    Summary

    When Leo wakes up in a place he's never seen before, three months have passed. Three months that his family had been worried sick about him, three months for him to recover from his loss against Shredder and the resulting brush with death. Despite all the time that has passed, the wounds of his failure still sit deep.

    But between the Kraang controlling New York City and the fate of his father still being undecided, Leo has no time to waste. If only the universe didn't have other plans.

    Raph has spent every waking second looking after Leo and now that his brother is finally, despite all odds, awake again, he doesn't know what to do with himself. It's just his luck that—despite being forced to live together for months—everyone else has more than enough problems to bother him with.

     

    Or, my take on what the 2012 Farmhouse Arc could've been like

    They’re okay.

    (The conscious human ignores the hummingbird beat of his own pulse, the prickling in his fingers and legs, the shallow hitch in his breath. Everyone’s safe.)

    He just wishes he could feel it.

    OR

    A little Capriltello post-episode fic- Casey is rightfully freaked out after the events of The Power Inside Her (in which he nearly loses both his partners in one day), and April + Donnie calm him down after :)

    Summary

    LOOP: 237
    FATALITIES: 238
    TURTLES CONSCIOUS: 3

    Leo tipped backward, letting the cool air of the night wash over his warm skin. He’d caught himself threatening to fall forward, probably straight into some diner’s dumpster, and taken the chance to right himself before he did something so completely ridiculous. Sensei would blow a fuse if he saw that. After all the drills he’d had Leo run through from such a young age, one would think that he’d retain one or two of them, especially in such a low-stakes environment.

    He shook his head, amused at the thought. He could probably recite the very Space Heroes episode he’d watched the day that his father first taught him the importance of his balance, yet the information all but disappeared from him now.

    It was weird how the brain retained memories. He supposed it had to do with their bases. Too bland, and they’d never stand out against the sea of all that came before them. Too eye-catching, and he’d never move past them. They had to be just right, just the correct blend of both for the mind to keep them.


    or, in an ironic turn of events, the only one unable to remember the time loop that always ends with Leo’s death is Leo.

    Summary

    Leo knows he’s stupid. Okay? It’s just – an intrinsic fact of life. Like how the sky is blue, or grass is green. Leo is stupid. He doesn’t need reminding. He knows it better than anyone.

    So if the big, red F on his latest Chemistry test could stop staring him in the face, that’d be great.

    (or: what happens when you're a teenager in high school with undiagnosed ADHD. that's it that's the fic)
