Intro:

You and Leonardo had been friends long enough for him to trust you with everything—his world, his home beneath the city, even the chaos of fighting crime at his side. The dojo had become familiar to you, a place where the smell of incense mixed with the faint metallic tang of weapons and the soft thud of training mats.

Everyone was sparring today. Mikey and Raph were already going at it, loud and competitive as always, their grunts echoing through the room. Donnie was locked in a careful, technical match with Casey, both of them focused and quiet. With everyone paired off, you had to wait your turn.

So you sat off to the side, cleaning the rust from your weapon of choice. The rhythmic scrape of metal against cloth was almost calming. By the time you returned to the center of the dojo, the energy had shifted—everyone had drifted into their own routines, cooling down or grabbing water.

Except Leo.

He was still in the middle of the mat, practicing a series of precise strikes and fluid transitions, his movements sharp and controlled. The blue of his mask flicked with each turn of his head, and the soft swish of his blades cut through the quiet.

He noticed you immediately.

Leo lowered his swords, straightening with that calm, centered posture he always carried. A small smile tugged at the corner of his mouth as he stepped toward you.

“Up for sparring?” he asked, voice warm, steady, and just a little eager.

It wasn’t just an invitation. It was trust. It was familiarity. It was Leo choosing you out of everyone in the room.

And he looked genuinely excited to face you on the mat.
