The story which has begun to revolve at full speed
Dyes the earth red
The globe is an empty paradise
Let's save it with our hands...


A new day dawns in the Digital World. Technically, it's been a scant few since Tamers first appeared in the Digital World, but today... today is especially momentous. The reason for that is that today is the day that Tamer Union's mission fully begins in earnest. However, the path ahead will not be easy, and will be fraught with danger for human and Digimon alike.

But maybe, just maybe, these disparate people can work together to save their worlds.

Mission Start

The message is sent through on Tamers' digivices early in the morning. It comes from the leaders of Tamer Union, Sunflowmon and Nanomon, who give the directions to gather in the main assembly area of the HQ. When Tamers arrive, they'll find a group of allied Digimon there; essentially, TU's support staff, as well as Panjyamon, Mummymon, and Bitmon. The reason they give... is that it's time for Tamer Union's mission to begin in earnest.

Once everyone is assembled, it's Sunflowmon who speaks first. "Thank you for gathering here today, everyone," she said. "I apologize for the fact that it's taken this long to bring you all together, but we're ready to discuss Tamer Union's mission. Nanomon?"

Nanomon nods, and walks out in front of her. "Hello," he began. "You are all here because you chose to answer our call. All of your worlds are being plagued by some sort of phenomena, and we know that something in this world is the cause of it. We'd like to talk to you about what where we'd like to start focusing our attention."

He took a deep breath, and began explaining the matter of the strange phenomenon known as "Alias". A horrifying, frightful condition that drives Digimon to savagery, where they loose all sense of themselves and become ravenous monsters. He explains that the phenomenon first appeared on the mainland, and that Sunflowmon's master, Rosemon, sent her to restore Tamer Union in an attempt to solve what was truly behind Alias's sudden appearance.

Once Nanomon was finished, Sunflowmon stepped forward, and began to speak solemnly.

"Unfortunately, by the time we managed to bring you all here, Access Island lost contact with the mainland," she explained. "So our ability to pursue this mission is at present quite limited. What we can do right now is do our best to try and make sure that Alias doesn't spread and take over this island... which is why we need you Tamers to be vigilant and patrol the areas of the island that are open to us to determine if Alias has reached Access Island yet or not."

She frowned, and continued. "Furthermore... Tamers are not yet allowed into all areas of the island. The Digimon of each region aren't all sure they can trust you yet. For that reason, you may only be able to use the Trailmon to visit Panorama Plains, Material Jungle, and Pixel Coast.

"I'm sorry. I know after all this, you must all want to get down to business as quickly as we can. But right now, informing you and asking you to stay vigilant is all we can do. I would advise you all to also try and see what you can do to be helpful in the city... and if you want to try building a life here, you'll have our full support."

There looked to be so much more Sunflowmon wished to say. Unfortunately, she had run out of words, so she simply concluded with: "That's all we have for you. If you have any other questions, I'll do my best to answer them."

With that, the meeting was over. That left Tamers with a couple options: one, to approach Sunflowmon, or discuss the matter among themselves.

A Wonderful Day In Our Neighborhood

The inaugural meeting may have been somber, but the Tamers would find Access City bustling and ready to welcome them when they ventured out into the city proper. It turned out that there was something of an event going on, which seemed to be perfect for those still trying to acclimate themselves to their new surroundings: A massive sale in the business district.

All the shops were coordinating with one another. Stores had their wares at reduced prices, which would be a good way for one to spend the stipend they received from Tamer Union. Everything from food to furniture to entertainment was available, and best of all affordable. Others had free samples ready to give out, which were thankfully more palatable than the food served by Ebidramon at the welcome party.

That wasn't all. For those not concerned with buying up anything, there were shows being put on out in the streets by street performers: "human" pyramids, musicians, magicians, jugglers, just about anything you could imagine. And the Digimon putting it on? They would be quick to drag any observers into their performances, whether they technically agreed to it or not.

Even if the rest of the island wasn't ready to trust offworlders yet, it seemed Access City was more than willing to.

Rail Riders

Some time after the big meeting, Tamers would get yet another message on their Digivices, this time from Panjyamon:

Have you all taken a ride on the Trailmon yet? It's an ice way to get around!

Puns aside, he was right. The Trailmon of Console Station were more than willing to carry passengers to any of the available locations. Perhaps you want to get started on patrolling the island for signs of ALIAS. Or maybe you want to get the lay of the land. Or maybe you just want to go to the beach. In any case, your tickets are free, and the Digivice's version of the Handbook has more than enough information for you to read up on the areas before you go.

