"Yes, yes it is." Seriously, she was even shorter than Akemi. That felt embarrassing in and of itself, did it not? While Elsie's way of saying small in her next sentence was pretty striking to Shizu (in that she had never heard of the term 'smol' before), she opted to ignore the fact Elsie said things rather than people. "Does that mean you're also cute? Because I think that's the case here too." ...Nevermind the fact that Elsie was actually a fair bit taller than she was. Or the fact she was red in the face.
Seriously, a girl called her cute. Her reaction to that was pretty justified. Though, regarding the fat bean? "Yes, absolutely. There's no other reason she'd pick a disguise with pink hair." And... "Yes, like being a twin." Shizu was about to elaborate a bit more before Pizzamon had returned to traumatize the girls further with his god-awful war crime of a voice.
It was honestly a bit hard to focus on food when there was an eldritch horror serving the food. How did this even find it's way into Deeplane? Shizu quietly whispered, "Me too." towards Elsie. Trauma. Trauma in it's most raw form.
Thankfully, Pizzamon scuttled within seconds after setting down the pizza and the drinks. Well, now or never. She took up a slice of pizza, waiting for Elsie to do the same, before she bit into it. Surprisingly, the pizza was good. Really good. Really goddamn good. Didn't seem like it was poisoned or anything, but...it was seriously tantalizingly delicious pizza. She bit off a chunk of it, swallowed, and washed that down with some soda.
"H-How was it?" She asked the blonde.

Hopefully, Elsie's way of talking about the 'smol things' was more charming than agitating! It seemed almost like she didn't even notice how she had said small. Which, probably wouldn't be too surprising to someone who knew her better. The blonde was a little odd in a lot of ways! But, should she try to keep the oddness less obvious on this pizza-date?
Probably not, considering Elsie didn't even realize she was abnormal sometimes.
But, Shizu knew how to leave the blonde speechless for at least a few seconds! Was Elsie cute? Was Elsie smol? This was something that the girl needed to ponder deeply. For about five seconds. Anything longer would be overdoing it! The girl tapped a finger to her cheek, "I," she paused, questionably, "maybe?" Maybe seemed like a good option.
And a good time for full understanding of the implication to set in. "Oh!" And there was the blushing! She was totally just called cute! And, slow to the uptake. "Thanks!" Was that a thank-able statement? Now it was.
Now that that was established, along with that Shizu had indeed inquired about twin-dom, they were to be interrupted by pizza! Which was nothing to complain about, really! Aside from the horrific thing that served it, of course. And once he was gone, it was safe to try the food!
Once she was positive that Shizu wasn't going to fake out at the last second, Elsie would take a bite of the pizza. And then, pause. There was a short silence while she mulled over her opinion of the pizza. This was way too good to be made by Pizzamon. How did someone even make a pizza this delicious? Could she steal the recipe from him? After all, there was no way she was going to just try to ask for it. One thing was certain, though. She needed it!
After properly chewing the piece and swallowing, the red-eyed girl stared at the slice for another moment before answering. "This is so good." Then added, notably more quietly, "how's something so creepy make something so good?" She would probably never know the answer!
"What do you think?" Would Shizu horribly disagree? Was the pizza disgusting in the dark-haired girl's mind? Could Elsie ever forgive her, if it was? ...Considering who made it, actually, Elsie could totally forgive someone for not being willing to accept the pizza. But, at least it was good in the blonde's eyes!
Then, once the answer was given, they could go back to a prior topic that Elsie had left unanswered! "But, the twin thing," she commented, taking another bite of pizza, and a sip of soda before continuing. Even Elsie wasn't going to be rude enough to chew and talk at the same time! "It's got its perks and it's bad sides," she commented, with a shrug. "I mean, I dunno anything different." Very valid. The twins didn't have any other siblings for comparisons, after all! "It's kinda like, you've got an extension of yourself. But they sass you sometimes. And do your homework." The last part was definitely a bonus. Elsie couldn't do homework to save her life! Mostly, because she always forgot about it immediately after it was assigned.
