12 Leo explaining about how his body's basically like a breaking car that keeps getting wrecked while 87 Leo, 03 Leo, 07 Leo, Bayverse Leo and Rise Leo listen in muted horror and bafflement
07 Leo: So you've had your vocal chords messed up, your knee busted, your shell messed up, your arms strained, and your shoulder dislocated a few times???
03 Leo blatantly concerned: Good God you don't have it easy do you??
Bayverse Leo: I thought I had it bad but that's ridiculous.
Rise Leo: Lee how in the hell do you even find yourself in these kinds of situations???
87 Leo: Forget that! How the shell are you still functioning????
12 Leo with a dead serious look: Ibuprofen. It fixes my achy braking body.
Future Rise Leo seeing Future 12 Leo and Future 03 Leo. Seeing how his future in an alternate universe or timeline could have been.
He sees Future 03 Leo, who's been blinded and scarred and who's had a falling out with his two of his brothers and the last one has just disappeared into thing air despite his best efforts. How Future 03 Leo seems more bitter and tired than the present 03 Leo who doesn't carry it with him.
He sees Future 12 Leo, who's been mutated twice, with his body large and full of mutagen from a bomb that had ended up killing one of his brothers and who had caused the other two to become separated. How Future 12 Leo carries this guilt and who has the eyes of a man who once was lost in madness. So different from the present 12 Leo whose not experienced it.
Future Rise Leo looks at them, these future variations of himself and then he looks at their present selves, the three who haven't experienced the horrors that they've faced. Who haven't experienced the Krang completely wiping them out, or the Shredder and his army winning the battle for the city. Who in a way are innocent to just how horrific the world can truly be.
And then Future Rise Mikey seeing Ronin Mikey, and Future 03 Mikey and Future 12 Mikey. Seeing how he could have ended up in another timeline or universe.
He sees Future 03 Mikey, who's the leader of a rebellion, his arm taken from him and his innocence and youth snuffed out by the harshness of the world. Who's lost all three of his brothers. How Future 03 Mikey seems much more grim and serious than present 03 Mikey who's more cheerful and carefree.
He sees Ronin Mikey, who's a wanderer and a disgraced ninja. Who's had his entire family slaughtered by their greatest enemies. Who's full of nothing but rage, guilt, despair and an unrelenting wrath fueled need for vengeance. How Ronin Mikey is a complete stranger to the present Mikey's who are recognizable and chipper.
He sees Future 12 Mikey, who's somewhat lucid and small and frail. Who's lived in isolation for several years, waiting for the phantoms of his brothers to come and see him again when a bomb had torn them all apart. How Future 12 Mikey's scarily similar and yet different from the present 12 Mikey who's been surrounded by loved ones.
Future Rise Mikey sees these younger turtles and sees just how bright and innocent they are. Who haven't experienced the twisted cards that life could deal them. Who haven't experienced a family being brutally murdered by the Shredder's clan or a bomb tearing up their world as they know it. These younger turtles who haven't had the most important things in their lives be torn away from them.
These two turtles see these variations of themselves, see how they could have ended up and they can't help but feel bitter. Because even in different times and places, their futures don't seem to get any better.
It makes Future Rise Leo and Future Rise Mikey wonder if this is their destinies. If this was the unavoidable outcome for people like them, doomed to forever fight and suffer and lose everything they hold near and dear.
It's a cruel joke, the way the world has woven their lives.
12 Leo getting attacked: Someone call an ambulance!
12 Leo unsheathing his swords: But not for me-
Literally the entire group of alternate turtles: LEO N O-!
12 Leo: LEO Y E S.
2003 Splinter: We are are staging an intervention to get someone to take a break.
2012 Splinter: Oh, which of our sons-
Rise Splinter: *puts a bunch of snacks on dvds on the table* It’s you tall me, now come on, we’re watching movies.
It's a much needed intervention and when 12 Splinter tries to get the other Splinter's to help him out they pull a Brutus and make him have a break.
So it's basically 87 Splinter, 03 Splinter, 07 Splinter, Bayverse Splinter and Rise Splinter forcing their fellow rat dad to relax and 12 Splinter's got no choice in the matter sgsgsfsfsfsf.
Shredder Imagine 👊👊
Doing His Makeup/Skin Care
Shredder has a lot of free time when he’s not meditating, tending to the Foot, at meetings, or training Karai. Of course he has many other responsibilities, as all adults and super villains do, but he does have plenty of time to relax. After meeting you, his free time was filled with a few other activities..
One of which being beauty and skin care-?!
