You Can Do It, and Even If You Can't, We Won't Think Any Less of You, Man!

[...there's a bit of a pause, but there's the sounds of rummaging and a pen tapping on the table nearby. He's heard and seen a lot of people around now that have been talking about the closed space, and it's intrigued him. After all, the SOS Brigade is looking for mysteries of the world, right? Partially. With Haruki gone though, who's going to solve this mystery? Taichi is currently plotting and sitting inside the Brigade Clubroom. This may end horribly.]

Hey, listen up! Anybody who disappeared to that weird place a few days ago, report to me immediately in the SOS Brigade room. I want to ask you a few questions about it.

In addition, even with Haruki gone...a few of our other members out of commission for now, we're still having a meeting! Be on time, or there will be punishments! [Yes, he did just bypass Rena and Usagi as taking over the meetings. You have a power-tripping 12 year old. WHAT WILL YOU DO?]

[[ooc: IN ADDITION. If anybody would actually like to run this like a fail!Brigade meeting, I can comment onto this entry to signify the start of the meeting and people can thread with each other and whathaveyou. Let me know if y'all want that as an option.]

[Give it a few moments before the journal clicks on, and suddenly there's a loud booming voice amplified more than usual]

Okay hey, listen up! Mikage, Al, Naoki and Atsuro, report to House 48! Haruki put me in charge for advertising, and I've got everything already planned. Move it!

Oh, and Hanyuu, you're supposed to help too and I've got a special assignment for you. Report to House 48 right away.

And everybody else, get ready for the best thing ever! The SOS Brigade's taking applications for new members. You know you wanna join, what are you waiting for? Seriously, just do it already!

[Edit: Anybody in House 48, feel free to threadjack each other as well.]

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]

[One can assume that when Tear pulled Taichi's body from under the burnt treehouse, she set him in the back yard of house #48 rather than in the middle of nowhere and he's been there for a few days. But today, there's suddenly the sound of loud choked coughing as he tries to clear smoke from his lungs along with a few gasps of air. It stops after a few moments and there's a few sounds of the boy struggling to stand up on his own before a flop on the ground as he just lays on the ground. Though not as bad as he was when he first died, there are a few burns marking up his body and the feathers of his wings have been burnt up pretty bad too]

...what?

[as mentioned to a few different people, Taichi has finished building his treehouse in the forest and so today he's lounging around in there pretty pleased with himself. Laying on the floor of his treehouse with his hand dangling out the door, he has his eyes lightly shut]

Sometimes I wonder if it's a good idea knowing the future. Sure a lot of bad stuff happens but I already know that we're going to win. Daisuke gave me a sum-up. But now Izzy's here too and he's older too. What gives? Oh well, at least I know I'm still the leader!

And at least I don't have to worry if I get into a good high school or not. And I definitely don't have to worry about looking stupid in the school uniform haha. I wonder if future-me has a girlfriend...I bet I get one before Yamato! Girls love athletes instead of stupid harmonicas.

Seeing Izzy here makes me sort of miss being home though. It's an improvement of the Digital World, that's for sure. Here we don't have to worry about making camp and where our next meal's coming from and running away from giant monsters. But...let's see. If it's May already, and I was at camp in August, and I got here right as I was leaving the Digital World in Earth's time frame of August, then that means I've been away from home for ten months? No wait, that's not right. Man this whole time thing's completely out of whack, why can't time just be normal?!

Maybe my friends don't even notice I'm gone. The other Chosen will, they have to, but my school friends and the soccer club, I wonder if they do. And Mom and Dad, they've got to still be worried about me and 'Kari especially since we didn't come home from the Digital World.

But I guess there's really no need to worry about it...I'm sure the others are doing just fine. Izzy said they were...they're capable of taking care of themselves. Maybe the Malnosso will bring everybody else in. I hope not, because that would kind of suck, but then at least we'd be together and could work on getting out of here. Oh well. For now, I'll just enjoy the sun while it's around.

At least that's the same as home.

[[ooc: just as a small clarification, Taichi's referred to Koushiro as Koushiro to other people out of respect for his friend but when it's just him talking to himself/actually to the redhead he'll refer to him as Izzy as a sign of friendship. Same concept of people referring to him as Tai versus Taichi the more they know him.]]

This whole place...I don't like it. Everybody's acting really weird and it's scary. I want to go home. Now. Right now. Hikari and I can't stay, it's way too dangerous but what am I supposed to do? Maybe it'll all just go away on it's own; I'm not going out there, no way, no way, no way!

[ooc: ...if you can't tell, Taichi's courage/adventurous mannerisms have gone byebye. Make with that what you will]

Worst. Week. Ever.

[cue the laughtrack playing suddenly]

I have no idea what's going on with this experiment...but could you give it a rest already?!

Okay so...if I'm getting this right, there was the Digimon Emperor who used dark rings and control spires but then he became a good guy and there were these monsters, Archnemon and Mummymon who were trying to mess up the Digital World and then BelialVamdemon but we killed him because there're Chosen Children all over the world and I ended up traveling to France with Takeru.

So this is what it's like to know the future...cool! Wait 'til I get back and tell the others how we get to help save the world again. I wonder if they're gonna believe me. Even if they don't now, when it actually happens they'll believe me so hah!

There's a bunch of new people here. Does that happen a lot?

Luceti's not too bad. There's always food and a place to sleep and the people seem pretty nice at least, plus it's got a lot of area to cover. But I have to go to school, even if it's not like school at home.

I wonder how the cat's doing. Mom and Dad too.

Meantime, I'm gonna go explore those mountains. Who knows what's up there? Daisuke, are you still coming with me?

[here are the sounds of Taichi yelling as he falls through the air, landing on the ground with a loud thud]

...what kind of wings don't work for flying!?

Actually...what kind of place gives a person angel wings anyway? Maybe-maybe I'm turning into a Digimon? No, that can't be it; turning a kid into a Digimon, what a dumb idea. Taimon.

This definitely isn't home, I know that much. Are we still on File Island? Where are all the Digimon then? And where're my friends?

HEY, AGUMON! HIKARI, SORA, YAMATO, ANYBODY OUT THERE?
