[You thought one bad sweater was enough? THINK AGAIN. Yes, it seems that Guilmon has discovered the joys how hideous attire, and he faces the video with a grin far too huge considering the circumstances.]

Everyone, you should go talk to Wheeljack right now and get one of these! He's got the best sweaters ever. Guilmon's looks cool, doesn't it? It's got diamonds and three different colors and it's fuzzy. Guilmon's never worn something fuzzy like this before. Do you think Guilmon could hide dark powers under a sweater, or is that just for scarves?

[...Yes, Kyubimon's speech still resonates with him. But, after a bit of laughter, his expression sobers a bit.]

Oh, and does anybody know ways to cheer people up? Takato's really sad right now, and he's been acting funny ever since the training party. When Guilmon asked why, he said something about Juri and Ruki, but I don't really know why. Juri and Ruki are our friends! And isn't it normal for friends to spend time together? Or is there some other way people are together that Guilmon doesn't know?

[ooc: Though the threads aren't finished yet, Takato found out about certain things at the training party. This is Guilmon's response... and also sweaters.]

Your sweater looks very nice on you, Guilmon.

[ Polite and soft spoken as per the usual. ] I wasn't aware dark powers were associated with scarves however... Is it a bad sign to wear one?

[Hey, it's Mikasa! And, just like that, Guilmon's expression brightens again.]

No, but the other Guilmon has a cool scarf, and she said she hides a cursed power under it. She does it to keep everybody safe, and Guilmon thinks that's super cool!

It must mean a lot to her if she has to come up with a reason to never remove it...

[ The comment is meant to be idle chatter to herself, but she's not aware of how well the D-Terminal picks up on speech. ]

[thebiggestdreamer]

(Good thing Guilmon's not one for speaking quietly since Takato doesn't have the Terminal on...a few seconds pass before the goggleboy just stares at his partner with an added sweatdrop, headtilt...and disbelief.)

...Tell me you'll only wear this on Christmas.

(As in this Christmas and no other.)

Hey wait, did I hear you-? Don't ask people about that! What if it's private?!

(He might be upset, but he still doesn't wanna get hurt by Ruki. Then again, physical might be better than emotional. So, can you forget what he just said Guilmon?)

[guilmon]

Aww, but why only Christmas?

[He pokes at the belly of the sweater, still grinning.]

And why can't Guilmon ask? I wanted to see what other people thought because you've been so sad lately. Takato doesn't have to be sad!

[thebiggestdreamer]

(Because you might blind everyone the other 364 days out of the year?)

Because that's what makes it special!

...I'll be fine, Guilmon. I just need time by myself for now. Don't involve Katou-san or Ruki in this.

[amygdalae]

[Oh its a...

Digimon...

...wow.]

I'm pretty sure you can't hide powers in a sweater or scarf. Maybe other things, though.

[guilmon]

Really? But Kyubimon said she's got a cursed power under hers and--

[He stops, eyes widening.]

Other things?

[This is an amazing revelation. He must know more!]

video;

[amygdalae]

Perhaps she might have meant something else instead. [Bruce is pretty sure you can't hide powers in clothes, at any rate.

Also, yes, other things.]

And well, other things more... physcial in nature. Like a-- [What is something Digimon can understand, uhhhhh] --a Digiegg, maybe.

[lionhearted_destiny]

[Oh. Oh no. Juri speaks quickly and carefully.] Guilmon... That's something a little private.

[Uh oh.]

[guilmon]

[Awww. Have a slight pout on Guilmon's end. This is so confusing!]

Takato said the same thing, but I still don't understand. Guilmon just wants Takato to smile and not be sad...

[headseraph]

[Shiki tilts her head to the side, as if surveying the sweater.]

It actually looks cute on you - probably because it matches your colors.

[guilmon]

Cute?

[Guilmon gives Shiki an enormous smile, giggling all the while.]

Then I wonder why Takato thinks I shouldn't wear it so much. He says to only wear it on Christmas...

[changelingdude]

Dude! That is an awesome sweater!

[guilmon]

Yay, Guilmon's glad you think so!

[He puffs up his chest in pride. At least some people like the sweater!]

But now Guilmon kind of wants a sweater made of bread... Somebody should bake one.

[fuhrinkaed]

So Takato is sad because of something about Juri and Ruki..?

[Ed tries to figure out what this might be--and is interrupted by a red blur shoving him aside and into a stack of books.] WAUGH!!

That sweater is so cool! I want one too, geko!

[guilmon]

Guilmon can get Guilmon a sweater, too! A super cool sweater. There's lots of them!

[In fact, now he has plans for Christmas. This is excellent!

As for Ed...]

And Takato's sad because Juri and Ruki are "together". Do you think they decided to play a game and forgot to invite him?

[Video]

[guilmon]

Mm. He was crying and everything...

[It's not the first time he's seen Takato cry, but over his friends? Why?]

He said Juri and Ruki are "together," but nobody's told Guilmon what that really means.

[Video]

[alley_kit]

[When Kit appears on the screen, it appears she's been baking; her visible fur and clothing are both dusted with flour.]

Maybe they're 'together' like Tygra and Cheetara are back home. Which means they'll probly be getting all kissy and stuff.

[She kinda rolls her eyes at that. Being kissy is gross, OK?]

[Video]

[guilmon]

Kissy?

[Guilmon's face scrunches up, and he tries to imagine this...]

Haaa... What's kissy, though? Guilmon's not sure he really knows.

[video]

[strengthinkindness]

Oh...that's a...very nice sweater.

Is Takato all right? [She wasn't sure who Juri and Ruki were exactly, but Takato was nice and she hoped everything was okay.]

[video]

[guilmon]

[Thankfully, since she mentioned Takato, his focus remains on him and not the slight awkwardness about the sweater. Nice save!]

Well, he's been really, really sad lately. Like Guilmon said, he told me that Juri and Ruki are "together" and was crying lots when he said it. Is that something you're supposed to be sad about?

[my_style]

Guilmon.

Stop talking about Takato, Juri, and I.

I know you don't know any better, but this isn't the time or the place.

[guilmon]

...Oh.

[He shifts awkwardly, looking down at the floor.]

Then is Ruki mad now?
