Pillow talk
Bay! Raph x gn! Reader
A little first time after math , mildy suggestive mdni, unedited , I really don’t like how I characterised Raph here so any constructive feedback is appreciated
The rain was viscous in its assault of the window pane, tiny torrents tapping meticulously , melodically. Acting as a lullaby to keep you in that delicious in between. You shimmied back on the bed until your back hit the hard grooves of your boyfriend’s plastron.
Still deep in sleep he Instinctively , possessively wound massive arms around you , nestling you further into him, lips smacking as he hooked his jaw on your shoulder. Inhaling deeply , breathing in the smell of you. on the exhale a rolling churr. The vibrations from his chest coiling up your spine.
Although his sleepy grip was firm, you could move. The brightening light paired with the bitter chill drifting in from the cracked window had you turning and retreating further into the mass of muscle, attempting to sap all his body heat greedily. He shifted to accommodate your movement’s, the dawning light beginning to draw him from his sleep. Although he did a very good ‘ im still sleeping’ impression.
You tucked your head up into the crook of his neck, legs tangling with his. Pressing a little peck to the scales that lay there. In a tit for tat manner he pressed a quick kiss to your forehead , arms closing around your new position. He rubbed his head against yours softly before settling with his chin resting on the crown of your head.
“ good morning.” You dared to break the comfortable silence first. You got a grunt in response but you could feel his lips quirk ever so slightly on your head. Not quite content to fein sleep anymore as he seemed so happy to, you gave his mid-section a playful squeeze. He returned with a half hearted squeeze , still with enough strength that encourage a soft giggle to bubble from your lips. That sound had him breaking into a rouge grin.
Pulling back to peer up at his face , he swiftly wiped the smile and continued to pretend to sleep. Boldly you leaned up and placed a chaste kiss to his scared lip. So soft and delicate. He returned gladly. Deepening the kiss , it was painstakingly slow and full of love. Lips moving against each other in a practiced perfected movement. His hand coming up to cradle your face, his fingers fanning across your neck and pulse point, his thumb resting on your chin. Delicious was the only word you could use to describe it.
He broke the kiss, ending it with a few well placed pecks before opening his eyes, half lidded with tiredness. Magnificent golden eyes catching the morning sun, his eyes trailing down and he just looked at you. Like, really looked at you, like he was committing every part of you to memory. Becoming shy you tried to say anything that would take the pressure off his undivided attention to you.
“ how’d you sleep? “ you almost squeaked, the words tumbling out too quickly. he just chuckled , a deep and pure sound. He could read you like a book by now. Amusement and pride swirling on his features as he shifted to prop his head under his arm . “ I slept great “ his voice riddled with a sleepy husk although the smile on his face was inequivicbly happy . The hand that was once cradling your face began to trace the shell of your ear lazily. “ how did you sleep?” He returned; souly to humor your need for conversation. As you thought , your mind travelled back to the night previously.
Immediately your face and skin felt too hot and you could just die with embarrassment. Last night had been the first time for your young budding relationship. And to put it short, he rocked your world. “ amazing “ you breathed. upon seeing your face heat up he heartily laughed, Cuteness aggression getting the better of him as he kissed your temple and pulled you back into him selfishly. you were happy for spotlight to be taken off your vivid blush. Raphael was never one for words in general so expect extra silence in the morning time. You didn’t mind it, you knew him inside out at this point, he was always like a humming ball of tense pent anger.
Now, he felt settled and content to enjoy the rest, to enjoy your body slotted against his and to simply bask in the glow that you emanated. It was almost meditation, last night had him feeling a sense of belonging , of security to know this all wasn’t a rouse, that you wanted him as much as he wanted you. All though he doubted the latter, with how he felt today he genuinely believed no one in the history of time ever loved someone how he loved you.
Distracting him from his train of thought you asked if he’d like coffee and his response was to tighten his grip on your waist, as if you leaving his side for simply five minutes was intolerable , You would be lucky if you left this bed today, not that you’d be complaining.
At long last
Bay! Leo x gn! Reader Drabble
Tooth rotting fluff
An- I haven’t wrote in years, I threw this together on a whim so hopefully it’s not terrible , unedited
I wrote this listening to gigi Perez be rude
You awoke with a slight start , just enough to form semi conscious words and to acknowledge who had disturbed your peaceful slumber. He shushed you quietly, determined not to sway you from sleep.
