ok, (Same anon btw) if I could request some, digimon adventure 02 TK age regressor headcanons then?
Oh sure, here are some regressor!TK headcanons for you 😊
- I think TK's regression would partly stem from his parents divorce, and because of that his little age would be pretty young, around 0-5
- TK is more nonverbal as a little, and he looooves playing with blocks, legos, playdough, pretty much anything he can build with really
- While in little space TK is a little clingy, longing for the feeling of being apart of a big and loving family
- Patamon finds out first naturally, and while (being a Digimon) he doesn't fully understand it, he is very accepting, and honestly loves having TK be like a little kid again, and while he loves just playing with him, when TK needs a Caregiver, he happily Digivolves into Angemon to look after him
- Kari finds out shortly after Patamon, she kinda suspects something's up, and TK slips a little around her once accidentally, and she quickly picks up on it... Because she's also a little!
- Angemon and Angewomon look after both of them during their regressed play dates, which makes little TK very happy, they feel just like a real family!
- Matt quickly figures out that somethings up when he notices TK being secretive and when he sees how defensive TK gets when he tries to pry. This puts a strain on their relationship for a time... Until Kari convinces TK to tell Matt the truth. Matt is a little confused at first, not being familiar with age regression but... After doing some research he very quickly comes around and he ends up loving being a big brother to little TK! Matt spoils little TK so much (maybe too much...) and the bond between the two grows even stronger.
I hope you enjoyed these headcanons 😊❤

Takeru "T.K." Takaishi of Digimon Adventures
Affiliated with Isola Radiale, written by Kal.
[ APP ] [ STATS ] [ THREAD TRACKER ]
Takeru "T.K." Takaishi is one of the Chosen Children, or Digidestined, from the Digimon Adventures series! He possesses the Crest of Hope.
tries to act like he's always got his shit together. he really doesn't.
has a whole truck load of Issues (TM). he is working on them though. it's a slow uphill battle.
loves his friends! he will literally throw hands at the drop of a hat for them.
patamon is his precious baby darling boy. his little criminal who will always be forgiven of all crimes. he will literally rather kill everyone in a room and then himself before letting anything happen to his partner ever again.
meta moment! tk's actually the in-world author of the digimon adventures series, which doesn't get published until 2028; writing the in-world novel/s is something he's already starting on, and is his method of gaining some catharsis over all the crazy (and traumatic) shit the Chosen went through.

highchoolers (and iori)
#thoughts: miyako and daisuke are chronic dresscode violators. miyako isnt allowed to wear a bandana or as many accessories as she does#daisuke usually wears tshirts instead of the button up and gets in constant trouble because of it#takeru's look is the most ordinary out of all of them because hes just happy to be here. usually unbuttons the blazer out of dysphoria tho#iori and ken go to different schools so they arent as accessible but they hang out very regularly#iori especially needs to be included because he's like. the universal little brother and feels abandoned easily#ken and hikari get really close in their hs years since they both struggle with depression and vent to eachother often#lastly i picked that iori screenshot to redraw cause it was cute he still retains his autistic flat expressiveness#.png#chock full of headcanons idgaf . transfem daisuke#digimon#digimon adventure#daisuke motomiya#davis motomiya#iori hida#cody hida#takeru takaishi#tk takaishi#hikari yagami#kari kamiya#miyako inoue#yolei inoue#sorey ken . next time

Honeysuckle- Yamato “Matt” Ishida x Reader
[gif by ydotome]
Title: Honeysuckle
Genre: Friends to Lovers, Fluff, Rom-com elements, Mutual Pinning
Warning(s): Cussing, slight adult themes, mentions of past trauma and parental issues/divorces, SPOILERS FOR DIGIMON TRI AND DIGIMON: LAST EVOLUTION KIZUNA, implied smut in the last part oOP, everyone is of age (ASIDE FROM IORI AKA CODY BC HE’S 17) bc this takes place in Last Evolution Kizuna, two idiots realizing their feelings for each other in the long run
Pairings: Mimi Tachikawa/Koushiro ‘Izzy’ Izumi, Sora Takenouchi/Taichi ‘Tai’ Yagami, Ken Ichijouji /Miyako ‘Yolei’ Inoue, Yamato ‘Matt’ Ishida/Reader, Hikari Yagami/Takeru ‘TK’ Takaishi, mentions of Mimi Tachikawa/OC, Meiko Mochizuki/OC and mentions of Yamato ‘Matt’ Ishida/Sora Takenouchi
Description: This is my first time writing for one of my childhood fandoms, Digimon. I used to write this silly fanfic of Digimon Frontier back when Quizilla was a thing when I was about 10 or 11 called Cherry Blossom Moonlight (*GAGS*) but yeah it’s my first time writing for our OG resident lone wolf, Yamato ‘Matt’ Ishida and all that jazz after watching Last Evolution Kizuna. So yeah! This is based and inspired by me ranting my feelings about Matt to @aeonghaseyo on FB and my best friend, Lucy along with this particular Lux Botanicals body wash we have LMAO. This would be a four-part ficlet that’s going to be like a drabble and all but yeah, I hope you guys enjoy it! P.S. (Y/N) is your name, (D/P) is your digimon partner!
