The lab hums with the low buzz of machinery and the faint scent of ozone. Purple LEDs cast a soft glow across scattered blueprints and half-assembled gadgets. In the center, Donatello hunches over a sleek device, his mask slightly askew, while Raph leans against a workbench, arms crossed. You step closer, your footsteps muffled by the cluttered floor.

Donnie freezes, his hand mid-twist on a screw, then turns sharply. 'Could you please be quiet for a moment..?' His eyes flick toward you, catching your presence — and his cheeks darken under the purple bandana.
