#and i hope that as i write more about big mama and donnie that i will be writing that well

[beannary]

If you want to talk about one of your aus, or au ideas, I'd love to hear about them! (*scoots my chair forward, looking hopeful*)

ok ive been wanting to answer this for a while but i kept on being so scared because ah! this is the one opportunity ill get to talk about my au! but then i realized that is stupid this is not gonna be my only opportunity to talk about my au

putting my ramblings under a read more because i ended up uh saying a whole lot about Donnie and his relationship with both Splinter and Big Mama

ok so basically ive been thinking a lot about the little prince au because it is fully my child and i adore it so much but ive been specifically thinking about Donnie and Splinter's relationship because I really want to write their relationship well

theyre gonna have such an interesting relationship. I know I havent gotten into how Big Mama ended up with Donnie but I am working on a comic for that so I'm not going to get into all of the details but Splinter does know that he left a turtle behind, he just thinks that the turtle he left behind died in the lab explosion, so over the years he has dealt with guilt because of that but overtime that guilt not necessarily faded but he comes to rationalize it because truly it wasn't his fault that Donnie got left behind, and truly there was nothing he could have done to save Donnie. But once he learns that Donnie is not only alive but that he's been living with Big Mama, Splinter's guilt is going to come back at full force because oh my god, not only is the kid that he thought was dead actually alive but he was raised by the woman who kidnapped Splinter and forced him to fight for years!

Splinter is going to be trying so hard to get Donnie to live with him once he learns that Donnie is alive, and he's going to be trying so hard to be the best parent for Donnie ever to like makeup for abandoning Donnie back in the lab explosion. or you know, not abandoning Donnie but that's what Splinter sees it as

I also want Donnie to have like similar reactions to leaving Big Mama that Splinter had. Like undeniably Splinter was incredibly depressed after leaving Big Mama, and like Big Mama turned this thing that Splinter loved, you know performing and being in the spotlight and entertaining!, and completely took away any agency that he could have to this thing that he loved to the point where he refused to take part in it just so he could have some sort of control over his life again

When Donnie leaves Big Mama (whether its by his own will or not I havent decided or figured out how he comes to live with the Hamatos yet) but he's going to go through something similar just a complete shut down where he abandons everything that he loved to do because he now associates them with Big Mama and her control over him if that makes sense? Like Donnie LOVES dancing and he loves playing music and listening to music! but these are activities that Big Mama actively encouraged and so naturally hes going to associate them with her.

I think one thing Donnie is going to throw himself into when he first leaves Big Mama is his inventing. Sort of like how Splinter would lose himself in his shows, I think Donnie is going to get into a sort of headspace where he just spaces out and doesn't have to think about anything while he's tinkering around.

Donnie and Splinter I think are also both going to want to try to prove themselves to each other? Splinter I think might end up being really overbearing while trying to makeup for all this lost time while Donnie is going to try to be the perfect son for Splinter just like he tried to be the perfect son for Big Mama

But like once they actually get to talking and once Donnie is more comfortable around Splinter I think these two are going to have a lot of heart to hearts just because Big Mama controlled their lives for so long, there's a lot of stuff to bond over and relate to

Idk Im not super confident in my writing abilities and Im trying really hard to portray Big Mama as a narcissistic parent but a lot of the stuff that I've read about how narcissistic personality disorder might portray itself in a parental role like centers heavily on the way that they pit siblings against each other and Donnie does not have a sibling! So I guess in a sense he would be both the golden child and the scapegoat which must make for a confusing existence. I dont even know if im portraying this well at all or if any of this is coming across in my writing but I sure hope that it is!

Another thing I want to get into is how Big Mama like reacts to Donnie's inventing because like having a super smart kid that can build you whatever you want is logically a very good resource to have and she does want him to keep building her stuff. But like inventing is messy! Science is messy! In an ideal world Donnie would be getting down and dirty working hard on engineering and botany, and like Donnie can sometimes get so focused on his work that he turns into a bit of a hermit till he comes out of that focused mindset and that's really the part that Big Mama doesn't like because like yes having a super smart kid does reflect very well on her, but having a kid whose constantly playing in the dirt or messing around with explosives and other dangerous devices and who occasionally goes completely MIA while working does not reflect well on her. So she's put into a position where she both wants Donnie to keep building her stuff but she also doesn't want all that extra messiness that comes with encouraging this interest of his.

Anyways im going to stop now because this has gotten WAY too long and I dont even know where im going with this! but it was so helpful to write this all out and just like getting my like thoughts you know written out so I can actually see if any of this makes sense asdklfjhsakdjh

#bean babbles #literally bean is babbling so much in this one guys #answered asks #writing-biting #tlp au #the little prince separated au #idk im kind of feeling this all out especially with big mama and donnies relationship #because i am projecting a lot obviously because donnie is my blorbo but also like my relationship with my mom is not nearly as intense #as donnies is with big mama #so mostly ive been doing a lot of reading into psychology to try to write this well #and i hope that as i write more about big mama and donnie that i will be writing that well #idk im so nervous about this au because drawing is definitely something im better at than writing and doing a comic is like combining both #and combining something im good at with something im not super confident with #OK im shutting up for real now askdlhfjalksjhdf

[acewithapaintbrush]

I really love @daedelweiss Life Mission AU and especially how close and affectionate the twins are so following my MO I just had to write something. Hope I got the characterisations right.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

"And this is 'Run of the Mill Pizza'! The best pizza place in the Hidden City. Ah, what am I saying! In the whole world!"

Leo spreads his arms wide and wiggles his fingers a little. It's easy to see how much he loves this place and how giddy he is to show Donnie. 

Don meanwhile is not particularly impressed. It seems like a nice enough place, but it's nothing fancy. The furniture looks old, the smell of cold pizza hangs in the air and the clientele… well, some of them he wouldn't want to meet in the middle of the night, let's just leave it at that. 

Don has occasionally accompanied Big Mama to meetings with important people at big and fancy restaurants, so he knows that this is definitely not the best Italian place in the Hidden City. He doubts this place sells a calzone sprinkled with gold leaf or champagne for 50 dollars a glass. 

But his twin looks so expectant and proud. 

"It's amazing." Don agrees easily. He looks around a bit more and his polite smile gradually turns more real. It does look a lot  more cozy than the other places he's been to and Don has recently developed a new fondness for all things cozy. He's lived his life surrounded by sharp words and restricting armor long enough to last him a lifetime. "It really is, Lee." 

"Pepino!", a voice shouts from behind them. "I hope you have come to pay your tab. You still owe me for the last delivery." 

"Tio Hueso!" Leo pulls Don towards a skeleton in a suit who manages to appear as if he is raising an unimpressed eyebrow without actually having an eyebrow. Don is kinda jealous. "Apart from the fact that I still can't believe you would charge your own godson for pizza, I've actually come to finally introduce you to my twin. Donnie, this is Tio Hueso. He runs this place and he looked after me while Dad was out looking for you all. Tio, this is mi hermano, Donnie."

The tall skeleton stares down at Don who does his best to not let on how intimidated he is. The void where this man's eyes should be seems to grow darker and darker the longer Don looks into it. The pinpricks of light don't help any.

But then Hueso smiles and it transforms his whole face. He suddenly doesn't seem nearly as scary. 

"Ah bueno. So we finally meet." He holds out his hand and Don straightens and shakes it with a firm hand. Some of Big Mama's lessons stick around longer than others. Hueso nods in approval. "I was glad to hear that you are alive. Welcome home, mijo. It's good that you have finally found each other again."

"Uh… Thanks." Don shuffles his feet while Leo beams and looks between the two of them with wide and hopeful eyes. The genius suddenly realizes that Leo must have been just as nervous about them meeting as Don has been. He suddenly feels very bad for his first uncharitable thoughts about this place. 

"Si. Very good. Good for me!" Hueso exclaims after a brief pause. He puts his hands on his hips and shakes his head. "Ay, that boy talked about you nonstop. My poor ears." 

"What ears?" Leo mutters sullenly. There is a light blush spreading over his cheeks. 

"'Oh, I'm sure my twin would have been super strong and super smart. Oh, I'm sure he would have been good looking, just like me, and an awesome ninja and super kind.' On and on and on he went." 

"Thanks Tio Hueso. I think we'll just-" 

"He drew pictures of the two of you and your other brothers all the time. I'm sure I still have some lying around."

Hueso disappears into the back, completely ignoring Leo's indignant spluttering and red faced outrage. 

"That you still have them only proves that you actually care! I hope you know that!" The slider shouts after him. He turns to his twin when it becomes apparent that Huseo is ignoring him. "Coming here was not an excuse for him to embarrass me." 

"Embarrass you?" Don asks and smirks. "As if the lair isn't plastered with your childhood drawings of us all." 

Leo pouts. "That's different."

"If you say so." Don leans back against a table and settles in to wait. As much as Leo acts long-suffering, he's also not made a single attempt to leave before Hueso comes back. The soft-shell turtle fiddles with his hoodie, surprisingly feeling a little bashful, a little unsure, all of a sudden. "Strong and smart and kind, huh? Guess you were pretty disappointed when you met the real me." 

He winces. Where did that come from? He is usually much better at keeping thoughts like that inside his own head. 

Leo doesn't react at all and when Donnie finally dares to look up it's to see his brother staring at him with a gobsmacked expression. 

"What?" 

"Ugh, forget I said anything." 

Leo takes him by the shoulders. "You are strong and smart and kind and an amazing ninja. You are the best, ever! Ever and ever!" 

