[He kneels down to look at it closer. Looks like just a bruise and nothing too serious. He'll dig around in the kit for some disinfectant and then bandage padding so nothing bumps up against it and get to work.]
This one wasn't. No matter what we thought could happen, there wasn't any reasoning with it.
[Weird. Well, he'll take care of those too. Just get some gauze to wrap around the whole calf at this point. Stayin busy.]
Mindless violence? Destroying humanity. [He glances up at Hunter before focusing on what he's doing again.] Tried to kill our dad and destroy our family specifically.
[Shredder did enough damage. Destroying their home, killing GramGram- His fingers tighten around the gauze wrap before he forces them to loosen up. Easy.]
[He ties that off and sits back on his heels to examine his handiwork. Looks like it'll stay for now.]
Long story. Just - family thing. [As much as he's willing to be open about a lot of things, the Hamato clan history is not one of those things. He just met this kid and doesn't know what's up just yet.]
Either way, that thing's gone and we're still here kickin' it so, win one for us.
[Yep that's why he insisted on food first, buddy. But he'll lead Hunter back through the lair, stopping for extra sheets along the way.]
April's our best friend. Practically sister? [GramGram said as much; April had told them about the conversation.] And Casey's new. Doesn't have any family here either.
[He gets caught up thinking about Casey, how... weird it is being called 'sensei'. The name he doesn't recognize brings him back, and he keeps the blankets fully in his arms, but lets Hunter take the couple of pillows.]
Yeah? Well, most humans are pretty great so you're already battin' a hundred there having one around.
Well. Yeah. I mean, not every human is gonna be April or- Luz? Luz. Same as youkai, always some bad apples. Doesn't mean they aren't worth getting to know.
I - I'm not saying they're not WORTH it. I'm just - uh - very sure the success rate isn't 100 percent. And less sure about what bats have to do with anything.
[Just leading him back to the subway cars. There's an empty one at the end of the line, past the four brothers'. One next to it is also being used but isn't nearly as lived in as theirs is, while Leo brings the sheets to the completely barren one. It's got a bed set up at least.]
You just gotta take the ones you meet that work out and keep 'em close.
[Okay griffins mmmmmight exist in the Hidden City? There's all kids of weird shit. He'll ask dad later. And if they do, then Leo will go get them while everyone sleeps.]
Sure. If not, I'll fix stuff. Don't worry about it.

Oh. I mean. I’m not sure what an alien is, but the centuries-old demons are usually pretty chill if you don’t make them angry.
no subject
This one wasn't. No matter what we thought could happen, there wasn't any reasoning with it.
no subject
There’s other recent scrapes too, not from a car. And an old scar on his ankle. ]
Really? What did it want?

no subject
He watches that reaction - winces a bit, regretting having brought it up but… ]
Why your family specifically?
no subject

no subject
Family, huh. I get it. You don’t have to explain.
no subject
[He'll stand back up, ready to help him down if he needs.]
So yeah. Hang out, get some sleep. We'll go to the Hidden City tomorrow.
no subject
You’re sure it’s okay for me to stay?
no subject
We'll get you a bed set up.
no subject
[ Hunter just sort of trembles all over. When he stops for the night, he is going to STOP. ]
Who’s Casey and April?
no subject
April's our best friend. Practically sister? [GramGram said as much; April had told them about the conversation.] And Casey's new. Doesn't have any family here either.
no subject
Oh. She ... sounds kind of like Luz, then.
no subject
Yeah? Well, most humans are pretty great so you're already battin' a hundred there having one around.
no subject
Really? I've only ever met a couple. And ... one HAS been great, but the other was. Very bad.

no subject
I - that was the idea. Yeah. Before ... this happened.
no subject
For the moment, he uses that taller shoulder of Hunter's as an elbow rest and leans a bit.]
It'll be all right. We'll see if we can get you sorted out and find your friends tomorrow.
no subject
R. Right. Tomorrow. I - can't do anything if I don't sleep tonight, huh.
no subject
Breakfast is kind of make your own thing, but we'll figure something out.
[He looks at Hunter, considering...]
I'm the car just behind this one if you need anything.
no subject
R. Right. I can make breakfast for all of you! As ... long as you have griffin eggs!
no subject
