((Woooo, MPC thread with Royland! Doing a Wildcard for this - Hatching Season, to be exact)) 437/1000Today was a pretty normal day, for Ophelia - at least as far as Digital World antics went. The weather was nice - the sun shining at just a little bit after noon, as it hung above her in the sky. There was a slight breeze that rustled the tall grass as she made her way thru the Mainframe Hills in the Eastern Timberlands, and Ophelia has lately been in a positive mood after having won a friendly fight against another digimon that she had run across earlier in the morning. Even now, she was humming to herself a little tune she picked up from listening to a traveling bard a couple months back - even if most of the words to the song escaped her, the tune was still fresh in her memory - as she carried a Digiegg in her arms. Ah, right - scratch the normal part. Today was actually a bit strange. The egg was a little bit on the small size, a pretty baby-blue that somewhat closely matched the color of the sky, polka-dotted with tan. Though what was actually in the egg was anybody's guess - Ophelia wasn't actually sure who the parents were! She just found this egg peeking out of a mess of roots at the foot of a tree - no signs of a nest or den anywhere nearby, and any scents on the egg had long-since gone too stale for her to identify. As far as she could tell, the parents either had long-since disappeared, lost this egg, or completely abandoned it. Being the good-natured digimon that she was, she couldn't just leave a defenseless little Digiegg unattended, and so she was making her way towards the Village of Beginnings, to drop it off with digimon who were more capable of taking care whatever little bundle of joy was inside. Sure, maybe she could watch over the egg - a small part of her maternal instincts left her kind of endeared to the idea of raising the egg herself! But, she was still young and inexperienced - she had no clue how to raise a child! And her usual trekking around and picking fights didn't exactly translate well into the role of a mother, either. It didn't help that these instincts were at odds with her sense of perfectionism - if she was going to be a mother, she wanted to do it right! Which, as of right now, she felt wasn't possible for her... And so, she would continue to trek on towards the Village of Beginnings - already nearing the distant woods the village rested in - the egg being carried in her arms all the while.

Well today was a fun day for our boy Roy, the Spadamon had a fun day yesterday as he, Kazuya and one of his pupils Julian finished a mission and hunted a bounty, fighting a digimon that strong was so awesome for the knight. But today, today Roy was supposed to drop Julian off at Rosewood to Jijimon's school and today, he was told by Jijimon to go meet a friend of his in the village of the beginnings. The spadamon agreed, he owed Jijimon a lot so doing something for him is a thing Roy will do on a whim.
The lion then trucked his way up to the village, the Spadamon swung his arms and puffed his chest, the digimon walk cycle was over dramatic as he was too proud of himself, the man was whistling to the tune of one of his favourite songs. At the village Royland went to Jijimon's friend and the two of them talked for a while, and Roy ended up relaying the message to the other Digimon. And then Royland was ready to leave the village in order to go back to Kazuya, but out of the corner of his eyes the Spadamon saw a familiar face, his favourite niece Ophelia, the lion rushed towards her with a smile on his face.
"Oh hello there Ophelia, its been a long while. How have you been young lady, are you ok ? Did you eat your food ? Do you need to study ? Wait what are you carrying." The Spadamon was shocked to see her carrying an egg, he was too worried about what that could mean, she was too young for her to be a meme.

