Summary
Their eldest brother always cared for them when Splinter was away, was always the one to hug and comfort them when something went awry, the one to tuck them in and kiss them goodnight when Splinter was too busy meditating or had already fallen asleep. Leonardo was the one to pull back the covers for them and cuddle them close on his bed when they went to his room after a nightmare.
Or three times the Hamato brothers slept on Leonardo's lap.

Summary
He wasn't breaking things with ill intent, and he wasn't doing it on purpose at all. He just needed something to distract himself with or else he'd go insane.
So he turned on the TV as loud as it would get and let himself move freely and let out all the jittery anxiety thrumming through his body. And sometimes, when he moved freely like that, he broke things. He wasn't actively trying to, but the sound of glass smashing and wood creaking with his weight was very satisfying and he didn't put any effort at all in trying to stop himself from breaking things.
But Leonardo just didn't understand! And Michelangelo didn't know how to put it into words for him, he had tried many times but in the end Leo just ended up confused while Mikey got increasingly more frustrated with how he just couldn't explain.
Or: Michelangelo breaks things when he's stressed. Leonardo helps him find better ways to deal with his emotions.

Summary
Leonardo hummed as he tried to stay awake, bouncing Mikey on his knees like he used to do when he was smaller, and the freckled turtle snored against his shoulder.
“He's like a baby.” Raphael snickered, and Leo held back a smile.
“Don't be mean.” He chastised, and the second-oldest laughed.
Donatello sighed deeply, rubbing his eyes to try and stay awake, and Leo looked at him through the rearview mirror before looking back at the road.
“Hang on for just a little bit, guys… We're almost home.”
.
The brothers are tired, Leo puts them to bed.
