The first thing that should probably be made obvious, is that Ophelia didn't actually have any clue how dating was supposed to go, by normal standards.
She never was the schoolgirl that got asked out, or the talk of the village, or what-have-you; she grew up up in the mountains, raised by her mother and father - both of whom were mountain-faring digimon, whom tended to keep away from society for their own reasons. As a result, as far as social skills went, Ophelia knew how to navigate the mountains. She knew how to respect the territories of other digimon up in the mountains, and how to establish her own territory if she ever wanted to settle down in the mountains. She knew how to traverse another digimon's territory or hunting grounds without intruding too badly, and she knew where it was safe to hunt without angering anyone.
But for all the things she knew, she was unfamiliar with certain concepts that were common amongst those average digimon who had more civilized upbringings, in the towns and villages and cities of the digital world. And, of course, dating was one of them. She wasn't completely clueless, at least; she had her context clues, and wasn't afraid to ask around. But without having any prior experience dating, all she could gather was that dating was essentially a more casual form of courtship - a way for two digimon to meet and see if they're compatible to become partners. It was perfectly fine if dates didn't work out, to what she gathered - but it was common for digimon who believed themselves compatible to go on subsequent dates with eachother as well!
Though, even with all of this, she still didn't know what you were actually supposed to do on a date.
Which proved to be a problem, when she had signed up for a blind dating event! It had something to do with some holiday called 'Valentines Day' coming up, from what she gathered - a holiday surrounded around romance and love - and at the time, it sounded really fun! She had signed up for it on impulse, without giving it much thought... But now that she had time to think it over, she quickly came to the realization that she would have no idea what she was doing... Which, in a way, was unacceptable to a small perfectionist part of her mind - she should've figured this out from the get go! Stupid, stupid... Well... It was too late to back out.
She'd glance at the little folded slip she had been given, and then nametag that she was wearing - hanging on a little lanyard. On the nametag was her name - as to be expected - so that her prospective date could recognize her, and the slip similarly had the name of said prospective date on it...
... Though, she'd squint a little a bit once she noticed the name written on it - the fact that it simply read 'Kitt'. Reading this name brought to mind the smaller Spadamon that she had met not too long ago - a nice fella, that she uh... May or may not had accidentally given a concussion when she first met him. Though it couldn't be him, right? This had to just be a coincidence - yeah! Clearly another digimon with the same name - that's all. Though, this denial wasn't so much out of her not wanting to try dating with Kitt - but more that she couldn't necessarily see him going on a blind date, let alone be the one that was picked for her out of the other digimon that signed up for this!
Still though, she'd glance up- supposing that she would look around for this supposed Kitt, even if she was still unsure about her obliviousness to the customs of dating. Maybe she'll be able to learn this way!

Of all the things Kitt has done in his life: from fighting, stealing, and foraging, to being adopted by a Bancho Leomon with an adorable little bean named Eris that he would cherish, he did not expect being invited to a blind date of all things.
"I knew I should have stayed in bed this morning." he muttered to himself, readjusting the sleeve of his yukata that Eris made for him. Overall it was a nice outfit, it was very lightweight, cool, and comfortable to wear, but for some reason it felt a little bit off being out with his cloak. It was like a security object to him. Wearing it made him feel comfortable when he was in public, but now it felt like he was a different person all together.
Holding flowers in his hand, he took a sit on a nearby bench and took out the letter in his pocket along with the lanyard with his name on it. He didn't know how he got signed up with this blind date stuff to begin with, but he was here now so their was no turning back. Usually if something like this happen, Kitt would have just blown it off. But Eris's pleads convinced him otherwise. It was tough getting a say with that Gigimon; whatever she says goes. But a date? He had never been on a date his entire life. How would he know what to do? What if they didn't like him, what if they found him boring, or what if they forget the date entirely? Wait... that may actually be a good thing.
Staring at the letter, he paused a brief moment before opening it, swallowing all of his self doubts and slicing it open with his claw like it was butter. He took out the sheet that had his blind date's name written in.
Ophelia.
Kitt was confused. For a moment there the atmosphere had been tense, he had though over contingency plans over again if it was someone he didn't want to see. But the name brought back his memory of her - she was the first other Spadamon he'd ever seen. He'd never forget her, and the concussion she accidentally gave to him. Though he was still unease about her, due to her 'outgoing personality.'
Nevertheless, he got up and started walking in the crowd looking for it, either one of them would be easy to spot since they would be the only Spadamons in town he hoped.

