Another day begins and Miyu gets ready once again to start her routine, she got extremely use to be in the human world almost forgetting about the crazy adventures she had on the digital world, and to be honest after everything that happen the last time she was there, the girl had enough reasons to just run away and not look back for a while, she wanted to have a normal life and feel safe, sooner or later the call for adventure will knock on her door again but until then, what's wrong with enjoying one's time?
Miyu has been working hard selling her food lately so much so that she manage to get a small cart to transport it and selling it on the park, much better and confortable that throwing everything on her scooter and use that as her "food stand" and just for the laughs in said cart she make a quick doodle of a Tanemon, for others just a random doodle of probably a mascot, for those that know an invitation for food and chat about the digital world!
As always the Chinese girl was followed by her friend and partner Bloom, although unlike other times she was not hiding like a potted plant but using a Holo-Suit, said holo suit made her look like a small girl with short black hair, wearing a yellow and pink kimono, while using this Holo-suit the plant digimon preferred to be referred as "Sumire" not only it was a more human sounding name than Bloom but also it was the name of a flower and it meant love, serenity and bliss.
Once the two grils reach their usual spot in the park Miyu gave her friend a small bell to ring it and get the attention of some people while she prepared the baskets of snacks to sell, "I can already feel it's going to be a nice day!" The girl thought for herself

Another day, another play session that had ended with someone of the trio of partners almost being knocked through a wall of their appartment, no doubt waking up the neighbours trying to have a nap.
Not wanting to get into further trouble with the landlady that day, both Carlos and his two partners swiftly exited out of the appartment complex, taking off without a particular destination in mind, eventually ending up in the Miyashita park by happenstance. Besides his unnatural white colored hair and the rather conspicuous looking black cat lazily sprawled on top of the man's head, there was nothing particularly outstanding looking about the young man Carlos' as he made his way around the park. He was wearing a black vest, blue jeans and his practically inseparable sunglasses that he seemed to wear regardless of climate.
Dio hadn't bothered with much, seeing as his black cat holosuit didn't really need much else to look presentable, while the also white haired holosuit Gio wore had a rather simple looking red sweater. Really there was no reason for anyone to think of them as anything other than two relatives and their pet cat taking a quiet stroll through the park.
It didn't last long as they heard a distinct ringing noise close by. As they turned to look in it's direction they would see a small scooter being pushed by familiar looking girl, though what initially caught their eye was the small creature that had been drawn on said scooter.
A tanemon. What would look like a rather unasuming cute mascot for anyone else hid a deeper meaning for anyone "in the known" like Carlos and the other two were. Though Dio didn't seem particularly impressed it.
"Really? A tanemon? Not exactly what you would call subtle..." the holosuited imp mused, before Carlos shushed him.
"Hush, cats don't talk."
Sure enough, there was little surprise in his face once he approached the girl on the scooter and met face to face with who was probably one of his closest friends.
"Miyu!" The man greeted, a warm smile on his face as he appreached the little food cart, wrapping his arms around her into a hug for a moment. "Been a while, hasn't it?" He added, his eyes finally taking notice of the girl in the kimono that was walking behind Miyu.
"Oh sorry, didn't see your friend here. Hi, name's Carlos." He said, completely oblivious to the girl's real identity, though Dio couldn't help but keep looking at the unknown girl and get an odd familiar feeling as he continued to stare at her, a sort of deja vu even.
Gio meanwhile, interpreting Carlos' hug as some sort of signal that he was allowed to follow suit, quickly got close to the chinese girl as well before wrapping his arms around her waist, shoving and nuzzling his head affectionately into her side.
"Hi! Carlos told me about you!" The white haired boy said, only letting go of her as he felt Carlos' hand grabbing a hold of his hoodie and dragging him away.
"Gio..." Carlos sighed, a mixture of embarrasment and mild annoyance in his tone before he turned back to Miyu. "Sorry he's...a bit on the exciteable side..."

