Summary
Reality hasn’t quite sunk in yet, he thinks.
It’s not until he takes a step back, not until his foot crunches on something hard and triangular, that the sheer weight of what’s happened crashes down on him. His body is trembling, his stomach churning, and there’s a hot stinging pain behind his eyes as he lifts his leg to get a look at what he just stepped on.
It’s no bigger than a bottle cap. Could be some bit of debris, but no, it’s caked in blood and patterned with an unmistakable texture. The little piece of shell is like a knife—it even drew a bit of blood from the bottom of his toe. And dammit, it’s not the only piece. He’s standing in a minefield of shattered turtle shell.
Raphael thinks he might puke.

IDW Raphael reflects on his relationship with his genius brother, whose facial expressions leave something to be desired.

Summary
Growing up under attack and underground doesn't exactly set the turtles up for calming outdoors experience. When one grows up adapted to bombs and gunfire, something as simple as thunder can come off a lot more sinister.
OR
The turtles spent most of their lives underground and the rest of it under attack, so since staying in the farmhouse, natural sounds have been a lot less muffled. Safe to say, their first thunderstorm does NOT go well.

Summary
Donnie chuckled under his breath.
“What?” Raph asked.
“Nothing. I thought that squirrel seemed a little nutty.” Donnie paused, eyebrows raised, but Raph did not give him the satisfaction of a laugh. “Uh, nevermind. The fridge works fine. It’s just the lightbulb that’s out.”
“Oh, great,” Raph said. “Give it a twist and let’s get the hell out of here.”
“Mikey would’ve laughed.”
“I’m not Mikey.”
“No,” Donnie sighed. “You’re not.”
Raph wished he remembered enough about his youngest brother to understand all the nuanced layers of meaning in Donnie’s statement. But since he didn’t, Raph let it pass.
------
The M-Bomb has detonated over New York City. Having lost his family and his memory, Raph wanders through an apocalypse with nothing to tie him to his past except his brother, Donatello.
Will they survive?!?!?! (probably not)

Summary
""Finish him!" The Shredder roars, and Raph can feel his rage radiate off his shell like the fire around the room. He feels a drop of sweat run down his forehead.
Reflexively, Raphael's body moves to obey. The gauntlets around his forearms weigh him down like lead, but he presses the blades deeper, gritting his teeth.
A drop of blood wells up underneath the metal, and he wants to be sick."

Summary
Donnie’s been quiet for a moment now, which usually meant he wasn't going to speak unless prompted, but he seems weirdly focused, eyes narrowed.
“Sorry about this, man,” he says suddenly, voice a little hushed.
Raph supposes he can appreciate that. He just wishes it meant something more.
“Hey, Donnie?” He manages, finally. “Do you think I’m dumb?”

S2 Spoilers!
Raph enters the sewers with two things on his mind: gatorade and treating his scratch wound. Despite his wishes, the list of things he’s currently thinking about spiral when he happens to focus too much on who gave him the scratch… as well as who didn’t.

Second guy scanned Raph from head to toe which felt awkward, before he widely grinned. “Props on the cosplay though, seriously. You look really scary, just like the movie.”
First guy nodded excitedly. “Just about to say the same thing! You look like a monster, dude! I love it! Can we get a picture?”
Wait…
What?
Static. That’s all Raph could hear.
OR
It’s different when someone compliments your costume when your costume is just well… you. Raph learns this first hand

Summary
Raph was proud of his brothers. He really was. He grew up and got to watch all of them become so smart, so creative, so tactical. He’s proud of every art project Mikey shows with a gap-toothed smile, he’s proud of every invention Donnie pretends he doesn’t need validation for even if he doesn’t understand it, he’s even proud of all those high school chess tournaments Leo destroyed back in high school after a year and a half of pretending he was too cool for chess club. They were so, so talented, and he… was Raph. It only makes sense that they’d move on to bigger, better things.
If only that didn't somehow correlate to the constant fog and chill he feels, nowadays.

If anyone asked, his friends and family would say Raphael was afraid of bugs.
If anyone asked Raphael, he'd say he was afraid of nothing.

Summary
Raphael has never been taught how to want things for himself – only how to protect, endure, and stay behind.
So when his brothers move on without him, chasing their futures, the lair grows emptier and the days blur together. Raphael slowly disappears into the space he was never meant to fill alone.
It takes an outsider to realize what the family has overlooked.
~~~
ORR this idea won’t get outta my damn head so I have to write it out. The brothers leave for something in the hidden city - be it a career or education. But Raph stays behind, failing to realise how much their absence will affect him.
