TMNT HEADCANONS - Taking naps with the turtles / having a sleepy S/O
Tumblr media
As someone who has accidentally slept for 23 hours straight and literally has a nickname as “snooze” I’m obligated to do this (I tried to look for a cute / aesthetic gift but that pup is my spirit animal fr)
I’ve been digging how @oozedninjas does their Headcanons (as long with their writing, I seriously eat it up everytime yum yum yum)
as much as I love looooong Headcanons, sometimes I only have some blurbs going on in my mind, I also think this keeps things so dynamic, every interaction can be seen and everyone is happy yipee (I hope you don’t mind me using your writing style? Headcanon Set-up? Layout? as reference! Pls let me know if so, I’ll def take it out or reference you on new ones!)
English is not my first language and I didn’t proof read this, if there is any gramatical erros pls don’t hesitate to tell me!
• Isn’t the one for naps, lowkey thinks it’s a waste of time, he rather do activities with you! Time is precious! That being your hobbies or his, talking, playing games or reading, he has his mind set on it… until you flutter your lashes at him, giving him puppy eyes, and suddenly at the warm of your embrace, the way you hum over his plastron, how cute and serene you look… he starts questions himself, why haven’t you two done this sooner?
2003, 2012, Rottmnt Donnie
2003, MM Raph
2003, MM Mikey
All Leo’s (minus MM and rise) lmao
• Has been waiting for it. Since you two have been officially a thing, he has been patiently waiting for it. wants to do nap dates, casual napping after Sunday lunches, accidentally napping from watching a boring film, coming home late and you are tired? Lay on top of him babe, let him will take care of you 🫶🏼 adores the innocence of holding you close, caressing your skin as you caress him back, finally admiring your features while you sleep, he longs for it, absolutely eats it up
MM AND ROTTMNT LEO !!
2007, 2012, ROTTMNT, Bayverse Mikey (keeping bayverse and 2012 still would be A Task (but anyways BOTH WANTS IT) 2007 is probably tired all the time bc of his gigs lol)
Bayverse, ROTTMNT RAPH !!!!
2007 and 2003 Donnie
• How come you are always this sleepy? This doesn’t make sense, something has to be wrong with your vitamins levels, have you been sleeping at night? Are you having nightmares? What kind of meds are you taking? Your sleep schedule and how you can just simply fall asleep everywhere is astonishingly worrisome, he will look into it
Take a wild guess (all versions)
Doctor feelings
• HE is the who Needs a nap. Drag him to his bed. Hold him close, put ambient music, kiss him softly and don’t let go.
2007 Leo, Future!Rottmnt Leo
2003, 2007, Future!Rottmnt DONNIE !
Future!rottmnt and Last Ronin Mikey
Future!Rottmnt, bayverse, 2007 Raph
Everyone in IDW-TMNT
Not a turtle, but Rottmnt Casey Jones
• can’t take naps (light sleeper or doesn’t want to mess their sleeping schedule) but enjoys you being by his side anyways, will give a dirty look to whoever makes loud noises next to you, tries to always save the most comfortable spots for you on movie nights, he knows you are bound to fall asleep. will takes embarrassing pics of you tho
Take another wild guess (all versions)
And another one (all versions as well)

Just a little tipsy, I swear (rottmnt x reader)
Tumblr media
summary: the turtles discover how clingy you get after drinking one too many.
relationship: Rise Leo, Raph, Mikey, Donnie x GN reader (separate)
warnings: mentions of alcohol, fluff, maybe secondhand embarrassment? lol please read the reader and turtles as aged up to what the legal drinking age is where you live! F/n = friend’s name.
word count: 3.2k
A/N: tysm for the request! hope i made it justice :) also sorry Leo’s is longer than everyone else’s,, can you tell who my fave is? sdfsdf
(english is not my first language. constructive criticism and grammar corrections are very appreciated!)
– – –
It had been a while since the turtle had heard from you; the last couple text messages you had left on read. He knew you were at a party with your friends, and had insisted you tell him when you went home so he could accompany you. It was 3am already and still no news from you. He was starting to get a little worried.
Just as he took out his phone to message you again, the device rang in his hand, your name appearing on the screen.
🔵 Leo
“Y/n! What’s up, you having fun?” Leo greeted you after picking up the call.
He didn’t get an answer however; he just heard you giggling and some shuffling sounds.
“..Hello, you okay?” he tried again.
“‘m ready for pick-up” you slurred. He snorted at how wasted you sounded.
“On my way, send me your location. You still at the party?”
“Yessir” you answered, blinking at your phone, trying to find the option to share your current location. Instead you turned on your front camera.
Leo laughed at your face, how you squinted at the screen, not quite comprehending why you were seeing yourself.
“How much did you drink?” he laughed.
You counted on your fingers, thinking hard, but lost count at 7 and just shrugged at him.
“Just stay there okay? I’ll be right there!” Leo grabbed swords, ending the call.
Within seconds a portal opened a couple metres behind you, and through came your favourite turtle.
You hadn't seen him yet, and as he was approaching you, his phone pinged: it was you texting him, saying how much you missed him, and that you needed cuddles, and he should hurry.
On one side he found it very cute how clingy you seemed; it was the first time he saw you this drunk.
On the other side a mischievous grin formed on his face as he was already planning how to get the most out of it, probably take some pics or videos to embarrass you tomorrow with.
You were waiting outside your friend’s house where the party was still going hard. Music and flashing lights could be seen and heard from the street.
You were waiting leaning onto a tall planter by the sidewalk.
Leo approached you, greeting you with a peck to the cheek. You leaned into his touch.
“I missed youu~” you whined and hugged him. “Next time we gotta ‘ave a biiig party in the lair”.
“Yeah yeah, we can have a one next time” he said, patting your head.
“This party doesn’t seem over though? Were you not feeling well?” he said, pointing at the house still in full rave mode.
“It wasn’t fun without you there” you mumbled into his plastron. “Wanted to see your face”.
He blushed at the loving smile you were giving him. How could you still look this good in such an alcoholised state?
“Well, here I am” he finally said and tried to separate you from him, but you only hugged him tighter. “We gotta get you home tho. You’re pretty wasted.”
“I am not” you scoffed, taking a step forward to prove how sober you were, and immediately losing your balance.
If it weren’t for Leo who effortlessly caught you mid-air, you’d have landed face-first into the ground.
You grabbed onto him for dear life, and he wasn’t really complaining.
Since you were kinda not really able to walk, he picked you up bridal style as he made a portal leading just outside of your place.
You didn't even notice you were already home; holding onto him you kept telling him how much you loved him, how good he looked, how strong he was, etc etc
He soaked it all up like a freaking sponge. His ego was through the roof, and he even encouraged you to shower him with more compliments with “You really think so?”s and “How come?”s.
After some minutes, he tried to set you down so you could both climb through the window, but you didn’t let go.
“Y/n please, we can’t both fit through at the same time. Can you stand?”
But you were in full koala mode, shaking your head and holding on tighter.
He sighed; you’d really be the death of him.
Making yet another portal, he got both of you inside.
Finally arriving at your bedroom he gently set you down onto the bed with a grunt.
Leo had to fight you for a couple seconds to pry your arms from his shoulders. Had you always been this strong?
“Noo, don’t go” you whined, holding his hand.
“I’ll just get you some water, I’ll be right back”. Picking out your PJs from the dresser, he set them next to you on the bed. “Meanwhile change into these.”
Leo left to get you your water; he brought a pitcher and a glass, as well as some aspirins.
As he set everything down on your nightstand, he saw you had managed to change but your shirt was on backwards, the tag sticking out under your chin.
You were lying with your legs to the side, dangling off the bed, your torso contorted in an angle that could not have been comfortable, your hair and arms sprawled all over.
Leo took a couple pics from different angles, holding in his laugh. The idea came to him to get a marker and scribble something on your face, but you suddenly shot up, sitting on the bed.
“What is it? Do- Do you need a bucket or something?” he feared you were gonna be sick, already standing up.
But you only exhaled in relief when hearing his voice.
“No, ‘s okay. Thought you were gone” you lied down on your back again and scooted over, patting the space beside you.
