@genius-built-donatello

Oh THERE the heck is Leo

[othellotron9000]

Hey where the heck is Leo ...

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby has been hard at work for weeks, and she's sure that the potion to turn Donnie back from a cat will work this time. She's sure of it.]

[She drags a hand down her face and turns to look for Donnie.]

Dee? Where are you?

@othellotron9000

[othellotron9000]

[A black cat squeaks, jumps off a bookshelf and lands precariously on Toby's wings. His tail swishes impatiently. He knows why she's here.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She sighs, smiling tiredly.]

Hey, hon. You ready?

[othellotron9000]

[He hops down from her shoulders and sits on the floor. His tail flicks against the rug as he watches her.]

[toby-the-crow]

Yeah, I know...

[She pours the potion into a bowl and sets it in front of Donnie.]

What do humans say again? Bone apple tea?

[She shakes her head, too tired to try harder to remember.]

Whatever. Drink up.

[othellotron9000]

[Cat Donnie licks up the potion from the bowl. This time it works and he's returned to normal within a second.]

Oh finally, thank god --- Toby I love you!

[He throws his arms around her, squeezing her tightly.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She rattles, clinging to him.]

Thank god...

[Dropping her head on his shoulder, she sighs.]

That was... Let's never do that again.

[othellotron9000]

No argument there.

[He pats her on the head.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby nods, pulling back to look him over. There are shadows under her eyes...]

How do you feel?

[othellotron9000]

Probably a lot better than you do, by the looks of your eyebags ... You wanna take a nap?

[othellotron9000]

[He kneads his paws against Toby's shoulder as she carries him into the medbay. He looks over his shoulder curiously, long tail swishing back and forth. He stares at his friends and family, not sure how to react.]

What the HECK happened?? How much have I missed??

@toby-the-crow @hamat0leonard0 @mad-dog-red @erin-trees @all-time-champ-of-today

[hamat0leonard0]

[Leo stares at the black cat Toby's holding for a few seconds before his eyes widen, sparkling with almost a childlike joy.]

Ohmigoshh! Look at the kitty! Awww, he's so cutee!! Can I hold him?!!

[othellotron9000]

[His ears flatten back. He feels distressed by his twin's excitement, and he hisses as Leo tries to grab him.]

Don't patronize me, Leonard!!

[hamat0leonard0]

[His excitement slowly fades, turning more so into confusion. The hiss the cat made sounded familiar, but.. no. NO!]

Donnie?!

[He tries so hard not to laugh, his body shaking slightly because of it. He lets out a snort, which leads to him accidentally letting out his laughter. After only a couple of seconds, his hand flies to his abdomen as he winces, still laughing (and coughing). He can't pull himself together. His brother is a CAT! But it hurts to laugh so much. So he sits there, shifting between laughing, coughing, and wincing, for about 15 seconds.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby looks around the medbay, concerned by how full it is.]

What happened while I was a bird? Why is everyone hurt or otherwise distressed? What's going on?

[erin-trees]

[Erin scratches the side of her head and yawns.] you were wha- you know what, nevermind.

[Her tone was casual but it was obvious that she cared about the situation at hand] Mikey was gone for 2 days because he was kidnapped by the EPF so me and Leo went to go get him and we did but someone broke ribs and refused to get medical attention. And apparently Cass was also with Mikey but we didn’t see her so she’s currently missing. I genuinely thought Leo told you guys but whatever, it’s fine.

….Why is Donnie a cat, am I still unconscious?

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby blinks, feathers ruffling as she processes the information.]

Oh.... I missed a lot, didn't I?

[She carefully sits on the edge of the nearest cot, petting Donnie to calm her nerves.]

Donnie's a cat because we were trying to fix the fact that I turned into a bird. I turned into a crow because a spell went wrong. The reversal spell was interrupted, and so-

[She nods at Donnie.]

This happened. I should be able to turn him back soon, after I replenish my energy.

... is everyone okay? I mean, obviously not, the EPF were involved. You said Cass is missing?

[othellotron9000]

[The small black cat is biting Toby's fingers as she pets him. At first he was quietly growling at Leo for laughing at him, but now he just looks stressed. He's clearly still smart enough to understand the conversation going on around him, despite not being able to speak.]

