Yandere Donnie: Mushy Medical Malpractice

^ | | That's Donnie when he sees u lmao (Leo's upset because Donnie's gonna rant about how amazing u are to him for the next 4 hours) After writing that last yandere thingie, I got wonderin: How did cuddling you start as a stim for Donnie? (Go read the first one hint hint) So using prompt 4 from animeyanderelove's list ( “Gosh, you smell so good when we cuddle like this!”) I made this! Heavy Jason Dean vibes, he needs u way too much. I do not condone any of this irl ya freaks. Tw: Nonconsensual Touching, Yandere Behavior, Generally stalkerish vibes

God damn it.

"Come on, breathe."

Slow, deep breaths. Over and over again.

But how could you breathe when you felt like all your oxygen was being burned away by the flames in your skin?

How could you breathe when you were in agony like this?

How did you even get here?

It started when you woke up in the middle of the night, and once again, your entire body ached like never before.

Yesterday Donnie finally let you out of the sewers after you got better. You GOT better. You were supposed to be getting better. So why did it keep coming back!? Why did it only get worse whenever you left?

God really hated you, huh? You could only find peace when at Donnie's care. You couldn't thank him enough for everything he had done for you.

Either way, when you awoke your body was engulfed in what you thought to be hives. You were so itchy and hot, and it felt like a million needles were pricking your skin. Even your clothes felt hot to the touch, burning you like fire.

You tried to take a shower to calm it down, hoping you could stick it out until the morning, really not wanting to bother him in the middle of the night with this. He had done so much for you, it felt selfish to ask him for more. (Little did you know he was awake. haunted by your absence, and waiting for you)

But it only got worse. As you showered, you scratched mercilessly at your skin, scratching it raw until you bled. But you couldn't stop. It hurt so badly- Your chest, your thighs, your neck. It all burned.

By now, strands of your hair was breaking off, and if you were in there any longer you were worried clumps of your hair would begin falling out. You could barely even see by now, the blindness from your disease kicking in. You stepped out of the shower, and the light bombarded you. It felt like the sun, flashing colors vibrantly, burning your eyes, wrecking your retinas, even though you knew it was just the usual yellowish white color your lights usually were.

And the noise! The noise was unbearable. The ache in your body was nothing compared to the sound around you. The sound of the running water, the buzzing lights, it engulfed you. It drove you mad.

You were so paranoid too. Afraid for no reason. You couldn't shake the feeling that something was watching you struggle and shower and scream and sob.

By now you were falling to the ground, your throat closing up and your legs no longer able to support your weight. You knew you only had one choice, but you weren't even sure if you could do it before you began seizing. (another symptom of this "new disease" that plagued you, diagnosed courtesy of Donnie)

You reached for your phone, calling your best friend. You couldn't afford the medical bills, and Donnie had insisted that he was the only one who could provide you adequate care for this illness. After that point, everything was a blur. You weren't even sure if you were able to get any words out to him. But either way, he appeared to help you.

You couldn't remember any of it, him helping you dress yourself, sneaking you through the streets, taking you to the lab. You only came back to consciousness in Donnie's room, which is where you were now.

Deep, deep breaths.

"Come on, you can do this."

In and out.

You looked over to Donnie, teary eyed.

He was holding a needle, likely to inject you with something that would stop this torture.

You weren't afraid of needles. Not anymore. You couldn't be after you have had to be stabbed by them so many times to save your life.

Your eyes began watering again, and you covered you face with one of his pillows.

Why was this happening to you?

Donnie walked up to you, and sat down on the bed next to you, taking your arm and injecting it in.

God that felt good. You weren't sure if you were getting addicted to this stuff somehow. Is that even possible if you NEED to take the meds?

The itchiness and lightheadedness quickly evaporated from your skin. Well, most of it anyways. It was bearable now.

Your eyelids felt so heavy, and you were so, so tired.

"Just breathe."

"Everything will be okay."

You looked over to Donnie, wanting to thank him, but you could see how panicked he was. He was afraid, really, really afraid.

You grabbed his hand, rubbing his palm.

"Hey. I'm okay, Don-Don." You gently said. Your voice still hurt and felt scratchy, but you didn't know what else to say. You knew you needed to say something though.

He turned over to you could hear his breath hitching and him hyperventilating. His voice was strained and cracked.

"Why didn't you say anything earlier? Why'd you wait so long to call me?"

What were you supposed to say to that?

"Don-Don.. I-. I didn't want to burden yo-"

"You're never a burden to me."

You looked up to him. You had a splitting headache still, and you were so tired, but you still couldn't sleep. You could barely even move your legs. And you had been like this for so long. You had done nothing for him. How could you not be a burden?

You wanted to cry, how could he not hate you.

"Thanks Don-Don..."

Your voice was cracked and strained. He grabbed your hand, rubbing its palm softly with his left and wiping away his tears with his right.

"Never mind that, you need to get some rest."

You groaned.

"Don-Don, I can't just fall asleep like that, not matter how tired I am."

"I know, I know, I can't either! But you can usually get me to sleep easily, and I have trouble sleeping."

So how does he make you fall asleep?

What do you usually do for him?

Those always worked.

Lavender Incense, sleep meds, a million things came to mind.

Shell rubs.

That could work.

You don't have a shell, but a back rub might work just as well.

Silently, he moved over to you and began rubbing your back.

You giggled at first, it's amazing how you managed it despite the pain you were in.

"What are you doing-?"

"Giving you a shell rub."

"I don't have a shell?"

"I know- but I might as well try."

He continued rubbing your back, the pressure soothing the pain.

"... Is it working?"

You shoved your teary face into the mattress, mumbling a bunch of incoherent words, before finally settling at

"It works so well."

"Please don't stop."

| | | | | | |

Donnie looked down at you, watching as you struggled to stay asleep. The sleep meds he had put in that injection wasn't working as well as he'd hoped.

He looked up at your monitors. You were just asleep right? You weren't seizing? Why were you moving so much? Were you having nightmares?

Everything looked normal.

No lasting damage from the "incident."

But the guilt still consumed him.

It had been a couple of hours since he first got the call. About 2 since you got here and fell asleep, and he hadn't dared to stop rubbing your back.

1 hour, 37 minutes, and 52 second since you fell asleep. He'd been counting.

If you were having a nightmare, it'd be best to wake you.

He didn't mean to.

He'd had them before, and he knew they were horrible.

And he almost lived one today.

He gently tried to shake you awake.

It was just a one time screw up.

But to no avail.

He'd flown too close to the sun.

You were okay, right? He looked up to the monitors once again.

And now his wax wings were melting.

Everything was normal.

A one time screw up?

Heart rate was steady.

What was he thinking?

Blood pressure was average.

This was you he was talking about.

Blood sugar was perfectly fine.

Sweet, wonderous you.

He put his head to your chest, just to make sure you were breathing fine.

And you almost died today because he tried to keep you too close.

And he heard you breathing.

Your heartbeat.

And it made his heart throb.

He kept up the pressure on your back, soothing you in any way possible.

The sensory from it was nice, kneading your skin like that.

It was warm, soft, alive, mixed with the comforting texture of your hoodie.

His mind began to wander.

He didn't mean to do it.

Or at least for it to turn out that badly.

When you left, he couldn't stand the empty feeling that he got. Alone like that.

He just couldn't deal with it anymore. You NEEDED to stay. He needed you to stay.

But what could he do?

Restrain you? Threaten you? He could never do that to his best friend. You were a person after all.

But you were a person like him. You understood him in a way nobody else did.

Mikey, Raph, Leo, Splinter, April.

Nobody else could understand him, feel him as you did.

You were so similar, so close, that you and him started to feel like one.

One being, one person. So there was unending ache in his heart when you decided to leave.

But it wasn't your fault! You were perfect, you were a part of each other, you would never purposely hurt your other half!

You weren't trying to hurt him by leaving. You just didn't understand how much you needed each other.

But he still couldn't have you leave. It would rip him into parts.

You leaving him would be like ripping him in half. His other half can't just leave him like that!

And so he got an idea.

It started off innocent at first. Simple.

You were gonna go home, but he needed you. You couldn't leave. You guys were having so much fun!

Tippy-tappying your fingers on controllers, watching dumb-dumb horror movies and making fun of the dumb-dumb protagonists, or eating pizza and just chatting about everything and nothing.

So, why would you leave him? (he still couldn't understand why would would want to leave, even now.) He couldn't let that just- HAPPEN.

So he did something... questionable.

Mikey baked you something as a go-home gift, just some food.

He saw you were already snacking on it and while you weren't looking he MAY or may not have put something in it.

