Seventeenth Theory [Action/Incidental Voice]

[i_speak_softly]

((Continuity notes: While taking care of Polka after she collapsed, Don and Raph learned that Leo had been mallynapped. They promptly barricaded themselves in Polka's room, but quickly realizing that this was not a long-term solution, they determined to Get Serious about their plans to disrupt the barrier and escape.))

[This morning, the Turtle Twosome can be found stalking around Luceti, sticking close to one another and glaring at everyone else as though just daring them to turn into giant brother-stealing robots.

Their first stop is the library, where they will spend a couple hours poring over books about electricity, magnetism, plasma, and other esoterica. (Well, mostly Don is poring while Raph runs books back and forth from the shelves.)

Later they descend upon the smithy, rummaging through the items there and carrying off a number of metallic parts.

After that they go directly to the item shop, where they bin-dive for more random-seeming objects.

Then, they retreat to C6, lock the door, and start assembling their booty into a device that is essentially the World's Most Awesome Lightning Rod.

In the evening, when it is slightly less excessively hot, they will emerge again, to spend some time cooling off at the lake. This will largely consist of long periods of sitting underwater, punctuated by brief forays to the surface for air.]

((Feel free to run into them at any point, or to eavesdrop through the journals as they're working. Tags will likely be answered by both.))

[Raph hates studying. Hates it. He has no idea why building something would need this many books.

He sits across the library table from Don and his mountain of reading materials, hunched forward in his chair and impatiently drumming his fingers on the table.

An entire week of restless pent-up energy has just about reached its breaking point.]

How much longer are we gonna sit here?

[Runs into them in the item shop where Smoker is stocking up on rope, grappling hooks and lighters.]

Yo. [Half-wave, half-lazy as all hell salute that would get him in trouble with the brass in a second if they saw.]

[After leaving the item shop, Raph heads back home with his brother, still keeping oddly quiet. He's got a lot on his mind, but he's determined to keep a level head in Leo's place. Even if Don thinks there's something wrong with him, there isn't. This is just him holding up the fort.]
