"Because, Mikey, even if I thought it would work - which I don't - and if I wanted to ruin April's life by putting that kind of pressure on her - which I won't - and maybe even I absolutely certain she felt the same way - which I'm not! - "
The stand holding Spike's old tank went flying across the room like a furious wind and smashed into the wall, raining pieces of glass and wood to the floor.
"I could NOT - DO THAT - TO DONNIE!"

Speaking of 2012 verse, I'm all in Apritello team for good. However, there are numbers of non-Apritello shippers--and fics too, and I have to admit I'm not liking the idea of 2012 Raphril coupling. They're great as friends, but not to be more than that. IMHO they just won't do.
If--emphasized on if--Raphril's going to happen, in this fic's kind of way, I will gladly approve. It has a really good plot, emotional ups and downs, while showing that the 2012 Raph was still the same 2012 Raph. Only different is, now he develops different feeling towards April, and I believe it. None of all 10 chapters were wasted. Very, very well written, and inspired me a lot to draw this one and I took my time to think about what-to-put-in and what-to-not-put-in the drawing, like the clothes and certain dash of colors.
p.s. Check out ch. 1, 4, 9, and 10. I read those chapters more than dozen times. Quoted part on top was my most fav part.
