Summary
Sleeping was better than being awake, which was something he never thought he’d believe. He used to guzzle coffee like it was water, strengthening it with espresso shots so he could work well into the wee hours of morning and function throughout the rest of the day like a normal person while cutting sleep out entirely. Granted, his brothers intervened pretty quickly once they realized how frequently he’d been doing it and limited his caffeine intake (something he’d curse them about till the end of his days), but it was something he used to want to do.
Most days, now, he’d kill to never wake up again.
Or one time Leo was there for Donnie before the genius's self-destructive habits became permanent...
His teeth ached from how often he’d been lying through them, but anything was better than sitting through seemingly endless family meetings where everyone attempted to fix what they couldn’t.
...and one time Donnie returned the favor.

Summary
“You alright?”
Mikey’s looking at him. His eyes are searching, scanning him up and down, like a watchdog. Donnie’s in the middle of getting to his feet to work, and he can’t possibly open up to him. It’s stupid. Irrational. Deplorable.
Donnie offers back a pathetic grin. “I’m fine.” The words are quick, seamless. Mikey smiles something bright at him, the answer giving no one anything to think about, nothing to consider. Mikey is busy, busy like Donnie is, and he can’t bring himself to throw another thing onto the youngest brother.
He feels his shell pounding. Flesh ticking like clockwork. There’s no pain, not yet, just brass bright growing stains in his flawless techwear. No one notices.
Good. He’s got a lot of work to do.
///
Or, in which Donnie is a worker first and a person second.
(Or, in which Donnie convinces himself he is nothing more than a robot. He’ll work through the pain, work through the slashes on his shell, work through the migraines. His brothers, however, won’t stand for that…
…If they catch onto it, that is.)

Summary
Donnie can barely remember the last time the two of them had really talked.
…Never mind, yes, he can. Eugh.
His heartbeat thuds, dum-dum, dum-dum, in his ears.
Donnie says, “I invoke the Prisoner’s Dilemma Accords.”
Leo, who has graduated to actual tricks during his monologue, sends his cards to his left hand, a good two feet below his right, and claps them to a halt. As he squares the deck, his golden eyes dart up to meet Donnie’s, dagger-sharp.
*
In the aftermath of Mind Meld, Donnie and Leo revive a childhood tradition and try (not) to have a vulnerable conversation.AKA: It’s time to swap secrets with your twin. Is the gun really necessary?
