Sangomon and Glitchmon get ambushed by several members of the Zodiac 13 and are forced to make an impossible choice without their digi-destined around.

Back in the human world, Shelbie, Voxmon, and Black Gemmon X prepare for their day but encounter more obstacles than they expected.

Featured character: Black Gemmon X

The Digimon system we're using is being homebrewed by Lio as we play test it. Our theme song and graphics were made using AI, and the background music in most episodes comes from M4S on Spotify.

SPEAKER_05

Hi, it's Little Chomp, and welcome back to the Chaos Crew 2. Last time the fight in Sleeker's office kicked off, and Atanda Lolo and Falcomon showed what they were capable of. Shelby and Voxbawn tried to team up with Kokeshimon, Laureus Digimon, but all they could do was watch her be deleted. Atanda gave Shelby a second chance to run, and so she did, knowing that Tojiro was in the basement and Kyo was probably there.

SPEAKER_16

When they got downstairs, there were 15, 20 people passed out on the floor. Togiro on his hands and knees struggling to stand and being unable to, and Julian, the creep who hit on her last week, pleading for his Digimon's life. Keyo killed that one too, and then drugged Julia and Loria up the stairs to take them into custody. Sleeker was fighting a toy Graymon, and there was no sign of him after all of this. So as far as we know, Tactics Team 9 got all three criminals.

SPEAKER_05

Shelby investigated the office a little bit and saw links to Tagia Kane, one of the five stars on the computer. And she and Tojiro went back to the base.

SPEAKER_16

Lena checked on them and told everyone that we're starting training now because we're never losing to Keyo again. Shelby and Tojiro sat down at the bar to talk. And with the misunderstanding, Shelby ended up saying that she wanted to go on a date with Tojiro, so he asked her out the next day. Um that's fine. That's fine, it's great. It's it's it's gonna be good. Um, and then Shelby took Foxmon and Black Tokemon X home, since now Black Tokemon X was not gonna be linked to anybody's Tapatama anymore, because sleekers have been turned in, and they bonded, and it dig evolved into Black Gemmon X, and they had a group hunk and went to sleep. Sangomon has just finished two rounds of uh a lovely riddle game with her new friend Cherry Mon. And they were having a nice talk, and I don't remember about what, because it's been like three or four weeks since I I played her, but he gets slammed in the back of the head with a black beer, and then regular Leomon, not black Leomon, regular Leomon, comes running in and says we need to talk.

SPEAKER_25

So uh as standing before you you see uh a fairly tall Digimon. Uh he seems pretty as he steps forth. Uh cape blowing in the wind. As Glitchmon oh it's Leomon! It's just like different. It's a good Leomon, I'm sure. It's a great Leomon, it's always Leomon.

SPEAKER_18

Oh just attacked my friends.

SPEAKER_25

Well, as he sits there as he, mmm. That's less good for Leomon. As Leomon stands there as he You two are children. Small children playing at an adult game.

SPEAKER_18

Were those a game for grown-ups?

SPEAKER_25

It is a game for grum-ups.

SPEAKER_18

Is tag a game for grown-ups?

SPEAKER_12

What tag!

SPEAKER_18

That was what we were playing before. I think he wants to play tag, Lutchman! What's my favorite?

SPEAKER_25

As this one, I don't think he wants to play. As he I'm beginning to think that I might just have to kill you.

SPEAKER_21

And deal with the consequences as it comes.

SPEAKER_18

Out here.

SPEAKER_21

We have nothing but fighting. Constant fighting. And it makes the strong strong and shows that the weak are weak. You two are weak. You require digestined to do your bidding. So I'm going to make this quick.

SPEAKER_25

Give me their digivices, and maybe I let you walk, free.

SPEAKER_18

Do you want us to leave? Go get them, come back to you, and then see if you let us walk away. Come back.

SPEAKER_21

You have a smart mouth. That's not going to do you very good.

SPEAKER_18

I don't think I have whatever it is you want.

SPEAKER_25

I'm sure that you do. As he pulls out a digivice, and as it lights up, uh, there is a dot standing right before him.

SPEAKER_09

There is a dot standing right before him.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah. You can see it's a map, and it seems like he's it pretty much shows you are here as an ex. And just in front of him, very close, there is a blipping red light. There are uh three other red lights further back this way. But yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Are you making motions somewhere? I'm zoomed in on us.

SPEAKER_25

So blipping red light this way.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Three bripping red lights, uh, red lights the other way.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

So it's probably my egg.

SPEAKER_20

Which doesn't work.

SPEAKER_21

For you.

SPEAKER_15

Well, yeah. Obviously, I'm the aluminous tribe. So I said it's pooking.

SPEAKER_21

Sure. For you.

SPEAKER_18

Why would you do it from if you have them?

SPEAKER_21

Use them. That's not your concern.

SPEAKER_16

I think does he show her the map?

SPEAKER_25

It's yeah, it's uh sort of holographic projection from the digives.

SPEAKER_18

If there's only one dot over here, then one of us should get to go back.

SPEAKER_21

I'll tell you what.

SPEAKER_18

What?

SPEAKER_25

If you give me your give me the digives, I'll let you both leave this glade. I'll even retract the dark gear.

SPEAKER_18

But Cherymon feel better.

SPEAKER_21

That's right.

SPEAKER_25

But if you don't give me it, Cherimon will attack you.

SPEAKER_18

What?

SPEAKER_25

I will assist Cherimon.

SPEAKER_18

We're friends.

SPEAKER_25

Right now, no one is Cherymon's friend.

SPEAKER_16

She's thinking. This is a big big decision for a very little oral. Also, I'm writing notes.

SPEAKER_05

Okay, um.

SPEAKER_16

But I gotta determine what question I'm trying to answer before I do it. I guess. I care about glitch mon. I rolled an eight on a d20.

SPEAKER_14

We'll do the dice curse. Do I take a token for that?

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, take a token. Uh seems like that's the smartest way to avoid war.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Then I believe I had her like re-eat the egg after seeing that it wasn't charged. So she's just gonna kind of really slowly shuffle up next to Glitchmon.

SPEAKER_00

We can take him, Sang. We can take him. Let's just get him. We can get him, we can do it, we can take him.

SPEAKER_18

What if he hurts us so too, Mountain? And you are stuff.

SPEAKER_22

Bit of a head down moment.

SPEAKER_12

Not sure. Let's see. Yeah, I guess.

SPEAKER_18

I don't.

SPEAKER_12

I didn't even think about that. I guess.

SPEAKER_18

I don't think.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna lean in close so he just sees like the two kids like huddled to whisper.

SPEAKER_14

Which I'm sure he's very impressed by. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_18

If you run really fast or disappear anything.

SPEAKER_12

Hmm?

SPEAKER_18

Gotta whisper. You gotta whisper.

SPEAKER_12

I don't know what should what you said.

unknown

Can you?

SPEAKER_12

You whispered too small.

SPEAKER_18

Sorry. Can you um run really fast or or go invisible or anything? Like Rush is distracted with me. Can you run back to the other people? To our people?

SPEAKER_00

I can run. Sure.

SPEAKER_18

Really fast or uh maybe. Okay.

SPEAKER_16

I mean, she doesn't know this is a bad situation. She rolled an eight, she has to do this.

SPEAKER_18

So just start going so he can't see your handle sheets, and then as soon as you hear me go blah, then you run, okay.

SPEAKER_16

Does Leomon look like he's at all?

SPEAKER_25

He's watching.

SPEAKER_16

He's just watching.

SPEAKER_25

His eyes catch Glitchmon doing this.

SPEAKER_16

Well sure.

SPEAKER_25

But he's not moving to stop him.

SPEAKER_16

She's gonna calm to within ten feet and then like cough up her egg, I guess.

SPEAKER_25

So that's he starts running?

SPEAKER_16

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

A flight check.

SPEAKER_16

Oh baby, roll the three.

SPEAKER_21

Oh no.

SPEAKER_16

This is how I get two rookies killed in the same session.

SPEAKER_25

As he starts running, an arrow hits him and knocks him back. As Leomon picks up the Sapatama as you'd hear the sound of something breaking from behind you as walking up, you'd hear Alright! Did you get what you wanted, mate?

SPEAKER_17

Out here in this little jungle of a thing from the little little ass of beer.

SPEAKER_25

Oh. So indeed we did. A different form of it. Uh Sagitermon walks over at this point, standing over Glitchman. You have to think better than that. I uh I'd never let you escape. Honestly. You can't be faster than my arrows. Glitchman.

SPEAKER_24

Uh that hurt. That one hurt a little. Oh no.

SPEAKER_25

Uh that stung.

SPEAKER_18

I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_25

As Leomon said, I said I wouldn't hurt you.

SPEAKER_20

That's not.

SPEAKER_25

I would let you leave. I never said anything about them.

SPEAKER_18

Retract the gear! You said you would retract the gear.

SPEAKER_25

Uh oh. You're right. I'll retract the gear. So he puts his hand up and it starts circular saw through wood. And see, I never said which way I would bring it out.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna come like come up and punch him. I don't expect it to do anything. But I'm gonna do it.

SPEAKER_22

Uh cool. Go for it.

SPEAKER_09

Ten.

SPEAKER_25

Ten.

SPEAKER_17

Take a token.

SPEAKER_25

Ah, one sec, I've got a row.

SPEAKER_17

Sure.

SPEAKER_25

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

What is the name of the cow? It's probably gonna be like Torimon or something.

SPEAKER_21

Taurus Mon.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_21

Okay. Sorry. Oh, sorry, ignore that.

SPEAKER_16

Hey Ares, what are you doing here?

SPEAKER_21

He is doing But he's not in the scene.

SPEAKER_25

Oh, Aresmon has been in the scene as switching places. No Laugh As Leomon stands there as you punch, take a uh take a token.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.

SPEAKER_25

Uh as Leomon uh would actually walk up on here as he it seems you're a bit busy. Perhaps I shouldn't leave you to it. I have other things to do after all. As he holds the subtama in his hand, and as he just like focuses intently, you'd see electricity pulsate through him. As it hits the subatama, it ching turns back on.

SPEAKER_16

Does it affect me at all?