With the number of other digimon milling about and looking for their dates, the air was saturated with their scents, barely discernable from one another. It made it difficult for Ophelia to sniff out whether the Kitt she knew was really here or not, since his scent - if it was there - was swamped out by the smells of so many other digimon. It was then though, that she noticed that some of them were wearing scents that weren't their own - but were still pleasant to her nose nonetheless - or carrying gifts in their arms, too.
She faltered a second as she took note of this - a hint of doubt welling up inside of her. Should she have gotten a gift for her date, too? Should she have made herself smell all nice too? Sure, she did take a bath, and she brushed out her mane and groomed herself the best she could... But maybe she should've gotten something! Sure, she wasn't going into this expecting to come out with a date, but at least she shouldn't waste her date's time... Though, then again, maybe she didn't have to worry too much? Maybe if her date is indeed the Kitt she knows, then she'd be dating someone like herself, more simple, not so fancy-pants? She certainly hoped so...
...
... Guhh... She'd shake her head a bit, trying to turn her thoughts on to a more confident path. This wasn't like herself, why was she worrying so much? She was Ophelia! Her mom could chop a mountain down, her dad could out-punch a BanchoLeomon! ... Okay, those were exaggerations, but her parents were great, and they raised her and taught her to be great too, so she had nothing to worry about! Yeah! She'd fist-pump in the air to herself, much to the confusion of a few of the digimon around her, before she proceeded to pick up the pace - trying to continue her search.
And that search wouldn't take much longer. As other digimon were meeting up with their dates and filtering out, the air would get clearer, and it was easier to look around as well. As a result, she'd eventually get a whiff of that familiar, distinct scent of a certain Spadamon - indeed confirming that her date was Kitt - and would begin moving in the direction of where the scents were coming from. All the while though, she couldn't help but smell something... Flowery, much like some of the gifts and scents some of the other digimon adorned themselves with, and something else indeed smelled nice... Those worries she had before would slowly well up again - and when she finally caught a glimpse of a wandering Kitt, what she saw didn't help much either.
She could see the yukata he wore, deep blue - like his hoodie that she saw him with before - with a wave pattern at the edges, white obi, and an eyecatching yellow tie... He was meticulously groomed, with a little bouquet of flowers carried in one arm, and indeed the nice smells were coming from him - she had no doubt now. On one hand, she wanted to feel good for this, that he was trying his hardest too, but all the same...
... She felt inadequate, for how little she actually managed. Stupid, stupid, dumbass, she berated herself internally... Why didn't she think to get a gift, or to make herself look or smell nice? Almost habitually, she couldn't help but pick at the edges of her mane, plucking individual strands out to try and busy her hands with something, as well as making a soft, anxious purr in her throat in an attempt to hopefully relieve the welling up stress... She had almost completely forgotten that maybe she should approach Kitt, and greet him, until a passing digimon bumped into her and broke her from her thoughts..!
She'd stiffen a little in surprise with this, but would blink at Kitt's direction, and would take in a deep breath. Okay. She can do this...
... "Yo, Kitt!" Ophelia would manage to force out as she waved to and approached Kitt, her tail swishing in a friendly fashion, as she put on the best smile she could. Nothing was wrong. She was perfectly okay. She could do this! "Funny to see you here; I'm guessing you're my date then, huh?" She'd grin a little, showing Kitt her sheet, Kitt's name clearly enscribed on it.

