Well, it seemed like their potential mission outing was a flop. Syre gave a sigh, mulling over the bulletin board one more time before calling it a wash. Well, it was the height of the middle of the week. One couldn't really expect for there to be too many jobs - hm?
Wait. Wait, did Syre hear that right? Did Silence not know what a D-Terminal was?
On its own, that wasn't surprising. Rosewood was new, not all of the houses had been outfitted with electrical, and very few were savvy with all the tech. But it just donned on Syre how ridiculous this situation was, the cat unable to help putting her palm against her forehead.
This is my life now. I'm teaching the reincarnation of my mother what a phone is.
Well, whatever. Silence seemed chipper about it, and the black cat couldn't help but smile. "I'll help you out with that, make sure they don't upcharge you on a model you don't need. In the meantime..." The cat tilted her head. Well, she was done with the license... and she really didn't think it was a good idea to take her to the library yet.
... Yup. Syre was out of ideas.

Silence slowly blinked as syre put that hand to her forehead. She knew what that meant, or at least had a vague suspicion that the blackgatomon couldn't believe what she was hearing. She'd shift slightly and her eyes flicked to the job board as she was... well she felt a little silly not knowing what that was.
Sure she was chipper but the shutmon didn't know any better anyways! So of course she'd be chipper about it! The other was even willing to help her pick out a model that she wouldn't get upcharged on. The shutmon rubbed her chin and gave a small grin.
"Well that works out then, I get a D-terminal and you get my number."
Silence chuckled softly and shook her head, she had a feeling that this would probably go about as well as you could anticipate. She'd turn away from the board fully and gesture at the door.
"Shall we then?"
Honestly when it came down to it Silence probably was going to head to another one of those cities once she was done here. With Zephyr in tow of course. There was a moment and the shutmon ran a hand through her fur.
"Do the jobs vary depending on location? Like if I was to go to this... luminas, rustport or terminus would their jobs be different than the ones here?"

"Heh, I think we shall."
Managing a smile, Syre would lead Silence right on out of the mission guild, stretching as the bright sunlight fell upon the two of them. The cat's ear gave a twitch as Silence spoke, the cat giving a reflexive answer. "Somewhat - definitely for the local jobs, and both Luminas and Rustport are known to keep some work for themselves. But the really big stuff tends to get posted to all the boards at once." Which made sense - bigger jobs meant more funding, meant more exposure!
It didn't take the two of them long to get to a tech store, and a good fifteen minutes later, Syre was still chatting away, helping Silence get a mix of what worked, what looked good, what was practical, and what was in her price point. Did she want a standalone or something she could wear on her wrist? What color did she want? How would she keep it charged?
"Hm..." From there, they'd narrowed it down to two or three models...

"Heh. Lead the way then!"
Silence chuckled lightly and padded after the cat, following the stretch with a gentle crack of her neck. She'd sigh softly and flick her ears forward as the other spoke. So some jobs would be kept by different locations, some of the bigger ones would get posted all over the place... The shutmon rubbed at her chin rather thoughtfully and considered this information briefly.
"Spose I know where me and Zephyr are heading next then. If the jobs here won't cut it well, some of the other cities might have something more our style."
The shutmon shrugged a bit and grinned wolfishly as they were quick to take her to a tech store. The wolf looking over the different models, bringing it down to three. There was one that would be good as a standalone, one that would be good for a wristlet... And then came the question of charging it.
The shutmon eventually picked out the wristlet, figuring that it could slide into a real easy spot and additionally picked up an earjack for it. Preferring wireless as she could just charge it herself at one of her lower levels.
"Ear jack, wristlet... heh even a little projector of stuff. That's real nifty. Little more expensive than I was hoping buuuut can't argue with results!"
The shutmon turned her wrist over a few times and found herself snickering lightly. A few months ago she had struggled with keeping care of a plant of all things! Now she had her own little way of keeping in contact with various individuals!
"All right so how do I add you into this thing...?"