It was only supposed to make you feel really tired, and it only did that.

And so you decided to call it a night and just sleepover in the sewers.

His plan worked. He had a new tool at his disposal, one to make life a little more bearable, one that allowed him to stay by your side.

And he was going to abuse the hell out of it.

It only got worse and worse, with exhaustion meds turning into headaches into rashes into unimaginable pain.

He wasn't doing it to hurt you! In fact, he tried to stray away from the more gruesome symptoms. He always made sure you had a adequate quality of life. and he tried to only sicken you to the bare minimum that made you stay with him.

He did not like doing this to you, in fact he hated it. He hated seeing you so weak and miserable, and he hated the pain that consumed him as he watched you weep over it.

But he could also not stand how his heart ached from your absence, and he couldn't help but miss the way his heart sang whenever you were near!

He had to make a choice, and he made the one that was better for both of you in the long term.

He knew how much you loved being by his side too, and he knew you felt the same way. You were just in denial, unable to truly understand how much you needed each other. He wouldn't be surprised if these beliefs were linked to pressure from those wretched friends and family of yours. They always tried to pull you away from him, and pull him away from you.

But that's besides the point. By then, it was common for you to stay in the sewers for months on end just to let Donnie manage your worsening health.

And now, it was another one of those times.

2 weeks ago, you had been bedbound at Donnie's for about a month, unable to leave. And he had decided to have mercy on you, as he felt so cruel for this when you raved about your misery from this horrible illness that plagued you!

So, he lightened up on the meds that he was giving you. Just so you could get a little bit better, and just so his best friend would be even just a little bit happier.

Just so you two could talk easier, as your jaw ached whenever it moved. Just so you could game together easier, as you began losing feeling in your fingers. It was just to make his other half happier.

But you, you took that as healing! You jumped at the slightest opportunity of independence, unable to realize how much you needed each other!

He couldn't believe it.

You wanted to leave, only a month after you began staying living in the sewers!

Only a month!

He couldn't have that. There was no way you could LEAVE HIM!?

You ripped open his heart!

You can't just leave him to bleed!?

You were meant to be his!

He was meant to be yours!

You can't just split them apart!

No, no, no-

This wasn't the doing of you, was it?

It's those SHITTY uptoppers-

(You might aswell be turning him into draxum because he's REALLY starting to hate humans, aka "uptoppers". Get it- Cause they're on the surface? Above the sewers? "Up Top?")

They're dragging him away from you.

He's heard them say it, question your relationship-

"Oh y/n, why are you always WITH HIM!?"

"Oh Donnie-, it's strange how you're always together!"

But those INSOLENT fools- April, your friends, his family and yours-

They would never understand!

They could never understand what you two have!

Sure, he has some faults on his end, as his family has been playing a part in this- But he can convince them, he knows he can!

But yours? No, that's different.

They would never accept it.

And so, he had to take some.. drastic measures.

A couple of well placed sprinkles of some suspicious meds on your snacks-

And after that, you could go home all fine and dandy, only for when the morning comes- BOOM

Pain. You come running back to Donnie, and then you get your cure and he skillfully convinces you to stay longer with a report of you having "A permanent, debilitating illness that needs constant care and supervision by a high tech mutant expert who can administer you care any time it's requested."

Also, any germs carried by regular old humans could make the illness SO much worse, so you can't go up top to tell your family. He could do it for you. any germs carried by mutants, and possibly April, are a-okay though.

(He may have been overexaggerating a LOT, he would never hurt you that badly after all! It's actually just gonna be a bit of chronic fatigue and bouts of paralysis and blindness, maybe make you an ambulatory wheel chair user or make you lose a leg or arm. But that's not that bad when you have Donnie to provide you with the most high tech prosthetics and wheelchairs out there! Maybe some body braces and high tech glasses to help you with that blindness and paralysis-)

That way, you'll stay together.

That way, you'll never be split up.

But this? This was SO much worse than he planned.

What was he going to do? There may be no CURRENT after affects but what might happen in the future-

Then something happens, a movement, your body shifitng.

It brings him back to reality. It grounds him.

And he knows he has no reason to worry.

All of them wash away like how waves wash the ocean shore.

As long as you're together, you'll be okay.

He'll be okay.

Everything will be okay.

Donnie realizes that while he was having a mental breakdown, he stopped rubbing you.

Yet you are still sleeping soundly.

How? You were struggling to sleep just moments before? Is it the silence? Is it him?

Then he realizes. It's his body heat, isn't it?

You've always loved heated blankets.

So maybe this is just what you need.

He pulls up closer against you, his plastron to your back.

He puts his head in the crook of your neck.

God you're so warm-

And soft.

He could fall asleep right now, he would if he didn't have to monitor your health.

Then he sees it. You're laying on your arm.

That's not good, is it?

Doing that could cut off your bloods circulation to that arm, which could cause a whole BUNCH of problems.

He can't have that, could he?

But he also can't wake you up, you need to sleep.

He's gotta do this gently.

Slowly, Slowly he grabbed your arm-

God you were still so warm.

Warmer now. Softer. He didn't think that was even possible.

And you smelled so good while cuddling with him like this.

He pulled it out from under you, but he didn't take his hands off.

Slowly he ran his hand up and down your arm.

Pliant.

Flexible.

Textured.

There was so many words he could use to describe it.

Safe.

He felt safe. Safe in your touch.

He practically melted onto you as he ran his hands up and down your arm, eventually taking grasp of your other one.

Pulling up your sleeves, just to feel your skin.

He hated being touched, but this? This was different.

He hadn't realized how stressed he had been.

He hadn't realized how much he wanted, needed this.

He got lost in holding you, lost in your touch.

Moving farther down until he hit your thighs, his hands rubbing up and down on them.

Feeling the cloth of your pants, warmed by your skin.

Then your stomach and chest.

Feeling your stomach rolls and hip dips, your curves, and the fabric of your hoodie.

The fat on your chest and stomach.

If he was sane- If he was okay right now he would question all of this.

Why was he doing this?

Was this creepy?

Was he insane?

But right now?

He couldn't.

Fat, wet, tears welled up in his eyes and made it's way down his face, as he shoved his head even deeper into the crook of your neck.

He couldn't stop himself.

Stop himself from doing any of this. Stop himself from clinging onto you like you would disappear if he let go. Stop himself from melting like chocolate into your touch. Stop himself from wanting you, from missing you.

He almost lost you today.

Now?

He was never letting you go again.

This took me way too long to write, and this post is way too long too. When I was going to write this I imagined it a lot shorter. The touching/cuddling part was supposed to sound a lot more nonsexual and platonic then it came out as but now? Interpret it as platonic, romantics, however you'd like. Although I will say, non of the touches here were SA or anything. He was simply touching you. I hate how sexual that sounds, but I have no clue how else to put it. Kinda ironic how I'm posting this on the lords day, as this is one of the most unholy things I've written in a while. Side note, REQUEST ME THINGS. I'm dumb and my brains running out of ideas. Also, this would've made more sense if your read my first yandere don post. I decided to make "Don-Don" a nickname the reader as for Donnie as it's one I came up for him lmao. The writing/text definintely soundned a bit insane and eccentric, but Donnie is too. Eh, what do I know? This could be way out of character for him, Idk.

I listened to "The Red Means I Love You" and "Meant to be Yours" while writing this just to get in the yandere vibes lmao. Anyways;

Yandere Donnie Supremacy <3

(Btw I will write yandere or regular stuff lik headcanons for other ROTTMNT characters if requested, SO GO ASK ME THINGS-)

[dysfunctional-doodle]

What is your favorite and least favorite version of all the turtles?

I feel like it’s fairly obvious who I favour the most if you read my chat fic, Too Many Turtles (I have a lot of bias, oops) but I shall break it down.

Ok so favourites:

1987: Michelangelo (come on, he’s a surfer dude and actual angel)

90’s: Donnie (the snark he has with Casey makes my day, though Mikey is still second because he genuinely has the best relationship with Donnie I love watching those two interact)

2003: Mikey, duh. Just look at my blog and my fanfics. I love this chaotic gremlin.

2007: Mikey (again! Especially after hearing about the cancelled sequel of him joining the foot, his brothers demutating, etc. I will say I am looking forward to finally getting to the 2007 plot line in my chat fic, it’s gonna be great >:) )

2012: Raph (I haven’t watched much 2012 at all, I just can’t. I don’t know why people think it’s good in all honestly aside from a few episodes, but from what I’ve seen and mostly read about Raph gets way too much abuse dude, someone give this turtle a hug)

Bayverse: Donnie, followed closely by Mikey. (Idk why but the “younger sibling energy” they give these two is actually great. And Donnie’s little stims and the fact that he licks the icing off pop tarts and puts them back in the box just about pushes him above Mikey.)

