To think that it had only been a couple of months since Master Cookmon had sent EbiBurgamon off on his big adventure to reach adulthood, and Ebi had already made three wonderful friends! Sadly, Mister Wormy didn’t stick around for long, since he had his own adventure to go to, but Miss Polty and Mister Scarab did stay to keep Ebi company. Now the three of them were in Rosewood in search of a spa, which was a place where Polty said people came to relax.
It took a while, but eventually the trio of happy friends found their spa… a Spamon, to be precise! A rare crustacean Digimon with a giant hot spring on its back. They were very lucky to find one in Rosewood of all places. This Spamon was a she, and she was apparently a mother that had come to town to visit her two Ganimon children. Despite being so massive in size, she was really nice to Ebi and his friends. “Of course you can relax in my hot spring, dears. There’s enough room for everyone.”
And so they did. Now, most hot springs in the human world were divided by gender, but Digimon had no such qualms, since nudity wasn’t such a big taboo to them. Heck, many Digimon - EbiBurgamon included - were nude on a regular basis, and the few Digimon that did wear clothes did so more as a fashion statement than any need to hide their bodies. Hence, Ebi, Polty and Scarab all got to soak in the hot spring together. The little shrimp burger in particular was quite enjoying this new experience, smiling contently as he submerged himself neck-deep into the steamy waters. “Ahhhh… It’s so warm~”

Scarab wasn't sure what sort of luck was at the side of the trio as they split up from Wormmy and went into Rosewood to find a spa. Because, believe it or not? They did find a spa. In the form of a Spamon, a giant onsen crab. This was not a joke, this was a giant crab that was here to visit her kids. And she was completely fine with letting the trio take a dip in her spring.
Scarab was, first and foremost, a bug, so he had to genuinely be careful with things like this, lest he roast himself. Then again, he was a Wormmon. Those evolved into Stingmon, who were rather known for their Hell Squeeze attack. He could prooobably handle it? Either way, the azure Wormmon submerged himself slowly into the waters, letting out a sigh. "...Hopefully it's not too warm. This is...actually pretty nice. Never been here before." ...Scarab was pretty sure he had already said this.
"Sooo...any plans for after this? Because this looks like a really quaint town. Like...Like there's a lot going on around here."

One would think that a cat such as Polty would not be made for water. Her thick fur meant that it took on a lot of water - and typically, cats hated water, due to that weight and lack of insulation! Yet, Polty wasn't all that picky of a kitty. When the three of them had been able to find a massive Spamon, who was willing to let them relax, the Meicoomon would take right to it - sinking into the warm and steamy waters with a pleased sigh...
"Now this is a nice way to unwind, after that ride..." She'd hum softly to herself; leaning back against the rocks that lined the spa itself. She'd glance over to Ebi and Scarab both, and grinned widely; asking "How're you two feeling? A nice hot soak like this is great for getting the tension out of your body, ain't it? The sort of peace that all true warriors strive for, if you ask me!"
Scarab's own question, though - the question as to what plans they had after this spa soak... Polty would think for a second, before shrugging a bit. "Iunno, if I'm honest." She'd confess; grinning a bit lopsidedly. "I'm not exactly the type of gal to worry about plans, honestly. I just go with the flow, and follow my gut, when deciding what I wanna do next! If you guys have any plans, though, I'm all ears. You're a couple of pleasant pals, I must say, after all...!"
"In the meantime, though..." Polty would allow herself to sink a little deeper; the water nearly reaching her chin, now. "... I figure that relaxing like this, we have more than enough time to just relax, and get to know each other a little more, if either of you are so inclined!"

EbiBurgamon’s wing-shaped ears twitched at Scarab’s question, and he scratched his big, bald head in thought. Oh yeah, Ebi wasn’t wearing his trademark burger-shaped hat. After all, that hat contained all of his cooking supplies and utensils, so he couldn’t afford to get it wet. “Plans…? I dunno. I just wanna hang out with you guys. Hanging out with friends is really fun!” The little Burgamon variant happily declared with a cat-like smile.
That aside, he was probably having the easiest time out of everyone adapting to the hot springs. He might have had an affinity for water due to partially being an aquatic Digimon or something. “I’m not a warrior, but this feels really nice, Miss Polty. It’s like all my tiredness has disappeared!” The kid affirmed with a nod. The mutant Meicoomon suggested that they got to know each other better. “Yes, that’s a great idea! I wanna know more about my new friends. Wait, how do we do that?” Ebi asked all curious like.

