I love Raph and haven’t said that enough so to be more specific I love that Raph is a soft boy who loves bear plushies, a gross boy who eats an assortment of things that are definitely better left alone, a smart boy who is more than capable of taking down villains through planning and fortitude alike, a strong boy who is dedicated to training his muscles and fighting prowess, a teenage boy who loves his brothers but is more than happy to tease and roughhouse with them, an angry boy who sometimes lets his anger take a hold of him to cover the fear, a gentle boy who is generous with hugs and affirmations to those he loves, a capable boy who takes on more than should ever be expected of a teenager, a good boy who just wants to be a hero and slowly comes to realize the cost of that duty, a good boy who has no reservations about putting himself in the way of harm coming to his family, a good boy who’s a great brother and son and person and deserves only the best the world has to offer.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt raph#rise raph#he’s so wonderful frfr#my poor boy is traumatized but still so proud of what they accomplished because they’re HEROES#what started as something fun - Saturday morning cartoon-like heroes vs villains esque - soon becomes his calling#and he loses himself a little along the way#because the world is TERRIFYING now#if they don’t do something about the bad things in the world then worse things will come#and Raph CARES too much to let it happen#even at the expense of his own happiness and youth#and he luckily reigns back that fear - knowing his family is there to keep an eye out with him#and he finally lets himself be a kid again#he’s very well rounded and his flaws are so good because (like the others) they are ALSO his strengths#I like how it’s softly implied that bears are his fav animal too bc that’s cute af#headcanon that he likes them so much because a stuffed bear was the first toy splinter managed to get Raph#but yeah one of my favorite things about tmnt is that the characters are well rounded and rottmnt exemplifies that immensely#with raph being no exception!!#amazing big brother and character#there’s a REASON in my tmnt main character tierlist he’s S tier!!!!#hot take but in terms of who should be leader I think it should be less who’s the better leader-#-and more who’s the better leader FOR THIS SPECIFIC MISSION#bc all four can be great leaders fight me on that#APRIL can as well 100%#doesn’t need a designated leader for them to succeed#they just need ~communication~#one of my favorite things tying Raph and Leo together is that they both *hide*#I’ve talked about Leo’s many masks a lot but Raph has one too#and it’s the mask of a hero - the mask of the protector

“Hey lil guy! Glad to see you’re up!”
The disconnect between them being in a lair, and having the new figure distinctly not match who they were used to being in such a setting caused April to question if someone was actually there when she thought she felt a presence behind them. And Donnie had been so focused on Raph that the form had been ignored. Everyone knew not to suddenly grab him when he was like this. Other than Lil Mikey, but he had special privileges. And Leon as well, to a point, in very specific circumstances.
But this loud, rough, obnoxious, horrible brute certainly did not have such privileges. Therefore the contact and noise earned a startled hiss that quickly turned furious as Donnie recoiled from the touch, shoving the arm off his shoulders as though it were poison and retaliating violently with his fist. The man’s apology was interrupted by Donnie’s knuckles colliding with his nose and mouth, effectively knocking him away as Donnie hunched protectively over April and ushered them a few steps in the opposite direction.
“Donnie!”
“Mya-AH!”
Raph’s voice was a painful stab to Donnie’s mind, but he accepted it since it was Raph. But Mikey’s startled yelp as he woke from the commotion was a stab to the mental barrier Donnie was scrambling to create, cracking the form before it could even begin to complete. With the obviously distressed noise from his little brother Raph had formed his ninpo avatar around himself to allow him to move on his own, scrambling up from the couch and practically falling over the top of Donnie and April as his arms and ninpo protectively enveloped them. With the physical barrier now guarding him, Donnie released April in favor of wrapping his arms around Raph’s forearm, feeling a minor sense of peace as Raph’s other hand smothered half of his back in comfort even as he sagged to his knees.
“Dang it Casey! What did I tell you about him? Do you want to lose a finger?!” Raphael’s voice joined the noise this time, drawn from his previous location from the uncommon sound of Donnie hissing, and the impact of flesh and fist.
