For Science, Of Course (fluff)

💜 2012 Donatello/Female Reader 💜

CWs: None. All characters are aged-up.

A Bayverse Turtles character study. Enjoy!

Leonardo

Leo is a light sleeper. White-noise doesn’t bother him, but sudden movements or little noises indicating something is moving will jerk him awake. 

He’s quick to fall back asleep if he finds everything to be alright. 

He is a very quiet and still sleeper. 

Leo has a single pillow and blanket for his bed. It’s easy to make in the morning, and he’s never thought of a reason to have more. (Leo knows he’ll cuddle the second pillow. And big strong leaders don’t cuddle second pillows).

Leo struggles to fall asleep outside the lair because the paranoia of keeping everyone safe and alive easily trumps anything in Leo’s life, especially sleep. 

At the lair he prefers his bed every single night, because not sleeping in his bed could mess up his routine. Which he hates. 

Not a napper. He thrives in routine, and also is strictly self-disciplined. He won’t let himself nap unless he really REALLY has nothing else to do. Which is rare. He is always trying to stay busy and productive. True Virgo.

Has bouts of sleeplessness. Opposite of Donnie. Once every several months he’ll be unable to sleep for a couple days due to stress. 

Donatello

Nobody knows how this guy is even alive.

Donnie rarely sleeps. 

Even in the middle of the day you’ll find Donnie drawing or on a computer of some kind either doing something cybersecurity wise, researching or just playing videogames. 

When Donnie does finally fall asleep, it’s almost never in his own bed. Donnie has a cot in the lab; and a hammock in the garage. He’s more often found in one or the other.

Donnie's naps are when the exhaustion hits him out of nowhere.

Once every couple months he literally has a 24+ hour coma. NOTHING except maybe the end of the world will wake him. 

The guys have to make sure he eats and drinks, because Donnie forgets to, often. 

Donnie can lock into the flow state for days, so during these times he can be sincerely startled by what time or day it is. 

It’s a serious struggle to talk him into bed. He’s an insistent, stubborn fucker, often using family safety as an excuse. Don’t let him win. 

Donnie is the heaviest sleeper of the family, and can fall asleep anywhere. You can find him asleep in his lab chair often, his head tiled back and mouth slack, his glasses hanging almost off his face. 

Also he’s the only talker. He mutters and twitches in his sleep. It’s always fucking nonsense. It’s rare, but sometimes you CAN have a full blown conversation with him. 

Raph

Chronic sleep apnea.

His family makes fun of him for it

Raph's snoring is crazy loud. He’s a big guy

Raph is sleeping all the time. Constantly tired. Constantly underrested. 

Extremely deep sleeper. 

But he won’t sleep through alarms he knows are coming. 

Raph doesn’t twitch or move while he sleeps. Sometimes that's a problem, if you can’t get him to wake up and move. 

Raph runs super duper hot. He’s a big guy, and the coldbloodedness did not survive the mutation. He doesn’t need a blanket to fall asleep. 

Raph uses tons of pillows for support. His shell and joints need it and hes a cuddly guy. He likes the comfort of support and holding something to his chest.

Raph can forget to make his bed, but he’s way neater than Donnie and Mikey. He has certain spaces he does prefer to be organized and clean. The bed isn’t always one of those spots. 

Raph can fall asleep anywhere, but staying asleep can be difficult if his breathing is blocked off so badly it is stopped all together in his chest or neck. Can snore himself awake. 

Raph's not a morning person and he isn’t really a night owl either. If he isn’t doing something active or adrenaline inducing, he’s a pretty sleepy guy. His naps aren’t daily but they are way way more often than anyone else in the family. 

Michelangelo

His mind is very active and vivid, and consequently suffers from the worst nightmares out of all of them. 

He doesn’t talk about it, but he struggles to fall asleep and stay asleep because of them. 

If the dream was bad enough, he’ll get up and start simple exercise or stretches in the dojo, or go for a run. Has learned to just deal with it. 

He learns this when he ages, but Mike has a type of personality that thrives in routine, so a nap can throw off the rest of the day. Mike tries his best to keep that from happening. But sometimes he just can’t help it. . 

But Mike is actually good with staying awake all day. Is a lot like Leo, except instead of working to be purely ‘productive’, Mike works to stay occupied.

Mike likes exercise and sports. He actually enjoys training with his brothers, it gets him in that flow state. Video games also do this. He has countless hobbies as well. They all do. 

Thought I'd come by and just say hello! And also ask if you'd be willing to give some relationship headcanons for Mikey and/or Raph? If that hasn't been requested yet. Thanks!

ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁 .ᐟ BAYVERSE!RAPHAEL DATING HCS

ᯓ★ lots of fluff, jealousy things (angst maybe), reader goes by she/her pronouns! (This is so late— im sorry—)

Is the definition of mean to the world but sweetest to his girl

The most common scenario is this: He could be talking to Casey and just be saying a bunch of mean shit to him but the moment you approach him to ask him something, he softens his tone and looks at you, narrowed brows with a concerned look as if you're the most fragile thing in the world.

He actually thinks you'll break if he raises his voice at you.

Casey has made fun of him many times for this but drops it each time Raph threatens to hit him.

He calls you babe. That's it.

Sometimes baby girl if he's feeling brave.

You happen to picked up the habit of stealing his things. Or in your words 'borrowing'.

"Uhhh babe... Where's my glasses?"

He's not complaining since it's been the norm for you to wear his glasses out in the open when you go to work or such.

He likes to think its a way of you having a part of him everytime you're away.

But theres no denying that the two of you guys argue every now and then.

Its not that you want to but he just jumps to conclusions very fast. He does try to control it but sometimes his heart speculates faster than his mind thinks.

Like the time he dropped you off at your place and because of how exhausted you were, you failed to notice him leaning in to give you a goodbye kiss when you walked off.

That ruined his self-esteem for sure.

He really thought you didn't love him anymore and he was too afraid to ask you about it.

It was when you noticed him sulking that you finally confronted him.

He's definitely a physical touch kind of man.

He CANNOT keep his hands off of you. NO. NA-DA.

You need the whole world to pry his hands off of you.

His favourite thing to do is to have you in bed where he just wraps his arms around your waist while he rests his head on your stomach. It makes him feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

He has jealousy problems.

He doesn't mind if you're close with his brothers because technically you're part of the family but with Casey or Vern?

Yeah no.

I mean there are boundaries to things.

Casey is smart enough to know not to try anything (in front of Raph) but Vern never gets the hint.

Has tried to get you to go on 'exclusive dinners' but you always said no because you knew how weird the guy was.

Nearly got beaten to shits by Raph if Leo wasn't there to stop him.

Has definitely done the bicep ribbon trend with you. How you were in awe from the way the ribbon elegantly untied itself around his bicep when he flexed his muscles made him feel all prideful of himself.

Never slacks off when working out.

He does enjoy kisses but he gets all awfully shy when you do it in public.

Like if you ever do kiss him in front of his brothers, even a simple peck on the cheek, he would not be able to face them for a moment.

He blushes hard and needs time to calm down.

He loves it soooooooo much when you dress up.

It doesn't matter what your style is because everytime you put in the effort to get all dressed up for date nights. He goes absolutely berserk.

Compliments your looks on a daily basis.

Doesn't matter if its your lazy day where you look a mess.

You're still irresistible to him.

Loves to keep the little things you leave in his room.

Either its your lip gloss or hair tie. He keeps it safe in his drawers just so it doesn't go missing or that you may need it later.

Yes he does sniff your hair tie.

It's only instinct since your hair smells so good.

Yes, the foot clan has kidnapped you a few times and it's ridiculous how many times it has happened. You fell for the homeless person trick AND the stray cat strategy.

All this effort just to ask you to spill any inside information to them.

Like just imagine you tied to a chair as Karai threatens to kill you but you're just wondering how long is it gonna take this time for the brothers to track you down.

Being thrown into this lifestyle is not for the weak.

But eventually you get saved all the time. Just imagine Raph removing the restraints around your arms with a regretful look.

"Sorry baby, I should've protected you better. I promise to keep you safe"

Cue to the next time happening again.

April had brought you into the lair one night, insisting you’d be a valuable addition to the team. At first, Donnie thought you’d be like anyone else, but then he saw you.

Your bright, pastel-colored outfit caught his attention immediately, a stark contrast to the dim, industrial tones of the lair. And then there was your hair—long, flowing, and streaked with colors so vibrant it almost looked like a prism.

“Is your hair... naturally like that?” Donnie asked before he could stop himself.

You laughed, brushing a strand behind your ear. “Nope! It’s dyed. I like to stand out, you know?”

Donnie blinked, unsure how to respond. You certainly stood out, that was for sure.

He quickly learned there was more to you than your eye-catching appearance.

One of the first things that caught him off guard was your strength. During a training session, Donnie watched in stunned silence as you easily lifted a heavy training dummy and hurled it across the room.

“Impressive,” he muttered, adjusting his eyes to make sure he wasn’t seeing things.

You grinned, wiping sweat from your brow. “Thanks! I’ve always been a bit on the stronger side.”

“A bit?” Donnie repeated, incredulous.

