Once in the warehouse, after Celeste went into the egg, it began to emit a slight glow.
Inside the egg wasn't a body, per se, but data that would form into a body. It would still be easy enough for Celeste to take it over. Once doing so, a body would form.
Outside, Cuttah gave a sigh and went over to Lezard, grabbed his arm, and started pulling him away.
"I don't care if this is an awkward time, I'm making up for lost time, Lezard."
Lezard, a bit confused, just went with it. Rippah gave a small wave as they exited the warehouse. And Tab... he didn't get CuttahXLezard. He really didn't. In the future, he still wouldn't get it. Perhaps he would never get it. He was also still used to the more volatile Cuttah and wasn't aware of her talk with Crystal.
As time would pass, the goo surrounding the egg would be absorbed into the egg, expanding somewhat as well. And after the stated 15 minutes (give or take a couple), the egg would hatch, revealing to the rest of the group the new body of Celeste.

Crystal was lying down on her stomach on top of Sanoske's head with her head proped up on top of hand. Her legs occasionally rocking back and forth in an almost swimming pattern as her patience. Of course she was not eavesdropping on to what was going on with Cuttah and Lezard. Or at least she wasn't trying to. With the room being as quiet as it appeared to be, it would prove difficult to not listen in on the pair if they were within hearing distance.
"How long is this whole egg thing suppose to take anyways?" She wondered aloud as all the waiting was getting to her. "Shouldn't she have hatched by now? You don't think she might have..."
"Don't you dare say another word." Mel threatened, the wait obviously getting to him as well. This had to be the longest fifteen minutes in his whole life.
The pair, or the trio as Pure was there to, waiting with as much anticipation and anxiousness as the rest of them, returned back to silently waiting. Fortunately that wait wasn't for much longer.
The first sign of the egg hatching was a sharp cracking noise which coincide with a crack that had formed along the top hafe of the egg. Then came another, and then another. Eventually the top half of the egg would pop open to reveal what was inside. A pink version of Conomon or Zerimon with two spikes on top of her head. However there was one major difference between a normal Fresh level digimon and Celeste right now.
"So... I'm guessing that it worked. How do I look? And why do I have no arms or legs? And feel so tiny?" Celeste asked in her new forms voice. Apparently having maintained her relative intelligence despite her technical newborn state.
((To be honest, I'm not sure Celeste would start in her new fresh state, but this felt like the easiest way to go about starting this at this time.))

As Lezard and Cuttah had their alone time (which more or less consisted of the two of them sitting down, Cuttah holding Lezards arm and leaning on him, and Lezard afraid of speaking in case someone overheard them), the others waited.
Tab was the least tense. He knew Celeste would be fine. He wouldn't give them an egg he didn't believe would serve them fully, and he would know if something was wrong.
Sanoske merely laid down, waiting with Crystal for the egg to hatch. He considered putting on some sort of illusionary show but it figured it would be in poor taste.
Rippah was just going through the stuff in his pouch. Cleaning out his shotgun, eating some cheesecake, making sure his supplies were fine, eating some cheese cake, and otherwise keeping himself busy.
Once Celeste emerged from her egg, Tab went up to her. He expected to see her in a not-newborn state. However, it seemed like Celeste didn't have much data on her. All was still fine, the result was just a little unexpected.
Still, Tab stood up, clapped a couple times before pointing to Rippah.
After getting his attention, Tab began a long series of motions, with Rippah nodding on occassion. This would take a couple minute as Tab would have a fair bit to say. The others could probably piece together some of what the Liquidramon said, but Rippah was also used to the Charades and could figure it out the easiest.
"*Burrraap* Well, Tab just said that he expected to see her in an older state, but this is fine. She simply has to grow into *beeellch* her body. As a Hylden, however, Celeste could potentially abandon her body and possess someone else, but Tab would like it if you took good care of the body."
^And you gathered all that from Tab's... motions?^
"It takes some getting used to *hurrrp*. And can't only certain Digimon understand you anyways?"
^Fair enough.^[//b]

