3rd Report [Video]

[innermonologues]

[ Squall is staring at this crest and tag with an annoyed look on his face. He was recently granted the crest of sincerity. He's been staring at it for a long while now, but he only just turned on his D-Terminal feed a few seconds ago. He glances over to the video now. ]

What am I suppose to do with this when my Digimon can't even digivolve?

Comments

[wall_flower]

...Hawkmon hasn't Digivolved either...

[But she'll hold up her crest. It's the crest of kindness.]

But I still got one...

[innermonologues]

So it seems they drop out of the sky at random.

[wall_flower]

...I don't think so. I think...something you say or do triggers it? I was helping Donnie when I got mine. Commander Shepard got hers when she was helping me. Ed...Ed got his while we were in the Dark Field...

[There's no way it could be at random...right?]

[innermonologues]

I wasn't helping anyone.

[wall_flower]

I don't think you necessarily have to be helping someone? I...don't know. I just don't think they're simply handed out at random...

[innermonologues]

They sure seem like they are.

[wall_flower]

I think it...I don't know. Just--Don't mind me. Maybe they'll be better explained later, right?

[She offers a small smile.]

[innermonologues]

[ He frowns just a little. ]

Maybe...

[wall_flower]

[A moment's pause before...]

I-I'm Marley. I don't...think we've ever talked before.

[innermonologues]

Squall and no we haven't. I don't get out much.

[wall_flower]

It's nice to meet you, Squall. I'm sorry we haven't spoken before now. I'm...usually better at talking with people.

[innermonologues]

You don't need to apologize to him. He makes it his duty to avoid as many people as possible.

Kudamon.

Well you do.

[wall_flower]

...Some people just are all that social, so...it's okay.

[Not everyone is like her, she knows, but she's not going to worry or ask about it.]

[innermonologues]

I'm keeping him company though so it's okay.

[wall_flower]

At least he has someone to be there for him.

[She may or may not have forgotten he is there. She's just happy that he has his partner to be there.]

[innermonologues]

And you too! A new friend!

[wall_flower]

Aww, you're sweet! Thank you!

[And she means it, really.]

[innermonologues]

He can be yes.

[wall_flower]

With the crest he has, I have no doubt about that!

[innermonologues]

It's not that big of a deal.

[wall_flower]

It's the little things that end up making a bigger deal than what we originally thought, you know.

[...It makes sense in her head.]

[innermonologues]

Only if you make it a bigger deal than it is.

[wall_flower]

But isn't it usually the smaller things that matter most? Like...saying hi to someone, offering a smile...that sort of thing...

[innermonologues]

[ He is giving her the most blank stare he could muster. ]

[wall_flower]

...Um...

[Guess he doesn't share her beliefs, then. She'll just...look away now.]

S-Sorry, I'm...I'll just--Have a good day!

[And she's going to hang up.]
