-----
Today is a great day. According to Demi, Desmond's Digimon partner, it is his birthday. But unfortunately, he did not tell Desmond in time. His tamer had his right leg in a cast due to a bad knee accident and had to go see the doctor so he wasn't able to get him to have fun in the city. And that made the fireball very sad. After talking for a bit, Desmond took his cellphone and phoned someone that he could trust with Demi. It was Talia. It has been a while since they both meet. He knew that she had two Digimon partners and that she wouldn't freak out seeing Demi so he really hoped that she would go and take Demi for his birthday. The Frenchman called Talia on her cellphone and waited for her to answer. "Hey, Talia. It's Desmond." He began speaking and Demi immediately jumped off the couch and hug Desmond. "Talia!" He shouted out loud. "It's me! Demi!" It was easy to see that he was very happy. "Yeah, can I ask you a favor? It's Demi's birthday and..."
"It's my birthday!" He was very loud. "Yeah, can you keep an eye on him? I need to go see the doctor today. Yeah, I'll give him some money so that you two can go eat something." Desmond looked at the fireball who had a giant smile on his face. "Talia!" He shouted once more. "He will be in his holosuit. And most likely dressed fancy-ish so maybe do the same to make him happy? I mean, no need for a dress and all that but yeah." After speaking a bit more, the blond tamer nodded before saying goodbye. "Thanks, Talia." And right before he hung out, Demi shouted once more. "See you!"Desmond would spend the next half an hour dressing Demi, now in human form, with a fancy bowtie. He gave him a shirt and a small vest and a pair of dark blue jeans. He then gave him some money, enough to buy a dinner for two and more. He told him to give it to Talia because he did not trust him with money. "So, you know what to say if people ask you for your name?" The Digimon nodded. "I'm Demi Edmund!" That made Desmond nod and smile. "Good. Now you don't go running around without Talia, okay?" Demi nodded once more. "And you will listen to what she tells you." Another nod from his partner. "I'll give Talia my spare key to the shop so that you can come back whenever you want." He then placed a newsboys' hat on him and hugged him. "Ok, now you go have fun, okay?"
After that, Desmond and Demi went down and waited for Talia to come. Desmond wanted to meet her before leaving her with Demi. The two patiently stood in front of the shop for just a little while before seeing a girl with two pet coming toward them. It would take them both a few seconds before recognizing the twin Digimon in their holosuit. "Talia?" Desmond slowly said her name still unsure. Demi on the other hand quickly went for a hug. "Talia!" He shouted. She did smell like Talia. "You changed quite a lot?" It has been a while since they last saw each other so he didn't overthink it. "Demi, give her to key and money." He said softly and Demi went digging into his pockets and give both the key and the money to her. "Thanks, Talia. You can come back whenever. I can't go very far due to my knee so you all have fun." And he then waved them goodbye and call a cab. He would wait in front of the shop while Demi hugged him one more time before going to hold Talia's hand. "And listen to her!" The Frenchman would shout to make sure that his partner will remember that as they went away from him. "Happy birthday, Demi." He then said very softly.

Talia had never really been somebody who was great with kids but the precious and pure little fireball known as Demimeramon was definitely an exception to that part of her. Technically he wasn’t a kid, not a human one anyway, but with his personality and wild curiosity he might as well have been one. “Don’t you dare - keep your money,” Talia warned the man over the phone, a teasing sharpness able to be detected in her voice. The small digimon was like a little nephew she was eager to spoil, and it was the least she could do for Desmond after he’d been one of her first friends made in this city, in this country. “I can do that! Anytime.”
Passing out and waking up in a new body was a lot of things, and as cheesy and generic as it was, one of them was the lesson that life was short. “See ya soon!” Placing the leash around Tohru’s neck, the disguised rabbit groaned. “I have no issues with sharing the appearance of a dog but how come I have to wear this if I’m not really one?” Talia petted the corgi on the head behind the ears. “All dogs have to wear leashes because most run away if they don’t so it would look odd otherwise, and you’re too big to sit on my shoulder.” Unless she wanted her holosuit changed to be a hamster or mouse, but that was grounds for being chased by a cat if done. “Simba should be the one on a leash after he chased those ducks!” “Ugh, it was one time sis.” Besides after being chased by that monster sized gander he’d decided that was the last time he’d ever try that. “Birds just taste so much better when they’re cooked and on a plate, less work too!” Fortunately the dragon was a bit too clumsy to hunt anyway.
Turning the corner to the street where Desmond’s shop was after getting off the train, Talia could see a small boy with the tall man which she guessed was the holosuited Demimeramon. “Ohayōgozaimasu!” She waved as they approached, saying the japanese term for good morning. Her kanji wasn’t quite perfect yet, but she liked to think it had significantly improved as opposed to when she’d first arrived in the city. “Desmond.” She was so thrilled to see the two she nearly forgotten about the one major life change that was apparent as she went to hug the blonde. “Demimeramon!” Said hug was quickly intercepted by the small boy and so in a quick fix the girl hugged the both of them at the same time. “I missed you two, how has everything been? And yeah, heh, it’s a bit of a long story...maybe another day I’ll explain, but todays your special day right?” The girl was glad to take the key but refused the cash upfront. “Nope, I got this, you give that back! And you rest today okay Des?” Once they said goodbye and were settled in the cab, the girl gave the boy an affectionate pat on the head. “So, birthday boy, where to? The sky’s the limit.” Not gonna lie, she was secretly hoping he’d pick the arcade.

