Apriltello, Leorai and mild Rasey.

Donatello isn't about to let April O'Neil finish her journalism degree and move across country without letting her know how he's felt since they were teenagers. But when something inexplicable arrives in Earth's atmosphere on the night of their first date it's hardly something the turtles can ignore.

After a long and lonely day, Kagome falls asleep over her schoolwork only to awake with Inuyasha watching over her. As they begin an intimate conversation, Kagome is hit with a self revelation that redefines the terms of their relationship and forces Inuyasha to reflect on his feelings.

What's the most terrifying thing about space? It's not the creepy alien monster on that planet, or the unexplainable black hole in this galaxy. It's how far apart, infinite, yet connected it is. How very little it takes to get lost in it forever. – Raph definitely knows. (2012, space arc, psychological thriller)

Alley Davidson moves to Chicago, and things are about to get interesting. She's not sure about cousin Charley's unusual friends, who seem more interested in her than she is in them.

Raphel goes up against the kuchisake-onna, the Slashed Woman of Japanese urban legend. And he's ready. Entry for the current challenge on Writers-Nexus on devArt

For Donatello, measurable concepts is where logic reigns as king. Logic will thrive where the soul has no proof. But what about the intangible imaginations of the heart?... The soul will flourish where logic cannot be found. Denying the inconceivable mysteries of hope, faith, and love has dangerous consequences Donatello is not yet ready to face.

Just because two cultures don't mesh doesn't mean they have to clash, and Charley is about to get a first hand lesson in how Martian women prefer their men. On a trip back to Earth from Mars Charley awkwardly and frustratingly falls in love, Martian style. Takes place during 'Return to Mars'.

Friendship, family, love, and honor are the binding forces of life. But when life gets messy, some bonds sever too easily while others seem to hold you too tight. Features Don & April, but not in the way you might think!

Nominated for Best Dark Fiction in 2018 TMNT Reader's Choice Awards * NOT an animal torture fic * Leo and Raph get into some trouble at the park. The kind of trouble that changes you forever. Two girls are missing in NYC and the Clan is responsible. * Leonardo/DArk LeO * Raphael * Donatello * Michelangelo *

So for Annual Tumblr Leorai week, 2016, was able to complete two prompts: INJURED & REUNION * 2014 turtles * MATURE rating * Injured: Mature Audience Only * Reunion: All ages * Leonardo, Karai, sexy, short, ninja turtles fanfic

Michelangelo is the goof, the comedian, the joker. But he is so much more than that. Like the wind, he is wild. He is fast. He is strong. This is what he brings to the table.

In a lot of ways, the Turtles are normal teenagers. And in some ways, Splinter is a normal middle-aged man. 2k12 crackfic... sort of.

Michelangelo 'booty calls' April with his booty and the SS Aprilangelo takes flight! #CruiseShipHornBlast * Hot hot love for Mikey. * Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles * Michelangelo/Mikey, April O'Neil * Romance * Happy fic * Feels so good

But, at the darkest point in his life, an unexpected ally may lend a hand. Set shortly after The Lonely Mutation of Baxter Stockman. (Warning! Donnie is in for a rough time in this fic.)

Why did making love with April only seem to introduce, not remove, complications for Donatello? Inner demons old and new rear their heads for both teen and Turtle. Forced to grapple with desire, doubt and self-discovery, romance becomes a rocky and complex coast to navigate...The follow-up story to Revelations: Donnie & April.

Winter has descended upon the city. Again. The furnace is out. Again. And Donatello has to sort it out. Again. A surprise visit from April has him shifting his priorities. Maybe just for a second. Is that too much to ask? (Fluff and a touch of romance to ring in the new year. Happy 2018, friends!)

Carrying April O'Neil is effortless. But carrying the weight of being torn apart is almost too heavy a load to bear.

After Donatello's un-mutation and Shredder's death, everybody struggles to pick up the pieces and move forward with their lives. April, Kirby, and Tang Mei (Tang Shen's sister) work to find a way to re-mutate Donnie, while Karai has vowed to take down the rest of the Foot Clan from the inside. They will be forced to work with the Kraang to succeed - if success is even possible.