2019: Mikey (again. Come on. Have you seen him in that movie?)

Rise: Donnie, followed closely by Mikey. (For me they are both pretty much even in different ways. I love Donnie’s chaotic neutral status and Mikey got boosted quite a bit after the movie, and the rage I feel whenever I hear about hall the episodes he was the star of but then they cancelled almost all of them.)

Mutant Mayhem: Mikey (Something about seeing him sadly look through a sewer grate at the humans with that music in the background made me want to protect him forever. Also I love his effort to try and be a comedian but his jokes are…um yeah. As a second I would actually say Leo - I know, strange for me - but idk, he’s just an anxious mess.)

And now least favourites, strap in boys:

1987: uuuh Leo I suppose. Kind of a fun sponge

90’s: again, Leo (though this doesn’t mean I dislike him; I really liked how happy he got when Raph woke up and the way he guarded him before then. He’s just the least favourite.)

2003: Leo (again, the same reasoning i iterated with 90’s. I really like this Leo but compared to the other brothers…he falls a little shorter.)

2007: Leo (Patronising Asshole)

2012: OK, this one is weird. I dislike Donnie the most by far only when he is simping for April. When they let him not have this as his only character trait he’s actually fun to watch but DEAR GOD I hate him when he kept being a creep to her.

Bayverse: Leo (He insulted Mikey, he must die /jk)

2019: Um I guess Raph? I like all of them pretty much equally, don’t really have a least favourite at all.

Rise: Leo (yeah I don’t like him. Don’t get why the fandom does. Still an ass)

Mutant Mayhem: Donnie (idk why, I like everyone else much more. Don’t get me wrong, I still like him though)

[milks-thoughts]

absolutely loving the stim ones! would it be a bit odd to ask for maybe a donnie and mikey (separately) as well? we’re so sorry, we’re a huge sucker for the boys ;-;

KEEP SENDING THESE REQUESTS I LOVE THEM LIKE AUQHSJWSJSHNW (realizing my Donnie seems OOC because I love soft Donnie and I mean did you see the way he treated Atomic Lass he would absolutely be a softy)

I’ll be meshing Donnie and Mikey together for this one, I also have another fluffy hc coming with April included!

TW: none! just more food for your souls

Donnie

⚛︎ my man’s absolutely loves it

⚛︎ Donnie will never admit it but it’s what he looks forward too, cause like, you just get so excited

⚛︎ it’s cute can you blame him?

⚛︎ and his churring? it makes him think of like when a cat purrs, just all the endorphins. after a long day of building it’s just what he needs

Being a person was hard, no one seemed to talk about it enough. Once you made it to the base you sorta just flopped on Donnie’s bed, he turned and looked at you “ my sweet what’s the problem? “ you smiled at him and made grabby hands. He, in the two years you’ve been dating has learned to love your gentle touches. Collapsing into you Donnie smiled, petting your hair “ what’s wrong? “ he asked again, you looked at him with sad eyes “ Life’s hard “ was all you muttered out. Donnie hated seeing you sad, because you looked like a kicked puppy. So he did the one thing that always seemed to cheer you up, he started churring. Your eyes blinked and you hands started tapping the bed a bit before you started replaying his churrs, he smiled fondly at you and continued messing with your hair. Donnies inventions can wait a little while.

Mikey

☼ fucking ADORES you and your stims

☼ even if they weren’t about him, he just loves listening to them

☼ loves when you mimic his churrs.

☼ it’s super relaxing, now he knows why you like his churring so much

Mikey had decided to take you spray painting with him, it was in the sewers but you enjoyed the time spent with him. Watching Mikey paint the wall in vibrant colors, his green hand cupping you face as he stared at his work. You tapped your hands and started to stim, suppressing your vocal stims. You didn’t want to draw attention to yourselves incase people were doing work. Mikey’s hand eventually left your face as he started painting, pouting you got distracted and let go of the reigns in your mind the next thing you know you were blabbing Mikey’s name like a dunce. He turned and smiled at you “ mhm? “ was all you mustered out on your wash of embarrassment, he showed a toothy smile “ I just really like your stims! “ you were glad you didn’t reply in fear he’d go Dr. Feelings on you. He tilted his head “ is something wrong? “ you simply shook your head “ No, nothing dearest. You’re painting is really nice “ He gave you a toothy smile and continued. Mikey was really sweet to you, and sometimes you wondered what did you do to score him?

[beannary]

Hi! Thank you for blessing us all with tlp :) it’s such a cool au and I like it a lot!! I have many thoughts about it so I’ll start writing them now:

With Donnie being raised by Big Mama, the change in dynamics with literally everyone is interesting to think about, so of course my brain has latched onto the concept of how Donnie’s dynamic with his own brain (his neurodiversity/autism) effects his relationships with himself and his family. 

(beannary note: putting everything under the cut so this doesn’t get too long)

Comparing Donnie’s relationship with his own neurodiversity in tlp to canon makes me so emotional you have no idea…..in canon he’s never had a need to mask, living in the sewers with a family who accepts him for who he is, so he has difficulties doing so when needed; we’ve seen him in situations where he is unable to mask/act “socially appropriate” (the mystic library episode comes to mind - he can’t control the volume of his voice when he gets excited. Also every single time he is put in a situation where he has to lie but he is comically bad at it. Also the many many instances in which he is shown being unable to ‘read the room’). But in tlp he seems to be masking a lot, either when he’s interacting with Big Mama’s guests or with Big Mama herself (your Masking is Hard comic comes to mind instantly - how Donnie has a hyperspecific role to play as Big Mama’s Son and the pressure to not only be sociable, but be sociable in a way that meets his mother’s expectations. Its a lot to handle, acting a way that doesn’t come naturally to you and no matter how many times you go through the motions you feel as if it doesn’t get any easier and you dont know why). Tlp Donnie can mask far more convincingly than canon Donnie, but only because he’s had to mask frequently throughout his life. It seems to me like he’s been taught at a young age that he needs to stop acting so “weird” (for example, stimming in obvious ways), because that kind of behavior loses its cuteness fast with Big Mama & most of the company she associates with. I imagine lots of his behaviors are discouraged as he grows up because they’re “not cute anymore” and he’s “not a little kid anymore” and he “needs to learn some manners/self-control” even though everything “weird” Donnie does feels like so natural to him, even as he gets older. Although I do think Donnie has instinctively coped with this by making his stims more subtle (this is where I get to be self-indulgent and imagine his stims - humming, tapping his feet, fiddling with any object he can get his hands on, blasting EDM in his headphones etc), and he only pulls out the big guns (aka big stims) when he’s in his own room with the door closed (or when he’s locked himself in a bathroom stall and physically cannot hold himself back anymore). 

Unfortunately for Donnie I also figure that this amount of masking makes him more susceptible to meltdowns. In canon Donnie has so much freedom and control over his own life that the only time I can remember him being even mildly close to Meltdown Territory is during the Todd Scouts episode when his tech was taken away. And even then, he immediately knows how to cope with the change by Creating with whatever tools he is able to find, his brothers just accepting his absence as he goes MIA to build the things he needs to make himself feel better (like the wooden battle shell). But in tlp au does he even know how to cope in healthy ways? Does he get to go MIA for long periods of time so he can pull himself together and prevent a meltdown from happening? Oouuggghh I just want him to be happy :( poor guy feels as if he has no control over his life to the point he develops an eating disorder, he absolutely has no idea what a healthy coping skill is. I’m torn in between concepts for how he processes his neurological differences - either he goes the “autism? don’t be ridiculous, everyone feels this way” route or the “I am astronomically Different from anyone else I know. surely this is just due to my superior intellect and not a developmental disability of any sorts”. Either way this dude is not connecting any dots nor processing any emotions in a healthy way. (Now that I think about it, while Donnie lives with Big Mama, his unique and different skillset are probably what he clings onto to feel needed and useful to his mother, so the latter makes sense for him during that time. But the former makes sense when the concept of Different scares him, when it’s not just intellect and fixations and tunnel vision but sensory issues and social awkwardness and repetitve movements, things that very clearly separate him from his family and make him less of the Perfect Son he is expected to be.) 

