Meanwhile on DigiAdvs

PATAMON, agHAST Voice: You KICK Patamon??? You kICK PATAMON LIKE A FOOTBALL?!! Oh! Oh! Shut in the school at night for Takeru and Daisuke (and Miyako, and Yamato, aND--)! Shut in the school at night for One Million Years!!!! Takeru: ...Patamon, but we'd have graduated by--- Patamon: SHUT IN THE SCHOOL at NIGHT for ONE BILLION Years!!!!! DAISUKE: tAKErU---- YAMATO: Koushiro, mental sighing: (I'll just leave some extra keys by the doors and... other places.) Taichi, trying to keep from cracking up nearby: (pppFFFFT....) Tailmon: (It could have been me, but Hikari knows to not "kick me like a football", so I don't care.) Hikari: (... I'll have to be careful when I nudge Tailmon next time.)

Meanwhile with Digimon Adventures' KouTai{/shiro} (Koushiro x Taichi)

Someone involved with the Chosen Children, to Taichi Yagami: Uh, so, is Izumi REALLY your "friend"?

TAICHI:

Taichi, slowly: ...Why do you ask?

That Person: Well, I mean, you guys don't even hang out super often. It's like Izumi's always off hiding somewhere. Like aside from the work he does, like that Izumi doesn't even want to be around peopl---

Taichi, cutting That Person off: "Koushiro" has Koushiro's OWN stuff to do. I don't need to "hang out" with Koushiro "24/7" to know that Koushiro cares about the team---

Taichi's mind: (And 'me')

Taichi: --Koushiro likes email communication and long distance type stuff anyway, Koushiro LIKES writing out the "thoughts" even if Koushiro rambles a lot, so I sometimes have to tell Koushiro to 'scale back' a bit so I can keep up with what Koushiro says, but--

That Person: No, I mean, don't you think Izumi needs to work on communicating with you better?

Taichi:

Taichi:

Taichi: ...It's true that Koushiro is a very private person, and our communication could always use "improvement", but I think the one that needs to ""work on communication better"" is you.

That Person, Probably:

Taichi: (I'm outta here.)

Koushiro, later on, genuinely surprised: ...You said that?

Taichi: It was either sit there and listen to them put you down for the rest of the conversation, possibly multiple times, or do something about it. I chose the--

Koushiro: --Latter.

Taichi: ...Yeah, so--

Koushiro: (I'm glad Taichi-san said that) but...

Koushiro, definitely not shyly: Well, um... "Thanks."

TAICHI: (...Koushiro's thanking me Koushiro's thanking me Koushiro's thanking ME KoushirO'S /THANKING ME/----)

Meanwhile with Digimon Adventures' Taishiro {Koushiro x Taichi}, just pre 02

Yamato: Seriously... learn how to tie a tie, you football obsessed person!! TAICHI: its Not MY Fault. I Never wear suits with ties. {LAUGH} YAMATO: ITS KNOWLEDGE EVERY MAN SHOULD HAVE-!! Koushiro, attempting {+Failing} to tie new uniform tie, Off to side: ('I couldn't do it either...') Taichi: {is Oblivious (to Yamatos plight)} YAMATO, Oblivious to Koushiros plight: {SIGHING}

[koushirouizumi]

Me, looking around my old Digi-O.C.s site C.D.: ... "Myotismon" in this super old thing I wrOTE: "This {"world" you live in} is *an alternate world* {from 'my own'}! You can thank (TAKERU) T.K. TAKAISHI and his silly NOVEL for THAT. Because of HIM, this {real} world is a NEW reality in which THE {Original} DIGI-DESTINED {I KNOW} never EXISTED!" m E: (GENUINELY having forgotten I wrote that in) I can't BELIEVE ""T.K."" ALSO accidentally created the Repeatverse {+before This Site even Existed}

[izzyizumi]

Meanwhile with Digimon Adventures' KouTai {Koushiro x Taichi}

Koushiro, coming back home, finding Taichi, typing furiously while BEAMING at the screen: Koushiro: ... ('This is unusual. Taichi-san's usually not this excited to---') Koushiro: Taichi-san? What are you doing? TAICHI, automatically: I'm making a poll!!! kOUSHIRO: Koushiro: Let me see-- Taichi, showing Koushiro the poll: These are so cool, Koushiro!!! Poll option on Poll Taichi Made: ("I want to treat Koushiro gently *only if Koushiro wants") Koushiro: tAICHI-SAN---