SPEAKER_21

No.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_21

As he uh exactly what I needed.

SPEAKER_25

Take care of them. As he would reef the gear from uh Cherimon. Cherimon is downed. Uh as Leomon starts walking off, I'm gonna get a turn order.

SPEAKER_16

Hooray Twenty nine This is when the twenty comes initiative.

SPEAKER_25

That's the right thing for it.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Uh he's on chorus mon it's hard playing a child.

SPEAKER_06

They don't know any better.

SPEAKER_25

The good news is you're slowly getting through the Zodiac 13. Uh once you kill these three uh goons, you've taken out one, two, three, four, five, six, four, seven of them if we kill kill these guys. It's pretty fucked up.

SPEAKER_16

I mean, I've killed one, we've knocked out four over there, so he's telling Matt I killed one of them.

SPEAKER_17

It's just fixed. I was bigger at the time.

SPEAKER_25

Glitchmon. Alright. Ascending. Uh Sangomon, you are starting us off.

SPEAKER_16

Hmm. Okay. Is Glitchmon pinned to anything, or is he just shot?

SPEAKER_25

He's just shot, he's just taken an arrow.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, by the way. Um Data Water.

SPEAKER_25

Okay. One second.

SPEAKER_11

Just before we start doing anything.

SPEAKER_21

Data water.

SPEAKER_25

Okay. And uh tribute is unknown for uh Glitchmon, which means I have to roll for it. You roll the three, so that is virus.

SPEAKER_16

Does it currently We have virus in the round or for the uh for the whole battle. Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Whole encounter.

SPEAKER_16

Cool, cool, cool, cool.

SPEAKER_25

I have no- There's a later thing he can get that will mean that he chooses which ones he wants, but so vaccine fire for Aresmon. Uh which means you have uh all round advantage. So sorry, I'm just uh Sango Taurus Mon is a vaccine Earth. So in theory you have an advantage and what's the other one? Uh not no interaction, so you have an advantage over. You still have advantage over Taurus?

SPEAKER_10

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Being a data type is being a yeah, data type is really helping you. Uh Sagittamon is Vaccine Wind.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Uh so wind. No interaction. So advantage all round on these Digimon.

SPEAKER_16

So with the vaccine water having advantage, because the vaccine having advantage er vaccine fire, sorry, for both, does it stack in any manner?

SPEAKER_22

No. Okay.

SPEAKER_16

So it's not roll three. Take the top one.

SPEAKER_25

No.

SPEAKER_16

I just have to.

SPEAKER_25

No, it's just in it's just in the matter of if I disadvantage you, I have to disadvantage you twice for Ares.

SPEAKER_06

Got it.

SPEAKER_25

Uh now just quickly, I'm just gonna get uh glitch. Glitchmon, he's a virus. Uh null, so pretty much they all have advantage over him. Unfortunately.

SPEAKER_13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, he kind of got fucked by being a glitch.

SPEAKER_16

Um I mean, I'm sure it's happened before. Life is a glitch, it's gotta be hard.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, the unknown type is uh cruel fucking mistress. Um X is at the bottom. Perfect. There's a certain amount of turns before your tamers will show up.

SPEAKER_07

Sure.

SPEAKER_25

Uh do I have uh Cherimon here? I do, in case there's something for Cherimon.

SPEAKER_21

Um right, you're good. Sangamon, you are up.

SPEAKER_16

I don't know what you're going to say about this. Um, but you said he's just unconscious, right? He's not baby form. I want to use my movement to come over here, and I want to use heal for the first time.

SPEAKER_25

Sure. Yep. Uh so Cherimon gets back up with one uh minor wound at the moment.

SPEAKER_19

Sure.

SPEAKER_25

Oh no, sorry. Yeah. Hey. Okay, that's interesting. Because you have to essentially to kill something, you have to when they heal four major wounds down.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Uh and then you need to deal the extra minor wounds to kill them. So uh, in a sense, what does Cherry One have? Does he have four or three? In a sense, I don't think he would get back up because it doesn't heal the It doesn't heal a full major.

SPEAKER_16

But it it's progress towards it.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, it is progress towards it. He needs one more before the major is gone, essentially.

SPEAKER_16

Also, um, that was her third signature strain, so she is now at one major injury, but that's fine.

SPEAKER_22

Cool.

SPEAKER_16

Um yeah, I think we go with this. That's my turn. So I'm assuming Keel is an action. Yeah, as an action. Oh, doesn't use a signature charge. My bad. I just saw it mentioned there, and so I clicked it because why would it be mentioned if it wasn't relevant? Never mind. Let me just revert that back.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Sagittamon is going to clip the fuck out of uh Glitchmon. I'm gonna take this Digimon out before he becomes a problem. Uh he's going to Zodiac Star shot it. Which can inflict the paralyzed status. Okay, he's gonna do a signature attack versus Glitchmon, who does have unnatural reflexes, so he's gonna try and dodge. Yeah, Glitchmon, quick! Glitchmon! Starts jumping around. Uh the Sagittarium seems annoyed, but he sits there as he he keeps moving. We need to step up our game. Uh alright. He's going to He's going to soul link you.

SPEAKER_05

What is that?

SPEAKER_25

So that whenever you gain or lose token, so does this Digimon.

SPEAKER_13

Oh shame.

SPEAKER_25

Glitchmon! Uh Dunloo isn't happy. Glitchmon's gonna go for an attack. Uh he's gonna actually Glitchmon's gonna run.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

He's gonna try and run again.

SPEAKER_16

Good job. I support this.

SPEAKER_25

You should also do this.

SPEAKER_16

I'm trying to save my friend who's an ultimate Digimon.

SPEAKER_25

It's a bad plan. Uh Ariesmon is gonna rush in and she's gonna ram horn Cherimon.

SPEAKER_17

I see.

SPEAKER_25

Uh yeah, he has four miners, so it's very much uh she's gonna try and kill him.

SPEAKER_15

But I don't understand. If she does, it will in some ways go better for me, because then I can leave.

SPEAKER_12

Fair.

SPEAKER_16

But if you're playing like a really loyal person, it just it's hard. I don't wanna just abandon him. I abandoned polio.

SPEAKER_22

Yep.

SPEAKER_21

Okay. Sherry Mon.

SPEAKER_25

Uh he's an ultimate form Digimon, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Cool.

SPEAKER_25

He can only roll durability right now. He's pretty durable.

SPEAKER_11

Crit! Crit! Crit!

unknown

Crit!

SPEAKER_11

Come on!

SPEAKER_25

No. That is two minor wounds.

SPEAKER_16

And I only healed one. So that's one past his max.

SPEAKER_25

He is one away from death, yeah. Forest mon stands there saying Jesus Christ, Ares! It's not oh, we shouldn't be attacking down Mons.

SPEAKER_26

Just the little fucker here. How ya doing, big fella? You ready to die?

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_25

Well, this is gonna be a sucky time for you then. Don't worry, I'll make it quick. Uh he's going to signature. Earth strike.

SPEAKER_16

Now, because he's attacking me, does he have disadvantage with our relationship?

SPEAKER_01

I believe so.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Signature. Because I know I have advantage on attacks, but I think he also has disadvantage on attacks.

SPEAKER_25

Signature attack. Cool.

SPEAKER_09

Is that actually a 31 with disadvantage?

SPEAKER_25

Yes.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, kid.

SPEAKER_25

Roth a 16 and a 15.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, I see. Those are quite close to one another.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, well.

SPEAKER_25

He also has a plus fourteen.

SPEAKER_16

Ah yeah, he's he yes he does. That's nice. That's real nice. Alright, we're going to. I wanna try to counter it with Braun. Can you describe his attack again?

SPEAKER_25

So Stone would charge, he lowers his plated head and performs a slow but unstoppable charge that ignores most minonary actions, dealing heavy damage and leaving behind cracked difficult terrain where it passes.

SPEAKER_16

I am going to try to like grab one of his horns or his face and shove him in a different direction. Okay? Is this gonna work? Probably not, but we're gonna try.

SPEAKER_25

We'll see.

SPEAKER_16

12.

SPEAKER_24

12. Nice. Uh I have roll it your ability.

SPEAKER_16

I don't have enough that I can get to a 31. That doesn't matter. I have enough that I could make it roll again. If I spend tokens on dice, does the other guy lose them?

SPEAKER_25

Uh yeah. If you use them on your dice, sure.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

We're gonna roll durability, and then I will ask this question of myself again in a few seconds. So I'm gonna take the failure dice for that.

SPEAKER_25

I don't know why it says gains lose why it says lose's tokens. Should just be gains.

SPEAKER_16

No, well it's not right now.

SPEAKER_25

Uh I'm gonna rule that it is, but okay.

SPEAKER_16

Uh come on, let me just spend like no give up. Make him negative 50 tokens this fight. It'll be fun.

SPEAKER_25

You didn't even have tokens. Yes, I do.

SPEAKER_16

I have Keogh's tokens.

SPEAKER_25

He didn't.

SPEAKER_16

Oh. He didn't. Okay. Well, he's gotten one from the failure. Does he get two because Keog has easy going, or does he just get one because it was one failure? He gets two.

SPEAKER_22

He gets two.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Now, we are going to try.

SPEAKER_17

We are going to try laddering this for a bigger number. Is this a bad plan? Probably.

SPEAKER_16

But spending eight sweat. Roll again. 38! I take it!

SPEAKER_25

Nice! You tank it as you hold him back. You don't it's not enough to uh fight him off, but you know.

SPEAKER_16

But it didn't hurt!

SPEAKER_25

That's right. But you know what's there as he stands there, you holding it you look see him look at you and smile. Alright!

SPEAKER_16

Alright! Negative five to this attack and a disadvantage! Woo!

SPEAKER_25

Twenty.

SPEAKER_16

Alright. Gonna roll brawn again!

SPEAKER_20

Nine! Give that guy two tokens, please!

SPEAKER_25

Roll of your ability!

SPEAKER_17

I just think she's like grabbing onto his face, and then he's trying to smash her into stuff, but the coral's just not breaking.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, I'm gonna spend another four just to get it to twenty.