“Okay, maybe a lot,” you admitted with a wink.

Donnie didn’t say anything, but he made a mental note to measure your strength later—purely for scientific purposes, of course.

Then there was your appetite.

One evening, Donnie walked into the kitchen to grab a snack and found you sitting at the table with Mikey, the two of you demolishing an entire pizza.

“Wow,” Donnie said, raising an eyebrow. “I didn’t think anyone could keep up with Mikey’s eating habits.”

You swallowed a mouthful of pizza and smiled. “What can I say? I love food!”

Mikey laughed, nudging you playfully. “Don’t worry, D. Y/N’s got a black hole for a stomach like me!”

Donnie couldn’t help but chuckle, shaking his head. “Of course...”

Despite your quirks—or maybe because of them—Donnie found himself intrigued by you.

Your bright clothes, your boundless energy, your unapologetic individuality... It was all so different from the calculated, methodical world he lived in.

One thing that particularly caught his attention was your socks—or, more accurately, your constant struggle to keep them from slipping. Every time you adjusted them during training, Donnie couldn’t help but notice.

“Why don’t you just get longer socks?” he asked one day, genuinely curious.

“I’ve tried,” you said with a sigh. “But they always fall down. It’s so annoying!”

That conversation stuck with him, and a few days later, Donnie found himself tinkering in his lab. He designed a pair of custom socks with reinforced elastic, ensuring they wouldn’t slip no matter how much you moved.

When he handed them to you, you were surprised.

“They're for me?” you said, holding them up.

“They’re designed to stay up during activity,” Donnie explained, a faint blush dusting his cheeks. “I noticed you were struggling with yours, so I thought these might help.”

Your face lit up, and you gave him a beaming smile. “Donnie, that’s so thoughtful! Thank you!”

You hugged him tightly, catching him off guard.

“It’s nothing,” he said, trying to play it cool. But his heart was racing, and he couldn’t help the small smile that crept onto his face.

Over time, Donnie found himself growing more and more attached to you.

It wasn’t just your strength or your unique style—it was the way you treated him. You didn’t just see him as “the smart one” or “the tech guy.” You saw him.

And you had a way of surprising him with small gestures, like bringing him snacks while he worked or showing genuine interest in his inventions.

One day, you handed him a small bracelet made of colorful beads.

“What’s this?” Donnie asked, examining it.

“A good luck charm,” you said with a smile. “I thought you could use it in the lab.”

Donnie stared at the bracelet, his chest tightening. It was such a simple gesture, but it meant so much to him.

“Thank you,” he said softly, slipping it onto his wrist.

Donnie wasn’t used to feeling this way—flustered, nervous, happy. But with you, it felt natural.

FIRST KISS HEADCANONS TMNT BAYVERSE X FEM! READER

Leonardo

Leo’s the slow burn of slow burns. He doesn’t rush a damn thing, especially not something as intimate as this.

He’s been fighting the urge for weeks, but every time your hand brushes his arm or you smile up at him after a mission… the control cracks a little more.

You notice him stealing glances. That stoic face flickers, eyes soft, mouth tense like he’s biting words back.

When you ask, “What is it?” he exhales, the type of sigh that sounds like surrender.

He leans in a little too close, still trying to hold onto his composure. His voice drops “I shouldn’t… but I really want to.”

His hand ghosts over your jaw before he pulls back, testing you, giving you a chance to stop him. You don’t.

The kiss starts feather-light, almost hesitant. Then his discipline dissolves, his other hand slides to the back of your neck, deepening it.

When he finally pulls away, forehead resting against yours, he whispers “You’re going to ruin my focus.”

You smirk, breathless: “Good.”

.

.

.

Raphael

Raph’s the type to fight his feelings like they’re another enemy to beat. He’s all bark until it’s about you, then suddenly he’s tongue-tied.

The first kiss doesn’t happen soft. It happens loud, after one too many teases, one too many looks.

You’re arguing about something stupid (probably him being reckless again), and he smirks, all cocky “What, ya worried about me or somethin’, sweetheart?” You roll your eyes, shove his shoulder — and he catches your wrist. That’s when the mood shifts.

His grin falters. The heat in his eyes changes — not anger anymore, but something dangerous in a different way.

He steps closer, testing boundaries he knows damn well he’s about to cross.

“You keep lookin’ at me like that, I’m gonna do somethin’ you won’t forget.”

You whisper, “Then do it.”

That’s it.

He kisses you like it’s the last fight he’ll ever win — rough hands, firm grip, but still holding back just enough to not scare you.

When he breaks the kiss, his voice is low “Now you can worry ‘bout me all you want.”

.

.

.

