"Nah, its just that Guru's usually the one better for dreams."
The doctor's specialty was in core analysis, after all - the psychoanalytic stuff could go to the proper seer. Right now, he had nothing but honest praise for his hard-working daughter, one who was finally able to start to see her place in the world. She was right - it was their responsibility to enjoy the time that they had left with K, and to worry about the future when the time was right.
"You're quite welcome, pumpkin." He gave a smirk, looking down to that sketch - and the surprised eureka moment that came to Holly. He blinked - and then just stifled a laugh! "That's more or less what I said when I said your core was taking a new shape! But, yes, something along those lines. Now..." He'd stand up from the bed.
"When we figure out what we're doing today, I'll call you on down - unless you just want to come down now. Sound good?" "Mm, good. Would be a shame to have to work through that fever all day..."
Syre gave a relieved nod, and carefully setting that journal on a nearby table, hearing her dad come back down the stairs. Mikemon stretched out his arms, giving a nod to Syre before climbing up the counter to sneak a quick peck on K's cheek.
"Looks like you two've had a good time. Decided how we're spending the day?"
"Well, apparently, movies and cake!"
Sure, why not!

Holly nodded a bit at the mention of the seer's name. She knew he was good at this sort of stuff and it was nice to see that he was of course one that they could go to for it. The meicoomon wondered to herself if she went to him would he be able to tell her more about the dreams?
"Heh... "
Holly blinked a few times and rubbed at her neck, she didn't know that's what he meant! Maybe there was something in translation that was lost or maybe she was jsut... having a hard time splitting her-
"I believe that it's a super mega tier digivolution, not a mega one Doctor. The signal intensity was far greater than that of Holly's when she was in mega before."
Holly froze in place and blinked a few times looking back up to Jade in a dubious somewhat surprised way. She'd glance at her da and then make an exasperated sound at that very concept.
"Uh... Okay. I mean I want to come down but there's research... tch. Jade are you okay doing this on your own?"
"It's fine Mother. I'll tend to the information that you requested. So far we have six leads and a potential seventh. I'll keep you updated."
"...I'll come down with you Da."
Holly shook her head and looked a bit out of sorts. Sometimes she never knew what to do with her Jade orbs, her Da or half of her family but she'd be darned if she was going to miss out on things!
"Would of been such a waste..."
K let out a sigh and flicked her ears as she heard her husband come back from talking with holly. The meicoomon trailing after him in a somewhat thoughtful manner. The renamon blinked a bit and smiled warmly down at syre, rubbing the top of her head and pressing her forehead against her daughters.
"As we never did celebrate her first real birthday... Then again we didn't do it for either of them. If siris was here I'd suggest a trio of birthday parties back to back.."
K let out a small chuckle and shook her head, swiping through the information on her data pad. She'd hold it up and show it to her husband. Figuring that she could suggest to the two of them to go pick up the items.
"Think you could go pick them up right quick? It's the bakery in whitewater that was across from that cafe we went to."
She'd smile warmly and shift slightly. There was a sad pang in her chest knowing that any birthday celebrations after this one... would not have her there. But she decided that she would have to live [or die] with that knowledge. That would not deter her from celebrating a long life for her children.

"That so? Well, mega or super mega, its something to look forward to."
Mikemon didn't seem nearly as shocked to Jade's declaration as Holly was. But for now, it was time to spend the day as a family: leading Holly right on down, he gave a smile as K snagged both of her kids up for a small hug. It seemed that today was going to be Syre and Holly's respective birthday celebrations - and the two were being sent right out to pick up the cake!
"Hm? Alright, shouldn't take long..." Taking a quick look at the number order, letting Holly see it for good measure, he'd open a portal right up to Whitewater. "Shouldn't take us more than ten minutes. Two cakes though, really?"
He teased, as he stepped on through, Syre giving her own chuckle. "Its just a little funny, that a couple of some-hundreds-of-year-old Digimon are taking the time to get us birthday cake of all things... but I appreciate it." And this was the week to splurge, anyway. Chores done, the cat would tilt her head towards the living area.
"Want to see what kind of movies the bug keeps lying around? My, um... 'written English' is not the best. Nor my Japanese..."

