Donny's info from my 03 separated au (which i think i'm just calling the Ninja Club au for now. b/c it's stupid and gives me high school vibes.)
But yeah! I wanted to post Mikey here as well, but he's not done yet. (my cringe son will have to get his own post. Darn lol.)
ANYWAYS! Details!
Donny, of course, was raised by the Jones family after they all got separated during a sewer collapse (or something. I may rework the that later) when they're about 2-3 yo. Donny gets found and brought home by a 9 yo Casey.
Splinter finds him when he's eight and spoke with him briefly. But Splinter was in disguise so Donny didn't recognize him past a vague feeling of safe (which he fought against b/c this is Donny.) After realizing that Donny is safe and well taken care of, Splinter leaves him be. (the best splinter could offer was a place in the sewers and if Donny was able to not live in the sewers, Splinter was not going to take that away from him.)
They gets reunited with most of his mutant family (Raph's still missing) when their fifteen. And that's only b/c Mikey refused to wait anymore and surprised him late at work before Splinter could tell him not to.
He's pretty confused about it all, at first, but he eventually happy to have contact with his siblings. (tho he's less stoked about the adventures he keeps getting dragged out on during school nights.)
for the first few months, he's very against learning to fight. He's a high schooler. Sure Mikey and Leo can fight, but that doesn't mean he has to learn.
But then there's an incident involving Shredder, Leo, and a very breakable window, and he realizes he needs to learn so he's not the weak link and so he can protect himself and his brothers. (it also helps that they found out the Shredder had been targeting Donny for said treatment first due to his lack of training and how easy it would be to grab him from school. But Donny hadn't went to school during those days so they went after Leo instead.)
I have so many stupid ideas for this, you have no idea. anyways, that's all for now. Mikey's might be up later today, but i have work to get to rn.
edit: Links for Mikey, Raphael, and Leo's info dumps

Rise!Bros X Reader: Christmas Mistletoes
Tumblr media
Summary: The turtles react to being under the mistletoe with them.
Pronouns: Gender Neutral (they/them)
Relationships: Dating but not official
===============================
Leo
• You were helping him carry groceries into the kitchen to prepare for Christmas dinner when he began using Christmas themed pick-up lines on you while you both stood in the doorway of the kitchen.
• Soon, Mikey gasped, pointing between the both of you.
• “You guys gotta kiss now!”
• Shocked at his exclamation, you both gazed up at where Mikey was pointing to see a mistletoe hanging down in the middle of the doorway.
• Leo sputtered while you avoided eye contact. You guys didn’t kiss that often, so it was always awkward at first.
• “Well, rules are rules.” The blue turtle chuckled with a shrug in an attempt to ease the tension.
• Without much thought, you stood on your tippy toes and quickly peck his lips.
• Leo stood astonished at your sudden authority, a dark green gracing his cheeks.
• He then grabbed your face and kissed you softly. When you two parted, he laughed.
• “This better be your best Christmas present to date.”
Raph
• You and Raph were putting up Christmas decorations. (You two were the ones who put all the mistletoes up in the first place.)
• When you were trying to reach a doorway, Raph quickly offered to help.
• Your hands made contact at the top of the doorway and your heart nearly jumped into your throat.
• Raph had the same feeling as he glanced down at you.
• “I think we screwed ourselves.” You laughed.
• The snapping turtle snickered before cupping your cheek and pecking your lips.
Mikey
• “Hey, (Y/N), look!” Mikey drew your attention.
• When you turned to look at him, you instantly cringed.
• In his hand was a mistletoe and he was headed straight towards you.
• “Mikey, no, it has to be in a doorway!” You stood to your feet.
• He ignored you and chased you around the lair with the mistletoe in hand.
• Eventually, you ran out of breath and he held the plastic leaves and red berries between the both of you.
• “Don’t be a sore loser, (Y/N).”
• You grumbled and ended up kissing him on the cheek.
Donnie
• Donnie was a special case because he didn’t believe in traditional holiday festivities.
• “C’mon, Dee,” you tried to convince him, “they can be fun!”
• “I refuse to partake in the glorification of a large man coming down the chimney to rob me of my cookies and milk but then leave me and my whole household gifts that he somehow knew we all wanted.”
• You weren’t exactly sure what he meant, but you shrugged and strutted over to him.
• “Fine. Then I guess you don’t wanna kiss me then.”
• Donnie furrowed his eyebrows. “What?”
• “You can only kiss me under the mistletoe.” You pointed across the lab towards the entrance where a mistletoe hung in the doorway.
• The turtle hummed to himself before a robotic arm extended from his Battle Shell. It reached across the room and grabbed the mistletoe off the doorframe.
• When it drew back, it hung the plant above the both of them.
• Without a word, Donnie leaned forward and pecked you gently.
• “I—you—you can’t…” you stuttered. “You have to be… under the doorway.”
• He smirked and then returned to his stoic expression so quick you weren’t sure if you’d even seen it.
• “You should’ve led with that.”

TMNT Fanfic Complaints
As this blog is mostly a space to vent, and I am currently obsessed with pretty much every iteration of the TMNT, I thought I'd throw together a list of things that make me close a fanfic instantly. If you like any of these things, then that's totally fine, but for the most part, any of these things will have me dropping a fic in minutes. A few of these are aligned with posts I've made in the past, but I am noting them down anyway as this is a way of me getting out a lot of my major complaints at once 😅
No.1 Having all the brothers be abusive (particularly towards Mikey), with bonus points for any crossover that will then have one version of the turtles chastising the others for the way they treat their brothers. It just doesn't work, every set have very specific dynamics, but none of them are abusive.
No. 2 Crossover fics that make it impossible to tell who is who. This can occur in a few different ways. One of which is that the authors completely fail to differentiate different universes, making every single version of the turtles talk and act in the same way. Another is when a fic gets flooded with nicknames/pronouns/usernames, without a decent key. If you have a crossover fic with even just 3 or 4 universes, but every single turtle has multiple sets of pronouns, multiple nicknames, and multiple usernames, you really need a way to make it clear who is who.
No.3 The 'poor baby Blue' phenomenon in which every version of the turtles seemingly forgets all of the horror they have suffered because of what the Rise boys have gone through, particularly Leo. I honestly hate it when I am reading a crossover fic and all of the trauma from every series is disregarded in the face of the Rise Shredder and Rise Krang, which brings me on to my next point...
No.4 Essentially an extension of No.3, but can we all finally drop the idea that the Rise Boys had the scariest villains? Sure, their Shredder and Krang were intense, but for the most part, their villains are all pretty much played for comic relief. Either 03 or 12 had the scariest villains. And before anyone comes at me like 'Oh, Rise Shredder was a demon, the Rise Krang managed to take over the world, etc', may I remind everyone that 03 also had a demon Shredder who took over the world (and multiple others including the one who took over in SAINW), and the 12 Triceratons straight up destroyed the Earth with a black hole?
No.5 Fics that give away traits from one turtle to another e.g. making any of the other turtles better at science/math/tech etc than Donnie. Each of the turtles has their own thing, and Donnie will always be the smartest academics wise. It annoys me to no end when people try and make any if the others, usually Rise Leo or 12 Mikey, out to be a genius like him. I actually once read a fic where Rise Donnie asked Leo to help someone with a chemistry question that he couldn't handle. It's ridiculous, and usually carries over from the headcanon that Rise Leo is the medic (is there genuinely any evidence for this in the show besides Leo having a pouch? Because the only time I can recall anything medical related being brought up was when Donnie mentioned Raph's allergies). I have also seen people talk about Rise Leo loving to dance more than Donnie, even when the show explicitly states on multiple occasions how much Bootyyyshaker9000 loves to dance (also making Leo a massive theatre kid when Donnie breaks into songs and dance numbers on multiple occasions.) Or when 12 fans make Mikey the artist when it is actually Raph.
No. 6 (people will probably be mad at this one) Stop making everything about Leosagi, please! He doesn't even exist in the Rise verse, yet the entire fandom is absolutely swamped with Leosagi content. It's annoying when you are reading a Rise fic, and then out of nowhere it all becomes about Leo's relationship with Usagi. These fics also tend to make Usagi the most bland character in existence, with his two defining traits being samurai and Leo's boyfriend. They even do this to Bayverse!! Or bizarre crossover ships that start taking over everything (Why is Mikey being shipped with pretty much all of the spiderman iterations now??(
No. 7 Any fic that has all of the Donnies despise each other. I don't know if this is bias, but I feel like most of the Donnies would enjoy having people on their level to discussbthings with, people who would respect their boundaries and listen to each other's rants. And before anyone brings up their egos, most of the Donnies are shown to be able to and even enjoy working with others who are around their level (Aprils, Leatherhead in 03, Fugitoids etc). I actually think that, aside from the Mikeys, the Donnies would probably get on the best.
No. 8 One of my biggest pet peeves (that I have complained about before) is acting as if any version of the turtles is far superior to the others in terms of intelligence, fighting skills, etc. The Rise boys do not solo every verse. If they had had more training, then yeah, they would be probably some of the strongest characters. But they haven't had the training of the other verses, and mystic powers cannot compensate for everything (considering the fact that they got absolutely bodied by their Krang, you think more people would realise this). The other iterations pretty much all have more formal training, more experience fighting a variety of opponents (Bayverse and the 90s are perhaps an exception to the greater variety of opponents here, but as Bayverse Raph alone can yeet a shipping container singlehandedly with no powers, I think they're good). In no universe should the Rise boys be giving any of the other characters fighting tips.
I will probably write more of these at some point, this was pretty cathartic 😅 I also promise that I do not hate Rise, I just have more issues with the wider Rise fandom than most of the other shows.

