First Scar [Video]

[thescaronhisface]

[The feed clicks on to show the D-terminal in a dim room, and from a pretty funny angle. Lopmon's not on camera, but he's trying to shove it into Kovu's hands, and Kovu's shoving it right back, trying to keep himself off the camera too.]

C'mon Kovu, there are people worried about you! Say something!

Why would they be worried when they're all mad at me?!

How do you even know they're mad at you? You wouldn't let any of them talk! They'd only be mad at you 'cause you haven't talked to any of them for so long!

[Kovu suddenly rushes forward, his jaw and goatee now framed in the upper portion of the screen. His snarl can only be partly seen, but it's perfectly visible.]

All right, smart guy, how do you know?!

[Lopmon stumbles back, and the D-terminal falls to the floor.]

You turned it on?!

It...It is?

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

...I guess it is to me.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

But...

[But what? What is there to argue with?]

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

But nothing. I warn you, I grew up with two of the stubbornest cats in the whole world, I've learned to stand my ground.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

I just...I just don't get how it's that easy.

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

...I guess I've held enough grudges for one life. [Look where they've gotten her.] And besides, you didn't do anything wrong to me.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

It feels like I did. To me, anyway.

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

How?

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

I just...do.

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

You shouldn't, it...

...overall, I actually felt better talking to you. You did nothing wrong.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

Don't worry, I'll knock it into his hard head for you.

[Lopmon has leaned in front of the camera, and pounds one fist into his hand. Kovu, though, can't think of anything to say.]

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

I think it's going to take a long time for him to understand, isn't it?

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

Better than never, right?

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

...Yeah. It is.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

[Lopmon grabs Kovu into something of a headlock, prompting a "Hey!" from him.]

Hear that, Kovu? You don't have a choice! Hah!

Get off me!

[Kovu doesn't seem quite so upset now as he yanks Lopmon off. The Digimon just snickers.]

[Hollyleaf rolls her eyes and shakes her head.]

Yes, just like growing up with Jayfeather and Lionblaze...

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

Clanmates?

[Lo and behold, the rabbit was actually listening.]

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

Brothers.

[video]

[thescaronhisface]

So you're saying Kovu's like my big brother?

...Do I have to be?

[video]

[notmyprophecy]

You certainly act like it.

[Video]

[thescaronhisface]

You always said you never had a little brother.

That doesn't mean I wanted one.

[Video]

[notmyprophecy]

[She laughs.]

[Video]

[thescaronhisface]

What's so funny?

[Video]

[notmyprophecy]

The both of you. I think you're getting along better.

[Video]

[thescaronhisface]

Really?

[Lopmon and Kovu both turn their heads look at each other, then cringe and lean backward. It's almost in perfect unison.]
