Word Count: 762 Prompt: Cooperation Featured Characters: Takuma Momozuka & Minoru Hinata & Kaito Shinonome A/N: Okay, so I said I was going to explore other characters, but there are a couple days where I return to the main eight. This is one of those days. There is some slightly spoiler-ish territory? But in reality, this is just a kind of made up scenario of a brainstorming session my three favorite boys go through. (I say favorite as if I don't love Shuuji and Ryo to a degree too, haha.) It's been a while since I've written them or witnessed them, so I hope it's not terribly OOC. But nevertheless, I persist! @surviveweek
They needed a plan, but they couldn't agree on anything. Well. Correction. The boys couldn't agree on anything.
Aoi, Saki, and Miu had slunk away to let them all work it out. Takuma, Minoru, and Kaito stood in a triangle of sorts, three points of one shape, but all vastly different-minded. The Kemonogami stood in the spaces between them, a triangle of their own, but they hadn't weighed in on this particular discussion just yet. It seemed they had a silent agreement to let them work it out on their own. For once, Takuma did wish that Agumon at least would interject with something, anything.
Minoru sighed, his hands propped on his hips as his entire body slumped with the motion. "We're going in circles. Obviously we need to do something, but…" His expression crumpled, and he kept his eyes fixed on his feet. "I'm not sure we should be risking so much with everything's that happened."
"There's probably no other way," Kaito insisted, his arms crossed tightly across his chest. If he didn't keep his hands contained, they would start flying, and then nothing would get done. "It might be the only way we'll all get out of here."
Takuma agreed with both of them, in some sense. Yes, it was possible that fighting their way out seemed to be the only way to get things done in this world, but Minoru was right—so much had been lost already. How much more before there was nothing left? No one left? And why was it that he was caught in the middle of this? Again?
Kaito glanced down at Dracmon, who stared back at him in silence. "Do you three have anything to add?"
"You know I'm going to follow you no matter what you do, Kaito," Dracmon said simply.
"And I'll follow you, Takuma!" Agumon said, raising one of his clawed hands. Takuma couldn't ask for a better answer from his partner. It was support, and he knew he was going to need it in the coming hours, even days.
All eyes turned to Falcomon, who held up his wings. "You both have valid points. We'll need to be smart about this."
"Exactly. The smart thing to do is to face it head-on. They won't expect it, after everything." Kaito gestured vaguely, referring to the mysterious "they" that was after them.
"But what if they do? We already tried something like that, and Shuuji—" Minoru's mouth twisted, and he saw the pain flash across Kaito and Takuma's faces. What had happened to Ryo had been terrible. What happened to Shuuji… indescribable. Even if Minoru tried, it just made his stomach twist. Swallowing back the bile that wanted to creep up his throat, he continued, "Bad things have happened when we've tried this."
Kaito shook his head in exasperation. "We know better now. If we all stick together, it should be fine. Takuma?" He turned to Takuma, who had retained the same thoughtful look on his face during this entire discussion.
"You're both right," Takuma began. "We need to be careful, and we need to be smart. I do think sticking together, at least better than we have been, will help. Sitting around rarely works out for us. We usually end up doing something rash."
"What do you suggest, Takuma?" Falcomon asked, his eyes seeming particularly wise at this moment.
Takuma closed his eyes to put words to the shapeless thoughts in his head. "We make a plan. A much more thought-out plan than before. We need to be more aware that failure could happen at any moment." He paused, letting out a breath. "Overall, we need to stay together. Keep an eye on each other. Be honest with each other." Slowly, he met Minoru's gaze and then Kaito's. "Then we can make sure we take care of each other."
There was a moment of silence, of contemplation. Kaito and Minoru kept looking at him, processing his proposal. Then they looked at each other and nodded.
"Sounds good to me," Minoru said, the slump disappearing as he straightened and smiled.
Kaito's smile wasn't nearly as wide, but Takuma knew it was genuine all the same. "Yeah. Let's try it."
