001. Video.

[The video comes on to a newcomer, a man possibly in his forties? That or a bit weathered and in his thirties, with a poker face and a low voice.]

Hello.

I am one of the new "Chosen" here. My partner - a Gazimon - and I have been assigned to stay in floor one, room eight of the apartments. I understand that the rooms are to be shared between three [Brief hesitation.] human-Digimon pairs.

I would be glad to know who we'll be staying with. If that needs to wait for later rather than sooner, I ask that the other tenants of F1 008 don't be alarmed to see Gazimon and me there.

Thank you. [Small nod before the recording ends.]

[Monodramon is the one manning the d-terminal when Thane's broadcast goes out. Shepard is flipping through a book in bed, because damn if broken ribs don't make it hard to be up and about.]

[When she hears a familiar voice, though, she's out of bed in an instant, no response to the stab of pain but the tiniest hint of a wince. Thank god, someone she knows--]

[Except when she grabs the device out of Monodramon's hands, she doesn't see a Drell on the screen. The disappointment sets in, but she turns on the video anyways.]

. . . Have we met somewhere?

Hey, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I've already decided on who my suitemates are. [ What a rude girl. She makes up for her charming personality with a half-assed smile at least. ] Hm, but I don't think I have much of a choice.

I'd hate to send you out on your own and it is my responsibility to be kinder to the newbies, huh? What a pain.

Oh, I've been assigned to that room too. [Huh. Seems kind of weird that whoever's in charge of housing would choose to put an adult man with a teenage girl, but he seems nice enough...]

I'm new too, so I won't really be able to help you adjust, since I'm still trying to get used to things as well. I'm sorry.

You know, you shouldn't wear a mask while using the D-Terminal. You might scare some of the children that are staying here.
