Leo, what...? [he's still a little shocked so leo manages to get that arm around him. his skin isn't crawling; in fact, he feels almost refreshingly numb compared to how hypersensitive he's been the past day.
then donnie remembers slipped disc, paralyzed and he carefully lowers leo back into the bed/hammock. he keeps his hand on his brother's shoulder, but his breath is still coming in too thick, and his eyes are burning. he's crying- why is he crying? he has information, data. he has a plan.]
You're gonna be fine, [donnie croaks, dragging a wrist over his eyes. it doesn't help much, and leo still has that horrible look on his face like he's about to bite off his own tongue if someone asks him to, so donnie shudders and bend over him. holds his weight up with one hand on the cot, carefully, gently wraps his other around leo's neck in a hug only as tight as he dares. the tears keep trickling out, one or two, but there's nothing he can do about it now.
he's gotta make sure leo knows. the krang didn't do anything that can't be fixed. not to this timeline, not to this city, and not to his family.] You'll be good as new. I promise. I've got this.
