[ cw: nightmares / trauma / ]
Post-invasion, Mikey sneaks into Leo’s room and when asked by Leo what the problem was, Mikey just smiles and says since he’s awake and knew Leo would be too, he didn’t want either of them alone. Leo laughs and lets Mikey stick around, both of them clumped together on Leo’s bed, watching grainy compilations of old Lou Jitsu commercials on Leo’s phone.
Technically, Mikey didn’t lie. He just didn’t explain everything that led him to Leo’s room. He didn’t explain the nightmare of his arms burning up too bright, too fast, destroyed before Raph and Donnie have a chance to help. He didn’t explain how he woke up with a wail caught in his throat, phantom pain in his arms and chest alike chasing away any semblance of exhaustion. He didn’t explain how his mind made sure he knew, vividly, that if one thing went wrong with his portal, then he would have never seen Leo again.
He didn’t explain, and he didn’t have to. Leo knows his brothers better than he knows himself, and Mikey has always been easy to read. So it’s no trouble to let Mikey know that he’s still with them, that Leo is here and alive with everyone else. And when Mikey finally regains his exhaustion and falls asleep leaning against Leo, Leo simply maneuvers him into a more comfortable position and stays by his side.
He doesn’t move, doesn’t go to sleep - not that he could, anyway. He just mindlessly scrolls on his phone, the soft snores of his little brother filling the room. He stays in place, awake, because he wants to be sure that when Mikey wakes up again it’s to the immediate sight that Leo is alive and well and home.
And, if Leo’s bring honest, that’s a reminder not just for Mikey’s sake.

What is every ship you like from Octonauts?
I like Kwazini, Twashi, Kwaso, Kwazicles, Peso x Barnacles x Kwazii, and SheliKwaz
ok *cracks knuckles* i usually don’t enjoy going into detail about my ship preferences so. here are my favourite ships. my more minor ship takes will stay in tags!be nice 2 me /hj
- kwazini. been their number one fan since day one and i have THE PROOF!!! (i’m not normal)
- “twazii” except i don’t enjoy that ship name and i ship them in a non-romantic context SO I CALL THEM CARROTPIE <3 the qpps ever. i kinda love them and kwazini to an equal extent
- shellikwaz my beloved…i used to be more into it in my pre/early kwazini days back in 2020/2021! i’m not as passionate about them anymore but they still mean a lot to me n i think they’re neat <3 by proxy i think shellikwazini is a fun concept too

special interests combing together is fun but so dangerous and time consuming
like i could write a whole essay on why i think will solace’s favorite kpop group would be seventeen (but i firmly believe he would listen to like everyone, but that svt hold a special place in his heart)

I had a dream last night where they interviewed Scott Bakula for a documentary about Naruto because his name sounded too close to Sasuke(?????) and there was a mix up except it was also a movie with Paul Dano in it and this was the framed poster for the film in my friend’s house and it’s been haunting me all day I had to draw it
