question:
do you agree that donnie and april are (platonic) soulmates? yes or no?
(i say yes)
Platonically, it’s hard for me to say that she’s not soulmates with all of the turtles because I mean look at them:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They all love her so much and she compliments all of their personalities and quirks while still being her own adrenaline junky, sassy, and headstrong self. She’s funny like Leo to the point where she’s dropping one liners and puns in the middle of battle (and upset when Leo gives that part of himself up in Insane in the Mama Train), she’s got Raph ability keep the boys in line (at least sort of lol) while having his quick to leap into action and never give up attitude, and she’s charismatic, bubbly, and encourages being emotionally open like Mikey.
However, I also believe it’s no coincidence that her and Donnie have complimentary color schemes. I think they work so well together because in a way I think Donnie is the most “human”. He wants to go to school/college. He appears to want to fit in somewhere in the human world the most out of his brothers. April is a bit of an outcast herself and doesn’t really appear to have many friends before the turtles show up. They sort of meet each other in the middle of their crazy worlds.

Raphael (NSFW Alphabet)
Bayverse Raphael x F!Reader
Our big guy is my second installment. Word Count: 1700. Mentions of exhibitionism, dirty talk, choking, and just general debauchery. I love him.
Raph is a brash, sassy, and gruff person most of the time around most people. It’s a blatant act. It takes extremely little to reveal an extremely sincere, loving, protective, passionate soul, and it’s a side of him reveals to his partner often. ESPECIALLY in the bedroom. Sex is extremely intimate with him, even if he’s being rough. 
Enjoy!
Tumblr media
A- Aftercare (What they’re like after sex) - Raph is the one who needs aftercare tbh. He’s a little clueless about what aftercare even is though. He’s loopy and tired and he just wants to kiss and hold you, and unless you speak up and ask for water, a towel, wipes or a snack- he will stay right here with his arms around you. He's a touchy guy, okay? It feels like he’s recharging. If you try to get up, he will pull you back and whine, “What do you think you're doing,” and if you tell him you that you need something he will push you back down, huddle you into the pillows and blankets and go get said items for you. 
B - Body Part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partners) - He loves his arms and tattoos and scars. He knows he looks cool. But he does NOT know he is attractive. Or sexy. Verbal affirmations are overwhelming, especially about his appearance. So be gentle with him about that haha. On you, on the other hand. Ass man. Ass man. Ass man. Ass man. He is checking you out, he is grabbing you, he’s spanking and pinching your ass 24/7.
C - Cum (Anything to do with cum) - He needs you close physically. He is grabbing you and holding you close. In missionary he always presses his forehead to yours. Doggy, he nuzzles your hair and buries his face in your shoulder. He loves when you hold his face and keep your eyes on him when it hits. He swears a LOT, and he’s trying to breathe, so if he kisses you it’s super super messy and pathetic in the midst of orgasm. If you’re going down on him or if he’s going down on you, he’s always searching for your hand. Will grasp your hand or arm, and oral get’s intense for both parties, giving or receiving so the connection is needed. 
D - Dirty Secret (A dirty secret of theirs) - Actually doesn’t watch porn. He doesn’t like it, and he associates it with a lot of the bad people he faces topside. Feels dirty and thinks it's a dishonorable thing. He doesn't know he's the only one.
E - Experience (How much experience do they have) - Because how little exposure he allows himself to sex, and how little he’s entertained the thought of actually having a partner, he is going in completely- and utterly - blind. At least beyond basic, basic 'what goes in what' stuff. He has no idea what he’s doing. But that won’t stop him from pretending he knows. If he’s allowed complete control the first time, it will end HORRIBLY, so please PLEASE don't let him take over. Allow him to slow down and mess up, he will feel so big and clumsy and ugly so he requires lots of affection and reassurance. And PRAISE. He's a super, super fast learner.
F - Favorite Position - He isn’t picky, but he loves when you get him to relax against the headboard with all the pillows and you ride him. He loves that comfort and he gets to watch and touch and feel as much as he wants. But if he has to pick a favorite…he loves doggy. He feels big and strong and he loves that he can kiss and talk to you in the same moment he can pull back and enjoy the view. 
G - Goofy (How goofy are they?) - He won’t goof off until you do, but damn it’s a relief when you do. He feels enormous pressure to do well by you and not hurt you. So when you flirt or joke it’s an enormous relief. Give him some time to get used to fucking because he loves to laugh and tease you. 
H - Hair - He does not care.
I - Intimacy (How are they during the moment) - Raph doesn’t really know he does this, but intimacy comes so naturally to him. There are moments when he’s almost innocent in how much he fucking adores you and needs you. So it can get super emotional super super fast. 
J - Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon) - Masturbation is pretty low on his list of stress relief. When he’s frustrated or stressed or anxious he is in the gym. Then he has like twelve other different hobbies outside of the gym he falls back on often. There isn’t a whole lot of privacy in the lair, and out of everyone he isn’t that desperate for privacy either. 
K - Kink (One or more of their kinks) - Raph learns very, very quickly that he’s super into dirty talk and praise and begging. Giving and receiving. Words of affirmation are super big for him, and it shows in the bedroom. He loves reassuring you and telling you how much he wants and needs you. If you beg for him he'll give you literally anything you want. Very big into choking or holding you down. You weight two pounds to him, so manhandling you in bed or even standing is so exciting for you both. 
L - Location (Favorite places to do the deed) - He doesn’t like anything super sexual around his family, but he does not care anywhere else. He doesn’t care if ya’ll are at risk of being seen or caught or heard- if you are down, he is down and he will make it work. 
M - Motivation (What turns them on) - Okay, he’s a slut for your body, so your ass, for one. The second most motivating thing is compliments and physical affection. You start feeling up his arms or waist or dipping your hands in his back pockets, all while telling him how handsome he looks right now- he’s sold instantly. 
N - No (Turn Off’s) - Doesn’t like it when his family is around. He wouldn't want to be in a threesome ever. Not at all into the thought of someone else touching you. 
O - Oral (Preference in giving/receiving) - He loves the pleasure of receiving, and there are times when he NEEDS the worship and loving's from you. But damn…he prefers to give, and he is really, really, good at it. Really good. He could eat you out for hours and hours. He gets pussy drunk so easily, especially if you're praising or begging for him, or scratching and petting his head. Damn he loves it.
P - Pace (Are they fast/rough or slow/sensual?) - He can do both. He sometimes gets a little lost in the moment and is especially when he’s close, so he can get a bit rough. He struggles to stay slow, especially if you’re talking to him and petting him. 
Q - Quickie (Their opinions on quickies) - He likes them a lot, because it makes him feel desired and attractive. If it’s been a while and you REALLY need him in an area around his family (say, at the lair) he gets SUPER nervous and subby. Will do whatever you want. 
R - Risk (Are they games to experiment? Do they take risks, etc) - Raph is the kind of guy who falls into a routine, so while new stuff isn't a problem, he might take it as he’s doing something wrong or ‘you're not satisfied with him anymore’. So just a lot of communication and assurance will make him an easy sell. 
S - Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last) - Superhuman stamina. He could have you in bed all day. 
T - Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them?) - With lots and lots of assurance and communication, Raph wouldn’t see toys as an insult or replacement for him. He would be uncomfortable and a tad bit insecure at first, especially at first, and is NOT the type to have his own collection. But with time and age he would master them. He wouldn’t like to tie you up often. He likes you touching and holding him too much. 
U - Unfair (How much do they tease) - Give him some practice and confidence and you will unlock a horrible GREMLIN of a tease. He will tease, flirt, tempt and touch literally all the time, in and out of the bedroom. PDA be damned. 
V - Volume (How loud they are, what sounds?) - Raph’s more growly and grunty by default, and he swears a lot. He likes to talk, and he gets good at it quickly, but his sounds only start getting strained, desperate and emotional the closer he gets. 
W - Wild Card (Random) - He’s so big, that one time you came just from his dick pushing into your pussy. It lives rent free in his head and it boosts his ego for ages…
X - X-Ray (What's going on in those pants) - Team cloaca, here. Raph is fucking…huge. Giving him a bj is a sloppy, wet and messy event. You need tons of prep, lots of foreplay and lube despite all the extra lubricant from both of you. He is large, even proportionate to him and that means he's massive in comparison to you. It’s a lot of work to get him inside of you and it’s kind of the opposite of a problem for you both. 
Y - Yearning (How high is their sex drive) - He yearns for you all the time. His drive is enormous, and he could hole up with you somewhere for days and never leave, if it was possible. But your desire for him matters greatly, so his desire for sex depends greatly on yours. If you want to fuck, he will make that happen, but if you don’t want fuck, he REALLY doesn’t want to fuck. If you turn him down once, it will be your turn to initiate the next time you are in the mood. 
