Thirtieth Theory [Action]

My sons... MY SONS!

[Donatello stands outside House 55, his shell resting against the wall, staring into the fog.]

Someone help me!

[It's not real.]

NOOOOOOOO!

[That's what everyone has been saying on the journals. So Don doesn't fall into the trap, doesn't go into the mist. (Through the red lens over his eye, it looks like a spray of arterial blood. When he loses focus, he starts to see the red cloud with both eyes. Then he blinks and it's gone again.) But he doesn't go inside either. He can't walk away from his father's voice. Not even when the words give way to pained cries, not even when cold fear grips him as he realizes he doesn't know who needs help.]

[No one. It's not real.]

[Still, he can't bring himself to move.]

((Not marked as Voice because he isn't saying anything, but if you call him over the journals he'll answer. Stay inside tonight, Luceti...))

[Any awkwardness or resentment left over from the Raphael incident melts away at his tone.] Yeah. For you? I've got time.

[She says nothing, just nods encouragingly. April knows enough about Donatello to understand that the thoughts will come at their own pace.]

Well, yeah. Yeah, I'd like to learn it someday. [Holding back on the "What does THAT have to do with anything?" comment. It does. He'll make her see.]

Heh. So this is as far as you're going to explore?

[She shifts to face him, tossing the book onto the bedside table, and answers with a ready quip.]

At some point it would be fun to find out what Master Splinter's muttering at me when I screw up my katas.

Thirteen months! [Defensive! But SO happy to hear that laugh. She twists her fingers together, a nervous habit.]

[And April leans back against the wall, hugging her knees to her chest. Happy that he's comfortable around her, especially after he'd seemed so horrified at waking up beside her the other morning.]

Yeah, I know. I really like him, too. He's...kind of like my sanity, sometimes.

To see it for myself. I'm not the type to stay indoors when there's trouble going on and if there's someone out here who needs help. [Shrugs.]
justicereigns: (serious)

No, but I went over to check on Kohaku for a bit.
justicereigns: (Pooh outside)

[personal profile] justicereigns 2010-10-31 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Kind of, yeah. I'd like to think so anyway.
justicereigns: (?)

Kohaku?? The angel??? I don't know about that.

[A small chuckle.] You just do.
justicereigns: (Pooh honey)

[Shrugs.] I don't know, in general you don't have to overthink it? She's pretty easy going and she doesn't know a lot about humans, but it works out.