Michelangelo gets ambushed; the Shredder gets another chance to test his mind control serum. Surprisingly- unfortunately- it works better than anticipated. (Co-authored by moogsthewriter.)

I wrote this last Apritello Day and never posted it! April tells Donnie how she feels on Valentine's Day... at least that's what she intends to do.

The war between humans and mutants ends the minute the Kraang come calling. There's just the matter of making the tenuous peace stick - and Donnie drew the short straw. Here's hoping his blushing bride doesn't murder him in his sleep.

It all started because Karai and Leo got sloppy. The Shredder doesn't take the news well. * * 2k14 U * Leonardo, Karai, Shredder, Kitsune, Michelangelo, Raphael, Donatello * update 11.20.17 not abandoned I really want to finish this fic. xoxox

100 Drabbles based on 100 prompts! :D I am rating these M so that I have the freedom to do as I wish, but I have no idea what each rating will be. I will try to remember to rate each drabble at the beginning. The first is rated K. I may or may not stick to 2012 'verse. If I switch verses, I'll leave an a/n at the beginning :) Cover art by turtle-sketches, 029, "Keeping a Secret."

Parties are Michelangelo's thing. He is the party dude, after all. But with Kala's birthday fast approaching, Michelangelo finds that even a party dude needs help sometimes. 1987 Mikey/Kala fluff.

But after defeating a monster with her mother's face, April finds she can only hold her emotions down for so long before something snaps. Fortunately, she can always count on her best friend to help her pick up the broken pieces. Written for Apriltello Day 2017

An Apritello Fluff Fic. Special thanks to theherocomplex and hotmilkytea for their kind and insightful beta-work.

Every stitch makes up one part of the whole. .: A collection of drabbles, ficlets, and prompts :.

[2012, AU of Vengeance is Mine] The Shredder succeeded in mutating the turtles into vicious snakes. Now Karai needs to turn them back, before it's too late.

Two universes. Two sets of brothers. Two gods who decided to use the planet as their personal battleground. As usual, it's up to Donnie to fix it. (The fourth installment of the GaVG 'verse, sequel to "Walking Wounded")

A little Leorai for the new year. I do not own TMNT. *Nominated in the 2016 Universal Fanfic Comp for Loveliest Romance*

He would die a thousand deaths to protect them from this world. They're not interested.

The Kraang never came for April. Instead they watched and waited, biding their time and keeping a much closer eye on those effected by their mutagen. But they underestimated the threat offered by a pissed-off teenage girl, a giant alligator, and three turtles who just want their brother back. Rated T for language and possible gore.

A continuation of life aboard the ship for April and Donatello shortly after their trip to Varanon. Loosely based on 2012 TMNT.

April's grieving a terrible loss, but as always she has her best friend right beside her. I do not own TMNT. *Nominated in the 2016 Universal Fanfic Comp for Loveliest Romance*

Written for the flashfic prompt on Tumblr, "Gratitude" I couldn't wait to post this as it's the aftermath of "The Power Inside Her". If you haven't seen the episode do not read this fic. I do not own TMNT. *Nominated in the 2016 Universal Fanfic Comp for Most Interesting Canon Ally (April)*

Donatello caught her twice that night. So why did she still feel like she was falling? In the aftermath of her abduction and rescue from the Kraang, April O'Neil reflects on how her life has changed forever. But can she face the coming challenges alone? (Meanwhile, Leo learns the nature of a hero, and something strange is coming from the sewers...)

Leo's got a choice to make. Donnie's got some stuff to make. And everyone else is just a complication! (Sequel to Unspoken Affection)

April is trying to cope with loss and finds a kindred spirit in an unexpected place. (RaphaelxApril)

If you like Leo and Karai running around like in a chic flick, being careless and slightly idiotic, possibly drunk –heck, quite drunk, then this story might just be for you... (One Shot) won 2nd place for Funniest Comedy in the Universal TMNT Fanfiction Competition 2016

Definition: lasting only for a short time; impermanent. Or at least Donnie hoped.

