Angel With A Warm Home (Angst/Fluff?)

IDW!Raphael x reader

A/N: Taking place after unmutated Raph gets separated from Splinter and his brothers, and just before he overhears the fight between Casey and his father.

Warnings: Hunger, homelessness.

His stomach rumbled as he dug through the trash, looking for something to eat. Anything at all. He just needed to eat. He did not care what it was. Leftover Chinese food, a half rotten tomato. Heck, he would even eat the soggy last few bits of an old salat. He just needed something!

Digging through the dumpster, he felt a slight dispersion build up inside of him, mumbling to himself as he jumped into the dumpster, in order to look further down. “C’mon. C’mon…” He pushed a filled plastic bag to the side, finding the corner of a discarded pizza box poke out beneath the trash. “Bingo!”

Excited to finally eat, he pulled the pizza box from the trash with a big smile, opening with a small dance of his shoulders. “Dinner is served”.

But the disappointment came, as he found the pizza box filled with nothing but grease and crumbs. “Damn”, he sighed, his shoulders slumping. “This ain’t gonna cut it”. With that he dropped the pizza box back into the dumpster, before he jumped out of the trash, landing with his feet on the pavement of the dark alleyway.

“Okay…”, he muttered to himself, tugging his hood closer around his face as the wind took a hold of his coat. At the mouth of the alleyway, he looked around, making out the two story houses on the other side of the street. “What’s next?”

Under the dim light of the full moon, he rushed over the street to the nearest townhouse, his eyes locked on the trashcan out in front, by the small path leading up to the front door.

Looking through the trash, he finally found what he was looking for. Food! The leftovers of a lasagna, probably from the day before. It was cold, but it did not matter. Food is food, and at that moment, that was all he needed. Hungrily eating what he found, he looked up in sudden panic when the light behind the front door turned on. Quickly, he ran to the hedge that separated the small front gardens, watching through the leaves as you walked out the front door, standing in the front step.

Your eyes scanned the street, all while he shivered behind the hegde. You were beautiful with soft human features. It caused him to look down on his big green three fingered hands, once again wondering why he had to be what he was. Why was he this strange creature, in a world of humans? It was scary. The last fifteen months had been horrible, and he still did not know how he ended up on the street in the first place.

Your eyes scanned the world outside your home, until they landed on the bush he was hiding behind. He hoped that you couldn’t see him, and that the only reason you kept staring at the bush was because you watched how the wind moved the leaves, and not his shivering and hungry form. But then you spoke.

“If you’re hungry, I can make you something to eat”, you called out, still looking at the hedge. He did not move, fearing that he had misheard you, and this was just his mind playing tricks on him. A beautiful human that offered him food. That couldn’t be real. Not after all the humans he had encountered had ran away in fear at the sight of his green skin.

“It’s okay”, you called out with a friendly smile. “I’m not mad at you. If you’re looking through my trash, you’re probably hungry, and I don’t mind making something for you”.

How could you be so nice to a stranger? You had not yet seen his skin, yet you stood outside in the cold, with no coat, sweater or jacket, to cover your tank top and joggers. Were you an angel of some sort?

He sighed. This might be his only chance of getting something to eat, that was rotten from the bottom of a dirty trash can. So with slow movements, he stood from behind the hedge, doing everything in his power to seem non threatening. As he moved away from the hedge, his two toed feet and lower half of his plastron now visible for you, he expected you to scream. He expected you to yell at him, telling him to get as far away from you as possible, before locking yourself in your house. But you didn’t. At the sight of him, you lifted your eyebrows in surprise, but you never looked fearful. You stayed calm, studying him, your eyes meeting his before you shut him a crooked smile.

“Does pasta sound good?”, you asked, gesturing towards your front door.

“That sounds more than good”, he answered, his mouth watering at the thought of finally eating some good food.

—

None of you spoke as you ate. Not that you felt uncomfortable. No, you had decided not to speak as he spoke, finally letting him satisfy the hunger that had been paining him for months, only keeping it at bay with the small food scraps he had been able to find on the street.

As he finished yet another plate, you got ready to fill him another one, but he stopped you, holding a hand up.

“I never thought I would say it, but I’m actually full”, he said, smiling for the first time in a long while.

