Let's do the time warp again~
Who: Leonardo Hamato ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
faceguy and YOU
What: Leo has been aged up... into extra wrinkly adult Leo with added apocalypse vibes
When: Late July/early August
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: Potential for apocalypse talk, body horror, family death, dismemberment
[Master Leonardo, leader of the resistance, wakes up in a place he did not fall asleep - in the softest bed with the silkiest sheets he's felt in, well, ever. And he knows right away that some shenanigans are definitely occurring. This is not hisbeautiful house time, and this is not his beautiful wife body. He doesn't know everything, but enough foreign memories are there to explain that much.
Somehow he's ended up in the body of his younger self, somewhere that is not his own timeline. Weird, but then, his whole life has been weird from the beginning.
He's feeling pretty calm about it, all things considered. While he may not know exactly what's going on, he knows that this is a place his younger self found safe, and he feels like this situation will resolve itself sooner or later. He'll ask Mikey for theories once he's back, assuming he remembers it.
For now, well... might as well take advantage of a world that isn't on its last leg.]
A: Hot Bean Juice - 33-year-old Leo (Open to anyone with access to Dylan Brock's penthouse)
Does this apartment belong to a movie star or something? Swank-kaaay.
[Leo can't help but stare around in awe as he moves through the penthouse - even pre-apocalypse, he'd never been in a place so nice, outside Big Mama's hotel. Hopefully no one thinks he's an intruder; maybe he should come up with a better cover story than, "Don't worry, I'm just temporarily possessing my teen self's body."
Leo at this age is considerably taller than his younger self, just over six feet. He's broad and muscular, and one arm is missing, though luckily for him his big, bulky robot arm came with him. He carries one sword instead of two, a bright red mask wound tight around the hilt. He's got a good number of scars and a good number of wrinkles, but his smile is easy and relaxed as he moves around.
He heads for the kitchen (once he finds it), and quickly finds exactly what he was hoping for.]
Oh, thank you, Pizza Supreme in the Sky.
[It takes him a moment to figure out the coffee maker, but soon enough he has a mug full of steaming hot coffee, inhaling the scent so hard he nearly snorts it all up his nose.]
I've missed this so much.
[He hopes he remembers this; he wants to lord it over Donnie later.]
B: Bless the Rains Down in Michigan - 33-year-old Leo (OTA)
[Realizing his younger self has been living in Michigan, of all places, had been a bit of a shock, but Leo is nothing if not adaptable. He's figured out how to get around this place quickly enough, utilizing his ninja skills, and has taken some time to explore.
Rain moved in about an hour ago and hasn't let up, and Leo is delighted. No one appreciates how nice it is to just sit and let the rain hit your face until the water dries up and is replaced with acid.
Leo's sitting up on a rooftop currently, his feet dangling over the edge, his face just... turned up toward the sky, letting the rain hit it. His mask and scarf and pants are soaked through, but his eyes are closed and his smile is content.
He's remarkably good at noticing when someone is approaching him, no matter how much or how little noise they're making. He doesn't even look, he just speaks.]
You ever think about how great rain is?
C: And I Feel Fine - 40-year-old Leo (OTA)
C1
[Another slip, another distortion, and an older Leo is here again. From even further into the apocalypse now, his face looks even more haggard, his clothes even more dirty and torn, new scars and new furrows covering his skin and shell. Two masks decorate his sword's hilt now, purple and red intertwined.
He's pretty sure he's dead, or will be soon. His time is over, his world is lost. But he sent Casey back, and he has all the faith in the world that Casey will accomplish the task Leo gave him.
Casey is their hope, after all. And hope is a ninja's greatest weapon.
His family is gone, and it stings, but there's a peace Leo feels, too. He'll be back with them again soon - Dad, Raph, and Donnie, who he's missed for so long, April and Mikey, the fresh and still stinging wounds. But first, seems like his soul is taking another detour.
The lights and crowds of Central City are... a lot for someone who's grown so accustomed to the ruins of civilization, and Leo finds himself getting away from it, eventually stopping in a scraggly, rundown park that it doesn't look like many people like to enter. Not that Leo is too worried about anyone attacking him, and he has enough of his younger self's understanding of the world to know he isn't putting him in any danger by being out in public.
He finds a bench and sits on it, just for awhile, watching the pigeons that hop by, the bugs, the wind in the trees.
Life here isn't perfect, he knows: there's crime, there's death, there's suffering. But there's life too, and isn't that incredible?
He just wishes he could have given his own world that back.
He'll stay seated until someone else comes along - if they look like they want the bench, Leo will move to the side.]
Hey, sorry - didn't mean to take up the whole seat, heh.
C2
[Maybe there's a reason people avoid this park, actually, because while Leo is chilling, he hears a crime in progress - specifically a mugging.
