[There's a small exhalation as Leo starts to talk. It sounds like he's been thinking about this for quite a while.]

I gotta admit... I don't know much about this place, but it sounds like a lot of you want to go and save this Freyr guy. I don't know that much about him other than his name and that he used to be a God, but.... I want to save him too. But if we're going to be travelling together, then I guess I gotta keep a few less secrets huh? Some of you have heard my voice already, but only a few of you have actually seen me in person. Well, there's a pretty good reason for that...

[With a sigh, Leo presses the button on his bracelet that turns it on to video mode, showing him off in all his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle glory.]

My name is Leonardo, and I'm a ninja.... among other things. I was born an ordinary turtle, but when my brothers and I were babies, we fell into a puddle of this alien ooze and...

[He gestures around with his hands.]

Here I am now.

And just for the record, I still think this is a bad idea. You have no idea how many of my sensei's orders I just broke by doing this, but... if I'm going to be fighting on the same side or doing whatever we need to do to save Freyr, then I don't want any of you to attack me thinking I'm not on your side.

So... any questions?

[For a moment, Fuuka raised an eyebrow at him. She didn't mind that he was a talking ninja turtle ~~of pure awesome~~, it was more the fact that he needed to hide it. There were so many people here in Asgard of different worlds, it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Still, he might not feel comfortable with it.]

It sounds like you made your choice...just like I have.

Uh, yeah. Hope this means I'm not fired from gathering that stuff now.

[A nervous chuckle. He's honestly getting better reactions to this then he expected... and part of that worries him.]

What choice is that? Are you coming with us Fuuka-san?

What? O-Of course not, why would you say that? I don't mind if you're not human. In fact, I'm still glad that you're willing to help me...

[...]

I might but I'm still thinking about it.

Hey, no offense! It's just... not all humans tend to want to get close to me. But I know not all humans are like that, and I'm glad you're not.

[... He hates being the harsh one ~~he saves that for Raphael~~ but he's gotta be honest.]

You'd definitely have the more useful power for fighting someone called the Ice Queen, but... have you ever been in a fight before?

[There was a sad smile coming from the girl. He was right, not a lot of people would...but it makes it all the more important that she does something right?]

And I'm just glad that you're willing to do so much for everyone despite everything! So...I should be thanking you!

That is true but...I'm afraid that's the problem. I don't know how and my fire magic isn't all that impressive either...

[The joys of being support]

[Leo smiles at her, but it doesn't last long. Time for his least favorite part of being the leader..... other than explaining things to Mikey a hundred times..... and arguing with Raphael... and- okay maybe not least favorite.]

Then.... maybe it's best if you sit this one out. I know you want to help but, it's gonna be dangerous. I've been training how to be a ninja for fifteen years since the day I mutated, and I know there's a lot of things I can't do...

[His tone grows considerably darker after saying that.]

I'm not gonna tell you what you can and can't do... but I don't think it's a good idea.

[As he continued his words, Fuuka had a feeling this would happen. She's not a fighter by any means but if there was something she could help out with...]

I know but...I still wonder if there's anything else I can do about this situation.

[Pause]

Back home, I was support for those who did fight. I think there is a chance I might have to do the same here...

Well, if you still want to come, like I said I won't stop you. But you should try and keep your head down.

If you want I can show you a few tricks. Maybe help keep you alive if things go wrong.

I'm still thinking about it but...if there was a way I could go and act as support, then I might. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

And really? Um...what kind of tricks?

Well if you can think of one, and it's what you really want, then you should go for it. Just be careful, okay?

Simple ninja stuff. How to keep out of sight, how to escape a nasty situation. I'm not half the ninja my sensei is, but I figure I should be able to teach someone at least how to do that.

Don't worry, I will. And if there's anything that could get me in danger, I'll... be sure to run and help as many people as I can.

[She doesn't like it but hey, what other choice does she have? She's not a fighter but there isn't much she can do.]

Hm...that does sound interesting! I'm not too sure how well I'll be able to do those things [without Juno] but I can certainly try!

[She can't see it but Leo gives her a smile.]

It's not easy to admit what you can't do.

It'll take a lot of practice. It took me fifteen years to perfect it. Still, it's better than nothing.

It isn't but...I'm afraid I don't have much of a choice. I don't want to disappoint some people if I can't do that something.

F-Fifteen? Goodness, it's going to take quite a while for me to have an understanding of what to do!

[Because really? How can she manage to any of that???]
