So cute
Leo: Konnichiwa Méla-chan.
Méla: Ah ! Konnichiwa Leonardo ~
Leo: … You know, you don’t have to call me that.
Méla: What ?
Leo: I noticed I’m the only turtle you don’t call by his nickname. Raph Mikey and Donnie are okay. You even gave them personal nicknames. But not me.
Méla: …
Leo: Is there a reason ?
Méla: U-uhm… Maybe because I respect you more ? I’m sorry, I never noticed before today…
Leo: Don’t worry. I know I look strict and intimidating sometimes since I’m the leader, but you and I are friends, you don’t have to be that respectful with me.
Méla: … *Shyly nods her head* Hai.
Leo: *Smiles* How about you try it now ?
Méla: … Okay…
[Nii-san = big brother]
Leo: !!!
Méla:… Leo ? Daijoubu?
Leo: Y-yes I’m fine. (Kawaii.)

It’s Hawk and Dawn who are singing, but I like to imagine Raph singing instead, since it’s Alan Ritchson the actor. What a voice (and what a man, darn it)

My insomnia kept me up last night, so I took the opportunity to think about new short stories. And, heck, I rarely write for Mikey. WHAT A SHAME. Here’s something cute~ Sorry it’s short.
Reader is gender neutral :)
Keep reading
*It can be about anything and from any iteration.*
Hi everyone! I’ve wanted to know the most common criticisms about the franchise for a while now, so why not ask now.
I believe some of you know that I wrote a post about my own version of the TMNT. One of my strategies for writing it is to read fans fair criticisms and not making the same mistakes as the previous iterations.
I haven’t found a lot so I would like to know what you guys disliked(fill free to say your likes too) about the franchise.
You can talk about characters, plot, etc. from any iteration. Talk about multiple iterations if you want.
Thanks for reading! 😊❤️
Greetings from the woods! I got asked by @spacelaceboy (thank you so much) how April fits in the Mob!AU and, I have to say, that's actually a pretty good question since I haven't really written much about her, BUT I am going to fix this IMMEDIATELY because my girl here needs a whole post of her own. (might or might not contain traces of Casey Jones too?)
so, April
as I said, Splinter used to be her pet when she was a child and she absolutely adored him.
I believe that, at the beginning, she wanted to become a scientist like her father but, once the fire in the lab and (lowkey) all the experiments that she had seen her father do to her poor pets (yes, she considered the four little turtles her pets as well, even though their eggs had been hatched in the lab), she decided against it.
Fast forward to her life as an adult,
April is a journalist, but she hasn't been able to prove herself to the media yet, and she is surrounded by sexist men who enjoy to bring her down way too much for her liking.
She was working on some research about the movements of the Foot Clan when she got wind of this new criminal clan rising, a certain Hamato Clan that was becoming more and more famous and that seemed to have been born out of nothing.
And of course Miss O'Neal, being her curious and nosy self, started to dig deeper into the case
Now, she is an amazing journalist and a very clever woman but she has the tendency to act impulsively and recklessly,
Long story short, she found herself witnessing a sort of weaponry exchange by the docks, and guess who was there
Raphael.
Now, she didn't know it was him (for obvious reasons), but seeing a huge turtle speaking russian with some men by the docks and assessing the weaponry that he was given, it sure was a peculiar sight to witness.
She waited to the side until the deal was concluded and then she followed Raphael and his men.
She saw him get inside a red sport car and she followed with her bike until she spotted the car again outside a quite known betting-house.
She got in, but to welcome her wasn't Raphael,
It was Donatello.
And of course the turtle recognised her, he had seen her on tv, after all.
The first thought he had was that this girl was a journalist sent to find proofs of the criminal business and he couldn't let her walk away after what she could or couldn't have witnessed,
So, he knocked her out and brought her to his little playhouse, where he kept all his precious toys.
Now, the idea was to interrogate her until she told him everythign, but, as mentioned in the previous post, nothing happens without Leonardo's say so.
And at the time Splinter was still alive, so Donnie had to ask him before taking any action
The old rat was MAD once he recieved the call and ordered his son to bring April to his office
And once there, Splinter apologised to her and told her all the story
The girl was too stunned to speak.
eventually she came to terms with it.
Now, (yes, I'm not over, sit back down)
A lot of people would believe that after what happened she wouldn't want to be involved with the whole criminal organisation, at all...
well, I don't.
April Is way too good at finding information and she has the advantage of being difficult to spot because she's human.
And even though Splinter would have preferred to ship her away to some island far away to keep her safe and avoid her involvement, he just couldn't help it,
because April was an adult and she had power and will to do anything she wanted
(and because she can't keep still for the love of her)
It took a while, but eventually she started working for the Clan.
It started very slow,
maybe she would sometimes ask Leo if there was anything she could do to help him or his brothers, but he would always refuse because he, like splinter, didn't feel like put her in situations that might get her in danger... not when she had a normal life to live, differently from them, who didn't have the luxury of a choice.
But she kept asking again,
and again,
and again, not just to him but to all his brothers too
In the end Leo thought that it couldn't be too dangerous for her to pass over some information from the police, also because, according to what they knew, she was currently seeing a certain detective, and she could get some intel from him.