Another thing I’d like to ramble about is Donnie, his autism, and his relationship with his brothers and his dad….you mentioned in an ask that he doesn’t know he’s autistic but that may change when he starts living with the Hamatos. This made me think about how Donnie’s brothers react to his autistic traits in canon versus in tlp (assuming that no one knows that Donnie is autistic; they just know that his brain works Differently than the rest of theirs). In canon, Donnie has lived with his brothers for his entire life. His brothers know his habits, his preferences, his sensitivities, his moods, etc. He may be Different than the rest of them, but not so much that they think about it for more than 5 minutes. Donnie is their brother - any “weird” behavior is not too different from how how he usually acts. Donnie may be weird but they all are in their own ways and it’s not a big deal to them. His brothers are used to accommodating his needs and dealing with his moods. However, in tlp, Raph, Mikey, and Leo don’t know him very well yet. They’ve never lived with him before and when they do accept Donnie into their home as an Official Brother (a development I’m very excited for), they also can’t help but immediately recognize the stuff that makes him Different from the rest of them (if they’re the ones that recognize that it could be autism, than it’s Differences in a way that’s Familiar, if that makes sense). Differences that aren’t just unhealthy habits and mindsets from his previous shitty living situation. Obviously they can be accommodating but it would understandably take longer to adjust simply because they’re not used to Donnie’s specific quirks. They don’t know right away what makes him uncomfortable, or what textures he prefers, or why he moves and talks and acts the way he does. It’s a learning experience for everyone. 

As for Donnie and Splinter….they make me so emotional!!!! Your art of the two of them is so so good and captures that emotion. When Donnie lives with the Hamatos, everything changes. Anyone would have difficulties adjusting to this huge change, but I imagine for Donnie it’s a lot harder. How do you cope with leaving your mother, your only family member you’ve known your entire life? And now suddenly he has to stop being His Mother’s Son and become His Father’s Son, another role he has to create and adjust to (he doesn’t realize yet that his father doesn’t need Donnie to try to be someone he’s not - he loves Donnie unconditionally, just the way he is ;-;) because having a role to play is familiar to him, the only familiar thing he can cling onto during these huge changes in his life. Unfortunately though it just makes everything more exhausting, not only coping with the move into a literal sewer but trying to act like a perfect son for Splinter. Donnie doesn’t know yet that he doesn’t have to mask in front of a parent or meet impossible expectations to “earn” parental love and approval. Meanwhile Splinter sees how Donnie acts with his brothers (much more casual because Donnie doesn’t feel as if he has to “impress” his brothers the way he has to with a parental figure) versus how Donnie acts with him and thinks he’s doing something wrong, that he’s the one giving off an impression to his new son that he has to suppress his stims or say the “right” things or do stuff that makes him uncomfortable because he thinks it’ll make his parent happy…..but I have faith that this pressure eases with time, that they get more comfortable around each other the longer they live together. Eventually Donnie won’t be hesitant or embarrassed to take off the mask in front of his father. Maybe one day he’ll get rid of the mask around his family entirely!! Either way I’m excited to see tlp Donnie’s journey :) thanks for sharing your au with us!

HI THIS IS BEANNARY SPEAKING NOW wow this was so much and im sooooo glad that you are enjoying this au! And for real its so flattering that you like?? wrote all this about my silly au this has actually been the only thing that I could think about since you asked if you could send this in and yeah it’s just really nice to see that people like my comic and this little separated au that i dreamed up

One of the big differences between canon donnie and tlp donnie is tlp donnie’s ability to mask really well. When he was a kid, a lot of his stims were cute and adorable so Big Mama didn’t like encourage them? but let him you know stim freely since she thought it was cute, but as he got older and he kept on stimming in obvious ways she started really hounding him to stop. I do really like the idea of donnie starting to stim in more subtle ways, and im definitely going to try to incorporate that in some of the comics! He still needs to stim, because you know of the autism, and so he does tap his feet and play with whatever little object he can get in his hands when he’s in public. His room is his one safe space where he can really be himself, since its the one spot where he’s not being watched by anyone (his safe space isn’t his lab because what he does in his lab is highly controlled by Big Mama so while he does like being in there and getting to do his science, he’s still pretty on edge since he never knows if his mom is watching him or not). Donnie really loves spending time in his room, though he doesn’t really get a whole lot of time there by himself since Big Mama has filled his schedule with as many extra curriculars as possible so she can show him off all the time). But speaking of his room it sure would be bad if something happened to it! Sure would be bad if it was destroyed in some way thereby destroying his one safe space! Haha! ;)

And no! Donnie does not know how to cope in healthy ways! He is very good at figuring out when he is about to have a meltdown and at figuring out a way to subtly get out of a situation so he can go recuperate somewhere in private, but even then, he can never spend a whole lot of time to himself because if he ever disappeared for an abnormally long amount of time, it would draw attention to himself and more specifically to these meltdowns that he’s having and he really wants those to stay off of Big Mama’s radar since if she knows about them then that’s one more thing for her to criticize and then it’ll be even harder for him to deal with them with his mom now being aware of them. And yeah he does know about autism but he’s still like no it simply could not be me but in that way where he’s like 99% sure he’s autistic but is just refusing to acknowledge it so he can keep on pretending to be ‘normal’. if that makes sense alksdjfh

Living with the Hamatos is going to be very hectic and scary for Donnie just because of how different their home is from his current home. In tlp, Raph also is autistic im pretty sure idk I might change that as the comic progresses but at this point that is what im going with but just havent had a whole lot of time to develop, but that’s part of the reason why the hamatos are so accepting of Donnie, its because they’re already used to living with a sibling who is autistic so all of this is second nature to them, it’s just normal and that really throws donnie for a loop because he’s so used to walking on all these eggshells making sure to act as allistic as possible 24/7 only to be suddenly dumped into an environment where its completely normal and accepted for him to just be himself. And sure it’ll be a learning curve for the hamatos because like obviously not all autistic people are the same but it’ll also be a learning curve for donnie since he’ll finally be able to relax and figure out who he is without having to hide himself all the time. 

Donnie and splinter’s relationship is what im really the most excited to write about. I really want Donnie’s experience leaving Big Mama to mirror Splinter’s experience. And I really don’t want to spoil too much but Donnie is really not gonna like Splinter much at first, and it’s gonna take a while for Donnie to warm up to his dad, but also Splinter is going to be the most understanding of what Donnie is going through because well, Splinter also left an abusive relationship with Big Mama. I dont really want to say much more about their relationship because I dont want to spoil the good angst I have planned but I’m really excited to explore their relationship more!!!!

Also just for the record I have not like proofread any of this so there may be typos or maybe i said something dumb so just lmk and ill fix it aklsdjhf Im not autistic (or am I! I havent been to therapy in a while and I would not be surprised to find out that I am autistic or that I have adhd or something else) so lmk if i said something stupid or phrased something in a dumb way and I cannot emphasize how fast I will fix it 

Ok bye now!!! this was fun!!! and thank you for sending this in!!! Idk it just really warms my heart that someone out there is thinking about this silly au this much, makes it feel like all the work ive put into making this comic is worth it :)

Ok but Yandere turtles HCs with a reader who calls everyone hun , sweetie , love (just pet names ) love to see what you come up with 🐢

Considering the situation, this is going to be romantic

I have never heard of anyone who uses hun in my life. Like ever.

🐢 Anon I think...I kinda guess when I see the different emojis (when they're not like hearts or faces ofc)

Tw: Implied arson, mention of dead bodies, implied murder, guilt-tripping,

Yandere Turtles with MC who Calls Everybody Pet Names

✦Raph✦

Loves it but also hates it

It makes him feel special, but he heavily, heavily dislikes it when you use it for someone else.

Doesn't he have a higher priority compared to others? Isn't he your special boy?

Pouts and whines for you to only call him such names. You better listen to him because he will start punching people.

If you do designate the names for him, he's nuzzling your head, his long ass tail is wrapped around your ankle, and is just so happy.

If you don't do so, however, he'll keep hurting people so I suggest you end it quickly if you don't wanna see a dead body in one of the sewers' tunnels.

Likes traditional names like sweetie and darling.

*you call him a pet name* "Can we cuddle? Hm? Oh right, enemies."

✦Leo✦

Honestly, I don't think he would take it to heart at first. But over on it annoys him.

He would call you back with a certain name. He tries to make it like an only 'you two' type of thing so that it psychologically tricks you into developing a name for him too.

If it's successful: he's smirking, moving an eyebrow muscle, all that cockiness.

If it doesn't work, he's guilt-tripping. He makes you pity him so that you stop calling everybody else the labels and reserves them for himself instead.

I feel he would really love the fairytale names like prince or knight.

"Am I not special to you? I thought those names were only for the two of us..."