Demi went to pet Tohru before getting into the cab. "Fluffy!" He exclaimed with joy. As they got into the cab, the fireball in disguise waved at his tamer all the way until he couldn't see him anymore. He would then sit still and smile at the girl next to him. When Talia asked him where to go, Demi quickly shouted. "The Ferris wheel!" He always wanted to go there but Desmond never took him to see it. All he could see was how big it was when his tamer drove by it and the little Digimon loves heights so he really, really wanted to go see it in person. Surely it will be even more impressive when he would stand next to it. He also heard that there was all kind of food there and now that he was in his human form, he could eat a lot of things without melting them. "Can we go there?" He then asked with puppy eyes looking at Talia. Happy than Talia agreed, the four of them would wait until they reach their destination. As soon as they got there, Demi began jumping up and down around Talia. "Look! Look!" He would shout while pointing to the Ferris wheel. "It's huge!" He looked around them and there were a few food stands and whatnot on their way there, Demi would stop in front of every one of them to look at what they are selling. While he was excited to see all the food people were eating while walking, it was the giant wheel that he kept looking at. "Can we go there?" He asked Talia once more with excitement. "Please, please, please, please!"Demi was very happy that Talia didn't mind paying for the entry. As soon as they got in, the Digimon was staring at the horizon as the Ferris wheel began moving. He had an expression of wonder as his eyes got bigger like his smile. After about three minutes, the fireball in disguise would then sit down and tilt his head from side to side. "This fun!" It was very easy to see that he was very happy being there with Talia and her partners. "Thank you, Talia!" And he stood up and hopped the small distance to hug the girl. It was a very good birthday so far. After the hug, Demi would go poking Tohru and then Simba with a smile on his face. "How come you two are no dressed like humans?" He then asked with curiosity. "You can wear all kind of clothing!" As he said that, Demi held his bowtie with both hands. "Look! You can wear that!" He paused for a moment to make sure that they saw his little bowtie. He then pointed to his fake glasses. "And look like Desmond!" In fact, it was Desmond's old glasses that he removed the lends for the little child Digimon. "And you can eat all kind of food!" That was maybe his favorite thing of having this holosuit."And you can run and jump!" He didn't realize that those two Digimon could do all that in their Digimon form. "Oh! Oh! Do you know what we should get? Ice cream!" --- [1215/1000] |

“Of course kiddo, it’s your day.” Talia never understood why some people were so afraid of Ferris Wheels - personally she found them to be intimate, relaxing, somewhat romantic and always liked to enjoy the view at the top, what was so nerve wracking about that? People are always in a rush..they should take their time more to appreciate life, there’s nothing wrong with the idea that sometimes stopping to smell the roses is just okay. Unless you were allergic to flowers, in which case you could stop to smell fresh bread? Or that weird satisfying frying smell diners always have? She smiled as she watched Demimeramon checking out all the sights around him, finding it to be an absolutely adorable site as the twins watched on. “Aw look at you two being all protective.” Tohru yawned a bit. “Eh, I’m just keeping an eye cause he doesn’t know any better and if something happened I’d probably never hear the end of it.” Plus weren’t dogs supposed to play the role of ever loyal protector, and she was disguised as a dog was she not? The rabbit wasn’t sure how to feel about the idea of an animal that was so unconditional it was to the point of being a prideless pushover. I’m a companion creature and while I care for Talia very much, I’m not one to roll over at the drop of a hat for cookies, and I think she knows that. At first she’d always wondered otherwise, if the young girl who loved cute and cuddly things would take the leporid’s independent and reserved demeanor as a message that the adoring bond of partnering was not mutual even thought it was quite the opposite. It seemed however that the woman didn’t see it that way - that or maybe she just a lack of regard for personal space, as guessed by the fact the girl constantly squeezed the bunny like a doll. “Lead the way!” The girl and animals followed the exuberant child towards the ride, sitting down inside and as the ride operator closed the gate, the twins holosuits disappeared with the knowledge (and satisfaction) that their identities were protected by the thick grate surrounding the car. “Heh, Happy birthday Demi.” She smiled as the boy hugged her, giving him a quiet pat on the head while watching overhead with adoration at the caped rabbit and dragon standing on the seats, peering through the grate out at the view with what she was sure was amazement.
“While humans interest me, there’s no desire in my to ever be one, so therefore wearing their clothes doesn’t interest me either.” Besides, was she not already wearing a cape? She spoke very matter of factly, having never been a smooth talker with children in general. “Yay ice cream!” Simba said thrilled, doing a bit of a happy dance with the human who was just a little smaller than him. As if these two needed more sugar, but ah well that was what birthdays were for right? “Oh god, its like I got another brother,” Tohru thought to herself watching the two play a bit, going back to enjoying the view until she felt a tug. “Tohru, can you win me a prize from one of those games, you’re so good at the ones we play home!” Did she say she wasn’t a pushover?