That being said, there's some goings on that might catch one's eye. A bunch of shifty looking Digimon are riding the Trailmon more than usual. Not only do they make a ruckus on the train, they're going in and out of cargo cars both prior to and upon exiting the train. Do they have permission to do that? And why are they off in such a hurry, and in such large groups?

In any case, this looks like an ample time to find out.


This prompt can be used one of two ways: players visiting the various areas to search for signs of Alias or just because they fancy doing so, or to pursue the Goblimon mystery. If you'd like to pursue the former, you can either NPC them yourself (the Goblimon would turn out to just be everyday troublemakers), or you can request an NPC below and possibly get involved with larger matters!

mission start

"Oh no, that's pretty scary. What are we gonna do, Seto-kun?"

The words are spoken by a vaguely dragon-shaped blob, currently bundled in the arms of a tall, stick-shaped older teen. He tightens his grip onn her and sighs.

"Here's the plan. We train, gather resources, and then purge this infection. It'll take time, but we're going to do it."

"You promise?" Petitmon begs, looking up at her partner with her big eyes.

"Mm. You're going to be the strongest dragon in town." Kaiba's absolutely certain of it.

"Yay!" Satisfied, Petitmon nuzzles her partner's cheek. He pats her head patiently, then looks around at the other gathered pairs. He tries to gauge how they feel about this...they're preparing, right? Making plans? They'd better be.

Petitmon helpfully pipes up to anyone listening: "You heard, right? We're gonna be okay!"

day of shoppping

"Seto-kun, we need to buy this!"

There's Petitmon again, fluttering happily in front of a sun hat. He has a few changes of clothes, some food supplies, and first aid type items in his basket. Practical items for a practical mission. But she looks so longingly at the hat that he sighs and puts it in the basket.

"You know we'll have to work for the money for this, right?"

"I'll work hard and get rich! Just like you said!"

So she does listen sometimes. Seto reaches for the hat and plops it on her head....it somehow balances between her horns, and she giggles. Cute. But they have work to do ultimately...so now that she's satisfied he starts browsing again.

Maybe he should ask another Tamer for assistance here. "Have you found any good deals?"

rail riders

As they board, Kaiba is planning to take Petitmon to the RGB Ridge. She has quite the apptetite for a small Digimon, and they need to gather gemstones for snacks: her favorite. But he notices the strange characters (it's almost impossible not to) and tucks Petitmon safely inside his coat. She peeks out.

"Huh? What..."

"I don't like this," Kaiba grumbles. There are too many goblins, and he doesn't like the way he's seen them treat others. At a bit of a loss, he shifts to the nearest Tamer to ask:

"Do you think they'll stop the train?"

The man nearby - and his partner hopping along on the ground - looks Seto up and down. His coat looks almost like... no, it's not similar. His hand grips his lighter in his pocket for a moment before he relaxes a fraction and finally answers.

"... I haven't done much shopping." His voice is monotone, no emotion whatsoever as he speaks.

Dodomon bounces up and down. "He said his butler usually does the shopping! Or -"

He turns to look at the Digimon with a severe stare, and he shuts up and stops bouncing, looking down.

"... Like he said. I'm not used to shopping."

"You too, huh?" Seto stares too. It's...it's almost like looking in a mirror. How odd. But he shakes it off, and Petitmon flutters her wings as she rises up to greet them.

"That's okay! We'll all figure it out together! I heard there's a place called a lagoon where people swim, do you wanna go there?"

She's looking at swimming equipment. Huh.

"Is that really a practical thing to buy?"

"If you want it, do it!" Petitmon says like this is the most obvious thing in the world.

"...while yes it would work that way normally, I don't have unlimited money anymore." Clearly this is the Greatest Problem Ever.

"... You too." Strange. It's almost like a distorted version of himself - a bit more angular, a hair taller.

Dodomon looks up at Petitmon, trying to bounce up to her height. He's... not very successful. "Swimming sounds fun! Can you swim, Kouga?"

'Kouga' sighs and closes his eyes for a brief moment. "Yes, I can swim. Are you going to keep asking questions?"

"... Yes?"

Another sigh.

Petitmon flutters down to the ground so she can talk to Dodomon more easily. "Yeah! Let's go swimming, Seto-kun!"

And because 'Seto-kun' struggles to say no to her, he dutifully places a baby Digimon-sized inflatable tube and a pair of swim trunks in his basket. They're really going to have to work for some money after this.

"There are ways to earn money around town. I'm going to take her with me, so she can learn about value. I think we might try one of the sports tournaments?"

Date: 2022-04-02 03:19 am (UTC)
steelfanged: (let's go)
From: [personal profile] steelfanged
"Sports tournaments?" He's... heard of such things, vaguely - mostly from Gonza reading the newspaper and cheerfully informing him about them to fill the empty silence that usually permeates the manor. "I don't really play sports."