“Will you stay with me a while?” you asked, your voice no louder than a whisper, and Leo felt like he combusted on the spot.
The way you looked so enticing right now, all he wanted was to devour you whole. But you were in no state for that.
Getting comfortable next to you, you tucked your face into the crook of his neck.
“I really did miss you. Wish we could hang outside more. There’s so much to see and do”.
“Really, like what?” he tucked a strand of hair behind your ear.
“Like, hot dogs. And Pretzels. Deep dish pizza.”
“I think there’s more to New York than food. Are you hungry?” he chuckled softly, but you didn’t answer. You were already fast asleep, your even breathing fanning over his plastron.
“Good night Y/N” Leo kissed the top of your head and pulled up the covers over you both. He made a mental note to take you out on a picnic date sometime soon.
🔴 Raph
“Y/n! Is everything okay?” Raph asked, his voice laced with worry.
“Hey big guy~” you slurred. He blushed at the unexpected tone. “‘m ready to go home.”
“On my way! Just stay where you are okay? I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”
Instead of a response he heard an “Oof!” followed by a crash and your groaning.
“Y/n! Are you okay? What happened?”
“…Fell.”
“Are you hurt? Just- Stay where you are and don’t move. Got it?”
“Aye aye captain” you saluted, forgetting that he couldn't see you.
Before heading out, Raph quickly grabbed the first aid kit.
He was so worried it only took him 10 minutes to get where you were.
He found you on the front lawn of your friend’s house where the party was still going loud.
You had taken the “don’t move” to heart: there you lied, face-down in the grass, a broken vase next to you.
“Why are you on the ground, you’ll get a cold!” he scolded you as he picked you up.
Turning you around he saw your tears streaming down your cheeks, to which he panicked.
“Are you hurt somewhere?” he frantically checked over your body, looking for any injuries. “Please say something?”
“It isn’t the fall that hurt” you finally whined. He tilted his head in confusion.
“Was it your pride?” he asked sympathetically, but also with a chuckle.
“Nooo” you whined again, wriggling in his hold. God, you looked so cute right now.
Raph wiped some mud off your cheeks, asking “Where then?”
“Here” you answered, hitting your chest twice with your fist over where your heart would be.
“Huh? Did someone say something?” Raph questioned, 100% ready to storm into that house and throw hands.
“My friends don’t believe me you exist” you said and wiped your dirty sleeve over your face in an attempt to dry your tears, instead spreading more grass and mud over your face.
“You know I can’t exactly waltz into a room of humans” Raph said sheepishly and rubbed his neck, but deep inside he knew what you meant. He also wished he could take you out to ‘normal’ dates and places like restaurants, and not just ones in the Hidden City.
“I knooow, but sill” you continued whining, this time lightly hitting his plastron with your fists.
“I just wish I could show them what an amazing, thoughtful, strong and handsome boyfriend I have! Who cares if you’re a giant turtle? I don’t!” you explained, trying to stand on your own but failing, falling right back into Raph’s chest.
His gaze softened and he chuckled, endeared at how open you were being about him. Maybe he’d have to get you to drink more often, just in a safer space.
“Alright, let’s get you home then.”
He picked you up effortlessly and carried you all the way home.
All the while you kept holding onto him and peppering his face in kisses here and there.
Once you both arrived, you climbed through your window first, stumbling to your living room, where you opened the balcony door for him.
You kept whining about how he was the best boyfriend and no one believed you because they hadn’t seen him.
Meanwhile he was wiping the dirt off of you, answering with “Uh-huh”s and “I know”s here and there.
When he finally managed to get you changed and tucked you into your bed, he got you something to drink.
You gulped down the glass of water, and intently looked at him with half asleep eyes.
“What is it Y/n? Do you need anything else?” he asked, and you took his big hand in yours.
“Stay the night.” you finally said, it was more of an order rather than a question.
Still you were giving him the most adorable puppy eyes he had seen you make yet.
Engraving this moment into his memory, Raph chuckled.
“I’ll shred your bed to pieces if I get in there with you” he admitted sadly.
“Let’s make a fort then.”
And with that you hopped out of bed, losing your balance once or twice on your way to the living room.
You dragged some blankets and all the pillows you could find in front of the couch.
It looked more like a nest than a fort but it still looked inviting.
You got in there, cosying up, and patted the space next to you.
Raph lied down behind you. You liked being the small spoon; it made you feel safe and warm in his arms.
Turning around one last time you kissed him tenderly.
“Thanks for always putting up with me” you whispered and wished him a good night.
“Anytime, sweetheart” he responded, and you were both quickly pulled into dreamland, lulled into sleep by each other’s heartbeats.
🟠 Mikey
“Yellow~?” Mike answered the phone.
“Mikeyyy~” you whined.
“Yes Y/n?”
No response. Just some giggling.
Then some shuffling sounds and laughter in the background.
“Is this Y/n’s S/O?” an unknown voice asked.
“Yeah, what’s going on? Are they ok?” Mikey started to panic a bit.
“They’re fine, just wasted. Can’t even walk in a straight line.”
“I’m not! Just a lil’ tipsy is all” he could hear you retort in the background.
“They’re more than a ‘little tipsy’. I’ve never seen them this drunk, it’s kinda hilarious to be honest- No! Y/n! Get out of the aquarium!” Mikey heard some laughing and splashing. Just what was going on?!
“I’ll be there in 15 minutes! Just, keep an eye out for them please? Thank you!” Mikey said and your friend agreed to have them at the door by the time he arrived.
He hurried to get to the house the party was at, it was probably the place of the person on the phone.
Hiding behind some bushes first, he saw you coming out the door. You spotted him and waved, saying your goodbyes to your friends.
Once they were out of sight he walked towards you, and just in time, because you very non-elegantly fell down the few steps on the porch.
He caught you by your waist, and you let him hold your whole weight, because your legs had just decided to stop working.
“Hmm” you hugged him and talked like you were telling him a secret. “I don’t think I can walk.”
“Yeah, you don’t say” Mikey laughed and picked you up.
That’s when he noticed your left arm and leg were wet up to your elbow and knee.
“So, I take it you had fun?” he asked as he started the trip to your home.
“Yiiiis” you giggled. “F/n has an aquarium! With a turtle, I swear it looks just like you, it’s so cute”.
You started crying remembering just how adorable the little reptile was.
“But not as cute as me, right?” Mikey asked, wiggling his eyebrows.
When you didn’t answer, he gasped in mock offense.
You laughed through your tears. “Of course you’re the cutest. The handsomest. The bestest.” Between every wrongly declined adjective, you gave Mikey a kiss on the tip of his snout. “But the other turtle’s a close second.”
He giggled and kissed your nose as well.
You were especially cute when drunk, he noted.
Having arrived at your place he considered if he should stay a bit longer to make sure you didn’t hurt yourself.
“Can you walk now?” he asked, setting you down. Your bones were jelly and you just crouched on the ground.
“Yes” you said confidently, when clearly you could not.
“Alright” he laughed and helped you climb through the window.
He turned on the small lamp on your desk, at which you hissed and covered your face.
“Let’s get you ready for bed” he said and guided you to the bathroom to change into something dry, and to clean yourself from the faint aquarium smell you had.
Once you were in your PJs he took you to your bed, but you didn’t let go.
“Y/n, you need to sleep” he said, tugging at your arms, but you were holding onto him for dear life.
“Noo” you whined. “Stay the night. I’ll be lonely without you.”
You were looking up at him with so much love, your cheeks adorned with a blush. How could he say no?
“Scoot over” he finally gave in and you giggled in glee, making room for him.
But being next to Mikey wasn’t close enough for you, so you climbed on top of him.
“You comfortable up there?” he chuckled, to which you nodded your head and sighed contentedly.
Mikey’s arms snaked around your waist and he kissed the top of your head.
“Good night Y/n~” he whispered, but you were already fast asleep.
🟣 Donnie
“Well, look who finally decided to pick up the phone” Donnie said in mock offense; he was clearly glad you finally gave some life signal.
“I- I think ’m lost” you slurred your words.
“Wha- Wait. Did you leave without me? I told you to wait at your friend’s until I came to pick you up” Donnie scolded you, earning a whine from you, as he was typing frantically into his computer.
