Well... Do you want to reconnect? That's the important question, I mean...

You done fine without it for so long after all.

[He wants to say "yes, do it" but it's Leo's choice. So being restrained here.]

[grabaslice]

I think so?

I keep just wondering if I can, or if its a good idea.

I wouldn't mind, if I could keep it with you and Casey though. I don't want to bother the other teens.

[notapancake]

Of course it's a good idea!

The worst that can happen is you don't reconnect, right? Also goodness, it'd be nice to have another way to keep track of you two.

[grabaslice]

You act like we get into a lot of trouble around here. We literally live in the same apartment, you nerd. You could walk out and throw a shoe at me whenever you wanted.

I guess that's fair enough. I just don't want to get my hopes up. Much less yours or Casey's hopes up.

[notapancake]

And? You'll be happy when something happens and it comes in clutch.

I shall keep my hopes tempered then.

[grabaslice]

Oh, I'm sure. It also means I can reach across the ninpo and pester you. Can you deal with that?

Good. Cause I don't want you to think it'll happen if it just... doesn't.

[notapancake]

I mean, you can try.

If it doesn't, it just means we have to keep trying, Nardo.

[grabaslice]

Yeah, its.... always about trying and trying.

Nothing is ever easy, huh?

[notapancake]

What is it, some saying or something like that:

"Nothing worth doing is ever easy" so yeah. But it'll be worth it.

[grabaslice]

Yeah, yeah, I... I know.

Still going to be strange. I missed it, but I got used to not thinking about it much.

[notapancake]

Look. I kind of get it?

I felt disconnected from the whole thing until I... started studying ninpo more.

[Also known as "after Splinter died".]

And anyway, you'll adjust. You're good at that.

[grabaslice]

You're technically more of an expert at ninpo than I am at this point. I should really just be asking you for notes.

Yeah, thanks, Dee. I appreciate it.

[notapancake]

Ha! I don't think you could follow my notes.

And I'm just stating a fact, Leo.

[grabaslice]

If its not written in some complicated cipher, I should read it just fine. Or at least understand 4%.

Still.

[notapancake]

It's written in plain english.

[aka In as complicated words as Donnie loves to use.]

That 4% that you'll forget anyway.

[grabaslice]

Sounds fake, but okay.

I managed the rebellion just fine on that 4%.

[notapancake]

That's different and you know it.

[grabaslice]

If you weren't using ten dollar words every couple sentences, I'm pretty sure I could keep up just fine.

Dunno bout that, took a lot of thinking and strategizing to keep things moving.

[notapancake]

I don't do that and you know it!

And I mean it's more dealing with people and feelings and that kind of stuff. So totally different.

[grabaslice]

Okay then, gimme a random not cherry picked sentence from your research that doesn't contain a ten dollar word.

I'm just telling you, I can at least try to read your research, I'm not dumb.

[notapancake]

What do you even consider a ten dollar word?

I know you're not.

[grabaslice]

electroweak symmetry breaking. Technically more a twenty dollar phrase, but, my point still stands.

Do you want me to not read your notes? Cause that's fine too.

[notapancake]

None of those are twenty dollar words!

And I don't exactly have all my notes here, just what's in my goggles and what I left for you all in Junior's mask.

[Yeah, Casey had his goggles and gave them back.]

[grabaslice]

They absolutely are and you know they are!

Alright, alright. Fiiiine. I guess I'll just wing it like I planned.

[notapancake]

Oh my gosh. You're not dashing the dumdum accusations right now.

I never said you can't read them, just I'm not sure what I have on hand.