[He squeaks and gets up to stretch, then turns around in Toby's lap before lying back down again, curled up in her arms.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He looks over at Toby, nodding.]

Yeah.. but we have a lead! Mike said she was at the EPF with him, so she should still be there.

how did i miss her. i should've checked everywhere.

[all-time-champ-of-today]

[Mikey suddenly sits up a little straighter when he hears his name this time, and leans over the edge of the cot.]

Cassandra's there! She has to be! They took us to that big glass box and then they took me and then she wasn't there when I came back but the building was huge! We have to go back! She was there, she was there, Leo, guys, she was there! I don't know what they did to her, t-they must have done something to her, too, they must have hurt her too, and she has to still be there!

[His words are a little frantic, a little slurred, an edge of panic to them, and he leans ever further over the edge of the cot as he speaks.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby curls around Cat Donnie, looking spooked. Her feathers are slicked down fearfully, making her look smaller.]

Dauði Jörmungandr....

[She doesn't notice that she's started picking at the skin on her wrists in stress.]

I'm so sorry, Mikey. None of this would have happened if...

[She falters, then shakes her head.]

Fuck. This is bad.

[hamat0leonard0]

[He looks away and then looks back up, his face set in determination about what he's going to do.]

I'll go back tomorrow and I'll get her. I'll bring her back. I promise.

[He's already made up his mind. He's going to go back, and he's going to bring her back. No matter what.]

[erin-trees]

[Erin’s head cocks back to look at the ceiling and she sighs.]

Leo. You are not going alone. You haven’t even had time to heal, yet.

[Her head drops down and she looks around the whole room with a tired but determined look.]

And let’s all stop blaming ourselves, ok? Things happen and we can’t change that, no matter how much we want to. What matters now is getting Cass back and recovering for tomorrow.

[hamat0leonard0]

easier said than done, since it is my fault that mikey was captured. and that we missed cass.

[He reluctantly nods, not having enough energy to actually argue. But if anyone else gets hurt because of his actions, he might just explode.]

Yeah.. yeah, okay.

[erin-trees]

[Erin gets up from the cot, stumbling a little but quickly straightens up and claps her hands together]

Ok, now that that’s kinda out of the way, me and Raph will continue to patch up Leo. Leo you do not have a choice, we will patch you up. Mikey, rest up please, you’ve been through a lot these couple of days. Toby, I’m assuming you’re going to fix-

[She gestures to Donnie being a cat] this whole situation-? I can try and help in anyway I can if you’d like, I have studied a bit about magic so I might know some stuff!

Ah right, other than me and Leo, is anyone else going to come with us?

[othellotron9000]

[...Cat Donnie has fallen asleep in Toby's lap. He's purring.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby groggily opens her eyes, grumbling. She winces as a dull pain radiates through her hands, looking down to frown at the healing cracks in her skin.]

Ugh...

[She sits up and looks around the room.]

Dee? Where'd you go?

@othellotron9000

[othellotron9000]

[Cat Donnie is dragging his hoodie into the bedroom when he notices that Toby is awake. He meows at her and jumps up onto the bed to rub against her, purring. He wanted to bring the battle shell too but it's too heavy to pull ]

[toby-the-crow]

[She smiles at him, bonking her forehead into his side affectionately.]

Mornin, Dee. Having fun?

[othellotron9000]

[He glares at her, his tail swishing back and forth. He claws at the blankets again as he stretches.]

"Having fun?" Scoff ... the audacity of this girl ...

[toby-the-crow]

[Rattling, Toby smiles apologetically.]

Sorry... I'll fix you soon, don't worry. What I meant was, what have you been up to?

[As she speaks, she reaches out to give him scritches under his chin.]

[othellotron9000]

[He melts against her hand, and his eyes close in response to the scritches. All traces of irritation are gone.]

[othellotron9000]

[He's clawing at a rug nervously, trying to calm down but feeling confused and helpless in this state. How can he even communicate with Toby anymore?? As a cat, he can no longer speak any Bird ...]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby hesitantly approaches, croaking softly. She looks exhausted, wings drooping.]