Our girl did much more than that
She not only managed to gather some incredibly helpful information, but she also managed to bring her boyfriend, Casey Jones, to work for the clan so that he could pass the information directly into the higher ups of the criminal organisation.
Everyone was impressed, and even though Splinter didn't want to admit it, he found April to be quite a valuable asset.
So, even though a bit reluctantly on the old rat's side, April started to work for the organisation officially.
She has took a role under Raphael, mostly doing spying work or taking care of accounting and financial stuff that he wasn't very good at or didn't care of doing.
She unofficially also reports to Donnie from time to time if needed.
Splinter basically adopted her (unofficially), and has ever since referred to her as the daughter he never had, and made sure to reserve a quite impotant spot for her in his will.
Speaking of which, saying that April was heartbroken by Splinter's murder is an understatemrnt.
She was hurt and furious. the literal embodyment of women's rage, and had it been for her she would have walked right into the Foot's Headquarters and started a literal massacre,
but Leo stopped her in time to prevent a literal slaughter that would have brought the two clans to begin a war that everyone in the political world wanted to avoid.
But from that moment on April has been much more ruthless and colder than before.
Also, I dont think people mention it enough, but she's older than all four turtles, which she considers her brothers
Again, being fiercely loyal and devoted to both Splinter's legacy and her found family makes her extremely dangerous in the business, as well as a valuable asset that everyone respects and fear.
She's THE scary dog priviledge of the whole Clan
Which says a lot since she is surrounded by four mutant turtles, but somehow she's the scary one.
Oh and she also is very close with Raphael's girlfriend and his daughter.
April literally adores the little girl and has taken her job as badass aunt pretty seriously.
Overall she is just very protective of everyone in the Clan and she will defend the boys with body, mind and soul
But she can and will make sure they understand when they have made a mistake and will make them do anything in their power to fix it.
As mentioned, oldest sibling behaviour.
I made a bot based on my take on MOB!BAYLeonardo- just so you know 💚
Enjoy!
Greetings from the woods!
This is something I’ve been working on for a while but always been unsure on posting. However, I’ve recently understood that we only live once so, why not try this?
Might become a series later on, who knows?
GENERAL
I am taking HUGE inspiration from Jade City and Six of Crows for this part, so stay with me on this.
- I’m team lab experiment. In my view it could very well be kept the way the movie has portrayed them. So, let’s begin with the principle.
- While I can see the turtles being hatched in the lab, I think Splinter wasn’t born there, but rather in a sort of pet shop but his reminiscence on that period in his life has always been kind of blurry. The only thing he remembers is that he was quite old by the time he was bought by a little girl named April and his father, becoming her pet. April has always been loving and careful with Splinter, and that he would always remember.
- At some point April’s father decided to start using Splinter for some of his experiments and that, once more, has been quite a blurry period in the rat’s life.
- The whole ordeal with the lab basically follows the bay!movies quite religiously until a certain point.
- One night, the four brothers ran out of the lair out of curiosity. It was on Halloween, the perfect night for them to get a glimpse of the outer world before being forced back into the sewers. Once out for what should have just been a small stroll out of their home, they all started to find new attraction for the world. The lights, the smells, the taste of the world above the surface was all too much for such small and inexperienced boys; but the most interesting attraction they found was a parade, the classic type you could find in the streets every mystical night of the year, with performers moving from one side to the other of the street. The boys ended up becoming part of it before even realising it. It could have been the best night of their lives, but none of the four boys knew that night would become their turning point.
- But it didn't take much for people to notice that they weren't children in costumes.
- the moment people understood, the boys were assaulted and it took all their willpower and strenght to get out of that situation, crawling back to the lair in tears and with bruises everywhere.
- the worse of them was Raphael, who someone had hit with a broken bottle, leaving a wound on the side of his face. He now has a scar, reminding him of that night.
- Of course, Splinter was furious for his sons' insubordination.
- he gave all four of them a different punishment, something he called the HASHI.
- But the thing is that Splinter learnt quite fast that he and his sons will never be accepted in the world, so he needed to find a way to ensure that, to some degree, his sons would be able to defend themselves. Did he find a book on martial arts in the sewers while sweeping the floor? Absolutely not.
- See, I like to think he came in contact with the Foot Clan by accident, in particular with Shredder.
- Let's say that the man was surveyign some of his men's activity down the docks and walked into splinter gathering food for his sons and himself.
- The man was flabbergasted.
- Now, Shredder isn's stupid. He knew about the experiements Sacks was making in the lab and, seeing a giant rat running around the docks, it doesn't take much for him to put 2 and 2 together.
- So he decides to take that opportunity.
- He approaches Splinter and the two -although with some reluctance on Splinter's side for obvious reasons- start talking.
- Splinter sees right then and there the chance to make himself and his sons not only able to fend themselves, but also a way not to live forever in the sewers.
- It takes a while for him to take a decision but he eventually sides with Shredder, joining the Foot Clan and learning from the man how to deal with a business.
- In a certain way, it was Shredder that introduced Splinter to the world of business.
- He also made sure Splinter and the turtles learnt martial arts
- Shredder is a patient man, after all, he will take what he wants, but he'll make sure that it will be done on his own terms, according to his needs.
