Not giving up eh? was all Agito can think of. Seriously, normally you won't think shit hitting the fan to that extent, and even then, it's ridiculous to think that someone like this young man here would let his father away from his sight in world of monsters. Even an eleven years old would have protected his father if he have that power to. Agito decided to play his accordion again, perhaps a bit reflexively.
"...Ay, wrong use of honorific, young man. Always default to -san if you don't know what to address someone, especially one that's older than you," Agito corrected Bezil "but yes, I'm your Agito-ojisan, heh. Ah about the joining... Waka?"
"It's not really a test that is important. If you want to join you simply have to do interview, or if another KIZNA member can vouch for you, you can enter easily. A test is only to promote you from a cadet to normal member. However, as I'm pretty much new, I can't really vouch for any of you, or conduct an interview. You should probably ask your old man... errr... Bezil was it? Yeah, ask Hikaru for the details. I believe he can tell you more about it. I thought you already joined, honestly."
"So he said. Well, Waka just recently re-partnered with me, long story that I'd rather not say....Anyway, this is my partner Aisaka Koutarou-sama."
"Drop the -sama, please, I beg you."
"Or so he said. I called him Tono."
An extended wing? Sadly that's not his style, being a former samurai and all. Instead he just bowed his head politely. "Pleasure to meet you. Either way, to answer your question, let's call Neo-DATS as a reinstated police force in human world that wishes to return all Digimon to here, Digital World. I heard they're more professional now, but in the past they used such method that would give Digimons no privacy. Brainwashing was one of their method in the past."
Explaining the subject in detail seems to be just a headache that he'd rather not delve. Koutarou decided to just massage his head and try to tune this information out, as it was told to him already yesterday.
"Whitewater is what you would call the Miami of Digital World, I guess. Prominent place for party goers, with lot of bars, hotels, and other tourism attraction. It's probably a city that never sleep and always full with festive mood. Humans are well received mainly because well... it's tourism city. Not to mention, humans spends a lot of money there, also brings their friends, so in short, it's one of city booming because good relations with humans. It might be surprising, but Whitewater have more tolerance toward human than Terminus.
Rosewood... it's newly built town. I haven't heard the details, but basically it's idyllic place for child stages to get used to their new lives as they graduated from the Village of Beginning. It's a safe place because there are less people and Digimon alike who are interested in fight there. You probably won't find much there, but it's a good place for a more relaxing vacation if you want to go there. It's not bustling like Terminus, or loud like Whitewater. It's just right."

"Hmm... I disagree with that viewpoint." Bezil answered Hawkeye. "Danger can exist anytime, anywhere. It's not worth it if you're constantly afraid of what could happen, especially to the point that you don't even want to make social connections with others."
With that philosophy dealt with, Bezil still thought it was fine if Kenny wanted to bring his dad to the digital world. "I'm sure he'd love it here. Terminus City is a fantastic place to be." Some parts of it were probably not good, but he trusted Kenny's judgement in figuring out where it was unwise to tread.
Bezil blushed a little as he realized he used the wrong honorific. "Ah, sorry... ojisan, is that right?" the Gumdramon tilted his head a little in confusion. "I'm familiar with 'san', but, what's different about 'ojisan'?" he did rather want to get this kind of thing correct.
According to Waka, their best option was to ask Hikaru about it, given that he was Bezil's father. He understood that fair enough, he knew Hikaru was a good and fair digimon and would properly test him before accepting him as a fully fledged member of the group.
Bezil only gave an awkward giggle at the semantics of honorifics, he was only a beginner to that sort of thing after all. He was more interested about the talk of Neo-DATS. Apparently they were something of a police force in the human world that dealt with digimon. That made Bezil feel a little nervous. "Well... guess I'll be staying in the digital world in case that comes to be a problem." he stated.
Bezil was about to ask what a Miami was, but Koutarou explained what he meant regardless. He pretty accurately described what Whitewater and Rosewood were like. "Yup, that's pretty much the case with those places." he stated in agreement.