Listen (F!Reader Insert)
Tumblr media
A/N: When the movie trailer dropped, I knew there are many opportunities for angsty fan fiction, so I kind of took one. Some of the dialogue is canon, everything else is from my imagination. Anyway, getting the characters’ "character” was a challenge. I’ll appreciate any constructive criticism to improve it. Enjoy!
Summary: Casey Jones is trying to warn them of their future.
Pairing(s): Rise! Leo X Reader (Established Relationship)
Reader: Feminine pronouns are used. No actual appearance, only mentions.
Genre: Humor / Slight Angst
Warning(s): Rushed writing. Written before release. Mentioned character death.
Word Count: ~840
~
“So what’s your business with our friend, pal?”
Casey slowly opened his eyes, groaning through the headache. The world seemed upside-down, but judging from the ropes tying his body to a chair, he got the memo. So he was knocked out and taken into the underground subway station. The human boy grimaced; the stench reeked here.
In front of him stood four mutant turtles, in addition to the presence of a sewer rat and another human. “Master.. Leonardo?” Casey murmured as he recognized the blue eye-mask and red markings.
“Hey, did you hear that?” Mikey gasped. “He knows your name!”
Leon smirked. “And he added a nice ring to it, too.”
“So Blue does mature after all.” Splinter scratched his fur.
“Great,” Donnie rolled his eyes. “Thank you for inflating his ego.”
“Guys, come on now—,” Raph began.
“Shh. Give a minute, hermanos, I’ve got a plan.” Leon announced with confidence.
All the voices blurred. Casey glanced around groggily, only to realize there was one person missing from the group. “(Name).... Urgh…. Where’s.. where’s (Name)?”
The group quieted down.
“Oho, skipping the introductions, are we?” Leon narrowed his eyes. He stepped closer to the human boy. “You got something against her too? …I’d let it go if I were you,” he threatened.
“This is what happens when random people jump straight to asking about his girlfriend before doing introductions,” Donnie remarked. Casey panicked under Leon’s glare, especially once he saw Leon pull out his katana. “Hey, hey!” Casey shook fervently. “Hold on a minute! It’s not—.”
“My hermanos, what do you think we should do with him?” The turtle pointed with the tip of his blade.
“Ooh, ooh!” Mikey raised his hand. “Give him a nasty haircut!”
Raph thrusted his fist forward. “We could use a nice punching bag.”
“Or here’s a better idea,” Donnie pulled down his goggles, doing a quick analysis of Casey, “how about I alter his brain, so we can remote-control him?”
“Pfft. Think we’ve scared him enough, boys.” April clapped her hands, making them drop the act and fall into laughter. Raph was snickering in back, seeing Casey all pale and shaken up. “Oh man, that was good.”
“Okay, okay, okay.” Leon wiped a tear. “In all seriousness, who are you, ‘cause we need to call you something other than— I don’t know, human guy?”
“...The name’s Casey Jones—.”
“Hold up, Jones as in Cassandra Jones? Never knew she has a brother,” April asked.
“Son,” he grumbled. God, how many times would they be interrupting him? “I’m her son.”
“Guys, I think he’s gone insane,” Donnie remarked.
“Careful, Don,” Mikey hushed. “Maybe he’s got trauma, and was put up with his sister being the mother role.”
Leon scratched his chin. “Seriously? Casey— I mean, Cassandra here— acting like anyone close to a mother?”
“For the record, I’m not insane!”
“Then, explain how you might be Cassandra’s son, when you’re just about her age.”
“Woah, Donnie, don’t tell me—.”
“That I took DNA samples from his teeth while he were knocked out? Why yes, yes I did.”
Casey shook in the air, which only had the rope swinging him from side to side. “Listen! You want to know how I’m her son? Simple answer is: I’m not from your time.”
“Huh?”
“...Is this going where I think it is?” Donnie covered his own mouth with his hand.
“I know how this sounds,” Casey cautioned. “But I need you to believe me, because I’m from… the future.”
Once again, everyone bursted out into laughter. In fact, even Splinter was amused.
“Y-you cannot be serious!” Donnie crouched over, dying. “That’s not possible!”
“Look, person named Casey,” Raph wiped another tear, “no offense, but if you’re trying to scare us, I can assure you you’ve got better things to do.”
“No! I’m trying to warn you guys about the future!”
“Right,” Leon rolled his eyes playfully. “And uh… how do we know whether we should take your word for it?”  
“Because if you won’t do something about this,” Casey’s face contorted in anger, “(NAME) IS GOING TO DIE!”
Noise slipped into immediate silence. Everyone stopped, eyes wide.
“Woah, woah,” Raph’s tone lowered, “You crossed the line there, pal.” The snapping turtle looked to his red-eared brother in concern. He found Leon clenching his hands and narrowing his eyes. “Yeah. There are other ways to get us to listen, y’know.”
“But you wouldn’t listen! And I’m not lying when I—!”
“Then, what are you talking about?!”
“Fine. Let’s start over.” Casey sighed, “My name is Casey Jones. In the future, an alien race by the name of Kraang decimated the planet. Master Leonardo gave me a mission: find the key and stop them.
When I arrived, I couldn’t recognize the place at all. Seeing Commander O’Neil, I thought she could the best person to start with.”
“What’s (Name) got to do here?” Donnie questioned.
“She—.” Casey hesitated, meeting Leon’s eyes. The red-eared slider crossed his arms. “Say it.”
“…She was killed trying to save Master Leonardo.”