If this had been a team meeting, Takuma would have suggested they all put their hands in. That didn't seem applicable here, especially not with Falcomon's wings or the eyes on Dracmon's hands, but he pretended they had done it. "Then let's go tell the others."
It was the most hopeful any of the three of them had felt in a long time.

Digimon Writing Challenge - Mix and Match: Hikari + Patamon + Courage
Tumblr media
[Yamato] [Takeru] [Hikari] [Sora] [Taichi] [Koushirou] [Mimi] [Jyou]
Summary: Hikari is finally able to make a courageous decision for her own sake - to save those lost in the world of darkness. [2nd part to: Takeru]
Word count: 355
She had heard the call several times before.
Countless times throughout the entirety of her life.
Voices, inaudible screams, asking for her, calling for her.
There were days, back then when she had been much, much younger, when she had just wanted to hide in bed forever. A blanket pulled over her head, pretending to at least muffling the noise. Telling her brother that she was just having a cold, nothing else, nothing serious.
Nothing otherworldly trying to get into her mind, soul, all that she was.
“Don’t worry”, she had whispered to put him at ease.
She never wanted to go, never wanted to leave, not like this. Never just because she had to fulfill an “external purpose” she couldn’t control. Not once in her life had she longed to be a tool, a vessel, an empty shell.
It had been years since a gate had opened for her like this.
But this time, it was unlike anything that had ever happened before.
This was the first time she felt the pounding in her chest for a different reason.
Not out of dread, not out of fear. None of it, not even a glimpse.
“Hikari… Are you sure we can reach him?”
She smiled down at Patamon in her arms, who, after having questioned her, was looking up to her anxiously. She had seen that expression before, especially in Taichi – right before he had jumped into action, time and time again.
And so, for her own sake, Hikari would jump too. She knew what she wanted now. There were still wishes and dreams far out of reach, set-backs she wished she could have helped to undo. A lot of regret – but also just as much hope.
Which was why she was the one who had called this time. Why she had wished for the gate to open. To find Takeru. To get him back.
“Don’t worry”, Hikari said reassuringly, with all the courage she could gather, before taking the final step into the other world: “Remember, as long as we want to and as long as he wants us too, we will reach him.”

Digimon Secret Santa Exchange 2023: Don't blame me (you started it)
Kuga Yuuya never texted her first. Until he did.
Written for @hallowed-nebulae for the @digisecretsanta 2023 exchange! :3
a/n: i'm your secret santa and (like i said on ao3 lol) i'm not entirely familiar with the digimon world series, or i wasn't until recently, so i hope i did your two favorites, Rina & Yuuya, justice!! i've enjoyed the gameplay so far of Re:digitize Decode and i enjoyed writing these two. i hope you have a safe and merry Christmas, and happy holidays!! <333 :D
Oh, and here's my Digimon discord server if you wanna yell abt digimon with us!
Read on AO3! || Read below the cut:
Kuga Yuuya did not texted her first.
It wasn’t something subjective—it was a simple, known fact! She wasn’t sure Yuuya texted anyone first. Often, when Rina texted him, Yuuya left her (very cruelly) on read. Sometimes he left her on delivered. Which was like, extremely rude, thank you very much.
(Granted, none of those messages were because of actual emergencies, but still. Her memes were nonetheless very important and warranted a response. But Yuuya had ignored her. Because of course he did. The jerk.)
So, naturally, when Rina’s phone vibrated and pinged, and Yuuya’s contact lit up her screen, Rina gaped. She blinked, surprised, and it took several moments to register that oh yeah, she should read the message.
Hey, Yuuya had written plainly. Jeesh, and he called everyone else boring.
Yeah, the world had totally ended. Sometime in the last few minutes, the world had ended and Rina had died and gone to an afterlife where apparently Kuga Yuuya texted her first.
She debated on calling him to see what was up, but that ran the risk of scaring him off because he didn’t even text, let alone call; so Rina leaned back in her chair and did what she did best.