“Can you describe where you are or what you see?” he asked, but he was already pulling up your location on his screen. He could both track your phone and the subcutaneous tracker he had put on you, just as on his brothers, because better safe than sorry, right?
“Uhm- I’m in the United States. I think. Everything is spinning around, wee~” you giggled.
Donnie groaned as his GPS triangulated your location. It beeped and showed where you were standing: behind him.
“What-“ he started and spun around, only to see you wobbling into the lair.
Donnie hung up the phone and walked towards you.
“Hello? Hellooo~?” you spoke into the phone.
Seeing he had hung up, you started wailing softly.
“I’m right here” he sighed and gently grabbed you by the shoulders, stabilising you.
“I thought you ‘ere gonna leave me” you cried, holding back your sobs.
“Why would you think that? I would never- oomph!” you let your phone and bag/purse fall to the ground, hugging him tightly.
“Y/n, work with me, please” Donnie said, noticing how you were kinda just hanging from his neck, letting him support your whole weight.
He tapped your thigh, indicating for you to lift your legs, and picked you up.
Your legs went around his hips, and he held you by your thighs.
Donnie carried you to his room while you sniffled into his bandana, staining it in tears and probably a bit of snot.
“How much did you drink anyways?” he asked you, trying to set you down onto his bed, but you weren’t letting go.
“Jus’ a lil’ bit”, you lied, remembering the beers and shots you took one after another, your memories becoming fuzzy after your friend had brought a huge bottle of a mysterious blue-greenish liquid.
“Can you please let go Y/n” he sighed. “You need to sleep, and I need to work.”
You shook your head, making you slightly dizzy.
“I wanna stay with you” you said into his plastron.
Donnie took a deep breath and exhaled, readjusting your weight in his hold.
“Fine. But you better not complain over how hungover you’re tomorrow, you hear me?”
“Promise~” you happily said and kissed his cheek.
He entered his lab, you immediately hissing at the bright lights.
“You sure you wanna stay?” he smirked. You only nodded your head, hiding your face in the crook of his neck.
Donnie sat down at his table, with you straddling him, and adjusted your body so his arms were under yours, and he could look over your shoulder. It wouldn’t be easy but he’d be lying if he didn’t like feeling your weight and warmth on him like this.
“I’ll try to finish quickly so we can go to bed okay?” he pecked the side of your face and went back to work.
You sighed happily into his neck and mumbled sweet nothings to him.
He couldn't make out everything but he did catch some “I love you”s and “You’re the best boyfriend”.
With a light blush and a soft smile adorning his face, he finished up his work quickly, leaving most of it for tomorrow, so he could have you cuddle him to sleep.

Hiya!! 🌙⭐ Space anon here! I got inspired by lil 🐺 anon and I wanted to request theirs but the opposite! Basically someone who looks like a cinnamon roll but will destroy you and your ego in 5 minutes or less if you do anything to tick them off !
Ofc you don't have to, have a wonderful day you awesome human being!!!
(If you did this already oh em gee I am so sorry)
Looks Like a Cinnamon Roll...
Tumblr media
RotTMNT & Casey x gn!reader
Warnings: aged up, slight mention violence (like the busting of kneecaps)
A/N: This was requested by 4 people at very different times... The other requests will be at the end. :) My first hc with Casey... Woo!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donnie
Loves your sweet exterior
But he loves your violent, daring personality
You 2 protect each other
He knows very well that you pack quite the punch
As he's accidently scared you a few times (man can literally teleport I swear)
Never again
He is a little scared of you
The first time you showed him how violent you could be
♡_♡
Both of you were pretty similar in that sense
Absolutely will help you beat the crap out of someone
We all know he's not against hurting someone to get what he wants
Leo
You're so cute and sweet to him
Then he saw how quickly you'd fight to protect your loved ones
or when someone insulted you
That was not the plot twist he imagined
Still absolutely enamored by you
Training buddies
Honestly he's never been more terrified than the first time you showed that side of you
But let's be real
He can get like that sometimes too
Mikey
Every underestimates the 2 of you
Both of you so sweet and kind...
Remember S1 Ep 11B? "Pizza Pit"?
Mikey definitely has a violent side
So he doesn't mind that you can be violent
Of course, Mikey prefers a more relaxed style
And always sees the good in people, but when he's really upset
You 2 are a force to be reconned with
Raph
Everyone is always scared of him
He's huge and an alligator snapping turtle
Which means his jaw strength is even stronger than a normal turtle... Which is terrifying
But who they should really worry about is you
Sure you look sweet and cute on the outside
But Raph has seen what you're capable of and knows to stay clear
He will try to get people to take back what they said/did so they didn't have to face you
It rarely works
Casey Jr.
Literal definition of this boy
He may look sweet, but he will absolutely bust kneecaps
He grew up during the apocalypse, fighting is what he's done his whole life
But he's really sweet any time there's no danger
So when you're the same way?
He doesn't even seem to notice
If you ever ask for help beating someone up, he's there
He'll help train you too
He wants to make sure you'll be safe no matter what.

Can you please do the tmnt bayverse boys with a female goth friend (bonus points if she’s a lesbian) and she’s trying to ask out her crush so the boys and April try to help reader on asking her crush out? If not that’s totally fine 😚🫶
Yes!!! Finally a TMNT ask <333
~~~~~~
Bayverse TMNT and April O’neil + Female Gothic Lesbian reader!
~~~~~~
Relationship: Reader x Female crush
Pronouns: She/Her
Type of Writing: Fluff
Warnings: Cussing
.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。. .・。
🐢 How could the boys NOT help you? You’ve been talking about this girl for MONTHS!
🐢 But of course ya’ll have to understand that they don’t really know how to ask people out or even talk to strangers. Before you and April, they were always in the sewers.
🐢 Mikey thinks he’s some sort of “love guru” and gives you tips on asking this girl out.
🐢 Leo is definitely trying to help you relax when you overthink about “if she likes you back or not.”
🐢 He also is the main man you talk about this girl with like- he loves you but, chill the hell out!
🐢 Raph is constantly teasing you about this crush you got. But is also asking what she looks likes.
🐢 “Damn Goblin, she’s pretty cute. I might try an save her one day and be her knight in shining… armor?”
🐢 I feel like Donnie would stalk her for you… NOT IN A WEIRD WAY! If thats even possible?
🐢 He tells you about all her socials and lets you know when she posts on platforms.
🐢 Definitely protects her from any hate comments or content made about her. Thinks she kinda cute but definitely doesn’t try anything.
🐢 April has mixed feelings… She’s really happy that you like her and wanna try and get to know her more but then- SHE GETS REALLY SAD WHEN THINKING THAT YOUR NOT GONNA BE HER ROOMMATE ANYMORE!
(For the sake of well- everything, lets name your crush Marianna and her code name is ‘Taki’ because she loves spicy food)
🐢When you first met Marianna she was… different. Always wanting to be by your side, always hugging or holding your hands. Marianna constantly “flirted” with you and says how much “ultimate rizz” she had.
🐢 Of course you felt off about it for a few months. Up to this point you were always made fun of because of your style in everything. But when this short girly ran into your life. Everything changed. Opposites attract right?
🐢 At some point in time, y’all started calling up to half an hour or even 2. Then it became FaceTime calls that were 6 to 7 hours long and ended with one or both of you falling asleep. It just felt right.
🐢 The day finally happened when you asked Marianna out- well actually… she did. You and her were out at the mall getting stuff and just walking around. This was a normal activity for you guys weekly. As you guys were walking done a hall with certain shops, Marianna dragged you into a family owned shop and said, “Wait here love bug, I gotta pick up a order if mine!”
You didn’t think much of it so you waited. When Marianna got back she basically pushed you out the shop and into the middle of the ‘hall of the mall.’
“(Reader)… I have a question I wanna ask.” Marianna said holding both of her hands behind her back. This kinda felt familiar… but how?
“Ummm sure, what’s going on?” You asked getting a little closer. Marianna at this time was blushing a little. Hard to see with her light chocolate skin color but still noticeable. She took a deep breath and took her hands from behind her back. You gasped!
