[3rd Transformation // Anon Text // Optional Action with Bumblebee]
[When Bumblebee first emerges from the damaged apartment of 010 in his robot form, 16 feet of towering metal and living machine, Vanguard is filled with immeasurable awe an wonder.
In an hour, when he finds himself sitting in the car form of his partner, playing session after session of video game inside his cabin, that wonder becomes joy. In three hours, when Vanguard goes to tell off some insolent digimon on Bee's behalf but Bumblebee speaks up on his own first, gently resolving the situation with his own voicebox. All he feels is confusion. Six hours later, when Vanguard has to step outside and get his feet on steady ground after one of Bumblebee's races, it's irritation. The final straw happens when Vanguard finds himself held in the giant, protective metal hand of his robot partner, narrowly injured from a reckless Chosen. Saved. Protected. Lovingly guarded.
Then... it's just anger and resentment.
He leaves Bumblebee to talk with companions just beyond the hole in their apartment (hastily covered by the staff with a sheet of plastic). Bee doesn't need Vanguard to help translate his feelings to the friends he encounters outside. He laughs, and dances and transforms just fine on his own.
So the digimon retreats to their room just a few paces away. It takes ten minutes for it all to boil over. In the back of his mind, he knows he's going to calm down and regret this later but... he's not thinking about that at the time. He angrily jabs an anonymous message into the D-terminal.]

All you Chosen. You think you're so impressive.
You could hardly take care of yourselves when you got here. You couldn't figure out how to eat, sleep or walk. Some of you couldn't even speak. We chased off digimon three times our size to keep you alive. We kept you safe on the journey down to HospiTown.
We did everything we were supposed to. We're your digimon. We were made to meet you and fix this world together.
So much for partners.
You can take your real forms and just
Just go home. We didn't need you either.
[The moment he presses send, he experiences a moment of hesitation. Of something beyond anger. Regret? He crosses his arms and tries not to think about it.]
[ooc: Vanguard (Coronamon) will respond to text anonymously while Bumblebee will react to action outside the hospital.]

I don't know, to be honest.
[He really has no idea at all, right at this moment. He's stuck in a world of data, Floramon is supposed to be his partner, he can't turn into the Other Guy... so much has happened, and Bruce really is at a loss right now.]

What do you mean you don't know?
Ain't nobody ever asked you what you wanted before?

[Nobody gives choices to monsters, Bruce privately thinks, but he's sure that saying that aloud won't get him anywhere.]
text, private;
And you needa figure out what you want too. Otherwise, everybody's gonna push you around and tell you what to do your whole life.

[It's been the guidelines that more or less helped him along for most of his life. Well, until now. Now things are different from what he's used to.]

I'd tell you my name, but I have a secret identity to keep.
You may call me ...
'YOUR MAJESTY.'

[Even in text he's horribly polite, yep.]

Sweet.]
As in royalty. Like a king.

Well, Bruce. For your trusted counsel, I hereby bestow you with one royal favor.
So like. If you need anything. Just... I dunno. Talk to a guy named Bumblebee. He's my messenger.

I'll try to remember that. Thank you.
