āI canātĀ believeĀ youāreĀ doingĀ this to me again.ā Leo grumbled under his breath as he rested his mouth on his palm, glancing away from his brother as he sighed loudly.Ā
āWellĀ maybeĀ if you werenāt soĀ fuckingĀ recklessĀ I wouldnāt need to.ā Donnie growled lowly, glaring down at his twin.
āIām not aĀ baby,Ā Don. I donāt need to be supervised like Iām some bombĀ triggered toĀ explode.ā The younger said in exasperation, lying down on his bed whilst grabbing a comic book to read off of his desk.
If Leo was going to be told off and scolded by his dear beloved brow-loving brother, he should atĀ least have something to occupy himself with in the meanwhile.Ā
The softshell groaned eternally at his little brotherās action, quickly snatching the piece of literature out of the otherās hands and throwing it effortlessly to the ground.Ā
Uninterested lime green eyes locked with a determined yet fierce light golden, both of them refusing to look away or blink to show their dominance.
But after a while, the red eared slider grew more impatient, looking away again as he picked a hangnail on his thumb, āIf youāre going to yell at me,Ā can you just get it over with?Ā I saw a reddit post predicting whatās going to happen in The Umbrella Academy season four and IĀ needĀ to read it.āĀ
āYou can read thatĀ later,Ā Nardo. I promise you, that reddit post isnāt going toĀ fly away.ā The elder said as he pinched the bridge of his snout, āWhat IĀ needĀ you to do right now is acknowledge what you did today wasĀ stupid,Ā alright?āĀ
Leo looked away from his older brother, scoffing lightly, āI do stupid things all the time.Ā What stupid action of mine are you wanting to scream at me forĀ thisĀ time?āĀ
The softshell turtle took a couple deep breaths at that comment, drumming his fingers on his left arm in a soothing motion because he wasĀ NOTĀ going to give into the urge of strangling his twin brotherā¦
ā¦No matter how much he deserved it.
āIām not planning on screaming at youā that wonāt helpĀ anyoneĀ orĀ anything.ā The purple banded turtle explained calmlyā¦but you could see andĀ tellĀ he was starting to lose his paitence.Ā
āBut you want to.ā The red eared slider pressed on.Ā
āLeoā¦please.Ā IĀ donātĀ want to argue right now.āĀ
āWeāre not arguing.Ā Weāre justĀ kindlyĀ discussing myĀ oh-soĀ stupidĀ descisionĀ that unfolded earlier today, right?ā The younger twin smirked smugly, his eyes locking once again with his brother.Ā
When it came to arguments, the leader in blueĀ alwaysĀ had thisĀ wonderfulĀ tactic to avoiding things:Ā attempting to annoy the other personĀ so muchĀ that they drop the subject they wanted to discuss with himĀ completely.
It always worked withĀ Raphā¦which the red eared slider didnāt know whether that was aĀ goodĀ thingĀ or aĀ badĀ thing.
But the only downside ofĀ doingĀ this tactic was his dumb twin sawĀ rightĀ through itā¦
ā¦And LeonardoĀ despisedĀ it.Ā
āNardoā¦youĀ knowĀ what Iām referring to.Ā And stop picking,Ā please.Ā Your going to hurt yourself.ā The older attempted to say in a tranquil voice, but it personally just sounded like he wasĀ one secondĀ away fromĀ losing. his.Ā shell.
āI sadlyĀ do not knowĀ what your referring to.ā The blue cladded teen said coyly, picking on his hangnail more desperately now, āCare to enlighten me, Tello?āĀ
Donnieās expression hardened ever so slightly at his younger brotherās absoluteĀ persistenceĀ on annoying him out of hisĀ right mindĀ so he could eventually drop the subjectā¦but the softshell turtle wasĀ notĀ budging.
His twin would have to tryĀ way harderĀ thanĀ that.
āIādĀ loveĀ to.ā The light golden eyed mutant said in a fake sweet tone as he walked over to lean his shell on Leoās closed door, crossing his arms in disaproval. The elder grabbed his brotherās sword, planting it right next to his foot so the blue banded turtle couldnāt reach for it.Ā
The red eared sliderās cocky grin turned to a small grimaceĀ (shake)Ā as he soon came to terms with what his older brother was doingā¦
ā¦He physically could not leave from this conversationā¦literally.
Leonardo crossed his arms, trying to mimick the otherās serious demeanor but was only met with an icy glare in return.Ā
āWhat you did during todayās mission was completleyĀ recklessĀ andĀ idiotic,Ā Leonardoā¦and you know it.ā The second oldest said, āI had that thugĀ exactlyĀ where I wanted him butĀ noooooo.Ā Because you saw meĀ tripĀ you thought it would be aĀ spectacularĀ ideaĀ to throw yourselfĀ on topĀ of me as that hooligan tried to hit me with hisĀ bat!!ā Donatello seethed.Ā
āWeāve been over thisĀ multipleĀ times,Ā Leo! There wasĀ noĀ reasonĀ for you to do that!ā The light golden eyed teen yelled, his glare only hardening more as he saw the younger stuttering over his words to try to defend himself.
āIām not done.ā The taller teen growled, all of his calmness and collectiveness thrown completley out of the window.
The slider slightly flinched (which went un-noticed by the other) at his brotherās genuine angry tone, his left leg fidgeting and bouncing up and down like crazy.Ā
His tactic wasĀ reallyĀ starting to not work in his favour at allā¦
āJustā¦stop putting yourself in the middle of danger like youāre just expecting the rest of us to justĀ watch.Ā Weāre your familyā¦and mostĀ importantly,Ā we can defend ourselves justĀ fine.āĀ
āWell ihisnātĀ thatĀ hypocritic!ā Leonardo scoffed before creasing his eye ridges together in genuine confusion, mumbling to himself, āHypā¦uhā¦hypocrotic?Ā Hypā¦Hypocraticā¦?āĀ
āHypocritical?ā The older deadpanned.
āYES!Ā THATĀ WORD!ā Leo said, āWhen we were fighting Kraang Prime on the ship and he went to take a blow at Mikeyā¦what did you do?ā
Donatello scowled, his eyes not leaving his twin, āā¦I went in front of him and shielded him with my mystic tech.ā
āExactly.ā The lime green eyed mutant scoffed, āAnd how is that any different from whatĀ IĀ did, hm?ā
āBECAUSEĀ IĀ HAD A PLAN!!!ā Donatello shouted, āIĀ plannedĀ to accordingly go in front of Mikey so my sheild could protect bothĀ him andĀ me.Ā Did it end up turning out perfect?Ā Fuck no.Ā Kraang Prime slashedĀ right through itĀ and me and Mikey wentĀ tumblingĀ towards the groundā¦ā The glasses wielding teen said through clenched teeth.Ā
The light golden eyed teen rubbed his face tiredly, his hands clenching and unclenching in frustration, āBut I had aĀ plan.Ā YouĀ on the other hand, just zoomedĀ recklesslyĀ on top of me and hoped for the best.ā
āā¦IĀ saved you,Ā didnāt Iā¦?ā The younger twin mumbled out meekly, causing Donatelloās blood to absolutleyĀ boil.Ā
āThatāsĀ notĀ theĀ point!!!ā The elder said as he clenched his hands at his sides again.
āThen whatĀ is?!ā Leo said desperately, āBecause from the looks of it, it just seems like you want toĀ yell at meĀ for just doing myĀ job.āĀ
Leonardo pulled on his mask tails anxiously, trying to calm himself down but ultimately just making himself feel worse by doing the action, āIāve beenĀ tryingĀ to be a better leaderāā
āLeoāā
āāForĀ youĀ andĀ MikeyĀ andĀ AprilĀ andĀ RaphĀ andĀ CaseyĀ andĀ C.J.Ā a-andĀ Dad!Ā But it seems like no matterĀ what the hell IĀ doĀ thereās alwaysĀ somethingĀ Iām doingĀ WRONG!!!ā The younger twin shouted, blinking back tears as he glared at the ground as if it took his Jupiter Jim comic.
Whichā¦itĀ did.Ā The blue banded mutant wanted it back now, actuallyā¦
āI saved you! I-I didnāt even getĀ hurtĀ by doing it butĀ somehowĀ thereās an issueā¦ā The lime green eyed teen murmured, both of his legs bouncing up and down as he tugged on his mask tails harder, āThere alwaysĀ isā¦ā
āLeonardo can youĀ pleaseĀ justĀ listenĀ to me?ā The older twin said in irritation.Ā
āBut Don Iāmāā
āNo, Leo!Ā JustĀ listen!Ā ThatāsĀ allĀ you need to do!ā Donnie snapped as he cut his brother off, āI donāt want you leapingĀ head firstĀ into harms way!Ā At all!Ā EspeciallyĀ if you donāt have a plan!ā The softshell turtle exclaimed as he flapped his hands against the side of his thighs, but his eye contanct remaining on his little brother.
āOho soĀ nowĀ you donāt trust me well enough to know that I can handle myself in combat?ā Leo said in a last desperate attempt to make his brother drop the conversation.