- Splinter quickly rises in the organisation, becoming Shredder's collaborator. The old rat would go as far as to say he was friends with the man, much like the 2012 series,
- But I wouldn't be here to tell you this story if it had all ended well, right?
- Splinter finds out about Shredder true plans thanks to Donatello, who had learnt to hack into any computer and database. At first the boy had not understood, after all he had been little more than a hatchling back when he, his borthers and his father had been experimented on.
- but once he shows the rusults of his research to Splinter, boy, the rat is FURIOUS.
- cue fall out with Shredder (that is way too long to write about, but I will in the future. Maybe)
- After that Splinter splits from Shredder.
- His methods, quite different from the leader of the Foot Clan, made many men inside the organisation change their minds and side with him instead than with Shredder.
- So he quickly created his own business, always antagonising Shredder and the Foot.
- Splinter's whole persona changed after that betrayal, he doesn't trust anyone else after that.
- Apart from his sons and April, who he had met once more and with whom he has rebuilt a strong friendship, sometimes even referring to her as the daughter he never had.
- He led the organisation until a certain point before being assassinated by the Foot Clan.
- In his will, he had appointed Leonardo as his heir and successor, which wasn't very unexpected, but in truth the business has been somehow divided between the four brothers, in order to avoid any kind of bad blood between the four brothers.
Leonardo
You’ll never be half the man Splinter was.
- Leo was 15 when Splinter and Shredder had their fall out, at present he's 25 and main Head to the business since the moment Splinter died.
- He was actually the one who _found_ him dead in his office, and he still has nightmares about it.
- He has severe confidence problems because he thinks he'll never live up to the expectations that have been forced upon him, and if someone brings up his father in front of him, he WILL take it as a personal attack.
- His brothers secretly all think he has had it easier because he has always been Splinter's favourite,
- spoiler alert: he hasn’t.
- He had to set the example, being the one the others would look up to, he needed to be a second parent for his siblings, which sometimes led him to act like a dick to each one of them.
- Also, I don't think people point this out enough, but the man has an OCD so terrible he might go insane any moment if something isn't exactly as he wants it to be or if something goes in an unexpected way.
- In his mind, tho, outside he’s perfectly calm and collected.
- He's also the one who will opt for violence as a last resort, because killing isn't really his cup of tea, actually: it's too messy and he doesn’t like the dirty feeling he gets. Like, if a drop of blood falls on his jacket he'll be pissed. He much prefers leaving the reins to Raphael when it comes to it.
- What he DOES do is giving the order. There is nothing in the organisation that happens without his say so.
- Did I mention that he's a control freak?
- Literally nobody moves until he gives his command on an operation, whatever that is.
- He's also kind of spoiled, and he's not used to being told 'no.' He gets what he wants. End of story. And that applies to relationships too.
- Now, listen. He's lowkey the second-top-tear-gangsta-boyfriends, but he will always pick his family over anything or anyone. That is not up for discussions. You okay with it? great. You're not? the door's that way.
- That doesn't mean he doesn’t love, tho.
- I can see him having very few relationships in the past, all of them very serious ones, but he tries his best never to get his s/o into the business, because he knows things will get risky.
- After Splinter's death, he has cut off all ties.
- He can't, for the love of him, fall in love after that. Casual fuck? sure, why not. But love is off the table, because he knows that if he finds himself in the same situation he had been when he had found Splinter's corpse... Let's say that his mental state will only get worse.
Raphael
My kind of rebirth tasted like blood.
- Raphael just turned 25 rn, and while he and Leo can and will most likely bang their heads together in multiple occasions, he doesn’t mind that his brother is the actual lead of the business.
- He just cares to be respected and to be recognized as important in the business.
- He’s responsible for the dealing of weapons and in charge of taking care of the subjects that Leo thinks is right to eliminate for the wellbeing of the business
- Raphael used to have a very conflicted relationship with splinter, being the rebellious child that he is; but when his father died, Raphael developed severe depression and has been on meds for a few years.
- If you name his father, he’ll probably need to start therapy all over again, so please don’t do it.
- Anger issues stayed tho, and if anything, they worsened instead of getting better.
- He argues a lot with Leo when it comes to take action because diplomacy can’t be the solution to everything, sometimes you have to show that you’re stronger than others.
- But sometimes he takes things a bit too personally
- like that time when someone cheated on his brother and he wanted to hang them out the headquarters and kill the bastard who they cheated with in the worse way possible.
- he was told off, but he still managed to get the two involved in a severe accident and send them both to the hospital.
- did I mention that he’s fiercely loyal?
- Among his brothers, this man probably would rather die than betray his family.
- Does that include his s/o? it depends.
- If it comes down to choosing between his s/o or his family, meh…
- Blood runs thicker than water.
- He’s a passionate lover, always present when he needs to be, but it’s most likely that he will have jealous outbursts more times than he’s had breakfast.
- Fact is, he loves. A lot. He’s like a match burning. So either you understand that, and you burn forever, or he’s going to burn too quickly and the relationship dies.
- Now, everyone says that he’s in a toxic relationship
- I think so too, but not in the same way.
- I can see him being with this girl for something like a month or two and then problems starting.