hey!! if you’re taking requests, i’d like to request the tmnt 2012 turtles 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. 🫶
hi! i hope i got what you wanted! sorry if it's not what you hoped for ;-; i don't know if you wanted headcanon or scenario type writing so i went for headcanon style!
notes: fem!reader, pronouns used: you/your and she/her
Turtles Falling For A Raph-Like Fem!Reader
Leonardo "Leo" Hamato
When Leo first met you and saw that you had attitude, his first thought was 'Oh, great, another Raph.'
It took them a while to get past your rough and tough exterior, but once they got to know you better, they started falling, and they fell HARD.
Full on tripping over her words, getting flustered easily, you're the only thing on her mind when she realizes that she likes you.
Definitely talks to Master Splinter about you.
Would never bring his crush on you up to his brothers, especially Raph.
"So when I have an attitude, you hate it, but when she has an attitude, you think it's adorable?!" would be Raph's reaction upon finding out.
Because you are very head-strong, sometimes you and Leo end up butting heads due to your opinions differing.
You would definitely be work out buddies with Raph.
Also when fixating on something, Mikey loves having infodump sessions with you, especially if you both are fixated on something similar/the same thing.
Leo loves when you get along with their brothers.
Raphael "Raph" Hamato
In the beginning, you and Raph are constantly butting heads. You both are very short-tempered and head-strong so when your opinions differ, it's a bull match between you two.
After some time, it's not as bad as it was, you learn to compromise.
They teach you some stuff as a way of flirting without being obvious.
It takes a while for him to get a crush on you, he's supposed to be the tough guy, he doesn't have time for feelings.
But everytime you remind them that being strong involves being in tune with your feelings, they start to allow themself to fall for you.
He doesn't understand his feelings for you, he's confused. Like 'Why does my stomach feel weird whenever we're training together? Why can't I think straight when I talk to her?'
They don't want to get teased by their brothers so they keep their crush a secret, but everyone knows, except for you.
Donatello "Donnie" Hamato
Similar to Leo, he's not excited that you are basically another Raph. He's not a fan of the short-tempered, sarcastic, loudness that is you.
Being more logical and rational, he clashes with your 'punch first, ask questions later' attitude. But hey, they do say opposites attract.
Once he realizes that he's starting to like you, he tries to avoid you as much as possible. He's had his human-mutant "relationship" experience and it didn't go well. *cough* April *cough*
When you let down your tough exterior is when he falls hard, he basically smacked the floor with how hard he fell.
He's in love with your sense of humor. If you were to crack a joke that had anything to do with science or robotics, he would fall harder than ever.
Michaelangelo "Mikey" Hamato
Being the baby brother, Mikey knows how his hot-headed brother is. He knows that Raph can be caring, despite the rough exterior.
Mikey figures you're the same way. Tough on the outside, soft on the inside.
They fall hard and fast, completely head over heels for you. They're like a lovesick puppy, following at your feet, treating you like a princess.
His crush on you is obvious to everyone, except you. At first, you think it's annoying how he's always bu your side, but over time, he starts to grow on you.
If you were to come into the kitchen when they were cooking and matched his goofy energy, they would break. They love it so much.
Don't even get me started on when you both are hyper together. You two being energetic and chaotic, he loves it! Although the others aren't too happy with all the commotion if they're busy (which they most likely are).
Have a good day/night! :)

Hi!! Can I please have a maze runner and the lord of the rings romantic matchup?? (and forgive me if I make a mistake in the writing, I'm not fluent in english yet♡)
I'm pansexual and genderfluid, that uses all the pronouns.
I'm a brazilian, my house is Slytherin (but I have LOTS of Ravenclaw qualities), my sign is Leo and MBTI is INTJ. I have tan skin, dimples, brown eyes, straight black hair that goes below my waist and bangs. About my body, I think what stands out the most are the really thick thighs and the hands and feet that are really small. I wear glasses (I have astigmatism and myopia, my grade is VERY high); where i live is SO hot but i really like to wear sweats and pants so sometimes it's kind of hard but i think i wear any kind of clothes? I like to experiment with new styles and I really want to dye my hair but I didn't have the opportunity; I'm absolutely addicted to wearing necklaces, bracelets and especially rings, I'm always wearing several.
I have a quiet, observant, sarcastic and motherly personality, although from a distance it seems that I will be rude to you, I will actually be very calm and give you soft smiles. I can get stressed out easily but I don't show anything but glare, and above all I NEVER raise my voice, even in a fight the only thing I'm going to do is keep my voice calm with a firm, authoritative tone. I LOVE protecting and caring for people and listening to them talk about what they like, I always give them my FULLY attention. My love language is 100% touch, I am always touching the people I like and care about. Another thing is that I'm not a submissive person in a relationship, like no.
I'm completely in love with all kinds of art, especially dancing (I'm ALWAYS dancing while listening to music, which is pretty much all day long) and drawing/painting (sometimes I end up doing a whole drawing and not even realize it). I love reading and I always have a book with me, physical or digital. I love animals, I have cats, dogs, parrots, turtles and cockatiels, and I would give my life for them all without a second thought. Oh, I also love anything horror related with passion and bake, most of the time I don't even eat, I just bake and give it to people because I love it when they say they like what I made.
Hii sorry this took so long
Masterlist
Matchup -closed
Request-open
I pair you with Arwen
I think I’m the beginning of your relationship Elrond wasn’t the fondest of you but as time went on he grew to see you as family
Like with Aragon she has give you some type of jewellery but you also gave her one so your matching
She finds it cute that when you two are together and your board you will play with her hands or hair
I defo could see you and her falling asleep together watching the sun set
I pair you with newt
Like newt your only louder when you need to be
He has defo tired to learn your mother language but allways gave up
He has defo also taken your glasses and probably broken them once as well
He finds it cute when he wakes up and your laying agents him
He will dance in the rain with you no matter how much he said no you will make him