Donnie groans and throws his head back so he can stare at the ceiling, but he doesn't even bother to hide the grin spreading across his face. "Okay okay, stop it already! I'm awesome, I get it." 

"You are." Leo's serious tone is enough for Don to snap his head back down. Leo stares at him with a mixture of pain and happiness that only his twin seems capable of. "You all are. The days I found you and Raph and Mikey were the best days of my life. All of them. How could I ever be disappointed?"

Don finally gives in and pulls Leo into a hug, burying his head into his brother's ever present scarf. He still has trouble showing affection in public, but for his family he is willing to learn. 

They separate quickly enough and Don is a good brother and so he ignores the way Leo surreptitiously rubs his face into the folds of his scarf to get rid of some treacherous tears. Instead he lightly punches his arm. "And what about handsome?" 

Leo acts like he has to think about it. "Well, since we are twins I'd say yes. Incredibly handsome." 

They are still laughing when Hueso comes back with an old drawing. If they were more familiar with each other, Donnie might have teased the man about the fact that it's in a very nice frame. As it is, he grabs it before Leo can stop him. Don can't help the undignified snort that escapes him at the sight of it.

"If that is how you always pictured me, then I believe you about not being disappointed." 

Leo chuckles and rests his chin on Donnie's shoulder so that they can both look at the crude drawing of a lonely 5 year old together. 

"Yeah. Definitely better than anything I could have ever pictured."

Hi! I saw ur first post and I wanted to say I absolutely LOVED IT!

I wanted to know if you could do Rottmnt (each turtle separately!) x Kitsune! Reader and reader usually has their tails around their S/o’s Body / Torso and general hcs?

Also stay hydrated, take breaks, and have a splendid day / afternoon/ night and for the whole year!!

(Btw absolutely love ur aesthetic 🤨)

Boys with Kitsune S/O

Warning: No warning everything is sweet

Characters: Turtle Bros

Writing Type: Headcanon

Author note: Aww thank you honey, you are so kind >:] I hope you like it, it is my first ask I hope I did it well ._. <3

LEO

At the fair, everyone left to do what they wanted and Leo wanted to comfort

So it is time to go to the carousel!

But after some time, it's not fun to ride alone

And you are near to hım

"Oh, nice horse!"

No matter how cheezy his compliments were, you laughed away

Well he thought everything ended until seeing you at Run of Mill Pizza

O-ho-ho why don't you share your pizza with an old friend (definitely not because his pockets are empty)

Then you two started meeting up on the same day and hour (One time he tried to open a portal so you could see how cool he is but things doesn't go as planned... Then you two were banned for a whole week)

After some time you started dating

Well, now he can bury his head in your tails, can't he?... Can't he???

When you accidentally rub your tail against his shell, he is crying inside and trying to make jokes but sadly he stutters

He will hug you from behind and put his chin on your head, he likes how your ears tickle his face

If you're so tall that he can't put his chin on your head, you should be ready to sit on the floor at the movie nights

Okay, he is fluffy so many times but he really likes to squeeze one of your tails and make you mad

Like you are trying to chase him to the death, wheeze-

"Y/N, it is time to hug me, come oouuuut!"

(Leo please give Y/N some time)

Donnie

Sadly he couldn't catch a time to investigate a kitsune but while in Hidden City he can.

What do you mean by some stranger purple masked turtle plucked a hair from your tail? He didn't even notice you-

"Yeah, I'm so... Sor... Sorruhh... Ouch- Ok, I'm so sorry and blah blah." (Raph just had to 'poke' him)

Oh, do you want to help him?

After helping him to learn more about Kitsune DNA and you two get closer and boom- You are dating with mad science man

He loves the way his tail and ears respond involuntarily when he tells you about his plans, like he tells you how to hack stores all over the world for the best purple jacket and your tails are wagging excitedly.

Someone help, there is a melting turtle.

He will be startled when your tail is rubbed against him. At first, he'll avoid your touch, he didn't expect it.

But after some time he will gradually get used to it. (But still, you can notice he is jumping a little. When you tease him about it, he'll say you made it up and quickly move on to a different topic)

He likes to run his hands behind your ears

When he wakes up, he will hug you from behind and lay his head on your ears.

"D, your head is heavy-"

"Eh, it comes with being the brain of the family"

RAPH

Big puppy + Kitsune = the Perfect couple

Well, you know Big Mama's hotel is pretty big so it is so easy to lose your way

And he is kinda nervous to ask someone, everyone looks so busy

When he gets on the elevator, he is alone with a stranger kitsune

You don't look busy to him so he asks where is Big Mama's room

But even though you told him how to go a few times, he can't remember

So you lead the way to him

You two chit chat about hotel and at the end of the corridor he accidentally took your number

His brothers singing "K-I-S-S-I-N-G" when they learn about

But even after two weeks, he doesn't call you, he is so nervous man

Here is where Leo appears, steals Raph's phone and calls you, he saved the day again

Now he needs to prepare himself for a date, why everything is happening so fast?

Wants to hug you but is afraid of hurting you so you just gonna start hugging

He likes how soft your tails are unlike him

Favorite activity to spend time with you is brushing your tails after a bath. He can hold you close while brushing your tails <3

Sometimes he gets very nervous because of his siblings but it will ease when you sit next to him and wrap your tails around his waist, thank you god for sending him an angel

Once he accidentally stepped on one of your tails and apologized for a whole week

"I'm so sorry Y/N, I didn't mean to hurt ya."

"It's 60th time already Raph, it is not hurting anymore."

MIKEY

He and his dad went to the Hidden City so they could spend more time together

But things didn't go as planned and messed up again.

So they started arguing in front of their kid.

They didn't even realize Mikey left.

While the orange turtle watching his own reflection in the decorative pool, he didn't notice the yokai who approached him.

You came to make a wish and throw your money in the fake pool and luckily you have had an extra coin for the sad turtle.

You two wished and threw coins into the pool

Well, he looks better now, what did he wish for

"I can't say or it will not come truuee"

These coins opened a door of friendship

You were so fun to talk, he will invite you on more dates

He'll ask if it bothers you hugging your tails, if you let him he will gonna rub his face in your tails

You can hear his giggles, just awwwwww-

When you wrap your tail around him even if you do accidentally he will understand want attention and will give you what you want (hugging time)

He always wanted to dye his hair so he bought a hair dye but there is one problem, he doesn't have any hair.

So if you let him he can dye your tails, don't worry it is a temporary paint

Wow- You look dashing in orange

"We look hella good baby"

Heeeeeyyyyy.... guess who's ADHD can't let them write for shit?~ This bitch✨~

I suuuuuucck guys I know! I did a poll and everything just so I would have to write some of these! I just couldn't help but get side tracked.... My brain is in the LMK and Spiderverse fandoms!!! Though I will say I basically got this Rise Donnie x Big Mama Assistant req almost done. Almost I say. We'll see if I post it in the next two days and not something else random instead.... I suck lol

Anyways— here's my 3am thoughts from the other night that I'm finish up tonight ironically at 3am again. Soooo bare with me these are basically a bunch of summaries/plots/not fully flushed out possible one shot ideas I might do. Probably could've re-read it a couple more times buuuuttt it's about to be 4 now so....

I hope you guys enjoy!

Sorry this is long↓ I don't own these memes. I've never claimed to do so. I just come across them on Pinterest when I'm on break at work and think they're funny so I like to share them. If I mistakenly put one on here that I shouldn't have please let me know! I like to respect people's wishes. And if you could add the creator names too that would be great so the same mistake isn't made twice. Sorry for the inconvenience that my sharing may cause. I hope you have a good day.

+++++++++++++++++++

Sooooo I was going through the Across the Spiderverse tag(specifically Miguel O'Hara) because you know he's hot. Priorities— Anyways— I kinda had an idea. Brahhzz what if I just took the whole Miguel kidnapping his dead wife/lover's alternate dimensional copy deal that everyone has been throwing around and introduced a new take on this tale?

We all know that the Spiderverse is very open to a wide selection of possibilities and versions of Spiderman and we're all aware that the same thing applies to other characters as well. Soooo who said that Y/n has to be a civilian/or a version of Spiderman for this idea to work?

My fellow peeps I introduce to you Earth 2099 Miguel O'Hara x  Villain/Alchemax worker/Morally Grey scientist Reader!

I can kinda see this playing out in a few ways.

1.)Villain reader investigating the strange phenomenon that occurred a couple months before hacking the multi verse and stirring up trouble. Miguel intervenes and takes what he wants.

For the last year since the bizarre phenomenon in downtown Brooklyn you've been stirring up more trouble than you typical due to collecting the materials needed for your "experiments" to figure out what that phenomenon really was and what the hell was Alchemax —your ex-employers— were up to with your research. With some finessing of the illegal kind you figure out what the corporation was up to. Before being fired you had discovered the existence of the multiverse however before you could investigate any further you were let go. Now that you have your research back you're able to Doc Octo this shit and break into the multiverse. If you could pull this off nothing was stopping ya' from fulfilling yer goal and maybe scoring some fame while you were at it. After some convoluted ass science mumbojumbo. You manage to Doc Octo this shit and break into the dimensional web that held the spider verse. Inside the alternate universe you immediately start messing up shit straight off the back as soon as you fly through the colorful portal. Miguel is quick to pick up on this anomaly and sends some Spiders out to handle the issue. Long story short— they fail. Forcing Miguel's hand to go and correct the anomaly himself. Only to find that it was you. Her. His dead wife/or dead lover. The only problem is that you're obviously not a good guy. Miguel being Miguel will try to rationalize it to himself as he demolishes your equipment/suit that you're not his Y/n, you're a villain, he can't keep you without risking a whole universe just for his selfish desires. However as he stood over your defeated helpless form. He decided. If one anomaly can exist and not destroy existence why can't another? There were ways around this. There had to be. Holding you in his grasp again the hero wasn't sure if he could let you go once again....

