Part 1- Brothers in a Can
-
A COMIC?! yes! But also! I’m an exhausted college student with a job so updates…. once every two weeks at best, as well as inconsistent details, poor writing, and perhaps even instances of sleep deprived nonsense.
That being said, I’m soooooooo excited to draw this so I’m going to keep it going as long as my cringe driven heart lets me!
A crossover fic :)

It was Leo's turn to choose the family outing Something about this place... he always looks forward to this spot
If Donnie chooses the botanical gardens, I hc that Mikey chooses museums, Raph the Central Park Zoo, and Leo the aquarium
I'm not sure how I feel with this piece. I like the idea and composition, but I know my coloring skills still need a lot of work and I wish I was confidant enough to have painted everything instead of relying on so many shortcuts ;v;
I listened to "August 30, 2023: Super Blue Moon" by Sleeping At Last while working on this and I think you should too
#tmnt#rottmnt#teenage mutant ninja turtles#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#my art#rise leo#rise of the turtles#rise of the tmnt#jellyfish#jellies are my fav areas in aquariums next to sharks <3#i originally had mikey moving off screen#but i nixed it cause i wanted it to be just leo and the jellies#leo with jellies

I was gonna make this a collection of like, the rise turtles and their fav shades of their fav colors, but then Leo didn't turn out right and I am yet to be mature about it and just try again.

Donnie's is Indigo purple, Mikey's is Soda orange, Leo's is Cornflower blue and Raph's would be Candy red I think

Hello there, skeleton annon here,
Was reading your pirate au and was wondering, Leo was raised by big mama right? Then how do the others know him? Were they also big mamas kids? Or is it a separated au where they were raised by splinter without him?
Can't wait for the next update!! :D
- 💀
totally accurate recreation of how they met-
HI!! TY FOR THE ASK :DD
boutta info dump a lil-
OKAY SO! Yes!! Leo was raised by big mama, and the others, by Splinter~ So I suppose I'd consider it a separated AU! :)
Not gonna reveal toooo much on Splinter atm cause I actually have a bit of a whole mini-arc thing for him planned, he may be filling in his role of absent father once more guys im sorry- /lh
The others were told to get some of their own experience out at sea, But obviously, the only knowledge they have of it is through what stories Splinter has shared with them and the minimal training he's taught em. very bare-bones stuff. So they are kinda just out there wandering with no real goal or idea of what to actually do
Until they find leo that is!!
Despite finding him, the uh, the guys... don't actually know that leo..is their brother...YET!! YET!
And vice versa, Leo just saw these guys and was like
"Oh, this lot looks cool~ and i am desperate for a crew and im alone out here and kinda sad and ihavenoideawhatimdoingOHGOD- so uh, join me? :)"
totally unbeknownst to him that they are his bro's/that he even HAS brothers. As IF big mama would ever give him that type of hope yk? ;)
the three already know April too, she joins later on after the ship pulls into a shipping port and finds her trying to pick a fight with a rouge mayhem who stole her boot.
AH- ANYWAY TY FOR THE ASK!!!! Hope that clears it up a lil :))
#sm more I wanna say about it#but im reaaalllly bad at explaining things in written form#idk comics just make it easier TwT#TY FOR THE ASK!!!#asks about anlfm are always my fav :')))#hope you have a lovely day <3#sperated au's have my heart what can i say uvu#anlfm#a ninjas life for me#rottmnt au#rottmnt#rottmnt comic#rottmnt donnie#rottmnt mikey#rottmnt raph#rottmnt leo#rottmnt fanart#tribbleart#tribbletalks#asks

i actually kind of think that the 2003 turtles are so close that none of them really have "a favourite" brother.
Except for Mikey, who's favourite brother is very clearly and obviously Leo lmao
#tmnt 2003#i think ive seen ppl headcanon that don's fav is raph and raph's fav is don#and them being twins#and im like. sure why not? i can see it though i dont feel strongly enough about it to incorporate in my headcanons#but the mikey favoring leo is like soooooo real and true#i will pull out receipts#frankly mikey defending leo in s4 should be proof enough#but there are a bunch of lil moments too#like that s1 ep when leo would say cliche action phrases but sounded cool doing and mikey tried copying big brother#or the one (1) time leo smacked mikey and mikey went 'et tu leo?' when he usually accepts them with just an 'ow!' or 'hey!'#or mikey gushing about superheroes to him#the leo pumpkin#WHATEVER. they're cute ok#leo is like the only one that doesnt really get on his case for dumb jokes or not staying focused and stuff#and i just think mikey appreciates it a lot#headcanon that leo used to read those comics to or with mikey#hence why he's got such a love for dumb puns and jokes

ahhh we're nearing the end! day 26 of tmaynt!!