As expected, the town was busy with date-goers, duos of Digimon who juts fancied a day of getting together. Many different areas was full of people, despite this town still being under construction, and the more popular sections was almost impossible to move through the group of 'Mon waiting in long lines. Kitt became anxious quickly. Not just because all of the Digimon, but because he had no place where to take Ophelia to, that is if he can find her. It looked like this large crowd was going to stay like this for awhile.
He took out his D-Terminal from his pocket and started to fidget with it. Eris had made written notes on the thing so he'll know what to say and do when socializing with his date so he wouldn't come off as weird. If he still had any questions, he could always call her. She did say if he's in trouble, she'll come sprinting on all fours to him. He sighed and tilted his head upwards. He wondered on how her date was going.
A familiar voice called out to him. He looked back down and saw Ophelia happily approaching him, her mane blowing against the wind and with a smile that could easily brighten any Digimon's. Sudddenly a wave of nervousness brushed up against him as he started to turn red. Oh no, she's coming at me! Oh what do I say to her, what do I say? he thought to himself, dotting his eyes around the place with his tail as stiff as a brick. Part of him wanted to call Eris right away to come take him back home as this was a bad idea, but the other half told him to just wait it out and see how this goes. Conflicted, he didn't realized that Ophelia clarified that he was her date. Snapping back to reality, he extended both of his arms so she could see the flowers.
"P-PLEASE ACCEPT THIS TOKEN OF MY GRATITUDE PLEASE DON'T TACKLE ME!" he shouted, bowing down so he can hide his red face as best as he could.

Ophelia would be unable to help a flush of her own, as Kitt presented her with the flowers. Thankfully, much of this was hidden under her fur - but other little subtleties like her ears twitching and her tailtip quivering a little still communicated her fluster as she carefully took the flowers offered to her. She'd look them over for a second, and would bring her face closer to properly sniff them, before glancing up to Kitt as what he said actually registered to her. Please don't tackle him...? ... Oh, right! That was a thing that happened. She guessed that first impressions really did make, well, an impression... Though, nonetheless, she'd smile to him and laugh gently - even if the laugh sounded perhaps a hair off.
"Sorry about that whole mess before, I just kinda... Had gotten excited to see another digimon like me," Ophelia remarked with a sheepish hue, scratching the back of her head with her free hand. It was the first time she'd seen other Spadamon - even her siblings weren't Spadamon, they were a Gomamon and a Strabimon "I really appreciate the flowers, though! I won't tackle ya either - unless we wanted to spar or something that is, but uhm... I'm not sure if that's what dates do or not, anyhow." She'd mention, mostly without really thinking - though as she reached the end her tone dropped off a little as she remembered; oh, right, she had no fucking clue what she was doing.
Ophelia fell quiet for a second as a result of this, peering at Kitt's yukata for a second. "..." Though, she didn't need any prompting for her to snap out of this as she glanced back to Kitt's face, trying to offer a small smile. "I... I'm sorry I wasn't able to bring a gift of my own; this is my first time with a date, and I... don't exactly know what I'm doing." She admitted with perhaps a hint of shame, despite the smile, but would quickly change the subject - there was no need to dwell on this, she told herself. Why was she even dwelling? She'd force herself to grin with all her confidence, and would take on a cheery and excited tone to instead ask "But! I'll try my best now! Where do you think we should go?" She wasn't going to let her own mistakes and imperfections ruin this for Kitt - she could easily call him a friend, and she wouldn't let her friends down!

Kitt slowly got back up as he realized that a few seconds had past and not once did the other Spadamon attempted to jump on him. But in response she only sniffed the flowers. It would seems that she liked them. So Eris was right after all: girls really do appreciate if you give them something on a date. His face exclaimed into relief, his tail swishing left and right, before his eyebrows quirked in realization about why she tackled him when they first met.
"Oh, it's fine. My head's tougher than it looks, even without the head armor." he replied. He gave Ophelia the flowers and put both of his hands behind him. "I guess compared to you, I have a much - ahem... stronger reaction seeing another Spadamon for the first time." It was kind of awkward for him to bring that up, since it was a little embarrassing thinking about it as his face turned a bit red for a second before going away.
"I not sure how dates work either." he chuckled nervously, "This is my first time as well." He tilted his head a bit when Ophelia fell silent for a minute, afterward she started to apologize about not bringing him something as well. He wondered what had got into her for a second, before brushing his doubts off. This was the female Spadamon's first date too, so they were on the same boat. "Oh no, that's ok. I mean according to Eris, a girl doesn't have to give anything back since that's the norm...according to her I guess."
When Ophelia ushered where they should go, Kitt started to look up and down, looking for a place. They can't go the whatever it was down the street since there was still a long line. It must be a fancy new restaurant. Had he woken up early and took this date seriously, they probably would have found a spot there. A bit of regret was visible from his face for a second, but nevertheless brushed it aside and looked at anymore places, before spotting a sign that told him a theater was close by. "Ooooh! We could watch a movie if you want."