“I was just being friendly,” Casey protested, voice muffled by his hand covering his bleeding nose.
“Yeah, well not everyone likes to be manhandle- SHELL!” Raphael’s response broke off with a startled half curse as a blue static of energy brought Leon into the commotion, a drawn sword for the long distance portal fading to flecks when he noticed there wasn’t an actual brawl. Yet.
“What did you do to him?!” Leon demanded after a short glance over to locate Donnie and make sure he didn’t have any additional injuries.
Where Mikey would normally feel comfortable interjecting to try and diffuse the situation, he hadn’t actually seen what happened and therefore remained where he was peeking over the back of the couch. Maybe Leon’s anger was justified? If it was, Mikey didn’t want to scold Leon for being protective of his brother. He seemed a little distressed along with the anger though, which was definitely concerning. Did he think they would actually intentionally hurt them?
“Relax, kid. It was just a-” Raphael started to consol, cutting off with a slight flinch back when Leon lashed out at him almost immediately.
“Don’t tell me to relax!” Leon snapped, rounding on Raphael even as April wiggled out from the barrier of Raph’s ninpo encased arms to stand between the two groups just in case. “I asked you not to bother him-”
This time Raphael’s eye twitched. “Hey, I heard nothing of the sort,” he snapped, shifting his weight towards Leon.
“He and the girl were already here when I got here,” Casey added in a half complained attempted rebuttal as Don and Mikey reached the group from the kitchen, as well as Leo from the meditation room.
“We didn’t get the chance to tell the others yet,” Don explained, currently the quietest voice of the group. A strange blessing considering everyone else was yelling.
Leon made a slight hiss of his own in response, but didn’t seem to have an immediate verbal response this time as he was forcing himself to pause to take a moment to question his previous reactions. It made sense, Don hadn’t even left the kitchen after Leon told him Donnie wanted to be left alone. The quieter tone was also nice, and didn’t grate on his nerves. And for half a heartbeat he wasn’t sure why he was so upset? Or if it was even his nerves that were getting scraped.
“...April, I think Leo’s-” Lil Mikey whisper, shuffling closer to April after rapidly analyzing the people in the area.
“Is everything- WhAT HAPPENED?!” Mom April was the newest addition to the commotion now, taking one look at Casey’s dripping nose and having her anxiety spike. The shrill outburst earned a distressed noise from Donnie as he clamped his hands over his ears, trying to keep ahold of Raph at the same time. Mom April didn’t notice though, reaching towards Casery to check how bad it was. “Why are you bleed-”
“Would you shut up?!” Leon abruptly snapped, a snarl pulling his lip up as he whirled on Mom April, her voice feeling like nails driven into his brain. His brain?
“HEY! Don’t yell at my wife!” Casey thundered in retaliation, shifting his broad form to get between Mom April and Leon.
“Casey, hold on,” Leo interrupted, rushing forward to place a hand on their old friend’s shoulder to push him back. Even considering the fight they’d got into before, Leon was strangely antagonistic now. Was this a flashback like Don had mentioned might happen? It was so different from before when Leon had been lashing out from fear. Now he just seemed angry and horribly disoriented, raising his hands to his own head as though he wasn’t sure it hurt or not.
“You shut the hell up too! You’re all so damn loud!” Leon snapped at Casey, relayed venom lacing his words as he returned Casey’s step, refusing to back down.
“ALL OF YOU SHUT IT!” April’s voice unexpectedly snapped through the group, causing various levels of startlement, especially when she almost stomped forward to slap both hands on Leon’s cheeks and yank his head to bring his gaze to her. Raphael’s retort caught in his mouth as it snapped closed, and both brows rose as he looked to April. And when Leon tried to protest April just shook his head slightly and squished her hands harder. “That includes you. You’re spiraling off Donnie,” she chided, lowering her voice for a moment before opting for complete silence and pressing her own mouth shut. While she took control of Leon, Lil Mikey was taking care of addressing the others, giving a slightly pained and pleading smile as he pressed his palms together in a silent request for them to listen to April’s demand.