Z - ZZZ (How quickly they fall asleep afterwards) - Depends on the circumstances. He is a very sexual person, so a good fuck won't necessarily be what tires him out. But if you're loving on him and giving that physical and verbal affection, and he knows that there is nothing left to do but cuddle and fall asleep; he will pass out instantly. But be careful. He's heavy, it's hard to wake him up, and he snores.

How they met you Bayverse TMNT
Tumblr media
A/N: I kind of felt like writing something with the turtles again. :3 In my private time I have written a lot about them (especially about Donnie) and I could publish my stuff here :D (Picture from Pinterest!)
Warnings: Mention of weapons and violence
Part 2
__________________________________________
Leonardo (Strangers to Lovers):
On the night patrol, Leo had decided to split up a bit
On the roofs, he looked closely at the streets and alleys to ensure the safety of the city
At a traffic light, Leo saw you
You were standing next to an older lady and you were chatting with her as you helped her across the street
Your smile was gentle and loving as the older woman laughed with joy
Leo looked at the scenario for a while before you and the older woman walked across the street
When you were on the other side, you waved to the older lady and then continued on your way
Leo briefly looked after the older woman before following you over the rooftops
He followed you until you were at your apartment and put some food out for the street cats
With such a simple action you had Leo's full attention and he was happy that there were still people like you
He made it his own mission to take care of you
Raphael (Cinnamon roll and Guard dog):
Raphael spotted you while he was on patrol
You were backed into a corner and threatened with a gun. The thief wanted your valuables and all your money
Raphael immediately intervened by throwing his sai so that the weapon was knocked away by the thief
Then he grabbed a few bricks and threw them down to knock out the thief
The thief ran away while you still stared up to see your savior
Raph saw a dark corner where you couldn't see him and he jumped into it
"Give me back my weapons."
You had thrown them into the shadows as you silently looked in his direction
You thanked him several times before you stood up and tried to walk towards him, but Raph immediately growled loudly, making you jump back
"Can I meet you again?" you asked him
Raph just huffed before climbing up and leaving you alone
Donatello (Sexy sassy and timid nerd):
Donnie sometimes sneaked into famous universities (without Leo knowing) to see what it was like at a public university
He also saw you quite often during class
Donnie found you very interesting, even though you never really listened, didn't take notes, and never participated in class, you got good grades and got through every class
You were quite popular, with the boys and girls, but you had rejected everyone
One day Donnie had put his number in your bag, hoping he could get to know you better
He knew it was risky, but he wanted to try it. His brothers simply weren't allowed to know
Of course you found his number and called him immediately, but it was a video call
Donnie had always taped up his cameras, but it still scared him. Then he answered
You talked for a while and he had to spend a really long time proving that he didn't go to your university but was homeschooled
You had a good time and even became friends
Donnie found himself admiring you as you still had your camera on and sometimes smiled into it
Michelangelo (Aggressive chihuahua and calm giant):
Mikey had spotted you when it was Halloween and everyone was out celebrating
He snuck out and tried his luck at talking to you. He always got along well with his looks, including you
You had put on the Hogwarts uniform and even had a wand
Mikey complimented you and you had a very long conversation, which you both enjoyed
You told him that his costume looked incredibly realistic, to which he could only giggle nervously
"I've been working on it all year, little one."
His little nicknames for you always made you giggle and his heart fluttered every time he heard it
But when Mikey was whistled back by Leo, he staggered towards you in disappointment before disappearing into the crowd so that no one noticed him anymore
You were disappointed that he had to leave, just like Mikey was disappointed to leave
Since then, you came to the place where you met every day and Mikey saw you there all the time
But Leo had forbidden him to talk to you

Hi its 🐺 anon! Could you write the rise turtles with an s/o who looks really intimidating at first but is a total cinnamon Roll?
Intimidating!Reader
Tumblr media
RotTMNT x gn!reader
Warnings: fluff, aged up, inferred to be yo'kai/mutant but not explicitly mentioned
A/N: I've been told I'm pretty intimidating, so I tried my best! Raph is definitely like this...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Donnie
Normally people stayed away from him
He wasn't intimidating so to speak, but he just looked mean
Like one wrong move/word and he would destroy you verbally
Then he saw you
It wasn't love at first sight, he doesn't believe in that
But after seeing you interact with Mikey he started having feelings
If you get along with his favorite brother, you're gold in his eyes
People didn't approach you because you were intimating, could probably beat up anyone that laid eyes on you
No one approached Donnie because he will destroy their confidence, ego
But he knew the real you
He'd do anything to make you smile because it made him happy
In turn, you'd try to make him smile
You were always gentle with things, especially Donnie's projects
You gushed every time he made you something
He's down bad
Leo
He's extremely friendly
He's charismatic and sassy
People tended to like him or be pretty neutral towards him
You made him anxious, all he could think about was how you could obliterate him with a snap of your fingers
Once he saw you out with friends, you guys were grocery shopping for an elderly lady that lived next door
He fell hard
The next time Leo saw you he swallowed his anxiety and talked to you
When you started dating, he realized just how soft you were
Always putting others before yourself, like he did
You would bake and cook with his brothers
You cried almost every time he bought something for you
You protect Leo at all costs
It made him realize why his brothers hated it when he did the same thing
Mikey
He can make friends with anyone
He's sweet and playful, an absolute joy to be around
So when he met you, he was terrified.
You were intimating like Raph, but he didn't know if you had the same soft center he did
One day when Mikey was out with Todd in the woods and he saw you
You were picking flowers with some kids
You'd told him you were a teacher and you came here with the kids often
Outdoor teaching and everything
He knew he had to ask you out
You beat him to it though
Dating was a blast with you
He joins you and your class outside most days, enjoying the sun
He spent a lot of time painting with you and other hobbies you both enjoyed
No matter how gently you held out touched him, you'd apologize
He never has to use Dr. Feelings or Dr. Delicate Touch
Raph
He's pretty intimidating
People avoided him, worried he'd pulverize them
The embodiment of "looks like he can kill you, is a cinnamon roll"
Much like you
When you 2 meet, he was very guarded, wouldn't let you close to his brothers
Raph saw you volunteering, helping others and he saw that you were like him
He made a plan to ask you out
Which failed, but you 2 ended up spending a lot of time alone together
You never ended up talking about dating, but seemed to come to that agreement
You regarded his siblings with soft words
You knew they weren't kids, but because of your intimating nature, you had a habit of doing so
Raph loves cuddling with you, although it's a little rough with his spikes and shell, it's enjoyable

Okay PLEASE I have to know your opinion-
So you know how sometimes you look at people and just like- yeah, they’d be a golden retriever for sure. Or a chihuahua.
If the Rise Turtles were a dog breed, what breed would you think they would be? I’m definitely seeing Donnie as a herding dog wanting everything to be organized his way, Leo as a guard dog, Raph would definitely be a giant ass clumsy dog breed that doesn’t realize how big he is. Mikey has got to be some type of hyper terrier of sorts.
fascinating question!!! behold the power of an autistic person who loves dogs and tmnt
donnie: dachshund
wow sam favorite breed for favorite turtle OK LISTEN THO!!! dachshunds are sooo smart but stubborn as hell and want to do things Their Way. picking up a new toy and instantly playing with it so hard it explodes into fluff. taking direction well but only if you have a good relationship with them and they trust you. sassy attitudes, a penchant to attach themselves to one or two people and be distant to others, looks great in cute clothes, a fragile back that needs protecting--DRINK THE KOOLAID!!!
leo: akita
so this one was actually also very easy for me. akita are very much Family Over Everyone Else, and i always see leo as being very protective of his brothers (to a self-destructive point even). they don't trust other dogs or animals (much like leo doesn't trust other mutants or yokai), but when it comes to their people, they're goofy little goobers that love to play and have fun and snuggle. they're super smart, but need good training in order to achieve their potential, otherwise they'll have a tendency to do their own thing and that never ends well. wow who put this picture of leonardo hamato in the akc handbook
raph: great dane
i was torn on this one thinking some kind of livestock guardian dog at first since he worries about his brothers so much and always puts their safety first. only problem is a lot of them are bred to have mild temperaments, and, uh, [gestures at raph]. for that reason, i settled on the great dane. they're guardian dogs who care intensely for their family and are very, very sweet. but their large size and caution against strangers is quite intimidating, and they need to be properly trained against being aggressive to strangers. also, yknow, big.
mikey: pumi
pumi are well-known small dogs that are work-hard, play-hard dogs with the CUTEST curly hair. sound familiar? they're pretty good at watching the family, but often times they're a bit too busy bouncing off in the corner because these dogs are like. adhd in canine form. always need stimulation. always need exercise. gotta bounce move play bark play run RAZZ MATAZZ. also they're cute and mikey is cute.