Ophelia would carefully handle the flowers, and she couldn't help but appreciate the sweet flowery scent they let off - they were pretty, and smelled nice, and being a simple girl with simple needs, that was enough to make her approve. She'd glance over to Kitt as he gave reassurance and explained his side of it all, and would giggle a little, smiling faintly. "I guess we all got a little carried the hell away in our own ways, huh?" She mused humorously, thinking back to Kitt pinching and contorting her cheeks, and how he got utterly emotional embracing Roy right after! "I was worried I had, well... Given you a concussion or something, when the tumble happened, honestly." She admitted with a sheepish chuckle.
When Kitt admitted that he was unsure on what to do for a date though, and that it was his first time as well, Ophelia noticeably relaxed - a lot of the tension in her body seeming to melt away upon realizing he was just as clueless as she was, to a certain degree. She still felt bad over jumping into this without any clue what she was doing, but the fact that Kitt was in the same boat as her was a little reassuring nonetheless. At hearing him mention what Eris told him though, about girls not needing to give a gift back, she'd perk a little and tilt her head. "Why? That seems rather silly to me... It should be an equal exchange!" She'd remark; glancing down to the flowers she was carrying. "I dunno what the heck me being a girl or you being a boy would have to do with that," She would add with a hint of confusion, before glancing back up to Kitt - quirking her lips a little as she thought to herself. After a moment though, she'd hum in an 'ah well' fashion and shrug her shoulders with a big grin - deciding in her head that she'd get him something by the end of this!
In the meantime though... Ophelia would be looking around as well, as Kitt looked for a place for them to go to - she didn't know the town all that well yet, and it didn't help that a lot of the popular venues were probably already packed with date-goers and the such. She wasn't that troubled over something like a fancy restaurant though - as long as it was enjoyable, she'd be happy! But then, she would hear Kitt speak up and suggest watching a movie together! She'd glance to him, and then follow his gaze to the sign in question - her ears noticeably perking and tail slowly swishing in slightly tentative but definitely curious interest. "A movie?" She'd murmur curiously - mostly to herself.
She had heard of what they were - moving pictures with sound and such, to tell a story! But having grown up in the mountains... "... I've never actually seen a movie before," She'd admit with a soft laugh - grinning in Kitt's direction, but seeming to be eager to try something new nonetheless. "Hell yeah, lets do it! I'm ready to do something new today!" Already, she would take Kitt's hand, and would begin to follow the sign in question, looking around for the theater.

The feeling of Ophelia's hand squeezing his hand made Kitt jump in surprise and let go. Out of instinct, he used his other arm to reach for his hoodie and put it over his head, only realizing that he wasn't wearing it and was just tugging the back of his yukata. He grabbed her hand back seconds later; it felt weird, but comfortable. He almost forgot the feeling of grabbing the hand of someone that wasn't a little stub for an arm. He glanced up to Ophelia, who painted a ray of sunshine all over her face. Her eyes, her lips, and her spirit all at once smiled at him. Was it something he said earlier? Well whatever it was, it put her in a relaxed mood. He smiled back at her. "Well then let's not dilly dally any longer." The two were then off, going to where it movie was according to the sign.
After a few minutes of walking, the movie theater was right in front of them and they started to wait in line. Above them was a list of movies to watch: Gone with the Zephyrmon, Of Pride and Prudence, Like a Bancho, The Dark Knightmon Returns, The Mon with a Silver Hand, and Meramon of Trouble. To Kitt, the first two sounded like a romantic comedy movie. So far it looked like The Mon with a Silver Hand seemed like the only action movie with a decent title and poster for that matter. He tilted his head to Ophelia, who looked like she was taking the sights of the place.
"So with movies they have a lot of genres for certain audiences," he said in an intelligible tone, smiling at her direction. "Like for instance, Action, Adventure, Comedy, Drama, Horror, and Musicals. Action films have like these big stunts and chases, like chases, fighting, battles, and destructive crises - all while keeping you on the edge of your seat. Adventure films can be like that too sometimes, but it usually about exciting stories with exotic locations. Comedies makes you laugh your ones and zeros off, Dramas are are serious, plot driven stuff, and Horror films are made to scare the data out of you." He paused to take a breath, that was a lot to say. In fact, it's the longest he's ever talked.
He pointed to The Mon with a Silver Hand poster. "I think that movie looks pretty cool to watch, what about you?" He looked at her, wondering if she was comprehending with the things he said.

