Keiji took another sip of tea while Otohime stuffed her face with melonpan.
"Yes, you could say we are ghost hunters. Some may call it childish, but it keeps us young in body and soul."
He then tapped his chin.
"Digital Monster Yokai? Hmmm, ah, I do remember one instance. We used to frequent an abandoned shrine kept in the backyard of an abandoned house, dedicated to a local, forgotten kami. The first few times we were there, nothing was out of the ordinary, but then suddenly there were apparitions, a ghostly miko who told us to begone. Flying objects. Karakasa-obake. Most people would have fled. But we were not most people. No, we kept coming back, seeking out the source, and then one day me and my friend Ryuchi we managed to go there during the day, and found a sleeping kitsune..."
He snapped his finger, trying to remember something.
"Otohime, what did we say was the name of that kitsune?"
The girl stopped stuffing her face, blinking with a mouthful of melonpan that she hastily swallowed.
"Uuuuuuh, wasn't it something like Beanamon?"
"Renamon.", the Alraumon helpfully interjected.
"Ah yes, the kitsune said its name was Renamon, and that it took residence in the shrine thinking it would be at peace while it tries to find a way back home. We have made sure people stay away from the shrine then. We hope the kitsune found its way back home."

Childish, it was not. But amusing? Kind of. No, not that. That's rude. Interesting was a far better word to use in this regard. The mention of a miko piqued Naoko's interest a little more. Were there any Miko digimon...? She wasn't all too sure... The girl tapped her chin repeatedly before the story continued and sort of peaked.
A Renamon at a shrine? Huh. Perhaps they were the same individual. "That's the one fox I can think of...Titania said something about those Digimon but I can't really remember what." Or if it'd be nice to say, really. Last she recalled, Titania didn't like them. "...Do you think it did? Have you gone to check if it's gone home?"

Keiji tapped his chin.
"I would not know. We have not yet checked back. Yokai and Kami are people, too. I do not wish to bother them any longer than necessary. After it had told us that it would not bother anyone else we have left it be."
Otohime finished swallowing her third Melonpan.
"Oi, maybe Nao an me can go and check it out! That would be cool! We could meet that Beanamon and maybe learn about more folks like Masaki!"
"I keep tellin' ya, we're not that many!"
"Yeah, and I smell the pollen you give off when ya lie!"
The Alraumon huffed and looked away. The room indeed smelled flowery now.

"That's...actually understandable. I wouldn't want to impose on them if I could help it but it's still worth checking to see if it kept it's promise or not. Plus...Yeah, Otohime and I could probably go check it out if you really don't wanna go. Also, it's Renamon, not...Beanamon. That's...What would that even be?" Naoko tapped her chin before the pollen hit her nose.
"...Wait, he's the reason the room smells all flowery now? Huh. Didn't know Alraumon could basically be like Pinocchio but with flowers and the like..." Naoko mumbled, grabbing another melonpan and chomping away at it.

"I can assure you, it is a trait exclusive to Masaki. He has told me so, himself."
The Alraumon blushed a dark green.
"I can't help it! I was born this way!"
"Yes, and that is ok, worry not."
Keiji looked outside for a bit.
"If you intend to go visit the shrine then you will need to obtain a permit from the city allowing you to enter its grounds. Or you take along one of the club, as we have the permit still. If you wish to go alone I will happily get you a permit."
"Aren'tcha still banned from the offices, teach?"
"Just from the Adoption Agency, worry not."
"Well, Nao, what do ya prefer?"

"Hey, buddy, if it makes you feel better, there's a lot of things people can't help sometimes. Like...uh...having bad taste in anime and whatnot." She was never going to stop grilling Haru about watching her anime SUBBED. LIKE A CHUMP. WHO DOES THAT. "Well, I am one who prefers to abide by the law when she can, so I'd go with getting a permit before we do anything. Just to be safe."
She'd also wanna bring Titania along for this escapade--she felt like the fairy's insight would be more than welcome for this theoretical endeavor to see if there was anyone at that shrine. "Pluuus...I'd want my friend along, too."

"Then I guess that settles that. No exploring today. I shall make sure I can get a permit for you."
The old man got up to make himself another cup of tea. This left the girls and Digimon alone. Otohime was still busy stuffing her face.
"So, Nao, how we gonna do that with the shrine?? We gonna go in all guns blazin'? Gonna see if that fox is still around? And then we grill it about who it is and why its here? Oh, that's gonna be awesome!"
She chuckled and took a swig of green tea before making sure to push some more melonpan Nao's way.

"No guns blazing or anything. It...should be really simple to go about, actually." Naoko began. "Seeing as there's...not much going on there, from what I can tell? It's calm. We shouldn't need to go guns blazing. But yes, we're going to check if the fox is still there. Ask it some questions about why it decided to stay if it did, maybe learn a few things. You know, fun stuff."
In all honesty it made a lot of sense to the girl. Though, she might have to tell Otohime not to threaten anything with a bat. "...Plus, maybe Jiro and Titania can make friends with the fox." She suggested!

Otohime was pumped now, her eyes almost sparkling.
"Heck yeah, fox buddies! This is gonna be cool!"
Keiji looked at the clock.
"It seems it is getting late. Ms. Toriya. If you want to, I can bring you home safely with our work van."
"Aw fuck, so late already? Boooo! But hey, it was a fun day, Nao! Let's hang again sometime!"
She gave her a wide grin...and then pulled a magazine from under the kotatsu, starting to read. Nao leaving was apparently already a certainty for her so she just began acting like she had already left. What an odd girl...

"F-Fox buddies?" Naoko snickered. That...sounded silly to her, somehow. It was hard to figure out why! A quick look at the clock gave the realization that...yeah, it was starting to get late. Naoko looked a little downcast. "...That'd be nice. It was nice hanging out with you, Otohime. I'd enjoy doing it again!"
The girl really was kind of strange. But it was the kind of odd that made you want to find out more about it. If...there really was more. As Naoko headed out the door with a wave to Otohime (she was about eighty five percent sure the girl didn't think she was there,) she wondered just what else could possibly happen.
[Exit!]