SPEAKER_15

We're not laddering, we're just meeting twenty! So that didn't hurt either.

SPEAKER_25

Nice. Relentless assault does stop as soon as you beat it. As soon as you stop the attack. I'm not just gonna have him king romper.

SPEAKER_20

She is so small.

SPEAKER_25

He's happy. He's like laughing. He's like, ah good!

SPEAKER_26

She's got some she's got some uh guts in her. Up your guts, mate. That's the way.

SPEAKER_20

What does that mean?

SPEAKER_26

It means it's good! Up the guts straight away and straight on.

SPEAKER_18

Do you wanna be friends so we can fight the other people first and then we can fight each other?

SPEAKER_26

Nah, mate, I'm about to kill you. That's what I do.

SPEAKER_11

We can kill the sheep!

SPEAKER_26

No! That would be stupid!

SPEAKER_17

Come on, man, look at this brilliant charm that isn't on a real roll, because it's not on my turn. This is two! Don't you wanna kill the sheep with me? Haven't you always just hated that sheep? No.

SPEAKER_25

Nope. He he doesn't dislike the sheep at all.

SPEAKER_15

Oh man! We could have had so much fun!

SPEAKER_25

As that turn ends.

SPEAKER_16

Hi, Beomond.

SPEAKER_25

I ignore that. That wasn't me doing a thing.

SPEAKER_16

That's fine. I'm sure it's me checking a random sheet doing a thing. It's not like Sora's going to come so that I can meet her.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, you can meet Sora. Uh yeah, Sora's sheet's not even done. Why would I bring Sora into this?

SPEAKER_16

It's okay. I'm sure B O mine is just the random D20 that you're rolling. It's fine.

SPEAKER_25

I was trying to test if a thing worked, but it doesn't.

SPEAKER_20

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

Okay.

SPEAKER_24

You can disbelieve me all you like. Um your tamer's flight check.

SPEAKER_16

I don't disbelieve you. I'm just busy. Whatever you're doing is fine. My tamer is super duper slow. Five. But it was five on a six, which is pretty good. You know what? You know what, Keo, we're gonna ladder your dice. I will give you one of your own tokens, buddy. I got you.

SPEAKER_25

The idea is we're going to. I'm going to essentially add all of the peoples up to see when they arrive.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Should we have to do that? They have to need a certain number before they all get here. D10 flight now. Matt.

SPEAKER_17

And I you rolled a one on your ten cue. I can't I can't help you with that.

SPEAKER_21

Okay, let's see. So up.

SPEAKER_25

Okay, so first off, Kuder took it down by twenty-four. Teo took it down by fifteen. Uh Matt took it down by seven. And then Ty took it down by four because Ty's a slow fuck.

SPEAKER_16

Uh That's fair.

SPEAKER_17

I am glad that we sent the other, like, three of them back because they weren't allowed to go to the woods. That's that's nice. That our tamers potentially already knew about this.

SPEAKER_25

That's totally fair. Alright, second movement, actually. You are up at the top of the round.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, I am up at the top of the round.

SPEAKER_25

By the way, this cliff here? That is a cliff cliff.

SPEAKER_24

That's not.

SPEAKER_16

What cliff where? Sorry, I'm always.

SPEAKER_24

Just around here?

SPEAKER_16

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_25

This drop here?

SPEAKER_16

Probably like That's a death cliff.

SPEAKER_25

150 feet.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, so I'm gonna guess if I wanted to run away, which I'm not saying I did, but this is a level path out. And this is a level path out. Right? Because based on the map, either one of those ledges looks fine. That's up.

SPEAKER_25

Uh pretty much this level path out. That level path out.

SPEAKER_13

And that one.

SPEAKER_25

Maybe you're skirting the edge of a canyon.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Sure. But it's at least not a drop or a wall. It's a risky path. That's fine.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. I'm going to use my. I think I'm going to use my player character abilities. Which means I get to add stuff in combat. But Keo doesn't have the thing that Shelby has to let me buy stuff for cheap. And honestly, I think we're gonna leave it like that for right now because they're fighting. So I think strengths are normally two tokens, but if you're buying them for your Digimon without loyal or whatever, it's doubled. So four.

SPEAKER_23

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, so I'm gonna spend four. And I am going to buy closer. I am going to immediately use that. We're pulling out all the stops and it's gonna hurt ourselves. But we are turning to look at the sheep.

SPEAKER_09

And I am going to water blast the horns off that thing.

SPEAKER_01

You gotta try.

SPEAKER_16

I am. Alright, so we haven't finished setting up jet stream jester since the rework. I'm gonna click. Brawn because I feel like it's normally fire hose. Like just sheer pressure, and that's what you've had me roll for that. Um does every signature need a status?

SPEAKER_25

No, not every signature needs a status. I'm gonna like- When they don't have status, usually I will allow you to sort of make a added effect. I Ares has the reaction one where she can swap with the person getting attacked. Uh Taurus Mon has one that doesn't have a status. Which essentially moves you. It can push you an amount of squares equal to every ten or every five points, I believe it is.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Five, ten, fifteen, twelve, twenty-five.

SPEAKER_16

Um if you have any suggestions, by all means throw them in. But Sangoman is going to raise her little hands, walk forward, put them straight against Aresmon, and just full force, signature attack, blast right into her belly. And it is at Advantage, which I'm gonna click now. She dances all over the place.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

You deal two injuries.

SPEAKER_16

And then I'm gonna blow surge and I'm gonna do it again.

SPEAKER_21

Try to durability 21.

SPEAKER_25

Seventeen. Yeah, that'll do another two.

SPEAKER_04

How's she looking?

SPEAKER_25

Pretty hurt.

SPEAKER_01

Push back a bit.

SPEAKER_16

My friends! I love! If she's pushed back, I'm gonna step forward into that space.

SPEAKER_25

I mean, when I say push back, I mean she's hurt. Okay, I just meant this thing to push, you can push have it push, but yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Or right now, can we just have it knock her back like five feet for dramatic purposes, and I'm gonna step forward. We can think about secondaries later unless you have a good option.

SPEAKER_25

But this is fine.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Alright. Uh, Sagittamon stands there as he. The little one's getting away. I'll go after them. Kill those two. I'll kill that one and hurry up. Uh he's going to run off. Sagitarmon has exited. Ariesmon sits there as she. Oh. Children should know their place. She's going to try and hit you.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. I'm gonna try to grab her hand or her horns or whatever. I'm just gonna brawn everything like Tochio 16! What was she trying to hit me with?

SPEAKER_25

Fraud. Uh yeah, she tries to kick you in the face with her hoof.

SPEAKER_16

I just grab her hoof and I threw it to the sky.

unknown

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

Uh however. She uh. I'm not uh. Taurus Mon. Hurry up, as he Oh, don't worry, love. I've got something special.

SPEAKER_18

Not scrap.

SPEAKER_25

He's gonna attack you.

SPEAKER_16

Oh right. Okay, important question. Sagittarium is the one who linked me, right? Link sold me.

SPEAKER_20

Huh? Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

He's left. Does he still get tokens if I fail?

SPEAKER_12

Yes.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Just wanted to know.

SPEAKER_15

Not saying I'm going to fail, but I might. Okay.

SPEAKER_17

I'm gonna try to grab the stupid guy's head and throw it to the side again. And we're gonna fail again, most likely, because we've never succeeded, but we're gonna keep trying saying I'm on 22.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, I can spend two and make that work! I spent two and make that work.

SPEAKER_17

Cool.

SPEAKER_25

Uh he's gonna follow through.

SPEAKER_17

They're relentlessing again.

SPEAKER_25

Yep.

SPEAKER_17

Oh, I wish the losing tokens thing was still candid because Sagittarium would be out so many right now.

SPEAKER_25

Uh, sorry. You don't have advantage on Oh! You're right! Did we say it's no advantage on uh defense checks? I don't remember the durability.

SPEAKER_16

I don't remember, I just always forget to turn it off.

SPEAKER_25

Just check my thing.

SPEAKER_16

I apologize if it was not on defenses.

SPEAKER_25

I've been doing this wrong.

SPEAKER_16

What?

SPEAKER_25

They don't have disadvantage. It's just advantages.

SPEAKER_13

Oh.

SPEAKER_10

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Doesn't matter. That's why I was wondering why it's so difficult because I'm like, I have to keep track of so many disadvantage advantage bullshit.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, hang on. So I just want to make sure that I'm right since this came up. Because I don't want to have this conversation every week just because I can't remember. Is this the current type interaction chart that we have? Or do we have it on it? It is. Okay.

SPEAKER_25

That is the correct one, which you can see on white and dark. They have the back and forth, meaning they have advantage and disadvantage on each other. No one else has that.

SPEAKER_16

Well, you just said advantage and disadvantage on each other.

SPEAKER_25

Oh sorry, they have advantage on each other.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, so the point of the type interactions is only to grant advantage.

SPEAKER_21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Alright. And it works the same way with the vaccine virus data. It's only to grant advantage. Alright, let me make a note of that. Because I really thought it was a two-way thing, but that actually is like twice as strong if I have an advantage in hitting you have disadvantage on.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

Sorry about that. I will re-roll that Ron if you want me to.

SPEAKER_25

No, no, it's all good. We'll just move on. We'll just go from here as we go.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Yep. So from this point forward, I'm gonna turn disadvantage off. Okay, are we keeping that? You will still have advantage on the initial defense and on your your attacks.

SPEAKER_10

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

And on initial defense, but not on durability checks.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. So that doesn't make sense. For attacks and first defense. Alright. Yeah, I'm happy with that.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_14

So I'll turn it back on so I can know my initial response to this, which is gonna be brilliant, everyone. I have one token left.

SPEAKER_16

Alright. Ron is still better than flight.

SPEAKER_09

It just is.

SPEAKER_01

Damn.

SPEAKER_11

Woo!

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_11

Send the fine.

SPEAKER_25

Alright. Uh give me a check from Flight from Key. A flight check from Keog?

SPEAKER_04

Yep, yep.

SPEAKER_16

Keo gets from Keho. For does that count as a failure or not? Because this is a group check and just adding. Okay.