Meanwhile with DigiAdvs 02's Daisuke+Co. [and some O.C.s]

Daisuke, Once 'Home': So... Ken, Sitting: ... Inter-national O.C. Chosen Shane, ...'Digitally'... 'Sitting': ... Daisuke: Well, uh, since Ken's here... Daisuke, scratching head: Maybe now we could play some of {videogame, that I was working on bEFOrE ALL THIS Started} 'this' game??? (*Holding it up*) Ken: Shane: KEN: SHANE: Ken: Daisuke, give me the controller. Shane: (This will be Interesting.) Daisuke: Great! I'll start us off-- {30~50 min into the run} KEN: (*is literally speed-running*) KEN: (*speed-running a very BADLY GLITCHED Game*) Daisuke, to Shane: Seriously?!? SHANE: (THEY Wanted to--) KEN: (It was a Challenge) SHANE: (I can easily just turn the whole set off instead.) KEN: (I Challenged You.) SHANE: (Yeah, so I'm appeasing you for now.) DAISUKE: ??!?????! Ken, encountering a particularly hard glitched-up Boss fight: I'm going to win. (*FIGHTS*) SHANE: (*messes it up Further*) DAISUKE: (*has lost spectacularly at even playing*) Daisuke: (How long is this going to go on for?!??) Shane: (Until I get bored enough to leave Ken hanging.)

[koushirouizumi]

Meanwhile with DigiAdvs 02's Daisuke+Co. [and some O.C.s]

Takeru, Looking down at Patamon resting: ...So this person Daisuke 'met' "recently"... if I have this *all* right... might be like a "Guardian Angel"? Inter-national O.C. Chosen Shane: SHANE+DAISUKE: SHANE: (It's Not Exactly That.) Koushiro: But whom exactly are they "protecting", if so? If not {Mutual O.C. also present here in this conversation} Hikaru-san... DAISUKE, Didn't Tell Them About "Incidents" Involving Near-Death that Shane *Certainly* Saved Daisuke From: SHANE: (I *Said* It's Not Exactly That.) DAISUKE: (But they don't KNOW.) Shane: (I'm *probably* here for a specific "reason" but it's not *just* "That".) Daisuke: (Why do you keep insisting?!??) Shane: (Because it's the truth---) {To Be Continued, Maybe}

[koushirouizumi]

Meanwhile with DigiAdvs 02's Daisuke+Co. & KouTai [and some O.C.s]

Koushiro: I could try cleaning up the picture a bit, but it might prove "difficult". It's pretty small, and... "low quality." (Showing others Again) Koushiro: We may not get as much "detail" as we hope. But based on this alone, we can "see" some obvious details already. Koushiro: They have dark (Black) hair, dark (Brown) eyes... The hair is a little "spiky" at the ends, but not overly so. (*Pointed Blinking*) It's just how it naturally falls. They're short... and small of build. Maybe somewhat wider shoulder width than {mine} the average person we'd know... Taichi: (I wonder if they played sports at all?) Daisuke, muttering to Taichi: (They said they weren't very "sporty". I think they might have ONCE though, but it's probably not "just because" of that... not like your training) Koushiro: ...And they wear all black. (*Showing*) Chosen not Koushiro: (Like a 'goth'.) Hikaru, Staring: Hikaru: It's true Shane wore black often back then, but sometimes wore blue jeans and the like too... Miyako: That's still very ("goth") like that, though!! Iori: They might stick out in a crowd in Odaiba... it'd look out of place at my residence and the dōjō too, if my family didn't "know" you all already. Daisuke: Yeah, but this was in the U.S. Hikaru: I did live there when I was younger, but we moved by the time I entered high school... that's when I met you. My old friends and some family are still there but... (*trails off*) Daisuke: (Hikaru doesn't understand why someone looking like Hikaru's long time childhood *online* 'mutual' Shane would still be tied "there" instead of "here". Hikaru might still not believe it's them...) SHANE: ... Shane: (/I'm close enough I can touch Hikaru./) Shane: (I saw Hikaru "in-between" but even now Hikaru looks a bit different...) Shane, carefully reaching a hand out, trying to gently touch at the ends of Hikaru's curly hair... suddenly half-Physical: SHANE: (!!!) (*FADES*) HIKARU: !! I Felt something?? (Just... now?) Hikari: What happened?? Hikaru: From the back, I felt "something"... TAICHI, Looking at Daisuke: DAISUKE, LOOKING BACK: (I don't think Hikaru would mind if Shane "revealed" themself now, but Hikaru might get emotional...) SHANE, Digitally floating back and higher, "out of sight": (I'm Not Going To) Wormmon, nudging Ken, noticing Tailmon staring INTENTLY at said spot: KEN: ... Ken, Looking at Daisuke: You said you actually "saw" or encountered someone like this person? Daisuke, Nervous Laughing: It's A Long Story But Hikaru: But Shane disappeared over 10 years ago... Koushiro: Do you remember any other specific details? Hikaru: Shane suddenly stopped coming to the local synagogue's services, which was suspicious even for Shane... once people there and Shane's family realized Shane was truly missing and not just "off on Shane's own", they put out a notice. But not even Shane's few family members left there could find Shane after, and the room was "spotless". I didn't find out until the news showed the report... Ken, Quiet: ...Like when I... left. Hikaru, still doesn't know Everything from when Ken was the Kaiser but had Ideas since they had some private Talks: Maybe... but there were no signs of struggle, and not even a message left... just that the computer chair was pushed back a little, and the screen was "on". But all it even showed was part of the desktop. And the Internet browser was open, but not on any page. Just the default. Like Shane was only just logging in and hadn't actually started using it yet. (We e-mailed back and forth a lot...) Koushiro: There's still a chance something to do with the Digital World happened, but... Daisuke, Didn't Tell them Shane Has A Partner: KEN, Looking at Daisuke: (We Need To Talk.) DAISUKE: (Later!!) SHANE: (...) (Oh, so that's Daisuke's other Queer-platonic Life partner.) (I recognize them now.) (They had a cool Partner 'Mon and helped Daisuke out a lot as support back then. But they're... kind of Stiff.) SHANE: (I'm {probably} going to have to keep this up for a while...)

