    Summary

    “I know you’re a hallucination,” Zuko finally manages, “but is there any chance you could help me. Ummm.”

    What’s he even supposed to say? ‘Help me die properly?’ Even fake-Uncle looks all worried, and Zuko’s oxygenless heart can’t take it if he’s already been disappointment enough for all sixteen years of his life.

    And then he realizes.

    Somehow, the spirits decided they weren’t going to throw their worst gambit at him this time. No; somehow, the spirits decided they were going to send him into the past even after he’s already died.

    “Nevermind,” he says faintly. “I think I’m going to throw up.”

     

    or: the lionturtle imparted that should bending another’s energy fail, the soul will be corrupted. traveling backwards in time might offer an opportunity of sorts.

    Summary

    “Oh,” Zuko said. His voice came out very small.

    “What is it?” Jinora asked, slipping past the dragon’s elbow.

    “Ba Sing Se,” Zuko breathed. In all his years he never thought he’d see it again—not like it was then. He curled a wrinkled hand into the thickness of Druk’s fur. The dragon pressed his snout into Zuko’s neck.

    “It can’t be,” Jinora frowned. “I’ve been there before. It’s not that small, for one thing.”

    “It was,” Zuko said. “And I know why you don’t recognise it. It’s because it’s not your Ba Sing Se. It’s mine. The one from my youth.”

    Summary

    The day before he fought Ganon the first time, he’d visited all the people he’d come to know and all the Champions waiting for release. He had thought it would be the last time he’d ever see them. He’d even made peace with it.

    Now, that yesterday is nearing a month ago for Link, and he is so tired.

    “I did,” he says. “I went. Fought Ganon.”

    “— Did you have to retreat?”

    “…Didn’t fight it today. Five days ago. And ten. But also today.”

    Link defeats the Calamity. And then he faces it again and again and again and again—

    Summary

    “Michelangelo?”

    Mikey’s head snaps up like a rubber band, so fast it hurts his neck. His father is standing in the doorway, whole and unharmed and strong. He tilts his head, taking in the probably dumb way Mikey is just standing there staring up at him.

    He’s alive. In this moment, in this memory, he’s alive. But just a minute ago he was dying, he was choking on blood and then he was gone, and no matter how many times Mikey cried for him he didn’t come back.

    Mikey’s chest feels like it’s closing around all his squishy insides like a fist. It’s really hard to breathe in a way that isn’t just desperate gulping gasps for air, so he holds his breath. It’s a good and useful thing that aquatic turtles can do it for a long time.

    “I thought you and your brothers had left already,” the rat says mildly.

    “We did? I mean, uh, yeah, we did,” Mikey says. He watches Splinter’s expression tighten in tiny inscrutable ways, and knows he didn’t do a very good job of sounding normal. So he clears his throat and finds a lopsided smile and tries again. “I just had to come back for something.”

    Summary

    In the years following their brothers' deaths, Leo and Mikey are accidentally transported to a dimension mirroring their own, except here Raph and Donnie survived the apocalypse.

    Or

    Before future Mikey became the one we see in ROTTMNT the movie, he tried to hone his skills and accidentally got Leo and him stuck in 2012's universe, where Donnie and Raph both survived the Mutant Bomb and now wanders the wasteland trying to survive. Seeing alternate versions of your dead brothers certainly is weird, right?

    Summary

    Casey doesn’t think they’ll ever reach an argument they can’t wrestle out. They agree too much.

    April told him that was a problem once. He shrugged her off easily, because how could that go wrong? How could Casey Jones and Raphael Hamato go wrong?

    They couldn’t. Sometimes Casey thinks that’s all he really knows.

    Or, a relationship study on Casey and Raph because I love them so much.

    Leo cares for him as much as he can. Tracks him down when the bad feeling in Casey's chest feathers into a restless bird that keeps taking off for bar brawls and gang skirmishes and alleys that glint with secret knives.

    Another black eye. Another frantic police call.

    Leo never once faults him. Leo tries to teach him everything he knows. But Master Leonardo?

    Leonardo taught him to hunt.

