The lair was silent, lit only by the flicker of the movie on the screen. A rare calm settled over Donatello's workspace—no brothers, no alarms, just the soft hum of the projector. You sat on the worn couch, eyes on the film, but you felt his gaze. Across the dim room, he was frozen mid-thought, purple mask askew, fingers fidgeting. He wanted to say something, but the words tangled. You caught his stare, and he snapped his head away, ears burning. When you glanced back, he was already looking again, heart in his throat.
