Splinter has learned a harsh lesson, but how can he reconcile this with his sense of honour? Will he be able to overcome his self-doubt to rejoin his sons as their Master?

Chapter One was a good read. I thought the "travelling without moving" scene with Splinter using his mind and meditation to connect with his sons was awesome. :D
And it was so cool to know that Michelangelo was listening to Basement Jaxx! I friggin' love that band! XD
I lol'd at the part when Splinter agreed to the main chorus of the song.
"Splinter had followed his sons’ contemplations and marvelled at the difference between the wisdom that Michelangelo could sometimes reveal, almost accidentally, and the non-stop frivolity that he usually spouted."
^ I really liked that little paragraph. You described it pretty well and I absolutely loved your characterisation for Splinter.
I'll leave another review once I've finished reading the rest of the chapters.
Keep it up, Rei! :D
I'm really glad you like my characterization of Splinter. I've always seen him as being somewhat flawed, yet his flaws add to the respect I have for him, and I started this story to really explore that aspect of Splinter.
Hehehe, Basement Jaxx rocks! ^^ And that song has been a 'Mikey' one for me ever since I first heard it, I just think he'd love it too. And it does suit him pretty well! ;D
Shall do! I'm hoping to get moving with updating my older stuff on P&S a bit more. Then I don't have to worry about uploading a backlog of stuff, just knuckling down and writing it moar of it!