This fucking thing has been kicking around inside my head for weeks and writer's block has been such a bitch but suddenly I just went fuck this. Here have a quick thing of transfemme Leo.
-----------
Leo kneels before Splinter feeling like her chest is about to explode, every possible iteration of the rehearsed speech she had been concocting flying out the window the moment her weight settles in the tatami. She's trembling and she knows he can tell, he always has seen straight through her in every way. Every way except this. It has taken her so long to accept that her master, her father, is fallible and can have blindspots. She hasn't even told her brothers yet and while she has some idea of how they'll react, Splinter is a complete unknown.
Subjects of the LGBT have been few and far between since they stepped out into the world. They always sort of settled into the traditional roles and identities that they'd been raised with, never questioning things like gender or sexuality. For a long time the only concept of gender they had was 'ninja' and 'kunoichi'. There wasn't really a third concept to reorient them beyond binary. And the only differentiation between the two they understood was that the four of them were ninja. Not kunoichi. These concepts began to expand as they grew and the concept of 'boy' and 'girl' came with the advent of what Splinter could roughly identify as puberty in his mutant children.
Splinter raised them with the traditions and values he grew up with and along with those came the fairly linear view of gender connecting to physical sex. His turtles had all been expected to be male and so he had raised them as sons and ninja.
While Leo knew she was physically the same as her brothers, it felt wrong somehow. Like her shell was too tight or she was too small or the behaviors she learned were instinctive for them just didn't fit either. She couldn't explain it until April explained the concept of transgender. Being born with a physical sex that didn't match your gender identity. She'd spent so long chewing on the concept and how it related to her situation. Part of her felt like it would be a betrayal to her family to choose this route, that she needed to be a son and a brother because that was her role. That's what she has been raised to be.
Part of her wishes she had never known that there was an option. The deep-seated feeling of 'not enough' and 'wrong' and 'need to be better' were easy enough to equate as struggling to be a leader. But the more she thought about it, the more she realized that some of it was feeling like the title 'brother' was an insult or being called 'son' was a betrayal. Hell, her name never sat right with her. Even though Splinter told them that they had picked their own names as tots, it made her stomach turn. Nothing fit and nothing felt right. The only ease she has felt was mulling her pronouns around in her head for the past couple weeks. 'She' just felt right.
But she very well knows that she can't keep this from her family, not like she tried with so many other things that she has time and time again been called out for. They deserve to know this part of her.
"What is the matter, Leonardo?"
The young turtle jolts, realizing that she has been sitting silent a little too long. She takes a deep breath as she raises her eyes to look at her sensei, her father. "I need to.....to tell you something....."
"Yes, my son?" His tone is soft, full of concern and fatherly affection. Ever patient, ever wise and good. It doesn't make it hurt less to hear him call her that.
"I.....for a long time.....I mean.....I didn't realize......Ugh, why is this hard?" Leo feels her face heat up in frustration as she struggles to get the words out. She huffs another breath and forces it out. "I've realized something about myself that could change the way you see me"
"Is that so?"
"Yes, master. You've always raised us to be a certain way, to be ninja and men of honor. To do good."
"Are you having doubts about these things?"
"No! They're all things I have upheld for so long and I wouldn't turn my back on that for the world."
"Then what is it that is different, my son?"
"I'm not your son!" It slips out before she can stop herself and she can feel the panicked tears filling her eyes in second as she looks at Splinter's stung expression. "I mean......fuck, what I mean is......I'm not 'a son'. I'm not......a man."
Splinter breathes out softly at those words, ears twitching quizzically. Clearly mulling that over. "So.....you are a young women then?"
Leo nods, trembling harder and fighting back the tears that are threatening to spill over. Hands paling as she grips her knees in an effort not to run.
Splinter eyes her for a long, horrible moment. "How long have you felt this way?"
"My whole life I think? I just never had the words to voice it. I thought I could make it go away by being the perfect ninja. That if I was good enough I wouldn't feel like something was wrong with me." Her voice is shaking so badly that she can barely get the words out but she just manages.
And then Splinter's expression softens in a way Leo hasn't seen very often. She barely noticed him moving closer to her until his knees are touching her and he places a hand on her shoulder. "You have been suffering in silence for so long, my daughter. I am sorry that I did not see you for who you truly were. Can you forgive me for failing you in this way?"
Leo's taken aback by that, shouldn't she be the one apologizing for not being what he needed her to be? Her hand closes around the rat mutant's wrist, searching for some sense of stability. "You have never failed me a day in my life, Master....but you don't mind? This isn't a betrayal of my role?"
"Leonardo, your role in this family is to lead your brothers and to be part of it. You choose the path that allows you to fulfil those roles in whatever capacity is most authentic to yourself. You are just as much a leader if you are a woman, your brothers are still your brothers even if you are now a sister."
Leo still flinches at the sound of that name but the rest of Splinter's words soothe the sting enough that she is smiling by the time he calls her a sister. "Thank you, Master."
Splinter embraces her briefly but tightly and it's more than she could ask for from him. A final affirmation that she's accepted and loved. "Now, do your brothers know?"
"Uhm, no. I wanted you to be the first in case they freak out and you can back me up." She twiddles with the tails of her mask nervously as she speaks. Feeling a little guilty about hiding things from them. She's still not sure how well it'll go.
"I see. Well, they will accept you either way. They are often times difficult but never doubt that they love you, Leonardo." She flinches again at the name but nods at his affirmation. He must notice this time because his eyes are scrutinizing for a long moment.
"You know, I've had many years to consider how I would handle your raising differently if you were not the same as you are." His tone is carefully conversational, but she can tell he's getting at something.
"Really? In what ways?"
"Mainly just questioning if I had taught you properly or if your personalities had been different. I had even considered what I might do if I had daughters instead of sons at one point." Leo can't help the weird swoop her stomach does knowing he had thought about it and that he would've always accepted her this way.
"If I had known you were a daughter, I certainly wouldn't have named you Leonardo." That affirmation makes her chest warm, a sudden manic curiosity taking hold of her.
"What would you have named me if you raised me as a girl?"
"I don't know what I would have called you back then, but seeing the strong, beautiful young woman you have become. I know exactly what i would call you now if you no longer wish to be Leonardo."
"And what's that?"
"Venus. I had initially named you for masters of my favorite period in art but I feel you deserve something stronger. A creation out of antiquity depicting a goddess of love and beauty but was also a strong warrior herself. I think it fitting for a young kunoichi."
The young turtle mulls the name over in her head for a few moments. Quietly murmuring to herself, smiling. "Hamato Venus. Venus Hamato. Venus. Huh, I think I like it. Thank you, Sensei."
Splinter nods approvingly, a gentle smile of his own on his face. After a moment he stands. "Come, Venus. We must tell your brothers the good news."
"Hai, Sensei."

Dumping some headcanons cuz my brain go brrrrrrrrrrrr and I can't draw all of them
These are gonna be random so don't expect a theme
Btw, the ones that are about the turtles when they're older is based of these
- Leo and Donnie (late 16) got their eyebrow piercings together. In fact, they did them on each other.
- like duh Donnie is autistic and Mikey is ADHD but so is Leo and Raph (Raph autistic and Leo ADHD)
- after the shredder but before the kraang, Draxum went to each of the brothers rooms and apologized to them, individually, about his past actions and for the harm he caused. (Yes, he straight up says sorry to Leo about throwing him off a roof)
- the only ones who can actually sing is Splinter, April and Mikey. Leo technically has a good voice but hes a bit tone deaf and doesn't sing much. Donnie sings more then Leo but Leo is still better. Raph can't sing, not that he doesn't but his voice is more talk-y when he sings.
- donnie and Leo (13) came out as trans at the same time (accidentally), and Leo (14) came out as gay later. Donnie never came out as bi, just started wearing a pin. Mikey (late 15) did the same thing about her gender and sexuality. Raph never came out because he never thought about it until he was 18.
- Draxum was (either) in the hidden city at court or was at a Dinner-Lady conference during the kraang attack.
- when Casey first meets Draxum, he didn't know who he was, untill he realised he was also 'dad' that future!Leo used to talk about. He just assumed Leo was only talking about splinter.
- Leo calls both splinter and Draxum 'dad' cuz he thinks it's funny to confuse them and everyone else around him. Mikey calls splinter 'pops and papa' and Draxum 'dad'. Raph and Donnie calls splinter 'dad' (and all the other father nicknames) and only refer to Draxum by his name. (Tho, one time Raph called him 'pops' and it hit him to his core).
- Donnie was the one to suggest pronoun bracelets to Mikey when they figured out that Mikey was genderfluid. Mikey ended up making everyone pride bracelets.
- Raph has a few tattoos on his arms. he got his first one at 18 at a yokai tattoo shop and it was a dragon (cuz why not). one of them says 'あなたは一人じゃない' ('you are not alone') and another one is a sai.
- Leo also has a tattoo. It's a stick and poke he did himself on his ankle (like an idiot). He did it when he was 17, it took all night and it immediately got infected. It's literally just a shitty star.
- April is an intersex lesbian and is dating Sunita.
- Leo started collecting rings when he was like 12 and has slowly started wearing them around 16. He likes to stim by wiggling his fingers and hearing the clicks. Donnie hates it.
Idk if ya want more headcanon send me an ask!
Or if ya want me to draw any of these send me an ask!
Or just send me an ask if ya wanna say hi..

