Slight spoilers for this oneshot:
Prompt with additional info: (S/O) finds the turtles a device that holograms them as human so the boys can get around in public (before they start dating each other), (S/O) turns it off in private though if they're being affectionate with each other, as (S/O) prefers the boys' actual appearance
I wasn't sure how to describe the guys' human appearances but I covered part of the prompt and another important note please be open minded about other peoples' headcanons on the turtles' human appearance; along with no heated discussions on that matter
________________________________________________
Before (Y/N) dated one of the guys, (Y/N) sent a handmade bracelet, unaware that the material contained the same aura like Sunita's cloaking brooch.
After trying on the bracelet, the other brothers refrained from laughing, just when the turtle in the temporary human disguise, realized that the shorts and other accessories were still on.
He ended up calling April for help with the first date outfit. Still stunned about the cloaking bracelet.
But fully decides to only wear it around (Y/N).
With growing doubts of revealing his real appearance to them.
🧡Mikey🧡
He has most of the fluffy hair out of his brothers and sometimes wearing hair accessories. He also ties his shirts with a hair tie since the clothing extends to his shell.
Luckily, (Y/N)'s parents were out while he helped out (Y/N) with the extra laundry.
He melted in the warm blanket belonging to his significant other unaware that his bracelet went missing. It took a few seconds as he begins to hide under the sheet and in his own shell scared about their reaction to his turtle self.
(Y/N) recognizes the bracelet they gave to him, in one of the laundry baskets filled with clothes as they grab it, heading to Mikey's location, concealing himself in their blanket. They spot him shaking as worry displays on their face.
"I won't know what's going on if you don't tell me..." (Y/N) said as he stops shaking slightly comforted by their soft tone and asks them to turn around.
(Y/N) complies doing so as he speaks out of the blanket while sitting up.
"I relied too much on that bracelet and hopefully you don't think the real me isn't as scary..." Mikey said (Y/N) looks over to their boyfriend revealing to be a turtle mutant.
He didn't expect a gleeful reaction as they cup his face.
"Why would I be scared of an adorable turtle with the cutest smile!"
"Also it suits you!" (Y/N) said as Mikey sends his signature smile back at his partner.
"You're still gonna miss that fluffy hair though." Mikey teases (Y/N) as they pout with a hush at him while he snickers.
💙Leo💙
After a couple of weeks, he finally got the hang of applying face paint of his signature red stripes. Other accessories mimicking the red stripes didn't capture the look he missed when he didn't wear the bracelet.
When he slept over at (Y/N)'s apartment, (Y/N) was the first to wake up, noticing his bracelet still on his wrist. They carefully woke him up as he grunts, wanting a few more minutes of sleep with bed head hair.
"I just want to mention some things before you go back to sleep."
"Some of the recent dreams I've had, showed your red stripes resembling a red eared slider turtle."
"Like, it goes from a regular turtle to an anthropomorphic turtle."
"Even some, where you're like the size of a kaiju."
"But you still have that sweet nature, protecting me in those dreams..." (Y/N) said causing Leo to be fully awake.
"Is it okay if you close your eyes for a few seconds..." Leo asked staring at the bracelet then glances at (Y/N) as they follow his orders.
Leo takes off the bracelet as the light blue cloaking aura fades away while he tells (Y/N) they can open their eyes now.
He closes his eyes expecting the worst but hears...
"Those dreams actually meant something."
"And no wonder those certain weeks-"
"You're aware of that?!" Leo said as blush takes over his entire face as his partner laughs.
"Well from April."
"When she accidentally said it during a casual conversation but anyway,"
"Sure a cat or dog video is cute but turtles provide the real cuteness factor..." (Y/N) said winking at him.
He sends a hug and proceeds to quickly kiss their cheek as the couple talked about other stuff laying beside each other.
💜Donnie💜
Still has a habit of taping his glasses to his head and often does the anime glasses thing. His brothers wince wondering how (Y/N) still shows a sincere smile at him, during the first month those two started dating.
Almost close to midnight, the couple played Animal Crossing New Leaf as Donnie adjusts the island tree set up on (Y/N)'s file. (Y/N) noticed his head with the area above the temple tips had a small amount of plastic tape around his glasses. Donnie spotted them scooting closer nearly hitting the bracelet on his right wrist.
"Can I help you with something?" Donnie asked unaware of the slightly raised tone in his voice.
It stopped (Y/N) but, they managed to speak.
"I'm a bit surprised why the tech genius would put plastic tape around his glasses."
"Just curious that's all." (Y/N) said with their eyes filled with truth.
Donnie closes the 3DS, putting it near a safe area as he sighs gripping on the bracelet.
"I strongly urge that you don't freak out about this..." Donnie said as (Y/N) nods witnessing one of his rare instances trusting his gut than his usual overthinking.
(Y/N) shields their eyes from the bright purple light as it alters their boyfriend's appearance.
"Oh, that explains the taped glasses!" (Y/N) said as Donnie's eyes widen stunned by their reaction.
(Y/N) takes their 3DS back as they talk.
"You mentioned with urgent matters 'don't freak out about this'."
"And on a different topic."
"I'm really jelly at your make up skills."
"And I suppose you went through a lot of trial and error, perfecting the strong eyebrow game." (Y/N) said as they saw a smirk from him back to his usual self.
As the turtle recalled the moment he started applying that particular make up on himself.
❤️Raph❤️
When the weather got chilly, he over-explains the fashion style of the holes near his elbow around his jacket and other long sleeved clothes.
(Y/N) reassured him it's fine as they hold his hand.
Raph fake smiles wishing he could just tell (Y/N) about his whole situation and envied the dreams where he actually did it.
The two teens made it back to (Y/N)'s apartment, after delivering a gift for (Y/N)'s aunt. Once inside, (Y/N) noticed him more silent than usual as they begin to speak.
"Something on your mind, Raph?"
"You only waved at-"
"It's fine (Y/N)!"
"No need to worry-"
The bracelet gets caught on the coat rack unaware that his human form turns back to a snapping turtle mutant surprising (Y/N). He recognizes his three finger turtle hands and other features, now halting any further movements as (Y/N) walks forward then delicately removes the bracelet.
He heard a giggle from them as they look at him with a soft expression.
"Bugs aren't my thing but, I'm tempting to do a casual wear outfit based off of Mothra."
"Since you're a huggable version of Godzilla, Raph..." (Y/N) said causing the large turtle to blush slowly flustered by his shorter partner.
