[ See. It has to be fine now. He said that it's fine. ]
Not gonna lose it, Raph. He's right there. You can tell he's still there. And if you freak out and drop him he won't be there, so don't freak out. Donnie needs the opposite of freaking out. It's fine. You're not even really alone, it's fine, everything's fine.
[ The way he is not even going to remember this stretch of time later. There it goes. Into the fight or flight insta-delete filter. Part of the creeping darkness.
It's probably not even creeping. His eye's been weird all night, it's probably just-- more illusion stuff. Brain tricks. Brain tricks in the pocket dimension away from home where he can't see or hear his little brother anymore and it feels like something is watching them and he doesn't know how bad the bad guy is and they can't reach their family.
Keep it down, Raph. Hold the fort. Big brother first, everything else second. No one is allowed to be thinking of crying right now. That's all energy that gets tunnel vision focused on trying to perceive any tiny shifting of weight on the other end of this tether.
Donnie you're cool with the vague perception of you being the only thing anchoring your anchor's mental and physical wellbeing right. ]
When we get home we're not goin' out again for two months!
