rottmnt tickle head cannons? What is your favorite tickle trope for Rise? (As in who is your favorite Lee/ler scenario)
🐢Rottmnt Tkl Headcanons♡
~Oooooh my Rise hcs! Sorry I've been so dead recently, school is kicking my ass this semester (⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙). I'll do character hcs first, and the trope thing at the end. Much longer than my others for sure. I need to do more for these skrunkles tbh. Slight Rise spoilers if you squint. Sorry this took 8,000 years, and thank you for requesting!~

General:
We can all agree that this big ol’ teddy bear loves tickles, right?
Be it a fluffy comfort or destroying a bratty brother, Big Raphie is up for it.
Taking this into account, he feels like a switch.
Might admit he likes it around the right person, though his brothers have known for years.
He has to really trust someone to tell them.
Doesn't wanna seem like he's unfit to protect his brothers. As you can probably guess, he gets lovingly ejected from that mindset when people find out.
Lee:
If he gets a lee mood, he tries to hide it and fails miserably.
Big boy will have the dopiest grin around his playful brothers, which he does a horrible job at hiding.
Can't seem to focus on his advice-giving or training. It doesn't take long for his brothers to notice.
Worst spot is his underarms. You get him there and he'll give every dog near a NYC sewer grate a headache.
Melt spots are his palms and beneath his chin. Gentle scratches on either surface melt him into a happy, giggly puddle.
Likes being tickled by anyone really close to him. He's just gotta be in the right mood for it. April kills him most often.
Amazing thing to do to him is gentle melt-spot attention to help him relax. Toss in some reassurances and praise while you're at it. He'll be in a blissful daze for hours.
Ler:
Mostly a revenge-ler, but he can also randomly get ler moods.
He loves the Tickle Monster persona, always uses it on his brothers when they're being shitheads.
A softer ler, though he isn't afraid to wreck someone if they refuse to quit (or ask).
When he's being nice, soft scribbles, flurries of pokes, and side squeezes.
“Cootchie-coo, ya cutie!”
When he's not-so-nice, you get one or two giant, inescapable tickle-claws attacking you, big squeezes and occasionally neck nibbles if he's feeling evil.
Mikey, Leo and April get it most often, though each for different reasons.
Mikey straight up asks, and big bro is more than happy to provide. Boy loves a willing lee.
Leo’s always a shit, and some Raphie tickles work wonders on taking him down a peg.
April either offers to let him tickle her as a stress/mood reliever or engages a tickle fight.
He gives the best aftercare ever (⁠*⁠˘⁠︶⁠˘⁠*⁠)⁠。⁠♡. Cuddles, back rubs, maybe a nap in his cozy lap if you're comfortable with it. Potential hot chocolate if you're patient.
🗡️Leo✨
Tumblr media
General:
Sassy man gives off ler-leaning switch.
Always in the mood to lovingly murder his brothers’ lungs, but occasionally likes to forget his name.
This playful goof definitely likes tickling, though he refuses to admit it. He needs to protect his coolness, afterall.
Lee:
When the lee mood hits, everyone in the house is immediately notified. Not directly, of course, but it's pretty obvious that something's up.
WAY more one-liners and flippy jokes than normal. Awkward finger guns at the end of jokes, little prods and pokes for no reason, just general annoyance.
In his mind, he'll either annoy them into wrecking him, or they'll pick up on it and help. Either way, he gets tickled.
If anyone tickles him, it's usually either Raph or Mikey. Raph gets tired of his shit the quickest, and Mikey is good at reading people.
Worst spots are his thighs and feet. Get him there, and there's no way he'll be able to even think about sassing anyone through his laughter.
Melt spots are his forearms. After a long day of patrolling the city and being awesome, some light traces there will make him a very happy turtle.
Ler:
Okay but the SASS
He's such a teasy bastard of a ler. Will tease and coo at his lee until they're a flustered, blushy mess. Then he'll call ‘em cute one more time, just because he can.
He frequently gets ler moods, but those are way easier to take care of than their opposite.
Most of the time, his lee will be Mikey or Donnie. His bubbly brother is almost always in the mood for a good tickle “fight,” and Donnie needs to relax sometimes.
Has a bit of a rough style, but does get softer moods sometimes.
During regular moods, he loves to dig into sides and bellies, attack death spots and blow raspberries to hear a lee squeal.
On softer occasions, he'll gently skitter his fingers along death spots, switching places whenever the giggling gets too loud. Maybe some tickly kisses if you're lucky
His aftercare typically consists of cuddling during a Jupiter Jim movie, snacks, and gentle praises. Makes sure his victims are smiling, even when his fingers aren't wiggling.
🎨Mikey☀️
Tumblr media
General:
Sunshine boy loves tickling, both as a bonding activity and a coping method.
He's a lee-leaning switch for sure. Ready to get his ass handed to him, but open to helping out his brothers’ lee moods or cheering someone up.
Has magical “can say the t-word at any time” powers. You know he abuses the absolute heck out of said powers, too.
Lee:
Lee moods are no rare thing for this boyo.
Gets them very frequently, though he's actually able to ask for help when he needs it.
Either accidentally or on purpose, he's able to fluster his ler. He'll ask for more, one specific spot, tell them that they're doing an awesome job, ect.
When he gets super stressed, some cheer-up/calm-down tickles are much appreciated (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)
A massive squirmer, he can't help it. Make sure to pin or hold him, or you might get an elbow to the nose (accidentally, of course; he'd never stop apologizing).
Worst spots are his knees and neck. Either spot gets him screeching, though he isn't likely to try and stop you.
Melt spot is his palms. With his mildly-terrifying mystic magic, some feather-light touches can be reassuring. Just make sure to ask first.
Everyone kinda rotates through wrecking him, though Raph and Donnie kinda dominate the field.
Either because they catch on/get annoyed the quickest or something else, he's usually found with them.
Ler:
Surprisingly formidable ler
Don't let his cinnamon-roll vibe fool you: this man can and will wreck your shit.
Tweaks his style a bit for each person. Super observant and tailors how and what he does to each lee.
Compliment-teases are his specialty. He'll have you blushing in 5 seconds flat.
“Aww, I love your blush! It's so bright and cute, just like you!”
“This squishy belly is just so ticklish, isn't it? Here I thought it was just adorable!”
“Was that a snort? No, don't hide it! Those are the best!”
His ler moods are a bit rarer, but they are absolutely something to fear (or enjoy while they last (⁠◡⁠ ⁠ω⁠ ⁠◡⁠)).
Super sweet aftercare. You can't escape cuddling (unless you can't handle the touch, he'll understand). Usually some hand-baked treats as well, depending on what he has hidden from his brothers.
General:
🛠️Donnie👾
Tumblr media
He's a ler-leaning switch, but that's mainly because he's not always open for being touched.
He gets lee moods, but they're rarer. People have to ask before they try anything.
Even with ler moods, not always open to get somebody.
Communication with this boy is key.
Lee:
It takes a good combination of good day + not overstimulated + in a touchy mood, but he does get lee moods.
Tries to hide and ignore them, but it never works out. Either Shelldon finds him and helps, or one of his brothers stumbles across the mood.
If he’s super overwhelmed with a project and okay with touch, some light tickles are perfect for bringing him back to Earth.
Little hand flaps and kicks when you get him. Happy stims galore! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
Worst spot is his soft shell, though armpits are a close second. Loud, bright and occasionally hysterical reactions.
Melt spots are his belly plastron and tops of his thighs. Gentle traces and scratches on either spot leave him a stimmy, giggly puddle.
Most of the time, it’ll be Leo who tickles him. It’s usually for help calming down, though April isn’t far behind.
Will never admit it, but he does enjoy both sides of tickling.
Ler:
You know this mans uses his shell attachments to wreck people.
Those metal claws? Yeah, good luck- =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
Very dramatic commentary on his lee’s reactions. His inner theater kid loves to shine. Either that, or complete monotone. There’s no in-between, and he’s never offered an explanation.
“Oh my, you’re laughing rather hard, my dear gigglebug!”
“Judging by this raucous laughter, I’d say this is your worst spot.”
“Oh, it tickles? Really badly? How unfortunate for you…”
Has absolutely made tickle-specific gadgets and I will die on this hill.
Remember the feather staff feature from the Shredder episode? He didn’t just have that for no reason.
Usually wrecks Mikey and/or Leo. They’re both very talented at provoking him, either on purpose or by accident.
His aftercare depends on his mood. If he’s cool with touch, he’ll cuddle and watch a movie with you. If not, you’ll usually get some pats from his claw and snuggles from Shelldon (yes lil’ dude is fine gimme a break)
📹April⚾
Tumblr media
General:
Hmmmm toughie, but I’d say ler-leaning switch. Not all that ticklish, but willing to help if one of her brothers is in a bad ler mood.
She just kinda prefers to do the tickling most of the time, unless it’s for her bros.
Extremely confident, bears the magic power of saying the t-word whenever she pleases. You know she puts it to good use, too.
Being the sister of the family, she’s gotta put her bros in their places. Why not use tickling?
Lee:
While it’s not often, she’ll let Big Raphie tickle her if he needs to.
Sometimes that boy just needs someone to reassure him that he’s not hurting them while giggling their brains out.
She’s pretty good at sitting still, amazing poker face. Could easily dominate in the Arms Up game.
As I said before, not super ticklish. Serves her well in tickle fights (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)
Only her ribs really get her laughing, but other than that it’s bubbly, pitchy giggles.
Doesn’t really have a melt spot, though if she had to choose a favorite, it’d be her belly.
Ler:
VERY very teasy. Easily-flustered lees be warned (˘ ˘ ˘)
Loves seeing her lee blush and sputter, finds it endlessly adorable.
“What? Oh, it tickles? Good, thought I might’ve been going too easy on ya!”
“Oooo, someone’s blushin’! How cute~”
“Wonder what would happen if I went for your worst spot… Only one way to find out!”
Giggles along with her lee. They’re adorable—how could she not?
As big sis, it’s her job to keep her brothers in line. Why not use tickling?
Frequently gives Raph calm-down/confidence-boosting tickles. Boy’s too stressed, in her opinion.