Likable, huh? That wasn't usually on the list of words that one could use to describe Miko. So, surprised as she was, the bronze-colored fox managed a smile towards Ramona. Clearly, this was indicative of a growing friendship, the most esoteric thing for a Renamon who grew up in the woods. Well, at least it was esoteric for Miko. "Well, I can take care of myself, I'll tell you that much...But turning down help is what fools do. I'm not that much of one."
As they strode on towards the honestly slightly shabby store, Miko tapped her chin in pondering over the question Ramona posed. "Uh...Something about as tall as I am right now. Nothing that attracts too much attention. Oh! And wearing red and white." What a very vague set of specifications! Did she even notice the Kabuterimon holding her hand? Yeah, kind of, but she really didn't mind, either.

Hawkeye blinked at Kenny's response to his question. Clearly the full meaning wasn't getting through to him. He was trying to ask about the different countries of the human world, but of course the word 'country' wasn't ringing up at all in his mind. "I do not believe my question's meaning is getting through that well. I mean the... er, what's the word... continents? Like Australia? Are there more like that?"
The archer Hawkmon blinked when the other Hawkmon denied his wingshake, instead bowing towards Hawkeye. Not wanting to appear unnecessarily rude, showing that he did indeed have some integrity, Hawkeye bowed towards Agito in a similar manner. "I see you are a 'mon of music. I sadly cannot play any instruments myself. I was told to have a nice voice, however."
Agito explained Neo-DATS to Hawkeye, saying that it was their goal to bring all Digimon back to the Digital World. He mentioned that one of their methods in the past was brainwashing. Hawkeye's eyes widened. "That is sick... I can't tolerate those who would control the minds of others like that. Are they being combated at all?"
Bezil spoke to Hawkeye again about his viewpoint on friends and danger, explaining that he disagreed and that it was not worth it to be constantly afraid of what could happen. Hawkeye sighed. "Clearly you don't know what it has been like in my life. I have corrupted data. If I am deleted, I cannot reform." Hawkeye was silent for a moment, as if reflecting on what he had just said. There was definitely a story to be told, but... it was as if the Hawkmon was forcing himself to stay quiet. He turned toward Kenny again. "I have no authority to stop you. But I do ask you be careful if you do choose to bring another human here."
Hawkeye kept quiet and calmly ate his food as the others talked about things like Whitewater, Rosewood and Neo-DATS. Hawkeye had indeed been to Rosewood before as it was close to his village and it was where he would get his supplies from. Whitewater, however, he had never been. Not worth the journey, in his opinion, as his village was nice and secure. It would be nice to visit, however.
He looked over at Kenny... but for a split second, he almost looked like Kaya. He blinked, revealing that Kenny did not look like Kaya at all. He rubbed his temple for a second. "I think I may be going mad..." he muttered quietly.

The friendly smile that Miko gave her seemed to set something internally off in Ramona. Surely, it had to be something she ate earlier... at least, she swore it was. But she really did warm up to this Renamon for what was supposed to be a basic escort mission. She smiled at Miko's comment, "I never thought you were for a single minute." She told her. As they got closer to the store, Miko would give a description on what she wanted in her holosuit. It did sound pretty vague, yes, but Ramona was sure to reassure her, "Good choice. I'm not much of a fashionista myself, but that's quite the effective colour combination." And just a moment later, they would enter the shop together, as a bell jingled from the door, and both of them would bear witness to a series of several gadgets and gear, including the all-important holosuits. The sound of the bell ringing was music to the shopkeeper Setmon's ears, as he looked up from his magazine. "Ah, a couple of new customers. Welcome." He chirped, as he put the magazine down and levitated towards them, his gestures welcoming and friendly, "The name's Archimedes, but you can call me Archie, and you are?""Hey. Name's Ramona, and that sweet Renamon over there's Miko." She said, as she gestured towards herself and the bronze Renamon, "We're here to help her pick up a holosuit today. She wants to go to the human world safely, and she's looking for a nice red and white one, something that won't grab too much attention there. I'm sure you have something that'll fit her needs."
"Certainly, ma'am." Archie laughed, before approaching the Renamon to shake her paw, "Don't you worry, sweetie, I have plenty to suit your needs. Come with me." He turned the other way, gesturing to the other two to follow him over to the counter. Once there, he would pull out another magazine, one showing a whole list of holosuits that would match the vague description, and would hand it to Miko, "There you go. Do tell me if you see anything you like."
Having nearly finished their meal, Kenny and Skadi would listen in as the boy told Bezil about how he could join KIZNA. Skadi had been showing interest, and internally, she hoped someday she would cross paths with another KIZNA member, in the hopes she would join. Meanwhile, Agito, after introducing his own tamer, Koutarou, told Hawkeye about who Neo-DATS was, and the methods they would use to do. Skadi's ears twitched slightly on hearing that, but she preferred to keep mum on that regard. Same with Hawkeye's condition. It raised plenty of questions, but it would be rude to stick their noses in it. After that, Koutarou would then elaborate on Whitewater and Rosewood. And to be honest, Whitewater sounded a lot more appealing than Rosewood, all things considered. Kenny was more of a beach person. After Koutarou finished up, Kenny smiled, "To be perfectly honest, I think I'd really prefer to take my dad to Whitewater. My dad loved taking me out to Bondi beach when I was a kid, so I bet it wouldn't hurt to do that. Thanks, man!" He smiled. Already his mind was jostling down plans to take his dad there ASAP. "Whitewater's quite a nice place to go," Skadi added, "I was actually there quite a bit in my past life. I'd highly recommended it."As they finished off, Kenny took a quick glance at Hawkeye, looking at him before rubbing his eyes. That was a little concerning, "Hawkeye. Are you OK?" He asked him. After getting his answer, he sighed contently, "That was good. What else do you wanna do now, Bezil? I'm happy to do some window shopping." He said, while Skadi nodded. It would be a good idea to go pick up some useful stuff while they were there. Likewise, Skadi would turn to Koutarou and Agito, "Hey Koutarou and Agito! You guys wanna join us?" She chirped. These two seemed like really nice fellas, so it wouldn't hurt to go along with them, all things considered.

