text, UN: LegendaryBootyyyshaker9000 After 2012 Raph's network post

[notapancake]

Where are you, I fucked up again.

[grabaslice]

Outside the apartment complex. Literally just went outside.

what happened??

[notapancake]

I may have gone a little overboard with Donatello?

after rue's disappearance

[apuckalypse]

[Hey, sensei, your relic is ringing. If you don't pick up the first try Casey will keep calling. Over and over. Until you pick up. Hope you weren't in the shower or busy or something. Ring ring!]

[grabaslice]

[It takes about three, nearly four rings before Leonardo picks up. He was getting his arm off, trying to relax a little without it. Thus a fumble to pick up his phone.

His voice is cheerful as he answers.]

Hey, kiddo. What's going on?

[apuckalypse]

[There's a silence, initially, then the sound of a sharp breath, and a watery sniffle.]

You're still... [thank god. oh, thank god.] ...Dad...

After the saving tello plan reveal - Action

[notapancake]

[Someone is a bit angry when he returns to the apartment after a trip to the lair, and he is making no sign of hiding it.

Hopefully Leo is home, because Donnie has an issue that he needs his brother to vent at.]

Oh mi gosh, Leo you need to talk to Junior.

[grabaslice]

[This bitch is sitting at home, minding his business reading a book on the couch when Donnie makes his grand return. He blinks a little at the announcement, lowering his book.]

I need to talk to him-? Did you two get into a fight?

[notapancake]

No, it's just... He's doing something that is not going to end well and he won't listen to me.

[He brings a hand up to scrub at his face, how to even explain this?]

text; un: tinyred | after the wintermute wolf incident

[saisdoesmatter]

hey leo

can we talk?

no rush i uh

know you're kinda grounded rn

just

whenever you're up for it

[grabaslice]

[He was wondering when Raph would message him. Looks like today is the day.]

You make it sound like Casey grounded me for my crimes.

I'm open to talk whenever you are. I'm resting at home at the moment.

[saisdoesmatter]

well

he said you needed to rest and stuff since

you know

idk if you want visitors or anything

don't know where you live exactly either but i can bring you something if you need it

un: LegendaryBootyyyshaker9000, after everything/while bringing Bucky home

[notapancake]

[Considering how... everything has gone down? Donnie is semi-reluctant to send this text, but it's probably for the best that he tells Leo about this so there's no surprises.]

I'm bringing someone to the apartment, you've met him at least once, but he was sleeping outside so... yeah.

[GOD, that is horrible an awkward and he just sends it because yeah.]

[grabaslice]

[His brother?? making friend??]

Are you staying with him? Who is he?

[notapancake]

Uh, yeah I'm staying? It'd be weird to just dump him in the apartment alone.

[He might be bad with people, but he's not that bad.]

He likes to be called Bucky, he's kinda scruffy looking and has a cybernetic arm.

[apuckalypse]

[ after the failed tour- ]

uncle tello apologized

[grabaslice]

[The lower case text message with no greeting is not giving Leo a very good time right now.]

Are we talking an actual apology, or he felt like he had to?

[apuckalypse]

[typing...
typing...
typing...

....]

yes

Voice; un: LegendaryBootyyyshaker9000

[notapancake]

[Aaaaaaah, he meant to do this sooner but a whole bunch of shit happened and aaaaaah.]

Whenever you're ready you can come back.

[grabaslice]

[He laughs a little at that being how Donnie starts the call.]

Alright, I'll pull myself together then. I was wondering when I'd get the all clear on that.

[notapancake]

Stuff kept happening, so sorry about how long it took.

[Like the whole thing with Casey, oh boy.]

@ steepwithdead

[grabaslice]

[Stepping through the portal back into Caduceus home is a relief Leonardo can't quite articulate. Some of the tension he was carrying seems to drop away as he soaks in the more natural quiet of the Xhorhaus. He stands in the kitchen, just listening to the world pass them by.

He waits for Cad to come back, giving the man a thin smile in kind. Leonardo is still holding himself together, a tight wound ball of control. The calmer version of Commander Leonardo. He is standing taller, stiffly at attention. He does what he always does when tragedy strikes, he persists. There is little else he can do but let himself keep moving forward. Muscle memory masking the ache under the surface. It is a ingrained trauma response at this point.]

I think at this rate, you're going to need a good rest after flexing your magic muscles like that today. [He frowns briefly at his blood covered hand.] Maybe after I wash up a little, I can get you some water or something. Or tea, if you're feeling it.

[steepwithdead]

[Truthfully, Caduceus is tired. He'd stayed at the lair for a long time, in part to check every nook and cranny, in part to ensure everyone was on the mend, and then to do a big clean up, because someone had to, and he sure wasn't going to expect a bunch of traumatized kids to do it. It wasn't just blood on the floor, but remnants of that infectious ichor. He had to make sure that at least was permanently gone.

He's more physically weary than magically, though his highest level spells have been entirely drained. He leans briefly on his staff as he heads into the kitchen, but at the sight of Leonardo and the spoken offer, he sets it aside, resting it against the wall. Enough. This has gone on long enough. They're both a mess of blood and nerves.]

Leonardo. You can take it off, now. That mask.

[Not the literal one on his face. The commander's mask, the mask of restraint, control, the part of him sealing the grief away. He's held it enough.]

text; @cjj, after visiting the lair

[apuckalypse]

hes my boyfriend???

[hi, guess who met Hunter.]

[grabaslice]

[There it is-]

Yep, you do! I figured you and Hunter could talk things out.
