Summary
“Leo? What the hell?”
Fuuu-uuuuuck. Leo shifts a throbbing, spasming hand to try and cover his face, save any scrap of dignity he can. The smile he ends up grabbing is slippery, like an eel. Keeps trying to squirm off his face as the waves of tremors roll in.
“Hahaheyyy, ‘Tello, I’m j-just…”
And he can’t even think of anything.
“I think I’m d-dying,” Leo hears himself say, and, well! That’s pretty much the gist of it! Donnie’s got the SparkNotes, now. He cuts off the reedy whimper of pain before it can leave his throat, shuts his eyes against the shame, and against the horrible thing Donnie’s expression does for a split-second.
(Leo reckons with the consequences of his actions. Donnie gets to say "I told you so.")

Summary
“…’Nardo?” Donnie murmurs, blurry, and there’s a weak and trembling grip on Leo’s good arm. Leo’s throat closes to nearly a pinhole. Something’s choking him. A surge of feeling, half-relief half-Something-Else (that’s going in a little box in the back freaking corner of his brain, thanks, thanks!)
He puts on a grin.
“At your service, Donnie Dee,” Leo quips. “What’cha need? More water?” Impulsively, he checks Donnie’s temperature again, with the shaking hand that isn’t currently being held captive. The fever hasn’t changed. Of course it hasn’t. Duh, Leo, it’s been like thirty seconds.
Donnie’s eyebrows furrow. The left one is smudged. Leo runs a thumb across it and briefly wonders if there’s some Sharpie equivalent in the wilderness.
(Leo's portals go haywire, and Donnie pays the price. Leo's doing his best to fix it.)
