RaphJoi

RaphJoi is the het ship between Raphael and Joi Reynard from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom.

Demons and Dragons
Joi and Raph run to protect Mikey from the demons, when their both attacked by the water demons. Joi is held under the water, and Raph calls out to her. He activates his chi, and is able to cut through the water to save her.

More Worlds Than One
Raph and Joi are surrounded by rock creatures and Joi asks if he has any ideas. Raph has one, and says that it's shell kicking time as he activates his chi. He then grabs the rock creature, and tells Joi to duck as he swings it into another one.

Beginning of the End
The acolytes are on their way back from recovering the second artifact, giving them sometime to themselves on the ship. Raph and Joi are alone, and he says that if she's ever in New York she should look them up. Joi says she plans to, but that they should save the world first. She also calls him "tough guy".

Later, as they fight off two demons, Joi is grabbed by one of them. Raph yells for her, but Joi just yells back for him to avenge her. Raph then causes a cave in on the monster, and says it was for her. That he'll never forget her.

Fanon
RaphJoi is a smaller pairing in the 2003 fandom. Despite this, many fans believe that Raph had a crush on Joi in the fifth season, but it's hard to tell if this was intended by the writers. Especially with Peter Laird's frequent comment that turtles don't date humans. Joi is still referred to as one of Raph's girlfriends despite them being fanon, due to Raph frequently having the most serious relationships out of any of the turtles. It is most often shipped alongside Leorai.

On AO3, RaphJoi is the most written ship for Joi. There are currently 4 written works. There is also a decent following on DeviantArt.
