Life Update

Talkin' about life beneath the cut. TW for medical talk, mentions of cancer (I am not sick, it's a family member), and family issues. Ngl, it's a heavy one, so please don't read it if you're not up for that.

It's been hard, lately.

Creative

I haven't written in like... 2+ weeks. That is not normal or comfortable for me. I am hoping to plan Koushiro week (dates and prompts) this week and share the info next weekend.

Family Stuff

A maternal family member's health is not looking great. They had the cancerous organ removed, but in the 30 day rest period after surgery, the cancer spread to 2 non-removable organs. They will be starting immunotherapy, as chemo is not usually effective for one of the organs. This family member is in their early 60s, so this is... quite early to be in a multiple organ cancer situation (although cancer knows no age, but... You know what I mean).

We can do a lot for cancer patients these days. I've been researching immunotherapies professionally for 12+ years, so, like... Yeah, we've come a long way, so there is hope. Still, this is devastating news for my family. All I want is for my family member to recover, and to provide effective support without stepping on toes or being insensitive by accident.

With all this going on, my mom isn't doing well. She has her usual stuff. Briefly, for anyone who might be new to my life posts, her husband/my father is a horrible person, I started asking for protection and if we could get away from him when I was 12. Only one family member tried to help me- the same one who has cancer. I've been no contact with my father since I left home in my early 20s. My mother remained with him, and constantly requests help and support because of his abuse. I have to constantly remind her that I can't do anything while she remains with him, as it would put me in his path. And, uncomfortably, I have had to remind her that:

1.) She is an adult and can leave at her discretion

2.) No one helped me when I was a child. Her expectation that her adult child save her is... Not easy to swallow.

Our relationship has always been complicated, but it really suffered a blow about a year ago, when she asked me to lie to the government to save her business (I don't want to get into details, but it was pretty gobsmacking). I of course said no, and provided a legal and much safer alternative, but it would have cost effort, time, and money from her instead of having me take care of everything and, you know... Lie to the government. She responded to my info email, which took me hours and hours of research and several phone calls to assemble, with a nasty response. She did apologize via text a few days later, but things never really recovered. I went from seeing her monthly/every other month to maybe three times per year.

She called about two weeks ago and just... Emotionally dumped on me, the way she did when I was a kid. About how awful her job and husband are, about her family member's illness. And look, everyone needs emotional support, but we don't have that relationship, and I'm also struggling with my family member's diagnosis. Then, she called wanting to meet up with me, which... I frankly don't want to do.

I am not sure what she wants. She might want someone to vent to more, which can't be me. If I do go, I will take my husband- she is far better behaved around him. I'll also make sure it's somewhere I can get up and leave. But people often want to repair relationships when faced with illness of a loved one, and to be honest... I'm much more comfortable with where our relationship is now.

Life stuff

Some friends visited my house for 4 days last weekend, from Fri-Mon. I'm lucky to see them once per year, for reference, because of how far apart we live. It was very fun, but I found myself feeling my age (mid 30s) in ways I never have before. I get up at 7 AM and go to bed around 11 PM, every day. My friends stayed up until like 1 AM and woke up at like 10-11 AM. It's like fucking jet lag, man, I'm still thrown off. A lot of our activities involved eating, too, and holy shit, I have learned that I cannot do that. I have to stick to my normal light breakfast and lunch and everyday dinner. Like, I can do maybe 1 big ol celebration meal per week; I cannot do 1 every day for 4 days. My body neither knows or cares when I'm on vacation and/or with friends.

This is absolutely absurd. I could have done this just fine even like... Idk, 3 years ago??? This is one of the first times I've really, really felt like I'm getting older.

I'm so mad at myself because I was taking decent care of myself in the spring. I started hiking and working out and eating a little better. But when summer hit, it was literally over 90F every day for like... Nearly 3 straight months. It used to be 80s with a few absolute melting days. Now, every day is one of those outliers. I've been stuck inside and not wanting to go out, which, of course, impacts my mental health. I've been feeling lowkey sick/exhausted with stomach issues for nearly three months. I'm really looking forward to the fall and cooler weather, but ofc I need to figure out how to deal with things when I'm stuck inside.

In better news, my husband and I planned our vacation this year. It's... not something I would pick. We are going to Vegas for a few days. I have sensory issues, so uhhh this is not... Good lol! But he's been a Penn and Teller fan since he was a child, and I think they're in their 70s. He wants to see them perform, so we shouldn't put it off, and after the Japan trip last year, I wanted a domestic trip. We're only there for 3 or 4 nights (and holy batman, the hotel rates were absolutely bonkers). The week after, we are going to the Shenandoah Valley area and chilling in a house by a river for three days. I am hoping to see Luray caverns and Shenandoah National Park on the days we are arriving and leaving. This is something much more my speed.

The bad news is that we spent a huge amount of time this weekend planning what we are doing. Vacations have gotten so much more difficult to plan and waaaay more expensive since the pandemic. It's at the point where I question if it's worth it, which is insane because it's such a beautiful world out there! But also holy fuckin shit batman!!!!!

Work

Work is annoying, idk what to tell you, but they pay me pretty well and my boss and coworkers are nice. Nothing really unusual to report.

I hope you are all healthy and well! Please take care of yourselves! Thank you for caring about me <3

Taiora - Hugging them from behind.

Is it ok to ask for Sora to be the one hugging Taichi?

+ smirking in a way that suggests more requested by @xnananko

Thank you for the request Anon, and for letting me know that you wanted Sora to be the one to initiate the hug. Though I'll be honest, when I first saw the notification of the ask, I could only read the first part and I'd already decided that Sora would be the one hugging so I'm glad our thoughts matched up 💖

This fic is set in a post adventure canon divergent au aka no 02/tri/kizuna/epilogue etc 😌

Hope you guys like reading it, posting something Taiora related after 7 months 😅

🧡~~❤️

Taichi would be lying to himself if he said that he had remembered Sora’s birthday correctly.

In fact, in the week leading up to it, he kept thinking he was forgetting something important but couldn’t put a finger on it. Until he arrived at school that morning and passed by Sora’s classroom, almost doing a double take noticing the crowd that had gathered inside. He’d always known that she was the kind of girl who made friends with people easily, but it was when he saw seniors and juniors alike handing her little packages and wishing her enthusiastically did Taichi realise, that maybe he didn’t know Sora all that well after all. He’d quickly made his way back to his own classroom, a little grateful that they weren’t in the same class this year and he could take this time to think about how he was going to make it up to her.

A distant memory of a failed gift from his childhood appeared in Taichi’s mind, how when he’d assumed what was better for Sora without asking her how she felt, it left her feeling upset with him during a crucial Digimon attack. He reminded himself to not make a mistake like that again, lest a wormhole opened up above their school and dropped more evil Digimon which Sora might refuse to fight against together with him.

All jokes aside, Taichi knew that he had to act and act fast. He texted Koushiro casually, asking him if he’d gotten anything for Sora at school, trying to make it seem like that he just wanted to check whether it was better to hand over the gift later, outside of school. His friend replied almost instantly, stating that he’d handed his gift to the birthday girl right at the school entrance this morning. Taichi tried his best not to curse under his breath, he’d seen a glimpse of Mimi’s pastel hair in Sora’s classroom, so he knew there was no point in asking the chirpy brunette. So as a last resort, he turned in his seat and came face to face with his best friend.

“You forgot Sora’s birthday,” Yamato muttered dryly, not looking up from the book he was reading, as if this conversation didn’t deserve that honour.

“Yeah.” Taichi accepted his fault, knowing that there was no point in trying to hide the truth from someone as observant as Yamato.