On the 02 careers...

( If you have time, please read {you can machine translate} Hiroyuki Kakudou's full blog post regarding the concept behind the world of '25 Years Later' post-02. )

{Preview}:

"Shortly before all humankind had partner {Digital monsters} and all sorts of troubles actually subsided, research was being conducted to find out what caused this. Of course, Koushiro is one of them*. As we learn more about evolution, the existence of forces that try to obstruct evolution also becomes clear." *Assuming Kakudou meant "Digital World Researcher" Koushiro {as seen in the epilogue, Koushiro researches alongside Shuu Kido and Haruhiko Takenouchi; it could be presumed there's more} "25 years later, Taichi's occupation as an adult was listed as a diplomat, but I {Kakudou} couldn't find the right words to describe someone who is not tied to one country and tries to bring about peace and friendship from a free position. That's because. Because Taichi was busy with so many different activities, he ended up {'getting married'} and {'having children'} later than his junior Daisuke, and in the final scene, Taichi's child is almost the youngest. The picture should show that the scene was created with such things in mind."

Meanwhile with DigiAdvs 02 + O.C.s

Ken, wiping away a Single (very fake) tear: Today we lost our dear friend Shane. SHANE (Hiding if not actually Stuck in Digital form): STOP Telling everyone I'm dEAD--- DAISUKE (Confuse?): Sometimes I still hear Shane's voice...? SHANE: SHANE: I'm not playing games with you two tonight. DAISUKE, DISTRESSED: Oh cOME ON-----

Digimon Adventure 02 ~ O.C.s Fanfiction, featuring once-known as "FDD", "Fictional Digidestined & Digimon", or Fictional Chosen Children (using Japanese original terms) ~ "COF:TFF" ({Chosen} of Faith): The Fan Fic +Daisuke is visiting my 02 O.C. Hikaru, (NOT Hikari) {who Daisuke may have (mutual?!) starting crushes with} except meets a 'surprise visitor?' {"Shane!"} instead. {Exact cap of the file on my old C.D.} which has all the pages I could save before webpurges except site images + font colors won't display until I re-create the ENTIRE SITE again.

In the old story Young Me accidentally spelled Michael (American Chosen Child) wrong so it's 'corrected' here, lol. (I was also using "Willis" but since am correcting it to Japanese original canon!"Wallace".) Thus the implication here is Shane apparently 'knows' (of) Michael & Wallace But is it The Case Shane knows them WELL? Dun-dun-dun... "Meanwhile with Daisuke (+Shane)" Mini-Chatstyle Series: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 13 / 14 / 14.5 {Lightly PG-15} / 15 / 16 / 17* (A.U. Spin-off {Digimon x Pokemon Crossover!}) (A.K.A., "The Fate of Four Worlds"/TFOFWVerse) 18 / 19 / 20 / 21 / 22 / 23 / 24 / 25 26 / 27 / 28 / 29 / 30 / 31* / 32 {+O.C.

