That’s the Last Song You’ll Ever Sing by Caffinatedcastiel for qolden
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - All Media Types
12 Mar 2025

Summary
Without a doubt, Donatello was a flawed, dysfunctional excuse of a creature. His existence served no real purpose and maybe the world would be better off without him.
But he was still Donatello Hamato. He would always be Donatello Hamato, as cursed and wretched as he was. That would not be taken from him, no matter how clinging to that identity physically burned.
————-
This work is based off ‘The Canary Continuity” series by qolden. “Caged Lungs” is required reading for this fic. :)
Title from “Bird Song” by Florence + Machine… which is also a great listen post-fic (if you want to cry a lil’).

All Systems Locking Down by Caffinatedcastiel
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)
18 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
At the damning click of handcuffs around his wrists, the last 24 hours of Donatello’s life overlayed atop each other as he searched for when it all went wrong.
Moments ago, he was fighting tooth and claw against squadrons of riot gear equipped opponents. There were no identifiable details Donnie could glean from the fighters. Intentionally so, considering the nondescript vests and fully visored helmets. For a turtle that subscribed to a qualitative lifestyle, not being able to collect any further data was more than anxiety-inducing.

Blurred Timelines by Caffinatedcastiel
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)
19 Oct 2024

Summary
A flash of blue. Concerned voices. Underlaid with worry, but still reassuring and gentle.
“Hey there Junior. You’re going to be okay. I promise.”
Sensei? No… Leo? He couldn’t tell. It almost felt like Casey was hearing both versions of the slider at once, melted into an unnatural harmony.
Whumptober Day 4:
Hallucinations - hypnosis - sensory deprivation - “You’re still alive in my head.” -
A Battleshell so Hot You Could Fry an Egg on it! by Caffinatedcastiel
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)
19 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
Statistically the hottest part of the day was between two and four in the afternoon. There was more coming. Somehow more than Donnie’s current reality. Somehow more than the hell that was his plastron pressed flush with hot metal and glass, with his fingers curled tight between the gaps of a small metal grate and battle shell scalding his shoulders and back.

Donnie's Cursed Tenure as Leader of the Resistance by Caffinatedcastiel
Fandoms: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Cartoon 2018)
15 Jul 2024
Tags
Summary
“I have had enough of this. From both of you.” He hissed, the months of built-up tension reverbing through the statement. “You are both wrong. You both know you are wrong and you can’t get over yourselves long enough to see it. I’ve had enough!”
“Donnie-” “Dee-”
“No! NO! I’ve listened to you two going at each other for longer and harder than we’ve fought some of the individuals in this room- no offense.” Donnie snapped, nodding at a few bewildered faces that were unfortunate witnesses to their dirty laundry. Figurative and literal. “This can’t go on any longer. I will not allow it.”
------
During the first go-around with the Krang Invasion, Donatello rises to the occasion and takes his helm as leader of the Resistance. The Earth may be a burning ship, but he will do all he can to protect his brothers and the humans that come to rely on them.

Aftermath: The Song Remains the Same by Caffinatedcastiel
Fandoms: Supernatural (TV 2005)
14 Jun 2023
Tags
Summary
After Michael intervened with Anna and saved their parents, Sam and Dean returned to the hotel room they had stashed Castiel. Dean, of course, called first dibs on the shower, leaving Sam alone with the unconscious angel and his thoughts. Or, at least that is what he expected. What he had not anticipated was Castiel stirring, blinking his bleary eyes open, and letting out a pained groan as his sore body reminded him of the limits he had pushed to get them there

Summary
“Life and Death are deeply in love. Life gives Death gifts, and Death keeps them forever.”

Summary
Possessing Sam was meant to be a victory, an accumulation of all the work he had done over the last several months while he had been trapped in the decaying shell of Nick, the body only growing exponentially more frail and tattered the longer he was required to stay away from his true vessel. But when the much anticipated yes finally arrived, Sam Winchester standing defiant and headstrong before him, the experience was tainted.

Summary
As the search for Kelly hits a dead-end, Castiel and the Winchesters opt to investigate some nearby demon signs in the meantime. The unexpected appearance of a pissed pagan god elevates the stakes and Sam, Dean, and Cas are thrown into the spotlight of an unexpected war. Apocalypse 3.0 anyone?
