Master Splinter has returned to New York.
[Pause to make sure his voice stays steady.]

He's back home, safe.

[Don sighs softly. He won't talk about how nice it was to see Splinter alive. A relief. And it was good that he was safe, back home.
They had to believe that.]

[Small pause.]
I need to ask you and Mikey...if you want to continue training under Minato.
[Or let Leo keep things the way there were and just lead training sessions.]

... Not yet. [A beat.] I need time, Leo. I can't make that decision now.

[Can you feel him trying to back off a little on that?]

Will you be okay?

I'll...be alright.

[We'll be all right together, big brother. All four of us.]

Thanks, Don.

... We're here for you, Leo. We'll be here for each other.

I know.
Really...I know.
[He doesn't sound relieved, nope. That's just your imagination Don. Playing tricks on you.]
Reply
[Don sounds a bit relieved, too.]
Reply
Promise.
[That relief hurts a little, but...it's just guilt. He's sorry, Donny, really.]
Reply
[Stop that. Don understands, and it's nothing to be sorry for. You were always closest to their father. Always. So he knows you're going to take it the hardest.]

[He's not going to show that he is. But he won't try to hide it as much.]
