Shoemaker's Elves by tFantasyFan, (PG)
Fandom: TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES
Characters: ensemble
Length: 8,790 words

Author website: Stealthy Stories
Why this must be read:
Leonardo ninja-bastards his way through conversations! Mikey acts like he actually has a brain! Donatello threatens revenge via mecha-toaster! Raphael may or may not have a Plan B that involved handcuffs! April Hatches diabolical plans!
It's pretty well acknowledged in just about every canon and pretty much all of the fanon that Donatello keeps things running around the lair. He's their mechanic, cable guy, plumber and doctor all rolled up with a healthy dash of mad scientist thrown in. So when his brothers push him into taking a few days off of being Mr. Fix-It, they're all a little surprised when things just keep getting... well, fixed.
"I mean, isn't there anything you'd rather be doing than cleaning up after everyone else?"
"Says the ninja who somehow managed to blow up the toaster," Raph muttered snidely, thirsting for vengeance for being startled. Leonardo didn't acknowledge the statement, sitting down across from his brother contemplatively. Donnie looked down at the table, considering the question.
"Well…I suppose I could take a few days off. I do have a few projects that I'd like to finish up with. And I've wanted to play around with different ideas for the security system. I was thinking I might try to install some kind of infrared sensors around the perimeter: nothing too sensitive, mind you, because I'm sure we don't want it going off every time a rat gets too close, but…you aren't listening to a word I'm saying, are you?" He asked his brothers suspiciously, having glanced up mid-explanation. Michelangelo, as it turned out, had somehow managed to sneak away from the table, and Leonardo was staring rather wistfully after him, mind completely elsewhere.
"I was listenin'," Raphael said idly. "Had no idea what you were sayin', but I heard ya." He spun one of his sai on his fingers before turning his gaze to Leo, who hadn't answered at all. Eyes narrowing mischievously, he picked up a spare piece of cereal from the table's surface and chucked it, hitting the eldest directly between the eyes.
Leonardo gave no indication that he'd noticed.