["To Be Continued" Someday, mAYBE...] (It's mostly crack {humor} A.U. spin-offs, 02 Chosen+KouTai also show briefly in-between, Ken->Daisuke<-Hikaru as open relationships (Mains), Ken->DaisukexHikari<-Hikaru is also strongly implied; Takeru/Miyako happened previously in my past fics, but currently mutually unrequited, as they "split" on good terms. (However, Miyako still has "some" feelings to handle re both Takeru and Ken...) {More might come later!} + Kou+Tai in background; are all main featured 'ship's here, but as for KouTai, mostly in the background for now. Hikaru still exists in this too, though, +does appear!)

{More details under the 'read more'!}

Shane did mention another given name here; however, I might pick a different one this time {unsure}

The precursor to the "REPEAT?_Verse" and "The Past World" (Royalty/Clones-verse A.U. timeline spinoffs!) (Hikaru cameos in Chapters 4 + 6 of 'The Past World', it also shows a later section of what would have eventually been part of Koushiro's 'ARC' in my old story, in my later fanfiction 'Infalliable', featuring Daisuke and Koushiro friendship during 'Chosen of Faith'!)

by Young Me circa Pre-2k10 (to eventually be re-written in Full) Or, in which Young Me casually uses foreshadowing to conceal that my O.C. is very much a Very (Mostly) Dead One. {i.e. SHANE answering the door instead of owner of the home}

Inter-national Chosen Shane: ... Daisuke: .... Both: ...... Shane: ...Well, this is it. Daisuke & Shane, facing a coffin: Shane: I asked my former local rabbi to prepare it 'all' beforehand. Even though I hadn't been their student for over ten years... they remembered me and agreed. So it was prepared "without question" from anyone in the "real" world questioning my origins. Daisuke: ... Shane: Once I cross a certain distance, I'm gone for good, so I won't be a bother to you (or Ken) anymore. Daisuke: But, (referring to Inter-national Chosen, Shane's friend and Daisuke's current partner) Hikaru--- Shane: We already discussed the potential outcomes. Hikaru's upset too, I know... but Hikaru said Hikaru would support me no matter what. ... (You know that too, Yes?) Daisuke, Did Know if Vaguely: (Frustrated Internal Sigh) Shane: So, when I walk over around that kind of distance, (waves hand vaguely) I'll likely just vanish in a blip. Because I'm not "going to the other side". Shane: I'm "returning to the ground". Daisuke: I know... I get it... Just.... Shane: ..You brought the stones, right?? Daisuke, Showing a couple: Yeah... Hikaru picked one out- SHANE: Shane: ...Tell Hikaru "thanks" again for me too. Daisuke: I Will. Shane: ...(Slow lop-sided smirk)-- Shane: And... "Thanks" for being a Host that was worth ""haunting"" for a while. (It wasn't actual 'haunting' but) DAISUKE: Daisuke: ...Y-You know, you don't REALLY have to go? We still have room, and Ken's perfectly fine with cooking for you too if you stay physical, and-- Shane: But that's the point, we don't KNOW if I'll be able to stay physical much longer... Daisuke: I KNOW but-- Shane: ... Before that happens, I think it'd be nicer to choose for myself "how". Daisuke: ... ... ... Daisuke, Slowly: ...It was fun. Being ""haunted"". Even if that wasn't "really it" in... (your culture). Shane: Yeah. Shane: ... So, here goes, then... (Remember to place the stones after). DAISUKE, HAD THEM rEADY BUT: (W-wAIT--) SHANE, Already Floating Closer at a Steadily Increasing Pace if Carefully: .... ... ... sHANE, SUDDENLY PULLING BACK: !!!!!! DAISUKE: (?????) SHANE, WHIPPING AROUND: (You CAN'T be serious.) dAISUKE: {GENUINELY SURPRISED} (WHAT????) SHANE: (It wasn't exactly a "zap", but I froze in place temporarily...) It's... blocking me. DAISUKE: .....