Rina: hey!!!! ┌( ^◡^ )┘whatcha up to???
Yuuya: Studying. You use a lot of exclamation points, Rina-san.
Rina: and u text like the heir of the gigo company lol
Yuuya: Is… that a good or a bad thing?
Rina blinked again, her lips curving into a frown. She narrowed her eyes at her screen suspiciously, and who could blame her? Since when did Yuuya care about her opinion of him?
Rina: not bad!!! was just kiddin lol (≧_≦)
Yuuya: Okay.
She sent him another text that mostly consisted of emotes and exclamation points (perhaps proving his point), and this time, it took a while for Yuuya to respond. At least a good ten minutes.
Yuuya: What about you? What’re you up to?
Okay. Wow. She peeked out her bedroom window—yep, still snowing. Which meant it was still mid-December and she was still in Japan. Maybe. Probably. If she wasn’t… did it snow in the afterlife? To what afterlife had she been sent, for Yuuya to not only respond but ask about her in return? Smug, snooty Yuuya? What the hell was even happening? She couldn’t even begin to know the answer to that. 
Instead, she answered Yuuya.
Rina: just chillin!!! not really doing much haha it’s boring w/o V.V. here tbh
Yuuya: I see.
Another pause followed. Rina stood from her chair and made her way to her bed to sprawl out, phone in hand, as she awaited the continuation of their conversation. She got bored waiting on minute three and decided she couldn’t handle the suspense anymore.
Rina: so whats up???
Yuuya: I’m studying.
Rina: well duh u said that already i meant why did u text me
Yuuya: You text me all the time.
Rina: yeah! but u like never answer soooooo
Yuuya: Sorry.
Oh good god, okay. Yuuya, apologizing? Prideful, arrogant Yuuya? Maybe she’d gone to some alternate dimension—somewhere that wasn’t the digital world—where everything was the same except for one fifteen-year-old Kuga Yuuya.
She frowned again, this time in contemplation. As she pondered how to respond, she kicked her feet idly against her bed, tapping the back of her phone case if only to keep her fingers moving.
She wondered absentmindedly if his dad scolded him or something. From what she knew, Kuga Kenzou was more insufferable than Yuuya—which, of course, made sense considering he was Yuuya’s father—so it wasn’t much of a stretch to say he wasn’t all that great of a parent.
Her chest ached inexplicably at the thought and her frown deepened.
Rina: is ur dad being a bitch
Yuuya: Huh?
Rina: ya know ur dad is he being a bitch lol
Yuuya: I don’t see what he has to do with the conversation.
Then, after about a minute:
Yuuya: Father is always being a bitch.
Rina: lol!! i believe it honestly
And because Rina was a gremlin with no sense of self-control: 
Rina: his ass must really hurt from the stick shoved in it
Yuuya: Lol.
Rina blinked once more in surprise and then grinned at her screen because this was another new thing—Yuuya laughing at a joke? A joke she made? She didn’t even know Yuuya could laugh, much less over text. She didn’t know he even had a sense of humor.
They spent the next hour or so texting, with Rina sending memes (the normal amount) and emotes (also the normal amount) and Yuuya telling her that it was, in fact, not the normal amount. Eventually, the time between Yuuya’s responses grew longer and longer, and Rina assumed that he’d averted his full attention back to studying.
Rina: ur a fun texter lol
Rina: not as fun as me obviously but still fun just sayin
She sent it without really expecting a response right away, but she was surprised yet again when the reply came in only a few minutes.
Yuuya: Wow. One person approves of my texting habits.
Rina laughed out loud. This was a fun side of Yuuya to see.
(And no, it wasn’t because she felt a little warm inside that he seemed to trust her enough to make jokes with her.)
(She didn’t feel warm inside at all.)
(Yuuya was simply growing on her.)
(Like a fungus.)
Yuuya: Is this supposed to be an honor or a shame, since the person is Rina-san?
Her laugh quickly turned into a scandalized gasp as she stared down at her phone in offense. No, she changed her mind. Yuuya wasn’t growing on her.