Mel looked at his sister after hearing everything Tab (and by extension, Rippah) had to say. The possessed Terriermon seemingly debating over something. Then, after taking a deep breath, Mel seemed to have come to a conclusion.
"I have to admit. I didn't quite expect to see my sister like this either. Still... Seeing how long she's been stuck in our world in a weakened state, it isn't surprising that her data would be so heavily compromised."
"Heavily compromised?
"But regardless. You have accomplished what you all set at out to do. So I guess I should thank you." Mel finished with a surprising bow.
"Wait... What are you talking about?"
There was something about this that was bothering Crystal about this though. A small frown present during the entirety of Mel's speech. Not even the shock from the bow at the end seemed to have ended that.
"You said she could still possess people Tab. Doesn't that mean that she could still be dangerous. What if she decides she doesn't like her body and wants a brand new one? Is there anyway we could make sure to keep her in check?" An unusually pessimistic viewpoint from the lopmon, but not an unexpected one given what she's been through.
"I'm still here you know. And can hear every word your saying. Now can someone tell me when I'll get my arms or legs back, please? I have an itch on my nose and it is killing me." Celeste pleaded to the others. Hoping that she would get a direct answer this time. All the while trying in vain to scratch at her nose. "That's it. I'm adding a 'death nose scratcher' to my new suit. This is torture."

Tab offered a bow himself in response to Mel. It was nice to actually make a complete body after all these years. It was like being appreciated for a work of art.
But Crystal still had some surfacing reservations about this hearing that Celeste could still possess someone else. While Celeste's confusion hadn't escaped anyone's notice, Tab responded to Crystal.
He started with a silent but obvious chuckle, and then pointed to the Lopmon, an then to Celeste, before drawing a finger across his neck. Sanoske didn't need any translator for this...
^Kill her ourselves?^ He didn't seem too surprised at the gesture. Despite Tab being a big help during this ordeal, through the scant memories of his creator he had he more knew Tab as a warlord of sorts. While he was probably thinking too deeply into this, Celeste was now their problem.
^I do not think it should come to that. It will be nothing but misery for us.^
A phantom claw then appeared in front of the babified Digimon before scratching her nose.
^I also do not think it would be wise to create an object prefixed with 'Death' made to use on yourself.
Crystal, honey, I know where your concerns stem from, but do not concern yourself over it.^
Granted, given Celeste's current condition, she'd be far too week to fully possess most digimon.

Crystal, Mel, Celeste, and even Pure were all taken back by what Tab had advised them to do. If for slightly different reasons from one another.
Mel threw himself into a defensive stance in front of his sister's new body. A feral look on his face as he looked at Tab and Crystal. "Kill Celeste?! My sister that I've gone through more then my fair share of trouble trying to save! I dare you to even try!" He challenged as he awaited for someone in the group to attack him.
Uhh... Mel. Pure called out to his possessor's mind, I don't think anyone actually intends to kill your sister. Sanoske had already mention that doing so would only cause all of us a great deal of pain that isn't worth. So could you please calm down, because I don't want to have to prevent you from hurting someone.
Mel remained hardened for a moment as he looked at the group. Then looked behind at Celeste who seemed to be enjoying getting her nose scratched. Sighing, his features soften as he backed down. Saying a half-mumbled "Fine..." under his breath.
A small sigh of relief left Crystal's mouth as that short crisis seemed to have solved itself. The lopmon guessing that Pure had talked the Hylden down. She had to admit though. Despite knowing full well that it was Mel talking, it hurt her slightly hearing Pure's voice call someone else 'Sister' like that.
"I'm sorry Sanoske. I just don't like the idea of risking someone else becoming possessed by a Hylden if I can prevent it." She told her boyfriend honestly with a sigh, "Yet that does not mean I want to kill her either."
After her nose itch has been taken care of, Celeste took the opportunity to breath a sigh of relief. She then decided to chime in at the discussion at hand. "If it helps. I lack both the strength and willingness to take control of any other digimon at this time. And why would I want to anyways. While this body is... Different then I'm use to. I am curious to see just how exactly it will change and evolve." She then looked at Tab with a curious look, "No chance you know what I will end up looking like. Do you?"
Crystal seemed to take that moment to take a better look at Celeste's new body. "I have to admit. You do look slightly familiar. Hmm..." She just couldn't quite remember why though despite it being at the tip of her tongue.