Hi, may I request an older brother Mikey holding his turtle tots brothers? (based off the scrapped episode)
No pressure I just really like your art :)
Tumblr media
(screams happy squeaky noises -Thank you)
I'm so glad you asked for that. I love the scrapped episode concepts so much, it really sucks we didn't get them, especially in the order they were supposed to be in. I'm not sure if that's exactly what you asked for but the vision wouldn't leave me. Mikey would be so sassy about... this whole situation. 😎
Tumblr media
Because I am a canon stickler I tend to invision the scrapped episodes as post movie (bc deep inside I still hope for season 3) so except the actual shenenigans, I think that this episode has great potential for handling Draxums redemption arc(bc It really didn't have enough time in the show to convince me 100%) It would be a chance for him to interact with turtle tots and fall on love with the babies in a way he couldn't in the past. Of course it would be shown in small little hints like giggles or soft looks, but that would be enough. (Or a full-blown realisation of what he lost and how amazingly unfair but beautiful it is that he has this short chance now)
Tumblr media
Also some fast sketches of Mikey losing his sanity after the cool sass passes and he realizes why Raph is such a hen to them all the time.

'My Brother's an Idiot' Blues
2012 Leo x reader
Part two to 'I've Been Tired'
Bad end: "No." and No pt.2
Good end: "Yes."
Chapter Summary: Discussions at midnight, an angry ADHD kid who somehow ends up the temporary family therapist while he wards off his violent urges, tough choices, platonic Raph & reader, and sleep deprived turtles.
...All in all, it was very fun to write.
***
  Raph punched a wall.
  Leonardo was an idiot.  
  Raph groaned, stomping on the ground. 
  “Why is the guy so obsessed with hanging out with The Shredder’s daughter who’s tried killing us  multiple times?! Leo’s gonna get himself hurt, and then what?! And it doesn’t help that none of them bother to listen to me ever, Spi-”
  He deflated, staring at the empty tank.
  “...Spike.” He mumbled, reminded of how his friend had become…Slash…and tried to kill his brothers….
  Raph swallowed, clenching his fists tighter.
  “You okay, Leo?’ Said Donnie from down the tunnels, in the living room. 
  Raph felt like screaming. They were comforting him, as if he hadn’t just gone off and risked his life for the millionth time! But when Raph did impulsive stuff, they just laughed or got mad! This wasn’t fair!
Raph punched his pillow, biting down the impulse to break something, and physically biting his mask tails.
  ‘Calming down’ was clearly not working, he decided as he spat out his even-more-torn-now-mask tails. …Time to go topside.
  Leaving the lair really did do wonders for clearing his head, he noted as he shoved the manhole cover up and emerged into the alleyway. The air was warmer and fresher, and- 
  “Ah!” He yelped, jumping back. 
   Someone had just thrown a rock at him?!
  There was a clattering sound from the fire escape, as if someone was jumping up from a seat.
  “Shit-” 
  Oh great, it was Leo’s crush. Of course you were the one throwing rocks at him.
  “(Y/N), seriously?!” Raph growled, glaring up at where you were perched on the fire escape.
  “Sorry Raphael.” You said, cringing as you looked down towards him. Admittedly you did genuinely look sorry, with tears in your eyes and regret written all over your face…and Raph doubted it all came from your overwhelming remorse for throwing a rock at him.
  Still, his arm hurt now, on top of everything else in his life, and Raph frankly didn’t care about whatever the hell your damage was.
  “Why the fuck were you throwing rocks at me?!” He barked, feeling slightly silly as he craned his neck up to meet your eyes.
  “Why the fuck were you in my rock’s way?” You said back, but your voice was flat and tired. The apologetic expression on your face had faded too, shifting into a bored and mildly disappointed look that Splinter wore all the time.
  “Well sue me for wanting a break from my-” fucking- no, that felt too mean- “ -stupid brothers. I can’t even leave the lair without someone messing with me, apparently!” He snapped, and he picked up the rock and chucked it as hard as he could at the wall.
  “Well sue me for wanting a pleasant and harmless way of relieving stress and anger.” You said, tossing another rock off the fire escape. Raph flinched as it sailed towards him, but instead of striking him, it hit the manhole cover a few feet away. He picked it up, taking in your words.
  Raph tossed the rock back and forth between his hands. “Stressed and angry?” He echoed, looking up at you again. 
  Honestly, the idea of you being angry, of all people, felt pretty foreign. Sarcastic, sure, sassy, definitely, and even irritable…but mad? 
  You frowned boredly, leaning your face on your fist casually as you stared down at him. “Well, dear Raphael, why else would I be out here throwing rocks off my fire escape? Target practice?”
  Raph spluttered, trying to think of a comeback. “Well- I don’t know, maybe?! How the hell am I supposed to know what humans do?!”
  “...C’mon. You’ve known me since the first time you guys emerged from the depths of the sewers, you’ve picked up some things…especially if your fun new vocabulary of non-Sensei-approved-language suggests anything.” You said bluntly, and he scoffed and rolled his eyes.
  “We’ve been over this already (L/N), I knew the word ‘fuck’ before I met you.” He said, crossing his arms as you looked at him condescendingly. 
  “Did ya Mr. ‘sewer apples’?” You teased, doing air quotes.
  “...You know I’ve watched TV, right?” He said flatly.
  “Ooh, Raphie’s seen PG13 films?! Gasp!” You exclaimed dramatically. He growled and chucked the rock at the fire escape.
  You jumped back as the rock hit the wall a few feet away from your head, and your eyes widened as you realized you were actually riling him up.
  “...Sorry, Raph.” You said finally, slumping over. “I’m mad and I’m messing with you because it distracts me from being mad.”
  Raph froze. He hadn’t meant to scare you…. He coughed. “I…I shouldn’t have thrown that, huh?”
  You shrugged. “Well, I guess we’re even now.”
  Raph sighed, letting himself relax a bit. “Well…it worked both ways. I…was distracted too.”
  “Still, you were obviously in a bad mood as it was, and I pushed ya anyways.” You said.
  “Well…I guess we’re even now.” Raph offered, echoing your line.
  You smiled. “Yeah?”
  “...Yeah.”
  “...Hey, Raph?” You said, leaning over the railing of the fire escape. “You’re mad at your brothers, I’m mad at your brother…you wanna come up here for a being-mad-at-your-brothers-popsicle? …I meant to share them with Leo, but…y’know.”
  Sugar and taking something that was supposed to be Leo’s? Fuck yeah, Raph was all for it.
  “...’Kay, gimme a sec’.” Raph smiled, climbing onto a dumpster to hop onto the fire escape.
***
  “And then- get this- he says he’ll  ‘make it up to me’ again!” You exclaimed, biting into your third popsicle.
  Raph gave an affronted ‘Ha!’ sound through his popsicle, which- judging by the amount of wrappers surrounding him- was his sixth one.
  “Right?! Like c’mon Nardo! Just say you don’t like me already!” You groaned.
  Raph snorted, taking his popsicle out of his mouth. “Yeah right , you’re all he ever talks about aside from Karai. …And Captain Ryan, come to think of it.” He said, pausing to consider it. 
  (Was Leo bisexual? …Did Leo even know what it meant to be bi? Was Raph’s brother gay for a fictional character? …He’d revisit the thought later.)
  You shrugged. “I’m his proverbial best friend aside from you guys. Of course he talks about me.”
  Raph shook his head, trying not to give away too much of his brother’s obvious crush on you. “Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night, princess.” Was what he finally settled on.
  You raised an eyebrow. “You mean…you think he… likes me?”
  Raph stuck his popsicle back into his mouth and shrugged unhelpfully.
  You faltered at his lack of response, and licked your own popsicle uncertainly.
  Raph sighed, leaning back onto your pillows. “Look, (Y/N). My brother is…difficult. More so to me than to you since I live with him, but still. I don’t know what he wants or why he does the things he does, but I do know that he’s a good guy, at his core. He’d never hurt you on purpose, he’s just…” 
  Raph tried to think of a polite way to say ‘a dumbass with a hero complex’.  
  “...Kind of a dumbass with a hero complex.” He finally said, a bit miffed at his failure to come up with a nicer description.
  You chuckled though, and Raph felt admittedly proud of the fact that he’d made you laugh- wait no, he was being serious, why was he proud? He didn’t care what you thought!