Truth be told, this was a rather relaxing stop in an adventure. "Yeah, I can imagine so. Riding a motorbike takes a fair bit of dexterity and sitting in the same place for a long period of time, doesn't it...?" He didn't miss what Polty was referencing near the end, though. Not by a long shot.
Yet, at the same time, he could sort of empathize with his companions. While he was the kind of guy who liked having some outline of a plan, that usually went out the window pretty quickly. It was how he got here, after all. "...I'm good hanging out here with you two, if I'm being honest." That was a lot for him to say, after all.
There was one question, though, one raised by the...bald Ebi. This was a very strange sight. Scarab was very uncertain as to how he'd process this. But somehow, he did it. "I think one way to do it's taking turns telling each other something about ourselves. I mean...that's how I'd do it. But I've never been put on the spot in something like this...Think that'd work?"

"Eheh; yeah," Polty would answer Scarab's question with a confirmation, nodding "Although..." She'd pause to think briefly, considering her words. "... Even when I'm possessing machinery, it tends to take the same amount of effort to actually make it move than it would for me to move around a lot and be active; whereas driving the bike manually takes less effort, but does tend to make me a bit stiff. Possessing the bike does give me finer control over it, though; so I can technically go either way, depending on whichever is more convenient to me at the time."
It seemed all three of them were in agreement about hanging out, in the spa. Grinning widely, Polty would reach out to wrap one arm around Ebi's shoulders, and then another arm around Scarab's, in a rather friendly show of camaraderie. "Eheh, sounds like we'll be chilling out, then! Hanging out is definitely fun, though."
As far as the question of how they'd get to know eachother went, though... Polty would think for a few seconds, before smiling to Scarab and Ebi both; mentioning "Taking turns like that sounds like a good idea, Scarab; though I think we should be able to ask questions to each other, too!" with a smile. "Either way, I think I'll start, hmm.."
Pausing for a second to think to herself, it'd take her a bit for her to decide on what exactly she wanted to mention about herself; there were a lot of things she could say! But... After a minute, she'd decide "I actually was inspired to get into biking by one of my favorite anime shows; and my holosuit is based on a couple of characters from that show!" Was it wise to get a holosuit based off of a character that other people would recognize? Maybe not, but maybe they'd also recognize it as just a very elaborate cosplay!

There was talk about Polty’s favorite bike, and how she often liked driving it herself as well as possessing it. Both methods sounded like they had their pros and cons, but Ebi couldn’t wrap his shiny, bald head around how a Meicoomon could even operate such a vehicle. That bike had definitely not been built for her puny size, after all. Perhaps she could Digivolve into a slightly bigger form, like other Digimon he had seen in his few travels?
Being pulled into a group hug by the overly friendly cat was certainly surprising and odd. Ebi usually enjoyed hugs, but the hot spring water had made Polty’s fur all soggy, significantly reducing its floof factor. At the end of the day, the kid didn’t mind, nodding at Scarab’s suggestion. “Well, uhm… I’ve already told you about Master Cookmon and his restaurant, so there isn’t much more to me.” The young cook said, nervously twiddling his own tiny fingers. “I’d like to learn more about Mister Scarab. Are there other Wormmon with funny colors like you? And Miss Polty, what’s anime?” Ah, Ebi… always with the deep questions!

Scarab had a rather peculiar thought pop up when Polty likened her possession of machinery to actually moving around. "...So, does this mean you can get a ton of exercise while possessing machines?" Might not have been the most tactful thing to tell a girl in the world, but it seemed like a fun question to present.
Regarding holosuits, however, Scarab had a fact he thought of as rather nifty to share about his own. "...Mine's...based off a show too, apparently? I just liked the shades on it, really." That was literally it. He then decided to focus on what Ebi had asked. "Well,there actually are. I don't know what other colorations of Wormmon might exist, but I know red ones exist. I'm the only blue one that I know of, though. Kind of leads to me being known for that--it carries onto every form of mine."
At the very least, Scarab was getting comfy.