<<chosen?>>

[Sitting next to him, she runs her beak through his black fur.]

<<chosen>>

[othellotron9000]

[He bristles, but he realises that he can still recognise that specific noise to mean "chosen" from how often Toby has said it. Trying to calm down, he sits next to her and bonks his forehead into her feathers affectionately.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby chirps reassuringly, continuing to preen his fur. After a moment, she returns the head bonk and nestles close. Her eyes glow a bit, but the light flickers as she tries and fails to preform a spell. She gives up, gently flopping against his side with a weak chirp.]

<<tired>>

[othellotron9000]

[He tries to nudge her, but she doesn't want to get up. He sees his battle shell lying on the floor nearby, and so he runs over to it. He grabs his phone out of a pocket on the side, gripping it with his teeth. Tossing the phone to the floor, he paws at the emergency call button, tail flicking as his twin is dialed.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby watches him, eyes dull. Then she struggles to her feet and approaches him, calling on her magic with a raspy croak.]

<<chosen>>

[The room flashes white-]

----

[The first thing Toby notices when she wakes up is that she has hands again. She knows this because they hurt like hell.]

Owww...

[othellotron9000]

[He sees Toby return to normal, but doesn't feel any change in himself ... He starts to silently panic, a high agitated cross between a meow and a growl rise in the back of his throat, fur standing on end.]

What do I do!? I lack opposable thumbs and speech capability!! FUCK

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby blearily looks his way, then drops her head against the floor with a thud.]

Fuck.

[Holding back tears of frustration, she glares up at the ceiling.]

Why can't we just have a normal day...

[othellotron9000]

[The cat makes a "mmrp" sound before bonking his forehead against Toby and biting her cheek affectionately. His ears are still flattened nervously.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She blinks owlishly at him before relaxing and returning the head bonk.]

I can fix this. Just... give me a few hours.

[Struggling into a sitting position, Toby holds her arms out for Cat Donnie. She looks seconds from passing out.]

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie walks into her lap and curls up, ears still flattened. He's clearly deeply upset but is busy absorbed in thought, trying to think his way through the problem. Even as a cat, he needs to help her.]

[His tail flicks gently, and he purrs, trying to comfort Toby.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She gently scritches behind his ear, purring in response.]

It's okay.

[Closing her eyes and leaning back against the wall, Toby ignores the tears running down her face.]

We'll figure it out.

[othellotron9000]

[He hears her voice tremble, and his ears perk up. He squeaks at her as he gets up to see if she's crying. He proceeds to bite her arm, and then he runs off to look for her spellbook.]

[OH ... right .... He can't open their bedroom door ...]

[He starts meowing loudly and impatiently, pacing in the hallway near the bedroom.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Huffing in amusement and pain, Toby staggers to her feet, swaying a bit. She tracks Donnie to their bedroom door and sighs.]

Oh boy...

[Opening the door to let him in, Toby stumbles to the bed and collapses face-first into the blankets, exhausted. Her voice is muffled by the blankets when she speaks.]

'm sorry...

[othellotron9000]

[He skitters under her feet as they enter the room, nearly causing her to trip over him. He stops and stares at her once he realises that she's too tired to do anymore magic right now. He jumps onto the bed, and his tail flicks back and forth. But he soon gets distracted by the movement of his own tail and attacks it. There's a small thud as he tumbles off the bed.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She looks up at the sound, giving a small rattle before laying back down. A bone-deep weariness settles on her, and she chirps quietly.]

<<chosen>>

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie peeks over the edge of the bed, pupils expanding as he watches the slight movements of Toby's feathers.]

Don't pounce on her, you jerk. She's tired.

But .......

[Yeah he decides to pounce anyway. He jumps up onto her back and meows to announce his presence before hopping off of her. He digs his claws into the blankets, pulling at them.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby chirps again, sleepily smiling at him.]

Silly.

[Yawning, she rolls onto her side to pet him.]

I love you, Dee. I can fix this. Just give me... a minute....

[She starts to doze off, her breathing evening out as her eyes close.]

