    Summary

    this is one of the first pieces of work on this account, meaning its old. the first few chapters may be awfully written and ive not gone back through an edited anything. however, give it a chance! despite the bad writing i assure you its worth the read.

    -

    Today was a bad day for leonardo. Hes had bad days before and always hides them. He doesnt understand why hes so stressed out, why he cant speak, why everything is just too loud and bright and disgusting horrible textures oh my god- its fine he can hide it. Its just weaknesses!
    Until he cant hide and his family finds out. His brothers find out theres something wrong with him. Donnie comes to a conclusion, and explains to him that there isnt anything wrong with him,

    Hes just autistic, and thats okay.

    -

    OR how leo got a very late autism diagnosis after a meltdown, and then learns to be more open about his sometimes very concerning mental health.

    -

    rarely ever hurt/no comfort, and there will definetly be chapters that are just fluffy and sweet (moral of the story im not just going to dehumanise autism and make it seem all super bad!)

    TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ there will be chapters with suicide, self harm, eating disorder ect

    Summary

    “I’ve researched operational and classical conditioning,” Stockman mused. “I could teach him to fear you in nothing but a few short weeks.”

    “It’s not fear I wish for him to know.” Saki traced his hand lower down the boy’s skin. Such an ugly green. Trust Yoshi to downgrade so drastically after failing the first time with Shen’s offspring. “I’ve spent the better part of a year hunting down his family. Last he opened his eyes, I’d gutted him so intensely that you’ve wasted a small fortune on healing him. No, it’d be too easy for you to associate my presence with world-ending, blood-curdling terror.”

    He cupped his hand around one side of Leonardo's face. “I want you to force him to love me.”

    Stockman didn’t blink. “Why can’t I do both?”

    or, at the end of season 2, the Shredder decides to keep Leo and instead sends a message by hurling Splinter's comatose body through the window. This gives him about three months to break Leo down into something new, through a combination of sensory deprivation, sensory overload, and a whole lot of mindfuckery. He wants a loyal devotee, even if he has to cram love down Leo's throat until it's all he's capable of bearing.

    ... And yet, they do."
