#Splinter doesn't like that stuff

[magsterdragster]

As a fellow scene kid, does Leo ever do any Kandi trading? :3

Yeah!! He definitely would if he had anyone to do that with..

His brothers aren't really into it, except Mikey. Who is really just into it bc colorful bracelet & it was something they could do together. Though Raph and Donnie did keep the ones Leo made for them, they don't wear them and they didn't make any with him.

And Leo doesn't dress up or even make them anymore, though he still has all his beads and things tucked away in his room.

He'd totally be down for getting them back out and trading if he found someone to do it with!! Any excuse to get back into that stuff he'll take!

[skeleton-in-a-hoodie]

I think DDMG Splinter does stuff that's totally unnecessary due to him being a ghost/ demon, but he does it anyway for the Turtles.

Like he uses an oven mitt/ tea towel when he's taking stuff out the oven. He doesn't need to, it's not going to burn him, but he wants to set a good example for his sons.

Goes up stairs to bed when his sons due, despite being nocturnal, because he wants to make sure they have good habits and he kinda likes having a few hours to himself before having to visit New York.

Can survive on a lot less food than a human, but eats meals with the Turtles because it's nice and also the boys asked him to. Splinter makes sure the Turtles have enough food before he thinks about eating, meanwhile the Turtles are determined to make sure Splinter eats, because they know he's not good at looking after himself. Rat dad puts weight on as a result - this is a good thing, and he is very surprised to find the constant hunger gone for the first time since he could feel hunger after dying.

When it's cold, wearing boots, a warm coat, a scarf and gloves, also to set a good example, even though he can't feel the cold. Kinda difficult to find him a coat that fits (really tall + weird body proportions due to being a rat demon), but Raph made the scarf and gloves.

Random incorrect quote about the fic

April: Why and how is Raph a tot!?

Donnie: I might've accidentally turned him into a tot? He thought it was apple juice.

April: What- I'm not surprised, that's Raph. Also why are you guys so chill?

Leo: Relax, weird stuff happens all the time.

Mikey: Yeah, and Raph will be back to normal soon!

I don't know I'm not done talking about it. It's insane that I can't just uninstall Edge or Copilot. That websites require my phone number to sign up. That people share their contacts to find their friends on social media.

I wouldn't use an adblocker if ads were just banners on the side funding a website I enjoy using and want to support. Ads pop up invasively and fill my whole screen, I misclick and get warped away to another page just for trying to read an article or get a recipe.

Every app shouldn't be like every other app. Instagram didn't need reels and a shop. TikTok doesn't need a store. Instagram doesn't need to be connected to Facebook. I don't want my apps to do everything, I want a hub for a specific thing, and I'll go to that place accordingly.

I love discord, but so much information gets lost to it. I don't want to join to view things. I want to lurk on forums. I want to be a user who can log in and join a conversation by replying to a thread, even if that conversation was two days ago. I know discord has threads, it's not the same. I don't want to have to verify my account with a phone number. I understand safety and digital concerns, but I'm concerned about information like that with leaks everywhere, even with password managers.

I shouldn't have to pay subscriptions to use services and get locked out of old versions. My old disk copy of photoshop should work. I should want to upgrade eventually because I like photoshop and supporting the business. Adobe is a whole other can of worms here.

Streaming is so splintered across everything. Shows release so fast. Things don't get physical releases. I can't stream a movie I own digitally to friends because the share-screen blocks it, even though I own two digital copies, even though I own a physical copy.

I have an iPod, and I had to install a third party OS to easily put my music on it without having to tangle with iTunes. Spotify bricked hardware I purchased because they were unwillingly to upkeep it. They don't pay their artists. iTunes isn't even iTunes anymore and Apple struggles to upkeep it.

My TV shows me ads on the home screen. My dad lost access to eBook he purchased because they were digital and got revoked by the company distributing them. Hitman 1-3 only runs online most of the time. Flash died and is staying alive because people love it and made efforts to keep it up.

I have to click "not now" and can't click "no". I don't just get emails, they want to text me to purchase things online too. My windows start search bar searches online, not just my computer. Everything is blindly called an app now. Everything wants me to upload to the cloud. These are good tools! But why am I forced to use them! Why am I not allowed to own or control them?

No more!!!!! I love my iPod with so much storage and FLAC files. I love having all my fics on my harddrive. I love having USBs and backups. I love running scripts to gut suck stuff out of my Windows computer I don't want that spies on me. I love having forums. I love sending letters. I love neocities and webpages and webrings. I will not be scanning QR codes. Please hand me a physical menu. If I didn't need a smartphone for work I'd get a "dumb" phone so fast. I want things to have buttons. I want to use a mouse. I want replaceable batteries. I want the right to repair. I grew up online and I won't forget how it was!

Bouncing on Toji’s cock even while he’s overstimulated <3 ddlg reader

His head’s tilted back, hairline freshly damp with sweat, his chest heaving with every deep breath as he grips the arms of the chair hard enough to splinter the wood. He already came. Gosh, he already came—stuffed you so full the first time you felt it spill out before you even stopped grinding.

And yet, here you are. Still bouncing on his poor cock. All messy and filthy and giggling softly with your hands braced on his broad shoulders, your thighs trembling but still determined as you use his cock like your own little toy because fuck it feels so good stuffing you up.

