turtles all the way down

Summary:

Jason doesn't want to talk to his family. He just wants to help his new roommate (who may or may not be a turtle) find a way home to his alternate dimension. Unfortunately Jason's family doesn't get the memo.

Notes:

This is for the 2025 HTML Tryhard fic event!!! Check out the tumblr here and check out the other fics!!! they are so cool!!!

Stole this code from Jihn which you may or may not recognize from QAB thanks bestie ♡ ilysm

This is MOSTLY TMNT 2012 bc that's the one I'm most familiar with but tbh you can probably imagine any donnie you want it's pretty nebulous (except rise and mutant mayhem those are pretty specific lmao)

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

what do you know about the multiverse? Wow! Hello Jason! So nice of you to message me after going dark with no warning for two months! :) I'm fine thanks for asking. barbie I don't have time for this 🙄🙄 The multiverse is really more Tim's area of expertise. You might want to talk to him about it. UGH if I wanted to talk to Tim I would :) Where have you been, Jason? around Damian was convinced you'd gone and gotten yourself buried again. Not even Roy knew what you were up to. why are you talking to Roy??? don't talk to my friends I wouldn't have to if you talked to me yourself ☺️ ugh whatever Jason, wait. I'm just worried about you. What did you need to know? Undelivered Are you kidding me?? Undelivered 🙄🙄🙄 Undelivered I know I can just unblock myself whenever but it's the principle of the thing. Undelivered

Hey get some milk on your way home why do I always have to get the groceries Oh I'm sorry!!!! Is this inconvenient for you Jason??? Let me just go on down to the store right now :))) because that is a thing I can just do!! Certainly nothing can go wrong!!! No one will look twice at my green skin or tall stature :))) I'm taller than you :) Jason. ugh whatever I'll get the fucking milk Thank you oh so much gracious landlord 😊 🙏 you're worse than replacement I still don't know who that is :) Also I need more processing power. Pick up another harddrive If you would. another????? I just got you one Sorry :) tearing a hole through the fabric of reality takes up a lot of RAM Unless you WANT to ask your dad for help? whatever I'll get the fucking thing Thanks ever so much 😊 you're the fucking worst I shouldn't helped you when I first saw you Should've left you to become turtle stew Oh is that what you call it? 🤔 I distinctly remember you punching me in the face you electrocuted me!! AFTER you tried to shoot me!!! haha yeah at least I don't have to worry about Black Mask for a while I've got a few things to take care of but I'll be home for dinner before we go out Okay see you then :) see you at home

 



  Dickhead

31st and Covington omw damn did they really think this would work? I know, it's embarrassing. For them. A little bit for me too if I'm being honest. Wanna see how loud they scream if I jump down there right now? lololol bet HAHA HOLY SHIT I THINK THAT GUY SHIT HIS PANTS lmk if you need an assist looks like you're fine woah careful with the staff we still need to ask them questions bet replacement could learn a thing or two from you if he ever wanted to learn how to take someones head off with his bo wow you really you really just took out 15 guys in like 3 minutes 5 minutes and 14 seconds nerd Also can confirm on the shit. It's RANK. Not cowabunga at all, as Mikey would say. I left the one who looked most like the leader, based on the douchey leather jacket and the face tattoos, mostly conscious if you wanna come down here and ask him some questions. hey now I wear a leather jacket Oh I'm aware :) hm ok coming down 👍

 


  Tim 😒

hey what's up with the giant turtle in your apartment? wh WHERE ARE YOU :) guess REPLACEMENT I'M GOING TO KILL YOU i mean u can try but it hasn't worked so far so like

 


  D

YOU LET HIM IN THE APARTMENT??? “Let” is such a strong word. More like he disabled your security and came in through the window and started eating the leftovers before he even noticed me. I was sitting at the counter the whole time, I don't think he's slept in a while. GET HIM OUT I thought you said he was your brother?? HE IS BUT UGH Whatever omw ? Oh I think he passed out standing up. We were talking about quantum physics and he just sort of... Stopped talking. I'm gonna move him to the couch. if he's asleep just toss him out the window :/ Jason I'm not going to throw your sleeping brother out the window. why not he'd be fine if that's what you're worried about It's not. he better not have eaten the carbonara 😶 D DID HE EAT THE CARBONARA He's really skinny he needs to eat more :( DONNIE IM GOING TO KILL YOU