- The thing is that this relationship at this point is hanging by a thread
- a very strong one, actually.
- They have a daughter.
- Raphael is the only one between his brothers to have a child (a legitimate one, at least), and he will kill for his daughter.
- Also, the child was born before Splinter died, and against all odds, he was happy to become grandfather.
- I think that’s important to mention that it’s extremely hard to have children with a mutant, so ofc everyone was happy
- but now he needs to figure out his relationship with the mother of his child
Donatello
Suffering feels religious if you do it right.
- Donnie has just turned 25 but his back feels like he’s 65
- Is actually the one who’s most mad about the succession after Splinter’s death and still feels kind of bitter over it
- responsible for the IS and trafficking of all sorts of information across the organisation and outside of it.
- Expert in hacking but also cyber security so he knows how to attack and defend on computing level
- has contacts all across the globe and can’t be bothered by anyone
- he suffer from severe anxiety but tries his best to keep it under control, no matter the amount of meds or weed that he consumes
- But still he will drink more coffee than water
- He also suffers from severe insomnia (same mate) and honestly? he can’t be bothered about it. (his brothers are trying to make him start an healthy sleeping schedule, tho)
- He had the most fucked up relationship with splinter and he grew up either being ignored or being mistreated, and that only made him lose more of his sanity than his life already had
- apart from Leo, with whom he has quite a conflicted relationship at times, he’s in good terms with Mikey and Raph, especially the latter since they are the “middle twins”
- Donnie is also in charge of the interrogations and torture (if it ever comes to it), but he’s very efficient at both
- As I said, everyone in the family has a twisted mind but he’s kind of the worse
- because he’s grown to be very reclusive of his feelings and so he has to let them out in some kind of way, right?
- Most of all, tho, he worries about the strategical and logical overview of the business and, even though he’s not in the best terms with Leo, he still is his right hand in making decisions that are pivotal to the organisation.
- Remember when I said that Leo is a control freak? this man too
- He also has a tendency to be pessimistic and paranoid so he has cams everywhere that he uses to make sure everything is good and all right.
- Will also do the same in relationships
- he has very low self esteem so he’ll never believe to be good enough for someone and that his s/o will cheat on him first chance they get
- so he takes precautions
- I can also see him being very hard to open up. He’s not shy, he’s just very hard to make him trust someone. He’ll think they want to try to get to him out of something they want and not because they’re really interested in him
- but when you do manage to get inside his ‘inner circle’ (it might take some time) he’s never going to let you go, be aware of that
- Still, the same drill applies to him too: will he ever choose his s/o over his family? unlikely.
- He’s not in a relationship at the moment but he doesn’t mind, he’s way too busy with work and with making sure his brothers stay out of trouble
- 100% has a scheming face (quoting Kaz Brekker)
Michelangelo
This darkness is my light.
- the baby of the family, how adorable
- He’s 24 and might as well be the one people underestimate the most
- He’s in charge of the communication department, and this man is good at what he does. Moves around the internal and external communication like a pro and he’s the top person you want to talk to when you have a problem
- except when he’s not in the right mood.
- This man can change his behavior in a matter of moments. Might be kind and smiling one moment and the next he’s going to hit someone with a hammer
- You have to pray he’s in a good mood if you ever want to ask him something
- The only one who can actually restrain his behavior is Leo. Mikey won’t listen to anyone but him and if you talk shit about his older brother he’s gonna throw fists.
- Don’t ever say anything bad about his family. He will hunt you down and make you regret your life choices.
- He’s the most loyal of his brothers. He will choose his family over and over again and there’s no way someone can make change his mind, no sir.
- He’s devoted to his family and yes, maybe he could make a few mistakes because he’s chatty most of the time, but he’ll make sure to fix everything to protect his brothers
- also he’s very protective
- He has ADHD and a dissociative personality disorder.
- He’s currently going to therapy but it’s not really helping, at least, that’s what he says
- he also likes gambling, he think he’s some kind of god of gamble. Legit.
-Has 100% played russian roulette or the knife game at least once
- He had a strange relationship with Splinter.
- His father loved him, and being the little one of the family clearly made him more in need of reassurance and affection, especially from his father
- But he also was overlooked quite a lot, at least by Splinter
- hence Leo becoming a sort of second father figure to him
- So while Leo is daddy’s boy, Mikey is his brothers’ boy
- Hence him being very protective of his older brothers
- Mikey has a lot of friends, like, A LOT.
- he knows how to read people and he knows how to manipulate them in the best way
- Be ready because this man takes pride in how well he can terrify someone or make them love him
- as about relationships,
- he suffers from erotomania (a form of delusional disorder in which an individual believes that another person is in love with them), so he’s being deluded one too many times but he’s had a bit of practice.
- He falls in love easily and hard, so he happens to often find his heartbroken because he can’t tell when someone is after him or after his money
- hence his brothers trying to teach him how to understand when someone is genuine or not
- he’s still learning

Okay, this was a request I'm sorry this took so long, between everything and the small writer slump I've been going through... I am happy to finally get something out to you all. HAPPY NEW YEAR BTW... okay and I did a pole on my Tumbler for who gets the girl... ya'll are ruthless... like actually. Mavuikaaa shouts out to them for the request!!!! Cheating, cursing, Abusive relationship, sex... yeah they said sad so...) OOC RAPH! (I think nearly all the boys would be at least decent boyfriends... but for the sake of it all...)