"Is it?"
Holly wasn't so sure, didn't that mean if she had something along the lines of super mega in terms of form... That she was going to be very powerful? It was something she'd sort of bite her lip about and stay quiet while thinking about it. She didn't know the full scope of super mega abilities or the forms themselves.
Holly blinked a few times at the hug she received as well as getting a cake for her own. The meicoomon giggled marvelously and K just simply nodded her head. It made sense, they both deserved to be treated right?
"Why not? I would of ordered ice cream too but so soon after breakfast?"
K stuck out her tongue and holly looked over the number order; quirking a brow slightly. She'd follow her Da through the portal with a little wave before it closed. Leaving the blackgatomon and renamon alone for the moment.
"Well to be fair, I would of gotten it sooner and celebrated it sooner if I could of. You're welcome dear. And try... couple thousand on my part. I'm not sure on your father."
K let out a snicker and trotted after her daughter, looking through the movies that the Stingmon kept. She wasn't sure about half of these titles. Some of them seemed a little excessive. Like 'ultra blast mega force go' and something about robots. K shook her head slightly and thumbed through the movies, some of these were cheesey romances, others were... well rather violent.
"Well how bout I give you all the language stuff I picked up from the human world? I uh... well I've learned about five or six of their languages; you could use it quite easily to blend in if you ever go~"

"Last I asked, I think dad said he was six-hundred-and-something. He's not sure of the round number anymore, but 'somewhere around that'?"
An interesting topic, but one that ran old after being teased about it for so long. Instead, Syre found herself doing what she'd only done rarely before: flipping through Stingmon's odd DVD collection. Indeed, there were violent and romantic films, but to an eye, a few classics.
The first Matrix, the earlier Star Wars triology, Ten Little Indians, and even a few older classics. "Hm, I don't know... it even took me a while to get down Digital Script. I suppose I can try and pick it up if I need to... hm."
Alright, this part always got her. Just why did the Stingmon have this many Christmas movies? Most of them didn't fit the mold of the rest of the collection, with older and off-color covers, a comparative eyesore to the rest of the set.
"Come to think of it, dad said you two had never sat through a movie before? Its starting to sound somethin' like a running joke..."

"Sounds about right. The only reason I remember my age is because of things that happened way back when."
K let out a small chuckle and shook her head. There was a lot that she didn't recognize in the movies, raising her eyebrows slightly at a few of the ones that Syre went over. Then there was... Christmas movies? K frowned upon seeing those, that was a holiday. That was a human holiday, she didn't even know if digimon celebrated that one in particular but there were a few that they did...
"Well you don't have to unless you need to. I'll leave them in your room if you want."
K shrugged her shoulders and flicked her ears hearing that mikemon had joked about them never being able to finish a movie. Wether it was from something happening to other stuff they constantly had been halted from finishing them.
"Oh yes. Things often come up when we're the most relaxed, why do you think we're so often on edge?"
The renamon chuckled lightly and took a few of the movies she had picked out; setting them aside and leaning to see what syre would pick. The ones she had pulled out were mostly comedic but a few of them were more actiony than anything.
"Then again we were more for doing other things than movies. Stingmon is the one that has it in for them..."
After all, what else would the bug do? Did he have friends? Did he have family? K had never asked him, in fact other than at the clinic she didn't see him all too often...

There was a reason for them being there, but as it was Stingmon's personal collection, Syre simply moved on with other parts of the collection. It didn't take long for K to pull out a few - and it seemed the theme of the day was comedy - but really, anything would have been fine. They would eventually settle on some movie from the 90s, and put the rest back in the Stingmon's box.
"I'd appreciate it. Something to read in my down time... and oh?" 'Something always came up'? The cat didn't know how to process that chuckle afterwards, simply shaking her head. Before she could come up with a response in regards to the Stingmon, the portal opened back up, Mikemon leading in as the MeiCrackmon carried two boxed cakes back into the kitchen. Nice and easy trip!
"Heh, that's pretty quick for mom ordering them like twenty minutes ago!"
"I think they just have to decorate a base? Chocolate's not a hard thing to anticipate." He gave a shrug, and a small smirk towards K. "Guess this finally makes up for that sweet-as-hell cake on our first date, huh?"
"Um..."