She was holding a large bouquet of glitter (Favorite Color) flowers and a teddy bear that looked like a character from your favorite (Tv show, movie, series, anime). The bear was actually holding a stuffed heart that read “Do you wanna be my girlfriend?”
It felt kinda hard to breathe… you were smiling like a damned idiot but you didn’t care. You walked over to Marianna and held her waist with one hand and her chin with the other. “Why in the hell would I ever want to pass up a opportunity of a lifetime?” Both of you smiled.
Marianna then leaned forward and kissed you. You then followed her lead and kissed back. <3
The End

I CAME BACK FROM THE MOVIE LIKE AN HOUR OR SO AGO- AND HOLLY CRAP- Here is some stuff I will say and I'll give my review at the end.
I love how to movie doesn't waste time and immediately jumps straight into action and also the backstory of it's soon to be main villain.
The designs are really nice I like them a lot. They are nice to look at. Maybe for some it might take a while to get used to but their decent at best.
I enjoy that right when we are introduced to the turtles they don't waste time showing their personalities.
This movie's angst inspiration definetelly came from the fandom lmao
like bro they just threw a bunch of angst in there.
Speaking of angst, I like how they immediately establish how much the turtles genuinely wanna be accepted into humanity and how they don't hold back on making sad scenes.
I don't mind Leo's crush. It's cute and I like how it's depicted. It's not that focused on which I don't really mind. I don't know where I sit with MM Aprilnardo, I'll wait until the series drops or we get a sequel and see what happens. If nothing happens between the two then I guess I won't be too hard into it. Unless maybe we see April and Leo both sharing feelings or something. Though if April politely rejects him I'll leave it at that. Again I still don't know where to sit with this ship.
Splinter is cool and funny. Also- we don't talk about that scene with him and scumbug-
The backstory for the characters is sad and I like how you can genuinely sympathize with them and it's not forced or anything.
I-I-I-I-I-I had to look away at the Puke scenes and the make out scene- Yeah I did get second hand embarrassment with this movie-
I enjoy how cringey it is- Like I get second hand embarrassment and yet it's funny to me-
MondoMikey shippers DNI. They are cousins in Mutant Mayhem.
I love how the movie's style is that of 87 and take more inspiration from the 87 version though to me the personalities for the characters were a mixture of rise and 2012 with some inclusion of 87 as well.
I actually watched this movie in my language not the english one. Sadly I didn't record any of the scenes so I can't show it to ya'll. :( Mainly cause I assumed it wasn't allowed to be recorded.
Shocked I didn't cry at certain scenes-
I enjoy that each character shines in his own way and all of them manage to do so.
Don't lay a finger on Leo... I will bite your legs off...
Sadly me and my papa didn't stay until the cliffhanger but I watched it on YouTube though.
The animation kind of seems messy but I do feel like it's something a little kid would design and considering this is a kids movie and all it's understandable. Though it gives us a lot of funny expressions xp
Story is unique, fight scenes really fun and amazing, the ending felt deserved and overall I enjoyed it.
Now, I know Superfly is a villain and all but if I'm gonna be honest- He didn't deserve death. I wish he got a redemption arc. He's just a broken villain who I ended up sympathizing and understanding. Yeah he wasn't doing the right thing but can you blame him?
Off topic but what gender is Leatherhead-? I kind of got confused ngl lmao
So in my opinion, it's either 8.5 or a 9/10. Mainly because there are some cringey scenes that I did cringe at and ngl I feel like certain scenes's pace was kind of a bit too fast. I don't know really-
BONUS: My papa's thoughts on the movie:
Found it cringe and stupid
He prefers the old TMNT
Prefers it when they stick to the shadows rather then go to high school
He thought Splinter was stupid and how he said the old one was a 'badass mothefucka'. His words not mine.
He prefers when Leo is really serious and calm, Raph a hot head and constantly wanting to smash things, Donnie being calm and smart and Mikey- Mikey he didn't mind since he said he is always stupid and a dumbass- (not really his words but close enough-)
He found the story not to be that really consistent and also the animation to him wasn't fluid. He didn't think it was the best or that good.
The story is interesting to him and unique and all though.
Don't hate my papa pretty please-
He pretty much grew on the 87 and OG comics. He kind of also probably had to deal with watching with me and my bro the TMNTs we grew up with. If anyone's curious, my bro grew up on the 2003 and kind of also 2012 since we both binged watched it a lot every time we came back home from school meanwhile I grew up on the 2012 but also in a way with 2003. Mainly since I have a few memories of seeing some episodes of it so I know some stuff.
Anyway- his score is a 6/10 for the movie and he says that is a VERY generous score.
Extra add in:
I realized my outfit looked similar to April's- Just- it had different colors and- I'm white as fu- Loved April a lot in this movie by the way.
I watched it with 3D glasses.
They were also selling masks of the TMNT. I only saw Raph, Mikey and Donnie but not Leo. I didn't buy one by the way-
I annoyed my dad with how much I was jumping and kicking my feet around.
And yeah that's all-
Loved the movie, I enjoyed it, I hope ya'll have enjoyed it as well and yeah!

🌿🍒 tmnt (2014/2016)
You're so sweet to be doing this again. I just wanted to say I love reading all your matchups and find them really sweet and cute. I hope you're having a wonderful holiday season because you totally deserve it!
I'm an introvert, quiet and slow to warm up but once I'm comfortable I'm a bit... Quirky. I can be silly or reserved depending on the situation. I'm loyal above reason once I've decided I trust someone. Seriously, once you're on my list of "the good ones" I got your back. Unfortunately I don't seek new company out much so keeping to that point can be tricky.
In my down time I like to draw, read, and just hang out. My home is full of fur babies and whoever I'm dating has to love animals too. I'm always down to chill and play videogames but I also enjoy martial arts and have two black belts in different styles. I'm looking to start a style now. I always enjoy the holidays no matter what I'm celebrating because I like having an excuse to spend extra time with the people I care most about 💕
Thanks, yeah everything's been alright so far ^^ 😀
🤔 Your match is...
Raphael (2014/2016)❤
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Big Red has fallen for you
He doesn't know when or how
He just did
He is neutral to animals though most animals take a liking to him... and then he loves them as his own
That's all he is, a gentle giant underneath the rough exterior
Even though his personality was opposite from yours, he became friends with you
Then wanted to be more than friends
He actually liked Christmas, just not as much as Mikey
He had his brothers and Splinter all this time
But now having you was a nice addition to the family
During Christmas Eve, he was anxious to see you
Mikey teased him about it, but paid him no mind this time
When he finally gets you alone, he wraps an arm around your shoulders, pulling you into him
What you didn't notice was that he had mistletoe in his hand, now dangling it above your head with a grin on his face
He liked seeing you blush
But then his while expression softened as he leaned down to leave a slow, sweet kiss on your lips
"I love you so much" he said, dropping the mistletoe and holding and caressing your face in his giant hands
"I love you, Raph"~

Hey so like did you happen to drop a tutorial for how you draw the turtles and I somehow missed it???? Cuz.... if not.... and you're willing........ please *gets down all fours* just the tip please drop some tips-
Hello Nonnie 👋! I uh.... I can't really do a video of how my process goes from start to finish (I don't know how to link it without my irl name popping up), but I can talk about the tools i use and how I problem solve. I’m afraid my tips aren’t especially good because I’m flying by the seat of my pants and how I learned was to just —> do the thing and watch others.
Ok. So, I'm sure by now you've skipped to the image below, and you've probably hurt either your eyes or your brain with the amount of shit there. I'm sorry. Yes, there is a butt. We all got em. (if for some reason you find yourself buttless, i am sorry.) But I'm not hiding the butt, because well. It's just a butt *shrug*
Tumblr media
Alrighty Now I'll break down what that God Awful image above is. Starting in the Top Middle with Raph, that's me trying to draw with a perspective rectangle. To the right of that, we got arms and hands. Right below that, we got the basic shapes I use for a male torso (bigger) and a female torso (smaller) Below that, the infamous buttocks and hips. Basically a front and back shot of how that fits together. Then to the left of that we have the base sketch and final lines of my last Leo drawing. Right above that is a side view on how I'm trying to decide on how the shell works, and then little headshots of how I handle each turtle's face. Donnie is who I struggle most with, he has such a soft cute face but it's hidden under all his tech. In the middle you can see a sketch I did of Donnie in a hoodie, since I'm determined to put them all in clothes. Eventually.
