comment
Two Halves is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) and Trollhunters crossover story. The premise of the AU is that Karai is a changeling, having replaced Miwa. After the Foot encounters the Kraang, Karai gets the idea that maybe, just maybe, their portal technology could be used to bring her familiar back to Earth from the Darklands, and get her back to her family, who are badass enough to keep her safe.

For Karai, her control over Stockman is one of Mutual Benefit; both of them need the other at the moment, so neither of them can betray the other until AFTER both sides reach their goals.

Conditioned to Accept Horror
 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_1b465242
comment
Conditioned to Accept Horror: Due to simultaneously being a changeling operative of the Janus Order and Shredder's adopted daughter in the Foot clan, Karai's been through a lot, and has come to accept a lot of her messed-up circumstances as normal. For instance, after Stockman escapes, Shredder has a minor Villainous Breakdown and slashes her shoulder despite not knowing that Karai helped him. Karai is less upset by the injury itself than the fact that the reason he gave it to her, and not giving her a proper rest period for it, was stupid and illogical.

Bittersweet Ending
 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_40cc0c7e
comment
Bittersweet Ending: The ending of the first story. On the bitter side, Karai was severely injured rescuing Miwa, she has a long recovery ahead of her, and there are still threats like the Kraang out there. On the sweet side, Miwa has been successfully rescued and reunited with her family, Karai is alive and recovering, and the Turtles and Splinter more or less adopt her into their family as well.

Trauma Button: Miwa has been stuck in the Darklands with only goblin to interact with for a decade and a half, so when she sees the faces of the Turtles she thinks that they're trying to take her away from Karai and starts wailing.

Body Horror
 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_504a1991
comment
Body Horror: Karai and Miwa's hearts were swapped in the process of making them linked, and when Karai opens the portal to the Darklands Miwa's heart is drawn to its original host to the point where Karai's chest wound where the transplant took place starts bulging out and leaking blood. Luckily, it calms down once Karai actually finds Miwa.

How Is That Even Possible?: Stockman is baffled when one of the generators for the portal blows and causes a major power outage, as they're not on the main city grid specifically to keep someone from noticing the fact that the warehouse they're in has a power bill.

Sanity Slippage
 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_62434fe2
comment
Sanity Slippage: Karai’s perspective makes it clear that the Shredder did seem to genuinely care for her once, but the revelation that Splinter was alive and his inability to destroy him and the turtles for good has sent him spiraling. When he kidnaps Donnie to replace Stockman it's unclear if he wants to hurt Splinter by detonating the Explosive Leash in his shoulder or get the science shit Stockman did more, even to Donnie (and even the chapter title is a reference to his dwindling sanity). This is in part because he's caught on to Karai being more amicable towards the turtles. Once Karai bluntly tells him how he failed Miwa, he completely snaps.

Villainous Breakdown
 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_957e5fc2
comment
Villainous Breakdown: Shredder flips when Stockman manages to escape, even giving Karai a serious slash across her back in his rage and showing no remorse for his supposed "daughter's" injuries when she (seemingly) pops her stitches from said wounds while fighting Raph. After Karai helps Donnie escape from him, Shredder flips once again. Raph even notes that he didn't know that the sounds that the Shredder is making when they try to infiltrate to rescue Donnie were ones that humans could make. When he tracks down Karai and she bluntly gives him a "The Reason You Suck" Speech, she can practically see the last thread of sanity in his mind snap.

 Two Halves (Fanfic) / int_c35cddcd
comment
I Control My Minions Through...: As in canon, Shredder controls Stockman through Fear, threatening him with the mutagen collar. Karai notes that this is a mistake, as all it means is that, once Stockman has the chance to do so he will betray the Shredder, since he has nothing to lose with his life on the line. For Karai, her control over Stockman is one of Mutual Benefit; both of them need the other at the moment, so neither of them can betray the other until AFTER both sides reach their goals.

Brainy Baby: As a consequence of being in ageless stasis for over a decade and her link to Karai over that time period, Miwa is smarter than you'd expect a baby to be. For instance, she can understand when Karai needs her to be quiet, and later seems to know just how badly Karai is hurt.