āIā¦ā The young scientistās eye twitched, his eyebrows creasing together as he had to physically restrain himself to not beat the ever livingĀ crapĀ out of the other teen, āTHIS ISĀ NOTĀ ABOUTĀ TRUST, NARDO!ā The light golden eyed mutant screamed desperately, his hands flapping faster as the red eared slider shrunk at his usage of tone, āThis is aboutĀ youĀ not evenĀ thinkingĀ about what would happen to yourself when you doĀ reckless nonsenseĀ like this.ā
Leo glanced to the side, his eyes watering as he bit the inside of his cheek.
He just wanted toĀ helpĀ and be the leader his brotherāsĀ deservedā¦
But he always found a way toĀ fuck it upĀ without even noticing, huh?
"You don'tĀ thinkĀ about what could happen to you andĀ IĀ hateĀ it!ā The elder cried, āWhat wouldāve happened if Raph didnāt come behind the guy and knocked him out cold at the last second, huh?! Would you have just stayed right on me as he continued to beat you with his bat?!ā
Leonardo bit the inside of his cheek harder, his legs bouncing up and down more as his fingernails dug unforgivingly into his arms, āI-Iām sorry, Donnieāā
āOr would you have tried toĀ fight himĀ instead?! Mind you, you dropped your sword before coming to me so youād haveĀ no weaponĀ to defend yourself.āĀ
āYou don't thinkĀ about how much itĀ scaresĀ me when you do dumb shit like that! IĀ hateĀ seeing you get hurtā¦I freakingĀ loatheĀ it.ā Donnie rested the back of his head on Leoās door, taking a couple deep breaths and hugging himself in an attempt to calm himself down.
Jeezā¦when the hell had he startedĀ yelling?Ā His throat stung like aĀ bitchĀ nowā¦
AndĀ whenĀ had he started shaking like a bobby head?!
The older twinās expression softened, pinching the bridge of his snout once more, āI care about youā¦soĀ fuckingĀ much,Ā okayā¦?ā The purple banded turtle said gently as he gradually started to simmer down and become more calm, āYour myĀ twinā¦myĀ little brother.Ā And IĀ hateĀ to be repetitive but I-I justĀ despiseĀ seeing you hurtā¦physically or emotionallyā¦soĀ pleaseĀ justā¦ā
The young scientistās eyes widened, peering down at his brother who did not seem to be followingā¦at all.Ā
Leoās eyes were wide as saucers as he hit his arm with his fist repeatedly whilst obviously trying to suck in whatever tearsĀ daredĀ to try and escape.Ā
The taller turtle basically ran to his distressed twin, trying to stop him from harming himself any further but was only met with a low grunt.
Shit.
Shit. Shit.Ā Fucking shit.Ā
Wonderful job, Donatello! You yelled at your brother so much he shut down!
Even though you knew he canātĀ fucking standĀ being yelled at and theĀ whole pointĀ of you evenĀ being hereĀ was to explain what he did wrongĀ collectively and calmlyĀ because that was the exactĀ oppositeof what Raph does when heās worriedā¦
But no!Ā You yelled at him anyway.
Wonderful job, Donatelloā¦wonderful. job.Ā
The older twin sighed sadly, gently grabbing his brotherās wrists so he would stop hitting himself. The two brotherās shared eye contact once again, an unsure lime green meeting an understanding yet uncertain light golden.
āNardoā¦ā The softshell started, squeezing the otherās hands gently, āā¦Are you with me, budā¦?ā
Leo just nodded quietly, squeezing back.Ā
āGodā¦Nardo IāmĀ soĀ sorryā¦ā The older muttered, āI donātā¦I donāt knowĀ why theĀ hellĀ I lost my cool like that. I-Iām sorry I yelled. IĀ shouldnātĀ of yelledā¦I-I justā¦ā Donatello sighed, squeezing his brotherās hands once again. āIām not angry with you. Iā¦I was just frustrated.ā
āWell, noā¦let me rephrase:Ā I amĀ angry with youāĀ livid even.Ā You know damn well enough that when you do those kinds of things my heart literallyĀ jumpsĀ out of my shell. I need you to put into consideration that I would like to live to atĀ leastĀ seventy-sevenā¦ā
The younger twin giggled wetly, fidgeting with his brotherās fingers as he spoke, āā¦Why seventy-seven?ā
āAlbert Einstein died when he was seventy-sixā¦I can andĀ willĀ outlive him.ā The light golden eyed teen said matter-of-factly, āBut back to what I was initially sayingā¦I know you meant well.Ā You saw that I was in troubleā¦and you dropped literallyĀ everythingĀ in order to help me get out of said trouble. You donāt think of what happens to youā¦you just do it because youāll know if you do weāll be alrightā¦ā
āI-I justā¦I just wanted to protect youā¦I-I just wanted to helpā¦ā Leo tried to explain.
āI know. I know, Leeā¦ā Donatello sighed, rubbing the sliderās knuckles gently with his thumb, āBut you need to understand that with you trying to protect us that way, your putting us in the same situation your trying to keep usĀ awayĀ from.ā The elder explained lightly, smiling softly as him and his twinās foreheadās touched.Ā
āYouāre getting hurtā or at the very leastĀ almostĀ getting hurt. Weāre feeling the same anguish and guilt you would feel if any of us did that. I get that you want to be a good leader and shitā¦but you can lead wellĀ withoutĀ doing thatā¦okay?āĀ
Leo fiddled with the otherās fingers a bit more, his bouncing leg starting to calm a bit, āIāllā¦try to be more careful when it comes to me protecting you guys like that. When I see you all in troubleā¦I justā¦react.Ā I donāt really care about what happens to me as long as you guys end up okay. Butā¦Iāll try to be more careful. And if I ever end up, like, being a bitĀ tooĀ recklessā¦you can just tell meā¦deal?ā
āDeal.ā Donnie nodded, squeezing Leoās hands one last time before letting go, wiping his twinās eyes with his hoodie sleeve, āNowĀ pleaseĀ stop crying or youāre going to makeĀ meĀ start crying.āĀ
Leo snorted, examining the otherās now tearing up expression, āI think itās a bit too late for thatā¦āĀ
āGAH!Ā FUHUCK!ā Donnie cursed, wiping his own eyes as the slider laughed loudly at his exclamation.
.

āLeoā¦donāt you think youāre getting a bit tooĀ bigĀ for thisā¦?ā Donatello grumbled as Leonardo was on his lap, getting all nice and comfy as he rested his chin on the olderās shoulder. āNoooope.ā Leo drawed out, making a dramatic popping noise at the end of the 'p', ā'Sides, this is what you get for making me emo earlier.ā
āā¦IĀ saidĀ I wasĀ sorryā¦I didnāt mean to shout at you like that. I was just concernedā¦āĀ
āIĀ knowĀ that, you worrywart. I was just kidding.ā The lime green eyed teen said lovingly, squishing his brother into a tighter embrace. The older let out a short shriek at the hug but of course didnāt mind the other being so clingy.Ā
If the young scientist really and trulyĀ didĀ mind? Leo wouldāve been pushed to the floor by now.Ā
The two twins shared a comfortable silenceā¦wellā¦aĀ semi-comfortableĀ silence.
The purple banded teen feltā¦off.Ā His younger brother had thisā¦lookĀ in his eyes; like he wanted to say something but was afraid of what Donnie would say or how Donnie would react.
Which was so damn dumb Donatello didnāt even know how to explain it.
āā¦Thereās something else on your mind.ā The taller turtle hummed, his suspicions only rising as the other glanced to the side. āUhmā¦no there isnāt.Ā See?Ā This isĀ whyĀ I call you a worrywart.ā Leonardo said, tapping his fingers on his thigh nervously.Ā
Very convincing Leoā¦veryĀ convincing.
āDonāt evenĀ tryĀ lying to me, Leon. My older brotherĀ andĀ twin senses are tingling. You canāt argue against that kind of logic.ā The scientist said matter-of-factly.Ā
āWhat are you,Ā Spiderman?ā The younger snorted.Ā
āWe shall never know.ā The older shrugged, a small smile spreading to his face as he saw the other snort softly at his statement, āNow stop deflecting.Ā Spill.āĀ
āā¦Can youā¦adjust my elbow bracesā¦?ā The red eared slider muttered.
āā¦Why canātĀ youĀ do it?ā The other questioned. Not in a malicious way; he was just genuinely curious.Ā
āI like it when you do it. You make it more firm, y'know?ā The blue banded turtle whined dramatically, āPleeeeeease?ā
āUgh, JesusāĀ fine.Ā But drop the poutā¦you look ridiculous.ā The taller mutant sighed, lightly grabbing his brotherās arm as he readjusted the braces.Ā
The purple banded turtle meticulously took off the otherās left arm brace, tracing his twinās elbow to make sure it was healing correctlyā which the slider couldnāt help but wriggle slightly to.
As the older twin put the brace back on, he looked at the other turtle in complete worry, āā¦Why are you squirming around so much?ā Donatello asked in confusion.Ā
āā¦No reason.ā Leonardo stated, but let out a tiny squeak as Donnie lightly pinched his forearm.Ā
āYohou okayā¦?ā The glasses wielding mutant giggled.Ā Ā
āI-Iām fihine!ā The smaller turtle insisted, covering his mouth as he let out a loud shriek in result to his brother now lightly scribbling his forearm. āEEEEE!Ā P-Plehease moohoove yohour hahahand!!ā The younger sputtered out, hiding his face in the crook of the scientistās neck which the older turtle couldnāt help but let his heart melt to.
