"Good day, Sunflowmon. I was hoping I could have a few minutes to speak with you?" Themis approaches when there's a moment to do so and Sunflowmon doesn't seem busy. Elecmon is seen clinging to his shoulder with her fore..legs? Arms? Well anyway most of her is tucked into the comfortable folds of his cowl. It's been a wonderful nest she's claimed. In any case, she waves in a cheerful way at the digimon Themis addresses.
If Sunflowmon turns out to be free enough to talk, Themis will speak to her. He is a little over twice her height, but at least the scale makes it easy to chat with her. He's had to do a lot of kneeling and sitting for conversation since his arrival. Not that it hasn't been interesting.
"Do you know anything more than what's been written in the handbook about 'Alias'? Should we move under the assumption that even our partners can be affected?"
Elecmon glances at Themis and seems to sober. Ah, this is going to be a serious talk.
--shopping on a wonderful day--
The stipend is welcome. Themis has carefully read the digital handbook, has familiarized himself with the local currency and some of the customs long before he received it. Elecmon has been helpful too, though often she would add assurances that he wasn't going to have much problem making money, because of his height. And his height. And really what about his height?
He finds his new partner very charming and indulges her whims to a certain extent. So far Elecmon hasn't crossed a line.
Not long after his arrival, he'd set aside the social norms of his people to keep mask and cowl up in public except in certain places. The mask rests hanging against his chest and the cowl is down, leaving a silver-haired young man with lightly glowing blue eyes dressed in white robes.
But shopping! A humbling necessity in this digital world but even if it wasn't, Themis would be looking to take part in the experience. It's busy in the square with so many sales and often the giant can by spotted hanging back and simply watching the crowd; whether standing or resting on a bench that's made for his size. The rush to find what merchant has a good deal, merchants calling out to passersby and the sheer crowds of digimon.
There's also the matter of moving safely through people rushing around in packs to get to the next deal. But that's where the ever helpful Elecmon comes in.
"Leave it to me, Themis! I'll get everything on your list and..." She trails off, glancing in a telling way to some food stalls. Sure there's free samples but the lure of grilling meat that isn't bite size and a cool beverage is where it's at! "Do you think we'll have enough left for lunch? I'm awfully hungry! You've got to be as well, right?" Clearly it's meant to be a sly temptation.
Themis chuckles against a raised hand and shakes his head. "I'm not hungry. But," he closes his eyes briefly to think, "you can spend a little bit to get lunch, as long as it remains in our budget." He names a number that'll be more than enough to get a meal for Elecmon who nods enthusiastically. ...And also plots to bring back a little something for her giant partner. The man just does not eat enough!
Will you spy Themis and stroll up for a chat? Or do you encounter Elecmon, zipping hither and yon through the crowd far more nimbly than the Tamer could, carefully referencing a list in hand?
--investigating movements-- [wanna pair up for an investigation? first come first served! also asking for NPC Goblimons]
Obviously Themis is going to ride the train when there's an offer to experience it. At this point the Goblimon haven't been harassing anyone (at least not in his particular coach) and maybe that's because of his size and Elecmon's occasional warning wherein she points at her eyes, then at the Goblimon that glance in their direction.
She's watching you Goblimon. Don't make her sic her Tamer partner on you.
Right now it's only two and it doesn't seem worth the trouble for them. What does interest Themis is that, because of his proximity to the cargo cars, he's seeing how the groups are moving into and out of them for at least two stops. It's... curious. And given their behavior and that usually such places should be off limits to passengers, Themis begins to gauge what would be better. Checking out the cargo area or following a group and seeing where they go when they leave the train.
It's after the two move on (maybe to meet up with some of their fellows and double back or going to harass other passengers on the train) that Themis gets up.
"Shall we see what's so interesting about the cargo, Elecmon?"
"Oh! We gonna do something, Themis? I know a few tricks that might stir them up. Next group that tries to go in or out..." Elecmon gets a wide, very mischievous grin thinking about her 'plan'.
"First, let's find out what's so interesting. You can tell me about your plan on the way, so I know what resources we have."
This isn't a total 'no' and Elecmon perks up while grinning wider. She knows full well by now that if Themis thinks it's the best possible course of action, he absolutely won't stop her. So eagerly she clambers further on his shoulder and begins quietly speaking in his ear while he walks back toward the cargo cars.
"Okay so what I had in mind..."