Demi spent the whole ride either hugging the two Digimon and Talia or looking out and loving on how high they were. He had this big smile on his face, it was clear that he was enjoying his day so far. He just couldn't stand still and would run to each side of the small cart while pointing at anything. "Look! Look! They are tiny!" He said while tapping on the window. It would only take him a few seconds to see what he wanted to see. People with ice cream. His big blue eyes got even bigger and his smile did so as well. "Talia! I see ice cream!" He shouted in joy. Now he just couldn't wait to get down and hopefully, get his hands on one of those delicious treats. After a few more minutes, the ride was over and the operator opened the door for them to get out. Demi jumped out and went to hug the operator who was very confused because no one ever gave him a hug at work. He did laugh a bit though and pat the child on the head.
After the hug, Demi began running around Talia with arms extended mimicking a plane. "Whee! That was so fun!" While there were other kids around, the fireball in disguise was surely one of the more excited ones. But he didn't run away from the girl, Desmond told him to stay with her and he did not want to make his tamer mad at him. Not that he ever saw Desmond being mad at him. "Can we go get ice cream?" He then asked Talia as he stopped running and began jumping in front of her. "Please, please, please!" He already knew that she was going to say yes but he was trying to be a good kid and ask for permission before running around. That was one of the reasons Desmond gave the money to Talia and no let it to Demi, he knew that the Digimon would spend it all in one place.
When Talia gave him permission to get some ice cream, Demi went for another hug. He was so happy, it was the best birthday ever. As they all went to the small stand, Demi looked at all the flavors. He took a peek at all of them and just couldn't decide on which one he wanted. He would raise his hand in the air and was about to point at the one he wanted but would stop halfway and then raise his hand again. The worker was used to seeing that so he found it very funny. "You can pick two of them." He said with a smile. "Oooooh!" It would take him a few more seconds before pointing at two of them with both hands. "These two!" The man scooped two balls and put it on a cone before giving it to the little kid.
Demi would have hugged the guy if he wasn't behind a stand. "Thank you!" He shouted before going back to Talia. "Look! Look!" He began licking the ice cream and really love the two flavors. He was now running around the girl while eating the i8ce cream when suddenly, someone bumped the Digimon. The big man squished the ice cream between him and Demi and it ended being crushed on their clothing. Demi looked down on his shirt and then up with tears in his eyes. "Hey! Watch where you are going, kid!" The rude man said before wiping the ice cream that was on his shirt and then just walked away. The birthday boy stood still for a second and then looked at Talia before crying. "Taliaaaaaa." He would shout while crying. "I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!" Poor kid was thinking that it was all his fault.