• it usually takes a lot of convincing to get him in the mood to participate in these activities. While he does enjoy spending time with you (which he’s already very gruff about showing affection), he feels silly playing with makeup and skin care and oils and creams and such..
• if you ever painted his nails, it could only be shades of grey, or just straight black. He would probably wipe or scratch it off throughout the day, especially if an employee asks about it. But usually employees don’t question Shredder about his personal life, and for good reason too…
• Even if you yourself aren’t a skin care specialist, you would still do a butt ton of research for different products and such, just so you could spend more precious time with Oroku
• Sometimes you two would stay up late and just sit in the bathroom, face masks drying, hair pinned back, chatting. You were quite literally the only one that ever got to see this side of Shredder, not even Karai was this close with him.
• Speaking of Karai, ever since you came into their lives, she was able to sort of bond with Shredder a bit more. She had a much better bond with you though <3
• If Shredder ever got tipsy, or dare I say.. drunk, enough, he might let you do his makeup. He’s loosened up a little and doesn’t have to worry about being seen. He also appreciates that you don’t care about his facial scars.
• he would never let you go full out crazy, like anything goth or drag. But some lip stick and mascara and eyeshadow won’t kill him, as long as he trusts you and the both of you are enjoying yourselves.
• if the makeup ever accidentally got left on over night, Shredder would absolutely wake up earlier than you to wash it all off before you could see it. Does he set extra alarm clocks or something when you’re not watching??
• By the way, whenever you and Shredder get to have alone time like this, all of the Foot Clan is notified not to disturb Oroku ever, unless the Turtles or Splinter are literally at his front door step. Absolutely nobody is allowed to catch a glimpse of him like this except for you.
• He’s also set clear boundaries with you to keep these personal stories between you, him, and sometimes Karai. This is more about family time - The Foot and your friends don’t need to know about the Shredder’s personal life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope this didn’t cringe anyone out too much, and hopefully I didn’t stray too far away from his actual character. ✌️
Feedback is appreciated /nf
Sleep well, dudes 💪😴
Shredder Imagine💋💋
Cold Shredder 🥶🥶
• He wears slightly more padding under his armour during winter.
• If you two decide to shower together, he might waste a bit of time and water to give you long, warm cuddles and kisses. Just to warm you both up 😉
• He trains harder and longer just to keep himself warm and active, so he gains quite a bit of muscle during Winter.
• At night, in bed, spooning is ideal.
• He orders only the warmest of blankets for your guys’ bed.
• If he ever gets sick, he refuses to ask for help. Won’t even tell you about it, will just tough it out in his own, no matter how draining and exhausting that may be.
• He loves drinking hot tea, both to help with sickness and just to warm himself up.
• You once bought him an Oodie because you thought it would be funny to see him wear it, but he never actually did lol (you wear it of course though!)
• He meditates outside, in the midday sun, instead of inside. He also stretches and such during this time.
• He has done quite a bit of temperature training throughout his life, so he’s not totally helpless when it’s cold, but he’s not invincible lol
• He’s encouraged you to take up some temperature training as well, and you’ve actually gotten somewhere with it, but it’s just up to you to decide if you actually want to continue or not. He’s not fussed over your answer. :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Idk just another quick idea on my head, sorry if this is stupid or like too short or smth 💀💀
Shredder Imagine❤️🔥❤️🔥
Shredder with Pregnant S/O💞💞
• He’ll check in on you a lot more regularly, like just throughout the day and such.
• He’ll constantly make jokes that Karai will have to raise the baby instead (you won’t let that happen of course).
• Shredder will do all house chores and make sure you’re very well rested, especially the further you get into pregnancy. Doesn’t matter how big or small the bump is, you’re not lifting a finger!
• He’ll get all of your food cravings as long as they aren’t too crazy. Pickles and ice cream is all good 👍 just don’t start asking for dragon scales in mayo…
• He’ll do that thing where he lifts your belly a little to relieve back pain as often as you want him to.
• He won’t necessarily be any more affectionate than he usually is, but you’ll get a very loving vibe when you’re around him (if that makes sense).
• He might be a bit more quiet than usual, and you’re not necessarily sure what’s on his mind. Baby names? Will he be a better father? Possible life styles? Will the baby be in any danger? Would the turtles go so low as to endanger the baby?
• He would train Karai slightly more just to make sure the baby is protected at every corner.
• May even teach you some protective skills in case the situation ever arises.
• Will always order some guards to be near in case you get into some trouble, even if it’s just members of the Foot standing down the hallway.