“Darling” he groans, voice hoarse and edged with warning. His fingers twitch, aching to hold your hips still, but he doesn't—he can’t.

Not when his sweet girl is looking down at him all bright-eyed and pouty like that, acting like it's his fault for being so big, so deep, such a perfect fit for your cunt that he carved out perfectly after months and months of sex—just for him. His plump tip is twitching and leaky as it punches your g-spot over and over.

“You said you were done,” you murmur through a sugary whine, lips brushing the corner of his jaw as you bounce again—a little slower this time like you're savoring it. “So why's your cock still hard, huh?”

He swears under his breath, eyes fluttering shut as his hips jerk up without his permission. “You don't know what you're doing” he rasps, his jaw tight as he looks at you with half-lidded eyes. “I'm too fucking old for this shit—‘m sensitive, baby, fuck—“

But your little giggle is wicked now, dragging your fingers down his big sweaty, chest, tracing the muscles that flex under your touch like you're testing just how far you can push him. “Then why does it keep twitching inside my cunnie?” you whisper sweetly. “Feels like it wants to cum again”.

Toji growls, real deep in his throat, bucking up into you with a desperate snap of his hips that makes you gasp. You weren't ready for that one—not so deep, not so mean—it caught you off guard. You stutter a breath, hands scrambling for his chest again as he grabs your hips hard, holding you still forcefully.

“You're gonna fucking break me,” he mutters through clenched teeth, watching the way your pretty mouth falls open, eyes wide as he holds you there, impaled on his fat throbbing cock, stuffed full of the last load still leaking around the base.

You roll your hips in tight circles, whining pathetically. “Daddy…it's leaking out”

“Yeah? That what you wanted?” he pants, fucking up into you deep and slow— dragging his cock against the swollen mess inside your cunt, making sure to stuff his cock all the way to the hilt so your pube hairs grind against each other’s “Greedy fucking baby, so full and still not satisfied”.

Your legs are shaking, and your voice cracks when you try to sass him back, but it's nothing but a breathy moan. “Wanna... wanna feel you again,” you whisper. “Need it, daddy—need you to fill me again, even if it hurts!”

He snarls something feral under his breath, hands gripping your thighs to bounce you harder now with his sheer strength, ignoring his own overstimulation just to ruin you. “Fuckfuckfuuuck, You're gonna be the death—hah!—of me, kiddo,” he moans. “But if you want it so bad—fine. I'll fucking give it to you”.

And he does.

Even if his legs are cramping and he's seeing stars from how sensitive he is. Even if he cums again with a strangled grunt, filling you a second time while your nails rake down his chest and you sob into his neck, overwhelmed and stuffed to the brim.

Because you wanted it.

And he always gives his baby what she wants.

Is Rise Raphael that different from other Raphael's?

I feel like writing about this because people really believe that Rise Raphael has nothing in common with the other iteration and say that he's too different.

Are you sure about that?

Just listen to Splinter and what he has to say to Raphael in the 2007 movie.

Those are qualities that Rise Raphael himself has.

You always bear the world's problems on your shoulders

It is an admirable quality, when you are the protector of others

You are strong

Passionate

And loyal to your fault

These are the merit of a great leader as well

But only when tempered with compassion and humility

Rise Raphael sometimes feels mischaracterized by a few fans, the only reason, why he doesn't let his anger out on his brothers like 2012 or 2003 Raphael, is simply by his design.

He is too strong.

He is capable to shake a whole building without trying and he needs a different sparring partner to really let it all out.

He can't do that with his brothers, he would literally hurt them or worse.

Does this mean that Raphael never displays anger towards his brothers at all? no.

Raphael throws stuff, smacks the back of his brothers head or uses other ways to make his brothers stop, when angered.

If Rise Raphael was short as everyone else, he most likely go ham like his counterparts.

[dreamweave01]

Donnie's basically canon Donnie up until a point right? So the same Donnie who used to be so desperate for some kind of parental approval saw this version of Splinter being caring with Mikey and being, presumably, even more distant from Donnie than even his version of his dad, because yk... He doesn't like... Know him the way that his own dad does. So he saw that he was protective of and caring towards Mikey, but didn't immediately start fathering Donnie and was like... I'm basically a suspect to him

Oh that's tragic

Can we pretty please get some aftermath stuff of Splinter comforting him?

Welcome back to another episode of "Turtle Gets a Hug"

Dee tried so hard not to get attached to this new family of his, he really did, avoided anything that would get him to care for them.

And he did fine for the first month or two, but eventually, one by one, they got through his defenses. He found himself coming to love the people he had lost.

With that newfound devotion came the deep sense to prove himself - to his parents, yes, but also his brothers.

He helped them out where he could, all the while staying in control of his emotions, because one wrong move would surely send everything falling apart again.

But nobody's perfect.

When Donnie saw the Foot? When he lost his temper? Yeah, he knew he was done for. I mean, he yelled at Mikey, his parents' precious little golden boy. There had to be repercussions for that.

And his parents weren't exactly thrilled at his outburst, that much was true.

But they also knew that he's been through a lot, and that these kinds of outbursts were bound to happen at some point. (Draxum's made the comment that it's a step up from him keeping everything in all the time.)

Needless to say, there's a lot of confusion and lack of communication on both sides.