A quick glance at the time on his D-Watch and the young man yawned slightly, covering his mouth. The day always seems to start like this: him, going back home from early morning exercises to get some breakfast. He stared back up at the crossing sign, waiting for it to change. He had been for almost two minutes at this point, and traffic was still blaring, showing no signs of slowing down. He, of course, wouldn’t complain; he just turned around, deciding to take the long way home.
The young man, Vergil Hoskins, formerly named Justice Tibbs, was glad that his school semester was over because now he has more time to do plenty of things, and playing some early morning basketball was one of them. He wore a red, fleece pullover hoodie with a black fleece pants, each of them with the Nike logo shown. On his feet were a pair of white and red Air Jordans on his feet. He had a habit of making himself look fancy everytime he went out, even if he was doing mundane things—It’s a part of his style.
It didn’t take long until he reached Miyashita Park, taking that way to get there since he lived three blocks away from it. As he walked, his D-Watch began to buzz on his wrist. He took a close look at it and a 2-D headshot of Vee appeared on the screen.
“Juuustiiice, are we home yet?” Vee whined. “I’m so hungry.”
“We’re almost there,” Vergil replied. He put in his earbuds, pretending that he was on the phone to avoid any eyes. “We’re like two blocks away. And I thought I told you to call me by my new name from now on.”
“Sorry, sorry. It’s still taking some time to get used to.”
Vee’s 2-D sprite was then replaced by Gummy’s, who was in the D-Watch alongside him.
“I still don’t understand why you changed your name,” Gummy commented. “I didn’t see anything wrong with your previous name.”
“It’s because I don’t want You-Know-Who to find me.” Vergil responded. “Plus since this is a new start for my life, I’d figured to just separate myself from the person that held me down for so long. Think of it like a spat in her face.”
Hearing that, it’d made sense to the twins. “Well regardless, you’ll still be known as Specs to me~” Gummy remarked in a teasing tone.
Vergil chuckled, and continued to walk through the park. He then heard a ringing noise nearby. Looking ahead, he saw a small food stand with snacks being sold. There were already two people in line, too: a dark-skinned, white haired man with a black cat on top of his head, and a small child.
Curious to see what they were selling, Vergil got in line, wanting to get a quick bite that’ll hold the three of them over before heading home to make breakfast. Though seeing as though the people in front of him new the person being the food stand, he patiently waited, going on his phone until it was his turn.

It didn't took long for some people to get closer, much to the surprise of the girl it was Carlos! One of the very few people she can actually call friend, it's amazing that she met a lot of people since she came to Japan but the amount of friends she keeps in touch or has meet more than once can be counted with one hand.
As soon as she saw him a big smile was drawn on the Chinese girl face, and gladly hug her friend back, it has been a while to be honest, last time is when Dio was in bed and seeing the cat on Carlos's head Miyu assume he was feeling better.
"Indeed it's been a while, last time we saw each other I had a potted plant with me and long hair" The girl chuckled
The girl next to the Chinese noted that cat on the man's head looking at her, of course Bloom already saw him as a cat way back when they join the digital field club but they didn't know about her new disguise, she took this chance to have some fun and looking at the cat she stick her tongue out mocking the little pet, she then look at Carlos and introduce herself
"Hello, my name is Sumire, a pleasure to meet you" She said before making a small bow, would they be able to recognize her because of her voice? Who knows, part of the fun is that they don't know
And out of nowhere the Chinese girl was hugged again, this time by a small white haired kid wearing a red hoodie, Miyu managed to give him a pat in the head before Carlos drag him away.
"Don't apologize, I know how it is, I am a hugster too after all"
As they kept talking another person came and stood behind Carlos waiting for his turn and even tho he didn't seem to be in a hurry as he was focus on his phone, "Sumire" gave Miyu a little nudge to remind the girl about why they are here, meeting friends is nice but work is work too!
"Nǐ hǎo, wǒ jiào Feng Miyu" The girl welcome the client "Welcome to my humble food stand, we have Dim Sum, several types of small snacks for a quick lunch!"