SPEAKER_25

This is there is no failing this check.

SPEAKER_19

That's what I thought.

SPEAKER_25

Alright. It always just adds to what I have.

unknown

Which.

SPEAKER_25

Uh. They're getting very close. 29. Wait. Mainly because of shooter.

SPEAKER_16

I love shooter.

SPEAKER_25

Minus. Shooters are awesome.

SPEAKER_16

So I have a question.

SPEAKER_25

Next turn they'll definitely be here.

SPEAKER_16

Are they running in from a different direction than Glitchmon left in? Is there any chance for them to run?

SPEAKER_25

No, they're running in from the They're running in from the direction Glitchmon ran came in. Which means that this turn? Uh well what'll happen is yeah, they reach him this turn. Shooter's gonna pair off with Glitchmon. Uh and I would say your choice, Matt or Ty would stay with them as well.

SPEAKER_16

So question, since he has Glitchmon and Black Leomon, he's still keeping one trainer with him, so there's two of them versus that one guy, and then two of them coming here.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

My choice between Matt and Ty. I want Gururumon to come here.

SPEAKER_01

Sure.

SPEAKER_14

You're like, which tamer do you like better? And I'm like, Gabu Bon's my friend!

SPEAKER_25

Alright, so next turn, Matt and Guru Rumon and Keo will uh show up.

SPEAKER_11

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Sangamon.

SPEAKER_16

Woo! Alright, so the focus thingy is flow surge is once a scene. So we're gonna close down that description. Because we can't do that anymore. And we can't use this because it's an upgrade chip, and we haven't been able to put it in any digivice, so we're gonna close that too. Alright. Then we just have one signature attack on the dumb sheep.

SPEAKER_12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Cost. This is what we've committed to.

SPEAKER_15

I'm not even gonna bother walking around to the other side of her or anything.

SPEAKER_17

Twenty-seven. Say come on, I'm so happy you don't have the dice curse. You were such a good baby.

SPEAKER_25

Twenty-three. Still takes damage. She's pretty hurt. I think she goes down.

SPEAKER_20

Never mind.

SPEAKER_16

I turn around and look at Taurus Matt.

SPEAKER_26

Smile on his face as he that's the spirit. Let's get it done. Alright. Oh big big finish, alright.

SPEAKER_16

I like dig my little feet into the ground and brace for And then probably.

SPEAKER_17

He reels back as he's lifted right up. He reels back and what?

SPEAKER_25

Uh he reels back and is going to charge you.

SPEAKER_17

Getting rid of the cra Wait, wait, wait.

SPEAKER_16

Oh no, this is my initial defense. Yes, advantage. Okay. Twenty-five situations.

SPEAKER_25

Push him off. Uh he is going to follow up attack.

SPEAKER_06

I never roll well, Leo. I never roll well.

SPEAKER_25

Shelby! Doing so good!

SPEAKER_14

Shelby is gonna spill drinks on herself and trip on every crack in the sidewalk.

SPEAKER_17

But Sangamon.

SPEAKER_25

Sangamon's the real hero.

SPEAKER_17

You can roll above a 15! Okay, twenty-eight. Oh advantage on the brawn! 13. It had to happen. Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Uh Sagittarius gets tokens.

SPEAKER_16

So go ahead and do that, and then I will do the durability. Not at advantage, so I will toggle those things right now. Oh no, not disadvantage, just normal. Okay, every five that I am under is a minor one.

SPEAKER_25

It's a square you're pushed back.

SPEAKER_16

It's a square that I'm pushed back.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Cool.

SPEAKER_25

Uh, including the first one. So you are always pushed five feet.

SPEAKER_16

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

And then you can be pushed more.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

In a line. Alright.

SPEAKER_16

What am I going against?

SPEAKER_25

So it's durability. No. Durability versus durable. The 28.

SPEAKER_16

The 28. Alright, here we go. Fourteen.

SPEAKER_03

Fourteen.

SPEAKER_24

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

Alright.

SPEAKER_16

So.

SPEAKER_24

SPEAKER_15

Because he got the yeah, he gets the five three.

SPEAKER_25

Three squares.

SPEAKER_15

I just uh get smashed in.

SPEAKER_25

You drag her. He drops. He fully fucking intended to just kill her.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, cool. I've killed two of them.

SPEAKER_25

He's gonna run up and relentless attack again.

SPEAKER_16

Did I take any injuries from that or did he just move me?

SPEAKER_25

Uh you do take two injuries.

SPEAKER_16

Minor?

SPEAKER_25

Two minors.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, I'm a hundred percent gonna claim this is a kill as well. She's dead.

SPEAKER_16

Alright. Brawn two counter. Bump bum twenty-two!

Oh, good good job. Yeah you're special Sangamon. I can tell you you're just like me. You love the battle. You love the thrill.

SPEAKER_24

You j you a bleeding heart after me own. Uh at this point You can't even contradict that.

SPEAKER_17

She is the brawler out of everyone, yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Garbumon and uh our good friend Kyo Kiyo show up. Uh I'm gonna roll them all in.

SPEAKER_16

Alright. If he gets significantly lower than me, like at the bottom yeah, he's at the bottom. I'm not gonna hold my turn for him because by the time it gets to him, it's practically the top of the round.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Although Taurus Mon does go after him, but Oh.

SPEAKER_12

No Taurusmon got failed bad.

SPEAKER_16

We're gonna try to be just super intense. Uh-oh! My turn counter disappear.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_10

Let's put it back in the corner.

SPEAKER_16

Alright. It's my turn. Oh, Gobamon's attributes.

SPEAKER_25

Uh what happened with Gobamon's attributes?

SPEAKER_16

Do you have them written down for the interactions?

SPEAKER_25

Oh yes, yes, yes. Sorry, I've gotta turn off fire and see on disadvantage. Uh Gobamon is vaccine fire.

SPEAKER_04

So no nothing.

SPEAKER_25

Nothing with uh the Tauros toy.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna shoot water from the jets in my feet. Go near past him. And then I'm gonna do that same attack I did on the sheep a bunch. So I'm gonna go ahead and do the signature again!

SPEAKER_17

Take a no I have done more damage to myself than they have done to me. Okay! Time with this boy.

SPEAKER_16

So we s surf over into position and raise the arms. We're gonna do another blast, which probably is not gonna push him off the cliff, but why? Am I on advantage? Uh yes I am. Alright, come on, single one!

SPEAKER_25

47 gonna roll your ability because you beat his strength. Let's see. Yeah. As you hit him, he's hit. Push back five feet as you smash into the guy.

SPEAKER_20

Maybe you wanna fall!

SPEAKER_26

Ah, he's got spirit.

SPEAKER_15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Uh he's going to digivolve him. And so Gabumon!

SPEAKER_26

Digivolve to Gorurumon.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

And then he will uh boost his partner's roles.

SPEAKER_10

By five or six. I would listen.

SPEAKER_16

I don't have an experienced tamer, so it doesn't really matter if I know yet.

SPEAKER_25

It's by six. Nice. I forgot that Matt and Tyre both experienced. Yeah. Uh cool. Garbamon is taking its turn. It's gonna rush in. It can just reach him. Uh as Gurumon sits there as he.

SPEAKER_26

I won't let you hurt Matt on the others. Uh he well says the champion.

SPEAKER_25

Come in. He's going to hold on.

SPEAKER_13

Get him, get him, get him.

SPEAKER_25

Uh he's going to do a uh signature foxfire, uh, which will inflict the burn status.

SPEAKER_21

Twenty-nine versus Taurus Mon.

SPEAKER_18

Oh, I wrote down.

SPEAKER_25

He's gonna try and punch the fire. Uh doesn't succeed. So he's gonna roll durability.

SPEAKER_20

Doesn't succeed.

SPEAKER_25

He does tank it though. As he just washes over the top of him as he come on now, mate. That ain't the way to be. Oh, ain't the way to do it. Uh, what's Keo doing?

SPEAKER_16

Um. Oh, I I play him in combat now, right?

SPEAKER_22

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

How is he feeling? Because we were not on the best of terms when I ran off. But I don't know why.

SPEAKER_25

He's not he doesn't let his emotions like that get in the way of helping.

SPEAKER_16

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Um, but yeah.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna guess he probably is gonna. He's probably gonna digibove. I don't want you. I've been doing great. And my signature at my next level is defensive, not offensive.

SPEAKER_21

Oh no.

SPEAKER_16

I just I I feel like with Matt here, he's probably gonna do it. You know? He doesn't want to be any less than the stupid adults. So the sparkles happen and everything. I need you to make me bigger.

SPEAKER_21

She become Orcamon.

SPEAKER_25

Sangamon, Digivolve to Orchimon. Taurus one stands there as he, oh look at this. Bloody oath, mate. This is some hard yaka. I'm not I'm not in it for this. Fuck me dead, you you fellas around here.

SPEAKER_07

Finish once you've started.

SPEAKER_25

Ha ha ha! You're going off!

SPEAKER_07

Bring it!

SPEAKER_25

But but unfortunately this ain't a piece of piss like they said it was gonna be. And we didn't come here to fuck spiders, so Peace!

SPEAKER_26

He jumps.

SPEAKER_17

Jumps?

SPEAKER_26

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Down.

SPEAKER_24

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Does he get hurt?

SPEAKER_24

Uh you can go over the thing and look. He is exting combat.

SPEAKER_25

He takes uh a full set of major wounds, two major wounds, so four minors. Uh no, it'd be six miners. He takes six miners. However, that puts him still up.

SPEAKER_24

As he looks up at you, salutes, and then starts fucking bolting.

SPEAKER_16

Now I totally understand if you're gonna say something reasonable like you are out of range. But I am going to freeze an icicle and shoot it at him.

SPEAKER_25

120 feet. More more than that.

SPEAKER_09

What matters is that you guys see me trying to attack one more time and him getting away, okay? That's the important thing. For sure.

SPEAKER_16

The ice just shatters. She glares down at him, but then turns, and I'm gonna try to heal him.

SPEAKER_24

He turns, cracks a beer as he likes shows it up tears. He starts pouring it all over himself.

SPEAKER_16

Shake a flipper at him, but I'm gonna turn and I'm just gonna start healing Cherymon.

