[Leo’s glad they did, too; he hates being mad at his brothers anytime, or them being mad at him, but on Christmas? That would have been criminal.

But he’s been trying to be good and give Donnie more space since their argument. Not in a distant way, but just so he isn’t hovering. He can’t help worrying but he doesn’t have to make it Donnie’s problem.

Which is how he missed out on Donnie scoping out abandoned chop shops for his Christmas scavenger hunt. Not that Leo worried much about that particular activity.]


I love it. Seriously.

[Leo hugs tight, too - not just for the gift. It’s Christmas! And he’s not going to say it for the sake of his reputation, but he’s happy they’re together.]

Merry Christmas! And, oh-

[He ends the hug so he can jog back to his gift and bring it over. The wrapping job is a bit messy and haphazard, and there’s an envelope taped to the top, but Leo has never been one for presentation when it comes to these things.]

This is yours!

[Inside the box is a bomber jacket that Leo caught Donnie waffling over during one of their more recent shopping trips. It was a little pricey, but Leo made it work (he maybe dipped in for a little extra on one of his Society jobs before he officially returned to the Alliance - no one has to know!). It’s a deep plum color with satiny lining, and there’s room for patches - Leo took the opportunity to go ahead and add one, the dark outline of a rocket affixed to one of the sleeves.

As for the card, it’s simple on its own (Season’s Greetings, with to D from Leo scribbled on the inside), but what’s in it is more interesting.

1. A coupon for a Hawaiian pizza. Leo is still Leo and always has to slip a joke gift in somewhere.

2. A brand new library card, with Donatello written across the front.]
