casts the final, and most lethal, blow.

Shredder has his men take Leo away as he finds Splinter, who is NOT happy with the evidence that something happened to his son. Shredder responds by saying that he took Leo just like he took Karai all those years ago. This pisses Splinter off for VERY understandable reasons and they fight. Meanwhile, Raph and Casey finally make it to the apartment, but the relief is short-lived. Leo gets tossed through the window, knocked out and brutally beaten up. The Foot attack, forcing the group to escape. Kirby leads them to his old van they they try to escape in, but Kirby get shit with mutagen before he can tag along. Kraang Prime totally did that just to spite April. Asshole. The group flees in the van. Splinter and Shredder continue to brawl, but Splinter eventually gets trapped under some graters. Fortunately he earlier met up with Leatherhead, who jumps into the fray to save him. Unfortunately, while t works, Shredder gets the upper hand and knocks him into the icy waters. Splinter gets so pissed that he, by sheer force of will, knocks the grates away and tackles Shredder back into the sewers. All while trying to essentially bite his face off. DAMN.

Donnie, Raph, Mikey, and April go back to the Lair to find Splinter as they leave Leo with Casey, who goes to find his family. Spoiler alert: he sadly fails. The Lair is an utter wreck and realizing that they can't stay, Donnie has the guys round up supplies and anything significant before going to find Splinter and get out of the city. It’s a... really somber scene. The Lair is where we have spent the past two years. It wasn't just the Turtles home, it was ours in a way too. I Bremen seeing it trashed for the first time and I was just... crying. Mind you they make the bad choice of having them fix it u next season, which I think was dumb because it negates the emotional significance played up in this moment and potential growth for the cast. But for this moment? It was... hard. Really hard.

April soon senses that Splinter is in trouble and the four venture into the tunnels, discovering that Splinter is still fighting Shredder. The tunnel is caged off however, so they can’t reach him. Splinter gives it his all, even using the same airbending-like maneuver that he used in I. Monster on Shredder. But unfortunately, it fails. Shredder get sup, knocks Splinter out form behind, and literally flushes Splinter away. All while three of his sons and his surrogate daughter are forced to watch helplessly. Raph is enraged, angrily pulling and bating at the bars as Shredder walks away. Mikey eventually hugs Raph to calm him down, assuring him that somehow Splinter will be okay. April, enraged, tells Donnie that they can't run. They need to stay and end this here and now.

Their decision made, the four get the Turtle Mech and fight through the Kraang to reach the Foot. But they never get the chance to face Shredder again as Kraang Prime takes them on. They give it their best, even using the city’s power to use a powerful electrical attack n Prime that knocks out the city power grid. But even that proves futile and even fries the systems as Kraang Prime simply exits his robot suit and attacks personally. The only thing that saves them is April using her powers and Casey arriving to ram Prime back. They all flee formt he city, Donnie apologizing to the still comatose Leo for not listening. April hs a place where they can go, a farmhouse in North Hampton, but it does little to raise anyone’s spirits. The Turtles, for the first time, have completely and utterly lost.

As for Splinter, he is left in the city. But fortunately he is saved form drowning by, of all people, Karai. She doesn't stick around, but Thank God that we have something good happen cause Dear God did we need it! YEAH THIS EPISODE STILL HURTS EVEN FOUR YEARS LATER! 

TBC in Part Three...

