YOU'RE JOKING,

[ OOE ]

// little man with a tmnt shirt i chatted with him abt it and asked who his fav was he smiled shyly and went "the red one" i yelled out "MY MAAAAAN" and he giggled. thats my bestie now

// IM THE EXACT OPPOSITE I LIVE IN CT WE HAVE AN OVER ABUNDANCE OF DUNKIN 😭 I'LL TALK TO THE CEO I'LL HAVE THEM BUILD MORE OVER THERE

// IF I COULD SEND YOU SOME I WOULD DUNKIN IS MY NUMBER ONE

// SIGHS. I DO .. the before work trip to dunkin will save me

// sighs. looks up at the sky. i dont wanna get ready for work.

[ Cringing at that. Of course, the one time his brothers aren't home. ( 💧 ) Taking a shuddering breath, Mikey runs a hand through his hair, forcing a smile. ]

Well – ! Guess that just means I'll have to wait a bit! Uh . . hang out, y'know? [ How do you pretend to be a teen again? Or relax? ]

You're crazy.

[ Committing now. He hasn't had the chance to be a little shit in AGES. Turning the gaslight train around. ]

I've never played along with anything in my life ? ?

// future!mona coming to the lair to see her fiance and little sister alive after finding her past father figure and trying not to crash out /j

// i got you i'll swing on his left you take the right

// POOR GUY HE DONT EVEN KNOOOOW 😭😭

// past!mona in the future: i gotta get back before raph realizes i'm gone!

past!raph, on top of a building: mona . . ? MOOONAAAAA, ( /ref )

// "raphs on a date with mona" poor thing is out there searching for his girlfriend she got switched around with future mona /silly

Forgot my brothers had lives. ( 💧 )

[ Hand over his shaky frown, it takes him a minute to speak up, voice wavering. ]

Hey, Mond, I uh . . tried something new. [ Clearing his throat. He can't exactly tell her they're MARRIED in the future. ] It's – are my brothers home?

( 🤨 )

Are we gaslighting now. I didn't prepare for that.

Mick - Mick, lemme have this. D'you KNOW how long I spent as the 'baby'.

[ Turning his head, as soon as he spots Mondo, Mikey freezes. Eyes going wide, all he can do is just . . / stare /.

She looks so much . . younger. Entirely unburdened by war and hell. The lump in his throat appears immediately. ]

MAD WITH POWER

I'M THE ELDEST NOW

[ Surely everyone will know to meet up at the Lair. It's the most obvious choice.

So, he'll slink his way in. The problem will be telling his . . older brothers? Younger brothers? That's so confusing. ( 💧 ) ]

is this the place we used to love? is this the place that i've been dreaming of?

[ . . he hasn't seen the Lair in / ages /. It's so . . bright. Homey.

He's been homesick this entire time and had not even a clue. ]

// also. yknow. the turtles were literally made for war originally. i know they constantly give the krang hell

// i think future mikey deserves to be a little scary. 'badass mystical warrior' abt the guy who was able to throw entire buildings and ships WITHOUT mystic training has gotta mean SOMETHING

// PLEASE PLEAZE A WHOLE LITTLE CHARACTER THING.

maybe i'll do a pov switch to present mikey in the future at some point .. mona too ..

not in the usual way in the "they know i helped and accidentally beefed the spell" way

got a feeling i should be maybe watching my back rn idk