“Rude,” she said aloud as if he could hear her, without any hint of fondness in her voice. None at all. "Yer such a punk."
Oh, who was she kidding—she sent him memes, shitposts, and festive, holiday-themed selfies every day after that for the rest of the month. If he was pissed about it, well, he texted her first.

Matt x FemaleReader
( Relationship headcanon)
_____________________
•Oh booooyyyy, it be a blessing on its own getting this Vegeta wannabe to like you, but if ya somehow blessingly are able to do it, congrats.
•Now ya gotta take care of a emotional unstable boy, who might be a bit clingy and cold at first but with time open up to you.
•honestly speaking, it may differ how the relationship is gonna be in terms of who asked first.
•If you asked, I think he be shocked at first but try act tsundere and cool at first but inside 100 Billion Atombombs are exploding inside of him and the overwheelming feeling of happiness.
•If he magicly was able to ask ya first, and ya say yes he be proud and happy, he would spend time with you and try to play many things cool.
•The main point of what I am trying to say is that if you asked him, he might be a bit softer then if he asked you first and it might differ where your relationships is heading off onto.
•If ya somehow get the chance to meet his Gabumon, Gabumon would actually be very happy for the both of you and try to spend time with the both you.
•If ya meet his friends, oh boy Tai is gonna tease him til both of them start to fight, but nope otherwise speaking Tai would be happy just like Gabumon and actually support the both of you.
•TK might be shocked at first but would be happy for his big bro, and support the both of you
•All the others would show simmiliar reactions and support ya and be happy for ya.
_____________________________
Alone time:
•Spending time with him would be relaxing.
•It would take some time til he opens up to you but he honestly would love and would appreciate you to you fullest.
•Him being Emotion unstable is gonna take time, but when he opens up to you, he finally is gonna feel the love that he carved for so dearly
•You would honestly be his emotional support teddy, and if ya expect some privacy, ya can forget it, as he will be 24/7 by your side.
•After some time he will soften up to such a great extent that you wont even think that the new Matt was once the old one.
•But truly speaking, ya both would be such a cute couple protecting another and caring for another til the end and everyone would find that cute and tease ya for it til ya both are red as strawberries.
_____________________________
(Hope ya enjoyed the short headcanon, first time writting such a thing but I do like this and I hope I be able to provide better things to you all.)

Yaaaaay I love Rex flashfic time! I'm not sure if you want weird stuff or stuff I know you'd like or if you have any preference so how about the Three Celestials, and 'radiance?'
There are many tales of the three guardians of the Digital World. Tales of bravery, of wisdom, of love. But chief among them, are tales of light.
Each of the Three had a light all their own, it is said. Each a light of their own domain, that represented what they valued, what they embodied, what they protected.
Seraphimon, with wings of unbreakable gold, had a light strong and pure and raw. His was a light that pierced the deepest, foulest shadow. He was a beacon to those who were lost, a guide through the fog. He provided strength to carry on, his was the light at the end of every tunnel, no matter how long. He was sword and shield both, to all who would wish for him. Those who wish to find their way, their purpose, their destiny, those are the ones who pray to Seraphimon.
Ophanimon, of infinite wisdom and unending compassion, had a light of unparalleled illumination. Guardian of the library, who held the history of the world in her grasp, could tell anyone everything about anything. She offered comprehension above all, to see and understand and accept the world around you as it was, to see beyond a books cover and to understand the intent behind the ink that carried the words. For Ophanimon, no question existed without answer, and those who had not a clue where to go, pray to her most fiercely
And Cherubimon, kind and gentle and patient, his was a radiance soft and warm. He who would shun no one, who would welcome into his home and heart any soul no matter how wretched. He would show a way out of sorrow, out of the cold and damp darkness and into the sun again. Forgiveness given without condition, love without need of merit. The beasts, hunted and loathed and alone, would come to him gnashing their teeth, tears streaming down their faces, crying for salvation. And he would provide, every time, his warmth drying faces and lifting their souls. In his light, they found a home.