Sing to Me (2k16 Version)
Tumblr media
(My personal head canon is that all the Leos love country music and will unironically blast it in the lair when their brothers are away).
Summary: It was late night in the lair, Mikey and Raph were out grabbing Pizza, and Donnie was out wanting to grab supplies for a new project he was working on. Leo had the lair to himself and decided why not to blast his comfort music.
Warnings: Y/n uses she/her pronouns, personal head canons, light swearing, fluff
---
Leo hardly got time alone in the lair; he loved to bask in the quietness of it.
Splinter knew of Leo's little secret; Splinter caught Leo in the kitchen dancing and singing as the radio played loudly. Splinter got a little kick out of seeing his stoic and stern leader of a son having fun and singing without a care in the world.
When Leo got caught; he apologized, saying that he'd turn the music down. Splinter just shook his head and lifted a hand stopping him. "Go ahead, I just wanted to see what you were doing," that's when the old rat walked back to his room to meditate. Leo was touched to say the least.
Leo was once again, back in the kitchen, the radio playing Morgan Wallen. A mix of the country artist's accent and Leo's voice filled the empty quietness of the lair. Leo bopped his head while he made his tea. He was so distracted by his own singing and dancing that he didn't hear the faint footsteps behind him.
---
The turtles met you when Leo saved you from falling debris from the Kraang's ship destroying some buildings while it was assembling itself. After that, the two of you were close, really close. Which confused you when you heard country music originating from the room where Leo was in.
You never took any of the guys to like country; yet here was the blue terrapin, listening and singing along to Morgan Wallen. You let out a soft giggle, as Leo swiftly moved across the kitchen while simultaneously dancing and singing the words that flowed from the radio's speakers.
You walked over to the radio, turning it down as Leo's voice bounced off the stone walls of the kitchen. Your heart skipped a beat, his voice was beautiful; the way the words flawlessly rolled off his tongue. He turned towards the radio and his heart jumped out of his chest.
You jumped as well seeing how much Leo jumped out of his own shell seeing you. "Y/N?" he stammered. "What are you doing here?"
"I came to see you guys, but I guess that the others aren't around. Is this some dirty little secret?" you voiced, teasingly.
"Please, Y/n, don't tell the others. I won't hear the end of it," he pleaded. You smile softly, of course you weren't, you loved this turtle too much to hurt him like that.
"Naw, I ain't going to do that," soft music came from the radio as you wrapped your arms around his waist. His face flushed,
"Thank you," he whispered softly against your shoulder.
"Wanna dance?" he let out a chuckle,
"Why not." You turned the music back to its original volume. His voice was a whisper as he sung the words,
"She wants to get married; she wants it perfect; she wants her granddaddy preaching the service. She wants magnolias, out in the country; not too many people, save her daddy some money." You let out a giggle, "ooh, she's got it all planned out; yeah, I can see it all right now. I wear my black suit, black tie; out in the back, I'll do a strong shot of whiskey, straight out the flask. I'll try make it through without crying, so nobody sees that, yeah, she wants to get married, but she don't wanna marry me."
You stare up at his big Sapphire eyes as he continued, "I remember the night when, I almost kissed her. Yeah, I kind of freaked out, we've been friends for forever." he let out a small chuckle, "And I'd always wondered if she felt the same way; when I got the invite, I knew it was too late. And I know...her daddy's been dreading this day, awe but he ain't the only one giving her away. I'll wear my black suit, black tie; out in the back, I'll do a strong shot of whiskey straight out the flask. I'll try to make it through without cry, so nobody sees, yeah, she wants to get married, but she don't wanna marry me."
Time felt like it stopped, your heart pounding against your ears. "But she got a long dress now; welcoming the guests now; I can try to find her, get it off of my chest now. But I ain't going to mess it up, so I'll wish her the best night. So, I'm in my black suit, black tie; I'm out in the back; doing a strong shot of whiskey, straight out the flask. I'll try to make it through without crying, so nobody see, yeah, she wanna get married, yeah, she's going to married. But she ain't going to marry me."
Something about Leo made you see him in a different light; he was your best friend, you loved him, but this was different. Your heart started to speed up; your arms wrapped around his neck, arms wrapping so safely around your waist in an embrace made you feel safe. Safer than you've ever felt before.
Your hands traveled from his neck to his shoulders; his rough scales brushing against your fingertips. Leo let out a soft churr as he leaned toward, his lips barely a hairline away from yours. It all felt like a dream; your fingers twitched as he started to lean in the rest of the way.
CRASH!
"We're back!" Leo jumps, turning off the radio. He turned away from you and vice versa. The tea kettle began to scream as Leo took it off the burner; you were in the fridge, pretending like you were about to grab a drink.
---
The earlier night's events played in your head as you tried to sleep. Your heart raced as you tried to not think about how you almost kissed your best friend; his rough scales feeling soft against your fingertips; how his breath barely fanned your face. How his lips were so close that you could barely feel them against your own. How. How. How.
Knock! Knock!
You gasp, lifting yourself off of your mattress. Turning, you saw a large shadow outside your window. You slipped off your bed and walked over to the window; there on your balcony was the familiar blue turtle. But he wasn’t wearing any of his gear; a big, leather jacket and jeans to ward off the cold mid-fall weather.
"Leo?" you whisper as you stood on the balcony.
"Hey," he greeted, still not looking in your direction.
"Is something wrong?"
"Couldn't sleep," he admitted. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come here; did I wake you up?"
"No," you admit. Your head leaned against his arm; Leo felt himself stiffen.
"Can we talk about earlier?"
"Sure."
"I'm sorry," you glance up at him.
"For what?"
"Almost kissing you, I was crossing a line." You stare up at him bewildered, "You're my friend; I'm sorry," you softly put your palm over his hand as he gripped the metal railing. You force him to turn his hand as your fingers intertwined with his--to the best of your ability--Leo looked at you, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.
"Don't apologize; what happened to the Leo in the kitchen, the Leo was singing his heart out to me, the Leo that was actively flirting with me?" He let out a nervous laugh,
"I guess the music helped the confidence boost," he admitted, taking his free hand and rubbing the back of his neck. "Silly, isn't it?"
"No," you whisper. Going up on your toes, your arms wrap around his neck as you captured his lips into yours. He let out a small squeak in surprise; he slowly wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer.
Pulling away, his blue eyes shinned silver against the city lights. You reached up, cupping his cheek, while your thumb brushed against the scales of his face. You loved seeing him without his mask; it was personal to see him without it; it was a sign of trust.
"Wanna dance?" You repeated your question from the kitchen. He nodded, the two of you enter your room as Leo discarded his phone on your bed as music played softly in the background.
"I'm jealous of blue jeans that you're wearing, and the way they're holding you so tight." Leo sung, "I'm jealous of the moon that keeps on staring, so lock the door and turn out the night. I want you all to myself, we don't need anyone else; let our bodies to the talking; let out shadows paint the wall." You smile as he continued, "I want you here in my arms, we'll hide away in the dark. Slip your hand in my back pocket, go and let your long hair fall. I want you all to myself, to myself."
"I'm jealous of the song that you've been singing, and the way it's rolling off your lips. It might be selfish, but I'm thinking, I don't need nothin' between you leanin' for another kiss, yeah. I want you all to myself, we don't need anyone else. Let out bodies to the talking, let our shadows paint the wall. I want you hear in my arms; we'll hide away in the dark. Slip your hand in my back pocket; go and let your long hair fall. I want you all, all, all, to myself, to myself."
You lean forward, pressing your lips back to his. "Girl, I want you in the worse way; yeah, I want you in the worse way." You let out a laugh as he hummed against your neck. "I want you all to myself, we don't need anyone else. Let our bodies to the talking; let our shadows paint the wall. I want you hear in my arms; we'll hide away in the dark! Slip your hand in my back pocket, go and let your long hair fall! I want you, all, all, all to myself, to myself. I want you all, all, all, to myself, to myself, yeah!"
You rolled your eyes playfully, "Who knew you could be such a sap." He let out a chuckle,
"Me, I'm pretty sure."
"Also flirty," his face flushed.
—-
He walked you over your window. "Are you sure you don't want to spend the night?"
"As much as I'd love to. I really don't want to get interrogated by anyone when I get back," he explained. You pouted, "I'll see you tomorrow." You blushed as he pressed a kiss against your temple.
Before he could leave, you grab the arm of his jacket. He paused, turning back towards you with a confused look. "You missed," before he could respond your lips were back on his. Pulling away, he stared at you in a daze; you snap your fingers in front of his face.
Shit, you broke him!