“And?” Yamato turned the page of the book he was reading and still did not seem as invested enough in this problem as Taichi would like him to be.

“Did you get her anything?”

“I’m dating her best friend, Taichi, so of course we got her a gift. As a matter of fact, we handed it over to her yesterday itself.” Yamato stated this as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, and it was Taichi’s fault that he hadn’t figured it out yet.

“And you didn’t think of reminding me?” Taichi asked, exasperated by his best friend’s cold behaviour.

“What am I? Your assistant?”

“No, I’d like to think you’re my best friend, but apparently not.” Taichi gritted his teeth and turned away from Yamato, letting his head drop on his desk with a loud thud that scared some of his classmates seated around him.

“Just go to the convenience store during lunch and buy her some chocolates.” Yamato offered in a much softer tone than before, maybe the best friend comment seemed to get to him.

“It’s Sora! I can’t just buy her cheap chocolates for her birthday.”

As much as he wanted to hide his guilt and frustration with himself, it was hard to keep the emotions in when he felt so helpless. With his current track record of gifting stupid stuff to Sora, he wanted to make sure that this time around he’d get her something she would truly like. Of course, to do that he should’ve strived to remember her birthday correctly in the first place. However, Taichi still felt that if he had time on his side, he could make up for this blunder and walk up to Sora with the perfect gift in his hand. Maybe Yamato had figured his intentions out too, because he heard his friend sigh loudly behind him.

“I’ll help you in avoiding her today,” Yamato said.“Just make sure you go buy a gift after school and hand it over to her in the evening.”

“You’d do that for me?” Taichi raised his head and looked at Yamato with shining eyes.

“Yes. I am your best friend right?” Yamato smirked as he turned his attention back to his book.

It seemed that Yamato and Mimi were addicted to texting each other in between classes, which is how his best friend was able to figure out Sora’s schedule for the day, and that made hiding from her a very simple task for Taichi. He managed to keep his profile low the entire day, only stepping out from the comfort of his classroom when it was time for his afternoon soccer practice. But he wasn’t worried about getting caught then since most of the school would’ve emptied by the time his practice was over and Yamato had mentioned something about Sora making plans with Mimi for the evening.

And that’s why, as practice went on and Taichi completely immersed himself in the sport, he let his guard down, ruining all the effort he’d put into staying under the radar during school hours.

He stood gulping down water from his sipper at the edge of the soccer field. Their Coach had wrapped up practice with a few words of advice and while most of his teammates were heading back to the locker room, he considered if he should stay back for about thirty minutes to work on his weak points. He’d already figured out what he would buy for Sora, so he knew he wouldn’t take too much time in getting the gift to her, which should free up some extra time for soccer right now. The sun had only just begun to set and Taichi viewed the orange hue that had started to spread across the skyline with a hint of confusion.

Before he could reach a decision, however, he felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist.

Taichi felt his whole body tremble as a familiar and sweet, flowery scent reached him along with the warmth that spread across his back as someone pressed themselves against it. He was frozen to the spot and colour rushed into his cheeks when he looked down and noticed the slender arms that now rested comfortably around his waist. The dimmed rays of sunlight made the beige coloured skin shine like bronze, making his fingers twitch with an ache to trace his name slowly across her arm.

“Gotcha!” A soft giggle reached his ears as he felt a chin rest upon his shoulder.

Taichi tried his best to not jump as an electric sensation ran across his body through his ears, the part where Sora’s breath had tickled against his skin still buzzing. His heart began to beat fast when the fact that Sora’s chest was now touching his back registered in his panic stricken mind.

Deep down he didn’t mind the proximity, especially when Sora had been the one to initiate it.

He was used to letting his hand brush past hers or bumping his shoulder with hers when they walked side by side. He didn’t try to hold himself back when he sat next to her, letting his knee rest by hers, letting his head fall onto her shoulder for a quick nap. He never hesitated to take her hand into his own when they walked through crowded streets or ran to get to school on time. However, Sora had never done anything like this before, sure she played along with him when he tried it, but in those few moments when he expected this of her, she’d shy away by averting her gaze or moving further apart.

Something about today must really be different for Sora to suddenly hug him from behind like this.

With all the willpower he could muster, Taichi pried her hands away from his body carefully and took a few step forwards, so he could turn around and face her with a nervous smile.

“Happy Birthday.”

“Thank you.” She returned his smile in full, cherry eyes filled with excitement as she looked at him.

“You’re quite the popular girl today, huh?” Taichi joked, an attempt to hide the anxiousness of being caught before he had the time to get her a gift.

“Is that why you didn’t come to see me all day today?” Sora folded her arms across her chest, tilting her head as she passed him a confused look.

“Yeah.” He lied, swallowing the nervous gulp in his throat with great difficulty, “Almost couldn’t find you, what with your ladies in waiting forming a wall around you.”

Sora narrowed her eyes at him, he could see the gears in her mind turning as she dissected his words and behaviour. He squirmed under her gaze, finding it difficult to hold his ground, he looked up at the sky instead and started to whistle in a low tune. If Sora hadn’t figured out he was trying to hide something from her till now, he knew that this would’ve definitely given him away. As expected, in the next moment she shook her head and sighed tiredly.

“You forgot it was my birthday today, didn’t you?”

“No, I did not! I totally remembered, you just looked so busy-”

“Oh, Taichi please don’t lie to me today.” She interrupted him with a raised hand and he hated how disappointed she sounded. This was the exact opposite of how he’d expected their conversation to go once he finally decided to face her today.

“Just admit that you forgot, I won’t be mad at you,” Sora said, letting her hands drop to her side so she could fidget with the hem of her uniform skirt.

“I didn’t forget.” Taichi reasserted, though he had no idea from where he was getting the guts to lie so confidently. “I...I even- I even prepared an amazing gift for you.”

Since he’d already dug a hole for himself with the first lie, Taichi decided that he might as well dig a little deeper. Looking at the sudden spark of interest that spread across Sora’s face, he felt more motivated to keep going with the plan he’d just come up with a few seconds ago, despite how utterly crazy and reckless it was.

“Really?” She asked him, eyes wide with hope as she stared at him.

“Yeah. I spent a lot of time thinking about what I should get you this year.” Taichi cleared his throat and took a step forward, reducing the distance between them slightly, “But nothing I saw seemed like the perfect gift that I know you deserve, so I came up with something else. Something...something I couldn’t have given you in front of everyone else.”

The sun had pretty much disappeared against the tall skyscrapers of Tokyo, which left the sky drenched in deep shades of purples and oranges. The violet hues danced off of Sora’s auburn hair, surrounding her with a reddish glow that made it hard for Taichi to look away from. Her bright eyes were fixed on him, anticipation bubbling through them as a pink tint spread across her cheeks. What he was about to do next scared him slightly, but looking at her right now, when she was surrounded by a mesmerising radiance that beckoned Taichi to come closer, he knew that he was taking the right step.

This might not be the gift he’d originally thought of, but it was still a perfect gift nonetheless.

With that thought, Taichi took another step forward to close the distance between them.

He cupped Sora’s chin in his hand and tilted her face upwards, pressing his lips to hers gently. He smiled against her lips when he felt both her hands clutch onto his t-shirt as he leaned deeper into the kiss. A soft moan reached his ears when he used his tongue to caress her lips, tasting her orange-flavoured lip balm. He raised his other hand and traced his fingers across her cheek, feeling her soft skin at his fingertips just so he could remind himself that this wasn’t a dream, but he really was standing on the school soccer field and kissing Sora.