After him, it’s helping Donnie relax or pry him away from a project. Leo also needs to be taken down a peg every once in a while.
Super snuggly aftercare. Back rubs, praises and even some teases for the road, if ya catch my drift~
🔥Cassandra🏒
Tumblr media
General:
I’m feeling ler on this one. She doesn’t seem like she’d enjoy being tickled too much, though she definitely doesn’t mind wrecking others.
Before the Hamato fam stepped in, she didn’t really have much experience in the tickly field.
Maybe one of her foot-face mentors, but other than that, nada.
That absolutely changes when she joins the bros.
Ler:
Ready to vanquish any “enemy” lee mood to help her friends out.
Rougher style normally, though she can be convinced to dial it back. You wanna forget your name? She’s your gal.
Takes her role sorta seriously, though she can be playful. Just depends on her mood.
If she does tease, it’s more observational than anything.
She just kinda says flustering stuff without meaning to.
“Well, no duh it tickles. That’s the whole point!”
“Not there? You asked me to tickle you, but scold me the moment I get somewhere? I don’t think so!”
Attacks everyone pretty evenly, but she does have a preference for April and Raph. They’re the most fun to take down, in her opinion.
Cass respects boundaries, of course. You genuinely want her to stop and she’ll be off you in seconds.
Doesn’t grasp the concept of aftercare quite yet. Once you can breathe, she’ll start asking for feedback.
“How was that? Did it really tickle? Details, giggler, details!”
If specifically requested, though, she does give a mean back-rub and/or massage. If your back or neck is ticklish, though, you’re gonna have a whole new problem~ ( ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )
💮Splinter🐀
Tumblr media
General:
Splints has ler energy, ya know?
Like April, not super ticklish. He isn’t the biggest fan of being tickled, but if it’s with very specific people, he’ll tolerate it.
Doesn’t interact tickle-wise very often, but he does have his moments.
Is very aware that his children love it and tries to connect with them in that way sometimes.
Ler:
With his ninja skills and small size, he can take down even the brattiest of lees in seconds.
You see his tail? Yeah, absolutely uses it to help wreck his victims.
Very playful, goofy ler. Laughs along with his lee, makes little comments on their reactions.
“Oh my, little one. I never would have thought you’d be so sensitive!”
“Heheh, what a cute laugh! You really should let me hear it more often!”
When he notices any of his kids are down in the dumps, he sneaks in a few pokes and scritches with his tail.
If that doesn’t work, they get the full-Splints treatment. Reassuring teases, rougher tickles and his undivided attention.
He’ll bug Draxum when he feels like it, which is more funny than anything.
Reducing the broody goat-man to a giggling, cursing mess is therapeutic for him ( ͡º ꒳ ͡º)
His aftercare is light and sweet. Head pats, reassurances, and a small cookie break for a nice close.
🌱Baron Draxum🐐
Tumblr media
General:
Before the turtles, had little to no idea what tickling was about.
Sure, he knew that people laughed when it happened, but he couldn’t tell what was so great about it. It was just touch and laughter - no big deal.
Once the teetles got ahold of him, though? Yeah, that view changed pretty quick.
Turns out he’s a switch. Likes “destroying his nuisances” with the harmless technique, but doesn’t mind it being used on him.
Will never admit the latter, though.
Lee:
A LOT more ticklish than one would imagine. Like a few squeezes will leave him giggling and blushing like there’s no tomorrow.
He’s pretty good at hiding his lee moods, though they definitely aren’t repressible. Draxy feels them, but can keep others in the dark.
If anyone’s gonna notice, it’ll be Lou (Splinter). He knows the man the best, thanks to Mikey’s whole “fatherly-bonding” push.
Splints will help, though he’ll tease the shit out of the Baron the entire time.
While he’ll never tell the rat man, he enjoys the silly exchanges.
Worst spots are his hips and shoulder blades. Either place will have him stuck in a snorty, rumbling bout of hysterics.
Melt spots are his palms. He adores gentle traces there, lets him know somebody cares.
Ler:
Absolutely uses his mystic powers to help him.
Those vines? Yeah, restraints and tickle tools for days
Very smug ler, likes to tease his lees until they’re flustered messes. It’s done out of love, though, so can you blame him?
“This must be torturous, huh? The vines holding you still, my fingers on your worst spots… However, I don’t think I’ve heard you say stop…”
Usually tickles the teens if they’re annoying him, but also goes after Lou every so often.
He knows there’ll be repercussions, but life’s no fun without a little risk.
Huginn and Muninn are next in line. Surprising no one, they’re and attention whores. Draxy makes sure they get their fills.
Not the best with aftercare, but he tries. Back rubs and light praises while you catch your breath. Maybe some of his “confectionary wonders” if you’re brave enough.
*✧⁠◍Favorite Trope & Lee/Ler Pairing◍✧⁠*
Okay, so there’s no way I can pick a single favorite pairing. I love them all too much! I can, however, name my top 3.
lee!Raph, ler!April is definitely up there. I adore the big-siblings energy in their fics, and they just bond so well!
Pretty much anything with lee!Donnie in it. I love seeing the smarty-pants get got ( •̀ ᵕ •́ )
lee!Draxum and ler!Splinter. Okay, hear me out, but I love redemption arcs and enemies to friends/lovers/co-parents or whatever you wanna call what they have going on. They’re fun and I like fun.
For my favorite trope, I’m gonna have to go with cheer-up tickles, or more specifically, some stop-stressing-tf-out tickles. It’s always so fun to read how people would cheer up the boys, as well as write some super duper, totally not self-indulgent fics like that for myself. Maybe one day they’ll see the light, but don't count on it lol (¬////¬)

I’ve been thinking way too much about Peepaw Leo and Casey, so I decided to write a drabble where future Leo also got sent back in time with Casey, but the Leo’s are homies because it’s been a while since everything went down :)
This is a fluff bomb and I’m not sorry ;)
Oh also, Leo = present day Leo, Leon = future Leo :)))
Disclaimer: This is a tickle fic so if you’re not into that please just scroll! :)
(As always, everything is 100% platonic and just meant to be family fluff!!!)
Warnings: None I believe lol
Word Count: 1,837
————————————————————————
That Brought Me Back
Casey had been sitting quietly in his room, reading a Jupiter Jim comic book that Leo had lent him earlier that day.
He had gotten so wrapped up in the storyline that nothing had pulled his attention away from it for a good half an hour, except for the sudden shriek that echoed throughout the tunnels of the sewers.
Casey jolted upright, grabbing his hockey stick and venturing out into the lair to find the source of the shriek, which was now sounding more like… laughter?
He continued forwards warily, keeping his hockey stick out in front of him until the laughter got louder and louder.
“LEHEO! STOHOP!”
Mikey?
Casey stepped foot into the main area of the lair that was dubbed ‘the hang-out spot’.
The scene that Casey witnessed before him wasn’t what he was expecting to see today, but now that he thought about it, he wasn’t really surprised.
Leo was sitting on top of Mikey’s shell, digging mercilessly into his youngest brother’s underarms as Mikey kicked his legs underneath him.
“LEHEO!” Mikey cried as Leo noticed the presence of another person in the room.
“Alright, alright,” Leo grinned, stepping off of Mikey and letting him recover.
“What’s up, Case?” Leo held out a hand for Mikey to take, pulling Mikey to his feet.
“Oh, I heard Mikey shriek and I just wanted to see what the fuss was about.” Casey chuckled, setting down his hockey stick against the wall.
“Oh yeah, he’s fine! Just sensitive-” Leo teased.
“Hey!”
Leo giggled and turned back to face Casey.
“What about you, huh? You ticklish?” Leo grinned mischievously.
Casey managed to hide his reaction, fully aware that no matter what he answered, Leo was going to test it out on him anyways.
“I don’t think so,” Casey shrugged, leaving Leo and Mikey both looking perplexed.
“You don’t think so?” Leo questioned, folding his arms over his plastron in disbelief.
“How could you not know?” Mikey scoffed, a little bit of his Dr. Delicate Touch side seeping through.
“I mean, I literally lived in an apocalypse, I guess I just never got tickled much.”
“Fair point.” Leo admitted.
“You know what we gotta do, man.” Mikey deadpanned before looking at Leo and smirking.
“Yep,” Casey didn’t even put up a fight and laid on the floor awkwardly in-between Leo and Mikey.
Leo and Mikey knelt down and gave him confused looks.
“Casey, my man, I will find a way to break you.” Leo tried to break the tension in the air.
“Okay.” Casey responded nonchalantly.
Mikey stared at him in awe at how he wasn’t getting all riled up at this point.
Even Donnie was more reactive than this.
Leo hovered his hands over Casey’s torso. Still no reaction.
“Are you gonna do it?” Casey questioned, a slight tone of annoyance in his voice.
He just wanted to get this over with.
“Okay, mister, well when you put it that way!” Leo shot back equally as annoyed.
His favorite part was the build-up where his brothers would start to giggle with anticipation before he even started, but clearly that wasn’t happening here.
Leo poked Casey in the stomach, yet the boy only laid there like nothing had even happened.
If anything he just looked bored.
“Lift up your arms.” Mikey demanded, his face scrunching with determination to get Casey to laugh.
“Whatever you want, Mikey,” Casey folded his arms behind his head as if he were relaxing, closing his eyes to add to the building disappointment of both of the turtles.
Mikey scratched away at Casey’s underarms, but still, nothing.
“Not even a smile?” Leo groaned as he attempted to squeeze Casey’s sides.
This kid wasn’t giving them anything whatsoever.
“Can I sit up now?” Casey asked, a smug look faintly painted on his face.
“Yeah, sure, whatever, dude.” Leo sat back and rolled his eyes. He wasn’t actually annoyed, just disappointed he didn’t have another person to torment whenever he felt like it.
Casey sat up in-between the turtles, both of them sitting there in silence as Casey propped himself up.
“Wow, you guys are in a bad mood.” Casey joked, looking over at Leo and studying his face. He was similar enough to Master Leonardo that could tell he was only being dramatic.
“Leo?” Casey poked the red-eared slider in the side, eliciting a small squeal from said turtle.
