[So as the feed turns on, it won't show the person recording. Instead, it will pan over several rather detailed anatomical sketches of several Digimon- Gazimon and Tailmon, Greymon and Kimeramon, Devidramon and Damemon... It seems, after a while, like most of the Digimon inhabiting the city have been drawn here. Each of the sketches also has several notes attached, along the lines of 'strong bite' or 'heat ray from hands', or 'weak vision'.

Rather than turning the camera to show herself, Alex will just talk from off-screen]

So, since a certain fuckhead of a biologist dropped off the face of the Earth before he got me the information he was supposed to, I've been working on a project of my own. A Digimon encyclopedia of sorts, all known ones, their abilities and hopefully weaknesses if we know those, too. Spread the knowledge and give everyone a better chance to survive whatever bollocks shows up this time. Any information on Digimon capabilities would help, if you lot care to share it.

Though, I did notice something while I was doing these.

[She shuffles the papers around until several Digimon drawings are on top- Sakuyamon Miko Mode, Lilimon, Bastemon, Lotusmon, and Darcmon, specifically.]

I get that Digimon are apparently spawned from the data from the internet. That explains why most of them appear to have recognizable forms rather than being completely alien to us, I think, something like Gazimon could have been given form by data on canine form and behavior. There's also a bunch of cat-looking ones, and since most of human output is total shit, I think that explains the Damemon as well.

But why the hell are most of the humanoid Digimon I've seen so far all women, and on top of that, they all look like that? Tits and bikinis, the lot of them. Even Lilimon is an inch of skirt away from showing the world if Digimon get underwear data or not. Where, exactly, is this Digital World getting its data on humans from? Why the fuck is it so skewed right towards knockers the size of my head and wearing less than a street corner hooker? Is this place just getting its data on humans from adult sites, or have I just been extremely unfortunate in my encounters so far?

But if they were always fighting, there wouldn't be villages or even this city. I don't think things would be in good shape here if Digimon were fighting all the time.

Didn't this city come from a human city?

Yeah, but there was a digimon city that makes up part of it too.

I should ask the natives about it, then.

Yeah. I don't think it's really going to hurt all that much.

[ Though if Alex asks like she usually talks she might have a few problems getting anyone to answer her. ]

... Did these districts come from the Digimon city, then?

[well, they're from the internet, they should be used to mindless profanity flying everywhere!]

Yeah, they did. Or at least the names did, anyway.

I mean, I'm not sure what the actual city of Tokyo looks like, since back where I come from it's not really a city, it's more like a region.

The Crests are a strictly human phenomenon, though.

... Are you sure? I mean, they didn't come from Earth. Maybe the crests were around in the past, and just show up for humans now instead of digimon?

If you're going to assert something like that, you'd need evidence.

... Guess I'm going to need to ask people who've been here before us about it then. Or see if there's anything about it written down or something.

Ah, good, we'll make a proper thinker out of you yet.

Well... my Mom did say that my dad was a professor... though I guess that doesn't really mean anything either. My brother definitely didn't get any of his smarts.

Anyway, I'm going to definitely ask some digimon about it and see if they know anything. I'd ask one of the experienced chosen if they show up again, but who knows when that's going to be.