Birthday

Fandom: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Characters: Donnie, Raph, Leo, Mikey. Relationship: Donnie/reader Request: It’s the readers birthday and she thinks Donnie has forgotten but he hasn’t because he was working on a birthday present for her Donnie hadn’t been out of the lab more than 2 minutes when you were there. His brothers had told you he hadn’t slept properly or even eaten. you were worried just like his family but that wasn’t the only reason you were here. it was your birthday. Splinter and the boys had invited you for dinner as a celebration but there had been one person missing. The very person in front of you now. “hey, Donnie.” You smiled despite your heart breaking with each passing second. it was obvious he had forgotten and it hurt you deeply. You cared for him more than you had ever admitted and although you weren’t expecting him to have got you a present with all the bells and whistles on, you expected acknowledgement. You were meant to be friends have all. “oh, hey.” Was all he said and moved passed you to go into his room. You stared at his back as he glanced over his shoulder. “something wrong?” he asked, turning back to face you while frowning behind his glasses. he had forgotten your birthday. He had forgotten you. All the years you had been there for him, after everything you had been to each other and he had forgotten. But there was so much more. He had been ignoring you for the last few weeks. Maybe he hadn’t forgotten. Maybe he didn’t care. you stood there staring at him for a moment as if you expected him to suddenly smile and pull out a card but nothing. You stared at him with wide eyes that soon began to water, much to his surprise. The second Donnie noticed the tears in your eyes, he rushed to you but you backed away nd turned on your heel, sprinting down the hallway. Donnie froze for a second, not able to understand why you would run from him. Normally, he was the only one to comfort you but now, he didn’t know what was happening. But something kicked him and he ran after you, his heart beating hard in his chest. But as he rounded the corner, his heart stopped. While you had already ran out the door and home, it was the living room that made him instantly understand. All around the walls were balloons and banners with your name on them. There was confetti on the floor and the aftermath on a meal which looked like it had been your favourite meal. He remembered Leo coming and knocking on his lab door, calling through the door that you were here and they were going to start eating but he just assumed it was dinner as normal. It couldn’t be that day. “Well done, genius.” He glared over his shoulder, meeting the gaze of Raph who was coming out of the kitchen with Leo and Mikey behind him. But Donnie knew he was in the wrong. “i-I didn’t realise it was that date.” He sighed as he hung his head in shame. “yeah, well. Doesn’t matter now, does it?” Raph half growled as he stormed past Donnie, ‘accidently’ catching his shoulder and making him stumble. Donnie thought of how you must feel. While he and his brother didn’t exactly have birthdays, you had dedicated a different day for them each year. It made them feel special and on that day, it made them feel normal. You went out of your way to make each of them happy. Donnie remembered how you had always went above and beyond for him and yet he had forgotten yours. “I-i…” Donnie stuttered as he turned to face Leo but he had no idea what to say. Leo sighed. “you know, she spent the whole day waiting for you.” Leo’s words caused Donnie to physically flinch because he knew it was true. Donnie couldn’t take the guilt or his brothers eyes and ran out the room, following you. ---------------time skip --------------------------- You stopped running the second you got onto the street. Tears ran down your cheeks but because it was late and dark, no one would know. You walked into your home, throwing your jacket on the floor and sitting on your couch in the dark. How could he had forgot? you buried your face in your hands and cried. Hard. You cursed everything including yourself. You shouldn’t be getting so upset. If you didn’t mean that much to him then its good thing because it showed you and now you could move on and not put so much faith in him. But why did it hurt so much? Maybe because you cared so much for him. He was your everything. You heard your window open and someone stumble through. You glance up through your fingers to see Donnie walling towards you, his eyes wide at your state. You took a deep breath and wiped the tears away with the back of your hand and standing. You were about to turn on your heel and walk into your room when a hand caught your wrist, gently stopping you. “wait. Please?” Donnie voice shook as he spoke. His voice sounded broken and lost as he pleaded with you to stay. You should have ripped your hand away from him and stormed through to your room but his voice was too much. You stayed as still as statue and waited. It appeared that Donnie was waiting for you tk say something but when you didn’t, you heard him let out a shaky breath. “I didn’t forget.” He half whispered, making you frown and look at him, your eyes filled with anger “no, you just didn’t care.” you growled, trying to pull your hand away but failing. “no, no I do care!” Donnie cried out, only pulling you closer as you struggled in his grip. “You have a funny way of showing it!” you hissed as you managed to wriggle out of his grip and step back from his, tears running down your cheeks. “I should have known better!” you scolded yourself, squeezing your eyes closed and covering your face with your hands, sobbing into the palms. “I should have known you wouldn’t care! Just like everyone else!” your voice broke as you cried into your hands. there was a moment of silence which was only broken by your sobs. but then someone wrapped their arms around your and pulled you close to a strong, hard chest. You peaked through your fingers to see Donnie chest. he was hunched over you. “don’t think that.” He sobbed in your ear as his tears fell from his face and landed on your shoulders. “We care about you. I care about you so much. God, I didn’t forget, I swear. I just lost track of time!” he pulled you closer and buried his head in your neck as you didn’t the same. “please don’t think that!” he begged in your ear. “Donnie, I don’t understand?” you breathed, hiccupping half way through it. Donnie pulled away, his eyes now bright red. You saw the bags under his eyes and from what his brothers had told you, he hadn’t slept in a few days. “your birthday present. Ive been working on it for a while and I wanted it get it finished. I-I just lost track of time and I didn’t realise what day it was. I swear I never forgot!” Donnie spoke like a broken man. He way he held you made you weak. You couldn’t bring yourself to speak so all you did was wrapped your arms around his neck and held him close. Donnie instantly reacted ti your touch and let out a shaking breath. You couldn’t help but cry as you held you. You could hear he was sobbing