✦Princess Diana✦

Actually, I think he would be disgusted.

But! If you do it in a praiseful way he's going to be soaring over to Antarctica.

Honestly doesn't mind too much the fact you use it in daily conversation.

Maybe keep a name or two just for him and he'll be happy.

He's a drama queen at times (we love it) so for a rare moment, he might grab your hand or give you a hug. Oh and don't forget the leg stims.

He reacts the most normally of the four, considering his already lucidness and inexpressiveness to certain things.

Enjoys names that are nouns, ex. Genius or Scientist.

"Ooh call me that again! It brings such joy to my nonexistent ears!"

✦Mimi✦

Feeds into his delusions.

Only such a kind person would call everybody those names. He doesn't mind your trait at all, since he believes you can do no wrong.

If you gave him a specific name for him, however...He's going to go crazy for it. He'll claim it as his completely and if you call anybody else the name he's going to get rid of them somehow (time to get the gas and lighter again).

He reacts a similar way Raph does overall (for the specified name at least).

Loves any name you give him, but does prefer more cutesy ones.

*Fire burning in the background* "Now only I can be called 'honey'! It's not like you weren't worthy of them anyway~"

The amount of chaos I hold in my hands is concerning...But this blog was never calm in the first place anyway!

Tools for emotional regulation

This is specifically things I do for end of day decompression. I take an hour and I do different things off this list till I'm relaxed.

I understand that alot of these are "basic" but it's less about what you do and more so about taking time to care for yourself and ne present in your body in ways that feel safe.

I've broken this down in to categories of self soothing.

Environment

A calming environment is beneficial for obvious reasons so here's things I do to feel more safe in mine.

1. Turn off over head lights and uses LEDs, candles, or lamps instead

2. Noise cancelling headphones

3. Phone off

4. Christmas lights for some reason

5. Someplace to sit that isn't your bed (you can put pillows and blankets on the floor if need be)

6. I usually cleanse (witchy, may not be your thing)

7. Protection spells on your room specifically (witchy, may not be your thing)

8. Stuffies

Stimming

If you don't know what stimming is it's stimulating your senses as a form of self soothing. It's ok to move your body in "weird" ways, make odd sounds, or look for sensory experiences you find comforting. Nobody is watching, there's no one around to judge you release the feelings! I usually windmill my arms, rock back and forth, hum/sing, jump, etc. Anything you want.

It's actually really important to set aside time for stimming! You don't realize how important it is until you do it! It's scientifically proven to be harmful (particularly for autistic people) not to stim. It's really hard to unlearn suppressing it, so giving yourself a safe place to do so where you don't have to worry about what people think is important.

Sensory Seeking

Using tastes, textures, sounds, and visuals you like as a tool for self soothing is extremely powerful. This can look like so many things. I personally use perfume. I find certain scents incredibly calming and when I have them on I take deeper breaths because of them so it's a win win.

Other sensory examples:

1. use slime/clay

2. Touch fabrics you enjoy (like ultra soft blankets)

3. Listen to soothing sounds like music, rain, or ASMR

4. Drink a hot drink like tea or hot cocoa

5. Take a warm shower

6. Heating pads

7. Compression (weighted blankets/stuffies work great)

8. Stim boards

Clear mind

Sometimes you just need to get your feelings out. Having an outlet where you just express how you feel without worrying how it's perceived is important!

1. Journal (it's important to write like no one will read it cause they won't, unless someone will lol)

2. Sit outside or by a window

3. Write your doubts on toilet paper then fucking flush that shit to the sewers where it belongs.

4. Draw your feelings

5. Scribble non sensically

6. Scream into the void

Inner child time

It's time to kick internalized shame to the curb. What does your inner child want right now? If you were a kid again what would you do? It isn't wrong to do things you would've loved as a kid. It's important actually. What can you now do that you wish you could've done as a kid?

This one is incredibly individual cause I don't know what your inner child wants I'm just giving out ideas.

1. Play with slime, clay, kinetic sand, or play doh

2. Draw

3. Play with toys (have no shame)

4. Color

5. Legos

6. Read

7. Write a story

8. Make a "potion" (don't mix chemicals though)

9. Play with shaving cream I know you want to

10. Build a fort

11. Fluffy pajamas

12. Dance

13. Preform for stuffed animals

14. Barbie soap opera

15. Rewatch comfort shows

Headcanons: ROTTMNT Turtles Chirping (and Other Turtle Sounds)🎤🐢✨✨ pt. 1

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: If you're actually taking care of a real turtle, please be mindful of the noises they make! Chirps can come from stress, water temp, respiratory infection, etc. Yes, they can come from non-concerning reasons, but just be sure. IRL turtles don't have vocal chords! And also, several of these traits are taken from very different turtle species than our boys here!

Now that that's said, on to the headcanons!

The turtles can all make turtle sounds! Being half-human mutants (with actual vocal chords, teeth, human saliva, etc.) and isolated from other turtles besides each-other, their range/capabilities of and reasons for using these sounds differ— sometimes greatly—from their IRL turtle species counterparts.

The turtles accidentally created their own sort of pseudo-language that they use to communicate with each other. Chirps, trills, hums, clicks, etc. When words won't come out or they don't feel right to use, when traditional ASL— even their modified TSL (turtle sign language)— wouldn't suffice, it's something they easily fall into. Almost as easy as thinking itself.

Besides unconscious/automatic responses + occasional stimming, they hadn't used their turtle sounds as much as they did as kids. They still use it a couple times a day, typically over the dinner table, during movies, or whenever there was a turtle pile. But after Shredder, and especially after the Kraang's attempted invasion, it's something they've began to do more again.

When the turtles still couldn't form sentences, Splinter had went ham on trying to understand what each means. After guides on pet turtle care didn't do much for him, he was attentive and assumed based off their more humanlike behaviors that accompanied these sounds.

Nowadays, Splinter can't really decipher most of the new noises his sons make. He can still understand some smaller phrases: "Happy," "Sorry," "I want my family," "Stay," "Love you," "Scared," "Yes," "No," and "Hungry!" to name a few.

Raph didn't make many turtle noises when he was a baby, mostly making more humanlike ones. Though he did mew a lot when he was sick or if he had nightmares in his slumber. In addition to that, there's a specific low-frequency hum that only the other turtles could actually hear; typically made during sleepy and/or someone stressful moments. It's both an "I'm right here" and "Come here please" message.

Donnie grunted, though it came off more like a huff as a little one. His chirps sounded more like "cht. cht. cht." When he's thinking hard or feeling a little overwhelmed, he'll also emit a low-frequency hum, one only he could hear— unless he's spending time underwater with Leo, then he could hear it as well. He also hissed a lot. Especially on the days where he's clingy. There's 3 types of Donnie hisses: mildly bothered, "you're pushing it," and "I will actually bite you." How you figure out which is which? For Splinter, trial and error.

Baby Leo really worried Splinter because he kept chirping all the time. He thought that Leo had a respiratory issue and/or was under heavy stress from the sewers' conditions. It really didn't help that Leo got sick the easiest. And when distressed, he'd cry out sounding almost like an upset cat— not really helping with the respiratory infection theory. Turns out, Leo just chirped as a general form of communication, especially when he was feeling excited or happy.

Like Raph, Mikey didn't make a lot of turtle-like noises as a baby— but when he grew into a toddler— he did it a lot. He wore his emotions on his sleeve, and almost every sentence with punctuated with an companying sound. Usually clicks or something similar to a "yep!"/"yp!" sound with his beak.

Leo and Donnie were the most turtle-talkative out of them as babies n' tots. Heck, sometimes, the Disaster Twins™ would sometime just mimic each other's mews and chirps out of boredom (to which Mikey would follow suit, and eventually Raph too).

Splinter, Leo, and Mikey are the only ones who've ever heard Raphael hiss so loud and deep that it turned into a growl.

Raphael is the only one who's ever heard Leo hiss pre-Kraang.

Early on into knowing them, April asked about it. The day after they explained it to her, Donnie and Mikey began working on a "guide" comic together for some of the "basics." It's 40 pages long when they give it to April. As the years passed, she catches on pretty quickly to the various sound cues, and she can have short conversations without them needing to use words.

Casey Junior can understand them pretty well due to being raised around them— when he was small, he would try to mimic those noises (to varying results).

He may or may not have almost cried when he was in the Hamato-family-sleepy-pile and could feel the deep, comforting, low frequency sound reverberating from Raph as he and Leo rested against him— something he hadn't felt since he was just old enough to form memories. And he may have actually cried when Leo sleepily chirped back some sort of unintelligible, but content, response. They were peaceful.