You smiled at him, happy that the food had done him good, before taking both of your plates to the kitchen, loading them into the dishwasher. When you came back to the table, he was still sitting there, giving you a small smile as you came back in.

“So”, you started, returning his smile as you took a seat once more. “Do you mind me asking what your name is?”

His smile faltered, his eyes going blank. He hadn’t thought about that before. In the past fifteen months, he had never once thought about his name. All he had been wondering about was what happened to him, no memory of a time before the fifteen months.

“I- I don’t know”, he answered, his eyes falling onto the table where he started playing with his own fingers. “I’ve never thought about that, actually”.

Your smile disappeared as well, a concerned look washing over your eyes. You noticed how he suddenly seemed uneasy, his hands fidgeting on the flat surface of the table. You reached over, resting your hands on top of his in a comforting gesture. This caused him to freeze, staring at your hand on his. Never had a human felt comfortable enough to touch him, and never had he known how much heat human skin gave. Your hand was nice and soft, and he fought the urge to hold it.

“It’s okay”, you told him, unaware of his thought of holding your hand. “We’ll figure it out at one point”.

“We?”, he asked, looking confused.

“Yes, we”, you confirmed, giving his hand a small squish. “I’m assuming you don’t have a place to stay, so if you’re okay with it, I’ll let you stay in my guest room”.

He was almost floored, his mouth falling agape as he stared at you. Never had a human been so nice to him, and never had he thought that a beautiful human like you would invite him into your home, feed him warm food, and then offer up a room for him.

“Would you really let me do that?”, he asked in a whisper, almost not trusting his voice at the thought of a warm place to stay.

“If I wouldn’t then I wouldn’t bring it up”, you chuckled, letting go of his hand in order to stand up. He looked at his hand a little disappointed, wishing you would hold them again, warming them up like before.

He followed you up the stairs to the guest bedroom, waiting as you opened the door and showed him around.

“Here’s the bed, as you can see”, you said, making room so he could come in as well. “The heater, a desk, a closet. I don’t have any clothes in the closet tho”.

“That’s okay”, he said, pulling out at his coat. “I’ll make do”.

“If you say so”, you smiled, before moving out of the bedroom, pointing down the short hallway, showing him the bathroom.

—

That night he slept well for the first time in fifteen months. He dreamt about turtles and a rat, along with a large scary cat, that dragged him away from the others. But before this nightmare could turn any worse, he dreamt of a warm hand holding his own, along with your beautiful smile as you chuckled. He dreamt of you eating good food together, before spending time together, doing nothing but talking and hugging. You were not a bit scared of his shell, three fingered hands or his green skin. No, you hugged him as if it did not bother you one bit, at one point even resting your head against his plastron. And when the morning came around, seeing the golden light of the sun in through his window, he realized how fast his heart was beating at the thought of you, along with how excited he was to see you again. You were truly an angel. An angel with a warm home.

TMNT: SATURDAY MORNING ADVENTURES #13

May 2024

By Erik Burnham , Sarah Myer, Luis Antonio Delgado, and Ed Dukeshire.

In round two of the Ogglympics, the turtles have to face against other versions of themselves. If any of them gets knocked out, they lose, and if they let them win, then the other versions will cease to exist.

SCORE: 8

Mmm... how do I talk about this without the spoilers?

Well, let's say that this story managed to avoid the controversies of past interdimensional crossovers. But not without annoying a reader or two.

But let's stop on this page for a little while. I think this solidifies that Ace Duck is Harrison Ford (who played the main character in Blade Runner). This makes sense, as his planet already looked like the one in the movie in the IDW comics.

One thing that took me off a bit was the bit about Leonardo wearing the wrong mask. This was clearly supposed to be in color, so that both Raph and Leo would end up wearing red bandanas. And with that in mind, the joke would have made more sense. It's hard to tell what happened, because historically, the Mirage turtles appear in black and white in these crossovers.

Then again, something was off there, right? There were four turtles.

Spoilers after the break...

So, these weren't really the turtles of other dimensions, it was all Creepy Eddie impersonating them. This explains some oversimplified versions of the turtles, and also avoids getting into trouble with fans that love a version too much.