and his hands were shaking as they held you close. He kept mumbling how he was sorry and it sounded more like he was trying to convince himself he hadnt forgot. All you could do was hold each other. Eventually, you were all cried out and pulled away, unwrapping your arms from his form. “Sorry, I should have just come and spoke to you.” You half smiled to yourself. You hated that there was a lack of communication between you two considering you were normally so close. “No, its my fault. I cant believe i made you so upset on your birthday.” He shook his head, reaching out and gently stroking your cheek. “Its okay.” You whispered, dropping you gaze from his. You were partly embarrassed for letting him see you in such a state. “No, its not. You should never doubt how much I care for you. How much I love you.” Donnie’s words were soft and filled with a hidden passion you had never heard from him before. Looking up at him with wide eyes, you saw the dark blush dusting his cheek. You half expected him to run after his confession but he stood there awkwardly and rubbing the back of his neck. “Really?” You breathed, a little cautious. “of course. Ive always loved you.” He muttered, looking at his feet, his hands dropping to his side. With your heart beating hard in your chest, you step forward and ducked your head to meet his eyes. When he meets your eyes, you go up on your toes and press your lips to his in a sweet kiss. Donnie instantly kissed back, pouring all the passion he could find into the kiss. It was an apology and, at the same time, a promise of love. It was sweet and passionate. It made your head spin as he held you close and tightly, his hand still shaking. The kiss was short lived when you both heard movement from your window. You jumped a part just as Leo climbed through the window, followed by his brothers. Judging by the look he gave Donnie, which was a raised eyebrow and smirk, he had seen the kiss. You couldn’t help but smile at them as you quickly wiped away the tear with the back of your hands. Leo then whispered something to Raph who smirked and then Raph to Mikey. “I knew it!” He whispered, his eyes darting between you and Donnie so you knew Leo had just told them what you and Donnie had been doing. “We didn’t know if you two were okay or not so we brought this.” Leo spoke and nodded to Raph who was holding something behind his back. He was about to bring it out when Donnie darted forward to shield it from view, his back to you. “Don’t! Its not finished!” He said while shaking his head. “I don’t mind.” You spoke up, curious as to what was being hidden from you. Donnie sighed and you knew why. He could never say no to you. Especially after such a emotional moment together. You saw Raph smirk as he handed Donnie the item and Mikey was bouncing with excitement. Donnie turned, carful to keep the item out of view. “Its something from all of us. But its not finished yet.” He said, scowling at Leo who just smirked and nodded at you. It then hit you that you haven’t had any presents from the boys but you hadn’t noticed because you were too busy worrying about Donnie. He walked over to you and brought the item from behind his back. It was a small, black tablet. It was about the side of a book but really thin. You could tell Donnie had built it up himself because there was nothing like this on the market. You stared at it as Donnie pressed a button to turn it on. As it loaded, he took your hand and lead you over to couch. He sat one side of you and Leo the other. Mikey and Raph leaned over the back of the sofa to watch the tablet. The home screen was a picture of you. But it was one that, in a way, had all the turtles in it. You knew you could never have picture of them as your home screen in case someone saw your phone, but this was different. One day a few months ago, you had stolen all their weapons while they slept. You then took a selfie with the weapons on you and sent it to them. It symbolised each of them. You smiled at the photo. Donnie then started to tap on the screen, bringing up a menu filled with apps. You instantly saw it was all your favourite apps. It had a mixture of games and other apps including a few which looked like they were new. “I chose out all your favourite songs and also included some of my own so you can apricate them.” Mikey said, pointing at a music app. He sounded so proud of himself. “well, we all did.” Leo said, smiling at you then scowling at Mikey who just stuck his tongue out at him. “You’ve got all your photos of you and us in a secret file which had a password. Its [Date].” Donnie said as he tapped pictures, entered the password and brought it up. “That’s the date I met you guys.” You beamed. Donnie looked at you and nodded. You saw the love in his eyes. For the next 30 minutes, they showed you what was on the tablet. It had a whole range of different uses. It had apps for fighting move (chosen by Raph if they were deemed accurate), it had all your favourite books and movie on it, it had gadgets and apps that you didn’t think there was technology yet. Some things still didn’t work properly, which was why Donnie had said it wasn’t ready but you didn’t care. As you stared at the small device, you realised how much work and effort had went into making this and having all this information’s on it. They had all went out of their way to make sure it was perfect for you. “Like I said, its not finished yet.” Donnie said, locking it and handing it to you. You held it, noticing how light it was. “Thank you so much.” Your voice broke as tears began to pool in your eyes. “No ones ever done this much for me.” You felt 4 pairs of arms wrap around you, telling you not to cry but chuckling about it. You noticed Donnie, whos arms were around your waist, was holding you closest and rubbing your sides. Leo, Mikey and Raph pulled away. “We’re going to take off.” Leo said, offering you a smile. You knew from the look he gave Donnie that that didn’t include him. “Happy birthday.” They all said in unison as Raph placed a hand on your head and ruffled your hair. With that, they left. Donnie stayed by yours side, his arms still around you but once they had left, you leaned and cuddled into him. “Thank you.” You whispered. “its nothing. Im just sorry its not finished.” He said. You heard the disappointment in his voice. “Donnie.” You pulled back to look him in the eyes. “Im not talking about that. Im talking about everything. Everything you’ve done for me.” You reached out and cupped his face. “And even if it isn’t finished yet. No one has ever put that much thought or care into a gift for me before. I cant imagine how much time and energy you and your brothers put into it. How much you put into it.” You said as you rubbed your thumbs in small circles, making him lean into your touch. “We care about you.” He spoke in such a caring way about you. “But I love you.” He whispered. “I love you too.” You smiled. Donnie beamed at you and pulled you back into a sweet kiss. No matter what happened, you now knew you had people who cared for you and loved you. And that’s all you needed.