  “He is .” He insisted, but smiled despite himself. “So whatever the heck is going on with ‘Shredder: Hot teen girl edition’ is probably just…y’know. That. If it makes you feel any better, he probably doesn’t have the hots for her…especially now that she’s tried to kill us.”
  (If Raph were in the mood for introspection, he could have probably related to Leo after the incident with Slash. Something about how affection for someone didn’t just vanish because of how horrible that person was, but it definitely lessened or something... But Raph didn’t like introspection, so he didn’t.)
  Then a thought occurred to him, and he sat up and stared at you. “(Y/N), do you have the hots for Leo?!”
  You blushed, and stubbornly stared at the quilt of your bed. “...Maybe. Maybe I do, Raph. He’s my best friend, why do you sound so surprised?”
  Raph shook his head, a throb of irritation running through him for some reason. “I dunno, maybe because you’re a nice-looking human while we’re…you know, mutant turtles who scare people even when we’re saving them? Like, no offense, but what about that is attractive to you?”
  You somehow blushed harder. “Gee I don’t know Raphael, do you really want me to tell you about what I find attractive in your brother?” 
  He wrinkled his snout and chewed on his popsicle stick. “...Well when you put it that way, hell no.”
  “ Thank you.” You said with a smile of …relief and a hint of smugness. 
  “...So what’re you gonna do?” Asked Raph, begrudgingly curious.
  You shrugged dejectedly. “I don’t know. This is hard, man. I…I like Leo a lot, but maybe I’m sick of being second best to his hero-pet-project. …Does that make me a bad person?”
  “No,” Raph scoffed. If that made you a bad person, then he was a worse person- He was sick of their team coming second to Leo’s dumb forced redeeming of Princess Foot Clan, and it had taken far less than three weeks for him to snap.
  Besides, you were way too cool to be a bad person. You’d given him popsicles and let him rant.
  “I hope it doesn’t. I…I really don’t know what I’m gonna do, I was a total bitch to Leo though still, regardless of how much I deserved to be…” You sighed.
  “Well…you have fun with that.” Raph grinned, patting you on the head patronizingly.
  “Jerk.” You grinned back. 
  “Anyways- I’m gettin’ sick of this mushy stuff.” Raph said, straightening. “Do you have any VHS tapes to watch or somethin’?” 
  “Gettin’ comfortable, huh?” You challenged.
  “No…! Shut up!” He squeaked. You didn’t have anything to do tonight, and Raph didn’t wanna go back to the lair! It made sense!
  Now it was your turn to do the condescending head pat. “There there Raphie, I’m enjoying your company too.”
  “I don’t enjoy your company that much, you’re just supplying me with- with popsicles! Do ya now how hard it is to steal frozen food? Fucking hard!” He snapped, tearing open another popsicle.
  You smiled good-naturedly and pulled up your laptop.
  “Alright Raphie, alright. I see where we stand now, I’m just a popsicle dealer to you.” You sighed dramatically as you popped a Mulan DVD into the media player.
  He rolled his eyes but peered over your shoulder at the screen. “A princess movie? What are ya, nine?”
  “Shhh. You’ll love it.” You said, patting his shell. “It’s about a girl who fights people.”
  He sighed. “Fine. If it’s a musical though-”
  “Leo’s reported you singing the Hamilton soundtrack in the lair, so you can’t even talk.” You grinned.
  “Leo !” He hissed, clenching his fist.
***
  Raph opened his eyes to a black laptop screen…right, he’d gotten tired while watching that Mulan movie with you. 
  His Tphone was blowing up with notifications from his brothers, which he ignored in favor of checking the time…2 AM. Fantastic.
  He sat up from where he sat buried in your pillows and stuffed animals, and awkwardly tried to open the window without waking you up. You were seated with your back against the wall, slumped against the curtain, which made things a bit trickier, but Raph was literally a ninja, and he managed to get it open enough to slip out through.
  He glanced around your room one final time, trying not to feel like he wasn’t supposed to be there. It was an eerie feeling, being there without you conscious. Like some secret he wasn’t supposed to see.
  But he also felt guilty just leaving like that, without saying bye or anything…Leo would call that bad manners. And Raph didn’t usually care about manners, but…you’d given him popsicles. And let him vent about his brothers. And you’d even shown him an admittedly fantastic movie…
  He sighed and climbed back off the bed and onto the floor, grabbing a pen from your desk.
  ‘Thanks’ he wrote on a piece of crumpled notebook paper, and set it on your desk. After a moment of hesitation, he also closed your laptop and set it on the bedside table. 
  “Okay. That’s enough of bein’ a good person for me today.” He mumbled, and finally climbed out the window onto the fire escape.
  He thought about what you’d said about Leo as he slid down the ladder into the alleyway. 
  Raph really didn’t think Leo liked Karai, especially considering how often he’d talked about you since…day one, pretty much. It’d be as annoying as Donnie’s thing for April if it weren’t for the fact that you and Leo actually did things together- Raph had honestly been a little jealous. Not of Leo or anything like that, but of the fact that Leo and you just seemed to… get each other in a way that Raph had only dreamed of. You just… understood each other. Did Leo even know how lucky he was to have that sort of connection?!
  … But then again, apparently that sentiment wasn’t as true as Raph had assumed, considering…well, everything you’d told him.
  He shook his head and climbed down the sewer ladder, hopping over the turnstiles as he reached the lair.
  Leo was in the living room glaring towards him, as he always was when Raph was out late. Leo liked to guilt trip him about how he’d been ‘forced to stay up and keep watch for you’ as if Raph didn’t know Leo had insomnia and would be awake at 2am regardless, and Raph liked to storm around and kick things as if Leo didn’t know Raph felt guilty. It was a fun game they played.
  “Where the heck were you?” Leo said, without the usual irritation in his voice.
  …Actually, upon further inspection…without the usual anything, really. Instead of a dramatic Captain Ryan-esque heroic pose, Leo sat slumped against the couch. He wasn’t even on the couch, he was just leaning on it, which looked incredibly uncomfortable considering how cold the floor was. 
  Not only that, but there were unfamiliar stains on his mask and arm wrappings….uh, wet marks? Tear trails, Raph realized with a pang, stepping closer.
  “...You okay, brother?” He found himself asking. He wasn’t fully done being mad at Leo yet, but honestly, Raph didn’t think he could be mad at Leo right now…the guy looked so…so sad. It was kinda freaking him out.
  Leo shifted, hugging a couch pillow to his plastron.
  “I’m fine Raph.”
  Raph frowned. “No, you’re clearly not. Ya look like someone told you that Space Heroes got cancelled.”
  “It’s been completed since 1974, they can’t cancel it.” Leo said with a half smile, clearly proud of his somewhat-weak comeback.
  Raph rolled his eyes and sat on the floor across from Leo, grabbing the pillow out of his hands so Leo was forced to look up. “Look I’m not good at this whole ‘reading other people’s emotions’ shit, but I know you well enough to know that if you were fine you wouldn’t be here with this…wet pillow…ew, is that snot?” He said, wrinkling his snout in disgust.
  Leo snorted. “Gimme back my pillow, Raphael. That’s an order.”
  “Yeah no shit! I don’t want your snotty pillow, Fearless!” Raph gagged, tossing the pillow at Leo’s face.
  Leo smirked and held it to his chest again.
  “Ugh…you’re proud of that, aren’t you?!” Raph said, furiously wiping his hands on the floor.
  “To be fair, it was rather funny.” Leo pointed out.
  “I hate you.” Raph grunted, crossing his arms. “But you’re distracting me: Are ya really this hung up over the (Y/N) thing? Like… crying hung up?”
  Leo’s smile faded, and he looked away. “No…yes… Yeah.”
  He sighed, hugging the pillow tighter. “Raph… Am I a bad friend?”
  “Well, you screwed up, brother. But- and if you tell anyone that I told you this I’m pounding your skull in- But (Y/N) obviously likes you…a lot . So you’re doing something right, right?” Raph said with a shrug. 
  Leo moaned, shoving his face into the snotty pillow. “Did you talk to (Y/N) or something?!”
  “...I am far too tired to decide whether or not that’s a trick question, so I’mma just say yes now. Yes, I was with (Y/N), and yes we ate popsicles and said the word ‘fuck’ multiple times.” Raph said bluntly.
  Leo glanced up from the pillow. “Is (Y/N) okay?” He asked instantly. “I was such a…such a moron- Hey wait you ate my popsicles? -uh- Nope, not getting sidetracked, we’ll unpack that later- how is (Y/N) doing Raph?!”
