    Summary

    When Casey closes the gate, he saves the world from the Kraang while dooming Leo. Unable to accept that Leo is gone forever, Casey and Leo’s brothers attempt to create a portal to rescue Leo.

    They succeed, but something is different. Wrong.

    The turtle they rescue is Leo, but… not. In the twenty minutes it takes to rescue him, Leo’s aged two years. He’s broken and afraid, unable to trust even the voices of his family.

    Meanwhile, Casey is just coming to terms that he’s now living in a rescued timeline. In doing so, he opens himself to emotions and memories he’s buried for years.

    Neither of them expected a rescue. Neither know how to accept this new reality where death isn’t lurking around every corner. But with the help of their family, they just might learn.

    Summary

    How does it feel to be so very alone and so very forgotten?

    Why do you enjoy tormenting me?

    I will answer your question if you first answer mine.

    Leave me alone.

    Answer the question, Leo.

    No. Leave me alone. Allow me a shred of peace for once.

    Answer. The. Question.

    I don’t want to.

    You don’t have a choice.

    I never have a choice.

    Answer me.

    I won’t lose control of my own mind!

    Leee-ooo. Answer the quessss-tion.

    Why?

    Answer. Me. How does it make you feel, Leonardo?

    . . .

    Despair.

    Is that your answer?

    . . .

    Yes.

    Good.

    -or-

    After being hit with a mystic attack that removes Leo's ability to communicate one unexpected turn after another takes his life on a downward spiral that rips him away from his family; seems to have no end; time and time again puts him face-to-face with the reality that where he is told he belongs is not where he wants to be...

    All Part of the Growing Process by

    Fandom: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)

    11 Apr 2023

    Summary

    Hehe, I watched the Rise movie and decided to write some Leo trauma. It's not as much trauma as I would have liked, and definitely not as much as I've read in some other fics, but I enjoy writing these stories so eh.

    Leo's shell is cracked! How is he going to deal with that along with all of the past trauma he has? He won't be alone in his journey to heal, that's for sure. His family is there to help, along with a few more things :]

    (This storyline has slowly diverged from the original concept I had in mind, but I'm not complaining, and I hope you won't either)

    Series was originally named "Cracks in the Facade" but I changed it because I can and I hated the name.

    “I don’t know how I’m still functioning, I haven’t slept or ate or drank anything even once since getting here...”

    Leo’s voice cut out and everyone stood in silence for a moment, until Mikey yelled: “Why didn’t anyone tell me!?” Donnie replied honestly: “We thought you’d kill yourself trying to open a portal.” “You bet your shell I’m gonna open a portal! Leo’s still alive and I’m the only one who can get him out!”

    - or -

    Leo was presumed dead in the Prison Dimension, until a transmission from their trapped brother somehow reaches Donatello via his wrist com.

    Mikey is determined to use his mystic hands to save Leo from the Prison Dimension, even at the risk of his own life. Will they get their brother back? And if so, will he come back as the fun, pun-loving Leonardo they all know and love, or will a dark secret be hiding in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to pounce?

    Summary

    Donnie’s head was pounding and his limbs felt like wet paper as his senses started to return. Even with fuzzy vision, he could make out a horribly familiar office. Through the large, floor to ceiling window, the rising sun shined right in his eyes. Unfortunately, the ringing in his ears made it hard to distinguish sounds, but he knew the honeyed, singsong voice that was emanating from the lavender blob in front of him.

    “Good morning, turtley-boos! I have a business proposition for you.”

    ---------

    Or, the Disaster Twins are kidnapped by Big Mama and forced to fight in her Battle Nexus. Trauma, pain, brotherly bonding, and lots of fun angst for everyone!

    Summary

    The prison dimension was cold and dark. Debris everywhere. There were always things to be wary of, from broken ships to crumbling buildings. The Kraang could be hiding in anything. Despite the contrast in the bleak gray, the bright red lights of the creature's armor were hard to spot. Leo never had a chance to relax.
    He wasn't sure what to really expect; he knew this would happen. He honestly wanted it to. Better him than his brothers, right?
    He tried to suppress his memories of them. It made it that much harder to live- well, survive- in this desolate hell. He wondered if they moved on frequently. Had they made him a grave? Had they cleaned out his room?
    His thoughts always circled back to them, no matter how hard he tried. It hurt to think about them.

    Those Sleepless Nights by

    07 Feb 2023

    Summary

    Raphael had always been the one his brothers turned to when they were scared. He was the big, older, scarier turtle that would scare away whatever haunted their dreams. Many of nights, Raph would suddenly awaken to find a new weight in his bed that wasn’t there when he went to sleep. Sometimes, he would find there was more than one brother huddled into him, and it never made Raph more proud that they knew they could come to him.

    Then suddenly, Leonardo stopped visiting Raph’s room. It was abrupt and the red turtle wasn’t sure what to think about it. A part of him wanted to believe that Leo finally found a way to help himself sleep, but judging by the way he sometimes nursed a warm drink in the kitchen at the dead of night when Raph got up to use the little turtle’s room… he somehow doubted it. It pained Raph to think that he did something to drive away his little bro, but he couldn’t work up the courage to ask. Maybe Leo thought he outgrew coming to his big bro about his sleepless nights or nightmares? Raphael wasn’t sure, but he was sure that he hated it.