[ Next - coming eventually ]

[hecksupremechips]

Here’s some Shinji hcs I have made that I wanna share:

Shinjiro doesn’t know Jack shit about technology. Put him in front of a computer and turn your head for one second and the things making some cursed dial up sounds and definitely broken. He’d probably call remotes clickers. He just can’t keep up with these new fangled devices!

Hes autistic because get real like I’m gonna let him escape my grasp without making him autistic. But in particular hes the bad at eye contact kinda autistic, he’s often looking at his shoes when walking, off to the side when he’s being edgy, and in an upper corner when he’s nervous. And socially he is very much a cat he doesn’t wanna talk too much but he will just sit in the corner of the room while everyone else is talking. Hed definitely mask a lot and repress a lot of stims but one that always comes out is nail biting, he’s a big nail biter

Shinjiro just seems like he’d like to read and in particular hed read jane austin and he’d absolutely freak out if anyone found out lol. Like he hates school, it’s never clicked for him, but when he’s on his own I think he’d enjoy reading to pass time and idk he just gives strong jane austin energy

He sews he knows his fucking way with the needle your honor

Shinjiro was always secretly really jealous of Mitsuru cuz she has a motorcycle and he thinks it’s the coolest thing ever but he was always too afraid to ask if he could ride it. He will one day though don’t worry!

I really like nonbinary Shinji like he’s kinda insecure about his more feminine interests but the sees gang is pretty supportive so he eventually gets comfortable enough and he may wear nail polish or long skirts. He’s also definitely the type to have always been really defensive over his long hair like as a kid whenever his hair was cut he’d just be really upset over it and whenever someone comments on his hair being too long Akihiko is like 😤. And in general I think Shinji just doesn’t feel connected to gender hes just like get this thing away from me lol

If he doesn’t become a cook I like to imagine him becoming a vet

He has a really hard time saying no to the sees gang like if he’s one on one he can with great strength but if more than one of them are in the room absolutely not they all give the biggest puppy dog eyes and he thinks they’re adorable it creates lots of highjinks

When Ken talks about his favorite superheros and mangas Shinji tries to be supportive but he literally has no clue what this kid is talking about

Throwing in some akishinji teehee they both wanna be the strongest one in the relationship it creates lots of petty arguments but Akihiko definitely would pick up Shinji super dramatically bridal style and Shinji would hate it but secretly like it at the same time. He wants to be the strong one he wants to be the one to take care of Aki but also Aki is so strong 🫣

Throwing in some shinjifuuka too Shinji thinks Fuuka is the cutest person he’s ever met he just wants to scream but he can’t do that he can’t emote so he just sits there silently dying inside while Fuuka meows at the wall. I also think when he was on the streets and heard those people bragging about bullying Fuuka he kicked ass about it cuz yo fuck those people man they suck and Shinji wouldn’t put up with that, especially not once he actually meets Fuuka. Like I don’t think he’d try to pick fights as much after the coma and I don’t think he would if he was with Fuuka cuz she wouldn’t want him to fight people but before that yeah he’d definitely be pretty pissed. Also I think Fuuka is a knitter and Shinji is a sewer so they bond over that and make clothes for each other Fuuka makes Shinji a cutesy frog beanie and he’s like tch whatever 🥺 but definitely wears it and he’s really embarrassed its cute

ROTTMNT Turtle Headcannons

Keep in mind that I have put both before the Krang events and After Krang events, so be warned for spoilers!

Reminder that almost all of these are Headcannons and aren't true to the actual narrative of ROTTMNT

I hope you enjoy!! (Try to guess which turtle is my favorite)

🐢♥️Raphael♥️🐢

[Before Krang]

He's got an Anxiety disorder and ADHD

He paces back and forth alot to think

He's so scared he'll crush his brothers with how big he is, so he's super gentle with people smaller than him.

BIG HIMBO ENERGY

Due to his ADHD he constantly needs stuff repeated, he's trying his best ok?

His father tried to put pieces of foam on his spikes when he was smaller to keep him and his brothers safe when Raph plays with them, but Raph ended up biting the foam and his father had to get it out of his mouth (imagine a person trying to get a piece of garbage out of a dog's mouth, and that's basically what happened)

He constantly chews, which is bad cause he often bites the inside of his mouth, leaving sores in them, or biting his fingers which due to his sharp teeth, often cause blood.

Donnie once got him one of those necklaces your can chew, and Raph LOVED IT....for five minutes because his bite force is so strong, he broke it, which upset him, but he's glad his brother gave him it.

Literally sleeps on a pile of teddy bears and makes a big nest for himself on his bed

He has named each stuffed animal individually and won't tell anyone their names

He has, surprising the quietist feet, which often scares his brothers because they don't hear him sneaking up on them.

Plays animal crossing and absolutely adores it

Would literally die for his brothers

His brothers all try to do the trust fall with him, and he always catches them, especially Leo, because Leo will do a trust fall in the middle of battle or off of a building as a joke and Raph will catch him, but then scold him

He listens to AJR on repeat because he loves the beat of their songs and their message

Literally can't do the floss, he's tried, but he can't and his brothers laugh at him for it.

Had braces when he was younger in hope of fixing his snaggle tooth, it didn't fix the snaggle tooth but it made his teeth really straight, and he's embarrassed of all the pictures of him that have braces in it

He has a big tail that drags on the floor, ans people accidentally step on it all the time, or when he turns around really fast, he literally flings people to the other side of rooms when he hits them

Uses his tail as a secondary attack

Very not flexible, can't touch his toes 😔

Literally will hug anyone, even a villain if he sees they need it, as much as it doesn't look like it, he gives the world's BEST hugs

Once ate moss as a dare and honestly thought it was pretty good, but now he eats it infront of Donnie because he knows Donnie doesn't like the texture or anything about moss and Raph eating it grosses him out

He talks in the third person as a vocal stim, he just likes saying his name

When he stims, he either paces back and forth, does big hand motions, swing his tail from side to side, or tap his fingers on something

The reason Raph is terrified to be alone, is because one day at the lair when he was young, his family went out somewhere but forgot him because he was sleeping and they didn't want to bother him, and some mutants kept trying to get into the sewers, and it was like a Home Alone type of shit, he's now really good at setting traps :)

Very claustrophobic

[After the Krang]

He wears an eye patch from the Krang eye thingie

Major PTSD

When he looks in the mirror, he sees glimpses of when he was part Krang and it terrifies him.

Stays in his stuffed animal fort for days for comfort

Is now extra EXTRA careful when with his brothers, he's terrified he'll hurt them again...

Constantly has an eye on Leo after the incident and almost has breakdowns everytime Leo isn't around him 24/7 because he's afraid Leo is gonna do something dumb or sacrifice himself again

Gives Leo tips on how to be a good Leader

He forgets he isn't leader sometimes and accidentally bosses the team around when it's actually Leo job now (he apologizes after word)

He stays curled up on his floor for hours on end, thinking about all what happened and it often leads to him crying

He doesn't eat for a while and his brothers have to convince him to eat

Him being turned into Krang left some effects on him, he has bigger sensory issues (that and plus his ADHD, it's like hell on earth), his eyes sometimes glow yellow which freaks him out, and he has bigger issues with controlling his strength and it scares him

Has even worse abandonment issues after it all

He doesn't like it when he can't move because it reminds him when he was kidnapped by the Krang

🐢💙Leonardo 💙🐢

[Before Krang]

He has the BIGGEST EGO

People often think he's an idiot but he's actually pretty clever when the time calls for it

Major ADHD

Since he can't get a prescription (because he's a mutant) he drinks a bunch of coffee in the morning

Says a "that's what she said", or "ur mom" joke to almost everything

Very homosexual

Very competitive

Smug Bastard

Had a FNAF phase with Donnie

Play Minecraft

Does fortnight dancing unironically

Insomnia from ADHD

Either one of the chilliest or craziest people you'll ever meet

Tired to go vegetarian one time because it was popular and almost immediately lost because he didn't realize that pepperoni is a meat

Chaotic Dumbass

He makes jokes during panic attacks and you can't tell wether to laugh at the jokes or to comfort him, usually both happens with his brothers

Musical theater kid

Found an old trumpet in the trash once, and self taught himself how to play it, but now he only plays Never Gonna Give You Up and Megalovania.