[othellotron9000]

[Noticing that Toby's fallen asleep, Donnie wriggles out from under her hand and stares at her for a moment before hopping off the bed. He leaves the bedroom and runs around the Lair to look for his brothers. He's meowing a lot again. In the living room, he notices his battle shell and hoodie on the floor. He grabs the sleeve of the hoodie in his mouth and starts dragging it across the floor with him.]

[othellotron9000]

[Crow Toby is wandering the Lair, looking for Donnie.]

<<chosen?>>

@toby-the-crow

[Donnie turns the corner and nearly jumps 3 feet in the air in surprise at the bird.]

Oh -- Crowby. Hi.

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby hops over, feathers puffed in both surprise and happiness.]

<<chosen! hihihi!>>

[She looks up at him, chirping.]

<<spell fix!>>

[othellotron9000]

[He returns the smile but it's a nervous guilty one.]

Uh ... Yyyyeah, about that. I still don't know what to do to fix you ...

[toby-the-crow]

[She caws at him.]

<<no. I fix. see memory.>>

[othellotron9000]

Wait, you know how to fix this?? Oh.

[He crouches down in front of her.]

So ... we use a memory spell, huh?

[toby-the-crow]

[She hops closer, chirping in excitement as she tilts her head.]

<<yes yes yes! see which spell I used!>>

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie giggles, and he shifts his position to sit on his knees on the floor.]

Okay! How do we do this?

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby hops up to perch on his leg, and her brown eyes flare white.]

<<trust>>

[They fall into a memory, hitting the wood floor hard. Toby is back in her normal body, and she looks up in confusion.]

This is... not the right memory... wait-

[Her eyes widen.]

Shit...

[othellotron9000]

Waoh ...

[He feels a wave of dizziness and a cold feeling wash over them as they enter this memory.]

Toby! You're not Crowby anymore! At least not in your memories ... Where are we, by the way?

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby trembles as she presses against his side, gaze darting around the room.]

It's-

[Two familiar voices echo from the next room over, and Toby freezes. A woman's voice, followed by a man's voice.]

No, Jacob. I'm not staying, and you can't stop me this time.

Fuck you, Ulyssa. We both know you'll be back before dark. You just can't stay away.

[A familiar couple enters the room, the woman marching towards the door. The man stalks after, feathers ruffled angrily. He shouts after the woman as she leaves, then hisses, turning toward the other room.]

Come here, you little fuckup. I know you're there.

[Toby hides her face against Donnie's shoulder as a much younger Toby peeks around the corner, fear in her eyes. Jacob pounces, and the memory changes with the snap of a bone and the scream of a child.]

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie's blood runs cold, and he squeezes his eyes shut as his body tenses. His voice is strained and full of fear.]

Toby. Why are we here.

[toby-the-crow]

I-

[Toby whimpers, curling tight as she focuses on the memory spell.]

I'm trying-

[Years flash by in the span of seconds. Years of pain and hopelessness. Toby trembles as she speeds through them, trying to get to the present.]

Where is it-

[She hesitates for too long on a memory, and that's when she freezes, not even breathing. Her expression goes blank as she barely turns her head to the side, as if listening to something.]

Shit.

[othellotron9000]

What?

[He turns his head.]

What are you looking--

[He freezes when he recognises a menacing figure.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Jacob tilts his head, meeting Donnie's gaze with eyes overflowing with shadow. It's not the Jacob from the memory; this Jacob can see them.]

[A dark smirk forms on Jacob's face, and he unsheathes his claws.]

You won't escape this time, Samara~

[Toby covers her ears with a whimper, bringing her wings around herself as she mutters under her breath.]

I'm not Samara, Samara died- I'm Toby- I'm sorry I'm sorry-

[Jacob lunges-]

[othellotron9000]

[In a flash, Donnie acts without another thought. He moves to shield Toby. Purple mystic bullets slice straight through Jacob.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Jacob's form seems to glitch before vanishing, reappearing just feet away from Donnie.]

Awww, you protect her~ Shame. It's not worth it.

[He unsheathes a set of familiar wingblades -- the same set Toby still uses -- and screeches.]

This is not your fight, weak one. She's mine.