(Seraphimon was lost, he had no recourse, no escape, all he could do was watch as darkness rushed in on him from every direction.
Ophanimon knew nothing, no book in her library could help her, no craftsmen could fix who she had so foolishly broken.
And Cherubimon...he was cold.
So very, very cold.)

reflection upon a moment (as tea settles or ink dries)
Rina knows a few things (her life, mostly, as it has been). Rina knows her new friendship with Taiga and the others. Rina reflects upon it.
Can be found on AO3 here, or under the cut.
Rina knows the smell of the trees after it rains, and the bite of cold air in winter. Rina knows the scrape of skin against stone and the rushing of wind through leaves. Rina knows schoolwork and classes, free time spent on a video game that isn't one, knows a little dragon that is not so little.
Rina knows Taiga, too. Taiga is like her. Not-quite-human. A little bit feral. Sharp teeth and nails kept just a bit too long, spine a bit longer than it should be (spine a bit shorter than it's supposed to be). Eyes wide open watching everything.
They don't talk about it. Rina's not really in Taiga's group of friends -- not like Taiga wants her to be. Rina and Taiga are the same, they both have the Decode, but Akiho and Nikolai and Yuuya (and that missing hole that's mireimireimirei) are different, too human for Rina to get used too. Too human for Rina to know how to trust.
It had been easier for Taiga, of course. It's Taiga. He makes friends easy as he breathes, and moreover he had spent much longer with Yuuya and Akiho and Nikolai, with these people, helping to save File Island and the digital world and whatever else. Rina --
Well. Rina had gotten kidnapped by Barbamon, torn from one world to the next, and look where that'd gotten her.
Which isn't to say Rina doesn't want to befriend them, doesn't want to be friends. She just -- doesn't know how. Making friends is easy enough. Keeping them is so much harder.
She wonders how Taiga does it, really, but maybe it's that shared adventure, shared trauma, that helped him get so close to the three of them (three, not four, because mireimireimirei is gone and not coming back and there's nothing any of them can do). Nikolai had been neighbors with Taiga, so it's no wonder those two are close, but Akiho and even Yuuya -- who is smug, now, snarky, but Rina hears that he used to be much worse, has grown a conscious now -- spends plenty of time with the two, both of them fitting in easily enough. Not like Rina.
Still. She joins with them on their meetings -- Rina used to live in Aomori but they moved to Shinjuku and secretly she's a bit sad, even if she's glad to be able to speak with Taiga and Yuuya and Akiho more easily. She misses the snow. Misses the colder weather. Misses when everyone talked in an accent like hers, before Rina had to start talking more like them to fit in. (She's not bitter. Just a little bit sad.)
But she is glad to be in Shinjuku. There are stationary stores here, and barkeries, and all sorts of things. Some things are familiar and some aren't, and she's dragged from place to place by the excitement of it all, Taiga and Akiho and Nikolai and Yuuya. And it's nice She likes it here.
Rina knows new things, now. The smell of Yuuya's expensive cologne he pretends he doesn't wear, the bell-like sound of Akiho's laughing. The way Nikolai's face scrunches up when he's smiling. The way Taiga looks more settled around them all, and the way Rina feels more settled, in this strange group of friends she's stumbled into. (She doesn't fit in with Nikolai, Yuuya, or Akiho, not like she does with Taiga, but she's getting there. Even if her smiles are a bit too sharp and her nails are a bit too long and her eyes aren't quite right, no one say anything. They just accept Rina as she is, ditzy and energetic and all over the place, just as they accept Taiga in his steady confidence and cheery optimism.)
(Rina wonders if the digimon can see where they are now. She thinks V.V. would be proud of her. It's a nice thought.)

