@backmaskcd -- for your choice!

Daishiro had had a snow cone before, but it had been a long time ago, and he did not really remember whether he had liked it or not, so he was willing to have another go at trying one. He just could not decide which one to try. Glancing at the person beside him, he asked, "Do you have any recommendations? I haven't had a snow cone in such a long time I think I've forgotten what it was like, so I'll willing to try any one you think is good."

Another human joins the expidition

[ghostsbrokenbyfairytales]

who: nathan and daishiro @darkestxdreams

“You tryna do one of those things?” nathan asked the guy standing next to him, drink in hand as he gestured towards one of the makeshift haunted houses. “I’m mostly curious to see what kind of shit they stuck in there, had to have been scary enough since i’ve heard a few screams come out of there.”

[endlessreruns]

cont'd from here ( @darkestxdreams )

"What's crawled up your arse to make you so grouchy?" Eldon raised a brow at the man. "Or is that just what happens when you become a fuckin' old geezer?"

[detectivegoldstein]

James started choking on his drink as he took another look at the man who'd just entered the bar. Instinctively his hand went to his waist, only to grasp at nothing but fabric where his badge once rested. Pushing up from his chair, he immediately moved towards Daishiro, grabbing onto the other man's elbow tightly.

"Ya don't know me, but I know exactly who you are Takahashi," he hissed just loud enough to be heard over the din of the other bar patrons. "I don' give a fuck what yer doing in this town, but don't fuckin' make it any harder on these people than they already got it."

{DigiAdvs+02}/{Index} IzzyIzumi / KoushirouIzumi’s Fanfics for Koushiro, Taichi, & Koushiro x Taichi {KouTai}/{+Etc. (+Friendships)&Ship[s]}

I know there’s been a lot of DigiAdvs fan-events going on lately. I usually can’t participate in most events for varying reasons including personal ones, but I’m glad to share my past works in the form of this index.

ALL were created out of Positivity and respect for this series.

[I'm trying to keep this out of less commonly-used tags; but I do use some of {these} for organizing on my blog!] (Please note ALL tags/etc on fic[s] before reading / Interacting)

Title: REPEAT?_ Rating: Mature (one fade-to-black scenario) {Taichi & Koushiro are heavily implied as having a sexual relationship} (The dynamic is more like Queer-platonic with Aro-spec & A-spec leaning) Head-canon{s}: Demi-romantic Pan-sexual Koushiro; (+ Queer, uses various labels) Pan-romantic Demi-sexual Taichi (+ Queer; uses Gay & various label) Ship{s}: KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} (Main Focus) A-spec!YamaSora {Yamato x Sora} is implied for a few very fleeting, brief moments {along with a single ambiguous timeline one-shot} + Queer!Jou x Bi & Queer!Mimi is implied super briefly in spinoff one-shot. + YamaSora{Jou}/Mi as a Poly-ship can be read into spin-offs too where wanted. + 02 Chosen having minimal appearances in spin-offs (no ships yet.) (Daisuke is timeline-wise still crushing hard on Hikari and bouncing around potential relationship dynamics w/others & O.C.s but it’s not referenced here.) Summary:

Taichi wasn't sure what he was expecting. …He just knew it wasn't… this…

(Please see inside for ALL Notes!)

Title: The Past World Rating: PG-13 (will not go higher) Notes: Implications about self-loathing (both Taichi & Koushiro) & Koushiro's previous self-depreciation {Novels-implied} in general Royalty!A.U.; however things may not be as they appear… “"Dark”"!Chosen Children A.U. appears in some parts (mainly in flash-back form, until…). Characters: Taichi, Koushiro, Adventure Chosen team, 02 Chosen Ship{s}: (Same as "Infalliable" listed below can be read in) + KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} focus. Ken+Miya has a scene where they're both present, but not completely in a relationship yet; as friendly. YamaSora is implied for a few very fleeting, brief moments + Ken x Daisuke is implied for a total of one (flash-back) A.U. scene, but will come to have a heavy presence in future sequels to this A.U. Summary:

"-- About that, you'd be better off asking your new advisor," "H-huh?-" When suddenly -- -- as if out of nowhere -- -- from a short distance -- a shy gaze peers up at him

… pure black eyes.