The thought jolted awake his rational side and Taichi pulled away from the kiss abruptly, darting his head around to check if they were being watched. He sighed with relief when he noticed that the lights were out in the school building and the field was completely deserted as well. When he turned his attention back to Sora, he saw that she was still clinging to his chest as pouted up at him.

“So..uh..yeah, happy birthday,” Taichi murmured as he avoided looking at her eyes, feeling the repercussion of his bold move flood to his cheeks in the form of a hot flush.

“Hm. I wouldn’t consider it a happy birthday yet,” Sora said as her lips curved upwards and she let her gaze drop to his lips.

“Uh, I don’t understand-”

“Come on, Taichi,” Sora smirked at him as she stood on her toes so she could lean closer towards him. A mischievous glint danced across her dark, rosy eyes as her smile and low tone suggested more than what her innocent words let on, “You can still give me a better gift than that, right?”

Taichi held his breath for a moment, waiting to see if Sora would laugh and push him away, claiming that she was just joking. But when her eyes stayed fixed on his face and her hands continued to hold onto his chest tightly, he allowed himself to grin as he snaked one arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him.

“The birthday girl’s wish is my command.”

Scrapped Himekawa Maki's parts in the dropped Hinode project.

So you know... I've said it before, with Kizuna showing the 02 group going well and being happy, I decided to drop this entire project because I was satisfied with what they had done there.

Though, I liked some parts of it and especially Himekawa Maki's "redemption" arc parts. Well, she wasn't totally "redeemed" -- Think about Ex-Aid's Dan Kuroto in this case. The idea was that she could help Daisuke and co. to solve this strange mystery connected to the parallel world from Lady of the Castle counterparts -- with them discovering that their world also had a counterpart for Pandora (the main villain of that series) and that those new villains were after said person.

Maki would just help with technical and analysis stuff -- but hey, why can't they just ask Koushiro? Well, this was ▽ compliant and the biggest traumatic experience from 2005 made Daisuke feel a little... out of himself. So he believed he was the culprit for all of the mess caused by the ▽ villains and forced himself to isolate from the others -- he would only keep contact with Ken, Miyako and Iori for some reason. No, he wasn't... angry with the other eight, but more with himself.

Anyway, here's the Maki's parts! I'll put the context for better understanding.

Ch 6 - Energetic Waves, Fauermon

It hadn’t been her end. She was pretty alive, but far away from her duties. Her partner, and by that meant her human partner, had been missing and possibly considered dead. Insanity had kept Himekawa Maki out of her job. “You… You’re not dead right?” She was glancing at a photo, her hands shaking but holding tight the portrait. “Tell me… You’re NOT dead…” She couldn’t believe in what they said to her. Not three years ago, not now. Maki was feeling an emptiness in her heart, the people she loved had left and she was alive. The Chosen Children had found her lost, after the events. Daisuke had yelled at her and had accused to tricking them. She had felt guilty… But learning that her partner had died… No, she hadn’t believed in those kids. All she had done caused that mess. It had been her fault. Once she had returned to the human world, her boss had forced her to retire. Maki hadn’t complained, and had left. Without Bakumon she had no power. BUT without Nishijima Daigo she felt incomplete. Now she was looking at that old photo of them, taken by the sweetest girl in the Chosen Children group, Kitabayashi Hitomi. “Call me.” Her eyes were fixated on the boy’s smile. “CALL ME…!!” If the price she had to pay for having Bakumon back meant Daigo’s death… … She shouldn’t have made a deal with Yggdrasil. “Himechan…!” - a voice called her, a feminine voice. The person opening the door was… “Daigo??” No, it was Hitomi. Visiting her from her day off. A woman -- with neck length black red hair and moon shaped glasses, wearing a black suit similar to the one Maki used to wear -- entered the room and frowned. “No, it’s just me.” Maki turned her head back to the photo.

Context: This was Maki's debut in the story, as well for Hitomi, who is the girl pictured in pt4 flashbacks. The one with Orochimon/Xuawumon as partner. You might remember her from this post here. Hitomi is a headcanon name for this girl.

Ch 7 - You never saw it coming

Ken was returning home when he received a message. Curiously, the Chosen of Kindness stopped nearby a store and checked his phone to see who sent him a text. He widened his eyes in shock about the sender. He didn’t expect THAT name to appear in a while, not when all of his troubles had started with her. But their exchange… What do you want? - Ichijouji I’ve been contacted by your friend, asking for my services - Himekawa I thought you had fun enough with us - Ichijouji My crimes had been paid with his death. I do not beg your pardon - Himekawa Which friend are you talking about? - Ichijouji Motomiya Daisuke, why do you ask? - Himekawa He would be the least person in this world to make a deal with you again - Ichijouji She got on Ken’s nerves. From all he had gathered about her, he couldn’t accept her help at all. Like, why would Daisuke contact her? My phone got a message from him, unless it’s a scammer - Himekawa Why did you contact me, then? - Ichijouji I need your digivice once again, to re-analyze it - Himekawa “What?!” - Ken almost broke his phone thanks to all the anger he felt - “Why would Daisuke want HER help??! Is he sane?! She was the one who tricked us in the first place!” You stole it from me to analyze it once, don’t you have the data with you? - Ichijouji The data is stored in the Bureau, and I was forced to be retired for a while - Himekawa … “Retired”? - Ichijouji You don’t need further details of my life, I’m asking for your cooperation this time - Himekawa How can I be sure you’re not going to fool us again? - Ichijouji I give you my word I won’t do anything against you or your friends - Himekawa Can he believe her?

Context: This is a follow up to the previous scene where Daisuke, Miyako, Hikari and Takeru discuss how to discover more about the digimon trying to murder Daisuke and how they can "freeze" the place during those attacks, blocking the digivice signal. Daisuke says "I can't believe I'm doing this, but we need her help this time." Note that he could've asked Koushiro, but he's still trying to not bother any of the older six and is still recovering from his own paranoiac episode. He will get better later, I promise!! But Ken is not very happy with that idea...

Not totally Maki-related, but here's the follow up of this scene with Hitomi:

A teacher had been observing Iori talking with a couple of kids and then left to talk on the phone. She, Kitabayashi Hitomi, was interested in whatever he was talking with… So she approached with caution to at least hear what he was saying. “I know, I need to pick Upamon and I can do it for you. No? Are you saying Daisuke-san contacted that woman?! Why didn’t he ask Ken-san for that information? Ah… I forgot about it… Ken-san suffered a memory loss once the Dark Seed stopped working.” He sighed, but proceeded: “No, I have nothing against her but… Is he sure we can trust her after all the things she has done to us? Is it even okay, because I do not want to remind him that she’s the one who sent us to the battlefield and probably encapsulated us once we were unconscious.” “The Chosen Children are trying to contact Himechan?” - Hitomi thought, but she decided to not call her boss. To be honest, she wanted to know more details… Perhaps asking Himechan by herself? “I see… He has some plan in mind” - Iori blinked in surprise - “I’m going to pick Upamon now, if you have more news please contact me immediately. See you there.” And he left the school. Not realizing Hitomi was around. “What would the children want with Himechan? Should I ask them?” - she wondered - “Maybe I should ask Himechan? I will keep my eyes on Hida-kun.”

In which you learn she's also an undercover teacher, but at Odaiba Jr. High School (aka Middle School) instead, as a Science teacher.

