[Generally Dave isn't fond of being on speaker of any kind, but with all of the dark, there aren't many options left. He's been mulling over a message to get out for a while now, but he's decided winging it will work best.

And no, Hawkmon, that wasn't an intentional pun. Don't laugh, it isn't funny.

Okay it kind of is.]

So let me get this straight- we have the ability to suck people in from different universes but we can't handle a black out? Poor form. The dim screen glow is super handy here but when you're new it's kind of hard to avoid bumping into whatever available surface there is. You know, at this rate I'm kind of expecting to run head first into some googoomon crotch.

Digimon, Dave!

Whatever.
Look, this is a long shot but Jade, John, Rose? If you guys made it here could you like, do me a fucking favor and text me? Hell, I'll take speaker crab if the option is there. You hear that? Speaker crab. When did all of my friends become flakes, I swear to god..

I'm not a flake!

No. I know. You're a bird- a googoomon- a- can you not go through my stuff, hot wings? [Can you hear the sounds of a bird lovingly shuffling through beautiful, personal photos? Because Dave can.]

What are these?

None of your bee's wax is what they are. Fuck man, they're photos, what do they look like? Give 'em here. [There are sounds of scuffling as Dave lovingly grapples with his new best digi friend.]

You certainly have a lot of photos of yourself, Dave.

Is that judgment I hear? Wow. I thought we were meant to be best friends and here you are.. [At this point he'll realise he still has the feed on.] ..Judging me.

I'm out. Restart. Just gonna leave a helpless plea for some light or information here. I'd really like some power or something so I can get an early start on thanksgiving dinner, but whatever, I'll take what I can get.

But I can't stay still for so long. My everything starts falling asleep and thats the worst feeling ever! [ She pauses and laughs sheepishly. ]

Yeah Lucephina is the name I gave my Digimon.

I've found rolling from side to side like a distressed seal brings life back into my everything. It got me through a few years of school, anyway.

Sweet. What's it look like?

They let you roll around at school? [ Giggling a little. ]

She looks kind of like... an angel.

Oh yeah. Especially gym class. Spent a lot of gym class rolling listlessly like a pencil in the wind.

Maybe things have changed, though. I can't remember the last time I went to school.

Angel, huh? Sounds like they suit you just fine then. [It's been a while since he talked to a girl who wasn't an alien or related to him, okok.]

[ It's a good thing it's so dark and it's only Audio or he'd be seeing how red her face has gotten. ]

E-eh? But you don't even know what I look like! [ pauses ]

W-ait! You're already out of school! I was thinking you'd be around my age!

[If this were video, Dave would not have been able to pull that line off. Thankfully it is and it's dark and nobody can see him making faces at himself for coming on too strong.]

Hey, I'm not in it for the visuals, I'm just saying you sound pretty damn nice.

I'm not out of school so much as school was destroyed along with the rest of the world. I'm actually sixteen.

I think.

I can't wait to see the nice guy behind these nice words if and when the lights come back!

...! Wait your world is gone? That's terrible! You must be a super mega brave guy!

Hopefully you won't be severely disappointed. [Have some awkward laughter.]

Uh, well. Brave is one word for it, lucky is the one I'd use. It's a pretty long story, to be honest.

You don't have to tell me if it's something personal. I don't want to pry... but can you tell me your name? It'd be hard to be friends without knowing each other's name right?

It's not personal, it'd just take the better half of a week to explain everything that happened. Basically we destroyed the world to make a new one through a game, but I'm pretty sure that's not going to make sense.

Yeah, it's Dave. Dave Strider. How about you?

Was there something wrong with the old one?

O-oh and My name is Miwako Sakurada! But just Miwako is fine.

That's the part that gets complicated, actually. I have a hard time telling it without it coming out lame.

Nice. [Let him just nerd for a second.] You're Japanese? [So cool.]

Edited 2013-09-15 12:24 (UTC)

I bet you could tell the tale of it and make it super cool!

[ She can't help but giggle just a bit. ] I am actually.

You're awfully supportive for someone who hasn't heard me try to tell a story before.

That's awesome. Almost as awesome as being American. [He's joking, of course.]

Well you already seem like a really cool guy to me, so that means your stories would be really cool, right?

[ She giggles more. ] You're silly.

Wow, first I'm cool then I'm silly. Those are some seriously mixed signals you're giving me, girl.

Edited 2013-09-18 13:35 (UTC)

Hey you can be silly and still be really cool.

Doesn't one counteract the other? It's like chemistry, too much of a good thing and you're all set to explode.

Seriously though. I'm like the opposite of silly.

I guess I never looked at it that way.

And now that you've seen it, you can't unsee it. That's science too.

Then I guess this is one fact I won't be forgetting any time soon.

Sweet. [Time for him to get awkward again.]

So I guess I'll see you around? When it isn't dark, I mean. I won't be seeing anyone anytime soon at this rate.

I would really like that.
