The conversation's nice to have while their walk is paced by the strides and interest of the digimon partners.
Erichthonios's suggestion about the presence of ones who may create and tend this world is met with a nod. It really is the more sensible observation. Is Themis a little disappointed to be reminded of that? Well, yes but only because the possibilities of this new world are so fascinating.
"If Alias is as dire as suggested, then it would be reasonable to speculate the caretakers of this star are resolving a problem connected to it. Or are otherwise able to communicate, much less intervene," he answers. Certainly with the issue somehow touching whole other worlds despite whatever distance may exist (or not?) between them leaves a great deal of room for possibilities on just how bad the situation is. Alias itself may be the smallest pebble on a mountain.
But there's still much to learn before Themis can truly think to offer something with surety.
Further thought is taken on the matter of planned design over random happenstance. Between the two of them, Erichthonios is certainly, if not a master of it, possessed with more on-hand experience in observing the results of concept design.
"You bring a fair point. And I would be hard pressed myself to argue that bonding outside of one's species with this regularity was anything other than by specific design."
The Amaurotine's gaze follows Guilmon and Elecmon's antics; the latter seems to have developed the useful ability to let a large part of what Themis talks about- particularly with Ericthonios- flow around her. Probably a very handy thing, given it means a lot terms that might offend a thinking, feeling person are not taken to heart.
Well she could also be biased to Themis's well-meaning nature. While she doesn't give chase to the leaf, the gleam in her eyes suggests she might have found some harmless mischief to subject Guilmon to later that may or may not be 'leaf on a string' shaped.
"I know that one," Elecmon interjects helpfully. "It's what they call the people from their world that aren't as tall as them."
...She's not... completely wrong.
Themis holds back a laugh (barely) and gently offers some... we'll call it elaboration.
"While it's possible some of the Tamers here are familiars created by our people, size isn't what determines whether they are one." Focusing on Guilmon, the white-robed youth continues readily. "A familiar refers to personal concepts we bring to life with with our creation magicks. Generally for a specific function or purpose to aid us with our work versus a concept designed to be released upon our star."