Ch 8 - Deals

If Daisuke said so, we can trust her… Not. That was what Ken thought, he was against that idea of asking Himekawa for help. But he had to, his memories about the Kaiser’s tricks and gimmicks never had returned. And knowing the Data Bureau wouldn’t let touch the analysis she did in the prior three years gave him no choices. The young kids met her after school, in her residence. There, the kids saw a few photos of Daigo, and some peculiar ones with them as children with a group formed by five kids and… five digimons?! But when… “Himekawa-san was one of the original Chosen Child” - Miyako explained to Takeru and Hikari - “That’s how she gained Daisuke’s trust.” “Why didn’t she tell us before?” - Hikari was in shock - “Does it mean Nishijima-san was one too?” “Yeah, he too” - Daisuke answered her - “I guess we know by the photos who were their digimon partners.” Most of them had Bakumon, some of them had the other digimon and their partners: A Muchomon with a chubby boy, a Guilmon for a sporty boy and a Kamemon for a girl with glasses. Daigo’s partner was a Bearmon and they were present in the group’s photo. Iori realized the girl with glasses looked like a teacher from Odaiba Junior High. Daisuke, Miyako, Hikari and Takeru too, since they had seen her when they attended the school three years ago. “Kitabayashi-sensei was a Chosen Child too?” - they said in unison. “Ah, you’re here” - Maki received them, and they glanced at her - “Oh…” - she realized they were looking at the photos - “I apologize for not telling you kids before, it was confidential information.” “Confidential?” - they repeated. “In the time we all were recruited, we were forced to not contact the new Chosen Children. Actually, the Data Bureau was only created after the incidents of August 1999 and we became the bridge connecting the human world and the Digital World. In other words, all our work was to represent the Bureau in front of Gennai-san and the Digital World’s deities. I also was the vessel for Homeostasis in the past, which means I got a higher position for being able to bring her to the human world for beforehand reunions.” “You were a vessel like Hikari-chan?!” - Takeru gasped. “I didn’t like it, because Homeostasis had betrayed me as a child. But that’s not storytelling time, Motomiya-kun said you kids needed my help.” “Ah yes, we were almost forgetting it!” - Daisuke then glanced at Ken - “Ken, please?” Ken wasn’t okay with that idea. “I don’t understand what you want to search on my digivice, Daisuke” - he answered - “Actually we’re trying to search for some way to discover what’s blocking our power when we’re… Dragged in a distorted reality.” “Hm…” - she was thoughtful. “That’s why we need to check your digivice, Ken!” - Daisuke insisted - “Because you had this power once… Because your digivice is the Digivice of Darkness, right?” “Yes, I agree” - the other nodded - “But it sounds like it’s my fault you’re unable to evolve your partners and I… I do not like to feel that I’m the issue.” “It’s not you, we know that! We want to know about the source of the dark powers. They must have something similar from your digivice…!” “I see…” - he hesitated, then he glared at Maki - “I will let you do your analysis, but I demand to keep an eye on you. Takeru-kun and Daisuke will stay at the door, Miyako-san and I will be with you. Hikari-san and Iori-kun will stay at the front door.” “Even if I wanted to do something harmful, I could’ve done once you all were here” - Maki replied calmly - “But if it would make you comfortable, then feel free to lock the front door and the windows so I can’t escape from them.” “She’s sassy like Ken-kun” - Miyako whispered to the others.

Context: You can clearly notice this is old because I used my own assumptions for the partners of the kids, that before ReArise game (suspiciously) released the playable Holy Beasts evoline in game, which also used the same digimon depicted in pt4. I had this funny idea of the leader of them all being not Daigo, but Qinglongmon's tamer -- So I made him be a Guilmon here.

Also this is the part I miss the most -- Because the funny clash of sass masters Ken and Maki lol. And yeah, this would be the part Maki just spills the beans about her, Daigo and Hitomi's connections with the digimon.

Ch 9 - Fire 'n' Ice

“I have the results, Please contact Motomiya-kun as soon as possible.” Why was she calling Ken? Why was she talking to him and telling him to give the news if she could do that by herself? Ken had no patience with her anymore, but he had to cooperate and be polite. She was older than him, more older than Osamu. But oh he hated her. Hated her voice and her mind. “I will, but could you tell me what you found in my digivice?” “Well, that’s supposed to be discussed with your group in the next meeting. I’m sure you would wait until then.” “I’m very curious about the results” - he was pretty irritated with her, but didn’t let it be noticed in his voice. He kept speaking calmly - “If you could give me some information by phone, I’d be thankful.” “I found an interesting mechanism in your device. Unique, different from the digivice of your friend Inoue. It’s able to generate Dark energy and Light energy, it seems it’s related to the World of Darkness, or as you kids call it, Dark Ocean.” “That we know already, it was how we sealed Daemon six years ago. I opened the gate to the Dark Ocean and sent him there.” “I found that plan stupid when I learned about the events.” “What did you expect us to have done?! Let him catch me?!” “You could’ve gathered your friends’ digimon and finished him. If you had Omegamon’s All Delete on your side--” “We couldn’t! Their digimon was out of energy to help us! We had no choice, so please avoid criticizing our decisions and give me details.” “Your digivice has some kind of shard, like a sand pebble, from the Dark Ocean. It’s not literal, there’s data from that world installed in your D-3.” “A program?” “Yes, what did you expect? It’s a program. If you could bring me some samples of this distorted reality, I could discover more about its functions.” “Um… I will tell Daisuke and the others about it, I’m sorry but I have to go.” “Anytime.”

Context: Still part of the sub-plot she was involved, by analyzing stuff and telling the children. Ken and her had this not-so-friendly relationship as well, because of the events of ▽ lol. Anyway, this was the last thing I wrote before dropping the entire story.

You can read a few redux version drabbles of the main part of the story (the ones related to Wallace, Dai-Lightnimon, the Digimental Weapons, and the evil guys of this dropped plot) on my AO3.

Hope you enjoyed it ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

There are too many parts of Yamato and Sora in the official novel. I never knew where to start, so after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to continue to publish it according to the plot. In Tokyo, the parts of Yamato and Sora have increased. This part is the same as that in TV version. There are some differences, so I will post them for comparison.

There are still some small easter eggs in the adventure in the early novels. After I update all the main plots, I will talk about the small easter eggs that only belong to Sorato.

the first part: https://at.tumblr.com/love-for-yamato-and-sora/in-fact-according-to-the-booklet-of-the-unsigned/81qlm4djfnre

the second part: https://at.tumblr.com/love-for-yamato-and-sora/digimon-adventure-official-novel/i5ctg94gtlny

the third part: https://at.tumblr.com/love-for-yamato-and-sora/i-will-then-post-the-official-novel-section-sora/su4ut9ay9hca

In TV version, Sora was arrested because he participated in extracurricular football activities, and then escaped from the place with the help of his mother and Mimi, and then met Taichi and said where Yamato and Hikari were,and then Sora Just meet Yamato.

“Sora, I need to talk to you.” She wasn’t expecting her mother to be home already. “Please don’t think that I’m saying something stupid, but… Could you tell me where you were this afternoon?” She saw Birdramon. Her mother’s tone of voice wasn’t accusatory. She spoke hesitantly, as though she was unsure and confused. That only made it harder for her to find a more ideal moment to talk to her mother about Piyomon. If I knew this was going to happen, then maybe I should have brought her in with me instead of telling her to come through the window. What would be the best way for her to tell her Mom what was going on without giving her too much of a shock? Sora thought about it, but immediately got overwhelmed. She got the sense that it would be best if she told her mother everything from the top, and then had Piyomon come in at the end to meet her. “Mom… It’s kind of a long story, but will you hear me out?” Piyomon was left spending more time waiting outside the window.

https://digitalscratch.pmsinfirm.org/7967#:~:text=%E2%80%9CSora%2C%20I%20need,outside%20the%20window.