K was glad that they could at least pick out a movie together, it was pretty simple to settle on something and she didn't mind the pick itself. She'd tilt her head slightly as the blackgatomon said she would appreciate the extra reading material. The renamon nodded her head and would have to remember to put them on syre's desk after they were done for the day today.
"No problem sweetheart. And yes. It was like the world didn't want us to watch a movie together."
K shook her head with a small smile, turning to look at the meicrackmon trotting into the kitchen with the boxed cakes. She was actually surprised to see them back so quickly but... She wasn't going to argue, it'd be a nice desert for the both of them after all!
"I had hoped we'd get some fresh ones but oh well~"
K paused midstride and let out a smooth chuckle at the mention of that cake from their first date. She'd give a small shake of the head and waggle a finger.
"It does in some respect, at least that cafe decided to use real cake rather than the sugar bomb that was!... Did we never tell you about our first date Syre?"
K turned her head, clearly amused at this fact. She could still remember the expression on mikemon's face from when he tried the cake. She figured it would match her own...
"Hope you don't mind~ but we've got a movie picked out."

"Eh, can't guarantee fresh at this time of day, unfortunately."
He gave a chuckle - both at that and the first date story, which was enough for Syre to blink and avert her gaze. "Um, only that it was your first date and that it was a blind one... and I think I've heard about this cake before..." Sheesh, Syre was ridiculously easy to tease about this sort of stuff. Her ears flattened as she gave a huff, the doctor forced to stifle an earnest laugh.
But yes, movie day! And not some deep lore-filled epic about a hero from the Digital World, but some lighthearted and near plot-less comedy from the human world that didn't demand too much attention at all. The cat took a look at the title with an approving nod. "Yeah, guess this'll work. Glad Stingmon keeps a decent variety of these things around, easy to get too stuck on action films... anyway..."
If it was time, he'd settle right on in. A nice family day for K and the rest of them to just relax and enjoy each-other's company.

"Fair enough... Oh well."
K gave a soft shrug, she didn't mind it so much honestly. She just wanted to treat the kids when it came down to it and she doubted that they would argue with the fact that they were getting cake. She'd tilt her head lightly and grin wolfishly at hearing that syre did know just a little bit. The renamon leaned slightly and rubbed the top of the blackgatomon's head.
"Well the sugar cake they had was so sweet that I couldn't even stomach a bite!"
Holly shifted back to meicoomon form before hopping onto the couch proper, k on the other hand popped it into the player, her tail swishing one way and the next.
"some action movies are fairly good, but I think some light hearted jokes would do well no?"
Another chuckle and she'd shake her head, switching the tv on and selecting the proper channels. It wouldn't be long till she was sitting down on the couch alongside her daughter, if the other two cats followed suit well.. The movie would start in short order.
About ninety or so minutes passed, the light hearted movie managing to get some chuckles from k and a full on laughing fit from the youngest of the four. It was a pleasant watch and k wouldn't of spent it any other way. She'd stretch a little once the credits started to roll before gently looking towards a time piece. It was closer to midday now, something that meant they could either go for an early lunch or perhaps wait a little longer for lunch proper to come around.
"Hmm... Now what to do..."
K flicked her ears some and mulled it over. Holly was still reading the credits and mumbling to herself about how she didn't recognize any of the actors in it. Just who was adam saltines? Holly turned her head slightly and grinned toothily.
"Maybe we could play some games? Or... well. There's a bunch of stuff around the library we could do right?"

They were finally able to get through a film.
No distractions, no diversions, no otherworldly spirits calling them to climb the nearest mountain: just some good ol' family fun and a boisterously laughing Holly to fill out the duller parts of the film. It was calm, it was nice, and despite fears it might have been distracting, the medium that K picked was relaxing enough that no-one felt like they had to keep their eyes glued to the screen. And as the clock rolled past noon, as K mulled over what to do, Mikemon took the chance to stand up and stretch out his arms and back.
Holly was quick on the take. Some games?
"Eh, sure. Been a while since we've done that as a family, too." And really, it was just an excuse and a distraction for them to be able to talk!
"Well, of course, you're for it, Syre. You're our little card shark. Let's see... UNO, Euchre.... something along those lines?"
"Whatever works. UNO's at least better with more than two people, anyway... and-when-you're-not-playing-in-some-dingy-bar..."
What was that? Mikemon couldn't quite make out that muttering, simply rolling his eyes as he pulled a few different decks of cards out.