Casey’s eyes lit up at the sound and he looked over to Mikey, who couldn’t keep up the ‘upset’ front any longer and flashed a smile across his face.
Leo huffed and turned so that he wasn’t facing them.
Mikey rolled his eyes and gave Casey a look, quickly darting his eyes to Leo and back to Casey. He knew what Leo wanted.
Mikey quietly shifted himself, preparing himself to launch at his older brother as he gave Casey a look saying: ‘Watch this.’
“Cowabunga!” Mikey shouted and shot himself at Leo, tackling him over and getting right to the point.
“Mihikey! Dohohon’t!” Leo’s giggles immediately filled the once empty silence in the air.
Casey scooted over to the action, jumping in to help Mikey get revenge on Leo from earlier.
“CAHASEY!” Leo’s laughter became louder when Casey scratched his fingers along the side of his shell.
“What are you guys doing in here?” The older slider’s voice cut through his younger counterpart’s laughter.
Casey stopped torturing Leo abruptly, butterflies growing in his stomach as soon as he heard his sensei’s voice.
He might have been able to put on an act for the younger mutant turtles, but his sensei was a different case.
“We’re just having fun!” Mikey carried on with his ticklish onslaught on Leo, sending Leo into a fit of giggly laughter again.
Leon couldn’t help but smile at the scene in front of him.
He missed these moments with his brothers.
“MIHIKE! GEHET OFF!” Leo rolled over and threw Mikey off in the process.
“What? You scared of being embarrassed in front of Leon?” Mikey teased. Leo only stuck his tongue out at him buried his face in his arms.
“Oh that ship sailed a while ago.” Leon chuckled, “But I’ve also seen my fair share of little Junior here being embarrassed too.” He added, making Casey’s cheeks flush to a light pink.
“Casey told us he’s not ticklish.” Mikey rested his elbow on Leo’s back and propped up his head, “We even tried to get him but he didn’t even smile.” Mikey looked defeated.
Casey had turned to face the other way to avoid the turtles from pointing out his blushing.
Leon’s brows furrowed with confusion, Casey had always been a pretty sensitive kid…
The realization hit him almost instantly.
“Oh, he didn’t now, did he?” A devilish smile grew on Leon’s face as he turned to make eye-contact with his surrogate son.
Casey’s face had turned a shade of beet red as he began slowly inching away from the three turtles.
“Where are you going?” Leon smirked at Casey, lunging for him and grabbing his arm so that he couldn’t escape.
The teen couldn’t help the giggles bubbling up in his throat, desperately prying at his sensei’s hand in an attempt to get away.
Leon pulled Casey into his lap sideways, his hair a mess all over his face as he pleaded with Leon and pushed his hand away from him.
The one advantage Casey had was that Leon currently only had one arm, but he was still a hell of a lot weaker than the full grown mutant turtle man.
“You’re really not doing a good job of selling yourself to them here, Case.” Leo grinned down at Casey already going crazy in his lap.
Leon pulled his arm back and wiggled his fingers down at Casey, sending the boy into a fit of laughter as he once again attempted to block Leon’s hand.
“I haven’t even touched you yet!” Leon was amused with himself, finally slipping past Casey’s hands and drilling his fingertips gently into Casey’s stomach.
Casey’s laughter rang out and bounced off of the walls, all of them unable to help the smiles they wore at the sound Leon was eliciting from the usually quiet teen.
Leon skittered his hand around Casey’s torso, hitting a sweet spot on his ribs that sent him squealing.
Leo and Mikey felt betrayed by this.
“Dude! How did he do that earlier?” Leo was thoroughly impressed with Casey’s little performance he had put on only minutes before.
“It’s all in your head!” Leon responded as he continued digging his fingers into the crook of Casey’s neck, a stream of nasally giggles leaving Casey’s mouth, “It’s a tactic I taught him when he was younger, but we used tickling as a way to build up those skills.”
“That’s neat!” Mikey chimed in.
“So, what I’m hearing right now is that he wanted you to tickle him?” Leo questioned, sitting up straight, “Because his walls broke down the moment you brought it up.”
Leon looked from his younger self back to Casey squirming around in his lap, the pure childishness of it warming Leo’s heart.
This is what Casey should have always looked like.
Happy, not worried about an apocalyptic invasion, carefree, the list went on for miles.
“Maybe,” Leon shrugged, “I can’t say I blame him though.” He winked at the younger slider, bringing a small blush to the teen’s face.
He kept forgetting Leon knew all of his thoughts.
Leon chuckled and pulled his hand away from Casey, letting him breathe and calm down.
“Thahat was soho mean!” Casey whined, now pouting in Leon’s lap.
“Oh, that brought me back!” Leon scooped up Casey into a crushing hug, “You used to be so little, oh, and you were just the cutest thing!” Leon shook him around in his arms.
“Sensei!” Casey’s giggles were full of embarrassment as he pulled himself away from Leon’s hug, falling backwards and landing on his palms.
“I speak no lies!” Leon shrugged, laughing when Casey’s cheeks went pink again.
“Yeah, yeah, enough with the sappy stuff, grandpa-”
“Hey-”
Leo threw an arm around a very flustered Casey’s shoulders and pulled him backwards, “I told you I would find a way to break you! I just never said it would be this version of me!”
Casey rolled his eyes at Leo’s logic.
It still weirded him out how similar the two Leo’s acted, even though he knew they were the same person.
“Wait,” the wheels in Casey’s brain began to turn, “If he’s also you, wouldn’t that mean he has the same sensitive spots as you?” He looked up at Mikey, who immediately picked up what he was putting down.
Leo sat in silence before a grin took over his face.
“I like where your head is at, Case.” Leo craned his neck upwards to look at Leon, Casey following his movement.
Leon perked his head up to see three very mischievous looking teenagers staring him down.
“Okay, Peepaw,” Leo released Casey and cracked his knuckles for dramatic effect.
“Your turn.”

if prompts are still open, could i requests for 35 (“how did you know that?!”) with lee!leo ler!casey? maybe casey has some Important Intel abt future!leo and decides to see if it works on this younger version of his sensei?
The Student Becomes the Master
Summary: Casey Jones is faced with one of the most difficult challenges so far: getting Leo to listen to him.
Author's note: I re-watched the movie to get into a good Casey Jones headspace and then this happened. I kinda went off on the angst (which I haven't done in a while so yikes) but I hope you like it, anon!
Warnings: This fic contains tickling and some angst in the beginning, so proceed with that knowledge.
Word count: 1,813
35. "How did you know that?!"
Even after saving the world from a fate worse than death, they still didn't know what they were doing. They were safe, they were together, and the city was rebuilt. New York shone brightly with blinking traffic lights, technicolor signs, and the blurred lights of headlights zipping through the streets. Towering skyscrapers stood proudly once again, perhaps even grander than the ones that stood before. Everything was back to normal, more or less.
But under the city's surface, the heroes who saved the world were still fighting.
The continuous thwacks and thuds of Raph's punches could be heard throughout the lair, even though training had long since ended for everyone else. It had been several nights since Donnie's sleepless form last left his laboratory. Mikey occupied the TV room, watching Jupiter Jim on repeat. He still didn't do too well with complete silence these days. The Hamato brothers were usually very good at leaning on each other, but it was quiet nights like these that reminded everyone of the lasting impacts of the Krang invasion.
Then, of course, there was Leo. He stood in the kitchen, pouring another cup of scalding coffee into Splinter's "World's Best Dad" mug. Staving off the nightmares unfortunately meant forgoing sleep altogether. Sure, it wasn't sustainable, but it was something within his control. And he needed that right now.
"Sensei," came Casey's voice from where he stood, leaning against the kitchen doorway with his arms crossed against his chest.
Leo jumped, turning quickly to face him before immediately dropping his guard. "Oh, hey, Casey."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."
Leo puffed out a small laugh, setting his coffee down and putting on his best face. His have you even met me? face. "Scared? Puh-lease, it's just kinda weird having humans around. The only human we ever have down here is April and you can hear her coming from like, miles away."
Casey laughed at that, stepping a bit closer to the leader. The bags under his eyes were darker than they had been last Casey checked, but otherwise, Leo carried himself well. He looked more like the Leonardo that Casey had grown up with, which was simultaneously comforting and sad to see.
"How are you holding up?"
"I'm holding," Leo said with another chuckle, trying to both be honest and let some tension out of the room. "I can tell I'm going to have to talk to them soon. Mikey says we need to 'talk about our feelings,' " he placed air quotes around his best impression of his youngest brother.
"Yikes," Casey laughed, "But he's right. You guys went through a lot."
"I just hate seeing them all so..."
Casey placed a firm hand on Leo's shoulder and squeezed, as if trying to pull the negative energy right out of him. "Hey, at least these bad days are fewer and farther between, right?"
Leo nodded. One thing he admired about Casey was that he could spot the silver lining in any situation. For someone who's seen more despair and tragedy than any of them, it was a miracle that he would still persevere.
"I just wish things could go back to how they were before..."
"Before this whole situation?"
"Get outta my head, Jones."
There was no heat behind his words, which Casey smiled at. "You know you still need to take care of yourself too, right? I know you talk about how a leader needs to protect their own, and I know you worry about them, but you can't be a leader if you don't take care of yourself too."
Leo bit back a snarky response, never one to appreciate a random lecture about his self-care (or lack thereof). He leaned back on his palms and watched Casey for a long moment, the edges of his vision blurring slightly before he averted his gaze. "I know. It's not like I'm not trying. I just can't stop seeing them every time I close my eyes." The corners of his eyes prickled as he took a shaky breath. "I thought I was going to lose them all. And even though we made it, I just can't stop thinking about how close we came to... not making it."
Casey nodded solemnly, recalling the bright orange beams that pierced through Michelangelo in his final moments. He remembered Leonardo running off into battle before an explosion of red light enveloped him. He saw them often.
"I am scared. I'm scared that next time I won't be able to save them. And they're hurting, obviously. Raph won't stop beating himself up, Mikey can't be alone, and I don't even know how Donnie is feeling right now. And I hate myself for not being able to help them." He paused, letting a few tears leak down his cheeks before drying his face. He didn't even know he had been crying. He sat in the silence that Casey allowed, calming his breathing and relishing in releasing the tension that had been building for months. "Where do I put all of that?"
