The James' Birthday Party [OPEN]

Lantis spotted the Cutemon with a puzzled expression. She seemed to approach the cake. Supposing he'd best ask her credentials, the partner of the leader of AEGIS approached her. "Hiya, so, do you have an invitation young lady?" the Leomon asked in a silky voice. Fortunately this was a known entity. "Ah, Lan, that's just Coolmon" Colin called. "We know her, it's fine". Colin had met Coolmon in the Shibuya Terminal, she seemed a bit lost there before they had helped her return to the digital world. As far as Colin was concerned, Coolmon would be welcome at the party. "Heya, how's it going?" he asked her. Luke meanwhile waved at Marshal as he stepped onto the stage. "Oh wow, you're gonna join the band too?" he asked, excitedly. "Okay neat! Well, I think we're just going to deal with contemporary human music for the moment, so, if you've got a song in mind that most humans would know, we can play it" he grinned. How they would know to play it? Well, they -were- digimon. Data from music would come quick to them. Bellamy meanwhile complied with Coronamon and held his arms on the dance floor, ready to dance. Luke glanced at his brother, then to Marshal. " Can we do "Try Everything" first?" he asked, hoping that'd be a good thing to start with. If so, the music would play and the song would play loud through the ballroom setting. With Luke on the stage and Bellamy on the dance floor, it was Colin that Cion would be there for to share the news. The Arnamon seemed to be satisfied from the conversation with Koharu, so Colin tuned to her. "So, did it go well?" he asked eagerly.

Grilled cheese on pork, a fresh mix of vegetables, small pieces of cheese cake that were both fluffy and creamy... Cion felt like she was in paradise. Not having to cook for herself was one thing, but whoever was responsible for the service for this party deserved all the golden stars in the world. And she showed that by almost ravenously munching on whatever was on her plate. It was like this was the first time in weeks that she had actually been able to enjoy something again, and she literally and figuratively savored every moment of it.
Still, a outburst of gluttony and exultation had gained her some attention, but thankfully it was from someone she trusted and considered to be casual. Quickly chewing on a bit, she let the slice of delicious data vanish inside her system before giving herself a little shake of satisfaction. Grinning nervously at the young, muscular man, she scratched the back of her head and invited him to sit down as well. Removing some crumb in the fur around her muzzle, she took in a couple of deep breaths to calm down for the occasion.
Nodding almost furiously though, she leaned forward and folded her hands into one small structure. "It did, thank you! I got a contract, and when I'm hone I'll read through it and likely sign it... tihihih." She spoke with utmost cheer in her voice, almost squealing. Oh she could not wait to one day join the lovely trio and Kan on mission to take down bad guys and earn lots of money. She'd do good and be partially as wealthy as the twins and Colin. That way, she could have the moral high-ground and provide for her family she cared about.
With her fingers still twitching a little, her eyes briefly swayed as she once again thought about everything that had happened since the night. And now she was here, with things finally being in her favor her. Perhaps all was not truly lost after all. Perhaps... she could pull herself up again and find new purpose and destiny. And maybe, just maybe... her three closest friends would assist her with that.

"Invitation? Uh...What's the phrase...Na-ni so-re? La li lu le lo?" Coolmon replied to the silky smooth Leomon before some familiar voices sounded off! “…Oh! You’re one of Luke and Bellamy’s pals, right? And Colin’s too?” The pink rabbit adjusted her headphones before rubbing the back of her head. “Well…Nice to meetcha, I’m Coolmon!”
How was it going? She was…sorta lost but at least she was around friends and friends to be alike. “It’s going. Dunno how I got here. Glad I did, though. You?”
There was also a cat…Digimon there. She hadn’t seen her before. “…Um. Who are you, ma’am?” …Actually, she barely knew who anyone here -was.- Might wanna fix that.
...Also there was music blaring. Coolmon wondered if she could join in on that in time.

Marshal was a little nervous, but luckily Luke had picked a song he actually knew. After a moment of reflection to remind himself of the lyrics, he nodded for the band to start. He started singing when it was time to come in. "I messed up tonight I lost another fight I still mess up but I'll just start again I keep falling down I keep on hitting the ground I always get up now to see what's next" It seemed to be going pretty well. Luckily, Luke and the others had picked a key that fit Marshal's lower vocal range. The song continued without an issue. Coronamon, meanwhile, immediately got started dancing with Bellamy. The two of them had danced together before, but this time it seemed that he actually knew what he was doing.

