Some people might be horrified at the prospect of giving a fourteen-year-old a pair of rocket-boots.
As the fourteen-year-old in question, Donnie was absolutely ecstatic. Even for the lack of a proper explanation, he studied the areas of interest as Tony pointed them out, the suggestion of a grin eventually stretching out into a full-blown, undeniable look of glee.
"Seriously?! Ohmygosh that's awesome!" Because it was totally safe having jet engine boosters strapped to your feet. But he clearly meant it as he hugged the boots to his chest like a kid having just found the thing they'd been hoping for on Christmas day. Sure, it wasn't uranium, but he'd never gotten anything like this before.
Whatever sullen mood he'd worn earlier was quickly slung off in favor of this new rush of excitement- only put briefly on pause as he hesitated in trying those boots on for size as he looked up at the 'rain'. Were these waterproof? more importantly, he didn't want to stick damp turtle feet in his new toys.