"We carry it with us," Casey said, "but we carry it together."
Leo met Casey's eyes and nodded. Casey watched Leo's shoulders fall and, though he looked less devastated, it was clear that the leader was exhausted. "Why don't you try to get some rest? You've been up for ages."
Leo sharply exhaled through his nose in amusement, followed by a lighthearted groan. "Who are you, my dad?"
"Who are you? Donnie?" Casey quipped back.
Leo shut his mouth and fixed Casey with an unserious stare, pointing a finger at him for a moment before finally saying, "Too far."
Casey barked out a laugh, pushing Leo's accusatory hand aside. "Just go get some sleep."
Leo rolled his eyes dramatically, grateful for a chance to lighten the mood again. "That's no way to talk to your master, the greatest ninja of all time, is it?"
A thought slipped into Casey's mind as he debated whether or not to shove Leo off of the island. He almost dismissed the thought as soon as it came to him, but it was too amusing not to entertain. The Leonardo that he grew up around was as stubborn as ever—albeit not as childish—and Casey had been fortunate enough to have Michelangelo around to show him how to take Leonardo down a few pegs.
There was absolutely no way that method didn't derive directly from their childhood together. He debated whether or not the method would be best to use on this Leo, who still didn't know him quite as well.
Against his better judgment, Casey squeezed directly above Leo's left knee. The leader nearly leapt straight up out of the sewers, kicking his leg involuntarily with a loud "HAH!" Casey doubled over in laughter as Leo scrambled around the kitchen island, using it as a barricade between himself and Casey.
"How did you know that!?" Leo asked, eyes studying Casey's every move to locate the best escape route. Every time he jerked one way, Casey followed with expertise. It was as if Casey could see his every thought, every eye twitch, every hint of movement, and he adjusted himself accordingly.
"Oh, you never grow out of it, I'm afraid," Casey said with a sinister smirk, vaulting over the island and unceremoniously crashing into Leo.
Leo's tired, uncoordinated body had nearly tripped itself before Casey even hit him. He fought against his future student's attack for a moment, anticipating the point where Casey would pin him down and give him another chance to repent for his actions. He was not prepared for Casey to immediately grab his knee again, squeezing mercilessly and unpredictably.
"C-CahAHASEY WAHAHAIT!" he shouted through his laughter, stomping the ground with his heels.
"Yes, sensei?" Casey, perched on Leo's waist, used his free hand to poke and prod up and down Leo's sides. He fondly recalled the first time Michelangelo instructed him on how to bring down their fearless leader.
"No matter what, just don't let go of his leg," he had said, and Casey was elated to see that it was even more effective on a younger Leo. He was a laughing, sputtering mess in seconds.
Leo kicked his leg, trying to dislodge the offending hand. No matter what he did, Casey's hand wouldn't budge. Accompanied by Casey's other hand, which felt like it was everywhere at once, Leo could do nothing more than laugh his heart out.
"Are you ready to get some rest now?" Casey asked, pausing his onslaught to give Leo a chance to speak.
Through breathless giggles and a wide, toothy grin, Leo sealed his fate as he spat back: "Fat chance, Jones."
"Fine, then," Casey said with a casual shrug before his hands came back to life, tickling and squeezing with earnest.
"NohoHO! IHIHI'M NOHOT T-T—"
"You're not what? Not tired? Not ticklish?"
"SHUHUHUT UHUHUP!"
Casey, still squeezing Leo's lower thigh, turned himself around and reached down to tickle the calf of Leo's other leg. "You're just making this worse for yourself."
Leo's head spun, trying to block out the tickly sensations from Casey's fingers, but to no avail. Casey's fingers were nimble and experienced, knowing exactly how much pressure was needed to make it tickle just too damn much. Though he wasn't sure exactly how the kid was so knowledgeable, he had a feeling Mikey was to blame.
That thought quickly slipped to the back of his mind when Casey hit a particularly bad spot near the back of his knee, drawing an embarrassing squeal from the mighty leader. It wasn't until now that he realized just how long it had been since he had been tickled and, while it wasn't the first thing on his mind the past few months, he couldn't deny that he missed the familiar feeling.
"Are you tired yet?"
Despite the kneejerk reaction to say something snarky, Leo couldn't deny that he was reaching his limit much quicker than usual. "Y-YEHEHES!"
Casey withdrew his hands instantly, sitting back on his heels and watching Leo catch his breath. "Now, about that—"
"Nap," Leo said breathlessly, giving Casey a weary thumbs up, "On it."
Casey pulled Leo to his feet and ushered him off to bed. Leo nearly collapsed onto his bed, feeling his blanket fully engulf his body in a warm, comfortable embrace. His eyes closed and the familiar scenes of his endangered brothers tugged at his brain immediately. But before long, the scenes melded into the memory of his family pulling him out of the prison dimension. Memories flooded his tired mind; memories of the years that he shared with his brothers, the various adventures they had together, and all of the fun that he had along the way.
The haunting memories still interrupted the good ones, but they didn't completely overwhelm him, at least not for tonight.

For requests, Maybe Mikey sneaking up on Leo and the latter getting his revenge on the box turtle, I mean, it's just that there isn't a lot of content with the Baja duo (that's their name right? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)
Interruption
Tumblr media
This image of them doesn’t really have much to do with the fic but it was the best one I could find lmao. Anyway I hope you like it!!! Wish it could’ve been a bit longer but yknow yknow.
Summery: Mikey takes advantage of Leos very distracted state
Warnings: None besides tickling so if that makes you uncomfortable feel free not to read
Mikey was feeling mischievous today. He was honestly bored out of his mind anyway, so when he saw Leo, sitting on the couch, on his phone, and seemingly unaware of anything around him due to being so focused, Mikey knew this was an opportunity that couldn’t be passed up.
That being said, he made his way towards Leo, slowly sneaking up behind him, Leo not noticing a thing. Mikey landed a poke to the red eared sliders side, making him yelp and drop his phone. “Agh! Mikey!!!” Leo exclaimed exasperatedly.
“Haha! Gotchu Leo!!!” Mikey yelled before tackling him to the floor.
Leo tried fighting him off, but when Mikey began trying to tickle him, it weakened him enough to allow Mikey to gain the upper hand. Soon he had Leo writhing underneath him as Mikey poked and dug into every spot he could reach on his upper half.
Leo tried catching his arms but the younger one was too fast for him. Mikey then reached behind to squeeze his thighs and Leo was completely lost. His cackles and screams rang through the living room.
“MIHIHIKEHEY STOHOHOHOPPP!!!” He shouted through the laughter, desperately trying to shake off his little brother. “Hmmm…” Mikey sounded out in mock thinking. “Nope!”
Leo was sure he was going to die. The sensations were taking over his brain and nervous system. His body wasn’t listening to him as he writhed helplessly on the floor. In a last minute attempt to make the sensations stop, he began digging into Mikey’s sides, making Mikey burst into giggles as he stopped squeezing his thighs to grip his wrist.
“Fohorgot ihi hahad ahahrms?” Leo giggled (both from the previous tickling and amusement from this new situation)
“Ohhh you’re in trouble now little bro.”
When he dug into Mikey’s armpits, it made the orange turtle squeal and weakened him enough for Leo to be able to push him off and to the side, allowing Leo to climb onto him. “Leheheoo plehehehease!!!” Mikey protested as he tried but failed to pull his olders arms away, honestly enjoying the situation.
“Hmmm…” Leo hummed in mock thought, referring to the joke Mikey made previously. “Nope!” Leo then dug into his neck, and Mikey exploded into hysterical cackles.
“LEHEHO NONOHO NOHOHOT THEHEHERE!!!” Mikey squealed. “But why Mikester? Is this a bad spot?” Leo asked, pretending to play dumb.
“YEHEHEHS STOHOHOP!!”
“Hmm… maybe if you apologize for interrupting my quiet time I’ll think about it.”
“NOHOHO WAHAHYYY!!!”
Leo chuckled at this and shook his head. He was too stubborn for his own good. “Your loss then little brother.” And he continued torturing him mercilessly.
Soon Mikey couldn’t take the sensation any more and he had no choice but to give in. His sanity depended on it.
“OHOHOHKAHAHY IHIHIM SOHOHORRY IHIM SOHOHORRYHYHY!!!”
Mikey might be stubborn, but he definitely wasn’t tough enough to handle this torture. Leo grinned with satisfaction and finally stopped.
Mikey curled up, bringing his hands up to cover his neck and rubbed the ghost tickles away. “I hahahate yohohu!!” Mikey giggled.
“Pfft- you started it!” Leo grinned, lightly poking his little brothers side, making Mikey yelp out and flinch.
Mikey knew he deserved it, but that doesn’t mean he won’t try getting some revenge himself.

Ranking them 1-4 which would you say is the most to least ticklish tmnt? and why? (if you have a reason) 0.0
Oooo yes!
1- Leo, because we saw how he reacted to tiny paper people tickling him now imagine that x10 worse with actual fingers, he's a walking tickle spot and I love him more than anything
2- Mikey, It comes with being the youngest but he is also a walking tickle spot he just has protection on his death spot but he's just so adorable you can't get mad at him for itt /pos
3- Donnie, he's ticklish yes but it's not as bad as the other two, he doesn't react to light tickles as much either but if you pinch his thighs it's over so I think he's better trained for it but I also just see him more as a ler-lean
4- Raph he is ticklish yes but not that much, get his spikes though oohhh he's gone! There's only a few other spots on him but none really get him laughing too much

Tinytello gets Tinytickles
Tumblr media
Summary: Leo finds out that Donnie has experimented on himself again and turned himself into “Tinytello.” With the help of his brothers, he convinces Donnie to promise to never experiment on himself again.
