IKUD how does Mikey feel on the kids not being quads like him and his bros, additionally that Raphael is the oldest and that Leo and Donnie are the same age
It's weird for him for like! A week! Because he meets them when they're all freshly mutated and around the same size, but then Raph suddenly grows twice as big as the rest of them, and 2k12Mikey(Tee) is like ???? But Splinter calmy explains that he remembers Raph having already hatched before the rest of them, with little orange being the last one to hatch, right before they escaped, and it kinda throws Tee's whole world on a slanted axis.
But the few months following all them living together and learning the ropes of raising baby turtles, Tee comes to love the fact that they're all different species of turltes, and they all have their own little personalities that are sometimes the same but sometimes VERY different then what he's used to, and it helps ease some of the tension in Tee's chest about being around another iteration of his brothers. Its easier to breathe around the babies when he's not constantly comparing himself or his lost brothers to these perfect little gremlins he can carry in his arms all at once.