But that also means that this story is not a turtleverse crossover, something that I feel, people were banking on, probably making sure to buy several physical copies of it. Well, that will teach you not to trust in Mr. Ogg.

However, the last round will include villains from past and present and that will apparently include Tiger Claw and one of those dimension X worms.

That wouldn't count so much as a turtleverse crossover because they were supposed to fight them at some point. But technically it is. Unless this is all a misdirect again.

So... what were your thoughts on it?

Did you feel cheated by the marketing?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs. Street Fighter No. 1 (May 2023?)

The heroes in a half shell are no stranger to crossovers, especially in the realm of IDW’s comics continuity. They’ve tussled with the Ghostbusters, they’ve teamed up with Batman, they even crossed paths with X-Files’ Mulder and Scully. But their latest crossover is pitting the Hamato Clan against a cast of video gaming legends.

io9 has your first look at Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Vs. Street Fighter. Penned by Paul Allor, with art by Ariel Medel and colors by Sarah Myer, the five-issue miniseries sees the Turtles of IDW’s ongoing comic series—with Donnie, Mikey, Leo, and Raph joined by Jennika—heading to Atlantic City for a martial arts tournament... only to find that their opponents are some of the legendary world warriors of Street Fighter fame, like Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Guile. But while tensions between the heroes heat up at the tournament, they’re forced to put aside the fisticuffs to team up and investigate a series of mysterious disappearances.

“It feels amazing to bring these iconic brands together,” Allor said in a press release provided to io9. “I grew up with all these characters, though in very different ways—watching TMNT cartoons on Saturday mornings, and then a few years later, desperately smashing buttons while being absolutely destroyed at Street Fighter II. Readers are going to have so much fun watching these characters come together as they face an enormous threat to both teams, from Mikey and Chun-Li’s unlikely bond to Raph and Guile’s rivalry and mutual—but very grudging—respect. This book has it all: humor, danger, a massive number of twists and turns, and a ton of amazing, brutal, over-the-top, bonkers fight scenes! It’s gonna be a blast.”

Donatello has taken the experimental Venom that Baxter Stockman developed for Bane. Splinter is in Bad shape, and A Rampaging Donnie may be the last hope to solve the deteriorating Venom Formula.

  Cover B

BATMAN/TMNT 2 # 5 Writer: James Tynion IV Artist: Freddie Williams II Colorist: Jeremy Colwell Letterer: Tom Napolitano Cover Artist: Freddie Williams II & Jeremy Colwell Variant Cover: Kevin Eastman & Tomi Varga Editors: Jim Chadwick Asst. Editor: Liz Erickson Publisher: DC Comics and IDW Comics

What You Need to Know: Bane has taken over New York, he has the Foot Clan under his boot heel. After a terrible battle that the Turtles and Batman barely escaped from, Splinter was brutalized by Bane and is in critical condition. The Turtles escape but the damage has been done.

Donatello seems to take this harder than most and he decides to test the Venom on himself and become strong enough to take down the Foot and Bane on his own.

Batman and Leonardo try to calm his Rage, but Donatello is succumbing to the effects of the Venom.

What You’ll Find Out: Master Splinter was gravely injured by Bane. Raph takes care of him, but the prognosis is not good. Robin takes this opportunity to apologize. He started the battle that ended with Master Splinter being hurt. He tells Raph that he was raised to embrace his anger and rage by the Assassins that raised him, and that it is a struggle within to control that rage. Raph can relate, but Robin has an idea to save Splinter. They will open the Portal and take him to the Lazarus Pit below Gotham.

What Just Happened? Their plan of action set April and Casey prepare the portal, with guidance from Batgirl and Nightwing. They know that there’s a chance that Splinter will return with the Madness of the Lazarus Pitt. Batgirl and Nightwing are on hand, but they are all hoping that they will not need to stop a Ninjitsu Master the Caliber of Splinter.

Meanwhile, Batman and Leo are attempting to Calm Down Donnie. They are trying to reach the Scientist inside the muscle monster. They show Donatello the degrading Venom Formula, Batman tells him that the very formula that he took is unstable. They finally Breakthrough and Donnie tells them he can create an antidote.