Which'll hopefully get cleared up one of these days. . .

You've totally nailed this, yes. I have a little comic idea planned that'll dive more into Donnie's relationship with Splinter and the other two parents (I got no idea when I'll actually finish it though)

So have this for now :D

[4evermutated]

bayverse! April headcanons

because i hate the way megan fox was sexualised in the movies i wanna give her more personality than just being hot and smart 😭 i heart u bayverse April

- she thrifts! not just expensive 'real vintage' designer labels but everything, she also finds clothes than can be easily upcycled and tweaked for the boys. Her signature color is yellow so you KNOW she has rare and whimsical pieces she collects in her wardrobe

- speaking of which; she sews! Mikey often rips or breaks his stuff (like shoes and shirts) and hes always giving her bits and pieces to fix up. As much as Donnie is a tech wiz, Aprils expertise lies in the art of DIY! shes tried to teach Don how to sew but ironically its one of the few things he cant crack

- shes a stem nut, OBVIOUSLY! her and Don bond the most over new technology and the advancement of science and digital technology. her and Don made her a pc from scratch and its one of her most precious memories

- April has a really bad sweet tooth, when the guys get pizza for the rare nights in, she's reaching for Mikeys candy stash for sure (she makes sure to replenish it with all their shared faves)

- her favourite candy is anything sour! but actually sour, we're talking throat numbingly sour to the point where at the end of the bag all you taste is blood 💀 it freaks everyone out lmao

- she has a masters in journalism and a degree social sciences, its so important to her to give visibility to the stories rarely talked about. Shes very dedicated to her profession and genuinely gets mad that all vern cares about is attention from fans and the camera

- April is also very passionate about nutrition and fitness! she goes total big sister mode when the turtles neglect their protein intake especially with how big and physically demanding their jobs are. a few times she's tried to teach Leo how to cook for his brothers and hes just about learned how to not burn eggs on toast but shell be damned if she starts cooking for 4 6ft men 😭 respectfully not her job!

- she's incredibly protective of her friends, whoever they may be, even Vern. she doesn't take lightly to disrespect and she WILL trash talk you to silence if you make anyone she cares about feel less than

- when she was younger she wanted to be a zoologist or anthropologist. Like her dad, she's always had a love for science and research, but she loved animals so much as a kid and it crushed her when she realised her father was experimenting on animals

- she feels personally responsible for the turtles and Splinter, she visits them atleast once a night, whether on face time or in person. the fact that they feel theyll never be accepted in society weighs heavy on her heart. she wishes things were different

- she knows Mikey has a crush on her, but she doesn't know how to let him down gently and honestly doesn't wanna open that can of worms, so she just pretends she doesn't notice his very desperate flirting

- sleeper build april. SLEEPER BUILD APRIL. people treat her like shes fragile just because she's beautiful but shes also incredibly strong with amazing endurance. i mean hello?! SHE CAN RUN IN HEELS. thats badass

- she loves game nights w the turtles and Casey, she loves playing MK and her go-to character is ofc Mileena (goated and no im not biased)

- she may or may not have a dedicated collection of disguises for super sleuthing and recon. shes very proud of it and will give a tour if asked

- she wants to learn ninjitsu, just doesn't know if she should ask or wait to be asked. she feels awkward and sometimes wonders if its not her place, even though in reality Splinter would be happy to train someone so dedicated to justice.

- her favourite drink is banana protein smoothie!! the lair has a blender just for her 😭 they have to hide it from Mikey before he gets back into his liquid pizza phase again

- she likes hero comics/shows (like 2012 leo!). Naruto was her childhood and its kinda beautifully ironic that she's like a ninja by proxy now

thats all for now! its been like 5 years since ive written headcanons so sorry if the format is boring, lmk if you want more headcanons! ok bai

[angelpuns]

OKAY SO HERES THIS NEW AU IDEA OKAY:

Maybe Taisho-Showa Era Japan? I'm not sure yet, but probably around that time. Leo is the current sword of the Hatamotos ( same name as Rural Au turtles ) and Splinter and his bros are like...hiding him from the Gods or whatever. I have more ideas for that but I haven't ironed out the details yet. The point is he is being kept inside to keep him safe, not cause he's afab but because he's literally like. The current sword. And even tho its peaceful rn they're scared and stuff.

Every afab person in the Hatamoto line eventually takes on the helm of the Kusanagi/Grasscutter sword and protects Japan from Gods or smthn like that. Also Kusanagi has a certain look to it but I'm making it a Katana for au reasons.

This is also a Usagi-POV au, so Usagi is the main character :) he's the eldest son of a sword-making family, but he doesn't want to make swords, he wants to actually become a swordsmen ( I'm not sure yet about if he wants to be a samurai or what exactly the political situation was in Taisho Japan so more on that after I do research)

I'm going for Ghibli vibes, but again I mean in the ' anti-war, environmentalism, the depravities of war on citizens,' THAT kind of ghibli vibe. It's like Rural Au, but is gonna be something different cause the lore is soooo much different than in the rural au ( and there's like...mystic shenanigans where there aren't in rural au lmao)

Anyway more on this when I'm able to draw :)

[tammyu-2]

I LOVED UR LAST ONE how about 2012 donnie introducing his gf to everyone for the first time how would that go

OOOOO okay so I'm gonna do a different way Donnie and you meet if that's cool?