Upon Kitt letting go, Ophelia would pause to glance back at him, wondering if she had done something wrong. But... Seeing him smile back at her, and take her hand once more, seemed to make her relax as the two made their way towards the theater. "Yeah!" She'd respond cheerily, clearly in a good mood as her previous awkwardness and nervousness went forgotten in lieu of trying something new!
Indeed, as they approached the theater and began to wait in line, Ophelia would be glancing around at her surroundings - at the tall sign of the theater, at the different posters, at the titles displayed on a sign above the ticket booth... There were so many different choices, it was a little bit of sensory overload, in a sense - she wasn't sure which one to go for! Some of the posters looked silly and goofy, others were more artistic, and some were bombastic and brightly colored to be eye-catching! And catch her eye they did - she would have her gaze linger between different posters, at least, until Kitt spoke up.
She'd make a soft, surprised 'mrrp' - having been so engrossed at admiring the posters until Kitt's voice broke her from her thoughts - before glancing in his direction, listening as he described the different genres. They all sounded pretty interesting to her - and hearing him go into more detail was pretty cool! She wasn't sure if horror would necessarily be her thing, but everything else sounded interesting nonetheless! She wanted to see all the movies, if she could - though odds were they wouldn't be able to see them all in one day! "And Musicals have lots of music, I'm guessing?" She'd ask curiously - she was eager-eyed and inquisitive, adding "You seem to know a lot about this stuff too though, Kitt!" with a happy chirp, squeezing his hand a little - she didn't quite note the fact that she hadn't let go of his hand yet.
She'd glance up though, as Kitt would point to a distant poster on one of the walls - it was one of the movies that had caught her eye, in fact; particularly the digimon depicted. A BanchoLeomon and a HiAndromon, namely - two tough-looking digimon, the HiAndromon indeed having a metallic-silver hand to match the title, and also contrasted with the rest of the usually dark plating they had. It was eye-catching much like the other posters, and it brought an eager grin to Ophelia's face as she nodded to Kitt, exclaiming "Yeah! Lets do it!" Already her tail was swishing in anticipation - she couldn't wait for it to be their turn in line, so that they could see the movie sooner - Kitt seemed to know better than she did, so she was confident that this would go splendidly!

"Ah well, it's just a bit of a hobby of mine." Kitt nervously rubbed the back of his head, trying his best not to get flustered over Ophelia's comment. "Before I met Eris, I...would often travel a lot." Kitt said slowly, "So watching movies was one of the few thing I did in my spare time."
He was surprised when Ophelia wanted to watch The Mon with a Silver Hand as well. As first he thought she wanted to see a romantic movie, but an action movie? Now that was a surprise. Then again, she didn't seem like the type of girl that would like that sort of thing. With that being said, Kitt nodded in agreement with her, and the line opened up to the two finally, and they bought their tickets. They came about fifteen minutes early before the screening, so they had some time to get something to eat.
Kitt approached the vendor, looking at the various menus items. The prices of the many food options were ludicrous: 500 bits for a large popcorn, 1000 bits for a movie meal,? All Bullshit! he thought to himself. His face contorted to disgust. He could go to another restaurant and they would charge him for half the price. He looked at how many bits he had. Even though he had just about enough, it would leave him without enough money if they want to continue their date elsewhere after the movie.
"So umm... you want anything before the show starts." he said to her. If she said yes, he would have to take a bit of "drastic measures."