(It takes a few months after they've been dating... and after the Out of the Shadow movie [that wasn't relevant last chap but it is in this one]
Y/n sat quietly on the couch, crocheting a small turtle to match the plush Raph had made for her. She was waiting for him to return, and after an argument with Leo, he left to blow off some steam... she'd be waiting a while. "Where do you think he's at?" A soft but stern voice called out, increasing in volume as the figure walked out of the Dojo. Y/n glanced up and softly smiled at her best friend. Leo stood in the doorway, sweat dripping down his form and his katakanas snuggling on his back.
"The gym or rooftop," truth was... she had no idea where he was. He had a habit of just getting up and leaving, not telling anyone where he was going or when he'd return. It had worsened in recent weeks, but she simply brushed it off as his usual attitude. Having been with Raph for a little over a couple months, she was still in the honeymoon phase. Rose-colored lens and a mindset that he could do no wrong. The perfect... man. However, Leo could see right through that. He'd seen Raph leave her waiting one too many times. He has seen him walk out of the room while they were making love... leaving Y/n sitting on the bed... Cold... Lonely... Unsatisfied. But yet, she never moved... simply waiting for him to return. He'd watch Raph leave on their date night, checking his phone before making up an excuse to head to the surface... Again leaving Y/n dolled up... in the lair... once again... waiting.
'He's...no,' Leo shook the ideas out of his head... deciding to join Y/n on the couch. Gently sitting on the cochin next to her, watching as her delicate hands gently held the thread and hook, pulling it through and repeating... He watched the way her tongue was stuck out in concentration... 'Oh, if you were my girl... I'd never keep you waiting He chuckled to himself... kicking himself for allowing his brother to take her... especially watching her now.
"Leo..." Her voice was soft... almost fragile. One he wasn't expecting, completely contradicting the smile on her face. "do... do you think... he found someone else?" Her question... unfortunately didn't surprise him, in fact... he and she were both on the same page as usual.
"I..." He silenced himself...hearing the rev of Raph's bike entering the garage of the lair. "later... we can talk later," He sighed, getting up off the couch to move seats, knowing Raph would be pissy if he caught him so close to her.
"I'M HOME!" His voice... was booming, echoing through the lair... but what startled Leo the most... was the way Y/n jumped, not at the volume... no... at the voice itself. His voice.
"HI BABE!" Y/n called, getting up to greet her green boyfriend at the living room entrance. She smiled softly at him, the yarn clenched tightly in her hands, the small turtle suffocating from her grasp.
"Oh, hey Y/n," His voice held no excitement... no acknowledgment... no love. It was just... as if he was talking to a wall or toy. "Could you go make me something, I'm starving!" The way she flinched... the way she moved without question... she had lost the subtle relaxed energy she had moments ago... the moment he walked in.
"R-right... Absolutely!" Setting down the craft, she made quick way to the Kitchen. Leo... hated what he was seeing, she wasn't a housewife... to return after hours of being gone... and to demand food... No hug? No kiss? No Hi, love?
"Leo..." Raph gave a subtle nod to his older brother before following close behind her.
"Raph..." Leo could only stare... watching... waiting... Analyzing his brother... 'why? Why so cold? Why so distant? Why so... human-like?' He sat there for a moment, just listening to them softly talking in the kitchen. Not loud enough for him to hear... but enough for him to know... they were arguing. The muffed sounds of Raph huffing and grunting... responding with sorry or don't question me. He couldn't stop himself from slowly approaching, peaking around the corner, watching as Y/n shuffled around the Kitchen, glass plate in hand, heating up the leftovers from last night's pot roast. Upon closer inspection... it wasn't just any glass plate. Of course not, Raph only ate off his limited-edition Batman cutlery.
Oh, and Leo watched it in slow motion... the way her foot caught the edge of the carpet, something Donnie was supposed to fix ages ago, how she gasped, how her eyes zeroed in on the plate... that was following in front of her. Watched how she reached out to catch it, neglecting her own safety, allowing her jaw to harshly hit the ground while she barely missed the plate... he watched as it shattered... glass flying, digging into her hands and scattering across the tile. He watched as tears gathered in her eyes... staring at the plate... then glancing back at the hulking figure that sat still on the bar stool.
"AH!" Y/n's voice shattered whatever concentration he had, making a quick move to attend to her... but he halted... the look on her face... the way her pupils dilated in fear. How her breath slowed as reality slowly soaked in.
"DAMN IT Y/N!" Raph's voice was... full of rage. Not the way one should speak when their lover had just been hurt. Leo didn't move, he wanted... no he needed to see how this played out. He watched as Raph got up, practically stepping over Y/n reaching down to pick up the pieces of his shattered collectible. "YOU FUCKIN BROKE IT!" He roared, reaching for another piece, holding them, trying to piece them back together.
"Ah! I'm so sorry! I-I'll find you another one!" Using her glass and soaked hands to push herself up off the ground... she again, neglected herself to tend to him, Leo watched as she only slightly winced while doing so... simply shaking her head and standing to peer over Raphs shoulder.