Déjà Vu
Word Count: 511 Prompt: A New World Featured Characters: Professor A/N: Though I still haven't finished the game (because 2023 was a rough year, man), I still intended to celebrate Survive Week! This year, because of the prompts, I'm trying my best to tackle the POVs of the characters I maybe don't know as much about. Creative license, imagination, etc. are at play here. Annnnyway, today I decided to tackle the Professor, in as non-spoilery a way as I could. While I know things about him that my save file does not, I wanted to try and see what he was thinking when he first woke up in the "Digital" World. To my immense relief, I watched a video of Part 2 gameplay and discovered I was at least half right. Bonus! (Please forgive all the actual inaccuracies.) @surviveweek
If this was a dream, it sure was a strange one.
Professor gazed around at what appeared to be the same exact woods he and those children had been in. The key difference: red spider lilies. Which was strange… they didn't sprout up overnight. Unless he'd been out for much longer than a night.
Placing a hand on his forehead, he tried to collect his thoughts. He wasn't sure how long he'd been here, and he wasn't sure where the children were. Professor lifted his head and glanced around. Surely they would be around here somewhere? Unless they had already fled to look for each other. He could only hope none of them were alone.
Something was tickling the back of his mind. There was a strange feeling in his chest, too. (For a split second, there was a fear that he was injured or worse.) The trees and flowers around him were invoking a sense of déjà vu. But that made no sense; of course he'd been here before, he was just here. Yet the feeling was not going away.
He slowly climbed to his feet, taking a few steps to make sure he wasn't suffering some sort of injury. Good. That settled, he began looking for the children. He had to make sure they were okay. Despite his sense that they (that is, he and them) hadn't gone far from the shrine, he was filled with a strange foreboding. Almost as if this place was suddenly far more dangerous than it had been moments before.
It was hard to look for children whose names he wasn't sure of, nor could he quite remember at this moment. So he remained silent as he traversed the woods, searching for a sign, any sign, that could help lead him to the children. The surroundings really were similar to the woods he had been in just moments ago. However, it was much darker here. Much, much darker.
The déjà vu increased with every step he took, but Professor couldn't even begin to explain why that was. His eyes swept through the woods and along the ground. There was were strange echoes in these woods, made more eerie by a subtle hint of fog. Every moment he spent alone increased his sense of unease. Though he didn't have the energy to run, he had to hurry up.
Finally, he spotted some footprints. He wasn't a tracker by any means, but he could at least tell they belonged to human feet. As he peered in the direction they led, he heard a high-pitched scream, followed by a lower-pitched shout. The children!
Mustering what strength he had, he started jogging in the direction of the voices. Eerily familiar surroundings or not, he had to find the children. He felt a sense of responsibility, after all. He had to help them find their way back to their school group.
If I don't help them, no one else will. And he didn't even try to question how he knew this. Perhaps the answer would reveal itself in time.

Digiweek 2022 Drabbles/Ficlets - Red Shades Filling Up My Heart
One year ago, @dutchforstrangers​​ had decided to dedicate the entirety of Digiweek to a lovely little polyamorous OT3 fanfiction with the title “Shades of Red”. Even if I went into Digiweek 2022 pretty much unprepared, I’m still aiming to pay homage to the story by taking a look at how things may have developed afterwards...
🧡💜❤️  
Chapters: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Chapter 3: Humour
Tumblr media
Summary: Upon coming out to their families and during their visit at the Yagami residence, Koushirou and Sora discover that both Yuuko and her son have a thing for very silly fruit (and vegetable) puns.
Characters: Taichi Yagami, Koushirou Izumi, Sora Takenouchi, Yuuko Yagami, Susumu Yagami
Ship: Taikoura
Main POV: Taichi Yagami
Genre: Romance
Rating: T (for harmless puns that could be read differently if you had a mind like that)
Wordcount: 591
„Well, I’d say, the bigger the family, the more people will be able to take care of all the grandchildren, so you’re having my full approval!”
 Hearing that, Sora was the only one who broke into a chuckle (“G-grandchildren, huh…”), whereas Taichi just looked like he was about to sink in between the couch cushions. Koushirou had already been through this kind of talk and attempted to exchange a rather sympathetic glance with Susumu, who – just like Taichi himself – couldn’t believe what his wife had just said.