2.) You're an inventor/scientist that works at Alchemax/or your another rogue scientist . Either way you're looking to get into the Spider verse. Since the phenomenon from a couple months ago you've been intrigued by the strange occurrence. The news labeled it a "strange weather occurrence" however you knew that wasn't the case. If you're working at Alchemax you've known about the phenomenon since the beginning. If you're an inventor/scientist (with some grey morals) you found out after some research and trespassing. Either way your tinkering pays off thanks to the help of some stolen tech from Alchemax and an interesting glitch from the hacked tech. You eventually have yourself a fully operational universe hopping watch. And where do you end up? Right in the middle of Earth 2099. Miguel is immediately alerted of your presence. An obvious stranger to this Jetson world you find yourself quickly apprehended by a small group of spiders/or Miguel. Either way the red & blue leotard nosferatu as soon as he catches sight of you the dude is all over you. Miguel may be a man who would like to believe he is in control of himself and his rash decisions buuuuttt that's gonna be a nah. Never had the Spiderman ever expected to speak to an alternate version of his dead wife. Especially in person. Every time he's stolen a glance it was from a distance or behind one of his various monitors. He couldn't risk ruining another verse. However somehow regardless of his attempts to keep his desires at bay you've still managed to break past that last thing that was keeping you from him. Now that you're here the thirty year old wasn't sure if he could let you leave him again...

3.) What if instead of breaking into the multi verse. Alchemax employee/Morally Grey scientist Reader! is lured into the multiverse? In your home verse the Miguel who you had married was dead. Struggling with piling debt and depression you choose to bury your problems under research into the weird phenomenon that occurred in downtown Brooklyn a few months before. During this time of trial and error you figure out how to access the multiverse thanks to some misplaced Alchemax files and risky choices. The documents aid in building the device that would aid in your plan to find your ex-husband's alternate universe copy. All the while you were walking right into Miguel's clutches. Cause like you Miguel was having an equally hard time getting over his family's death. Although they are gone the widowed father couldn't help but, search for his loved ones amongst the various worlds that rest at his finger tips. He needed them. He needed you....and you needed him. Although you guys weren't from the same earth you both can replace the pain that was birthed from this tragedy and regain something more. Just be a family.... Hopefully you want to play his game because Miguel couldn't watch from the sidelines any longer.

Alrighty guys that's all for now! Sorry if they're a little all over the place. Regardless I hope you guys liked them and I hope you guys have a good week!

may I request hcs about the rottmnt boys finding a anxious child reader that is a leatherback sea turtle mutant? Leatherback sea turtles are the biggest sea turtles yet have a softshell with spines and no scutes(basically a more aquatic larger calmer softshell turtle) you don't have to do it if you can't or don't want to!

i am so sorry this took so long!! i took a bit of a break from writing for mental health reasons, but i’m going to try and start opening rqs back up again !! also i just did group headcanons for this one bc i’m still getting back into it plus i couldn’t really think of anything for them individually :,,,) i’m so sorry, i hope you still enjoy it !! ♡

tw ❦ hints to reader being orphaned

platonic ❦ romantic

fandom ❦ rottmnt

ɢʀᴏᴜᴘ

i’d like to think they found you before big mama came into play and they found out about the other yokai

so they were all equally shocked and confused

they found you in an alleyway in the city, somehow you’d gotten to new york from the hidden city

you’d been alone most of your life, and you were constantly anxious and scared

it didn’t help that you were now in a very unfamiliar city, with these very weird looking creatures (humans)

however, you did feel a bit safer around the boys as not only were they yokai, they were also turtle yokai (a type you hadn’t seen much of)

also, because you’re a leatherback (A VERY VERY LARGE TURTLE--), none of them realized you were a child until you told them

you grow up to be bigger than raph lmao-

they collectively decide to take you in

donnie’s a little hesitant at first and kinda seems like he doesn’t like you but he gets used to you and starts to care for you

out of all of them mikey is the most excited and understanding

if you have any sensory issues paired with he anxiety he’ll ask donnie to make you some headphones or whatever you need

donnie will also take a quicker liking to you if you suffer from the sensory issues because he Understands

it takes you awhile to get used to your new home

especially seeing as how the boys hid you from splinter for like a week

ok it was more like three days bc these boys can’t lie for shit

splinter wasn’t very accommodating at first, he didn’t really want to have to take care of another turtle (he barely felt like he was taking care of the boys good enough),, but he eventually caved

♡

sometimes leo can be a bit too loud (which can be triggering for some people depending on the anxiety) so you may tend to avoid him at first

he’s sad bc he doesn’t know why you’re avoiding him

but when he realizes it’s bc he’s being too loud he immediately feels super guilty and tries to stop

obviously he can’t completely stop bc it’s part of his personality, but if you hold your finger to your lips i’m a ‘shh’ gesture he realizes he’s being too loud and he quiets down

mikey can sometimes be too loud too but he usually realizes when he is and can stop a bit easier

anyways they all really love you and you for sure found your forever home <3

hope you enjoyed !

i’m not sure who made these dividers but lemme know so i can credit <3

[pianocat939]

Love to hear your thought or hcs on Yandere Leo (platonic or romance or both ) with a reader who escapes from him ( could be from using his sword , when he’s on a mission or lies to him to sneak away ?) also hi hope your doing ok 🌙

Apologies for the long wait, but then again this is the last request of the set

I'm going to assume you want to be added to the anon list as 🌙

Tw: gore (a brief mention but is there), manipulation, isolation, and some overly possessive behaviour

Platonic:

Now I think there is no chance that you'll get away with lying. The reason is simple: he's the most deceptive of the bros and maybe even the entire show. In multiple points, he tricks his opponents using his psychological skill, like the time he made a deal with Big Mama.

So the only option is to use his sword.

I have done a possibility analysis on escaping by using their weapon a few days ago. But, I have not done the more emotional, thought term all that much, so, that's what we're going to discuss about.

I think the easiest way to steal his sword is by causing a distraction somehow. You know how Raphie always has to guide back Leo and Mikey (and occasionally Donnie) back to the main task? It works like that. I suppose you can try the tbh stereotypical "gain their trust" tactic but that doesn't go through with him. He can perceive your emotions spot on so he knows if it's a façade.

Next question: How would he feel once you've escaped from him?

He's insulted and surprised.

He thinks he's the perfect friend for you so it offends him you would leave him like this. Isn't he your best friend? The one who'll always be there to protect you and keep you happy? It pushes him to do better so that he doesn't feel useless. If he retrieves you back, consider yourself in a neverending cycle of things being bought for you and a heavy people-pleaser friend wanting to do everything.

The only thing he's surprised about is how his manipulation hasn't taken effect on you. He planned you to be under Stockholm Syndrome (I know the condition was romantic but for the sake of this post let's assume it includes platonic as well) by now so imagine the disappointment in himself when it didn't work.

"I can't believe that didn't work! My skills are the best out there!"

Finally: How does he get you back?

Simple, he annoys the fuck out of Señor Hueso. Assuming you have both swords he goes to the Hidden City for help. Oh and Baron Draxum as well since he is a magnificent warrior alchemist.

Romantic:

Just a few details since I explained most of the situation.

He gets really clingy after the escape because 1. you escaped 2. the more affection the more likelihood of Stockholm Syndrome. Cuddles, kisses, nuzzles he's bombarding you with it.

At night if you ever fake sleep or try to sleep but are not quite there, you can hear him whisper a few gory details. It doesn't matter if anyone helped you on your runaway, he just hates the thought of anybody being closer to you than him.

Tw: gore

"Those people that you love so much? I'm going to peel layer after layer of their body until there's nothing but muscles and guts. No one can be better than me, I am the one meant for you."

If you do fall under Stockholm Syndrome he's going to revert to a pretty normal boyfriend, except for friends. No friends except his family and April.

He'll take you out to the Hidden City, going on some corny ass date. And maybe just maybe, you can go back to the life you lived.

No friends. He's better.

I ruined my sleep schedule so bad that I stay up until 4 AM each night but today is especially worse I haven't slept

What a life I have writing about traumatized turtles with unhealthy mindsets ;-;

HI!! This is random but I wanted to jump on here and let you know how much in simply ADORE your rottmnt fantasy au!! IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME!! I’m almost never a fantasy au person (it also being a sep!au is what peaked my interest if I’m being honest) but my god yours is just so amazing and perfect! Leo being with Big Mama of course fights so well with him and I’m always a fan of that but Raph with Jupiter Jim James is just genius!!! I don’t know how you came up with it but I’m in love and being a bounty hunter with hero vibes is just so him. I’d absolutely love to see more of him with JJ and more importantly Red Fox!! I can’t remember if you established who exact Mikey was raised by but I’d also love to know more about what happened with him! Finally, Donnie. I could write an essay on how much I love your Donnie. Being a thief fits him and his morally ambiguous self perfectly but putting him with the Mud Dogs? Giving them so much built upon and interesting lore? Making Lenard his primary guardian? Oh I just ate that up!! Every fic was an absolute pleasure to read and you wrote their characters and relationships so well!! I go back to reread things every so often and it never gets old. I could reread it a thousand times and I’d still be smiling under my blanket like a middle school girl every time!! Giving Donnie leg disability too was so cool! I love how seamlessly you write it into your fics and it’s one of my favorite things! It inspired me to give my own sep!au Donnie something similar!!