  “Fearless, if you get one single inch closer to my face, I’m burning your room down.” Raph grunted, shoving his brother back a few inches before answering. “(Y/N) is mad at you. And sad. I don’t know, it’s none of my business. You should probably talk it out or something that couples- uh I mean ‘best friends’- do. I don’t know, I’m aromantic.”
  “I’m not dating (Y/N).” Leo said, rolling his eyes.
  “Oh right, you just talk about how ‘awesome it is to have someone like that’ and how much you want to ‘stare into those (E/C) orbs and get lost in them’ or ‘get in a romantic fistfight’ platonically.” Raph smirked. 
  “I do not say that. But that's irrelevant-”
  “Yeah, you do, actually.” Said a third voice. Raph looked up to see Donnie draped over the previously-empty-couch dramatically and did a double take.
  “Fucking- Jeez! Breathe louder or something Don!” He sputtered.
  “How long have you been there?!” Leo said, wearing a matching look of shock.
  “Since Raph came out as aromantic. Congrats on that, by the way! You hear that Leo? Now the aspec-siblings are half of the team. Now we’ve just gotta bribe Mikey into joining our side and we’ll outnumber you three to one!” Donnie said with a gap-toothed grin, shooting him a thumbs up.
  Raph nodded, still reeling. “God, Dee…”
  “I have always thought I deserve godhood, yes.” Donnie nodded, clearly sleep deprived. “But then again, I’d miss you guys. Maybe. Maybe just on Tuesdays! Ha! Ha….ha… Good god, I need sleep, don’t I?” They laughed hysterically. 
  Leo narrowed his eyes. “Donnie…how many coffees did you have?”
  “Hahaha…six. …Gasp , maybe I already am God!” 
  Raph rolled his eyes. “Yeah okay I’m gonna ignore them. Back to (Y/N). You’ve gotta apologize.”
  Leo seemed to shrink further into himself as he pressed his shell to the couch again.
  “Well…what if I’m too late? What if I’ve screwed up so much that (Y/N) won’t even want to be acquainted with me? What if…”
  “You’re gonna kill yourself with ‘dem ‘what if’s, Leo.” Donnie said, leaning over the couch arm to stare directly into Leo’s eyes. (Which looked hilarious, and Raph wished he had a camera)
  “Yeah, great advice from the guy who made a literal flow chart about his crush, Donatello. ” Leo sassed.
  “Yeah! I became master of the ‘what if’s! (Ooh… God of the ‘what if’s.)" He coughed. "Anyways: As God, that method works great for me. But you’re what Mikey would call… squishy, Leonardo! Those what ifs will simply tear your mortal soul apart!” Donnie said, miming an explosion in Leo’s face.
  Leo blinked at them, unimpressed. “Mikey coined the term ‘squishy’ to describe you. ”
  “Ooh, I’m a god of Squishy too?!” Donnie gasped. Raph shoved them off the couch.
  Donnie proceeded to simply lay on the floor, and after a few seconds it became apparent that he’d fallen asleep.
  “...I need to get rid of our coffee supply, huh?” Leo said, sighing.
  “I’m pretty sure he actually orders it from online Starbucks, so no dice.” Raph grunted, conveniently not mentioning that Donnie also let Raph order frappuccinos during those Starbucks-runs.
  “Well, nix on that idea.” 
  “I’m gonna make you apologize to (Y/N) tomorrow, you know.” Raph said, looking up.
  Leo nodded, squeezing his pillow one more time. “Okay.”
  “...D’ya think we should just leave them on the floor?” Raph prodded Donnie’s limp body.
  “Well, he’ll probably get back pain…eh, yeah, let’s leave him here.” Leo said with a shrug. 
  “He’s gonna hate themself tomorrow.” Raph smirked, already looking forward to it.
    ***
  Raph was gone in the morning when you woke up, and your laptop had been closed and set on the side table. You were on top of your blankets and leaning against the wall, as you had been while watching the movie…you must’ve fallen asleep.
  There was a crumpled paper on your laptop with a messy ‘Thanks’ scrawled onto it, and you smiled lightly.
  You’d never really spent much time with Raph compared to his brothers, but you were pleasantly surprised by how nice it had been to hang out with him. 
  And- oh yeah. Leo. 
  Your smile faded as you remembered the problem with Leo.
  What were you gonna do? …Apologize? No, you shouldn’t have to apologize, you hadn’t done anything wrong, really…
  You could go talk to him, maybe. 
  What did you even want from Leo, anyways? Sure you liked him, but your feelings were hurt. Did you even want to hang out with him right now?
  Maybe you needed a break. April had taken a break, so what was stopping you?
   Guilt, maybe… You mused as you plugged your laptop in and scrolled through your notifications mindlessly.
  And you didn’t want to take a break from Mikey, Donnie, and Raph. Sure Leo was your self appointed best friend, but the others were great too. And you’d finally hung out with Raph, and you didn’t want to throw all that progress down the drain…
  Was it petty though for you to want to not hang out with Leo? 
  He clearly didn’t want to hang out with you- no, but Raph said that Leo did want to hang out with you.
  Raph had also said something about how he and his brothers ‘weren’t exactly attractive by human standards’…was Leo insecure or something? Why would he be insecure? He was a badass ninja who saved people, he had like, nothing to be insecure about.
  You exhaled in frustration, wishing someone would just- make the decision for you-
  There was a thud, and you jumped and stared out the window.
  A rock.
  You sighed and shoved the window open to see which turtle it was, hoping for Leo but also dreading Leo-
  “Sup (Y/N).” Said Raph, waving up from the alley below..
  “Hey Raph!” You said, feeling both relieved and disappointed. Until you noticed the figure behind him in the shadows. Leo.
Nice.
  “Um…hi?” Said Leo weakly, and he gave a small wave.
  Raph shoved him forwards, glaring up at you in a way that would have read as hostile if it weren’t for the glint of amusement in his eyes.
  “Go get ‘em, Fearless.” He grinned.
  Leo shot Raph a glare, but looked back at you.
  “Hey (Y/N)...can we talk?” He said slowly.
  You sighed, and climbed out the window and onto the fire escape.
  “Yeah, I guess so.”
  “Cool cool.” He said, staring at his hands.
  Raph gave you a thumbs up before vanishing into the shadows, and then you and Leo were alone.
  “So. Rocks at my window? You know that’s what texting is for, right?” You said with a light smile you didn’t fully mean.
  Leo blushed. “Sorry. That was Raph. I think he just wanted to throw rocks, but I told him it was a bad idea-”
  “It’s okay.” You said, a bit awkwardly.
  “Oh. Well, sorry, still.” He said, rubbing the back of his neck.
  “So what did you want to talk about, Nardo?” You said, cutting to the chase.
  Leo swallowed. “Uhm…talking, right. I just…You’re right. I’m a terrible friend. I was avoiding you…And it’s not because I don’t like you, it’s just because…well, I don’t know. Because…”
  “You’re a ‘dumbass with a hero complex’?” You offered, quoting Raph.
  Leo narrowed his eyes. “What? No, I’m- Maybe? …Yes.” He finally said with a sigh.
  “So…yeah, what’s your point then?” You said.
  “My point is…I’m gonna try to do better. Be a better friend, if you’ll have me. And if not…I get it. I’ll be like, totally crushed, don’t get me wrong, but it makes sense.” He said, bowing his head. “But um…either way, I just want you to know that I…I like you a lot, (Y/N), and I should have done a better job of showing it.”
  You swallowed, trying not to look into his blue eyes.
  Well…time to make a choice.
No/Yes
***
Author's note: So this baby is a multiple-parter now. There's gonna be two separate endings, one that'll be angsty and one that'll be happy depending on your choice.
Side note, sorry about the excess of Raph in this chapter. I promise next chapter is very Leo-centric, but I guess...well, Raph is my favorite, apparently.

Hi I like your work and I was wondering if you could write rise Raph x reader, like the reader is really sweet and loving but the minute someone is being rude to Raph, the reader is all sassy and insulting that person until they apologize to Raph.
Stay safe and stay hydrated
warning: swearing
notes: ong my insults are very weird. not sure how i feel about this
When you guys started dating he was so shy? 
I guess? idk what's the word
You can literally smell his worry stink from a mile
Does he have a flustered stink?
You try to find out
He does
Y'all are literally sweeter than sugar
Donnies gagging in the background
Always giving gifts to him
Mostly plushies
But like the small cubby ones
No rabbits
He’s made that clear
He’s protected you from danger so many times
In dept honestly
Seeing him in action makes you feel interesting
“Are you ok!?”
“I don't think i’ve ever been more attracted to you”
“HUH?!”
So sweet
Always laying together in bed 
Loves playing with your hair
You don't let anyone say anything about him
“Why are you dating a turtle?”
