“Raphael,” she said gently. “I know it’s difficult for you to use the past tense-” “It’s not difficult, it’s just wrong,” Raph growled. He couldn’t look at her. This was the thing. The thing that made everyone look at him with pity. Like he was defective or broken. Like he was some stupid idiot who couldn’t get with the program. But it was everyone else who was wrong. Raph was the only one who was living in reality. “Leo. Isn’t. Dead.” _________________ It's been two years since Leo's disappearance. The city has erected a monument in Bryant Park to honor and mourn New York's bravest young hero. While Leo's statue sits in the park, Raph sits in therapy. Everyone believes Raph is too traumatized, too wounded to process the loss of his brother. But there's something Raph can't explain, something only he can feel, something everybody wants him to ignore. It whispers softly somewhere in the deepest corners of his mind: he's still here. Raph listens. [non-canon compliant with Tales of the TMNT. Written pre-release of Tales]
