Summary
"The grey of evening is lit up with daylight-brightness, brief as a nuclear flash, and it brings change, a shifting in the world. The white-hot burns colors into Splinter's eyes and they don't go away when he blinks, blue just turns purple, bleeds into red, brightens to orange, and among flashes of colors, he sees dragons."

Summary
"It's easy to forget where their body ends and the rest of the world begins, as if they don't quite fit in it yet. And it's deceivingly easy to forget where the edge of the bunk they share with Gwyn on the Infinity is and where the rest of the room starts and Zero remembers this only when they're falling, the pull of gravity much stronger than their still sluggish reflexes.
They fall, not on the hard floor between their bunk and Rok's, but landing on something soft instead. Something soft that groans and kicks them in the shin."
-
an exploration of Zero's brief corporeal existence in season 2 and of trying to find yourself

Summary
"There's nothing Crosshair can say in his head about what happened on Teth that sounds like something he himself would believe. Hunter and Wrecker won't either, he's sure of it.
"Tech... was stubborn," he says instead, the word *was* dragging slowly and uncomfortably on his tongue like he's hauling along something heavy. Like a corpse."-
a useless sniper, a grieving sister and a disgruntled, amnesiac assassin who's desperately trying to piece together his former life. and they are on a collision course.

forever is the sweetest con by coffeejellyenthusiast

Summary
In which Raph realizes he has not actually overcome all of his trauma via exposure to an alien bug planet, Mikey tries to help, Donnie fixes everything but his own mental state, Splinter tries, and Leo gives unsolicited advice.
OR
My take on "The Insecta Trifecta" and Raph's flashback episodes. Healing is not linear - Mikey and Raph make take some steps back and learn how to get back up again. (Takes place after "over and over" and during season 4).

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.

Run, run, get away (Don't freak out, it's just rain) by ItzZaira

Summary
Currently, Leo was lying in his bed, dozing off to the sound of the rain. Tip, tap, tip tap, tip, tap- the rain had only gotten worse and worse, pouring from the skies above and almost 'angrily' pounding down the windows. It was soothing, in some way. Very nice to listen to. Succesfully silencing his thoughts, his worries- all there was was the rain. Peaceful, nice rain. Maybe he should see if Donnie could install rain sounds on his shell phone later? It seemed to help him get sleepy a lot, and if everyone else could sleep this peacefully every night-
BOOM!
He was wide awake at once.
Or
Never having been topside during a thunderstorm before, ninja instincts kick in as soon as they get woken up by the first flash of white.

Summary
Raphael hadn't even been aware that he had been hyperventilating until a hand on his shoulder made awareness snap back to him at once.
Through blurry vision, he made eye contact with Leo.
Fuck fuck fuck you woke him up the guy already has insomnia, great job Raph, just fucking great-
"Deep breaths, little brother." Leo spoke gently, not even asking what he was doing there. He reached out to take a hold of Raph's hands to stop him from punching air. "Deep breaths. It's okay."
Oh he knew that look.
Raph growled again and attempted to pull away- he didn't need to be treated as if he was made of glass, he was tough, he was the brawn, he- his knees buckled.
The oldest caught him before he could fall, then carefully lowered him onto the floor. "I got you." He whispered. "I got you."
Or
After a nightmare about the eldest brother sacrificing himself wakes him up in a panic, Raph can't admit to himself that maybe, he should seek comfort before he wakes up everyone else.