Title: Possession Rating: PG-13 / R (Violence implied) Notes: early Epilogue era / Taichi and Koushiro are adults, 30-35+ - can be conidered a spin-off timeline / part of REPEAT?_ - partly based on general head-canons, partly based on my old as heck Digi-O.C. fic and the head-canons I / Young me had for its own future / epilogue era - Leans more post-02, {not really Tri} canon compliant overall (thus many things happen differently between these two things - I hadn’t seen Tri yet before initially developing this “time-line”) - (still) very vaguely based on a few new ideas / Thoughts gained from Tri - KouTai + Government Corruption A.U.??? + Ambassador!Taichi (Koushiro hasn't quite reached the "Digital World" Researcher position Yet) {who is trying to fight against said Corruption, but...} Summary: "We’re… being targeted," "but not just by---"

"One, a certain one, among them" "had the power to open the gate" "–and immediately close it again"

Title: Dress Rating: G Character{s}: brief references (in thought) to Sora; Mimi; Izumi family + Yoshie Izumi (Yes, I know others like “Kae” for her. She’s “Yoshie” here because I liked that name and it’s what I used in my old fic-stuff because that’s how I knew Mrs. Izumi as for years. No, I’m not changing it. {Its also how I differentiate between canon and spin-off timelines with Izumis}) Ship{s}: KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} (Implied briefly at end in Thought) Notes: Discussion of Koushiro and Gender Identity. Summary:

Koushiro remembers only feeling perturbed by such “clothes”.

Title: Candles Rating: r18 Implied ? (Pre?-Fade-to-Black) or Mature / technically Work-safe Notes: some very personal Specific Headcanons are heavily implied technically part of REPEAT?_Verse, ( ficverse version here ); - it can be read as a standalone fic - it can be read as an AU and/or spinoff of the main REPEATVerse; - or as its own standalone AU/spinoff Verses: Post-Advs (can also be post-Tri/Kizuna); pre-Epilogue [+pre-’having’ Kids]; Taichi has graduated a while ago by now. Taichi has been involved with his Ambassador career for a while, but it’s still getting off the ground too. (And it’s . Stressful) +Taichi and Koushiro are heavily implied to be living together already here. Summary:

Taichi is having … a hard time.

Featured Head-canon: Jew!Taichi (+Koushiro in the process of converting/joining) Implied (A.K.A : Taichi is both mixed J.P.N and Jew)

Title: Ten Rating: PG-13 (Psuedo not-really-character-death implied) Character{s}: Koushiro Izumi & Daisuke Motomiya {Friendship} Ship{s} KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} heavily Implied Summary:

“…Can you turn around and— - it’s April 2004. (..Or is it April 2003? Spring 2003?) - at the end of Spring 2003, something else astonishing occurred: Daisuke’s sister Jun, the Inoue sisters, & Shuu Kido all became Chosen at once. - an incident, (occured, and then) —

“I’ll help, so we, you, can get out of here !!—”

“They {Won’t come}”

…TAICHI-SENPAI’s GOGGLES ( … Are probably absolutely unfitting for Koushiro Izumi, but…. ) Trigger warning for above (avoid looking for Spoiler): (Psuedo not-really-character-death implied)

Featured Head-canon: Jew!Taichi (+Koushiro in the process of converting/joining) Implied (A.K.A : Taichi is both mixed J.P.N and Jew)

Title: Dreams Rating: r-18 Implied ? (Pre?-Fade-to-Black) (Also S.F.W segments from younger days referenced) {It's a bit Ambiguous. You Might Get An Idea TM} Summary:

Sometimes, Koushiro dreams. (Of Brown hair, Brown eyes.)

This can serve as a prequel spinoff to my other Koushiro-centric series, "REPEAT?"_-verse or be read as a standalone.