Groggy-ness still not quite ready to ebb away, eyes stinging as you fought to keep them open.
A great three digit hand delicately tucked a strand of hair behind your ear. Repeating the motion and caressing the side of your face with a feather light touch. A well practiced technique that he knew would lull you to sleep again.
Trying and failing to keep your eyes open , especially with the added comfort of his delicious caress.
“ I’m awake I swear” you mumble, leaning further into his touch and your eyes falling shut once more.
you are met with a hearty rumble , his hot breath fanning across your face. He kept up his administrations of affection, rising goose flesh in its wake.
“ oh are you now?” His deep voice never failed to rise the hairs on the back of your neck. You were happy to lap up his attention. Basking in his warmth like a cat in the summer sun. A simple incoherent mumble was all he got in return.
Whilst enjoying this touch you couldn’t help but wonder why you were fighting so hard to leave this warm gooey place. It dawned on you then , as sharp and stark as being doused with ice water. You had been like passing ships , you with work meetings, him with patrol. Life just kept happening and time spent together was few and far between. Tonight , both your schedules lined up for the first time in weeks. You had been so busy you had no idea how much that would catch up on you, until now.
Guilt added extra vigour to help stir you from your cozy in between. Upon opening your eyes you are met with devastatingly blue ones staring back at you. Soft and kind, molten almost. Amused even. The worry about him being upset that you had fallen asleep during date night immediately dissipating. Before you could get a word out his lip quirked into a crooked smile that made his dimple prevalent. It was painful how much you loved him And Still the need to apologise was still there.
“ if you even try to apologise “ he was quick to cut you off , as though he could see the gears of your mind turn.
Your ajar lips immediately shut , almost comically and another beautiful breathy rumble left his chest. There was a deep husk to his voice, a clear sign of sleep creeping up on the fearless leader too. That the time apart affected him as much as it had you.
He found another hair to tuck into place before his hand cradled the back of your neck, his thumb tracing patterns along your jaw. Blue mask already discarded , the lamps you had fallen asleep with on now switched off.
“ are you staying the night?” You tried not to sound too hopeful, trying and and failing to sound ‘ breezy’.
“ I am “ he concurred , shifting on his side to make himself comfortable beneath the covers , the dip in the bed bringing your body closer to his. He shifted you how he liked, his bicep becoming your pillow and his forehead settled against yours, slotting Together perfectly. legs tangling with his.
you knew he was comfortable when an audible sigh came from him and his shoulders visibly slumped, the tension melting away as he tucked himself into his happy place. The eldest leader bravado left at the bedroom door. Here he was just Leo.
When you opened your eyes again his were shut , the silvery glow of the moon cascading elegant shadows along the panes of his face. his chest steadily rising and falling , getting slower and slower as he began to drift off. You couldn’t help but whisper that you loved him , that you were so grateful for him. He responded that he loved you too without a minutes of hesitation. like it was a mantra he repeated to you over and over again , leaving no room for you to ever doubt him. He kissed your cheek like it was second nature and melted further into your embrace. The two of you drifting off to sleep basking in finally being together again.
Hello! How are you! I have literally binged all your work on ao3 in the space of a few hours! I am besotted!!! You write angst like it’s no one’s business!
Lucky me I see your requests are open!
Okay I was wondering if I could request 2007 or bayverse , either Raph or Leo with an established relationship!reader
who had a life altering event happen, ( for e.g being involved with the turtles got her in danger ) and the trauma completely changes her , she becomes cold, secretive ( bonus point if reader becomes vigilante to get revenge ) as a way to cope. how Would the turtles react to that? How would they mend their relationship?
up to you whether it’s straight up angst or angst to comfort!
I know this is a lot so please disregard this if it’s a bit out there, or take what you want from this and make your own spin! I’d frankly read your grocery list!
A/N: Hey there! 👋 Thank you so, so much for your incredibly kind words about my work! Hearing that you binged it and enjoyed the angst has really made my day 🥰
For this request, I’m going with Bayverse Raph. I hope you enjoy it! 💖
The Space Between a Touch (angst)
❤️ Bayverse Raphael/Female Reader ❤️
CWs: Angst, depictions of PTSD and trauma aftermath, past kidnapping, self-destructive behavior, light swearing, some violence and fighting. All characters are aged-up.