April knew Splinter was awake before she'd even touched his shoulder, but she nonetheless shook him gently and plopped a large gym bag onto the couch beside him. "The power's out again," she whispered against a faint, persistent beeping of an alarm. "Pack all the food; there's a fireplace and a wood stove in the house in Northhampton."

Donnie's letters to April are his only bright spots at the end of the world. Even if she'll never read them (TMNT 2012 AU, Apritello).

Amazon Turtle AU (tmnt 2012) It's the late 1800′s and April O'Niel has travelled from London to the Amazon Rainforest searching for some creatures her father claims to have seen when he was investigating as a naturalist scientist. Even if the scientific community didn't believe him she did, and she is set on proving him right.

Deep in the woods under a canopy of ancient trees lived the Green Wizard. An Apritello/TMNT fantasy AU.

I wanted some cute fluff in this ship, but I can never find enough to quench my need. (Also Kudos to Karkat for insults in "Study Session"!)

As a reporter, April O'Neil doesn't believe in questions that she shouldn't know the answers to. "Okay," she says, pretending for a moment longer that she's not in her bathroom talking to her own reflection with an ironing board and a stack of pillows belted to her back. "Let the experiment begin." (AKA, Exactly How DO Giant Mutant Turtles Use the Bathroom? 2k14 verse)

[2012-verse] After Donnie and April finally get together, it takes four weeks and two days for it to really sink in. And then...

Buried alive after a subway station collapse, Bernadette Thompson wishes she hadn't erased that conversation with April O'Neil from her mind. Lucky for her Donatello spent all that time in the Hashi learning not to break. (2k14 verse, post Out of the Shadows)

A late night call, a rain storm, a gazebo in a park, and a green dress. What could possibly go wrong? Based off from the seasons of the show in the 90's. Suggestive/Adult themes, alcohol, and cussing. RATING is now M! Part Two has finally been written... I hope you guys enjoy it. I wrote it as a thank you for your support.

2k16 'verse, Out of the Shadows. April notices with way he lifts his glasses before carefully wiping them clean, afraid of another snap underneath thickly wrapped adhesive tape. Maybe, she can help him out. Apritello.

It all changed one night... Donatello on his developing relationship with April O'Neil. Written by Novus Ordo Seclorum & Terraform.

It should have been easy. Sensei had made him leader, put the katana in his hands and smiled, proud and sad all at once. What was so hard about unity? (In the aftermath of Krang's invasion, Leo realizes he still has a lot to learn about leadership.)

They've come home. At last. But it's not long before turtle luck is at it again. Donatello needs help, and as the family struggles to find some way to help him, April turns to a desperate solution - one that will put her in terrible danger and ultimately, change her, forever. Rated T for cursing and some intense themes.

TMNT 2012. What if April wasn't immune when she fell into Baxter Stockman's vat of mutagen? A Turtle-April Raphril fic.

It's a mark of how truly weird Leo's life has become that April saying "So, apparently Donnie and I are married now" over dinner doesn't even make anyone but Fugitoid look up from the table.

April reflects on her past in the face of an anniversary that brings her both joy and heartache. One-shot. Apritello. *Nominated in the 2016 Universal Fanfic Comp for Most In-Character Portrayal of a Canon Ally (April) & Most Heartbreaking Tragedy*

2K3 verse, SAINW continuity. Casey's death has brought Angel back into Raphael's life, but can he overcome his haunting sense of duty to his fallen best friend and the wife he left behind to find happiness at the end of the world? Rated M for language, adult themes and grief.

The struggle is only beginning for LeoxKarai. Their love will face the greatest test of all. Fathers will be brought to their knees, questioning all they've ever known. Lovers will cling to one another against the storm of trials, a girl will be rescued and a boy will find love in the most accidental place, when he least expected it. T for violence, light sexual content & cursing.

