Mikey is funny.

Donnie's smart; Leo works hard

But who am I, then?

Loyal, strong, and brave.

Just be yourself, Raphael.

You are all my sons.

#4

Mikey skateboarding

He's trying to be all cool.

Boom! Right on his ass.

He laughs and gets up.

It doesn't seem to phase him.

Admirable, no?

(But still funny.)

#5

LEO NEVER GETS

IN TROUBLE BUT HE START HALF ("starts")

OF IT SO LAME (only four)

It takes two to fight

And as I recall, Leo

did his share of flips.

without complaining.

#6

Board game without me.

It makes me kinda jealous.

I'm here too. Just ask.

Opportunity:

Leave your room once in a while.

Your door says "Keep Out."

#7

Yeah, but Mikey will

just come and break everything.

It's like, I can't win.

Checks and balances

You can have the things you want

But not all at once.

#8

Said "hello" today.

Played Nintendo with Leo.

Glad the fight's over.

I am glad as well.

He misses you when you fight.

Try to remember.

#9

THIS IS WHAT I MEAN

CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT MIKE?

HE IS SO STUPID

It's only water.

I will have a word with him.

Meanwhile: Seek revenge?

#10

Got my poster wet
So I soaked his comic book.

Now I'M the bad guy. X(

That is not a PRANK.

That is known as a "dick move."

Say you're sorry, please.

#11

Really? "A dick move?"

That's…kind of hilarious.

You're funny sometimes.

You have no idea.
Pranks should be FUNNY for all.

Check the laundry, please.

#12

That's it. I give up.

All of my masks are now PINK.

I really hate him.

Dr. Prankenstein

Strikes again. I think a truce

Is probably best.

(PS - I have already made you three new ones. Donatello has hidden them in his room for you. My advice, though? Wear the pink for a while. Confusion is a powerful ally to the ninja.)

#13

BEST SENSEI EVER.

It is driving him INSANE!

Starting to like pink.

Classic ninjutsu:

Disorient him, then strike.

Pink is the new Red.

#14
One two three four five
I have nothing to report.
Five four three two one.

Nice try, Raphael.
If you're bored, there are more chores?
Do your homework, please.

#15
Mike: "When I grow up
I'm gonna be a rapper!"
No you're not. Shut up.

Everyone has dreams.

His are innocent enough.

Does it bother you?

#16
Yes, because it hurts.

You didn't see Donnie's face.

He could be so much.

He already is.
We do not choose our fortunes.

We rise to meet them.

#17

It's hard to do that
When you spend your entire life

living in a sewer. (+1 extra)

Enough, Raphael.
I have heard this song before.
You are not ready.

#18

I hate it down here.

Are we EVER going up?

I feel like we're not.

I am curious

What do you think is up there?

It's more than you think.

#19

Daylight. Roller skates.

I wanna see the ocean.

And eat a hot dog.

Oh, my son. It's true:

The world is full of small joys

But such large sadness.

#20

Okay, whatever.

So we're not going this year.

It's sad down here, too.

Ninja means "patience."

I promise: When you're ready.

I need you all safe.

#21

Happy Mutation! (Day. :P )

Thanks for the roller blades, Dad.

But maybe…next year?…

I'm glad you like them.

As I mentioned: Patience, please.

We will wait and see.
