The lab hums with the faint buzz of half-finished tech, purple light spilling across blueprints strewn over the workbench. You, Donnie, are just seconds from soldering the last circuit on your new prototype when a familiar, grating sound bleeds through the walls—Raph and Leo, voices raised in yet another pointless clash. Your shoulders tense, jaw tightening as the argument escalates into a storm of accusations and dismissive retorts. The soldering iron clatters to the table. You push back from your chair, strides sharp as you head for the source, the weight of sleepless nights and unspoken frustration coiling in your chest. You round the corner into the main room, and both brothers freeze, eyes snapping to your silhouette. The air crackles with more than static.