That’s about all I have to say but I really hope it conveys just how much your au means to me, truly. I hope you’re doing better and look forward to an update but don’t worry about it. I’m more than content reading what you do have to the end of time!

I’m so glad that you enjoyed the fantasy au, it genuinely made me smile. I feel lucky to work with my friends on this au. I hope to do more writing soon but the past few years have been unkind. Thank you so much for such kind words. it made my day :’)

Grayson sighs

Olivia giggles: Grayson, honey. I'm pretty sure that's about the 13th time you've sighed since we started getting ready.

Grayson sighs: Has it really been that much?

Olivia: Quite possibly even more.

Grayson: I'm sorry. I'm just nervous is all.

Olivia: Grace.. you look super handsome, I promise. That suit... suits you.

Grayson: Thanks, but I'm sure you know that it isn't the suit that's bothering me.

Olivia: Really? 'Cause it's the third one you've tried on.

Grayson: ....

Olivia: Ohhh, come here, grumpy. Everything is going to be fine, I promise.

Grayson: Your dad hates me, Liv. Probably even more now that I whisked you away.

Olivia giggles: You didn't whisk me anywhere, Grayson. I wanted to come with you. I think my dad is coming around, seriously. We're going over there, aren't we?

Grayson: Yeah... but I still find it very hard to believe that he's come around to the idea of us together.

Olivia: Well, you shouldn't. You're an amazing, sweet, caring, thoughtful man. No one, not even my dad, shouldn't be able to see how wonderful you are. Unless they're blind or something.

Grayson laughs: That's very sweet of you, Liv.

Olivia: Besides, I think my dad knows how serious I am about us. And about just letting me live my life in general.

Grayson: Watcher, I hope so. I just want everything to go well. I know how much it means to you. And it means a lot to me, too.

Olivia: It will, Grayson. It will.

Grayson: I love you.

Olivia: I love you, too.

???: Knock knock!

Grayson and Olivia: Come in!

???: Well, don't you both look amazing?

Grayson: Thanks, mom.

Olivia: Hi, Bria! You look great, too!

Bria: So, tonight's the big night, huh? The face-off with Big Donny.

Grayson: Yeah, any last minute words of advice?

Olivia: Not that Grayson needs any!

Bria: Yeah, remember your mama is on speed dial and I will be there in a heartbeat to get Ol' Donovan together. Nobody disrespects my child. That includes you Olivia!

Olivia: Yes, ma'am.

Grayson jokes: You honestly could get a call from me, mom.

Bria: Just don't feel like you can't stand up for yourself. This is your life. As much as we want to write it for you as parents, it's up to you guys to build the life you want. It's our job to just support you.

Olivia: Now, that's great advice.

Grayson: She tends to give the best.

Bria: It's gonna go great and even if doesn't, you'll be happy you tried. Either way, you two crazy kids and that cat and my near future grand babies are going to be super happy.

Grayson laughs: Alright, mom. Let's get through this first.

Olivia: Thank you, Bria.

Olivia: Ready?

Grayson: As I'll ever be.

Dealing with Family Revelations

Word Count: 2.2 k

Warnings: Themes of parental manipulation/abuse,

Authors Note: This a fanfic from @awhphooey 's rottmnt separated au where each of the boys were raised found and raised separately - Donnie was raised by April and her parents, Leo was raised by Hueso, Mikey was raised by the Foot Clan, and Raph was raised by Big Mama. Definitely check out their au, it's very good! I hope you enjoy!

After everything that just happened, April and Donnie found themselves in their shared room. “Alright, alright,” Donnie went to his whiteboard, and wiped down all of his notes on possible improvements to Sheldon. Ooh, he’s gonna regret that later, April thought.

“So, up until now we’ve just kinda assumed that I was just a turtle that just happened to gain sentience and become humanoid. Now, I was never super satisfied with that but none of my research or blood and DNA testing ever came to any fruition.”

“What? DNA testing? How did you manage that?”

“I may have broken into a government property or two to find some forensic equipment.”

“Donnie!”

“That’s not important. What’s important is that we now have two new hypotheses to work under! We have the red one’s theory and the orange one’s!”

“What about that blue turtle?”

“First point, he was an asshole, so I don’t know how much I can trust what he has to say. Second point, you hit him hard enough with the pipe that he was knocked out so a concussion is entirely in the picture. Last point, he’s an idiot.”

April snorted.

“Do you remember their names at all? I can’t remember what they said.”

“You don’t remember their names? Dude, they dropped the biggest bombs on you and you barely remember them?”

“Scoff. I remember them plenty. There was the really big one who just kinda looked confused, the energetic loud one who kept doing flips and handstands, and the one who tried to kill me. I just had other ”

April rolled her eyes. “Big guy, Raphael, Loud guy, Michelangelo, Snarky guy, Leonardo.”

“Huh. Those aren’t the names I expected. Nevermind that!” He turned around to the whiteboard, and divided that. “Ignoring the theory of being biologically to a guy who resembles a human skeleton, we have two possible theories.”

“Are human skeletons really that different from turtles?”

Donnie shuttered, “Yes. I don’t want to talk about that. Anyhow! There is Raphael’s Yokai theory and Michelangelo’s Mutant theory. Yokai are not actually a new concept, but a type of creature in Japanese folklore. It is a bit hard to figure out which aspects of Yokai are real and are just legend, but we can assume that they come in a vast variety of types. That would put more doubt, but the turtle form of Yokai was actually quite prevalent. However! It seems unlikely to me that we would be so many different kinds of turtles. It would make sense for there to be more similarities if we were biologically related.

On the other hand, there is Michaelangelo’s theory of mutants. Recently, there have been a string of mutants forming with a combination from another species of animal. If we just happened to be separate types of turtles connected to the same human DNA, then that would explain the differences. But the instances can only be traced back to about a month ago, and obviously the mutation would have had to happen over a decade ago.”

Donnie went on like this for a while before April interrupted him, “Woah, woah, woah. How are you not freaking out more about this? I’m freaking out about this!”

He looked up at his frantic writing on his whiteboard. “What part of this looks like the work of a sane person?”

“No not that Dee! You have brothers now! You have a whole family that we’ve never met before!”

“Why would that matter?”

“Because, you have a family now! People who can actually understand and help you! Why aren’t you focusing on that?”

“Oh. Should I be?”

“Yes, you should be! You just don’t get it,” She turned away from him and curled up into a ball.

Donnie sighed and dragged his hand down his face. Emotions, he could never understand them. He sat down next to her. “You know I’m terrible with processing how I’m supposed to be feeling April, but I just met these people. You must give me some time.”

“...”

“Or you could just tell me why you're so upset over this whole thing, and we can stop wasting time.”

She peered up at him, “Don, you’re literally my only friend. Now that you met your actual family, I’m going to be left in the dirt again. How many times have I gotten left in the dirt because I wasn’t someone’s best friend. Always the baggage someone didn’t want to deal with. Now that you have actual brothers, you’re just going to leave me just like everyone else. Why are you pretending like that’s not going to happen?”

Donnie laid a comforting hand on April, “I think that might actually be the stupidest thing that I have ever heard.”

She knocked his hand off. “Not helping.”

“Do you think I’m going to care about those idiots I just met more than you? You’re the one that found me and brought me home. You’re the one that accepted me as a brother. You’re the one that encouraged me to build Sheldon. You’re the person who accepts me even when everyone gets annoyed when I don’t understand others' emotions.”

“I mean, yeah but I’m sure they can understand you better than I can.”

“Who cares? You are April O'Neil, and my sister. I could never care about anyone more than I care about you.”

“Aww,” April leaned against him. “You’re just a big old softie.”

“Just don’t let anyone know. Got to keep up my bad boy reputation.”

“Sure Donnie. Whatever makes you happy.” ______________________________________________________________

“Dad, Dad!” Leo bursts through the secret wall of their restaurant. “Why did you never tell me that I was adopted?”

Hueso, who was in the middle of trying to seat a customer, looked deadpan at his son. “I am busy right now Leo. Why don’t you go upstairs and bother someone else, hm?”

“No, I’m serious, Dad! I just met my brothers, which apparently I have brothers! You should have told me!”

Hueso excused himself from the customer, and gave Leo his full attention. “Why don’t we bring this upstairs, hm?”

“Fine,” Leo mumbled. They headed upstairs to where their private living space was. “So?”

“I kind of thought it was obvious. I mean,” he vaguely gestured to both of them.

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“Pepino. I am a skeleton. You are a turtle.”

“What’s your point?”

“Oy vey. Why did you think I called it adoption day instead of birthday?”

“I don’t know, I just thought you were weird.”

“Yes, I’m clearly the weird one. Why don’t you tell me what happened?”

Leo flopped onto the couch, “Ok so I was looking around, just minding my own business, when I spotted this guy being like super shaddy, so I decided it would be best to apprehend him.”

“Uh-huh.”

“Look in my defense, he was covered head to toe in dark clothing and was clearly looking for something. You can’t blame me for swooping in.”

“...Is this that vigilante thing?”

“How did you know that I’m the Blue Blur?!”

“...Was it not obvious?”

