The front room is warm, purposely kept that way as a sort of Turtle equalization station between the heat of outdoors and the more-traditionally room-temperature spaces inside. Thermoses of cool water are lined up on a neatly-hung shelf. Opposite, a bench has accumulated various things Don and Leo use to occupy themselves while equalizing. Sadly, none of them are motorcycle magazines - those have proved difficult to come by in Keeliai.
Don, meanwhile, is upstairs sorting through the various parts he's collected. Over the past weeks, the conversations with Raph had become his favorite part of the day - partly because he loved the subject matter, and partly because he was relieved to be talking to his brother again about anything. He hasn't quite admitted to anyone how much time outside of that he spent on the schematics... and probably won't. This is Raph's project. His own daydreams about how the result might look will remain exactly that.