Ophelia would perk up as she, similarly caught wind of Royland's presence - noting the distant whistling and faint scent in the air. She would only perk further upon actually seeing him; her tail was perked and swishing, and she couldn't help a small purr in her throat - she was always happy to see family, even if she was still sort of getting to know Roy! But to know someone who was - or, well, technically still is - her father's brother was still amazing to her - a small world after all!
"Hey, Roy!" She'd chirp happily in response to her greeting. "I've been doing well; been eating alright n' everything, and I've been practicing lots - I even beat another rookie in a friendly little duel!" She would puff her chest out with pride at this - before remembering the egg in her arms, straightening up to hold the egg more properly. "Iiii'm not sure if I need to study - I don't exactly go to school after all - but I think I'm solid on that too, and..." She'd trail off with Roy's question regarding what she was carrying - seeming to take a second to decide where to start with explaining this.
Once she found her words though, she would peer down to the little blue Digiegg in her arms, her tail twitching a little. "It's a Digiegg- I found it out towards the Mainframe Hills; under a tree!" She began, "I think it got lost or abandoned or something; cause I couldn't find any nest or den, nor a mama or papa; any smells on it were too stale for me to figure out." She'd carefully hold the egg up so that Roy could get a better look at it, stating "I was gonna take it to the Village of Beginnings, so that someone there could take care of the egg where it'd be nice and safe - it'd be sad if the little fella in there hatched all alone!"
Once Roy got a good look, she'd go back to carefully cradling the egg in her arms - for such a boisterous little liongirl, she was treating the egg like the precious bundle of joy that it was - being noticably careful of how she held it to make sure she wouldn't accidentally drop it. "I wonder what sort of digimon's in this egg, though..." Ophelia would muse out loud, both to herself and to Roy, before glancing to him and asking "Do you have any ideas of what kind of digimon might be in here? What kind of digimon like to hang around here usually?" She was still a little new to the Timberlands, so it was worth asking, she presumed.
However though... Almost as soon as she had asked that question - a soft 'crck' would be audible from the egg; drawing Ophelia's attention with a soft, surprised "Mrrp?" Was the egg hatching already??

Royland was happy that Ophelia was apparently doing great, she was eating well and also apparently was a proud fighter she even won a recent duel, that made Roy feel proud. But then she mentions that she does not need to study but he saw that as absolute nonsense the lion valued education a lot, well at least after spending time with his human partner who is incredibly smart and more often than not made Roy look dumb, so he now seeks to outsmart Kazuya....so it was a pride thing instead of being actually about the importance of education but whatever.
"Thats all good, you are still a growing digimon so you need a ton of food to become a very strong digimon like I know you would be. And that's amazing, did you defeat him using the Spadamon's signature combat style ? Cause its invicible as I can show you on a later date, but I am proud of your accomplishments." Royland said and to be honest Royland was a bit awkward about his relationship with Ophelia, not only is she family but he is her uncle so Roy had to be a supportive role model shouldn't he ? So he is gonna try and be the best uncle he can be or at least try.
"Oh come one thats not the right attitude to have young lady, combat prowess is important in this world but you gotta be smart and education is important. Other wise you will be stuck in a room where people talk about the constellations and you will be sitting there and you will have nothing to say for a long while. . . Not like that happened to me or anything like that hehe." Royland said with a sheepish smile on his face, as it totally happened to him, with Kazuya and a couple of his female friends.
Ophelia then explained to Royland what that egg was, more important to him is what its not and that was that the egg is not hers. The lion man was worried that Ophelia went and got herself a mate rather quickly but that was not the case, so no need to prepare the mon to mon talk that he had in his head and focus on helping his niece out with this egg situation. Royland examined the egg when it was showcased to him, he couldn't recognize what kind of egg that was but then again he was not the type of digimon to hang around eggs a lot.
"Hmm really couldn't tell ya Ophelia, but people here capable of taking care of it so that was a good idea for you to bring it over here for it to be taken care of. I really comm- wat ? Oh god its hatching what should we do ??" Aaaand Roy immediately panicked, uncle of the year everyone.