Raph snorted in disbelief, "Oh really? How do you expect to do that huh?" His voice was... deep... rough... angry... "HUH?" Jetting up to full height, his shell made contact with her jaw as he stood. Now towering over the mess and her. "Only a few were ever made... SO HOW!" Y/n groaned softly from the pain... wiping the bit of blood that dripped from her lip due to her biting it.
"M-maybe I can fix it!" Now bouncing up herself, she stared up at him. His looming figure took steps closer to her... causing her to take steps back, one, two, three, four...until she met the counter... pinning her under him. She knew she couldn't fight back... not against him... not enough to protect herself if he had a lash out... again. "R-Raph, You're scaring me... please," Her soft whimper as Raph tightly gripped her upper arm caused Leo to act. Moving quickly and swiftly, he tightly gripped Raphs forearm...a warning glare in his eyes.
"Let... Her... Go!" His voice was stern, venomous... When he felt Raphs grip only tighten... he did something he never thought he'd do... Drawing a kitchen knife from the block... he held it to Raphs bicep. "Now"
"L-Leo," Y/n gasped softly, from both his appearance and his action. She sighed in relief when Raph let go... a bruise already forming. Ducking quickly, using what Leo had taught her ages ago to escape the confines of Raphs hulking figure. Swiftly and smoothly, she found herself safe behind Leo... who still stood... glaring at his brother.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?"
"SHE BROKE MY PLATE!"
"SO YOU CAN JUST HURT HER?? ARE YOU A FUCKIN ANIMAL?" Raphs response pissed him off... how dare he think that such a motive was good enough to lay a hand on a woman... not just any woman... his own woman... 'No fuck his woman... my woman' Leo gritted his teeth, after seeing that. Raph deserved nothing... nobody like Y/n.
"She... I-" Raph was cut off by Leo... who had lowered the knife and had his arm wrapped around Y/n...who was still hiding behind him.
"Save it... You're her lover... you should be protecting her... not hurting her!"
"I DO PROTECT HER!"
"JUST NOT FROM YOURSELF APPARENTLY!"
"WELL AREN'T YOU JUST MR.PERFECT!" Raph stood chest to chest with Leo... his glare never wavering
"I... I never claimed to be perfect... but at least I don't let my emotions control me and hurt the ones I care for," Oh his calm voice pissed Raph off even more... left his blood boiling.
'Who the fuck are you to get involved?' He grumbled in his head... "I didn't hurt her..."
"The bruise says otherwise!"
"I-" Raph halted... watching as her form shook softly behind Leo... wanting to run... but too scared to leave the wall that was her best friend. Raph only scoffed, rolling his eyes while hitting Leo's shoulder on his way out of the room... Causing both Leo and Y/n to gasp.
(mini time skip)
Y/n had left... telling Leo she was going to search for the plate... and fix what she'd done... no matter how much it cost. Ever insistent, even after Leo told her she shouldn't reward Raph for his lash out... and that accidents happen. She left the lair in high tension... the two brothers refusing to even look the other in the eyes.
"So... You're just that Fucken stupid?" Leo sat, gently holding the crocheted turtle between his fingers, not looking up to meet his brother's glare.
"No one asked you to get involved..." Leo didn't care... This was Y/n they were talking about, the girl he GAVE... He gave to his brother... to hold, cherish, love... not whatever was going on now...
"I don't give a damn... You hurt her... and not only emotionally with you leaving all the damn time but physically... PHYSICALLY!!" He roared, moving to stand... Raphs brush-off attitude pissing him off.
"I KNOW! Alright, I messed up... but what do you want me to do? Can't fucken turn back the clock and undo it!"
"I gave YOU!" Leo was furious... breathing heavily, his eyes pinned to Raph... and his fists clenched tightly at his sides... a poor excuse of a way to try and hold himself back. With a deep breath, he thought his words over carefully before continuing. "I gave you... the greatest girl of all Times," Now standing over Raph, turtle set aside safely... "I helped you get her... I played wingman... and yet," He couldn't stop them... not the tears of rage that threatened to fall... From the sheer... Embarrassment, rage, longing? He didn't know, but he knew they were for her. "I thought she'd be happier with you... but she's terrified of you... How can you sit there and just... be okay with that?" He was breathless, truly trying to fathom how Raph could do such a thing.
"There's someone else..." It was hesitant... nothing but a mere whisper, but to the leader... it was like Raph had just screamed in his face...
"What..." He watched as Raph panicked, having heard the words spoken for the first time. The soft gasp that left his lips after admitting such a thing... "Hehe... hahah! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Now grabbing him by the front of his plastron, Leo forced him to stand... "YOU'RE GIVEN THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME TO BE WITH A GIRL THAT TRULY WANTS YOU..." He took a deep breath... but his screaming continued... "AND YOU GO SLEEP WITH SOMEONE ELSE!?"
"I DON'T KNOW OKAY... She was... just there and... I couldn't contain myself," He didn't try to argue back... he had no right to. Now after... Knowing, knowing that he was literally cheating on his older brother's dream girl.
"I really... Really feel like killing you..." Leo's voice was dark... and venomous... "but... At least she knows," The smirk that took over Leo's face was... devilish, like he had caught an angle in his sinful trap. With a slight shift of weight from one foot to the other... Leo revealed what was behind his large shell.