"I'm sorry to interject, but I feel you're putting thoughts on 'security of rebirthing' too much. There's no guarantee that if I die I would be the same Digimon next time in life. There's no guarantee that I'm even the same person I was in the past, so in a sense should that means I can't understand your fear? Wrong. I can understand it, and that's exactly why I'll say my next piece." Agito told Hawkeye as he plays his accordion.
"It might be the end of the road for me if I died and if it is, then that is fine. I feel we Digimons thought of our lives cheaply thanks to rebirth process... but what those who has yet died often misunderstood is the fact that the risk always exist. Bez-bou is right. A wise man said 'Live like you would die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever'. Life is precious, but should you fear death? It's normal to do so, and I definitely appreciate people who are careful... but if it gets to point where you're too afraid of facing tomorrow and possibilities just because of extreme fear of death, then it's a waste... A turtle who stays inside his shell all the time would not know the wonders of the world. In my opinion if I were to die tomorrow I'd live my life to the fullest, and make everyday a happy moment I can be proud of."
That aside... "Of course there would be opposition, but last time I heard they caused an event so huge that they eventually self destructed. The new one apparently had no relations with the old one, but I still think that the naming sense is bad,"
on to Bezil's question "Oji-san, o here is to be polite, it's a honor prefix, same like 'otousan', 'okaasan', ji in here refers to 'uncle', the -san is the honorific. If you're close with me, ojichan is acceptable, heh. Ojisama is a bit too polite for my taste, thus I prefer oji-san."
Koutarou closed his book. "We actually have a place to go after this, but it won't be for a while. If you don't mind, we'll probably leave midway to do that... and browsing around sounds nice. We'll join you."

What Hawkeye said honestly stunned Bezil. For a moment the Gumdramon didn't really know what to say, but eventually he began to be able to use words again. "Seriously...?" he asked, looking a little scared. "That's... oh gosh, that's horrible. I'm sorry to hear that, and I think I understand where you're coming from now."
If he was a digimon in Hawkeye's position, he'd certainly think much harder on his own mortality than normal. And with this, Bezil was willing to drop the subject, understanding it was probably very hard to talk about, especially with strangers.
But he felt that Agito had a point too, that maybe it didn't matter if they were reconfigured or not? That maybe since digimon usually thought they would be reconfigured and never truly died, that often made them reduce the value of their own lives. Bezil looked down to the side for a moment, ashamed that he had thought such thoughts in the past, that maybe one day he would be given the choice to sacrifice himself for heroism or preserve himself for the sake of those that loved him. That was an early lesson from Owen, that he was never to trade away his life so easily.
Bezil closed his eyes for a moment as he remembered that lesson - one of the few times that he had remembered Owen being angry with him, where Bezil had just stated that protecting friends was no big deal, even if he did lose over it, he'd still come back.
Because of that, Owen had taught Bezil very closely to value his own life in whatever his incarnation was. That it would be a cold day in hell before Owen would let his own son get away with the mentality that saw thousands of his own comrades in the DWR behave suicidally in the final days of their army being intact. Bezil had thankfully learned those lessons.
He was brought back to the moment with Agito saying his preferred title was "oji-san", and thus the Gumdramon nodded, making note to call him that from now on.
Looking back to Kenny, the young human said he'd like to do some window shopping now that they were nicely fed. Bezil was pleased to indulge him in this. "Alrighty, let's do that then!" he said, standing up. Koutarou and Agito seemed to want to follow them as well. "Okay, first up... let's check out the digivice upgrade store."
Bezil would lead them to the store that would deliver all sorts of upgrades to human digivices. He didn't know how they worked, but knew they were highly reputable. They even gave digivice-like gadgets to solo digimon if they had the funds. This was where Bezil got his own D-MR from.
"Feel free to take a look, but best think carefully on things you might actually wanna buy." Bezil advised. "Some add-ons are more useful than others, but it really depends on the situation."

