    Summary

    The sublevel the live specimens are kept on requires security screening conducted by a pair of steely-eyed armed guards and one final ID scan at the door beyond them. There’s a bit of a hiccup with Leon’s badge not reading properly on the scanner, but you were there when it was printed, and you’ve worked at the EPF long enough that when you vouch for him, the guards let it slide.

    He really wouldn’t have made it this far if he didn’t belong here, after all.

    Summary

    The presence was back. Leo didn’t dare move his head far enough to meet the gaze head on, afraid it would vanish if he stared at them directly, but watched with his peripherals. Haloed by stars, Lou Jitsu was crouched beside him, nodding encouragingly.

    Summary

    “Leo? What the hell?”

    Fuuu-uuuuuck. Leo shifts a throbbing, spasming hand to try and cover his face, save any scrap of dignity he can. The smile he ends up grabbing is slippery, like an eel. Keeps trying to squirm off his face as the waves of tremors roll in.

    “Hahaheyyy, ‘Tello, I’m j-just…”

    And he can’t even think of anything.

    “I think I’m d-dying,” Leo hears himself say, and, well! That’s pretty much the gist of it! Donnie’s got the SparkNotes, now. He cuts off the reedy whimper of pain before it can leave his throat, shuts his eyes against the shame, and against the horrible thing Donnie’s expression does for a split-second.


    (Leo reckons with the consequences of his actions. Donnie gets to say "I told you so.")

    Summary

    Leo still has no idea what’s going on here, but if they’re not going to hurt him then there’s absolutely nothing to stop him from screwing with these assholes. He can do ‘recalcitrant and obnoxious’ with the best of them, as any member of his family could tell you. At length. He’s not going to cooperate at all.

    He leans against the wall and smirks up at the camera with his third-smarmiest smirk. “Aw, do I get a cookie if I help you with your widdle tests?”

    “No.” The door on the other side of the room opens. “You get a tomato if you do this maze.”

    “Ooh, tomato maze,” Leo says, and walks through the door immediately.

    Summary

    The whole day, Leo'd been having trouble getting his sword to work. Which, whatever, not the end of the world. They'd gone their whole lives up til now without magic powers, and Donnie didn't have any either. It was funny to tease Leo about his tiny portals, but at the end of the day, if he couldn't get ‘em working properly, it’d be fine.

    But he's starting to think that maybe Leo had seen it differently.