"what do you... Y/n..." Raphs eyes widened... There she was... in all her beautiful glory... but it was tainted. Her tear-stained face, the way her eyebrows furred in rage, and how her eyes were dark... oh so dark.
"Thank you, Leo... I should've known..." She sighed, bringing her sleeve up to wipe her face. "I... I'd like to go home now," Her voice was even... as if she wasn't heartbroken... like who she thought was the love of her life, didn't just admit to cheating on her.
"I... Wait!" He went to shove Leo out of his way, but the hero in blue refused to move...
"You've done enough..."
"YOU SET ME UP!! WHY? Y/N!" Raph screamed, "PLEASE... let me explain!" Still struggling against Leo, Raph reached out for her, watching as she only stared at him...
"Why? You... admitted yourself," All this time, "The number of times... you left me...were they all for her?" He could see the pieces all falling into place... "Left me in bed... Date nights..." She chuckled, it was humorless but still... "All for her?"
"I... Okay, fine but scream at me, hit me... Something!" He wanted a reaction from her... fear, rage, sadness... anything to show she cared, anything... that would give him some type of amo to make her stay.
"No... I," She sighed softly, refusing to look away from him... staring at his distressed eyes over Leo's shoulder... She knew she had to face him now... or else she'd fall for his trap all over again. "I am done... wasting tears on you..." With a shove, he fell back onto the couch, his weight causing it to strain under him. He moved to get up but stopped...watching as Leo moved, leading Y/n to his bedroom, arm around her shoulder... holding her close to his chest.
"Don't... bother us Raph," Oh he didn't miss the way Leo smirked. The way his arm tightened ever so slightly or how it moved from her shoulder to her waist.
Raph sat down... he deserved this. He got too greedy and now... he was left with a girl who didn't take the time to remember how he liked his sandwiches... how he hated sweaty bandanas, or that he loved the simple act of just... existing together. Raph knew Leo was the one that healed her heart... "All for me to break it again.." He scoffed... knowing no matter what, he lost, he lost the girl, the gracious chance of a love life... to his brother... the guy that should've had her first... Accepting his sadness... he sat on the couch... allowing the tears to flow and the soft sobs to leave his throat... He wanted no sympathy... only to wallow in his own anguish at the opportunity he fucked up.
(OKAY OKAY... I hope that was up to expectations... this was hard to write like.. really hard wokring on the next chapter for my Villian Deku x Y/N HAVE A GREAT DAY AND REMEMBER TO EAT, DRINK, AND LOVE YOURSELF BYEEEEEE LOVE YOU ALL)

What are some of your favorite Headcanons for Donnie and Leo???
Alright listen here.
Donnie:
This boi definitely has cameras set up around the lair, and I can guarantee you he saves some of the footage. He has a video of Leo pulling a flaming piece of toast out of the toaster and flailing it around until it crumbled to ash in his hand. He has copies of that video, and he refuses to delete them.
He has a video of Mikey sleep walking and having an argument with the refrigerator while fully asleep.
Another thing he has a video of is from quite recently actually. A kitten had fallen into one of the drains during a storm and broken its leg. The guys found it on their way back from patrol and nursed it back to health before sending it to a home it would be loved in. The video he has is of Raph in one of his rare soft moments, smiling softly as he rocks the kitten back and forth before falling asleep with it on the couch. He treasures all of these videos and he watches them when hes sad or down.
Now for the crackhead headcannons.
Does a very good anime girl impression
Has shocked himself so many times on his right hand that his nerve endings are fried
He has walked into the kitchen with his hand on fire and not realized it
When he has beef with one of his brothers he is extremely petty
One time he put a bit of coffee in Leo's tea
He was too tired to notice
*cue Leo going on a two hour rant about the fighting style in Dragon Ball Z
No one even knew he watched it
Has tried to have a conversation with a turtle at the pet shop
Leo:
Mikey tends to sleepwalk when he's had a stressful day and Leo makes it his job to sit awake in the livingroom until his youngest brother wanders in before leading him back to bed. He has had some pretty wild conversations with him too.
We all know he and Raph tend to butt heads a lot, but I believe that after he blows off some steam, he worries about his younger brother. He will secretly peek in on him and if he seems extra angry he will go out of his way to do something nice. He will refuse to admit to it though.
When it comes to Donnie, he always wakes up earlier than his other brothers, and the first thing he does is peek into the lab. If Donnie is in the middle of something he will refill his coffee and leave it on his desk. If his genius brother is asleep at his desk he'll carefully help him to bed.
And now for the secondary crackhead headcanon.