 


  Roy

letting my brother and my roommate meet each other was a mistake :/ they're insatiable u have a roommate?????? since when??????? and I didn't even let them technically!!! Tim just broke in because this family has no regard for privacy!!! roommate?????? now I can't get them to stop talking about the mandela effect or whatever and they keep eating all my food :/ I work hard to make this shitty apartment a home!!!!! jay pls I slave away all night and day cleaning up crime alley and then I get home and I have to clean up here also!!! you'd think Donnie would help clean up but nooooo he has to focus on not fucking up the timeline and finding the right universe bc apparently the dolphin universe wasnt good enough for him dolphins???? he wants to be with his brothers but newsflash!!! brothers fucking suck I am example number one!!! r u saying u suck or ur brothers suck I dont know!!! both?????? I'm tired yeah i bet buddy :( want me to come by and help out for a few days? no you have Lian rn don't wanna put more on your plate i could bring her shed love 2 see u no :( then I'd have to explain Donnie :/ u shld still explain donnie lol who is that roommate u didnt tell me u had a roommate!! sorry it's new that where you disappeared 2? yeah sorry Barbie said you were worried she said that? not in so many words but it's been a weird couple of weeks lol i bet let me know if i cn do anything it's fine actually I just I hate people being in my space I kno:( Tim's..... fine I guess he's been helping d and I know d has been feeling cooped up in the apartment but he can't really go out during the day and I've been crazy busy with Crime Alley stuff so he can't always come out with me at night and I know I've been weird bc I'm feeling like? claustrophobic?? with this many people around all the time and I want to rip off my skin but if I say any of this to dick he gets that sad kicked puppy look and if I yell at Tim he'll be sad and i'm trying not to be around so I dont say something I'll regret but then DONNIE is sad and I just u sure u dont want me 2 come? that'd just be another person in my space I think I would instantly combust just burst into flames again sorry :/ np man!! just lmk ❤️ thanks ❤️

 


  Dickhead

Donnie right? Tim said you two get along well 🥰 tim talked? right QAIT BO JAY BOT OIEK GE DIDNT TALK TALK DONT KILL HIM Talk as in “don't bug him about this dick this is important” and “respect his space on this one don't make him talk about Dee if he doesn't want to” and “I'm lucky he hasn't kicked me out yet I don't wanna push him” He's being annoyingly mature about this whole thing 🙄 hm whatever Donnie and I aren't dating you saw him right? Yeah but I didn't want to judge!! Love is love!! Wally thinks Killer Croc is hot 🙂 what are you being serious Yeah? Wait Maybe that wasn't something I was supposed to tell people Jay you can't tell anyone I said that Jay? Undelivered JAY COME BACK Undelivered 😭😭😭😭 Undelivered

 


  D

Hey stop blocking ur brothers ????? literally how do you even know that Babs and I talk. again: ??????? don’t talk to Babs 🙄 Sorry you think there's a chance I’m stuck in a universe with the smartest women to ever exist in the multiverse and I’m NOT going to talk to her??? ugh I hate everything about this Yeah well suck it up ♥️ I would KILL to see my brothers again You were literally brought back to life and you have another chance to be with them and you choose to isolate yourself? And you wonder why you have depression 🖕 you don’t get it No I don’t get it! Tim is trying so hard just to exist in your presence and I know Dick has been trying to reach out What about your youngest brother? what about him Maybe you should try spending some more time with him? I spend plenty of enough time with the bat brat 😐 Sure. fuck you J trust me when I say I get it Brothers can be the actual worst They always get in my space and mess up my lab and want to spar and Raph gives me the worst noogies and makes fun of my inventions and Mikey is always cooking weird things he wants me to try and Leo always has to act like he’s so much better than us just because he’s the leader And I just Sorry I get it They can be a lot, but I would give ANYTHING to see them again I know I just fuck I miss them Jason yeah I’ll there’s a lot of baggage stuff you don’t know and sometimes I just get so mad and I can’t I don’t want to hurt them You’re hurting them by staying away I yeah I won’t promise anything but you’re right I’ll try Thanks man Sorry I don’t mean to dump this all on you I’m just Even with Tim’s help I feel like I’m not getting any closer. Whatever the Krang did it fried everything on me and scrambled my universal code so it’s hard to try and narrow it down to the RIGHT universe and I I just want to go home you’ll get it if we have to we’ll ask the big man You’d talk to your dad? For me? yeah dude I yeah the batmans not THAT scary Lol Thanks Jason ♥️