"It can kinda suck, though," she added, after another bite of pizza, "'Cause people think identical twins are supposed to be identical-identical. But that's like bein' those little kids out of The Shining, and it's really funny to do it once, but just weird to repeat, you know?" And then? "But if you're too different, you're cliche, and it's a lot of effort." Maybe that was a bit more in-depth than Shizu was looking for! Or, maybe not. "Or you find out your sister's better at tripping people in the halls, and 'cause you look less 'nice,' the tripped person doesn't believe you when you tell them you didn't do it." Personal experience? With Evie? Never. Evie was way too nice to trip people!
Moral of the story? "I like it, though. I wouldn't wanna not have a twin." Then, there was a small, thoughtful pause. "Can you imagine being, like, an only child? That's gotta be boring." Pause again. "I mean. Unless you wanna be an only child." But, again, that would be boring. And Shizu totally didn't want to kill Akemi or something to attain that, right? Right. Shizu seemed entirely sane! Then again, maybe being a murderer wouldn't be so boring. Oh no, she was thinking way too far into this! This was why Elsie wasn't allowed to watch shows about murderers!
"So!" Change the subject! Do it quick! No murders! Just! Things! "Since you're like. In the Digital World and all. Are you just here 'cause the bean and the sister, or because you do Digimon-type things too?" Was that the best way to ask if someone was a tamer/spirit user/whatever-the-other-things-were? Probably not! But, some people might find it a sensitive subject, if they weren't chosen! Elsie didn't know!

"Let's go with definitely, then, okay?" Shizu put on the most suave smile she could. That was probably the only followup she could think of when put in a situation where she pretty much got called cute and could only reply by firing back. She had to pretty much press the attack, to put it simply. "I guess I should thank you, too." If there were any doubt that that wasn't a thankable statement?
Let it be doused.
There was probably a lot of doubt about the concoctions of the ones they call Pizzamon, but really, who wouldn't expect something with Pizza in it's name to make something that was actually a delicacy within the Dark Area? Shizu herself needed a few moments to PROPERLY assess the pizza, but she nodded. "It...It's a lot better than I was expecting it to be...I don't know how, honestly. Maybe it's...kind of like how Burgamon can just make really good burgers?" Pizzamon could in turn end up making disturbingly good pizza.
Finally, they went back to the topic left unanswered prior. Twins. Shizu took a sip of her soda while she prepared herself to listen to Elsie's...woes on being a twin. Woes? Well, more like simple experiences. They weren't woes. Thus far, it was like having an older sister that was exactly your age.
"Nobody's meant to be truly identical...I guess you need to find a balance between similar and different, then." Probably, councilwoman obvious. She blinked at the bit regarding tripping people in the halls, though. "Did...Did that happen?" Shizu asked, quietly before allowing Elsie to continue.
"Some people prefer being an only child, I...don't know why, honestly. Or why anyone would -want- that. It seems more lonely than anything." And boring. Even if you didn't have any younger or older siblings messing with you, you still gained something unique and irreplaceable with siblings.
Elsie fired a pretty good question to her, though. What did she do here? Why? "Well...Initially it was just because of the bean and Akemi. Their business sometimes intersects with picking me up from school. Then I found..." She reached down to her skirt to pull free a rather...curious D-Tector.
"This." A significant portion of it was onyx black, yet from the border of the screen outwards, it seemed to be flaking or chipping off to reveal an off-white interior. "So, I guess I do do Digimon-type stuff too. Even if it's trying to find the pieces of a spirit that's...a bit different? I think?" Shizu stared at the digivice. She wasn't sure...

Shizu's attack had been super effective! Probably, at least. "Deal," the teen commented, with a much less suave smile. Elsie, suave? Not a chance. She could dream, though! But, it should be a good indication that she shouldn't be nervous about saying anything else that came to mind, right? Not that there was much going on in the blonde's head at the moment!