A freak snowstorm leaves the farmhouse cut off from the rest of the world. With the food supply dwindling, no power, and the turtles succumbing one by one to the cold, it's up to Casey Jones to save Christmas and April O'Neil to save everything else.

[2012, post The Fourfold Trap] "Try harder" is the wrong thing to say to the one person actually trying. Leo's got a lot of things to learn about being a leader, and about being a brother... if Donnie will still let him.

Space is a dangerous place. The smallest things can go terribly wrong, turning a simple task into a rescue mission, a fight for a brother's life.

Right away, Yoshi recognized that his little box turtles had become more than just corner store pets. They were children, now, almost human; with wide, bright eyes and dimpled faces. It took him longer to recognize that they were his children. (2k12, oneshot.)

"To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing." - Leo Buscaglia Raph liked to take risks. Of his three brothers he was the muscle, the first to fall into danger...and love. What if Donnie hadn't fallen in love with April? What if Raph did instead?

The line between love and hate is thin. The line between lust and hate even thinner. April is the enemy, is Foot clan, is dangerous. Raph knows all this…or he thinks he does. Written for Raphril week 2015.

A cave-in traps two of the brothers, and time and air are running out. 2k3 'verse.

[2012] Donnie tries to make up for the events of Battle for Dimension X by taking April on an impromptu field trip. Just the two of them. Written for Apritello Day 2016!

April is on a bit of a power-trip, fueled by the Aeon's Soul-Star shard.

One text message sets in motion an important decision for April. Short oneshot set immediately after the episode where the "brain worm" takes over Donnie's mind. Wrote it right after that; forgot to post it. Oops. But big thanks to noobTMNTfan for critiquing/proofreading. Read her stories! They rock! BTW, I don't own TMNT.

2K14. The evolution of Raphael and April's relationship over time, built on a shared framework of memories past to weave smoothly into their present and future.

In which April O'Neil goes looking for a lost cat and finds something unexpected. Inspired by the question: What if Splinter had met April the same night he and the boys mutated?

Rated a very high "T" for adult situations; including the use of alcohol. Summary: Failed relationships are simply trials, to prepare a person for when love actually strikes. Throttle and Carbine's relationship falls, but not in the way one might think. A slow building Throttle and Charley story. Slight ThrottlexCarbine and eventual ThrottlexCharley.(Confirmed Pairing)

Y'Gythgba earned her name. No one would take it from her. One-shot giftfic.

Romance/action/angst/hurt/happy ending

[2012] Tales from several different galaxies. A series of short-fics and drabbles set during season 4. (Update: 4.04: A necessary intervention.)

A place for all of the above.

A look at the turtles in their 30's, as their family grows and undergoes some major changes. Mostly 2012 'verse, but more like 2032 - and gleefully borrows from other 'verses. Capritello, but everyone in the family gets a chance to shine. MA, for cussin', adult situations, and some smutty chapters. TW: The Giants are losing. Cover art by turtle-sketches.

50 very short drabbles about the friendship and brotherhood between our four favourite turtle boys - Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael. Light-hearted, fun, full of adventure and mischief, come along for the ride in these tales of love and family.

[2012!SAINW!AU] On the other side of the Kraang portal, Raph has been missing for twenty years, April is gone, and his brothers have lost the war. And then Raph comes back, still a teenager, and the one thing they need to save their world once and for all.

It only took one minute for everything to fall apart. Years later, you're still trying to fix it. It's what you do. Even when you have to resort to desperate measures... Sequel to "Shatter".

April and Mike have a magical evening. * Rated T for Lap Dance * Ninja turtles fanfic * Michelangelo/Mikey, April O'Neil * COMPLETE * 2k14 U * Oneshot - Romance

"The knees of Michelangelo's jeans were quickly soaked through with the blood that pooled around his brother's battered, motionless body." Sometimes, some things stike without warning or notice leaving you...blindsided.

