Summary
“I don’t know what to do. All my instincts say to put my family first, walk away and get a new job as fast as I can. But maybe if I stayed on we’d be better off if it does work?”
Leo understood the stakes. The younger three were barely allowed to remain in Raph's care, let alone if they lost everything. If they were on the streets with no food for Raph, no anti-seizure meds for Donnie, no comfy bed for Mikey…
Yeah, no. Leo could totally do this. “Go with your gut. Whichever way you wanna go, I support you. And I’ll take on as many shifts as they’ll give me until you get back to your bread-winning self. Don’t even worry about it — hey Raphie, look at me.”
Raph audibly sniffed and turned his red rimmed eyes at his younger brother. Welling with frustrated tears. It was clear all over him that this wasn’t what he wanted.
But life wasn’t fair. Leo learned that a long time ago. He squished the arm in his grasp and said, coaxing and calm, “It’s gonna be fineee, I promise we can handle this. I’ve got your back.”
or: human au where leo would do anything for his family. anything.

Summary
Raph answered the phone, heart climbing out his mouth and sprinting away from him, lightheaded with worst-case scenarios as he tried to sound normal, "Leo? Hey buddy, is everything okay?"
A weird pause. It did not help the racehorse of panic, Raph struggling out of the blanket someone laid over him to sit up and stare wide eyed at the shape of his own feet. Then a stranger's voice said, intensifying the sharp alarm, "Hi, sorry, this is actually his coworker, Jacob. You're his older brother, right?"