Except terrifying monsters made of pizza, who simultaneously made delicious pizza!
Listening to Shizu's input on the pizza, Elsie took another bite. "Y'know," she commented, after swallowing the piece. "I've never had a burger from a Burgamon." Really? Someone like Elsie hadn't tried a Burgamon burger? ...Okay, maybe it wasn't all that surprising! There were a lot of other places to eat in the Digital World! It was probably understandable that she hadn't thought that the burgers would be anything special!
As far as being a twin went, though, it probably really did boil down to just another semi-regular sibling-type experience. Except the part where the other person was a walking mirror! Unless they actively tried not to be, that was. It was likely inevitable that the twins would fall into some sort of 'expected' personalities, though, right? Or, people would think that! "It might have," the girl commented, lowly, while poking at the straw in her cup, "...a couple times." But, only maybe. She wouldn't outright admit to that! Even though it was extremely obvious based on her response!
At least the girls were definitely on the same page about only children! "Right?" If Elsie was an only child, she might actually need to have close friends! Ugh! "I don't think I could survive without my sister," she added, offhandedly. Which probably sounded like a pretty average statement, when one ignored that sibling rivalry seemed more common than sibling love! But, for a second, Elsie realized that it was actually very likely to be accurate. But, Elsie also wasn't the type to get too deep into that sort of thing. So that realization lasted about three seconds.
Once the next topic was unveiled, along with quite the interesting D-Tector, Elsie seemed to perk up notably more than before. Now, she was leaning onto the table -- while trying to avoid leaning into a pizza -- to try to get a closer look. Where was the logic in just asking to see it up-close, when you could squish your ribcage on a table? "I think it needs a new paintjob," she commented, after blinking at the device. Could digivices be painted? She didn't see why not! Though, it really looked like it needed more than just paint.
"I totally do the spirit thing, too!" Common-ground! Not that they didn't already have any of that, but the more things in common, the better, right? Unless it erred on creepy-stalker levels of similarity. Then it wouldn't be better at all! Either way, after a shuffle, the girl pulled her own D-Tector out, in its very-cherry-colored glory. It seemed notably more detailed, with its gold trims, and black decals. And, a strong lack of damage to the device. Not that crackled digivices weren't detailed! But, Elsie had this feeling that it wasn't really intentional. Or was it? Digivices were weird.
"What do you mean by different, though?"

As it turns out, the Amaya charisma was not something that just came and went with Shizu, it was something she could tap into on a regular basis when she was well aware of what was going on at this very moment. Of course, she couldn't dismiss the fact that Elsie was absolutely precious, though.
There was something reassuring about that, truthfully. Helped her keep her wits about her when confronted with the pizza-based monstrosity. While Shizu ate, she overheard a particularly striking comment from Elsie. Striking in that it was...Uh. Kinda funny. She swallowed her bite of pizza.
"Well, it's a pretty good burger from what I've heard. I've only had food made by EbiBurgamon, but...that specific one probably hates my guts now." She commented, flatly. At least that's what Shizu thought.
She did rip that poor kid's ey-...That's distinctly un-Valentines. Naw. Let us not dwell on this. Having listened intently to Elsie's experiences on being a twin, she snickered in amusement at her response to that question. A few times? "On purpose? Orrr...?" On accident? "That's okay. I...don't think I'd be able to without mine, either. She's a lot smarter than she gives herself credit for." And that was likely the nicest thing Shizu had to say about Akemi for now.
On the subject of the spirit thing, however!
"Would you believe me if I told you it...'s been doing this ever since I got my first actual spirit? Because it used to be pitch black." Shizu moved the D-Tector closer to Elsie so she could get a closer look without squishing her ribs on the table. "Different as in..." Okay, how do you explain this...
"The spirit's got a bunch of characteristics that line up with some Digimon my sister saw on a mission a while ago. The first time I even used it, I ended up going nuts and trying to tear the people I was with apart, apparently. ...It's got a -huge- force of will despite not seeming to have any actual...sapience, I guess? I think that'll change the more totems I find, though..."