“Why not?”
“Ew”
“At least he can get a partner AND treats them amazing”
Loves you
Loves going on walks with you in the yokai city
BUT there was this one time
“Excuse me can you not walk here you're scaring my kid”
“O-oh sorry!”
You give him a look
“Miss your kid is literally sleeping in your stroller”
“Well they’ll be frightened when they wake up!”
Your looking at this woman like what is she on?
“Not our problem”
“Excuse you!” she yells as she grabs Raphs arm as you try to walk off with Him and you turn around to face her. you looking furious
“Keep your crippled disgusting hands to yourself. Fucking Bitch.”
Raph literally has to drag you away from her 
“Maybe you could have said it nicer?”
“Maybe i could have *CENSORED* ”
“Umm lets not, please”
Never want to make u angry
Has seen your pissed off side and never wants to experience it
but still always loves you

hey!! if you’re taking requests, i’d like to request the rottmnt boys falling for a fem! reader who’s basically like your stereotypical raph. she loves fighting, loves working out, loud asf, short-tempered, blunt, sarcastic, cursed with resting bitch face, all that jazz. but, once you get to know her, she’s actually really funny and sweet. NEVER afraid to speak her mind, so she may come across as rude or sassy at times, but she never really means to be. DEFINITELY has mild adhd and is on the autism spectrum. 🫶
Hey! Thank you so much for the request!!
I was already working on the request you made before but this addition excited me a lot!!
For this reason, I hope I was able to at least comply with your request. I tried with all my might to best represent Raph's character but in some pieces I don't seem to have succeeded, I still hope you enjoy it, happy reading.

It was a quiet winter night in busy New York. Four mutant turtles sprinted through the darkness of the city looking for criminals to beat up and bring to justice. Difficult task for any normal person, but not for them who was their reason for living, to protect New York and their inhabitants from any bad guy who wants to destroy it or who wants to harm those who live there.
The evening continued for a while in total tranquility until suddenly an enormous noise shattered that beloved quiet that until recently had kept the four young people company.
The noise came from an alley not too far from the four and so it didn't take them long to arrive to see what was happening.
Initially everything seemed normal until the unconscious body of one of the Foot Clan members landed at their feet.
“To be able to throw a body like this, the person who did it must certainly be very big and strong” thought the four, unaware of what they would find themselves in front of.
Not having a good view from where they were at the time, they decided to approach out of curiosity and hid in the shadows to have a better view of the whole scene.
What they saw left them completely stunned and astonished.
A person of short stature was fighting against other members of the foot clan and managing to keep up with everyone. He almost seemed to be able to predict every little attack that came his way and intervene accordingly and between dodges and precise blows, one by one he defeated them all.
They still remained there trying to see the face of the person who had just finished fighting but they soon realized that his face was partially hidden by a black mask that left only his e/c eyes exposed. In addition to the eyes, some h/l h/c hair disheveled from the fight that had just ended were visible and some of this hair was stuck to the forehead due to the light layer of sweat that had formed.
-WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING LETTING THERE?! YOU NOW MADE ME LATE FOR TRAINING! GET UP, I WANT TO FINISH DESTROYING YOU!! - you shouted, moving one of the members of the foot clan lying on the ground with your foot.
-You act so boastful and then deep down you're a wimp...- you spat annoyed and then snorted.
Suddenly, to the surprise of all four of they, you took off your mask to take a breather and wiped away some of the sweat with the back of your hand before bending over to the backpack you had just reached and taking out a pack of damp handkerchiefs to clean your hands.
-How disgusting...- was the only thing you said as you continued to clean your hands with a disgusted face.
Just then Mikey accidentally poked the dustbin near his hideout catching your attention.
You immediately became defensive, staring into the darkness in their direction and the boys jumped at your sudden movements.
-who is there?!-
None of the four moved and so you immediately grabbed your phone to light up in their direction. Your eyes widened at the sight.
-What are you?- you asked, keeping the flashlight towards them to avoid missing any of their movements.
Leo stepped forward - well, doesn't it seem obvious? we're turtles - the young man teased you.
-Ah, thank you very much for the explanation, now everything seems normal to me and I will go home calmly as if I hadn't seen anything strange like four talking turtles with bands and weapons... yes, thank you very much-
-You see that we understand each other, huh?- Leo replied
-I was being ironic anyway- you snorted, thus triggering Donatello's curiosity, perceiving you to be partly similar to him.
-Can you tell me what you are and what you are doing here? I want to know if I have to kick your ass or I can go home... you know how it is, it's late to be around-
-My brother is right- said Raph, -we are mutant turtles...- he added, -ninjas and teenagers- concluded Mikey.
You stood there looking at them one by one without ever meeting their gazes - it would be hard to believe if you weren't in front of my eyes...-
-But you're still afraid of us, aren't you?- Leo asked
-Mh?-
-I say, it's true that you didn't have any particular reactions but you're avoiding our gaze as one would avoid a monster's gaze- Leo replied
-I can safely tell you that you are wrong Red-eared slider-
Leonardo stood there looking at you -so why are you avoiding our gaze?-
Donatello intervened -Asperger? True?-
You nodded causing confusion for the other three.
-What are you talking about Donnie?- Raph asked looking towards his brother.
-He just confirmed a doubt I had, he has Asperger's syndrome, a high-functioning autism spectrum- Viola clarified.
-Ah, well, then I'm sorry for accusing you... anyway, nice to meet you, I'm Leonardo- he held out his hand to you without however receiving a shake from you who remained there staring at his hand.
Leo seemed to get annoyed by this but you immediately explained - I don't feel comfortable having physical contact with someone I don't know unless it's for a fight, don't take it amiss Leonardo. Anyway, I'm Y/n, nice to meet you- you bowed slightly in greeting.
-No problem, anyway they are Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo- he introduced the brothers, pointing to them one by one.
-Anyway, you're fantastic at fighting!!- Mikey cheered, -where did you learn??- he asked.
-Let's say I was forced to do Kickboxing to let off steam and solve my anger problems but just today these failures blocked me and made me miss the lesson I had and so I thought it was appropriate to take lessons with them-
-Well, you're right to channel your anger and vent it in a sport like that, it's very useful- Raph complimented.
-Said then by a giant turtle with anger problems- Leo teased, triggering a blush from his older brother.
You laughed - but I can say that I'm happy to have missed the lesson, so I have the opportunity to get to know you - you smiled sincerely.
-Awww! You're so kind Y/n!! - Mikey approached to give you one of his mega hugs only to be blocked -n-not naw please- you smiled a little uncomfortably and then gently caressed the younger's shoulder -sorry! I did not think about it! but anyway I feel honored by this caress - he chuckles happily.
-Anyway, it's too late to go home alone, let us accompany you- the redhead proposed
-Do you have anything else to do? I don't want to disturb-
-No way!! We were on patrol anyway, and then we'd like to help a new friend, wouldn't we guys? - asked the blue one only to be followed by the three brothers who nodded to his question.
-Thanks guys, I really appreciate it- you smiled and then walked towards home chatting and joking with your new four friends.

omfg I'm a fool. I'm so sorry. I just realized that I never posted the original designs for my Kaiju TMNT AU on tumblr. oTL
I'm still debating if I wanna go more kaiju-looking on them like in my previous post, or if I should stick with these designs, tbh. I like them both? So maybe I'll figure something out.
In this version they are all so close in age that Splinter just treats them like quadruplets. There's not really an older/younger sibling dynamic. For the most part everyone is treated as equal.
Leo becomes the leader naturally because of his extroverted personality and strategic skills. He's outgoing and encouraging of his brothers, and doesn't like to be left by himself for too long. A little sassy at times, and definitely a prankster. I liked the easygoing nature of Rise's Leo, and wanted to mix it with Mutant Mayhem's. (Scorpion Mud Turtle)
Donnie is just a lovable dork. He likes to take things apart and put them back together again, and his big thing is studying coding. He's also the smallest and most agile of the group. I wanted to pull back from the "jack of all trades/techs" type of Donnie and give him a focus. Pulling personality traits more from Bayverse and the 2007 movie, honestly. (Wood Turtle)
For Raph I confess to just dumping my two favorites (2003 & Rise) in a blender, both visually obvious through the species & color scheme, AND the personality. Very protective of the others, but also teases/bullies them constantly. Very aware of his strength and temperament. Brooklyn accent 100%. (Alligator Snapping Turtle)
Mikey I wanted to make the biggest because I felt like the gentle giant vibes fit his personality. That laid back 'surfer dude' attitude mixes well with it. He was the unofficial leader for their childhood just because he was the biggest and it was easy for the others to follow/hide behind him. He did his best, but was glad that Leo stepped up. For him I looked to 2012 and 1987 Michaelangelo in terms of personality. (African Tortoise)

MM!TMNT with a Reader like Raph
Tumblr media
Leo: 
Oml when he meets you along with April, he’s both worried and excited
Floods of nervousness kept pricking at him as the boys questioned April, his eyes moving towards you. 
