[Today's video is not a long one. Monodramon is lacking his partner, and instead, has Terri the Zerimon perched on his head, periodically chirping.]

Hey.  Digimon.  What do you do when someone you care about's regenerated and you don't know yet if they're still... them?  The waiting's gonna drive me crazy.

[He scratches awkwardly at the back of his neck and sighs.]

This is stupid.

[He turns off the feed.]

[When the feed turns off, Monodramon is going to see Patamon nearby. He heard, obviously.]

I'm sure you friend is going to be okay, Cadet ...

[renegadedriving]

[For once, Monodramon has nothing pissy to say. He sighs.]

I feel like I let her down. Good soldiers don't let friends fight alone.

[calibrates_big_guns]

I'm sure you would have helped her if you could.

Sometimes, bad things happen, and you can't do anything about them, no matter how much you want. When things like that happen, you can't just let it eat you up.

. . . She died, Patamon. If I'd been there...

[calibrates_big_guns]

You might have gotten hurt too. And digimon don't die, remember? We just get little again, but we get better,

[renegadedriving]

But what if she's different now, and I could have stopped it?

[calibrates_big_guns]

You can't think like that, Cadet ...

[Patamon's ears droop, and he turns to look out the door he came in a moment ago, checking to make sure no one was around.]

Garrus thinks like that sometimes. He told me some friends of his got hurt because he wasn't there. He thinks it's all his fault too, and sometimes, he's so sad ...