[Dusts off glasses, squints, clicks projector button to move to next slide] Okedokie, I guess we start with anatomy, and understanding it. If you wanna draw anything, ya gotta know anatomy. Your "style" comes secondary to anatomy. If your anatomy is wack, no amount of dusting will fix it. And the more you draw/better you get at anatomy, the more "cheat" codes you unlock. So first thing you gotta do is draw ALOT and always be thinking about anatomy. It can be something as simple as looking at how people stand on the train, how they walk, big shapes and how they connect together. Or it can be detailed as what muscles connect and how they interact with each other to make the body move. You can also look at how other people handle anatomy, what they emphasize and what they put aside. I, for example, look at a lot of Frank Franzetta, Jeff Watts, and Patrick J. Jones. When in doubt however, break things down to the most simplest shapes and build from there.
Life long journey with anatomy aside, the thing I ended up focusing on when I draw the turtles is how I want them to appear. I deviate a lot from the way they are depicted in the films, and I think that's the most important part. Find a way to make them your own, in a way that's second nature to you, whether or not you take influence from others. For me, I wanted to soften them a little more, and get rid of that friggin flying saucer of a shell, even though I haven’t completely decided how I want to depict the carapace. There's a balance between making them recognizable and putting your own twist on it. You may not care about that though. I would just say find what works for you, and run with it.
You can also see that I am not neat At All. I like to feel around for lines and shapes a lot until I’m happy with how things look. I’ve been told my approach is very sculptural and “weighty”, and that works for me. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t care how other people do things, I like how I do things. And I think that’s very important for all artists. I think of things as three dimensional, and for some reason one day bayverse just clicked.
If I had one piece of advice, it would be to start light and don’t get overly committed to your sketches. I use photoshop and I knock the opacity of my brush down a bit while working, but I start with basic shapes and lines. Limbs are sticks and circles on where I think the elbow/knee “might” be, but if when I’m working on muscles or toning I find I’m off a little, I move the “joint” to where it makes sense. A lot of times I draw the head too big, and I have to size it back down, or the arms to short for some reason, and I have to drag the hand down. Idk. Practice makes you better. It’s not always a step forward, but it’s always a step in the right direction as long as you’re thinking while you draw.
If this spawned more questions, feel free to ask them- I don’t mind answering at all, even if it’s expounding on something touched here. Might drop some more of my messy sketch work if there’s interest

Congrats on 300 followers!!!
Can I request a fic with the disaster twins where Leo is really loopy because he’s tired and it drives Donnie nuts so he tickles him? :)
Sleep now
Tumblr media
This was such a cute request lolll. I love the disaster twins more than my own mother /j
Anyway I hope you like this!!! I had fun writing lol. Leo is such a dum dum.
Warning: None accept fluff overload
Summery: Leo is acting loopy, stubborn, and won’t go to sleep. Luckily Donnie knows the best way to convince him.
“LEO IF YOU DONT GET YOUR DUM DUM ASS TO BED RIGHT NOW I-“ Donnie yelled as Leo began doing cartwheels on the floor of the main room in the lair.
“But Doonnniiieee…” he slurred, “I stillll gotta eat dinner!!”
“You weirdo we ate dinner an hour ago!!! Food doesn’t digest that fast for you to be hungry!” Donnie reasoned with him, rolling his eyes.
“Heheh~ but you’re a weirdo toooo rememberrr? You nerrrd!!!” Leo said as he poked his cheek playfully.
“Leo, just go to sleep! The reason why you’re acting so silly is because you’re tired.”
Leo crossed his arms and sat on the floor, pouting like a toddler. “Nnnno!! I’m not going to sleep at all now! I’m staying right here for all eternity.”
Donnie crossed his own arms and gave him a threatening look. “Is that your final answer my sweet, sweet dum dum for a brother?”
Leo didn’t reply but gave a childish smirk as if to say, ‘try me.’
Donnie sighed. “Ok. You asked for this.” And tackled his twin to the floor.
Usually Leo could fight back against him, but due to his exhaustion that was out of the question for him.
Donnie sat on his thighs and pinned his arms over his head. “Because I’m feeling particularly nice and this behavior of yours is too adorable to be all that mad at, I’ll give you one last chance to surrender.”
Leo then blew a raspberry at his brother. Oh he asked for it.
Donnie shrugged and began spidering his fingers at Leo’s side. Leo was so tired that he couldn’t muster any energy to suppress his reactions. He burst into giggles and squirmed helplessly. “Dohohonihihee!!”
“Oh this is priceless.” Donnie said with a small chuckle, “it seems that your exhaustion has heightened your senses, therefore making you all the more sensitive to this. You might as well give up now brother.”
“N-neheheveherrr!!” Leo giggled stubbornly.
“I’m not even at your worst spot. I wonder what that would be like in this condition?”
He reached one hand behind him and began squeezing his thigh, just above his knee. That spot was a killer for Leo.
Leo gasped and erupted into loud cackles “NAHAHAHAHA DOHONIHIHEE!!!”
“Shhh you’ll wake Mikey and Raph.” Donnie told him.
“IHIHI CAHAHANT *snort* HEHEHELP IHIHITTT!!” Leo shrieked with a snort, kicking his legs around in hopes to stop the sensation or at least get Donnie’s fingers off of him. Of course it didn’t help.
“You’re snorting already? You must really be tired if you’re this sensitive right now…”
“AHAHAHA OHOHKAHAHY OHOHKAHY IHIHILL SLEHEEP!!!”
Leo was usually stubborn enough to resist, but the sensations on his thigh were driving him up the walls.
“That’s what I like to hear.” Donnie said with a satisfied smile. He got off his wrecked and out of breath brother to release him. Just as he made to help him up. He saw Leo had already fallen fast asleep.
Donnie couldn’t help but smile. He picked up his twin bridal style and headed straight for his room.
He yawned himself as he laid Leo down onto his bed and tucked him into the covers.
Leo must’ve really been exhausted, but Donnie felt relieved that they could both finally get rest.

these are so cute!!! if you’re still feeling energized for these… would you want to write some Leo and Raph post-movie? 👉👈
Ask and ye shall receive! <3 Sorry it took so long :0
---
The funny thing is, Raph barely remembers.
He remembers, viscerally, how the head Krang (Prime the voices supplied) had dug into his brain, using his own memories against him to hunt down his family. He remembers the searing pain, the terror, the illusion of freedom only to face his failure in the distorted form of his brothers, father and sister, walking corpses that spat hatred and bitterness, screeching “WHY?!” until blissful darkness took him.
He remembers how his shoulder and shell had pulsed with an ache like nothing he'd ever felt, the cold press of the solid tentacle that so easily pierced bone and flesh, his body trembling as he struggled to stay upright, conscious, just a moment longer.
He remembers Leo's face, the terror in his baby brother's eyes, his body curled around the key under Raph's shaking frame. He remembers Leo's quiet voice breathing his name like a prayer, then the muffled screams as Raph's escape pod encased him and shot him into the air—“Raph, wait, no! Wait, Raph! RAPH—!”
He remembers the heartbeats it took for him to get between Leo and the creature hell-bent on killing him—you idiot you JACKASS I told you to GO why don't you LISTEN oh god oh christ Leo Leo LEO NO—the pain of a blade scoring through nerve endings and the sickly warmth of blood dripping down his shoulder—it hurts it hurts I made it he's alive he's okay you're okay little brother I got you I love you I love you take care of the others be safe I love—to the moment the world went dark.
The blurry parts are every moment after. He has... feelings of the time he'd spent as a zombified slave, intents and ideals fed into him like sludge through a straw—the Krang are superior, you are the proof of our might, you will serve us well, squash them, kill it, kill him, KILL HIM—
(He thinks, sometimes, he can still hear it; the sweet nothings of violence the Krang had promised, a seat by the throne built over the bodies of millions, the corpses of his family.)