"I'm sure there's plenty we can talk about still, Ebi!" Polty mentioned, offering the youngster a warm smile. "Have any hobbies? Things that you like to do, when you're not cooking or gathering ingredients?" She'd ask; curiously tilting her head a bit in the other's direction. Surely those two things weren't all the kiddo did, beyond eating and sleeping and whatnot, right?
At the question of what an anime is, though... "It's a type of cartoon! Usually it's used to refer to Japanese cartoons - made in a region of the Human World called Japan - but sometimes it's used to describe other Asian cartoons, from other regions that are relatively near Japan, too!" She'd explain; her eyes seeming to light up, at the notion of being able to explain something that was a huge interest for her.
Next, was Scarab's question... Which actually made her think a bit! Was possessing machines really exercise? "... I don't think it really builds any muscle; more just builds stamina, but... I think so!" She'd respond, slowly nodding. "It's certainly a work out to be driving around in my bike for long periods of time; so I wouldn't be surprised if it is a form of exercise, for me."
At Scarab's mention of his own holosuit being based off of a show, too, though... Polty's eyes would light up once more in his direction; asking "Ooh! Ooh! Can you show us?" Her excitement was almost childish, really; the way her tail pricked up and swished conveying it easily. "I bet I could guess who it is!"

Scarab and Polty debated whether possessing machinery in the most literal sense counted as physical exercise, with the latter claiming that it built stamina rather than musculature. “I bet Miss Polty could build muscles and crush watermelons too, if she worked hard enough.” Ebi interjected, quickly realizing that the ‘crushing watermelons’ part demanded some more explanation. “Oh, you see… there was a Kinkakumon who was kind of a regular at Master Cookmon’s restaurant. She usually ordered a bunch of booze. She was really muscular and had big floaty things on her chest. One day, she showed us how she can crush a watermelon between her thighs, and everyone cheered.”
After being asked to tell more about himself, the young cook sank deeper into the water in his embarrassment. “I… I don’t really have any other hobbies. Cooking is all I know… I’m sorry…” Aww, poor thing. Meanwhile, Scarab explained how there were supposedly some red Wormmon too, but he was the only blue one. “I see, so Mister Scarab is unique. I’m told that Burgamon are normally yellow and have long kitty tails, but I’m pink and have a wide fishy tail.”
Then Polty asked the blue Wormmon to show his Holosuit, and was a biiiiit more enthusiastic about it than normal, which got the little EbiBurgamon to sink deeper into the water out of fright, until half his head was submerged. Still, he was a little curious himself, so he waited to see what strange being Scarab would transform into.

"I...Ah. I think anyone can learn how to do that." Scarab nodded a few times towards Ebi, before he decided to...politely inform him of something. "Those are boobs." He flat out said, recalling earlier. "I'm pretty sure those are boobs. That being said, that Kinkakumon sounds pretty tough--which doesn't surprise me, every time I hear of either of the oni-esque Digimon, how tough they are is usually part of the description. Or how tall they are."
Aha, so possession...kind of was exercise, but not quite. Scarab seemed to understand what Polty was putting out there. Scarab didn't opt to explain what anime was because that was a subject that the cat clearly had down pat better than he did. And it...sounded like what he had expected. A form of media from the human world.
Neat.
He himself was kind of unique, sure...But Polty wanted to see his holosuit. Okay, that was a reasonable request to grant. The Wormmon climbed out of the waters, before he pulled out his holosuit and activated it, the worm quickly being replaced by a 5'7 human with shades and blonde hair. And a snazzy red outfit.
"Well? What's this from?"

"Daaaang," Polty remarked; grinning lopsidedly at the Kinkakumon's feats. "That's pretty impressive, if I do say so myself. We stan a queen up in here, amirite Scarab?" She'd question the Wormmon in question, giggling in his direction as she wondered whether he'd get the lingo. Either way, she'd glance to Ebi, adding "I dunno if I could crush watermelons with my thighs right now; I think I'm a bit too small for that... But maybe if I digivolve, I could give it a shot!" Logically, her next form was probably Meicrackmon, right? That'd probably be perfect, for watermelon crushing!
At Ebi's shame over not having any real hobbies, Polty was quick to reassure the little Rookie, patting him on the head. "Hey, it's alright, sport." She'd remark with a one-shouldered shrug, adding "Just means we oughta find you some hobbies, sometime! Doing one thing your whole life can be great, if it's something that you love to do; but variety is the spice of life! Can't go wrong, with trying new things every once in awhile!"
Maybe she could even take the time to sit Ebi down with some anime...? Having a binge night with him and Scarab sounded like it'd be a blast, in her opinion!
As Scarab climbed out of the water to put on his holosuit, though, Polty's attention would be wholly on him; brows furrowed thoughtfully. It took her a second to recognize him, but she would then snap her fingers; pointing fingerguns in the disguised worm's direction. "Char, outta Gundam, yeah?" She'd question, grinning a bit lopsidedly once more. "Don't tend to watch mecha anime quite as much; but that's a pretty dang snazzy look, on you!"
