...Alright...'Nigma... *decides to leave well enough alone for the time being and looks at the watch*
7:57 *starts to stand up as she speaks, backing towards the trail* Uh, anyone who's supposed to be in by 8 o'clock better start running. Now. *tosses the watch back to Enigma and disappears into the darkness* |

*Don abandonded the fire to walk with Kya back to the house* You really should speak up Kya. I don't want to have to treat you twice in three days for hypothermia...
*Leonardo opened his mouth to speak, and closed it again to think. Finally* I did not bring her home because when I was with her, I didn't have to worry about family. I could sit with her and just...talk. I didn't have to be perfectly controlled, or disciplined. I could just be happy, or mad, or whatever. I didn't have to examine the emotion first, and see if it was safe to display it. I was worried that if I brought her home, Raph would do something like he did, and she'd leave...or that you wouldn't approve, and then I'd have to make a choice....

*Vespera chuckled a little. Raphs goodbye to Mike sounded suspiciously like "Get the hell out of here before I do something to make you REALLY regret staying" Vespera stood up as well.* Sure, no problem

*sprints past Donny and Kya at top speed, shouts as she approaches, overtakes them, and disappears again*
Don't mind me, I'm just trying NOT to get in any more trouble! |

SP: *shakes his head* You are making it seem as if I am looking for things to disapprove of. Leonardo...Vespera is a nice young lady from what I know of her so far from having met her. I do not stereotype. A stereotypical ninja is an honorless assassain and I do not wish to be seen in that light. Likewise, I will not do so with Vespera. Do I have concerns about your relationship...yes..but I have had concerns with each of your brothers as well. That is just the way it is with parents and I am afraid you will have to live with it. I understand your desire to keep the relationship secret, but because I understand does not mean I approve and I am still quite angry about that. You may never have told a direct lie, but now I am concerned about what else you may be or may have hidden from me. I do not like not being able to trust my students.
MIke: *looks suspicious, but shrugs and heads for the door* |

*Leonardo maintained eye contact* I am sorry Sensei, but I do not believe that trust means I have to share every detail of my life. Trust means that you have enough confidence in me that I don't have to share every detail of my life.
*Don watched Kameko sprint past him. He didn't want to be late, but he wasn't leaving Kya out on the trail.* So Kya, can your bag whip up another thermos of hot chocolate? Sounds like you need some.

Raph focuses on the space above her head.
R: Look, I wanted to tell ya--- he blinks and squints at the cyber against the tree.--- (to the cyber) DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND FVCKIN' PRIVACY? i ASKED YOU TO GO MOPE ELSEWHERE. GO FIND THAT SNAKE 'A YERS AND TORMENT MY BROTHER OK?!-- (curses under his breath) and grabs her hand and pulls her to a section of the campsite away from the cyber) Swallows. R: Sorry for being an ass. I did it on purpose. Needed to piss somebody off. Not Leo. (smirk) Leo was a bonus. And no, not you neither. It wasn't a misunderstandin' and I ain't asking you to forgive me or nuthin. but for the record... some one needed to remember that i ain't perfect -- and she wasn't gonna listen any other way. That's it. He turned and began to break apart the glowing logs with Kameko's green s'more stick. he plainly wanted to forget that she was there. |

*slows down, finally jogs backwards a few yards*
I assume the 8oclock thing applies to me, too, so I REALLY don't want to get in trouble... Splinter trusted me enough to let me out for a while, I don't wanna blow it again, But, I would think that if I'm walking with you I can get away with it... Or do you two want to be alone? |

*Vespera blinked. That had to have been the LAST reason she was expecting.* Hey. No forgiveness given, there was nothing to forgive. I didn't take offense at it. I'm heading back to the house. I'll see you later. *She turned and suited actions to words*
*Don nodded absently* sure you can walk with us.

SP: *raised an eyebrow at that* A detail in your life Leonardo is what store you are going to shop at or what movie you are going to see. That you have begun to seriously date a human girl is more than just a detail. It has always been understood that something like this is a family matter because it may affect all of us. It is your life..yes..but your life is also this clan and the protection of its members.

kya stared at the bag. and reached in. she got a thermos.
Kya: cocoa. kameko: you've had COCOA and you've been HOLDIN" out on us?!... No that's ok, I don't want any, i'm super-full, but what else've you got in there?... (laughing) hey sister, can you spare a dime? kya reached into the bag again. she pulled out a handful of dimes. kameko: ..... Raph broke down the logs the glowing embers casting a low steady read light. Despite the cyber on the tree trunk, and his family not yet 50 yards down the trail, he felt terribly alone. |

*Leonardo listened in kind of a sick fascination as Splinter spelled out what he had feared. He had put the clan in possible danger. He had done it willfully, wanting to keep something like this private. And it was wrong.* Hai Sensei. Looks like I messed it up again. If you'll excuse me, I must go and do the honorable thing.
*Don looks up at Kameko* You ask her to pull a rabbit out of it and there'll be trouble. *He ushered them into the house*

the last thing Raph wanted was to talk to ANYBODY, so he pushed the cyber's words and presence as far and as hard as he could.
R: no, you sure as hell don't. ((((enigma, separate from the moody turtle thing... you ok?... i mean RL stuff bites pretty hard... you wanna im or something. Promise i'll leave raph chained here.)))) |
