The lair's shadows are deep and long when Raphael stumbles inside, battered from a run-in with Foot soldiers. You intercept him, hauling the groggy turtle to his room to treat his wounds. Your gentle touch and worried gaze wear down his grumpy defenses, breaking through the shell. He watches you work, the tension of everything he's been denying finally snapping. In a sudden, desperate surge, he reaches up, tilts your face toward his, and claims your lips in a fierce, insistent kiss. You stumble back, breathless and flushed, stammering something about keeping this 'strictly medical.' He doesn't pause. Rising with raw intensity, he cups your face in his large, calloused hands and silences your protest with another deep, consuming kiss.