Donatello

Donnie’s crush on you? Obvious to everyone but him. He overthinks it to the point of paralysis

The first kiss isn’t planned. It’s a glitch in the system.

You wake him gently, brushing his shoulder — and he startles, knocking over a wrench. His face goes red instantly.

You laugh, leaning in to help him, and that’s when you realize how close your faces are. He freezes.

His brain short-circuits: words fail, calculations gone. Just heartbeat and warmth.

You whisper something teasing like, “What, no smart comeback this time?”

He swallows hard, eyes flicking to your lips, then back up.

“I can… think of a few responses.”

Before he loses the nerve, he leans in, soft, uncertain, trembling. The kind of kiss where his hand hesitates halfway before resting on your waist.

It’s shy at first, sweet, but there’s passion simmering under it, the kind that only builds from long, quiet yearning.

When he pulls away, he’s breathless and dazed, mumbling, “I think I just discovered a new law of attraction.”

You grin, “Yeah? You gonna write a paper on it?”

“Only if you’re my co-author”

My poor guy's brain is overheating lmao

.

.

.

Michelangelo

Mikey’s been flirting since day one, but it’s usually jokes, nicknames, cheeky winks, until this night (oops)

The laughter fades, replaced by this hush where you both realize… something shifted.

He’s looking at you, smile softening, the goofiness melting into something almost tender.

“Y’know, I joke a lot” he says, voice suddenly low “but this right here? Kinda feels like my favorite dream.”

You tilt your head, teasing, “You dream about me often?”

He grins, but there’s a blush creeping up his neck. “Only the good kind, angel.”

Then he moves closer — his hand brushing your hair back, fingers lingering a little too long.

You can feel his breath when he murmurs, “Can I?” (HE IS SO CUTE)

You nod.

The kiss is sweet, but alive, all warmth and smile and heartbeat. He tastes like bubblegum and adrenaline.

Halfway through, he chuckles softly against your lips. “Damn, I’m gonna need a sequel.”

ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁 .ᐟ BAYVERSE!LEO DATING HCS

ᯓ★ lots of fluff, reader goes by she/her pronouns! (This is late and short— sorry—)

He confessed first.

It came as a shocker to everyone since nobody thought he'd be the type to.

But again he's the type to be like 'If she rejects me then she rejects me'

So imagine his surprise when you said yes. He had a whole script ready for when you said no so he was just stumbling over his words like a mess when you did accept his feelings.

Speaking of, you're the only person in his life he has a hard time of saying no to. Its like you bring out this carefreeness inside him people rarely gets to see.

You once asked him to glitter bomb Raph's punching bag so that everytime he swings at it glitter explodes out of nowhere.

Obviously Leo gave you that stern "No" but next thing you know he's reminding Raph to train.

Completely walking him into the trap you've set up.

You guys enjoy sharing your food... or more like you eating his food since he eats like an IG model.

He always passes you the soda cans when he's done drinking from it and its like he only took a few sips from it.

He has a strict diet.

So yes he cares about his greens.

And yes he cares about your health.

Voluntarily helps you workout. It doesn't have to be intense (unless you suggest so), he just wants you to be in good health.

He'd hate to see you get sick.

You once got a fever and he literally dropped out of everything (even patrols) to take care of you. Because of that the fever only lasted for a few days rather than a week.

You love being carried and he doesn't mind it at all.

He actually enjoys how giddy it makes you feel.

Would spin you around like a Disney princess if you'd let him.

Has definitely caught you playing with his katana before.

He doesn't say anything, just leaning against the doorframe with his arms folded as he watches you attempt to open your snacks with the katana because you couldn't find any scissors.

So you know the blue ribbon that hangs from his katana?

That would become your signature look.

Either its used to tie your ponytail, shoes, skirts, its whatever.

It was like a discreet way to say you were his.

And he loves it. He goes crazy over it but you wouldn't know because he always manages to keep his composure.

That doesn't mean he won't kiss you and say how beautiful you are.

Loves to smell the heck out of you.

If you're ever passing by, either to get something or talk to someone, he will always wrap his arms around from the back before he buries his face into the crook of your neck.

Your smell is just so addictive to him.

The only way he can put it into words is how the smell of you just calms him down entirely.

Out of everybody, he feels he can drop his strong leader demeanor and be his stupid self when he's around you.

Is very cheeky when its just the two of you.

He loves tickling you when you least expect it and then finds it amusing having to watch you try to fight your way out of it.

Its not like he can help it.

That pouty angry look of yours just encourages him even more.

He definitely calls you baby. Clichés is best after all.

"I've missed you baby" He'd say before lifting you by the chin to kiss you.