[othellotron9000]

No, they're not!

[He's terrified, but he stands his ground and brings up a mystic shield. He can hear the wingblades scrape against the shield as Jacob crashes into it.]

[toby-the-crow]

[As the two fight, Toby sees something out of the corner of her eye. She glances at it and gasps-]

[Her mother's spellbook, open to the page she read all those years ago. They made it to the right memory, and the thought spurs her into action.]

[She feels weak with both terror and relief as she scans the page, committing the spell to memory. The next page catches her attention, and her eyes widen.]

Dee-

[Jacob lunges at Toby, claws outstretched.]

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie yelps and leaps at Jacob, whipping out a ninpo bo and swinging. There's a loud crack as it makes contact with Jacob's back.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Jacob screams, claws just inches from Toby’s face, before crumpling. His body disappears before it hits the ground, turning into shadow.]

[Toby stands frozen, not even breathing as she tries to process what just happened. Then her eyes flutter shut, and she faints.]

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie swiftly catches her once the bo dematerializes. He sits her up against the wall and gently taps her face, trying to wake her up.]

Toby? Toby, please, come on ... He's gone now, Toby ...

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby stirs after a moment, groggily opening her eyes. The memory immediately begins to disappear, fading into nothingness.]

Wha-

[She squints at Donnie before gasping.]

Dee, the spell- I know how to reverse it! We just-

[The memory breaks, and something shifts-]

[Toby opens her eyes, still a crow.]

[othellotron9000]

[Something's VERY wrong. He can feel it too. Toby's still a crow ... They failed ... but wait ...]

[He looks to his right and catches his reflection in a nearby mirror. A black cat stares back at him, tail flicking anxiously.]

[NO]

[toby-the-crow]

[Crow Toby is hopping around the Lair, heading away from the kitchen. She's carrying a spoon in her beak.]

@hamat0leonard0

[hamat0leonard0]

[He's walking around the Lair, about to go skateboard again. He catches a glimpse of something moving on the ground, so he looks down and finds Crow Toby with a... spoon? He stops in his tracks and squats down next to her.]

Oh, hey Toby! Whatcha got there?

[He raises an eyebrow, smirking. His expression is a mixture of confusion, suspicion, and eagerness (to join in on what she has planned).]

[toby-the-crow]

[She sets the spoon down and taps it with her beak, chirping.]

<<shiny>>

[Picking the spoon back up, she starts hopping down the hallway towards the garage.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He snickers a bit when she taps it, but his smirk shifts into more of a confused expression once she starts leaving.]

Wait- where are you going?! Toby!

[He starts following her, having no clue as to where they're going.]

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby leads him into the garage, where she heads right for an open air vent. The air vent is above a tall storage cabinet, which partially blocks the vent.]

[Entering the air vent, Toby caws happily and sets her spoon down on a pile of various objects. There are marbles, screws and bolts, little pieces of scrap metal from the lab, a few buttons from Mikey's craft supplies, a random acorn, and several other pieces of silverware.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He watches her enter the air vent, narrowing his eyes suspiciously. He gets on his tippy-toes to see what's in the vent.]

Oh so not only are you a crow, but you're an imposter too. I see how it is.

[He takes a few seconds to look at the collection.]

Nice collection! But uh, we kinda need the silverware to eat, Toby.

[toby-the-crow]

[She blinks at him, unimpressed, and starts preening her wings.]

<<no.>>

[hamat0leonard0]

I- [He stares at her, flabbergasted. He can tell just by her demeanor that she's giving him an attitude.]

I'll give you some of my shiny fidgets in exchange for the silverware. You can keep everything else.

[toby-the-crow]

[Tilting her head at that, she chirps in curiosity and hops closer.]

<<shiny?>>

[hamat0leonard0]

Ye-yes? I think? Shiny, very shiny. I can go get them right now. Wanna join?

[He holds out his hand for her to perch on.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She chirps again and hops onto his hand.]

<<shiny love shiny>>

[Tilting her head at him, she blinks expectantly.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He nods and smiles, holding out his other hand to point in the general direction of his room.]

Onward we go!

[He begins walking to his room, humming a random tune.]