She was having a tough time here. Please bear with her.

Elsie took Shizu's storytime about EbiBurgamon (as short as that story was), as a good opportunity to eat her pizza. Whether or not Shizu had wanted to open this can of worms, it looked like the blonde had full intent to! "What'd you do to make 'em hate you?" Shizu looked so innocent, after all! And tiny! How could any burger-based Digimon hate on someone like that?
Valentines was a great time to be romantic and tell stories about heavily injuring others, right?
Or, just tormenting them like a certain somebody did on more-than occasion. "I mean," the red-eyed teen started, while glancing at the ceiling, "how many times do you have to do a thing to make it stop bein' called an accident?" Very good question! Because, if anyone ever asked, it was totally an accident! Even if it might not have actually been! On a more valentine-friendly note, Elsie decided to leave out any comments on how Akemi might come off as smarter if she left The Bean at home. Then again, any trips to the digital world without Anzu would certainly be far from smart for the tamer!
Not that Akemi was the focus here at all. The blonde was far more interested in the person in front of her. Good thing, too, since it would be pretty rude otherwise. But, she did have to admit that this digivice thing was taking a lot of her interest for the moment! It was such a relief that the other spirit user was giving her a better view of the device, though. Very literal relief! There was a not-so-subtle inhale, as the teen was able to stop leaning against the table and properly get a breath. And here she had just been thinking about how Anzu didn't seem very smart. Jeez. Elsie wasn't much different, if she didn't even focus on oxygen instead of paint!
Reaching out, the teen tried to poke at the paint, to see if any of it would come off at a touch or rub. Then again, maybe she really shouldn't try to make it look worse than it already did! "Maybe someone tried to paint if b'fore you got it?" Unlikely but, hey, people and digimon did some awfully weird things.
Like take control of their hosts and go crazy, apparently. Well, then! Maybe it was ill-advised of Elsie to ever get on the younger Amaya's bad side! Leaning back into the booth seat, the blonde squinted, while crossing her arms. "You think it'll get better, or worse though?" After all, Shizu didn't specify.
Good thing, for some reason, most of the world associated 'crazy' with attractive when it came to females!

See, this was where storytelling became more...difficult. Not quite poggers. "My first time spirit evolving ended up turning...a bit violent. So...yeah." What Shizu had neglected to explain was that she hadn't seen the EbiBurgamon since then, but what had stuck with her was that...look on his face.
Just...anger. Pure anger and fear melded in one single look.
That's the kind of stuff that sticks with people.
But that was still a good question. How many times did you have to do something in order for the classification of an accident to just...not be a thing? "...More than once." Shizu ultimately decided. That was probably the best way to put it? But she didn't...know if that would be a problem this time.
Truth be told, she hadn't tried again. Not since the first time. There was no point in dwelling upon the past, though. Not right now. Elsie seemed quite invested in this story, so Shizu felt some amount of obligation to try seeing this through to the end. Else? She'd be a shitty date.
Nobody wanted that.
"Oh, nononono, it started getting like this after I got the first spirit. Other than it...looking bad, I guess it works just fine?" Because it really did. Shizuka's eyes widened as she realized she forgotten something important. Clarification. She took a sip of her drink before she decided to throw her guess out there.
"My hope is that it gets...better. That whatever Digimon's in here starts...getting smarter. I don't necessarily enjoy having to be scared of whether or not using this is going to drive me nuts or not, you know...?" As she trailed off, Shizu got a genius idea.
"What about your spirit stuff? Tell me about it."

Violent? The blonde shuffled a bit in her seat. There was a moment of processing, before her mouth opened in an, "oh." Sure, Elsie was dense, but she wasn't that dense. It was pretty obvious where this was going! Then again, the denseness could only give so much. After a suspicious glance around the pizza joint, she leaned over the table and loudly whispered, "did you murder an EbiBurgamon?" Ah, yes. Because someone could definitely hate you while they were dead. And, no, Elsie did not even begin to think about the concept of the burger digimon reincarnating and then hating Shizu!
