[Sorry, bro, but he does not have the mental real estate to hear your two hour long ted talk four days a week. He's putting together planning.

As he sips his tea.]

Uh huh. Other methods that I'm sure our father and brothers would all agree to if they were here but they're not so we make do and do whatever we have to even if that means I won't say anything as long as we get what we need.

[See he can talk long sentences too. Another sip.]

Do you want me to look at a bo for you or do you wanna try to rebuild tech-bo here?

[semilethal]

Nyyyeeeauuugggh. if you would look into it. [hATES IT. he wants to have flame throwers and buzz saws and various weaponry god damn it!! an entire battalion's worth of projectiles!!! god he's so mad] I'm not going to have the resources for anything decent for a while.

[neonleon]

[ooooh Donnie hates it, he can tell. No flamethrowers or buzz saws or even the big hammers to put on.

Another sip of tea.]

Good because I already asked about that too. I'll see what they have.

Uh. I guess... [Good big brother? Hizen had joked that he was a 'good' brother, but Leo is trying to take that seriously.] Metal if they have one?

[Not likely, but never hurts to think about. And if Donnie can use the metal for something else, why not?]

[semilethal]

Natch. [wooden? with no mystic powers? what is this, the stone ages? or the...the wood ages, he'll workshop that joke first] Whole paycheck, huh...? [looks over at the espresso machines and sighs.]

[neonleon]

[Sip sip.]

I can earn some money in the arena, too. [He's helping, shut up.]

[semilethal]

That would be a good cover. [because he is going to Steal as soon as he gets the appropriate hardware and writes up the program]

[neonleon]

Yeah. So...

[So. This is... fine. A plan, he's good with a plan. Both of them working on getting money, and he'll get them some kind of weapon in the meantime until they can figure out how to get their weapons back.

Still at a loss for their powers though. That's going to handicap them a bit.]

Donnie... [He hesitates for a second, fiddling with the handle of his mug.] You trust these people? As far as working with them?

[semilethal]

[glances up from where he's been starting to tinker with the nearest espresso machine, his own mug of tea cooling and forgotten somewhere.] Of course not. We don't know these jokers. They could be holding Raph and Mikey somewhere, for all we know.

[neonleon]

Same page, then.

[Good. And god he hopes they aren't. Sure, Mikey can keep Raph from going.... Raph-weird, but it's no substitute for knowing they're all safe.]

I don't care about this whole faction setup thing they've got going either.

[semilethal]

Yeah, it's dumb. [LIKE, DONNIE DID NOT ASK TO BE IN UR GANG? or kidnapped, for that matter. his loyalty is to his family first and his science also first and then everything else on this blight of a planet is a lightyears-distant second.] I think you're technically not supposed to be here or me over there or whatever, but who cares.

[neonleon]

If they didn't want that, they shouldn't've put us in separate groups.

[Simple as that. He'll keep the other housing in Shuten, but he's taking Donnie up on staying here. Besides, with as many people as have been confusing them for kappa, they could easily just trade masks and no one could tell the difference probably.]

[semilethal]

[yeah they're like, identical. to humans anyway.] Precisely. Go get your things, then. [y'know, if he has any, but donnie assumes leo has accumulated at least some knick-knacks since coming here.]

[neonleon]

[Surprising everyone, he has not. It's been like... A day?]

Got everything right here. I was gonna grab stuff to take to the sewer, but didn't make it that far.

[semilethal]

It's just as crowded down there as it is up here. [oh so donnie DID look. hypocrite.]

[neonleon]

Yeah, but I found a spot-

[Wait.]

YOU LOOKED TOO!!

1/2

[semilethal]

[oh f-]

[semilethal]

ONLY BRIEFLY AND FOR AN UNRELATED REASON AND I NEVER SAID I DIDN'T AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS LEO!

[neonleon]

You were acting all high and mighty like the sewer here wasn't worth the time, but you liar! I knew you'd want something that felt familiar, you're not good at sudden change!

[semilethal]

Yeah fine, I looked! So what! I'm still right and it's still not worth our time! [whatre you gonna do you wanna fight about it]

[neonleon]

[ALREADY FIGHTING ABOUT IT]

DON'T ACT LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT WHEN YOU DID THE SAME THING!

[semilethal]

WHAT ARE YOU EVEN MAD ABOUT WHEN YOU WERE WRONG ANYWAY! GET OVER IT! GO BUY A PILLOW BECAUSE I'M NOT SHARING MINE!

[neonleon]

I wouldn't wanna share your pillow anyway!

[Deep breath. Calm.]

It'll just be shaped like your egg head anyway.

[semilethal]

At least it doesn't have an isosceles indent in the middle! Go away. [SITS DOWN SO MAD!!!! HE HAS WORK TO DO!!!!!!


....] And bring back dinner! [do please come back tho]

[neonleon]

Wha- You're kicking me out?

[Temporarily anyway. The order to bring back dinner is signal enough for that. But fine!!! He'll leave! Leaves his empty tea mug on the floor net to him and leaves!]
