01; Hashire! Penguin! (video)

[sonati]

<sub>[The feed starts very shakily, and doesn't seem very steady, before it's clear that the source comes from Sonata jumping on the bed, apparently practicing her singing, as she's been practicing, amusingly enough, Hashire! Penguin!. Hopefully her roomies aren't around, though maybe they should... just start learning to live with having Sonata as a roommate. Penguinmon can't be seen, but he can be heard offscreen.

Apparently he isn't too much of a fan.]</sub>

You really shouldn't be jumping around like that. _{[Kid you'll break your neck and he doesn't want to be responsible]}

Sonata's practicing! _{[Why do you have to be such a killjoy, Penguinmon]} Slowpoke should practice, too!

I wish you would stop calling me that... [Everyone else's Digimon partners seem to be getting much better nicknames, while he's stuck being called 'Slowpoke']

Slowpoke needs to move faster! Slowpoke! Slowpoke! Slow- huh?

<sub>[Sonata abrubtly stops jumping on the bed, as something's caught her attention. Penguinmon, apparently, is now... Gatomon.

Well, it got her to stop jumping around, at least.]</sub>

Whoah, Slowpoke, you turned into a kitty!

... It looks that way, yes.

[ It's not that she doesn't want to use the communication she got. it's just... going to take time for her to gather her thoughts to even make a semi-coherent post yet. Which is why she's content to let Bokomon browses it for now. At least, until she hears a certain song

and a certain voice

CAN IT BE SOMEONE SHE KNOWS IS ALSO HERE!?! ]

... Sonata!?

[ The prospect of that got her so excited she hurriedly scrambles to check the d-terminal... promptly crashing on top her partner, both their faces ending up a little too close to the video feed ]

Oh, is that someone you know, Makoto? See, I was right. They'll all eventually arrive here. You just have to wait a bit.

[ she'd respond, but making sure it is her fellow illegal idol that's with the newly transformed peguin/kitty comes first ] Sonata, Sonata! That's really you, right?!

video; 1/??

[sonati]

_{[Is that a fellow illegal idol Sonata hears--]}

video; 2/4??

[sonati]

_{[And not just any old illegal idol- it's Grumbly.
Cue Sonata's face pressed up close to the screen as well. Sorry Gatomon, Sonata thinks it's cool and all that you went from penguin to cat, but you aren't an illegal idol.]}

video;

[sonati]

Grumbly! Grumbly's here now!

video; k done

[sonati]

Sonata looked all over for you!

She thought one of us ate you and 'Linda' until she found Orine. I told her it was impossible. _{[KIDS THESE DAYS]}

[uniquevalue]

Ah, so that happened to you, too? [ it's okay gatomon. bokomon feels you... ] I repeatedly told Makoto that none of us would do that, but she wouldn't listen either...

H-Hey! It's not that impossible, you know... And besides, you said that I probably wouldn't die if that happens. Which isn't the same at all!

[uniquevalue]

[ but that aside, the relief she feels at actually seeing Sonata is making her tear up a little bit. ]

But I've been looking for you and everyone else, too! I met Orine before, but... we really aren't the only ones here, are we?

[sonati]

_{[Just a saaad little headshake.]}

Sonata looked all over... I didn't see Sis-Sis, either.

[uniquevalue]

Then I guess it really is just us... [ sighs a little ] I mean, there's no helping it now, but still...

[uniquevalue]

A-Anyway, Sonata, where are you staying at right now?

[sonati]

Sonata's room number is F1 007. Where's Grumbly staying? Sonata will come visit!

[uniquevalue]

... Wait, then that means we're actually staying in the same apartment... [ which meant she was worried about it all for nothing huh... ]

But my room is on the third floor. It's room F3 008, to be exact.

[scratchitti]

[One of Sonata's roommates is watching all this from the hallway, looking annoyed by the noise... at least until her partner turns into a white version of his own]

Huh, that's new.

action;

[sonati]

_{[Sorry, Neku, if worse comes to worse you could always start up a 'Get Sonata to move out' fund.]}

How did you do that? Can you change into something else, too?

One question at a time, please.

action;

[scratchitti]

[He walks out fully, BlackGatomon jumping down to investigated her face-twin]

Calm down, they can all do that.

action;

[sonati]

Thank you.

You mean... they can change into different animals like Slowpoke did?

action;

[scratchitti]

Yeah. It usually doesn't happen randomly like this... I think.

Yeah, not normally. Not that I mind being a Gatomon all the time~

action;

[sonati]

It's certainly easier to move around this way.

That's really neat! _{[Eyeing the Gatomon duo]} And they can be different colors, too? Sonata can't wait to see what else they can change into!

[scratchitti]

We're different colors 'cuz I'mma Virus!

...Whatever that means. So what, you the new roommate?

video;

[risette_truestory]

How cute! Are you an idol too?

video;

[sonati]

Mm! _{[She nods.]} Sonata is a 77th generation understudy in AKB0048.

video;

[risette_truestory]

AKB0048?

[ No. Doesn't ring a bell. It could be possible she wasn't from her world. ]

So, you're a trainee then?

video;

[sonati]

Yeah, yeah! But, one day, Sonata will become a successor, too!

video;

[risette_truestory]

...



[ Eh? ]

Successor? [ Was it the name of the idol group she wanted to join. ]

video;

[sonati]

Successors are... the ones who took on the names of the original AKB members! It has something to do with the soul, I dunno.
