Something weird was going on, Raph knew it. Not only had his brothers spontaneously grow into hulking leviathans, they almost seemed to think that they had always been that way. That Raph had always been the runt, a runt they teased and pushed around simply because they could.

They didn't seem to remember a time when Raph was the one to tower over them. They barely seemed to remember him being their older brother, even as an equal. The worst part was that Raph had no idea how to get things back to normal and the fact that his brothers didn't seem to want things to go back to being normal (they thought this WAS "normal").

If no one listened or believed Raph, was his version of reality, of the past, even true? If everyone around you believes in one reality and you another, which is functionally more correct? Which becomes the accepted reality?

Which becomes the new de facto truth?

Part 4 of an awesome sequence by ZandiiAngelSpit over on Twitter, featuring a ROTTMNT AU where we see Raph lose his crown as the big guy around the lair.