 They had decided to come clean to their families one after another, starting with, assumably, the easiest and ending with the most difficult one. The Izumi family had been both delighted – in Masami’s case – and ecstatic – In Kae’s case – to see their son in a fulfilling relationship, reassuring both Sora and Taichi that, regardless of what and how their own family model would look like, they would always have their full support.
 Before approaching the Takenouchi family, they were now sitting in the Yagami residence – Hikari had obviously already known about it all, just like the rest of their friend group did by now. And judging by the way Yuuko was beaming at them right here, she must have had her own ideas about her son’s love life and preferences.
 “It sure is a bit surprising, seeing how this is a rather… Unusual arrangement?” Susumu smiled a crooked smile, just to have Yuuko patting his shoulder, still in a rather excited mood.
 “I absolutely don’t see any problem here, dear, if you like a variety of fruits in a basket, you wouldn’t just pick the peach over the cucumber if you can enjoy both, would you?”
 This time, Taichi couldn’t suppress a laugh himself, still attempting to stop it with a loud “Pfffff”, but absolutely couldn’t keep it in. The mental image of that comparison had been just too vivid – and as silly as it was, he actually couldn’t remember the last time he had laughed a laugh that liberating, setting free a lot of tension in his stomach and chest. Meanwhile Koushirou had tried not to choke on his water and Sora looked like she was wondering whom exactly their boyfriend had inherited his humour from.
 “Yuuko-san, cucumbers aren’t-,” Koushirou coughed, still recovering – just like Taichi, who was unable to stop grinning –, but Yuuko was already on track again, waving her hand apologetically.
 “N’aww, don’t worry, I don’t have a single doubt that you three will be good for each other – Taichi has always been very vocal about his favourite fruits in the basket after all.”
 “M-mom…”, Taichi started, lips still curled into that ridiculous grin, so he could feel both Koushirou and Sora nudging him from each side, with the latter whispering slyly:
 “It is a fitting analogy, and she’s taking it with a lot of humour, that’s nice, isn’t it?”
 “Yeah, hilarious, pfff…”
 “I guess what we’re trying to say is…,” Susumu interrupted, collecting himself before giving them a gentle look. “Know that you are always welcome here.”
 “And please always come to me when you have a problem!,” Yuuko added eagerly, “Really, Sora-chan, Koushirou-kun, I have missed you two around, Taichi has never been a picky eater, but if I had known how much he was struggling, I would have intervened much sooner.”
 “Mom, really, that’s not necessary…“
 “Well… One could say we were all on a diet to some degree,” Koushirou mused – causing Taichi to break out into another laughter, while Sora patted his thigh with a sigh.

digimon secret santa exchange!
happy holidays and merry Christmas, @digitalworldbound i'm your secret santa for @digisecretsanta's gift exchange event! <3 i know you love 02, so i hope you enjoy 700 words of teenage takari being a chaotic duo~ (ft. older bros, yamato & taichi)
Or: Chaotic besties Hikari and Takeru have their older brothers wrapped around their fingers.
Thunk. Floosh.
Several seconds of silence ensued. Two pairs of eyes met, pooled with mirth and perhaps a little bit of regret. Takeru blew out a giggling sigh, which was a mistake on his part because it sent a puff of flour through the air.
Flour, which caked both of their faces. Because Hikari, in her attempt to measure the amount they needed for the cookie recipe she’d found online, had accidentally tipped the entire bowl, and now they were both covered in it.
And so was the kitchen counter. And the floor. 
“Oops,” Hikari whispered, although her expression threatened to break into a grin.
“Oops,” Takeru echoed with a tiny, held-back smile of his own.
“I don’t think that was supposed to happen,” Hikari said.
“...probably not.”
Hikari whisked her gaze around her kitchen, knowing that this mess was mostly her fault but finding it funnier than anything else. So when her composure broke and she finally began laughing, she couldn’t find it in herself to stop.
