I admit I'm not too familiar with this series but I think you did a wonderful job in bringing these characters to life! Splinter seems to have an air of long-suffering patience and you brought out the distinct personality of each young Ninja Turtle. Nicely done!

I remember that story. I was worried they WERE going to cut the baby in half.

Turtle tots are adorable just because. xD I love how they all got different coloured things, though I feel sorry for Splinter. All those stains he must get and all those bins he must look through. He is a wonderful, patient father.

I loved reading this. .Blankie ftw

Well first of all, let me say how glad I was to read this. I am ashamed to say that descriptions of hurt/anger/comfort/angst tend to not draw me in, and I despair of finding things like this.

Splinter definitely has been treated poorly by fanfic and pros alike. But we love him, yes we do! I like stories that explore Splinter's learning how to be a parent.

I like how you have them color-coding everything in the lair. Sounds just like real kids claiming something for their own. Well done.
