My favorite way to write ROTTMNT Leo is him being protective of his brothers.

Especially when it comes to Donnie and Mikey. Essentially him being protective of his younger siblings.

And him being protective of Raph because I see Leo and Raph as the older brothers.

A House Party. What could go wrong?

Summary

Donnie wasn’t necessarily against parties. It would have been nice to have a head-up. But he went along with the party that Leo’s new friend invited them to. The softshell just needed to stick to the background, and everything would be okay. However, someone else seemed to notice him.

Overall content warning: This fic revolves around sexual assault. Mainly in chapters 3 and 4.

Chapter 1: Getting to the House

Tw’s for first chapter 1: panic attack. And mention of alcohol.

[catparent94]

This is for an rottmnt high school au where the brothers are still mutants. But they have gone to human school forever.

The main name I have for this au is School with mutants and humans.

The name might change later.

I will elaborate on the brothers roles in the Au later. But right now I am going to be talking about my version of Timothy.

For my version of Timothy, he starts going where the brothers go to high school in the junior year or eleventh grade in the United States of America.

I like the idea that he is both a genius but also really good at sports. But especially basketball. I like to imagine him as a love sick puppy.

Donnie and Timothy meet either in the cafeteria, when Timothy sees Donnie sitting alone. Or in an engineering class.

There would be Timatello in this fic.

Draxum!Shredder Fic

This is my First Draxum!Shredder fic. This one has some revisions.

Shredder!Draxum Nightmare

Summary: After the events of Shredder. And Draxum as the Shredder… Draxum!Shredder. Donnie has nightmares. But thankfully he has someone who can help him out. A particular slider comes to mind.

[catparent94]

For ROTTMNT, my headcanon is that:

Donnie and Mikey are each others favorite.

Leo’s favorite is Donnie.

And Raph’s favorite is Mikey.

I’m reblogging this because a a few chapter fic related this analysis might come out by the end of the month.

Draxum Redemption Arc and Relating it to Donnie’s Stadium Scene 

I have been rewatching episodes of ROTTMNT.  

I like Draxum’s redemption arc as it is in the finale. But I just wish that the writers had the time for more episodes to address it. They already have episodes where Mikey, Draxum, Raph, and Splinter talk to each other, which helps to establish his redemption arc. Though, the thing that I think would have helped to establish the redemption arc even further was if there was an episode where just Donnie, Leo, and Draxum were together as the main focus. This is mainly because Leo and Donnie both went through traumas related to Draxum that I think should have been addressed.   

I can’t really say more than everyone else has said about Draxum dropping Leo from a roof. Yeah, maybe that really should have been addressed in the show.  

So, I am going to be talking about Donnie and his traumas related to Draxum. Specifically, I want to address how Donnie got severely hurt by Draxum when Draxum was turned into Shredder!Draxum. And the traumas related to that.  

To do this properly, I will be analyzing the episodes 

 End Game, specifically for the stadium scene to show how Shredder!Draxum severely hurt Donnie. 

Then the beginning of Many Unhappy Returns in the stadium to show how Donnie was really scared of being hurt by Shredder!Demon 

Analysis is below

End Game 

So, obviously, with this episode, everyone got extremely hurt with Draxum being the Shredder. 

But Donnie was hurt the worst by Shredder!Draxum than the rest of his family. One of my reasons is I don’t think his brothers were entangled in the squishy vines like he was. Here are the 3 pictures I am referring to. Time stamps for these are 16:55- 17:00.  

Donnie’s whole body was encased by the vines, and the brothers had to try to save him. Obviously, it did not work, but still. In images one and three, Donnie looks like he is about to throw up.  

Like that had to be sensory hell for Donnie. And he already has sensory issues naturally. 

------------------------------------------------------

Then, at 18:03, Donnie was smashed down onto the ground by Shredder!Draxum’s now metal instead of squishy vines. He already looked like he had some kind of black eye with quite a few scratches. 

------------------------------------------------------

But Donnie still continued to fight and was used as a distraction. Or, as Donnie said, “I will keep them recklessly busy.” He did this with his tech bo, and he is pretty brave.  

Context: While Donnie was being used as a distraction, Raph smashed the seats in the stadium with his tonfas to cause the baseballs, seats, and any other materials to go into the air. Then, Mikey used his kusari-fundo to cut the seats, baseballs, and any other materials into tiny pieces. Finally, Leo used his sword to make multiple portals to aim the material at Shredder!Draxum.  

------------------------------------------------------

In addition, because Donnie was used as the “reckless distraction,” he got pretty hurt while the other brothers were preparing all the materials they had in the stadium to throw at Shredder!Draxum. The next four pictures below show this during this part of the fight. 

Donnie was trying his best to fight Shredder!Draxum with his tech bo, which he did somewhat efficiently. But the first image was the point where I could tell Donnie in his head was thinking, “This is scary.”  

Then, in the second image, he was smashed to the ground by the squishy vines.  

In image three, the squishy vines hit him in the back and shell, which looked very painful.  

Finally, the fourth image shows that Donnie fought Shredder!Draxum until Leo comes in with his portals from multiple different directions, and Donnie looked more hurt compared to Leo. Only then does Donnie move away so the portals’ materials can all aim at Shredder!Draxum.  

