I've been thinkin'.

[ Oh! It's not just a rare video feed from Courier Six, but he's out and about on his mail route. He's passing between some homes right now, the view quite nice, as he talks, looking relaxed and toasty in all the gifts he's gotten. His voice is calm and measured, a smile on his dragon mouth, calm as he delivers mostly food between houses. ] Now, I know th'joke about it bein' a bad thing to be thinking.

But some of us have been here for a while. And it's got me wonderin'. What sort of new behaviours have you gotten from the creatures you are? I've seen some of 'em first-hand, but it might be good to chat about 'em. Includin' th'ones we try and ignore. Like th'fucking torpor. Uh-- the fact that lizards try and sleep a lot in the cold. Not every bit of these bodies are fun.

I know there's some of you guys who also try and fight past some of 'em. That hard?

Chat among yourselves if you want, I'm on this route for a while - the daily grind doesn't end. That was a fun debate we had from Akechi, wasn't it? Nature and nurture and what we are, nowadays.

Cold is a big problem for me, though. But... you know, before coming here, I'd never even seen snow. How about you - did you see it before, Guilmon?

[guilmon]

One time, we had to fight IceDevimon...

[That's... not quite the same, though.]

But that's it. It wasn't snowy in Shinjuku when Guilmon was there.

[shotinhead]

That's a place in Japan, right? Japan probably had more snow then where I came from.

Honestly, I was considerin' goin' on a trip up to Alaska. Or, you know, just the north of America. [ so fun fact: canada was annexed in the fallout universe. ] Snow's one of those things... you gotta see someday, right?

[guilmon]

Mm! Guilmon lived in Japan.

[But there's a lot more out there he's never seen. So many mysteries...]

Guilmon's heard of America, but I don't know much about it. Or other places. I did go to the Digital World, but that's different.

[shotinhead]

Actually, y'know. [ Oh! He's talking about himself for once! ] I was in a digital world for a bit. Didn't have any of you guys, though.

Maybe America just struggled with havin' safe things.

[guilmon]

Mmmm... I don't know if I'd call Digimon safe, though. Some of them are nice, but lots of them like fighting.

[shotinhead]

Who doesn't like a bit of fightin'? This place has it, I've had to defend myself a lot back home... seems that's the one common thread between places.

I could take any of you guys, I'd think, if I was back home.

Really? But some Digimon are huge and can break buildings and crush cars! And Ultimate levels are the strongest out there... Even Adult and Perfect Level Digimon have a hard time with them.
