[When he was fairly sure the sky was clear of falling trees, Isamu had made his way outside toward the edge of town. It was late, but of the things the teen feared, creatures that went bump in the night weren't part of them. He didn't tell anyone he was leaving. He just went ( Read more... )

[Wallowing? Oh yeah, you're speaking Raph's language now. He's been nothing more than a ghost for the past two weeks, ditching Isamu's training not once but twice this week, and he's really starting to feel crappy about it. But he needed time to get his act together, time alone to clear his head. Though when he spots Isamu dozing against that lamppost on his way to the bar, guilt gnaws at his conscious too painfully to be ignored.

Raph comes out of hiding and steps into the light, mumbling a quiet greeting.]

Hey.

[Oho? What's this familiar voice? Forget being sleepy, Isamu's glaring in the general direction of the turtle the moment he hears it.]

Hey there, Jerkface. Where've you been?

[He shrugs.]

Around.

Sorry for flakin' on you. I heard you were lookin' for me.

I would've hoped you'd heard. I was loud enough about it. [Still glaring, man. You committed a faux pas as far as he's concerned.]

If you're tired of me, just say it.

I ain't tired of you. [He sounds irritated, like you're a moron for even thinking it.] If I was I woulda told ya to your face.

So what, you couldn't just say "Hey, don't think I'll be showing up today?" Woulda saved me some trouble.

Builds character. [Sort of joking, mostly evading a straight answer.] I said sorry. What more do ya want?

Oh, character building. We all know I don't have enough of that.

[He gives a bit of a dismissive wave.] Whatever, man. I'm sure you had your reasons.

Yeah...[He studies Isamu's face for a moment, weighing his options.] Do you drink?

[Pardon him while he takes that the wrong way.]

Not really, no. I'm perfectly sober right now, thanks. Geez... A guy can't take a breather while out at night...

Huh? [Blinking now. That's a bit of a surprise.] ...Do they even let turtles into -- well, I guess they'd let in anyone, huh?

Trust me, they don't give a shit.

So you in or what?

[He seems to actually be considering it, but then shakes his head after a moment.] ...Maybe some other time.

Naoki'll probably already be annoyed with me for daring to go off and do my own thing without telling him. [Not that Naoki was his mom or anything. Really. Plus it would probably take very little to knock him out at the moment, meaning he wouldn't make for the best conversation.]

Oh boo-hoo. You think my brothers know where I am right now?

C'mon, live a little.

[Isamu frowns.] I'm telling you, I'm not going to be the best company right now...

[Sigh.] But fine. I can come along. [He starts getting himself to his feet with the help of the lamppost.]