• You may not need those pregnancy pillows, Oroku is fully willing to be in any position to make sleep more comfortable for you. His somehow sleeps very lightly whilst sleeping like a bear simultaneously, so you won’t get any complaints outta him :p

Idk if you want me to add more to this one, lemme know-
I’ve never been pregnant before lol so I’m just going off what I hear and see often 😭😭
Some Silly Goofy Shredder Headcanons
(Very out of character!!)
• Purrs like a cat if you massage him or like play with his hair and such
• Picks you up and squeezes you when giving a hug
• If he tries to make a joke but nobody laughs, he gets all dark and serious and makes everyone laugh…
• Is easily hypnotisable. Swirling image or a swinging pendulum? Boom.
• Would absolutely love a pet cat
• Would probably really want a big scary dog but would end up settling for the most ferocious chihuahuas in existence
• Very sensitive, DO NOT hurt his feelings gang
• If something doesn’t go his way, he sits down and sucks his thumb while rocking back and forth. You can decide for yourself if this is childish or mad-man behaviour…
• You have to force him to eat his veggies
• Whenever he works out, it’s like none of the equipment weighs anything. He is a strong dude
• Only likes cuddling if your head is on his chest
• He actually does not care what you look like, as long as you’re a genuine person (I like to headcanon this for a more in-character Shredder as well because I imagine him to be a man that marries for life, so as long as you have a good connection then he don’t gaf what you look like)
• He is actually terrible at saving money.
• He 100% still takes bubble baths, you just never catch him in the act. Pink soap, bath toys, baby lullaby music in the background, the whole lot of it
~~~~~~~~~
I’ll probably continue to come back to this one every now and again, or I might not lol
Idk I just love giving silly hesdcanons to very serious characters 😋😋

Turtles Forever scenario:
12 Raph is known to be a swearer. Guy swears like a sailor if he's given a chance to. Due to this he's often got 12 Leo (aka The Mom) on his case quite a bit about it. Especially when they're thrown in with the Rise gang (one look at Rise Mikey and 12 Leo cracked down hard on the no swearing thing). However 12 Raph has a somewhat difficult time not swearing, he's not like 12 Donnie who's known for getting by with his swearing habits or Rise Donnie who swears out of his little brother's ear shot. So 12 Leo and 12 Raph come up with a compromise of sorts.
12 Raph can swear but only in Japanese and not in front of the younger turtles, since no one other than the 12 boys know the language.
So he picks up the habit of swearing in Japanese saying the nastiest things imaginable and it works out rather well. So 12 Raph keeps the habit and it's a natural response at this point so much so that he forgets about the possibility of others in the different versions of themselves and their masters might know what he's saying.
It's just an out of the blue thing when it happens. 12 Raph stubs his toe on something and without even hesitating he straight up yells in Japanese:
"MOTHER FUCKING TITS."
Completely lost in his moment of pain when he hears a cup shattering on the floor behind him. 12 Raph snaps his head up completely spooked by the sudden noise and his pain forgotten only to make eye contact with 03 Splinter who's just staring at him in shock. And it hits 12 Raph that 03 Splinter was the pet of Hamato Yoshi, who lived in Japan before moving to New York.
Which meant 03 Splinter knows Japanese.
They have a small stare down of sorts, 12 Raph just frozen deer in headlights sweating like a sinner in church while 03 Splinter just stares at him. The rat recovers and takes a deep breath before saying calmly back in Japanese:
"I would reprimand you for the use of such language however, dealing with my own son I know for a fact that it will not work. So I will only ask that you watch your mouth."
And 12 Raph pale as a ghost because he's just barely escaped the devil himself at this point just responds with a:
"Hai, Sensei. Sorry."
Before literally getting the fuck out of Dodge. Later 12 Donnie will be asking him what's wrong and 12 Mikey will be poking at his shell wondering what's gotten him so spooked and 12 Raph will hallowly say:
"I swore in front of this lair's Master Splinter."
He'll get hisses of sympathy from his younger brothers and 12 Mikey would be the one to ask what he'd said while 12 Donnie would try to tell him it's not that bad and 12 Raph would look up staring them dead in the eyes before saying:
"I literally said Mother fucking tits."
And unknowingly Rise Splinter who was passing by hears it and the three just hear this God awful wheezing noise as the shorter rat completely loses his absolute shit, laughing so hard that he literally begins to cry. Leaving 12 Raph an embarrased mess while 12 Donnie and 12 Mikey try to help their brother while also trying not to laugh at this.
Later they tell 12 Leo when 12 Raph isn't within ear shot.
And are met with their clan leader laughing so hard he ends up collapsing from the sheer force of his wheezy laughter.
Turtles Forever is mid, but i like the fact that the mirage turtles are in it!
Good for your brain to watch these ... and how refreshing
