5th Kata [Action for house 55, backdated to the 29th,]
[Even with nothing going on, it's been a rough few days for the residents of house 55. It's like some cruel twist in a game. They were finally getting their acts together, and work as a team once again, back to being brothers. Then they woke up to Raphael gone. Mikey was the first to notice, waking up to a bare room. His freaking out had woken up

It hits him harder than he expected, though most of it is for Don's sake. One of his brothers - one of the people he loves - snatched away from him... it has to hurt. And it has to hurt for his other brothers and father, too. The whole thing just... sounds painful and he doesn't really know what to say to Leo at first.]
...
I... I know I cannot be much assistance, especially now, but... if your family needs anything, Leonardo, I will try my best to... assist.
[Though he'll certainly give them a wide berth if they'd rather have that instead. He just... wants to be supportive, if he can.]

Thank you, Robert.

It is the least I can do for... f-for your family, especially after all you have done for me.
[He tries to keep his voice steady, more for Leo's sake than his, though Leo is probably better at weathering this sort of thing to begin with. No need to add to his burdens, though.]
... Are the rest of you... s-safe in this chaos, at least?

We were unaffected until this morning sometime. [He wonders what's coming next. First the house turns into their old lair, now what?]

He seriously hopes that hasn't happened, because the last thing the Turtles need is to be in serious danger.]

He'll switch it to video, panning around to see. Pretty much just one large concrete and brick room. Off to one side are two sets of bunk beds with thin mattresses, a couch that looks more like the backseats to a car with a small tv in front of it. Some things for training around it too. There's three doorways in the back too.]
((OOC: And for visual help, have This, This, and This. Just, you know, ignore Splinter and the adorable chibis. xD))

But... it must be painful to see these things with one member gone.]
At the least it seems... peaceful...
[There's nothing dangerous as far as he can tell. And the Hamatos deserve a break.]

For now. [Hopefully that won't change.] I wish Raph was here to see it, though. [He says it softly. Even Raph probably would have loved to see the old lair. His absence definitely puts a damper on it.

I wish he was with you as well, even though... that might be selfish of me to say.

He gives a sigh.]
He's better off at home. [He just has to keep telling himself that. Even if they have to hide on their world. It's better than being here, better than being little more than test subjects for cruel scientists.]

They hate everybody equally. Except the Third Party.]
... I... I suppose so.
[If Leo was nearby Robert might want to give the turtle a hug. As it is, though, he just traces his fingers over the journal page.]

How are you holding up?

It has been... i-interesting to see Terra again... albeit in a very strange fashion. [And full of things that want to kill him.]

... and, and there are many aggressive s-simulated beings that have appeared... some of them are from Terra, but others are from c-completely different places.

I've heard of people being attacked. [Another reason he's kept them indoors, away from this craziness.]