"We have a small selection but we hope you can find something you like, pork, veggies, dumplings, each basket has 3 small portions and each basket cost 300 yen"
"We also have fortune cookies if you want to see what the future waits you" Miyu wiggle her fingers and make an "uuuuh" sound to try and make it sound more "mystic" than what it actually is when mentioning the cookies

God, had it really been that long? It barely felt like yesterday since they had last seen eachother.
"Heh yeah, and I was still stuck as a private nurse for the little guy." He replied, giving the cat on top of his head a scratch in the head, which Dio received at first with some visible annoyance, but soon enough let out a satisfied purr.
As for Miyu's new companion well, maybe it was because he had grown accostumed to seing her kind blending in with the rest of the normal humans, or maybe she had that much of a recognizeable voice, but it only took him about a couple seconds before every piece finally fell in it's place as he knew who he was talking to. And soon enough he'd knew exactly what to do.
He took a step forward and gave her a hug as well, of course! "Damn. Sorry! Didn't recognize you there. Nice to see you again, Blo- I mean Sumire." He finally let go, before carefully taking a hold of the holosuited digimon resting atop his head. "Don't tell anyone, but I know someone that's been missing you a whole bunch." He said with a knowing smirk, offering Bloom to hold Dio for a bit, which earned him a moment of mild pain as he could feel the nails of the cat digging into his arm, as the black feline gave him a very annoyed glare. Besides that? Well let's just say it was clear the cat didn't seem to mind the possibility of exchanging hands for the time being if it meant being closer to "Sumire." Well, besides the fact that if anyone were to look closely, they'd find the rather surprising sight of a cat being able to blush.
As for Gio? Well he'd too repeat the hug with Bloom, but would let go of her of his own accord as soon as he saw the way Dio reacted to her. It was hard to tell if he understood whatever was going on through his brother's mind, but the smile he gave the cat certainly gave off the impression he knew enough.
"Oh right, don't think you girls met him yet." Carlos suddenly realized, before holding the white haired kid by the shoulders and turning him to face the duo, before he waved his hand around rather theatrically "Miyu, Sumire, I want you to meet Gio, Dio's brother...Yeah I know, I know." He added, guessing full well the kind of reaction his rather redundant name usually got.
"It's...a long story." There wouldn't be time to answer any of the obvious questions that they might have had however, as soon enough another client would start lining up behind Carlos, who really wasn't planning on buying anything as much as he just wanted to catch up with Miyu.
"Whoops, sorry. Go right ahead, we're not having anything." He said, moving aside so that the other man could order. This was met by a small hand tugging at the side of his shirt, and the rather forlorn look of Gio gazing at him from below.
"But I wanted some of Miyu's food too..."
"We're not having anything yet." Carlos quickly corrected himself, before kneeling next to the kid, before patting him in the head. "Come on big guy, be patient and I'll get you two of whatever you want in a bit, deal?"
This seemed to quickly cheer up the holosuited digimon, as his defeated look was soon replaced by a bright smile. "Deal!" And amusingly enough that wouldn't be all, as the man would soon hear a rather loud and familiar meowing. He didn't even need to look back at Dio to know that he wanted some food as well. "Alright alright, waiting a bit won't kill you two."

Vergil kept to his phone, minding his own business as the party in front of him mingled with the two females being the food cart. From what he heard, it seems like they knew each other and were friends. Though the more they talked, the more he felt like getting out of line and waiting til they got home and make something to eat. If there was one thing that he would consider his pet peeve, it was oblivious people holding up the line with conversation.
Thankfully, their conversation didn't last long as the white-haired man moved aside so he can order. "Appreciate it, man." Vergil said with a nod. The woman behind the food cart greeted him in Chinese, something that surprised the young man as he didn't knew there were people of Chinese descent living in Shibuya, heck, Japan in addition.
The girl next to her presented their selection of food, all of them looking mighty tasty, and at a reasonable price too!