"Signature combat style?" Ophelia took a second to think over what Roy might be talking about, before gesturing to her sword at her hip - her signature Blue Blade - with her tail, asking "Swordfighting, yeah?" for clarification. It's certainly what she took to naturally; sure, she could always use her fists, claws, n fangs in a pinch - but it felt good to have a sword in her hands! Felt good to swing it around, the impact and weight behind each swing and slice, and the such! Roy's praise though, seemed to make her pause for a second. She... was actually unused to getting praise, at least from another family member.
Sure, her father would be encouraging at her growth, but she was usually more used to trying to get praise out of her mother, since she was the one who taught her to sword-fight... Though it was difficult to perform any higher than 'well enough' to her mother.... But hearing another family member who was also a sword fighter praise her, she couldn't help but grin maybe a little giddily, her tail swishing excitedly at the pride of the accomplishment. She did good! Yeah!
Though, being chided for her lack of studying would make Ophelia deflate a little, as she pouted a bit. She wasn't exactly book smart, and was only maybe a little street smart - she was more... Practical smart? Survival smart? She wasn't sure what would work best to describe the kind of smarts she had. Not to mention, well... "Well... I dunno where I'd even study. Mama and Papa taught me everything I needed to know to survive on my own," Ophelia would remark, shifting the egg in her arms so that she could scratch the back of her head a bit. "And I don't really wanna be cooped up in a building all day doing nothing - I wanna feel the sun and wind in my fur! I wanna go around and see new places! Fight new people!"
However, as for the egg... Indeed, she was maybe a little young to worry about things like finding a mate, and she certainly didn't feel ready to raise a family! But, she also was too kind-hearted to just leave the egg behind - and knew from having hung around here for a little while that the Village of Beginnings would be a good place to leave the egg in more capable hands! Or paws. Or wings - or anything really.
Regardless though, as the egg began to hatch and Roy began to freak out, Ophelia would pick up a little on that unease - her ears twitching back as she watched the egg in her arms begin to hatch! Crk, crck, crack - bit by bit cracks would spiderweb over the top of the egg, until finally, it cracked right off! Bits of eggshell pieces would fall to the grassy ground beneath and slowly dissolve into data, as Ophelia was no longer left with an egg in her arms...
... but a little Chicomon! A small little slime digimon with a round baby blue body, and a little horn-like appendage atop its 'head' - with big round eyes and a small cute smile to match! It'd slowly blink its eyes open and shake off any stray bits of shell that clung to its body, and yawned widely - before it finally took notice of Ophelia, and Roy. Ophelia - even as unsure as she was - couldn't help but find the little guy to be utterly adorable, but even she wasn't sure what to expect, when the little baby digimon would glance up to her...
... and proceed to proclaim "Mama!"
"... Wait what-"

SWORD FIGHTING !? Just sword fighting, what has Callus taught Ophelia ? The art of fighting Roy uses is no mere sword fighting its almost a way of life, the lion uses his entire body as weapon, nay his entire being is a weapon of a war. Royland was a bit sad and disappointed at his favourite niece in the world, but its not all lost, Royland can still save her by scheduling a practice session with her one of those days. But not today since today is all about the egg Ophelia brought with her today. "Well its not a simple sword fighting, my style is much more special and uniqe than that, but I will have to teach you about how amazing it is on a later date."
Royland said looking forward for a day where he could take Ophelia and teach her some of his secrets and maybe see her develop some of her own, that will be such an amazing day. But now Royland wanted to tackle Ophelia's argument which is harder than he thought it will initially be, since the lion man could easily sympathize with what she said. "I understand that but still, studying will do you some good and should not take too much of your time especially if you are going to visit the human. Which by the way if you ever visit, you should totally come crash with me and Kazuya." Royland said, the lion liked the idea of having Ophelia over but he seemed to have forgotten something....
The egg hatched!! Royland was too anxious to see what will come out of it, and soon that question was answered and from the egg Ophelia had a Chicomon inside it. This adorable little fella continued to be more adorable by calling Ophelia mama, Royland held his hands together. "Awwwwwwww, this little guy thinks you are his mom. Will you look at that our little Ophelia is all grown, now we can't just leave him here can we ? We gotta take care of this adorable little fellow."

Ophelia was... Maybe a little skeptical, if the initial frown and quirk of her lips implied anything - just how special could a certain style could be..? Don't tell her that it was just gonna be all artsy-fartsy pretentious stuff! Though, still... She trusted in her uncle all the same, and the opportunity to spar and practice with Roy was something she looked forward to! And so, after a few moments of pondering it over, she'd nod and smile, chirping "Well... Okay! I'd love to spar n' train with you sometime - I dunno what the hell this 'special and unique' style'd be all about, but I can't say no to practicing with Uncy-Roy!"
Ophelia only pouted further at the insistence of needing to study, though. "Where would I even start this studying stuff?" She'd ask, frowning a bit. "All the schools I've seen so far are for local fresh and in-training 'mons; I'd be so out of place in one of those schools, even if I entered as a Wanyamon!" Not to mention, she actually... Wasn't sure if she was interested in visiting wherever the humans come from, actually. Sure, humans were new and interesting to her, but she couldn't exactly spar against one too hard; and she also wanted to first learn about the world she actually, y'know, called home! Maybe once she had a comfortable understanding of everything in the Digital World, she'd consider visiting the humans... But right now? Not all that interesting for her.
All the same though, as she was proclaimed to be a mom by the little Chicomon in her arms, Ophelia'd actually tense a little - this only becoming more apparent when Roy implied that they should actually raise the little digimon themselves. "I-I'm... Not sure if I could do that..." She'd murmur out - actually looking a hair distressed at the idea; tail stiff, ears tilted back. She couldn't be a mom, she didn't even know the first thing about raising a child! She'd probably end up messing up on the first step, even, a small part of her mind considered.
The Chicomon in her arms though, seemed to still be taking in their surroundings - gazing around curiously until Roy's voice drew their attention! They'd tilt their head - or body more like - one way, then the other, before proclaiming "Papa!" at him, too! The little fella would proceed to jump out of Ophelia's arms, much to her surprise - and would approach Roy to nuzzle against his leg; making a soft, happy trilling noise all the while. Okay; Ophelia had to admit that was cute... Though the idea of being a mom still made her extremely anxious, despite this.