SPEAKER_25

As you start to heal Cherrymon, Matt runs down and see what is going on here? What happened?

SPEAKER_16

I was doing a riddle puzzle with Cherymon, and we became friends, and it was good.

SPEAKER_07

And then Leomon came up and said that he wanted everybody's digives, and I thought if I gave him my egg, he would leave the rest of you alone. Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

This is all wrong. Leomon's not a bad Digimon.

SPEAKER_16

Leomon can fuck him.

SPEAKER_25

Not the Jesus Christ. Those are bad words. That's not good. I don't like that. My mom gets angry when I say those words.

SPEAKER_16

He said he would let us go, and then it was an ambush of three other Digimon against the two of us.

SPEAKER_07

Or four.

SPEAKER_16

No, yeah, three. And then Glitchmon ran, and I hope he's okay, and he cut my friend in half, so I'm a little angry right now.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

I don't know if the healing is working, but she is going to keep trying.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, it's working. Slowly but surely. Cherimon is uh coming back.

SPEAKER_16

But I don't think I don't think it takes any kind of role for them to know that she's like just not okay. Like, I mean the fight was mostly done before they got here, and she had to do the whole thing in Ricky form by herself. But like she's a kid, she's doing the best she can, you know.

SPEAKER_25

It is very quiet, uh, very like somber as this keeps going. As Matt sits there to see, let's go get the others, and we'll uh we'll meet back up as soon as we're set. Ruimon. So he runs over and jumps on top of uh Garumon as they sprint off. Uh as you're left here with Kyo.

SPEAKER_07

I have to try to save my friend.

SPEAKER_25

I get that, that's fine.

SPEAKER_07

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

I never said you could.

SPEAKER_07

I was just telling you I'm not following that right now, because I can't leave until I'm done.

SPEAKER_25

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

And I'm just gonna keep trying until he gets up.

SPEAKER_25

Uh, he's not gonna get up. He is unconscious, for sure. But his wounds do heal. He won't get up for an hour.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Well, either stabilized you're going to have to have Keo tell me when it's time to stop.

SPEAKER_25

Keo's not gonna tell you. He doesn't. He's not gonna stop you from doing your thing.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. We can talk or whatever. I just wanted to make it clear that, like. Because I was gonna do an action if Cherimon did get up, but if he's not gonna get up, then that doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_25

Nah, Cherimon is down for uh a nap, essentially.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, that's fine.

SPEAKER_25

Uh essentially four hours.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Damn. Uh Kyo just sits back and waits as you two stand here. This situation a bit different now. As we switch back to the human world!

SPEAKER_19

I actually wanted to have this talk.

SPEAKER_24

Kyo's not gonna talk.

SPEAKER_16

Can we linger here just sitting there? Just a minute? Sure. Because we were fighting?

SPEAKER_12

Sure.

SPEAKER_07

Um I got the sheep guild. Doesn't that make you upset? It made mad and Ty upset.

SPEAKER_25

I don't. They're not my Digimon.

SPEAKER_07

You're okay. You're not mad at me.

SPEAKER_12

Why would I be mad at you? I don't know.

SPEAKER_16

You're my crew member strong enough to move the boat and I killed another one.

SPEAKER_25

It's not about you moving the boat, it's I don't care.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Um, I only care that you wanna hang out with these guys more than you wanna come be on my pirate crew. I don't wanna hang out with other people. I don't like people. Uh oh.

SPEAKER_07

Why not? Because people hurt people. Something happened.

SPEAKER_24

I don't want to talk about it, Orcamon.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_24

You're always sorry.

SPEAKER_25

It everything you do is sorry as he holds his uh Digivice just grip getting white on it as you see, almost the little black surge. As he Ah Isn't I thought we were gonna be a pirate crew out on the seas having adventures? Instead, we're stuck here with these people doing whatever they want to do, looking for more digidestined.

SPEAKER_07

I don't have a thing for you, but you probably don't want it now.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna reach in the little pouch pockets on my life jacket. Which is conveniently where the chip is now, even though Sangomon did not have pockets.

SPEAKER_03

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

I'm gonna.

SPEAKER_25

Cool. He takes the upgrade chip. And he looks at it and see what do I do, what does it do?

SPEAKER_07

I don't know. It seemed like it needed to get plugged into something. I tried putting it in my egg, but it didn't turn on, so I don't know. I think if you put it in your digivice or whatever, it might affect me, but I don't know what it would do.

SPEAKER_16

And you don't have to put it in there. Just you should have it.

SPEAKER_25

He puts it in his pocket for now. Um he just looks away. Uh yeah, he's little Braddy Kid himself. Yeah, tantrum.

SPEAKER_16

Teenage angst. Teenage angst. Alright, let me make a note on my sheet before we get over to young adult angst.

SPEAKER_25

Um They're definitely going to dark digivolve. You know that, right?

SPEAKER_15

Who's going to dark digivolve?

unknown

Me.

SPEAKER_25

Never mind, you're good. Yeah, sure. No, no, no, no, not at all.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_24

Yeah, dark hero, dark digivolve for sure.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah, that's what I thought. Play once holds him on a short leash.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, anyway. Black Leo Mon no, regular Leomon has my sapotama and it uh on. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

What a time.

SPEAKER_16

I know. I didn't expect to do so well in combat, but I'm so proud.

SPEAKER_25

What a Sangamon time.

SPEAKER_16

I know. Uh and I'm trying to build them differently, so she has had the like tank stuff. Well, good morning in the completely peaceful, wonderful other reality.

SPEAKER_25

Back in the original back in Bape Rack.

SPEAKER_16

Mm-hmm. In all seriousness, if you need me to um to fill time, I did think I would probably text Lena first this morning since I know she gets up at a comparable time to me. And I'm assuming Jojiro is not awake at six or whatever.

SPEAKER_25

Um Lena does wake up at 3 a.m. to go to the gym.

SPEAKER_16

Oh never mind, not comparable. Not comparable time. Okay. Um I'm trying to remember what I wanted to say.

SPEAKER_09

I feel like the rage fog is still kind of clearing.

SPEAKER_21

Um gotta do the uh happy exercises.

SPEAKER_16

I feel like there were two things that uh I think the the only one that I'm gonna remember is um shoot, would she just say it without any reference back to the previous thing?

SPEAKER_03

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_16

I think so. I think Lena just gets a message that says, like, I thought about it and it's not guilt, it's regret.

SPEAKER_09

And then Shelby just puts her phone away as if that makes sense to other people.

SPEAKER_25

Message, message, message.

SPEAKER_14

Like the typing dots or a bunch of messages. Should pull up her phone and look.

SPEAKER_25

You've got three messages. The first all from Lena. The first one, what? The second one is this like a suicide? The third one, don't kill yourself.

SPEAKER_02

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Set.

SPEAKER_16

Um You asked if I was in love with Tojiro, and I said I felt bad about not uh sticking up for him, and I thought about him more, and I think I regret not being d not delete.

SPEAKER_17

So it's like type type type.

SPEAKER_16

Type type not We could have been friends for years now.

SPEAKER_25

Send she sends back Dude, it's like th six in the morning.

SPEAKER_16

I know, but I don't want you to tell him she's only hanging out with you because she feels guilty, cause that's not true. Send.

SPEAKER_01

Three dots. Stop.

SPEAKER_03

Three dots.

SPEAKER_01

Stop.

SPEAKER_03

Oh no.

SPEAKER_01

Three dots. Stop.

SPEAKER_25

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Sorry, not okay, just K.

SPEAKER_10

Alright. I'm put my phone away.

SPEAKER_16

Um we talked about how Shelby got to do like prep for the party in her evenings after school. Let this week, last week, whatever. So she's already bought her present and it's wrapped in stuff. And like everything's ready, so in theory, she just needs time between whatever this is and then party to like come back, get dressed up nice, drive over there.

SPEAKER_23

Sounds rational.

SPEAKER_04

I think I'm gonna text Joe Joe at seven. You up yet?

SPEAKER_25

Four hours later.

SPEAKER_04

Oh what am I gonna do for four hours?

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, he's not a morning person.

SPEAKER_04

You think I care? I'm excited.

SPEAKER_21

Nice. Uh cool.

SPEAKER_25

You uh yeah, what do you what are you doing for your morning as you message this, receive nothing? Hasn't been looked at.

SPEAKER_16

I checked 97 times, still hasn't been looked at. Okay, well I guess I do have I have time to research for once, so I'm just gonna have. Just what's the general like news or blog posts or whatever about the Dude.

SPEAKER_21

One second. Okay.

SPEAKER_25

So for Targi Akane.

SPEAKER_10

Yes.

SPEAKER_25

You actually find a few things. You would find something in the digital times. Targi Akane announces New Youth Education Initiative.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, that sounds good.

SPEAKER_25

The Akane Foundation has announced a new scholarship program aimed at supporting young people pursuing careers in technology, urban development, and future further research into coal heart syndrome. The initiative titled Tomorrow's Partners will fund over 5,000 students annually across the continent. Targi Akane now estimated to be in his late 50s, late early 60s, has been making rare public appearances during the announcement. There's a statement that says, I was fortunate enough to have people invest in me when I was young. This is simply returning that kindness. The Akane Foundation has now funded over 200 hospitals, schools, and community centers worldwide. Business Weekly. About 30 years ago, Akane expanded into logistics, cybernetics, renewable energy, infrastructure, development, robotics, healthcare, and research. Today, Akane Industries employs over 1.8 million people worldwide. Despite this success, the company's founder remains notoriously private. Board members describe him as warm, patient, and frighteningly intelligent. One executive said that he remembers the name of every employee he meets, then somehow remembers them ten years later. Yep. Financial analysts estimate his personal fortune to exceed uh the fortune to exceed the GPD of several smaller nations.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, he's evil.

SPEAKER_25

Uh unlike many corporate leaders, however, Akano still takes no salary beyond the symbolic one credit annual compensation package he established decades ago.

SPEAKER_09

I don't know. I don't know if that's enough to talk me out of this. I don't know for sure what Shelby thinks, but I'm just like, mmm, I don't trust billionaires.