--

[He walks over to his desk, sifting through a bowl of fidgets, grabbing some of the shiny ones. He holds them in his hand, a few inches away from Crow Toby.]

Ta-da.~

[toby-the-crow]

[Leaning closer to inspect the fidgets, Toby croaks happily and taps a fidget spinner. This causes the fidget to spin, startling Toby. She launches herself into the air in surprise.]

<<SHINY MOVE>>

[hamat0leonard0]

[His eyes widen as he stifles a laugh.]

It's alright, it's just a fidget spinner, see!

[He holds it up and spins it, catching himself staring at it and snapping himself out of it.]

But if you don't like that, I also have these shiny bike chains, look!

[He places it in his palm, holding his hand out for her to observe it.]

[toby-the-crow]

[She tentatively perches on his desk and taps the chains with her beak, chirping when they make a clinking noise.]

<<like these shiny>>

[She picks one of the chains up and hops around the desk, happily croaking when the clinking noise is repeated.]

[Then she sets the chain down and mimics the noise, looking at Leo.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He watches as she hops on his desk, grinning like a little kid. And when she starts mimicking the noise, his eyes light up.]

Woahhh... that's so cool! I'll let you keep the shiny if you give me back the silverware. Sound like a deal?

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby considers this and nods, still mimicking the noise.]

<<deal deal deal shiny shiny>>

[hamat0leonard0]

Alrighty-o!

[He grabs the fidgets holding his hand out once again for her to perch on. She does, so Leo starts walking back to the garage.]

--

Alright. Can you put the silverware on the cabinet? I'll give you the shiny after you do, I promise. /g

[toby-the-crow]

[Flying up to the air vent, Toby digs through the pile, pushing the silverware out onto the cabinet.]

<<shiny!>>

[hamat0leonard0]

Thank you.~

[He places the fidget toys on the cabinet for Toby to take, grabbing the silverware and holding the utensils in his hand.]

Pleasure doin' business with ya!

[toby-the-crow]

[Toby rattles, too busy inspecting the new treasures to respond to Leo. She picks up the chain and hops around gleefully, listening to the sound it makes.]

<<shiny shiny shiny noise noise shiny>>

[hamat0leonard0]

[He chuckles before walking away, heading to the kitchen. He arrives at his destination and puts all of the silverware in its respective place. He makes his way back to his room and plops down on his bed, scrolling mindlessly on his phone.]

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie sleepily wanders out of his bedroom, beanie askew. He leans against the doorway of his twin's bedroom.]

Hey, have you seen uh ... Crowby? That's what we're calling her for now, correct? I definitely did not fall asleep while doing research on ... this whole situation.

[He did. He's been working non-stop on it and can't figure out exactly what sort of spell to use to turn Toby back. Terrified of making a mistake, he's had no choice but to do deeper research.]

[Leo is pacing around his room with a fidget toy in his hand, feeling understimulated. He does this for about 10 more minutes when he slowly comes to a stop, his eyes landing on his skateboard. A smirk comes across his face. He runs up to it and grabs it, quickly making his way to Donnie's lab (which he's been in for most of the day). He starts knocking, not intending on stopping until he gets an answer.]

Donnieee~ Dontronnn come onnnn! Come outtt, I wanna do something with youuu. Pleeaaaseee~

@othellotron9000

[othellotron9000]

[After a few moments, Leo can hear an exasperated "Fine! Fine! Not like I was in the middle of important work or anything ..." from the other side of the door.]

[Donnie opens the door to greet his twin, but he doesn't look very enthused. He's not actually angry with Leo. He's just had too many technical difficulties with a project and hasn't allowed himself a single break, on top of his nervous system deciding to bully him today. But he doesn't feel like explaining all of this to Leo.]

What're you up to now, hm?

[Donnie sounds a combination of irritated and tired as he leans against the doorway. His gaze moves to focus on the skateboard in his twin's hands, then over to his own skateboard which is propped up against the wall near the doorway.]

..... Okay, I'm listening.

[hamat0leonard0]

[The grin that was on his face only widens.]

Wanna skateboard??! I know you probably haven't taken a break in hours. /lh

[He rocks back and forth on his feet slightly as he stands in front of twin, still grinning.]

