I did a bad thing… I don’t regret the thing I did. If you’re wondering what I did, I’ll tell you what I did.

I did a bad thing… vvvvv (check a short snippet of what I did)

Hope, happiness, excitement, relief. His heart burst with utmost joy that he couldn’t even fathom the mystery of how Splinter was back from the dead. He didn’t care. Splinter’s back!

“Father!” Leonardo called out and ran at the mutant rat and threw himself to embrace his father.

“Whoa—gotta say, I wasn’t expecting you!”

Leonardo pushed away from the mutant he was hugging, appalled by the voice. That’s not Splinter. That’s not his father. Did he—?

The young mutant looks up, his hope crumbling to pieces the second he sees his elder counterpart. How could he have been so stupid? How could he have mistaken Lee as Splinter? Is he so distraught by his father’s death that any adult mutant standing in this dojo could pass as Splinter?

Leonardo backs up, rubbing his upper arm nervously as he apologizes. “I’m sorry, I thought—you know. No, you don’t know—uh, geez. I didn’t mean to confuse you. —and hug you. —and call you my dad.”

Lee doesn’t look at all affected by Leonardo’s mistake. Instead, the elder smiles down at him, a smile that is near pitying. “Don’t worry about it. I thought you were someone else for a second too. I didn’t think I’d hear someone call me that here.”