The Bakemon atta cked them just when Sora had more or less described how they had gone to the Digital World, their adventures, and then had invited Piyomon to come into her room through the window. “Is this… Piyo-san?” “Pleased to meet you. I’m Piyomon.” Sora’s mother Yoshiko timidly stretched out her hand just as the door flew open behind her and Bakemon swarmed in. At first, Piyomon’s “Magical Fire” drove them back. But gradually, the number of Bakemon surging in was too great. Piyomon flew out of the window and evolved. “Piyomon, evolve! Birdramon!” The Bakemon closed in around them even as she evolved. Yoshiko pushed Sora towards the windows, then turned to face the Bakemon herself, pushing for time. “Run, Sora!” Sora clung to Birdramon’s legs, and when she turned around to look, Yoshiko was already surrounded by the Bakemon. There was no way to retrieve her from outside the window. “Mom! I’ll come back to save you, I promise!” As Yoshiko was dragged away, Sora thought that she saw her mother smile.

https://digitalscratch.pmsinfirm.org/7967#:~:text=The%20Bakemon%20attacked,her%20mother%20smile.

Hikari hid herself in its dark belly. Yamato, Gabumon, Yamato’s father Hiroaki, Sora, Piyomon, and Koushiro were also with her.

https://digitalscratch.pmsinfirm.org/7967#:~:text=Hikari%20hid%20herself%20in%20its%20dark%20belly.%20Yamato%2C%20Gabumon%2C%20Yamato%E2%80%99s%20father%20Hiroaki%2C%20Sora%2C%20Piyomon%2C%20and%20Koushiro%20were%20also%20with%20her.

Koushiro eluded the Bakemon wandering aimlessly around the area, and followed the reactions on his digivice to reach the construction site. In turn, Taichi left Big Sight. Tentomon went alone to check their surroundings. Piyomon and Gabumon needed to rest and recover the energy that was spent on their evolutions, so he was the only one capable of moving at the moment.

○

When Tentomon returned, he made his report. “I didn’t see anything that looked like an exit anywhere. The fog is so thick that no one can get through. However…” Tentomon pointed directly above him. “The fog up above is thin and I could see stars. It’s pretty high up, but we might be able to get through if I evolve to AtlurKabuterimon.” But it was also highly likely that Vamdemon would spot them along the way. “Satellite communication!” Yamato’s father, Hiroaki, murmured. “We might not be able to send regular radiowaves, but if we use satellite communication, it’s possible that we can communicate with the outside.” Naturally, Fuji TV had a facility for that. The possibility of it was low, but it was worth a try. Tentomon could evolve to Perfect level and force their way out after if they had to. Hiroaki, Koushiro, and Tentomon left the construction site and snuck into Fuji TV station.

The only ones left were Hikari, Sora, Piyomon, Yamato, and Gabumon. Somewhere in the background was the sound of water dripping. A wind gently lifted up one end of the cloths covering the building under construction. Without anyone noticing, two streaks of red lightning extended through that gap. They hit Gabumon and Piyomon directly. The wind rose into a gust, blowing the cloths wide open to reveal Vamdemon waiting for them outside.

https://digitalscratch.pmsinfirm.org/7967#:~:text=Koushiro%20eluded%20the,for%20them%20outside.

Because Zudomon was now evolved to Perfect level, Jou’s digivice unlocked the ability to detect his friends’ digivices and thus their locations. “If only I had this earlier, then I wouldn’t have had to make Takeru-kun and you two wait so much.” Jou laughed, but it didn’t work at relaxing everyone’s nerves. The digivice showed that three of their friends were in one spot, while the other three were off at a distance. “But this direction looks a little different from where we live…” Jou tilted his head in thought. The three closest dots didn’t look like they were at the condominiums, as he was expecting, but closer to Fuji TV station. Zudomon headed that way. As he did so, the three dots that were further away looked to be heading their way. One of the dots from the three closest to them broke off from the group. Jou didn’t know that the three dots at a distance were Taichi and Mimi, with Taichi holding Hikari’s digivice, while the one dot that separated was Koushiro. From the ocean, they saw a building in front of Fuji TV station that was under construction. They could see a dark, caped shape ascending from inside. “It’s Vamdemon,” Patamon said in a low voice. Luckily, Vamdemon had his back turned to them. Vamdemon disappeared at the top of Fuji TV station at the same time that Zudomon reached the shore. They also heard sounds of destruction inside the construction site. After Zudomon let Jou and the others off his back, he hurled off the cloths covering the building with one flick of his hammer. Yamato and Sora were inside. They were each holding Gabumon and Piyomon close to them. With them were a giant praying mantis, Snimon, and a dinosaur with two giant horns like those of a bull protruding out from its shoulders, Tuskmon. Snimon’s scythes easily cut through steel beams, and the power from Tuskmon’s charges could easily bulldoze Digimon of the same level. What’s more, Vamdemon’s earlier attack prevented Piyomon and Gabumon from moving, so they had no way of defending themselves. But for a Perfect level like Zudomon, they were no threat. “Hammer Spark!” Zudomon struck the Thor Hammer in his right hand at the closest steel beam. Sparks flew. The real power of Zudomon’s attack was neither from the hammer nor the destructive force that came from his arm strength. With one focused swing, the sparks that were created when both the Chrome Digizoid and his force of will combined could destroy the data composition of Digimon itself. The steel beams of the building stood in lines so close that Zudomon couldn’t slip through them, but the sparks became a dazzling striation that flew and hit Snimon and Tuskmon directly. The two of them were paralyzed, breaking down into particles in the next moment.

Yamato and Sora turned around slowly. Next to a large Digimon that they’ve never seen before was Jou, running towards them waving one arm. Takeru, Patamon, and Natsuko were there too. “Mom…” Yamato was dumbstruck. “Thank goodness we made it!” Jou said, beaming. It was Sora who recovered first. “Vamdemon has taken Hikari-chan!” Jou learned that he hadn’t made it.

https://digitalscratch.pmsinfirm.org/7967#:~:text=Because%20Zudomon%20was,hadn%E2%80%99t%20made%20it.

In the novel version, Sora's mother was arrested at home from the very beginning, Sora fled directly at home and joined Yamato directly.

Mimi became a person fighting and facing all these things, and then Taichi came and rescued Mimi. Then it was the same plot, all protecting Hikari, but it failed. So this part is different.

Inspired by this text post by @stoppingtosmelltheflowers, I thought I would write a little fic of Mimi imagining herself crushing over Takeru in the future. Please be nice, I literally wrote it in 2 hours last night T___T

Title: Perhaps Someday Characters: Takeru Takaishi and Mimi Tachikawa Pairings: Takeru/Mimi (Takimi? Mikeru?) and Koushiro/Mimi (Koumi) Word count: 2160

Excerpt (full text below the cut)

She focused her gaze on Takeru, cuing only now to the crick on her neck as she strained to keep eye contact with him. She never realized how tall he had gotten, his height surpassing that of Yamato.

“When did you get so tall?” she blurted out without thinking

Takeru’s brows furrowed in confusion, “Uhh…well…I guess everyone said I hit my growth spurt at 11…so maybe around that time?”

Mimi laughed in response. She studied him some more, noticing for the first time how soft his eyes were. It reminded her of warm silk. Strange, in all the years they spent together, she never noticed it. Perhaps because she was too busy remembering tiny eight-year-old Takeru to notice his height, or perhaps because she only associated Takeru as Yamato’s younger brother in all the years they spent together. His eyes were always Yamato’s eyes, his hair were always Yamato’s hair. She never saw them as his own…until now.