🌙 Hi!! Can I please have a Tolkien, Harry Potter, Marvel and a Star Wars romantic matchup?? Thank You! (and forgive me if I make a mistake in the writing, I'm not fluent in english yet♡)
I'm pansexual and genderfluid, that uses all the pronouns.
I'm a brazilian, my house is Slytherin (but I have LOTS of Ravenclaw qualities), my sign is Leo and MBTI is INTJ. I have tan skin, dimples, brown eyes, straight black hair that goes below my waist and bangs. About my body, I think what stands out the most are the really thick thighs and the hands and feet that are really small. I wear glasses (I have astigmatism and myopia, my grade is VERY high); where i live is SO hot but i really like to wear sweats and pants so sometimes it's kind of hard but i think i wear any kind of clothes? I like to experiment with new styles and I really want to dye my hair but I didn't have the opportunity; I'm absolutely addicted to wearing necklaces, bracelets and especially rings, I'm always wearing several.
I have a quiet, observant, sarcastic and motherly personality, although from a distance it seems that I will be rude to you, I will actually be very calm and give you soft smiles. I can get stressed out easily but I don't show anything but glare, and above all I NEVER raise my voice, even in a fight the only thing I'm going to do is keep my voice calm with a firm, authoritative tone. I LOVE protecting and caring for people and listening to them talk about what they like, I always give them my FULLY attention. My love language is 100% touch, I am always touching the people I like and care about. Another thing is that I'm not a submissive person in a relationship, like NO, AT ALL; and i absolutely hate going into water, like, sea, pools, lake, I don't know how to swim and I panic.
I'm completely in love with all kinds of art, especially dancing (I'm ALWAYS dancing while listening to music, which is pretty much all day long) and drawing/painting (sometimes I end up doing a whole drawing and not even realize it). I love reading and I always have a book with me, physical or digital. I love animals, I have cats, dogs, parrots, turtles and cockatiels, and I would give my life for them all without a second thought. Oh, I also love anything horror related with passion and bake, most of the time I don't even eat, I just bake and give it to people because I love it when they say they like what I made.
Thank you so much for requesting a matchup! I hope you like it! (And I have a turtle too! His name is Turbo) <333

Tolkien;
Thranduil:
Tumblr media
🦌 You met Thranduil with the Company, the Elf King was immediately awestruck, he had never really seen anyone quite like you, like an deity; instead of throwing you in a cell, he went and asked your questions
🦌 The questions about your reasons of being with the Dwarves slowly bubbled into asking you about your hobbies and interests; even though you were a bit wary of the King, you told him that you were a huge baking fan and loved to dance and listen to music
🦌 This interested the King, he was almost tempted to ask you to ditch the Company and throw a ball, he wanted the chance to ask you to dance; but before he had the chance to say or do anything, the next morning you and the Company were gone
🦌 You saw Thranduil again during the battle, helping him with the orcs came a bit too close, you and the Elf King fought side by side, back to back; together you were unstoppable
🦌 In the end of the battle, when all orcs were dead and gone, Thranduil asked if you wanted to stay with him in his kingdom, and of course, you said yes; only then did Thranduil told you about his love for you, and only a few weeks later did you become a ruler beside him
---
Harry Potter;
Lucius Malfoy:
Tumblr media
🐍 You met Lucius back in Hogwarts, being in the same year and house as him, you did interact with the young man, but his ideals soft of spooked you; but that didn't stop you from being civil with him, though you were a Slytherin, you were kind to all and didn't believe in all the pure blood stuff
🐍 Lucius on the other hand, disliked you to a point, but by the end of the fifth year, he almost seemed to change, but that all seemed to crash down after he was arranged to marry Narcissa; he went back to being cold and cruel, and then you didn't see him for another ten or more years
🐍 As the new DADA professor, you ran into Lucius when he came to the school to talk to Dumbledore, and you were shocked; you froze actually, greeting each other awkwardly as your minds raced with unknown and mixed forgotten feelings, (you hadn't gotten over him)
🐍 When you saw Lucius again, he came to your class during your break, he asked about his son and how he was doing until the conversation went to what the two of you have done since your days at Hogwarts; it was... Nice, sort of, and you could almost see that sweet old Lucius with every gray glint in his eyes
🐍 That was when he said he got divorced a couple of years ago, or well, Narcissa left him, sharing custody of Draco, and Lucius wanted to let you know about the feelings he felt for you that he pushed away during your school days; you both didn't want to speed through any relationship, so day by day you both allowed yourselves to get closer, and really, everything went perfectly (until Voldy came back)
---
Marvel;
Erik Killmonger:
Tumblr media
🔪 You were partners with Everett, staying back with him in Wakanda to help the Queen, Princess Shuri, and T'Challa; but, you had a secret that not even Everett knows about
🔪 You used to know Erik, yeah, awkward... and he recognized you too, you never thought you'd see him again, after so many years; and even though Erik was a somewhat cold and calculating person, his old feelings for you resurfaced
🔪 He was panicking a bit actually, he had pushed himself for taking over Wakanda and avenging his father that when he saw you again, he sort of freaked out as his heart began to race and his mind ran with only thoughts of you; you were feeling the same, and you were going to do something about it
🔪 Sneaking away from M'Baku's people, T'Challa, the Queen, and Everett, you sneaked back into the kingdom, where you almost got skewered but Erik stopped his new royal guards; you both slid away for a more private conversation, where you both talked about what had happened, and you asked him if he'd stop trying to take over Wakanda, Erik seemed hesitant but agreed, (for you)
🔪 Erik surrendered, and you were happy that he wouldn't get killed, and since this was probably a big blow to his pride, you stayed with Erik as much as you could and made sure he was alright; he was grateful for you and grateful that T'Challa understood him as well (he loves the sunsets here when he watches them with you)
---
Star Wars;
Anakin Skywalker:
Tumblr media
✨ You met Anakin when you were a Jedi and he was still a Padawan, being friends with Obi-Wan, you were introduced to Anakin; immediately when Anakin saw you, he was like, "Wow, look at those dimples," and you were like, "Wow, can't wait until he's a Jedi and he grows out that hair,"
✨ You were sent on a lot of mission with Anakin and Obi-Wan, during that mission you were sure to protect Anakin as much as you could when you saw him struggling, (which was hardly ever); Anakin did the same, also feeling a need to protect you, (which you also hardly needed)
✨ After one particular mission, you confessed to Anakin that you had feelings for him, and good thing for you, he felt the same; and that's when you and Anakin began courting/dating
✨ When you two weren't busy, you and Anakin would walk about whatever planet you were on, looking at the nature while you spoke about animals, books, music, and food; most of the time you'd joke around and play childish games together
✨ You knew you truly loved him when he saved you from Palpatine, knowing that the man was tricking him about you; after the huge battle and feeling thankful that most Jedis found a way to escape, Anakin found a small hut to call home with you, and as a promise of his everlasting love, he bought you a necklace

hey lovely ! thank you so much for the request <3 i hope you enjoy ! also omg we can be blind besties- my prescription is awful too ;-;
from the mcu i match you with;
thor odinson !
Tumblr media
underrated king !! i feel like y’all would balance each other out a lot <3
- he is your #1 supporter !!! like definitely cherishes anything you give him and if you bring him around your house he’s definitely trying to befriend all of your animals
- he’s an adventurer (obvi) so he’s always looking for something to do and because he still isn’t used to earth’s ways of life he’s always wanting to bring you with him. he doesn’t push you into anything you’re uncomfortable with but wants you to be a part of his life as much as you’re willing
- i don’t think he’d be the type to get comfortable with a good book- but he’d definitely keep you company while you do !
from the marauders i match you with;
sirius black !
Tumblr media
ugh they’re so abhshsxhidhehd i love sirius ! and i feel like it fits (my justification for everything tbh) <3
- love language is absolutely touch and quality time. loves to sit by a fire with you in his arms just talking or reading or sleeping- anything really
- loves seeing you dance and listen to music- definitely tries to join in but they’re not quite as talented. tries anything you’re into- books, music, baking, art
- i don’t think sirius is a horror movie fan- definitely the type to have to hold a pillow over his face every time there’s a jump scare, but continues to watch them with you because you like them.