Used his Odáchi sword to cut pizza

Very very flexible

Knows everyone's tickle spots

Definitely has a tik tok account

One time he tried to do a tik tok dance and he gave himself whiplash (this actually happened to me)

Weak ankles

Can't sit in a chair correctly

He has to talk with big hand gestures

He can't multitask for the life of him

Is surprisingly good at Math

Wips and nae naes at ironic times

Can't sit still

He wishes 24/7 to have long golden hair

Even though he's an mostly aquatic turtle, he can't swim, he needs floaties

Literally almost drowned in 5 inch deep water

Collects rocks

He has a medium sized tail that goes down to the middle of his thigh, and he swings it around a lot and brags about his tail

Swings his tail back and forth when he dances or as a stim.

Black sheep of the family vibes

When he gets a sensory overload, he often goes to his room cause it's dark, and listens to 2000's pop

Owns a little bunny rabbit stuffy but straight up deny's of owning it

Paints his finger nails black

Owns many fidget spinners, both as a sensory toy, and because it was cool

Does air guitar when he listens to music

He needs glasses but refused to wear them as a kid so he now uses contacts, but he would rather be caught dead then be caught wearing glasses

Only watches comedies

Due to his anatomy, he is a female Red-Eared Slider, but he always just thought of himself as a dude along with his brothers, and their father couldn't tell the difference between a female and male red eared slider, so he believed that Leo was a male

When Leo started going through puberty, he thought he was gonna die, so when he brought it up with April about it, she had to go all Big Sister mode and explain it all to him, thankfully due to him being around his brothers all the time, he knew how to lower his voice to the point where he didn't even need to think about lowering it

His family (except Donnie and April) all think Leo was born male at birth

[After Krang]

Major PTSD

It takes him a long time to get back into the gist of making jokes and puns

For a while he's just....quiet, he doesn't say much besides small conversations

He has a hard time processing all of what happened

He gets clingy to his brothers, scared that there's gonna disappear or be gone forever if he leaves them

VERY anxious about the whole "Now I'm Leader" stuff

Worried that he's gonna make the wrong call and get his family in trouble again like last time

Listens to his family alot more when it comes to making decisions to the point where he won't put his own input cause he's scared he's gonna get them all hurt again

Major Nightmares

Literally broke so many bones in the Prison Dimension, he tries to stand up, but his brothers push him down because he can't even walk or move because of how much damage was caused

He heals a lot faster than regular people, but his brothers keep him bedridden for a while just in case

Fusses over his brothers injury's and he blames himself for it

He gets some pretty bad insomnia out of all of this

Doesn't eat for a while

Him breaking some of his bones and tearing his muscles, he becomes double jointed in some areas, and when he gets back to making jokes, he likes to freak and gross the others out with how he can bend his hands or something

He cried so hard when Casey had to be sent back to his own time

Even though he only knew Casey for many hours, he saw Casey as like a son, or a friend

Alot more cautious

When they all get better enough to go on missions again, Mikey, Donnie and Raph all try to make sure Leo doesn't sacrifice himself again like an idiot

Instead of getting sad, he got angry, he got so angry at himself for everyone getting hurt, he got angry for disappointed his family, and he was just so angry about everything, eventually (with the help of his brothers) he was able to calm down a lot more about it all.

[Before Krang]

He's got Autism 💅🏻✨

Even when he doesn't need them, he keeps his battle shell and goggles on as a pressure stimulant

Will often lay on his stomach and embrace his inner pancake

As a kid he liked to dig holes, but he would just kinda sit in them, and chill (based off of Softshell turtles)

Very big theatre kid (also the dance he does with Atomic Lass at the beginning? Yeah, there is a part in a musical that does this EXACT move, so I feel like he picked up some dancing from musical choreography)

Big fan of meat lovers pizza, softshell turtles are carnivores, and his brothers once saw him eat a whole stick of sausage at 3 am because they heard some noises, it was the most terrifying thing they've ever seen

Taps his fingers on things in patterns as a stim

Often sways back and forth

He has the smallest tail out of his brothers, and he likes it that way, he would prefer that he doesn't have a big clunky tail that would get in the way.

His brothers tease him about his small tail and it's often why he gets picked last in things, because sometimes they go in order of who has the longest tail

Sometimes his tail wags like a dog's when he needs to stim or when he's excited

Only listens to EDM/Electronic Music and 80's pop, constantly listens to them on repeat

You know that bracelet he has on his wrist? Yeah, well one day Leo got a hold of it and figured out how to download subway surfers on it, Donnie can't delete it for some odd reason, but now Donnie kinda plays it on his wrist device thing when he's bored

Was definitely a sticky iPad kid growing up

The internet raised him

Had a FNAF phase with Leo and can tell you all of the lore of FNAF

Once called Baron Draxum, father, as an accident, but now he won't let himself live it down and he internally reminds himself to call him Draxum, but he's still chill with him

Was definitely overtly cautious when he was around his brothers when he was younger, because he knew they played rough and how he had a softshell, so his brothers stuck and taped a bunch of big objects to his back to protect his softshell.

He has done the thing where he sits in a chair in the dark and turns around when Leo get home and asks him "So, where have you been all night?"

He knew Santa wasn't real as a kid, because, science, but he always enjoyed seeing his brothers so happy when he was younger, so he always played along

His room is the darkest room out of all the rooms

His father didn't know what autism was, so when he saw Donnie stimming as a kid, he thought his son was gonna explode

He wasn't surprised when he realized that Leo was born female, due to his anatomy it was obvious to him cause he did a lot of research, but he never brought it up because he never felt the need to and he still loves his goofy twin, even if he's a pain in the tail

Best sense of smell ever, it's almost scary

He plays a lot of puzzle/adventure games

The best swimmer out of all of them

He has a bunch of purple markings (like on his arms) that are all over his face, but he's super insecure about them so he covers them up with his bandana

He first drew on his eyebrows when he first took a nap on the floor as a kid, and his brothers tried to prank him by drawing eyebrows on his mask while he slept, but when he found it, he actually thought it looked kinda cool, sure, it needed some tweaking, but he loved it and started doing it ever since

Everytime Leo complains about how big Donnie's eyebrows are, he draws them on twice as big the next day to spite him

Terrible sleep schedule, his brothers have to drag him to bed, which he refuses often, but he can't go against his brothers

Literally addicted to Monster energy drinks, especially the Purple and White ones (I've tried so many monsters, and I feel like Donnie would like these two the best)

Hates sour stuff, and Spicy stuff, but he Loves savory stuff and salty stuff

[After Krang]

Major PTSD

Is alot more panicky about his Softshell

Being ripped out of the Krang ship controls messed with parts of his brakn

Now he gets these motor tics, and often verbal tics, he also has even more trouble with being relaxed and sleeping (since his brain was in a relaxed state when it was controlling the ship, his brain is afraid to let him be relaxed in case of being damaged again.), And more emotional outbursts, which is the most concerning to his brothers since often he doesn't show much emotions

Goes quiet for a long while, and Shelldon and his family have to bring him food

Often is accompanied by Shelldon more often

Shelldon has to talk for him for a while

Lots of nightmares of his body being torn apart when the Krang ripped him out of the machine, and nightmares of his family being hurt

Stops making machines for a long time

Sleeps with his battle shell on for a long while

He runs a lot of tests on his brothers, especially Raph because he's scared that it might have long lasting affects on them, thankfully nothing physically, besides broken bones, but he was very startled to realize all of his brothers got PTSD from the whole thing

Really tired alot more

🐢🧡Michelangelo🧡🐢

[Before Krang]

ADHD

Since he's a boxshell turtle, he doesn't have webbed feet, meaning it's a lot harder for him to swim so he doesn't really like swimming or water in general

Doesn't have an ADHD prescription, so he usually drinks tea, or super fruity energy drinks to work as a prescription

Great sense of smell

He had to learn how to cook at a young age since Splinter didn't really cook for them

Master of cooking and baking

He's got two left feet when it comes to dancing, but he still enjoys dancing as a whole, even if he trips up, he laughs about it

When his brothers make self insulting jokes, he pulls out Dr. Delicate Touch, it's the main reason why his brothers make jokes about how good they are

iPad kid when he was growing up

Terrible Pollen alergy

Sings while he cooks, cleans and showers

He mostly likes songs to vibe to, or songs with great energies

Amazing whistler

Very acrobatic

(as shown by him literally THROWING A BOAT in like the last episode) he's one of those people where if they snap, then the world will literally end

Dyslexic

Has a hard time with words and stuff, but give him time please 🥺

When he stims he often sways back and forth, does a little ✨dancy-dance✨, puts his hands into fists and shakes them or he spins around

Very clumsy

Was a very picky kid

A very spoiled child

When him and Donnie were kids, he would stick around Donnie because Raph and Leo were usually rough housing, and Donnie couldn't as much due to his softshell, so he would stick around Donnie, often grabbing the sleeve of his shirt and following him around, it's one of the main reasons why him and Donnie are so close

Often times (when Donnie lets him) he'll paint his gadgets and often have a chance at naming some of them

Has beaten Candy Crush

Alot smarter then he looks

The family's therapist

Had a gacha phase as a kid

Calls everyone baby or says baby alot platonically (example: "Boom baby!" "That's how we roll, baby" ect ect)

Often will hide in shell when stressed, overstimulated, or scared

Often times his brothers have to talk him out of his shell.