TMNT 2012 DONNIE INTRODUCING YOU TO HIS FAMILY

Mentions of Y/n, feminine labels, usage of she/her pronouns, some swearing, not proofread.

I adore his face in this gif

You had met Donnie at the dump. That's right, I said it. He was trying to find more parts for his machinery, and you had lost a precious family heirloom. So after misunderstandings and someone almost getting tazed (Donnie), you guys talked things out. After that, you met again when he was in battle. He insisted on you guys actually properly hung out.

So after one hang out became two and two became three. Soon, hangouts became dates, and soon, you guys were two peas in a metaphorical pod. The way he asked you is by trying to show you a project in disguised as him asking you out. Of course, the turtles didn't know, so he did it at an abandoned garage that he found was close by. (He later on used it for any projects he didn't want his brothers ruining.

"Watch closely my dear assistant!"

"Uh Don? Is it supposed to be letting Grey steam out?"

"I assure you I know what I'm doing."

"But the vial is shaking-"

"Trust in me!"

You know, in cartoons, when stuff blows up, leaving the black gunk on everything but the safety glasses? Yeah, that's what happened. He then explained what it was meant to do, and you were flattered at his attempt and accepted his proposal.

Now, his brothers had no idea that you existed other than the time you were a hostage for the kraang one time. But they really didn't bat an eye on how you already knew Donnie's name cause they were too busy saving you and the others. Plus, they were suspicious when Donnie's obsession with April suddenly stopped.

"Yo Dontron what's wrong with you? You didn't even bat an eye at April today!"

"I have no idea what you are talking about. I did blink several times like normal."

"He is saying that you didn't go all goo-goo eyes for her."

"Oh! Yeah, no, I have a girlfriend now."

"Ha! Nice joke. What nation is she from? Your imagination?"

"I'm serious."

"Sure you are."

So he brought you around to show that he indeed was serious. You would be lying if you weren't a little scared to meet his family. I mean, what if they like to banish you from ever meeting Donnie again because you coughed wrongly in their house or something???

Though Donnie assured you that their opinion doesn't matter to him. Not really easing your spirits, though, because he still didn't clarify that you shouldn't be afraid of MEETING them. More or less that he didn't care if they did disapprove.

"Everybody! This is my absolutely wonderful girlfriend Y/n. I thought you guys would want to meet her."

You politely waved at them with a gentle smile.

"How much is he paying you? Cause we don't have money at all, he's scaming you."

"Are you like a robot or something? I don't see your wires."

"So are you being held hostage if so blink twice."

"GUYS WHAT THE FRICK!?"

Fr tho- guys have faith in your brother that he has some game

Donnie quickly goes to apologize to you only to see you absolutely losing your shit and failing to hold in your laughter. After a few moments you gather yourself and clarify that you are Donnie's human girlfriend by choice.

"Are we talking about the same Donnie right now?"

"I'm right here!"

They are all too confused to say that they approve.

"How did Donnie pull you?"

You try not to laugh as you explained how you met him.

"What do you mean you met him at a waste disposal???"

Trust that they are secretly making notes to compare later because they have no faith in Donnie boy at all.

After all the commotion Master Splinter had entered. And Donnie was quick to introduce you to him. Donnie is basically bouncing on his feet.

"Hello sensei! This is my lovely girlfriend Y/n. Y/n this is my father I was talking about."

Splinter mumbles a simple greeting and bow his head while you copy his actions showing respect for him. Splinter is a man that sees to believe so he doesn't really say anything remarkable or worth noted on your first meeting. More or less that he hopes Donnie is treating you right. But after a while of getting to know you he likes you.

"She's a good one, son. Treat her well."

"There's no doubt in my mind that I won't sensei."

The turtles are okay with you and so is Splinter. They love when you bring pizza around though for them.

"You sure you're here against your will?"

"Mikey!!"

That's it lovelies. That's my new nickname for you guys hope you like it

I loved this it was so cutesy

BAI ;*

What about cuddling with the three brothers of your choice when its raining outside, something Fluffy. Maybe after a very tiring day of fighting crime, they just want to relax and cuddle with you.

Pairings -> Raphael/Raph, Donatello/Donnie, Michelangelo/Mikey x Reader

Warnings -> None

Note -> Just relaxing after a stressful day

Genre -> Fluff

RAPHAEL

Raph always has it tough, always doing patrols, fighting crime or any foot clans but at least he loves doing all that to protect the city of New York even though no-one knows who's the real hero's of this city

But that doesn't mean he can't have a break or a rest once in a while with his favourite person, his soulmate, his everything

You were the definition of angel, always making sure Raph was treated fairly and always got taken care of even if he doesn't think he needs to be taken care of by you

Tonight was a stressful night for Raph as he went on solo patrol while Leo was having a conversation with Master Splinter, Donnie gearing up his inventions or gadgets for his next time of patrol and Mikey just being a goofball doing his own thing of playing video games

You came around the lair around 1am to see your favourite turtle, but couldn't see him anywhere as you called out to Mikey who was in the living room on the couch as he clicked and tapped on his controller

"Yo Mikey, Where's Raph?" You questioned to the younger turtle who didn't dare to look away from the TV that his game was displayed on but replied saying "Oh Raph? He's on solo patrol, he'll be back in a couple of minutes"