"Hmm, I'll take three baskets of each portion please," he said. He pulled out his wallet, giving the clerk the money. He never tried dumplings before, so it was a first time for any.
"Veggies?! Ah hell no! Give me a basket of meat!" Gummy said through his D-Watch, causing Vergil to cover it in surprise. He turned to the two females clerks, then back at the people behind him, hoping that they didn't hear that.
"Uhh, sorry, sorry. I'm on the phone with someone through my smart watch." Vergil said in an awkward tone. "Thought that I had 'em on mute."
"Soooo hungry..." Vee moaned.
Vergil smacked his D-Watch in response, shutting his two Digimon up for the moment. Now things were awkward.

Well it does seem that her voice was enough for Carlos to recognize her, too bad she wanted to keep playing fool, well at least it saves explanations, surely Carlos would know this disguise is better than the potted plant (if anything because he broke her "home"), the disguise mon was quickly to take Dio from Carlos's hands and cradle the cat like a baby in her arms
"Awwww, I miss you too! Who's a cute little kitty? Who's the cute little kitty?" Yeah, she's gonna take the chance to tease the dark lord as much as she can
"Hey, we're working, you can't be touching animals" Miyu complained, although would a holosuit be a problem? Who knows but better be sure and not risk getting some dark lord furr on the food
"Correction, you're working, I'm along for the ride" The girl smiled sticking her tongue out to her partner
Miyu sighed and just let her play with the cat, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter if she works or not, as long as she's with her here instead of going rogue in the digital world and facing god knows what kind of trouble on her own. In any case both girls look at themselves then at Gio and blink a couple of times, that certainly was not the explanation they were expecting.
"I'd love to hear that story, so is he an impmon too or?" The Chinese girl ask, honestly this was the first time she heard about digimon having siblings .
Now focusing on the client, he asked for three baskets of each portion, Miyu took a deep breath look at the sky and started making the calculations, one could easily see the girl having a bit of trouble and counting with her finger, Bloom on her side was having fun seeing her partner struggle a bit but decided to help
"He said three baskets of each portion so that makes nine baskets, three of pork, three of veggies and three of dumplings, right?" Each basket is 300 yen so three times nine is?"
"Twenty... seven?"
"Correct! just add the zeroes and you have 2700 yens" And normally that would be the end of it but much like anyone paying attention the disguised digimon did heard the voices coming from the "smart watch"
Now, neither Miyu nor Bloom are too smart when it comes to technology, but it didn't take a scientist to know there was something odd, specially for the young man's reaction, this wouldn't be the first time of the meeting other tamers in the park, this place seemed perfect for it so maybe he didn't realize they knew about digimons too and so the plant had an idea to try and see if he was a tamer with partners
"But! we can make a small discount and round it up to just 2000 yen if you can guess what is our tiny little mascot or her name" She said pointing at the Tanemon drawing on the cart, as you can see subtlety is not the plant's forte

While initially looking just a tad annoyed at his tamer and certainly a good deal embarrased (or at least, as embarrassed as a cat could look) it didn't take long for Dio to rather happily resign himself to his fate in the hands of Bloom, unable to hold back the purring any longer and resting his head against the holosuited digimon. Truth be told, there was something inherently relaxing about being held in such a manner, but he couldn't quite place his finger (paw?) on what exactly that was. All the Dark Lord knew was that he could probably stay like this all day and forget about everything else.
"Guilmon, actually. Black one too. No I don't know how that works either, besides them being part of the same digimon on a past life I think?" Carlos told Miyu, glancing back at the smiling white haired kid. Where to begin with him? Everything about his life seemed...out there. "Crazy stories all around really, he was...let's call it adopted by this rich type angel lady on Luminas, mostly kept around as a surrogate son." He'd lean in a bit closer and add in a hushed whisper, "And fighting hound. Weird stuff. I don't think I understand all the details yet, but poor guy didn't really see much of the outside world up until he met his brother so we're trying to make it up to him."
