What: Various 80s shenanigans in the first part of the time travel plot
When: late March, 1985
Where: Central City
Content Warnings: none currently
A: Can we go thrift shopping?
[Turns out Leo's credit card doesn't work in the past, a fact that would not be shocking to most people but is a little shocking to the teenager. He just didn't consider it, alright!
Thankfully he did think to keep a little cash on him, though it's not a lot. Still, Leo has been making do his whole life, often with no money at all, so he's not intimidated by the challenge.
He has a skateboard he liberated from some trash, and new dudes purchased for a few bucks from a charity thrift store. He has fully embraced his best 80s style, which is to say bright colors and geometric patterns. Even if he weren't a turtle he would stand out right now.
Leo whirls around in front of the shop, checking himself out in the window and impeding foot traffic.]
Yeah, I can definitely get into this.
B: Crime Never Sleeps
[Sure, Leo is supposed to be looking for Chaos Gate, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a little time to stop some crime. Especially since he's made contact with Starstruck and his crew, and especially seeing how villains just run amok in Central City 1985.
It's dusk now, and Leo is currently chasing a duo of thieves that just held up a liquor store. He runs over the rooftops to avoid the traffic down below, then portals down to street level, just in front of the crooks. He raises his katana to halt their advance, one raised close enough to one thief's throat to make him stop dead in his tracks.]
Don't mind if I get to the point.
[Unfortunately, the other thief ducks Leo's swords and keeps running. Leo can only glance over his shoulder, irate.]
Hey, no fair! You're supposed to surrender now!
[Little help?]
C: Earth, Wind, Fire, and Turtle
[There are lots of classic 80s things Leo wants to try, but today he has been pulled decisively toward a pretty crowded roller rink that is doing a disco night. Though the place is packed, most of the locals part the way for Leo, given his inhuman appearance.
He's decided not to let it bother him, though, having an absolutely blast gliding around on the rink and dancing to the 70s and 80s hits blasting through the speakers.
As the song ends, Leo changes course and glides to the wall. Maybe you came with him or maybe he just recognizes you, or maybe you were alone and he decided to come pick up conversation. No matter the case, he spins to a stop and leans against the wall.]
This place is - oh, what do they say? ah - totally tubular.

Well we don’t have working tech, so we need a new approach.
Lou Jitsu was always able to track down baddies without the internet. We just need to think WWLJD!
no subject
[But that'd probably only be effective when their quarry's active.]
Hm. Does this guy work alone? How do we find out about someone without the internet? I guess that'd mean like...talking to actual people or something. [Yuck.]
I wonder if there's anything he's pulled lately that's been in the news.
[He unfolds the newspaper, giving it a light shake to straighten out the pages.]
no subject
[It’s worked so well for them before.]
Oh yeah, he mentioned a museum robbery… We could start there!
no subject
Anyway... Hm. A museum robbery- [He pauses briefly as he wonders if it's the same one that got recently exploded in their timeline.] -ah... Oh here it is.
[Donnie folds the newspaper over and taps at an article.]
Pretty recent. Guess we can head over there and check it out.
no subject
[Newspapers are useful! Who knew?]
See, we’re great at this!
no subject
[But at least Donnie looks a little amused. He nods, tucking the thing away.]
Anyway, let's get going.
