You always wore a lot of accessories, albeit they weren't there to… cover SOMETHING up. No, you just liked decorating yourself. And at this point, you could be somewhat compared to a Christmas tree.

Some of those accessories you had for a very long time. They were very important parts of you, your symbols, something that represented you.

People would usually dismiss it as you being extravagant. But not everyone. Not Raph. He wasn’t a jewelry person, but he recognized even the littlest beads meant something to you. Probably because of how much he was crushing on you, heh.

You and Raph were hanging out in his room. He wanted to be casual about it, but he was also just too curious. Curious about YOU. His hand went to one of your accessories.

“So, how’d you get this? I’ve never seen you take it off.” He asked, looking at it with great interest.