The blunt revelation and command from April caused Leon to suck in a short hissed breath, effectively silenced and decidedly shifting his attention to her. Her bellow had hurt, but her comment afterwards made it painfully aware why. It wasn’t his pain. It was Donnie’s. He’d just been lashing out as a projection of Donnie’s responses combined with his own desire to help.
Pursing his lips together, Leon gave April a single nod to show he understood, drawing a shaky breath and raising his hands when she let him go. And then, to the elder inhabitants’ surprise, Leon started making deliberate motions in front of him. A quick point at Donnie, still smothered in Raph’s tense form. Upturned palms with fingers snapping to grip at the air. One hand raising almost like he was catching something next to his head. Then pointer fingers curled with the thumbs and second fingers spread as he dropped them slightly.
April’s expression became saturated with worry even as she pursed her own lips. After a moment of hesitation she raised two fingers and shifted her hand side to side twice.
At that point Don drew in a slow gasp of realization. “Wha-?” Raphael started to ask before Don clamped a hand over his brother’s mouth, holding a finger in front of his own lips. Gesturing at Raphael to hold on, Don took a moment to turn to Mom April and gesture for her to take Casey to the infirmary to address his bleeding nose. She didn’t seem happy, but considering Don looked like he knew what was going on she didn’t protest. After she ushered Casey away quietly, Don motioned for his brothers to come closer to him as he pulled out his phone and opened the notes app.
| It’s sign language. | Don typed where his brothers could see, even as Lil Mikey moved closer to Leon and April and was trying to make one handed signs back. | They all know sign language. |
His excitement was obvious to see, something between the two groups that was so drastically different. But Raphael didn’t find the merit in knowing that particular detail, giving Don a confused and blatantly questioning expression.
| Considering April told us to be quiet, noise must be a problem somehow. | Don typed back.
That was enough motivation for Leo to start working on fixing the problem rather than debating about it. Especially when he glanced at their guests again and noticed silent tears slipping from both Donnie’s and Leon’s eyes. Pulling his own phone out and typing in a note, Leo approached the group of three and held it out to them. | What’s wrong? How do we help? |
Leon ended up flinching back in confused surprise, but April’s expression brightened slightly while Lil Mikey looked ecstatic. When Leon started to repeat some of the motions he had done before, Lil Mikey being unable to explain, Leo shook his head and pushed the phone towards him.
Giving a slightly annoyed huff, Leon took the phone and rapidly typed out a response after rubbing the tears in one eye again.
| D is overwhelmed. He needs somewhere quiet, but there isn’t one. |
Watching carefully as Leon typed, Leo accepted the phone when Leon shoved it back and added his own response. | Anywhere quiet? |
That earned a confused look from the three, but after a moment Leon gave a hesitant nod. The ideal situation would be somewhere that was familiar. But that wasn’t going to happen, so the basic requirement was just to have somewhere with as little sound as possible.
It was enough for Leo to work with, and he started to head towards Raph and Donnie. His course was halted though when Leon immediately latched onto his wrist, grip almost strangling the limb. But Leo just turned back to meet his gaze, raising his other hand to rest softly on Leon’s grip and giving him a reassuring smile. He remembered what it had been like when everything was just too much. Every comment his family made only made him angry despite how much they wanted to help. How even the drop of water in a leaky faucet would grate on his nerves. How his siblings whispering made him want to lash out at them. After a stretch of time just watching Leon’s expression shift subtly, Leo silently mouthed ‘Trust me?’ to him.
And after a few flexes in Leon’s grip strength he eventually, almost reluctantly let Leo go.
