Leonardo had been so homesick these past two years that it just became another ache in the pit of his chest that he learned to live with. He had never once considered the idea that his little brothers were homesick for something too.

Summary
“I don’t think I’m ever gonna stop dreaming about it,” Mikey continues, after a long pause.
Leo doesn’t bother to ask what it is, because it’s something different for each of them. He doesn’t ask, because he doesn’t have to.

Summary
Reality hasn’t quite sunk in yet, he thinks.
It’s not until he takes a step back, not until his foot crunches on something hard and triangular, that the sheer weight of what’s happened crashes down on him. His body is trembling, his stomach churning, and there’s a hot stinging pain behind his eyes as he lifts his leg to get a look at what he just stepped on.
It’s no bigger than a bottle cap. Could be some bit of debris, but no, it’s caked in blood and patterned with an unmistakable texture. The little piece of shell is like a knife—it even drew a bit of blood from the bottom of his toe. And dammit, it’s not the only piece. He’s standing in a minefield of shattered turtle shell.
Raphael thinks he might puke.
---
IDW Raphael reflects on his relationship with his genius brother, who's facial expressions leave something to be desired.

Summary
Before Loki Odinson came his namesake: Loki Laufeyson, blood brother of Odin, locked away in a prison suspended in the void for his part in Baldr's death.
At least, until a means to escape his confinement falls in after him.
Thor keeps missing the subtle emphasis when Loki insists he isn't his brother.
Or: the one where Hela isn't the only family member that Odin banished and buried, the original Loki is back for revenge, and the Loki we all know has to team up with the Guardians of the Galaxy to stop him.

The Legend of Zelda: The Triforce Awakens by sillylildude

Tags
Summary
A knight destined to spend his entire life locked away in a tower, guarding his Kingdom's most precious relic. A Princess forbidden from practicing magic for fear of her overwhelming power. A sorcerer who once held high esteem in the Hyrulean court, scheming to take back that which he believes rightfully belongs to him. The fate of Hyrule rests in the hands of these three, entangled by the desire for power, the eternal fight between good and evil, and the bonds of a mysterious, divine power.
Alternate summary: I got inspired to write my own take on the 1989 Zelda cartoon.

“You can’t just call me bambino and not tell me what it means!” Wind protests, his energy renewed with vigor in light of Legend’s teasing.
“Who’s gonna stop me? You?” Legend ruffles his hair in good nature, grinning when Wind yelps and slaps his hand away. His pout grows as he attempts to fix the unruly mess of hair into just a mess of hair. “I don’t think so.”Bookmarked by beetlebugdotexe

Summary
“Welcome home, my sons, and—” Splinter's whiskers perk forward abruptly as two more purple-masked heads emerge from the water. “—my sons?”
“Long story,” Donnie says, shaking some of the water from his boots. “Short version goes something like this: mysterious bad guys, creepy abandoned warehouse, experiments with alien technology, portals to other dimensions, encounters with alternate selves, alternate selves in mortal peril, yada yada yada, alternate selves pulled into home dimension in Hail Mary pass to keep matrix of known multiverse from collapsing, unfortunate twist of circumstance trapping said alternate selves here for the time being.”
“Plus,” Mikey adds, “these dudes were getting the short end of the ninja stick from our douchebag alternate selves, and we really, really thought they’d be better off with us.”

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
Raphael has ALL his brothers, just not in the same place. In a wrenching tragedy, Raphael’s world is ripped into two pieces. Pulled back and forth between two different realities, one with Leo and Donnie and another with Mikey and Donnie, can he keep his grip on each?
****************************************
And then Raph was in the air, and he had—he had—timed it right. He was reaching for Leo and Mikey, and they were reaching for him, arm in arm. Their hands stretched up to where he now flew above them, their eyes trusting—even in this pepto-bismol colored nightmare. They had this just like they had always had each other. Just like they had never, never failed. Not when it mattered. Not in these moments. He would use his momentum and pull them to safety. It would be a hard landing, he knew. A crash landing. It would hurt. But they’d be hurt together, and then laugh about it and groan and complain and go home.All he had to do was grab their hands.

Summary
Legend is used to transformations. Curses, clingy items, rings; he's no stranger to changing his form. Waking up alone in an unfamiliar place? Also not the first time. But he's been transformed again and this time he doesn't know how it happened or how to change back.
He hasn't even had a chance to get his fins under himself when he's found by men who deal in oddities and, for all intents and purposes, taken prisoner.
How will he get out of this? Where are the others?

Summary
During the episode "Same As It Never Was," Donatello feels himself being summoned home. He can hear his father's frantic call and see his flickering silhouette. He reaches out, desperate to return, but something blocks him. He wakes up two days later to a funeral invite and one very burnt arm. He was going home... what stopped him?
Joined by a battle-hardened April and a salamander warrior grieving the loss of her partner, Donatello sets off in search of a way home. There's something trapping him here in this nightmare world, and they will stop at nothing to find it.
Feedback welcome! I love me some criticism.

Summary
“Mikey?”
Michelangelo doesn’t answer, standing alone in the shadows. Leonardo moves to place a hand on his shoulder but pulls his hand back when the youngest screams in utter terror, his eyes wild and staring at the space around them. It’s a sound that haunts them all to their core, ringing over and over and Mikey keeps screaming and sobbing, begging for something they can’t understand. The fungi quickly latches onto his face, mushrooms digging into his eyes, across his shell -
“Mikey!” Raph yells but Mikey doesn’t hear them, lost in his own nightmare and unable to defend himself as the mushrooms consume his face completely. Instead, they can only watch helplessly as Michelangelo gets dragged into the darkness.~
A mysterious infestation of fungi in the sewer system of their old home causes the turtles to each become trapped in the own never-ending nightmares. Imprisoned in the dark caverns and the last one standing, Leo must battle his own fears if he stands a chance of saving his brothers before they are all consumed by their own terror.
~
TLDR: remember that 2012 episode with the fungus? I rewrote that for 2003, but much darker.

Summary
Five years into his self imposed exile on Tattooine, Obi-Wan Kenobi is gifted the chance to go back and bring hope back to the galaxy.
With hindsight on his side, he fully intends to save his master, save his padawan, make some new and old friends again, prepare the Jedi for a war they’ll hopefully never see and begin to pull apart all the many tangled threads of the Sith Lord’s plans.
Should be relatively easy. Right?