Miko gave a long, quizzical stare towards Ramona, the fox tilting her head. "Really? ...Huh, guess there's some things I'm good at after all." The fox made the conclusion just as they walked in to be greeted with...a Setmon. One of a particular kind of Digimon that Miko had noted become more widespread within the Digital World in recent years, akin to a sudden cambrian explosion.
Really, it was nice to have more varieties of people to encounter. She waved and had been about to introduce herself to Archimedes Archie when Ramona opted to do it for her. The fox followed Archie towards the counter with Ramona and looked down at the magazine, trying to make sense of it. "W-What are the differences here...?" She blinked.
This was strange. Really strange.

When the subject of Kenny's father came up again, he suggested that he would take him to Whitewater City. Hawkeye had indeed heard of that place, but he had never been there himself. "Whitewater City... isn't that the city that's essentially one giant beach? Forgive my incorrect generalization, I have not seen much of the Digital World myself, if I am to be honest."
Hawkeye had explained to everyone about his corrupted data. Bezil looked dumbfounded by it. He asked if Hawkeye was being serious, which the Hawkmon simply nodded. The Gumdramon said he was sorry to hear that, to which Hawkeye raised a wing towards him. "No need to be. The corruption doesn't just cause... well, that. It also gives me abilities that no other Hawkmon has. I can charge objects with powerful effects, such as ice or electricity. I was able to teach myself how to fight like no one else because of it." Hawkeye grinned a little. "In some ways, it's more or less a blessing disguised as a curse, no? However, it did give me a greater sense of morality, not just for myself, but for others. Especially humans."
When Hawkeye finished speaking, Agito told him that rebirthing has no guarantee that you'll end up the same Digimon as you did before. He made a speech about how life is precious and that you shouldn't fear death, so you should go an experience the wonders of life. Hawkeye simply rolled his eyes. "I'm perfectly content with staying in my village and keeping the Digimon there safe from harm. Like just recently, with these thieves that attempted to steal our crops."
However, Hawkeye just couldn't shake this feeling. It was as if he was... missing that girl Kaya. He tried to push away those thoughts but they just kept coming back to him. Eventually he did look like he was struggling with something, enough for Kenny to ask if something was wrong. "W-What? No, no, nothing is wrong at all," Hawkeye lied. He wasn't one to shove his own personal problems onto other people. Especially not Kaya.
Ugh, why couldn't he just forget about her?!
Hawkeye managed to get his fill of his food mountain, but he clearly didn't even eat half of it. Money well spent, apparently. The group was discussing going window shopping around the mall. Checking his money, Hawkeye apparently had a lot more than he thought he originally did. He did need to go get some supplies, after all. "I shall join you, if you are willing to have me accompany, that is."