The action earned a thankful smile from Leo, and he gave Leon a soft nod before turning back to his original task. It seemed he’d have to gain the trust of more than one brother though, for when he knelt down in front of Raph he could hear a soft growl of wary warning from the huge form. It admittedly sent a slight chill down Leo’s back, but he knew Raph was just being protective. And so Leo was careful to raise his hands in an inoffensive motion as he sat on his feet, remaining still until the rumbles from Raph stopped. Then he carefully tapped on his phone before showing it to Raph. | I just want to see if he wants to go to the meditation room. It’s sound proofed. |
The message caused Raph to blink in mild surprise, but Leo could see his form significantly relax. His hand moving away from Donnie slightly while Leo set his phone down was enough to prompt Donnie to open his eyes to check the surroundings for what was changing. And when he saw Leo so close he also let out a quiet hiss of warning.
Leo almost chuckled at the reaction, for it had lost so much of the venom Donnie had had before. It felt more like a sleep irritable kid weakly shoving away the hand trying to wake them up. Something about missing his battle shell and wearing such large glasses made him less intimidating in appearance. But Leo wasn’t sure if even the soft noise of a chuckle would bother him, so just gave a small smile as he raised a finger in front of it. No need to be loud. He understood the need for quiet now. And he held his other hand out in offer for Donnie to take, nodding his head in the direction of their meditation room when Donnie squinted at him suspiciously.
Neither of them moved for long enough for Lil Mikey to start shifting in anxiousness, raising a foot to rub against the back of his leg and glancing at Leon. Who then in turn gave Lil Mikey a slight glare before averting his gaze completely and folding his arms with a slight huff. Donnie’s gaze flicked to Leon for a moment, then slid back to Leo’s offered hand as he frowned slightly. Leo thought for a moment that Donnie would decline his offer then, but to his pleasant surprise Donnie’s hand released it’s grip on Raph’s arm to move halfway to Leo’s fingers. Then after a slight pause Donnie gingerly rested his fingertips on Leo’s palm, glaring up at him in a slight pout as if daring him to prank him.
Leo couldn’t help being guiltily amused at the response, and just shook his head with a worried smile as he looped his hand underneath Donnie’s, just like he’d done once before. It was a motion that caused Donnie to blink and inhale slightly in surprise, but Leo could see some of the wariness practically melt from him because of it. He could take it slow, and wait for Donnie to follow when he was ready. He’d already shown that once before, and apparently it was enough for Donnie to trust him once again. So when Leo shifted to stand up it didn’t take much for Donnie to follow. Just a slight pause in anxiousness and having to detangle his feet from the blanket and Raph’s limbs. The blanket stayed with him though. Haphazardly gripped around him and over only one shoulder with his other hand as the one was being used by Leo to guide him to another room.
The meditation room was blessedly dimmer than the rest of the lair. Soft candle lights that barely shifted in their steady flame instead of the blaring LEDs. There wasn’t much of anything else in the room either. Just mat floors with several soft, well worn cushions. The most important part though was the foam sheets glued to the walls and ceiling, effectively muffling the outside world, especially when Leo mostly closed the door behind them. Seeing Donnie’s shoulders droop, and his expression relax halfway, Leo felt he could risk letting him go now. Letting his hand slip from his loose grasp, Leo moved back to the cushion he’d been sitting on just moments before and folded his legs under him. Then he offered Donnie another smile, and patted the other cushion next to him a few times before closing his eyes. He wanted to make sure Donnie knew he hadn’t dragged him in there to talk at him. Just give him somewhere peaceful to relax and collect his thoughts if he needed.
It took a minute before Leo heard any movement, but it was only seconds before he could feel a warmth nearby. And after a few moments of shuffling sounds the room stilled to a quiet calmness broken only by two sets of lungs. One calm, and one just a little shaky from sniffles. Cracking an eye open just a peek to check on Donnie, Leo almost let out a soft laugh when he saw the teen had chosen to flop on the floor and smash half his face into the cushion while hiding the rest of himself by being curled up in a tight ball under the blanket. Leo half raised a hand to reach out and gently pat his form, but then decided against it and let it lower back to his knee. Apparently having someone sling their arm around him had been the cause of the issue in the first place. So it would probably be better to just leave him alone now, and let him recover in peace.