i am a fish inside a birdcage(my brother always sings me songs)
omg guys i wrote something
this started as a ventfic and eventually became 2k12!mikey and leo bonding DBKSBD
i love them your honor
tws: anxiety, dissociation, transphobia, su1cide, death, a kid gets kicked out
this is hurt/comfort i swear
Leo woke up suddenly, eyes wide and heart pouding erratically. She had no idea what was going on. Groaning, she dragged a hand over her face and tried to wake up, head still foggy despite her spiking heartrate.
"Today's a bad day, I suppose," she muttered as she slowly got out of bed, staring uncomprehendingly at the alarm clock next to her. It's flashing red numbers read 3:00 AM, three hours before she would usually wake up.
After staring at the number for some time and willing it to change, she gave up, realizing 3:01 AM was the best she was gonna get. Extra time to meditate? Extra time to meditate, she immediately decided, and slowly started her regular breathing exercises, automatically adjusting to her normal position.
While her siblings often ended up almost immediately in the mindscape, she loved to wait a few moments in the soft darkness behind her eyes, drinking up the peace while she had it. Her heartrate spiked again, and she groaned, her focus interrupted. Softly growling, so as not to wake up her siblings, she tried once more to get into the mindscape, but she just couldn't focus.
Leo gave up, sighing as her hyperactive body refused to listen to her tired brain. It was exhausting, constantly having her body fight itself, but everyone dealed with it, anyways. Whatever.
At least her soul was disconnected from her body now, just the way she liked it. No more anxiety for her. Quickly utilizing her constant exhaustion so that it'd seem like she just woke up to any outsiders, she walked to the kitchen, careful not to make noise. She was a ninja, after all.
Ohhhh no. The fridge. The enemy of night-time snacks. The normally peaceful turtle glared balefully at the creaky door hinges of the fridge, plotting on how to open it without waking any of her stupidly-light sleeping family up. Sighing, she decided it wasn't worth the trouble, not with her nerves already frayed. She sadly poured herself a glass of water and drank it to ease the nervous rock in the pit of her stomach.
Suddenly, she heard the telltale squeak of shoes against the floor and spun around, her current anxiety making her unable to think straight and ninja properly. She was faced with the sight of Mikey, holding up his hands nonthreateningly.
"Hey, it's just me, dude," he drawled softly, a look of intuitive curiosity on his face. Leo suspected he somehow already knew she was in a mood, which was weird but she supposed that was just Mikey.
"Hey, Mikey," she whispered, her voice slowly failing her. Ohhhh no, I'm going into that 'not talking' feeling, aren't I? She cleared her throat, trying to stop it from happening. She tried to ask Mikey why he was awake, but her brain stopped her, telling her, no no no, do NOT open your mouth, shhhhhh.
"You okay, dude?" he asked concernedly, and her chest constricted even more at the title, if that was possible. She'd never tried telling her siblings that she was…trans, not after that one kid she'd befriended. Oliver. He came out and got kicked out, died a week later from malnutrition, no matter how hard Leo had tried to keep him from dying.
He gave up.
Look, sure, Donnie had come out as nonbinary and everyone had accepted it, but he still went by 'he'. They just had another pronoun, there wasn't a complete opposite change. And besides, Leo was Leo, the perfect kid, the golden child, the leader. She couldn't just be trans.
Whatever. She'd zoned out, which was a weird feeling when she couldn't feel anything. Thankfully, it'd only been a few seconds, and Mikey was still waiting for her to respond expectantly, and oh Jupiter now she had to figure out how to get her mouth to work. Inwardly growling, she used the strings to open her mouth and forced out, "Yes, little brother, I'm completely fine. Are you ok? You're up very early."
Mikey shrugged and looked sad, immediately activating her body's older sister senses. "Had a nightmare," he mumbled, and she used her arm to gesture to the seat next to her, her expression softening, for once in tune with her soul.
He sat, and she guided her arm to be around him, trying not to break down at the sudden overwhelming sense of BAD she felt from the touch. Inwardly, she snapped at her brain, telling it to shut up so she could comfort her brother.
"What was it about?" she asked, trying to bring herself back to the real world without getting too close to the ground. It came out blunter than she intended, and she winced, but Mikey didn't seem offended.
"I…I thought I lost you. You know, that time you were in a coma? I thought you'd never wake up," he mumbled, clearly barely keeping his tears at bay. "A-and…." He burst into sobs, unable to say much more as he wailed into his older sister's chest.
She patted his head gently, her heart breaking in her body even as her soul watched, unresponsive. Softly, her body hummed lullabies to him, occasionally whispering, "I'm here."
And by the end of it, she realized, she actually was.

Hi!! Can I please have a Percy Jackson, Demon Slayer and Genshin Impact romantic matchup?? (and forgive me if I make a mistake in the writing, I'm not fluent in english yet♡)
I'm pansexual and genderfluid, that uses all the pronouns.
I'm a brazilian, my house is Slytherin (but I have LOTS of Ravenclaw qualities), my sign is Leo and MBTI is INTJ. I have tan skin, dimples, brown eyes, straight black hair that goes below my waist and bangs. About my body, I think what stands out the most are the really thick thighs and the hands and feet that are really small. I wear glasses (I have astigmatism and myopia, my grade is VERY high); where i live is SO hot but i really like to wear sweats and pants so sometimes it's kind of hard but i think i wear any kind of clothes? I like to experiment with new styles and I really want to dye my hair but I didn't have the opportunity; I'm absolutely addicted to wearing necklaces, bracelets and especially rings, I'm always wearing several.
I have a quiet, observant, sarcastic and motherly personality, although from a distance it seems that I will be rude to you, I will actually be very calm and give you soft smiles. I can get stressed out easily but I don't show anything but glare, and above all I NEVER raise my voice, even in a fight the only thing I'm going to do is keep my voice calm with a firm, authoritative tone. I LOVE protecting and caring for people and listening to them talk about what they like, I always give them my FULLY attention. My love language is 100% touch, I am always touching the people I like and care about. Another thing is that I'm not a submissive person in a relationship, like no, at all and i absolutely hate going into water, like, sea, pools, lake, I don't know how to swim and I panic.
I'm completely in love with all kinds of art, especially dancing (I'm ALWAYS dancing while listening to music, which is pretty much all day long) and drawing/painting (sometimes I end up doing a whole drawing and not even realize it). I love reading and I always have a book with me, physical or digital. I love animals, I have cats, dogs, parrots, turtles and cockatiels, and I would give my life for them all without a second thought. Oh, I also love anything horror related with passion and bake, most of the time I don't even eat, I just bake and give it to people because I love it when they say they like what I made.
Hi Anon! Thank you for your request! Your english is very good! I hope you like your matchup!
In Percy Jackson, I match you with...
Tumblr media
You and Annabeth are so similar! You're both smart, observant, and sarcastic, but you care deeply about those that matter to you.
Understands getting stressed better than most people. She has a lot of responsibilities, both externally and internally enforced, so she can see when you're getting stressed straight away.
A complete hypocrite when it comes to giving advice on how to not get stressed. Annabeth knows a lot of destressing methods, as well as how to prevent stress and she'll do her best to make sure you don't get too stressed.
Meanwhile, her own stress is growing by the day...
If you show her the same care she shows you, she will feel so honoured. She didn't have a great relationship with her family so having someone show her true care means a lot to her.
Annabeth would love reading with you. She's a fan of reading different things and then swapping once you're both finished so you can talk about your favourite parts at the end.
In Demon Slayer, I match you with...
Tumblr media
Despite what you may think, Tanjiro loves your sarcasm! He's a people pleaser through and through so he likes that you often speak his mind about things that he would be too kind to say.
Loves your cooking! He isn't picky about what he likes or doesn't like so anything you give him will be appreciated.
I think Tanjiro would enjoy drawing or painting with you. He's not a master artist but he's not too bad either.
You're his favourite thing to draw or paint so expect him to look at you a lot while you're doing your own thing. He has to make sure he captures your likeness as best as he can.
Loves giving you hugs. I think Tanjiro's love language is also physical touch so he's more than happy to give you all the affection you need, whenever you need it.
Super supportive of you whenever you need to go near water. He'd be more than happy to teach you how to swim or, if water's still not your thing, he's also happy to just sit with you by the water while the others splash around.
In Genshin Impact, I match you with...
Tumblr media
You and Nilou are art buddies! She's a super creative person so you'd get along well in that regard.
She loves dancing with you! It's her main hobby, and the fact that you enjoy dancing as well means a lot to her. She gets to share her favourite thing with her favourite person!
I see Nilou as someone who likes animals as well. Whenever you're out and about and you come across an animal, she's more than happy to stop and say hello to it with you.
Greatly appreciates your calm nature. As a creative person in Sumeru city, she has to deal with a lot of negativity from the people in the Academia. Your caring nature is a nice breath of fresh air.
Would help you dye your hair! However, I think Nilou would go a bit overboard with the dye and make crazy patterns in all different colours. So if you're up for having rainbow hair, she's the person to go to!