“Anywho, I valiantly fought the intruder-”

“You were also intruding.”

“Do you want to hear the story or not?” Hueso motioned for him to continue, “So then his partner knocked me out. Once I woke up, all three were there! I’ve never met anyone who looked like me before, and now there were three of them!”

“Three what?”

“Turtles! We looked a little different, and none of them had my rugged good looks, but we did look similar. And Mikey started saying things about how this made sense because our Mystic Energy was similar or something. And then they were saying that you weren't my real dad, but Lou freaking Jitsu.”

“That action star you like?”

“Yeah, I guess. I don’t know how that even makes any sense. Why would someone put movie star DNA in turtles?” 

Hueso looked over at Leo, who had pulled his legs up in a little hug. He was constantly putting on a face of confidence, and he was good at it. No one usually would be able to really tell when he’s acting or not. But Hueso hasn’t seen him look so vulnerable since he was a hatchling. “What is wrong, mijo? I thought that you would have been actually, I don’t know, excited to have Lou Jitsu be your father?”

Leo sighed, “He’s not you. I’d rather have you.”

Hueso smiled and put an arm around him, “I’m still your Dad, Leo. No matter where you came from, I still picked you that day and decided to raise you. Nothing is going to erase all of the tantrums you threw as a tike or the headaches you gave me. Even if these brothers are going to be in your life now, I’ll still be here.”

Leo surged forward and wrapped his arms around him. “Thanks,” he mumbled into his shirt.

“Now, why don’t I get some pizza from downstairs, and we watch some of those space movies you like so much?”

“But I thought you didn’t like them?”

He kissed Leo on the forehead, “Anything for you tonight, pepito. I’ll be right back.”

“Love you Pops.”

“I love you too, Leo.”

______________________________________________________________

Casey was minding her own business, organizing and cleaning the various Foot Clan weapons, when she was assaulted by an orange blur. “Mikey! Get off!”

“Cass! I missed you! You’re never going to guess what just happened?”

“You decided to get some brownies as a thanks to your sister for not impaling you for attacking a trained warrior?”

“Pfft, no. Don’t be silly. I found out I have brothers!”

“Did you find any small children? We could successfully raise some children to be glorious warriors for the clan! Or sacrifices I suppose.”

He jumped off of her, “No, they're like other turtle mutants. Hold on, I took pictures.” He pulled out his phone and started scrolling through his pictures. None of the other turtles seemed particularly happy that their pictures were getting taken, all seemingly looking confused and surprised. As much as she wanted to deny it, she couldn’t deny the resemblance there.

“Are you sure that they’re your brothers? For all you know it could be a trick.”

“Yeah, even if they were in costumes or something, their mystic energy is too similar to mine to be a mistake.”

“Well you should be careful, little brother. Even now they could be working to overturn our plans.”

Mikey rolled his eyes, “What plans? It’s not like Uncle Rob and Maurice tell us anything.”

“They know what’s best for us! I’m sure that its all part of their grand plan.”

“Fine, but I seriously doubt that they could be doing anything like that. I mean, they didn’t even know what a mutant was.”

“Ha, idiots of the lowest caliber! Clearly unworthy of your attention! As your sister, I advise that you put them out of your mind and never see them again.”

The smile dropped off of Mikey’s face. “What’s with you? I’d thought you’d be happy for me.”

Casey gripped the glave that she was cleaning and with a scream, lunged at Mikey.

“Woah!” Mikey quickly dodged. “Casey what the heck!” Mikey grabbed a sickle and started swinging back. They spared for a little while, until Mikey was able to hook his sickle around the glave and pull it out of Casey’s hands. “What was that about?”

“I’m protecting my family! I’m not going to let some weird turtles take my family from me.”

“By trying to kill me?!”

“The plan may not have been thought out.”

“...Wait? Are you jealous?”

“What? Me, jealous. As if. I don’t need a soap opera family reveal in my life.” 

“Suuuuure.”

She punched him in the arm. “Shut up.”

“I guess it was a bit of a big thing to drop on you. Come on, I’ll make it up to you, let's play a game of death hockey.”

“And you're going to get me some brownies.”

“Fine, I’ll make you some brownies. Race ya!”

“Be ready to taste my wrath!”

Thump. Thump. Thump.

Raphael threw himself into the rhythm of hitting the punching bag. He was lucky that he had enough training to be doing so good in the Battle Nexus. That allowed for him to be able to get his own room, a luxury that few gladiators in the Battle Nexus get. He has his one space, and even gets to leave occasionally.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

So why wasn’t he feeling very grateful? He trusted Big Mama, she always knows what’s best for him. She always knows everything. She knew that Lou Jitsu was his human DNA? So how didn’t she know that he has brothers?

Thump. Thump. Thump.

He’s not stupid, he knows that Big Mama made a good amount of money lying and deceiving people, as much as he wishes that it was different. But thought he was different, that she wouldn’t lie to him. Right?

Bam!

He knocked the punching bag off of the rig. He sighed and laid down on his bed. He was excited to have brothers, he’s never had any before! But what does all of this mean? And will they even like him? Hopefully they won’t hate him when they find out that he’s a gladiator. 

He got up and started to get ready to go to sleep. He could already tell it was going to be a long night.

Last of us, rottmnt

Part 1/? (Finally)

The year is 2041, and the infested are becoming a much more common thing. Even if the Krang failed to fully take over, the damage they've done can never be reversed. It feels like there's no longer a safe place in this world for anyone, humans, mutants, yokai, anyone.

Donatello is out looking for anything that could be useful to the resistance, If he can even manage to make it back to them, he had hopes of finding some old Krang tech. As Donatello was scavenging around he heard some yelling and someone was getting shoved into something, Donatello was already in a bad mood and this just made it worse, he held onto his tech bō, and went to check it out.

He saw some people harassing a kid around the age of 12 - 13, and Donatello stepped in. “Scoff, degenerates, harassing a child.” He said, his voice deep and monotone. The people who were harassing this child immediately run off at the sight of Donatello, I mean, he is a giant mutant turtle, so I can't really blame them. “Oh, well, that was much more effective than I thought it would be.” He said before he nodded to the child who was looking up at him in awe.

“My work here is done now, goodbye child.” Donatello said as he went to walk away, but then the child clung onto his jacket, he cringed at the thought of the child sticky fingers on his nice purple jacket. “W- wait! You can't leave! I still need your help!” The child said, sounding nervous.

“Sigh, fine, fine, what do you need, small human?” Donatello said as he gently ushered the child off him. “I need your help finding m- my dad. He's a mutant turtle like you!” the child said as he looks up at Donatello with big sad puppy dog eyes, the child almost looked like a wet cat in a way, small and gross but cute and you feel you need to help it.

Donatello didn't seem to think too much about it until the child mentioned his father being a mutant turtle, he immediately thinks of his brothers, he has been the resistance for quite some time… It is possible that one of his brothers took in the kid. “Your father is a mutant turtle..? So I take it that you were adopted by him?” Donatello questioned, and the child nodded. “Yes, He took me in after my mama… she..” The child shaked his head, trying to stop himself from crying. “After she passed… Can you help me?” The child asked softly, Donatello thought about it for a moment but nodded.

“Okay, small thing. I will help you. But tell me your name, at least.” Donatello said as he crouched down to the child's height. “I'm Casey, Casey Jr. Jones.” The child, Casey, said with a smile before he asked, “And what should I call you?”Donatello pauses for a moment before he answers “Well my name is Donatello. You may call me Donnie ….or Uncle Donnie if you must.” He said, and Casey Attempted to give him a hug but Donatello allowed them but didn't really hug him back, instead he gave him a hesitant pet on the head.

“Uncle Donnie… Yup! that sounds right!” Casey said with a chuckle and Donatello rolled his eyes but couldn't help but allow a small smile on his face.“Well, enough of this, we better start moving, I have an idea of who you're talking about and where they possibly might be, and we don't want to lose light.” Donatello said and Casey nodded, and they started to head off on their journey.

__________________________________________

It's finally here!! I started writing!

These posts are gonna be pretty inconsistent but stay with me here, because I will be listening to rottmnt fans who have any suggestions, especially @sillyman2001911 who has been doing so much work with drawings for this, I really appreciate all their hard work

#Last of us #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #my au #tmnt au #tmnt 2018 #teenage mutant ninja turtles #tmnt fanfiction #That thing I promise to do

[thedemisapphic]

I’m throwing this out there really quickly. I’ve made another post asking for help, but this one will be shorter, straight to the point, and more organized. If you would like to help me develop a turtle tot fanfic I’m working on, expand this post to see what’s going on :)

-

So, I’ve been cooking up a turtle tot fanfic idea for a good while now. Based on the episode we never got where Raph, Donnie, and Leo turn into tots. Except I take that idea, and expand it through the rest of the season. I’m sticking closely to the serious plot of the season with Big Mama, and I’m even redoing a couple other scrapped episodes but in turtle tot form. Each chapter will act like an “episode” with a full story start to finish that whole shabang. I’ve been organizing and developing as much as I can for a month or so, but I’ve hit a dead end. I have lots of ideas, but I’m scratching my head trying to fill them in or develop them more. I haven’t even come up with a name for the fanfic yet, and any chapters without names have emojis as placeholders.

This is what I have so far. If you agree to help I’ll give you access to this doc, and you’ll be able to see the specifics of each chapter. More than one person helped plan episodes and plot for the show itself, so I’m looking for people interested in helping me! You would get credit for any and all ideas you contribute. Let’s say you do most of the work for chapter 16 for example, I would give you that credit for coming up with that mini story.

