TDM #1 - "Welcome to the Digital World"
I'll come to see you soon
It's best to forget the unnecessary things
There's no more time to be fooling around...
[ Prompt #1 ]
[ "Welcome Tamers" ]
[ "Welcome Tamers" ]
So, you've answered "yes" to the question asking you if you want to save the world. You've gone through the Digital Gate. You've been greeted by Sunflowmon and Nanomon, and told about Tamer Union and the fact that you're to be partnered to a Digimon. What's next?
As it turns out? Ain't no party like a Digimon party because a Digimon party don't stop, and this Digimon party is the biggest and brightest that's been seen in Access City in quite some time! Finally, the Tamer Union is reborn! All these new Tamers and their brand new Digimon are gathered together here in the hopes of bringing peace to the Digital World once more. And what better way to welcome them with a party?
The streets are lined with streamers and festive blinking bits of circuit boards. Multicolored transistors glow softly, lighting the way for revelers who might not yet have a sense of the layout of the town. But hey, if one wishes to step off the beaten path to explore a little more, they're not going to stop you. They all lead to an open area in Access Park, where the main thrust of the party can be found. There’s music being played all night, which might either be new to you, or might be familiar; Tamer Union’s database has samples from across the multiverse, it turns out!
That’s not all, because all of of Access City is now open to new arrivals, from Omekamon’s Arcade to Club Zeal. What’s that? Oh yes, every single establishment in the city will be open all night. It’s a citywide party, after all. Don’t have any BITS? Every single shop is willing to waive their fees… within reason, that is. No one’s going to let you empty out an entire place of business after all.
It’s not all fun and games, though. This is your chance for you and your Digimon partner to meet and get to know one another. Maybe they zero in on you during the party. Maybe the two of you have already found one another. Either way, a night like this may set a precedent for how the two of you you will get on for the future.
[ Prompt #2 ]
[ "Refreshing Refreshments?" ]
[ "Refreshing Refreshments?" ]
No party would be complete without food and drink, and this one's no exception. Access City has gone all out and brought in the widely renowned digital chef, Ebidramon, the proprietor of Ebidramon's Eatery, a restaurant that can be found deep within nearby Bitrot Swamp. Digimon come from far and wide to sample Ebidramon's cuisine, but today, the cuisine has been brought to you!
Ebidramon's palate is said to have ascended beyond human comprehension, and so some of the available foods might not be to everyone's tastes. There's sausage and jellybean pizza and banana and anchovy sliders. There are potato chips and a mysterious "Digital Dip," which the more adventurous among the new arrivals may be able to discover is a delectable blending of marshmallow fluff and caviar. Cookies of all kinds are available as well, ranging from benign chocolate chip to chocolate sandwich cookies with a variety of fun fillings like espresso and buffalo wing. There are asparagus-clam smoothies and a wide selection of the finest sodas and fruit juices available from all across the island. What’s more, some of the strange fruits from Material Jungle have been brought in—the kinds that might leave you turning purple, coughing up polka dots, or making you really energetic all of a sudden.
There's something for everyone, and you can eat as much as you want! This stuff isn't going to keep as leftovers.
[ Prompt #3 ]
[ "They're Throwing What?!" ]
[ "They're Throwing What?!" ]
It's the next day. The party has come and gone, and all that's left of it is stuff to be cleaned up. But hey, that's a job for civil servants right? Though they won't say no to anyone offering to help out.
But before any of that can happen, an incident occurs. Coming up from the city's sewers are the likes of Numemon and Geremon. What are those who usually dwell among the muck and the grime coming out of their hole for? Well, they know there was a party last night, and they're angry over not being invited.
(The whole city was invited. The Numemon and Geremon were simply told not to come if they were going to be a nuisance, and they took that to mean not to come at all.)
Putting aside the inequities of Access City vis a vis the filth dwellers, the Numemon and Geremon are intent on trashing Access Park where the party was held and vandalizing as many places of business as they can. Whether that be by throwing their pink "sludge" everywhere, or by trashing the party equipment and furniture, they're intent on raising a lot of really, really dirty hell.
Those caught up in the chaos must either dodge the so-called "goo" they're flinging or work to stop them. Thankfully, Numemon and Geremon aren't too difficult to deal with, despite their being Adult Levels. Tamer Union didn't intend this to be the first challenge Tamers faced in coming to the Digital World, but it seems fate itself had other ideas.