Ophelia nodded in understanding, smiling brightly. "Well, it's a damn good thing I got you helping to pick out the movie - there's so many to choose from that I couldn't even begin to think of what I wanted to watch!" She remarked with a sheepish laugh, grinning a hair. She was a little afraid that if she had to pick, she'd choose a boring or bad movie or whatever - even if the idea of one still felt a bit abstract to someone who'd never seen a movie before. So, Kitt pointing out a specific interesting-looking movie helped narrow it down, well, a lot.
As they got their tickets, and moved for the concession stand, Ophelia would similarly note the expensive prices on the menu. A lot of this was highway robbery, really! How did people expect to pay for any of this?? She'd quirk her lips a little, peeking into the coin pouch at her hip to similarly see how many bits she had; which was.. Not much more than Kitt had, really. But maybe if they split the cost... "Maybe we could pay 50/50 for a large popcorn, share it?" She suggested to Kitt with a small smile. "That or maybe something small - this stuff seems kind of pricy, and I'm not too hungry at the moment; food can always wait til later!" She was used to having to deal with being hungry for awhile, with hunting - and she didn't want Kitt to end up spending so much on just a snack for the movie!

Kitt crossed his arms and thought for a moment. Paying 50/50 seemed like a good idea at first, but he didn't want Ophelia to spend any money at all. So that was off the list. She wasn't that hungry, so he'll go with something light - like candy and a drink for instance. But still he didn't want to spend any money at all. It was understandable that movie theaters needed to make money besides selling tickets, but this was just theft in his book. Then, a metaphorical light bulb brighten his mind. A sly, smile started to spread across his face, a smile in which he'll be up to no good for just this once.
"I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere~" he said chirpy, winking an eye at her. Walking up to the concession stand again, he saw his targets: candy bars, and cups all on top of the counter. The cashier was distracted by another customer with their order. As they turned around for a couple of seconds, Kitt acted fast and took two cups from the counter and dipped his paw in the candy stand, taking four candy bars, two for each of them. He quicky hid them inside his yukata just as the cashier noticed him and asked him if he would like to order something.
"Oh I'm just looking." he replied in a causal manner. The thing about thievery is that you always have to act and look ignorant. Kitt knew that all too well since before he met Eris, he lived a life of stealing to get by the days. Besides with someone as well dressed as him, they wouldn't suspect a thing.
He walked back to Ophelia, taking out the two candy bars and the cup just that was for her. "Sorry about that. I had to 'negotiate' the cashier for a reasonable price." Obviously that was lie.

Ophelia tilted her head a bit - a little confused at what Kitt was thinking, when he told her that he would 'be right back'. "Oh, ok?" She'd murmur and tilt her head the other way, as he winked to her and walked up to the stand. Though she'd find it difficult to keep track of him thru the crowd of other digimon milling about, getting popcorn or drinks, and the such. She did try to stand up on her tippy-toes - though given that she was but a Spadamon, some of the taller digimon still blocked her view of Kitt a little; only letting her see glimpses of him as the crowd waxed and waned. And those glimpses were not quite enough for her to catch him swiping the goodies - with how quick he was on the grab.
Though, before long, he would return with his haul of candy bars and a couple of cups. She'd take the cup and bars - deciding to carry the bars in her cup until she filled it up - though all the same, it raised questions of how exactly Kitt got these for her! As he explained himself though... "You negotiated..?" She'd ask him as she glanced over to him - maybe a little skeptical, but not outright rejecting the notion. It wasn't like she hadn't negotiated with people before, though she still could've helped split the costs!
She'd frown faintly to herself as she glanced down to the candy bar and cup in her hands - in fact, he was giving her all these things, from the flowers that were still carried in the crook of her arm, to the snacks and a drink... She couldn't wait until she could actually get him something in return - it just didn't feel right to take all these things without some form of returning the favor! Though, she didn't want to dwell on it too hard - she already had put herself in a low mood before, she didn't want to put herself in a bad mood all over again!
Instead, she'd simply smile to him the best she could - even if that feeling of her inner perfectionist nagging at the back of her mind bothered her still - and mention "Thank you though! How long until the movie...?" She'd begin moving for where she could see other digimon filling their cups, and would take a second to try and make up her mind on which drink she wanted - deciding upon what smelled the tastiest to her - putting the candy bars in her coin-pouch so that she wasn't juggling a hundred things at once.