i think its probably pretty obvious but 2012 is probably my favorite to draw and it was what started my love for tmnt about a decade ago, but i dont think i can actually choose between 2012, 2003 and rise. i also watched the entirety of 2003 way back when i first got into tmnt and 2012 and 2003 constantly wrestled for my favorite, but now that ive also finished rise its wiggled its way up there and all three are very good and very important to me for very different reasons

Double-Mutated Mikey
Chapter 41: Technoscience
Continued from the short story written by @boots-with-the-fur-club
Prev || Next
Leo still doesn't know how he managed to wriggle himself away from Raph's mother hen-ing, but here he is now -- wandering the halls alone, looking for that Honey-doctor-whoever.
Maybe he should have stayed with Mikey.... he can't help but worry about him. Yes, he has his ninpo back, but still... This place is a bad place. Leo's not sure how to explain it beyond that. It's like being inside a house you know is the location for a horror movie. It reeks of evil.
Besides, he still has the 'epipen' Mikey handed him tucked safely away in his fanny pack.
Leo wonders what Mikey will do with it. After their whole conversation concerning how Mikey is changed now, and how Leo has been adamant that they've accepted him no matter what... he wonders what Mikey's decision will be. He could still take it and change back into his old self. Get back to 'normal'. Become the person he used to be, become the version of himself he's been fighting so hard to get back to.
Or, he could refuse it. Stay like this, with claws and a giant tail and fangs.
What would life be like after that?
Honestly, Leo hadn't even considered that option until the morning when Donnie said he couldn't figure out a retro-mutagen on his own. He said it was impossible. It was a blow to the stomach back then, a dagger in the heart to think of that. To think of Mikey forever trapped in a body that could barely speak and not yet walk upright, a body tormented by thoughts from another voice, a body broken and pieced back together crudely. At the time, it felt like giving up. But now...?
Now, Mikey can convey himself perfectly and speak clearly. Now, Mikey can walk on two legs with very little assistance. Now, Mikey's head is clear of torment.
Now, Mikey is Mikey again.
So what exactly is his choice?
Leo thinks he might know what his brother's choice will be. But he's not sure if it's the right one...
In any case, now's not the time to worry over it. He's on a search and rescue mission. Leo hobbles his way up the stairs until he feels something in his gut. It's soft, small, gentle. A light pulling sensation he can only describe as a knowing, a connection, or maybe even a reconnection, if that makes sense.
Ninpo.
A few minutes later, he gets a message from Donnie that he's found their weapons.
"Ah, so that's what that was," Leo sighs to himself.
He wishes he had his swords with him now. He usually doesn't mind searching the old fashioned way, but with the injuries he has and the time they're losing... Every extra minute in this place makes him more and more nervous.
Leo starts to heave and pant as he climbs yet another flight of stairs. He figures he's almost at the top of the whole place by now...
He gasps for breath as he leans against a door in the stairwell, which leads to yet another floor.
"Oh... Pizza supreme... I need to work out more... or not get electrocuted so much..."
Leo notices the door he's leaning against has a keypad by the handle. Huh. That's strange, none of the other doors have that...
It's either a really good sign or a really bad sign.
Leo wishes yet again that he had his portal swords... it would make things so much easier...
He glances to the side and notes the stairwell railing. Oh well. He'll have to improvise...
He grips the railing and starts shaking it, testing it for weak points. Raph would be better at this next part, but Leo can manage on his own. He pulls on one end and kicks at the other, yanking as hard as he can. It starts to come loose.
"Almost there... almost... come on, baby...!" Leo groans, wrenching the metal bar as hard as he can.
Finally, it starts to break apart! Leo just needs one good shove... He grips the thing as tightly as he can and pushes it as far as it can go. He hears a crunch of metal. One more go ought to do it! Leo revs up, takes a few steps back, rushes forwards and grips the rail with all his might before jumping over and yanking it down with him. The bar snaps off the rail and falls along with the slider turtle.
Leo concentrates, gripping the rail close to his chest as he falls down the center of the stairwell. The metal bar glows blue, and transforms into a sword.
