The family stopped in surprise as the turtles came running up to them, tense for a moment. Then, as it became apparent what was happening, Mikey grinned and made his way onto the red carpet, strutting his stuff and clearly showing off. The orange banded turtle wasted no time in showing off his brown hakama pants and orange, crane patterned kimono, giving his flashiest poses. It didn't take long for him to drag the others in on it, either.
Raph gave a couple of tough guy poses, his red maple kimono and black hakama pants striking, even when he did goof around with Mike a bit. The two of them, managed to drag Leo in on it, too. And while the leader struck a few stoic poses at first, his blue, fish patterned kimono and navy hakama pants fitting very well with his persona, it didn't take him too long to do a couple of flashy poses with his katana, even if he did hear his brothers calling him a nerd a couple of times.
Donnie wasn't entirely sure what to do, being only eight. However, with a little encouragement from his brothers, he was running and making his way down the red carpet too, doing a few poses with his staff, his little gray hakama pants and geometrically patterned purple kimono looking perfect. He grinned as his brothers drew him into pictures with them, having fun with those.
Splinter came last, every inch the respectable sensei in his brown silk kimono, the dragon patterns on it gleaming. Still, he couldn't let his sons have all the fun, and he showed off a few moves for the camera, before getting a few pictures with his sons.
And in the end, they did manage to finally get a good groupshot of themselves.
Splinter took the card that was handed to them with both hands and bowed at the turtles who had done the impromptu photoshoot.
"Thank you," he said. "I am looking forward to seeing those pictures."