"Ah, so I guess this is your first time picking up a holosuit." Archie chuckled with interest at Miko's apparent confusion, "But good question. Let me show you a few examples." He went over to his shelf and picked out a few random discs, before returning to the two girls, as he placed the discs on the table. Each of the selected discs were stored in a special grey box, with a picture of a person the user would 'transform' into upon usage, and a small red button.
"Just my way of telling which is which." The Setmon added, grabbing one of the discs, the picture of a smooth-looking young man with gelled black hair, "Functionally, each holosuit works the exact same way, you switch it on, and you transform into the human on the cover. Observe." With a sly look, he pressed the button, and in a mere instance, he transformed into the man on the cover, but he looked a lot taller than before. Granted, he did stand at the same size as both Ramona and Miko, but the difference was quite noticeable. But now he was also clad in a black businessman suit, with a silk red tie, and a nice clean whit shirt underneath. He glanced at both Ramona and Miko, the former smirking with a little interest, before continuing on with his ramble.
"With this, nobody will be able to tell if you're a Digimon. You'll fit in perfectly with the crowd, no more having to hide away and miss out on all the sights and sounds of Shibuya. You'll be the envy of all your friends and family!" He threw out his arms in a hammy gesture like if he was a host on a prime time gameshow, before putting his hands out on the table. "A holosuit comes in many shapes and sizes, and I don't just mean the outfit," He said as he grabbed a nearby tablet, and switched it on, showing Ramona and Miko a list of accessories, "You can choose from a variety of storage devices, including earclips, belts, watches, and so much more. Personally, the jewel case is one of my favourites. I should know, they're my most popular model!"
"But, you do have to keep in mind that while you can switch off the holosuit willingly at any time, if you any attack at all, like this..." Archie raised a pointed fingergun up to the sky and pretended to shoot the roof with a quick and harmless electric zap. Almost immediately, the holosuit projection broke, reverting him back to his original Setmon form, as he slumped back on the table, "You'll return back to normal. No worries, holosuits can be used at any level you want, when you want. Ordinary humans can't tell the difference. Unfortunately, a device can hold up to one holosuit at any time, but there's no limit to what how much holosuits you can buy."
He let out a sly chuckle once again, before turning to Miko, "Of course, if any of these designs don't suit you, you can create a custom one, free of charge. All you need to do is buy a blank holosuit, and we can fill in the rest. So, what will it be?"
Humans in the Digital World suffered an immediate risk; that if they died, they couldn't merely reincarnate. They were only good for worm food. But listening to Agito's advice did resonate something with Kenny inside. Skadi did listen intently, but Kenny did feel something resonate inside him. A lot of his life he spent basically sheltered from the world, but the arrival of Digimon in his life was giving him a chance to expand, and live life fully. And while he understood Hawkeye's situation, the arrow wielder would merely just shrug it off.
Welp, his loss.
So it seemed Koutaro and Agito would follow them along. Kenny gave a kind smile at them, "Great. If anything, it'll help us kill time at the very least. Maybe we could learn a little bit more about... just the Digital World in general." He shrugged. There was a lot more he needed to know about the world.
As they got up to follow Bezil to the digivice upgrade store, along with the others, Kenny pulled out his own D-3 from his pocket. For all intents and purposes, it basically was good enough to do it's job: scan other Digimon to gain basic info, store Skadi and let her digivolve into her next form, currently at the time just Weatherdramon. But the idea of getting his Digivice some extra upgrades did sound good to him. Skadi certainly had some funds in her pocket to keep herself in the green.
Having arrived there, Kenny looked at the add-ons scattered around the store. There were some very useful stuff, no doubt about it, but some looked extremely pricey, like the D-MR add on. Quickly, he turned to Skadi, "Hey Skadi, how much funds do you have on you right now?" He asked.
She would once again pull out a few bits to hand to Kenny, "We do have enough to pick up the Improved Scanner for now. It's very useful, able to help you learn about other Digimon abilities and attacks. I think that would be good for us in the long run." She replied.
Weill, that seemed like a good idea; knowing what a Digimon could and couldn't do could really help out in the long run, and helped to predict their attacks. "Yeah, that sounds good. Thanks Skadi." He smiled as he took the bits from Skadi and went over to the counter, placing them and the D-3 on there, and ringing a bell, "Hey, I'd like to pick up the Improved Scanner upgrade, please."

Agito... honestly wasn't impressed with that eye roll. He suddenly inched closer, and stopped playing the accordion, eyes affixed at the Hawkmon in front of him.
"Lad, stay thine eyes. If thou art displeased, then voiceth it thou should like a proper mon of manners. "I politely disagree" thou could have sayeth. Cross I shalt not feel, for I taketh such politeness gladly... yet thou decideth to roll thine eyes instead? Manners make the mon. Hath the wet nurses in village of beginning taught thee naught of manners? Had thou truly forgot, and shed such importance as unneeded? If so then kindly revisit thine teacher."
Koutarou looked amused for a second, but doesn't let it shows too much on his face. Looks like Agito is angry after all.
"Protip, if he started to speak archaically, that might be a sign that he's pissed. I think you should remember that, just in case."
Upgrade store huh...
"Come to think of it, this is a nice learning experience, What sort of equipments you think would help you in the long run? If you ask me, I'll say that it's the light screen. The baton is only useful if you're athletically inclined, but the light screen? It's great for anytime. I suggest to buy it just as precaution. However, it's very expensive, so keep that in mind," Koutarou suggested.

