And I’ll Wait a Little Longer. by Conartist170

Summary
Draxum’s lab had many oddities. Scrolls, spells, hexes trapped in crystal glass bottles. He was a man of the mystic arts. Of alchemy. Of weaponry. Of the discovery of the things no one had wanted to touch with a ten foot pole.
The yokai had many, many questionably legal and potentially unsafe things left out in the open in his lab.
And unfortunately, Leo and Donnie, happen to stumble upon one of those potentially unsafe things. And unfortunately…there may not be a way back.
–
Leo and Donnie accidentally trip into mystic shenanigans and end up fusing into one entity. The catch is, this new person believes they have always been this way. That they have always been one person.
And, at the end of the day, they may not want to turn back.

Summary
Leo watched him awkward. Instinct told him to try to relax and make a joke, but something made him feel that this one would not be well received.
"Don't worry, big brother," said the one in red bandana.
(And something in that sentence was wrong).
"You'll get your memories back and then we'll all be training together again, you'll see" he told him with a confident smile, looking like he believed every word he said. But faltering at the end of the sentence, showing a bit of his doubt.
Leo tried to smile back, only ending with a strange grimace.
Everything was wrong, his body was wrong. And even though he didn't know what was going on, he was just sure that those people were not his brothers.
O
Rise and 2012 Leo change dimension. The problem? They both have amnesia, they are in each other's body and they both just woke up from their respective coma.

Summary
Raph was proud of his brothers. He really was. He grew up and got to watch all of them become so smart, so creative, so tactical. He’s proud of every art project Mikey shows with a gap-toothed smile, he’s proud of every invention Donnie pretends he doesn’t need validation for even if he doesn’t understand it, he’s even proud of all those high school chess tournaments Leo destroyed back in high school after a year and a half of pretending he was too cool for chess club. They were so, so talented, and he… was Raph. It only makes sense that they’d move on to bigger, better things.
If only that didn't somehow correlate to the constant fog and chill he feels, nowadays.

Summary
I’m trying, Raph thought, but he wasn’t supposed to speak, so he held his breath and went as still as he possibly could. Slowly, carefully, he let the breath out and forced his body to relax. Relax. Relax. He was supposed to relax. That’s what meditation was for.
Or, Raph hates meditation. It's just another thing that makes him a disappointment.

Summary
“Raphael,” she said gently. “I know it’s difficult for you to use the past tense-”
“It’s not difficult, it’s just wrong,” Raph growled. He couldn’t look at her. This was the thing. The thing that made everyone look at him with pity. Like he was defective or broken. Like he was some stupid idiot who couldn’t get with the program.
But it was everyone else who was wrong. Raph was the only one who was living in reality.
“Leo. Isn’t. Dead.”
_________________It's been two years since Leo's disappearance. The city has erected a monument in Bryant Park to honor and mourn New York's bravest young hero.
While Leo's statue sits in the park, Raph sits in therapy. Everyone believes Raph is too traumatized, too wounded to process the loss of his brother.
But there's something Raph can't explain, something only he can feel, something everybody wants him to ignore. It whispers softly somewhere in the deepest corners of his mind: he's still here.
Raph listens.

Summary
“Ohhhh!” April repeats immediately, grabbing onto the back of his chair with her free hand and maybe possibly shaking it a little tiny bit. She’s excited! What can she say! “A poem! For Mona Lisa! That’s so sweet!”
A second of silence.
“…also a little funny. Sorry, dude.”
Or: in which Raph writes a poem, April kinda sorta maybe almost helps, and Mikey is also there

Summary
SET DURING THE SPACE EPISODES OF SEASON 4
Raphael and Michelangelo get separated from the others during a surprise 'asteroid storm' where Mikey gets hurdled away and Raph refuses to let him go.
Hours later they wake somewhere strange, surrounded by the unknown...lost in space, but at least they have each other...right?...that is, until they are forcibly separated and Michelangelo is sold to an alien being that collects all things 'earth like' back on her home planet in sector 37 where he faces an awful fate...and Raphael is forced to watch as his brother is literally taken off of the same planet by a psychopath he knows nothing about.
Raphael is trapped, and the creatures that have him will not let him go easily, whilst Leo, Donnie and the others search relentlessly...bashing skulls if need be.
They will all stop at absolutely nothing to find each other through the cosmos again.
(A story of separation and finding...of hurt, angst and fluff)
Come along on the crazy ride! (Love from your sleep deprived author)

Summary
Raph has always been a 'punch first, ask questions later' type of turtle, as he liked to act before thinking. It was just the type of guy he was. But unfortunately for Raph, the consequences of one particular impulsive decision would extend far beyond his own universe.
This is a crossover between the 2003, 2012, and Rise universes, with 2012 being the main focus. It takes place after my 'Pre-Multiverse' series, so I would suggest reading those stories first for context. This story was also inspired by elements of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and Turtles Forever. Warning: Language, violence and gore, dark themes, major character deaths, and major canon changes.Series

Summary
“Case, man, she was pretty zonked when I saw her. It’s possible she’s just super exhausted.” Raph tried, but he was already up, grabbing the spare key to the apartment.
“Dude, my wife is the lightest sleeper.” came an incredulous squawk.
“I know, I’m already heading out the door. I’ll call you back in a bit.”
He ended the call, stuffing his cell into the pocket of his leather jacket before shrugging it on. He scooped up his helmet before grabbing the key to his cycle, heading towards the garage in a quick clip.
April was fine, he told himself, there was a reasonable explanation for all of this.
He just wished his heart would get with the program.
-OR-
Raph thought he was getting a quiet night.
He thought wrong.

Or