SPEAKER_25

Uh he's a recognizable individual, one of the most recognizable individuals on the planet. Uh, however, he frequently disappears from public view for weeks at a time. Uh there are absences spent visiting remote facilities and charitable projects. Uh independent uh investigators have noted that many of the locations coincide with certain activity reports that happen across the world with uh research into Cold Heart. There have been potential sightings that he is usually at ground zero when heavy cases of cold heart pop up. Uh the company tends to decline to comment on these matters. Uh, conspiracy forums propose things from he's got secret government contracts to the existence of a small like group that works under him, that he might be the cause of cold part. Others say that he has the cure for cold heart but has never released it. All of the fun things. Uh, no evidence supports these claims has ever surfaced. Uh there is some smaller articles. Old billionaire stops highway project personally. Uh witness report uh Targi spent six hours negotiating with local residents after a construction dispute. The project was redesigned rather than forcing relocation. Uh Akane Industry's janitor receives lifetime pension. Retiring employee was gifted a home, and uh after 40 years of service, company representatives refuse to disclose who approved the purchase, though many suspect Akane himself. Uh former cyber criminal hired by Akane Industries. Foundation's con uh the foundation's controversial rehabilitation program continues to produce uh I lost it. Unexpected success stories, critics remain divided on the policy. Uh specifically, uh, this talks about uh a connection with a name that you have seen you have heard before.

SPEAKER_08

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

One second, I've just gotta find them. So many people. Uh you would see that it lists the names Loria Langlorn.

SPEAKER_16

Um just making sure I'm writing it down correctly, she was one of the cyber criminals in the rehab program. Yep. Okay. Got it.

SPEAKER_25

Uh, Targi Akane refuses Lifetime Achievement Award. For the fourth consecutive year, Akane just climbed an international award ceremony, stating only that there are people who deserve recognition more than I do. These are all the things you find on him.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, and like basic question. Obviously, there's gonna be a picture of him somewhere. It does look like the guy I ran into at the cleaner office.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah. Hands down, good to see this dude here. Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Alright.

SPEAKER_13

I don't know if I want to go anywhere else with that right now, but it's good to have uh basic stuff.

SPEAKER_16

Um I want to know now if Team Tactics Nine is a public-facing organization or not. So, like, are there things written about them or are they secret and there's no results?

SPEAKER_25

You don't find shit on Team Tactics Nine.

SPEAKER_16

Got it.

SPEAKER_25

Tactics Team Nine.

SPEAKER_16

Tactics Team Nine, my bad.

SPEAKER_13

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Now we're just gonna do all of the research questions that have been stockpiling for months. Um, are there like tamer profiles that have like the date you registered as a cleaner and the date that you hit this button?

SPEAKER_25

Not accessible to the public.

SPEAKER_16

I'm not the public, I'm the cleaner.

SPEAKER_24

That's public.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, so we don't have like a database in the bounty app or anything that says No, there's no like, oh, this is this person's definitely a cleaner.

SPEAKER_25

There's things like you would have a registry, but they it's yeah, it's a government registry. It's like, cool, no, we're not gonna give you everyone else's name.

SPEAKER_16

Sure. So I probably cannot find out what Keo's rank is or anything like that. Dang it.

SPEAKER_10

There goes that whole arc not happening.

SPEAKER_25

You do find it funny though. There is like a ranking of things. They told you about the ranking when you joined.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_25

Lamp lighters. Tactics team nine isn't amongst like anywhere on that list.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

Meaning she said oh, they all said that Keo left to join a stronger like thing, uh like higher ranked team. So that doesn't make a lot of sense.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Um, the other thing that I was kind of asking about because like we were able to check my ranking, and I was just barely in the top 500 of individuals or whatever. Can we see other people's rankings, or is it just like, hey, your account dashboard has your ranking?

SPEAKER_25

Your account dashboard has your ranking.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Um I don't expect this to work, but Sakan and I had that whole thing about researching members of teams before. When I had the apps. Uh do we find Kio listed on any of any team?

SPEAKER_25

No, so that stuff wasn't because it was registering teams, it's because they had advertisements. That's what they told people.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, that's fine.

SPEAKER_25

I just wanted to do completely like announcing, hey, this is our thing.

SPEAKER_18

Okay, yeah. T T nine, it's not listed.

SPEAKER_16

What time is it? Are we at? 11 yet. Do we still have time to film? Not even close.

SPEAKER_21

We have time to film. That's okay, cuz you hear a knock at your door.

SPEAKER_16

Tell me I have one of those peepholes that lets you look out.

SPEAKER_09

I look out. I'm gonna walk as quietly as I can if I look out.

SPEAKER_25

You do. There's no one out there.

SPEAKER_16

No, I'm not opening the door for that.

SPEAKER_17

What about this character makes you think that she's going to open the door?

SPEAKER_25

Underneath the door a piece of paper slides through.

SPEAKER_09

Is it all the way through or is it only partially through?

SPEAKER_21

All the way through.

SPEAKER_16

Okay, if Whisby went invisible and through the wall, is that two signature uses?

SPEAKER_25

In theory, yeah. It's going intangible, but it's also going in business.

SPEAKER_09

Right, it's multiple effects. I'll go look at the paper. Still being as quiet as I can because there's multiple people who could show up at my house that I don't want to know that this is my house.

SPEAKER_25

Uh stab going to stab a body with the words uh I know you're in there underlined. I see you.

SPEAKER_09

How well drawn is this?

SPEAKER_25

Badly.

SPEAKER_17

How's the spelling?

SPEAKER_01

Beautiful.

SPEAKER_05

I see you.

SPEAKER_16

What the fro, I already had enough stress here today.

SPEAKER_09

What are you even doing to me?

SPEAKER_25

And it's also got an arrow to turn it over.

SPEAKER_09

I'm so tempted to just draw a better drawing of a guy with a knife and send it back under the door.

SPEAKER_25

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_09

I'll flip it over, yeah.

SPEAKER_25

It's got a uh it's got a picture of a guy hiding behind a curtain. A little stick for the girl hiding behind a curtain, and it says, I'm in your bathtub.

SPEAKER_11

How would it have gotten sent through the front door?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Hmm. I only have the desk chair. Is my desk chair made in such a way that if I rolled it over here and braced it underneath the doorknob, I could just lock my bathroom completely shut.

SPEAKER_25

Possibly. Oh no, sorry, the bathroom's a slide door.

SPEAKER_09

The bathroom's a slide door.

SPEAKER_16

Oh gotta love those pocket doors. Alright.

SPEAKER_01

Love it.

SPEAKER_16

Do I own any large piece of furniture? I can just move over there. Probably not.

SPEAKER_17

I mean just relocate the bridge to be in front of the I don't need the bathroom, you can starve in there.

SPEAKER_16

Um the bathroom sliding door open or shut.

SPEAKER_25

Uh the bathroom sliding door is currently shut.

SPEAKER_09

I don't need this today.

SPEAKER_26

I was having a good day!

SPEAKER_16

That's well, yeah, the first few hours are just great. Um, since the ground is all blur, I'm assuming I'm on like the second floor of a building or something. Yeah. So there's no just like we go out the window.

SPEAKER_25

No. Come on, man, we can make it and climb into one of your neighbor's rooms if you'd like.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, let's go to the one with the blood splat all over everything. I'm sure they're very well.

SPEAKER_12

You don't talk about that one.

SPEAKER_17

No, it's definitely the room that's most accustomed to having random people break into it.

SPEAKER_09

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_10

I don't know if somebody is just being stupid.

SPEAKER_16

Or what. But this note, I will show him the drawing. Which I know he can't read, but says there's somebody in the bathtub who's threatening to kill me. So I'd like you to go into the bathroom. And if there's a bad person, attack them. Is that okay?

SPEAKER_01

Not.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, I'm gonna move up here, and I will like fling the door open or pull it, depending on which direction it goes, but just wh.

SPEAKER_25

Slides open as uh Whispy runs in. Uh there's no one in there. As you hear from behind you, what are you looking for? As you would see turn to see someone in your house uh wearing sorry, wearing a Jason Vorthy's mask, just standing here eating popcorn.

SPEAKER_16

Wispy, come back.

SPEAKER_25

That is he. That's a wispy.

SPEAKER_24

What the what is wrong with you? You would see your brother. See. What? I didn't- It was funny. It was funny. You didn't open the door, so I had to go through your neighbors. He's a lovely guy. Really nice dude.

SPEAKER_25

And I climbed the balcony and I came in your back door. Keep that locked. There could be some weird those out here. How are you doing? You got a cat?

SPEAKER_11

Get my address.

SPEAKER_25

Mom gave it to me?

SPEAKER_11

I didn't give it to her.

SPEAKER_24

You think mom and dad don't know where you live? Yes! Come on now.

SPEAKER_11

They haven't tried to sell this place out from under me or get rid of everything I owned, I was pretty sure.

SPEAKER_24

They've known where you've been living since day one.

SPEAKER_25

They always check in on they that's what they do. Very uh intrusive in that manner.

SPEAKER_11

I know!

SPEAKER_25

I thought I would look really nice!

SPEAKER_11

Thank you.

SPEAKER_24

This look really good.

SPEAKER_11

I thought I was finally just bunked down on the bed.

SPEAKER_25

You d you're independent, don't worry. You're doing good. Everything seems cool here. Look at this place, this looks awesome! And don't worry, just because they know where you are, that doesn't mean anything. They knew where I lived the first day that I moved out. That's them. I you can run away as much as you want. Dad has enough money to send a private investigator to find you, so you can't go anywhere. Hey little guy, what's uh what's this one's name? What's with the gem things on it? Uh Gemmon's just staring at him. Not sure what to do.

SPEAKER_08

Black Gem1X, it's your choice. You do not have to let this person touch you if you don't want.

SPEAKER_25

Seems confused. I have let's touch.

SPEAKER_24

Wow, what's I don't know what what's wrong? Is it was it the drawing?

SPEAKER_19

Yes.

SPEAKER_24

It's pretty cr it was pretty mean. It was pretty mean. But I thought it would be fun, you know.