Royland was happy that Ophelia seemed a bit skeptical about his fighting style, that way when the time comes, Roy will be able to shock her with his strength and techniques. For how much Roy loves to brag a lot about his own power, the young knight had the strength and the feats to back all of his claims and more, so to say he is excited to show off to his niece will be an understatement, but sadly that will have to be on another day. "Alright, we will do that on a later date, I will tell my human partner to clear off his schedule in order to set a training day." Royland said with a jolly wide smile on his face, the lion sure liked the idea of passing his techniques passed to him by dukemon to Ophelia and hopefully have her become stronger.
Ophelia then made more good arguments against Roy's insistence on her studying, maybe she is older than most normal students, heck Roy does not seem to remember that Ophelia is almost his age in this life time. He'd then let out an embarrassed chuckle, Royland was all new to this whole uncle business so he does not know what he should be doing sometimes. "Ah right, maybe you don't need to study anymore Ophelia, as long you can protect yourself, you will be fine here in the digital world." Royland said as he crossed his arms, the spadamon was a bit confused, but Roy is starting to adjust to his new role as an uncle.
But then Ophelia seemed to be a bit worried about raising a little kid, it was understandable since Ophelia was a little kid. But Royland did feel a bit bad letting the parents of this little cute fellow be left up to chance, since he really wanted to be there for this little fella who called Ophelia mom. "Oh come on, we can't just leave him here, we gotta find him a home. " Royland said and as soon as he said that the tiny digimon called Roy papa, which made Roy chuckle at the little creature and attempt to gently take him off Ophelia's hands and lift him up.
"You are a cute litte mon aren't ya ? Well we are gonna find you a pla-" Royland then felt stupid cause he remembered something important, probably the answer to his whole problem and is also very trust worthy and is for the best. "Wait a minute, I know a guy. A jijimon who was my teacher, he has an orphanage and school in rosewood. We should take this guy there, don't you think ?" Royland said, it was the obvious choice it was a surprise that he did not think of it from the beginning.

The idea of getting to actually meet Royland's partner, and to get to train with Roy himself, would make Ophelia grin eagerly, nodding. Alright! Even if she was not entirely confident in what Roy's style would be, she was still more than eager for a chance to spar and train, and meeting Roy's partner would be nice too! "Sounds good," She'd chirp, nodding in response to Roy's mention of scheduling a training day, her tail swishing eagerly. Though, she was also curious... "What's your partner like, anyhow? I think I've heard you mention him before, but I don't think I've ever met him!" She wondered if he was anything like Ryouta - even if humans were as squishy as his partner - Valt - claimed them to be, he was still strong and fun to spar against, like when they had first met!
As far as studying went though, Ophelia would smile a little in relief as Roy relented - though this would turn to pride as he mentioned that she would be fine as long as she could protect herself. Being the proud little lioness she was, she'd grin widely and give Roy a thumbs up, proclaiming "Yeah! I'm a tough as fuck gal, noone and nothing's gonna scare me!" She'd face a Champion on solo if she had to! 'Course, from a logical standpoint, this sort of notion wasn't very smart, per se, but then again Ophelia wasn't the most clever; a lot of that bright brainpower of hers going into combat as opposed to a healthy sense of self preservation.
Nonetheless, the Chicomon would eagerly nestle themself into Roy's arms, trilling and purring happily. Ophelia would nod a little, being quick to clarify "I wouldn't leave em on their own- that ain't right! I just..." Though she initially seemed maybe a bit offended at the implications of abandoning the baby, she'd deflate a little as she scratched the back of her head and mumbled "I just... d-dunno if I'd be ready to be a mom... I feel like I'd screw something up." It was that perfectionist side to her, really, that made going into other venues of life like this difficult. She felt like if she couldn't pick it up quickly enough, or get it right on the first go otherwise, then why bother?
All the same though, she'd perk a little as Royland would go 'wait a minute' - wondering what he had in mind. In hearing of someone who could raise the little Chicomon - a Jijimon - Ophelia would perk further, her ears pricking. "Oh, yeah!" She'd smile brightly. "If you trust him, I think that'd work for me!" She trusted in following Roy's lead for this - it'd give the little fella a far better setting to grow up in than with a kid who barely knew how to be a mom, she thought. The Chicomon seemed curious about this - peering up at Roy and tilting their head. "Jii jii?" It was hard to say whether they recognized Jijimon as a name, or just the repetitive sounds.

