Guy walks through the gates of Miyashita Park to meet up with his friends to roleplay Call of Cthulhu. After a few minutes roaming the park, he spotted them at a picnic table. Guy sat down and greeted his friends then pulled out his character sheet. The DM was an upper classman named Haruki, a Literary Arts Major, Akio who plays the doctor, and Ren the bounty hunter. Leaving Guy as the antique dealer. They had left off in a sticky situation so from the start of the game they were fully submerged in their imagination.
A few hours later and they were out of harms way in their game making it a good stopping point. “That session was invigorating!” Akio said with a raised voice.
“You guys reacted to my jabs with the utmost skill.” Haruki complimented the group.
“It was so cool when we alternated roles in battle to solve your puzzle.” Guy added.
Ren was silent but he had a grin on his face denoting that he was happy as well. Then one out of the bunch asked, “how do I look?”.
“You look good, don’t worry about it.” Guy replied.
They were all dressed up for the concert of one of their fellow classmates and it was about to start.

Unaware of the group of teenagers Hiroshi and Leroy were walking around the area. Well that is until Leroy gave in to his choatic nature and picked up a few rocks before lobbing them in several directions. Hiroshi facepalmed before he yelled "Leroy! There could have been kids around here and the younger ones tend to be fragile! What the hell were you thinking!"
Dropping the rocks Leroy waved his hands in a placating manner before, much quieter, he said "Take it easy, big bro. You know I and chaos may go hand in hand but I would never intentionally harm humans."
Hiroshi, who was still facepalming, but was much quieter as he said "I know, Leroy, but there are times when you worry me. I swear you are likely to become the death of me or get us locked in some prison or something."
Leroy then reached over placing a hand on his twin's shoulder causing Hiroshi to pull his hand away from his face looking at Leroy. Both boys were in there holosuits and looked like teenagers that in many ways wouldn't be surprising to strangers if they were total opposites. Hiroshi had chosen a holosuit that gave him an unassuming nerdy appearance while Leroy took on the appearance of one of those more muscular teenagers.
The boys soon saw a group of teens walking by looking like they were slightly older teens than the disguises Hiroshi and Leroy took. Wondering what they were up to Leroy stepped away from his twin and began following that group and, knowing his twin since they were together since before they hatched from their egg, Hiroshi followed his brother knowing Leroy for his chaotic nature. Sure Leroy wouldn't intentionally hurt humans but what if he encouraged those teens to be involved in one of his choatic shenanigans. At least Hiroshi was there to keep his twin brother in check.

Guy walked around taking in the sites, the cherry blossoms were in bloom, until he noticed a couple of kids only a few years younger than them walking behind them. And normally that wouldn’t alarm him but it’s the way one of them stared at him like he was already in his trap. Guy fell silent as he pondered what he should do. “Hey, Guy. You alright?” Ren asked concerned.
Guy hesitated before answering, he wanted to question why they were following them but didn’t want to seem mean while questioning them. So he made a plan to split up from the group when he got a chance.
“Ah, yeah. I’m fine.” He said with hesitation. Guy observed a fork in the path and knowing this park is like a maze he told his friends that he had to do something and that he would meet up with them soon. They waved as he took the opposite path. Now it was time to see if the boy was really eyeing him.

Leroy, who was ahead of Hiroshi, continued on with his twin following him but likely not as easy to spot as his muscular firey haired twin. Both brothers noticed at how the group split up with one of them seperating from his companions. This had Leroy curious as Guy's companions disappeared down the opposite path. Momentarily thoughts of chaos exited Leroy's brain replaced with curiosity causing him to follow the path Guy took with Hiroshi beginning to jog to catch up with his twin brother.
Leroy wasn't distracted by the cherry blossoms as he got a bit closer to the human he didn't know was named Guy as he said "Hey there. Is there something up in the park tonight? If that's the case neither my brother nor I were aware of this." Then remembering his slightly older brother he thought 'Crap.' Then he spun around spotting his nerdy appearing twin panting as he trotted up catching up. Reaching back and rubbing the back of his neck Leroy said "Heh. Sorry bro. I shouldn't have just took off like that."
After catching his breath Hiroshi said "It's cool. Other than having to suddenly jog there was no harm done." Looking past Leroy at Guy the disguised scaley Cutemon known as Hiroshi then said "Oh hi there."