Rippah continued to speak for Tab. At this moment, however, he was reminded of Betty the Flamedramon.
*Hurrrap* "Celeste is your issue now. Deal with her as you please should the situation calls for it. However I'd also agree with Sanoske.
Anyway, as for Celeste's form... *urrrp* Let's just say that her forms will be pause for emphasis... wait I wasn't *belch* supposed to say that?
Sorry... uh... her forms will fitting among you bunnies, with a bit of the Tab flavor. Tab as in me not Tab as in the soda.
*Belch* I could use a soda about now... Oh, uh... that's not Soda... Tab saying that that's, uh... me..."
Sanoske examined the baby digimon, scratching his own chin. ^Hm... Yes, I see. Celeste's current body is not too different from a Conomon... which is the youngest stage of a Lopmon.
So I am guessing it is not a stretch to assume that in the future I shall be traveling with a digimon similar to a Lopmon or Terriermon?^
"Yes, and she'll *burrrp* be the best shade of Pink once she gets there.
I was on a time limit so she'll have a color similar to mine. You know, you're pretty good at this Rip... *bellch* I did it again..."

Crystal, Mel, Celeste, and Pure listened intently as Rippah translated for Tab. Crystal and Celeste themselves nodding along occasionally. It seemed all pretty simple, if not slightly awkward.
"So she's going to be a pink flavor of us." Crystal took a closer look at Celeste, "Well I guess the two horns she has does kind of fit. It's just weird to think that we'll have another digimon looking similar to one of us.
"What exactly are we suppose to call your species now anyways?" The lopmon couldn't help, but wonder. "I'm assuming there's no other digimon like you. At least there are none that I know of. So we'll probably have to figure out a good name for your species in case anyone gets curious."
"I'm not sure. Probably another thing for me to figure out unless Tab had already came up with a name. I mean he did create the body after all."
The two of them then turned towards Tab with curious looks on their faces. Wondering if the mute digimon had indeed came up with names for Celeste's new line. Probably not now that Crystal thinks about it, but there's still a chance.

Tab shrugged. He never bothered coming up with a name. Rippah sighed and scratched his head.
"Well, I guess it's up to you guys *burp* to name her..."
Suddenly, Lezard ran bac to them with Cuttah following close behind. Lezard looked quite giddy, although he was holding back some of his excitement.
"Let me name her. It's not every day you get to name a new species of digimon! I would love to have that honor."
^I think Celeste or Mel should do it.^[/color]
"See, Sanoske agrees!"
^Wat?^
"Hey, Lezard *hurrp*, ease up will you?"

Crystal watched the others as Lezard tried to volunteer for the naming rights. And he seemed pretty giddy about it too. Or could that be because of Cuttah? Who knew?
"Well... Lezard does have a point. Naming a new species of digimon isn't an opportunity that comes around often. Hmm..." The lopmon stated as her mind began to wonder what good names would fit Celeste's possible line.
"Ahem" Mel coughed into his hand loudly in order to draw attention from the others, "I think you all are missing the obvious solution to this. This is Celeste's new forms, I think it should be her job to pick names out for them. She's going to be the one stuck with them after all."
"I hate to admit it, but I guess you have a point as well." Crystal agreed with some not so hidden contempt in her voice. Hating the fact that Mel was right about something. She shifted her gaze over to the pink blob known as Celeste to see what she thought about this.
"Hmm... I'm going to need some time to think about this." Was all she told the others as she seemed to be giving this matter some serious thought.

