[Lopmon appears on the screen, a mix of concern and frustration on his face as he glances around quickly before turning his attention to the screen.]

S-so...I'm...only supposed to be monitoring the D-Terminal for if anything happens that we should know about. And I'm only supposed to make calls if it's an emergency, but... [He hesitates, glancing around again.] Well...I think it's important, anyway.

See...Fluttershy's been really upset lately. Ever since she and Beastboy... [He pauses, a look of anger passing over his face as he exhales shortly. Then he shakes himself out of it.] Anyway, ever since then, she's just been...sad. She won't leave our room except to go to work, and she'll only smile around the younger Digimon. And even they know something's wrong with her, 'cuz they ask her about it.

She keeps saying she's fine, but I know she's not...And...I-I don't know what to do. [He hates to admit that, because he was her partner. It was his goal - his purpose - to help her, and the fact that he couldn't was hard for him.

But this was about Fluttershy, not about him. And if this would help, than he'd gladly swallow his pride and do this.]

Uh...Twilight, Rarity...if you're seeing this...I-I know we haven't...really met yet, but...You guys are friends from Fluttershy's world, right? Maybe you two can help her?

Or just...anyone really...Please? Fluttershy...could really use some cheering up...

[He pauses for a moment, seeming to think over something.]

She's still working at the elementary school. She gets off at 2.

[With that parting statement, the feed cuts out.]

I'm sure you'll do great!

I'll have to stop by and watch sometime.

[strengthinkindness]

O-oh...w-well, if you'd...if you'd like to...I-I...doubt it'd be too interesting to watch, though...

[fuhrinkaed]

Naah... I'm sure that if you're teaching it it'll be really interesting to watch.

[strengthinkindness]

M...Maybe...I guess...

[fuhrinkaed]

Relax. I'm sure you're going to do great at it.

[strengthinkindness]

Thanks...

[fuhrinkaed]

Anytime... Drop me a line with your schedule, okay?

[strengthinkindness]

Okay...

[fuhrinkaed]

Alright then, I'll do the same.

If you come by, I'll try and get you the employee discount.

[strengthinkindness]

Thank you...that would be nice.

[Just makes sure there's a vegetarian option for her.]

[fuhrinkaed]

[There is one! He just didn't think of it.]

You know, you have a really good partner. He was worried about you... and that means you guys have to be best friends.

[strengthinkindness]

[She nods.] Oh yes...Choco has just been wonderful. He's always been looking out for me...

[She feels bad for making him worry...]

[fuhrinkaed]

And you look out for him, too.

Without one, the other can't get as far as normal. That's a partnership.

[strengthinkindness]

[She thinks about this for a moment. Then she nods.]

Yes...you're right...

[fuhrinkaed]

And we're all partners here. [Nodnod.]

[strengthinkindness]

[She smiles.] Right.

[fuhrinkaed]

So, you can rely on me, too. And I'll rely on you.

[strengthinkindness]

That...that sounds good to me...

[fuhrinkaed]

Great.

Do you want company, still? I'll stick around as long as you need... When you've had a bad day, there's nothing better than a friend, after all.

[strengthinkindness]

Y...Y-yes...I'd really like that...

[fuhrinkaed]

Great! [He didn't exactly want to leave her alone just yet anyways.]

...Oh! I should show you this really cool card game this guy named Shark taught me. It's neat!

[strengthinkindness]

Okay...

[fuhrinkaed]

[And thus, Ed did teach Fluttershy how to play Duel Monsters. And a good time was had by all (?)]