 


  Tim 🙄

i didnt tell dick ab d :((( i mean i did in the way that i said “dont bother j about d and dont tell b bc hell be completely unreasonable” its not even like d is from an evil alternate timeline believe me i would know hes just from an alternate universe where a substance mutates humans and animals and also they have some freakass aliens ig like he just wants to get home and i get that but b is weird about au procedures and timelines n stuff even tho this is like and even running universe like parallel and we dont even affect each other and actually the timeline is usually a speedster thing anyways and i already talked to bart and he said its fine so its not like b would know anything more or be able to help at this point effect what you said affect but its effect oh ok uh I'm not mad at you are you sure??? like you can be thats ok I'm not hm I'm not mad Tim. 😬😬 full period huh? it's just it's not you 😐🙄 are you seriously “its not you its me”-ing me rn it is me!! I'm not right there's something wrong with me I came back wrong and the pit only made it worse I can't always control my emotions or my actions so I have to remove myself from the situation sounds pretty responsible to me you don't get it Tim have you tried bipolar medication? maybe youre just having manic episodes I'm not bipolar Tim!! r u sure bc i was looking into it and I think you fit a lot of the criteria for what the dsm5 says and i think maybe you should get that checked out i know you have some hangups but tbh harley is pretty good if you dony want to worry about finding a therapist or psychiatrist?? idk one gives you meds and one you just talk to but i can forge you a doctors note for whatever meds she just knows like the type and stuff but shes pretty good to talk too also if you want to just do that and not do medication Tim. do not diagnose me. :/ Tim I'm serious this is okay this is a separate conversation we need to have but I cannot have it right now I'm not mad at you about the Donnie thing or the dick thing or whatever ok if you say so I'm not mad I'm I'm sorry I flipped out on you yesterday I've been feeling overstimulated? uh overwhelmed lately I'm not used to people being in my space all the time but you're helping Donnie and he likes having you around and I I also it's fine if you want to come by uh ok I'm not mad! i know!!! sorry im im trying not to overanalyze this you thanks whatever I'll try to leave faster if I know I'm going to flip out again or uh what or you let me know? and i can leave for a little bit? pick up food or just do my literal day job instead of slumming it with d all the time haha i should probably go into the office anyways tams gonna blow a gasket probs r&d has been wanting me to stop by so like wait have you been doing your job from my apartment??? i mean im still going to meetings and stuff but im just dealing with emails and stuff from my laptop im using like 3 different vpns if ur worried about it that's not Tim you've been working on the thing with Donnie almost constantly yeah? and you're doing patrol yes and you're still doing your full time job well its not really full time anymore b gets this constipated look on his face if i log close to 40 hours now which is ridiculous most of it is organization and answering emails lol and everything else that's involved in running a business haha yeah but i mean mostly b handles that stuff now but a lot of ppl dont know about the switch over or the switch back i mean that b is in charge again when do you sleep what do you mean i took a nap at your apartment yesterday I mean besides that uh i caught like 20mins behind an aircon unit on patrol last night and i mustve fallen asleep at breakfast bc i woke up with a pillow under my head and everyone had left already lol when was the last time you got 8 or more consecutive hours of sleep im more of a power nap kinda guy like did you know this one guy did some research and you can pretty much eliminate long sleep by timing it right and you take a bunch of naps and you just drop directly into rem sleep and actually rem sleep is where you actually get rest hm this is dont be weird about this :/ weird yea like i tried explaining it to dick once and he got this look on his face and not even b got it he was like “are you over working again chum?” and damian implied that I was “letting myself go” and that no one would want to pay my dowery if I was undesirable or smth and Alf? lol right okay so hm what you should come over for dinner I'm making fajitas uh are you sure? yeah Donnie could use some socialization so could you tbh hey :/ but uh yeah ill come by cool cool :)