āOh.ā Donatello hummed, biting back an amused laugh, āSorry. Sometimes I forget how ticklish you areā¦ā
āSnrtĀ I-IhihiāmĀ nahatĀ ticklish. I juhust donāt wahant your hand thehereā¦āĀ
And isnāt thatĀ quaint.Ā
If Donnie had a penny for every time Leo said heĀ 'wasnāt ticklish',Ā the softshell would be richer thanĀ Elon Musk.
āā¦Right.Ā Soā¦you wouldnāt mind me doingĀ thisĀ then?ā The young genius mused as he scribbled one hand over his twinās ribs. āEEEEHEH!Ā Duhuhude noHOH!!Ā F-Fuhuck yohou!ā The younger twin managed through his small giggles, pushing on his brotherās plastron to try and escape while he still could.
The elder laughed fondly at his little brotherās futile actions, hugging him closer as he lightly tickled him, āNahardo! My brohohother in Christ gehetĀ back hereĀ or youāre gohoing to fahall off of the bed!
āN-NOHO!! LEHET ME GO!ā The lime green eyed teen screeched loudly, kicking his legs and pushing even harder on the otherās plastron, his eyeās widening in panic as his older brother casually lifted him up and pinned his arms above his head, his plastron now facing up on the bed.
Eugh boyā¦
Donnie grinned, sitting on the otherās thighs as he wiggled his unoccupied fingers in the air near the sliderās side, āThatās better~!ā
āWAHAIT WAHAHAITĀ snrtĀ PLEHEASE DEEHEE!!ā The red eared slider cried, kicking his legs from underneath the scientist.
If he was going to go downā¦he would atĀ leastĀ go down fighting.Ā
āI havenāt evenĀ touchedĀ you yet, you goofā¦ā The older twin chuckled.Ā
āB-BUHUT YOHOUR GOHOHONNA!āĀ
ā'Gonna'Ā what,Ā exactly?ā
āTihiHICKLE ME!!āĀ
āTickle you?Ā Well, why didnāt you justĀ sayĀ soĀ in the first place?ā Donatello snickered, using his free hand to skitter his fingers along the crookās of the youngerās neck.Ā
The blue banded turtle squealed, shaking his head back in forth whilst scrunching his shoulders, āGAHahaāĀ snrtĀ EEEEHEEHEHĀ oho cohomeĀ snrtĀ OHAHAN!!āĀ
āWhatās wrong, Leo? I thought you said youĀ werenāt ticklish~?ā The older teased.
āSnrtĀ STHDHAHAH! ShuhutĀ UP!Ā IHIāM naHAT!ā The younger shouted, tugging and pulling his arms to try and get his handās free from the otherās grasp. Donnie just laughed softly at the action, wiggling his fingers above his little brotherās stomach.Ā
The lime green eyed teenās eyes widened in panic, thrashing in the hold to try and loosen his brotherās grip but the purple banded turtle did not budge even aĀ smidge.Ā
Leoās laughs became more giddy and loud as he continued to squirm, small squeals and snorts escaping his beak as his twin brotherās hand wentĀ sloooooowlyĀ to his stomach.Ā
āN-NOHO NONONONO DAHAāĀ snrtĀ DOHON!!ā The smaller turtle snorted, hiding his face in the side of his arm which Donnie couldnāt help but giggle to.Ā
The light golden eyed mutant rested his hand on the sliderās plastron, making the younger turtleās laugh raise almost a thousand octaves.Ā
āDOHONāTĀ snrtĀ DOHONāT DOHOHONāTĀ snrtĀ YOU DARE!! YOHOUR SOHOĀ MEEHEEHEEAN!!ā Leonardo whined, hiding deeper into his arm and becoming a giggly flustered mess.
The older twin shook his head fondly at his little brotherās embarrassed state, taking the opportunity to tickle the youngerās stomach while he wasnāt looking.Ā
Leo let out a loud scream, descending into high-pitched cackles as evenĀ louderĀ snorts followed, āHAHAHAHELP!! IHIāMĀ SNRTĀ BEEHEEING SLAHAHAUTERED!!āĀ
āIām quite literally only usingĀ one hand,Ā Nardo. Stop being dramatic.ā The light golden eyed teen mused whilst watching his brother snort and squirm, āAnd here I thoughtĀ IĀ was the dancer of the family. Look at you! Youāre making up a wholeĀ dance routineĀ right now!ā He said as he let go of Leo, crossing his arms in amusement.Ā
āS-ShuhuhutĀ snrtĀ upā¦ā The younger twin wheezed out, hugging his middles as he playfully glared at his purple loving brother.Ā
Then, a lightbulb went on in the scientistās brain, a smug smile spreading to his face, āHmā¦you know, Leeāā
āDohont callĀ snrtĀ me thahat!ā Leo giggly interupted.Ā
āUh-huh.Ā Well, Leeā¦did you know that the underarms are one of theĀ warmestĀ places on the human body?ā The scientist said.Ā
The lime green eyed mutant cocked his head to the side in confusion, āSoho?āĀ
āSooooĀ my hands are cold.Ā VeryĀ cold, in fact. Iād be forever in your debt if you couldāā
āNO! NONOHO WAHAY INĀ HEHELL!Ā G-GOHOĀ AWAHAHAY!ā Leo squealed, reaching for his brotherās wrists as the elder tried to tickle his neck once again.
Sighā¦Leonardo made this too damnĀ easyĀ sometimes.
The glasses wielding teen wasnāt just going to miss thisĀ oh-so-definetly-not-plannedĀ opportunity! The softshell scribbled his fingers along the sliderās underarms, making the younger let out a loud squawk as he shot his arms down.Ā
āNAHAH AHAHAHAāĀ snrtĀ GEHET THEHE HEHELL OHAHAāĀ snrtĀ OHOHOUT!!ā Leonardo cried while banging his heels on the bed.Ā
āWhat~?ā Donnie hummed inocently.Ā
āGEHEHET AHAāĀ snrtĀ GEHET. OHOUT. OHOF THEHEHERE!ā
āAweā¦why~?ā
āBEEHEECAUSE IHITāS SOHO BAHAHAD!!!āĀ
āAnd?ā Donnie chuckled, āThat sounds like aĀ youĀ problem, little brother.āĀ
āAHHHAHAāĀ snrtĀ GAHAHADĀ FUHUCK YOHOU!!!ā
āPardonā¦what was that?ā Donnie questioned as he pinched where Leoās hip met his thigh. āN-NONOāĀ snrt NAHAHAH!!Ā I CANāTāĀ snrtĀ PLEHEHEASE IāMĀ snrtĀ SORRY!! I-IHI TAHAHAKE IHIT BAHAHCK!!āĀ
āNahā¦I think Iāll just stayĀ riiiiightĀ here for a bitā¦ā The taller turtle smiled, using both of his hands now to tickle Leo into a laughing and snorting blob.
The younger weakly hit his big brotherās arms, throwing his head back as he squeezed his eyes completely shut.Ā
āā¦And you know what, Lee~?āĀ
āWHAHAHATĀ NOW?!āĀ
āIām feelingā¦kind ofĀ famished.ā The elder mused, his smile almost looking like the signature Jokerās as he saw his younger brotherās face pale.Ā
Leonardo scrambled to sit up, fighting with his brotherās arms as he giggly protested, āPLAHAāĀ snrt PLAHAHEASE!Ā PLEHEASEĀ snrtĀ D-DOHONāT!!āĀ
Donnie pinched his brotherās thighs unforgivingly, āYou should have thought about that before yapping suchĀ illĀ nonsenseĀ about yourself.ā
āWHAHAāĀ snrtĀ WHAHAHAāĀ snrtĀ WHAHAT DIHIDĀ snrtĀ IHIHIĀ snrtĀ EVEN SAHAHAY?!ā The lime green eyed turtle cackled, flapping his hands on the mattress.Ā
It took literallyĀ everythingĀ in the older twin not to coo his baby brotherās adorable actions; instead, he lightly moved Leoās hands away, smiling evily as he lowered his head to the otherās plastron, āYou donāt even know. Guess youĀ reallyĀ want this, huh~?āĀ
The blue banded teen kicked his knees into his brotherās shoulders and shell, throwing his head back in complete hysterics whilst waiting for him complete and utter demise.Ā
The softshell wasted no time blowingĀ raspberriesĀ afterĀ raspberriesĀ in the middle of his youngerās stomach, making sure to move the otherās hands away any time he tried to push at the young geniusā head.Ā
Donnie didnāt feel like getting brain damage after all.
Plus, he had his signature glasses į“
į“É“į“į“į“ŹŹį“ į“į“ on! And those wereĀ trademarkedā¦as you canĀ wonderfullyĀ see.Ā
āGodā¦can youĀ getĀ more ticklish?ā Donatello giggled, squeezing and squishing the red eared sliderās knees with one hand and scribbling his sides with the other whilst contuinung to raspberry Leoās stomach.Ā
āDEEHEE DEEHEEHEEĀ SNRTĀ PLEHEHEASE!!!Ā IHIĀ SNRTĀ DAHAHAHāĀ SNRTĀ DAHAāĀ SNRTĀ DAHUNNO!!ā The smaller turtle screamed, happy stimming with his arms on the taller twinās shoulder.
