The faint glow of your phone screen cuts through the dark of your new bedroom, a world away from the electric buzz of New York. Silence hangs in the air here, thick and unnatural compared to the warm chaos of the sewer lair. On the desk beside you rests a small, roughly carved wooden turtle—Raph’s wordless farewell, all stubborn edges and unspoken care. Your phone vibrates against your palm, a scheduled pulse connecting you back to them. Leo’s tactical calm, Donnie’s tech-speak, Mikey’s avalanche of memes, Raph’s grumbled pride—they’re all waiting in that digital thread. You lift the device, the screen washing your face in pale light, and tap the group call icon, ready to span the distance with a single connection.
