I'm so sorry about your breakup :( All the best♡
How do you think the turtles + April, Splinter and Casey would help a friend get over smn/get through a breakup? Preferably headcanons bc i have an attention span of like -3 seconds and they're short hhdjsjdnndnx
Thank you. It’s been a rough couple of days, but I’m starting to get better. :)
I usually only do up to four characters, but I’ll make these shorter than normal and do all of them.
I think Leo would give you space, but the second you hint that you want to open up, he’s right there.
Even if you go the “I need to be alone” route, you’ll ‘coincidentally’ find things in your room that you’ve wanted or would be therapeutic for you. (Think a beanbag to throw at the wall or a coloring book.)
If you open up, prepare to feel 10x better afterward. Leo’s not the leader for nothing- he’s amazing at pep talks.
Mikey is, per usual, a ball of sunshine about it.
He can see how much it’s affecting you, and he feels terrible about it, so expect a lot more hugs and shared pizzas when you’re at the lair.
To him, it’s easier to get over someone when you’re having fun.
I can see Raph helping the most through the anger portion- whether that’s being angry at your ex or just angry in general.
You’re always welcome to work out with him. (And if you spar, he’ll let you win by a hair to feel more confident. But he’ll never admit it.)
And of course, he’s open to just talking with you about it. He may be a hot-head, but he’s still an older brother at heart.
When it comes to Donnie, be prepared to see a Therapist Turtle in action.
You don’t have a conversation with him for the next two weeks without him mentioning how amazing you are, how you’ll be able to find someone else (if you want to, of course), how you’ll make it out okay, and just a whole lot of Inspiring Quotes.
It was annoying at first, but once you start to let yourself believe him, the more you cherish those moments.
April is the ultimate emotional support.
You’re angry at your ex? FUCK THEM! You don’t think you can find anyone else? HELL YEAH YOU CAN! YOU’RE PRETTY AS FUCK!
You have a dance party with her at least twice a week. They may be cheesy, but they’re the best fun you’ve had for a while and a nice distraction.
Splinter is tracking you down the instant he learns you’re going through a breakup.
When he finds you, he forces a cup of your favorite tea in your hands and starts his speech.
It’s a bunch of “it may hurt, but it will pass” and “it’s normal to grieve, even though they aren’t dead”.
Will also let you cry in his shoulder
Honestly, Casey avoids you.
He’d like to help, but he doesn’t know what to say, or if him being there would even help you.
If you let him know you’d like to talk to him, prepare yourself for the most heartfelt things Casey has ever said to anyone. There are many points where you wonder if they’re even the same person.
If anyone brings this up later though? Psh, it wasn’t that big a deal! Shut up!