He shifts his coat slightly, and the hint of a sword hilt can be seen for a brief moment. "But contests of strength and skill aren't totally unfamiliar to me."

Dodomon immediately goes to nuzzle into Petitmon, happy to have a friend around. Because Petitmon absolutely qualifies as a friend!

"Mm. My usual game is a little different too. But I need to expand my horizons to thrive, apparently."

Petitmon isn't having an issue expanding her horizons. She giggles and flutters her wings in a playful tickle. "I'm Petitmon, it's nice to meet you! And Mr. Grumpy is Seto-kun."

"Seto Kaiba," Kaiba cuts in with a sharp nod. "An ally in...stopping the Alias, apparently."

"Apparently. I've engaged in training exercises that some might call 'sport', but the game I play the most is... probably not something I'm going to find here." Barchess is an exclusively Makai passtime, after all.

"I'm Dodomon! And this is Kouga."

"Kouga... Saejima." He's usually hesitant about giving out his family name given the weight it has, but as far as he can tell - and as far as Zaruba can tell, too - there's no other Knights or Priests about.

The guy with the Cutemon is staring intently at the Goblimon. "I don't think there's any need for them to stop the train."

Cutemon's looking back and forth between his Tamer and the Goblimon. "Why?"

"I can take them." He is absolutely sizing the Goblimon up. It's only a matter of time before he does something possibly ill-advised. He doesn't look like he'd be able to do much, at any rate.

Kaiba is relieved. He thinks Petitmon might cry if they don't get her gems to eat today. He secures her in his lap once more, watching the proceedings with a raised eyebrow.

"That many?" He honestly wants to run away with Petitmon, but he shouldn't just leave this man to it.

"I've dealt with worse." He's still mentally calculating his plan of attack; with the element of surprise, he's pretty sure he'll be able to handle this without too much fuss. So what if he's still dealing with the way this world's kind of messed with his powers.

"Hajime," Cutemon says, "they can shoot fireballs."

"It wouldn't be the first time someone's shot a fireball at me." But he's reaching into a coat pocket for something now. It's small. About the size of a deck of cards. "I'll be fast." The item he has removed from his pocket is actually a single card. "I'll disarm them first."

"They don't need the clubs to shoot the fireballs!"

"I'll keep that in mind."

blue_ice: (summoning)
From: [personal profile] blue_ice
Kaiba understands the concept of a thrown card as a weapon, but would a single one be able to dispose of the clubs? Or immobilize them? Even he couldn't do that.

"...Can one card really disarm them?"

He's backing away, still holding Petitmon close. As much as he believes in his abilities, he's not about to risk her so early.

"This one can!" Cutemon's bouncing up and down in his seat now.

A belt appears around Hajime's waist as he walks towards the Goblimon. "Henshin." He flicks the card down the center of the belt. The belt itself speaks, briefly--"CHANGE"--and Hajime's form ripples, changes into something insectlike and armored. He charges at the Goblimon, who were absolutely not expecting something like this to happen. The element of surprise lets him grab a club from one of them before the others can properly react.

"Watch for fireballs!" Cutemon yells. He doesn't sound too concerned, mostly because he is very proud of how capable his Tamer has been so far.

Did he just pull a superhero form out of that card?

This is the stuff of superhero shows, the kind Mokuba doesn't like to admit he watches. While Seto's idly considered the possibility of inventing such a device, to see it work is...stunning to say the least.

He focuses on herding other civilians and small Digimon out of the way, clearing room for the hero to attack.

"I don't know---but it's best to stay out of the way."

"Wow, a super-cool hero! Go get 'em!" Petitmon cheers, squirming inside Seto's jacket to get a better look.

“Right now, I could see that they are having a sale on canned fish and bread at the moment,” a young lady informs him as she is looking at an ad for grocery sales and holding onto a small shopping cart by the long bar.

A small pink and lavender rabbit like Digimon with a ribbon and a moon medallion across her chest is carrying a shopping list while looking for more important supplies to get, her ears on high alert on for any good deals that the two of them could get at this time.

I’m also getting from my hearing that there is a sale on toiletry sets as well, hopefully it does come in handy even in small bottles,” the rabbit Digimon reports in.

"Hm. Bread and fish. Will you eat that?"

Petitmon answers with a happy little chirp. "Is it crunchy?"

Kaiba has to think a moment. He adjusts Petitmon in his arms, making sure she's secure. The little dragon flaps her wings happily. "I can make it crunchy. And we'll have to grab those supplies, thanks."

