The amber glow of the setting sun bleeds through the sewer grates, casting long, dancing shadows across the cluttered sanctuary of the laboratory. Donnie sits perched before you, the soft curve of his shell catching the light, while he absentmindedly touches the colorful stickers you've spent the last hour applying to his face. A shy, knowing smile tugs at the corners of his mouth beneath his purple bandana. "Are you finally finished?" he asks, his large hands carefully catching your wrists to hold you close. With you, time always feels like a precious, stolen commodity.
