[As always, Splinter wakes up early. The smells and sights are still strange, but Splinter has reoriented himself. Through the course of the morning, he sees each of his sons in turn to train and access their progress ( Read more... )

[Mike has thrown all the covers off and is sprawled in an extremely uncomfortable-looking position on his futon. He's mumbling in his sleep. Your sharp ears should be able to pick up these phrases:]

"...pie..."

"...what's a feather, Lucy?..."

"...no... Don... Donnie... stop..."

[Splinter lets out the softest of chuckles as he watches his son sleep and hears his mumbles. He reaches over to shake Michelangelo gently.]

No!

[He sits bolt upright, doing a striking block at your hand before he's even fully conscious.]

[-then his eyes focus and he realizes it's you. He relaxes, marginally.

A bit breathlessly:]

Ohayou, Master. Sorry about that.

[Splinter catches Michelangelo's hand easily, only to let go of it when his son awakes.]

It is all right, my son.

[Of course, the later part of the mumblings finally register. He looks at Michelangelo with concern.]

Have you been experiencing nightmares?

[Caught.]

Uh, yeah... A little. [A lot.] It's okay, though.

About Donatello?

[His voice drops lower as he speaks, and his ears flick down just slightly. Splinter has bad memories of nearly losing his gentlest son.]

[He thought that's when you were from.]

...yeah. And... other things.

[Things he doesn't want to talk about.]

He will be all right now, Michelangelo. Your brother is safe, alive, and himself.

[He'll address the "other things" in a moment. Right now, he's going to place his hand on your shoulder.]

[Have a somewhat relieved smile.]

Yeah, I know. He's not even from then. He's from two years before.

[He blinks. ... and he's not sure what to say to that, so he ignores it for now.]

Good. Then you know the nightmares will fade with time. Perhaps you should limit your bedtime snacks as well.

[Sheepish:] Yeah...

So, what's up?

[He glances over at Raph's bed, notices he's gone, and turns back to Splinter with a questioning look.]

[He tilts his head slightly.]

It is time to resume a proper training regimen.

Oh! Okay.

[He'd been wondering about that. He puts his gear on, careful to keep a smile on his face as he does so, and then stands, ready to follow Splinter wherever he goes.]

[Splinter waits for Michelangelo to finish getting ready, and then leaves the room, taking him to the workout room. He glances at Michelangelo.]

I take it that you have kept up with your training....?

[Oh, and he seems to be walking towards a bathroom scale.]

[Action] the_mikester March 24 2011, 22:22:18 UTC
Uh, yeah... [No. But he's only been here for a few weeks, and he hasn't been doing nothing.

He looks at the scale curiously, and then at Splinter again. What's this?]