Lezard gave a defeated sigh, briefly looking away. "I concede to your reasoning, Mel. Oh well. I guess I'll have to be content with just this...
But I'll be nearby if you require any help, Celeste."
Cuttah yanked his arm, pulling the WIzardmon away once more. "You should be more concerned about making up names for me."
"We're on nicknames now?"
As the two continue on their journey on discovering the various aspects and foibles of being in a relationship, Sanoske gently rubbed a claw on Crystal's ear to ease her slightly.
^It seems like it has been a long while since I could have said this... but at this point, all we have is time. Or at the very least there is no intrinsic deadline we must meet. ^[/color]

Crystal gave a fully content sigh as she felt her ear being scratched. A small smile returning to her worried face.
"I like to think so too." She responded to Sanoske as her chin connected with the top of his head. Enjoying this moment they now had together. It also brought her joy to see Cuttah and Lezard getting along so well. The fact that they were already coming up with nicknames for each other were so cute. Yet that did bring up an important subject for her.
"I should really figure out a good nickname for you Sanoske one of these days. All the one's I can think of aren't all that good." Crystal takes a moment to try to think of some, but frowns as she fails to do so. "Why is this so hard to figure out?"

The Gazimon continued to cuddle with his girlmon, smiling. ^I think just throw out what you have and see what sticks.
Just do not tell me if 'Superchunk' is one of them. That would be quite strange for me.^
Rippah began to walk off, sighing a bit and reminded of his own girl. However, he simply also wanted to give the lovebirds some space. Tab followed suit.
Meanwhile...
"Can... can I have some time to think up a name? I mean, this is all so sudden, Cuttah."
"Hmm... Elly calls brother 'Rippy'. Would Cutty do? No... no... that sounds stupid."
Lezard was sitting with Cuttah, her grip on his arm as she hugged it being quite tight. He briefly thought back to past times where he saw Cuttah do the same thing to Rippah.
His thoughts were interrupted by a particularly nasty bit of gas coming from Cuttah. In embarrassment, she looked down to the ground.
"Sorry... I was hoping I could... hold that one in..."
Lezard just gave a chuckle as he rubbed her head. He was certainly going to make this relationship work, no matter what.

Crystal couldn't help, but chuckle a little at what Sanoske said. "Aww... But 'Superchunk' seems like a perfect fit for you." She teased, not being serious at all.
She then looked back over at the scene between Cuttah and Lezard. "They do look awefully cute together. Perhaps we should give them some privacy." The Lopmon then suggested to her boyfriend. A keen eye would notice her breathing from her mouth more then her nose right. Speaking of which...
"Hey Lezard." She would then call out, not wanting to walk out without saying something, "You better treat Cuttah right. Your a super lucky guy, and you should know it."
Meanwhile...
Celeste was lost in her own thoughts for a good few moments there until she caught a whiff of something foul. "Dear god. What is that?" She asked a bit louder then she should have. Upon recognition on what she had just said though, she quickly thought of a cover. "I meant to say. Why do you need a nickname. I think Cutie fits you to a 'T'." A beaming smile then forming across her relatively small face.
That was when Mel picked her up, "Come on Celeste. Let's give the two lovebirds here some alone time." He remarked as he began walking away with a couple of tissues stuffed in his nose.

Sanoske growled in agreement towards Crystal's suggestion to leave Lezard and Cuttah alone. An odd couple, sure, but cute. At the very least, though, Sanoske was the least effected by Cuttah's gas. Whereas Crystal altered her breathing, Sanoske stopped altogether.
"I'm gonna *borrap* take Tab back to Lily's. You two behave out here, heh heh."
Once the others left, Cuttah let out a sigh, a bit embarrassed.
"Are you sure this is okay? I mean... I do want to be close to you but..."
"No, no, no, that's fine. It's just how you are. Rippah burps and you fart. I'm already used to you two so don't worry about it.
And you look so cute when you look relieved."
(((So what next?)))