The catering was of course all provided from a bit of savings that Colin and Sophie had made on the side in their adventures around the digital world. Nothing but the best for their guests after all. They did want to make a good impression on those they didn't know after all.
"Ah, that's great!" Colin said, beaming at Cion's news. "In that case I look forward to doing assignments with you, Cion... that is if you decide to join us of course" he added.
Lantis glanced over at Colin and the twins. "Yep, they're my pals" he said. Heck, he'd even say they were his step-brothers, but lately they hadn't really slept under the same roof anymore. Which was fine, they were all busy with their respective work. But, the main thing was that Lantis was rather fond of the twins.
Then Colin invited Cutemon over to their small gathering. He chuckled at her odd answer. "Well, good to hear it's going somewhere at least. I'm doing great myself, thanks" he said.
Then the music played, Colin turned to look at the band, surprised at how good they sounded. Marshal definitely could sing very well - Luke didn't disappoint on the guitar, and Roy and Rex seemed like good investments.
Meanwhile, Bellamy danced very enthusiastically with Coronamon, pulling off some fun moves that looked like a thrill to watch. "Heh, you've improved, hotstuff" Bellamy remarked, very impressed at how their steps now matched each other, no longer stepping on each other's feet. Eager to support their partner and friends, Colin, Sophie and Lantis clapped along to the beat, watching the two digimon (thankfully not literally) set fire to the dancefloor.
All too soon, it seemed like the song ended.
"Heh, that was awesome, Marshal" Luke said to the young man. "What should we play next?" he would let him make the next choice.

The words Colin spoke were the icing on the cake of this truly marvelous day. She was beaming with joy, eyes wide as a toothy smile overcame her lips. Even with the typical fangs that were an aspect of many beast digimons, in this instance she was the happiest, most adorable little ball of silver fluff one could imagine. Not a single dark though crossed her mind, not even neutral. It was all sunshine and rainbows, so unlike what she was used to at this point. The light she had found to reveal her path... it made her happy, and hopefully content as well.
"Yes yes! I'd love to join you!" She immediately replied rather vociferously, quickly pulling back into her chair as to compose herself. "Oh dear... hehe, sorry." The vulpine digimon apologized with a sheepish, wide grin as she scratched the back of her head. Always trying to stay calm and unobtrusive, even in times of pure bliss; that's how she tried to be polite though it did not always work. Couching into her hand, Cion nodded once again, confirming that she would love to work with the dearly treasured trio in the near or distant future. They were pleasant friends after all, and had quite the power and resources at their disposal.
A moment of silence entered before splendid music performed by a band started to fill the big hall with auditory delight. She, alongside Colin, watched Bellamy danced with a Coronamon. At this point in time, she did not know that he was in love with this digimon, but they looked happy dancing together which made her happy as well. Not clapping as she was still busy eating, she often motioned her head in tune with the rhythm of the song to at least appear involved.

Coronamon smirked as Bellamy remarked on his improvement. "I won't lie, Marshal playing music around at home so much lately has definitely helped with that."
Marshal, meanwhile, finished the song pleasantly. It turned out well! Luke and the other Digimon were excellent musicians. After they finished, Luke offered to let Marshal pick the next song. Being put on the spot was nerve-wracking, but he suddenly had a burst of inspiration. "How about, 'Don't You Worry Bout a Thing?'" That was one of his favorite songs to sing, so he hoped that the band knew it.