Donnie couldnāt help but chuckle, deciding to show his twin aĀ tad bitĀ of mercy as he nibbled his stomach lightly.Ā
The slider let out bloody murder from his beak, happy tears threatening to fall from his eyes as his bubbly cackles and snorts bounced off the walls of his room.
āJeezā¦I think Peppa Pig has some competition, huh~?ā The light golden eyed mutant snickered.

Donnie x reader
Unexpected
(( hurt >> fluff. ))
"These look great Donnie- With these plans the new route you came up with may just be a tad bit easier to navigate. Less of shredders army of zombie mutants."
At your words, The faintest smile makes it way onto Donnie's face.
It'd been some time since you'd even seen a genuine smile on his face.
Not since the apocalypse had practically shook New York.
You draw in a breath as you shift from one foot to the other as anxiety begins to creep it's way up your spine.
For the first time in nearly five weeks now, You two were finally talking.
You should be happy.
After all, it should've meant that maybe just maybe there was still hope to salvage the both of your relationship together.
But that thought was immediately snuffed out by the negative thoughts nagging at the back of your brain- Of just how the turtle may wind up never speaking to you again.
Still, you had to try.
"Don look... I know with everything that has happened... Mikey falling into a coma, Leonardo losing a arm and Raph nearly becoming zombified in the process..."
At your words, A realization seems to dawn on the turtle and almost immediately he's spinning around in his chair to face the scattered papers in front of him.
"Y/n, Now really isn't a good time."
"Please Don just listen to what I have to say-"
"I'm really busy."
"I understand that but if I could just-"
The loud slam of Donnie's hand hitting the metal desk has you practically jumping backwards in alarm.
Tears prick at the corner of your eyes but you will yourself to be strong.
With a intake of shaky breath you manage to voice your frustrations.
"You have no right to be pissed off at me Donnie. I respect your decision to break up-"
The turtle begins to make a sound of protest or maybe to agrue with you.
But you only ignore him and contuine.
"I think you forget that Mikey, Leo, and raph are my family too. Fuck I'm just as upset as you are."
You find yourself pausing- Uncertain of how exactly go about what to say next.
But with the anxiety weighing heavy on your shoulders, You find yourself shrinking into yourself.
You couldn't get out with it.
It'd only make things worse for Donnie.
"...I...This is a bad time. You are right. Sorry for bothering you."
Now with the loss of your confidence, you find yourself turning around and trying to hurry out of the lab before you can fully break into tears.
But before you can even reach the exit, A hand reaches out for yours.
"Wait. Wait..."
Donnie seems to finally take notice that you aren't yourself.
And maybe you haven't been in weeks and he just didn't care enough to notice.
With the turtle now moving to stand in front of you, He draws in a breath.
"I'm being the real asshole here. I'm sorry. Please, Tell me what you were trying to say?"
You pull away from Donnie as frustration bubbles up to the surface and without another word your reaching into your pocket and practically shoving the three pink sticks into his hands.
The tears are soon blurring your vision and any frustration you feel toward the turtle is out the window.
You try stepping past Donnie only for the turtle to mirror your movements with a look on his face you can't quite place.
"Your pregnant."
He stares almost in disbelief at the pregnancy stick in front of him.
"This... Your actually serious."
You give a nod not trusting yourself to speak just yet.
Donnie sets the pregnancy sticks down.
"I... I didn't know. Y/n I'm-"
"It's fine. I'll handle it on my own and you won't have to worry, Don. Because I know your busy, I know and I don't want to- Don't want to..."
The tears that streak down your face have Donnie practically freezing in place and his heart clenches at the sight.
"Let's sit down. Come on."
He gently coaxes and leds you to the couch.
Donnie reaches for your hands but pauses uncertainly.
There's no time for overthinking, As your reaching out for a hug from the turtle despite everything that'd happened between the two of you.
With a hand running soothingly along your back, He holds you just a bit tighter.
He'd missed you so much. And internally he's kicking himself for being such a idiot.
A silence seems to envelope
the lab and patiently Donnie waits for your sniffling to subside.
It takes time for you to fully calm down.
But he doesn't mind.
After all, you were worth it.
With gentle hands, He carefully cups your face.
"It'll take a lot of hard work from the both of us... But,"
A hand reaches down to brush against your stomach and for a brief moment you swear you can see a look of warmth flash in Donnie's eyes.
"I'm more then willing to put in the effort for the both of you.
You're both worth it. I'm not going to leave your side."
You look into Donnie's eyes wanting to silently hold him to that promise.
"... I know that we have a lot to talk through. But I want to be here for you especially now, Y/n."
With a intake of breath, You reach out to grasp Donnie's hands in yours.
"Then let's take it step by step. Slowly."
Donnie gives a nod at your words before letting out a sigh of relief smiling softly.
There's a brief pause then,
".... I know where Mikey stashes the chocolate,"
He presses a kiss to your forehead before standing up.
"I'll be right back. Why don't you find us a movie to watch?"
"m'kay. Don't keep me waiting too long."
The turtle sends a wink your way before exiting the lab altogether.
While there was much to talk about and things that still needed to be mended, for now this was a good first step toward fixing the both of your relationship.
That was enough for you.

sorry to bother you with yet another Kendra brainwashing au question but what happens when the mad dogs finally do cross paths with the Purple Dragons and see what they've done to Donnie
Theyāll have to retreat. Kendra almost immediately unleashes Donnieās powers on them, in order to quickly finish the job sheās brought him on. And theyāre all left with even more questions than when they didnāt even know Donnieās whereabouts. Leo grabs Mikey, and Raph, grabs April, who are only just catching up when Donnieās attack starts.
Also sorry to anon that I dropped this right as you asked if you could write their reunion! I just got inspired š
š but I would still love to read it, even if itās not the same as this!! šš

Gravity (Part 2)
This may be becoming a thing. There will be at least one more chapter and I have no idea what to call this thing. Maybe by the end I'll know. š
Gn reader x Raphael
Warnings: Hypothermia, language (but I think that's a given in a Raph fic?)
Part 1 Part 3
It had been one week. One week since he'd slipped. One week since the fever carried him to your rooftop.
You haven't spoken. More specifically, he hasn't spoken. Apart from texting you when he made it home like you insisted he did every night, it had been radio silence. You texted him before his patrol like you always did, and he stared at his phone, expressionless, before putting it back in his pocket.
What could he say?
He'd already had the conversation a thousand times in his head, and as far as he was concerned, it didn't need to be said. He didn't need you to let him down easy.
Because you'd mean it. Every damn word. You're sorry. He's your best friend. Nothing has to change.
But it would change, there was no way it couldn't. Things were different now.
That night had been the worst of it. He'd left not long after his confession. At that point, just the sound of your voice was enough to make him weep, and he didn't want to make things worse. Not that he thought they could *get* worse.
He made up some excuse about Leo calling it early, and ran.
He was running now, through the freezing rain, a sudden cold snap in the middle of spring, and hoping that between the temperature and the downpour hammering into his coat, he could think about anything else.
It wasn't long before he was considering ditching the coat. It was already soaked through, and weighing him down, which was hard to do.
That gave him pause.
He stopped, ducking under an overhang, and opened his coat, pulling the fabric back to expose his side. He twisted and looked at the small device mounted onto his shell just under his shoulder blade. There was supposed to be a little red light. There wasn't.
Shit.
They each had them. One of the first inventions D had come up with after they'd started doing patrols as kids.
A blizzard had suddenly torn through the city one night, and they were woefully unprepared with only winter coats. The cold dropped their body temperatures, and then them. Splinter had to hunt across the rooftops until he found them, asleep and hypothermic, huddled behind a construction dumpster.
Donnie didn't leave his lab for days. He blamed himself, he should have known the blizzard was coming, that their gear was insufficient, he should have had *some* kind of backup heat supply. No matter how many times his family told him otherwise, it was his fault, and he would never let it happen again.
So he built something to fix it. Raph didn't really get a lot of the specifics, but the overall was that the small devices "converted kinetic energy into heat that was then stored and distributed throughout the inside of their shells." Or, as Raph understands it, as long as you keep moving, you won't die.
One night a few weeks ago, someone had gotten lucky and he had taken a rusted rebar to the chest that had shattered on impact. His regulator had been damaged by the shrapnel, but the weather had already been warming up, and then the season hit and it was forgotten about.
The rain must have been the final nail, only the exterior was watertight. It was dead. He could already feel the cold and damp setting in. He needed to get home. Fast.
He set off, the only sound other than the roar of the rain was the gradually slowing heartbeat that pounded in his ears.
*Fuck* it was cold.
It wasn't long before his waterlogged coat became too much to carry. He ditched it behind an air conditioning unit, and kept moving.
Hailstones felt like bullets as they pelted bare skin, and through the sheets of rain, the haze of cold and exhaustion that had started at the edges was encroaching. It wasn't long before he was too tired to think.
He was moving on pure instinct, without even the presence of mind to pray he could make it somewhere safe. Somewhere in the back of his mind a tiny Leo was lecturing him for not hitting his emergency signal.
He stumbles. He is so, so tired. The soft darkness of sleep is pulling at him like a rip tide. He drags himself to the next rooftop, barely touching down before he collapses.