------------------------------------------------------

The next picture below shows how hurt Donnie got in the baseball stadium after he was no longer being used as a distraction and got out of the way. It really shows how hurt Donnie got compared to his brothers. For instance, he had a lot of bruises, and his face was swollen, but his brothers did not have any injuries like that.   

Also, this kind of goes with a previous theory I have that they are all self-sacrificial that will be addressed at a later date.   

------------------------------------------------------

The next few pictures emphasize that Donnie was the most severely hurt in this episode compared to his brothers even further.  

The first photo shows that Donnie’s hand and wrist were hanging over Leo’s arm, so he is not able to high-five his brothers. What is important to mention is that April was the one who had to put Donnie’s hand and wrist on Leo’s arm for the high-five. 

Then, the next two pictures are my biggest pieces of evidence that Donnie got severely hurt in this episode compared to his brothers. Specifically, because he was the only one who could not stand on his own. In the second photo, April and Mikey had to help Donnie stand up. This is when they thought they defeated Shredder!Draxum. And in the third image, April still needed to help Donnie stand up. That was the image just before the reveal of the full Shredder!Demon. 

Ending conclusion 

Take into account this all happened with just Shredder!Draxum. So, Donnie would have a bad feeling about Draxum being near him or anyone in his family at all. Also, I think Donnie would not be so welcoming to letting Draxum into the family. At least not without a conversation, and a deep one at that.  

I really think that Draxum should have had an episode with just Donnie and Leo because of the dropping Leo from a roof and because of when Draxum was Shredder!Draxum in End Game caused Donnie to be severely hurt. 

Also, I am headcanoning that Donnie’s sensory issues had increased after this event.  

Many Unhappy Reminders episode line from Donnie I think that is important for extra notes I couldn’t figure out where else to put this is 

“I want to say I feel prepared, but my chattering teeth won’t let me.”  

Now, all I can think about was the fact that he was not able to stand by himself in a few scenes prior while the other brothers were able to walk.  

This show really liked hurting Donnie, and I can tell. It does help me create great angst material. And I am adding more angst related to Shredder!Draxum in my fics. 

[catparent94]

I have this headcanon that when Donnie feels uncomfortable with his shell exposed but can’t where his battleshell.

He will put on his hoodie as a kind of battleshell without it actually being one. That way, he feels safe.

[catparent94]

Something about ROTTMNT Donnie and Mikey I find interesting.

Is how Mikey is very emotional/sensitive and understands emotions.

While Donnie is either the second or first most emotional/sensitive. But doesn’t understand his own emotions or others.

I think Donnie would try to help people during a emotional crisis. But not know how to do it.

My two favorite characters being very similar yet not at the same time.

[catparent94]

For ROTTMNT,

I want to write a fic where Donnie and Mikey are both co-dependent on each other.

By the way, are there any ROTTMNT fanfics recommendations that revolve around that concept?

I also want to write a fic where Donnie and Mikey are twins, where they are both 13. Mainly because I think they embody the most chaotic younger brother energy.

Leo and Raph are about the same ages as in canon.

[catparent94]

For ROTTMNT to me.

Donnie feels like he is just chaos, through and through. Even when he is not trying to bicker, he is just chaos. Because he is him.

Though I see Donnie as a people pleasure most of the time.

While Leo’s bickering can cause chaos.

I do see Leo as less chaotic even though I think he is less of a people pleasure compared to Donnie.

But they both become kind of self destructive when they deal with their insecurities.

Most of the time, I think Mikey is more chaotic than Leo.

[catparent94]

This is another ROTTMNT fic idea I think would be funny.

Donnie is trying to hook Leo up with a guy. And is like "this guy would totally be nice for Leo."

Meanwhile Leo is like "Dude. I'm aromantic."

The plot twist is that this guy is into Donnie. Donnie is going to go out with this guy because he does like him back. But he is really confused about how he got himself into this situation.

Oblivious hopeless romantic Donatello propaganda I guess.

[catparent94]

I have this idea for a writing thing that I have started that I may or may not finish. I might delete this if I ever finish it.

But essentially it is Christmas. Donnie gave them all there gifts.

But Donnie has extra gifts for them. For Raph, it is a giant bear with a football helmet. For Mikey, Donnie was able to get him tickets to take dance lessons at a high up yokai dancing school in the Hidden City.

Then, there is Leo's gift. It is a basketball signed by Tim Dunkman. Leo is all happy about the gift, and all.

Until he realized "Hey Donnie, how did you get him to sign it? That guy hates us."

Cue Donnie saying "Don't worry about it."

Both Raph and Leo have that worried expression/face that Raph makes in Clothes Don't Make the Turtle Episode.

Neither them are going to question it.

While Mikey doesn't care at all.

Make up your ending for how you think he got it.

[catparent94]

I am still confused how this happened. For an rottmnt fic.

Something that was supposed to be a one to two shot. Ends up being 8 chapters long. And I am even done editing so it might be more.

The plot took over I guess.

[catparent94]

Local genius bases his worth on how much use he has to his team, more at 7

[catparent94]

For my version of rottmnt, the brothers have tails.

Donnie and Mikey have short tails.

Leo’s tail goes about to his knees.

And Raph’s tail drags behind him like an alligator.

[catparent94]

For ROTTMNT Donnie and Raph. I like to imagine they practice breathing exercises together. Mainly because I think they have bad anxiety.