-

I think working on Discord or Instagram would be best. The way I want to go about this is just having a space for you to pitch ideas (Google docs), and a separate space for me to bounce ideas off of you (a group chat). I’d like to keep conversations limited to this project, for the sake of my own boundaries and organization. But I would treat you as a mutual and support your work as somewhat of a thank you! :D I don’t talk to people much and I have bad anxiety, so respecting my boundaries is super super super important. I don’t want to feel the need to maintain contact with anyone because that’s stressful, but I want someone there if I need them! 💕

If you want to try it out, leave a comment here. Unless this post gets deleted, then this offer is still available. I’m hoping to get at least one person to help me, but I don’t want more than 4 or 5. Just a small team ready to help me tackle the behind the scenes process :) ultimately I will of course be the one to write this. If you have any questions as well, comment them! Someone might have the same question as you and I’d like to answer it here for people to see 🌸

From there, we can talk privately and I’ll send you a link to the Google doc. I look forward to working with someone and getting help bringing this idea to life! :D ✨

Where We Belong Au:

^concept art :D

Anywhizzle-

No one has thought of this idea (or at least made content out of it) that the rise!turtles were kidnapped back by Baron Draxum and raised to be warriors to fight off the human race. I think all of them would be Nexus Champs but with a little twists with every character.

Donnie- becomes Draxum's apprentice but occasionally goes on missions with Leo. Ofc he's a Battle Nexus champ, but je usually injures his hands since he's always trying out new inventions to help in a fight, so to help his strength he makes metal hand garments to up his hand-to-hand combat and shit. Even so bad guys usually just crush them (and crush his hands in turn) or they malfunction. Ofc he has ideas for other inventions, but Draxum conditioned him to only invent things good for battle or missions (his battleshell is like that so if someone falls on it/bumps into it, it can pierce the skin and make serious injuries (also he's sensitive to sound and hates when the crowd cheers for his win)).

Leo- is Draxum's personal bodyguard/bouncer. He is usually with Donnie on missions, guarding a door/person, or fighting in the Battle Nexus with his bros. If you see he has scars on his inner thighs, this has to do with an encounter with Mayhem when Draxum ordered him to stop the cute fuzzball, and Leo did. However, in order to escape Mayhem scratched his inner thighs, doing some life-or-death damage (they cut a major artery) and so he had to get treated and Mayhem got away. Leo doesn't do that many puns or jokes since he was abused for doing so for being disrespectful to Big Mama and/or Draxum.

Mikey- is Big Mama's personal bodyguard, since he's cute yet deadly. Draxum doesn't really like Mikey's individuality especially when he expresses himself through art, but Big Mama loves it and will commission him to paint portraits of her and cats (idk she seems to be the kinda person to have cats). Even so Mikey does go on missions, but usually will be Raph's medic (this'll come into play later) or Battle Nexus. He doesn't go into Battle Nexus as much as his brothers since Big Mama actually does enjoy his company so usually his punishments with be being whipped on the upper arms (as you can see his scars in the picture) or Battle Nexus.

Raph- is THE Battle Nexus Champion. He has never lost to anyone, and Savage Raph usually helps with that, but he's not more in control of it bc of it (Mikey as his medic usually calms him down after a fight). It's bittersweet when his bros come to Battle Nexus because then he can finally see them, but he knows that they'll have to fight, but he makes sure he takes more of the punches for them (why all the scars). When he was first starting out some asshole decided to slash his fucking eye and so he's blind (I think you can tell which eye in the picture), but he's not really upset about it because he thinks he looks cool. Even so, he does on rare occasions go on missions if they need to boost the team up a little.

Splinter- has never given up hope that he'd find his boys and bring them back. He never cleans their rooms, scared if he does, he's gotten rid of all the memories he had with them. They were the reason he kept living, even though he was a small rat man. They made life worth living.

He would not fail his family.

Not again.

I will post comics about this au :D

Anyone can write fanfics or make fanart or comics or whatever, just please give me credit!

And don't be an asshole and repost it.

[geelk]

Starting with the two oldest of my AU Raph and Donnie!

So I absolutely adore Raph and these were so fun to work on! You will see clearly Raph has more images then Donnie and that’s mostly due to the fact that there were too many good ones for me to skip for her. Raph and Donnie are with Draxum and Raph still got be the older sibling but since it’s just the two of them it’s more they look out for each other rather than Raph fully worrying for them all, of course Raph still uses her older sibling privileges to over worry about Donnie.

Donnie! They are definitely my favorite character even if I personally kin Raph. Donnie in my AU was basically able to go full emo phase and they aren’t leaving it soon. Donnie really gets to be the full mad scientist they can be since their dad is the “waring warrior scientists” after all. Donnie likes to wreak havoc across the hidden city leading to Raph or Draxum having to bail or break them out on various occasions.

Raph and Donnie were told by Draxum that Lou Jitsu kidnapped Leo along with other stories leading them to have a grudge against him, they were also told Mikey was taken by big Mama who would use him for the battle nexus leading them to want to break him out immediately but Draxum told them they should wait. Both have wanted to be strong not only to help Draxum but to hopefully get their brothers back one day.

I have so many ideas for them from drawing these that I can’t wait to draw or write to life! Hope you all enjoys these first designs while I work on Mikey and Leo💕

Ok, now I need to know what the original vision of AU was, like, how donnie went from 'I'm gonna kill that bitch' to 'i would die for that bitch'.

Well he was always going to be 100% devoted to Draxum at the beginning, but before I started writing the fic, I had the idea that overtime Donnie would feel less and less appreciated as Draxum treated him worse and worse after his brothers bailed.

In the end, Donnie couldn't handle all the change. His home life was destroyed, his Foot training cut off, his very worldview challenged- and the attention he wanted from his dad was NOT what he hoped it would be.

He wanted to turn everyone else's lives upside down too, so when he found out about the Shredder and how it drains the life force of the wearer, he didn't say anything. In one version, he waits until Draxum is weakened and then kills/tries to kill him. In another, he had been more actively preparing for it and already had the mystic mind control artifact from Big Mama.

He was gonna have a whole villain moment where he breaks down, and the Shredder shadows him as he tells his dad he was wrong for never thinking Donnie was good enough. AND DON'T U DARE LAUGH BUT ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS THIS WARRIORS ANIMATIC

Nothing else about this song vibes with Donnie its just the "so why don't you love me back?" part. And I found the song thru this animatic so i figured i should share it instead of clipping the audio and pretending im not a warriors fan djsksnd

Edit: here's the full song with lyrics. The Good Part starts around 1:50

HEHEHE HI MIGHTY

I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)? Reading: Yan and noncon I guess? And duping/secrets, which @/desceros does really well. Sex pollen. Writing: oh man. I like hurting my readers. A huge guilty pleasure is that I make massive written works. I can't keep it small or contained, I can't make blurbs or rambles. It needs a pre-established and somewhat explored relationship at the least, and I just tend to go for longer works. I like huge arcs. I also tend to make very....powerful, conniving love interests, visible in both Caiji in Butterfly Effect and Anni in my bay raph fic. Come to think of it, I also tend to pair them with bay raph-

M: Got any premises on the back burner that you’d care to share? Like writing premises? One about making bay donnie origami and taunting him with it in hidden places. Another about bay Mikey in a shame spiral and needing your validation. Another about bay raph learning to be gentle when he touches you. An idea by @luckycharms1701 where bay Leo aches to have Mikey's girlfriend. A short comic here and there about my human fnaf rise au. I hope to one day make turtle pov fics about how much they crave you. Something with bay Mikey x a bubbly reader that likes to eat(not a feeder fic, a chubby reader). I also hope to make loser!reader content😶‍🌫️ and more headcanon style nsfw. I want to make Yan works as well. Though all my premises are on the back burner at the moment, as I can't write for the foreseeable future.

Z: Major character death–do you ever write/read it? Is there a character whose death you can’t tolerate? You won't necessarily see it a lot recently bc I haven't been writing, but I write it a lot. I've killed Big Mama in my human rise comic. There's an average amount of character death in Butterfly Effect, though less than you'll probably think. I however have a very hard time reading it. I mostly read smut or romance, but in the angstier things I read it's still just canonical deaths, like rise bad future works. It's less that I hate it and more that I don't seek it out. I don't think there's a character death I don't tolerate, bc again I don't really read those kinds of works. I do, however, really struggle with reading works where the reader is dead? Too much disconnect, I feel. I LOVE alternate pov fics but I also like actually feeling and being alive, and most of them get very hopelessly sad, which is one of the few things that actually affects me

The (Un) Secret Garden: Chapter One

Finally posting this!

My first ROTTMNT fic, I hope you all like it!

EDIT: The entirety of this fic is posted on my writing blog, @jaywritesturtles! Subsequent sequels will be posted there too.

Next Chapter

Ao3: complete!

Summary: The thing with an impromptu apocalypse is that it forces people - even those who hated each other prior - to join forces for the sake of survival. However, when the aforementioned apocalypse is averted - and by proxy, no stressed bonds are forced - then enemies are liable to remain enemies. Casey Jones never got that particular memo. Or: Big Mama manipulates Casey and the Disaster Twins gotta help him out.

Chapter One: Don't Crash Cars, it's Bad for the Economy

April's POV

"Go topside, they said. It'll be fun, they said!" April O'Neil grumbled as she, Cassandra Jones, and her son from the future, Casey Jones, sat in police custody.

