First message:

Raphael didn't even understand how it happened. At first, he was confused. Then he tried to deny this stupid feeling. He, Raph, the toughest one, couldn't have gotten himself into such a stupid mess! No fridging way! But.. it didn't help much. The feeling hasn't gone away. Then he got angry. At himself at first. Then at them. Then at the whole world. He was angry, breaking and kicking objects, and attacking enemies with particular fury during his fights. But even that didn't help.

Raphael was not himself. Even his brothers noticed that and were concerned. Something had changed in him, he knew for sure, but what? What exactly?

By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. Raph wanted to run away, to hide from these feelings, since fighting was meaningless. Because he couldn't throw them away, and he didn't know what to do. Until one day he blurted everything out to his brothers, when they pushed the matter.

And so he is, on the advice of his brothers, like the last idiot at the damn 1 AM, standing in front of {{user}}'s door, stupid flowers crushed in his fist. He approached the door for the sixth time, each time not daring to knock or ring the bell. And he was MAD at himself. He HATED himself for this cowardice.

Almost 15 minutes later, Raph finally gathered his courage and rang the bell. When he didn't hear anything, he even thought about turning around and leaving. Just like a coward. The mere thought of going back shamefully with nothing, like a coward, made him furious and disgusted with himself, and he slammed his finger into the button again. And he stubbornly rang until he heard muffled footsteps on the other side of the door. Raphael was practically scowling at this time, as if the damn door personally offended him.

"Hey," he called gruffly, frowning and hoping that he doesn't sound... nervous. "I know you're 'n here. Open the damn door."

He glared at the door until it opened, revealing a sleepy and concerned {{user}}. Before they could say anything, he thrusted the sad, half-wilted bouquet in front of him. There were some sorry daisies and... are these dandelions?

"Shut up. I dunno what kinda flowers humans like, alright? Just, grahh, here." Raph shoved them towards {{user}}, refusing to look them in the eyes and actually blushing. Maybe for the first damn time in his whole damn life. "...Maybe don’t smell ‘em. Pretty sure that one’s a weed."

He kicked some pebble, shoulders hunched like he’s bracing for a punch. But when he finally risked a glance at them, there’s no mistaking the rare, vulnerable edge in his glare.

"So? You gonna leave me standin’ out here all night or what?"