I- Can’t Sleep Love
Out of the Digi-destined, you were never the type to call up people in the dead of night, especially if all of your other friends were busy with their own lives so why the hell did you think calling up at least 5 or more of them to your house at midnight? Usually, you would’ve called at least one or two of them if they were free or shoot them a text out of the group chat’s reach, write about it on your journal or let alone talk to your Digimon partner about it but you were pretty sure that they were starting to get tired of it despite their instances that it was fine. But after writing down what you feel in your journal just as you had considered doing so, you caved in and you were lucky that all of them were free.
So now here you were, sitting inside your house’s dining room in nothing but a shirt that says ‘Know Your Worth’ and a pair of navy blue yoga pants and a pink cat headband on your head to keep your hair from sticking to the charcoal peel-off mask you had on your face. It was embarrassing really, calling up at least 6 of your closest friends at this time of night just to talk about the group’s resident lone wolf, Yamato ‘Matt’ Ishida, and your feelings towards the said male. In all honesty, you and Matt had been friends since your trip to the digital world, although the two of you shared some similarities, you were still different like day and night, you could’ve said both of you were like fire and ice but that’s more on with him and Taichi. Out of all of the chosen kids within your circle, the only ones who knew of your harbored feelings towards the elder of the Ishida-Takaishi siblings happened to be Mimi, Miyako, Taichi, Meiko, Izzy, Willis, and by extension, Ken because of his girlfriend, Miyako and finally, TK (Honestly, the kid was the first to know among you all and he would often tease you about your not so little crush on his older brother and it was even more of a pain in the ass about it when he got older? At least you got back at him when you found out that he has a crush on Kari. The kid thought he could escape, huh?)
Taking a deep breath, you then faced your friends, all of them eager and curious about what you have to say as you finally spoke, “I know that this is unexpected for me to call you guys over on such short notice and I know that some of you are busy with your own lives and all.” The moment you had said that your eyes seemed to land on both Mimi and Izzy, the busiest ones out of the bunch before continuing, “But I just really need to talk to someone about well….” Unable to find the right words, your partner quipped in from beside you, munching on the pack of Fita Crackers both of you were sharing before the arrival of your friends, “About your feelings towards Matt.” To which you sent a glare towards your smug-looking Digimon partner, your friends sweatdropping at this before you continued to speak, “Just as (D/P) had said, yes, it’s about him.” Reaching over to the pack of chips Wallace had brought, you let your eyes wander over to where all of your Digimon partners were, munching down on their snacks and talking with each other, letting out a sigh.
“I know I have other things to worry about such as college and my future and all of those other things, I just had to get this out of my system. I’ve been crushing on Matt for years and you all know that and it’s just… I have a lot of feelings and I just can’t seem to word them right, especially when it comes to him! Every time I try to express how I feel about him, I feel something weird in my chest. It’s the 'I can't explain this shit right' type of weird and it just frustrates me to no end! Like I will admit that I’m happy that he ended up with Sora.” At the mere mention of Sora and Matt’s relationship, both Ken and Izzy wanted to say something but both of their girlfriends had given them the look of ‘no, let (Y/N) figure it out by themselves.’ Honestly, you thought that it was weird but you simply brushed it off by popping another chip in your mouth. “It’s just….this sense of longing you know like almost as if we missed out or something and it makes me wanna go like…”
��Like real-life keyboard smashing?” Miyako spoke, brow raised in slight amusement at your current situation as you nodded, popping another chip into your mouth, “I mean I want to be with him but not in a sense that I want to sleep with him and ruin two of my long-running friendships with both Sora and Matt in one go the moment I come clean about my feelings!”