"Man oh man, do I love my ninpo," Leo chuckles to himself, before slicing a hole in space beneath him.
He ends up tumbling right in front of the door at the top floor again, skidding to a halt as he pants for breath again. He may love his ninpo, but transforming random objects into swords like that takes it out of him. Especially when he already has his own swords... made from garden spades....
The sword flickers softly. Leo has to hurry before he exhausts his ninpo... He remembers what happened the last time he did this -- he portalled himself and Mikey out of their bedroom and into Dee's lab after having a nightmare and promptly passed out from the exertion of transforming a metal ruler into a sword. Not his best moment...
Leo holds the sword steady and prays he doesn't pass out this time...
The runes and markings on the blade shimmer before he slices the air once again. Leo limps and lumbers through the portal, tripping slightly before landing on his hands and knees at the other side of the door. The sword fizzles under his palms and reverts to its former state.
"Well... at least I didn't... faint..." he chuckles airily to himself. "....Yet."
Leonardo stumbles through the hallway, placing all his weight on the walls to support him. He's awfully dizzy, and the pins-and-needles numbing pains that occupy his chest hasn't left either. Leo makes a mental note to get revenge on all tasers and cattle prods in the future...
Maybe he should have had Raph come along with him after all.
But he said he was fine, and he saw how badly Raph wanted to stay with Mikey this time around. He knows that Mikey forgave Raph and absolved him of any mistakes from the past, but even so. This mission hits a little too close to home....... for all of them.
Leo starts to notice that the walls are beginning to have doors. Was that always happening? How long has he been zoned out? Okay, he needs to find Dr. Honeycomb as fast as he can and get back to the guys as soon as possible. The adrenaline rush he got from having his ninpo restored and escaping is beginning to wear off.
Door after door after door... name after name after name. Leo isn't sure if it's the dyslexia acting up, or the injuries he sustained, but with every door he passes, it's getting harder to distinguish the words...
Vitcro Flaco... Rublolhp Crobato... Tlyod O'Foole... Ztayon Hnoyectut...
Wait, what was that last one?
Leo does a double take and stares at the nameplate on the door. Despite his headache flaring up the dyslexia, he deciphers the strange code as Zayton Honeycutt.
"Bingo," he chuckles to himself before kicking the door down with all the might he can manage. He secretly makes yet another mental note to thank Draxum for whatever he put in the ooze that made him and his brothers so freaking strong...
There's a loud yipe from inside as the door falls to the ground. Leo rushes in and finds a fidgety, nervous old man sitting on a pathetic cot in the middle of what looks like a mini lab or workspace. It's even smaller than Dee's traincar bedroom... The man on the bed has a long and frizzy white beard, accompanied by even frizzier white tufts of hair on his balding head. There are deep circles under his eyes, and his thin frame shakes terribly.
"W-who are -- what are --" he stammers, adjusting the glasses perched on his nose.
"No time," Leo grunts, tripping slightly as he runs up to the old guy. "You're Honeycutt, right? Friend of Casey Jones Jr. and Agent Bishop?"
"Bishop?" Honeycutt whimpers, standing to his feet immediately. "Is he okay? And C-Casey, the boy, did the EPF find him or --"
"Casey's fine, he's here actually," Leo says, grabbing the old man's hand. "We're getting you guys out of here."
Honeycutt nods softly before eyeing the rest of the teenager.
"You look terrible."
"How shocking," Leo jokes.
"That sounds like a very poignant joke..." Honeycutt trembles, quickly inspecting the marks on Leo's plastron. "I'm guessing the wordplay has some truth to it?"
"I'll be fine. C'mon, we're heading to the roof --"
"Wait!" Honeycutt interjects, pulling away quickly and running to the other side of the room. "I need to get some things first..."
"What--?! We're kind of on a deadline here!" Leo gripes.
"I know, I understand, but I have to take SAL with me."
"Who's Sal?" Leo asks, glancing around the room carefully. "A pet goldfish or something?"
"No, SAL is my life's work," Honeycutt chuckles. "You see, I've been working to create artificial intelligence -- an artificial lifeform, if you will. A mechanical body with a genuine mind... and maybe even a soul. But that's for the philosophers to work out, I'm interested in seeing if it's possible to create consciousness within a machine!"
"Wait, you mean AI?" Leo clarifies, somewhat taken aback. "Doesn't that usually result in like... killer robots that destroy humanity?"
