[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.]

[Yet another pause, again, this one even longer than before. Mostly because Bruce has to think about it - and he really does, but eventually, well.]

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.]
amygdalae: I just choose not to say them (I have a lot of words)

Not exactly.

[Nobody gives choices to monsters, Bruce privately thinks, but he's sure that saying that aloud won't get him anywhere.]
amygdalae: also no I did not bang Miss Potts-Stark (well this is awkward)

I do know what to not do, at the very least.

[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.]
amygdalae: its going to drop eventually (waiting for that other shoe)

Yes. It's a start, if anything.
amygdalae: this just got a whole lot more awkward (welp)

Ah--apologies. You can call me Bruce. Bruce Banner.
amygdalae: dun dun DUUUUN (we're not a team; we're a timebomb)

Well then, a pleasure to meet you, your Majesty.

[Even in text he's horribly polite, yep.]
amygdalae: remember that you are human (Default)

[personal profile] amygdalae 2014-02-11 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Your Majesty, then. Apologies.
amygdalae: now where have I heard that line before (yeah I can smile)

[Please this is hardly the worst thing Bruce has done. If this makes Vanguard happier, then so be it.]

I'll try to remember that. Thank you.
amygdalae: I think I'm angry (oh you think you're funny)

Until next time.
