Summary

Someone wants to gamble, but there will never be a prize.
Death is always waiting for those who stumble, and Leonardo has taken many paths through life, never once at a pace that was sustainable.
A trip is coming.
Same war, new battleground.

Summary
“You scared the absolute shit outta me tonight, Leonardo.”
It’s a raw, honest answer. Raph’s tough guy act has never once fooled anyone in their family. Mikey compared the visage once to a cat trying to look bigger than they were, as an act of protection. The bite definitely hurts, but the bark is still worse. Yet because of the tough personality, Raph is rarely one for words. He shows his affections in other ways instead. Picking up Mikey’s favorite snack while out, hitting the record button on the DVR for that Tesla documentary that Don’s been wanting to watch, learning how to brew Leo’s favorite tea blend. Silent things that he can do in the background with little to no fuss. So when that silence turns into actual words, the recipient knows how genuine their brother is being.
Or;
Leonardo purposely ignores his body's warnings, and how much it robs him over time.

Summary
Tim doesn't really want to have a therapy session with his own subconscious. Especially since his subconscious seems a little...off. Still, he doesn't regret the choices that led him here. He doesn't regret the role he had to play.
But Tim doesn't know that there's a timer ticking down over his head. A timer that Bruce and his brothers are trying desperately to beat.

Summary
It’s not like Don is doing this for fun, he reminds himself as the olive-skinned turtle makes up four fresh syringes and starts measuring out doses. He’s his doctor and his brother, he only has Mikey’s best interest at—
He blinks, eyes suddenly fixed on the band of cloth fixed tight to Don’s upper thigh. “Dude, what’s wrong with your leg?”