Hey so how do you think the 2003 boys would deal with having a s/o who is like āmy sophisticated brain likes *good personality traits of their turtle boyfriend* but then my monkey brain goes nuts for a guy who can throw a heavy axe into a treeā basically complimenting their boyfriend for their personality, but then they feel hot under the collar whenever their boyfriend wields weapons and do martial arts. During fights, tournaments or the sparring, when not joining in, on the slide lines s/o starts fanning themselves sometimes with a fan that seems to have come from nowhere while being like āoooo youāre so good! Keep going sweetie!!ā?
Oh hell yeah, can do! Sorry it took so long! š
Attracted By Their Fighting
š¢šā¤ļø2003 TMNT x Readeršš§”š¢
Word Count: 643
CW: Gender-neutral reader, reader loving a good brawl, just general headcanons, written on separate days so it may seem a little more off-flow I suppose? I hope you enjoy either way!
š¢šLeonardošš¢
š Leo was just doing some training by himself, trying to perfect some moves that he was learning this week, and you sat there watching him, mostly for the first time. Itād probably be a little later into the relationship when he felt comfortable enough for you to watch him. He felt your eyes basically burning holes through him, eyeing him quite intensely.
š He looked back and noticed your red cheeks and was rather confused, likeā¦ Huh? Asked if youāre okay, and you shake away from your thoughts going, āJust like watching you practice, keep going baby!ā Itāll eventually click with him that youāre attracted to him fighting, and he feels rather flustered by it. Feels oddly motivated by your attraction to his training and honestly shows off more.
š Ends up perfecting the move with you cheering him on and looks back at you with a big smile. He ends up inviting you to more of his training and sparring sessions, he doesnāt particularly like you being near any real fights that heās taking on, it's more of a no-go with him.
š¢ā¤ļøRaphaelā¤ļøš¢
ā¤ļø When you saw Raph fighting, you felt something strange within you. A little flustered by the way heās handling these Foot soldiersā¦ A strange occurrence, but you couldnāt help but hyperfixate on those little grunts that left his lips, the sweat rolling off his skin, and the way his muscles flexed whenever he moved, you were absolutely hypnotized by it all.
ā¤ļø You fan yourself when you felt your cheeks burn, and when he approached you, he asked about why you were so red. Does not take long for it to click with him that you were getting all flustered by him fighting and the way he was using his strength on those Foot soldiers.
ā¤ļø Will tease the ever loving shit out of you for this, this man is MEAN. He will continue to tease you and hold this over your head about it. Would definitely use it against you too when he wants something, like say youāre denying him because you think itās funny, not gonna last long when he brings up you know what.
š¢šDonatellošš¢
š Donnie doesnāt realize for a long time about your attraction to him fighting. He simply just thinks that youāre cheering him on, and thatās all he really wants to be honest. He loves having himself a little cheerleader whoās pushing him forward with words of encouragement.
š He will continue to think that itās just you being super supportive. Itās really up to you if you tell him. He will remain blissfully unaware for a long whileā¦ Until you do tell him.
š Ohā¦ Oh. Thatās why you get so excited by his fighting?? You really find it hot?? Oh wow, he did not expect that. But he kinda likes it. Definitely shows off more and always glances back to see if youāre watching anytime heās fighting, seeing if youāre watching, and you are. Youāre watching rather intensely.
š¢š§”Michelangeloš§”š¢
š§” Mikeyās honestly surprised, but he knows somethings up when youāre acting all shy and flustered after a good fight. Heās definitely nosy about it too, he will poke and prod until you tell him whatās up.
š§” Until you finally get annoyed and tell him, and then heās all shocked, like woah. Really? You find it hot while heās fighting?! Heās gonna do it more. Oh heās so gonna show off more, he even takes on fights his brothers are fighting, (which his brothers are confused as hell for why heās taking their fights but okay).
š§” After every fight, he flirts with you going like, āWas that hot or what, babe?ā While giving that cheeky ass grin, heās a little stinker. Overall, a huge ego boost, but please donāt let him overdo it because he WILL definitely overdo it and will most definitely get hurt, man does not know when to stop.

Hi! So. Iāve been reading your Sep Au, (IVE BEEN FANNING OVER IT LIKE CRAZY YOU HAVE NO IDEA, ahem) and have a bit of a small question. (Side note, this is sort of a ramble of possibilities and questions so bare with me š
)
Big Mama. Does she ever interact with Draxum or the turtles? (Not including Donnie yet haha) Knowing her and Draxum, they donāt really get along, BUT she might have made a deal at some point with Draxum and letās say he mightāve sent the boys to collect it at some point or just overall do her a favor or something like that, what do they think of her?
Do they hate her or have mutual respect for what she does? I mean it is said that she doesnāt really like humans as much and she does run a pretty successful business with her Battle Nexus.
Speaking of Big Mama too, Venus.
Do the boys ever end up meeting her early on with Draxum? Or is it similar to the canon version of how they met. (The recent comic)
Anyways, feel free to answer but if you already have feel free to ignore this ask. Have a nice day (or night) and remember to drink water and get some sleep! šš¼
I'm so glad you like the AU! :D
So Draxum is very aware that Big Mama can and will kidnap his sons and put them in the Battle Nexus if she gets the chance considering how capable fighters they are. And GOD FORBID she finds out that they're related to LOU JITSU, that's just asking for trouble! Point is, Draxum makes sure to keep the turtles far away from her because he knows how dangerous she can be. They do, on occasion, conduct some business (like with that mystic train in the season 1 finale) so it's possible the turtles have met Big Mama on those occasions. But Draxum never sends them to do any business with her on their own, he's always the one doing the negotiating and the turtles will at most only accompany him.
Big Mama is essentially a mafia boss, and she's well known to be manipulative and shady, so the turtles don't exactly have the highest opinion of her. They don't hate her really, but they also don't like her. They definitely don't trust her.
But when it comes to the secret siblings, I was never planning on including them in the AU, and as excited as the Big Mama's Assistant face-reveal made me, I'm not planning on changing my mind on that. So uh. Venus or Frida or Jennika or whoever don't exist in this particular AU lol. I feel a bit bad about it because, again, I relaly like Mystery Sister even if we barely know anything about her. But I've been constructing this story around her or any other secret siblings not existing, so I'd have to change too much of the current story to make them fit into the narrative and like ughhhh. So sorry, no Mystery Sister :/

Could you explain more about your faerie tmnt au? (I actually forgot/I don't know how to spell it), I'm kind of lost, like, why shouldn't Donnie and Mikey be given Uranus and fire? And from what I understand, Mikey doesn't have a "job", could you explain that to me? I'm from Brazil and I don't understand much English, I basically live off Google Translate, and I think it's better not to blow up my gallery with images (seriously, I have 50 images just from this au, and I haven't even finished looking at everything, my cell phone isn't very good), I appreciate your attention in advance already! :3
Hello! Of course, I'll do my best to answer your questions :)
The "Donnie shouldn't be given uranium" line is a joke! I believe it's a reference to the show, where Donnie acts kind of crazy about getting uranium for his tech!
I can't explain why Mikey shouldn't be given fire at the moment, as it's a spoiler for the story.
When I mention Mikey not having a "job", it's referring to the jobs that fairies have in the Tinkerbell/Pixie Hollow universe! All fairies have jobs that are specific to their talents! However, in this au, Mikey no longer has a job for certain reasons. I can't elaborate on why he lost his job right now, but I hope that explained it a little better!
Sorry about your phone gallery š
I've posted a lot about this au, so I can see why it would be overwhelming to go through everything. If you have any other questions, please let me know! š

Anon from before who asked about the request! So happy to hear youāre interested Iām so excited!! I canāt remember if there is a word limit to asks so I may have to send this in two parts. Iāll refer to future Leo as F!Leo and regular Leo as just LeoĀ
So the request is inspired by that one shot you did were Future Leo (rip-) ends up in the past and sees his younger s/o, yelling at his younger self to cherish them before theyāre goneĀ
That request? *chefs kiss* mwah, le magnifique~
So a what if idea for a bittersweet contention!Ā
So F!Leo is stuck at the lair while the bros are out patrolling, itās been a while since F!Leo ran into his s/oās younger self, and heās adamant on not letting it happen again. Itās easier for everyone that wayā¦but then his s/o shows up at the lair, looking for younger him. Heās panicked, naturally, but eventually his younger s/o stumbles into him (itās not like F!Leo had anywhere else to hide aside from the lair anyway). F!Leo speaks in short sentences to his younger s/o as they try to make small talk while making some tea, saying they can just wait for the boys to get back (to F!Leoās slight, very mild annoyance)Ā
F!Leo is trying to be polite, but the lasting sting is still there
The sting that tells him yes, this is his darling, but itās not HIS darling. His darling died to the Kraang, he let them down. This alternate version of her wasnāt his. His s/o was gone, nothing was going to bring her back.Ā
While Leo is showing off at nothing, his younger s/o ends up burning themselves with the hot water, having been distracted. Instantly, F!Leo is up out of his chair and making a beeline to them. Heās carefully inspecting their hand, assuring that itās not a serious burn, and careful getting them a wet flannel
Thereās a beat of awkward silence as F!Leo focuses intently on his younger s/oās hand to avoid looking at their face, meanwhile, his s/o shifts uncomfortablyā¦.but F!Leo has his attention on them when they nervously speak up āDo youā¦not like me, or something?āĀ
Before F!Leo can even say anything, in a desperate, nervous tone, his s/o could reply with soemthing along the lines ofĀ
āI mean- itās just, ever since we met it..it just feels like youāve been avoiding me? Whenever I come round youāre always so quite, a-and whenever I talk to you itās like,Ā Ā I dunno, you always try to use as few words as possible? Yet when you talk with the others, you seem fineāĀ
His s/o would then go on to ask if they did something to upset him, or if in in his timeline she did something bad. All the while F!Leo is just sat there, stunned, because he made his younger s/o feel like they where doing something *wrong?*
Maybe for a fluffy/happy ending it could be wrapped up with F!Leo admitting that - in his timeline - he messed up the lives of so many people (due to the Kraang war). I doubt heād admit his s/o died in his timeline, but he still has a sad, broken expression on his face as he recalls the day he lost them, HIS s/o.Ā
But then, before he can start crying, his younger s/o places her hand on his arm and says something reassuring? Maybe how no matter how messy things might have been, if she got to spend a messy future with Leo, theyād be happyĀ
Anywho sorry this is SUPER long plz take your time and no worries if you donāt wanna do this one since I know the FUture Leo post was a while ago!Ā
äøāTimelinećć»ćć»
authorās notes: anon lemme just say, you are most definitely a writer, likeeee i hope you have a writer blog š phenomenal!! this may be a tad more sad than u wanted š
warnings: angst, fluff, unedited, flashbacks, mentions of death?
