[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.]

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...

[headseraph]

It's kind of . . . [How do you politely say extremely garish?] . . . festive. He's probably a little upset about your friends too.

[guilmon]

Yeah, Guilmon thinks so, too...

[Sigh. If only he knew the magic secret to fixing that.]

But Guilmon's still not sure why that's sad. What is being together if it's not spending time with people? Is there something else?

[headseraph]

It's . . . not really my place to say.

[Lalamon pops up in front of Shiki, way too close up.] They're together together. With tongue, probably.

Lalamon! [Shiki pushes her out of the way.] She's sort of right, though. I think Takato is upset because your friends like each other more than they like him.

[Popping back up, Lalamon spins around and waves her little arms around.] They're in loooooooooooooooooooooooooooove~

. . . That's another way of putting it.

[guilmon]

[They like each other more than Takato? Guilmon lets out a moan at the thought. Takato's such a good person! Why would they do that?

And then Lalamon has to bring up tongues, at which point he drops his communicator, which rattles to the ground. When he finally picks it back up, his face is frozen into a wide-eyed stare.]

Wah, why tongues? Are they trying to eat each other?!

[headseraph]

No, it's just that -

Yes, they're gonna eat each other's faces! [Lalamon is laughing. She has no concern for whether or not Guilmon understands what she's getting at.]

Don't listen to her. [Shiki shoves Lalamon out of frame.] Just. Do you know what dating is?

[guilmon]

Waaugh! No eating faces! That's bad!

[He starts shaking his head like crazy until Shiki intervenes, at which point he freezes, tilts his head, and lets out a soft sigh.]

Mm. Guilmon's not sure... Is that what day it is?