Bezil supposed that Hawkeye's condition was probably a mixed blessing and curse. Incredible powers, yes, but at the expense of never waking again in the Village of Beginnings if he were to perish like other digimon. That was something he'd think on for a while after this. Bezil himself had powers that other Gumdramon did not have - such as the ability to use ice attacks, and be protected from the cold by his fur. But he was fairly certain that he would not suffer final death. Kenny asked if there was anything wrong, and Hawkeye acted like there certainly was something. Bezil made a guess as to what it was. "Maybe death isn't a good subject to talk about right now, yeah?" he suggested generally, hoping this subject would come to a close. He also noted that Agito seemed to be kind of annoyed with Hawkeye's conduct, but the Gumdramon would keep out of that argument as long as it stayed at its current level. Hawkeye would go with them, so that was fine for now. They would soon arrive at the digivice store. Skadi quickly recommended the Improved Scanner function. "Ah yeah! That's a great thing if you haven't met many digimon." Bezil said, nodding with approval. "I've met and sparred with many digimon myself growing up in Rosewood so I'm mostly good without one, but if you think you need it, go for it."As the bell was rung, a Hackmon appeared at the counter, seemingly out of nowhere. He turned his red eye to Kenny as he made the purchase of an Improved Scanner. "Very well, the transaction will commence." the Hackmon stated. With that, a virtual sort of counter would materialize above him, displaying the words "Improved Scanner" on one side, and Kenny's account balance on the other. The account balance decreased by 2,000 bits, but the words "Improved Scanner" then transferred sides afterward. "The hardware and software will be automatically installed on your digivice within the next few minutes." he stated, in a polite yet blank voice. Koutarou suggested other gadgets too, like the Light Screen. Bezil looked for its gadget in the shop and read its description out loud. "A screen of light that protrudes from the Digivice, allowing humans a minor degree of protection. It can weather up to three Rookie attacks or one Champion attack before collapsing. It can collapse with a 3-minute recharge time two times in a battle. On the third recharge, it breaks. Not for Digimon usage." he recited. "Ooh, yeah! If you think you can afford this, definitely keep a lookout. We digimon can evolve to defend ourselves, but you humans can't, so this would be great for an emergency." he said to Kenny.

It was preeeetty obvious that Miko had never been here before, but, as with any endeavor the young Renamon took, she was eager to learn, even if it may have been tedious in nature. Which, thankfully, this was not. Then again, it was pretty hard for this to be considered tedious when it didn't involve work of the miko kind.
The gist of it was that it was a disguise that'd hide her being a Digimon. Which, when one considered going to the real world, was by far the most valuable tool one could ever procure. With that being said, Miko understood most of, if not all of Archie's explanation, nodding her head some.
"...I do have an idea for what I want mine to be. Could you by chance make a talisman into one? It'd...help give off the illusion that I'm a shrine maiden, I think. I-If you can, of course!"

Hawkeye definitely did not mean to upset or anger Agito at all, however his social skills were incredibly lacking. He didn't think his eye roll would even do that much, thus he was very confused when Agito began to move closer to the archer while speaking in old ages language while he played his accordion. It wasn't until Hawkeye listened to what Agito had to say that he realized that Agito was pissed off. He didn't even need Koutarou's help to understand that.
"Apologies, Agito," Hawkeye said as he bowed towards the other Hawkmon, "I did not intend to upset you in any way. I have my strengths, but sadly socialization is not one of them. I do disagree with your views, but I do not want that to be the reason that we are enemies."
Agito may definitely annoy Hawkeye a tiny bit, but he was still charming in his own right. Besides, Hawkeye did not want to make any enemies due to his lack of communication prowess.
Hawkeye would then proceed to follow the group over to the upgrades store. Hawkeye did have a D-Terminal (mainly because he took it from a Digimon who had recently been deleted), so he could indeed get the upgrades that the store would offer. Upon walking in, Hawkeye took note of the Hackmon who was running the store. He had a weirdly sinister vibe coming from him...
The Hawkmon browsed the various items on display. Analog Jammers, Infini-Stores, Improved Scanners... a holosuit? What the heck was this? Hawkeye checked the description of the item.
"So this... holosuit will let any Digimon look like, say, a human? I'm curious..." Hawkeye bought the holosuit, as he had plenty of bits, and with an ability like becoming a human, it would prove rather useful. Pressing a couple buttons on his D-Terminal, the former Hawkmon morphed into something instantly recognizable: a human, specifically one with white hair and a pony tail.
"O-Oh my..." Hawkeye gasped as he stared as his newfound hand. "This is very bizarre..."