"Thanks Mike" You thanked Mikey as you went to Raph's room to wait for him as he comes back from patrol, hoping he was okay

Now you were on your phone, laying on raph's big bed as you scrolled through social media

Now until you heard a grumble from a familiar voice, making you look up to the door to spot Raph stressful face

Placing your phone down as you smiled at him "Hey Raphie" You greeted him as he returned his greeting with a groan as he plopped onto his bed as his voice was muffled by the blacket

"I'm sorry Raph but I can't hear you love"

Raph then lifted his face up as he spoke more clearly "Can we cuddle?" He asked, not being ashamed of asking as he knew you wouldn't turn it into a weird thing

You smiled once more "Of course we can"

Raph then decided to take off all of his gear and his mask to get comfy as it looked like he was extremely exhausted from tonight's patrol

You gave out a little laugh as he nuzzled himself more into you as his face was in the crook of your head, taking in your scent as he relaxed his muscles

You weren't really that tired as you took your phone that was laying beside you as you turned the brightness down to not wake Raph up

Now it's been a couple of minutes as you became a little bit tired, seeing the time as it was now 2:43am so you decided it was time to got to sleep yourself

You could hear the rain pitter patter on top as it calmed everything down, making yourself comfortable as you fell asleep beside Raph

It was now time to unwind

DONATELLO

It was another exhausting day, saving the city from criminals and bad guys or either foot clans o staying the lair for hours on end doing God knows what

Inventions, gadgets, anything to help keep the city alive and safe and even his brother since he's the 'Tech guy' who only knows technology and inventions

You know the nerd stuff that his brother can't even bother helping him with even though he might not need it anyways even if he asked they wouldn't know a single thing at all about technology

Right now Donnie came back from patrol with his brother but went straight to his lair to continue his work on his stuff that were important for him to finish

You got a message from Mikey that he was worried for his older brother that he wasn't getting much sleep as he told you Donnie went straight to his lair after a long and stressful patrol so you decided to come down

It wasn't a long walk as you finally made it to the lair as you called out

"Angelcakes, Finally you'r where, I'm worried for Donnie" Mikey whined as he hugged you in a greeting he always does

"Don't worry Mikey, I'll get Donnie to sleep in no time" You promised as Mikey let you go as you walked over to the lab

It seemed like Donnie hasn't noticed your presence as he was super focused on his science stuff

You frowned as you saw how tired he looked as he looked through a magnifying glass so you decided to go up to him as you hugged him around his shoulder that made him jump slightly at the touch

"Oh It's just you, you scared me dove" Donnie nervously chuckled as he went back to looking through the glass that was set in front of him

"Mikey told me you guys came back from patrol, but I have one question though" You spoke making Donnie stop in his tracks to look up at him

You frowned once again "Why are you working so much in this lair without sleeping Donnie, Mikey and your brother are worried about you, I'm worried that you aren't getting enough sleep" You confessed

"I will I just need to finish this one last thing" Donnie said as he continued on his work that made you sigh

So you decided to stay which turned into 2 hours, you could hear the rain form outside on top as you sat near Donnie on the floor waiting for him to finish his work

"Donnie.. It's been 2 hours" You whined as you looked up at Donnie who slightly smile down at you "I'll be done soon"

You slightly pouted then thought of something that might get him to get into bed "What about we cuddle? Would that get you to bed?" You asked

This made Donnie stop as he bit his lip, seems like that worked as he stood up from his chair and picked you up from the floor as started ot walk to his bed

You were so smug about that the idea of wanting to cuddle actually worked as he placed you down on his bed as he took off his gear and his glasses, going straight into the blankets

You followed behind as you were now up close, your head beneath his chin as he churred slightly as he took in your scent

You could hear something thumping a little as you knew that was his tail

You were about to say something as you looked up to see Donnie was now asleep, long gone so you smiled as you kissed him on his cheek by leaning up

"Goodnight Donnie"

MICHELANGELO

Mikey is a cuddle bug, but he always asks first before cuddling you to death

But this is a whole different situation where He came back from patrol with his brothers, seeing him stomp off to his room, looking all pissed

You wondered what happened until you heard arguing form the two older brothers of the four, you knew the fight alot, like all the time because that's what brothers do

They fight but you hoped that nothing happened to Mikey though since he's always so cheerful and excited to see you but maybe he was too focused on getting away from his brother constant fighting

Today was the day you were going to hang out with Mikey as you made your way to the lair

Mikey texted you earlier that he was on patrol so he requested you to wait for him in the lair and maybe having a orange crush or two if you wanted to

Thats when you were waiting on the couch as you played a video game, waiting for the brother to come back from their night patrol to make sure everything was okay in the city

That was until you heard voice coming from the left side as you looked back to see Mikey stomping away to his room and his brother behind

Leo and Raph were arguing again and Donnie going to the lab to lock himself in there for who knows how long

You instantly paused the game that you were playing as you went to question the two brother on what happened but they didn't say anything and continued arguing

"You always tell everyone what to do huh Leo, this patrol was shit because of your leadership!" Raph yelled

"Oh so you're saying it was because of me!? What about sticking together when told to"

"That's no the case!"

