You wanna know what I did on your death anniversary, Donnie? [He doesn't give the other turtle room to speak.] I stayed busy. I volunteered for everything, made sure I was busy as soon as I woke up and crashed out afterward.
I tried to not think unless I had to. What was I supposed to do? Sit and listen to people who didn't even know you try to talk over me about you? Like they did every damn year for Raph? Only Mikey, Casey and April had the right to talk about you in my mind, but god, if didn't everyone else absolutely need to say something, act like they were your best friend.
So, if we went by my metric, I'd work myself to the bone. Do we want to do that?
[Oh, oh boy... He kind of knows where Leo is coming from, except people weren't so stupid as to attempt that kind of thing with him more than once. Because even when he was trying to be more palatable to folks, he was still blunt as hell.
So he's quiet after Leo says all of that, not sure how to even respond.]

On that day, what do you want to do between you and I? You and Casey have plans, but I'm open to just acting like its another day.

This for you, Leo. What I want doesn't matter here.