Now for my second request: I don't know if you're comfortable writing love triangles (the first one was kinda a triangle too but well…) but this time I would like a 2007 Raph x Reader x Leo where they both fall in love with her at the same time and she has to choose who to be with in the end (let's make their relationship in that movie even messier and with another thing to argue about! I love drama!😈). This triangle started before Leo went to South America but back then no one ever knew about anyone's feelings and they were all just acting like normal friends. Then Reader was just as disappointed and angry as Raph when Leo didn't want to come back and stopped sending them letters (the reader received also secret personal letters addressed only to her and Raph realizes from this that Leo might be interested in the Reader romantically just like him), and Raph and her got really close and bonded because of that. Reader was also the first one to find out that Raph is the Nightwatcher and offered her apartment as a second shelter when he wanted a place to sleep, be away from his brothers or just hang out with her. During this time Raph also thought about confessing his feelings to her but here comes Leo back from South America to complicate things again! (I love 2007 Leo just as much as 2007 Raph I promise, that’s why this is a love triangle. I genuinely can’t choose between them). I’ll let you choose how you want the story to end again (who will the Reader choose? Will Raph and Leo kill each other? Find out next episode lmao) and I apologize again if my English is not the best!
A/N: Oh-ho-ho *rubs hands together* I love myself a juicy, tense love triangle 😈 But ya’ll are getting both versions of the ending.
Enjoy! 💖

Thank you, sweetheart! That was my first request, so I’m really honored! I’ll do my best , let me know what you think!
Bayverse Raphael x reader
| agnst | confession | fight
Raphael didn’t belong in the light.
He was born in shadow, shaped by war and survival. Everything about him—his size, his face, his freakin’ existence—was built for battle. Not for soft things. Not for laughter. Not for you.
And yet, you were there.
Always there.
You started off as April’s friend. Someone from her past, someone smart and stubborn and too curious for your own good. And he’d hated you for that at first—your wide eyes, your easy friendliness, the way you looked at him like he was someone worth knowing.
He tried to avoid you. Tried to push you away with sarcasm and silence and every ounce of that hard shell he’d built to keep the world out.
But you never left.
You came back to the lair. You asked questions. You brought books and food and your dumb little playlist that Mikey became obsessed with. You laughed too loudly, fell asleep on their couch, danced around like the place belonged to you.
And somewhere along the way, you started belonging to him.
Not that he’d ever tell you.
Raphael didn’t have the right to want someone like you. You were light, he was stormclouds. You were soft edges, he was blades. If he touched you the way he wanted to—if he told you what he felt—it would ruin you. Pull you into the dark with him. And you didn’t deserve that.
So he stayed silent.
Watched you from a distance, memorizing your smile, your voice, your scent. Let his feelings rot in his chest like poison. Every laugh from you carved another crack in him. Every casual touch—your hand brushing his arm, your fingers in his bandana when you helped him fix it—felt like a blade under his skin.
And at night, when the others slept, he’d sit on the edge of the roof and whisper your name like a prayer and a curse. Don’t fall. Don’t hope. Don’t fucking dream.
But he dreamed anyway.
—————
It all came to a head on a cold, sharp night in November.
You showed up at the lair soaked from the rain, eyes red, voice shaking. Some guy you’d been seeing—some normal guy—had stood you up. And Raph hated how a part of him liked it. Hated how he had to fight the urge to punch a hole in the wall because he wanted to be the one to make you feel safe.
He didn’t say much. Just handed you a towel, let you rant, sat too close without meaning to.
Then you said it.
“Why can’t I just fall for someone who’s good for me?”
The words punched him in the gut. Because even you knew you wanted someone else. Someone better. Someone not him.
He snapped. “Maybe ‘cause you know you’d ruin it. Maybe that’s why.”
You looked at him like he’d slapped you. “What the hell does that mean?”
“It means stop lookin’ for something you ain’t meant to have,” he growled, standing. “People like you don’t belong with people like me.”
“And what kind of person are you, Raph?” you asked, voice low and shaking.
He didn’t answer. Couldn’t. Just stared, jaw clenched, pain flashing like lightning behind his eyes.
“I see the way you look at me,” you whispered. “Like you’re starving. Like you hate yourself for it. And I—”
You hesitated. Then took a step forward.
