I wouldn't've gathered from your very carefully crafted espionage. [He holds up the card.] Absolutely hoodwinked me.

[heyunderoos]

[Why, yes he can go redder. Miracles upon miracles. He laughs a little at the response, moving to just pick up the wrapped candy he had been trying to shove under the door up.]

I'm sneaky like that. Absolutely unseen. [He's so bad at this. He thinks distantly of MJ. How he tried so hard and it never went anywhere.] I just... I wanted to do like this seven part plan, but then, Valentine's day like came out of nowhere. I didn't want to miss it, but the plan was like- not really ready yet...

[And he's rambling, he cannot stop himself.]

[neonleon]

Uh huh.

[Peter is clearly the stealthiest. But Leo stands there, crosses his arms watching Peter.]

Rule one of multi-step plans, always account for when they don't work.

[heyunderoos]

Normally, I kind of just jump into problems and see if punching it fixes it-? Or math, math, or punching. [An absolutely normal thing to say. Peter realizes that a beat too late.]

I guess I can raincheck the really big plan, and just... see what kind of date we'd wanna go on?

[neonleon]

[Leo's on board with everything so far. Jump in and punch, very Raph style. Math is Donnie style. Combined together could be interesting. Hyper-precision-

His thoughts derail at that second part though. Looking a little surprised before he masks it.]

A... A date huh?

[heyunderoos]

Yeah, like... a movie and then dinner? [He offers back with a tiny smile.] I don't know what is playing right now, but... we could find out?

[neonleon]

[For all Leo's ego and puffing himself up, he looks... almost nervous but eager.]

Yeah. Yeah, love movies, love dinner. Great idea.

[heyunderoos]

The dinner was technically your idea. [Peter points out, his smile warming up a little more.]

I think, it would be nice though. Just, us in a movie theater in the back maybe? I don't have security detail on me anymore, so we could actually be alone for real.

[neonleon]

Oooooh my god, are they finally leaving you and Dontron alone? FIIIInally. Yeah, that works, perfect.

[heyunderoos]

I guess they realized we weren't going to commit any other crimes, so yeah. [Well, not any obvious crimes. Peter can guess Donnie just does whatever he wants.] Do you wanna do it today or... are you busy?

[neonleon]

['Yet', Leo thinks to himself.]

I am the most free schedule ever. Nothing planned. Not a thought except this now.

[heyunderoos]

[Peter laughs a little at that.] Do we wanna google any the movies playing before we go? Or are we going to just take a chance?

[neonleon]

Take it by chaaaance, have a little fun with lady luck here.

[heyunderoos]

I think I can handle that. If it is bad, it'll at least be kinda funny too. [He's relaxing now, loosening up from his nerves he built up over the past week or so of figuring things out.] Are we just picking a place to eat randomly, or is it pizza take out?

[neonleon]

Pick a place, your choice.

[heyunderoos]

Let's say... some place we can grab burgers and go. So we don't have to stay out too long. It's always crazy with people on Valentine's day. [That feels like a plan. A decent one at that. Peter doesn't want Leo to be feel trapped in the glamour forever. Peter likes Leo as Leo in the first place.]

[neonleon]

Great, we'll do this plan, best plan, making it happen.

[Honestly? He appreciates it. Not that he's not super down to look like his dad as a human, but it's ... weird to think about.]

[heyunderoos]

Should I- change? [He looks down at himself, trying to guess if this is like date material clothing or not.] To be honest, I've never been on a date before.

[neonleon]

Oh lit, me neither. We'll do great, absolute pogchamps.

[He looks Peter over and then shrugs.] No idea, but wear whatever's comfortable.

[heyunderoos]

[Peter snorts a little at use of pogchamps, still just smiling at Leo.]

Okay, maybe... a nicer shirt- I think I have one? [He has to think about it, but shakes his head, just extending the chocolate he pilfered out to Leo.] Right, I- grabbed these for you too.

[neonleon]

What? Seriously?

[No one just?? Gives him things? Usually there's some trick to it, or gimmick. Nothing is ever freely given. Though he guesses the trick here is he goes on a date. Leo take the chocolates almost reverently and just holds them for now.]

Thanks. I, um. I'll- [Wait he should like. Figure something out to give to him. Right? That's how it works right???]

I'll get you something later.

[heyunderoos]

[Peter blinks a little, shaking his head.]

Oh- no, it's- you don't have to. I just wanted to make sure you got candy with the card. I didn't have time to make you candy, but I got these at least.

[neonleon]

Ohmigosh, you were going to MAKE me candy?

[Eat shit Donnie, Leo's winning a game Don didn't even know was being played.]

Thanks. I- Yeah, thank you.

[heyunderoos]

Yeah, hopefully, that's... not weird? Or too much? [How do date, how do romance? The question that leaves everyone guessing.]

Later, maybe in a day or two we could... try to make it together? If you wanna I mean. [He is trying to vaguely set up date two already.]

[neonleon]

[Leo's only got what he's seen in movies and heard from April so it's not like he knows any better.]

Absolutely, let's do that. I've never done that before.
