Mischief At The Sea (Open!)

"...It's nothing. I carry Dorothy all the time. Sometimes in my bag, or just in my hands. Not really that much of a problem, given how small she is." Alice states with a bit of a chuckle, grabbing the small Tsukaimon and holding her with both arms in a hug of sorts, wiggling a little bit to get more comfortable. "Well, let's get going. Follow me." The green haired woman looks for something of interest, wondering if there are any shops or places to get a bite to eat, perhaps even something more insightful, her attitude cheerful, yet slightly concerned.

Once again, the tall, somewhat older Tamer is taken aback by the world around her to some extent, looking around with a sense of wonder apparent from the look in her eyes before finally settling on a potential destination. "Hey, want to go for some coffee or anything, or is that not for you? Do Digimon even have coffee?" She asks that latter question with a chuckle, searching for any shops or even anything of interest as she walks with her small Digimon partner in hand.

Dorothy can't help but ask a question. "What's coffee? Is it somethin' that you have to chase down 'cause it's fast?" This causes Alice to giggle and pat her head, the curious Digimon nipping at Alice's hand afterwards and missing.

"I'll tell you sometime later. It's not important, like explaining what I put into my notebook." Alice states this to her Digimon with a bit of a laugh as she walks, taking note of anything of interest she can spot and occasionally slowing down as something particularly catches her attention. "I still can't believe it. An entire world of beings like us, yet completely different at the same time... Hah, sorry, just thinking out loud."

Spotting a sign of a coffee mug on a small shop overlooking the ocean, she immediately heads in that direction, still holding Dorothy, the little Digimon wiggling her legs and flapping her ear wings every now and then, a slight grumble coming from her. "I don't like coffee. I'm more of a hot chocolate person, but it's unlikely I'll get anything of that sort here..." The two are met with a rather nice looking place with a good view of the water, a few tables set outside while a rather peaceful, simple interior is visible through a window, though it does seem a little strange, as the chairs are exceptionally short, as are the tables. The only other person visible outside is a Hawkmon, who seems to be sleeping. Everyone else is inside, which is where Alice heads with her Digimon partner.

Inside is a somewhat cramped place, but it definitely is a cafe, though. The only two human-sized seats are situated by the window and a small table, and Alice takes a seat in one of the chairs, a somewhat pleasant wooden one. "So. Now that you have a Digimon partner, you should know a few things... Well, aside from the fact you have to take care of them and all that. You'll need to keep them secret in the Human World, obviously."

"Well, yeah. Ya seem to stuff me in your bag a lot... It's kinda cramped in there..." Dorothy whines with a little bit of a grumble, slipping out of her Tamer's grip and onto the small table, where the little Tsukaimon walks around, stretching her legs. "Gyahaha, a lil' bit like how you're cooped up in here now." She seems awfully smug of that fact as Alice begins to head to the similarly short counter and orders something from a grumpy looking bird Digimon, Leaving Dorothy to chat with the two while the green haired woman gets into a small argument. "Ya know, you humans are kinda weird... All tall 'n very similar to each other... Kinda get confused who's who sometimes... 'Cept for Alice. She's the only one with green hair."

Alice soon returns with a mug of coffee... And what appears to be another mug... Which is entirely full of melted chocolate. The displeasure on her face is obvious as she slides the coffee mug over to Naoko's side of the table. "...Guess I was right."

"Yeah. Alice has a lotta issues. She's angry a lot, but not at me... I think it's at herself." Dorothy stops talking about the subject as soon as Alice sits down, the little Tsukaimon sitting down on the table with an impatient expression... Until she bursts out laughing at Alice's cup full of goopy, melted chocolate. "Gyahahaha, what? Didn't get what'cha asked for?"

An expression of pure disappointment and confusion serves as the majority of Alice's answer. "Something like that. Anyways, anything you two need to know now that we're somewhere a bit more comfortable?" She gazes into the mug full of melted chocolate, fairly certain that if she tried to drink it, it would be unpleasant... And letting it cool would be just as silly. "Humans aren't too uncommon out here, I met about... Three or so at this point... Maybe seven? Most of them were in the desert for some reason, I suppose there's treasure out there..." Alice attempts to "drink" her hot chocolate until she realizes just how hot it really is, the heat enough for her to stop doing so the moment she tries. "I suppose there's also treasure out here."

With a long, drawn out sigh, the green haired human decides to take out her notebook again, placing it on the table and taking out a pen. She then begins to carefully sketch out Titania, with Naoko able to see what she's doing, as well as a little of what else is in there, mostly thoughts on certain subjects and her experiences as a Tamer. "Okay, so... There has to be an easy way to Terminus. This is a town, after all... You think there's some kind of train station or something?" She mumbles to herself, continuing to sketch the fairy Digimon while Dorothy watches.

"Good to know that there's something we can do to get home, if we need it... And I assume there are jobs out here you can do. After all, Digimon have a society just like us, it's only logical." The emerald haired woman states as she continues to sketch, finishing up and leaving the drawing out for all to see. It's not the best, but it's fairly accurate. "It's an easy way home, really, I'm sure someone would understand your problem if it requires money to use." She seems relieved to hear about this, perhaps having expected a long, painful trek back to Terminus the long way around.

Dorothy can't help but comment on Alice's chatter a little bit, the little purple gerbil Digimon laying on the table with a lazy expression, her yellow eyes darting back and forth between Alice and Naoko. "Yeah. And here ya are acting like this is all new to you when you keep drawin' comparisons to the Human World. It's really dorky."

Alice shakes her head, and quietly chuckles to herself. "I guess it is, but I'm really curious about this kind of thing. Maybe I'm just a dork about it, as you said. Anyways, if you want to leave now, I guess we can... You could come with me, if you'd like, or should we look around some more..."