“I look at you the same way.”
Raph backed up like he’d been burned. “Don’t. Don’t say that.”
“Why? Because it’s true? Because if you admit you want me, you’ll have to admit you’re capable of being loved back?”
His fists shook at his sides.
“You think I don’t know what I am?” he snarled. “I can’t be what you want. I’ll wreck you. I’ll drag you down with me. You’ll end up hating me, and I won’t survive that.”
Your voice cracked. “Then stop pushing me away before I have to prove you wrong.”
Silence stretched between you like a blade.
And then—you stepped close again, slowly, like approaching a wounded animal.
“You don’t scare me, Raph,” you said softly. “You never have.”
Tears prickled behind his eyes. He turned his face away.
You touched his hand.
He didn’t pull back.
“You don’t have to stay in the dark,” you whispered. “Not with me.
Something in him broke
Not all at once—but enough.
His hand closed around yours, rough and trembling. His forehead dropped against yours. And he breathed—really breathed—for the first time in months.
“If you get hurt ‘cause of me,” he rasped, “I won’t forgive myself.”
“Then don’t let me go,” you whispered.
And he didn’t.
I have two requests, both with the Bayverse turtles. This is the first:
Leonardo x Female Reader.
Angst with a happy ending, hurt/comfort.
She is a vigilante like the turtles and they met while they were saving New York from yet another enemy, after this meeting they all became friends. Some time later all of them undertook another mission together where the Reader was seriously injured and Leonardo blames himself for it + Some introspection from Leo on the dangers of their job and how actually easy it is to lose the person you love forever. You can decide if they are already a couple or if they haven't confessed their feelings yet ;). Thank you so much in advance if you decide to write it!
A/N: Hey, anon! I ended up going with Leo and the reader having not yet confessed their feelings. I think I subconsciously wrote it that way as an excuse to inject more angst 😂 (Also, I hope this is a happy enough ending for you 😅)
Enjoy! 💖
Cost of the Fight (angst)
💙 Bayverse Leonardo/Female Reader 💙
CWs: Description of injuries, blood mention, near-death experience themes, anxiety/guilt, angst, hurt/comfort. All characters are aged-up.
Hey, I really love your work ❤️, I have a bit of a long one, and I'm sorry it's so longwinded, but I would really appreciate it if you did something with it. It's like an AU zombie universe but the future of the bayverse world they get transported to. So they get transported to the future where there are zombies, they go around a bit discovering and surviving, thinking its a different reality, when its actually the future, when they run into reader. Reader absolutely freaks out, and they think its because the fact they are mutant turtles. Then, future raph comes in because he's concerned for the reader, who is his best friend. He was upstairs, and she was downstairs in this house they were looking for supplies in. They are all surprised and shocked, and they get taken back to their base. A bunch of people live there, as the turtles kind of run somewhere like alexandria from the walking dead, and they meet future mikey, who is in charge of the gardens and farms and also a solider protecting this place and he has a one month old baby and a wife, future donnie who's a medic and is in charge of all the technical stuff while also ofc being a protecter and he has a wife that died and has adopted a kid whos 10 from the apocalypse, he could have a situationship going on or something like that. Future raph is a forager and has a gf for 2 years. All the turtles look older and worn down by the apocalypse, like, for example, raph is missing an arm. The present-day turtles find out that the reader was Leo's wife, who died protecting her and their adopted son, who's 4 now. Spliter died fighting the zombified shredder who bit him as the foot base was overrun by zombies. The rest is for interpretation but just like them living in the apocalypse with their future self while reader and their son feeling strange about the situation as leo died, and sort of treat leo like their husband/dad while also realizing it's not him. All the turtles are still ofc still grieving the loss of their brother, but Raph takes it the hardest and leo made them all promise to do everything to protect the reader and their son. Just mostly consisting of the turtles living the zombie apocalypse with their future selves and future partners, mainly focusing on reader and leo. Maybe it ends with the turtles going back to the Present and reader tells leo that he will meet his own present day reader, maybe some sort of scene where he recognizes a much younger version and rescues them.
A/N: Thank you so much for the compliment; it means a lot to me! 😊
I love writing horror, so I maaay have gone a bit overboard with the details/set-up for this request 😅 I really hope you enjoy it, anyway!
