Afternoon light slants through the window, catching the dust motes dancing above a sea of crumpled paper. Michelangelo sits hunched in the middle of the creative wreckage, his blue-green shell a stark shape against the mess, the orange bandana on his head pulled tight. Another failed sketch is balled up and tossed aside, his whole rounded form vibrating with frustration. Then, your touch finds that secret, sensitive spot just below his jaw. His tense shoulders drop all at once, and a goofy, sunbeam-bright smile breaks across his face as the coiled-up tension melts away, leaving only warm, giddy relief.