The Lazarus Pitt works and Splinter returns. He takes the madness of the Pitt out of the army of Ninja Manbats that were sleeping in the Cave. Splinter Credits his ability to overcome this with his Zen Meditation (boy was he Scary!).

Bane enacts his Plan to Take over the city of New York. He plans to weed out the strong and control the populace with his synthetic Venom formula. Donatello still in his Hulking form, demonstrates the effects of his anti-Venom on himself.

Now with their Plan in place and the means to put an end to Bane’s reign of terror, the team discusses the one thing that will finish bane as the leader of the Foot Clan. With his defeat, they know that they will only follow someone who is stronger. Batman travels to Ryker’s Island to find the one man who the Foot Would follow in lieu of Bane. Oroku Saki, the Shredder.

Rating: 9 / 10 Final Thought: This story starts out with several emotional problems that the characters are going through and builds its way through a combination of action and family dynamics. It deals with loss, Inadequacies, and self-loathing. Enough that it is incredibly juicy and deep while holding the attention of the reader with the artwork. What a tremendous team of Tynion and Williams! They set the standards for TMNT and push the characters to their moral limits, just to keep us entertained. This gives us a glimpse of the characters in lights that we have never experienced before, and that is what keeps these two franchise’s both innovative and fresh. This is a great comic series, and if you have any love for either, I highly recommend reading this story.

you can pick which Leo. For fun. But you know how Leo always looks at his love interests with complete adoration, can I possibly get a scenario of his s/o being like “I really love the way you look at me sometimes?”

Eyes Of Love (Fluff)

IDW!Leonardo x reader

A/N: The lucky wheel chose IDW Leo for you. A short one this time, but I still thought it was cute. Hope you enjoy💙

Warnings: Spelling💙

Leonardo had always been known for his great control, both over his actions and emotions. He was focused, able to reach his goals within a very short time, all due to his well timed and thought out actions that brought him there. But there was one area where Leo had a hard time controlling himself, where it almost seemed impossible for him to keep his actions and emotions in check; you.

When Leo first met you, he fell for you hard, developing a crush on you that kept him awake at night, thinking about you with a happy beat of his heart. But for the first time, Leo wasn’t able to control himself. He would feel himself get nervous whenever you were around, focusing more on your presence than the task at hand, which often had landed Leo in some serious mishaps during training, causing his brothers much amusement.

But of course Leo’s nervous little crush grew stronger, and before long he finally managed to pull himself together, using the determination and focus he had trained in this life and his past one. He finally confessed his feelings for you, and asked you out on a night stroll around New York. And to his delight, you accepted, letting him know that you reciprocated his feelings.

During that date, you and Leo had your first kiss, sitting on top of an apartment building, overlooking the streets below. A small sweet kiss, mirroring the sweet and soft feelings you and Leo had for each other. And that was the start of you and Leo’s relationship as more than just friends.

But even as your relationship developed, only getting stronger and more serious, Leo still lacked a certain amount of control when you were around. Mainly the ability to control his eyes. Whenever you were in the room, or your voice could be heard in the next room, Leo’s eyes would automatically search for you. And as soon as his eyes landed on you, they would stay there, finding peace in the knowledge that you were close by.

You had of course noticed your boyfriend’s eyes lingering on you, butterflies erupting in your stomach when you saw the adoring look in his eyes. Even back when you were nothing but friends he would look at you like that, and even back then your stomach tingled at the way he would look at you. To say that you liked the way Leo was looking at you, was an understatement - you loved it! Even when you were sitting together, just you and him, either at the dining table, on the couch, or maybe even lying in bed, he would look at you like that, listening to your every word while he took in all of your features, feeling his love for you grow even stronger.

One Friday evening, you were laying with Leo on your couch, telling him about your day at work. Leo was nodding along to every word you spoke, a small smile spreading across his face, as his eyes took in your features once more. Your beautiful eyes, and the shapes your pretty mouth made as you spoke. He once again questioned how he was so lucky, that the universe decided to let him have you. Whoever he was in his past life, he must really have been a good person in order to be rewarded so well.

However, Leo was soon pulled out of his thoughts about what a gift you were, had the sound of your small giggles.

