    Summary

    “Oh boy,” Leo says, which just about sums it up. For a moment he seems a bit lost for words, rather unlike him. “You’re mad about the car thing?”

    “I don’t care about the stupid car,” Donnie snaps. That’s not really true, and his brother must know it, but he doesn’t say anything. “I hate that he lied to me like that.”

    Dad asked to spend time with him and Mikey both, but it was Donnie’s tank, and it made him feel six years old all over again. He didn’t realize how desperate he’d gotten for this kind of attention until he got a mouthful of it.

    Summary

    Donnie was predictably in his lab, the muffled thud-thud-thud of synth music just barely leaking through the soundproofing. Leo pulled on the door and found it locked. It was the middle of the night and he didn't want to wake everyone else by pounding on it, so he pulled out his phone and texted Donnie, 'knock knock'

    Donnie replied instantaneously, 'Who's there?'

    Leo smirked. 'doris'

    'Doris who?'

    'doris is locked, why do you think i'm knocking'

    The music cut. Donnie opened the heavy door and said, "That's terrible."

    "But effective." Leo replied, hands in his pockets, easy smile, even as his heart sunk like a rock at the sight before him.

    Summary

    “Would you still love me if I was a worm?”

    Donnie didn’t look up from what he was doing, typing on his laptop at top speed. “Why would you be a worm?”

    “Stop asking for specifics and answer the question.” Leo was sitting on the floor next to his bed. He’d shown up and refused to leave, even though it was four AM.

    “I’m busy, Nardo.” Donnie said, rolling his eyes.

    Summary

    "Apologies." Donnie said, stiffly, and willingly rolled his sleeve up for Leo to see. "It appears that working on the engine reopened the injury on my arm."

    "What 'injury'?" Leo echoed stepping forward again and furrowing his brow as he inspected the arm Donnie held out. Careful partial roll of the sleeve. "Why the hell didn't you tell me? And why isn't it bandaged?"

    "It was a minor burn." Donnie said, and it felt like his throat was scorched and burned with how hard it was to speak. "I ran it under cold water. It wasn't a big deal."

    Summary

    He was fine! Neon Leon!

    Or, like, he is super fine now. Did some time in the slammer aka therapy. Also spent a night there before he could convince everyone he could be a good turtle again.

    Mmm, his therapist said it was cooler when he didn’t make jokes like that.

    And, you know, the therapy wasn’t awful. Learned a lot about himself or something. Cause that’s right! He can be taught!

    It was stuff like that he could sometimes like, get stuck on stuff in his head. Sometimes. Like, he’ll think something that’s not true. But he won’t get it’s not true at the moment. And that was the hardest part.

    So he won’t be thinking something like, “Mmm, food sounds like a good idea right now. But I do have a false belief that I should not eat because I somehow ‘don’t need to.’ Or that it’s ‘not important.’ Or the biggest one of all, that ‘I can do what I want cause I control what happens to me and nobody else not Splinter not Raph not Draxum and absolutely no stupid Shredder.”

    No. The tricky part was that it wasn’t a thought, but a feeling.

    A good feeling. But it secretly wasn’t.

    Leo could spot false words a mile away. But, this was trickier. He was accidentally fooling himself.