When you kept glancing towards him, his worries only increased.
Was he doing something wrong? Was he being too weird? 
Turns out, you were just curious as to why he was hiding behind everyone else. 
Initially, your loudness and bluntness surprised and scared the boys. What could they do? 
But Leo was drawn to you, no matter how loud you got. 
You and Raph quickly bonded over your shared love of working out and excessive violence.
Any mission was a mixture of yelling and confusion among the rest of the boys while you and Raph took care of business.
Leo’s crush on you, however? Massive.  
You thought the comments on his brief crush on April was excessive? They’ve reached a new threshold here.
Multiple comments of: “Leo’s got no rizz” and “Wanna try that again?” 
Before the ultimate battle with Superfly however, something quite interesting happened. You let out a different side. 
As you both travelled towards your probable imminent death, you nudged him. 
“Hey, Leo. Can I tell you something?
“What? Oh, yeah totally. What is it?” he said, surprised you weren’t boisterous for once. 
“I actually think Leon Ardo is a better name. Might take it someday.” 
Leo’s face looked confused, and also slightly flattered. His heart started to race, and his cheeks felt warm. 
“Oh! Uh, thanks. That means a lot.”
“Feelings mutual. You’re doing great.” 
After the battle with Superfly, it was certainly a shock. 
Debris scattered everywhere, people cheering and screaming, and blood. Everywhere. 
Thankfully, you had a great support system in the form of Splinter and your parents. Also screamo karaoke. 
At school, you both were constantly divided. The loudmouth, and the teacher’s pet. 
But that didn’t stop you. And it didn’t stop you from taking him to prom. 
Raph: 
Instant connection. Like immediately. 
Both of you supportively screaming and yelling while working out was a bonding activity for both of you. 
You got along with his brothers moderately well, more thankful that you could balance him out. 
Anytime you had goons for interrogation, it was instantaneous for you, information spilling out like water out of a jug. 
“What’s wrong with your face?” “It’s always like this.” 
As you got to know the boys, you slowly let loose. Your previous intimidating facade was quickly melted by your sweet compliments. 
Every plan that was made, your thoughts slipped between your lips without fail. They refer to it as “brutal criticism” 
Eventually, you and Raph grew extremely close
That’s when Raph realised he had a thing for you. 
Anytime he tried to draft up a confession, your resting face would discourage him 
He actually confessed on the battlefield, when he thought you died
Did it over your unconscious body and everything
Imagine his surprise when you opened your eyes, and when you confessed as well.
Donnie: 
You know his anime brain? He immediately compares you to those femme fatale characters. 
Daki, Revy, even Asuka. All of those characters he saw in you.
Your loudness and bluntness were viewed through a rose-tinted glass
Yet, he was petrified of you. 
Only at first though
Mostly because it looks like you could break him with just your knuckle
After, he slowly started warming up to you
He legitimately put you on a pedestal when he heard you mention Attack on Titan for the first time
Soulbonded after that.
He kept brainstorming workout plans for you
Most nights composed of you looking up anime character workout plans 
During the fights with Superfly and other mutants, you kept decimating through enemies
Raph was secretly fanboying, while Donnie?
Oh boy, he was floored. 
After that mission, he kept analysing if you liked him back or not. 
This is how you noticed the way he acted around you. 
It shifted, changed. 
He seemed embarrassed whenever you watched him listen to K-POP
Or anime, even though it was a shared interest between the two of you. 
Before the fight with Superfly, you lightly confronted him
Which, of course, led to him rambling-confessing to you. 
You swore that you felt the same, but to make it semi-official after the fight.
Now, the two of you are known as the brute hackers, the culprits of who exactly is hacking the school’s gradebook and editing grades. 
Mikey:
Oooh. If I could describe your relationship in its early stages 
Very much golden retriever and guard dog energy
Even though you kept responding with snarky comments, you’d always indulge in his questions about the human world
Anytime you had your resting face on, he’d try to cheer you up
Even if you were just staring at a wall
If we’re including loudness, you two were virtually the same
Mikey only being slightly quieter than you
He always runs jokes by you before telling them
Loves your jokes and your vibes to the ten fold
The rest of the brothers were petrified of you at first, but not Mikey
Kept sticking to you like a magnet 
During the Superfly battle, he kept worrying over you
Like never before
When they’re all captured, you fought alongside Splinter as best as you could 
But because your experience with martial arts isn’t the same as a martial arts master, you got kidnapped as well. 
You wish you could’ve erased the defeated look on his face on you
After the fight, you felt a breath of fresh air flood you as you embraced everybody 
It was hard adjusting to school life, but you had Mikey by your side
Constantly joking and supporting you
And you did the same, especially at his first day at Improv Club
You’d built him a support sign and everything.

LEO
Leo gave his room to you for a couple of hours, he knew you liked to paint in silence
And he knew you were drawing pictures so you needed to focus
But it's okay if he stays quiet, right?
He tries to open the door silently, but the hinges make a noise that fills the entire room
And this happened 10 times already
You gave an "Again?" look to him
"Ahah, well now I think you should rest now- What about eating some ice cream, I know a good place. But you know what before we go, I think I can take a look."
If you try to cover your painting he will get more curious and will do everything to see it
"Geez Y/N, don't be shy, I know you are talen-"
Oh
In the drawing you guys are holding hands and it kind of looks like... A date?
if you think he will be sassy about it no. He will start to stutter and gonna try to tug at the neck of his missing sweater while laughing in pain
You guys didn't open feelings to each other yet but it shows he will gonna win your heart
He plays saxophone inside
"You know what, I get it you're being busy with drawing. So I respect your time aaaand this is the place where Leo leaves-"
After two minutes he comes back and whispers "And when you finish it, uhhhhh... please show me."
When you finished your painting and go out for eating ice cream, he will take this as a date
Tumblr media Tumblr media
DONNIE
You two were sitting in his labs, he was trying to understand what he did wrong about flight teams at car and you were painting picture humming a song
He finally understand what he did wrong, paired the wrong cables and... Done!
He picked up Raph's broken phone while waiting for you to finish
He finished literally every work but you were still sitting
He slowly approached you and looked over your shoulder
"What."
His brain tries to process, give him one minute
He will deny painting first, maybe this time you draw for fun?
But you swing your head in other directions
Ok, this is impossible for science, even he knows everything you draw had happened
He will turn his back and cover his face, eyebrows are frowning, sweat runs from his neck to his shell
HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, NOTHING GOES ACCORDING TO HIS PLAN
He will take a deep breath and turn to you again
And ask for a date.
Yes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
RAPH
"Good work team, now hero pose!"
The boys came from the mission while you waiting, the minutes passed like hours so you started painting
Raph threw himself on the couch you were sitting on
"Oh, hey Y/N! What are you doin'?"
Leaning back, he watched your back and involuntarily sighed
Your drawing was important for these boys, they can predict future disasters and that was incredible
But for now, he didn't wanna think about the future just hug you
"I was drawing, the painting is almost done. How was your day?"
When you turned him, he saw the canvas
"Raph... Raph?"
"Is that really... Future?"
"Oh yes."
You two sitting at the corner of the building, the place is lit by candles and your shoulder is on his arm
An awkward silence comes between you, he is just looking other direction
You can hear he is having a meeting with Mind Raph
After deciding what to do he turns to you
"Hey Y/N" He scratched his neck with a shy expression on his face
He will open his feeling to you and will wait for your reply without taking a breath
If you accept his feeling his nervous expression slowly goes big smile
He will hug you for couple hours
Maybe your painting can wait
Tumblr media Tumblr media
MIKEY
Mikey was always a sharer so he was happy about sharing his paints with you
I mean, it was a nice way to spend time with his crush
While talking with you, you two can paint. The mix of two perfect activities turned out to be something divine!
He would watch you silently behind you as you drawing the future, sometimes you forgot he was even there
He knows you need to focus
He always wanted and kept his drawings of him and his family from you
But today he was preparing his sprays
After finishing the finishing touches on your painting, you were going to go graffiti
He was so busy preparing everything, so he couldn't look at your canvas, normally you would sit side by side and doodle something
He comes to you crawling from his seat
"Do you need help?"
He looked at your picture as he rested his head on your shoulder
"OMİGOSH! IS THAT FUTURE???"
