I wonder why this one's having so many problems issuing out her love life.

I'M A GUY, DAMMIT.

Sure you are. Why else are you staring---

Staring at what?!

Staring at Train so girlishly!

...

WHAT PART OF GUY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!

Right, right. And we're supposed to believe you, Miss Crushing Over Train~

...

*sound of metal being slipped out of something*

What are you doing?

Ancient Hikari Family Move Number Thirteen! Five Piercing Points of Torture!

*sound of stabbing over and over again*

AYIIIIII. And you're supposed to be in bed!

SAY ANYTHIN' ABOUT THAT AGAIN 'N NEXT TIME I WON'T BE SO NICE!

Yes, sir!

Good... Now anyone else want to try that?

No, sir!

Very good.

Yeah, I'm sure they are! Any family waiting for you back home?

(sheepish laughter is heard) That would be a good idea, Hoshi! Wouldn't want my new teacher to show up with unexpected injuries of his own, right?

A cakewalk, huh...? Hopefully nothing else besides that!

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Yup! My mama and my father as well as my grandmother and my grandfather.

Right! So, let's do it!

Hopefully, yeah!

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

That's awesome! My parents are waiting back home for me, too; they run a bakery just like the one I'm running now.

...Wait, you're outside the bakery right now?! Wow, that's a pretty fast way to get here! How long did it take?

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Ah, nice! Is that how you get by?

...aha, no, no! I'm in the Royal Base hospital, 'cause of a few things. I had to get stitches in my back, unfortunately.

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it is! Though back home, my parents are the ones who would run the bakery instead of me. I'm pretty sure they'd be surprised to see my progress here!

Are you okay?! I haven't been by the Royal Base in a few months. What happened to you that would require you to get stitches in your back?

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

I'm sure they would. After all, it's like passin' something down.

[Locked]

Friendly fire gone wrong the first time that opened up the scar on my back. Then, someone from my world came, throttled me and hasn't been heard from since.

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

'Passing something down...' Wait; you mean the whole heritage thing, right?

(Locked)

Ouch; it hurts to accidentally get hit by friendly fire! Anyone I know? ...Wait, you were THROTTLED?! How much longer are you gonna be in there?

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Yup. Or inheritin' somethin'.

[Locked]
Yuka, but she and I have made up since then. Not sure. I'm still in a lot of pain from my back. That, and I'm on morphine, so. And yup, was throttled. Bastard gave me a cut on my arms as well as my back, makin' it worse.

(Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

Wow! You've met Yuka-chan?! She used to work with us at the bakery, up until she decided she could help out better at DATS full time that is; she even took her boyfriend along with her.

Aw, nuts! That's too bad...looks like I'm gonna have to find time to make a trip down to the Base so we can officially meet, you know? It would also be a good chance for you to try out some of the bread you'll be making.

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Yup, I've met Yuka-chan. She was the first one to help me figure out the Digital World because I didn't know technology as well as I did. Still don't know it, either.

Y-You don't have to, Takato!

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

That's nice of her to do! Not many people would go out of their way to help a newcomer to this place, but Yuka-chan's not like many people. Ruki's like that when it comes to the Digivices; don't tell her I said that, either.

Why not? If you're not gonna be able to move around for a while...!

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

It was and I'm glad she did it. It must be nice to be here, huh? I won't.

Well, alright! You can come, Takato!

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but after being here for pretty much over a year and a month you kinda start to miss home just a bit.

Thanks, Hoshi! Since I've never actually found time to visit anyone at the hospital in the Base, when are visiting hours?

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know the feeling. Back home, I think I've been away from home for a good six or eight months or so.

You're welcome! And hm, lemme go check, alright?

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

I think I hit the 8 month mark back in...July, maybe?

Sure; no problem!

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Aww. I'm sure your parents worry about you a lot.

'kay, I think you can come!

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

They do, but they know that I'm out saving the world with my friends so they're just hoping that I get back home in one piece.

That's great! 'Course, it probably helps that I'm also a member of DATS too, just not full time.

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

How ironic, 'cause back home, I'm fightin' to save my world, too.

Probably! I've been looking to join DATS, too.

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

Really? That's awesome, Hoshi!

Seriously? That's great to hear! Full time, or only part time?

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Yup! Been training for that all my life.

Part time for now.

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

To save the world? Wow; talk about a career goal!

So, you'd be a Secondary member then? Just like me!

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Well, this tournament only comes every 500 years!

Odd how destiny works, huh?

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

Every 500 years?! Are you serious?!

Yeah, pretty odd how destiny works out...!

Re: (Locked)

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Completely and totally!

But anyways, if you wanna come right now, go ahead!

Re: (Locked)

[tamerofmiracles.livejournal.com]

...Really?! No one would mind if I came in at this hour?