Lee: Little Donnie (Tinytello)
Lers: Leo, Raph & Mikey
Authors Note: Based off of this adorable art! 💖 https://www.tumblr.com/snailsnaps/701662135198023680/i-couldnt-stop-thinking-about-this-prompt-from
*————————————————————————*
“No! No! No! No!” The little version of Donnie yelled as his younger twin carried him under his arm. Well, I guess he was the younger one now. Physically that is. An experiment gone wrong had changed Donnie back into a small kid. He was still teenage Donnie, but his form was that of when he was around six years old. And now he was forced to go towards Raph’s room as Leo held onto his squirming figure.
“Oho no, Donton. I know for a fact Raph would love to see this.” Leo chuckled in a playful tone. Donnie continued to kick his little legs and try to escape. The sleeves of his hoodie, slightly longer than his arms, flapped along with his hands with each desperate attempt of freedom.
Leo shushed Donnie then knocked on Raph’s door, hiding Donnie behind his back. He walked in after hearing a “come on in.”
“You’ll never guess what I found dear hermano.” Leo smirked, making sure to keep a good grip on the still squirming Donnie against the back of his shell. Before Raph could guess, he heard a small grunt from behind Leo. “Uhh, Leo…” Raph stood up from his bed. “Please don’t tell me you stole a kid-“
“Why would I- Never mind. Look!” He exclaimed bringing Donnie out from behind his shell and holding him up for Raph to see. Raph gasped, only to then aww at his adorable little brother.
“Daww!! Look at little Donnie!” Raph gave Donnie a pat to the head. Donnie swatted at his hand before giving up and accepting the affection. “But wait, how did this happen? Leo, you didn’t do this to him did you?!” Raph pointed a stern finger at him.
“It wasn’t me! Little Donnie here was experimenting on himself again.” Donnie tried to protest, but Raph was way ahead of him. “You what?! Donnie, I thought we talked about this. This is extremely dangerous. You’re lucky you didn’t turn yourself into some other mutant thing. We don’t need to be more mutated than we already are.” Donnie huffed and crossed his arms.
“Oh relax! I didn’t die or anything. Now if you let me go, I can go reverse this and we can pretend this never happened.” Donnie tried to sound serious with his kid voice. It didn’t work. If anything, it made his brothers smile even more.
“Not gonna happen.” Raph started. “You need to learn to be more careful. Even though this experiment seems to be the most adorable mistake you’ve ever made.” Raph’s baby voice came out in the last sentence as his pupils grew three times in size. Leo nodded his head at Raph’s comment.
“I know right!! He’s just a little guy!” Leo nuzzled his cheek against Donnie’s. Donnie pushed at his brothers face, his legs trying as hard as they could to kick at Leo’s arms. “I am not adorable now put me down!!” Donnie yelled. He yelped when Raph took him from Leo. Leo pouted, but remained where he was, letting Raph have some time to reminisce about when they were little. Raph held Donnie in one arm, the other flapping in happiness.
“I REMEMBER WHEN YOU GUYS WERE THIS SMALL!! I wish you guys could’ve stayed like this forever!” Raph couldn’t help the tiny jumps on his heals. He was having cuteness overload and Donnie would be lying if he said he didn’t find Raph’s reaction to him a little adorable. It was still embarrassing nonetheless, but seeing his brother so happy over his mistake was better than anger. A smile crept its way onto his face when Raph lifted him up and spun around a little. Leo wished he could take pictures with his mind, he had unfortunately left his phone in his room.
“Hey, I heard Raph’s cuteness overload voice what am I missing?” Mikey said as he suddenly entered Raph’s room. He immediately eyed the tiny version of their brother in Raph’s arms.
“OH MI GOSH!!!!” Mikey exclaimed, quickly snatching little Donnie from Raph. “Aren’t you just the cutest little thing!” Mikey cooed as he hugged him close. His brother was just too cute! And the oversized hoodie and glasses weren’t helping Donnie’s case.
“I am not cute!! Now put me dohohown! Hehehehe! Mihihikey!” Donnie burst into squeaky giggles when Mikey started to prod at his neck. His shoulders scrunched up with each feather light poke.
“Oh my gosh- I think my heart is going to explode-“ Leo held a hand against his heart as he stared at the adorable sight. At the same time, Raph brought out his phone to take a video. Mikey moved from one side of Donnie’s neck to the other, Donnie’s small fingers only managing to lightly push at Mikey’s hand.
“Nohohoho! Stahahahahap! Hehehahaha!” Donnie squealed when the back of his neck was targeted. Mikey felt his heart absolutely melt. And that’s when Leo thought of a plan. A plan to make sure Donnie wouldn’t make this mistake again.
“Ohokay. Mikey will let you go…” Leo paused for dramatic effect while leaning down towards Donnie. “If you promise to never experiment on yourself again.” Donnie gasped through a giggle.
“Nehever! I aham a mahahan of sciehehehence!” Donnie managed to say as Mikey continued his light flutters to the back of Donnie’s neck. Leo smirked, knowing that was exactly the answer he was going to get.
“Well right now you’re a man, or boy I should say, who’s gonna get tickled until he agrees with us.” Donnie’s eyes widened. They wouldn’t- not while he’s like this- Oh who was he kidding. Of course they would!
“Noho wahahahay!” Donnie could never ignore the sweet call of the mistress that is science. Even if it did mean getting tickled to death while being in this form.
“I was hoping you’d say that hermanito.” Cue Leo’s classic smirk before he joined Mikey in tickling Donnie. Raph stood to the side, recording video after video and trying to keep his cooing quiet. Donnie’s laughter was proving to be loud enough to cover any comments he made anyway.
“Aww~ Does that tickle, Tinytello~” Leo teased, scribbling his fingers around and around Donnie’s little plastron. He made sure to give pokes to his sides every now and then to hear little Donnie’s voice crack with each squeal.
“Nahahahahahaha! *squeal* Stahahahahahap!” Donnie kicked his legs and switched between trying to grab at Mikey’s fingers and pushing at Leo’s hands. Neither was doing much for his benefit. His glasses were a bit askew on his face and the hoodie was doing little to nothing to protecting his sensitive shell.
“Rahahahahaph! Hehehelp mehehe!” Donnie tried reaching out towards his older brother, only for a sneaky finger to wiggle under his arm causing him to shriek and pull back.
Leheohoho! Knohohohck ihit ohohoff!” Donnie yelped as Leo’s finger remained “trapped” under the little turtle’s arm. Raph giggled before deciding it was time to join in on the fun. He set up his phone against some clutter on his shelf, making sure he was able to get everyone in the shot. He walked over to stand beside Mikey and grabbed onto the tops of little Donnie’s knees.
“NOHO! Rahahaph dohohohon’t!” Donnie was still trying to keep his other two brothers at bay. He knew he would give in eventually if Raph contributed to the antics. Mikey and Donnie paused their assault, giving him time to take a break.
“So Tinytello~” Leo bent down to gently talk into Donnie’s ear, knowing it was a sensitive place for Donnie. “Are you gonna stop being a menace to yourself? Or are you gonna die of adorable squeaky giggles. Your choice.” Leo chuckled at the way Donnie shook his head but couldn’t help but giggle at the whispers.
“Leo’s right, Donnie. If you don’t agree, we’ll just have to keep you like this forever and ever. Tickling you aaaallll night long.” Mikey punctuated his sentence with some squeezes to the back of Donnie’s neck. Donnie snorted and curled up best he could, unable to make any sort of comeback.
“And then we’ll have to tell April. And I’m sure she’d loooove to tickle little Donnie until she feels satisfied.” Raph started squeezing Donnie’s knees. A high pitched squeal followed by louder giggles filled the room. Leo lifted Donnie’s arm that was closest to him and slowly wiggled his finger towards the outstretched underarm. He snickered at how Donnie barely even tried to pull at his arm, accepting his fate and giggling his little heart out.
“All together hermanos!” Leo declared, his finger finally touching its target and wiggling away under Donnie’s arm. Donnie kicked and squealed and snorted and swore. His other arm flapping due to happy stimming and not really knowing what else to do. Mikey gave Donnie a big raspberry to the side of his neck and that’s when he finally brought out the white flag to wave in surrender.
“OKAY! OKAHAHAHAY! I GIHIHIHIVE! I WOHON’T- GAHAHAHAHAHA STAHAHAHAP!” Donnie lost himself in laughter when Raph interrupted him by quickly lifting up his hoodie and blowing a raspberry on his plastron.
“Sorry what was that? Didn’t quite hear ya.” Raph teased, blowing another small raspberry on his side. Leo continued to hold onto Donnie’s arm, the other lightly smacking at Raph’s head with the hoodie sleeve.
“I WOHOHON’T EHEXPERIMENT OHON MYSEHEHELF! NOHOHOW STAHAHAHAHAP! PLEHEHEHEASE!” Raph and Leo finally backed away. Mikey letting Donnie go limp in his arms, cradling his little big brother. Raph went over and grabbed his phone, ending the video and saving it to watch later. He turned back and saw Leo covering his mouth. Looking closer, he saw that Donnie had fallen asleep in Mikey’s arms. I guess staying up for hours experimenting then being tickled by your three brothers really takes it out of you.
“Aww, he’s so peaceful!!” Mikey whisper screamed. He lent down and gave Donnie a kiss to the forehead, tearing up when he saw the smile widen on Donnie’s sleeping face. Leo carefully took off Donnie’s glasses, walking alongside Mikey and Raph as all three of them took him to his room.
“Should we tell dad?” Mikey asked as he gently laid Donnie down in his bed. He grabbed the blanket and carefully draped it across Donnie. Raph shook his head.
“Let’s wait till the morning. Let the little guy sleep for now. Seems like he needs it.” Raph put a stuffed animal next to Donnie’s hands, watching as Donnie unconsciously grabbed it held it close. Leo put his glasses on the nightstand, being sure to check that Donnie was all tucked in all warm and cozy.
“Goodnight, Tinyello.” Leo gently whispered, giving Donnie a small rub to his back. Raph quietly snapped a few more pictures before having to be dragged out of the room by Mikey and Leo. The affects would wear off eventually. But until then, Donnie slept more than he had in a really long while.

Summary: Mikey tries making a treat for his bros, but things don't go as planned, bumming him out. The boys quickly notice and, after a quick wrestling match and some questions, manage to get their baby bro back into his high spirits.
Warnings: none! This is a fic, so if you don't like that, scroll away!!