“It sounds like you’re going through a crisis….” Willis spoke out, holding Lopmon in his arms while Terriermon situated themselves upon your arms, much to your surprise as Izzy spoke, “I don’t see this as a ‘crisis’ of the sort. Plus I don’t think you’d be ruining any friendships at all! What I’m trying to say here, (Y/N)-senpai is that I think you should try and talk to him first but be subtle about it and not go in guns blazing. Plus there’s a study that says that most romantic relationships start as friendships! Just look at Mimi and I or even Ken and Miyako.”
“Easier said than done, Izzy.” You groaned, hand nearly flying to your cheek before realizing that you had a peel-off mask on, making you wrinkle your nose in slight annoyance as you pouted. “You guys had it easy because you didn’t have to worry about hurting anyone else’s feelings.” “That’s where you’re wrong, dummy!” Mimi spoke, reaching over to playfully tap you on the head as she continued, “Before Izzy and I became a thing, I was worried about hurting Emiko and ruining my friendship with her but after the three of us talked it out, we’re still friends and she’s okay with me dating Izzy here! “ After that brief story Mimi had told you, you recalled her dating Emiko, who happened to be a part of your little group and possessed the Crest of Loyalty and was paired with Elecmon. She and Mimi dated for 5 years but due to their packed schedules (Mimi running her own business and Emiko being a famous musician who constantly travels with Elecmon and takes up modeling and acting gigs as a side-line) and everything in between, it was safe to say that the both of them had ended their relationship on a good note and if you recall correctly, she and Meiko were dating now. “But still! It’s kind of different, alright? Plus the last time I had spoken to him and had seen him face to face was the time both of us were like 17!” This seemed to shock everyone, especially Mimi and Izzy as all of them spoke all at once, their questions mixed in a flurry of questions regarding your connection with Matt. Well…It was mostly Mimi, Wallace, and Miyako who did the questioning rather than all 6 of them.
“Five whole years!?! But the two of you are close!” “How about face-timing each other??? Or even DM’ing each other?” “Not even a single call or text or even a letter?!” Hearing all of them come at you all at once with these questions made you feel a little bit uneasy and perhaps even on edge, the only time they did stop was when they saw you clenching and unclenching your fists before holding a finger up as you spoke, “First off, we only talk in quick lapses and small ‘how are yous’ because we’ve been respectively busy with other things such as keeping our respective home bases safe from unwanted Digimon attacks. Both (D/P) and I have been keeping the damage on the down-low whenever there’s an attack and Izzy knows about this.” The aforementioned redhead nodded at this as he spoke, “That’s true, you’d be surprised at how many Digimons appear in (Y/N)’s home-turf now and then!” “I’m just lucky that I got a free week this time around and that I have nothing else to do. I mean I’d be in college right now but since I didn’t get accepted into the college I wanted to go to, I’ve decided to take a year off and then try again next year but that’s not our main topic here right now! The main topic is about how Matt and I went on for five years without seeing each other or let alone having an actual full-blown conversation with each other.” You spoke with a wave of dismissal as the rest of your friends listened to your final statement. You had been talking for at least an hour or so, at first, it was a small catch up on how things are going on with them and yourself included other stuff like hobbies and all that and somehow it came down to talking about the main reason why you called them up in the first place.
Standing up to head over to the bathroom to peel off the dry mask off of your skin you continued to speak, your voice echoing from the open bathroom door and towards your friend’s ears, occasionally wincing all the while as you peeled off the mask, “Not to mention, he’s busy with college. The last time I heard from him was when he told me about how he wasn’t sure about what he wants to do with his life.” You could hear one of the chairs move backward, indicating that one of your friends had stood up while you were preoccupied with the remains of the black peel-off mask. When your eyes had met the mirror once more, Miyako was the one to stand right behind you, arms folded over her chest, brow raised, and lip quirked upwards in a questioning manner as she spoke, “And when did this conversation take place?” Turning around to face her, you then reached over to the towelette that hung on the rack that was near the door, patting your face dry with it as you thought, exactly how long was it since then? “Uh….a month ago at least??? Why?”
Placing a hand upon your shoulder, the younger lilac-haired female stared directly right into your eyes as she spoke, “(Y/N)-san, you’re like family to me but PLEASE just talk to him. It’s as simple as that but like Koushiro-senpai had just said, just don’t go in guns blazing.” “I-I’ll think about it, okay? For now….”