Perhaps Someday

The cobbled street beneath her feet might carry with it a certain charm, one unique to the rustic district she found herself in. But at this moment, underneath the hot sun with frazzled hair and frayed nerves, the heels of her new stiletto tripping over the bumpy sidewalk, she only had mind for frustration and ire, her mental energy cued into her discomfort like a lightning rod.

She didn’t know who to blame for this predicament. Perhaps if she needed to point a finger, she would turn it towards her hapless new boyfriend. Wicked smart and kind, but clueless and without a lick of fashion. But he was her clueless dork, and this was to be his first birthday with them together as a couple. She had everything planned, from the party to the outfit, crafting the perfect theme and sending out the most clever invite after spending months learning the intricacies of computer codes. Now, all she needed was a perfect birthday gift.

But, it was today that she learned how hard it was to shop for the Koushiro Izumi.

She spent days wandering the malls of Tokyo, and weeks searching the boundless confines of the internet. Yet, she was at a loss as to what to buy for him, a problem she, the queen of gift giving, was not accustomed to.

As she listed the possible gifts in her head, her heels caught a bump on the uneven pavement, and with a yelp, she tripped forward. If it wasn’t for the post beside her, she might have face planted on the hard ground, But somehow, perhaps through years of fighting and running away from dangerous digital monsters, her reflex kicked in and she managed to hook her arms around the nearby post and steady her posture.

She looked up and sighed in relief, and found herself facing a quaint bookstore. The sign at the front informed her it carried new and used books, and the display of cat sculptures intermingling with a village made of books drew her in.

After all, Koushiro was smart. And smart people like books. So…this could work. Right?

The moment she stepped inside, a strong scent of old books and cinnamon candles greeted her. She sighed as the cool air-conditioned interior caressed her sweaty skin, stirring within her an almost childlike delight.

Deeper into the quiet store she ventured. It was completely empty, she regarded with sadness. She hovered over a shelf of picture book, running her finger over the wrinkled spine of a faded cover, squinting hard to make out the title when a familiar voice called out her name.

“Mimi?”

She whipped herself around, and sure enough, standing before her was the familiar, smiling face of Yamato’s younger brother with a black fedora on his head.

“Oh, Takeru, what are you doing here?”

Takeru looked taken aback for a moment, but brushed it aside quickly with a wide smile, “Actually…I work here”

“Really? You work here?”

“Yes, I mean…I used to love coming here when I was younger so…it’s a natural fit. What are you doing here anyways, Mimi? I would never expect to find you here”

Her old frustration returned, pulling her lower lips out in a pronounced pout, “What is that supposed to mean? You don’t think I read?”

Takeru’s eyes widened, she could hear the panic in his voice as he struggled to rectify his words

“No no no…that’s not what I meant. I meant…I would imagine you at a much fancier bookstore, maybe that big one in Shibuya with a Starbucks”

“Oh…well…you know, this place has a certain charm,” she waved her arms around the store nonchalantly, swiveling her head to inspect the place, noticing for the first time the high ceilings and wooden furniture, the colour dark red, like mahogany wood. It reminded her of the bookcase she had in New York, the one she shelved with Japanese novels and books that reminded her of home, her attempt to preserve Odaiba in a foreign land. Suddenly, a wistful smile played across her lips.

“Can I help you find something, Mimi?”

“Oh, actually…”

She focused her gaze on Takeru, cuing only now to the crick on her neck as she strained to keep eye contact with him. She never noticed how tall he had gotten, his height surpassing that of Yamato.

“When did you get so tall?” she blurted out without thinking

Takeru’s brows furrowed in confusion, “Uhh…well…I guess everyone said I hit my growth spurt at 11…so maybe around that time?”

“Uhh…Mimi, are you okay?”

Mimi cleared her throat and turned away from him quickly, pretending to be absorbed in the books before her to ignore the captivating shine in his eyes.

“Of course, I am. Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Well…for a moment there, I thought…never mind”

He rattled out a light laugh, then bent forward and pulled out a picture book from the shelf.

“Perhaps you’ll like this one, Mimi”

Mimi accepted the offering with somewhat flushed cheeks. She looked down at the cover and gasped, her inside danced with recognition as she basked in its familiarity.

“Goodnight Moon. Ohhhh I used to love this book as a kid, my mom would read it to me every night before bed, then I would read it to her. It was my way of staying up as late as I can to…”

“...to wait for your dad to come home”

The book dropped from Mimi’s hand, she jerked her head towards Takeru, mouth agape with shock, “How did you know?”

Takeru blushed and shuffled his feet

“I overheard the story a long time ago…while you were talking to Sora one day”

“What story? When? Where? Are you eavesdropping on our conversations, Takeru?”

“No…it’s not like that. This was back when we were younger, when we were lost in the Digital World. At the time, I would sit still and listen as you guys talked amongst yourself because…I guess you all assumed I was too young to be included”

Mimi’s eyes softened. She bent down and picked up the book, then clutched it against her chest as she looked Takeru up and down.

“Oh Takeru…that’s not true”

“Ah it’s okay, I understand. I think I would have done the same if I was Yamato and his friends, I was just some crybaby kid tagging along for the ride”

He took his hat off and combed his fingers through his hair. It was a lot longer than she expected it to be. Strangely, she found it much more mesmerizing than Yamato’s, with thick blonde locks that appeared almost unruly. Unpredictable and spontaneous, just like him.

Her heart hummed with a familiar excitement, while butterflies fluttered in her stomach.

No, it couldn’t be.

This was Takeru. Yamato’s little brother. That tiny kid they had to tow around and protect while they fought monsters and enemies in another dimension.

She can’t be crushing on him.

Could she?

Takeru placed the hat back on his head and flashed his brilliant smile. She never noticed how warm it was, and with his golden hair and magnetic presence, he could be mistaken for the goddamn sun. And Mimi found herself powerless to its glow.

Perhaps maybe…just maybe she was crushing on the Takeru Takaishi.

“By the way, Mimi, what were you looking for?”

What? What was she looking for?

Then reality descended on her, and the blush across her cheeks dissipated as she remembered her clueless dork. The butterflies in her stomach became heavy guilt that plunged in her soul

“Oh right! I’ve been looking…I was hoping I could…well…I need to find a present for Koushiro”

“Koushiro? Right, his birthday is coming up! Clever invitation for his party, by the way. It really looks like computer coding! It took me forever to figure out what it said”

He turned and walked down the aisle, his hand beckoning her to follow him.

“I was saving this as my gift for him, but I think it would be better if it’s from you”

He handed her another picture book, this one was in much better condition than the copy of Goodnight Moon in her hand, but the cover just as colourful and vibrant

“Horton Hears a Who?”

“It’s the book his mother read to him when he was younger. Plus, I think there’s a clever parallel in there somewhere, Horton discovering the secrets to an unknown world the same way Koushiro is discovering the secrets to the Digital World as a researcher”

Mimi flashed a grateful smile and flipped through the pages, her enraptured eyes catching words here and there amongst the cartoonish illustration.

“Thanks, Takeru. I didn’t even know…are you sure…? I mean, it’s your gift”

“Sure I’m sure. After all, you are his girlfriend, Mimi. I was worried it would be too sentimental for me to give to him. It might come off as weird”

“So…what will you give him?”

Takeru’s lips spread to a roguish grin, he then led Mimi down more shelf-lined corridors before he settled on the self-help section. He pulled out a thick paperback volume with a yellow cover. Mimi took one look at it and broke down laughing.