"Heh, looks like it'll blend right on in with the rest of the armor too. But don't get too ahead of yourself, we still gotta check out and get it set up."
Of course, the thing wasn't activated while they were still in the store! The process wouldn't take long, though: the Digital World didn't really have a massive registration network, so every profile was more-or-less coded to each device. A good ten minutes later, on a bench outside, Syre would be tapping at the device on Silence's wrist.
Both showing her where the contact list was, and adding her number to it.
"And, tap here," Syre would draw her own D-Terminal out of her glove, "And the message shows up on mine, and I use that info to add you."
She gave a smile, glad to have all that sorted and out of the way. About an hour ago, meeting Silence felt awkward - but she was genuinely a nice Digimon with no clue who the black cat was!
Not yet, anyway.
"Anyway, if you find a job or whatnot, give me a ring. You sure look like you're able to handle yourself on the rough jobs."

"it's kinda nice, leather and plate going so well with... whatever metal this is."
The shutmon let out a small chuckle and shook her head, tapping at the device curiously. She'd have to spend a good amount of time getting used to this thing wouldn't she? The two of them went outside and silence would let the cat show her the ropes of the device, her brows furrowed a bit as the cat explained things about it.
"Just that easy huh... and this'll let me contact you long distance? Jeez. I think I better tell the guards about this back home, I think they could use stuff like this. Most of it is just word of mouth..."
Silence ran her hands over the device and tapped a few buttons, inspecting the item for a moment before grinning ear to ear. There was a photo option. After a moment she'd lean so that she was in frame with the blackgatomon.
"Say cheese!"
She certainly was fast on the uptake, there wasn't even really a moment for syre to get ready before their picture was taken and the wolf set whatever image that she had taken with the blackgatomon to her profile picture.
"Oh? Yeah! I'll make sure to give you a ring! And heh! I'd say so, I was able to give my guard trainer, a leomon one hell of a time when I was still a rookie! But I bet you're able to handle rough jobs too!"
The shutmon chuckled a bit and stood up, stretching some and letting out a small breath of air. She was rather pleased with how today turned out. This way she and zephyr could also keep in contact if the zephyrmon needed to go somewhere...
"Say hi to mikemon for me yeah? I'll see you round~"
The shutmon gave a small wave and took a step before blinking a few times, her face screwed up in confusion as to what she just said. Though she was facing away from the blackgatomon... her confusion would be palatable!

"Mm, I'm sure at least some Digimon in Rosewood already know about this stuff. Its just that there hasn't been time to really get the tech set up out there."
It made sense to the cat, at least! The BlackGatomon would show Silence a few more things, eventually stumbling upon the camera. With a chuckle, the BlackGatomon would lean in with a smile, just as the shutter was taken. And heck, Silence already had it set up as her background.
... Perhaps a bit weird to have a total stranger there, but heck, the cat's seen worse.
"Heh, I've handled a hard job or two. Sounds like we can make a great team." Syre gave a smile, standing up herself, but it seemed that Silence was soon to be on her way. The cat gave a wave as the Shutmon turned to leave - and then froze as the wolf spoke up.
"... E... eheh, sure..." A nervous chuckle was quickly followed by the cat turning around, gritting her teeth. That one... well, that stung her heart a bit. If Silence were to look right over her shoulder? Well, she'd see that Syre had already made her exit.

"I bet I could probably convince someone to get more equipment out there..."
Silence flicked her ears and considered briefly about talking to her father about shifting what he 'smuggled'. Honestly if he transported that sort of stuff or at least tried to set up shop he'd probably do much better!
Silence chuckled a little bit at the picture and tilted her head slightly as the cat confirmed her suspicions about being able to handle a hard job. The shutmon would have to remember that when picking them out and gave the cat a small grin.
[ccolor=lightblue]"That it does!"[/color]
However her confusion was only increased by the fact that she heard that nervous chuckle... and finding that syre had already left. The shutmon stood there in distinct confusion, staring at the place they had been sitting. The wind tugged at her cloak a little bit and there was this odd sensation in her core she couldn't fully explain.
"...Who is mikemon?"
The shutmon turned, thinking to herself about this question. Unable to come up with answers herself, she'd grit her teeth and maybe, just maybe she'd find out the answer in due time. Was he connected to syre? Or perhaps a blackgatomon she knew in the past life that just happened to know a mikemon she did?
Answers wouldn't come easy, nor would the next set of questions...