There was more to it really, but nothing he could really get into details with in such an open place. If any passerby heard any of it he would expose the entire digital monsters thing at worst, or think he was off his rocker at best. And specially not now that she had a client waiting for his order!
Though judging by the rather conspicuous voices that seemed to come out of the client's watch, and his immediate reaction, something told Carlos maybe they didn't need to be as secretive right now. Of course, before he could even react Bloom took the initiative, giving the young man a not all too subtle "invitation", for lack of a better word.
"Real smooth there, girl."
"Mister...I think the friends on your wrist are hungry..." The guilmon added, no doubt making things even more needlessly awkward for everyone. So much so the more keen eyed people would probably notice the cat on Bloom's hands just...massaging the side of his head with the most exhasperated look a cat could bear.
If it weren't for the fact they were still not one hundred percent sure on how much this guy knew, he would have gladly jumped out of the girl's arms just to slap his brother on the back of the head.

Internally, Vergil so desperately wished that none of them had heard Vee from his D-Watch. To him, it didn’t look like they knew about Digimon, so he lied, saying that it was someone he was on the line with and had accidentally left the speaker on. But it seems as though the facade was real easy to see through, especially from the child behind him. Shit...How was he gonna tell them that a hungry, digital blue dragon was talking from his watch?
Right, now he has to get his food and dash before they figure out that he was associated with Digimon. When gave his order out to the woman, he could only watch in agony as she used her fingers to count. Man...you’d think running a good cart, you’d be able to do most calculations off from the top of your head. Guess not everyone’s good at math.
Just as Vergil heard the total price of the food, he quickly went into his wallet and took out the exact amount, before the woman offered him a discount to see if could guess the mascot’s name. He looked at it, and instantly knew that it was a Digimon. Yep...they were Tamers alright.
“Hmmm...I don’t actually know to be honest,” Vergil said, scratching his chin. “But that is a cute looking mascot, I’ll give ya that.” In truth, he honestly didn’t know. He probably has Digimon's info in the beastuary on his D-Watch, but he didn’t want to risk exposing himself. “Dang, I guess I won’t be getting that disc—“
“Tanemon! It’s Tanemon!” Vee blurted out. An orange beam of data formed in front of Vergil, taking the shape of a gray scarfed Veemon before actually forming into him.
“Oh for fuck’s sake…” he muttered, facepalming.
Vee quickly took the money from Vergil’s hand and went in front of him, holding the money out to the woman. “This should be enough, right? Please tell me it is, miss. I’m starving.” His voice was energetic, but polite.
“Well I guess that cat’s out of the bag.” Gummy teased from the D-Watch, chuckling. A blue beam of light shot out from the watch, materializing into the small purple Gumdramon.
“Why did you come out?!” Vergil exclaimed.
“‘Cuz I don’t want to miss seeing that ugly mug you call a face blistering in red~” Gummy teased again.
Vergil shook his head, embarrassed. “Shut up.”

Bloom answer to Carlos's sarcastic comment with a glare, who cares if it wasn't smooth or subtle? Point was making sure this person was one of them and help him out of the awkward situation he was put in by his partners talking out of his watch. Of course Bloom smiled proudly as her idea work and she even smiled when she heard Vergil say "Cute looking" this customer sure had a good eye for beauty, even if it was on one of Miyu's childlike doodles.
What neither her nor Miyu expected was for an orange stream of data to go out of the young man's watch and turn into a V-mon, and then Bloom is supposedly the unsubtle one, Miyu happily take the money from the little digimon and give him the baskets of food, just in time for another digimon to come out from the watch for the annoyance of the tamer
"That is one hell of a phone that can literally bring the friends you were calling" The girl laughed "Fortunately for you this ain't my first time meeting people with partners that enjoy being out, so you're safe with us, please follow me~" Miyu gave a wink and started pushing her cart and walking away
After a quick walk the duo guided their friends to a somewhat secluded part of the park, behind a couple of big trees and bushes, people rarely walked by so Miyu always use this place when she meet another tamer and need private space for their partners, there was nothing too noteworthy of this place aside a big wooden crate randomly sitting in the center
"Just ignore the wooden crate, it's been there since I found this place and I can't move it on my own, but I like seeing it here, just shows that almost no one comes here otherwise it would be already move, and besides it's kind of a funny story!"
