Noise

It starts as just irritation. A metaphorical crawling under your skin. Things are too noisy, too bright, there is too much happening all the time and you can't take it all in-

Then silence it, make it yours, make it you, take control and destroy what will not submit

It sounds so inviting, a freedom from the noise, but its wrong, its wrong, its wrong and the noise is getting louder, mechanical and foreboding as it sees you, it knows you are there, and it wants to make you apart of it.

For a moment, there is quiet.

You breathe.

And fall through water.

[ Hmmm. Hes stashing the Krang portal and walking over to the blue box and knocking back. ]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

[Knockety-knockety knock knock.]

[ Crow used the power of feelings before, but maybe he can try just

punching the box open. ]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

[He can, in fact, just punch the box.]

[And in a burst of blue electricity, there appears a blue light construct Leo]

Hey there. Thanks for the release, I was getting a real crink in my neck.

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Violence is so much better than feelings.]

'Course, anytime. What's up?

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

Oh, you know. Dontron's gone off the deep end. Hyperfocusing to an extreme degree. Putting blinders on anything else. [He glances over at working Donnie, eyeing the chain.] Typical Donnie getting demon possessed things.

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow raises an eyebrow. ]

Does he get possessed often?

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

Eh, depends on your perspective, but this is a particularly bad instance. He's not even doing jazz hands, this one loves to put on a show normally.

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow considers. ]

I kinda figured "chaining himself to a project until he finishes" was his usual MO. But.... I got some spare time to make a guy stop hyperfocusing.

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

Good to check, but considering the project he's working on... [And 'oof' kind of face.]

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow grimaces. ]

That bad, huh?

[ WELP. TIME TO GO LOOK AT WHAT DONNIE IS DOING. ]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

Eugh boy. [He's just saying.]

[SURE IS]

[THE BUNKER]

[AND IDEAS TO MAKE IT BETTER]

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ So the first thing Crow is doing is snatching those up. Every last bunker plan.

Actually.

Can he put those in his crafting materials inventory?? DON'T WANNA WASTE SCRAP PAPER. ]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

[He can totally put the scrap paper in the inventory. Does he go for the tablets with plans too?]

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Absolutely yes, he knows better. ]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

[A good idea. For his goals.]

[Donnie is less okay with that.]

Wha-CROW! Give those backs! [He's on his feet.]

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

Not a chance!

[ He's pulling his double saber off his back and attacking the chain in an attempt to break it.]

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

Crow! [He's moving to tackle into Crow, but man, that just makes the chain TAUT]

[And I assume Crow is physically strong enough to cut through a chain, SO THERE YOU GO, turtle is gonna do a tackle and isn't chained up now.]

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ HE IS IN FACT STRONG ENOUGH, and tackled now! Give Crow credit though, he keeps his grip on his saber and manages not to accidentally cut Donnie with it.]

Donnie! Work on something cooler!

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

[CROW IS]

[At risk of getting pulled into a headlock and noogie.]

I work on plenty of cool things and I can do that after you give me my stuff back!

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

Not a chance! You're just gonna work on the bunker again!

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

I-

[There is a pause in the noogieing.]

[Frowning.]

I'm kind of bored of it, actually.

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ GOOD he does not like noogies!

Crow pauses. ]

Tell you what. I'll give you back the tablets.

If.

If you promise not to work on the bunker anymore. And seriously promise me, none of this "I won't" and then stabbing me in the back and doing it anyway. Because I promise you, I'll never trust you again if you pull that shit on me.

Re: The Lab

[othellovonryan]

I would never stoop so low as needing to stab someone in the back.

He's confidence so take that with a grain of salt!

Re: The Lab

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow glances at Leo. ]

So then, whaddaya say? Do I let him have 'em back?