It was at that moment that something dawned on young Roy, Ophelia never actually met Kazuya Oda because the first time he met Ophelia was the day both he and Dio abandoned I mean left their tamers behind in Whitewater and headed to the training grounds on their own. The Spadamon really wanted the two to meet since Roy really likes Kazuya and also really likes Ophelia so if the two of them meet it will be very great, right ? Right ? "Well hmm how do I begin to describe Kazuya, he is a very stoic cool kinda guy. I don't to mean he is not a nice guy, he is nice, he just does not show it very often. Oh and he is also plenty resourceful and has interesting stories, I will tell you more but I rather you talk to him yourself, his story telling ability is rather incredible. I reckon Kazuya can make picking up milk from a store sound interesting, not even exaggerating." Royland was actually pretty serious, but he may have been overhyping Kazuya Oda a little too much.
Well that man aside, Royland chuckled to himself as Ophelia displayed a level of confidence only someone who is related to him can possess. Pleased by her Roy puffed his chest to look all prideful and more importantly, to look cool. "But of course you are Ophelia the brave niece of Royland the brave, the words fear and defeat are not part of our vocabulary." Royland said sounding all confident and awesome, at least in his own head.
Royland then laughed at the idea of Ophelia being a mom, he could not even humor it yet, how could he? Because to him Ophelia is his little niece. "No! No one said for you to be a mom, you are still a bit too young for that young lady. More like be his big sis of sorts, or something. This guy seems to like you at least. So hang out with him often if you can." Royland said, Ophelia was the first person this little guy saw so he wanted her to show herself often to him. But after that it seemed like it was unanimous that Jijimon should take care of this guy it was the smart decision.
"Alright, let us go! His place is in rosewood so its a bit of a walk, but it should be fun right ?" Royland said as he headed out of the village, his stride and posture oozed confidence.

Ophelia was visibly interested, as Roy went on to describe and talk about just what kind of person Kazuya was. Her ears were perked, tailtip twitching, visibly attentive - even if Royland might've been overhyping Kazuya a little, she was definitely eating it up. "He sounds like he's pretty smart!" She'd chirp in response, smiling widely - before adding in question "Does he know how to fight? I hear humans are kinda squishy - but the first one I met was pretty good with a sword!" She couldn't help but hum softly to herself as she thought of Ryouta, Valt, and KIZNA in general; the thought of joining a group had occured to her, and she'd certainly like to join a group that has people she likes or otherwise fits her wants... Huhm...
Though, before she could get too sidetracked in her thoughts, Royland would begin to boast about the both of them - and Ophelia couldn't help but join in on it all; puffing her chest out as well and grinning toothily. "Hell yeah! Just watch me- I'll make my whole family tree proud in no time!" She would claim with fervor, eager to become the tough-as-nails lion digimon that she couldn't help but percieve in her head. "Let this world throw whatever it wants at me!" Oh Ophelia, if only you knew half the shit people in this world dealt with.
All that aside though, Roy's reassurance over not needing to be a mom would seem to indeed help Ophelia relax - tension draining from her demeanor. Being a big sis still felt like a bit of a responsibility, but... it definitely was more managable to her. Kitt was pretty much a lil bro she never knew, and she acted like a big sister figure to Cassandra and Laertes before she set off to see the world on her own, so, it seemed less imposing of a task to her. Slowly, she'd nod, murmuring a soft "Alright," before smiling gently - going over to scritch the little Chicomon on the head with a soft purr - the Chicomon responding with a content trill of their own. "I... think I could try that. I'd definitely wanna check on the lil guy to make sure he's doing okay..."
With the two of them in agreement though, Ophelia would smile to Royland and respond with a "Yeah!" as she filed in beside him - following him towards Rosewood.

