    Summary

    It’s been common knowledge, ever since they were tots, that Donnie was the best swimmer.
    The discovery had made a five year old Leo pout for a while, but it was true. There was no shell to get in the way of him diving underwater, darting like a swift arrow under the currents.
    And, like it was common knowledge that Donnie was the strongest swimmer, it was made aware very early on that Mikey was the weakest.
    His brothers took to water easily. They swam as they were born to do, effortless even at such a young age. Mikey, seeing his brothers having fun, had tried to do the same with a giggle and a splash.
    It didn’t end well.

    ~

    After days of heavy rain, the lair floods with Donnie and Mikey still inside. Born a soft shell, Donnie can easily survive such conditions. Mikey, on the other hand, cannot.

    TLDR: the lair floods with Mikey and Donnie still inside, and Donnie is the only one that can swim.

    Summary

    He's always been...different. whether it stems from his soft shell or from his intellect, hes divided from the others.

     

    In other words! Donnie is always the odd one out, but is that truly a bad thing?

    Summary

    Separated at mutations Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello and Michelangelo live different lives in different places.

    But due to a weird event they all meet each other once again.

    Now, as the big brother, Raphael has to bond with them and protect him like he never was able to before.

    It puts a lot of stress on him, especially if they’re traumatized and * cough cough * crazy. ( Specifying Donnie )

    But some things go good.

    Although it gets crazier.

    Or

    In which Raphael’s soft, Leo’s Leo, Donnie is literally crazy, Mikey’s mikey but with a bit more of doctor Delicate Touch’s personality, and their parents are insanely concerned for all of them. ( Mostly Donnie yk )

    He kinda has main character vibes in this but it all of them do at one point.

    Summary

    My first fic that I wrote before I started writing on AO3.

    he miscalculated.

    the claws tore through the fabric before it reached his face and all Donnie saw were two metal flashes, on on each side behind him. thats all his peripheral vision made out before he was launched forward, into the side of one of the buildings they were squeezed between. he fell to the ground, rolling over once, and gasping. rockets of pain shot across his back breifly, then nothing, as he took a deep breath, sitting on his knees with his arms holding him up.

    He looked up, and saw Raph once again find the shredders tickle spot and Leo jumping over the beast, placing the collar around its neck.

    Donnie held his breath as the ominous glowing eyes faded and the armor fell to the ground, lifelessly.

    Rupert could still remember the delicious smell of the spit-roasting softshell coated in an entire stick of butter.
    He had a certain recipe he wanted to try...

    Summary

    “You alright?”

    Mikey’s looking at him. His eyes are searching, scanning him up and down, like a watchdog. Donnie’s in the middle of getting to his feet to work, and he can’t possibly open up to him. It’s stupid. Irrational. Deplorable.

    Donnie offers back a pathetic grin. “I’m fine.” The words are quick, seamless. Mikey smiles something bright at him, the answer giving no one anything to think about, nothing to consider. Mikey is busy, busy like Donnie is, and he can’t bring himself to throw another thing onto the youngest brother.

    He feels his shell pounding. Flesh ticking like clockwork. There’s no pain, not yet, just brass bright growing stains in his flawless techwear. No one notices.

    Good. He’s got a lot of work to do.

    ///

    Or, in which Donnie is a worker first and a person second.

    (Or, in which Donnie convinces himself he is nothing more than a robot. He’ll work through the pain, work through the slashes on his shell, work through the migraines. His brothers, however, won’t stand for that…

    …If they catch onto it, that is.)
