There is definitely a twinkle in Elecmon's eye when Gabumon answers. "That's what you'd think, right?" She scurries ahead a few paces so she can pose and do her best Themis impression. Which... really doesn't come across except in the sense of words repeated by rote.
"My kind has a dense amount of aether and we do not need to replenish it as often as the other Tamers I've seen might."
It's clear she doesn't really get aether. Other than by following it in a normal voice while falling into line with Gabumon again. "He also says aether is like data. So I guess if he has a lot of it, this does make sense." There's an approximation of a shrug. "Every so often he eats a regular, Themis-size meal or a snack." But hey, no need for outrageous shopping right?
Hungry may well be a problem. But so is mental state. Elecmon seems a bit more empathic at first than Themis on this count. "Wait, so you don't have any food at your home? Themis, I'm coming up!" Without waiting for a response, Elecmon darts back to the obligingly paused Amaurotine and squirrels her way shoulder and nest-ward. Soon she reappears (and descends) with pack buckled into place on her back.
"Okay! I've got a lunch I have seen other Tamers also eating so it's probably okay for your Tamer!"Elecmon logic. Also food makes everything better and more worthwhile!
More mysteries are presented. A 'Tailmon looking human'? And what might this Tamer be wondering when he asks if it's 'worthwhile'. Themis's first thought isn't on ennui or apathy; it's simply not a default assumption, if he was the type to even assume much at all.
"I would be glad to see if he's willing to talk to me about his concerns. I hope I can offer him some perspective he's familiar with." And thus the group continues on their way.