His left eye saw flashes of what his body was doing, moving to the whim of another, smashing and slicing without restraint, but nothing concrete. 
Not until he had Leo struggling to speak, to breathe with his hand (tentacle) wrapped around his throat. 
That part is crystal clear.
A part of him is glad it is because it brought him back to his senses, back to his family. The other part—watching Leo lower his hands, stop fighting, willing and ready to let Raph kill him—hates it with every fibre in him.
That his little brother's last words to him would be the most heartfelt he's ever said after two years of senseless frustration and quarrel, his last act of submission after years of posturing and arrogance to hide mountains of insecurity...
And then, of course, there was the sacrifice.
Listening to Leo's hollow laugh—“You're one to talk, big bro. Hero moves are totally your style.”—and watching from the ground as the portal closed, more powerless and useless than he's ever been... it broke something in him. 
I told him to step up to be a leader, a hero. I did this.
It hit him like a bus, and he fell to his knees.
I drove my little brother to kill himself.
And then Mikey pulled the fabric of reality apart with his bare hands and pure, untameable love, and they pulled Leo from the brink of death barely in one piece.
And then they go home. The world was saved, and the adventure was over. Fade to black, roll the credits, and happily ever after.
God, I wish.
Because it's been two weeks since then, and Raph remembers. And the piece of him that shattered when Leo shut himself in the prison dimension with a monster lies scattered in his heart like glass shards pricking his chest every time he breathes, every time he looks at Leo still recovering in the infirmary.
The Hamato clan prove their bond by hardly ever leaving Leo alone for longer than a few hours. Splinter soothes him to sleep with Japanese lullabies from their childhood. Mikey and Casey Jr bombard him with videos, memes, drawings and other goofy things to make him smile. Donnie uses him as a soundboard as he rattles off ideas of future projects, his tablet in one hand, his other laced with Leo's in an iron grip. April brings a wheelchair she'd 'sourced', wheeling Leo around at speeds that make Raph nervous until their whooping laughter fills the lair.
Even Draxum stops by to check on Leo's progress, help change bandages or fix stitches, and Leo lets him, more so after the goat Yokai admits in a soft voice they've never associated with the scientist that he's proud. Leo denies his tears, but they all know better.
Raph, meanwhile, does what he can and keeps his distance.
He'd hugged the daylights out of Leo when he first came hurtling through the portal, broken, trembling and terrified. Then the adrenaline wore off, Leo was laid in a bed, and Raph remembered oh, I nearly killed you with my own hands. I sent you to die.
He's as hesitant to touch Leo as he is with anyone coming near his face, his entire right eye a sensitive mess of slowly healing scars. Everyone has noticed, even Draxum, but they leave the can of worms shut for now.
Leo has noticed. And it's funny that after everything Raph put him through, he never flinches when Raph gets too close. If anything, he leans into it as much as he can, and it's Raph who backs away with a stuttering apology.
Raph knows it isn't right. His family assure him day in and out that it wasn't his fault, none of it was, and he believes them, he does. But he remembers how Leo's throat nearly gave under his strength, his hollow laugh and how he thought being a hero meant dying for the world because Raph pushed him too hard, and he falters.
It's the worst thing he could do to Leo right now; avoid him after he nearly died for them, but...
I nearly killed you.
It comes to a head one night, three weeks after the world nearly ended. Raph is laid out on his bed, settling in for the night with a book Draxum had lent him when there's a knock at his door. “C'mon in,” he says, and only after the door slides open does he question why any of his brothers would bother knocking on his door.
“Hey.”
He's ashamed to admit he jumps at Leo's tired voice in the doorway. And he jumps for real when he realizes his bother is standing—well, more leaning against the car door with his wheelchair behind him, his grin lazy and his brow drenched in sweat.
“Freakin'—Leo!” Raph scrambles off his bed, nearly tripping over tangled blankets. “What're you doin'? You're gonna pull a stitch again!”
Leo shrugs. “Wheelchair's cool 'n all, but it's weird if I have to look up and up at you when I'm trying to talk to you.”
Raph slaps a hand over his eyes and groans deep from his chest. “Swear to god, Leo—get in here.”
Leo grins and limps carefully over to Raph's bed, dropping onto the mattress with a sigh of relief. Idiot, Raph thinks half-fond, shutting the door and leaning against the headboard, crossing his arms and offering a smile he hopes doesn't look strained. “So, what's up? Leg actin' up again? Donnie's awful dubstep stuck in your head? If that's the case, bro, I can't help you—”
“Are you mad at me?”
Raph's jaws snap shut. He looks at Leo and—oh.
There's a hollowness in his eyes, resignation in his smile, and that cold, awful feeling in Raph's chest surges anew.
“No, Leo, no,” Raph stands up straight and moves to kneel in front of Leo, putting them at eye-level even as Leo averts his to his lap and twisting, still healing fingers. “I'm not mad at you. Why would I—what made you think I'd ever be—?”
“You're avoiding me,” Leo mutters, tapping his fingers and picking at the Jupiter Jim band-aids Mikey stuck around his knuckles. Raph watches, listens and regrets as Leo's chin wobbles, eyes shining. “You—I mean sure, you're there when I call you or, or when we're watching a movie with the guys or eating dinner, but—you haven't... you haven't looked at me, not really, since I got the all-clear from Barry. You look through me like I'm a ghost or, or something so small that I'll break, or you'll move like you wanna hug me then you stop and I don't—I don't know why.”
When Leo looks up, tears are spilling down his cheeks even as anger, confusion and an aching longing burn like embers in his eyes. Raph almost flinches.
“Didn't I do everything right?” he cries through sniffles and the start of a sob. “I stepped up, I took things seriously and—and I saved you, I saved everyone, I was—I was a hero, right? I mean, that's what you wanted, right? For me to stop acting like a know-it-all little shit who nearly gets his big brother stabbed and the whole world destroyed because of a s-stupid, stupid move, and—“ Leo ducks his head again, banging clenched fists against his skull as his shoulders shake with the force of his tears. “A-and you were right, Raph, you were right, and I, I know I already said I was sorry but please, god, just—tell me what I'm doing wrong, what did I do wrong? Why won't you look at me, why won't you hug me, Raph, I need you, please, just tell me, what did I do—!?”
Raph doesn't tackle Leo like he so desperately wants to—has wanted to for weeks—as his throat closes and his eyes burn. Instead, he reaches for Leo's wrists and pulls his fists away. Leo goes silent, frozen, eyes wide as Raph cups his face between his giant hands. 
The same hands that dealt lethal blows and nearly strangled him. 
The hands that also hoisted Mikey onto his shoulders for piggyback rides, gave punishing noogies that left them gasping with laughter and rubbed shells to soothe him to sleep after another bout of insomnia.
These hands belong to Hamato Raphael, who loves Leonardo more than life. And he'd been a selfish, blind fool to deny his brother an ounce of that out of fear when he needed it more than ever.
“Leonardo,” he says, surprised when his voice doesn't break as his heart did with every word out of his brother's mouth. “I'm not mad. I've never been mad for what you did. Scared outta my goddamn mind? Yeah. Scared that I might hurt you again? Constantly. I know it's stupid because it wasn't me, it was them, but I... I couldn't risk it. I was... I was still scared and messed up.”
He swallows hard. “And I was... I drove you to get yourself killed. I thought you'd hate me for it. I hate myself for it, for everything I did that day. So I stayed away...”
Leo stares. Raph brushes a stray tear from his striped cheek with the pad of his thumb.
“But I had no idea what I was doin' to you by leaving you alone like that,” he admits, nearly ducking his head. He doesn't, because Leo needs to see, not just hear, how much he knows he messed up. “I thought you'd be afraid of me comin' anywhere near you after all that. I had no idea you were lookin' for me, Leo. I didn't know you felt that way. And I'm sorry.”
His right eye stings worse than the left as hot tears fall down his cheeks. He swallows a sob and pulls Leo's face closer until their foreheads meet.
“Leo, I'm so, so sorry. I never meant to push you so far, make you think you had to—to do that to feel worthy of anything. I get frustrated with you when you don't listen to me, or you go off on your own to prove a point, but, god—" He sniffles. "Before you're a hero or a leader, you're my little brother first. I love you, Leonardo. I love you because you're you. Nothin' you do will ever change that.”
