[At the open show of strain, Leo rubs at his side gently, trying to ease him back down a bit. But he chuckles softly against him.]

Right? Like, yeah no question why we were still asleep but I think we'd've gotten an earful if Don saw that.

[heyunderoos]

[He snorts quietly at that, trying to be mindful of his still healing injury. Peter relaxes into the gentle rub.]

We'll just call that cartridge of web fluid lost in action, so we don't have to think about it again. Totally no web shenanigans here.

[neonleon]

Happens all the time. No questions asked.

[Leo is well and fully aware Donnie will listen to this recording at some later date. But can't do anything about it now but put that warning in.

He noses into Peter's hair with a sigh.]

[heyunderoos]

[Peter mentally files away the thought of finding more supplies to make up for the webbing. For now, he's just content against Leo. His favorite person. He's loose and languid as the ache from the bullet wound fades to something manageable.]

For now, it's just you and me.

[neonleon]

[He hums into those soft curls. Not the fiftieth or last time he'd wish he had hair again.]

Sounds perfect. Just need some candles and server pouring us mimosas and we have a perfect date morning.

[Says local turtle who never had one. Shake that the face man never got a chance to get drunk before the Krang decided to destroy all good things.]

[heyunderoos]

[Peter manages to keep himself from laughing again, but it comes out in an amused whoosh of breath.]

You think either of us would feel alcohol? I always wondered. [Both of them were a little too well-behaved to drink under aged.]

[neonleon]

Hmm... Now there's a thought I'd rather not have Donnie try to prove and take away the fun.

[He rests his chin on Peter's head softly, thinking.] I think we'd probably have to drink a lot of it really fast to try and get ahead of the metabolism. And we'd probably feel it for... Iunno, a minute? Minute and a half? And then we'd taste it all over again.

[heyunderoos]

[Peter just coaxes his fingers absently along his husband's arm, drifting down to his side, well, as much of it as he can reach.]

So, in Vegas, we'd have to get a lot of shots. Follow it up with like something that actually tastes good but is potent...?

That or we just get a lot of those fancy cocktails. I think those really pack a punch and are good tasting?

[neonleon]

I'd say only if it's the same flavor the whole way. Imagine a bunch of different flavors back to back in seconds, eugh.

[But Leo closes his eyes enjoying this moment.]

I think hard liquor and then the cocktails.

[heyunderoos]

Depends on how drunk we get for that full minute, I mean. Then reality just kinda comes crashing back down. Either way, I think we have a plan.

[Peter muses with a smile.] I mean... back in high school Ned and I kind of looked up alcohols you're supposed to start with, but, I felt too awkward watching the video since it was meant for people way older than we were. Ned talked about when we went on that summer trip we could maybe drink, but that felt too dishonest.

[neonleon]

Ugh, I knew there was probably a guide out there somewhere.

[But there was Jupiter Jim stuff to look up that was more important.]

Why oh why do we have to be such good law abiding youngsters when we could've experimented things for science?

[heyunderoos]

There were a lot of them, back when we googled it. [Not a real possibility anymore, but Peter side steps saying as much.] It felt really overwhelming.

[Peter presses a brief kiss against his husband's shoulder.] I wasn't too law abiding, jumping around in a lycra and spandex suit to stop crime was very illegal. I think you liked that criminal behavior I was up to.

[neonleon]

You were stopping crime, I think that counts you as law abiding by intent.

I did like what you were up to though. So glad you kept the suit.

[heyunderoos]

If we go by the accords, no, extremely illegal. I was a horrible criminal all along. [Another kiss for Leo's shoulder, and then at the edge of his plastron.]

You just like gazing at my ass when I put the suit on. [Its a fond tease if anything.]

[neonleon]

Heh. The worst.

[Leo gives Peter's waist a gentle squeeze, wary of the wound still.]

Yeah? So what if I do? It's a good view.

[heyunderoos]

Can you believe, you married a hardened criminal? [And another kiss to Leo's shoulder, because Peter just wants his husband to get as much affection as he deserves.

The squeeze just makes him smile.]

Pretty sure only you think that, but thank you. Thank you for gazing.

[neonleon]

Oh, I can promise you, I am not the only one. Guarantee by this time tomorrow, this room is gonna be full of get well cards and gifts for you from all your secret admirers.

[heyunderoos]

[That knocks another laugh out of Peter. A hard enough one he winces, burying his face against Leo's shoulder with a pained exhale.

He pushes through it, just trying to not ruin the moment. Thinking about his husband at least makes him happy. Enough to wax a little poetically on him.] Still pretty sure you're the one with admirers, they can't keep their eyes off of you.

Handsome face, beautiful dark eyes, strong hands, perfect voice- [He leans into Leo a little more.]

[neonleon]

[Peter leaning more into him, Leo smiles and gently nudges the tray out of the way so he can wrap both arms around him.]

Sorry to say, babe, but I'm an acquired taste. Very few around here go for turtle. You and that one lizard youkai that's like eight hundred years old.

[heyunderoos]

Psh. I know people are attracted to you. Its not an acquired taste. [Peter would prefer to just sit completely in Leo's lap and squish into him, but that's for later. Being held like this at least helps him feel better.]

If they aren't, they have serious problems. Ones I can't really help them with. [He kisses the underside of his husband's jaw.]

[neonleon]

Oh, agreed. They're missing out.

But with it just being you and old Lizard Gram, I think you have some serious competition.

[heyunderoos]

Not the first senior citizen I've taken in a fight. Probably not the last. [He phrases it just as strangely to make his husband laugh.]

[neonleon]

[And he gets it, honest and rumbling a bit in his chest.]

We'll set up an official fighting ring and everything. Sell tickets.

[heyunderoos]

Set the prices just right, and we'll get everything worth bartering for just because of one fight. [The laugh just makes Peter trill quietly back, just enjoying the feeling of his husband's laugh as much as he does the sound of it.]

[neonleon]

A lot of problems solved.

Buuuut to get you in fighting form, first we gotta make sure you rest and heal up. How're you feeling?