“What’s so funny?”, Leo asked with a smile.

“I really love the way you look at me”, you smiled, wrapping your arms around him, pulling him closer, so that you could rest your chin against his plastron, looking up at him through your eyelashes. “It makes me feel like I’m beautiful”.

“That’s because you are”, Leo smiled, placing a kiss on your forehead. “You are beautiful, and I love to look at you”.

You smiled brightly, titling your head upwards, pushing your lips forwards, asking him for a kiss. And with a smile, Leo gave you what you asked for, pressing a sweet kiss to your lips, before wrapping his arm around you, making sure both of you were lying comfortably, before asking you to continue telling him about your day.

Why They Fell In Love With You

IDW!Turtles x reader

Leonardo:

Leo was drawn to your unwavering determination and sense of responsibility. Your dedication to justice and helping others mirrored his own values. Your compassion and understanding during his moments of self-doubt and frustration made him realize that you were not just a partner in crime-fighting or daily life struggles, but a pillar of strength that he could lean on. Your shared commitment to the greater good and the way you inspired him to be a better leader made him fall for you, appreciating the depth and character you brought to his life.

Raphael:

Raph found himself drawn to your strength and resilience, along with your sarcastic comments that was almost as sharp as his own. Your determination to stand up for what you believed in, even in the face of adversity, resonated with him deeply. Your courage inspired him to confront his own fears and vulnerabilities. He admired the way you faced challenges head-on, and your unwavering loyalty to those you cared about made him feel a profound connection. In your presence, he found solace and a sense of belonging, realizing that you were not just a partner in battles but the anchor that kept him grounded.

Donatello:

Your intellect and curiosity captivated Donatello from the beginning. Your endless questions and fascination with technology sparked his own enthusiasm, making every conversation with you a delightful exploration of ideas. He admired your quick wit and problem-solving skills, and the way you embraced the intricacies of the world around you. As he witnessed your passion for learning, he found himself enamored by the way your mind worked, realizing that you were not just a companion but a brilliant soul that complemented his own thirst for knowledge. And the fact that would make him coffee was a great bonus.

Michelangelo:

Mikey fell for your infectious joy and love for life. Your laughter was like music to his ears, and your ability to find joy in the simplest things brought a new light to his world. Your playfulness and willingness to join him in spontaneous adventures made every moment with you feel like a celebration. He cherished the way you embraced the present, and your positive outlook on life made him appreciate the beauty in the little things. Your warmth and the way you made him smile even in the darkest moments made him realize he couldn't imagine his life without you and your pretty smile.

Visions Of The Past

IDW!Leonardo x reader

I’ve not read all of the IDW comics, but I’ve read enough to know about their past lives, and to be honest, I LOVE IT! But also so sad omg😭

Made it with Leo, because he can remember parts of their past life.

Warnings: Spelling, mentions and description of death and loss of loved ones. Angst?

—-----------------------------------------

Leonardo found himself remembering the past his father talked about in glimpses. It was never a full memory he could control, nor was it something he could truly place in time. But he did feel things when he remembered. When he was sitting alone at home, he could remember a time that was peaceful. It was the closest thing he would ever come to a childhood, and it was so long ago.

Leo could remember the small faces of his brothers, and the games they would play in their little house. He remembers his father coming home in his armor, greeting them with a smile and a big hug. And he remembered the face of a woman he called mother. A face that still made him feel safe in his new life. Her dark hair, soft eyes and big smile. She cared for them, all the time, every day. She bathed them. Leo could remember the love he felt when she bathed him, while he played with the bubbles in the water. Her hugs were warm and her voice was soft. She had called him and his brothers by a name that he no longer could remember.

Leonardo did spend more time than he would like to admit, remembering those days. Back when he had five fingers instead of only three, and black hair instead of green scales. But that also meant reliving that night. The clearest of his memories from that time. He could remember that his father wasn’t home that night, as his mother tugged him and his brother in to sleep. She had told them stories and played with his hair, calming him until he fell asleep. He then remembered walking up to the sound of voices, and seeing it as it was happening. It happened so fast, and even to that day, it still hurt him to think about it. His beautiful mother on the floor, her eyes live less and her blood on the floor planks. The face that had loved him, drained of life, staring back at him.