The work we are discussing ā
ā Blast From the Past ā
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
This was uncharted territory. Which of course shouldnāt be a big deal to Leo. Not after dealing with Yokai or the Hidden City. Weird shit happens down there all the time. Mysticism is something that no one really understands. (Which drove Donnie crazy) And letās not forget about the organized crime, like the Foot Clan. Or literal aliens escaping from a prison dimension.
No Manās Land should be right up Leoās alley with a track record like that. He should be used to the weird, to the abnormal.
But even with the worldās fate suddenly thrust into his hands, Leo may pick that over getting thrown back into the past. Or a different timeline. Whatever. See! Itās already getting confusing.
Alas fate doesnāt give two shits as to what Leo would rather choose. So here he is, six months later after being dropped 40 years back in time. Back before he royally screwed everything up for everyone. It was heavy at first. The burden of not repeating the same mistake twice. With that out of the way, Kraang imprisoned once again, Leo felt like his purpose was complete.
That was why he got sent back wasnāt it? To right his wrongs. Shouldnāt he have gone up in a cloud of dust? Or a portal shouldāve opened up for him to waltz into?! Needless to say none of that happened. So heās still here, with a bunch of teenagers and his dad and April. All alive and healthy and happy.
Talk about a culture shock. Leo could eat good food again. Go to sleep with both eyes closed. Or well, try to. Old habits die hard. He tries to keep to himself for the most part. There is this weird sense of dĆ©jĆ vu that happens when he runs into anyone from this timeline. Over time the feeling has faded, especially to those who he canāt really avoid. All the brothers check in on him regularly. Leon, (his younger self) begrudgingly does so.
Ever since they had that little spat Leon maintains a certain distance which is perfectly fine with Leo. Boundaries are good. Leo feels safe for the most part in the lair.
That is until you come in. Leo wouldāve heard you coming if he hadnāt had headphones on. A luxury that he lost in his own timeline. He missed music. Reading comics. So he thoroughly enjoys all of those things now.
His hearing is a bit impaired due to yāknow a war lifestyle. Gunshots and laser canons and all the other weapons Donnie could piece together took their toll overtime. So when he listens to music he has to turn it up pretty high. (Which he wouldāve done anyhow).
Leo sits motionless in Dadās recliner, eyes wide as he watches you shake your umbrella. Itās obviously raining topside. Little water droplets hit the cement floor. Like your umbrella, you arenāt exactly dry either.
You havenāt noticed him yet. Leo hasnāt seen you since the very first time. Back on the rooftops when he used to patrol with the boys. You havenāt changed a bit, and that nostalgic feeling takes over. He sees you and your future self. The way you move, the way you groan in dismay at the tears in your umbrella. How you run your fingers through your damp hair. Itās all so achingly familiar.
Maybe he can make a quick portal getaway. Maybe youāll never have to know he was here. Maybe if he doesnāt move, doesnāt breathe, you wonāt see him.
But as you sigh and place the umbrella propped up to dry, you finally check your surroundings. Your own eyes widening before a smile graces your face. Itās more than he deserves. He wishes he could smile back. But his mouth doesnāt move, in fact it feels like he ate sand. Itās dry and uncomfortable. Heās uncomfortable.
He watches on as you begin to speak. The older version of yourself still right beside you, doing the same thing. Mimicking. Leo swallows as he schools his features and tugs the headphones down to hang around his neck.
āW-what was that?ā He asks, clearing his throat after the words come out a bit stilted.
āI hadnāt realized anyone was home! It sure is pouring down and I happened to be nearby when the wind suddenly ramped up andāā You point over to your damaged umbrella.
āThe darn thing couldnāt handle the weather! So I decided to come take refuge here until it dies down.ā You pause for a moment. Then continue.
āI called Donnie after getting past the manhole cover. Something about a day in the Hidden City..?ā
Leo nods.
You shift your weight. Still standing by the entrance. A bead of rainwater slowly making its way from your hairline, down your cheek, to your jaw. āSo I guess they wonāt be back til later!ā You add on.
āYeah,ā is all Leo can think to say.
He doesnāt want to talk to you. Well he does. But he knows he shouldnāt. He really really shouldnāt. Itās a bad idea for multiple reasons. Even if you already know heās from the future and all that drama. The less you know the better.
And yet, he canāt help but notice how youāre starting to shiver. His tongue clicks inside his mouth. Heāll just get you a blanket. Thatās it! After that heāll go off to his own subway car.
Leo stands, grabbing a throw blanket off the back of the old couch and walks over to you. He offers the blanket, his eyes firmly planted on the ground. Youāre wearing converse, socks that go up to what he would guess is your mid-shin.
Your hand grazes his as you take the blanket. āThank you,ā and thatās all it takes for his eyes to be magnetically drawn upwards. He doesnāt deserve those words. āItās nothing. You should go sitā¦ or whatever! Iāll get out of here-ā Leo is moving as he talks. Already tearing his gaze away, turning his shell towards you. Making for the exit. To go to his room and hide.
āDonāt go!ā You call out to stop him. And he does. Immediately he stills. His shoulders tense as he closes his eyes. DĆ©jĆ vu. Youāve said that before. In the future...in his timeline. So many times.
āLeo donāt go, we can last a little while longer on the supplies we have.ā
āThe longer we wait the more dire of a situation itāll be later on, donāt worry Iāll be back, Iāll be safe,ā
āPlease donāt go! This mission is impossible!ā
āItās not impossible Donnie ran the numbers and our chances arenāt zero, not trying at all makes it impossible hermosa, donāt worry Iāll be back, Iāll be safe,ā
āY/N?! Nononono. Cāmon not like this. You canāt leave me. Youāre the one always saying donāt go. So you canāt go either! Donāt go, donāt go, donāt go, please donāt go!
āLeo?ā You say softly. He mustāve missed the sound of your footfalls. Because your voice is right behind him. Next to him once more. āOkay,ā he sighs after a moment. He turns to see you bundled up in the blanket and squashes down the complicated feelings that try to bubble to the surface.
āLetās go to the kitchen, Splinter has tea right? Or should I try for the hot chocolate stash?ā Leo wonders if these questions are purposefully asked to get him to answer. Thankfully you just keep on talking. You grab onto one of his fingers, and gently pull for him to follow.
So he does, into the kitchen you both go. You tug him towards a stool, where he sits as you get busy. Chatting away about different kinds of tea. How it isnāt your preferred drink but itās sure to warm you up. Asking what his own favorite is to which he shrugs. Leoās decided nonverbal is the hill he wants to die on.
You keep on talking. Wondering aloud how the trip to the Hidden City is for everyone. Leo has a feeling that if everyone split up like last time, itās probably just as hectic as before. Nothing ever goes as planned down in that city.
āThe future mustāve been roughā¦ā
Leo blinks, as looks over at you. Youāre leaning your back against the countertop. Next to the stove where a kettle has been placed on the nearest burner. Your arms are crossed and you meet his gaze, you donāt say anything else.
āYeah? What gave it away?ā Leo can only let out a dry chuckle. Attempting at humor and failing miserably. His eyes canāt handle staring at you for too long. So his gaze wanders away, finding the silhouette of your future self once more. He looks away from future you as well. He canāt handle that either.
āI donāt know. Maybe your eyes? Like youāve seen stuffā¦ bad stuff and it haunts you.ā And Leo canāt help but think how perceptive you are. He always felt seen when it came to you. He couldnāt hide for long with you in the room. His good hand squeezes into a fist.