Tumblr media
“No no nononONONO!”
Feeling his heart sink, Mikey pulled his fruity Danish pastries from the oven. The charred surfaces and burning smell of the treats brought tears to his eyes. Three hours of work down the drain…
The teen had been trying to make desserts for his brothers; they’d been really supportive during his recovery from the Kraang invasion, encouraging him and helping him wrap his arms. Even Donnie had put aside some extra time to shop for arm braces. They deserved it.
His arm had a flare-up during the baking, making him take a break to put a brace on. The timer had gone off without him in the room, his poor confections roasted beyond recognition. He sniffed, dumping the marred fruits of his labor into the trash. Maybe some music and drawing would help…
-
“Okay, family meeting.” Raph sat down with his two of his brothers, Donnie quickly correcting him. “Teeechnically, it's a partial family meeting. If we count the main seven family members and round the percentage, it's only about 42%-” He got a hand clamped over his mouth, the blue-themed turtle interjecting. “HUSH the nerd stuff! We know what we're here for, right?”
Donnie scoffed, but stopped spouting math. All three brothers knew what the problem was. Raph took charge again, attempting some order. “Mikey's been really down all day. Raph's worried about him.”
The purple clad turtle tapped his wristlet, frowning. He had been keeping track of Mikey's expressions from the past few days.“He seemed fine yesterday. Angelo’s face only drops around two today. I hadn't seen him for a few hours, my data’s a bit incomplete. I think he was in the kitchen.”
Leo blinked, seeming shocked. “Wow. Your number craziness finally paid off.” A claw extended from Donnie’s battle shell, whacking the snarky teen upside the head. Raph stepped between them before any more chaos could ensue.
“HEY! Donnie, do ya know what he was doin’ in there?” He huffed before answering, looking down. “I…do not. Dr. Delicate Touch made me promise not to install cameras; even I won't defy him.”
That was fair; none of them wanted to go against Dr. DT… Leo sighed, twirling his mask tails as he spoke. “I've tried asking, but no dice. The dude's clearly not okay, but he won't talk about it. Little hypocrite…” 
The techy teen offered an idea. “We could try to interrogate him.” Leo snorted, snapping out of his little trance. “Interrogate? What is this, one of dad's movies? Besides, it'd probably only make him more upset.”
Raph bit his finger as he thought; one bad habit he'd tried and failed to drop. He got an idea, snapping his fingers and smiling. Bingo. “I got it! Listen up boys, here’s the plan…”
-
Mikey was sitting on his bed, moping and dragging a pencil across some cardboard. He wasn’t making anything; it was just a nice way to destress. Things weren’t working as well as they usually did, though… A knock at his train car door startled him, making the typically upbeat boy flinch and drop the pencil. “C-coming…”
The metal slid open, an obviously forced smile on his face. All three of them wanted to wrap him in a hug, but they had to follow the plan. “Hey guys…what is it?” 
Leo stepped forward, looking his brother over. He took special notice of the arm braces. “Alright hermano, the jig is up. What’s wrong?”
The boy’s fake smile faltered a bit, though he tried to keep the act going. “J-jig? I dunno what you’re talking about, Leo. I’m good!” His artificial confidence got a bit stronger at the end. It was clear he wasn’t telling them without a fight. 
Raph was next to get closer, trying to sneakily box the boy in. This time, however, a small smile was paired with the chasm. 
A small squeak escaped the youngest as he backed up, recognizing the look on his brothers’ faces. They wouldn’t…would they? “C’mon Mike, this can go quickly if ya just hold still.” Oh. They would.
Feeling a slight giddiness rise in his chest, Mikey ran farther into his train car, diving for his escape hatch. Raph stopped him in his tracks, using his mystic tonfā power to catch him in a giant fist. Leo ran over, being careful of his brother’s arms as he tossed him into his hammock.
“GUys- guys wahait! Mikey squirmed and kicked, the hammock swinging as he thrashed. Leo flipped his sword, opening two portals to hold his brother’s arms safely. Didn’t want him getting hurt after all that recovery time.
“Nah, there’s no fun in waitin’. Raph’s out for giggles and the truth.” Wasting no time, Raph started poking at his brother’s armpits. A genuine smile formed on the younger’s face, giggles spilling from his lips. “Rahaphie! Nohohot thihis!” 
“But this is the best! You get to giggle, and we get to hear it.” Leo smirked, not wanting to miss out on the fun. “Big man’s right, Miguel. The truth will set you free~!” He moved his hands to Mikey’s plastron, scratching and scribbling on the area where his stomach would be. “LeheheHEEOOOOO! C-chohOHOME OHOHOhohon!” 
“Just tell the truth, Micheal. You know there’s no simple way out of this predicament.” Donnie took in the sight of them; his co-conspirators smirking, enjoying the sound of their brother’s laughter, and Mikey, laughing and sounding happier than he had all day. He supposed it was worth breaking a few of his rules for the occasion. He pressed a button on his bo, the feather he used against Shredder popping out. 
“D-dehehee? Whahat ahare youHU- NYAAAHAHAHO!” Mikey squealed as he felt the soft fibers of the feather run behind his knees. Curse him for taking off the knee pads… The armpit pokes, the tummy scritches, the feather on his knees; it was all too tickly. It was nice to be able to laugh with his brothers, though he didn’t know how much longer he could take all of them at once.
Raph chuckled, smiling warmly as his brother laughed. Those goofs were gonna be the death of him…but he loved them more than he could ever express. If it takes some playful tickles to get one of his bros to open up, then so be it. “All ya gotta do is fess up, Mikey. What’s been goin’ on today?”
He still didn’t seem like he was giving up, though it was clear he was reaching a breaking point. Donnie, ever the over-achiever, wanted to speed things up. He sent a claw from his battle shell to his brother’s knees, having it squeeze and scribble along the underside. That did him in. 
“K-GAHAHAHA! DOHOHONIEHEHE! *snrk* NAHAHAH!” Raph gave the purple-clad turtle a look, sighing. “The goal is to get the truth, Donnie, not kill him.” Dee just chuckled, continuing the metallic tickles. 
Kicking and thrashing like crazy, the teen finally reached his limit. “OHOHOKAHAHAY! IHI- *snrk* IHI’ll TEHEHELL!” 
And just like that, it all stopped.
Donnie begrudgingly retracted his tools, a small smile still on his face as he watched his little bro giggle. Leo followed suit, though Raph’s hand moved to the underside of the boy’s chin. He gently wiggled his fingers into the soft skin, chuckling as his little bro melted into the touch. His loud and bubbly laughter died down to soft, breathy giggles.
“Spill it, little man~” Raph practically purred as he said it, his tone softening with the next phrase. “We promise not to judge.” 
Mikey whined through his giggles, but didn’t squirm. Leo had long since released his arms; he just hadn’t noticed. “Uh-uhuhum…I wahanted to make youhuhu guhuys some d-dahanishehes for helpihing me throuhugh recovery.” He looked down, still not pulling away from the loving tickles. He’d never say it out loud, but he loved them.
“Ihi uhm… Ihihi kinda buhuhurned them. H-hahad a flare-up whehen they went ihin the ohohoven…” All three brothers’ expressions softened, even Donnie’s. The thought was incredibly sweet, and it wasn’t his fault his arms still hurt sometimes.
“Mikey…listen. We love ya. Even if you weren’t an awesome baker, we’d still take care of ya.” He continued to gently scritch under his chin, though the big guy limited it to one finger. Donnie jumped in, not making eye contact. “It’s not your fault you still get pains. Based on typical recovery times, you’re actually making exponential progress. Occasional aches are to be expected.”
“If you ever need anything, we’re all here for you. I could help with the baking and stuff, if you want.” Leo’s offer made his heart soar, as well as his other brothers’ kind words. Heartfelt moments like those would forever be cherished, especially that one.
He felt a few tears spring to his eyes, arms reaching for his bros’ hands. “Youhu guys are the behehest…” Raph stopped tickling, enveloping them all in a hug. Donnie whined, but he relaxed into the embrace. Mikey sighed, his heart full and the sadness from earlier in the day completely gone. He loved his brothers so freaking much…

Here’s my first fic for you all! It took me a hot second to write this one because I had to stop from the amount of times I got flustered, but I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
I’m planning on writing headcanons for the boys soon so keep your eyes open for those!
Disclaimers: This is a tickle fic, so if you’re not into that please just scroll :)
Warnings: none, just fluff :)
Word Count: 1,668
——————————————————
Movie Night
“Donnie get down here! It’s movie night!” Mikey yelled into the sewers.
The scent of popcorn filled the tunnels, making its way up to Donnie’s lab and catching his nose by surprise.
Donnie set his latest project down on his desk and lifted up his goggles.
Man, that popcorn was smelling really good.
“Coming Angelo!” Donnie yelled back, getting up from his chair and grabbing his phone.
——————
“Which Jupiter Jim are we watching tonight?” Leo sat down on the floor with a massive bowl of popcorn in front of him.
“Well Mikey and I were talking about it earlier, and we decided to watch Lou Jitsu tonight instead.” Raph picked up a movie disk and inserted it into the DVD player.
“Lou Jitsu? I don’t wanna watch Lou Jitsu!” Leo shoved a handful of popcorn into his mouth.
“Well, we can never seem to agree on a Jupiter Jim movie so we thought Lou Jitsu would be best!” Mikey walked in with his own bowl of popcorn and sat a few feet in front of Leo.
Donnie walked in with his face shoved in his phone and sat down next to Leo.
“But we’ve seen the Lou Jitsu movies- Donnie don’t touch my popcorn- like a million times!”
“I’m sorry Leo, but it was our turn to pick the movie tonight! We want to watch Lou Jitsu!” Raph fiddled with the tv remote.
“Plus we always watch the Jupiter Jim movies for movie night, so we wanted to switch it up,” Mikey added and shoved some popcorn into his mouth.
“I don’t really want to watch Lou Jitsu right now either Leon, but you know the rules. It’s their turn to choose tonight’s movie.” Donnie set his phone down and stared blankly up at the tv screen.
