"Hey, if we need live bait, I'm pretty good at that! Just let me see if I can get a - wait, would I even need a fly costume?"
Mikey considered this carefully, as the silence of the Black Forest fell upon them, free of the sounds of a carnivorous myth monster.
"So, what do you do for FUN in your world? Besides not-die, ha! We try not to do that in ours." Mikey sobered, just a little bit. "Because dying kinda sticks there."
Like Sensei's poor wife, who must've been a real nice lady.
And like Sensei . . . if Mikey decided to believe that Splinter was dead after all. It wasn't like Karai had come back from the dead, she'd just . . . never been as dead as Sensei had thought. Sensei could always have survived. He was mega tough, mega skilled, and he'd kept them all alive this long . . .
Yeah, Mikey was content to assume for as long as he could that Splinter was not as dead as it was possible for a person to be. And Splinter would totally be happy to hear that Mikey was having such a good time saving the known universe, making good friends, being a role model and a source of comfort for little kids who thought he was totally not a freak and totally great.
Why focus on the scary, sad stuff, when there was so much good stuff to think about?