K was glad that they could finally get through a film together.
Even if the distractions were normally welcome in some semblance or another, or some were difficult and damning... Well It was nice that she could spend this time with her family, grinning ear to ear at holly's fits of laughter. It was something that eased the suffering, eased the pain. She'd close her eyes and sigh sweetly; she could of gone for more of this. It was just simply nice...
K's ears flicked forward and there was a small somewhat cheerful grin on her face as the idea of playing some games with one another was in fact.. Hook-lined-sinkered so to speak. K was rather good at games, Holly not so much, From what she could remember of mikemon he had a good poker face... and well with syre she actually didn't know too well past the fact that the poor blackgatomon couldn't beat her at chess.
"It's been a long time since I've been able to just sit down and play a game with family."
K stretched a little bit, holly shifted so that she was a touch more away from her mother so that they could be 'spread out' in some sense. But she was ready to spring into action if her ma needed help. There was an odd flick of her ear and the meicoomon turned to see Jade hovering down the stairs.
"We've exhausted the resources present. We'll be moving into the proper portion of the library for further study."
"All right just... don't go too crazy."
"Nonsense, we've only managed to locate an additional six research venues and about a dozen information brackets that weren't present before. With any luck we'll have more to go off of in the main study."
The little orbs dipped in a nod to the family before hovering away.. down the hall and hopefully out of their hair for a while. Holly let out an exasperated little sigh and shook her head.
"Once she gets going she gets going... Just like me I suppose!"

It had been quite a while since they had a chance to sit down like this. K with the knights, Mikemon with his patients, Syre with her missions... for them to sit still and do anything like this took a bit of planning. It was rare that they could just hop on in for a family game, and yet here they were: splitting a fresh bowl of popcorn as they decided what game to play.
... Which ended up being UNO, to Syre's slight disappointment. She would have preferred something more elaborate, like Euchre, but that would mean that whoever was across from Holly would be at somewhat of a disadvantage for having her as a partner. Nah, better to have a somewhat-skilled game where someone could still win through blind luck! Though they were met with a momentary distraction as Jade gave a status update: time to raid the library for text.
"Just be sure to put it back when you're done..."
The cat shook his head, chuckling a bit at Holly's comment, as he dealt out the cards. A nice excuse to finally talk as a family - and even get through the rougher bits. "Sorry you had to have such a rough morning, hun. First time I've been flung off a couch like that..."
"Call this a hand..." Syre was forced to draw one on her first turn, the cat shaking her head. "Um, but yeah. What are you and dad planning for the next few days?"

K wasn't surprised that it ended up being uno rather than something more elaborate, it'd do well and they'd be able to at least talk more about other stuff rather than focusing entirely on the game itself. The renamon would look over her hand and after a moment tossed a green two right above the red two. She'd scratch at her neck thoughtfully, noting the orb as it hovered away.
"Of course Doctor."
Holly stretched and looked over her hand, huffing a bit as she had to draw one as well. She'd give it a firm shake of the head, looking over her hand some more before shrugging. K on the other hand let out a soft somewhat displeased sigh.
"Trust me that wasn't intentional... I'm grateful that it got sorted out quickly."
K's ears flicked and holly blinked at the question that the other daughter poised to her ma. K drummed her hands on the table and looked to their father for a moment.
"Do what we can I suppose. A date at the place we first went to, a flight, maybe not me flying us there but.. One non the less. Some soft time with you two is expected I imagine. Don't worry it won't just be today that you'll get pieces of."
There was a strange thought that occured to her, that Syre had for the larger part of her life... Didn't seem to see her parents together all too often. It was frustrating that it was like that, one or the other. Rarely both as they were just so gosh darned busy. After that whole library incident along with a few other notable things well... K had been much better about coming home.
"I probably will spend most of the day before the surgery resting or at home I imagine. Depends on how things are."
Holly blinked and flicked her ears, biting a lip as she realized that she probably would be helping out with that. She'd shoot her da a look and lean slightly to whisper at him.
"Am I going to be helping with that?"

"... But there will be at least a day or two spent where your mother and I can live our romance."
The cat gave a smile, leaving it at that much, flicking a card from his hand onto the pile without much thought. The game would go like that for a while, the deck played rather normally while Syre kept close attention at the discard pile, looking for trends and patterns in the others' hands.
This was the last full day that K would be spending around the Library until the day of. The Renamon had the right idea about the day before, though the cat corrected it a bit: "Oh, you'll definitely be in starting at noon, just so we can have you for observation. We'll, um, discuss it more when we get to it." As Syre would make Holly draw two, Mikemon would listen to the Meicoomon's question, and shake his head.
"Dr. Cross and Stingmon are going to be my assistants. If you're interested, I'll get you a copy of the notes and log afterwards."