  D

Hey do you think you can get me some of that metal we were talking about? Like for real? The alien stuff? Or whatever it is. The more I look into this the more it stinks of the Krang like they’re the ones interfering with my universe so maybe if I had something from THIS universe I might be able to counteract it. But obvs I won’t know until I have some to test it out with. yeah I'll have to pull some favors but like I know someone who knows someone You know a lot of someones I’m finding 🤔 it's my dad's ex/baby mom she has a lot of connections and also owes me like 50 favors Lol??? What is your life Glad people are chill about mutants here tho 🙂 Does your brother have a hard time at school? what What? why would he have a hard time at school I mean he does but that's because he's emotionally constipated and was also raised in the middle of nowhere No you're right that was insensitive dw ab it uh okay but yeah I'll ask if she's heard of it Thanks Jay! 👍

 


  Talia

hey I need a favor So wonderful of you to think to message me, Jason. jesus It’s not like I’ve done everything in my power to help you, to care for you. Not like I wiped bile from your mouth or cleaned you after your dip. Not like I watched after you while you were virtually brain dead and completely inept. Not like I kept an entire fleet of assassins from ending your life, or kept you hidden while you insisted you weren't ready to face your father, or gave you funds while you established yourself in your little “Crime Alley”. But do you ever think to thank me? Or to even contact me once? No, of course not. You only cared about your little plot of “revenge”. Did you even help your younger brother settle in at all? Or were you too busy playing crime lord with your petty need for vengeance. oh my fucking god But yes, of course you can ask me for a favor. Lord knows I haven’t helped you enough before without a single thanks in return. What can I do for you, Jason? Overthrow Moldova? Find Davinci's long lost manuscripts? I just need some nth metal Oh, is that all? One of the most rare and unheard of metals in the entire world? That’s all you need? look I can ask someone else you just said I could contact you for things I suppose I did. Goodness knows one doesn’t become a mother expecting anything in return, it is a largely thankless job. you do know you're not my mom right? I see. Talia please Incredible. The first manners I’ve yet to see from you. look if you don’t want to No, no. I didn’t say that. I’ll provide you with the material you’ve requested. I only request that perhaps in the future you think to reach out to me before you need another unrealistic favor. uh yeah sure thanks Of course, darling. ♥️ ♥️

 


  Demon Brat

It has not escaped my notice that you recently had a rendezvous with the rest of Father’s strays. Sans Father or myself. With a virtual stranger, might I add. Who you’ve apparently been living with. And who, by all appearances, knows your vigilante identity. you been stalking me kid? I would hardly call it stalking. I am keeping a close eye on the ruffian that Father calls his children. It is in my best interest to protect his name and ventures. You do have a habit of going off the deep end, and as a result I must keep closer tabs on you. right well stop that Why is it that you are cohorting with a mutated creature such as that? Surely you understand the dangers of colluding with outsiders. Donnie’s not dangerous Its name is “Donnie”? Interesting. HIS name is Donnie and I need you not to say anything to Bruce Why on earth would I do that when you are clearly concealing an unknown man from him? Father should be aware of all things that happen in this city. How did this even happen? Do we need to worry about other mutations happening to civilians? god ok just I told D I’d try and be chill but jesus kid ok I don’t want to tell B because he blows the smallest things out of proportion and we literally have this handled! Donnie is a mutated turtle from an alt dimension so there’s literally no need to worry about that Tim and Babs are helping and we’ve already contacted the speedsters and it has nothing to do with time travel so literally don’t worry about it and don’t tell B If my understanding is correct you are implying that your turtle friend was a turtle originally? Not a human? yeah Interesting. Alright, I won’t inform father of your escapades or your little turtle shaped secret. wow uh thanks Damian In exchange. of course I wish to meet this... turtle man. god why fucking not! everyone else has already seen the apartment! what the fuck ever sure come over and see the latest Gotham circus attraction Don’t be uncouth. I’ll be there Friday. whatever

 


  D

Hey uh Not to alarm you but there is a small child with a sword in your apartment. ... He’s measuring my head and asking about my dietary habits. GOD DAMN IT that’s Damian I told him not to come over until tonight I’ll be there in a bit Oh your brother?? Okay lol I was worried an actual rando child had managed to break in but that makes way more sense. I was not expecting him to be so human actually, esp bc you always call him demon brat but huh. He’s telling me I shouldn’t be eating pizza and that the grease is bad for me, lol. Wait J oh no he’s drawing up a meal plan. He’s doing actual math right here in front of me as he googles what tortoises eat. ... he just asked me for my weight. Is now a good time to tell him I’m not a tortoise? Jay where ARE YOU COME HOME RIGHT NOW YOUNG MAN Oh god he’s trying to get me to go to your dad’s batcave so he can “run more accurate tests” and find out if you’ve been taking proper care of me. JESUS JASYON Oh ok there you ar