Roy was caught off guard by Ophelia’s question about whether Kazuya can fight or not, it took him a second to remember if the man can fight or not. Then he remembered Kazuya telling him a lil bit about his past that had some fights, he then turned to his niece.
“actually I am pretty sure he can fight better than your average human, being involved with some thugs and fighting bullies from a young age, Kazuya has been in his fair share of brawls so if you do not use your absolute full power I can guarantee that he will be a very satisfying sparing partner. I actually learned some neat little tricks from him so I bet fighting him might be a bit insightful for you, we just need to catch him in the right mood. “
The lion might be signing checks that Kazuya can not cash in, but eh who cares is not like the tall golden eyed man would mind doing Roy a simple favor like that right ? well anyways its not like Kazuya is currently here to ask him that favor yet, so why worry about it. What Roy was happy to see though was how Ophelia shared his raging sense of pride and was really happy seeing her imitate him, Roy did not know what to expect when he learned he was an uncle, but looking at Ophelia he could feel an overwhelming sense of joy and satisfaction.
“I am sure you will, and I will not fall behind my blade will be famous once more. I will make sure to set a great example for you. While also helping you get stronger, gah all this talk is making me get excited for some battle, we gotta spar soon Ophy.”
Roy said as his love for battle did not falter throughout the years, he was still the same kid that travelled alone ready to fight who ever crosses his path and do it while wearing a bright smile on his face. The lion then continued onwards on his way to Rosewood, it won’t take too long but there will be some walk so Roy decided to ask some questions meanwhile.
“oh hey Ophy, I never asked you, how is my little broth- I mean your father doing ? is he okay and do you know who your mom is ?” Roy asked a bit embarrassed his crazy enthusiastic tone was replaced with a shy and passive tone, as he struggled to look at the other Spadamon’s face choosing to stare at the baby.

Hearing that Kazuya wasn't unfamiliar with a good ol-fashioned brawl, Ophelia's eyes would light up noticeably - as she remarked "Hell yeah! I need someone that I can practice some fist fighting with anyways - I may as well get good with both my fists and my sword, right?" Ophelia grinned brightly with this - clearly excited at the idea of sparring with another human. Even if they were squishy, it seemed that they tended to know their way around a fight too, right? At least, that was the impression she was getting, given Kazuya and Ryouta both being the only humans she really knew.
And if she got better with her fists, then she wouldn't need to worry quite as much about those moments where she'd end up actually getting disarmed - be it by mistake or just as a part of basic fighting. Despite her best efforts, sometimes she'd end up forgoing the sword to just duke it out with another digimon with her fists and claws. Not that there was anything wrong with that necessarily - a lot of digimon fought like that! But she wasn't quite as skilled with it, and it showed on the battlefield.
At the notion of the two sparring sometime though, Ophelia would grin widely, excitement quite apparent. "Hell yes!" She'd exclaim, a skip to her step as she nodded. If it weren't for the fact that they were babysitting the little Chicomon, she probably would have been ready to throw down here and now! But, her protective instincts towards the smaller digimon helped temper that eagerness... At least for now. "I'll be ready to spar with both you and Kazuya, anytime!" She'd declare, her tail's swishing belying that boundless excitement that she had nonetheless.
With the questions of her father and mother though, Ophelia would pause for a second - thinking to herself - before chirping "Dad's been doing fine, as far as I'm aware - he's probably still looking after my siblings with Mom, back home. And yeah, I know my mom - she's a Blizzarmon, named Gertrude!" She'd smile a bit - adding "Mom's big n tough as hell, with these two axes she likes swinging around - I sorta wanna try axes out when I get big enough to swing one around, too!" Ophelia took the time to mime out swinging a pair of imaginary axes - to which the small Chicomon would giggle, watching Ophelia from their spot in Roy's arms. "Hell!" They'd exclaim, most likely parroting it from what they've heard Ophelia say...
... Which would actually bring up something that Ophelia never realized, growing up... Someone probably should tell Ophelia to watch her language around kids.