Leo rolled his eyes at Donnie and grumpily shoved another fistful of popcorn into his mouth as Raph turned off the lights.
The music from the movie started as Raph sat down next to Mikey, both of them grabbing handfuls of popcorn while their eyes were glued to the screen.
It was the same thing they had all seen too many times, Lou Jitsu yelling about hot soup and beating up bad guys.
Leo couldn’t bear to sit through another minute of this movie that they all knew by heart at this point. He was also out of popcorn already, so distracting himself with popcorn wasn’t an option.
Somebody needed to give him attention, now.
Leo peered over at Donnie, who was mindlessly scrolling through his phone again. He probably got bored of the movie too, but they all knew Mikey would be upset if they didn’t stay for the whole thing.
Leo looked at Mikey, who had chosen to use Raph’s arm as a head rest while they enjoyed the movie.
Leo looked back to Donnie again. Donnie looked lonely.
Leo impulsively rearranged himself so that the back of his head was facing Donnie, and he flopped backwards so that his head fell into Donnie’s lap.
“Nardo-” Donnie whispered, “What’re you doing?”
“I’m bored hermano-” Leo gave Donnie the sweetest face he could muster, “And you looked lonely,”
“Leo get off.” Donnie pushed at Leo’s head with his free hand, only for Leo to fight against him.
“Please let me rest my head on your lap Don-Ton! I won’t ever ask you for anything ever again!” He pleaded, sticking out his lower lip.
Donnie rolled his eyes and gave up wrestling with Leo’s head, instead settling for affectionate head rubs.
He decided it would be better to do what Leo wanted so his twin wouldn’t drive everybody else absolutely crazy.
“We both know that’s a lie, but I’ll allow it this time,” Donnie smirked down at him, secretly loving the affection from Leo. He didn’t mind it every once in a while.
In fact, he always found it somewhat endearing whenever Leo fell asleep on him.
Although he didn’t express his emotions often, the affection he received from his brothers was the one thing he always put up with because it made him feel loved.
Donnie liked that feeling.
“Perfect-” Leo closed his eyes and leaned into Donnie’s touch.
“Just don’t be annoying,” Donnie went back to staring at his phone, remembering to move his hand for Leo every once in a while.
Leo sighed and sunk deeper into comfort as the movie played on. Leo closed his eyes for a few minutes before opening them again.
As comfortable as Leo was, he was still bored.
Leo looked up at Donnie, whose eyes moved rapidly back and forth as he read whatever he was looking at on his phone.
Donnie needed to smile more, he always looked so angry.
“Boop-” Leo reached up and started poking the side of Donnie’s shell.
“Leheo-” Donnie choked down a laugh and grabbed his brother’s hand almost instantly.
“What’s the matter Donnie? Are you ticklish or something?” Leo smirked up at him.
Oh, two could play at this game.
“I know you are-” Donnie raised an eyebrow, setting his phone down.
“I am? Since when?” Leo quipped back, unable to hide the fact that his cheeks were starting to burn pink.
“Oh, Nardo, Nardo, Nardo,” Donnie scoffed, “You just make things so much harder for yourself.” He raised Leo’s arm so it was raised above his head.
Leo couldn’t help the nervous giggles escaping from his lips, Donnie’s smirk not making it any easier to keep his composure.
“Not so cocky now are you Leon?” Donnie scribbled his fingers in Leo’s exposed underarm, making him squeal.
“Dohonnie!”
Mikey and Raph whipped their heads to look behind them, instantly smiling at the adorable scene between the twins.
“What’s so funny Leo?” Raph asked, a massive smirk taking over his face.
“Yeah Leo, aren’t you enjoying the movie?” Mikey added.
“I’m not sure what’s gotten into him guys, he randomly got really giggly all of the sudden-” Donnie’s monotonous tease making Leo’s laughter raise an octave.
“Shuhut it!” Leo squealed, attempting to pull his arm down and protect his side.
“SCOFF- Leo! Don’t be so rude!” Donnie let go of Leo’s wrist, moving to scratch both hands along the sides of Leo’s shell.
Childish giggles erupted from Leo, making all three of his brother’s faces light up. Even Donnie couldn’t resist the smile that took over his face.
“NAHAH DEEHEEHEE!” Leo threw his head back in deep laughter.
“You were the one that wanted attention Nardo, and now you’re getting it!” Donnie chuckled, sometimes Leo’s charm was irresistible.
“DONNIEHEEHEE!” Leo rolled off of his brother’s lap, the residual giggles still spilling out of his mouth as he curled himself up into a ball.
“And I thought Donnie was the sensitive one-” Raph eyed him, chuckling when Donnie’s eyes grew wide.
“Hey!” Donnie’s smile was replaced with an embarrassed pout.
“If I wasn’t worn out, I would tohotally get you back right now-” Leo uncurled himself and laid on his back, pointing a finger at the other middle brother.
“Yeah, yeah,” Raph poked Leo in the middle of his shell, “Calm down, little bro.” Leo giggled and rolled over again before sitting up.
“Uh oh, it looks like Donnie needs a pick-me-up from Dr. Delicate Touch.” Mikey pointed out Donnie’s flustered state.
“No! No I do not!” Donnie yelled, “Don’t you dare come near me!”
“We just want to give you our brotherly love Donnie!” Leo chimed in, his signature smirk painting his face.
“Wahait guys! Aren’t you watching the mohovie?” Donnie backed away from all of his brothers gaining on him.
“Eh,” Mikey shrugged, “I’ve seen it a bunch of times-”
“Yeah, what he said,” Raph cracked his knuckles for dramatic effect.
“There’s no getting out of this is there?” Donnie whimpered, all three of his brothers towering over him.
“Not a chance Don-Ton,” The revenge in Leo’s eyes shone.
“Get him, boys!” Raph shouted.
“Nardo- Mihikey!” Donnie shouted as his brothers tackled him to the floor.
Donnie had started giggling madly before they had even touched him, his rare genuine laughter bouncing off the walls of the sewers.
“D we didn’t even touch you yet!” Mikey giggled, relieving Donnie of the anticipation by digging his fingers into Donnie’s neck.
“I wish this darn battle shell wasn’t in the way,” Leo scratched around the side of his brother’s shell where his real shell met the artificial one, “It hides all of the sensitive spots-”
“NAHARDO!” Donnie cried with laughter, desperately pushing at Leo’s hands in an attempt to escape this torture while also trying to protect his neck from Mikey.
“Alright we all know how Donnie can get so let’s give him a break.” Raph smiled at his younger brothers.
“Aww man, fine-” Leo flipped Donnie’s goggles over his eyes.
“We love you D!” Mikey squeezed Donnie into a hug.
“Yeah, yeah,” Donnie flipped his goggles back up, “Come here you-” Donnie grabbed Mikey and gave him a few ticklish pokes to his neck, earning squeals from the youngest.
“Wahait what part of the movie are we at?” Mikey managed to tear away from Donnie’s grasp.
“We’re already at the end?” Raph turned to the movie.
“I guess we did kind of ruin movie night, sorry guys,” Leo chuckled sheepishly.
“That’s okay, it turned out to be way more fun anyways,” Mikey chirped.
“And embarrassing,” Raph added, giving his brothers a knowing look.
“Huh,” Donnie’s face was suddenly overtaken by his famous grin that meant he had an idea. His brothers turned their heads to look at him.
“Uh, oh,” Raph’s eyes widened, “What have you got planned Donnie?”
“”Uh, oh” is right, dear Raphael,” Donnie made eye contact with his brothers, who all looked confused.
“Is nobody getting what I’m getting at? Nobody? Ugh alright-” Donnie rolled his eyes, “Raph, are you still ticklish?”
Mikey and Leo’s confusion suddenly turned to massive grins as they all turned to the eldest brother.
“Mad dogs! On my signal!” Leo cracked his neck, ready to pounce.
“Uh, oh-”

22. “your hands are freezing!” with rottmnt disaster twins would be so cute!
Maybe with Lee!Leo and Ler!Donnie
Arm(chair)ageddon
Summary: Movie night can't just be a movie night, and Leo needs to be taken down a peg (but you didn't need me to tell you that).
Author's note: This was so fun to write! Thank you, anon, for the lovely prompt from this list! We love some disaster twins chaos! I hope you all enjoy! (Also, not planned, but posting some lee!Leo content on @leosmasktails's birthday just seems so right. Happy birthday pal!)
Warnings: Just tickling, so please don't read if that isn't your jam!
Word count: 942
22. "Your hands are freezing!"
Despite all of the complaints and fussing, Splinter still wouldn't budge on replacing his comfy armchair with a sofa big enough for everyone to fit on. "But we don't have to replace it, we just want a couch as well!" No matter what tactic they used to ask, or how much Mikey gave the classic puppy eyes, their father just wasn't interested.
Therefore, the rules remained as they had always been: Whoever sits down first gets the chair, and if they leave for any reason, the chair can be claimed by anyone else.
Sure, maybe it would make more sense to alternate who sits in the chair every night, but that would mean Leo would have to sit on the floor more often than not.
And, well, that just wasn't an option.
"Gather around, children," he said with the arrogance of someone who hasn't sat on the floor for the past seven movie nights.
Mikey, who had just narrowly lost the couch to Leo this time around, sat beside Raph on the floor, just to the left of the squashy armchair. He stuck out his lower lip in a pitiful pout. "This is so unfair!"
Raph rubbed the back of his littlest brother's shell, giving Leo a look. "Yah know, Leo, it wouldn't kill you to give someone else a turn. I want—er, Mikey wants a chance!"
"He'll get his chance," Leo said, swinging his legs over the right arm of the chair, "When he earns it fair and square."
Donnie was sat on the floor to the right of the chair, scrolling through his phone. "Angelo, don't listen to him. It's not even that good of a seat, it smells like dad." Donnie was, notoriously, the one who sat in the chair the least.
"Sorry, what was that, DonTon? It's hard to hear you from all the way up here."
"Just play the movie."
Raph started the movie of Mikey's choice, which predictably pulled him out of his mopey mood. Donnie continued to scroll through his phone, as they had all seen this movie upwards of fifty times. They all practically memorized it and, though it was a superb movie, it was still the same ninety minutes.
