"So, does this happen a lot?"
"It's been happening more and more lately." Karai nodded a little, hazel eyes remaining focused on the intense stand off between Donatello and Casey Jones. She decided that hanging out with Mikey and letting him show her his favourite spy spots was an excellent idea. He was filling her in on all the family drama, individual quirks of her new family, and the best ways to eavesdrop on everyone. Spending time with her little brother turned out to be a hell of a good time.
They were on the very top of the spiral stair case leading to the surface, laying on their stomachs and peering over the edge, and had been doing so for an hour and a half. And neither Donatello or Jones had noticed them.
"Do they even realise she's left?" Mikey shook his head with a cheeky giggle.
"They're way too angry with each other. You can smell the testosterone from here!" She blinked in mild surprise; he was actually more intelligent than the others gave him credit, but it seemed as though he lead them to believe that on purpose. As to why he chose to reveal this side of himself to a girl who'd tried to kill him and his family several times remained to be seen. But she wasn't complaining.
"Where'd she go?," the dark haired girl asked, eyes darting around in search of April.
"In the kitchen, talking to Raph." He then nodded his head sideways, pushing up onto his knees. She followed his lead, crawling along the rafters until they were sat in a rather cozy nook above the kitchen sink, peering down at the red head and older turtle at the table.
"I swear they're getting worse," they heard April saying. "I think they've got some seriously pent up sexual tension." Raphael laughed, snorting into his bowl of ramen.
"Oh man, I didn't need to envision that about my lil' brother and best bud!"
"Sorry! What would you do if those two hooked up?" He shrugged and poked at his food.
"Establish with Casey that my egg-headed little brother is not a play thing, and will be treated with respect."
Aaaaand I fell asleep. Never finished this one and don't intend to. Now I'd like to point out how, since this is more in Karai's point of view, she thinks of everyone with their full names; "Donatello", "Casey Jones", "Raphael", etcetera. But not Mikey. She's very much comfortable with shortening Michaelangelo and Leonardo's names because she feels closest to them, while holding a level of respect for the others that unconsciously prevents her from doing so, especially with Raph. You see all the little details I think of, but then lose with my short attention span? Dammit.
Hail to the princess, baby!