Mod Notes - Please refer to the Game Info/FAQ for details on how various things in this game work. If something is not covered there, we have the What Are Digimon? page, the Glossary of Terms, the in-progress locations post, and profiles for Digimon up to the Child-Level. If something isn't covered there and you have further questions, or questions about the TDM itself, there will be a space to ask the mods themselves. Also, watch for posts where you can directly interact with some of Tamer Union's key NPCs!
no subject
...The local Digimon might know which does what. I can ask.
Nooooooooooooooooooooo~!!
[ And now there is a worm lasso around Ken's ankles. Not a lasso made of Wormmon's silk. Just. Wormmon. Curled.
He can't quite reach but OH DOES HE TRY. ]
Kenchankenchankenchanstaywithmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....
no subject
[ Petitmon. Kaiba frowns up at the cloud, only to be rewarded with little glitter pieces in his hair. He angrily brushes it off and looks at the ground. .]
...is your Digimon okay?
no subject
[ Ken kneels, the better to retrieve bugge. ] There, there. I won't leave you, Wormmon--
[ Aaaand now Ken has a worm stuck on his face. ]
no subject
[ There's Petitmon, wiggling out of Seto's arms and awkwardly flying over toward Wormmon. She hovers at a safe distance, wobbling slightly.
Seto watches this with a frown. At least the sudden glitterstorm is ending. ]
...Is that what partnering means? Always together?
Yup! Isn't it great?
...I'm not sure yet.
[ Petitmon harrumphs, and when Seto crouches awkwardly to join the group she vaults onto his head. She can totally balance enough to do the hat thing. ]
no subject
[ With that, Wormmon detaches from Ken's head with a pop and swoons backwards into his partner's arms. He expended all his extra energy panicking, and now must rest.
Ken holds him gently. ] There might be an adjustment. But you're sure to be thankful to have met your Digimon partner. I'd be lost without Wormmon.
[ Wormmon, who has really showed off his competent side thus far, right? ]
no subject
[ She says it with such confidence that Kaiba can't help but smile, lifting a hand to steady her on his head. She's sweet....he finds himself growing fond. ]
...That means we have to brave the side effects of the food, doesn't it. Did you two figure out anything that was relatively safe?
no subject
[ He doesn't exactly want to make that same claim about Tamer species, though.
Ken picks up a plate of chips and...are there rocks in this dip? ]
If I recall correctly, a Digimon ate this, to no effect.
no subject
[ Kaiba lifts Petitmon gently, settling her back into the crook of his arm. His free hand offers a dipped chip, and Petitmon nibbles carefully. Her wings flutter with excitement! ]
It's really good! Nice and tough! Are there any jewels?
[ Kaiba looks at her, thinks a moment...and sighs. ]
Some legends do claim that dragons eat gems. It must be true. You're going to bankrupt me.
Don't worry, Seto-kun! I'm gonna be really good at finding shiny stuff to eat!
[ ...maybe everyone else should worry, then. ]
no subject
Really?
[ Wormmon nods, sleepily. Ken smiles and retrieves a shiny rock from his pocket. It isn't of any value, but it is pretty.
He places it on the table next to Petitmon. ]
After we landed, Wormmon found this. Eat it, if you'd like.
no subject
Even he knows that this is a gift. ]
...You'd do that for us?
I'll find you something really cool, Wormmon! Don't worry.
[ Petitmon is really chomping at the bit to eat, wings fluttering like mad. ]
no subject
Frendsr....niiiiice.
[ And that would be Wormmon dozing off, a bubble of webbing emerging from his mandibles. Ken adjusts his arms so Wormmon will be more comfortable during his nap. They've had an exciting day, hm. ]
no subject
[ Petitmon's eyes sparkle as she chomps down. How delicious. She makes quick work of the rock, and then Kaiba reels her in. ]
Let's be quiet, Wormmon needs his sleep. You probably do too.
[ Kaiba whispers softly to her, making a gentle rocking motion. The Digimon definitely need a nap. Petitmon yawns, drawing the slightest smile from Kaiba...and then he whispers across the way to Ichijouji-kun. ]
They make friends so easily...hm. Guess it wouldn't hurt to schedule them a playdate, if you have room in your book.
no subject
And this one? Absolutely. ]
I'd like that. We're pretty flexible...
[ But specifics are more helpful! Ken considers this. It's good to maintain as regular a schedule as possible, without resenting interruptions...so, if he remains living an approximation of his real-world lifestyle while assisting this world... ]
Until and unless Tamer Union business arises, I'm available daily from 6 am to 10 pm.
[ Ken is, perhaps, the human manifestation of the color "gray". ]