The light from his phone caught Leo's attention. The blue-banded brother was trying to find something to do aside from quote the whole movie by heart. They were only halfway through at this point, and Leo couldn't fathom sitting still for another minute. He swung his foot, managing to kick the phone out of Donnie's hand and to the ground with an amusing thunk.
"Leon," Donnie whispered, as to not interrupt the movie, "Watch it."
"Watch wh—the movie? Oh yeah, I am watching it, great flick." The shit-eating grin was audible in his tone, causing Donnie to nearly pull a muscle from rolling his eyes so dramatically.
Then the idea struck Donnie. Normally he wouldn't resort to such childish measures (yes he would), but the floor was cold and his phone was at two percent, so he gave in to the temptation. After all, if the winner leaves the chair, it's fair game. And Donnie wanted that sweet, sweet cushiony seat. With that in mind, Donnie placed his hands on Leo's calf, eliciting a strangled gasp from the red-eared slider.
Leo pulled his leg away quickly. "Your hands are freezing!" he whispered, as loudly as he could without disturbing Mikey and Raph.
Donnie grabbed Leo's other ankle before the brother could pull it back as well. There was a moment where eyes met and Leo knew that, through no fault of his own, he was in trouble.
"Leave me alone."
"I didn't think you knew the meaning of the phrase, Nardo," Donnie said quickly, scritching his fingers against the bottom of Leo's foot.
The reaction was immediate, Leo convulsed in the chair, fighting to pull his foot out of Donnie's grasp while also holding back his hysterical laughter. He covered his mouth to keep the giggles at bay, while trying to kick Donnie away with his free leg.
"Nardo, watch the movie, this part is very serious," Donnie said with a straight face, squeezing Leo's calf and ducking to avoid the flailing leg.
Leo's resolve lasted until Donnie snatched the other leg out of the air, holding his ankles in a headlock while he expertly scribbled his fingers across the bottoms of both feet. Peals of loud laughter echoed through the lair, stealing Raph and Mikey's attention from the movie.
"Sorry guys, he's acting up tonight," Donnie said nonchalantly, as if he wasn't tickling Leo within an inch of his life.
"Dohohonnie yohohou suhuck!"
"At least I didn't ruin movie night."
Leo slid onto the ground, trying to crawl to freedom with whatever strength he could gather. Donnie pulled him back, now squeezing both of Leo's knees.
"Lehehehet gohoho, cheheheATER!"
"Never! The supremely comfortable chair will be mine!"
"In y—HAHaha, yohohour dreams!"
"Uh, guys..." came Raph's voice, halting Donnie's attack so all eyes could turn to Mikey, standing on the arms of the chair victoriously.
"I... am... THE ALL-TIME CHAMP!" he proclaimed, dropping down into the chair with a bounce and a squeal of excitement. Donnie pushed Leo away with a loud groan, and Raph gave Mikey a thumbs up.
Leo, still panting, stared at the dirty floor. There was no way he could go back to sitting on the cold ground, not after living in luxury for so long. If he couldn't have the chair to himself, he could settle for generously sharing it with his beloved baby brother.
"Mikey, have I ever told you that you're my favorite brother?"

Here's an idea that popped into my head! Not long after the Kraang invasion, Leo's been worried about being too childish and creating more problems. He starts overcorrecting this by acting all serious and no-nonsense, trying too hard to be a mature leader.
His brothers see what's going on and miss their silly, sunshiny goofball. Soon enough, they decide to take matters into their own hands and launch a tickle attack to drag his silly side back to the surface.
Missing the sunshine

Hey hey hey!!! This took longer than I expect it to take to write this but ahhhhhh I love this group so friggin much. Hope you enjoy the fic and have a great day ❤️
Also this just might be one of my longest fics I’ve ever made lol so strap in ig. But again, I hope you like it!
Warnings: Tiny bit of angst but fluffy for the most part
Summery: The mad dogz miss Leos goofy and outgoing personality after the Kraang invasion, so they use an old childhood method to bring it back.
It’s been a week since the Kraang invasion. The four brothers were shaken up of course, but more or less they were fine. Well.. almost all of them.
Leo seemed to be the one most affected out of all of them. Perhaps it was because he was the one who ended up in the prison dimension?Because he was the one who almost died and tried sacrificing himself? Or because he was the leader now? Or maybe because he had so much on his shoulders that it was taking especially long for him to recover?
Whatever the case was, they missed their brother. The one who was always making one liners. The face man. The one who fired up the team when all hope seemed utterly lost. Nowadays he either worked them to the bone in training, or moped around, which was very much unlike him, since he used to be lazy about training. They hadn’t even heard him crack a single joke since before he got stuck in the prison dimension.
Donnie, Raph, and Mikey knew something had to be done. How can they help him go back to his old self? Instead of being serious and depressed.
“Hey Leo..?” Donnie asked popping his head through the door to his bedroom, “Do you want to come and skateboard with us? Bet I could beat you in a race.”
Leo, who had just been practicing his swords, looked at him, tempted to answer yes, but he backtracked and sighed “No… sorry Don. Not in the mood.”
Donnie stared at him incredulously. THE Leonardo Hamato just turned down skateboarding AND a challenge. Yep, this confirmed something was wrong.
“Why don’t we just train instead?” Leo asked, seeing Donnie’s worried expression.
“We’ve done nothing BUT training thanks to you.” Donnie complained. “I only hoped we could have fun for a change. Yknow, like we used to?”
Leo didn’t reply. He went back to practicing with his swords. Donnie frowned and went to the others.
“It’s a no go guys,” Donnie informed them, “sorry.”
“What?” Raph wondered. “He didn’t even want to skateboard?”
“He seemed to want to at first.” Donnie explained. “But something seemed to hold him back from saying yes.”
“What do you think it is Donnie?” Mikey asked.
“Hmm.. I’m not sure. He seems way more serious than he used to. Do you think it’s because Dad made him leader? And now he thinks he isn’t allowed to enjoy himself or have fun?”
“Hmm… I think I know what we can do to help him.” Mikey said, a hint of mischief in his voice. “Do you guys remember when we were kids, and whenever Leo was sad or grumpy, we’d tickle him till he’d feel better?”
A smirk grew on Donnie’s face. “I see where you’re going with this and I think you are a genius. Far second to me of course…”
“Guys,” said Raph, “let’s get our brother back!”
After some planning, they knew exactly what to do, and that night they decided to set it into motion. “Hey Leo?” Donnie popped a head through his door again.
“What is it Donnie?” Leo asked with a sigh. He was at it again with his swords, practicing. Donnie didn’t want to know how long he’d been doing that for.
“We… have a surprise for you…” Donnie told him tentatively, nervous that he wouldn’t take the bait. “Thought maybe you’d want to check it out?”
Leo looked at him with a puzzled expression, but he put his swords down and turned to him. “Lead the way.”
Donnie led his twin to the living room, where Raph and Mikey waited. “Hi Leo!” Mikey greeted him exitedly.
“Hey… so what exactly are you guys up to?”
Donnie smirked “Oh it’s just a little something we’ve been really wanting to give you. You’ve been seriously overdue for it anyway.”
“Overdue? Donnie what do you-“ Leo was cut off when Raph suddenly shouted “MAD DOGZ ATTACK!!!”
Before he could begin to process what was happening, the bigger of the four had him pinned down with his brute strength, settling on his thighs.
“R-Raph… d-don’t- get off me!” Leo protested, attempting uselessly to push him off.
“Donnie get his arms!” Raph ordered.
“With pleasure.” Donnie said with a small grin as his metal arms came out of his battle shell and forced Leos wrists over his head.
“Mikey would you like to do the honors?” Raph asked his youngest sibling.
Mikey grinned and nodded. “You KNOW it!!!”
“M-Mikey… g-guys, what’s going on??”
“Well Leon. You’ve been quite depressing to be around for the passed few days. We hoped this might help.”
And with that Mikey went right for his sides. Leo bursted into bubbly giggles. It was then the three attackers realized how much they missed that noise from him. “Guhuhuyss!!! Thihihs ihihs sohoho chihihildihish!!!!!!” Leo protested helplessly, trying to squirm out from under the heavy weight that was Raph. “Trust me bro, you need a bit of childishness right now.” Raph told him. “Lehehet mehehe gohoho ihihim buhusy!!!”
“Not until you’re you again!” Then he turned to Donnie. “Donnie?”
Donnie nodded, approached the victim, and began digging his fingers into his armpits. “AHAHAHA DOHOHNN!!!” Leo let out embarrassingly loud cackles. He arched his back as the sensitive flesh was being attacked all over. “We’ll stop when you promise to stop being so tense and serious.” Donnie bargained.
“WHAHAHAT AHAHRE YOHOU TAHALKING ABAOHOHUT??!!!” He yelled/asked through his laughter.
“You’ve been so grumpy and serious ever since the invasion.” Mikey told him. “We miss the old Leo who joked around.”
“THIHIS IHIS SOHOHO STUHUPIHID!” Leo told them. I mean really, torturing him because he was ‘too serious’?
“Ok then dear brother. I guess we have to do this the hard way. He began kneading into his thighs. The effect was instantaneous. Leo shreiked and burst into full on belly laughter.
“AHAHAHA OHOHKAHAY IHIHM SOHOHORREHYY!!”
Donnie stopped and he gestured Raph to get off of him.
“Guys…” Leo began once he caught his breath, “man I’m so sorry. It’s just, when the whole Kraang thing happened, I just thought that if I wasn’t as childish or immature as leader, then something like that wouldn’t have happened.”
Donnie was the first to speak. “Leo… if you ever blame yourself for that again in from of me, I will make sure you are tickled to near actual death.”
“Leo,” Raph said, “sure it might’ve been mostly your fault for the key getting stolen again, but I mostly blame myself, and dad. We all put so much pressure on you and you felt like you had to do everything to prove yourself to us. We’re sorry. We shouldn’t have put so much pressure on you.”
Leo smiled trying to blink away tears. “Are you crying?” Donnie teased with a smirk, “you big softy.”“Oh shut up!” Leo bursted out with a small laugh, and tackled his brothers in one big group hug.