One of Archie's eyes raised in interest as Miko mentioned about making her holosuit into a talisman. Certainly, that wasn't exactly a common request, but that wasn't impossible either. "Ah, good choice, madame." The Setmon replied with a jovial tone in his voice, "It's not every day I get a request like that, but I'm sure we can work with that, give me a minute, I'll be back as soon as possible." He turned and left to quickly craft them the holosuit device, leaving Ramona and Miko all by themselves.
While they were waiting, Ramona tapped her foot for a bit, as she mused to herself, "I wonder how Kenny and Skadi are doing right now? Certainly, those two did sound like they were doing just fine without me. I still can't get that stinkeye that blasted Hawkmon gave me earlier though. All I was just trying to do earlier was help Miko here."
True to his word, Archie did come back within a minute, and in his hands dangled the aforementioned talisman made for Miko. Noticably, a small charm rest in the middle, which one could easily ded. "And I'm back, girls! Did you miss me?" He chuckled to himself, as he flaunted his handiwork in front of them. "Your holosuit is all ready to go. All I need you to do now is for you, fine lady, to try it out, and see if you like it." He held out the small innocuous device in front of Miko, "Of course, if you don't like this holosuit, I can always switch it out for something more for your needs, free of charge. There's a mirror right over there, if you wanna check." He added, pointing at the mirror.
Ramona turned back to Miko with a smile, and lightly pat her on the back, "Go on."
Like Bezil, neither Kenny nor Skadi really wanted to butt heads with anyone right about now, and luckily for them, even after Agito called out Hawkeye for the latter's rude behaviour, at least the aforementioned latter didn't decide to escalate further, at the very least. Which was a huge, relief, all things considered. Last thing these 2 wanted to deal with was any amount of drama, especially considering what happened with Arkadimon.
As Kenny and Skadi watched as his D-3 went through the upgrades, Koutarou had suggested the two get the Light Screen upgrade if they could, and Bezil continued to elaborate on what it could do for them. A thoughtful smile emerged upon Kenny's face, taking that into consideration, "Yeah, that would be a good idea, all things considered. Just let me check the price quickly." A quick glance upon that, however, and he did look a little shocked upon looking at that. 5000 bits.
Ouch.
He gave a quick glance over to his partner, "Um, Skadi? Do we have enough to afford that as well?" Cue his partner awkwardly shuffling on the floor a little bit and twiddling her floor a little awkwardly. That didn't sound good. She stayed a little silent for a moment before finally she replied to him.
"...Sorry Kenny. I don't think we have enough to afford that yet." She mentioned sadly, "I think we need to get a few more bits first." Her mood shifted more to a confident stance, as she put her arms akimbo, "But don't you worry, Kenny! Rest assured, I shall protect you no matter what!" She was quite a little shaken, especially since the Arkadimon incident, but she had to reassure her promise to her tamer.
A smile came back onto Kenny's face, as he leaned down to his partner's level, "Yeah, that's the spirit, girl!" He exclaimed, before ruffling his partner's hair, making the sheep yelp and giggle in surprise. A moment later, Skadi threw her arms around Kenny. He looked a little embarrassed and surprised at first, but he grinned and returned the hug to his partner.
As he got back up to recollect his Digivice, he and Skadi witnessed Hawkeye mess with his brand new holosuit, as he suddenly turned into a human, exclaiming in surprise. The fact that he brought it without checking what was there first did raise some eyebrows from Skadi.
"Y'know, Hawkeye, maybe you should've asked about what holosuits are available first before going for an impulse buy." Skadi pointed out to the bewildered bird.
