Guilmon's Totally Prodigious Digistuff 008 [Video]

[fuhrinkaed]

[As the camera cuts on it's in the middle of a rocky, mountainous region. There is a Kyubimon, as opposed to the usual red of Guilmon, but the green scarf is a dead giveaway.]

Good day to you, contract holders, contracted, and dark partners alike. I, Kyubimon, wielder of the Dark Flame have returned once more to speak to you all.

We have sensed a disturbance in the ether, and as a result have decided to travel beyond the horizon in order to find the ethereal palace. This journey is perilous, filled with dark forces and mystical powers unlike any mortal minds can comprehend.

But fear not, for I shall protect you, even if I must unleash the cursed power contained beneath my scarf. I swore long ago...

K-Kyubimon... [Ed pats the digimon on the head, giving her A Look.] Really now, do you have to make everything so... dramatic?

Things are more interesting this way. Has Ryudamon returned as well?

Nah, she's still foraging. [Ed turns to look at the camera.]

A-anyways, whatever weird thing Kyubimon was saying it's probably not accurate. Me and Rin just decided to have a look around the island, and we'll probably be back before too incredibly long. I have a lot of experience with this stuff so you don't need to worry about coming with.

...And even if you were going to, I kind of already left because I don't think I could lead an expedition and you guys are kind of so friendly that I know you'd try and make an expedition out of it. [He bows.]

S-sorry for not really giving any advanced notice. Stay safe you guys! I'll let you know if I find anything interesting!

[With that, the feed cuts out.]

Huh... well I guess first of all you should decide on what you really feel. Being confused and uncertain as to what your feelings are will reflect on the relationship as a whole.

[ She thinks.

She's never fallen in love with someone who returned the feelings. ]

[fuhrinkaed]

[Well. I guess I got talked into giving it a try so that means I don't really know what I feel, huh. Congrats Rin you've gotten him to go somber and reflective.]

When you put it like that, I can't say for certain what I feel. I mean, I think I like her, but there's a lot of more important things I have to deal with right now. Erm. When I get home.

...Not to mention it's been eight months.

[codes]

Isn't that natural..? You're away from someone for so long that you begin to forget how you feel... ah, it must be awkward with the thought of them coming here, don't you think?

[ Tapping her chin in thought. ]

If you're fortunate, they won't.

So I guess that means for now you don't have to worry about it. For her sake--[ 'And your own' goes unspoken. ]--you should figure it out.

[fuhrinkaed]

...W-w-w-w-well I'm pretty sure she won't come here. I hope. [SHE MIGHT LEGITIMATELY AIM A ROCKET LAUNCHER AT A DIGIMON WHICH WOULD BE... actually kind of badass.]

[But no. Back to introspection.]

A-and it's not like recognizing things would change stuff either way. Nothing I do here will matter back home, so there's no point in thinking about stuff like dating until I do go back, right? [...huh. Well then.]

A-actually, hey. If you kind of liked a person who was nice and sweet and quiet and supportive but you weren't sure liked you back, and also you kind of liked a loud and kind of angry person who shot first and asked questions never a lot of the time but you knew liked you...

Um. Which one would you focus on? [NO THIS IS NOT RELEVANT AT ALL THIS IS JUST A RANDOM QUESTION. HYPOTHETICAL EVEN.]

[codes]

This is relevant to our conversation, isn't it?

[ Staring at him. ] Anyway you shouldn't two-time at your current experience level. There's no way it'll go over well for you.

[fuhrinkaed]

Tangentially, yes!

And I would never ever two time ever! That's just wrong, and incredibly disrespectful to the feelings of both other parties! [Huff! I am appalled you would even think it!]

[codes]

Never ever?

Not even if it came to a cone of ice cream? My, my, my. You really are a devout individual. It'd be hard for me to resist two-timing with ice cream as I'm a woman with many different tastes so I need to have double scoops.

[fuhrinkaed]

...Rin I'm talking about people here.

Ice cream doesn't have feelings. You do know that, right?

[codes]

Of course I know that, I'm just trying to make this conversation not as serious! I was afraid you were going to pass out from all the blood that rushed your head all of a sudden so in all honesty, you should be thanking me.

[fuhrinkaed]

You're right. Thank you very much for making me not pass out from blood rushing to my head. [Nodnod.]

A-anyways, I wouldn't try something like two-timing at any experience level.

[codes]

--But do you think an OT3 is possible?

[ She just has to ask. ]

[fuhrinkaed]

A wha?

[Words Ed does not know: OT3.]

[codes]

The three of you get together?

[fuhrinkaed]

[This idea had legitimately never occurred to me.]

[...]

[In lieu of a response just have this face. Also it's somehow as red as his crest.]

[codes]

Don't get your hopes up.

It's a rare chance that it would even work out. Knowing your luck, the girl who wants to kill you would kill you both.

[fuhrinkaed]

She doesn't want to kill me, just all the rest of humanity for wiping out her village and killing her entire race but her.

....

I told her that wasn't right, by the way.

[codes]

I never understood that sort of thing. Wouldn't someone who's an endangered species want to focus on rebuilding instead of revenge?

[ Priorities, she has them. ] So you know it's not right, but did she listen?

[fuhrinkaed]

She said she'd listen if I proved my way of thinking was right by killing my sister when we inevitably had to fight to the death.

Which was a thing beforehand--I'm not doing it for her.

[codes]

[ What sort of depressing life story did I sign up for. ]

You're going to kill your sister too? Geez.

[fuhrinkaed]

...I wouldn't if I had any other choice, y'know.

It's either her, or everything that exists.

[codes]

Any other choice? I suppose if it is what needs to be done, then you have no choice.

--But I like to make choices for myself, not because there's no other alternative. You should do the same.

[fuhrinkaed]

I don't like it either...

Killing someone is the opposite of who I am. I want everyone to be happy, no matter what.

...If there was another way, I'd take it in a second. But there's not... because she won't let there be one. So. Y-yeah. It's fine. [No it's not, but he can't let that on.]

[codes]

Could just put her in a comatose state for the rest of her life.

[ Rin is full of Great Ideas. ] That way you're not killing her and there's no problem of trouble being caused.

Well, there's likely more trouble to be formed as a result now that I'm thinking about it.

[fuhrinkaed]

Well... It's more that if I do that, it won't solve the real problem.

And I can't solve that problem without her dying.

[codes]

Heh, good thing you're away from that situation for now.

Gives you the chance to open your eyes to alternatives you can't necessarily see when you're dealing with it upfront.