"A nice reminder of the first day we met, right?"
"Yeah, it also hold memories of other people I met, Haven't really thought about it but this place is special for us, isn't it?" The girl laughed just thinking about how many times this place was use as a hideout when she meet other people and kept their mons safe "Oh, almost forgot,, want to take the holosuit out?" She asked Bloom
The disguised plant nodded and gave the cat back to Carlos, then Miyu would bring her digivice which was hidden under her sleeve safely attached to her arm in the cradle, the Chinese girl push one button and the girl in a Kimono banish revealing a small round plant, it was definitely the doodle on the food cart, although one key difference was a small "X" on her forehead

Regardless of what the guy answered, his partners were quicker to prove the group's suspicion to be correct. The surprised silence from them was quickly broken however, as a snorting sound that quickly escalated into a full blown laughter began coming from Dio.
"Oh, this is rich!" The cat said in between cackles, barely managing to keep himself from accidentally falling from Bloom's embrace in between all the laughing. He couldn't help himself, the entire scene was too much. Carlos would have probably told him off...were it not for the fact that the white haired boy had dissapeared in all the comossion, leaving in his place a slightly taller black scaled lizard.
"Oh for fuck's sake, Gio! Really?" Carlos' snapped, grabbing a hold of Gio by the shoulder and dragging him next to Miyu's card shoving his head down so as to try (and mostly fail) to hide the guilmon so that he wouldn't be so visible if someone else happened to walk by. All while Dio laughed even harder of course.
"What? They aren't wearing any holosuits either." He complained, more confusion than anything in his voice.
"So if they jumped into the river you'd jump too? Don't answer that, it's rethorical." Gio looked up at the man, even more confused than before, but decided if Carlos told him not to answer, then it was better if he really didn't answer. Luckily for the man, Miyu was quick to guide them all to a now somewhat familiar spot of the park, away from any prying eyes and ears.
Once there, Dio would jump from Carlos' hands, a faint spark of light encroaching his form for a moment as the feline disguise faded, in his place stood a purple imp wearing a black jacket on top of the usual red gloves and bandana that were common in other impmons.
"Ah, feels nice having hands again." He said with a relieved breath, his arms stretching upwards for a moment as he made them emit a noticeable cracking sound.
"Why the cat holosuit then?" The blackguilmon that still towered above him asked, to which Dio simply gave a shrug.
"So I don't hae to walk anywhere, obviously. People are all too eager to carry you around as a cat. And you know, overflowing Dark Lord charisma and all."
Carlos rolled his eyes, mentally blocking out Dio's words before his ego blocked out the sun. He turned to face their new acquaintance, before reaching his hand out for a handshake. Now that they could forget about being seen, introductions were probably in order.
"So uh, name's Carlos by the way. These two little demons are Dio and Gio."

What went from a normal stroll at the park after a game of early morning basketball turned into an embarrassing situation for Vergil. Vee was exposed without a care in the world, gleefully giving money to the food court girl like everything was honky dory. This has never happened before. Vee was always the cautious and level-headed one, but he’d never expected the V-mon to just expose himself like that—to humans that have never seen Digimon before—all because he was hungry.
After Vee grabbed the three baskets of food, he licked his lips, ready to dine into his share of food, but not before he found himself being lifted from on top of the cart and into Vergil arms, who tried his best to hide him from any bystanders.
And to make this situation even more bizarre, the cat that belonged to the white-haired dude began crackling, making the young man jump up in surprise.