He has definitely made coffee for Donnie before bed and laced it with something that will knock him out
Sometimes it's the only way the other turtle ever gets enough sleep
When he was younger he loved to watch Donnie work
Until he got electrocuted
He keeps his distance now
The Bay movies showed us that Raph likes to knit, but Leo likes to crochet
When he was like 8 he dropped his katana and cut off a piece of Splinter's tail
It grew back but he was too scared about hurting his dad and it took a week before he picked them back up
Cries when he burns toast
The only thing he can cook is sushi
Mikey once convinced him that he found a bag of rare tea
It was weed
He made it into tea and everyone was high for almost 2 days
Splinter was not happy
Has had an argument with Mikey about why Donnie is the antichrist, all while the other was asleep
One time he was so deep into meditation that he sneezed and scared himself
Talks in his sleep
In Japanese
No one has the heart to tell him
Donnie todo asustado y la t/n tipo;
[Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3]
Mystified by your date’s bizarre actions, you wandered about your apartment, racking your brain as to where you’d gone wrong. Overthinking was your specialty, and you feared that perhaps you moved too fast, making him feel uncomfortable. Mortification painted your face as you hoped that wasn’t the reason. Noticing Noodle sniffing around excitedly by the couch, you walked over to see what he was so interested in. Kneeling down for a closer look, you found a few pale green flecks dotting your carpet. They were lightly iridescent with a rough texture, almost like the skin of a snake. “…Are these…Scales?”
Keep reading
Here's the colors comparison for the scales. Most of these have a light to dark scale, but the exceptions are 2016 where the 'highlight' is the tan area around their mouths, and 2018 where I show some additional colors on their skin, like Leo's red marks.
I feel like 2003 is a little dark, but that might be because of the picture I chose. Or it just looks darker with the colors separated.
I have the results of the next poll, and I still have shell colors to finish up and post.
When I get the eye color comparison (result of Poll 2) then I'll make Poll 3.
Doodles characters dump, but here's some really old TMNT 2003 and 2016 OC I paired with Leo and Donnie (the one below is redesign and redraw) Left one is Fauna and the right one is Dawn
Fauna's old design below. She's a character I wrote (in heavily incorrect grammar) in an old notebook I found.
Dawn is paired with Donnie through the heterochromia soulmate AU. She's an outer space alien who also eats kraang.
She's supposed to be really tall, almost as Donnie's height but I drew her a bit shorter.
I don't remember that much from 2003 Donnie, but compared to the other version of him, he's pretty less chaotic than them.
2012 Donnie blows up his lab, 2014/2016 Donnie jumps out of a plane, 2018 Donnie is thirsty for homicide.
What a cutie patotie
See my other drawings.
Especially for my friend on Bday
okay! i read the rules and all!
can you write hcs of bayverse leo with a short and busty gf? i have back pain all the time 💔💔
Leonardo X Fem! Reader who's short and busty
Note(s) : I sort of focused on the short and busty part, so if you want more general Headcanons I can do that.
Leonardo doesn't mind your height, he's a giant mutant turtle, he's never exactly been one to care for appearances. He knows what it's like to be judged and excluded, so even if he makes a small joke once or twice, it's never out of malice and always something you can laugh to.
Speaking of, his jokes are those sneaky ones, ones you maybe can't even tell are there until hours after the conversation. They're not so much jokes as they are funny jabs? It's strange.
Okay, so, he strikes me as the type of guy who wouldn't really look at all, he's respectful, looking away respectfully if you will, and doesn't mention your bust unless it's a conversation revolving around it.
The bare minimum, yet still, he exceeds most men.
At first when he realises you're in pain, he thinks that you must've injured yourself somehow. Maybe you lifted something too heavy, maybe you fell down the stairs.
He can't exactly figure out if you have back pain from your chest, not until you tell him directly, he's not an idiot by any means, he just doesn't really connect 'big boob = pain'
I can imagine he's one of those guys who just doesn't understand that boobs have weight to them, yes they exist I have met them, but it's less because he refused to learn and more so because... He's a mutant turtle with a mutant rat dad who's been forced to live in the sewers with three brothers, he isn't too knowledgeable on human female anatomy.
When you tell him, probably after he questions you because he's concerned. He offers a cuddle, maybe some soup and tea if April isn't busy and she can buy them for you, he doesn't know how else to help besides resting?
He probably tries to learn how to massage, which is difficult for him because, you know, only three fingers, and researches how to help back pain, both in general and in reference to a larger bust.
Leo probably wouldn't mind if you don't wear a bra around the sewer, they can get uncomfortable especially if they have wiring in them, and he thinks it's best to prioritise comfort for one's self than tip toe around what others could think.
His brothers, especially Mikey, joke all the time about the fact he managed to get you, not in a weird way, they're not jealous at all and view you as a friend, but they just find it funny because Leo is the last guy besides Donnie they expected to get a girlfriend, let alone one as nice as you.
Leo always forgets that you're together, because how could you choose him? Out of all of the guys you could fall in love with, it just so happened to be him, it confuses him, because you could've had someone normal.
Leonardo really wants to get Splinters approval, which isn't too hard because Splinter thinks you're a great girlfriend, you basically complete Leo and make it happy, it's hard to disagree against that.
You know how in schools or work places, the dress codes usually target female presenting people? Yeah, he's the boyfriend that lets you rant to him about how awful it is, and he's also the type of boyfriend to nod along and occasionally go 'That's horrible 😡'
If you ever get catcalled expect the rare moment of Leo using his mutant looks to scare people, he's basically scary boyfriend privileges, the second he steps out of the light people are screaming in fear.
He probably feels bad about it afterwards, not because he feels sympathy for the people he scared, but because he feels like a monster.
I did it myself🫡✨