Title: (Dirty) Computer Summary:

"Do you like computers?" Tentomon had asked Koushiro, once.

“You just like working with machines more ‘THAN PEOPLE’, don’t you?!” … But why does it MATTER if Koushiro – DID —

A character study and analysis on Koushiro Izumi's Canon personality, (with a touch of heavily implied headcanons), with brief references to Koushiro's notable relationships, Family, and those Interests. "It's OK for you to be obsessed with computers!" - Mr. Masami Izumi, Adventure Episode #38 (There are some light references to the novel's given backstory details for Koushiro, including Koushiro's mindset there.)

Title: Koushiro Izumi Is Touched By Death Rating: PG Notes: Implications about Death & Grief (for passed loved ones), + the mourning/grieving process in general Characters: Koushiro & Daisuke {Friendship} Ship{s}: (Implied) KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} can be read into the background, but is not actively discussed / mentioned Summary:

In which Koushiro Izumi Is Traumatized, Has Always BEEN Traumatized, And Daisuke Motomiya {NOTICES}.

Takes place shortly before "the summer of" a somewhere between 2003~2005. (02 takes place in April~December 2002, Tri takes place in 2005 June~December.) {Tri knowledge is not required to read, but may be helpful to understand continuity.}

Title: Infalliable Rating: PG Notes: Implications about self-loathing & Koushiro’s previous self-depreciation {Novels-implied} in general Characters: Koushiro & Daisuke Ship{s}: (Implied) KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} can be read into the background, but is not actively discussed / mentioned; Daisuke x (Girl)!O.C. (“Hikaru”); in background; (My O.C. does not appear much within the context of the fic, but the dialogue refers to an event they were involved in immediately previously, with a Koushiro-focus and Daisuke-relevant aftermath.) Daisuke x O.C. aren’t “together” yet; it is developing relationship. Ken x Daisuke x O.C. may be Implied in spin-off fic{s}; KenxMiya may be implied in semi-canon-compliant 'verses, with former Ken x Daisuke heavily implied / mutually requited-yet-unrequited (as Daisuke is pursuing a direct relationship with someone else for a while, and Ken does not pursue a relationship with Daisuke yet) / hinted. Poly-ships may be included in any future spin-off, but none are referenced in this specific one (yet). Summary:

Daisuke stares moodily ahead. Koushiro does the same, except Daisuke genuinely doesn’t know - cannot even tell - if Koushiro’s doing it “moodily” or not, because Koushiro’s blank staring is that unreadable. They sit, Daisuke next to Koushiro, for a few long, long moments. And then – Koushiro… opens his mouth – “I’m not infalliable.” Daisuke’s eyebrows furrow, even if he can’t look at Koushiro in this exact moment –

“Unshakeable? Indestructible–” Daisuke’s head hurts. “I admit there was a time when I thought, …” “NO!! That’s not true!!”

“When you asked me, 'What about YOU, Daisuke-kun’ – the one who gave me that push – that was you.”

A “missing scene” of Daisuke & Koushiro friendship from my other Adventures & 02 Chosen fic; “The Past World” You do not have to read that one to appreciate this “missing” moment, as its mainly friendship. There is a slight hint of Daisuke/Original (“Girl”) Character OC, but its more lightly implied; (Epilogue semi-canon compliant) There are also background relationships like Taichi/Koushiro, the slightest hint of background Ken/Daisuke, others hinted.

Trigger warning: for above (avoid looking for Spoiler):

Koushiro is heavily implied as once having considered suicide (pre-series). (No longer actively)

Title: Words Rating: PG Notes: Implications about self-loathing & Koushiro’s previous self-depreciation {Novels-implied} in general; with a focus on self-acceptance + Koushiro’s heavy use of formal speech and communication in the J.P.N version is referenced frequently. Tri is referenced / implied-as-AUs or for semi-canon compliancy (light spoilers for Kokuhaku; but not majorly referenced; just a quote) {plus a gif of a small moment involving Taichi + Koushiro} [also one more small conversation moment between Taichi and Meiko] (a scene from the first episode of the 2020 Reboot is referenced) - it can be read as a standalone fic - it can be read as an AU and/or spinoff of the main REPEATVerse; - or as its own standalone AU/spinoff (i.e. this can be read on its own) Characters/Groups: Taichi & Koushiro; Koushiro Izumi & Tentomon; Koushiro Izumi & Mimi Tachikawa; Koushiro & Izumis Ship{s}: KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} focus Summary:

– To be honest,

Taichi and Koushiro don’t need words.