As the arguing continued you decided to go check on Mikey as you stood up from the couch, walking away from the loud voices as you went inf ront of Mikey's room as you knocked to let him know it was you

Hearing a muffled "Come in" You went inside as you shut the door behind you as you leaned on it, looking at Mikey was laying on his bed with his face covered by the blankets

You sighed as you spoke up "Mikey.. You okay?" You asked and that made Mikey yelled out

"They always do this everytime!" You decided it was best for him to let it all out as you walked to his bed, climbing on the bed as you crawled your way to him

"They're brother Mike, brothers always seem to argue on the littlest things, but they still love each other even though they argue"

"But I just want them to stop.." He sighed as he laid on his side as you slid down to laid on your side facing him

Reaching up your hand to stroke his cheek as you thought of something "How about we forget about this and we just cuddle, you seem exhausted" You told him

Mikey nodded as he wrapped his arms around to move you closer to him as he nuzzled into your shoulder, churring sounds coming straight from him as you smiled

"Thanks Sweets" Mikey mumbled as he seem to drift off to sleep, making you think that he was actually exhausted from all the things that happened tonight

You decided to stay up a bit until the voice outside of his room died down, which it did finally

Now all you could hear was the soft breathing from your favourite turtle beside you and the rain from outside, it was calming

You decided it was time for you to go to sleep as well, so you shut your eyes and got comfortable as you held MIkey's hand

Now it was time to relax

Rise Characterizations

Last month I did an in-depth re-watch of rottmnt s1 to take some notes on writing the characters of rise from their perspective and such. Figured I'd share what I found, but I'm also posting this bc my docs have a nasty habit of blipping out of existence.

We'll start with Raph bc he's the oldest of course, but I'll post the others sep. bc this is gonna get long!!

Raph Character Notes

Language Habits:

Catchphrases: "like a boss", "smash"

Verbalizes his attacks such as "smash", "knuckle sandwich", "power smash jitsu", "tonfa power jitsu", "mystic punch jitsu"

Uses older song titles for surprised exclamations or in place of cursing, most notably "jumping jack flash!"

Uses aave/bae, For example: 'em instead of them, 'ey instead of they, 'cause instead of because, forgoes the g in ing words (going becomes goin')

Uses less and less grammar the more he's stressed, and his voice will come to a higher pitch

Will speak in a softer tone to his little brothers if he's concerned about hurting their feelings. Aka babying them

Mixes up both metaphors and idioms. Would be one to say how the turn tables unironically

Does say "hero" a lot, lost count, especially in phrases like "hero town"

Refers to his brothers as "boys" or "fellas"

Refers to Splinter as "pop(s)" most often

Refers to strangers he's directly talking to as "bubs" or "hoss"

Personality:

Protective of his family

Plays up the hero act/has a strong sense of duty and justice

Impatient, rushes in without a plan (pre-movie), doesn't finish books until the end, falls asleep during "boring movies"

Oblivious, doesn't read into things beyond surface level. Struggles with empathy when something is beyond his understanding, but is still very emotional

Center of responsibility for his brothers, but also has a reckless sense of fun. As long as it's him doing the stupid unsafe thing it's fine

Carries the weight, in a literal sense he piggy backs his brothers, but will also use his body as a shield from danger. Unfortunately this also means he takes his brothers a little less seriously (Mikey the most common victim), and will try and either protect them from everything or as an oldest sibling everything has go "his way"

Doesn't do well in solitude. Needs to be looking after people to feel functional, and needs to be around people to feel safe

Clumsy, "takes horrible pictures", isn't very good at hiding, he's a big guy so it probably took a lot of time to find balance

A sweet guy who still won't shy from making fun of his family. Leo tends to be the brunt of his teasing since he is the most annoying, but he will also poke Donnie on his dramatics

Likes cute things!!! Has a teddy bear collection and loves animals. It's so cool how this isn't played off as a joke and he's still just as masculine for liking pink and cutesy stuff

Likes fighting!!! Gets a lot of energy out defeating bad guys (where he directs his anger towards), the one who is shown to train the most, and also weight lifts in his spare time

Doesn't do well under pressure, here the anger comes out the most. He gets stressed when it's all on him, especially since he tends to mess up the most in these moments

Miscellaneous:

Second to unlock mystic powers

Nicknames/codenames: "raph-a-doodle" by leo, "red rover" by april, "red king" by donnie

Teddy bear names: Doctor Huggenstein, Captain Snuggles, Cheech

Stinks: fear stink, amazement stink, sneaking up on people stink, victory stink

Seems to be less afraid of rabbits and more afraid of puppets

Went on his first solo mission at 13

Cannot lift a bus, at age 15

Thought about discussing fighting style, but I'm not as familiar with that concept and I've seen a couple posts dissecting such topic. So we'll end here for now. Hope this was helpful!!! I'll post the rest of the boys later and link here

Leo is up!!

Donnie is up!!

Mikey is up!!

Splinter is up!!

April is up!!

Cassandra is up!!

Baron Draxum is up!!

Sometimes when I'm bored or need cheering up, I just think about DDMG but Hamato Yoshi is also there. Like Splinter is doing his thing, and then there's Yoshi, who remembers everything Splinter's forgotten, giving running commentary on everything that's happening. No one can see Yoshi, Splinter included, so it's kinda like Yoshi is haunting everyone but no one knows he's there.