[othellotron9000]

Mmm, okay. I suppose I can take a short break.

[He can't help but feel a bit of mischief and excitement, though he tries to hide it. Skateboarding with Leo is always a lot of fun. It's been a while since they've done it. Besides, maybe some movement will help with the pins and needles.]

[He grabs his own skateboard and holds it close to his chest as though it were a plushie.]

Alright, let's go.

[hamat0leonard0]

[His grin turns into a full-on smile, turning around to get in a running position.]

RACE YA THERE!!

[He takes off running to the skate ramps, not looking behind him.]

[othellotron9000]

Hey!

[Donnie chases after Leo, his mood lightening. As he catches up to his twin, he grabs ahold of Leo's mask tails and tugs him back a bit to give himself a chance to get ahead. He giggles as Leo stumbles.]

[hamat0leonard0]

ACK-

[He tries to recover quickly, continuing to chase after Donnie.]

--

[The twins stand on the bottom of one of the skate ramps, unaware of their little brother on top of it.]

So, wanna play cow?...

[He feels almost as if they're being watched. Leo looks around, his eyes landing on the orange-clad turtle, who was barreling towards them on his skateboard.]

@all-time-champ-of-today

[all-time-champ-of-today]

[Mikey's mischievous grin grows once Leo spots him, and he squats down on his board to speed up.]

Look out below!!

[othellotron9000]

WOAH!!

[Donnie shoves Leo with his skateboard, and the twins dive out of the way, tumbling clumsily onto the floor near the ramp.]

[Donnie watches his skateboard slowly roll past the two of them.]

Evening, Mikey.

[hamat0leonard0]

[Leo hits the ground, wincing when he lands on his left arm (because it has been hurting for a reason unknown to him) before sitting up, trying to come off completely unbothered by what just happened.]

Hey, Mikey! Wanna play cow?

[all-time-champ-of-today]

[Mikey shoots up the other side of the ramp and up over the top, where he fumbles a little in midair, his skateboard inching outside of his reach. He retracts into his shell on instinct, and slides down the ramp on his plastron instead of his board.]

[He slows to a halt at the bottom. Then he pops his head back out of his shell with a delighted giggle.]

Hey guys! Sure! Cow sounds fun!

[othellotron9000]

[Mikey manages to get a giggle out of Donnie.]

Okay, cool, cool.

[He stands and helps his twin up.]

[hamat0leonard0]

[He gets pulled up and smiles at Donnie.]

Thanks, Dee. Alright, mis hermanos. As the oldest, I will go first!~

[He starts making his way to the top of the skateramp like an excited little kid (/aff).]

[all-time-champ-of-today]

[Mikey pops out of his shell and pushes clumsily to his feet. He fumbles a little and picks up his skateboard, holding it loosely, gingerly, in his arms, then follows up to the top of the ramp after Leo, tail wagging away and too-long sleeves sliding down over the tips of his fingers.]

Aw yeah! Go Leo! Go Leo!

[othellotron9000]

[He was chanting along with Mikey until Leo gets to the top of the ramp. Then Donnie asks a question, slightly concerned because he knows how reckless Leo can be. Especially because according to the rules of the game, Donnie and Mikey are going to have to copy whatever it is he does.]

So um ... what are you planning to do for your first move, exactly?

[hamat0leonard0]

[He sets his skateboard on the ramp in preparation and then looks down at Donnie, smirking.]

I'm gonna do a 14-40.~

[all-time-champ-of-today]

[Mikey instantly lights up, excited, and claps his hands a couple times. There is, however, something nervous that flashes briefly in his eyes.]

Oooh! That one's like, impossible. You're gonna kill it, Leo!

[othellotron9000]

[Donnie has pulled out his phone and is occupied with checking his social media. He doesn't look up from his screen when he responds to Leo.]

Leo, no. You're gonna fall off the skateboard or crash. And I'm not helping you up.

[othellotron9000]

I started making tagging system posts, and I'll finish this later. Next is character tagging system in a separate post, after that an OOC about me post, and then I will link all of these to my pinned in-character introduction post.
