「 ☆ 」video [Viximon]

[whitefeather]

[The video starts some distance away from a scene.

Joshua is sat crosslegged on the floor within Team Fabulous HQ, apparently enjoying some peace and quiet thanks to the fact Hibiki and Elec Man are nowhere to be seen. Floramon sits opposite from him, and the pair appear to be enjoying taking tea together. And yes. Floramon appears to be sitting in the same crosslegged fashion only within a flower pot that Joshua's managed to procure. What's better to a plant-type digimon than feeling the soil underneath your feet, after all?

The pair appear to be chatting, and it's not long before Floramon says something about him keeping his strength up and eating more often - leaning forward to... well, alarmingly, pour tea out of what could be taken as her nose. Joshua holds his cup forward, and takes a sip without even a touch of recoil, as if it's the most normal thing in the world.

There's a bristle of yellow fur just about viewable from the side of the screen, and a very dejected, small voice. The camera turns around, displaying a very saddened-looking foxblob. Viximon, apparently.]

...I think he's going off me...

I haven't digivolved yet. I thought I would by now. Rookies are so cool, and they can fight... I can't fight anything. All I can do is poison things. That's not fighting.

I don't know how I can get him to like me again.

[ while Makoto can certainly empathize with Viximon there, it doesn't mean she's good at actually encouraging... Being positive was never her strong trait. Still, even if she can't be as encouraging as others, she can't just leave this alone. ]

Even if it's just poisoning things, it's still something only you can do, right? I-I'm sure there will be a time when that comes in handy... You just have to wait for that moment!

[The dejection in her voice is pretty profound.]

I don't know, I think insectoid digimon can too... and they've got claws. And stingers. And teeth. I've got a fluffy tail.

[uniquevalue]

W-Well, that's... a good thing! [ she has no idea what she's saying anymore, but... ] That's right, because you don't look intimidating at all, no one will expect you to poison them with a fluffy tail. You can use that to your advantage!

[whitefeather]

[....Guess who's eyes just got massive.]

...the element of...
surprise?!

[uniquevalue]

... Yeah, you're right!

[ wait why is she agreeing?!? she's the one who (accidentally) got to that idea in the first place ]

--I mean, no one will expect someone who looks cute and harmless to be a threat for sure. That way, you can sneak up on them before they even know it!

[whitefeather]

...You're right! I'll poison his tea, then he'll see how useful I am!!
Not enough to kill him, but...

"The element of surprise!" It's perfect, thank you, thank you, thank you!!

[uniquevalue]

W-Wait a minute...! Stop right there!

[ WHAT HAS SHE DONE. frantically calls out to Viximon before the digimon tries to do anything rash. ]

... It's a good strategy in battle, but you really might want to rethink that plan...

[whitefeather]

[And she blinks! ...And turns dejected again, flopping back down to the floor.]

I think I understand what you mean...
kind of...

[uniquevalue]

I-I'm sure there's still other ways you can prove to your partner that you're useful! Just... not one that involves poisoning him...