“You—you look ridiculous,” she gasped out as she doubled over in a fit of giggles.
“Me?” Takeru didn’t even sound offended—just equally entertained by their predicament as he, too, collapsed with laughter. “You look ridiculous! It’s in your hair!”
One of Hikari’s hands found the top of her head, making Takeru laugh harder because she’d only made it worse.
A doorknob jostled. Hikari and Takeru froze at the sound, meeting each other’s gaze again, and Hikari whispered in horror, “Uh oh.”
“We should hide.”
No sooner than Takeru suggested it did they follow through, but neither of them had time to find good hiding places—instead merely settling for ducking behind the counter—before the Yagami apartment door opened and two boys stopped in the entryway to remove their shoes.
“We’re back,” Taichi’s voice called, followed by the sound of shuffling. “There was a long l—oh. Where’d they go?”
“Gotta be here somewhere,” came Yamato’s voice. “Their shoes are still here.”
“Yeah, I see that. I have eyes.”
“Just making s—” Yamato stopped talking, and his footsteps came to a halt as well. Then, in a quieter voice: “...what the hell?”
Hikari bit her lip to keep her laughter at bay. She stayed hidden with Takeru as Taichi voiced his confusion about Yamato’s words, before probably seeing the kitchen for himself.
“Oh my god.”
Yeah. They were so screwed.
“What even happened in here?” Taichi went on. “How d—wait. Hikari, Takeru, I can see you.”
It was only when he stepped around the counter that Hikari started giggling hysterically again. She gave her brother what was supposed to be an guilty look—but, in all honesty, was more cheeky than anything—before drawing herself up to her full height.
“Hi, Nii-san,” Takeru said humbly to Yamato as he stood by Hikari’s side.
“What did you do?” Yamato asked.
“We were…” Hikari paused to scan the flour-covered kitchen with sheepish eyes. “...making cookies?”
Hook.
“Cookies,” Taichi echoed, deadpan.
“Uh huh,” Takeru said with a firm nod. “Cookies.”
Yamato gave Takeru a hopelessly fond look. “Kiddo. We told you we’d be back from the store to make dinner tonight.”
“I even recruited Yamato so Kaa-san wouldn’t kill us with her monstrous cooking,” Taichi added.
“But…” Hikari trailed off as she glanced at her best friend, who pouted. She took this as an opportunity to show off her best pout, too, aiming it at her older brother. “...we wanted something sweet.”
Line.
“Hikari. It’s like, four-thirty. We’re going to be cooking soon.”
“...and?”
Yamato and Taichi shared an exasperated look, which almost elicited another stray giggle from Hikari. Almost. She was still pouting, after all.
“Fine,” Yamato caved, surprisingly before Taichi. He sighed. “After dinner.”
Taichi’s expression turned sour. “Dude!”
“What? I can’t say ‘no’ to that face,” Yamato said and pointed at Takeru’s masterful puppy eyes.
Her brother, however, looked back at Hikari. Her pout deepened, and for a few seconds, Taichi stood strong. But only for a few seconds.
Sinker.
“Ugh, fine. Fine, we’ll make cookies after dinner,” Taichi relented with a sigh of his own. “Now help us clean up.”
Hikari’s pout disappeared in an instant, replaced by a grin.
She waited until both of their brothers’ backs were turned before she gave Takeru a victorious fistbump.

Ryo’s birthday drabble.
"Hi, mama."
It's my 16th birthday, and the anniversary of her passing.
"I went to summer camp like you wanted."
On second thought...
"It wasn't exactly what I expected. But still. Somehow, I managed to make some friends that I think might--"
Why is it still so hard?
People like me. I know that. Right?
I feel stupid sitting under this tree in my childhood park.
Kunemon shifts on my shoulder to nuzzle my face. "Kew." There is a simple comfort in the gesture.
"Yeah," I reply. "You're right."
Thank you, mama.
"I made lifelong friends, just like you wanted."