Yes he's a huge kisser. There is not a day that goes where he doesn't kiss you.

Either its quick kiss on the cheek or a long passionate one.

However, his love language is basically words of affirmation.

There's nothing better than voicing your love for someone. Well that's what he thinks.

You do call him cheesy for some of the things he said but he just shuts you up with kisses so that you both end up sounding like laughing fools.

Talks about you all the time... especially when he's with the others.

Always mentioning how you would love these flowers, how you would love the bright moon and whatever else it is that you'd love. He always feels the need to bring you up.

The brothers just kinda got used to it.

Mikey definitely teases him.

At least more compared to the rest.

I'm gonna use this ask to post it!

Which this is a reminder that I think the guys are very flexible about this stuff. Not being the kind of person that match their preferences isn't a deal breaker for them and they're always capable of trying and even loving new experiences and people.

With that best being said...

Types the Guys Have!

Leonardo

- Leo is a very straightforward and in charge kind of guy, he's not fond of being told what to do

- That being said, he loves being told what to do. Within reason! He likes challenges and if you're a difficult person then it draws him in. You would think that wouldn't work considering who he is but Leonardo is the kind of person that needs to have his boundaries stretched

- Someone that, when it calls for it, can hold their own. He wants a person that's fit and can learn quick when it comes to fending for theirselves. He never minds being your hero when it comes down to it, but just knowing you can handle his world eases his mind

- a strong back and legs really get his gears going

- This also means he wants someone that is resilient. Even if your world is chaos or you have it hard, it's admirable to see you go through it unphased

- I love Leorai (not, in a 2012 or rise kind of way), so this influences a lot of it. But even if he likes someone that can be snappy and quick witted and bossy, he also needs that person to be real with him. At the end of the day, when you're alone, you both should be able to lie side by side and just let go of the weight and be vulnerable. He considers it really special to have someone he can be raw and honest with

Raphael

- #demiromantic @moxfirefly knows what I'm talking about

- He needs someone that is PATIENT! Like a saint. Especially in the start, because even you breathing different makes him scatter. He has bad days, he has great days, he wants someone that can handle it. Handle the week where he disappears, the week where all he wants to do is be up your ass, he needs stability

- You've gotta lead in terms of intimacy and breaking barriers. First kiss is you, first make out is you, all of it is you giving the big 'OKAY' and then letting him take the time to learn

- Wants someone that isn't involved in his world. No fighting, no vigilante business, no trying to get involved. He needs you to be his sense of normalcy and the only chance you're getting in his world is staying at the lair and being medic and even then he just hates you seeing it. You know what he does but he doesn't want you seeing it all

- You could be fit or soft, he isn't the guy to care. He loves making late night snacks with you but also loves when you join him in the gym

- Has a deep appreciation and love for people with hard jobs. Medical, EMS, criminal justice, etc. He has a softer heart for people that love helping others, because that's something you'll have in common

Donatello

- Most likely to date a sweetheart and a tender soul. Something about a person that's kind despite the world really calls to him

- That being said, also likely to date a teacher. Especially elementary or middle school. He loves hearing your lesson plans, your passion for child development, the way you're still able to get up in the morning with a smile and ready to do it again, even if your students are difficult. Also likes contributing to your ideas, especially if you're a science teacher

- Said this once before, he would gravitate towards a person that's on the chubbier or softer side

- Doesn't mind you knowing about his world and what he does, and if you want to contribute then he can't stop you, but he begs for you to just stay at base. You don't need to be running around and about on his account and he likes coming back to know you're there waiting for him

- Needs someone that has their own hobbies. Reading, art, anything. Mostly because that means coexisting and not having to worry about entertaining you

- You need a sweet tooth, because he has a sweet tooth. And if you say no to a midnight ice cream snack then what's the point

Michelangelo

- The most flexible of them all. He just wants someone that is kind, that can laugh, and that can understand him. He's someone that requires patience, care, and empathy. He knows he can be a lot sometimes, he just asks you go along with it

- And on those days where he can't get up in the morning, where the fact he's a mutant glares in his mind, he really needs you. Just hold him, let him feel it, let him be... not Mikey. He isn't always bouncing around and he hates it

- If you wanted to learn how to fight then he's all for it. Self defense, combat (Leo barges in on that one), play fighting. It's all fun and good until you get hurt, then he's doubting if he should have ever indulged you

- Boobs. Any kind. Man, woman, enby, whoever. Pecs or tits. He is weak. Most shallow thing about him is the way he pinches your nipple and gropes your chest

- Alternative people! He loves when you customize your character. Haircut and style, piercings, tattoos, clothes. It's mesmerizing