“The cat’s talkin’!?” Vergil exclaimed. His shock was taking up-to-eleven when the white-haired boy transformed into a black bipedal buff velociraptor with red marking all around its body. “What in the goddamn?!”
Seeing this clusterfuck, Gummy snorted, breaking down into a full blown laughter. “Oh man! I wish I had a camera to record this!” he said, barely managing to keep himself together.
Fortunately for the young man (and his sanity), the woman and the little girl weren’t taken aback by the sudden appearance of his parents that he was initially expecting. Instead, she laughed, saying that this wasn’t her first time seeing partners out like this. To not make a big scene and cause more commotion, she quickly guided them to a secluded part of the park, a place away from the public eye.
Vergil took a seat on the wooden crate, breathing a huge sigh of relief. He was glad that they didn’t cause a huge scene, otherwise he would have gotten his ear talked off by his boss Sophie at AEGIS HQ. That was something he did not need.
His attention was caught by Vee, who was handing him his food basket. Vergil narrowed his eyes and frowned, but took the food basket nonetheless. “Ima strangle your ass when we get back. Just letting you know now.”
“Aw c’mon Vergil! Nobody saw us, so everything’s fiiiiine.” Vee said in a causal tone, munching on a dumpling. Vergil didn’t reply and simply breathed in and out, trying his best not to smother the blue dragon.
The three then watched as the cat and the little girl's form gave away, reappearing as an Impmon wearing a black leather jacket and a small Digimon that looks like a plant sprout burgeoning from her head.
“So that’s the holo-suits in action, huh,” Vergil mused. “Never seen them before until now, only saw them in stores. Heh, could save me a lot of trouble.”
“Hmph. As if you’ll catch me wearing something that ridiculous,” Gummy said, crossing his arms. “Seems like a lazy excuse for Digimon to get coodle and become soft.” He gave a side glance towards the Impmon, letting him know that he was talking about him.
Comment aside, the white-haired man introduced himself as Carlos, offering a handshake. Vergil stood up and gave him a firm handshake, softly smiling.
“Vergil. Nice to meet you, my guy. Those two over there are Vee and Gummy.” He looked over to the woman and the plant Digimon. “Nice to know that there’s more Tamers out here.”

Honestly the girl couldn't help but laugh at the young man's reaction to Gio dropping the holosuit "What in the goddamm" such a natural reaction and then Carlos going "I if they jumped into the river you'd jump too? Don't answer that" made everything even more funny for Miyu, thankfully they reach their "secret" place without anyone noticing the digimon and just sit enjoying the meal, the Chinese girl smiled and give a little headpat to the V-mon
"Please don't strangle this cute little guy, he was hungry, you can't blame him for that!" With that said she reintroduce herself "As said before, my name is Miyu and this little plant here is Bloom"
"Hi hi! Thanks for the compliment early!" Said the Tanemon with a cheerful tone, she then walked up to Dio and try to stand on her tiptoes and touch the jacket with her front paws "Oh Where did you get this? It suits you!"
And while they were talking Miyu grab one of the buns and give it to Gio, it was definitely odd that this was Dio's brother, considering they look nothing alike and while yeah siblings can be a bit different they were day and night, both appearance wise and personality wise.
It seemed that it was going to be just a peaceful morning after the initial shock, but then the Gumdramon had to open his mouth and throw a shade that it was obviously aimed at Dio but unfortunately the little plant took it as well, puffing up her cheeks and walking up to the little hammer tail dragon the Tanemon said
"Says the one that was hiding in his partner's digivice, talk about lazy being carry around doing nothing but snark and make fun of your ta─" But before she could finish the sentence (or keep going) Miyu scoop her up and cover her mouth with one hand
"I'm sorry, she has develop a bit of an attitude lately, I promise she's really nice and sweet" Said the Chinese girl while holding the flailing potato.

Thankfully despite the surprising and sudden reveal and first impressions, the group managed to make it to the marked spot with little issue, where they all finally sat down so they could enjoy a more peaceful lunch.