The next moments had always been a blur for Leonardo. His father had made it home, and slain the people that had killed his mother. He remembered grabbing his youngest brother in his arms, before running with his father out into the night, carrying his two other brothers.

The following time was yet another blur for Leo. A patch work of glimpses and pictures like frames. Nature, training, his brothers, his father. These glimpses usually came in dreams, with sounds, no names, just a memory playing for a few seconds.

Then, one night in his sleep, he saw a new face. A kind face. A pretty face. He would go as far as to say it was prettier than his mother’s. She smiled, laughed and took his five fingered hand. Leo’s eyes snapped open, with her laugh still ringing in his ears. It made his stomach tingle and his hands sweat. That laugh excited him, but it also made him scared.

For several nights he saw her face and heard her laugh. She trained with him, helped him take care of his brothers when his father wasn’t there to help, and walked with him in the meadows. At times she would hold his hands in hers. Leo would then wake up with the feeling of her hand in his, but when he looked down, it looked nothing like the hand she had held in his dreams.

In the meadows the sun would dance on her skin, and at night the stars would sparkle in her eyes. He said things to her that made her smile, or even made her try to hide a blush. Leo wondered what he had told her, and he wished he could tell her again. He liked her face when she blushed.

Leo had often wondered if he should ask Master Splinter about her. Did he remember her? Did he know her name? Or was that forgotten like their old names was?

Then one night, he had a dream different from any of the others. It was him and her, laying together in the meadow, staring at the stars above. They held onto each other, as they pointed out things they saw in the sky. He looked at her while she talked and pointed, happiness dancing in her eyes. She noticed him staring and looked back at him with a smile and tinted cheeks. They got closer and he closed his eyes, but he felt something soft being pressed against his lips. They pulled back, looking at each other for some time before leaning back in for another kiss. Had he only known that was the last time he saw her…

The next morning Oroku Saki had followed his father home to their hiding place. Bound and kneeling with his brothers in front his father, Leo showed no emotion. No fear. He did not want Oroku Saki to think his father had raised a coward to lead the Hamato clan. But as their fate became imminent, and his brothers started to cry, Leo started to think of her. He wanted her to be the last thing on his mind, before Oroku Saki would take his life. How he wished he could have seen her one more time. Hold her tight and tell her how much he loved her. He had dreamed of living with her the same way his father had lived with his mother; in love with many children.

He did not cry when the blade landed upon his neck, slicing his head clean of his body. Instead it was her laughter ringing in his ears.

When Leo woke up, he wanted to cry. And so he did. He found a place he could be left alone by his friends and family, before bawling his eyes out. Oroku Saki had taken so much away from him. His mother, his former life, her… There had been times where Leo wished he couldn’t remember, and this was one of those times. It hurt to remember, and it hurt to think of what happened to her. Did Oroku Saki know of her? Did he find her and killed her because of her ties to the Hamato clan? To him. Did she look for him at the hiding place, only to be met by his and his family's decapitated bodies?

As time went on, more questions started forming in Leo’s head. If Oroku Saki didn’t kill her, did she move one? Did she find a man that could take care of her the way he wished he could have done it, and raised the children he dreamed of having with her? Was she happy with him? Did she love him more than she ever loved him? Did she think of him while watching her children grow?

These thoughts made it burn in his heart and stomach. He thought of both outcomes as horrible, but he couldn’t escape it. He just couldn’t stop thinking about her. As Leo and his brothers traveled across the rooftops of New York City, he kept seeing her face in the eye of his mind. Her eyes shining when she looked at him, and her hair flowing in the wind - BANG!

“Leo!”, his brothers yelled, running to the edge of the roof, watching him lying confused in the dumpster he had fallen into.

“Are you okay bro?”, Mikey asked.

“Y- yeah. I’m fine…” Leo sat up in the dumpster, rubbing his aching head, looking to the street at the end of the ally. His heart almost stopped. There, on the other side of the street, by the street light with a phone in her hand. It was her face. Her smile. And as she leaned her head back, laughing at whatever she had seen on the screen of her phone. Leo wanted to cry. He wanted to run to her, and hug her the way he dreamed of before he died. It was her.