( They have a lot more than Just )

( words )

Title: Hands Rating: r-18 Implied (Fade-to-Black) Notes: nothing major is shown but they are sharing a bed; - it can be read as a standalone fic - it can be read as an AU and/or spinoff of the main REPEATVerse; - remember when Taichi implied Yamato was “sharing a room” with “Sora”? (see near end of Pt 5 of the fic) ( this may be that instance, or it may be something completely different; it can be post-fic or anything applicable! ) [ it does fit in nicely with that implied instance, though ] Character{s}: Yamato, Sora, Mimi Ship{s}: Yamato x Sora x Mimi {YamaSoMi} as equal-on-all-sides Poly-ship (Yamato has lesser of attraction to women / anyone aside from Sora & Mimi) Summary:

she’s – also – facing – past him. Towards – Mimi hums, reaching and entangling her hand into Sora’s.

( Somehow , ) “ Hey, can we … ” but then, again – “ Can we ? ”

Title: Donor Rating: PG-13 (Discussion of Fertility-relevant topics) Character{s}: Koushiro; + Koushiro’s past not-quite-partner O.C. implied; Taichi is referenced; the lead-up to Koushiro’s Child (from Epilogue)’s eventual birth is heavily implied Ship{s}: KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi} heavily implied in background {Koushiro has a dynamic with an adult woman / G.N.C O.C. involved} (Koushiro believes Koushiro’s feelings for Taichi are unrequited until adulthood; but are they really? Not quite...) Notes: bit of angst-y introspection over-the-years style but otherwise a good end Summary:

Koushiro is twenty years old. Does he even want a family ? Koushiro is in his early twenties. His parents are once again celebrating their anniversary. He smiles at them yes I WANT A FAMILY

[If you are a heavily Koushiro-negative, Taichi-negative, Hikari-negative, Meiko-negative, DigiGirls-negative (including their family members), Adventure {Our War Game}, 02 {+movies}, Tri {+Digi-Stage-play}, Kizuna, “The Beginning” potential, 2020, Tamers, Frontier, Xros Wars + Hunters, Ghost Game, or Wonderswan games negative any-of-the-above stan{s} to the point you can’t even be polite interacting with fan-works and fans of these series; PLEASE DO NOT Interact on my works or blog, I MAY Hard-BLOCK YOU IF I NOTICE.]

[Note: Tags/replies that are Positive/respectful are O.K.!]

[curreres]

there's something about that sentiment that rings true for her — very true, actually. "i can see that," aiko muses with a slow nod of her head, nails tapping slowly at the side of her mug. "i, um. used to be a singer," because saying 'hey, i'm sure you don't recognize me, but i used to be, like, a popstar with sold out tours' was a little embarrassing, "things were kinda always decided for me before. i get to think for myself for the first time, too. it's scary but... nice? so i guess we're kinda similar that way."

Admittedly, it was probably pretty hard for people to find a silver lining to being stuck in town. And even though Daishiro was happy to be away from his family's reach, he was obviously sorry to be limited to only being in town, and of course to have to worry about the threats lurking at night. So there were a few times when he wondered if it was really worth the trade-off. He did not want to tell her the whole truth, but he could certainly be vague enough to give a realistic answer. "Being on my own, for the first time in my life, really. Being able to make my own choices and decide what's right for me. I know there's limited options in town, but even small choices are a lot more than I ever got to make before."