It had been an hour since your friends had left and now here you were, wide awake with an arm thrown across your forehead in a debilitating manner, nose scrunched up and lips pulled into a tight huff as you thought about what your friends had told you moments ago. They made a point, sure, but what they didn’t know was that you had been constantly texting Matt for the past few months, in hopes he would get the chance to read it, and sure, he did but he never responded and that was enough for you cease your texting because you were getting worried that you were probably distracting him from his studies and whatnot. So what do you do when you start to miss him? You scroll through your phone and re-read some of your old chats together, scroll through your gallery to look at some of the old photos and videos of the two of you together during your high school days. Most of these videos were taken by your Digimon partner, Gabumon, or anyone from the group and such. But out of all of the videos you’ve taken, the one you cherish the most was the one that you had taken during his 14th birthday. It was your first time seeing Odaiba without any Digimon attacking and you marveled at the scenery before you, both you and Matt venturing around the city and it was also the first time you had witnessed him perform live on stage with his band during the time and you’ve supported him in his endeavors ever since but you also made sure to knock some sense into him whenever you got the chance, this was also the time he had first taught you how to play your guitar as well and the time you had realized that you weren’t crushing on him anymore, no. You were in love and you fell for Matt, hard.
Snapping yourself back into reality, you then cast your phone aside to your bedside table, hands flying over to your face, you then groaned a little bit loudly, enough to wake your slumbering partner right beside you, which of course, effectively woke them up, their eyes half-lidded and sleep ridden as they spoke, a little bit bluntly, “Y’know, it wouldn’t kill you to just talk to him, (Y/N). Mimi, Miyako, and the others are right, just talk to him. It would do everyone some good and please get some sleep instead of reminiscing at hours such as these.” Turning around to look at your partner, you finally caved in and heaved a deep sigh, expression softening as you spoke, “You guys win. I’ll talk to him.”
At this point, your partner looked as if they were completely done with your bullshit and had reached over to bonk you on the head as they spoke, “Not through text, genius. Give him a call and don’t be awkward.” “Ow! Fine, I’ll do it, happy?” You responded, holding your head a pout on your face as your digimon partner yawned, turning over to their side, snuggling further into their side of the bed and their blankets, “Yes, now go the fuck to sleep.”
“SINCE WHEN DID YOU LEARN HOW TO FUCKING CUSS, (D/P)!?” “The moment I was paired with you, now go to sleep.” “I-Fair point. Good night.”

You ever grab a digimon side character and be like "IM GOING TO TREAT YOU LIKE AN OC... NOW BECOME DEVELOPED"
Sometimes! I think I have built my own impression of Willis/Wallace from the many years I've spent thinking about him (for better or for worse), but he's a struggle to flesh out because he's so... intentionally enigmatic and different depending on which source material you're using, rotfl.
I do have some headcanons/ideas I've wanted to expand on for the sake of character development in fanfic regarding the following minor characters (but sadly have very little fanfic to show for it).
(This got kind of long, under the cut to spare your dash):
(The Fuji TV crew! Mainly the two on the right, Sakurada and Chioka--although Yuki and Hiroaki play a small role in the snippets about the other two I've written. Spoiler alert: these two guys get digimon partners in the end!)
(Maki and Daigo! I have been writing a fic that shows select moments of backstory/Tri from Maki's perspective, but its been stalled for a while. ERGH!)
(THIS L-corp scientist! How exactly did we get here, L-corp scientist?? You might actually be the most important living* adult in Appmon, you deserve a real name and a backstory and BOY do I have THOUGHTS on THAT!)**
* “living” meaning “not assumed to be dead” for a significant portion of the series.
** Please watch Appmon ;D
But then again, I'm just as likely to take a minor character and give them something to do for the sake of continuing the development of a MAJOR character, or exaggerate their traits/take them to the next logical extreme for a quick laugh (i.e. dumb comics and sketches). This has resulted in:
Cody's grandpa Chikara and old!Gennai bonding over a shared love of prune juice;
Mr. Fujiyama being single and Actually Clueless when it comes to giving advice about romance and dating (and asking Nancy Takaishi on a date anyway, to TK's horror);
TK's grandpa Michel giving Tai advice on his love life;
Davis becoming CONVINCED that Jun is using some sort of black magic/love potion on Matt and Tai, because they have been spending Way Too Much Time Together for No Reason He Can See (hijinks sibling warfare ensues);
Izzy & Ms. Kamiya do more baking together (post Digimon Movie). Izzy is a bit thunderstruck by what she considers "following a recipe" (bizarre substitutions and food combinations that would make 1950’s-era instant food corporations proud), but they have fun and eventually make something edible (to Tai's relief). Now that I think about it, she and Mimi would really hit it off!
