    Summary

    There are no patchwork blankets draped over the back of the couch, no rugs or ottomans or table-runners, no handmade socks for when the cold nights start growing teeth. Raph’s an active knitter, but his home is filled with hard corners, and the bags of yarn under his punching bag are still overflowing.

    Raph isn't quite used to stability.

    Summary

    “While I can understand why a wave of short-circuiting neurons in your brain might seem like the most logical explanation for this,” Donatello says, which makes goddamn one of them, “I can promise you that this is real. You fell through a portal in Brooklyn.”

    “A portal?” Blue asks. “A yellow one?”

    “Yeah! You remember?” Mikey says brightly.

    “I remember the light,” he replies slowly. He sets his cup down, and his hand drifts over to the crumpled-up photo sitting on the cot beside him. He doesn’t lift it or look at it, he just sets his hand on it, like he’s taking strength from its existence. “It was so dark and cold, and then the sun came out. I think I reached for it. I don’t know how I ended up here.”


    Rise!Mikey's portal in the prison dimension takes Leo a little bit farther than he meant for it to. 03!Raph is beginning to wonder if he and his brothers will ever have a normal day, like, ever.

    Summary

    A quick slip-up on patrol was all it took for Leo to find himself in his current situation: cuffed to a sturdy metal pillar in the back corner of a dingy warehouse and being interrogated by the Purple Dragons for his family’s whereabouts.

    Raph was never gonna let him live this down.

    Summary

    Have you ever wondered what happened to Donatello that caused him to vanish and start the apocalypse in Same As It Never Was? Well so did I! And so this was born.

    Donatello makes a huge mistake by sticking his beak somewhere it doesn't belong. See him traverse a landscape and building like no other and hope that he finds the light at the end of the tunnel. Maybe curiosity won't kill this turtle!

    Summary

    Out for a late night run, Leonardo happens upon a squadron of Foot ninja and brings home a souvenir: an arrow buried in the back of his leg. Instead of waking someone up to help him with the awkwardly-placed wound, Leo decides to take care of it by himself. What's a little self-surgery in the early hours of the morning?

    Summary

    Raphael has promised to help Mrs. Morrison move some furniture, and the fact that he got his shell kicked the night before is irrelevant as far as he's concerned. Leo has a little something to say about it, but brothers are easily brushed off. A maternal figure like Mrs. Morrison, on the other hand, commands a bit more respect.

    Summary

    Agent Bishop knew entirely too much about the turtles for someone who had not previously met them—Donatello wants to know how. The Occam's Razor theory tells us that the simplest answer is usually the correct one, and Donnie thinks he's found it. The only problem is that it's the middle of the night, and he still hasn't slept since escaping from that underground lab.

    Summary

    Sacrifice was necessary. Death was inevitable.

     


    Those were the lessons he was taught, though they hardly mattered anymore. Nothing could justify what happened. Nothing could make up for the fact they were dead at the hands of a war they never wanted to fight, leaving no one but the youngest alive to finish the job they had started together.
    ---

     


    In the Last Ronin, each brother dies and wakes up in the afterlife, being greeted by the ones that fell before them while having to wait for the ones that have yet to arrive.

    Summary

    Mikey struggles through breakfast. The four infant turtles babble away at each other, voices overlapping and Mikey grips his cereal spoon so hard he feels it press bluntly into the palm of his hands, no doubt leaving harsh indentations across his skin.

    Even eating seems to make it worse, as he slowly moves his jaw in languid circles to chew his food, it’s like an explosion working its way up his skull each time.

    He gets a quarter through his own bowl before he’s sharing it out amongst his children.

    Odyn doesn’t question it, Moja and Yi are apprehensive at first but Uno is entirely hesitant.

    “Are you not hungry, papa?” He asks once Mikey has scraped his share into his awaiting, empty bowl. He’s already up out of his seat and turning to start the dishes when he pauses.

    He steadies himself on the edge of the counter with one hand.

    “Eat,” Mikey tells him softly. “You wanna be big and strong like papa, no?”

    And that usually works on all four of his children, but Uno doesn’t look entirely convinced as he shovels in the first spoonful of Cheerios.

    Summary

    He looks over his shoulder from his place in the middle of the pit. Leo’s head rests on Raph’s shoulder, his face so peaceful and so welcoming of slumber that Mikey wonders how long it'd been since he'd last rested. Raph’s head lolls backwards, propped by the back of the sofa, his arms crossed even as he dozed.

    They share a blanket, but they’re not tangled in each other’s limbs and they don’t melt into each other like they used to. Their touch is something stiff and careful like they don’t know if they’re welcome in each other’s arms. A fragment of what they used to be, and even that seemed to be coming apart. They yell more and talk less.

    OR

    The turtles all cope with the death of the father in different ways. Luckily, they all have each other and they begin to discover how much of Splinter is left in each of them.

    Summary

    Shedder and his Foot ninja nearly killed Leonardo. They left him battered and scarred physically, mentally, and emotionally. His brothers try their best to raise his spirits and help him recover while they are at the farmhouse. They quickly come to the startling realization that Leo has not been okay for a long time, and the invasion only made him worse. They may have saved their brother from the brink of death, but can they help him want to live?

    I suck at summaries lol. This is set after the Season 2 finale and during Season 3, but I am not going into all the storylines they had during that time. I am an independent gal who wishes to give my boy in blue trauma and a realistic response.

    How would they handle ending up in an entirely new world?
