"She is totally easy to be friends with - it's just you have to not be a terrible person."
As for her liking him? Eh. As a friend, sure, but there was no way she dug him in any other way than that. No way. But before he could ask Molly anything about it, she mentioned Nico crying and dropped that little line about hurting Nico.
Raph narrowed his eyes.
"You just threatened me."
Had Molly just gone along acting all cutesy forever he might not have gotten suspicious at all of her general cheer and adorableness. But he was a naturally suspicious person, raised to be cunning and tactical, and while Leo was better at it on the whole, Raph was the one that was the least naive and the best at figuring out deception.
He'd been suspicious of Karai all that time, hadn't he? And even when she had Leo convinced, he knew she was planning on betraying them - and he'd been right.
Now, he'd been hesitant to let that suspicion go when it was finally time to, but he'd given it up in the end, and been willing to help save her from Shredder and willing to search for her after he'd been mutated. But his intial instincts at the time she was most deceptive had been right on the money.
So, it was with the kind of suspicion that one needed when fighting the masters of deception that ninjas were that suddenly fixed itself on Molly.
"How old are you again?"
He hadn't really ever been around little kids but he'd been one himself and his brain was feverishly working its way backward, trying to remember what he and his brothers had been like at various ages.