Hi!! Can I please have a romantic matchup?? (and forgive me if I make a mistake in the writing, I'm not fluent in english yet♡)

I match you with...
Jihyun!
All right, so you're the kind of person who is very forthcoming with what you feel. You don't want to insult other people in a fight, no, you would take the path that allows you to say what needs to be said without insulting other people. Sometimes, people need to know that they're doing the wrong thing and you want them to know that they can't do that. They should be ashamed of themselves. It's good to stand up for things when you know something is wrong.
That's why the perfect match for you is surprisingly Jihyun. It might seem counterintuitive to put somebody who is so strong and confident with him when he is still learning how to use his voice first and foremost. But, having somebody who is confident gives him the strength to look in the mirror and realize that he needs to work harder on himself so he can feel the way he did before his insecurities took control.
It's inspirational, but not such in a way that it's pure idol worship. He learned his lesson the first time. That's never going to happen again. There is something poetic about you being able to pull him into a dance in the middle of the afternoon for no reason. Sometimes you just have to dance for no reason, and your sporadic and situational choice to live freely makes him feel alive.

busts down the door fuck it. off the cuff gender/sexualities headcanons for the rise boys/whoever else i decide. i havent fully considered these/written these out so it might be a hot mess have fun (its also 1 am this is your warning)
see leos a little Special. surprise trans leo is my fav thing ever so what I like to do is ambs (assigned male by splinter, he didnt know the cloacas were in different areas or to start squinting when leos shell got more concave. no i did not know those facts before surprise trans madness/my egg doc i made a whole cloth new however the fuck you say it reproductive system for this fucking turtle so he and his bunny boyfriend could have kids and i could torture him with sliders being oviparous. thank you less-depresso-more-expresso for your leo egg post in december it changed me fundamentally) -> oh . those are eggs. ok *whistling sound as he continues w his life* -> wait gender is a construct. maybe this is a gift -> genderfluidity slaps the kid in the face when theyre abt 17. also hes gay cause it feels right. so does some form of demisexual or romantic but i have a lot of opinions on how his dating life would go and how it would impact his character (rhinocio gets it if u know them. were besties u see) so i think that woudnt hit until more like 18 or smth like that maybe idk
in much more basic terms. genderfluid gay leo ftw we love a trans leo in this house. this goes whether or not you believe in Egg this kid is not cis mark my goddamn words
raph has always screamed she/he to me as she has to most people. im feeling bi. double bi also feels both very right and very funny his siblings would have a ball w that
if mikey doesnt use neopronouns whats the point. gender is a game and mikey is winning. sexuality is also a game and mikey is Still winning. goes w pan but literally would nebulously date anyone as long as they seemed cool and he liked them well enough. they and leo are shaking hands except leo is hoarding like she, he, they, and maybe a couple other neopronouns meanwhile mikey is like im everything all at once fight me abt it. so nonbinary in the everything kind of way. maybe. i have no idea what the name for this is but i know exactly the kind of vibe im talking abt
and ofc donnie is in the absolute opposite direction. he/they, more nonbinary than anything else. rise apritello star lastknownstatus-alive has allured me with aroflux donnie and considering i know like two things abt the aro and ace label existence im absolutely listening. definitely think hes on that spectrum though, it just fits. think hed look at the sexuality thing and go ...none of these are right. and then forgo it entirely. their sexuality is whoever is hot and whoever they fall in love with die abt it
this is where i say that trans man draxum means everything to me and also that man simply isnt straight nor is he allistic (i mean allo as in like hes definitely on the ace/aro spectrum and i didnt realize until rereading a while later but he is also not allistic tbf)
also splinter is bi i rest my case. pretty normal gender on that rat though, even with the gnc everything
april is so . that gender is so everything. hoarding genders like mikey but less so and also less aggressively. less everything all at once and more somethings sometimes and sometimes not other things. shes a solid inbetween of mikey and leo. my brain clocked bi but i honestly dont know why. help i dont know that many names and also i havent been in love in 4 years idk how the sexuality half of this works
also as a disclaimer we as a system (not in our bio bc Fear) identify as genderfluid (not that i know what the flag looks like . look i keep forgetting to look it up ok) but thats because its easier. a lot of us are sort of genderfluid or use multiple pronouns but remembering those gender experiences is HARD . accordingly any discussion of gender and the experience might be totally fucked bc were only so many genders bc there are so many people in this brain. ok im getting off the stepladder w my megaphone where i make separate points now onto casey
my baby my little guy. think the fam wouldve given him the opportunity to explore that stuff as much as he could in the apocalypse. im feeling he/it. thinks gender is a construct. too busy to find a label. would probably like bigender or genderfluid. kind of like mikey, technically works w pan but would date literally whoever whenever wherever as long as there was a preexisting relationship. dont tell him but hes probably demiromantic
and casey sr!!! my girl my lady! i could go either cis or transgirl on her, or even she/they or she/they/he, she does whatever she wants any day of the week. absolutely a lesbian though thats undisputed. also feeling demiro And demiace
this is your last warning that i sussed half of these out based on vibes Right Now. except for leo theyre on my mind 24/7. and mikey mikey felt patently obvious. same for donnie but only gender wise
ok im done now prommy. may or may not fuck around and make a background + oh yeah! thats me!! style fic for these guys if i feel like it. probably wont come out during pride but hey. you dont stop being gay when june ends yk. either way tada ill come back if i decide i was talking bullshit and correct myself later. bc i usually decide i was talking bullshit eventually lmao. probably partially cause im like 18 its a natural side effect of growth occuring at a faster rate due to my younger age. anyways this has been your twice annually actually long and headcanons/fun filled luna post. ill see you in like, october probably, unless i get ballsy, see you then either way lmao

Here we go its time for:
RotTMNT LGBT headcanons!
Leo
I mean this guy is fruity af
So we all know he's gay
And then I think he's binary trans (he/him)
Donnie
Nonbinary straight lesbian (bc I couldn't decide if he was straight or lesbian lmao)
I say straight lesbian bc they're WLW but also very masculine presenting always, so he's both WLW and MLW
Auti! Gender!
He/they
Also! Loveless! Bc I am and I say so! Specifically loveless as in anattractional, and its bc of their autism
Mikey
Nonbinary as well! Uses the genderfluid label, but idk if he actually 100% knows. He's multigender somehow for sure
SUPER gnc like there is no way of telling what gender they're feeling unless they tell you directly
Uses any pronouns (including whatever neos!)
Sometimes Leo will get very creative making up neos to use, and they'll both just sit and throw ideas at each other it's great
Pan and polyam! No real preference and honestly might be aspec/demi?
Raph
Aroace, but he doesn't really use labels much. The most he'll use is aspec
Nonbinary? Idk how to describe this exactly, but he's just raph. he just vibes.
He/xe (I saw this hc somewhere and idk who came up with it but I am marrying you right now it's perfect)
Autigender as well!
April
Lesbian ofc
Her and Donnie are lesbian duo
She/her but honestly does not care very much
Casey (Jr)
Literally the same as Leo just less fruity
Aka trans gay guy
Uses he/they tho! But like only once he's out of the apocalypse he didn't really think about it before
Bonus - Splinter
As far as any of them know he's just cishet
He could be bi though? Maybe?
He's not very good with pronouns n shit, he mostly calls the turtles he/him exclusively. He was very good with Leo being trans tho!