“How about YOU watch it asshole, instead of knocking down kids?” At first Talia panicked slightly when the child began to cry, unsure of what to do, she was never one to be gifted with small children but something in the small boys glassy eyes seem to make her instinctively jump into a soothing protective mode. “Awww don’t cry pal, come here. Of course you didn’t. Don’t worry, I’m here okay? I won’t let anything happen to you, I promise.” Talia bent down and removed a wet nap from her bag to clean most of the ice cream residue on his shirt, picking him up in her arms afterwards. “I got you, shhhh.” She gently shushed him to cease his wailing, stroking his hair. ‘Huh, this mom thing isn’t as bad I thought it would be. Kind of intense though for sure.’ Then again she was particularly fond of the adorable boy, it was hard to say if she felt the same about other kids. “Now how about we get you a ice cream okay? Guys - wait where did the twins go?”
The dynamic duo hadn’t wasted a minute following the rude man with every intent of getting revenge. “I think he went that way!” Simba padded after his sister who seemed to be leading the operation but he knew he would get sucked into being Tohrus muscle for this, and frankly he didn’t mind if meant they were getting payback for the little precious digimons tears. “So what are we gonna do exactly?” Hopefully it didn’t involve death - was his sister capable of that? Possibly, but she was also smart enough to know that they couldn’t disturb the balance of the human world like that even if they wanted to. “You’ll seeeeee.” Upon, finding the man, she whispered her plan to her brother, the disguised dragon nodding as he listened.
First, the fox went up and pulled on the mans pantleg to turn his attention away so Tohru could get ready for the “attack”, and when she was ready she barked so the man turned back around, getting splattered with ice cream via a backkick from corgi Tohru.
“Where’d you two go? Staying out of trouble I hope?” Talia asked once the twins returned, their expressions looking a bit too satisfied for her comfort. “Eh, just to check out the sights for when we come back another day!”

Demi was still crying when Talia bent down to wipe the rest of the ice cream that was on his shirt. He was surprised that she picked him up but he hugged her as his feet left the ground. He tried to not cry anymore but it was harder than he thought. He really felt bad but hearing Talia's soothing voice was making him feel much, much better. He sniffled a bit and went to rest his head on the lady that was holding him. He did his best to stop crying by wiping his tears on her shoulder and closing his eyes. It would take a few more seconds before he stopped sobbing and take deep breaths. It was the first time someone held him like that and it was very recomforting. "Sorry, Talia." He whispered like he did something wrong.
When she told him that they could get more ice cream, Demi opened his eyes. "Can we?" He said a bit loudly. Without hearing her answer, the little kid hugged her tightly and smiled. "Can we?" He asked once more but not as loud. He would patiently wait for her to say yes. "Yay! Thank you, Talia!" That was all it took for his mood to go from terrible to good. By now, there was a small crowd around them that saw the scene. Some of them was whispering for a few seconds and then most of them just went back to doing whatever they were doing. The man standing behind the ice cream stand also saw what just happened and had his arms crossed. He would wait for Talia and Demi to come at him and then refuse if she were going to pay. He simply made him a new cone for free. "Here buddy." He said with a smile. "Some people really need to be kicked out of here."
Demi clapped his hands together a few times before taking the ice cream and take a big lick. "Thank you! Thank you!" And with that, his birthday was now back to being a great day. "Look! Look!" He turned around to face Talia once more. This time, he made sure that there was no one near them before spinning on himself. After two spins, the Digimon in disguise would stop and go closer to the nice lady with a wide smile. "Can we go back to the wheel?" He asked joyfully. To be honest, he just wanted to go someplace high. What he didn't know was that Simba could fly in one of his forms.
As he said that, he then took a bite of the ice cream. Maybe too big because he now felt how cold it really is. In his DemiMeramon form, he wouldn't be able to taste cold from hot, everything was warm to him. That was what he liked about his holosuit. Being able to taste and run and jump and everything. The child took another quick bite and then pointed at the large Ferris Wheel. "Please, please, please?"

“Of course we can! Afterward, I have a little surprise for you too.” She’d felt kind of bad about the ice cream thing and on top of that, had had no idea (or time really to look into) what kind of birthday present you gave to a digimon who was basically a sentient fireball with the mentality of a four year old, but now seeing how much he loved the ferris wheel, she’d gotten an idea of what the perfect gift would be and at one point while the little fellow was off playing one of those squirt the target carnival games with Tohru she told the idea to Simba, who happily agreed. Just then, the two of them came back, with the corgi carrying a small stuffed pig wearing a polka dot bandana. “I won this for you, brother!” The grey furred fox gasped, thrilled at the sight of the adorable thing while touched by the gesture. “T-thanks Tohru!” He carried the pig around for the rest of the night in his mouth like a dog with a tennis ball. Seeing that the boy was getting a bit tired, Talia figured this would be a good time to give him his “present”.
Transporting them all to the digital world with her digi-port, the girl kept the boy busy while Simba got into place. “Now keep your eyes closed till I tell you to.” She held up her digivice, transforming the dragon before telling the little boy to open his eyes. “Tada! Here’s your gift.” Before them stood a very tall medium furred red and white dragon with black wings in all his pride. “Simba’s gonna take you flying, hold on tight okay?” She helped the kid get settled, waving with Tohru as the two of them took off into the sky. After his ride, the kid was practically ready to fall asleep, so they went back to the human world and dropped him off home before the trip headed home themselves, satisfied after a long fun filled day.