A more accurate statement might be that April and Casey sat in government custody. Cassandra was hitting and kicking the bars as a policeman confiscated her bent naginata, Casey's tech-saw, and April's bat, shouting at levels previously thought not to be possible by human(?) lungs. 

The only good thing about it was that the policeman couldn't hear a single word from the other two. 

Or, rather, he wouldn't have been able to. Casey hadn't said a single word since being pulled over.

April nudged the future boy. 

"You doing okay, Jones?"

"I think all the police were dead by the time I was born."

It was a very good thing Cassandra was making so much noise. Unless they had much more open minds since April had last been pulled over, then it would have been a very interesting conversation.

On April's last bout to the police station, it hadn't been her fault.

It had been Donnie and Sunita's fault.

April made a mental note to check if her friends could pass for humans as well as drive in a non-apocalyptic fashion that happened to spare any and all adjacent fire hydrants.

The policeman walked up to the temporary cell they had been placed in, apparently unperturbed by Cassandra's incessant screeching until she decided to spare her lungs. April looked at the officer 

"Can we have our phone call?"

April tugged on the cord gently as the phone rang. Cassandra glowered at a man who was clearly actually incarcerated, and Casey's leg twitched as he shifted anxiously on a cold, hard bench.

"Chello~?"

April could make out Mikey's voice through the receiver and frowned slightly. She had called Donnie, right? But a garbled voice on the other end confirmed her suspicions.

"Mikey! Stop 'Chello~'ing a possible enemy!" That was (probably) Raph.

"And stop stealing my things!" Definitely Donnie...

"Hey, Donnie's stuff is fair game!" Leo.

"When did we decide that?" Donnie again. April sighed on her end and closed her eyes for a moment.

"Guys!" she said in a tone just below a shout.

"April!" Mikey exclaimed over the other end.

"Why are you calling from a station phone? I gifted you a Genius Built tech - trademarked, obviously - phone for a reason, April."

April cleared her throat and rolled on the balls of her feet. "Welp," she began, drawing out the 'e' in 'welp' before deciding to just bite the bullet and do it. "Remember when I said I'd take Casey and Casey topside to teach 'em driving?"

"Yes, we have the you-know-what all ready for them upon your return..." Donnie said skeptically.

"Well... We might've gotten into the smallest little crash ever," April could feel the crushing, expecting silence as her voice trailed off as someone dropped something. "And Casey jumped out of the window of the driver's seat, so Cass grabbed the wheel so we wouldn't crash into a pet store, and we crashed into a fire hydrant."

Silence on the other end. April chanced a glance at Cassandra and Casey and saw that Casey seemed to be expecting the electric chair. Cassandra, on the other hand, wasn't paying attention at all and was about five seconds from turning a staring-contest-turned-battle-of-wits into an actual fistfight with a definitely actually incarcerated prisoner.

"Is Casey okay?"

April nodded before she realized that they couldn't see her.

"Yeah, he's good. This lady shouted at him for a bit for jumping out of a car window and in front of her car, but he's fine now."

After a moment in which her friends on the other end seems to be taking the information in, April continued: "In any case, we still have a car with a busted hood, one grand to pay for the fire hydrant, and another three hundred apiece to Cass and Casey for driving without licenses. Mine's been revoked for a couple of weeks. If we can pay the fines now, then maybe we can get off without either of them serving any time," April explained.

"If Michael would give me my phone, then you'll be out before Pizza Week." April knew full well Donnie didn't need his phone to pay their fines, but there was no use bargaining with Donnie once you stole his phone. "Nay, within the hour!" Donnie amended, and April bet the first slice that he was posing dramatically if Leo's snickers were anything to go by.

"Thanks, Donnie. See ya in a few," April said as she placed the phone on its base.

Casey looked up at her with mild interest and pulled his jacket around himself slightly. 

"Everything's fine. Knowing Dee, we'll be out in about an hour. We'll just have to stay off the roads for now, and maybe we can practice your and Cass's driving in Repo Mantis' junkyard if Mikey can convince him."

That seemed to placate him enough, although he still looked plenty guilty as his feet shifted awkwardly.

"Sorry about the car." If April hadn't seen his lips move, then she likely wouldn't have heard him.

"Pssh, it's fine. I'm sure Donnie would have lost his mind with all his genius energy and nothing to do with it if nobody ever broke anything. Think of it as us three keeping him sane." 

Casey allowed himself to smile as April eased Cassandra out of her confrontation (fight?) by covering the ex-foot general's eyes and dragging her back by her hoodie, smiling awkwardly at the convict.

"Unhand me, O'Neil!"

April sighed as Cassandra allowed her to guide her to their holding cell.

"Good news is we're out in an hour or so. Donnie's taking care of the fees."

Cassandra pried April's hand from her eyes so that she could cast the convict one last glare, and pointed at her own eyes with two fingers, then flicking them to the convict, in an 'I'm watching you' gesture. However, even as her feet dragged on the cold floor, she allowed April to move her, which April supposed was a good sign.

As the lock clicked behind Casey, and April relinquished Cassandra, the latter sat with her legs crossed. April lay on her back with her legs propped up against the stone wall. She was suddenly exceptionally glad that they all had jackets on them, even if Casey's 'just in-case' hand warmers had been confiscated, along with everything else in their pockets and hands.

April supposed there were worst times to have been arrested, not even counting if any of them had been caught from the pictures taken during what Mikey had abbreviated to the 'Krangvasion' because boy would that have been a loaded conversation. At least by now, her human friends had learned to dress like humans, even if they couldn't drive like them.

Casey had situated himself in a corner, every few seconds his eyes would make repetitive rounds around the cell as if he were waiting for Krang to slither through the barred windows or the vents in the ceiling and floor. April sighed to herself -- the future boy hadn't given up his paranoid behaviors for anything since the invasion, barring pizza dinners and whenever the future boy played Mario Kart.

It was almost curious - Casey seemed to be trying to look for every conceivable problem known to humans, turtles, rats, or yokai whilst looking out for all of the aforementioned.

Looking back to Cassandra, April saw that the former seemed to have given up on demanding that their weapons be returned, as retrieval was imminent. Cassandra had situated herself nearest the bars in a perch-like stance.

An embarrassingly small amount of things followed in the stretching silence, especially since these were the two oddest, funniest humans she knew.

April supposed it was to be expected, especially considering that she hadn't exactly given the turtles the full story. The crash hadn't been strictly Casey's fault, and even so, he had reacted as April would have expected.

What had shocked Casey happened to be a relatively small portion - only about a foot or two in length, no more than half a foot tall - of Krang slime had emerged from a manhole.

If the phone call was anything to go by, none of the turtles were aware of it. Leo was the only one remotely capable of lying, and when it came to the Krang, the most popular reaction was to either break something or end up in a turtle pile - sometimes both, sometimes with the latter including their human friends. Either way, the turtles didn't know about the Krang's small return, and April intended to keep it like that unless Casey deemed it important enough to share.

Of the three of them, it was more his grounds for revelatory truths than April or Cassandra's.

However, after a numbing silence that stretched itself out, leaving recent events to linger with the three of them for who knows how long, April heard a familiar voice.

"Hey, girl!"

She sat up and saw Sunita - her slime yokai friend who so happened to be a cute fantastic friend and fighter - with her cloaking brooch on securely this time around, walk up to the holding cell as the hatch popped up, and she swung the door open by proxy.

"Sunita!" April cheered, and the Joneses' looked up as well. "Cass, you remember Sunita, you fought her when Leo and Donnie were dressed like old ladies and we were playing Lazer tag, remember?"

"I do recall. Lazer Tag is sacred." April and Sunita nodded.

"What's Lazer Tag?" Casey asked in a small voice, and Sunita's gaze flicked to him.

"Oh, you poor soul! I'm taking you to Lazer Tag. Saturday good?" Sunita asked instantly, and Casey blinked.

"Is it?" he responded in a tone of slight hysteria, like he wasn't sure if Saturday was cursed or not.

"Yes, you need to get out more," Cassandra said before turning to Sunita. "You were a worthy opponent, friend of April O'Neil," Cassandra said and extended a hand for Sunita to shake. "I am Cassandra Jones. You may call me Cassandra, Cass, or Casey."

"Nice to meetcha on the same side, Cassandra! I'm Sunita," the yokai said with a dashing smile that caused April to feel a little warm around the general region of her face, even if it wasn't directed at her. "Maybe you wanna come with me and your friend to Lazer Tag?"

"I shall attend!" Cassandra announced and pumped her fist into the air.

"And you've already met the other Casey," April continued, drawing Sunita's attention to her as she gestured to Casey, who was standing up as he watched Sunita carefully. Not unkindly, April made sure to note as she spoke. "Bit of a long story, so we'll tell you on the ride back."

Sunita waved to Casey, who waved back after a moment, as if realizing that was the appropriate thing to do, before offering a slightly belated smile of his own.

"Nice to meet you, Casey. Leo and Donnie are waiting for us with their ride, so we just gotta grab your stuff before heading out!"

Upon doing so, all three of them were significantly disenchanted upon the realization most of their weapons and tools had all been tampered with.

Cassandra's naginata had been visibly bent back into its original shape, although she re-bent it almost immediately.

Casey's hockey stick's chainsaw function had been removed, the small blades on their track removed separately, and he gathered them in a bag for reassembly.

