I'm back from a work trip and hopefully about to start the ball rolling on a little collaborative project today, so though I haven't written anything today *yet*, I'm planning on it. I'm really excited.

As for my solo projects, here's a little snippet of some ninja turtles experiencing the feeling of basking in the sunlight for the first time:

"I can hear you thinking from here, Leo," Mikey said without opening his eyes. He sounded so far away. They were less than four feet apart. "Just relax and focus on developing a niiiice golden tan, capische?"

"Turtles don't tan..." Donny mumbled into his arm. "Can sunburn though. 'Specially since we don't get much UV exposure. Should've," he yawned, "had us apply some lotion before."

The heat was getting to Leo. The warmth spread from his head to his shoulders and down his shell, slow as dripping molasses.

Leo had felt warm before. Obviously. He'd huddled next to the radiator in the middle of the winter, taken a steaming shower in April's bathroom, and more than once slept under a thick pile of brothers and blankets until he woke up too hot and sweatily wriggled himself free. He'd never sat out under the bright morning sun, though, and he'd never felt warm like this.

Everywhere the sun brushed across his skin, he could practically feel the way his muscles softened, knots untangling, leaving him boneless. He was so tired, and giving in would be so, so easy.

Thank you!

The person I was hoping to collab with wasn't available yesterday, but they have some time today, so I'm looking forward to it :D

Writing on other things in the meantime went well, though!
