[You thought one bad sweater was enough? THINK AGAIN. Yes, it seems that Guilmon has discovered the joys how hideous attire, and he faces the video with a grin far too huge considering the circumstances.]

Everyone, you should go talk to Wheeljack right now and get one of these! He's got the best sweaters ever. Guilmon's looks cool, doesn't it? It's got diamonds and three different colors and it's fuzzy. Guilmon's never worn something fuzzy like this before. Do you think Guilmon could hide dark powers under a sweater, or is that just for scarves?

[...Yes, Kyubimon's speech still resonates with him. But, after a bit of laughter, his expression sobers a bit.]

Oh, and does anybody know ways to cheer people up? Takato's really sad right now, and he's been acting funny ever since the training party. When Guilmon asked why, he said something about Juri and Ruki, but I don't really know why. Juri and Ruki are our friends! And isn't it normal for friends to spend time together? Or is there some other way people are together that Guilmon doesn't know?

[ooc: Though the threads aren't finished yet, Takato found out about certain things at the training party. This is Guilmon's response... and also sweaters.]

So... Why are there Digimon chasing around Culumon... And why is he green?

[ Sora is puzzled by this. amused! but puzzled. Vixie, the Renamon, just seems to be smiling about it. ]

It seems like fun. Maybe I should join in?

[ Ryudamon... just shakes his head. ]

Just what we need. More Digimon running about and making fools of themselves.

[ Vixie sticks her tongue out at Ryudamon. a habit that she has picked up from Sora no doubt. surprisingly? Ryudamon sticks it out right back. Sora's just over here. not sure if they are really fighting or not. ]

Ah ha... Guys...

(Takato's visage appears on the screen, calm as ever but a somewhat serious expression is on his face.)

So, it's been a few weeks and things are starting to look up a bit. Guilmon mentioned a while back he and I were gonna help out Chosen who were still getting the hang of evolving their partners past the Rookie level?

(A beat and he relaxes a little, smiling reassuringly.) That's still gonna happen, so if anyone wants to stop by over the weekend we'll have food for you and your Digimon to eat! Haha, trust me: your Digimon will need a lot of food, but not too much, to have enough energy to evolve.

[ Now that everyone is settling down to use their communication tools once again without trying to kill each other, Mikasa figures this is as good of a time it'll be for a statement of this nature. ]

Welcome back, everyone. [ To the city? To being normal? Might be difficult to tell what she means since she doesn't intend to clarify on it. ] Now that Titamon has retreated elsewhere, we should use this time to bolster our strength. There are many offering training parties and first aid lessons--please, if you don't know how to do either, you should attend just to have a better idea of what your comrades around you will do.

[ It's always best to know how your teammates might react to something so that you don't get in the way. A simple explanation she could provide if asked, but for now it too remains unspoken. ]

Before this started, Velvet and I made a roster of individuals who were still here. This roster located in the first floor of the building near the doors. I personally ask that all Digimon who hear this message pass the message along to others that when your Chosen has taken their leave of this place, you mark their names off so that we know not to go looking for them in times like this.

[ Which leads her to her next point: ] Are there any missing individuals or casualties that should be made aware of? I have the time to go look for both Digimon and person if there is anyone who has gone missing.

Thank you.

[When the feed starts up, Guilmon cracks a gigantic smile and waves at the camera.]

Hi, everybody!

[He turns around, surveying some of the rubble-- it looks like he's in the middle of Roaming Park... or what's left of it. Splintered remnants of trees lie in a heap in the background, and for a few seconds, he looks over his shoulder before turning his gaze back to the camera.]

I know there's lots of damage out there, and I'm sure most of you are still tired from all the fighting. We're gonna have to do a lot of cleaning up, I bet, and I've already seen people talking about it. But what Guilmon was wondering is if we could have some kind of big training party! ...When we're done cleaning up, anyway.

[Yes, he just used training and party in the same sentence.]

With everyone getting their crests, that means your Digimon can evolve to Ultimate, right? But they might not be used to their new forms and attacks. Plus, there could always be more bad Digimon out there. So, if we all trained together, we might be able to do an even better job if more bad guys show up. And now that Takato's here, I can evolve to all the levels-- all the way to Mega! So, Guilmon would be happy to help if you wanna go up against someone super strong.

[Oh, and there's something else, Guilmon realizes, once his stomach starts growling.]

Me and Takato were thinking of making a big bunch of Guilmon bread for it, if anyone wants to come! And you could bring other food if you wanted to. Fighting takes a lot of energy, and I know I wouldn't want to evolve on an empty stomach. That'd be hard!

So does that sound like a good idea? Guilmon sure hopes so...

[ Sora is feeling pretty good - despite how the market area looks. Kyokyomon rests on his head and Renamon is hovering over a shoulder. ]

Kinda glad that everyone is back to normal. It was starting to get kinda rough, you know? But hey... It's all over and we definitely kicked butt! I got my crest too and I'm pretty sure lots of us did. So the next time something happens, we're gonna be even stronger.

[ well. Sora thinks so anyway! just look at that face and try to disagree. he takes a moment to look over to Renamon with a grin. ]

And we get to make new friends. More help never hurt, right?

What’s up, Tokyo? Y’know, aside from the whole partner thing.. and Titamon! And the viruses! Man, it has been cuhRAZY these past few weeks! …Months? Haha! I guess the whole time we’ve been here, huh?

But that got me thinkin’! Y’know, we’ve all been so busy with ALL THIS STUFF, I feel like I haven’t gotten to know you guys as well as I should! Like, where are you from? Were you always a people, or did you used to be an animal? Or a half-robot-half-ice-cream-truck?! Who were your friends, what did you do for fun, that kinda thing! I wanna know!

I mean, I know I’ve got people I miss… But with everything else going on, sometimes we don’t get chances to think about them, or talk about them, and then we bottle it up and it feels really bad! So, yeah, consider this a chance to let that out. I wanna hear, even if we don’t know each other too well yet! No judgments.

...Oh! And Digimon, too! I'm sure you guys have a lot of things to talk about! Like, what's it like with all these weird people showing up and trashing your city all the time? That's gotta be a major pain, dude.

(The D-Terminal clicks on to momentarily show a blue hooded shirt before moving up to show -to people who know him, anyway- a very familiar set of yellow goggles, and the young teenager who wears said goggles has a decent but sheepish smile on his face; he's spent the last hour or so playing with Culumon before making his way out to find the room he's scheduled to head to.)

Ha, didn't think the D-Terminals could be used like this...oh, sorry! Hi! I'm Takato Matsuda, and I was told my partner could be found somewhere around here? His name's Guilmon, and he's real friendly and he likes bread...seriously, he REALLY likes bread so if he asks for some I'd get him a couple pieces! He's got a mark on his chest if that helps any.

One last thing, anyone out there who's at...F1 009? That's where Guilmon's staying at, so I guess I'll be rooming with him too and for anyone who lives there sorry for any trouble he's caused.

...And for any trouble he'll cause in the future I'm sorry about that too!