I already had this part written when I posted the previous one |D that's why the fast update. I just don't like to spam more than around 1 - 2k words per post. Also I really like drawing pushed expressions so there was easy motivation to draw this next X'D
kudos to sokda-lal-ashes on tumblr, and lighthawke and Fangirling101B on AO3 for guessing right that it was good ole dumbass Casey being a brute X'D
And then mild concern for the rest of you jumping to biting. ô_ó My gosh the kid just woke up and hasn't eaten in half a day and you're all thinking he's gonna want to put filthy human in him mouth again.
And then a few of you went straight to murder and that's a bit higher in concern. 8 |
I did enjoy every comment though X'DDD it was a riot.
Fun fact I had 鹳之心弦 by Vanguard Sound playing on repeat while writing this whole thing. X'D

I just have to know… are they as jacked as they are in the show, or would they have like noticeably smaller muscles??? Bc they ain’t ninjas?? or does the insane amount of sports they all do make up for the not being ninjas?
Tumblr media
I think they're about on par! They're pretty a pretty active bunch, so they arguably do about as much (if not more) than the canon boys, since it's implied that their training is perhaps a bit, uh, sporadic when we first meet them at the start of the series! But they do have a bit less 'ninja training,' so to speak, though they're very capable martial artists! But, you know, they learned their martial arts in their dad's dojo in Brooklyn as an after-school activity...

More Rottmnt Headcanons
I know I’ve talked about turtle/animalistic noises before in other headcanon posts but I want to put them all in one place so here we go!
At first after just mutating none of the turtles could talk, they just made little chirps and churrs and hisses
Splinter wasn’t sure they would ever be able to talk until one day they started baby babbling at him specifically
Like the babies would still chirp at each other but since it appeared that he couldn’t understand those noises like they could they started babbling to try and talk to him like he talks to them
Slowly they learned to talk from then on, and wound up mixing it with turtle noises
Like when Mikey was happy or excited and couldn’t find the right words to express himself he’d chirp loudly and repeatedly
Donnie not being good with talking about feelings often resorts to turtle noises to express himself too
Mostly hissing and quiet chirps
Though after Mikey, Leo is the most vocal of the group
Sometimes he’ll just be sitting there in a turtle pile or movie night and just start churring contently
April calls it purring which Leo denies very loudly
Most of Raph’s noises are hard to hear for humans, his huge chest allows for very low noises to be produced
But it can be felt and April loves hugging him when he’s churring cause it makes his plastron rumble
He also snores too deep for humans to hear, but his brothers will insist he does and they find it comforting to snuggle up against actually
They don’t just chirp to express happiness but also to simply call out to each other
Like they’ll chirp as they enter the lair in an “I’m home!” kind of way
Or if they need to find each other around the lair they’ll chirp to locate one another
Developed this habit because Splinter scolded them for yelling across the entire lair while he was trying to watch his programs.
April has learned to mimic the “I’m here” chirp pretty accurately and uses it if she comes over unannounced

Donatello’s Big Book of Contingency Plans In Case His Family Turns Evil;
April: The only thing that will halt April if she decides to turn to the dark side is a reminder of the pure, innocent love there is in the world. Show her pictures of Mayhem. If he is to hand, hold him up under the shoulders, so his legs are dangling impotently in the air. This is the only thing I have ever discovered that can stop April mid-sentence, reducing her to a puddle of high-pitched noises and googly eyes - see Video Evidence, File 21. If this does not work, I am not so proud as to turn down a position as Right-Hand Turtle/Head Scientist in the O’Neil World Order.
Mikey: If Michael goes rogue, it will most likely be a manifestation of his loving/nurturing instincts combined with his latent hot tempter; see Dr. Delicate Touch, page 54, paragraph 23b, see The Lou Mike Tony’s Incident, page 64, paragraph 82c. Isolate and psychoanalyse – let Mikey talk himself out of his own homicidal tendencies by prompting him on why this need to lash out is actually a representation of being the youngest sibling of four, and therefore an all-consuming desire to find someone to protect in much the way he has been protected and babied all his life. Then, hugs. Regrettably.
