mnt_mikeShe's going to kill him.
He's going to die, and it's going to be at her hand. Mike is sure of this.
As sure of this as he is of the fact that every muscle in his body is screaming.
Loudly.
"...i'm dying," he says to no one in particular as he lay across the living room floor of his flat.

He kneels down to take Mike's pulse, then drops his arm back on the floor. "You're fine."

Date: 2012-07-24 04:21 am (UTC)He shoves at Mike's side with one green, two-toed foot.
"I had to hear it from Leo! In an e-mail!"

Date: 2012-07-24 04:24 am (UTC)"ow. Wait...heard about what? Why are you making with the kicking?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-24 04:26 am (UTC)The puppy eyes will not work, Mike! You're in the doghouse!

"Oh. That. Yeah...that was a big day. Um...sorry?"

Date: 2012-07-24 04:47 am (UTC)Look, Mike is just the easiest scapegoat, he was lying on the floor and everything.
"Or chucked a paper airplane through the door!"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-24 04:52 am (UTC)"Wait...you've got two other brothers, why is this my fault?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-24 04:58 am (UTC)Do you need more explanation than that?
"And Leo at least tried, though I think he was a little worked up at the time."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-24 03:16 pm (UTC)"Don't you use your logic on me, young man!"
Is the best he can come up with.

Date: 2012-07-25 04:08 am (UTC)Mike puts up a halfhearted fight, but his muscles are so stiff from training with X that he's no where near as fast as he needs to be.
"whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Why you do this thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing?"

Date: 2012-07-25 04:18 am (UTC)"Well, it's no wonder he was feeling a little lonely. And I guess I can see the thing with Sallie, in hindsight. But why does he think I'd be upset?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:22 am (UTC)"Because," he says between gasps for breath. "Because...you haven't changed shape. I think he thought he was setting a bad example, or something. That you'd be disappointed in him."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:27 am (UTC)"I mean. I definitely have complicated feelings about it. About all of you and Milliways and changing to human. But, those are your decisions. And it isn't like you're all telling me I should change."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:30 am (UTC)This isn't Mike being a wiseass, he genuinely concerned here.
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:35 am (UTC)He pauses.
"I don't need to talk about my feelings right now, Mikey."
Don't distract him!
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:37 am (UTC)These are not Don-like tactics. Usually.
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:40 am (UTC)Don does not look shifty at all!
"I promise I will come and eat waffles with you if I do, okay? I should talk to sensei first, is all."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:43 am (UTC)Mike turns to look at his brother, notices the shifty, and his eyes narrow.
"I'm holding you to that, you know. You will come and have waffles. And you will tell me of your feels. All your feels."
They are now belong to Mike.
"Until then though, if you're looking for Splinter, he's probably out by the Lake. There's a meditation spot he likes to use on the opposite shore."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 04:56 am (UTC)"Otherwise, you have a deal."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 05:01 am (UTC)"Depending on when you get here you might even catch Leo. He gets up really early. Like...really early. Earlier than X has been getting me up, and that's really really early."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 05:12 am (UTC)"Are you training again?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-25 05:14 am (UTC)You remember her, right Don? The Wolverine clone that can't be killed, never gets tired, and doesn't fall for any of Mike's tricks?
"She's going to kill me with crunches, I'm sure of it."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:07 am (UTC)"Sorry, Mikey. You kind of deserve it. And X is a very nice girl. I'm sure she won't really kill you."

Date: 2012-07-26 04:16 am (UTC)"I liked this conversation better when I knew everything."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:17 am (UTC)Don pats him on the head.
"You can know everything again later. No one ever tells me anything, anyway."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:19 am (UTC)"That's because you're never here. You should be here more often. You wouldn't miss so much."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:26 am (UTC)He folds into a comfortable sitting position. "You should come back home sometime. You can now, right? With Sallie here and everything?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:29 am (UTC)"Grounded. Can you believe that?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:33 am (UTC)It's the only person/thing/entity that Don can think of who could actually enforce a grounding on a no longer teenage ninja.

Date: 2012-07-26 04:39 am (UTC)"Maybe you'll get time off for good behavior. When I talk to him, I'll tell him I want you to come home with me sometime soon."
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:41 am (UTC)"You'd do that? Really?"
beat.
"This isn't because you need me as a guinea pig, is it?"
no subject

Date: 2012-07-26 04:50 am (UTC)Have I gotten too close, Don?"
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:55 am (UTC)Don pats him on the head again and stands up.
no subject
Date: 2012-07-26 04:58 am (UTC)But he won't, because the moment Don said Mulder Mike's entire train of thought derailed towards the destination Dana Sculley.

Date: 2012-07-26 05:00 am (UTC)"See ya, Mikey! Say hi to X for me."