Koharu smiled when she noticed Cion has shared her excitement with Luke. She left them to their own business and approached the birthday girl, casually taking an alcoholic beverage. "Well, then I think this might be boorish, but if you don't mind, would you like to talk about a business right now, Sophie? Of course, only when you don't mind." She hope that this is tactful enough. She can't say that because no one is nearby talking to her that she wanted to entertain her...
Kon-chan and Warg follows behind her, making sure that she won't feel tired. The two wondered what sort of talk that their partner want to have with the party girl?
"...You see, this has been in my mind recently, but... has the Japanese Government supported your organization...? As far as I know, DATS might be multinational in the membership, but I'm kind of worried about AEGIS. Politics... especially Japan's politic is a bit..." Koharu bit her lips. It's a really dire thing. The american base in Japan got a horrible backlash form the locale. Some even still questioning why there are American base in Japan, all while Japan themselves cannot have their own army force, only JSDF exists.
Having Sophie as leader of AEGIS, even when she's quarter Japanese (From what she heard from Colin) might be a sensitive subject to the government. For now, Sophie is an American citizen, who came here for a reason she had not known yet... she never asked to Colin, but she know, the government will be quite annoyed with this "unofficial" successor of DATS.
However, as someone who knows terror of Digimon, Koharu wanted to help them as best as she can. Profit wise, it's currently none, but if AEGIS could somehow become an organization, a needed one, then no matter when it was, PROFIT will eventually need their cooperation. They need to build a goodwill between them.
That's why, she's here with a proposal, but she might need to ask sensitive subjects...

So then! It seemed that Cion would be joining PROFIT. Colin was pleased at this development. Sophie meanwhile was in conversation with Koharu.
"Oh, of course I don't mind" Sophie said, happy to talk shop, given that everyone else was in busy conversation. Koharu then enquired if the Japanese government supported AEGIS. Sophie shook her head.
"AEGIS is so far a private enterprise" she said. "While I'm not rich myself, my grandmother has been very helpful in getting everything up and running. She's a native Japanese citizen and has a very strong reputation in the business community in Shibuya. She's currently helping me out in getting investment from businesses around this district, and so far it seems to be going well". She was smiling at this point, given that something like AEGIS was bound to be very popular.
"Basically, what board of directors wouldn't want a digimon security organization active in an area where digimon attacks are known?" she reasoned. "However, direct investment from the Japanese government itself is a bit more tricky, since I'm an american citizen and can't really work for foreign governments. But I was approached by a representative of the government to let me know that as long as AEGIS acts in the interests of protecting Japan from digimon attack, then they will assist however they can".
So far, Sophie wasn't hesitant in talking to Koharu. She wasn't easily offended, so many subjects were open for her.
Meanwhile on the stage, Luke grinned and nodded at Marshal. "Yep, I sure do" he answered. Rex and Roy did too, and began the beat of another song.
Bellamy meanwhile looked around at the crowd. "Hey, it's not just our party, join in!" he encouraged, before dancing again with Coronamon.
Lantis, who had been relatively inactive while hovering around the food table, decided on something. In a glow of light, he shrunk and de-digivolved to Spadamon. In this form, he approached Cion.
"Do you care to dance, madam?" he asked, offering his hand.

As the music kept on echoing within the walls of the festive hall, Cion honestly did not feel like joining the dance floor despite Bellamy's joyous invitation. Truth be told the elegantly dressed Arnamon could not remember the last time she had to foot it in either of her three existences, if she had at all in the first place. She'd rather not make a fool out of herself, especially while unaccompanied. Sitting together with Colin, bantering and savoring the tasty food seemed like a much more pleasant and inviting proposition. That at least was until the unthinkable occurred.
Lantis, the partner of Sophie had de-digivolved to suit her site and kindly offered her an opportunity to dance together. At first gasping quietly, a faint blush appeared on her silver cheeks before her muzzle displayed a warm, genuine smile. It required the vulpine Rookie to muster a lot of courage and overcome a few... blockades... within her mind, but eventually, she gently took the Spadamon's hand to be led wherever he sought. "But of course, monsieur." She answered mellowly as she got back up on her feet, sparks of bliss glittering in her golden eyes.
There were more reasons than just wishing to strengthen heir bonds with AEGIS an P.R.O.F.I.T. that made her accept the invite of course. Seldom had her life been of much fortune with recent events having taken their toll on her mind. Yet maybe it was with her attaining another purpose in a semi-heroic group of mercenaries which had broken the cage that had trapped her spirit and soul. It felt... good having fun, the numbness of past weeks having ceased. She had always been one who embraced the pleasures of life, and now where she had the chance to do so without hindrance she took it unhesitatingly.