Raph: Raph needs people, and Raph needs comfort – see Raph Alone, page 90, paragraph 2e, see Raph’s Experience With The Krang...the whole chapter, essentially. The Mental Reprogrammulater/Pizza Fun Box has already been turned into an impregnatable holding cell for just this situation; lined with soft, padded foam (so our dear Spiky Leader cannot harm himself thrashing against his restraints), filled with weighted blankets and stuffed animals. The MR/PFB is also kitted out with speakers, out of reach, playing pre-recorded loops of the entire family saying comforting, soothing phrases. These speakers can also communicate with a microphone outside the MR/PFB, if it is safe enough for us to be close. Then, we can slowly and gently remind our oldest brother that we are here for him – that everyone is safe, that he is not alone, and that whatever he is going through, it can be fixed.
Leo: Frying pan to the face.

Making up more head canons because I want to! (Rottmnt)
[Pain meter!]
Raph can take pain like a boss, doesn't mean he won't tear up a bit.
Leo would whine loudly when it only hurts a little. But he would suck up the pain the best he could when it's serious.
Donnie hates pain in any shape our form. He doesn't like things poking him and he doesn't like bruises. That's why he has all that protective gear! (and he especially doesn't like headaches. That's the one thing his gear can't help with.)
Mikey would ball his eyes out when he gets hurt, but when his brothers are around, he'd try and act tough about it. (but obviously failing.)
And April, She takes pain pretty well. But it all depends on her expressions to know how much she actually is in pain. Never the less, she would give a thumbs up whenever someone would ask if she was okay.

My favorite hc is that the boys are even now p consistently like how boys used to be before toxic masculinity hit them. Like the eras where everyone would play together in ur class without care. They've just always been there. While April instead is already overstressed bc girls in her class were already getting "girly".
So she befriends the guys and they're all rough housing but slowly she starts playing less and they're like ">:T hey. What's the big deal? You missed our pizza mud pie competition this week" "very important" "SUPER important" "You're SUPPOSED TO BE OUR JUDGE" and she's like "guys I can't, the girls in my class say being messy is gross and for boys" and the turtles are confused but can tell she's not feeling great so they try and do whatever they can that's boyish but not messy to try and pull her back in until winter where Leo just gives up and pelts her with a snowball and it's a chain reaction and they're like "WE DONT CARE IF YOURE A GIRL OR NOT YOU'RE OUR FRIEEEEND!" and she's giggling and getting pelted and she starts throwing them back or something. And it ends in a nice big hug. They're besties ur honor.

Leo comes out and Splinter is like “I already knew but know I accept you”
Which gives Mikey the courage to come out and Splinter is like “a little more surprising but okay”
Then Raph decides to join the party and come out and Splinter is like “I really didn’t see that one coming, Pride is going to be very busy this year.”
Then Donnie mentions to add him to the list and Splinter is like “do ANY of my children like girls?!”
April raises her hand.

Big Mama must have lost some serious standing in the yokai underworld because it’s gotten apparent that she keeps being beaten by a small group of teenagers and the occasional rat man, and when it’s not them then she’s taking L’s from her own schemes working against her.
And in the ensuing power vacuum, the Hamatos accidentally become the most feared crime family known to all the big bads of the Hidden City.
After all, they’ve publicly outplayed Big Mama multiple times, a couple of them have taken out the heads of two of the most well known criminal organizations, one took out Heinous Green, two are responsible for the destruction of Witch Town, they have ties to both the infamous Baron Draxum and Captain Piel, they won the Doom Dome death race, they’re Battle Nexus Champions, they’ve displayed insane feats of power and defeated impossibly strong enemies, most of them have been to jail, and they regularly mingle with humans.
You can just imagine the notoriety they’d accumulate from word of mouth alone.

🎃 ROTTMNT Halloween Headcanons 🎃
Haunted House (X Reader) Edition
Summary: Date night at a scare attraction with Reader!