"Well... Yes," Honeycutt sighs. "My last attempt was quite... violent, to be truthful. I assume you've met Ms. Campbell by now?"
"Not yet, who's she?" Leo asks, looking over his shoulder to make sure no one is in the hall. He thought he heard something...
"Well, she was my last attempt at creating artificial intelligence," Honeycutt explains, as he packs up several irreplaceable-looking tools and gadgets. "But I got impatient with the code and morality matrixes, and I may have borrowed some data from... unfriendly sources."
"Sounds riveting," Leo says impatiently as he goes to push the old man and his oversized tin toy through the door, "You and Donnie should schedule a brunch meetup or something. But we got to go, NOW."
Honeycutt gasps and freezes as Leo tries to shove him again. He hears a click.
Leo looks up and sees a woman standing in the doorway, holding what Leo pathetically hopes is a toy blaster, and not the real thing.
"A-Abigail," Honeycutt gasps, smiling nervously as his entire body starts trembling with fear. "W-what a surprise!"
"Yeah," the woman says, sounding almost as nervous as him. "It really is. What are you doing, Zayton?"
"W-well, there was an evacuation going on, wasn't there--?"
"Don't play dumb with me, we both know you're too smart for that to work," Abigail growls. She slowly trains the blaster at the two of them, eyes darting back and forth, unsure of who to glare at. "...How could you betray us like this?!"
"B-betray?" Honeycutt stutters.
"Look, maybe we can continue this confrontation at a later date, or maybe never --" Leo attempts.
"You were going to sell us out!" Abigail yells, stomping forward and forcing Professor Honeycutt to take several steps back, along with Leo behind him. "Chaplin told us EVERYTHING! You and that rogue agent were going to go to the police?! With all our work?! All of MY work, Zayton?!"
"I-I'm sorry, Abigail," Honeycutt stammers. "But it was getting out of hand..."
"You don't even understand the meaning of the word!" she screams in his face. "OUT OF HAND?! You were right alongside us, performing your own experiments on the monster! You were using the funding, just like we were! You got your share, and you thought you could just run away?!"
Leo takes several steps to distance himself from Honeycutt, staring in shock. He knew that he worked here, knew he was involved, but... is what she saying true? Did he do things to Mikey??
Honeycutt flinches when he feels Leo move away. He glances back at him, trying to study his expression. Leo figures he must look terrified, because when the old man sees him, he looks remorseful, guilty, and hurt.
"I... I never wanted to... I didn't know what they were..."
Abigail laughs haughtily, tears in her eyes as her hands shake with pure burning rage.
"You didn't know?!" she sneers. "You were the one building the mechs, the training simulators, the ice gun, the extra-strength cattle prods and tasers, the robots -- you built us killing machines, and you DIDN'T KNOW?!"
Honeycutt trembles, shrinking under her accusations.
"And then you have the audacity to switch sides?! Turn Benedict Arnold on us and sell out your associates and friends?!" she screams, bringing the tricked-out laser gun closer to her face and pointing it at the two of them. "You... you traitor. I trusted you. Believe it or not, I trusted you. More than Chaplin, more than Timothy. I always pegged you as the level-headed one, the one person here I could count on not to lose his mind --"
"That's what I'm trying to say!" Honeycutt cries out, throwing his hands in the air. "I joined the EPF because I had a dream! Like you! Probably like most of the people who got sucked into the corporation! But it's not a corporation, it's a #%?!&@$ CULT! It's an insane asylum where the patients are running the show and the only people who have any real thoughts left are the ones in a cage!! Do you have any idea what my existence was like after Chaplin got here?! I was a prisoner loooong before he locked me in my room! And yes, I did what I was told -- because I saw what happened to people who stepped out of line! You know exactly what I'm talking about!! Remember that one guard who assaulted Mikey with the taser?! Do you know, do you remember what happened to him?!"
"Yes I do," Dr. Finn snarls. "His brain is in a jar in my lab."
Honeycutt goes pale.
"Oh. Well, last I heard, he had been mutated and caged... um, but it still proves my point! Anyone who goes against Chaplin or the TCRI --"
"That's different!" Abigail Finn defends. "He attacked the subject and almost damaged the brain --"
"And that justifies experimentation and execution?!" Honeycutt shouts back. "Chaplin is not the law, he's neither judge nor jury! He has no right to do the things he's been doing!! Can't you see how insane this is?!"
Honeycutt sighs and lowers his arms, hanging his head.
