But he catches Donnie's eyes and the way his tone quiets, feels their father's tail tightening protectively around him. Pops is listening... Leonardo lowers his own voice, just barely above a whisper.] I kept him distracted long enough for Casey to pull the key. Portal chopped him - I'm keeping that by the way, works perfectly in use - and when it was just us, gave him some of my best one liners. Honestly you guys missed out.
[But every sore muscle, every time he gets a high pitched tone in his ear, the way he keeps having to lay his head back a bit.