    Summary

    ‘Go to Japan’, they said, ‘it’ll be a healing experience’, they said. Leo can’t quite remember whose idea it had been for this retreat, something about healing their minds and bodies after the invasion.
    How did that end with him almost committing vehicular manslaughter, making an unlikely friend at sword point, and undermining an underground yokai authority?
    Man, he just wanted to have one week where he didn't have to go through character development.

    Summary

    Casey Jones has done a lot of things. Heck, he’s even seen a lot of things. He’s touched a lot of things, too, things he probably shouldn’t have.

    A New York a mere echo of his own stands before him, crumbling beneath his feet. The dust tints the sky orange like an old western movie.

    Maybe he should’ve left that cube alone.

    He should really stop touching things that shouldn’t be touched.

    Summary

    The sound of the apocalypse is a pop number from 1968 by The Foundations.

    And that’s only because Raphael’s little brother didn’t have the common courtesy to get a decent punk-rock song stuck in his head on the day they fell into this hellscape in the first place.

    He’s just saying, The Clash or The Offspring or even Fall Out Boy would make more sense, like, thematically. Instead he’s stuck listening to—

    “WHY DO YOU BUILD ME UP! BUTTERCUP, BABY, JUST TO LET ME DOWN!”

    “Mikey,” he yells across the street, “I swear to GOD!”

    Indefinite Hiatus - Explanation in Recent Update

    “We do not know of your brothers, Great Spirit,” Zuko answered, stuttering more like it. “I’m sorry we could not be of more service.”

    The spirit frowned and stood up. “That’s weird, we were just together.”

    There was a shift and Uncle’s head came up. They stared at this strange spirit. It turned its back to them and Zuko was breathless at the show of disregard. Figures a spirit would not consider him a threat. He shouldn’t take it personally, but he’s been dismissed his whole life. He’s tired of it. A hand gripped his trembling one and he takes a breath. There is no use getting upset over the ways of a spirit. They both studied its small form and Zuko was caught by its profile. The spirit’s back held three repeating and somewhat glowing symbols. It curved in a familiar motion.

    “A turtle,” Uncle whispered.

    Summary

    Lou Jitsu died.

    He perished in the Battle Nexus, but that wasn't the end of it. An alchemist, Baron Draxum, not only revives him but uses his DNA to mutate four turtles in the process. The person formally known as Lou Jitsu decides he hates both of these ideas.

    So he takes the turtles and runs, only to quickly learn that being brought back from the dead does not come without some new iron shackles, forcing him to do some things he would really rather not.

    In truth he'd rather not stay at all, but he has four boys who need him, and as long as they do he refuses to leave the mortal plane.

    Unfortunately it's not all up to him.

    "Donnie. Donnie"

    Donnie scrunched his face. Not only was he dead tired with his face pressed uncomfortably against a keyboard (he would recognize the feeling anywhere), but someone must need something from him again.

     

    "Donnieeeee."

     

    But who did he know that had such an annoying voice?

    The Last Ronin survives the fight with Oroku Hiroto. He didn't expect that. He no longer can hear his brothers, and it makes him just a little bit lonely. One day, he finds an old laptop left behind by his late brother. On it is a single messaging platform, filled to the brim with other turtles from other dimensions. They were just like his brothers, yet so different…

    Why did his brother make such an invention? For what purpose did he intend for it? And why do these kids keep trying to get him to open up?

    Summary

    Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo wake up in a maze, a 'fun'house, a jungle, and a cage.

    They're surrounded by three other turtles— that aren't their brothers. Or at least not the brothers they know. Each group has a Leonardo, a Raphael, a Donatello and a Michelangelo, but none of them are from the same universe. Pitched together with counterparts of their brothers, the turtle teams have to figure out how to survive the tests their mysterious captors are putting them through.

    Easier said than done, for some groups. ('03 Mikey is realizing he is going to have to be the responsible one. Why does he have to be the responsible one?)

    With many questions, and not a lot of answers, four sets of mixed-up brothers set their sights on goals they can all agree on: figure out what's going on, stop it, and make whoever brought them here pay.

    And try not to strangle their brother's counterparts while they're at it.