Smaller hands clutch his wrists tight enough to bruise. “Even if—” Leo hiccups, “Even if I almost get you killed? Even if I piss you off and never listen and—”
“Even then,” Raph says, pulling back enough to grin at Leo. “Even then. Whether you pull some self-sacrificing bullshit and scare me to death, or you steal the last slice of cake I was saving from the fridge, I'll still love you. And Leo? I'm proud of you. I'll always be proud of you.”
Leo stares at Raph, wide eyes searching for a lie, a trick. There's none, Raph knows, but it twists something in him that Leo would ever think there would be. 
They should've done this a long time ago.
Then Leo's face crumples seconds before he bursts into tears. 
Raph breaks through every boundary and wall he'd made, pulling Leo to the floor with him and finally, finally, wrapping his arms around his little brother, holding him as close and tight as he dares. Leo throws his arms around his neck and squeezes, and it should hurt, would, if Raph were anyone else, but he can take it. He'll take anything, everything, for them.
“I'm—I'm s-so sorry, Raph,” Leo sobs, burying his face into Raph's good shoulder and clinging for all he's worth—so much, Raph thinks, he's worth so much, and he doesn't even see it. “I'm so sorry, I—I didn't mean to, I just—I love you, Raphie, I—I just, I wanted to—”
“Shh, I know, little brother,” Raph hushes, rocking them gently like he used to do when they were small. “I know, and I forgive you. I'm sorry I pushed you away like that. I didn't mean to, but it doesn't change that I did. I'm sorry. And I love you too. Always.”
Leo squeezes tighter. "I forgive you, too," he croaks. "Don't go away again. Jerk."
Raph's chuckle catches on a sob. "Don't worry. I ain't goin' nowhere."
(The shattered pieces in his chest pick themselves up one by one. They're crooked and bent, but they're lined with gold and stronger than ever.
Kintsugi, his mind supplies. Beautiful in its brokenness.)
Eventually, Leo's sobs ebb into sniffles. Raph nuzzles Leo's damp cheek against his and smiles. “I really am proud of you, Leo. But do me a favour?”
Leo sniffs. “Hm?”
“Never pull that shit again, or I will sit on you.”
That startles a watery laugh out of Leo. “That's—pfft—that's the best you can do?”
“Have you seen me, bro? I am a literal tank, I will actually crush you.”
"Fatty."
"Watch it, kid."
Leo giggles tiredly, drying his tears with the tails of Raph's mask. He doesn't let go, and Raph is in no rush to make him even as he grows heavier in Raph's arms, loose-limbed. Raph grins. “Tired?”
“Mm-hm,” Leo mumbles, nuzzling his face into Raph's shoulder. “...m' tired... carry me?”
Raph's sigh would make Drama-tello proud, put-upon as it is, but he stands and takes Leo with him, shifting him in his arms bridal style. He can see how damp Leo's face is, mask drenched with tear tracks, eyes red around the edges and damn, they should have done this much sooner. But they can start now. Raph can make up for it, for everything, now. 
“Where to, Blue?” he asks.
Leo huffs a short laugh at their father's baby names. “My room,” he says. He hesitates, then looks up to meet Raph's eyes. “... stay with me?”
Raph blinks. They have sleepovers all the time having spent most of their childhood sharing beds and rooms. But it's been a while, a long while, since Leo has asked to sleep with Raph. The twins usually seek each other out for comfort first, the rest of the family naturally gravitating afterwards. 
Then again, this is different. And Raph's answer would be the same either way.
He smiles. “Sure thing, little brother.”
(That's how Splinter finds them in the middle of the night during his rounds, squeezed together on Leo's narrow mattress, Raph's massive frame curled around Leo like a protective barrier. He smiles, tucks their blankets over them and presses a kiss to their foreheads. Right before he shuts the door, he sees them smile as they dream.
Nightmares can't touch them. Not with Big Raphie around.
And he always will be, fears and memories be damned.)

A hc of reader sister (little sister) who loves using memes sound effects to communicate with the family instead of her talk like " bruh " or " why are you running? ".
And it's fun because it makes everyone laugh.
Meme!Younger Sibling
Tumblr media
RotTMNT & gn!reader
Warnings: swearing, platonic fluff, what you say is in green
A/N: They are meme connoisseurs, Raph doesn't understand, but is supportive. Coloring the words took way longer than I thought... I have a 6 hour car ride to the hospital so ask away!

You got your taste in memes from your brothers
Leo and Donnie definitely have the most knowledge in memes
"Tight! So let me be, I'm here to give you customer service. and I'll set you free! (right)"
"Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Reese's Puffs! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up!"
It's almost completely random
They've learned not to ask what you're doing...
"Hey, what are you doing Waiting for them to play Gangnam Style..."
Mikey and Leo participate the most
At one point you were really into Bully Maguire memes
Raph was terrified of you
"I'm gonna put some dirt in your eye... W-What!? What did I do?"
Remember that video of the country guy standing on his truck with Nunchaku?
Yeah... That's a you and Mikey staple
"Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top. Sunkissed so hot it'll melt your popsicle!"
You, Leo, and Donnie are the most chaotic about it
Raph and Mikey are a little annoyed by the meme bond you guys have
"I got a plane! I got a plane! I love the fame! I love the fame! You know my name! You know my name!"
Being the 2 youngest, though, you and Mikey have something you will never have with the others
and that's having unlimited meme potential
"It's wizard time, motherfucker! Fire Ball!!"
Raph was very upset about this... ^^^
You are probably the only one allowed to chill in Donnie's lab because of your shared love of certain memes
He vocally stims in his lab and I have a feeling a lot of those are memes
"Wow... Your raps are too wack to handle. Let's do this like we do on the Discovery Channel!"
Leo is the one you go to if you want to recreate some dance you saw on TikTok
And he's very good... It should be a crime
Leo also quotes the Pedro Pascal edit that went around...
"How would you like to ride home on a real cowboy? I got a 6 pack of cold ones all nice and my roomies out all night, so you can scream my name as loud as you need to, sugar."
Is anyone surprised by that though?
"Aren't you excited? You're going to the airport tomorrow! Ehrpohort? I'm not going to the ehrpohort."
Although Raph isn't that knowledgeable in memes, he does know some
"Excuse me, brah. You're excused.... But I'm not your brah..."
Just random things they'd quote:
"I'm almost proud of you... That's the most proud of me you've ever been!"
"Give me back my gamer girl!"
"Material girl!"
"Just got diagnosed with cool guy syndrome... Now I take Adderall!"
"Ugh, you can't sit with us. Actually, Leo, I can't sit anywhere, I have hemorrhoids..."
"Look at all those chickens!"
"Is this an internal dialogue? I can't see the end of the horizon... Hastune Miku!?"
"Its really cute how you're going to defeat me with the power of friendship, but again, I am da Devil... From da Bible..."
"Hey~... What's up... It's me!"
"Whopper. Whopper. Whopper. Whopper. Junior, Double, Triple Whopper. Flame Grilled taste with perfect toppers. I rule- I rule this day!"
"You're an asshole, Leo. You are what you eat, Donnie." I'm so sorry...
"Freddy, you're supposed to be on lock down... VanessaAAAAAA!" When he's been working in the lab too much
"Nah, nah, nah nah. Nah, nah, nah nah, yeah. You're are the music in me! You know the words 'once upon a time' make you listen... There's a reason!"
"HOLD ON! HOLD ON! SO HER SISTER WAS A WITCH, RIGHT!? AND WHAT WAS HER SISTER? A PRINCESS! THE WICKED WITCH OF THE EAST, BRO... I'm gonna stab him..."
"Laloyd? That's right! It's me, your son! And it's Lloyd, Dad! No. L-l-o-y-d. I named you. You ruined my life! How can I ruin your life? I wasn't even there!"

Okay, first, I need to say the latest chapter of "A Place for Crows" is amazing! Second, how do you think the ROTMNT family would get along with the Madrigals?
