Don't Eat Yellow Snow
WHO: Donnie and yooou
WHERE: Not-Hoth
WHAT: Baby it's cold outside
WHEN: During Nothmas
WARNINGS: N/A
NOTES: Will match tag format/preferences
I. Observation
While Donnie has his qualms about the sturdiness of the structures they've been provided with as shelter for their winter exile, there doesn't look to be much by way of options. By default he chooses the one with the most purple decorating the outside (shh! No one saw him licking the building), perhaps low-key pleased that there's purple on the inside as well, even if it isn't completely to his aesthetics, but at least the color's not bad. He takes one look at the clothes in the dressers and figures it's probably some previous inhabitant's, thinking no more on that matter.
It's still strange to finally be in the same breathing space as the Agrii. Donnie wanders the weird village in his snow gear to observe their alien abductors. Take some selfies in front of the fabulous tree. Surreptitiously throw a snowball at a hapless Agrii or two and see if he can instigate snowball fights between them. For science.
II. Gift Gremlin
The barn is a curiosity, more so the big questionable robots that seem to be standing guard. Donnie watches from...the roof because that's what ninja do, right? as Agrii drop off gifts. Huh?
Presents are something he hadn't really expected. An Agrii gift exchange? Someone coax this feral boy from the roof so he can get his presents.
III. Second Childhood
a. One day Donnie's communicator is activated, but something's off about the transmission. Since when does Donnie wear glasses? They're quite huge, square-framed, and yes, that is tape over the bridge keeping it in place and string tied around the temples. He peers very closely at the screen as he plays around with it for a bit, having to stop to find his hands now and then because he's all but swimming in a big purple hoodie too many times his size. Eventually he gets tired of this game so he puts the communicator down to go investigate the drawers. Maybe there's him-sized clothes that's put away!
It takes some doing but he finally tugs one open, and perhaps that's when one can really get a sense of just how small the turtle tot is, maybe about two feet high. He starts pulling out sweaters and jackets, more to his size, frowning thoughtfully. Red? Headshake. Blue? No. Orange, that's Mikey's. He makes sure to fold each one up as nicely as he can while he sets them on the floor before looking in the drawer, but he eventually reaches the bottom and finds none for him. Oh.
This is what happens when your dad color codes you.
b. A little lost child in the snow! At least he's bundled up, and by now he doesn't care too much that the jacket he found isn't his color because it's warm and better than nothing. But winter clothes makes it hard to move, the snow, harder still, especially when it comes up past your knees.
He has no idea where he's going and he can't find the cabin he found himself in. It's a bit scary since everything outside is so big and new, not at all familiar like the sewers, not that he's gone very far in them without any of his brothers or his dad. The thought makes him sniffle as he hugs his action figure close. Donnie's not sure where it came from either but he knows Jupiter Jim anywhere! The space hero's poofy plastic afro is fitted in a fishbowl helmet, and he even has karate-chop action! Maybe it's one of his brothers, but right now, it's his emotional support.

"Er. So what else can you do with it?" he asks.
no subject
“Fuse things to weapons,” he says. “Reverse object’s time.”

As for the second question, Link just turns to look at one of the benches. Raises his arm towards it. The arm glows, and then the bench is enveloped in a soft yellow light...as it starts moving up into the air, moving through space...
But it's not directed telekinetically, like it was before. Instead, Donnie may realise, it's moving along a path of where it used to be.
And then, after a few moments, it stops. The yellow light fades, and the bench falls to the ground.
no subject
"Huh. Okay, so not like...reverting it to pieces of wood and nails or something kind of time."
no subject
But Donnie's right - it doesn't revert objects back to a past state. Link shakes his head.
"Recall sends things backwards," he says.
no subject
"Interesting. Well...I'm sure it has its uses." Donnie can't think of any specifically at that moment but if it's basically a fancy 'undo' button, hey, that could come in handy.
no subject
It is the most fancy undo button.
For now, though, Link has something else he needs to undo - and unfortunately, Recall can't help with this. He moves towards the fallen benches and chairs, and starts picking them up and putting them back upright, and into somewhat of the position they were before.
no subject
He steps over towards the nearest clutter of chairs to start helping drag them back where they should be.
no subject
Well, except for the crowd of faintly distressed Agrii. There was that. But he made it better in the end, so...it was probably okay?
Either way, Link nods to himself for a job well done. And he's getting that itch now, the one that says it's time to run off and do something else.
Perhaps at this point, Donnie knows Link well enough to read the signs. He might be able to interrupt, keep Link from running off just yet. But if not, Link's about to make one of his abrupt exists once more.
no subject
Shoving one last bench into place, Donnie figures he'll get something warm to drink while he's in here. He's not in any particular hurry to deal with the snow, especially when that's all that's waiting for them outside.
no subject
Though he does call out, "Bye!", just before he runs off.