"Yup! It's a little trick I've picked up from traveling a whole lot." Kitt replied back. He managed a small grin, and glanced across the lobby area to see where the movie would be playing at. He took out the ticket from his pocket and squinted a bit. If there was another thing he didn't like about theaters is that the font for the tickets was always small to read. "Theater 7..." he muttered to himself. He glanced back up to Ophelia who thanked him for the snacks.
He nodded gleefully at her in response, smiling with a thousand rays of joy. "Oh um... the Showtime will start around 4:00. But we got hear a little early arooooound...." he took out his D-Terminal. "...3:45, so we got around fifteen minutes left before the movie starts." He stood to the side as she went into line to fill her cup. He wasn't in too big of a rush since he was not thirsty. There were many options to choose from: from soda, to juice, to slushies? What's a slushie he asked himself. From looking at the title, it sounded something slimy. Curious, after Ophelia was done filling her cup, he started to pour it in to his cup. Surprisingly, it was something frozen, yet it was still flowing like a liquid.
"Hey Ophelia, do you know what a slushie is?" he asked, staring into his cup inquisitively. Taking a sip from it, he was met with surprise on how good the frozen mushy flavor was. He was taken aback by it, so much so that he started to jump on one foot then the other in response. He probably was making a bit of a scene, as other Digimon started to stare at his sudden action. But for the first time, it didn't matter to him; he was with Ophelia. That's all that matters.
"Ophelia! You have to try this!" he exclaimed.

Ophelia didn't seem to quite catch on that Kitt had stolen the candy bars and cups - she was perhaps a little naive and gullible, for all her bravado. Not to mention, she trusted Kitt! She had no reason to believe that he could lie or steal, let alone to a fellow Spadamon! So, as he mentioned it being a trick he picked up, she'd smile widely and innocently, mentioning "That sounds cool - you oughta teach me sometime!" without actually understanding what he meant by it all.
Regardless, as they began to get their drinks, Ophelia would end up picking a soda - deciding against putting icecubes in it. She could always chill it herself if she needed to! Still, she'd note the different labeled options, from soda, to juice, to slushies. It sounded a bit like slush, which Ophelia knew what it was - when water and snow mixed into, well, a mess that was prone to freezing back into treacherous ice. Did they make slush-style drinks too, she wondered? And indeed, she would watch as Kitt came up and got himself what looked like - to her - to be neon colored slush!
And similarly, when Kitt would ask if she knew what a slushie was, she'd respond "I dunno; but it looks and sounds a lot like slush! When water and snow mixes together, it kinda makes a mess that looks a bit like that - though it tends to make for slippery and crunchy ice when it all refreezes. I guess it's like that, but with some sort of drink?" She'd shrug a bit, but she was indeed curious nonetheless!
With this, she'd watch Kitt take a sip of the slushie, before he began to do a little dance - much to her surprise! She'd blink, before beginning to giggle softly, grinning warmly in his direction - she couldn't help but be reminded of her own sister, a hyperactive little Gomamon-X, for a moment there. All the same though, she'd grin and nod in response to him telling her to try it - and would put a little bit of slushie on her fingertip to taste it. Indeed, it was sweet and tasty, and the little bits of ice in the flavored slush would crunch lightly between her teeth - her tail would swish with similar excitement in tasting something new and good!
"This taste really good!" She'd remark with a grin, though would add "I might stick with this bubbly stuff though -" as she sipped it - it, too, tasted sweet and maybe a little tart; and she could feel the bubbles as she swallowed it down. She'd make a soft, happy purr- offering the cup to Kitt as she asked "Want a sip?"