“Fashion Sense for Dummies,” Takeru read the title, “Although…it might be more of a gift to you than to him”

“Hey watch it,” Mimi cried out. She shoved him playfully, as if she was teasing her crush in the schoolyard, back when she was young enough to have crushes, “That’s my boyfriend you’re talking about”

Takeru shrugged and pushed the book back on the shelf, a teasing smile on his lips

“But I made you laugh, didn’t I?” he noted with a sly wink

Mimi shook her head and sighed, although she had to admit, she was working extra hard to force the smile away from her lips. She knew Takeru was impish, his witty brain capable of conjuring up the perfect comeback to any statement. But still, she didn’t know he was this funny. She couldn’t remember the last time she laughed this hard.

Perhaps…just perhaps…she was crushing on Takeru. The type of crush that had her high on euphoria, twirling her hair as she dangled her feet in the air, gossipping and laughing with her friend over the phone as they divulged every tiny detail about their new crush of the week.

Stranger things have happened.

“Hey Takeru, how old are you now?”

“I’m 18”

“18?” She took a step back and scrunched her face.

It might be the height and the calm tone of his sturdy voice, but he was a lot younger than she thought he’d be. An unsettling ick took over her bones, berating her for daring to cross that line with someone so young. She looked back at Takeru moving books on the shelves, and all of a sudden, the illusion dropped, the sun went back behind the cloud, and she found herself looking at Yamato’s younger brother again.

“But I’ll be turning 19 soon,” he added as he looked back at her with his smile.

“Right,” Mimi mumbled in response. He was 18 turning 19, she just turned 21. The age gap wasn’t too crazy, all things considered, even if the idea of her crushing on a younger guy was a little disconcerting.

“Anyways, let me cash you out,” Takeru continued, “Unless you changed your mind about the books”

Mimi blinked, clearing her throat to force herself back to reality

“I will take them,” Mimi informed him with her own dazzling smile, “Thanks so much, Takeru, for your help, for today”

“Anything for you, Mimi”

Charming, Mimi thought. He certainly embodied a certain charm.

Perhaps now wasn’t the best time. She was still too self-conscious about their age gap, too bothered by his younger status to allow herself to commit to the crush. There was also Koushiro, who was her clueless dork, the man she wanted to commit herself to. She’d rather devote her energy to building up their relationship before daydreaming about silly potential crushes.

Perhaps someday, when they were old enough that age gap no longer mattered. Perhaps someday, when she felt secure enough in her relationship with Koushiro to dapple in crushes and daydreams here and there.

Perhaps someday, just not today. But for today, she was certain of one thing. In her eyes, Takeru was no longer Yamato’s little brother.

In her eyes, Takeru could now hold his own.

(under read more)

Testing what happens when I intentionally stylize* the text on the Koushiro + Motimon set so it stops giving people using img search "key words".

But normally I'm confused how multiple fannish involved ppl (including ppl with A.O.3.s) finding these could NOT realize they're from a monster raising series that clearly Isnt P.k.m.n.

Especially when I search their page and find out they rbd Adventures and or 02 stuff before or are at least aware of the U.S. "movie" ver. if not the series as a whole.

That particular img got stolen like x3 times by now so I'm pretty ticked off, because I originally made it for an Aut!Koushiro H.C. idea, which is going completely ignored when ppl steal them to yell about their cat/neighbors/E u r o v i s i o n ppl being "loud" or whomever.

So yeah.

*Yes I know stylizing text can interfere with screen reader stuff and I'm also going to test putting more things under 'read more' now that more time has passed, so please be patient, as I'm still working on that too.

-- But then multiple people (including quite a few{?} around for 5~10+ years, for some Strange Unknown Reason{s}?) don't actually read under the 'read more' to find out what my img usage rules are. So.

(Yeah, testing multiple things for now.)

Friends?

Oneshoot about an unwanted night out.

I just got the inspiration to create the first English fanfic and it is also the first about Mimato! I haven't been writing for a long time but I decided to give it a try again. I believe the text is not clear enough and I still need to go back to read more to broaden my vocabulary. Still, I decided to post because in a way it needed to get out kk Although it works as a oneshoot I have ideas to continue as a long fic too. Let's see. The story is basically an amalgamation of my favorite Mimato headcanons. Hope you like it.

Mimi and Yamara were never friends.

Of course, they are part of the same friend group which by association made them friends, but...

They're not really friends.

They exchanged some words and smirked with a bit of disdain when Taichi did some nonsense. They also agreed - perhaps more than they had realized - when a heated discussion happened between the group, nonetheless there was a degree of discomfort between them—a lack of closeness.

They didn't know quite well how to explain it. At first, one might think it was due to the incompatibility of their personalities. However, some of Mimi and Yamato's best friends had an opposite nature to theirs too. Koushiro, an introvert, and Mimi, a classic extrovert, could easily open up with each other. The same applied to Yamato and Taichi, who fought a lot but could always understand one another.

No, it wasn't because of their personalities.

It might have missed to them a few moments alone to be able to develop a connection. It was usual to form more intimate sub-relationships in a large group, and sometimes one person could not often interact with another. Taichi and Joe were an example of this, and despite Koushiro and Sora having somewhat similar personalities – aka excessive protection with a certain someone – they weren't the closest either.

Mimi and Yamato's relationship, on the other hand, was more complex than an unplanned disconnection. Both actively tried to avoid each other, and they could feel a certain hostility in the air. Their one-to-one interactions often resulted in small bickerings, and a pet peeve grew as the years went by. Their friends usually laughed off, but they feared that those little fights could become real deep down. It seemed they were in the Cold War, and a bomb was about to explode.

Until Mimi and Yamato found themselves staring at each other in a random bar.

And worst than that: They're entirely alone after years.

CONTINUE HERE

ps: waiting to post in AO3 too as soon as they let me in lol

A little treat for @himetsundere since she wanted to see some Mimato writing from me set in the Kizuna timeline.

For detailed notes on this little fic, refer to this post!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just landed.

Once the delivered receipt appeared under the text that she had just sent, Mimi smiled and turned off the screen of her phone and slipped it in o her dress pocket. The group chat had been buzzing relentlessly since the past few days with the sudden increase in Digimon related incidents, and she was glad that her schedule allowed her to be back in Tokyo, as she wanted to help out with the problems as much as she could. Even if she did always skip through Koushiro’s lengthy explanatory messages and waited for Miyako to send her a tl;dr on the side.

Mimi readjusted the strap of her pink and white striped shopper on her shoulder and lined up in the immigration queue, knowing well that her message would get lost in the thread of all the Digimon related updates and there was no point in expecting a response. Once all the entry procedures were finished and she could finally make her way to the arrival lobby, she felt her phone vibrate strongly, not once but twice. Curious, she pulled it out of her pocket with ease, having no luggage to look after except her big handbag, and wasn’t surprised to find a message from Sora.

Welcome back. Come see me soon, Mimi chan.

She swiftly typed up her reply, letting her friend know the days she had set aside for catching up with her. Once she exited the chat screen, the next message she had received almost made her trip on her feet out of surprise. At the top of the chat screen was Yamato’s name, with a red bubble indicating that she had two unread messages from him. It was odd because the blond wasn’t much of a texter and the two usually stayed in touch through emails, and even more so because when she had recently announced her plan to come back to Japan on the group, he had been the first one to move on from the topic and onto discussing the Digimon incidents.

Nevertheless, she still tapped on his name and read the message.

Still at the Airport?

Stay there.