 


  Dickhead

Hey 🙂 Dami said he had a really good time at your place thx for spending time with him ♥️ whatever almost gave D a heart attack Sounds like they had a fun afternoon! that’s one way of putting it I’m really proud of you Littlewing ♥️ ew don’t say shit like that Even if it’s true??? I’ll block you again Lol ♥️

 


  DO NOT ANSWER

Jason, it has come to my attention that a large amount of Ninth Metal is being transported into Gotham Bay under one of Talia’s known pseudonyms to one “Todd Peterson”. Do you happen to know anything about this? Jason, I can see that my previous message was received. I expect a prompt response otherwise I will have to assume the worst. I am trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. Jason. Undelivered Jason, don’t be childish. don’t just unblock yourself wtf???? Answer my question, Jason. Why would you need that material? Are you aware of how dangerous it can be if used incorrectly? You’re smarter than this. maybe I’m not! fuck off!! Jason. Undelivered

 


  D

hey so remember when I said I’d message my dad? You didn’t do that, did you? I didn’t do that no And? and he found out about the shipment of super rare and suspicious metals into the port of Gotham bc he knows everything that happens in this goddamn city and now he’s going to be extra anal about everything and he’s probably going to start stalking me again which is apparently how this family shows love fuck Hey, it’s gonna be okay Jason. He’s your dad, right? We’ll just explain the situation to him! He’s bound to be a little sympathetic to my cause, right? You said he’s family oriented. And also he’s a literal bat man! Mutants unite and all that. what one sec dami’s messaging me

 


  Demon Brat(affectionate)

Todd. Todd answer me. Todd, father is heading to the location of your most recent safe house as we speak. Hide your turtle, man! WOAH UH THANKS Do not say I have never done anything for you. Actually, Donnatello has just informed me that you are too late. I send my regards. Would you like me to send Timothy as reinforcements? I would attend myself but unfortunately I am stuck at “school”. Todd? Jason? yhasg yeahfie fine its fine Hmm. jesus as he always hugged that tightwhat the fuck Ah, yes. As Richard would say, a “standard dad hug”. how do you still have ribs wait omfg wait I can’t tell anyone else do you swear to secrecy Todd, I mean this sincerely when I tell you I would never in my life swear to you anything. yeah but like ok fuck it don thought that b was like an ACTUAL bat just a larger than life bat man that raised a gaggle of human children Oh, I see. That is rather humorous. L.O.L. HAHA never do that again kid Agreed. I am... glad father did not do any irreparable damage to you or to Donnatello or to the situation at hand. fuck me too kid thanks again for the heads up. Don’t expect it again.

 


  D

I can't believe you thought he was an ACTUAL bat SORRY HIS NAME IS THE BATMAN BAT MAN IMPLYING BOTH BAT AND MAN MY DAD IS A LITERAL RAT!!!!! what but you're a turtle??? AND YOU'RE HUMAN!! I WASN'T GONNA JUDGE!!!!! lol

 


  Tim

hey so uh im over at ur place ok thanks for letting me know but I already knew you were coming over no i know but uhhhh what cass is here??? like with me and d in your apartment currently huh ok ???? ur not like pissed??? no but thanks for the heads up ummmm yeah sure np???? I’ll be home in about an hour I’ll pick up extra guac for Cass um ok cool cool see you soon :) UHHHHH

 


  D

So. Is Cass.... just like that? yes No, I mean is she... Uh You know what? Nevermind 🙂 dude what you can’t just say something like that and then not finish your thought I just don’t want to be offensive well now you have to tell me Okay uh Was she, by any chance, raised by evil ninjas? She reminds me of my sister Half sister? Whatever. huh was not expecting that but yeah kinda her dad raised her to be a killing machine or whatever you have a sister?? Yeah, she was raised by my dad’s like arch nemesis to think that he (my dad) had killed her mom (and their whole clan?? unclear) and also to think that my dad’s arch nemesis was her actual dad. It was a whole thing. We’re chill now. your dad the rat? He wasn’t always a rat! hmm what does that mean My dad’s Japanese and when he was in America (bc he had to leave after the whole “his entire family was dead” thing) he got hit with some mutagen and then turned into a rat and we got turned into bipedal turtles. so it works both ways??? Yeah dude. he’s japanese????? Why did you think I spoke Japanese??? idk!! I just thought you were a weeb or something 🖕 My last name is Hamato! you have a last name?? wait so you didn’t clock damian or anything? What do you mean? Damian was raised in a literal assassin cult the same one Cass’s dad worked with sorta I Huh No he’s just a kid to me. huh Wait does that mean his mom lol yeah The one who got us the Nth Metal???? yeah HUH Win one for crazy assassin cults. they can be helpful sometimes who knew