Headcanons for: Raph, Donnie, Leo, Mikey, April, Cassandra, & Casey Jr
CW: Fluff, romance ig?, can be read as platonic, gn! reader
Halloween Headcanons - Haunted House Edition Pt. 1
Tumblr media
Raph:
Tumblr media
isn't too thrilled about the idea, would rather stay home with y/n and watch scary movies
but how can he say no to those cute lil' eyes?
has to hype himself up while waiting in line to be brave for y/n
"you can do this, raph. you're big. you're strong. you're definitely not afraid of a dumb ol' haunted house."
he will cling onto them the entire time and hide his face in their back
his arms will not leave their waist; it's his only lifeline rn
is v careful not to squeeze too hard tho
makes it farther than he usually does with his bros
does it all for y/n; he's gotta be there to protect them after all
has never made it all the way to the end tho
it usually ends with him running out of the house screaming like a little schoolgirl
carries y/n bridal style while he's running
refuses to stop until they've made it all the way back to the lair
promises to make it up to them every time tho
Donnie:
Tumblr media
honestly? why even bother?
he can show you scarier things out on the streets of new york than you'd ever see at a cliche scare attraction
begrudingly goes anyways; pretends its against his will but any time spent with y/n makes him v happy
not that he'd ever admit it
spends most of the time pointing out where and when most scares will occur
it really ruins the surprise for y/n but he genuinely doesn't notice he does it
"cue yet another garish hockey slasher approaching from the left corridor in 3... 2... 1...."
will occasionally tease y/n for getting scared but never pushes them past their limit
if y/n decides to tap out early, he'll understand
doesn't stop him from reaching the end tho
decides to video chat with y/n the entire time tho to show them "what they're missing out on /s"
adds a few unenthusiastic aaaah's while he's still inside to cheer y/n up for tapping out early
Leo:
Tumblr media
oho he is going to milk this opportunity to be your knight in shining armor
cocky and smug the entire time
promises y/n that they have nothing to fear as long as lightning leon is around!
will absolutely melt if y/n clings onto him
might even carry them koala bear style if they're too scared to move
"no te asustes, mi amor! let these big, strong arms protect you from the scary monsters!"
will probably jump out to scare y/n a few times
knows when to stop tho; he's not heartless!
finds it cute how scared they get and will let them know again and again how adorable they are
if y/n decides to tap out early, he does get a bit pouty but will leave with them
makes up for all his teasing with a big share of his candy haul
Mikey:
Tumblr media
won't say no to a date night with y/n!!
he'd jump into an active volcano if it meant getting to spend time with them!!
he doesn't mind if it's a bit scary for him.....
does his best to reassure y/n that they shouldn't be too scared! mikey's got their back!
is incredibly good at putting a brave face on the entire time
will cling to y/n as much as he can
might get a bit spooked every now and then, but as long as y/n's with him, he can power through anything
checks in often to make sure y/n is okay
"a-are you good to keep going? n-not that i'm scared, i just want you to feel safe!"
will immediately tap out if y/n starts getting overwhelmed or uncomfortable
if y/n makes it through to the end, he will absolutely brag to everyone about how brave and cool they are
April:
Tumblr media
she knows all the best spots and is psyched to take y/n to all of them!
will make a whole date week of it
v encouraging and supportive of y/n the whole time if they show any fear
"as long as we stick together, we've got this thing in the bag! we're the power couple to end all power couples!"
doesn't mind y/n clinging onto her and uses her hoodie as a face cover if they get a bit too scared
if she does get scared (rare), she will instictively reach out for y/n's hand
would never tease y/n for getting scared, but will giggle at how undeniably cute their screams are
lots of "scared face" selfies!!