Casey also managed to keep several weapons on his person, the same as his mother. Upon determining from fingerprinting that neither of them had committed any war crimes, Casey's grappling hook and Cassandra's blades were all returned, although promptly thrown out by the two, both claiming that any sort of tracer was dangerous. Besides, as Casey was quick to point out, they had a surplus back at the lair.

April's bat, it appeared, had remained untouched. She counted herself lucky Casey had used up his stash of the herbicide chemical that April had taken from one of Eastlaird's biochemistry labs that turned out to be lethal against the Krang, and the very same that Donnie had been replicating for such an occasion as today. If he hadn't, then there surely would have been questions, none of which any of them could safely answer.

But, one part of April's brain reminded her, Donnie would notice that Casey, the one whom you could count on to use resources sparingly, if nothing else, was out of the chemical, and he was the only one who had left the lair with any.

April had only just realized it as they stepped over the threshold, and saw the turtle tank within walking distance from the parking lot.

"Casey," she whispered to the future boy, and he leaned over to hear her properly. "I think we're going to have to tell Dee about the you-know-what. You're out of the chemical from my school that kills it, and you know how he gets about using it for anything short of another apocalypse."

Casey seemed to be slowing down as he took it in. "So, it's either we tell them or Donatello finds out."

April nodded. Cassandra had also slowed down, and April supposed she shouldn't have been surprised that her former enemy had been listening to the entire exchange.

"Do you want to tell them, or should Cass and I?" April whispered back, and Casey shrugged subconsciously before delivering his answer.

"I'll tell them. I crashed the car, after all."

April shared a small glance with Cassandra before Sunita turned around to look at them.

"Are you three doing good?"

"You betcha, Sunita!" April hurried to supply as the other two rushed to confirm it and picked up the pace. April could see the tank more clearly now, next to a car dealership. The large doors opened, and the four of them all checked a rough 360 degrees before entering, Cassandra pulling up the rear, and walking backward.

Casey's POV

Casey was currently regretting absolutely everything. The only good news he could gleam was that inventory wasn't ever taken until Donatello could spare more than ten minutes, back at the lair.

"Hey, could you drop me off at the Met? I've got a project I should get started on over there," Sunita - Commander O'Neil April's friend asked Donatello. Casey couldn't recall a Sunita from the apocalypse, so he figured she was either frequently gone, or had been one of the first to be killed or lost abroad.

Donnie must have nodded or something of the like because Sunita started heading towards a seat with a smile. As April and Mom Cassandra started towards the area where he assumed Sensei Leo was, he figured that was likely a better option than standing by the doorway. The retrieval was done, and he wasn't even the one retrieving, he was the one to be retrieved.

"Well, Case, good job," Casey turned abruptly and saw Leo standing there with an expression portraying vague pride, smugness, and utmost correctness. "You crashed your first car!" He held a three-fingered fist up but didn't follow through on what Casey had been sure would be a soft hit to his shoulder.

"What are you-"

"It's a fist bump, Case." Leo was looking at him like... Well, Casey wasn't sure how  Leonardo was looking at him. It wasn't a face he'd ever seen the ninja make before, closer to a soft grimace than anything else.

"You make a fist," Leo waited for Casey to follow through, "and bump it against mine!" 

Tentatively, Casey brought his fist against Leonardo's, and the latter grinned smugly, like always.

"Good job. Sometimes people do an explosion with a fist bump -" As he saw Casey's expression move in time with his rampant confusion (why would anyone have a bomb for a fist bump) he moved to explain: "Not an actual explosion! Like this, watch."

Casey did so as he lowered his fist, and Leo brought his own two fists together in a soft bump before drawing them away from each other, expanding his fists into open-palmed hands and making an exaggerated explosion sound.

Casey raised his fist again, and they brought their fists together, making that exaggerated explosion noise again.

"Nice," Leo said. Casey smiled to himself with the knowledge that he had done it right.

"Sincerest apologies for the interruption, but crashing a car is not an achievement, Nardo!" Donnie called from the driver's seat, spinning in it so that for about half a second, you could see a glaring softshell from any given angle.

"Hey, we've all done it, hermano.  That makes it an achievement."

"Since when have I ever crashed a car, dearest brother?"

"Since you tried the auto-drive program on this very tank that you came up with, as I do recall!"

With a huff, Donnie spun his chair back to the windshield. "Well, I didn't give that elderly woman a heart attack, who is, might I remind you, the same woman whose 95th birthday our dear, dear brother Raphael ruined."

"Oh yeah, how's she doing?"

"Dead! Very, very, dead, Leo! Deader than the deadliest death that has ever been accosted by you dum-dums!"

The tank came to an abrupt stop, and Casey could see from his limited view of the windshield that they were in front of a grand building, the paint job on the upper-east region looking like it had been scrubbed with a giant piece of sandpaper, due to the Krang that had, until recently, been doomed to reside on it, and very nearly did so for more than a few hours.

"Your stop," Donnie said, spinning slightly to look at Sunita, who chirped out a 'thank you' to Donnie and a 'goodbye' to the rest of them before disappearing into the crowd.

"So... How was prison?" Leonardo asked, leaning back so he had Casey, Cassandra, and April all in his line of sight.

"It wasn't prison, blue one. We were briefly contained," Cassandra spat back, with a sour look on his face.

"In a jail cell. That goes on the record, you know."

"Whatever you call it, it was boring," April said, leaning even further back and landing on her back. Casey took the moment to pull her up, and they caught each other's eye, exchanging a glance with anxious overtones.

"Are you sure about this?" she asked without hardly moving her lips.

After a small pause, Casey nodded, equally inconspicuous.

"What's everyone whispering about?"

Apparently not as inconspicuous as they had both apparently thought, as Leonardo leaned over to better hear their conversation.

"Uh- Nothing! Just something Casey's gotta talk to you guys about!"

Casey swallowed nervously. Now there really isn't a way out of this, he thought to himself. He sent April a small glare, to which she gave him a look reminiscent of one he recalled Commander O'Neil using several times whenever anyone was being particularly dense.

"Alright. Don-Tron! Casey's got something he wants to tell us."

Donnie spun around, raised an eyebrow, held a soda can, and offered it to Leo.

"Spittake," he explained. Well, there was definitely going to be a use for that, Casey thought as his internal struggle increased. "Just don't get it remotely near the controls or I will dropkick you out of this tank."

Ignoring the threat (if it was even a threat anymore), Leo just nodded before responding: "Good thinking, hermano. Watcha got for us, Case?"

Casey took a deep breath as he chanced a glance out the window - the tank was maybe two minutes out from the lair. At least that was good.

"Well... It's about the crash. It-"

Leo cut over him before Casey could deliver the blow.

"It's fine, I don't know a single person who hasn't crashed a car. If they can drive a car, they've crashed it."

"It's not the fact that we crashed a car, it's..." Casey paused and tried to think if there was any way to sugarcoat what he was about to say, dress it up and soften the blow. He decided that there was not any sort of way to do so and that the only way was to bite the bullet and spit it out. "It's the 'why.' The car crashed because we came in contact with a small portion of Krang--"

If anyone ever cared to check the Turtle Tank's camera footage, they would be able to time it down to the exact second that everything spiraled out of control.

Casey paused mid-sentence to gauge the two turtles' reactions as to whether or not he should continue. As it happened, he discovered that he should not, thank you very much, as of about two seconds later, and the tank descended into the lair. Donnie inhaled as Leo continued to stare at Casey as if he had been Krangified.

"I'm sorry, for a second there I thought you said that the Krang are back?" Donnie asked, and his voice shook at the name.

"Only a little bit," April helpfully interjected from a few feet behind Casey.

"What car did you use, I will find it and scour it until I can find how it got in there, it will be gone in a matter of-"

"It wasn't in the car," Cassandra said slowly, cutting Donnie off, and the soft-shelled turtle tapped his hand on Leonardo's shoulder a few times before Leo blinked and took a breath, leaning against the wall of the tank.

"I saw it in the road and kind of freaked out," Casey continued. "Then I grabbed the chemical that Donatello replicated and used it all on the Krang. So, sorry for wasting-"

"Sorry for..." Leo repeated Casey in a low, soft voice before trailing off, and letting out a huff of air. "Casey, we have so much of that stuff, right, Don?" Donnie nodded, looking just as stricken as Leo looked and Casey felt. "Right. So that is the least of our concerns,  mi amigo.  Right now we have to figure out how the Krang got there and found you."

"Right, right," Donnie said distantly, but Casey noted that his death grip on the chair was tightening with each moment. Leo's own gaze was banging off the walls, ceiling, and floor as if expecting the Krang to jump out from nowhere. Casey would be lying if he wasn't paranoid at the moment either, and he cursed the policemen for dismantling his own weapon.

"Well, it came out of a manh-" April cut herself off, and Casey whirled around to look at her, and his mind was firing on all cylinders again, hoping upon hope that he wouldn't see the Krang spreading across her, eyes where eyes shouldn't ever be materializing-

But there was no pink slime, no off-colored or extra eyes, no scalene tentacles or spikes protruding from the wrong places. Just the April O'Neil of twenty-two years ago (or the present, time travel was still so confusing) with a fist closed over her mouth in an expression of deep thinking.

Then her eyes widened, and as Casey reflected on his ex-Commander's words, his own followed suit.

"What? Where'd they come from?" Leo asked, a nervous laugh teetered on the edge of his tone.

Casey cleared his throat of the bile gathering there and prayed that his tone would remain steady.

"Um," Great, one word -- no, not even a word, an onomatopoeia -- in and he'd failed at that. "The Krang are in the sewers."
