A new Hybrid [Mikemon]

"Mm... both Silence and K have a few forms in Nature Spirits. But its not like family's a thing I check for all that often. Your mom might have largely been a Holy Beast, now that I think about it."

Mikemon didn't put too much thought into it, though. The mission reports were in, and at the very least, Holly understood that she had a lot to learn when it came to those high-stakes fights. So long as Holly understood, and tried to improve herself in it, good ol' dad wasn't going to complain.

Especially not when that lovely wolf came in! "Heh, finally up?" He chuckled, plucked right on up, hugging right around the Shutmon's shoulders. "Sorry, had to get up a little bit before you this morning. But, plus side, Holly's up, too." Enjoying the moment, he nuzzled up to her until he was set down, the cat stretching out his back.

"I'll be up in the office for a bit. Oh, Holly? Hydrate, and eat. You've been asleep for five days - its not good to keep cutting on your energy reserves to keep yourself going." Even if that's exactly what K did during her meditative period - it didn't mean it was something that should be done, even in the short term!

It wouldn't take long for two hours to come and go, and for Holly to be called up to Mikemon's office.

Nor would there seem to be much trouble with Holly slipping back down to her champion level. The orange-furred MeiCrackmon would get a scan from Mikemon's eyes, the feline giving a scratch at a notebook, noting a few sketches as well as a few numbers on his notebook.

"Unfortunately, one test like this is not going to be enough, but I will say the process looks pretty normal in my eyes." Said eyes would be briefly shut, Mikemon rubbing them briefly with the back of his gloves. "To think that's what Coal sees all the time... um, anyway, does this form feel different to you at all? I mean, from how it normally does."

"Hm... not unheard of. Actually, I'm sort of glad to know that Lily just doesn't 'vanish' when you leave that form."

That aside, it was sort of difficult to classify what Lily was. An aspect of Holly's personality? A part of her? A byproduct of Sloth's data? As his eyes normalized, Mikemon found himself giving a grin at Holly's suggestion! "If that's what she wants to do, I'll be more than happy to let you be a 'test subject' for Coal to scan! Though, just don't try and rush her with it, alright?" The cat sighed. "For one, there's more than one way to use these eyes. I use it for medical purposes, but maybe she'll use it to 'read people' or even to try and 'look through walls'. Aside from the eyes, she's also a darkness user, so maybe even just seeing through the dark would be enough for her."

"And two, well, there's still other things to figure out. Coal needs to take some eye tests to see if the strain is affecting her vision - and its highly likely that she's colorblind, in some way. Ugh..." He sighed, rolling it into a chuckle. "So much time on that, and I still need to remember Amber, too. Never thought I'd have an artsy type in the house... heh."

Well, speaking of family! "Ah, right! You should be getting into stitches and 'practical practice' now - how are those classes going? Able to make good use of your hands?"

"Oh, I've had that kind of trouble happen to me from time to time. The things you can accidentally see with these eyes... sheesh. Oh, um, Syre's watching Coal and Amber right now."

They needed that help - since Mikemon and Silence had to keep track of Holly over the past few days, after all! At Holly's next comment, the doctor gave a bit of a chuckle. "Oh, I don't mind it. Silence loves having someone around whose actually able to give good comments bout her drawings! But its more that, I don't know anything about art, and sometimes I feel like she might have gotten jealous that I was giving Coal so much attention. Seems unfounded, though. Amber's taken the big sister role up quite easily."

"... Despite practically being twins..." He sighed, shaking his head, ear flicking as he heard that Holly was behind on her classes.

"You'll have time to catch up. Gaius shouldn't be giving out many mission waivers at all right now - that usually dries up for students any time that damned wizard pops up - so you'll be able to rest up and study just fine. And as for your hands..."

Hm. Maybe Meiphemon was better for that. Mikemon held up a palm, dark tendrils of shadow dancing above them until they became like thin 'needles of thread'.

"Maybe. I guess you can't exactly do this, right?"

"Seriously? You researched the heck out of my crystal to make Jade!"

Yeah, Mikemon wasn't going to let that one slip by! He gave a small laugh, shaking his head as that thought passed. As for Holly's relation with Syre, well: "Honestly, Syre's quite the older sister to you. Might have been a bit shaky at first, but you two get along with each-other quite well! And that's exactly it, Amber and Coal have entirely separate cores."

"Its 'rare', but it also means their cores aren't reliant on each-other. They'll be less likely to have fusions, but they'll also be stronger independently."

So, 'technically' they weren't Twins, but they were certainly still twins! Mikemon's ear gave a flick as Coal slipped into the room, the doctor looking over her shoulder to see the black Renamon-X ask about desert. Holly was quick to answer, and Mikemon mulled it over. "I'd say cookies myself. We should still have oatmeal left over, right?" He'd close his paw around that dark energy, and shrug at Holly's question.

"Well, you'll want to learn how to do it with your own hands first, so you're able to picture how to shape the energy. As Coal will tell you, even with the ability to see it, precise control is a bit hard to do." He chuckled. "Like Coal here accidentally blacking out her room at 6 in the morning!"

"Honestly, the fact that you were able to make something that could feel anything close to that is astonishing in and of itself..."

Seriously - in some respects, with her own two hands, Holly figured out the basics of making golem-style Digimon, and used that to make her own assistant. Mikemon understood the theory behind it, but to execute on it and pull it off? There was a scary amount of potential sitting in Holly's head.

Even if that curiosity got her in trouble! "Well, put yourself in their shoes, Holly. Do they want to be analyzed?" The feline tilted his head. "Coal got my eyes and my underlying type, and Amber inherited some of Silence's holy energy to be able to use her light. I don't think it has to be anything more complicated than that."

And besides, Amber in particular would be too fussy to sit in a chair for that long!

As Coal came in, and as the three of them now had cookies to look forward to, Mikemon wondered if he stepped a little too far in 'making fun of' Coal's black-out incident in the morning. Despite it, the Black Renamon-X showed a fair bit of confidence in what she said next, even going as far as to make those solid shadow figures in her hands. And honestly, Mikemon was impressed!

"Non-straight shapes are hard to do with shadows. Light travels in a straight line, and shadows follow that exact shape. To have any sort of precision in curves or tendrils takes a great deal of focus, but a blade is just two straight lines."

He'd smile - and get an idea. "... Hm. How about, before I step in and help, you two try to figure it out between yourselves?"