"Please... Abigail... You have to see this for what it is. I never wanted to betray anyone, but this has gone on long enough. People are getting hurt. I just... I wanted to leave."
Honeycutt slowly looks back up at her. Her hands shake softly, her eyes burn red with tears. She grits her teeth and grips the gun tighter.
"...Why do you think I came up here?" she growls. "I came to get you out."
Honeycutt's eyes go wide.
"Wait, what? Really? Then what are we even doing here; put the gun down and let's get --"
"NO," Abigail Finn growls, readjusting her stance. "Not yet."
Leo suddenly realizes that the gun isn't pointed at Prof. Honeycutt. It was never pointed at the professor. It was pointed at him.
Leo's hands slowly raise up, and he takes another step back. Dr. Finn takes one step forward.
"Abigail, what are you..?" Honeycutt asks, head bouncing back and forth as he looks between the two of them. "Abby... Abigail, s-stop!"
"You're coming with me, Honeycutt," she growls low. "We're getting out of here. But him?" Her face contorts into a snarl. "He's not going anywhere."
"You're not actually gonna shoot me, are you?" Leo laughs nervously. "You wouldn't -- I'm unarmed!"
"But we both know that you're still a living weapon," Abigail sneers. "Just like Chaplin always said about your brother..."
"Abby, stop! Please! What would you have to gain from this?!" Honeycutt pleads.
"I have everything to lose," she says, voice cracking as she steps closer. "Those turtles will destroy everything I've ever worked for. I'm not about to lose my life's work over a few sewer monsters!"
She points the gun straight at Leo, staring him point-blank in the face. He knows he can't escape, not with the condition he's in. There's no way out of here. Abigail's finger traces over the trigger...
"Just stay out of my way..."
Honeycutt steps in between the two.
"No."
Abigail's brow furrows as she glares at her former coworker.
"Zayton? What are you... get out of my way! This doesn't concern you --"
"Yes it does," Honeycutt says defiantly. "You can't hurt him."
"Watch me."
"No," he says again, guarding Leo.
Leo, who happens to find this whole scenario ironic. Shouldn't he be the one guarding Honeycutt?? But Here he is, watching in fear as a frail old man protects his life from this nutty lady.
"No, I won't move. I'm done being afraid, I'm done pretending like my absence of a choice isn't a choice in and of itself. I've been hiding for too long, letting you get away with everything. No more. I'm taking a stand for once in my life. I can't let you do this, Abby."
"Stay out of this," she seethes, gripping the magazine and handle of the blaster with all her might.
Honeycutt shakes his head.
"I'm done staying out of it."
Bang!
Leo instinctively ducks as soon as he hears the blast, before looking up in shock as the old man defending him doubles over in pain, gripping his chest as Abigail Finn panics and runs away in terror.
"What... no... No! No, no, no!" Leo screams, grabbing the old man by the shoulders and trying desperately to help him. "S-stay with me, okay?! Stay, stay here, I-I'll..."
Honeycutt gasps and gags, choking on his own blood. There's a small but deep hole where a lung is located. Leo guesses that Dr. Finn meant to shoot through the doctor and hit him... but it doesn't even matter now; Leo has to act fast. His hands are already stained red as he attempts to apply pressure to the wound...
Honeycutt grips Leo's fingers with his own, pulling him close as he gasps and fights for air.
"P-please... there's not much time," he wheezes hoarsely. "You... you n-need to get out of h-here. F-find Bishop, g-g-get the... the proof... get it out, s-so n-nothing will ha-happen t-to... to your.... y-your brother... I-I'm sorry for the p-part I played in... in it all..... but... h-hopef-fully this m-makes up for... for everything...... g..go, now......"
"No, I'm not leaving you here!" Leo growls, gritting his teeth. "I'm saving you, I'm getting you out of this mess!"
"I'm already dead," Honeycutt chuckles, before choking and hacking up blood. "I'm lost, kid... just... just go, qu-quick..."
"NO, there's gotta be someway I can save you!"
Leo glances around the room frantically, searching for something, anything he can use --
His eyes fall on the robot laying on the floor by his side. SAL.
"...You said you were trying to put consciousness into a robot, right?" Leo tries, tears streaking down his face in desperation as he runs out of options. "How??"
"The... the port..." Honeycutt manages, his voice fading as he struggles to keep his eyes open. "The... there's a cable... o-on the t...table..... blue ssssstripes..."
