It's Okay To Be Different | TMNT Donnie X OC Love Story

destress with more stress

"Okay, so we almost died." Mikey put his hands together, then ruffled Maya's short hair. "But now we have some free time! Let's play a game or something!"

"Like hide and seek?" Iris asked, flexing their fingers to bring back feeling.

"The ship is kind of...naked, if that makes sense." Maya scrunched her still cold nose. "You can't really hide anywhere."

"I suppose that makes sense."

"What about truth or dare?" Suggested Leonardo.

"Oh god no..." Donnie mumbled to himself.

"I'm down." Raziel released his grip from the rock pendant.

"Just don't make me do anything weird." Jophiel grimaced.

The teens sat around in the lounging area, anxious for their fate of either truth or dare.

"I saw this in a horror movie once!" Maya exclaimed, her faint New Yorker accent of the pronunciation of horror appearing. "It was called...truth or dare."

"Please don't compare this to a horror movie. I'm already on edge."

"But I haven't even hit you yet, Donnie! There's nothing to worry about." Maya stuck her tongue out.

"I'll go first." Leo announced. He looked around to his friends. "Mikey! Tell everyone about your collection!"

"What? No! I'd rather take a dare." The orange turtle was met with expectant eyes. "Aw you just want me to embarrass myself in front of Maya, don't you?" Mikey put his face in his hands, his face blushing. "I used to...collect human underwear. And sometimes wear it. GAH!"

Casey and April were doubled over in laughter. Maya bit back a giggle of her own. Iris cocked their head, somewhat confused. I didn't learn about this from Fugitoid...

"Are you gonna break up with me now?" Mikey peeked out from his three fingers, tears in his eyes.

Maya gasped. "No! Why would I?" Maya gave Leo a dirty look and mouthed 'I'll kill you' at him. "I'd never do that!"

Mikey bounced back easily. "Yay! Okay...I dare Iris to lick their elbow!"

Iris looked at their elbow curiously and put it to their face, pressing their tongue against the skin easily. "I guess it's my turn. I dare April to punch herself in the face." They were met with terrified looks. "Kidding! I dare her to put her hair down for the rest of the day."

"Well I just had a heart attack." April removed her headband and hair tie, shaking her hair to calm it down. "That wasn't so bad. Casey. Truth or dare?"

"Uh truth. I don't trust you."

"Why do you say goongala all the time?"

"Um because it's cool!" Casey huffed haughtily. "Okay who's next?"
