Hi, it’s the karai anon, can I request a fic where it’s a 2012 Karai (mutated) x fem!Reader where the reader tries to help Karai come to terms with her mutation or where Karai wants her gf to meet Splinter?
I only do gender neutral reader. Hope that's okay :)
You rubbed Karai's back trying to ease some of her tension. She wanted to talk about something tonight but she'd had a fight with the turtles against the Purple Dragons right before and now she was in sore. You knew the transformation between human and snake mutant was uncomfortable and that she was judged because she could switch back and forth. Because she had it "easy." You could kind of understand where the turtles and April were coming from but still... It took a long time for her to have control and the others just didn't seem to realize that.
She went through a lot of pain and so much of it alone. Your glad she has you now and that she's learning to trust others. To share her pain. That she no longer hated looking in the mirror and that she was learning to love her snake form just as much as you do.
"How do you always know my sore spots?" Karai questions quietly as you begin to move away from her back and start massaging her tense shoulders.
"I just do." Karai chuckles and nods in agreement as you snort. Smiling at her playful side you respond by giving her neck a kiss. She giggles scrunching her shoulders at the sensation and you smile seeing her so happy.
"Thankyou..." She murmers and you hum nuzzling into her neck.
"Of course." You respond. Anything for her, you loved her with all your heart.
"You know I was thinking..." Chuckling knowing she's starting the talk she wanted too earlier and that she's about to say something crazy she suddenly takes your hands in hers making you pause. Her fingers gently knead your knuckles and you realize this is serious. "I want you to meet them." Panic in your eyes Karai kisses your knuckles trying to get you to calm down as you take in her request.
"A-are you sure?" You question voice cracking at the suggestion. Sure you'd heard all about Karai's family from Karai but you'd never met them. At least not yet.
Both of you were nervous to take that first step but now you were terrified. What if Hamoto Yoshi disapproved? You'd done some unsavory things before you'd met Karai. She had too but he could forgive his daughter, could he forgive you?
Looking at Karai searching for any signs of discomfort or hesitation she smiles at you. Squeezing your hand you smiled back although it was a bit shaky. She was sure. She was ready to take that step.
"... Okay." You agree smiling as you look at Karai. Karai looks back at you with tender eyes before she turns and pulls you into a hug. Hugging back you hold her close.
Maybe someday you'd be lucky enough to call yourself a Hamato.