SPEAKER_19

I have almost died like that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_24

What do you mean you've almost died?

SPEAKER_19

Oh, mom and dad didn't tell you that.

SPEAKER_24

Mom and dad don't tell me everything.

unknown

I

SPEAKER_25

I had to fly in this morning and I said, where's Shelby staying? And Dad said, uh, she's over on uh the west side in this apartment building. That's all I've gotten out of them in the last three months. They don't tell me actual things that are happening.

SPEAKER_24

Dad talks to me about business.

SPEAKER_16

Whoa, I told both of them that I almost got killed. It's been a week ago today.

SPEAKER_25

So, like, not a- What happened? He grabs you by the arms and starts like checking you as he. What happened? Did you like get cut were you were you attacked? How? What happened?

SPEAKER_16

So, um, I don't know what he would see. I'm trying to remember the fight from session one. I think it was mostly like blunt damage, and it's only a week out, and she did almost die.

SPEAKER_09

So there probably is still some bruising on her arms while she's like tr like sh trying to block it and stuff.

SPEAKER_25

Jesus Christ, Shelby.

SPEAKER_09

What happened?

SPEAKER_25

What I did some. Was this someone that you knew? Was this were you mugged?

SPEAKER_16

What I think we need to back up to maybe you apologize because your joke wasn't funny. And then we can start again.

SPEAKER_25

My joke wasn't funny.

SPEAKER_16

But you could see that sending threatening notes to a single woman living alone is normally gonna be funny.

SPEAKER_27

Ever? You know, it it would it was just a joke. It's a thing.

SPEAKER_25

That this is not- I never intended it to be mean.

SPEAKER_16

Well, it's never gonna be funny. You could do this until we're in our 70s, and it's never gonna be funny.

SPEAKER_24

You would have you would have had a bit of a pa uh bit of a panic moment. Uh you didn't even react. There was a guy with the mask on in your thing, and you said wispy. I don't know what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_16

I was in the middle of storming up to you to ask what the fuck your problem was and to throw you out the window and watch you hit the cement.

SPEAKER_24

Yeah, that's not a normal reaction, sh- I haven't had a great week. You should have been running out the door. Why? Cause the crazy person in your Yeah, well he's gonna regret it! Shouldn't we fucking start stuff?

SPEAKER_25

Um You got lots of bruises for someone who's uh so sure that they're gonna beat uh beat up a serial killer in their apartment.

SPEAKER_16

Get a motion for black gen monarchs to come over here. Just can you can you physically manage the words I'm sorry for upsetting you this morning or something?

SPEAKER_25

I'm sorry for upsetting you this morning, Shelby. Come on, you haven't seen me in ages. Can can we not just be oh be big brother little sister for a second?

SPEAKER_16

We could work up to it, but this was not a good intro. Also, your proportions suck. Now crumble up the note and blow it at him.

SPEAKER_24

I'm sorry I'm not an artist!

SPEAKER_16

Get the stupid chair. Bring it back over here.

SPEAKER_25

He gets it and brings the chair over his seat. Oh. Alright. What's oh what's been happening? What have you been up to? Besides almost dying.

SPEAKER_13

Um I can't believe mom and dad were happening.

SPEAKER_03

I'm still on that.

SPEAKER_16

I I yeah.

SPEAKER_24

Of course they knew. What did you expect? You know what dad does. What does dad do?

SPEAKER_25

It's a lot of logistics. It's a lot of research and things that he deals with. He works for a big, like big corporation. But regardless, he has a fair amount of money. Well, that I know Enough money to make sure that his precious little girl is always safe.

SPEAKER_19

Except he fucked up.

SPEAKER_25

I mean, yeah, it seems so.

SPEAKER_16

Don't tell him that. He will just tighten the noose and then I will.

SPEAKER_25

Don't tighten that noose, so don't. He's probably already tightened that noose.

SPEAKER_16

Why can't they just let me have something that I like?

SPEAKER_25

I mean. I don't know. Dad's You You have less of uh less experience with dad.

SPEAKER_14

He's um By virtue of being younger, yes, I do.

SPEAKER_25

By virtue of being younger, yeah, exactly. Yeah. He He was uh always a bit uh dad-like, but he um he cares in his own ways. Mom Mom changed. Mom changed hard. But that's just mom.

SPEAKER_16

What do you mean she changed?

SPEAKER_25

Oh money, all the things there, everything about it sort of I feel like that sort of got to her. She just started being a people pleaser.

SPEAKER_16

Sorry, one second. Can you check your DMs?

SPEAKER_21

Yeah. Uh I'm not sure what name you chose.

SPEAKER_25

I think it was Excellent. I it was something like Tamaki. Yeah, wasn't it?

SPEAKER_16

I was waffling between Tamaki and Takashi or something, because they both shortened down into nicknames, and I was like, you need to figure out this character's name, child.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, let's see. Let's let's go with Tamaki. Sorry. Mom changed because the money became a people pleaser.

SPEAKER_25

What did he Takashi?

SPEAKER_10

Takashi.

SPEAKER_25

Takashi was the thing. You have a note here. Tokyo University.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, okay. Yeah, sorry. Um what did he major in? Uh obviously he went to university as well.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, he went to university. He was good at stuff.

SPEAKER_17

I know, but like not going to university wasn't an option.

SPEAKER_25

Uh what did he study? I have this down somewhere. Uh he's a doctor. He is a full-fledged doctor. He studied medicine.

SPEAKER_16

Um, I'm gonna roll. I'm gonna roll Brit because I'm trying to decide if he's more like dad, and I should just tell him I got attacked by a Digimon or more like mom, and I should be like, yeah, it was a wild animal. Mm-hmm. Cause I don't want him to think I'm crazy.

SPEAKER_25

12. That said, your dad did say he like when you said it was a Digimon, he was like, Oh, I see.

SPEAKER_16

Right, I know. But mom was like, What's that, sweetheart? Yeah, it's it's a rabid animal. I just want to know if Taca's more like, yes, I understand what that is, or like I don't think those are a thing.

SPEAKER_25

It's hard. Can you give me a curve? Let's let's see how you separate it. Give me a brains and a charm roll.

SPEAKER_07

Sure.

SPEAKER_25

Uh whichever's higher isn't the logical sense of thinking that Shelby does towards her brother.

SPEAKER_16

I mean, they are both D20 plus six.

SPEAKER_25

Charm 13. More in line with the emotion. You're pretty, like. You're smart, but but it's not like a huge difference. You're not just in the thought process. However, your brother often is the type to sit there and be like, yeah, yeah, of course, and like sit there and agree, but you think that it's sort of like that they're agreeing, but they definitely don't believe you.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

And it's not an actual agreement, it's platin uh platitudes. Right. Is that the truth? Maybe not. That might just be interpreted.

SPEAKER_16

We have a six-year age gap, so like he would look different, think different than me a lot of the time growing up. Alright. Okay, backing up. No, it's not somebody I know. No, it wasn't a person. It was closer to an animal, I guess.

SPEAKER_27

I got an animal?

SPEAKER_18

Don't worry about it.

SPEAKER_25

Ruff, have you been to the hospital? They uh, if it was a rapid animal uh rabid animal, you could have ended up with I don't have any rabies, it's okay. Of course you don't. You don't have any bite marks. Then what are you? There are a lot more things than rabies. I went animals can give you.

SPEAKER_16

I went to a facility, it's okay. But thank you for at least expressing care. I was pretty sure that we weren't capable of that in the Koji house.

SPEAKER_27

I would I've I've always expressed care, Shelby. I always cared that things worked out.

SPEAKER_16

I just wanted mom and dad to care. And they have decided I use drugs which I don't. And are trying to put me into a rehab program, which is gonna go great because when I'm like, I don't have a problem, they're gonna be like, of course you don't. And it's like, no, I've literally never used any of these things. So how much better can I get than bleh? Why would I take that? Speaking of which, if they ask you, please say no. I didn't see any signs that she needs to go to a drug place and get locked up and then lose her job.

SPEAKER_25

Just because you're can't tell them all the plants that you're growing here are marijuana?

SPEAKER_09

They're not. You know, you're not a botanist or whatever.

SPEAKER_25

It'd be so much more fun to tell them that and say their reaction. Okay.

SPEAKER_27

Uh oh. I'm not trying I'm not gonna destroy your life. It's just messing with mom and dad, it's always fun.

SPEAKER_16

Mess with them about something else. Please.

SPEAKER_27

Alright, alright. Okay, don't worry.

SPEAKER_25

Very sensitive this morning. Did I catch you at a like bad time? Do you have something on today? No, you don't. You've got mom's birthday. I was gonna see if you wanted to go together.

SPEAKER_16

What do you mean, no?

SPEAKER_25

You can head over there and set up stuff.

SPEAKER_16

I'm not setting up anything. I arranged all the shit already. This is my contribution.

SPEAKER_25

Come on now.

SPEAKER_16

No.

SPEAKER_25

You can't just leave it, because then if it's not right, you know you're gonna get dad and mom having a big thing about how Shelby was supposed to do this.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, then they can do that. And I'm gonna look them dead in the eyes and be like, who's emotional now? I'm not doing it. You can do that and continue being the perfect child, it's fine. But no, I don't want to go together.

SPEAKER_27

What's with the hostility here?

SPEAKER_16

Um Why are you just deciding that I don't have anything to do? And because I don't have- You said you don't have anything to do.

SPEAKER_19

Yes, you did. I asked you.

SPEAKER_16

Do you have anything on today? No, you don't. Do you want to go together? Literally just said that.

SPEAKER_25

I said that you shouldn't because you have mom's thing. It was an assumption, it wasn't a telling. Okay. I'm I should go. Okay. I'm I'd see what's happening. Alright. He gets up, pushes the chair back. I'm not trying to cause an issue here, Shelby. I came because honestly, mom and dad don't think you're even gonna show up tonight.

SPEAKER_16

Why wouldn't I show up? My attendance is mandatory.

SPEAKER_25

Because every time that they want you to do something, you don't want to do it. And at this point, I think it's gotten to the point where if you don't want to do it, then don't do it.

