it’s usually around 2 or 3 a.m. when you hear the familiar knock on your fire escape.
he never texts first. he just shows up.
first thing he says is “can’t sleep.”
you stop asking why after the first few times.
he always brings snacks he found on the way.
he acts like he came to keep you company but he’s lying.
he immediately steals your couch or your bed without asking.
some nights he paces around your apartment because sitting still feels impossible; other nights he just stares out the window in silence.
you make him tea even though he insists it “doesn’t do anything” but he drinks it anyway.
if you play with the bandages on his arms, he noticeably relaxes.
he likes hearing you talk about random things because it gives his mind something else to focus on.
he’ll grumble if you call him out for needing comfort—> “i’m not here for that” he would say
five minutes later he’s leaning against your shoulder.
he falls asleep faster when you’re touching him somehow.
your hand on his arm is enough.
if you move away after he finally falls asleep, he’ll unconsciously pull you back.
nightmares are common; sometimes he wakes up breathing hard, pretending everything’s fine and you never push him to explain (he appreciates that more than you know).
he apologizes for waking you almost every visit and you always tell him your window’s open for him.
he pretends that doesn’t mean anything, but it means everything.

raph has absolutely no patience for most people. if someone annoys him, they get a glare, a sarcastic comment, or they get ignored completely.
then you walk into the room and his entire expression melts without him even realizing it, his voice dropping into the gentlest tone anyone has ever heard him use.
the others never stop making fun of him because it’s honestly embarrassing to watch. one second he’s threatening to throw mikey across the lair, the next you’re asking him if he slept well and he’s quietly mumbling “yeah… slept better after you texted me goodnight.”
he pretends he hates physical affection in front of everyone else, acting like hugs are annoying.
with you, though, he’s practically attached at the hip, always finding some excuse to keep a hand on your waist, your shoulder, or to pull you into his lap whenever you’re nearby.
if someone is rude to you, they’re lucky if leo gets to them first. raph takes it personally every single time, his protective instincts kicking in immediately, but the second you place your hand on his arm and tell him it’s okay, he takes a deep breath because your voice somehow calms him faster than anything else.
you see a side of him nobody else really gets to. he talks quieter with you, smiles more, laughs without trying to hide it, and even lets himself be vulnerable.
sometimes he’ll just lay his head against your shoulder without saying anything, happy to exist beside you.
whenever you’re tired, he becomes ridiculously attentive: he wraps a blanket around you if you’re cold, carries you if your feet hurt, brushes your hair away from your face, and keeps asking if you’ve eaten enough even though he’s the one who usually forgets meals.
his brothers swear he’s been replaced by an imposter: they’ll watch him grumble at them all morning, then hear you call his name from across the lair and suddenly he’s answering with the softest “yeah, sweetheart?” imaginable.
despite looking intimidating, raph absolutely loves when you play with him. tracing circles on his arms, scratching lightly along his shell, rubbing his cheeks, or absentmindedly running your fingers over his head has him practically melting into your touch while pretending he’s “just comfortable.”
arguments between the two of you never last very long because he genuinely hates upsetting you. he’s stubborn, sure, but the second he notices tears in your eyes or hears your voice crack, all the anger disappears and all he wants is to hold you close until you’re smiling again.
every night before patrol, he always finds you first. no matter how rushed things are, he gives you a forehead kiss, rests his forehead against yours for a second, and quietly reminds you to stay safe while he’s gone.
then, after acting like the toughest guy in new york all night, the first thing he wants when he gets back is to curl up beside you and let you play with his hands until he falls asleep.