He definitely agreed. Daishiro had just never gotten a chance to do something like this before coming to town. He could only imagine the reaction his family would have given to see him trying to help a dog. A ranger. That certainly explained why he was there. "I was actually just…out for a walk," Daishiro admitted, "I had never spent much time in a place with so much nature before coming to town, so that's something I try to enjoy as much as I can. When it's safe to do so, obviously," he added, not wanting Donovan to think he wandered around at night.

"Both of us have a keen eye and a big heart," Don said with a small smile before tugging more at the surrounding area. He was looking to create a big enough opening without making much worse on the little guy. "I'm Donovan. Ranger over this way." It felt professional but it explained why he was out here at least. "What were you doing out here anyway?"

New Fic Excerpt - Daughter of the Silent Waves

Men whispered of the paradise beneath the sea, a veritable Atlantis amid dark, cruel depths where few dared to tread.  It was where the waves ran silent, where the sapphire blue turned a velvety indigo.  The surface world would not have dared to call it a metropolis, but in the cold of the ocean, it was as glorious of a city as could be built under the salt and water.  The god of the feral ocean had sheltered them here for centuries now, protected under a divine blessing that came in the shape of a dome.  It kept the crushing waters out and the refugees inside.  And thus had they lived, a micro-world in a snowglobe—their City of Silent Waves. When war had come to their ancestral lands, the waters had welcomed them.  In a world marred by sin and violence, it was the final bastion hope and sanctuary.   Or so they believed.

---

A song of blades clashing echoed the halls of the Water God’s temple.  It was not the usual hymns of reverence that so often filled those ancient corridors but it was, in its own way, a sacred thing.  In the main hall stood a lonely stone monument to their savior, the great Dragon God.  Beneath his gaze, two Au Ra fought, a blade in each hand.  Cunning and strength, calm and chaos—he had long taught her that they were both aspects of the same coin, no different than how the sun and moon in the world beyond their dome both reigned the sky in tandem. But in their duel, she felt nothing but chaos rushing inside of her.  Her twin blades collided with his and she threw her power behind it in desperation.  These spars had been a common practice since she could hold a blade.  At first, he had gone easy on her and she suspected he still was.  Each time their swords clashed, she felt the blows ring through her body.  His eyes pressed upon her in scrutiny.  Her heart leapt and she lashed out wildly, foolishly.  It was met with her own downfall; a half-second later saw his foot hooking her ankle.  She fell and a cold edge was at once at the back of her nape. Her mentor gave a disdained tch as he stepped back and sheathed both of his swords.  She heard him step away, disappointment in his breath. “Rise,” came his command, voice deep as the rolling waves outside. She pulled herself off the cold of the stone floor, feeling embarrassment burn across her neck and face like wildfire.  “You are reckless.  You let your fear ignite a pyre in your heart when you fight,” he said to her.  “And then you let it consume you.  You know better.” Her head lowered.  She did know better. “To tell you to never fear would be folly.  So I will not tell you that.  I will tell you instead to make them fear you far more than you could fear them,” he continued.  “And if something is to burn, let it be them, Akari.  Never yourself.” “Yes, Father,” she replied, head lifting to watch him.  Daishiro Asagiri looked over his blades carefully, their blue-steel hue glinting in the faint firelight from nearby torches.  He tested both swords with the flicks of his wrist then he turned to face his daughter once more.  A permanent frown had carved its way onto his face over the years but she was used to his lack of warmth.  Such was his way.  He had always strived to mold her into something better than she was.  A rightful prodigy to the General of the Blue Valley.  “There may be a day when the dome is threatened,” Daishiro said to her.  “And all we know could be crushed by the waters around us.  What will your fear be worth in a fight for your life?” A silence.  And he had his answer.  A satisfied light shone in his magenta eyes. “Nothing.” It was a harsh truth but that was only language Daishiro Asagiri spoke.  And Akari knew that.  She nodded.  He pointed at her fallen weapons on the ground with one of his swords.   “Fetch your blades.  And then, again, we shall fight.  But this time, do not be afraid.  Be cunning, Akari.  And be strong.”