Leo gets up, moving quietly to get closer and take a look. It's a human with a gun, and he's not impressed in the slightest.
Soundlessly, Leo moves behind the mugger... and plucks the gun right out of the guy's hand, clicking the safety and then spinning it around his finger.]
I'll be taking that, thank you!
["Hey!" starts the mugger, but when he turns around and gets a look at Leo... he decides to make a hasty retreat.
Maybe you were the victim, or maybe you're just a bystander - either way, catch Leo smirking at the guy's retreating back.]
Ah, come on - [He glances at the person standing there, winking.] - there's no way this handsome face is that scary.
[[OOC: I'll match you if you'd rather do prose than brackets. Also I don't have room for adult Leo icons so you get teen Leo icons but just imagine the big guy, thanks.
Hit me up if you'd like something more specific!]]

no subject
All right, all right.
[Hopefully Leo tires of games before he runs out of quarters, but he pulls out another coin to hand over.]
no subject
Leo’s going to need the stool again, but once he’s where he can see the controls he gets excited. It’s an old racing game that uses a joystick and not a wheel, but Leo doesn’t mind at all.]
I’m gonna drive real fast! Like you, Dee!
no subject
Donnie stands just to the side and behind Leo, watching as Leo gets himself settled on the stool and at the controls.]
Oh yeah? Make me proud!
no subject
He does go fast, but he also crashes into the wall a lot. Every time there's a little pixelated explosion he seems stuck between laughing (because destruction is fun) and groaning (because he's losing).
Pretty soon he learns he can run other cars off the road and make them explode and that becomes his new goal.]
Yeah, got one!
no subject
[Donnie makes this observation mostly to himself but he's still grinning, finding his little brother's antics entertaining. He's fully behind destruction, and what's more, it means less competition for Leo.]
Oh, oh, oh- that one, get that one next!
[Backseat driver, that is him.]
no subject
Donnie's backseat driving is heeded, and Leo steers his car into the indicated one, cheering when it crashes into the wall.]
Yeeeaaah!!
[This is way more fun than simple racing.]
no subject
[He's the best encouragement, clearly.]
Nice one! Bump this next guy off and that'll get you into the finals for the next race!
no subject
[He swerves wildly into it, and then... boom! The opponent's car explodes!]
Yeah! Did it!!
no subject
[He gives that little bandanna'd head a playful scrub with his hand.]
no subject
Time for the final! Leo leans into the controls as the countdown starts.]
Time to win! Vroom!
no subject
Donnie cups his hands to his face to cheer Leo on as the green light comes on and the "GO!" appears across the top of the screen.]
no subject
Pretty soon there are only three cars standing between him and victory.]
no subject
[It's fine, totally oblivious to the weird looks and side-glances they're getting.]
no subject
Leo laughs at Donnie’s encouragement, driving the next two cars off the road. There’s only one left and a short stretch of track!
And…
Boom! He makes it!]
Yeeeeeaaaaaaah!!! Leo, Leo!!
[Leo cheers as he wins.]
no subject
[Donnie gives his little brother's head a pat. Those were tactics he could be proud of!]
I'd say that was more than worthy of a reward.
no subject
Reward!?
[Like a present!? Score!]
no subject
Yep! What say we head to the comic book store?
no subject
[He’ll grab that hand, practically dragging Donnie back out of the arcade.]
no subject
Hey, the comic store won't be going anywhere, no need to rush!
[The comic store at least isn't too far from the arcade, so if Leo looks, it won't be difficult for him to spot it.]
no subject
He looks around until he spots it, pointing it out to Donnie.]
There!
no subject
[He pushes the door open with his other hand for Leo once they reach it.]
Now remember, these aren't all your comics so you have to be careful with them like they're all collector's editions. But I'll let you pick one thing as your reward for winning the race, okay?
no subject
Everything is like a special limited edition! He can do that.
He’s excited as he moves between the shelves, wide eyes taking in all the bright colors, the superheroes and the spaceships and the adventurers. He stops and looks at a few things, being pretty good about not messing anything up, but he puts them back before moving on.
Eventually he starts to look confused.]
Where’s Juppy Jim?
no subject
He picks a comic up from the shelf to flip through when the inevitable question is asked.]
Uuuuh... Oh! Well, um. It's a pretty old title, Leo. This place only has the newer stuff. But that doesn't mean there isn't any other interesting ones!
no subject
I want one about space!
[He toddles over to one that looks pretty promising, since the superheroes on the cover are floating around in zero gravity.]
no subject
Space, huh.
[Because of course he does. As Leo looks at one comic, Donnie glances over the covers on the higher shelves to see if there might anything appealing to a space-obsessed turtle-tot.]