In line with violence and all those not-so-nice things, the teen relaxed in her seat a bit before coming to an informed answer to the inquiry on accidents versus intentional tripping of mere mortals. "Oh. Yeah. Totally on purpose, then," she confirmed. A couple was more than once. So was seven-or-so. Not that Elsie really kept count or anything! "Never trust the innocent ones!" Important advice to impart!
...Especially to a person who looked awfully innocent!
Granted, her digivice sure didn't! Despite the concern just moments prior, Elsie couldn't help but attempt to subtly stick one of her fingernails between the layers of 'paint' on the digivice, to see if any would chip off. "Maybe the digivice symbolizes somethin'?" This was more of Evie's territory, admittedly. "Like, layers being a metaphor for," there was a pause, while the red-eyed ten mulled, "something." Ah, yes, so definitive. So smart. So impressive. Elsie was getting brownie points for this assessment, for sure.
"Have you considered, like," considering the total genius statement Elsie had already given, this was going to be golden as far as great ideas went, surely! Flawless! Absolutely- "maybe not letting it drive you nuts?" -Nope. Hope was lost. "What if you don't get scared of it? There's gotta be some way to control the spirits, right?" Then, an afterthought. "How'd you un-crazy when you turned into it before?" This seemed like an extremely important question!
Even though all this talk of Shizu's spirits certainly made Elsie's seem like a really lame cakewalk. "I turn into an angsty teddybear," she uttered, after taking a sip of soda. "And then Matador Scissorhands." Hopefully, her spirits had a sense of humor.
Fun fact: They didn't.
"The most vicious guys ever, let me tell you," then, there was a pause, before clarifying with, "except not really."
Considering what to discuss about her spirits, the girl's face scrunched a little, "there was like, a really weird monster in the place we got our humany spirits though. It talked to me in my head, and said some really mean stuff." Or, was it just honest 'stuff'? Elsie didn't want to think too hard on it. "It was super familiar though? Evie said it kind of made her think of-" oversharing conspiracy theories, Elsie! Rude! "Uh." Backtrack! "Some other Digimon we saw once. I forgot the name, sorry." With so many Digi-names in this Digi-world, that was plenty believable! And, Elsie didn't think she actually knew the Digimon's name anyway! Oh well!
"My spirits don't do anything though. They're super quiet. I wonder if they're dead or something." Ah, no way, the spirits might be dead? Shocking, really. "They have a theme-thing though!" Was that interesting? Probably not! "Which they totally kind of told me once in a weird feeling, and no words at all. Wait. Does that count as them being alive?"
Was this where Elsie was grasping for her spirits to have some sort of usefulness? Indescribable feelings? "Totally just as edgy as the spirits. Their 'thing' is Destruction."
Which would lead to the most obvious follow-up ever! "Do your spirits have a theme, element, type thing?"

Well, this was a pretty great time to confide in someone how you blinded one of your first friends in the world, right? There didn't seem to be any harm in telling the story, so with that in mind, Shizu thought it'd be best to make sure that one detail was clear. "I didn't kill him." She affirmed. Quite adamantly, at that.
"I...did end up causing him to go blind, though." There was the guilt. Might have been hard to tell from the fact that Shizu was also whispering, but the admission was there! That didn't really last long with Elsie's bout of sheer genius, which was met with Shizu staring at her with a level of incredulity only seen in Akemi questioning Anzu's knowledge of Dark Area politics.
"Are...Are you calling this some sort of onion...?" Shizu questioned Elsie aloud. That did not prepare her at all for what came next. While on one hand she -was- able to control herself with enough effort when making use of the Digivice, the fact remained that she would not always be able to do this. Yet the spirit was obviously an incomplete one. Pieces remained to be found.
So, while she took an opportunity to consume some more of her pizza like some kind of debatably large (but still not as large as some people) animal, Elsie detailed what precisely her spirits were and...they didn't make much sense to Shizu. Could she be blamed, though? There are quite a few strange Digimon in the world. "A teddy bear...?" She muttered. Wait.