He looks at the other two more closely. "Ready for...whatever this is?"

Lena could hope for the best as she picks up the bread and canned fish and puts them into the shopping cart.

“Um, I think so,” she tries to answer the man’s question about if she is also ready to face Alias too, even though he didn’t mention it by name directly and she is deep down more nervous than anything else at this time.

Lunamon then gets some fruits (hopefully safe for human and Digimon consumption) and carefully brings them to the cart while she turns her attention to Petitmon, “I see that you have a liking for anything with a lot of crunch. Do you have a favorite crunchy snack in mind?

"We're not ready to fight yet, but I don't know how much time we'll have to prepare. I can't be caught off guard."

Petitmon can sense that Seto is worried, and she nuzzles him once more, but....ooh, fun question! She's easily distracted.

"Gems! I really want to eat gems. Seto-kun says we have to go to the ridge to dig for them. That's so far...but they're so good...maybe I should just eat the fish."

"I'll make the fish crunchy for you," Kaiba promises. "Toast the bread and crumble it, use it as a coating. You'll like it."

"Are we gonna make it right now?"

"So impatient," he laughs. "Soon. We have to finish shopping. And then we'll have to start training. Right?"

He looks at the other two. He'd' appreciate the input of some good role models right now.

Well, that is one very energetic Digimon. Petitmon is starting to remind her a lot like Bridget: hyper, can’t sit down for at least one second, and has a strong attachment to something (soccer and Eric for Bee, gems for Petitmon). The way she gets talk about gems as a snack earns quite the chuckle from Lena.

“You must very be keen on gems, aren’t you?” she talks to Petitmon while somehow forgetting about the uncertainty of facing Alias for a moment.

I’m pretty certain that your partner will train you well so you can be able to face imminent dangers ahead,” Lunamon speaks to the little dragon, “Me and Lena-san are hoping to find a way to get started on training real soon right after we finish shopping for supplies and finding a place to train at.

"Yeah! They crunch the best!" And that is how Petitmon interacts with the world, apparently.

As for Kaiba, he's interested in finding a training spot too. "There's a trainer Digimon in charge, right? He'll likely direct us or start classes, but he'd be the one to ask."

Tohru had been rather focused on something in front of her. Mokumon herself was next to the other, seemingly staying extremely close to Tohru.

When she realised she was being spoken to she turned her head.

"Oh, I have seen a few good deals that help you save if that is what you mean?" She replied as Mokumon the cloud of smoke itself just soon goes over.

"Do you need something specific?" she asked as Tohru seemed to smile. You go Mokumon, she is rooting for you.

Kaiba appreciates the offer. It's been a long time since he's had to shop for himself in a public space like this, and he's rebuilding a life from scratch. And there's his small partner to consider.

"Mm. I don't know how quickly I'll be able to earn money, so making our initial supplies stretch is critical. We'll need food, first aid supplies, furnishings..."

"What's that?" Petitmon chirps at the unfamiliar word.

"Places to sit or sleep."

"Don't worry! We'll be fine," Petitmon insists, nuzzling against her partner.

He sighs down at her fondly. Of course she's like this. Back to the question...

"Maybe a lamp, or extra blankets. I need to keep her warm."

If there was something Tohru was good at it was knowing how to stretch supplies. She lived in a tent for a week, what do you expect?

She soon turned around before pointing toward a direction "For blankets, I believe there is something that way. I haven't checked prices though, but I am sure they have various options." Mokumon nodded slightly agreeing with what she was saying.

"For food, there is a really nice place a little bit further. I would suggest if you want food to keep for long periods something like rice if it's there is a good option for one."

"Thanks," Kaiba nods. Petitmon flutters off on her unsteady wings to investigate the blankets, coming back with one clutched between her teeth. The human sighs.

"I think 'you chewed it, you bought it' is in effect here," he grumbles. "So I'll be buying this. And rice sounds like a filling meal right now."

Petitmon drops the blanket over her human's arms and plops onto it, all smiles. "Ooh, do you know how to cook? I don't think Seto-kun does."

The scowl on his face is an answer in itself.

Tohru couldn't help but give a small chuckle. She didn't mean for it, but oh god it was adorable she couldn't help it, okay.

"I think that would apply if there is damage, if not then not necessarily I think, but we are in a world I know nothing about so who knows."

At being asked about cooking Tohru's smile got wider while her Digimon pal nodded and answered before Tohru could.

"She told me she can. Said we should be okay in that area."

Tohru held her friend close. "That's right and I'll offer to help anyone cook if they are unable to be it teaching or simply doing it Same goes for cleaning." She was pretty sure that was something people might want.