āYeah..?ā His voice is weak in his own ears. Cracking. Fragile. And he smells you. The scent of rainwater and lingering tones from your perfume. They get closer. And he closes his eyes. Because they are filling with tears. He breathes in, and out. Then opens to see you standing before him. Even with his sitting down in the stool heās just a tad bit taller. But he feels so small under your gaze.
āItās okay,ā you whisper. As if you could possibly know. If the boys told you all they knew, that Leo had failed the world, that Kraang had invaded not just New York. That the resistance he led had slowly but surely been picked apart until it was only him left standing. You donāt know what youāre talking about. He knows this, and yet he finds so much comfort in those words.
Maybe because they are coming from you. He doesnāt say anything as his eyes fill with tears once more. And he canāt help but be annoyed at that fact. That all he wants to do is cry around you. He looks up at the overhead light hoping to burn his retinas into submission. That he wonāt cry.
Then he feels you touch his good arm. And he doesnāt flinch. But he stills. Not moving at all. As you slowly get closer, coming to stand in between his legs. And your arms go up around his neck. And you hug him.
Leo is frozen. The light above going a bit fuzzy. A second passes. Two. Three. And Leo thaws as you continue to hold him. His own hands going around your sides, pulling you in impossible closer. His chest starting to heave, tears starting to fall, so he squeezes his eyes shuts and buries his snout into the warmth of your neck.
Itās not exactly the same. Your scent is just slightly different from the you in the future. But he can almost imagine it is you from his timeline. That youāre okay. Telling him that all the things he did, tried to doā
āItās okay Leo,ā your hand is soft as it goes up and down the top part of his shell. Maybe you do know. Maybe his eyes did give it all away. And despite his eyes being shut so tightly, tears still manage to leak out.
āThanksā he croaks into your skin. Allowing himself this one reprieve. Or maybe he just canāt help himself now that youāre here in his arms. He nuzzles his snout into your skin. Just once. His hands tighten around your sides, just once. Before he goes slack and the sound of the kettle is piercing as it squeals. His hands fall away from you, and he leans back in his stool letting you go.
You have tears in your eyes too. Now that he can see your face again. So he gives you a grin, shaking his head. āLike you said, itās okay.ā And he stands, offering you the stool, passing you by to go to the kettle. To finish making your tea.
Leo tells you all his guesses as to what is happening to everyone in the Hidden City. Laughs are shared, and the conversation flows pretty smoothly from then on. April, Dad, and the boys get back not too much later and they regal all of their adventures to you. Every time Leo's guesses are confirmed you can't help but look over at him. A big smile on your face. Tears no more.
That's how you should be, Leo thinks. You should get to be happy in this life. In this timeline. And for the first time ever since he was able to defeat the Kraang. Leo feels hopeful that you will be.

Heyyy I just read the last chapter of shattered glass and Iām so curious:
idk if youāve considered this before or not but did Rise Leo grow up physically??? Since he was in the kraang realm for years is he now taller than Donnie? Do they still consider each other as twins?
Whether or not you answer this in the story, just know that I am a fan of it anyway and I love your writing style fsjsgsj
Hello!! Im sorry lol idk when you sent this in but it definitely took longer than I would have liked to answer š
But yes, Leo did grow a bit! Its not a HUGE height difference because Donnie did also grow since he was there for a year, but theyre all a bit bigger than when they started
The sketch is so cute, ty for making that!! Id say thats probably pretty accurate for the height difference. I might make it a bit smaller but tbh I think yours makes more sense realistically and would work better for the story.

I know it's your story and you are entitled at whatever you want to do with plot,but can i at least ask to for in favor of alleviate the boys' suffering and petition for them to experience the good things about being human? š¤š
Lol donāt worry, youāll have a lull in the pain for a while before I crank the heat up again. (This may be a spoiler to you but like Donnie said he would, he manages to keep down a dose of medicine that alleviates most of his pain, though it doesnāt work for too long.)
Okay but in terms of them having a good time as humans, just hear me out!
One of the main messages I want to convey in this story is that you canāt have it all. They canāt be super human heroās of New York who travel space and time fighting ninjas, robots and everything in between and also get to live a normal human life in a apartment with friends and school. They want to have it all but they canāt.
The reason the beginning was fun and happy is because thatās what you would expect. However many people donāt think deeper than that. They donāt consider the fact that the only reason the turtles can do what they do is because theyāreā¦well super human, mutants. I wanted to write a classic āTMNT becoming humanā story before I displayed the dark truth behind a seemingly lighthearted idea.
So the reason the story gets darker is to show you why they canāt be humans. Not just because fate foretold that they had to stay turtles, but because they understand that all things come with a sacrifice and that they canāt have it all.
So I guess to answer your question, I will have to decline. Sorry :\
As I said though, there will be an eye of the storm amidst the chaos.
Good question! :]

Sup! ITS ME! Did you miss me?
Could i request Donnie x gn Reader
Where Donnie is chilling with reader in his room
And they just talk about random stuff like
- how long was the longest spaghetti noodle ever?
- do you really think my genius mind would even think about such an unsual thing?
ā¦
10m
- 10M?! 5m.
(It was 3,8 m btw)
And they just rumble about stuff, and at some point reader asks donnie if heās alright 'cause he seems really uncomfortable, he replies itās just his Battle shell and reader goes with āYo how much does it weight anyway?ā
- a lot
- for Real?
- wanna try it out?
- youāre asking? Gimme that
And well donnie just gives reader his Battle shell and reader just falls backwards bc of weight of it
Idk ;w;
Hope itās not too long nor specific, and itās not too chaotic <333
And sorry for spam š
Fun Fact Fanatics
Donnie x gn!reader
Warnings: weirdness, fluff, cuddles, short
A/N: This is so funny. I genuinely believe that Donnie likes to look up super weird facts.
Donnie was laying next to you, facing you. Your fingers lightly trailing up and down his shell, his fingers trailing up and down the back of your thigh as it was hooked over his hip.
"Did you know that more than half of the bones in your body are in your hands...?" You mumble, Donnie's eyes close as he hums at this knowledge. "So someone saying they'll break every bone in your body is lying... Or they plan to do some very tedious work."
"Did you know that shrimp's hearts are in their head?" Donnie responds, smiling as he feels one of your hands move to caress the back of his head.
"The longest hotdog is 204 meters..."
"That's almost 670 feet..."
āļ½” ļ¾ļ½”āļøš¾ļ½” ļ¾ļ½”ā
"Does your back or shoulders hurt?" You ask, watching Donnie take his battle shell off. He groaned as it came off, setting it on his hooks. Donnie rolls his shoulders, you could tell it was painful or sore.
"A little, but I'm used to it." Donnie shrugs, his body still a bit stiff. Your thumbs press into the back of his shoulders to relieve the tension.
"How much does that thing weigh anyways?"
"Wanna try it out?"
"Uh, yeah."
Donnie grabbed his battle shell as you turn around. He gently sets it on your back. You almost fall backwards with how heavy it is, not realizing how truly big it was. Donnie quickly catches you, causing both of you to laugh.
"Damn... It really is heavy."

Tricky Feelings
Iāve been on a Leo kick lately, so have a fun lil self indulgent oneshot I made for him lol. If yāall end up liking this, then check out my multi-fandom masterlist which is pinned on my blog! Also- I totally didnāt hide a song reference in here at some point š
giving yāall a mini challenge to find it lmao

Requested?: Not a request
CW: angst to fluff, comfort, mentions of body shaming (body type is unspecified), AFAB reader, brief mention of blood and being cut by a Shuriken on the cheek, playful teasing from Raph, Mikey and Donnie.
Word Count: 2.4k
You were sitting in the lair, curled up into yourself as Master Splinter comforted you. āIām so stupid, Master Splinter.. why did I even think that he would actually like me?ā You sobbed into the shoulder of the only father figure youāve ever had. āY/n, boys are.. dumb. That boy couldnāt see how amazing you are, and therefore, has missed out on such an incredible girl.ā Splinter told you, patting your shoulder.
You and April had known the turtles and their master for months. Both you and April were training to be kunoichi under Splinterās guidance, but you seemed to be more in tune with it than your best friend was.
Originally, you had come down here to take out some frustration by sparring with Raphael, however, he and the other boys were out on a mission when you arrived. So you settled for a therapy session with Splinter, to make up for it. You sniffed and wiped away the tears from your eyes, āThanks, Master Splinter, I really needed that.ā He gave a nod, āIf youād like, we can train to take your mind off of it.ā He suggested, and you snorted but gave a nod, you could use the distraction from your emotions. Of course, Splinter wouldnāt pass up an opportunity to train you.
When the four turtles returned, they found you and Splinter in the dojo, training. They watched with impressed expressions as you focused on dodging the Shuriken that Splinter was aiming at you, per your request that he train you on evading and expecting attacks. He had a feeling that it had to do with what had happened prior to you visiting the lair, but you hadnāt told him what exactly had happened.
Once Splinter had run out of Shuriken to throw, he ended the session, also having noticed his sonsā return home. You nodded and both bowed to each other. āDude! That was awesome!ā Mikey shouted finally as he bounded over to you, making movements and sounds that mimicked what you had been doing. āOh! Dude, Y/n, your cheek is bleeding.ā He said casually, and everyone turned their heads to you, even Splinter was surprised to see that Mikey was right. āOh, guess I didnāt notice..ā you hummed, wiping away the blood but your cheek continued to bleed.