She forgot to answer. She swallowed the piece of pizza and thought for a moment. "I...can't remember. I think someone snapped their fingers?" It was more involved than that, to be honest. Okay.
That was definitely enough interrupting poor Elsie. She had to let her finish the story. And she did, outside of an "It's okay." When Elsie could not recall the name of the Digimon in question there. "Destruction..." Shizu repeated at the end of it all. "Given my spirits seemed to be an old friend of the stranger I met...I can't quite say. But, my sister went on a mission that involved...a number of similar Digimon. Scanning them said they were said to be absolved of their 'sins.' Or forgiven. So, I guess the 'theme' if any would be that of forgiveness?"
Patently incorrect. "I think both of ours were alive at one point in the past but now...not so much. But...Why aren't they eggs?" What stopped a Spirit from passing on? "A lot of this doesn't really make sense to me based on what I already know about most of these Digimon. Except Pizzamon. I can't explain that."

Well, no murder, no foul, right? But, before she could wave her hand dismissively, there was more clarification to injury. Red eyes squinted, debating for a moment on where on a chart of 'bad' one could find blinding a person. It was probably pretty high up there, honestly. "Just, like, don't blind me too, 'kay?" Was that a fair request to make?
Probably not. Shizu wasn't actually at fault for blinding the poor burger!
Just like Elsie wasn't at fault for calling Shizu an onion! ...Okay, so maybe she actually was at fault for that. "Um," the German girl paused, lifting and lowering her index finger a few times, as if trying to tap non-existent thoughts. "Nooo?" Yes. Yes, totally an onion. Couldn't be un-seen. Couldn't be un-thought. Her date was now an onion. There went brownie points. What did onion points count for? Anything? "But, if I did, you'd be a nice onion?" Was... was that supposed to be a compliment? Oh, someone needed to help this poor girl and her dumb mouth.
After a bit of rambling about her own spirits, Shizu remembered to answer a question that Elsie had already almost forgotten she'd asked! "Like, literal snapping?" With that, she of course had to press her thumb and middle finger together, sliding into a tiny snapping sound. Hopefully, Shizu wouldn't ever need Elsie to do any snapping! It was pretty pitiful.
Could forgiveness be a theme, though? Elsie had to think on it. She supposed if something like destruction was, why couldn't forgiveness? "They must'a really done some bad shit if they're wanting to be forgiven for their sins," she commented, before taking a sip of her drink. "Did they consider trying the whole 'nailed to a cross' thing? There's like a whole book about that." Did Elsie really just... compare some digimon's desire to Jesus?
She was so going to hell.
With any luck, humans reincarnated like Digimon so that Elsie might be spared. "Never really thought 'bout it, actually," the blonde admitted. She took a bite of pizza, mulling the idea. Why didn't they move on? "Unfinished business?" Wouldn't they just reincarnate to finish that business, though? "Some goal, maybe?" Then, the girl looked at the table, scrunching her brows a bit while thinking. "I don't know what they'd get out of it though." Maybe the younger Amaya would have some idea? It didn't feel super likely.
"Pizzamon, though," she added, looking back to her date, "I don't think even scientists could figure that thing out."

It would turn out to be a fair request that had prompted a response that might or might not kill the weak. "Of course not, why would I want to blind eyes as pretty as yours, huh?" Okay, Shizu did not know WHY that came over her, but she felt like it was probably something that'd help.
Plus if it caused her date to get flustered, that'd be a funny story to tell Amelie.
"Don't those make people cry, though?" The back-and-forth that had been established was...nothing short of hilarious. Well, maybe not to anyone in the conversation proper, but at least one of the Pizzamon working the restaurant let out a guffaw. Holy shit, did these abominations have good hearing? She did give a nod to the literal snapping bit. Given she heard that exact noise during that entire experience, traumatic as that was.