(Writing this, I realized I have a lot of ideas about the American English dub versions of the minor characters, particularly the adults, because they are so cartoony/embellished themselves! One of the great things about the dub IMO is it gave them a lot of personality and character traits, which are ultimately a good match for my sense of humor. Also I am Old and like to see the adults do things and go on their own adventures, lol).
I don't believe that any of my interpretations or the situations I would be likely to put these characters in are particularly original or unique to the point of seeming like OCs to me (mmmmmaybe L-corp scientist a little, because there's almost nothing about her in canon and fan mentions tend to be very brief/divided, but I have Many Thoughts about how, exactly, we got there). Ultimately, I tend to be of the opinion that characters exist for the purpose of telling stories, and therefore I end up only developing headcanons or engaging in minor-character character development when it seems appropriate for whatever story I'm trying to tell (which makes individual characters somewhat subject to change from story to story, although I strive for SOME consistency between individual works because I'm particular about that sometimes!). But I DO really enjoy seeing other people's headcanons and stories, particularly since we don't have a lot of in-universe information about these minor characters. Having that much room for interpretation is really fun!
(Jyou/Bike Girl is still one of my favorite minor character ships, even though we as a fandom know NOTHING about her :))
I don't know if that answered your question, but thanks for the ask!

Character Analysis: TK Takaishi and Patamon
Oooooh, TK is one I’ve been wanting to talk about.
The development for TK was fairly obvious, wasn’t it? Being explicitly brought up by Matt and everything. He was The Child, the one who cried all the time and needed supervision more than the others. And then he wasn’t, and he managed to slip out of Puppetmon’s grasp on his own, even without Patamon there with him! What a smart lad, he’s growing up so quickly!
...but should he, though?
TK is clearly the one with the most optimism, maybe barring Tai. He’s just a kid, he wouldn’t understand the seriousness of any situation they get into. At the beginning, he wasn’t even really willing to fight, even (possibly consciously, depending on the version of the show) barring Patamon from Digivolving for the first time to avoid a fight. Kids have that kind of “Nothing bad will happen, everything will be fine” outlook, barring having already been traumatised at a young age. Both TK and Kari have it, and it’s entirely reasonable. The lowest point we see TK at is when Angemon died, when he’s absolutely distraught. And even though his egg immediately comes back, the mental damage has already been done. TK doesn’t seem to show much more negativity after that, aside from yelling at Patamon that one time in a perfect recreation of the stupid shit kids fight about at that age, but it’s obvious that the incident affected him. There’s probably a moment where, long after they’ve left the Digital World, TK stops and thinks about it and cries.
I mean, hell, does this look like someone who should be in a life-and-death situation like this?
I love that he’s ready to throw down when he needs to. I love that he’s a capable little dude who can figure things out, and even use some minor manipulation against Puppetmon. But he is definitely looking at this all through a kid’s eyes, the same way a kid watching the show would. It’s a COOL ADVENTURE and he gets COOL FRIENDS and his brother’s there and then later his whole family is together again and it’s fantastic, hooray!
Yeah, Patamon puts it best. He’s still so immature, and while everything worked out fine this time, a few years down the track he’s bound to look back on this and think, “wow, that was actually really messed up!”
TK is the most likely to need serious therapy to recover from all of this once he’s grown up.
Sadly, possibly due to the whole “dying and coming back as a baby” thing, Patamon didn’t really get a lot of time to shine as himself. The entire time he was an In-Training, it felt like he was a liability, something to be protected, not to do the protecting. (Why Matt and Gabumon left them on their own like that is beyond me.) While he got a triumphant return against Demidevimon... it was Demidevimon. The threat level wasn’t all that great. Still, though, he got to take down Piedmon, so he wasn’t entirely deprived of his big moment. He got the first and the last of the triumphant arc-ending Digivolutions.
Ultimately, the two of them fill that same “small innocent pure of heart and is also the strongest” thing that Kari also does, though not to the same extent as her. They’re more interesting characters than that trope usually is, at least.
I’m looking forward to the rest of the things I can say about them, though :)