A catastrophic encounter between Donatello and new Foot technology leaves him irrevocably injured. From this tragic event emerges something that, should it have happened at any other time, would have made his life complete. How can he accept one precious gift in exchange for all that he once was? Can someone accept love when one cannot accept life? DonxApril (?)

For April O'Neil, life as she knows it, is about to change. A story following April after she is forced to move into the lair to hide from Shredder and the Kraang. Set in the 2012 universe and immediately following the episode 'Karai's Vendetta' (canon, up to that episode). An Apriltello fic.

* The persistence of a booty can be troublesome. * Michelangelo and April, Raphael pokes his head in, too * COMPLETE * 2k14 U * Rated T * Oneshot - Romance * Ninja turtles fanfic

A collection of short, self-contained pieces prompted by other fans on my tumblr. Some cute, some sad, some... quite naughty! All of them VinniexCharley.

After weeks without word from April, Donatello goes to her to apologize and set things right. But before he gets the chance, forces beyond his control stand in his way. 2k12 Universe. Set prior to "Target: April O'Neil." Rated T for language.

One of my goals is to write one new drabble for each new episode, which I'll collect here. :) I'll just pick something that jumps out at me and roll with it. They'll all be K .

A 2k3 "Same as it Never Was" what-if story. Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Raphael died in the assault on the Shredder's stronghold. But what if they hadn't?

Three years after the events of Penance, Leonardo continues to linger in a state of solitary grief. However, when Master Splinter sends him on an urgent mission that takes him far away from New York, Leonardo realizes he must battle through his despair - or risk never returning home again.

Sometimes what is commonly believed is not the truth. When one digs deeper, truths are revealed which lead to a whole new course of events. Raph was lost... And now they live with the consequences.

2k12 'verse set right after The Deadly Venom! Had to write this after watching the episode this morning. So, watch it before you read, for spoilers abound. Summary: Donatello makes a promise he cannot keep.

Where normally there were sparks of electricity and high pitched beeps and boops there was now a red liquid dripping from her tessen and a gurgling sound emanating from behind the soldier's mask. This wasn't a Footbot; it was a regular, human Foot Soldier. And she had just killed him. (Rated T for mild gore.)

April smiles. "Mikey... do you want to make a Mother's Day card for Leo?" (AKA Unapologetic Hamato family fluff.)

April finds the courage to finally acknowledge what she's always felt for the one brother who sacrificed so much for loyalty, family, and love. All that separates Leonardo from happiness is a past riddled with sacrifice and pain; a wounded heart, loyalty to a family that has grown up, brothers having gone their separate ways leaving him to his devotion to an ailing father.

Losing power overnight may also mean losing your pet cat, if she's made of ice cream. (2k12, drabble.)

April O'Neil meets someone unexpected when she should be studying for finals – but she's not complaining.

Following the events of 'Callous Logic,' a series of one shots, each focusing on a different POV character during the winter months in the city. These will stretch from cute to angst-ridden and everything in between.

Donatello had an appreciation for numbers, because unlike certain sentient beings, they don't lie. Warning: Angst, implied pending character death.

On a late-night stake out the Turtles play a game in front of April for the first time with a less than sensitive topic. - Does NOT contain character death. Does contain mild swearing.

"I knew this day would come, but I never saw it coming..." When April comes with a big announcement, Donatello must make a difficult choice.

2k12 Northampton Mikey/Raph fluff. One-shot. Winner of Jan 2015 TMNT Community Awards for General Fiction.

Takes place a couple weeks after the end of the 2007 movie. Leo mentors April. One-shot. Nominated in the 2015 Stealthy Stories Competition for Best Leonardo and Best Canon Ally (April).

Forehead in hands, elbows on desk, Donatello tried to escape the words that kept humming around in his mind. "Failure. Worthless. Freak." It happened to him every time an experiment went awry. Every time that he was disappointed in himself. It had always been that way... (Set between the events of "The Invasion" and "Within the Woods.")