Of course, Shizu couldn't help but level a stare at Elsie as she may or may not have committed blasphemy in someone that wasn't her's eyes. She had opened her mouth to respond, but words did not really emerge. Namely because her focus didn't seem all...there for a moment.
"I think what happened to that guy's a whole different situation." She finally spoke. "It might be any of those. But I think I can take a really good guess as to what yours might want." Seriously, destruction? That's just asking to blow stuff up. Nothing complex about it compared to whatever the hell the Forgiven was.
At the mention of Pizzamon, though, Shizu took a look to one. And it looked back at the girls. It was staring. Unflinching. "Can we help you?" The abomination asked of the girls. Shizu meanwhile quietly whispered something.
"That one's more smug than the other ones and I don't like it." It looked like one of those smug anime girl profile pictures you saw from some neckbeard except in Pizzamon form. And it was horrifying!

Spoiler: flirty lines always helped. Or, almost always. But, considering Elsie was blushing at the response, this was one of the times a compliment was helpful! "Hmm," the blonde gave a pensive hum, but couldn't seem to come up with a proper response. Had she been bested?
For the time being, most likely.
Would she even lose about calling her date an onion on accident? Most likely, in all honesty. "Tears of joy?" Elsie. How. In the world. Did anyone cry from joy about an onion? Please. Hearing what was almost definitely a Pizzamon laugh about the current situation would only brighten the blush on the teen's face. She was so losing the conversation about onions, that totally wasn't supposed to be a conversation about onions. "Does... anything else have layers? Like, things that don't make people cry?" It was looking pretty unlikely. "Roses have layers? Of petals?" That was a bit of a stretch, but maybe Shizu would accept it as a less offensive layered product!
Maybe the teen should just crawl under the table and cry. Especially if she realized how grave a sin she'd just committed by snapping.
But, she was at least out of her own crisis enough to establish that, just maybe, something wasn't quite right about her date for a moment. Deciding to give it a moment before asking, the red-eyed teen would take another sip of her drink. And, just as she was finished and about to check on the younger Amaya's mental state, the girl started talking!
"Maybe," the spirit user gave a shrug. Yeah, hers was fairly obvious though! "Dunno why mine wouldn't just, like, reincarnate and use their own bodies if they're wanting to destruct stuff, you know?" Ah, yes. 'Destruct stuff.' "Maybe you'll find out more about yours when you get more totem things." One could hope! Probably.
That was a little hard to say.
Slowly, Elsie would look to the soon-to-be-offending Pizzamon, before listening to Shizu's whisper. Did he seem more smug? Probably. These Pizzamons were kind of all terrible in their own ways, weren't they? "Do you think he's the one who laughed earlier?" Maybe. Maybe he wasn't. But that just meant there would be two offensive Pizzamons, if he weren't!
"Why are they so weird?"
Ah yes. Keep whispering about the Pizzamon staring at you. That's totally normal. Surely they couldn't hear anything or be offended by it, right?

Aha, she had elicited a blush! Shizu couldn't help but actually giggle at that. "How do onions cause those...?" She found herself asking as the giggling sort of increased in volume a little before Shizu had managed to calm herself once more. "Maybe from a certain point of view, but they do look layered..."
She did have to stop and consider what Elsie was saying, though. Yes, this was sort of like fitting the world's worst puzzle together. The more pieces you held, the more information you potentially held in hand. That was what was important.
And the pieces were out there, weren't they? The Pizzamon meanwhile continued to stare like the abominations they were, and at that point? Shizu felt like whispering too. "I don't know. Maybe that's just how digital evolution left them. They were too inferior to be regular Burgamon so they just turned into Pizzas instead."
Of course.
Pizzamon no. 2, also known as Larry the Butcher, quietly pulled out a pizza cutter that looked pretty sharpened. "Better shaddap before I cut up." He stated, with a candid nod and a smile on his hideous Pizzamon visage.
"...Did he just pull a knife in a restaurant?" Shizu asked out loud. What? WHAT?
