[There is a definite pick up in his heart rate. There had been a minor one with asking about it being a test, that need to please, but now it was definitely picking up a lot more.]

[He takes a breath and lets it out slowly, trying to calm down.]

[(Don't panic, you're not incapable, you're just slower than Leo and Raph, but not that slow.)]

[He got called kiddo, oh no, there is approval and affection and support-]

[He presses a button on the Tech Bo, a strobe light appearing at the end as hands appear, roiling across the ground. Donnie is quick to move away, get space as the hand swipes at him, hitting a small table in the hall, setting it on fire.]

[So that is a no on light hitting it directly.]

Why do shadows even have fire, that makes no sense!

[But the hand is still there and Donnie is backing up, watching how it swipes, trying to get a feel for its movement before trying to get in close.]
