The Bunker of "Safety"
[You find yourself in a large stone room. It has enough room to stand up, even for the tallest, and plenty of space to walk around. Likely Donnie absolutely exploded the insides of this rocky area to make this much space. The walls and corners are cut cleanly thanks to his mystic tools.]
[In the ceiling, recessed with some metal holders are crystals that shine with a warm light. A magic sunlamp.]
[There are a few inches of water on the floor, and probably most impressively is he's managed to make it so the water cycles through to the ceiling to make a light waterfall across all the walls. There are some polished boulders that provide some dry spots in the room.]
[But do make it very hard to try and write or carve things onto any surface in the room.]
[There is also a door with no handle on this side. It's half slid into the stone and has a metal cover, though any investigation will reveal the door is very thick, so probably stone makes up its center.]
[When people being dropped off]
[They can tell Donnie is coming back because the wall with the door is suddenly covered in a purple pink wall that will be shoving them across the room to push them away from the door. Then he'll open the door and drop off the person he's caught, or the food for people.]
[Each time the wall comes up, almost everytime, the walls seem to be getting...pinker.]
[Just for you guys: The Things Donnie is collecting from his connections for all this nonsense]
-Space Titanium to make Fabrications stronger from Korone
-His strength Plus Korone's strength when she's nearby until she bites someone else.
-Glyphs from Hunter
-Ninpo is always a thing
-Kraang things from Danger Memories
-Sedatives, so many sedatives
-Randy's orbment which comes with tech magic like FIRE, strength buffs under conditions, up his crit range for harder hits, makes him faster.
-Crow's guns

This conversational point recount is enough to get a very "ehhh" sound from him. ]
Which he apparently went on ahead and set up for. Right. [ So maybe it's been a few days, give or take, depending on if Donnie's bothered with sleeping. He probably hasn't. It sounds kinda-- superfocused. Creepy. 'Give up his happiness and ours.'
Cool thing to do to Hunter, who grew up all locked away and not allowed to really be with people and getting manipulated and stuff. ]
I'm gonna label this one as snake god intervention for now, but we can't rule out that we're gonna need to pin him down for an exorcism.
no subject
[ Like! the walls! The sturdiness of it! The WATER everywhere?? Not that Hunter can make glyphs like this anyway, but he definitely can't do it with the water everywhere.
He huddles down a little bit. At least THAT part is different from Belos, after all. Belos completely underestimated him - was entirely too confident in his ability to control and/or murder Hunter. ]
Do ... do you think Belos got to him too? Like with Leo?
[ Belos Stop Possessing Turtles Challenge 2023. ]
no subject
[ Love a fancy water and heat lamp spot. When it's optional, he's all in favor of just basking under a nice hot lamp as part of a turtlepile.
The moral indignity of this bunker really takes away from that.
Hunter asks a valid question. One Raph hadn't mathed out all the way. ]
... maybe? I feel like at least Leo would've had to notice before now if it was that bad. He usually has a pretty good read. But we gotta keep it in mind just in case. 'cause this definitely ain't how Donnie do when he's got his head on straight.
no subject
[ He does what he can to nudge Raph with his lil birdie head. It's mostly blocked by the bars, though. Only a little tuft of feathers peeks through. ]
A couple people did act strange after the fire. Like - even Viktor. But he had this crown thing ...
no subject
Right. The crowns and thorns and stuff. [ The like. Heart cages. And stuff. He feels like it's been an especially wild time since the button game point in the timeline. ] Maybe there's a part two? Or a mystic poison or something?
no subject
Hunter flops a bit as he thinks. ]
Maybe… yeah. I did see a lot of glowing lights in the forest after it burned? Maybe they infected him somehow.
no subject
[ We are now doing a little pacing in the enclosure. Something slow and steady, help shake off the drug brains. ]
We're gonna figure this out, Hunter. Whatever this is, we can all beat it together. And hopefully 'all' includes someone who can actually bust you outta birdcage jail.
no subject
That's ... actually a really good argument. Maybe there's just a plant out there that makes you super paranoid?
no subject
I may not be the brains guy, but I always got arguments. It's gotta be something like that. Weird regrowin' forest stuff. Cult stuff. Something. Donnie wouldn't just do this.
no subject
… is it possible he still has a piece of the Kraang in his head?
no subject
Raph is gonna. Stop pacing.
Things he was not expecting to hear at all: achieved. ]
Hunter, why are you askin' that?
[ Who knows what about what Donnie went through is not an issue. If someone got a weird front row memory cactus thing or Donnie told them himself, that's a separate thing.
Why it would be relevant to this is a point of high horror concern. ]
no subject
I know he had the Kraang in his mind for a little while. With the ship. And - he’s been doing weird things that look like Kraang… stuff. Like tentacle constructs.
[ pause for breath. ]
His ninpo felt kinda pink too.
no subject
I... I don't know.
[ Raph wants to have an answer. He always wants to have an answer. Not in the Donnie way of having a big sponge brain or whatever, just in the way where he's the big brother and he takes care of his family. ]
It shouldn't be in his ninpo, it- that's how you burn 'em out.
[ From his experience? Head empty, no thoughts, only terror. He needs to talk to his brother, he needs to see him, he needs to help him and he's stuck in this weird zoo exhibit thing instead. ]
no subject
[ Like. REALLY wrong. Even moreso than the behavior itself. Hunter lets out a soft, miserable lil chirp. ]
no subject
He is doing his due diligence to not let all his overprotective big brother slash substitute parent feelings do a spiral. Because spirals! Do not make solutions! ]
We'll fix this. We're gonna help him and we're gonna get him back to normal. Even if we gotta bust out of Donnie jail a hundred times and investigate every plant or glowy light or dumb-dumb snake god out there! And whatever it is that did this to our family, we're gonna pulverize.
And then we're gonna tell Donnie we love him a hundred times 'cause he's probably gonna feel bad anyway!
no subject
You're - you're right. He IS gonna feel super bad, and it's NOT gonna be his fault! Even if it is him and not some weird effect, it's still not his fault.
no subject
Yeah. Yeah, exactly! We're Hamatos, little brother! That means our hearts are our STRONGEST muscles. No guilt brain is gonna step to us and get away with it.
no subject
Right! Exactly!
So - how do we do that from here!
1/2
no subject
[ Okay. Okay. Controlled breath. Using Hunter looking so happy about being little brother for strength.
One thing at a time. ]
First, we're gonna scope our surroundings and see if we're stuck-stuck or if I can smash us out.
no subject
It's mostly metal ... and water on the floor, probably so that I can't cast glyphs. I got in through a door, though.
no subject
[ Water on the floor, water running down the walls, super polished rocks. And Hunter is still in a cage instead of being allowed to have free run.
What, is Donnie just gonna leave him in there forever? That's crazy.
Raph gets up to a wall and thumps a fist against it a couple times. ]
Raph's got a natural advantage against doors. We'll see if he had time to account for that on short notice.
[ he did RIP raph ]