Post by Kazuya and Royland on Feb 21, 2019 7:42:31 GMT
Roy was happy to see that his niece was a smart digimon, just like he does not use only his blade but he also uses his own fists. so maybe sparring with kazuya will help Ophelia, the only issue is that maybe Kazuya may not be up to it, but eh those semantics will be dealt with later. "yep that's a very smart thinking, since I use my entire body to fight, so I can kick or punch as hard as anyone else so I will be able to fight no matter the situation. So yeah maintain that desire to grow and you will be a force to be reckon with in no time. " Royland said the lion knight had a silly genuine smile on his face, Truly enjoying his simple time with his niece and bonding with her. having family once again was a bizarre feeling but bizarre in a good way, something that the spadamon will enjoy from now on.
Roy could not help but chuckle at Ophelia's enthusiasm and excitement, for a second there she reminded him of himself and his friends past, but he could not have been as her could he be ? But whatever all he knew that he really wanted to be there for her and the idea that he will get a chance to not only be there for Ophelia but also be able to teach her himself is a blessing Roy does intend to take lightly, despite his many regrets the lion is glad he was reborn, so he can be with Kazuya and meet everyone he did including reuniting with his family in Ophelia. stopping to take a moment to think about all of this made the lion realize he was blessed with many things that he should not take lightly, life truly finds a way to work out.
Roy was then focused on learning more about the brother he did not want to meet anytime soon, but learning that he is doing great and is even with his lover unlike the situation with their father and mother who were separated during their birth, that was great to hear. and he even has more kids than just Ophelia. Man Callus seemed to have lived a great fulfilling life, surrounded by family and a loving wife. Roy thought back on how his own love life was not exactly great, finding that he is indeed devoid of true emotions towards all the women he needlessly flirted with, perhaps one day he will find his own axe wielding badass wife, or at least something like that.
"oh I see so you do know your mother, that is great and I am glad Callus is doing great for himself. and you said siblings ? you have other brothers and sisters ? how many and please tell me more about them, I want to know in order to be a good uncle."
it was only after that did Roy realize that not only has Ophelia been cursing but also that her cursing has infected the mind of the poor baby, The spadamon then frowned at Ophelia, dissatisfied with her behavior. "Hey young lady watch what you say, I mean you should not be saying it anyways but at least try to not say it in front of kids." is Roy doing the whole being an uncle thing alright ? only time will tell.

At the mention of her siblings, Ophelia would perk up visibly - seemingly proud and eager to talk about them. "I have two! A brother and a sister," She would state, smiling widely. "My brother is a Strabimon named Laertes - he's kind of quiet, and I think he's always sort of tried his best to be the big serious one, since he's the only boy of the three of us - but he can be rambunctious when it comes to it! He tends to get his head in the clouds sometimes, though.." She'd giggle a bit - thinking to when she and Laertes would spar, sometimes; her brother was always so caught up in making a mindgame out of fights, that he sometimes overthought things, in her opinion!
"Then Cassandra - or Casi, as we tend to call her... She's a Gomamon-X," Ophelia would giggle a bit, grinning over to Roy, "She's a ray of sunshine second only to the sun, I think; practically unstoppable with her energy. She isn't as big on fighting as me or Laertes are, but I think she's maybe stronger than me or Laertes, in the right situation, eheh..." She'd scratch the back of her head a bit, admitting "I think Casi doesn't really know her own strength, sometimes, with how often she knocks us over whenever we roughhouse or play, pfft."
Though, in talking of her siblings... Ophelia couldn't help but wonder how they were doing. Did either of them set off on their own, either to adventure or find their own place in the mountains? Or were they still hanging out with Mom and Dad, hunting thru the mountainside and spending the evenings cuddled up in the den? Damn... Now she was maybe a little homesick...
... at least, until the subject of her language came up. Ophelia would blink at Roy - seemingly surprised at his sudden change in mood. "... Watch what I say?" She'd ask, tilting her head a little... Which then came the biggest question, "What do you mean?"
She seemed to genuinely have no clue what she did wrong, looking maybe a bit confused and unsure at Roy's dissatisfaction.
