#raph imagines

As Raph climbed onto your balcony and began opening your fire escape window for your usual Friday night hangout, he stopped when a tiny paw swiped at him. Blinking owlishly tiny claws bat at his thick skin. He could honestly say he wasn't expecting anyone else when he wss dropping by.

"Oh Raph don't let them out!" You beg as you come running towards him and the window cat food bag in hand. The furrball hisses and Raph chuckles as he picks the white kitty up. Coming into your apartmemt he closes the window behind him before tilting his head up as the cat in his hands tries to swipe at his face.

"What in the shell is this (Y/N)?" He teases as he scratches under the kitties chin to calm it down. The cat looks confused for a second kicking it's little legs before it close it's eyes and a deep purr escapes their chest. It begins wiggling tail swishing as it nuzzles against Raphs shell letting out pleased noises.

"Its a cat." You respond putting down th catfood before coming over to take the recently adopted stray out of Raphs arms. The cat hisses trying to slash at you before curling up into Raph again. "Oh no fair why do they like you so much? I saved them!" You whine but it's playful. You cross your arms glaring at the traitor of a cat but it ignores you taking all the attention Raph gives them with a smug look.

He chuckles at the cats antics before smirking at you. You smile before showing him all the cat stuff you bought as he walks around your apartment.

"They were outside so I decided to save them." You hum giving a short explanation to the gift intruding on his time with you. "Now I have a bunch of cat crap. Guess I'm that crazy cat person now." You shrug and Raph snorts.

"Guess we're cat parents." He says before kissing the cats head. The cat purrs in response and you roll your eyes unsure of how this split custody came to be.

an:// hehe i always love these kind of prompts :)

the lair was never warm enough in the winter, even with all the efforts donnie made to make it warmer. the boys usually fought through it on their own, working out and moving around more often to get the blood in their body moving and make them hotter. as much as the boys were big fans of the fall, the winter was just too much for them to be comfortable.

however, this was the first winter raphael would have you. you we’re determined to keep the boys as warm as possible this winter as soon as you heard mikey complaining about how it would be getting freezing soon. so here you came, bounding into the lair with a bag filled to the brim with the fuzziest of blankets from your home and loads of hot chocolate.

within seconds, mikey had snatched a packet from you and was already making his hot chocolate. “it’s so cold down here angel, i don’t even know how we’ve managed to survive sixteen years here.” his teeth chattered as he talked, speaking as he leaned back against the counter with his arms crossed to try and hold in more warmth. you smiled gently at him before wrapping him in one of the many blankets in your stash.

“donnie’s definitely in his lab, where’s leo?” you questioned, getting started on donatello and leonardo’s hot chocolate now that mikey’s had finished.

“in the dojo. somethin’ about taking his mind off the cold.” the youngest shrugged, warming his hands with the hot cup.

you grinned and nodded, then put raph’s cup in the microwave as you carried some blankets and the hot mugs towards the other two turtle brothers. walking into donnie’s lab, the purple banded turtle was hunched over his desk trying to work on the broken space heater. you knew he wouldn’t take lightly to being disturbed, so you just silently wrapped the blanket over his shoulders and left the hot cup off to the side away from the electronics.

making your way to the dojo, you noticed raphael up in the weight room and made a mental note to remember to bring the things to your boyfriend there when you were done with leo. considering leonardo also looked like he didn’t want to be disturbed, you gently placed the mug a few feet from him on the ground and wrapped your fluffy blanket over the leader’s wide shoulders.

the remaining blankets were reserved specifically for your terrapin boyfriend. you padded to his room instead of the weight room and made a large bundle of blankets across his already covered bed. you placed his mug on the night stand before walking back towards where you last saw him. however, you quite literally ran into him as soon as you left the room into the hallway.

he quickly grabbed your waist to steady you before grinning at you. “why ya in such a rush?”

you grinned before wrapping your fingers around his wrist and pulling him into the room behind you. “i brought blankets and hot chocolate for you and the boys to warm up.”

he grinned smugly and wrapped his arms around you from behind before you could move forward anymore. resting his chin on the top of your head, he tugged your body closer to his. “yer the best babe.”

     You warned him. Master Splinter warned him. Hell, even Leo warned him. But did Raph listen? No. And now he’s sick. 

    You had all warned Raph not to over work himself working out and going on patrols when it’s so cold and rainy out. After all, the incoming fall weather was getting more and more apparent and colder each passing day. But, the warnings fell of deaf ears. Raph didn't listen. And now he’s sick, with a slightly high fever. 

   You, of course, decided to help the boys out with taking care of you’re adorable boyfriend. It was a rare chance to see the big, tough guy act not so tough. But, you had no idea that he would be like this. 

   You had just walked into the lair, heading towards Raph’s room when you saw Donnie walking out of it. Donnie, upon seeing you, sighed in relief. Before you could question the genius, he wished you a ‘good luck’ and rushed away into his lab. You shrugged it off and continued into Raph’s room. 

   You’re heart ached when you saw your favorite red-cladded turtle laying in his bed, breathing heavily, with a slightly damp wash cloth on his forehead. You smile, walking over to the bed. Thankfully he was awake. 

“Hey.” You whispered. 

Raph smiled, “Hey, babe.” 

    You chuckled, checking his forehead. He swiftly grabbed your wrist, yet gently, not to bruise you in any way. This took you by surprise. 

He whispered, “Could you hug me? Please?” 

   You stared at him for a good moment, thinking about how weird sick! Raph was. After a second, you agreed. This put a big soft smile on his face. As you climbed into bed, careful not to hurt Raph, he whispered a soft ‘Thank you’. It was so weird, having such a nice Raph for a change. 

 While laying there, cuddling, Raph continued to whisper, almost horsely, about how sweet, and pretty you are.
