Rise TMNT Head canon: Neither of the Disaster Twins is officially the older one.
When they were little, Donnie and Leo would fight about who was older endlessly, both refusing to be the younger twin, so Splinter eventually gave up and had them do a straw-pull.
Every birthday they'd pull straws randomly and whoever snagged the longest straw got to be the older one for the next year. The issue though is that it became obvious early on that Donnie and Leo were both dirty dirty cheaters. Putting rules in place only intensified the problem as it became a game of finding the best loopholes.
The straw-pull evolved into a complex maze of manipulation, lies, and trickery to the point that the brothers started laying roots for their respective schemes months in advance.
Now, just before cake is served, all the partygoers gather around for an intense showoff of Leo's infallible strategic and psychological plays verses Donnie's relentless genius in probability theory and game mechanic exploits.
Bets are made on who will outwit the other, over the top drama and theatrics ensue, and every year at least three new rules are added into the rule book.

Stuck (disaster twins rottmnt)
Hello!!! This is another turtle tot disaster twins fic!!! Enjoy! For some context I’d say they’re around 9-10 years old here.
Warnings: None, tickling
Summery: Donnie gets stuck. Leo comes to help. Chaos ensues.
Donnie was in a bit of a predicament. The young soft shell was working on something in his lab. Unfortunately, he ended up falling and getting tangled in wires. He was only suspended about an inch from the ground luckily, but the real problem was that he was stuck and couldn’t escape. What was a turtle to do?
He wanted to call for help. But who? Splinter had told them he was busy with something important and warned them that he was not to be bothered. Raph and Mikey had said earlier that they were gonna hang out in the arcade room Donnie had built for them, so there wasn’t much chance of hearing him from there. That left Leo.
Oh boy.
Leo was in his room reading his comics. Perfect shout hearing distance, as it was closer to his lab.
He sighed. He guessed he had no choice. Leo was never going to let him live this down. Finally, but begrudgingly, he accepted defeat.
“LEO! LEO I NEED SOME HELP HERE!” Donnie yelled in his high pitched yelling voice.
A moment later, Leo was in the doorway.
They looked at one another for what seemed like forever, and then Leo burst out laughing.
“Yeah, yeah!” Donnie spat out in annoyance, trying to fight the flush of embarrassment threatening to appear on his face. “Laugh it up!”
“Ohohomigohosh whahat hapehend???” Leo managed through his laughter, holding on to the door to steady himself with one hand and clutching at his plastron with the other.
“Well… I kinda fell… and now I’m stuck…” Donnie explained into a mumble, feeling slowly more and more embarrassed. This made Leo laugh harder.
“Hohold ohohon…” he said, trying to calm himself down, “I need a picture…”
“WHAT!? LEO!!!” Donnie protested angrily.
Leo had left before Donnie could say anything else, and soon, Leo had come back and begun snapping pictures with his phone (Donnie had recently made phones for them).
“I’m gonna cherish these…” Leo grinned when he finished.
“Leo!! Enough! Would you help me already!!!???” Donnie protested again, attempting and failing to escape on his own.
“Fine, fine…” Leo gave in, taking pity on his twin.
He began trying to pull Donnie down, but he was really tangled in. “Man you really got yourself stuck in here…” Leo grunted, trying to pull. He reached for a wire near Donnie’s underarm, Leo accidentally brushed against his armpit while trying to pull it away.
Even if he was still wearing his purple hoodie, Donnie didn’t expect the sudden electric shock jolt through the area of his hoodie, and he had no time to suppress his giggle.
Leo paused at the sound. He couldn’t remember the last time he had heard his usually more quieter and reserved brother laugh like that. He narrowed his eyes and a smirk creeped on his face.
“What was that Donnie?” He teased, poking a finger into the exposed armpit through his brothers purple hoodie. “Is someone ticklish?”
“L-leo! Don’t you dare!” Donnie threatened, now able to suppress the next giggle as he was able to anticipate the action. He struggled and squirmed in place, trying to escape.
“Oh yeah, tough guy? And what are you gonna do about it. Huh?” Leo cooed, wiggling his three small dum dum fingers in Donnie’s face.
Before Donnie could answer, Leo slipped his hand under his hoodie, and began scratching at the baby soft skin of his underarms (well, as soft as turtle skin could be anyway).
Donnie couldn’t laugh. Not now. Not in this position. Not with Leo witnessing it. Leo would absolutely not ever let him live this down now.
But alas, the young soft shell was too ticklish for his own good.
“GAHAHA LEHEHOHOHO!!!!” Donnie squealed through his laughter. It wasn’t really a laugh though. It was more like super loud and high pitched giggles.
“This is priceless.” Leo teased. “The stoic, smart, too grumpy to have fun Donatello, is a ticklish little baby.”
“SHUHUT UHUP EHEVEHRY OHOHONE IHIS!” Donnie argued.
Leo then decided to change it up and went for squeezing at his upper thigh. That’s when Donnie lost it, exploding into hysterical cackles. At this point he couldn’t form another coherent sentence.
“Bad spot?” Leo smirked. He appreciated how his twins face looked. For once, it seemed lively and happy. Tears had begun forming in his eyes. His laughter seemed to be the only sound filling most of the room.
Soon Leo realized he should probably stop. He didn’t want to accidentally kill his own brother.
Donnie fell limp in the tangle of wires. His breathing was heavy and fast, trying to catch his breath.
“You ok Donnie?” Leo asked nervously . He suddenly realized he might’ve gone a bit overboard.
Donnie nodded slowly, not speaking. Leo then tried again at untangling him, making sure to not accidentally tickle him again.
Soon he was finally free. He fell to the ground and collapsed. “Donnie!” Leo rushed to make sure he was ok. But when he saw that his purple branded twin had fallen asleep, his eyes softened and a fond smile grew on his face. He picked him up bridal style and took him to his bed. Then Leo climbed into the bed and laid next to him. The two of them soon fell asleep, taking a nice long afternoon nap.
Leo was sure Donnie would be upset with him when they woke up. But he didn’t care. Now he just wanted to snuggle peacefully with his twin.