tries to encourage y/n to keep going if they start slowing down but will not hesitate to tap out if needed
takes y/n to meet all the scare actors after closing to help them get over their fears a bit
likes to end the night with a horror movie marathon and a sweets binge
Cass:
Tumblr media
doesn't understand it.... but if it makes y/n happy then she must oblige
might need to be talked through the concept a few times while waiting in line
is a bit surprised and caught off guard if y/n decides to cling onto her
she won't reject it, she's just unsure how to reciprocate
she's definitely beat up a few scare actors that've gotten a little too close to y/n for comfort
"the masked one dares to threaten my y/n?! you will suffer unending retribution for your insolence!!"
will get incredibly angry if someone scares y/n too badly and demand an apology (and all of their candy)
keeps a close eye on y/n the entire time
if y/n decides to tap out early, she will swoop them up and carry them straight to the door
refuses to let them walk afterwards until they're absolutely 100% certain they're okay and not dying or anything
will consider it an incredible triumph if y/n makes it all the way to the end and will not let them forget just how amazing they are
Casey Jr:
Tumblr media
he's a bit wary at first, but he'd do anything to make y/n happy
is nervous and a bit worried for y/n
what if y/n gets hurt? what if they end up getting traumatized from all the scares? would they make fun of him for being afraid? would they see him as weak?
stays on guard the whole time; firmly plants himself between y/n and anything that might scare them
will become a flustering mess if y/n decides to hold onto him for comfort tho
insanely protective and ready to defend; had broken a few props bc of this tho
checks in even more than mikey; is just incredibly worried for y/n
"are you alright, y/n? do we need to leave? just let me know when you need anything. i'm right here for you."
if y/n decides to tap out, casey won't hesitate to pick them up bridal style and rush through the nearest exit
growing up in the apocalypse, casey is v quick to make an escape so getting out won't be a problem for him

More ROTTMNT headcanons: cause I’m bored
For the longest time, everyone thought Donnie was the second oldest 
But Draxum tells them that it’s actually Leo
And Leo loses his shit because he fucking knew it 
And he holds that over everyone's head until the day he dies 
Anytime Splinter tried to scold him he says something along the lines of “bold words from the man who couldn't even get our birth order right”
Donnie is still salty because even though no one treats him differently he claims he “doesn't feel respected”
And Leo will materialize out of thin air and say “how do you think I felt for 18 years”
Donnie is farsighted and Leo is nearsighted 
Donnie wore glasses until he found out what contacts were and made his own
Leo didn’t have to wear his glasses every day but he would get a headache if he didn’t use them at least once a week
And because he’s a stubborn little shit who’s “too cool for glasses” he ends up fucking up his eyesight
Now he can't see 5 feet in front of his face and Donnie has to make him contacts 
Because he might be legally blind but he still has standards 
Splinter also has terrible eyesight
He never wore normal glasses and he refused to wear contacts
So all he owned was prescription sunglasses 
April is legally blind her lenses are as thick as a brick
Donnie offered to make her contacts but she says that glasses add character 
She doesn’t want to admit that the idea of touching her eyes freaks her out 
She also can't be in the bathroom when the twins are putting in or taking out their contacts
It freaks/grosses her out
Mikey and Leo both had asthma when they were younger 
Mikey doesn't have it anymore and he claims he has “miracle lungs” 
But Leo has a lot of breathing problems after the movie
He can’t breathe when he’s sleeping without being hooked up to a machine
Raph ended up stealing said machine because Donnie couldn’t make it fast enough
Splinter and the boys have cloaking brooches but they never use them 
Cause one of the times, they went topside someone yelled “Lou Jitsu is that you?!” and Splinter freaked out and ran
Paparazzi were still able to get “exclusive footage of Lou and his secret kids!!” but that was the last time they went topside with the brooches 
Leo is the only one who looks halfway decent in that photo so he has it framed on his wall 
A lot of people are arguing about whether Casey Jr is actually Cassandra’s or not 
Some people think he is and some people think he’s a dumpster baby 
But my headcanon is Casey senior was Casey Jr’s godmother
And when Casey Jr’s birth mom died Casey adopted him and immediately changed his name to Casey
And if anyone wanted to say he wasn’t her kid she would say “what do you mean he’s not my kid he has the exact same name as me”