I think it's safe to say that some of Splinter's choices would have Yoshi screaming his head off like "What are you thinking!? No! Stop doing that! Spit that out! Spit that out our mouth right now! Oh my... it is a good thing we do not have a stomach anymore." or "There is something deeply wrong with you, and I am not convinced it started after I died."

Still absolutely loves Mikey. Like that's his sweet baby boy he can't actually interact with but will commit crimes if anyone hurts.

Also doesn't trust the forest deer. It creeps him out.

I’d love to see more of the Emotional Marks AU. I want to see the reveal and the Bats having the realization that just because they’re doing better /now/, it doesn’t fix the damage they did before. And that they can’t force things to heal. Healing takes time.

Post being mentioned is here

What I'm curious about is if it's a human only thing or if others (like Kyrptonians, Martians, Atlanteans, etc.) also get marks.

Anyways, here's some more stuff I thought of. As always, take as little or as much as you'd like of it ^^

Tim never takes off the object hiding his marks, even for himself. It's part habit and part desperation to never see how much his loved ones have actually hurt him.

He's unique in that he isn't sure where most of his marks come from. People usually see the marks within 24 hours of their appearance. Tim has gone years between seeing his own marked skin.

As I've stated before, the object works like glamor. Therefore, those with enough magic power would be able to see past it. This is part of why Tim wanted pants for the Robin uniform (any magicians working with Robin would see the moment they saw any of Tim's bare skin). Tim is very lucky the marks on his face only appeared a bit before he became Red Robin (and part of his reason for the cowl).

Marks typically stay away from the face. They only appear there if symbolically significant or if the marks are running out of space elsewhere on the body. Bart and Kon dying really did a number on Tim even though it wasn't their fault.

YJ and Dick have helped soothe some of the marks left behind by the Drakes (and Bruce too if you want good dad Bruce). Quite a bit have even fully disappeared due to them.

Tim still collected them like Halloween candy, though.

Major marks and their placement [though feel free to offer different ideas]:

Bruce calling Tim "Jason" - x on the back of neck

16th birthday - Major gash on right temple hidden by hair

Janet dying - splintering cracks along hand (bigger version of the one Janet fakes)

Jack coma then death - line in left calf then up to mid back of thigh

Bart dying - right side from under armpit to end of ribs gash

Kon dying - giant oval over sternum

Jason's TT attack - left foot/ankle cracks

Damian's attacks - stomach area

Losing Robin - largest slash diagonal across back (left shoulder to right hip)

There's more marks, but the ones on his face are caused by people not believing in him [this is not a "they should have" argument. It would have hurt regardless of what they should have done]

Hmm... So, the reveal? I'm thinking a magician. This would be after Tim switches back to just a mask and no cowl. His face marks would be on display for magicians but no one else. He, wrongly, assumed he'd be fine.

He's playing nice with the Bats at this point, even if he doesn't fully trust them. He loves them and wants to keep the peace. He'd never voluntarily show them his marks or tell them about it.

The Bats are being nicer under the idea that their assumptions about markless were incorrect. It weirds Tim out and usually has him ghosting them for a few days if they try to initiate feeling conversations with him. He kind of wishes they would just go back to normal.

It's a few months of this behavior before some magician makes a remark about Tim's facial marks. Something along the lines of, "You okay, Red? You're aware of how dangerous it is for marks to progress as far as the face, right?"

Cause what happens when there's no more room for marks? Drastic decrease in physical health. Could lead to death.

The Bats overhear and promptly freak the fuck out again.

Tim, who has been dealing with their bullshit for the last few months and doesn't want to deal with the confrontation, disappears. He's waiting for them to process their shit before returning [he loves them but does not want to be caught in that fucking whirlwind. Bats notoriously do not handle emotions well]

How does the 2003 turtles react to crushes - part 1

Just a little thing cuz I miss writing, i miss tmnt and I haven’t got the time to do a full one shot or mashup in MONTHS 😔, I’m still on season 1-2 so if anything is a bit too ooc, I apologize! I love reading about crushes, first kisses, first loves, so this is for my puppy love stage lovers out there!! p.s: there's a poll for the next turtle by the end of the headcanon, make sure to vote your favorite! <3

(English is not my first language and I have dyslexia, I try to check everything before posting but sometimes grammar mistakes still happen, I apologize in advance if you find one!)

Leo

That’s some deeply repressed, effortless devotion energy right there, Leo is a pro at pretending that everything is fine, keeping it cool, but on the inside? so freaking nervous it’s not even funny

it's almost creepy how quiet he suddenly gets near you on your first visits, he acts in such a secluded but... odd way that everyone know something is up with him, but no one really knows what.

His younger brothers are all 🤨 over how he’s acting, at first, they noticed tiny shifts in his behaviors, they weren’t big enough to raise a red flag of such change, but when Leo shows how inpatient and careless he has become in training or meditating, then they KNOW something was really off . he has been careless for the silliest things as well, breaking the toaster more than once a week, forgetting to nag them about the open toothpaste, stuff he usually wouldn't miss it, but suddenly he doesn't mind it anymore.