SPEAKER_16

Like with this party stuff, Dad was like, here's a list of all the things you need to do. I've already sent you money, and then I got beaten up, and I was like, Dad, I'm dealing with a lot, I can't do it, you need to do it. And he was like, I'll just send you the list again and more money because you're gonna do it. I did it! That's enough. And I will be there because I said to mom that I was gonna be there. Am I gonna enjoy it? No, probably not.

SPEAKER_24

Then why come?

SPEAKER_25

Why come? I I get that they're this is the only family I get.

SPEAKER_24

It's like you don't want that family though. It's like you don't want us.

SPEAKER_16

You are a little bit different because you at least try to see me.

SPEAKER_24

I'm not different. I'm I'm just trying.

SPEAKER_16

I know that makes you different. I went to them for comfort because I was scared and hurt, and they said, Don't talk to me, go get a therapist, and I'm gonna send you to drug rehab because you're an addict. Neither one of them was like, Wow, that must have been a lot.

SPEAKER_11

I'm glad you're okay. Do you need anything?

SPEAKER_16

They just all blamed me for stuff, and I really honestly thought I had managed to start over. They know where I live and they're watching me.

SPEAKER_18

And mom's trying to get me to quit my job so she can buy a different job for me. Holy shit, and I just wanna be my own person.

SPEAKER_25

Leave. Just leave.

SPEAKER_20

I did.

SPEAKER_25

You didn't. You told them you were leaving. You walked away and you still go there, you still see us, you still interact. And now you want something without doing the thing that you need to do.

SPEAKER_14

What's the thing that I need to do to make them okay with me? What?

SPEAKER_25

Maybe you need to think of a completely different question there. Cause maybe it's not about what you need to do to make them okay with you, but what you need to do to make you okay with you. We're not trying to hold you down, Shelby. I'm not.

SPEAKER_20

I know.

SPEAKER_25

Maybe mom and dad are a little, but that's them. They suck at that, but that's them. I'm gonna go. I shouldn't have come here. Hopefully I see you tonight. If not, well tell mom and dad that you are sick or something. He heads out.

SPEAKER_10

Sh you do this, man.

SPEAKER_20

I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_16

Why is that his intro? Hey, it's a death threat, and like another fucking guy!

SPEAKER_20

You wanna go?

SPEAKER_16

I didn't punch Julian, I got some rage still. I can give you this shirt fine.

SPEAKER_25

Ugh. It was literally just me sitting there like, he's gotta be a little a little bit dumb of the like, okay, I wanna make like I wanna joke around and I want it to be like a thing of like, fucking what did you do, etc. And like disarm you a little bit, and then that.

SPEAKER_16

But just the it's a perfect storm of the wrong topic, the wrong time, because like what if what if Julian escaped and he's coming at me now?

SPEAKER_12

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_16

What if it's Itanda Lolo who repeatedly gets places while being invisible and could literally be standing in this room with me.

SPEAKER_23

He could be. Lolo can be anywhere.

SPEAKER_16

Right? So it's not unreasonable to be like, this is not this is funny.

SPEAKER_24

The literal fact is though, he has no fucking idea who a Tanta Lolo is.

SPEAKER_08

Well, I know, I know.

SPEAKER_25

Or that you were attacked, more than anything is gonna His thing was like, she's a school teacher, it's gonna be gonna be the scariest day of her year.

SPEAKER_14

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. This is like, why won't you guys fucking quit?

SPEAKER_25

Oh jeez. I bought a mask on the way here and was like, this is what I'll do, this will be so fucking funny.

SPEAKER_16

I was like, because he's standing over here, he's got his mask and whatever.

SPEAKER_14

I was holding my token with this movement in the middle of saying, what the fuck is your problem? And just walking up to him when you had him take the mask off. And I was like, Well, never mind.

SPEAKER_17

But like, oh, or it could have been the yacht.

SPEAKER_24

It is a bum boom, like if if you think about it, it's a crazy fucking idea. It really is. It is the dumbest shit he could have done.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah. So I'm sorry I couldn't just roll with it, but it's just like really.

SPEAKER_25

That was never meant to be a roll with it situation. Okay. I knew that it was dumb, and I'm like, he's gonna do something stupidly dumb so you can get like up him a little bit.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, okay. How'd it go? Did it turn out the way you wanted?

SPEAKER_25

Oh damn. Hot damn.

SPEAKER_11

Can't believe you told me not to come back.

SPEAKER_10

It really is.

SPEAKER_16

Because it's just like she moved out without telling them where she lived. She got her own job, she got her own car, sh bought all of the stuff that's in here. She's trying to make her own life, and then it's just like one, none of that mattered, and two, you didn't leave hard enough. Like, the options are be in a stranglehold with this family for the rest of your life, or never talk to anyone again, apparently. And that's so messed up that it's like we can't even stay in contact if I'm not living in your house and letting you dictate everything to me. That's basically what he said. Which is rough.

SPEAKER_24

I mean, yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Whoa. Uh okay.

SPEAKER_25

But um, yeah, in up to this moment, you sit down. Uh it would probably be.

SPEAKER_16

I think I'm just gonna give him a f a few minutes to leave. Like if my balcony looks over the parking lot at all, I am watching for that car to go. And once he leaves, I am locking every fucking door and I am getting out of here.

unknown

Yep.

SPEAKER_16

Because I wanna be anywhere other than here right now.

SPEAKER_27

Where are we going?

SPEAKER_16

I don't know.

SPEAKER_27

Oh. Oh, that man was nice. He he gave nice head scratches.

SPEAKER_19

You liked that?

SPEAKER_27

Yes, he was very nice. And he smelled sort of like Shelby.

SPEAKER_16

Hmm. We're siblings, so I guess maybe that's why.

SPEAKER_27

Mm-hmm. I would say so. Which he just stares off into the distance.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. Let's go to the car. I won't figure out uh something.

SPEAKER_25

Head down to your car. Getting in it. No real uh ID.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

See, the thing is I don't have a lot of places. I could arguably go to the hideout, but I don't necessarily want to, because if somehow they did not hear they were going on a date, I just don't feel like, you know, that's a thing we need to be doing.

SPEAKER_25

Disgusting yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Yes, we're not going there. We're not going to school. We're not going to that bar that I've seen is so bad. Wait, he's banned!

SPEAKER_14

Tajiro is No Tajiro's not banned from the bar that is so bad smash stuff in.

SPEAKER_25

Oh, the bar. Yeah. You head back to the bar. Um.

SPEAKER_16

I don't know.

SPEAKER_25

She's avoiding a soap now as well.

SPEAKER_11

Well, I don't need to see him in the middle of the day, too!

SPEAKER_16

I told him I would be busy with cleaner stuff all week. Or weekends.

SPEAKER_24

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_11

This is cleaner stuff, he's on my team.

SPEAKER_24

He seems so a good friend. Uh, as you come in here and like nine in the morning. The guy behind the bar sits there as he looks at you as he shakes his head, cleaning a glass.

SPEAKER_25

There's judgment in his eyes.

SPEAKER_16

They're open.

SPEAKER_25

Uh, you do see uh someone up on stage as there is a man down in front of him just yelling out stuff as he. Oh yeah. That uh pretty good, pretty good, but maybe take it down just a notch, just a little notch. Uh this is the only person in this bar, as you'd see. We can uh we can definitely do something else with that. Let's spin it up and then retry it. Okay, hit me with it. As uh you'd hear just remixes of songs as someone is playing full dubstep here, is he? Nice, nice. It's pretty good, pretty good. Um, got a morning regular, wow. Uh hear the dog indeed. Oh shoot, did he start a day?

SPEAKER_11

Did he see me?

SPEAKER_24

Yeah, he sees you standing there, isn't he?

SPEAKER_16

Dang it.

SPEAKER_24

Oh, he doesn't interact with you.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, cool. If he doesn't interact with me, if he's just talking, I'm gonna club the digimon.

SPEAKER_25

Turns back.

SPEAKER_16

They're fine.

SPEAKER_25

Now you just need to spin that one up and run fast.

SPEAKER_16

You know what I just realized? So it's like, where do I wanna sit? I'm bringing the kitchen ghost back in.

SPEAKER_03

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_25

Um I'm just gonna roll to see if that guy's uh on shift. Nah, he's not on shift today.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_16

So I'll look around to see if I recognize either of them, and then when I don't, we'll just come in and sit kind of in this corner where there's not as many people.

SPEAKER_25

There's no one in this bar at the moment.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, I know, but it's kind of secluded from like it's in this corner, you know? Sure. I don't feel like I'm in the way. I will order one of the fruit smoothies if they're still willing to serve them to me without Lena being here. Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

They're like, oh you must know, uh You must know Lena. Yeah, I can set that up for you.

SPEAKER_10

It looks good the last time that she uh she had one.

SPEAKER_25

Yeah, well we'll make one up for you. You can just sit there and we'll bring it out.

SPEAKER_18

Thank you so much.

SPEAKER_25

Uh T. As they head off. Uh you'd hear no no no. That's not it's not copacetic enough. This whole place is an amphitheater and we need to be rocking it. This is this is a disgrace to modern. Okay.

SPEAKER_16

I really expect the answer to be no. It's not, but I'm just gonna just check on my phone and see what Vex looks like since I just only heard of this person last night.

Nice. Uh I always I'm always happy to have cleaners in my establishment. Digimon are always welcome when I'm here. Most of my boys don't know them though. So next time you come in, it might be better if you go to the private rooms. So uh when you enter in, uh just come in through the back back here.

SPEAKER_19

Okay.

SPEAKER_25

Uh through this door down here.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_25

SPEAKER_19

Alright, cool. Sure.

SPEAKER_25

My morning was a dumpster fire. But hey! Next session I get to find out what Tojiro thinks the date is, decide what, if anything, I'm gonna do about my family being on fire, and then decide if I'm going to a concert that starts at 9 p.m. on a school night, knowing that I have to be up at 5 a.m. the next morning, and I probably will not be home until midnight. Question mark.

SPEAKER_05

The answer's probably yes. I I'm probably going to go. Anyway, thanks for listening. Glad to have you here, and I hope that we made you laugh, and we'll see you again next week. Bye, but I'm not sure.