When a lab accident leaves Donnie unrecognizable, the turtles decide to use it to their advantage by infiltrating Shredder's Foot Clan and getting a cure for Karai. However, as the effects of Donnie's change grow more pronounced, April begins to wonder whether the real Donnie will ever get back to them... or if he'll be lost to this dark new life. Cover Art by Triacylglycerol.

Based on Mirage Comic's "The River." A one-shot featuring Leonardo if things had ended differently for Raphael.

2k12 Raphril 'verse. Inspired by Komnenid, after defeating the Kraang and the Shredder, April and the guys are starting to move on with their lives. For April, that includes getting her high school diploma, which means interacting with some "unique situations." Starts fluffy then gets kind of serious. Rated mostly for language. Takes place after "Love or Blood."

2k12 Raphril. Sequel to "Struggle." Relationships can be tricky at the best of times, but when you're a mutant turtle with feelings for the same girl as both your brother and best friend, tricky doesn't begin to cover it. Add in being refugees from your home due to alien invasions, and suddenly life becomes a lot more complicated.

One-shot. Three brothers have a hard time shaking the effects of the nightmare world of the Dream Beavers. Takes place after "In Dreams."

Raph had a job to do. It wasn't cool or glamorous but it was his and he took pride in it. Unfortunately his latest client decides to make things infinitely more difficult for the poor turtle. The job is going to get done though. One way or another. Done for the Raphril week prompt, midnight.

2k14 movie verse. April comes to the rescue when Donatello gets a little roughed up, spurring feelings Donatello does not have it in him to face. Rated T. RaphaelxApril/DonatelloxApril.

Red is the colour of energy, action, impulse, and passion. It is also the colour of blood…and revenge. Written for Raphril week (prompt red). Warning this was written when Karai was still evil so...Karai is till evil in this.

Donatello and April try to find some alone time. Set in the same AU as Click and taking place during the events of A Winter Interlude.

Perhaps this time he'd be spared. Perhaps this time his baby brother would find someone else to pick on. But somehow the anxious turtle knew that over the past couple of years since they'd discovered this embarrassment of a pastime, he'd become Mikey's favorite, and being Mikey's favorite Truth or Dare target was not a title Raph was thrilled to have.

Stand your ground in the midst of what seems impossible.

Donatello is trapped, Michelangelo can't free him, and the enemy is closing in. But unbeknownst to the turtles, someone has been watching out for them.

2k12 'verse. Written for Leorai Week on Tumblr. Day 2: Honor. (Might not make them all, but gonna try dammit!)

Witnessing the near-deaths of the turtles has affected April more than she previously thought and insomnia leads her on a little mid-night venture into Donnie's room. Set right after the events of "In Dreams".

Mikey has a secret. Raph has a secret. Both are content to keep their secrets quiet from their older brothers and teacher. But it never works out that way, does it?

April is having a bad day and needs a cuddle. Donatello is the only one in the Lair. 2014 movie-verse. Implied Apritello

April O'Neil longs for her old life as a normal teenager. Instead she's been thrust into a life of mutants, ninjas, and aliens. When the foot puts a new plan in motion, she'll have to learn to accept her reality, and make some tough choices along the way. A slow build Apriltello Fic, that explores April's journey of acceptance and her inner turmoil over her feelings for Donnie.

Who doesn't love Movie Night? Except everyone knows it's not really Movie Night. 2012 'verse, but more like Spring of 2015. I'm delighted to announce that this fic won 1st Place for Best Sad Ending, 2015 Stealthy Stories TMNT Fanfiction Competition. :)

A double bind: a situation of conflict from which there is no escape; unresolvable dilemma...when one brother's life is in the balance, just how far will you go, what decisions will you make, what lines will you cross, in order to give him a chance at life?

The boys and April are training in the snowy woods by the farmhouse. Set after their escape from New York. One-shot. Mostly Donnie and Leo. I'm delighted to announce that this fic won 3rd Place for Best Short Work/One-Shot in the 2015 Stealthy Stories TMNT Fanfiction Competition! :)