Ah thank you so much ❤️🦋
I think they would all be a little bit weirded out by each other, the Madrigals more so of course since the turtles are already used to more mystic stuff than just themselves. But they'd get over it quickly.
Mikey and Donatello would be obsessed with Casita. Mikey of course cause it's fun to play around, slide down the stairs together with Camilo and Mirabel and Antonio and stuff. Donatello cause he wants to know how it all works or rather how he can replicate it with his tech. His smart lair kinda backfired but he never stopped dreaming of trying again and succeeding. Maybe Casita's 'functions' can give him some inspiration.
Also, Donnie would be so dismissive of Mirabel's sheepish explanation of "I don't have a gift"
"Scoff!" he would say. "Who needs gifts if you have a big brain and science! I know tech is not quite a thing here yet but let me show you the beautiful world of physics and Newtons three laws of motion"
The Madrigals are all like "awwwww" while the turtles just go "Oh shit".
The Madrigals find it cute until Mirabel gets a gleam in her eyes and almost breaks Camilo's nose with a trap she invented for when he enters her room without asking.
("Needs some adjusting" Donnie mutters while his big brother chews him out)
(Camilo forgives her very quickly when her next invention, a hot air balloon, fulfills his dream of flying)
For Leo I'm gonna indulge all my headcanons: he is the teams medic and so he would be all over Julieta and her cooking. He can't make magic food but some pointers for delicious chicken soup are very appreciated. But he is still a teenager and hanging around an adult all the time is so not his vibe (no matter how motherly she is and how warm and fuzzy her attention makes him feel inside) so I also imagine him spending lots of time with all the kids but especially Dolores. The gossip that girl can tell him! Hell yeah! And he can Portal the two of them right to the gossip so they can see it first hand, hehe.
Raph is a no brainer. He takes one look at Luisa and sees a kindred spirit. They both drink tea and lament over little siblings and their antics and even more over their own strength and how hard it is to be careful all the time. I think both of them will greatly benefit from each other and from giving each other tips. They will become attached at the hip.
April hears how Isabela changed her appearance and is still looking for her true self and goes full fashion and life style coach on her. April knows a thing or two about trying to be normal and fit in only to realize that the only thing you need to be is yourself. Isa is just fascinated with this confident girl who takes no shit and embraces her own self. She wants that too.
I don't have a real reason for this except that I really want to see Casey and Bruno just sitting a bit outside of the chaos and relaxing with some nice arts and crafts. They are both happy that they are back with family but it can all get a little bit overwhelming at times so it's nice to have someone who understands and has no problem just sitting side by side in silence and enjoy their families laughter and joy until the batteries are refilled and they are ready to rejoin the madness.
Alma doesn't know what to make of this little rat man (who btw fascinates and freaks Bruno out a little) but when they get to finally talking (being the family heads that they are) they realize that they have a lot in common. Splinter knows how it is to be overwhelmed by a legacy that was thrust onto you and that you didn't really want. How you'd rather have your beloved mother/husband back and how you feel that you can't let them down but go about it in all the wrong ways, almost alienating your family in the process instead of holding them close. The crushing weight of it all and how it makes you lose sight of what is important.
Splinter knows a thing or two about that and realizing that gives Alma some peace. They often sit side by side and watch their families, thankful for the second chance they were given.

hey howdy hey, guess who it is (hey now, back again!) i know i keep coming back again and again, please don't get sick of me/lh!
ok ok so uh,,, how would the turtles react to having an s/o who is VERY into the decora kei subgenre (i.e, bright colors, puffy underskirts/clothing, a thousand different hair clips, sanrio themed purses/accesories, etc.)... but they're in trouble- they overhear (like the s/o scream or something), come to help, and like,,, the s/o has everything under control. the patent leather pumps they always wear are now stepping down HARD on the assailant, that little cute My Melody purse now has the straps wrapped around their neck in a chokehold, etc.
tbh, I have never heard of that style before now, but with the contrast between the initial description (plus a Google search) and the end of your prompt, I'm all for it.
And hey y'all, I am back from the dead. If I'm honest, I likely won't post as much but I'm here now. Lets a go.
Leo
He would try to understand the subgenre/subculture so he can keep an eye out for things you would like
He often has April do shopping runs when he finds out a specific store has something you would like
(She always tells him, "You owe me one," but doesn't really mean it. She does love the things he picks out for you.)
He would most definitely panic if you texted him you were in trouble
You guys have your locations shared with each other, which helped him find you quite easily
But when he got there, he actually panicked even more
He was also kind of scared (But he'll never admit that)
There were a total of four assailants
You had the chain of your purse choking one of them
Another was already unconscious
A third was halfway conscious, and Leo was sure he had at least three broken bones in his legs.
The fourth you had pinned under your foot- the heel of your shoe was one millimeter away from breaking the skin of his neck.
You look at him and smile for a second
"Wanna help?"
"Oh shit, yeah."
He takes care of the one who had your purse chain around his neck
You end up kicking the one under your foot, which ends up knocking him unconscious
"What happened?"
"I panicked. I was just trying to get some snacks."
You pulled out a small pack of macarons from a nearby bakery
He just awkwardly laughed at the fact you went from knocking out four grown men to your usual self
You notice but don't say anything
Raph
He handles everything a bit differently.
He finds Decora Kei a bit weird at first
He doesn't get the appeal
But then you guys actually meet in person, and he gets it
Compared to the bland colors of the city, he loves the colors of the style
He doesn't go as far as Leo does with getting you gifts, but he does knit some things for you once in a while
Bright pink fingerless gloves, a bright yellow scrunchie, thick multicolored socks for when the colder months come, and other stuff like that
When you received the first gift, you were confused
You loved it but were confused
But then you saw pieces of yarn stuck to his clothes occasionally, and you put the pieces together.
He would leave them on your back patio and stuff for you to find.
Anyways
He would get freaked out if you said you were in trouble
He was able to find you, and when he did, he was afraid
Very afraid
There were three unconscious men at your feet, and you were currently beating the ever-loving shit out of a fourth
It took you a minute to notice him
But when you did, the guy you were beating was unconscious
"Remind me not to get on your bad side."
"If you keep knitting me things, you'll be good."
You laughed when he got flustered.
Donnie
He knew of Decora Kei before you guys met.
When he found out you were into it, too, he was so excited
He is able to 3-D Print some personalized hair clips, bracelets, earrings, etc.
If there was anything you wanted, he would make it for you.
He had always wanted to make stuff like that before but never knew what to do with it after- he knew his brothers would judge him for it.
But now that he's with you, he has a reason to make everything and has someone to share that general interest with.
When you called him to say something was wrong, he was out on patrol and absolutely panicked.
He felt that you were stronger than you let on but had no way to prove it, so he had offensive weapons ready- just in case.
But when he got there, he was immediately proven right
You had only one shoe on- the other was heel-deep in the throat of one of your attackers.
You had knocked the second attacker unconscious with your bag
You also had the third attacker at knifepoint with his own knife to his throat.
"Hi, Don."
"Hi? That's what you have to say?"
"What else is there to say?"
"Fair enough."
He tied up the one you had at knifepoint as you tied up the one you had knocked unconscious.
Neither of you worried about the one with a shoe sticking out of his throat.
Neither of you talk about this in the presence of his brothers, either.
Mikey
He immediately loves all of the colors.
He begs you for some of your spare hair clips even though you don't know why
Then, after a while, see the clips on the strings of his bandana and his necklaces.
He loved watching you get ready.
Seeing you go from your boring work uniform to your usual style fascinated him.
He valued every part of your passion for Decora Kei, which you're not quite used to yet.
Having someone who appreciates your style "just because" is a foreign concept.
He's also your biggest fan, especially when you're trying new makeup.
Anyways
When he gets your text saying you're in trouble, he almost brushes it off
Many of your older skirts had been ripping lately, so he thought another had torn.
But then you called, and he heard other people in the background that didn't sound all too friendly.
When he found you, to say he was surprised was an understatement
"When did you get a bedazzled pocket knife?"
"Last week- I had it personalized."
He piled the three attackers in the back of the alley, left a quick note for Vincent apologizing, and then took you home.
He would not stop admiring your pocket knife.