None of them have the guts to ask him (Raph and Mikey might tease here and there, but you know, it’s Raph and Mikey) Don might find himself studying his brother from time to time, interested to why his older brother is being way more introspective than before, he wonders if maybe he’s going through a natural turtle process of some sort April is the only one who truly leaves him be, but as your visits become more frequent, it all clicks when you randomly stop by to deliver some groceries by Master Splinter request.

The pure lovesick look he glances at you when you first enter... you caught him completely off guard as he was leaving the dojo with Master Splinter, his dementor shifted back rapidly to stoic, but April noticed it, her eyes widened slightly as it all made sense, softening right after. Leo helps you with the groceries with agility, as Master Splinter excuses himself after he thanks you, he even dares to make small talk after an extremely long and awkward moment of silence (which he researched his possible lines in his head several times, made up several scenarios in which topic it could lead into, I might add) We have seen how Leo reacts to Usagi in the series (he has a fat crush on each other and I’m right) so you know even if he is indeed nervous, Leo is so dedicated to your well-being, attentive to your needs and inputs to missions or even movie debates, it’s heartwarming to see how inclusive he can be of you. He notices everything – Not in an obvious way, or a loud way, but in a way that means you’ll never have to ask him twice about something important to you. You mention offhand that you like a certain type of tea? He remembers. You’re shivering? He’s already handing you his jacket before you can say a word. The exact moment you get tired even before you admit it.

One day at training after sparring, you absentmindedly rubbed your wrist. You didn’t say anything, didn’t complain at the pain you might have felt, but later that night, you find a perfectly wrapped bandage roll left on top of your bag. No note. No explanation. You glance at Leo, and he’s just calmly cleaning his takana, pretending like he has no idea what you’re looking at. He’s not the type to shower you with words, but his actions speak volumes. He makes sure you always walk on the safe path while coming back from a mission or scorting you back home, he picks whatever condiment out of your food because he remembers you don’t like them. He’ll “coincidentally” be around when you need help, even if he acts like it’s no big deal. He's gentle, kind, and a true gentleman, he makes sure his presence is there. He effortlessly puts so much thought into you, it’s just how his mind works.

He disliked how nervous he first got around you, but after a while, he didn’t even realize how he had grown used to thinking about you. He grabs an extra bottle of water without thinking because you might be thirsty later. His brothers joke that he’s got favorites, and he just denies it, but deep down? Yeah. It’s you. Eventually, he has to talk to someone, and he chooses to confide in April about… well, everything? regarding feelings, about how to be sure, what does it feel like to love someone and how should he react to it? wait, did he say love? How can he stop his hands from getting so sweaty? this is ridiculous, should he feel anxious and at ease around you all at the same time? From time to time, he tells himself he doesn’t like you like that, that he’s just looking out for you because you’re part of the team, part of the family. that's just him being a leader, That’s all it is.

his train of thought is broken as he hears Mikey chuckle “Dude, you’ve got it bad.”

Leo stiffens, cleaning his throat as he turns he page of his book a bit too slow “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Oh, you SO do.” Mikey grins. “The ‘eyes-follow-them-every-time-they-leave-the-room’ thing? The ‘silent-knight-hovering’ thing? classic move, real smooth.”

Leo exhales through his nose, forcing himself to focus on back his book. It’s not like that. It can’t be. "Maybe you should tell them, who knows, they might be looking back right at ya" Mikey winks at him, biting on this apple as he sits on the couch, turning on the tv. Maybe he was looking at you too long, maybe he wasn't as subtle as he thought he was, or his brothers just, unfortunately, know him too well and finally caught up. He prided himself and his control, his calm exterior, carefully managed. but maybe you slip through the cracks. He can't help but to continue notice how eyes shine brighter when you smile, remembering every little thing about you, doing things that only you get to see. Deep down, he knows. He just doesn’t know what to do with it yet.

I'm bored before bed time. Here's some more dumb hcs I have

Random Bayverse headcanons

- Raph isn't the only crafty one. All four of them do crafty shit:

- Raph both knits and crochet. + whittling (widdling?? Idk English isn't my first language :( )

- Mikey can dye fabric and sometimes sew

- Leo is actually super good at sewing and leather workings (he made the straps he wears in oots himself<3 v proud boy).

- Donnie does well, mostly metal work. He does know how to do a bit of everything EXCEPT knitting and crochet, dude yeeted it straight across the lair and pouted on the couch with his arms crossed when Raph tried to teach him how (don't tell him I told you guys ssshhh)

- While Leo is not under any circumstances allowed to COOK, he IS allowed to prepp stuff. Like cut veggies, it's the one thing he's allowed to do.

- Donnie is known to drink ranch out the bottle. Can someone stop him please

- Splinter is known to "just happen to be there" whenever it's time to make dinner. In reality he's just making sure his sons don't hurt themselves. "Dad, you don't have to be here." / "my son, did you not know most accidents happen in the kitchen?"

- Leo is just as dude bro as Mikey is. April HAS CAUGHT HIM openly scratch his balls on the couch more time than she wants to.

- He doesn't care. He's off the clock. Not "working" anymore, he doesn't need to be prim and proper leader anymore.

- Every spring, like clock work, when their seasons start Leo and Raph has a yearly brawl. Alpha shit, you know? It's full on wrestling and it CAN get really violent.

- Raph broke Leo's arm once during one of those brawls.

- It's also how Raph got the scar over his lips after a particularly hard strike by Leo's elbow that split his lips.
