⚠️Warning: İmplied child abuse and blood⚠️

"Wow, your version of Leonardo is a cocky and egoistical asshole who looks down on the other turtles"

Close, he's actually a 15 year old kid who has been traumatized so badly by his dad that he not only was left believing he's only worth something by achieving stuff and was nothing without his brothers but also began to tell himself his family doesn't and cant Love him because he doesn't believes anyone could be capable of loving the failure left behind by Shredder, So now, he desperately tries to overcome those thoughs by loudness, egoistical acts and a forced jollity, and while he should be hold accountable for messing up, he shouldnt be defined by his worst moments

Anyways this pic is from Leonardo's arc where he got kidnapped and tortured by Shredder, he basically tried to stand up to his "dad" after the order he got almost killed Mikey, he asked Shredder to go back home and said he was tired, which Shredder "kindly" replied by reminding him this was his "real home"