 


  DO NOT ANSWER

Jason, I have taken the liberty of reaching out to Hawkman and both he and Hawkgirl are open to coming down to Gotham to speak with your guest about Nth Metal as well as the proper safety protocols necessary as it can be quite reactive. They are also rather interested in how you came to acquire such a rare material. HA what did you tell them? I told them the truth. which was The Red Hood has many outside sources and connections, and that both names on the shipping container were pseudonyms with no prior history. lol I trust you to make sure Donatello remains responsible with the Nth Metal. yeah whatever thanks Of course, Jason. You You are my son and I only want to help you. And your friend. g yeah cool I’m I’ve got some things to catch up on I’ll speak with you later, Jason. sure

 


  D

after a super stilted convo with B turns out Hawkman and Hawkgirl are gonna come by and give you a crash course on the nth metal And are they actual hawk people? Or Humans? lol THIS IS A VALID QUESTION JASON. It has become clear I apparently can’t trust anyone's “super hero” name in this universe. nah as far as I can tell they use the metal to fly or smth wings are probably even fake At least they HAVE wings. lol

 


  Tim

walking into ur apt and just seeing carter hall hanging out with d was a wild experience let me tell u who hawkman oh yeah they’re working on that metal stuff to see if its like viable for d to even use oh that makes sense i was just gonna hack the jla computer later but this is easier you were “just” going to “hack the justice league computer” babs was gonna help sure oh wow huh what? hawkgirl just made me hot chocolate I told her to stay out of my kitchen AH what??? JASON ITS SPICY what???? I DIDNT EVEN KNO THEY MADE HOT CHOCOLATE SPICY JASON SHES LAUGHING AT ME lol DON’T LAUGH AT ME TOO JASON IM IN PAIN Tim you can’t even handle most barbeque sauce BBQ SAUCE IS SPICY it’s literally not 😭 you’re fine drink some water no ur water tastes bad :(( it tastes like water??? tastes like BAD water all water tastes the same rich kid that is literally not true have u ever even had disani? no what is that the worst bottled water EVER its the stuff they give u during school testing and its so nasty okay :/ whatever AAAA I FORGOT IT WAS SPICY AND TOOK ANOTHER DRINK stop drinking it??? but it tastes good :( oh my god when are u coming home :( come make me not spicy hot chocolate :( I still have a few meetings to sit through arent u the boss tell them to f off and come make me hot cocoa :(( lol I’m not just going to tell my guys I have to leave early to make my kid brother hot chocolate I’ll lose any cred I have with them oh what nothing just you uh called me your brother oh well technically you are right yeah ofc yeah don’t make this weird dude no im not sorry sorry ugh this shit’s embaressing so don’t make me say it again you’re my brother and I care about you oh! okay uh i care about you too :) great we both mutually care about each other :) I’m making you the spiciest hot chocolate to ever exist on the face of this planet when I get home jason no :(((( lol 💔 😂

 


  D

You sure you don’t want me to patrol with you tonight? I can. Haven’t been out in a few nights. Maybe it’d be good to stretch my legs. nah you said you were close to a breakthrough keep working I just didn’t wanna be cooped up anymore I’ll be back in a few hours Okay, if you’re sure. I really am close... lol Like the connection is almost there!!! Before Carter left we even managed to pinpoint the sector my universe should be in! Like not the exact number but it’s there! And we already negated whatever sort of scramble the Krang had implemented to block detection. Now it’s just a matter of finding the right one! The dimension jumper should work too but I don’t want to test it until I have the right universe locked on. They’re pretty interconnected and I don’t want to risk anything. Also hoping the Krang don’t immediately sense me and I can get word out to my brothers before they descend lol. God Jason I could literally see my brothers tomorrow! Or probably more like next week depending on how long this takes but I could see my dad. Like! It’s literally so close! Also Casey and April! You and Casey would get along like a house fire lmao. yeah that’s great D Uh. You okay? no yeah I’m fine it’s just Just? I’m happy for you Okay? but also it’s only been a few months but I’m used to you hanging around Awwwwww 🥺 you’re going to miss me? shut up Lol, J it’s not like we’ll never see each other again. isn’t it? Well, gonna be honest I’m not sure if we have the Nth Metal in my universe but we’ve dealt with dimension travel before and now that I’ve built a multiverse handheld port once the second time will be a lot faster. Especially when I have my lab back. And I guess having a portal between our dimensions could be risky considering your rogues and our ninja/aliens. But even if we can’t figure out how to open a solid portal there’s always always? D? D are you there? Donnie? Undelivered fuck Undelivered

