Ficfinder finds: Empathy Amplified
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
Rottmnt Fanfic Summary: It was cold. Bone chillingly cold. Mikey wanted someone to reach out and hold him.
He didn’t deserve to be held.
What?
Finally, Mikey could breathe. He craved the sweet relief of oxygen coursing through his veins.
But the breathing was too fast. It was too fast and Mikey couldn’t stop it and- it didn’t sound like him. He didn’t sound like Mikey.
He didn’t feel like Mikey.
He felt fear.
He heard nothing.
He smelled copper.
Heck, he tasted copper.
And he wished he didn’t see.
But he did. And he saw the Kraang. Worse, the Kraang saw him. It’s eyes could shoot straight through Mikey’s skull with how intently it was staring.
Wait, it wasn’t just staring.
It was targeting.
And Mikey was hit with a tidal wave of fear and loss and horror and regret and
relief?
OR Mikey’s always been one to shoulder his brother’s pain. What happens when the family therapist begins to experience mystic empathy? New powers plus old habits die hard.
Empathy Amplified: Appraisal and Ratings
(Don't know what fanfic "Appraisal and Ratings" means? Check out my explanation on my Main Masterpost! Looking for a different fanfic to read? Head on over to my Fanfic List Masterpost!)
Disclaimer: This fanfic is written by @filsa-mek who is such a fun and quirky writer!! Go check them out!!
The fanfic ratings are not based on quality, favoritism, or how good I think it is, but rather, how intense a subject may be. Like a movie review, or the tags on Ao3, letting the readers know what to expect.
"Plot is four out of five!! The plot for Empathy Amplified is engaging, and goes up and down in waves of intensity. Some parts are calming, while other parts are intense and wild!! The plot is such a unique and fun one, very Mikey suited, as this is a Mikey centric fic ^^"
"Suspense/Mystery is three out of five!! I'd say while this fanfic does have a wonderful amount of suspense and mystery to it, its not so intense that you'll constantly be on the edge of your seat. At first, mystery is really a big part of the plot, as you won't know what's going on, then around a quarter in, some questions will be answered, leaving just that amazing plot to follow!!"
"Angst/Hurt is four out of five!! The angst in this fic is very emotional centered (though don't get me wrong, there's plenty of physical angst as well). The angst and hurt comes and goes in waves of intensity, with some chapter being calmer, while other are heart wrenching!!"
"Fluff/Comfort is five out of five!! While this fic has plenty of angst and hurt to it, it also has plenty of fluff and comfort to pair with it!! For every sad moment, is a gentle hug, or a soft reassurance!! A beautiful blend of comfort and hurt!!"
"Emotions Conveyed is three out of five!! This fanfic doesn't lean very heavily into the disturbing, or incredibly depressing, sides, not influencing ones mood very much. It brought numerous smiles out of me, along with many a frown of concern. A good fic to read when you're looking for a riveting plot, that won't totally mess with your head and emotional state. A very good in between!"
Drama/Tension Level: 💛💛💛💛🖤
"Drama/Tension Level is four out of five!! The drama in this fic, is very Mikey centered, as it does happen to be a Mikey centric fic! The drama is dramatic, and attention capturing, pulling you in to see what happens next!! Some tension happens later on between Mikey and his brothers though I can't say why as that's story plot ^^"
"Triggers are three out of five!! While nothing is graphic in this fic, it does explore some more depressing mental health topics, along with a variety of injuries. Most if not all the chapters do include a TW at the beginning. Read the tags to stay safe!!"
Legibility (Reading): 💛💛💛💛🖤
"Legibility (Reading) is four out of five!! A wonderful read, easy to follow along with, and fun to read!! The writing style is bouncy in its own way!!"
Legibility (Audio): 💛💛💛💛💛
"Legibility (Audio) is five out of five!! Empathy Amplified is an amazing fanfic to listen to!! I listened to each chapter!! The way this fanfic is written, compliments audio book formatting quite a lot!!"
"Length is three out of five!! Empathy Amplified has a chapter count of 26 chapters, and a word count of 61.5k words!! Along with that, each chapter runs slightly on the shorter side, making this fic a somewhat quicker read ^^"