āY/n, Iām sorry, I did not realize that I actually hurt you.ā Splinter spoke as he walked to you with Raph, Leo and Donnie following behind him. They mustāve been telling him how the mission went. āItās okay, Master Splinter, it happens. Besides, I hardly feel it.ā You hummed, but Donnie was already leading you off to his lab so he could patch up your cheek. Once you were out of sight, Leo turned to his dad.
āSo what was Y/n doing here, anyways?ā The leader in blue asked, Splinter shrugged, āThat is not for me to tell, my son.ā And with that, Splinter disappeared into his room. Leo gave an exasperated sigh but decided to check on you and Donnie.
However, he stopped when he saw that Raph and Mikey were standing outside the door, seemingly listening in on the conversation going on. Before he could ask, Raph turned and shushed Leo, grabbing him and telling him to just listen.
āThat guy doesnāt deserve your time of day, Y/n, you shouldnāt worry about him.ā Came Donnieās voice, āBut, I liked him Donnie, and I really thought he liked me back.ā Your response was muffled, almost as if you had your face buried in your hands, trying to keep the tears from flowing again, Leo felt his heart drop at the mention of a guy. āSo youāre gonna let one bad date with a guy affect your view on dating?ā Donnieās voice questioned again.
Inside the lab, you were sat on the table as Donnie disinfected the cut. āNo, well.. maybe, I dunno.ā You sighed, āDonnie, you werenāt thereā¦ he made fun of my body, said extremely mean things and even threw his drink on me.. how do I not let that affect me?ā You questioned, only looking up to see a stunned Donnie and three other very angry looking turtle brothers, even Mikey looked pissed. āUh, how much did you three hear of that?ā You asked, nervously clearing your throat.
āEnough.ā Raph said as he stomped up to you, you shrunk back as you thought he was gonna blow up on you. Instead though, you felt him pull you into a tight hug, and eventually three other pairs of arms joined his. āY/n. Youāre worth so much more than that guy can see.ā Came Leoās voice, you teared up again. āI swear, when I find that guy Iām gonna shove my foot so far up his-ā you smacked Raph on the head, āNo you will not. But, you guys are right, Iāve got all I need right here.ā
Eventually you all separated from the hug and had found yourselves watching Space Heroes in the living area of the lair, you were sat next to Leo.
If Leo was being truthful, his heart was pounding at the feeling of you being so close, his heart had squeezed painfully when heād heard you had gone on a date with another human guy. In all honesty, Leo had a huge crush on you, and his brothers knew it. Raph looked behind him at the two of you and gave his brother a āGet em, tigerā kind of wink, but Leo just shook his head at Raphael. Of all his brothers, Raph was the one who gave Leo the most shit about trying to use Karai as a distraction from his feelings for you. Leo felt bad for being kind of relieved that your date didnāt go well, of course he was angry that you were told those things by that guy, but maybe it was a chance he could use to prove that he was a good choice for you.
Leo heard you yawn next to him, and without thinking he pulled you against him and laid your head on his shoulder. He felt you stiffen for a split second before you relaxed into him and began to fall asleep. Leo looked down at you and his gaze softened at the sight of you with your eyes closed and your head laying on him, your arms wrapped around him in a hug. He was distracted though by the sounds of Raph and Mikey giggling.
He looked at his two brothers and was horrified to see that they were mocking him and you, Raph pretending to be you while Mikey acted as Leo. Then they started making kissy noises, and thatās when Donnie lost it and began to laugh loudly. Rolling his eyes, Leo stood with you in his arms, carefully to not wake you up, however you were already awake and had witnessed his brotherās teasing. In the heat of the moment, you turned Leoās face to look at you and gave him a quick peck to the lips, laughing at his expression when you pulled away.
You laughed even harder, however, at the reaction of his brothers, they were gagging and freaking out. āOH MY GOD, LEOāS GOT COOTIES!!ā Was all you heard from Mikey as Leo took you back to his room, now he definitely needed to know how you truly felt about him.
You let out a small āoofā as Leonardo unceremoniously dropped you onto his mattress, āHey, what was that for?ā You asked sitting up, only to see a flustered and fidgety Leo. This was not something you saw often and you really only remembered him acting this way with Karai when she first came around. āLeo?ā You asked cautiously, as if you were attempting to get a stray to eat from your hand.
āPlease tell me you meant that.ā Was all he said, confusing you. āMeant what, Leo?ā You questioned, and you could see him visibly upset. āThat kiss. Please.. just tell me that meant something to you, like it did to me.ā Leoās gaze was pointed at the ground, he didnāt want to look up at you and see the pity in your eyes as you rejected him. Your eyes widened.
Truth be told, you had the biggest crush on Leo, like almost as big as Donnieās crush on April. But when Leo had began to have his little, very obvious, boy crush on Karai you started pushing those feelings way down because you knew you would never be as cool as her. Trying to ignore the squeeze in your chest each time you heard Leo talk about her didnāt help, so you actively began seeking out an old crush from school in the hopes that you could move on and look where that landed you. Then you found out that Karai was his sister, and that changed everything, but things didnāt go back to how they were. You knew that there would be no way that Leo liked you, you were just some random human girl that was saved by them.
You were snapped out of your thoughts as you heard a choked back sob come from the terrapin in front of you. āL- Leoā¦ I,ā he stopped you before you could continue. āNo, I get it, you were just teasing my brothersā¦ā He mumbled, wiping his tears and attempting to appear unbothered. āThatās not it all, Leonardo!ā You snapped, quickly covering your mouth as you and Leo both looked at each other in shock. You hadnāt used his full name since you guys had first met. āWhat?ā Was all he said.
āI didnāt just do that to tease your brothers, or you.ā You could feel the word vomit coming up your throat, but you were powerless to stop it and in the moment, you needed to get all of it off your chest. āI like you! I have for over two months now, and I didnāt think you would ever like me back so I started ignoring it and pushing it away, thinking that if I didnāt acknowledge my feelings then they would go away. But then Karai showed up, and all you could do was talk about her and how cool she is and I realized that there was no way youād ever like me because I could never be like her and-ā Leo cut you off by grabbing your face and pressing his forehead to yours, staring you in the eyes.
You couldnāt tell what he was thinking, you never could. āI like you too, a lot, and when I heard you had gone on that date, I thought I had lost my chance. But, Iām taking it now because I know that you feel the same way.ā He had said something else but it fell on deaf ears as you were now hyper-focused on how close he was to you, there were just inches between you both.
Leo felt a shiver run down his body as you whispered his name and moved closer, both of your minds were clouded. Leo couldnāt describe what it felt like when he finally closed the distance and kissed you. He swore that it was probably the most amazing feeling in the world, it was nothing like he had imagined before. His hands rested on either side of you, one of his knees propped against the bed while his other foot was planted on the floor, giving him stability. He didnāt really know what to do with his hands.
You were in a similar situation, eventually your hands had found their way around his neck and were twirling the tails of his blue bandanna around them. You had expected his lips to be rough in texture, and while they kind of were, they werenāt nearly as scale like as you anticipated.
The kiss was hesitant, neither of you fully committing until either of you fully relaxed into the kiss. But once you both had relaxed, your movements became more fluid and Leo moved his hands to your hips. The kiss only lasted for a few moments, but to the both of you it felt like minutes as you pulled away to take deep breaths of air.
Neither of you returned for a second kiss, but instead you kept your foreheads together. Leo found comfort in listening to the soft inhales you took to catch your breath. There was so much Leo wanted to say, but he couldnāt find the words to express how he felt.
āThank you.ā He blurted without thinking, what an odd thing to say after your first kiss with a girl, and Leo was mentally cursing himself for that. āFor what?ā You asked with a chuckle that made Leo blush, āWell, uh for everything? For not pushing us away, for keeping our secret, and just.. everything thing youāve done for me and my family. It means so much, especially to me.ā You felt your heart swell with happiness, you couldnāt help the smile that spread across your face.
āYou guys saved my life, itās the least I could do.ā You told him with a soft voice. Leo moved to sit beside you, and this time he was the one who laid his head on your shoulder. āWill you be my girlfriend?ā Leo asked, he was still nervous to ask despite knowing that you would most likely say yes. āOf course, Iād love to be your girlfriend.ā Was your answer, and it made Leoās heart soar with happiness.
He snaked his arms around your waist and easily pulled you into a laying position. You definitely were not used to Leo being this touchy or clingy, however, it was definitely nice to be cuddled up and held close to him. Leo supposed this was what it meant to be touch starved, because oh boy was he now addicted to the fluttery feeling in his stomach that he got each time you gave him a reassuring squeeze.
You lightly traced the scutes of his shell while your head was resting against his plastron. The feeling made Leoās eyes droop and he began to fall asleep. Thankfully, it was a weekend and you wouldnāt have school in the morning, which meant spending the night at the lair would be okay.
Oh boy, Leo is going to kill his brothers when he finds out that they got hundreds of photos of the both of you sleeping together, cuddled up.

Iām glad youāre liking EW!
Iāve started working on the interlude, and thereās a couple parts now up on my patreon. And even more will go up there, before the whole thing gets put up on tumblr. But I did just put up like 30 pages with this last EW update, so I mean, itāll probably not be immediately š