Hey Jay 🙁 Tim told me you haven’t been at your apartment lately? I know you’re going through a lot but we’re here for you! Whenever you want to talk ♥️ Jay? You know, I honestly wish you’d block me or something lol We miss him too Jay 🙁

 


  Roy

you didnt have to leave like that ur fine I lost control ur grieving!! its ok to lose it sometimes its ok to not be ok that sounded kinda dumb but u know what i mean I scared Lian she knows youre hurting I still shouldn’t have done that well yeah freaking out on a 4 y/o is pretty uncool but none of us are perfect pretty sure ive said way worse tell her ur sorry and dont do it again its fine it’s not ill just tell her turtles make u sad!! don’t make your daughter stop drawing turtles because of me that’s stupid I’m stupid ur not stupid well not about this he’s not even dead yeah but u still miss him :( yeah I do come back and apologise to lian and we can have waffles for dinner <3 ok

 


  Tim

so like i kno how impossible it sounds to try n track down a universe when we dont even have anything FROM that universe to help narrow it down but honestly how many universes have mutant ninja turtles like we have to be able to find it eventually right? ive got a code im rigging up and if i can reverse engineer from the activation point maybe we can even get a lock on something concrete if we still had the multiverse handheld port don was making itd be like soooo much easier but honestly i have most of his blueprints and i was there a lot when the hawks were so i have a better grasp on the nth metal than i did before if i can just isolate the actual universe code or whatever itd be easier but if i have to sift through every single universe with mutant turtles than so be it im going to figure this out jason i promise

 


  Blondie

hey 🙁 tims been p down lately but i got it out of him and uh sorry abt ur turtle bf sorry not ur bf i dont meant to make fun of u or anything just sorry it sucks lemme kno if u need anything ♥️

 


  Barbie

The lease on the apartment lapsed so I took care of it for you. Just, you know, in case. You left a lot of stuff there, and I know Tim is still spending a lot of his time there. I think he’s been lonely but he doesn’t want to come by the tower or hang out at the manner according to Dick. Kid’s going to work himself into the ground. Honestly I don’t know if it’ll even come of anything but I can’t bring myself to tell him to stop. Sorry, you don’t need this. Let me know if you need anything. I’m always here for you Jay ♥️

 


  Cass

🐢 💔 ☹️ yeah ♥️ ♥️

 


  Tim

so! turns out there are A LOT of universes with mutated turtles that fight crime you would not even believe how many literally turtles all the way down ive been trying to sort through them this past week but havent had any luck i just i cant believe there wasnt any sort of trace at the site like it HAD to have happened at the apartment but its like i dont even think it was the multiverse device don was working on its like he just disappeared like he was just pulled out of our universe with no warning there has to be something ill find it ill find him

 


  Dickhead

Roy said you were staying with him I’m glad you’re safe Sorry, I know you don’t like when people talk about you but I’m just worried You don’t have to respond to me but maybe talk to Tim? He’s sort of... spiraling. I keep thinking he’ll give it a rest but when has Timmy ever been known to let something go lol Anyways uh Love you Stay safe ♥️

 


  DO NOT ANSWER

Jason, I understand you are grieving the loss of your friend but perhaps it is better this way. He is back in his own universe with his family which, as I understood, was what he wanted. Still, I understand going through such a loss can be difficult. Should you need, the manner is always open to you. I know Alfred would love to see you. As would I.

