We come here seeking an audience with the Chosen Children for the good of the Digital World, yet we find them playing in the streets!

Unacceptable. [Sakuyamon, Miko Mode, brandishes her haraegushi. Yep, she's pissed.]

Heed me, Chosen Children, for I will not repeat myself. With me are Petermon and Tinkermon, and they shall be given orders to stop this game at once.

They will enter one of your races, and should they win, these distractions will cease and you will focus your attentions on the villages who have been attacked, and protecting those that soon will be. Should you instead win [a bit of a condescending pause] then you may have your toys back.

Uphold your end of the bargain, Chosen Children, because we will ours. [A wave of her empty hand this time. Let the games begin.]

Connection terminated |

[[ooc: MINI-EVENT IS A GO! Petermon and Tinkermon will be entering the Chain Chomp Wheel race-- a battle course, appropriately enough-- so start your engines and get to racing! The race doesn't need to get to completion-- you just have to knock out their balloons. Should the two NPCs have three or less between them, then you win and you can race in Rainbow Road! Good luck!

In addition, if you haven't gotten your Digimon to get to Champion level yet, then feel free to do so now, because you'll need all the help you can get to win.]]

No shit, there is no way to make people stop being dumb. I learned that as soon as I could fucking talk. But maybe if I get angry enough they can fucking try to use those useless sacks of water they call brains enough to think about what they're doing!

Alex.

They're digimon. They're made of data. Their brains don't have water.

Is this really the time to be pedantic?

I think it's for the best to assume that they're going to do what they're going to do and we should work on figuring out what we're going to do about it. [Nodnod.]

How about we don't fucking play along? Some foxy tart thinks she can waltz in here and decide that since she doesn't like what we're doing, she can just take it away? Why the fuck, exactly, should we agree to this?

So then it's settled. We're going to race, and we're going to kick their butts so that they can't play along.

If it's foxpower we need, Guilmon's got it in spades.

Are you actually brain-damaged?

...How to put it...

You know how digimon digivolve and they look like different things but they're kinda similar? Guilmon digivolved into Kyubimon, and her face thing kinda looks like Kyubimon. I'm betting she's a higher level than Kyubimon because she's humanoid, and from what I've seen humanoid things tend to be a lot more powerful than monster forms, and if it's a later form of Kyubimon the fact that it went from monster back to human makes it even more powerful.

I'm just saying I don't think it'd be a really good idea to fight her.

And when in God's name did I ever mention fighting?!

So what do you think we should do, then?

Look at her initial speech. If you can cut through the bullshit, she's pissed that people are playing games while digimon are attacked. So, she's likely not inherently hostile.

We, to my knowledge, did not fucking know about any such attacks. All we have to do is actually tell her as much and point out that her fucking game is just wasting more time, since people like you are here. Once we know about the attacks, we've no shortage of selfless idiots who have no issue running off into the unknown to help. She gets to leave happy, you get to go play hero, and the rest of us get left fucking alone.

Mn... You've got a good point. That would be a good way to go about doing things.

It's not playing hero, you know. Helping people isn't a game.

And running off into a place we know nothing about isn't heroic, it's just stupid.

...You had a better idea there, too?

Do your fucking research?

Normally I'd agree with you... but we didn't exactly have time.

I dunno how much longer Taichi would have lasted in there, but considering we still don't know much more now than before we would probably have lost him.

"A stupid gamble paid off once before, so it's the right thing to do"?

Congratulations, you're how lotteries stay in business.

It's more like... Given infinite time, research is a really good answer.

The real world doesn't give us infinite time, so we have to play with what we have. Make sense?

Then at least ask the fucking cockbiter who showed up to whine about the attacks for her information on them, you stupid arse.

Oh. I was going to let you do that since you're better at asking questions. Then you started cursing instead... And then you said something about some weird battle bikini... And then I was like wait I know I didn't hear that right and I called you, and here we are.

I'll stop cursing when she stops being a fucking idiot.

You know, she could just be a little buggy or something. Cursing wouldn't help that.

Wouldn't that be akin to a mental defect?

Maybe. Remember a couple days ago where everyone was acting weird? It could be something like that that's keeping her from seeing things rationally.

Did that affect any Digimon?