The messages had been sent within an interval of one minute and only confused Mimi further. Since she had already opened the chat, she decided to let him know that yes, she was still at the Airport and was just heading to catch the Monorail home. Within seconds of her text being delivered, Yamato responded with how he was waiting at the station platform, describing his location in detail so she would be able to find him easily. It was a good thing that her feet remembered where to take her since she travelled so frequently, because her mind was completely preoccupied by the fact that Yamato had offered to receive her at the Airport.

His detailed explanation of where he was at the platform was obviously unneeded, as his golden hair and the untucked grey shirt he had donned made him the odd one among the other few well suited salarymen waiting at the platform. They spotted each other at the same time, their eyes locking as Mimi got off the escalator, and in unison they raised a free hand in an awkward wave. She noticed Gabumon peeking from behind Yamato’s legs and greeted him too as she reached the pair, before calling out Palmon from the digital space so the two digimon could catch up with each other, same as their partners.

“Your luggage?” Yamato asked right off the bat, craning his neck to look behind her to see if she was hiding a suitcase or two in thin air.

“I believe in travelling light.” Mimi responded, smiling at how Palmon and Gabumon had already moved on to the topic of delicious food the two had eaten recently.

“Wouldn’t have guessed that.”

Yamato raised an eyebrow in dull surprise, but before she could come up with an appropriate reply, the train rushed into the platform silencing their little group as they queued up to enter. Luckily they were able to find seats in an empty compartment, it was midday after all Mimi thought, most people would be at work, one of the reasons she always picked this time to land, a relaxing commute home was a must after a long flight. Gabumon and Palmon sat, or more like stood, on the seat opposite to hers and Yamato so they could watch the scenery once the train exited above ground, and once they were all settled comfortably, Mimi turned her head to narrow her eyes at the blond.

“I’m a minimalist when it comes to packing for business trips, essentials only,” she said, folding her arms across her chest.

A smirk graced the blond tired face as he tilted her head towards her, “I have a very distinct memory of someone showing up to summer camp with two large pink suitcases.”

“I was ten back then,” Mimi retorted, huffing at him. “Every girl travels like a princess at that age.”

“A delusional princess?”

She punched his arm lightly and he chuckled, the sound of his light laugh filled the compartment and Mimi noticed that they were under Gabumon’s watchful gaze, or rather Yamato was, making her feel curious about the reason the two had shown up at the Airport in the first place. But their solitude could only last so long, as once the train was above ground and a few stations in, more people started to get on. The two digimon had no choice but to return to their partners and settle themselves on their laps.

Mimi closed her eyes for a brief moment and nostalgia crashed down on her like a ferocious current. It was almost as if she had lived this moment before, Palmon snuggled in her lap, Yamato’s knees brushing against her own with the train swaying slightly as it curved for a turn. The only new sensation was that of Gabumon’s fur pressing against her bare arms, leaving a warm and tingling sensation across her skin and the fresh smell of mint that accompanied Yamato’s serene presence next to her. She felt so calm and peaceful that her eyes begin to droop on their own, her body telling her that now was the perfect time to recover from the weariness of the long flight, that she would be safe if she allowed herself to close her eyes now, that there was someone watching over her with diligence.

However, Mimi managed to collect herself and not give into the strong desire of wanting to take a nap. She watched Yamato from the corner of her eye, wondering if he too had dozed off, but found him sitting with his azure eyes wide open, staring blankly ahead of him, his face lacking any emotion making it difficult for her to understand if he was upset or angry, or just simply himself. His jaw was set strongly though, and his eyes stayed fixed on a random spot in front of him, as if inside his head he was debating over which emotion should be allowed to grace his features. Gabumon was watching him intently as well, the hint of worry in the furry creature’s piercing red eyes giving Mimi all the clues she needed to figure out just what had gotten Yamato to this point.

“That bad, huh?”

The words slipped from her mouth and she bit her tongue as Yamato turned to look at her with widened eyes. He held her gaze for a minute before he let out a tired sighed and leaned back in his seat, running his hands through his hair first before letting them rest on his forehead. It seemed as if he was trying to debate just how much information he needed to share with Mimi, before he eventually began to narrate the details.

Yamato shared with her in a low voice how the chosen children across the globe were being targeted this time, with the human partner losing consciousness and the digimon partner disappearing without a trace. He told her how he and Taichi had witnessed a girl fainting without any cause just last night, and that Koushiro had confirmed that he had lost all contact with many close friends of theirs recently. They had narrowed down the digimon that seemed to be causing this mess, but it wasn’t an easy victory and the evolution of their digimon had been affected to some extent as well.

It was obvious to Mimi from the way Gabumon’s ears kept perking up and down, and the vague way in which Yamato ended some of his statements, that he had not given her the full truth. Maybe he was waiting for Koushiro to send a detailed report to all of them later, or maybe there was another layer to the problem that the blond hadn’t` managed to come to terms with yet. Either way, Mimi understood exactly why he was on edge and why he had shown up at the Airport out of the blue. Yamato had always been the type to care deeply for his friends, even if he articulated it with aggression sometimes, knowing that chosen children were being targeted he probably just wanted to make sure that she was doing okay and would get home safe, and realising this made Mimi feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside with a natural smile appearing on her face.

Even if he had kept her in the dark with some of the details, Mimi still felt the need to repay him for showing consideration towards her safety, in his own tsundere way.

“You don’t seem too confident about this,” she said, after he had finished filling her in.

“It’s quite unlike anything we have faced before.” Yamato nodded, he didn’t admit his lack of confidence every day and that enough was a sign that much more dire things were coming their way.

“Isn’t that how it is every time?” Mimi chuckled lightly. Yamato frowned at her, possibly annoyed that she was able to laugh this over but Mimi took no heed of it and continued, “Koushiro always does his research and gives us the logical options available, while Jou senpai manages to overthink even the most easiest of solutions. But in the end, we always follow whatever Taichi san and you decide, and so far we’ve managed quite well for ourselves, don’t you agree?”

“Yes, but it-”

“Follow your instincts Yamato san.” Mimi locked eyes with him, her voice firm and her gaze determined, “They have never led us astray.”

He looked like he could still argue with her but he chose to stay silent, contemplating over her words for the rest of their ride.

When it was time for Mimi to change trains she assumed that the two would part ways, but Yamato silently followed her all the way out of the train station closest to her home. Once her parents’ apartment building came into view, she stopped in her tracks and smiled at him.

“I’ll be fine from here.”

“I know but…” He trailed off, avoiding her gaze as he looked at the ground, his hand unconsciously moving to pat Gabumon’s head.

“My father would be more worried about seeing you drop me home, rather than a digimon knocking me unconscious,” Mimi grinned, pleased with herself over how she finally managed to bring a small smile to Yamato’s face.

“I cannot argue with that.” He nodded, his blue eyes shining like a gem against the sky painted orange by the setting sun.

She assured him twice, that she would be safe and take care of herself and not allow herself to fall victim to the onslaught on chosen children, before bidding him goodbye. Even as she turned on her heels and made her way towards her parents house dreaming of a long bubble bath and home cooked food, she knew that Yamato still stood with Gabumon watching her, and allowed her heart to skip a beat.

Being the centre of Yamato’s concern was starting to seem more fun than she had expected.

Once she had relaxed at home with a long bath and dinner with her parents, she snuggled into bed with Palmon and decided that the two of them would get done with the warehouse work as quickly as possible tomorrow and head to Koushiro’s office so they could help out in the fight against this new threat. As she finally allowed herself to drift off to sleep with a smile still playing on her lips, Mimi had no idea about the nightmare that awaited her the next day.