 


  Tim

okay haha so still cant narrow down the right universe when they say multiverse they MEAN that shit lol but its fine this is so chill maybe my code messed up ill just start going through them manually i mean its not like this could be easy its not like he left behind any dna for me to use its NOT LIKE HE HAS HAIR!!! never thought id be upset about turtles being hairless before lol but here we are god did i ever tell you about that time me and young justice got volleyed through the multiverse?? fucking gem world if i see those assholes again its over for them but also if i wasnt on their shitlist maybe i could ask them for help turns out a lot of people dont like you when you just try to do the right thing go figure this has to work i have to be able to track down his specific universe and if it doesnt ill figure something else out maybe constantine can help with some spell he owes me one Tim OH HEY HI SORRY uh didnt think you actually checked this number anymore thought maybe u just got a new burner i was mostly using this to just rant into the void haha sorry Tim you need to let this go what? he’s gone Tim no there has to be a way for us to contact him multidimensional communication isnt unheard of so if i can just talk to the right people and narrow down his precise location i can figure something out Tim I need you to stop ... ok thank you

 


  Dickhead

Did you and Tim have a fight? He’s locked himself in his Nest and burying himself in cases and work again But ig B hasn’t even seen him at the office 😕 I told him to drop the whole multiverse thing he needed to let it go Well yeah but 🙁 idk I just hate seeing him like this and you think I like it? No I didn’t say that Just Idk this sucks obviously 🙁

 


  Demon Brat(affectionate)

Shall I send it to Harper’s place? nah I’m back in town you can send it to the apartment thats sweet of you kid Oh. I had not realized you were back. yeah sorry I fell off the map for a while It is entirely understandable. I will have Pennyworth send off the package promptly. thanks ♥️ Oh. Um. ♥️

HEY IS THAT D FOR REAL OR??? What? Jason what are you talking about? the number that just messaged me??? Contrary to popular belief I don’t spend all day stalking you guys across your various devices and social media accounts. I DO have a life. ok and??? Give me a sec 🙄 Oh Huh... HUH WHAT???? I can’t trace the number. okay?? No, Jason you don’t understand. I can trace any number. But this is.... out of this world??? Well I wouldn’t say that but It does look promising.

 


  Donnie??? Possibly????

O̷k̷a̵y̴,̴ ̵s̶o̴ ̶t̵h̶e̸r̶e̵'̶s̷ ̵s̵t̶i̶l̶l̸ quite a bit of interference ̷b̵u̷t̸ ̸t̴h̶e̸ connection ̸s̶h̵o̸u̸l̶d̴ ̷s̸t̴a̵b̴i̸l̴i̶z̷e̷ over time̸.̵ ̷ ̷ HOLY SHIT DUDE how????

Oh, no. I̸t̶ ̴w̴a̶s̴n̶'̶t̴ ̷t̴h̷e̴ ̸multiverse handheld port I was making. No̵t̷ ̴t̷o̶ ̸s̶a̶y̴ ̴it doesn’t work because it D̵O̶E̶S̵ but this was pure Hamato b̴a̴d̴ luck. Apparently the K̷r̵a̷n̸g̸ didn’t mean to send me s̷o̵ ̴f̵a̵r̶ away they wanted me as a pris̸o̷n̴e̵r̴ ̴ or something, so once t̷h̵e̸y̴ ̶f̵o̴u̵n̶d the corner of the multiverse I’d been tossed too they p̵u̴l̵l̶e̸d̷ me back.

They d̴i̸d̶n̸'̴t̷ ̶e̸ven think I was dead ♥️ holy shit dude I kno̸w̴!!! So anyways I’ve been w̸o̶r̷k̸i̷n̴g̷ ̸o̶n̶ a multiverse communicator since I got back. Sorry it took me so long. I didn’t have a breakdown or anything it’s fine You m̴i̷i̶i̸i̶i̴s̵e̶d̷ me 😀 hm maybe ♥️ ♥️ Also sorry in advance for my b̵r̵o̵t̷hers. And also April. wait what

Notes:

Hi ok but what if Jason and Donnie DID kiss tho??? No takers?? ok pretend I didn't say that....

ao3 said to me "hey you know all those new lines you did so the code was easier to look at? What if I just at a
there for no reason? cool thx :)" and i said "BESTIE NO WHY PLS" and then was going through deleting all the lines before someone said "theres an app for that" in which there's a website that deletes all the extra white space and gives you an ugly block of text but hey at least the code works now

Check me out on tumblr if your so inclined ♡ and want to talk about turtles kissing robins

till next time, see you space cowboy
