Hey guys if you see a little kitten with wings wandering around the village, be careful with her okay? She's tiny and needs to be safe. She's staying with us so um, guys, I adopted a cat!

Hey Yamato, it's August first! I'm coming back to the house right now, so get them ready for you-know-what, okay?

[Anybody walking through town will see Taichi heading back for Chosen House weighed down with kitten supplies and some other food, along with a couple of cans of frosting and some cans of paint. Feel free to stop him and ask why he has all of that]

...I'm...glad death's not always permanent here.

... [Okay screw this, that's a cling you're getting. We'll deny this ever happened, later.] ...me too.

It's scary you know? All the times we coulda died, all the times we almost did die in the Digital World and then I end up kicking the bucket here. Because I was being an idiot.

[Shifts around, come here bffl we're loving on you gdi.] ...just be more careful.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

I will. Just...["I'm freaked out still."]

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

[Has.]

...is it dumb to still be scared of it? [grip]

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

Don't think so.

→action

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

It was months ago though.

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

Yeah but you died. That's kind of traumatizing.

→action

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...I don't...remember a lot of it though. I remember how I died, and I remember coming back, but nothing in between. Aren't you supposed to go somewhere?

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

Maybe not, here. Maybe... like how you remember, when we fought Apocalymon, and he broke us down into data? We weren't... really anywhere, even if we do remember it. We also weren't really dead, so I guess that's a bad example.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

No but that makes sense. I don't know if I want to remember anyway.

...and you're gonna hate my next sentence...but I sorta wish Sora was here.

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

Probably better that way.

... [Goes really, really quiet.]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...she keeps us in line, you know? And she could help us take care of the kids, they like her too.

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

... [Nods, shrinking away slightly.] It's really stupid, you know? I think I'm jealous of her. Or... scared, or something.

→action

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[moving with him so he can't really shrink] Jealous? Why?

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

[Finally just grabs onto him and scoots sideways, so they're both sitting in the chair.] Same reason I was of you for a while; I'm afraid she'd do a better job with Takeru. Girls are better at that stuff, you know? And besides, she's been your best friend forever. I kind of suck at not being jealous of people that could challenge my placement in life.

...oh come on. [lightly headbutts him] I keep telling you that none of us are ever gonna be as good for TK as you are.

...you know, when we were all split up and I found him by himself, he was really upset because PicoDevimon told him that you left because you hated him. I've never seen him that upset, he really honestly thought that's why you left, PicoDevimon told him that you had said so yourself. But when he realized that PicoDevimon was lying, he was so pumped to go find you again.

He's a kid...they cling to people they enjoy. Sora reminds him of his mom. I'm like the fun uncle. You're his brother though, you can screw up a lot and he won't hate you but he could probably hate us if we messed up a lot.

[he pauses then, trying to think of how to address the last issue] ...Sora and I have been friends for a long time, yeah. And I...whatever, the point is, she can't replace you, you can't replace her. You guys are two different people okay? I value you both a lot but in different ways so stop worrying about Sora replacing you.

[Wibbles very slightly before mashing his face into Taichi's collarbone. ...This probably hurts a little, given he's still wearing your goggles. So he flinches, paws at your collarbone, and moves to take said goggles off his head.]

[jumps a little at that but doesn't bother moving him] ...what'd I say wrong now?

→action

[toomuchhairgel.livejournal.com]

Nothing. You just made it make sense, again, and now I feel stupid.

→action

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...of course I made sense. [hairpet] You're really way too hard on yourself.