Taichi: ... ..I'm not sure "unusual" is the way to say it but... Yamato: Was Koushiro acting unusual about it? Taichi: NO, that's the thing about this! YAMATO: T A I C H I: Koushiro was trying them out, but doesn't really like wearing them in public. So Koushiro wore them while around Hikari and me for a while. Yamato: ("Ah.") Taichi: And that's what happened! So when the ears moved... (*leans in, conspiring-like but louder*) Koushiro wasn't acting very different at all!!! Yamato: Koushiro Wasn't. Taichi: No... like, Koushiro would be looking really blankly at us, like what happens a lot, and they'd sit straight upwards. Yamato: (Koushiro was PAYING ATTENTION to you---) Taichi: Then, Koushiro got super interested in the Pibook again, and they were ALSO sitting straight up AND moving back and forth a lot, but Koushiro wasn't DOING MUCH, just using the Pibook like usual...!! YAMATO: (*LONG GROANING in Taichis general direction*) ('YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, IT MEANS KOUSHIRO'S 'INTERESTED' IN-') TAICHI, BANGING FIST INTO PALM: AND THEN!!! And then, when I finally {'Got Koushiro's Attention' implied} asked Koushiro about playing a game, the ears were lowered!! YAMATO, AGAIN MENTALLY FACEPALMING: Taichi: I-It means Koushiro DOESN'T want to, with me-- righ-- Y A M A T O: (KOUSHIRO WAS SO HAPPY YOU ASKED THAT KOUSHIRO DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO RESPOND TO YOU!!!!)

Shane: Are you concerned for me? I'm fine. Shane: I have these (*holds up Taichi+Daisuke's GOGGLES*) now, so... and Koushiro-...san really upgraded them well. So I can actually SEE where I'm going now when I need to. Shanes' Mon: (It's like you've 'accomodated' yourself.) SHANE: ... (M aybe.) Shane: At the same time, the colors sometimes give me a headache. But Koushiro-san did add in an option that can dim them... but then it's harder to see the signals for "distortions". Shanes' Mon: (But at least, you can still somewhat tell them apart based on the vividness.) Shane: ... (Yeah...) Shane: ... Well, I'm up now, so... Shanes' Mon: (Where are you going from here?) Shane: I don't know. (Mostly I just wanted to "sleep".) Shanes' Mon: ... Shanes' Mon: (But you said, 'want{ED}'.) Shane: Yeah. There's people I want to see again... SHANE: ... But I know they'll wait for me where they can, so there's no major rush. Shanes' Mon: (Are you going to go back to "sleep"?) Shane: (It depends.) Are you going to be there when I open my eyes? SHANES' MON: ... (If you reach out to me.) SHANE: ... Shane: (Yeah, I know.) Guess I gotta wake up then. Shanes' Mon: (As you know, I cannot leave "the Void". But you know how "to communicate" with me.) SHANE: ... Right. (And you know how "to listen".) Shanes' Mon: (You might want to put those goggles back on.) Shane: ('Heh') Honestly, I'm surprised I got this much use out of them, but as said, they're... functional now. SHANE, ADJUSTING GOGGLES: Ready. Shanes' Mon: (Time to 'wake up'.) SHANE, SEEING Darkness ... and Signals: SHANE, OPENING EYES: (*in a bed*) ... ?? ? PATRICK (Shane's sibling): Huh, I thought I heard something...!! ! W-wait, SHANE???

Do you still need to rest? Shane: ... Maybe a bit. But later... we can see? PATRICK: That's fine. Just... let me know when you're feeling better. (*closes door carefully*) SHANE, CHECKING GOGGLES: (Still here.) SHANE, CHECKING DIGIVICE: {STILL... Here.} Shane, sighing in relief: (I guess it'd be {REALLY} Bad if even the most powerful 'Mon in all the universe got caught up in 'that'.) SHANES' MON: (They don't Know the half of it.)

(Frowning in Contemplation) Shane's Mon: It is perhaps a bit like "wishing"-- GoldVmon: Oh, I know how to do that!! Like when I wish for more chocolate and Hikaru's family's cooking!! Shane, rather avoids Rich sweetness (but also just kind of Awkward Responding): Shane's Mon: Shane's Mon: ...Or perhaps a bit more like "communing". For example, if you express your feelings in such a way as to "convey" them to--- Shane: (Convey my feelings?? WhyThisTM) GoldVmon: Oh! I can do that too!! LIKE, "I WANT TO SEE HIKARU, I WANT TO SEE HIKARU, I WANT TO SEE HIKARU, I WANT TO SEE HIKARU!" Something like 'that', right?!??