"O-oh, this old thing? Carlos helped me get it from a store in Whitewater." Dio said whilst tugging at one of his sleeves, trying to distract the tiptoing potato close to him from the slight blush that came from her both noticing and complimenting his new attire. "I'm glad you liked it...not that is in any way surprising, you always had pretty good taste and uh...maybe I could show you where I got it if you want one too?"
Both luckily and unluckily for Dio his brother would soon perk up at this, interrupting his rather questionable attempts at small talk with a question of his own.
"Can I go too?"
"I...think they would rather go on their own Gio. I can take you there if you want though." Carlos quickly replied, trying to take some proverbial weight off his impmon partner's shoulders. Gio didn't seem to mind this possibility, but he soon became quiet as Miyu offered him a bun.
Things went relatively smoothly from there up until Virgil's gumdramon got a bit...let's say confrontational. Something Dio was not going to take sitting down but much to his surprise it was Bloom the first one to respond. While Miyu was quick to stop her from saying anything too harsh, it was more than enough to both encourage Dio to follow suit and for the ever growing amount of respect he held for the plant to rise even more.
"HAH! She is nice and sweet, and yet you already got on her bad side. You must have a natural talent for poor choices." He snickered, a smug smirk on his face as he shook his head at the gumdramon.
"Easy there Dio, no need to be an ass this early." The man said, not wanting to get as involved as Miyu but clearly not wanting things to escalate much further either. Even if Gio seemed more confused by his words than anything, as he leaned in closer to his marginally more mature brother and whispered,
"...does that mean we can be asses later?"
"Oh yeah, there's a shitton of us if you know where to look. We're both Shibuya's best and worst kept secret."The man then said with a smile, turning back to Virgil. "I take it you guys only started this whole Tamer thing recently? If you don't mind me asking."

Even though this wasn’t his ideal way of making first impressions, it still felt kind of nice knowing that there were other Tamers throughout Shibuya. The only other Tamers that Vergil knew were from his job at AEGIS, and they were cool, but for the most part, they were merely associates. Nothing more. Maybe it had something to do with an age gap, with him just turning twenty and the majority of the team still being in high school with the exception of Sophie. He didn’t know.
Vee was momentarily surprised by Miyu’s headpat. He didn’t expect that from a human he had just met. Thankfully, the Veemon liked this sort of pampered treatment and let her proceed with the headpats, letting out a low soothing thrum in response.
“Yeah, Vergil!” Vee said, grinning ear to ear with his mouth full. “You don’t have it in your heart to hurt little old me~” He flaunted his scarf, rubbing this moment in. Vergil frowned, but decided not to engage further. He’ll just get him when he least expects it.
With Gummy’s snide comment directed towards the Impmon, the Tanemon named Bloom reacted with such ferociousness, making the Gumdramon’s eyes widen in a bit of surprise, but smiling nonetheless. “Ohhh, feisty this morning, are we? And call it what you want, little missy. I like to watch the chaos happen from afar."
His smirk, however, would soon vanish the moment the Impmon opened his mouth, berating him. “Hmph, poor choices? Like that crummy-ass jacket you bought? Don’t talk to me about poor choices when you clearly haven’t looked in the mirror lately, you goddamn--”
Before Gummy could continue, Vergil shoved a couple of dumplings into his digimon’s mouth before things potentially escalated into a fight. He had no choice but to bite down and chew, despite the grimace on his face.
“Simmer down, little dude, and don’t let your food get cold.” Vergil said. He almost forgot how riled up the Gumdramon can. Luckly his tail didn’t burst into flames since that was usually a clear indicator that he was pissed.
He turned to Carlos, smirking. “ Heh. So all I have to do is to find someone who’s clearly not from around here, like all of us? Easy task. And no, I’ve been at this thing for a year now, around the same time I came to Japan. I’m currently studying abroad from the States. Since the semester had since let out for the summer, most of the students I came with flew back home. But for me? I chose to stay here. It ain’t like they can force me since I don’t live in the dorms.”