He will be the only turtle who will ask you out without fear
He is sure you love him too
You take a breaktime to spend time with the orange turtle

How they showed themselve Bayverse TMNT
Tumblr media
A/N: I actually planned this chapter as a continuation of the first part, as it was very well received. (Artist from this pic: ciricearts!!!)
First Part here!
Warnings: A little angst, Mention of weapons and violence
______________________________________
Leonardo (Strangers to Lovers):
Ever since the day Leo had discovered you, he had watched you sometimes
He knew where you lived and even found out where you liked to be (when not home)
One evening Leo had decided to guard you again (Yes, he calls it guarding, others call it stalking)
You were normally watching TV when suddenly someone knocked on your door and you looked worried
Leo watched interestingly as you slowly walked to the door and opened the door
However, he jumped in shock as you were suddenly pushed away and yelled at by another person. You were scared and Leo had to restrain himself from intervening
But when the stranger suddenly raised his hand, his alarm immediately sounded and he threw open the window to help you
He scared the stranger away with his katana and slammed the door, you stood in the corner and just stared at him in fear
For a while you just looked at each other in silence, your body relaxing a bit
"I-i´m sorry-!" "Thank you so much!"
It shocked Leo that you weren't afraid of him and thanked him
Even though the shock was still huge, Leo had to go again
You asked him if he would come back and he said he would think about it. But it was clear to him that he would like to see you again
Raphael (Cinnamon roll and Guard dog):
Raph came to the meeting place where he saved you every night
Even though it was secret and he risked a lot, he came there again with the surprise that you were there too
You had two soda cans in your hand and a pizza, the smell immediately hit his nose
You just heard him hit the ground loudly, but again in the shadows so you couldn't see him
You sat down on the floor and offered him the food, which he accepted. He kept pulling out a slice of pizza with his sai
However, while you were talking, your soda can almost fell over, but Raph grabbed it so it wouldn't fall over
You could see his huge hand, his three fingers and his green skin. It shocked you a little, but didn't scare you away
Raph hesitated for a while before he sat forward so you could see him
He looked down in shame while you just smiled softly at him. Even if he was ashamed of what he was and what he looked like, you thought he was perfect
So you giggled softly before continuing to eat and drink
It shocked Raph at first and he immediately asked you if you weren't afraid of him
You laughed softly again before shaking your head and reassuring him that you weren't afraid of him
"You are still my hero."
Donatello (Sexy sassy and timid nerd):
Donnie and you had spoken on the phone every night and every day, even secretly, while you were in university
You always enjoyed these phone calls, but one thing always bothered you. You had always shown yourself (voluntarily), but Donnie never wanted to show himself
So one day you asked him why he wouldn't show himself and he joked around a bit
"A beautiful person like you would never want to see an ugly nerd like me." "Fuck off, Donnie! You´re great just the way you are!"
It had taken a long time, but you were able to convince him to show himself. Not over a phone call though, he wanted to show himself to you in person
So he asked you to come to your roof and wait for him there. It confused you a bit since it was at night, but you did it
Donnie hesitantly climbed up onto the roof and he cleared his throat. He stood a few meters behind you
When you turned around, your eyes went wide and you opened your mouth, but closed it again
Since you didn't say anything and didn't give any reassuring or happy reaction, Donnie feared the worst and wanted to leave
But you were still able to stop him by walking towards him and carefully reaching for the fabric of his mask
You smiled softly at him and tilted your head slightly. It amused you that Donnie let out a sigh of relief
You had been talking for several hours before your alarm went off. It was a sign that you should get back to your apartment and get ready for university
So you said goodbye to Donnie and went back to your apartment
Michelangelo (Aggressive chihuahua and calm giant):
Mikey wasn't allowed to meet you since Halloween night, but you always came back to the place where you met
Once Mikey noticed it, he used to climb up to that sewer passage to watch you standing there waiting for him for a whole hour
One day you got angry and you pulled at your clothes in frustration
Mikey was afraid you had given up, so he quickly ripped off some orange fabric and threw it out
Luckily you had seen the material and picked it up immediately
Actually, this piece of fabric motivated you to keep going to this place, but you didn't come for the next few days and Mikey was worried
Mikey was afraid that you had given up after all
So he begged Donnie to find your address and give it to him. After a lot of begging, it worked and he got the address (Donnie, of course, kept everything to himself)
Mikey made his way to your home that same night and he found you in your room
"Heyyy, cutie pie!"
When you looked out the window, your face immediately lit up and you opened it
Then when you asked him why he was wearing his costume, he then confessed to you that his appearance wasn't a costume
You were completely shaken up, but in a good way and you had exchanged numbers

What’s your favorite Donnie/ Raph dynamic out of all the iterations? Sorry if this question doesn’t make any sense lol
Makes perfect sense, and it has a very easy answer for me:
TMNT 1987 has my fave Donnie-Raph dynamic!
One might think it'd be Rise of the TMNT, but while I do enjoy Raph and Donnie's dynamic in that, and I did create a whole comic with the two of them, it's more of a love of what could be more than what we actually see in the show, because there are very few scenes and episodes in that series where the two of them team up.
In fact, there are very few interactions, scenes, or episodes with the two in most iterations, unfortunately. Despite that, the two remain my favorite duo in TMNT (more on why that is over here). But out of all the iterations, it is in 1987 that we get perhaps the most interactions and team ups between the two of them. And it's not just the amount of time we get to spend with the two of them together, it's also the quality of the interactions, too.
Throughout the series the two are often shown hanging out, tag-teaming in fights and sparring matches, and even teaming up to play pranks on Leonardo and Michelangelo.
There's many moments where they agree with each other or side with each other if there's a disagreement in the group. For instance in "Splinter Vanishes” the team is forced to go their separate ways. Raphael and Donatello disagree with splitting up and want to stick together, even though the others (and Splinter) insist that they do. Then you have Season 8′s “ H.A.V.O.C.” arc, where there's a team of other mutants that seem like allies, and the two of them want to side with the new mutants while Leonardo and Michelangelo are suspicious of them (the mutants end up being antagonists, but this is just another instance where the two have similar opinions and stick together).
They’re just portrayed as being a good team who work well together, despite having rather different personalities.
And that’s another thing that I find interesting about them in this version - how their personalities differ somewhat from other versions and how those personalities bounce off each other in this iteration. I've talked a bit about this, and what I like in regards to how their dynamic is portrayed in another post. But specifically what I find interesting is that in this version, Raphael is actually a lot more cautious and self-preserving, while Donatello is the one who is rash and runs into trouble.
Raphael's personality in the 1987 version is very much a sassy, wise-cracking jokester. He'll definitely egg on a fight that he's confident about and taunt the enemy a lot, but he knows when to back out of a tough situation. Meanwhile, Donatello is very smart and level-headed, but very prideful, and it's that pride that gets him to bite off more than he can chew. In numerous instances he's gotten himself and the others in trouble because he's so sure of his abilities that he doesn't see when things start to go wrong because "he can handle it".
What's cool about these seemingly clashing personalities, is that the two end up grounding each other. Raphael will be the one to point out when Donatello's schemes or inventions may have some downsides. Granted, he does so via sarcastic jabs at Donatello's expense, but nonetheless, he's also there to help out when things inevitably go wrong. And despite his reservations about Donatello's plans, he very often turns to him when things go south. He's very sure of his brother's ability to out-think a situation.
Tumblr media
On the flip side, Donatello will often look to Raphael for comfort or assurance when he is worried or scared. There are lots of instances of him clinging to or hugging Raphael when he's nervous, and it's very sweet (more screenshots over here).
Tumblr media
Overall, I wish there was as much focus on this duo in other iterations, and it's because there's so much content with them in '87 that it makes it one of my faves.
I’ll close out this ramble with a list of a few of my fave Don-Raph episodes from the 1987 series:
Back to the Egg - Michelangelo and Leonardo get shrunk to toddler age, and Donatello and Raphael have to be older brothers to the two younger ones. This is my favorite episode of the whole ‘87 series!
Raphael vs the Volcano - an invention by Donatello makes Raphael think he's dying, so he throws caution to the wind and goes on various heroic escapades. Donatello has to fix his mistake and save Raphael from his own brash actions.
Combat Land - The turtles are invited to test out a new battle-themed amusement park and to fight its robot creations. However, it might just be a scheme to destroy them.
Dirk Savage: Mutant Hunter - Leonardo and Michelangelo get kidnapped by a villain who is trying to control mutants, and Raphael and Donatello have to work together to save them.
Thank you so much for giving me an excuse reason to talk about my favorite duo :3