He has the second smallest tail, which he will wag happily when he's happy, or sway around when he's doing stuff, has definitely accidentally hit his tail with his nun-chucks and he cried (imagine hitting yourself in the genitals and that's how he felt when he hit his tail, poor baby 😭)

Draws on himself all the time

Every wall in his room is painted and it's absolutely stunning, he's been trying to paint on the celling

A very big hugger

Will cling to people

He's literally "looks like a cinnamon roll, could kill you"

Knows sign language

He can lick the tip of his nose/beak with his tounge

Very sensitive/bad knees, that's why he wears the knee pads

Doesn't know how to tie a tie/bowtie so he has to get his brothers to do it for him

Has his own cookbook with recipes he made himself

At night he walks by the pet store, and stares at the turtles and just rubs the window saying "one day....I will free you" and Raph has to pull him away from the glass everytime

Used to sleep in his shell as a kid and it took a lot of time for him to sleep outside of his shell, but he sleeps in his shell when he goes to bed sad

He was one of those kids where when you asked them their favorite color, he would say "The RAINBOW" because he couldn't decide his favorite color, but eventually, he settled on orange

Has lost many many pencils from drawing so much that sometimes his brothers will look under somewhere or lay somewhere and they'll find one of his pencils

He was the turtle that helped his father assign colors to them (because he knows color theory and that colors can be associated with personalities, so he rambled to his dad about it when he was very young, and their father decided to use that to decide their colors.)

Enjoys Indie games

Can do the splits

[After Krang]

Is scared of his hands

He's scared that if he uses his mystic hands, that he'll die

Is afraid to touch things for a while

He grew more attached to his brothers, especially Donnie, when he saw his brother fall into the Krang Ship controls, and when he was forcefully torn out, if scared him half to death, he thought he lost his brother

Makes soup for everyone after the battle, but then immediately collapsed into bed due to exhaustion

Is very surprised with himself after he THEW A LITERAL SKYSCRAPER

After he made the portal, he gained the ability to hover around without touching the ground (Future Mikey is shown to do this)

His brothers are at first scared that Mikey can literally just float around when he wants to

But Mikey doesn't like to do it often, he mostly only does it when his legs are to tired, when he isn't paying attention and it activates by itself, and when he is thrown into battle

Cried a lot of tears when it was all over

Stays in his shell alot more and thinks

Starts sleeping in his shell again and it takes a while for him to get out more

Has a lot more sensory overloads

Not as joyful for a while

It takes a long time for him to bring back his little persona's like Dr Feelings and Dr Delicate Touch

Doesn't paint for a while

Like his brothers, he got PTSD from all of this

Alot more protective of Donnie because of when he Donnie tried protecting Mikey and he broke his battle shell

Wonderful

2012 Donnie x reader

Romantic or platonic? : romantic

relationship(s) : 12 Donnie x chubby human reader

type of reader; chubby gn makeup wearing reader

THANK YOU TO @puunk FOR REQUESTING AND GIVING ME BRAINWORMS!! SORRY ITS SO SHORT!!

Earlier that night my boyfriend Donatello decided to invite me over for a surprise date night, and I was ecstatic to go! Us two hadnt had time for a proper date night in forever! what with him saving the world from the Kraang takeover and me being out of state for family affairs.

The outfit I'd picked out looked flattering with the makeup paired with it, a deep, dark purple sundress that fit me perfectly with a black coat, black lipstick and black tennis shoes. Not the best outfit for going to see your sewer-dwelling mutant turtle boyfriend but whatever! I hadn't seen him in forever and I deserved to look pretty either way.

When I'd entered the lair Mikey spotted me right away and began teasing me about the dress, as if he hadn't dressed up as an old woman on more then one occasion and almost fell of his hard a second ago. luckily I knew it wasn't malicious by now or there would've been argument about it, but that's just how Mikey is. I brushed him off politely with a little 'Hello!' and a quick hug before I kept it moving.

I crossed the lair and took note of my surroundings. Leo's as watching Space Heros, Raph was in the kitchen with Spike and Donnie was almost indefinitely in his lab. My exact hypothesis was confirmed when the clattering of metal on concrete could be heard and in turn I picked up the pace. Usually the sound of things falling would just mean he'd moved to fast or stimmed and knocked something over, but sometimes it meant worse.

I placed my palm against the keypad and the door flung open to reveal Donnie on the other side doing the exact same thing. We ended up just standing facing each other for a moment before i couldn't contain my giggles any longer.

"What's so funny?" He asked, appalled as i nearly doubled over in laughter.

"why- why were you heading out here at the same time as me?" I spoke between boisterous laughter, now with one hand in the wall and the other holding my side as my ribs started to hurt. I don't know why this was so funny of me, honestly.

"first off, i was coming out here to greet you since i saw you on the security cams. second, i know you get worried when things fall so i came out here to tell you everything was okay." He held his arms out to offer a hug, or to help me up, almost shyly.

"awwwwww.. you're way to sweet, Dee!" I moved quick to hug him and peck his cheek, dropping my head into the crook of his neck and stroking along the back of his shell in a soothing manner. His arms, which he had left open even after i was clinging to him, closed gently around my back and held me back just as tight.

"Don't patronize me." He rolled his eyes as if it would keep me from seeing the blush and shy smile overtaking his features.

"mhm.. so, what's the plan for tonight, Mr. Science?" I asked, pulling my head back enough to see his face. The shy smile he was wearing transformed into a borderline wicked grin as he pulled me into the lab, yelling a quick excuse to his brothers, before the doors wooshed closed.

And then the kisses started. At first I just grazed his knuckles, wiping off the lipstick after with care, not wanting it to stain his green skin. then a few pecks to the cheek, leaving the marks alone. It was kinda nice to be able to see visually that he was mine, even if it was already obvious we were each others forever right now. Before he knew it he was absolutely coated in black lipstick stains and my lipstick was smeared around. We both looked like love drunk idiots, tomato red and deep green dusting our cheeks as the laughter started again.

"There, all done!" I proudly declared after a final kiss on the lips, "now you really do look like a diamondback terrapin!"

A look of shock and a bit of regret overtook his face, it was almost like you could read his thoughts. 'Goddamnit he should've never mentioned it' his expression screamed. I knew he didn't mean that, but I'd constantly made stupid little jokes about how if they were diamondbacks then why didn't they have the black spots. that conversation had started a few, albeit lighthearted, arguments in the past.

Either way, he had to wash it off eventually, so we both stepped out of the lab to head for the lair's bathroom. Fortunately for us, it was a short walk away. Unfortunately, April, Casey and his brothers were all sat watching a movie and saw the two of us walk out.

A chorus of "OOOOOOOO"s and teasing trailed us as we both did the walk of shame, although I wasn't ashamed at all and wasn't afraid to show it. I waved over my shoulder at everyone with a toothy grin, proud of my work.

Donnie was mortified the whole way there, shielding his eyes and pursing his lips in an attempt to at least hide the one stain there. He squeezes my hand twice and I turned my attention fully to him. His blush had spread father than before and he was folding in on himself, making himself smaller. I took pity and stopped antagonizing his family and egging them on. We finally reached the bathroom and began the dreaded process of cleaning up.

Eventually the marks were mostly gone, minus a few small stains, and the lipstick had been removed as well. Donnie still sat on the counter as I used a wet washcloth to gently scrub away the black marks and stains on his face and neck. When I was satisfied I rinsed the rag again before adding it to a pile of dirty towels in the corner. 'I'll run those to the dry cleaner later' I swore to myself, knowing full and well it wouldn't happen until someone yelled at me to.

Heading back to the lab seemed like the logical option, but Donnie didn't wanna be ridiculed again. In passing, he should've just gone anyways, but he was stubborn and I had ended up gently tugging him along by the hand. Another chorus of teasing rang out quietly as you both passed. Donnie attempted to shield his face with his free hand again while you simply waved, WAVED, as we both passed.

one thought plagued him as the walk seemed to drag on forever.

'God, what have I gotten myself into.' ♡
