Summary: Rottmnt boys have an S/O with a very twitchy nose.
Mikey:
-The first time he noticed it was when you were baking together.
-You were measuring out the dry ingredients while Mikey was mixing in the eggs.
-He couldn't help but stare, your concentrated face was adorable and you seemed so determined to get the measurements exactly right.
-And then your nose twitched.
-Face scrunched up, moving back and forth between the bowl and the bag of flour beside you, pushing the extra flour back into the bag with the dull edge of a butter knife.
-He had never seen you so focused, admiring you from his spot on the middle island.
-You must've sensed his staring because you look up at him a few moments later.
-Nose twitching as the flour dust rises around you, eyes trained on Mikey as you try to figure out why he's staring so intently. He never told you, deciding to keep it to himself.
-After that day, he continued to notice whenever your nose twitched, his eyes seemed to fixate on it every time.
-He finds it adorable, figuring out what triggers different twitches and using them to his advantage. Does your face scrunch up in concentration when you play video games? Well now you both just have to have daily matches.
-Likes to draw you with your scrunched up face, noting that it happens when you're happy or focused. He just finds it cute.
Donnie:
-Was one of the first things he noticed about you.
-He was watching you play poker with Raph, both of you starting trying your best to keep your faces straight. When you spoke, trying to slyly convince Raph you had the upper hand, your nose twitched.
-Donnie wrote it off at first, assuming there was dust in the air and he needed to check the air filters he had set up, but it happened just about every time you lied.
-He was pleasantly surprised to find this tell of yours, content with knowing you wouldn't be able to lie to him.
-As you grew closer, he was able to differentiate between different nose twitches, memorizing how your face scrunched up in disgust at certain textures, how your nose flared when Leo was starting to get on your nerves.
-It made dealing with your emotions a lot easier when he could see them. He loved this little quirk of yours, hoping you never found out why he just studies your face so often.
-He likes to keep you close and just listen to you talk, watching your facial expressions and little nose twitches while you tell him about your day.
-If you ever ask about his staring, he just gives some non-committal answer. Not only does he want to keep up his bad-boy image, but he also doesn't want you to figure out how to train your expressions. Then his upper hand would be taken away.
Raph:
-Didn't notice for a long time, but once he did, he assumed you just had allergies or something. He'd carry around tissues just in case a twitch turned into a sneeze, not wanting you to be left with a runny nose. He'd offer you allergy medicine and try to get rid of any unwanted dust, never wanting you to be uncomfortable down in the lair.
-Once he realized it was just a normal you thing, he relaxed a little, no longer hounding Donnie about the air filters and such.
-Finds it cute now that he isn't constantly worried you're allergic to everything.
-If you ever mention his chasm, he mentions your nose scrunches. Is happy to have something you can both mutually tease each other about.
-Defends you if Leo makes fun of it though. Will not tolerate Leo's BS when it comes to you, especially if you're sensitive or insecure about it.
-Just stares with a soft smile whenever you go on a rant and your nose starts acting up, he thinks it just adds to your charm.
-Will just make silly faces at you randomly, trying to copy your nose scrunches. Loves when you make silly faces back at him.
-All in all, he just thinks it's a cute little thing you do.
Leo:
-Holy cow, prepare to be teased.
-Also notices it right away, but unlike Donnie, he instantly points it out.
-Finds it cute and goofy, immensely enjoying the way your nose twitches as you go about your day.
-Will tease you about it, but will not make fun of you. Like, if your nose starts twitching as you talk, he will add sound effects to it, but he won't outright make fun of it.
-If you're insecure about it, he will tone down the teasing and compliment you more often, feeling bad he might've had a hand in your insecurity.
-If you are both into heavy teasing, borderline bullying, he will absolutely compare it to Raph's chasm and rag you about it every time you are having a teasing fight. It's okay though, you just make fun of his bald head and lack of fingers. Sure wish you could play an instrument, huh Leo.
-Will fight anyone else who makes fun of you though. That's his thing.
-Starts copying it subconsciously, his snout starting to scrunch up a little more as he talks. His brothers tease him for it. They are less kind about it. It's not his fault he just wants to be more like you.
-Like Mikey, he tries to find what triggers certain twitches and purposefully puts you in a position where your face scrunches.
-Loves your little twitchy nose.

Request: yes - Apologizes if this request is a bit vague. But maybe 2018 TMNT. You can pick whatever character you think best suits the scenario. Just head canons about y/n having an over active nose. (Examples include: nose twitching and/or scrunching) If it's too vague of a request I understand not doing it.
A/N: this was request, the prompt was for a Reader with an overreactive nose. Hope I did it justice. Apologies for being a bit absent, I've been busy. Love you all, have a wonderful day/night.