Leo sets him down carefully and grabs the large blue cord from the table. The end of said cable has several metal prongs connected inside of it, matching a port opening. Leo finally sticks it in after three tries, then turns to the doctor.
"O-okay, what now?!" he begs. "What do I do?!"
"The... the hel.... th'helmet..." Honeycutt exhales, his finger weakly lifting, falling, and shaking as he attempts to point to a corner cabinet.
Leo jumps into action, practically pouncing on the cabinet and shoveling supplies out as he frantically searches for the device. He eventually finds what looks like a metal bike helmet, complete with blinky lights and switches.
"Okay, okay, I think I've got it, now what?"
Honeycutt doesn't respond. Leo whirls around to look at him. His chest is starting to fall.
"No... No! No, not yet! Not when I can -- NO!"
Leo moves. Fast, desperate, swift, and with very little thinking involved.
"Really wish Donnie was here!" he gripes as he snatches the cable from the desk and shoves it into the helmet. A three-pronged needle sticks out from the other side where the porthole would be. Leo grimaces as he thinks of the pain that will follow. "Sorry, doc, but this is probably gonna sting..."
Leo drops to his knees by the professor and drives the helmet onto his head. The needles click into the nape of the neck. The lights flash, and the old man suddenly screams, his body convulsing on the ground as the device does its work.
Leo has to force himself to keep from covering his mouth at the screams; his hands are still bloody and he doesn't want to get the Professor's blood anywhere it shouldn't be. The professor shrieks in pain as the cable brightens up and blue light flows from the helmet to the little robot laying on the floor beside them. His body jerks, back and forth, the robot begins to tremble and jerk as well. A garbled, staticy shriek starts to emanate from the speakers where its mouth would be.
Suddenly, both bodies freeze and fall limp. The professor goes silent, his skin pale and shirt soaked with blood. His chest falls, his breathing ceases.
He's dead.
"...D-doc?" Leo whimpers. "Hello? Did... did it work? Please, tell me I didn't just --"
Leo hears groaning. It's robotic, staticy, almost like autotune. It slowly starts to refocus, becoming clearer and easier to understand. It sounds like... like...
"...Professor?" Leo whispers, hovering over the metal body with baited breath.
The robot -- SAL -- stirs, before slowly sitting up and placing a mechanical hand to its head.
"ᴜɢʜʜ… ᴡᴇʟʟ, ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴡᴀꜱ ᴀɴ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴘᴇᴀᴛ."
Leo reels backwards from the robot half his size, as it slowly starts to stand.
"ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴅɪᴅ… ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴅɪᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴊᴜꜱᴛ ᴅᴏ…?" it asks, in Honeycutt's voice. "ᴡʜʏ ɪꜱ ᴇᴠᴇʀʏᴛʜɪɴɢ ꜱᴏ ᴍᴜᴄʜ ᴛᴀʟʟᴇʀ? ᴀɴᴅ ᴡʜʏ ᴅᴏ ɪ --"
The robot Honeycutt halts, staring down at the new body it he has acquired.
"ᴏʜ. ᴏʜ. ᴏʜʜʜʜ -- ᴏʜ ᴍʏ ɢᴏᴅ, ᴡʜᴀᴛ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ʏᴏᴜ ᴅᴏɴᴇ?! ɪ -- ɪ --"
"You're welcome?" Leo tries, slowly getting off the floor and to his feet as he watches the Professor come to terms with his new form. "If that really is you... Right? Doc?"
"ɪᴛ… ɪᴛ'ꜱ ᴍᴇ, ɪ… ᴏᴏᴏᴏᴏᴏʜ ᴅᴇᴀʀ, ᴛʜɪꜱ ɪꜱ ɢᴏɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ᴛᴀᴋᴇ ꜱᴏᴍᴇ ɢᴇᴛᴛɪɴɢ ᴜꜱᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ…"
"Can you walk?" Leo asks nervously.
"ɪ ʙᴇʟɪᴇᴠᴇ ꜱᴏ," he replies slowly. "ɪ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ᴛʜᴇʀᴇ'ꜱ ᴀ ᴜꜱᴇʀ ᴍᴀɴᴜᴀʟ ᴅᴏᴡɴʟᴏᴀᴅᴇᴅ ɪɴ ʜᴇʀᴇ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴡʜᴇʀᴇ…"
"Well, read it on the way, okay?" Leo sighs with relief, taking the robot's hand and dragging him away. "We got to GO."