Guy seeing one of the twins slowed his pace so they can catch up. Then the fiery head boy spoke which threw Guy off. “Yeah, a classmate of mine is in a cover band, and they are playing here tonight.” Guy said relieved to hear that’s all he wanted. He felt kind of dumb for assuming the worst.
Another teenager stepped up to the one in front of Guy. “Hey, I’m Guy.” Guy responded. “My friends and I are heading that way if you two would like to join us.” Guy said.
Guy looked down at his watch saying, “It still hasn’t started yet, so you have time to discuss it amongst yourselves. The sun was still in the process of going down so the light of the day had dimmed. Although Guy’s worries had faded, he couldn’t shake the feeling that this was an odd interaction. He wanted to learn more about the two stray kids.

Hearing that there was a cover band playing that night seemed to peak Leroy's interest as was visible with how he raised his eyebrows before he said "A live band eh? That does sound pretty cool" Then when the human introduced himself as Guy, Leroy smiled in a friendly way before he said "Name's Leroy."
Then Hiroshi, who had already recovered his stamina, looked at Guy before he said "And I'm Hiroshi. Leroy and I are twin brothers who attend high school here in Shibuya."
When Guy mentioned that the concert hadn't started so they had time to discuss things, Hiroshi grabbed Leroy's arm pulling his twin just outta Guy's earshot before they quietly whispered back and forth to each other for awhile before walking back to Guy and Hiroshi then said "Both Leroy and I are cool with seeing a concert. Thanks for giving us the chance to figure things out in private first." Neither disguised digimon seemed bothered that the sun was in the process of going down. Maybe it was the fact that they were digimon, however sorta on the strange side, and that due to that they weren't exactly afraid of humans who were naive to the existence of digimon. They were just glad that many humans seemed to be good people at least.

Guy was slightly put off at the notion his new friends were twins but Guy knew better, twins didn’t have to look alike. He just nodded his head in acceptance. Leroy and Hiroshi took a bit of time to discuss their plans out of reach from Guy’s hearing. Respecting their privacy Guy just stood there with his arm crossed focusing on the river that ran beside them.
After a moment or two the twins came back with good news. “That’s great, I hope it’s good enough to impress you. And no problem, the more the merrier.” Guy said proud to make new friends.
Guy waved his hand letting his body gesture tell Leroy and Hiroshi to follow him. Remembering what Hiroshi said that they went to school here in Shibuya and wanting to start conversation he picked up where they left off. “You boys go to school in Shibuya, huh. Well, me and my friends just started college here. So, are you from Tokyo?”

Guy seemed glad that the duo were interested in the concert and, yes, when it came to such things the phrase the more the merrier did seem to fit. After all concerts tended to be more fun with a bunch of people around. Well at least as far as Hiroshi and Leroy were concerned as they tended to be fairly extroverted.
After Guy waved his hand indicating the boys follow him Leroy briefly glanced at the river a mischievous grin spreading across the disguised furry Shoutmon's face. Catching the look on his sibling's face Hiroshi rolled his eyes and grabbed Leroy's wrist before he sternly said "Leroy, I don't know what mischievous thoughts were rolling around in that chaotic brain of yours but you should drop it right this second." The slightly older twin's tone was stern.
Then Leroy gently pulled away from Hiroshi and said "Gee, bro, you sure know how to be a buzzkill sometimes. You know I may be mischievous but I generally mean no harm."
"Yeah I know. Just telling you to not be mischievous has become an old habit by now." Hiroshi said shaking his head before looking at Guy. The brothers were following him and when the discussion when to school and where they came from the boys knew they couldn't just say they came from an alternate world inhabited by monsters and were monsters in disguise. "Yeah we go to school here in Shibuya. I thought you were likely either a high school senior or maybe a first year college student judging by how young you look." Hiroshi said not knowing how to answer the are they from Tokyo question.
Fortunately having a chaotic twin came in handy in this case as Leroy then took control of the situation as he replied "Nope we were born in Kyoto. We just moved here when we were teenagers." Coming to Shibuya frequently to attend school had seemed to be handy as they were more aware of Human World locations than some digimon learning a lot of that in school.

Guy tuned the twins out as they sounded like they were having a disagreement. The little bit he did catch was Hiroshi taking control of the situation. Which surprised Guy as Hiroshi seemed like the least aggressive of the two. Guy brushed it off and kept walking towards the concert and his other friends.
Hiroshi was right about their guide; he was a first year. It looked as though Guy had the right idea of Hiroshi being the more perceptive of the two. “I guess those glasses are getting good use.” Guy joked while flashing a smile.
After Leroy informed him that they were from Kyoto Guy starts to think that nothing was amiss. “Oh, one my friends were born there and he always saying good things.” Guy said trying to connect with the two. “Well guys, we are almost at the site. I would like to introduce you to my classmates, if that’s okay with you.” Guy asked for permission from the twins.

At Guy's joke Leroy snorted with laughter and Hiroshi chuckled before he said "They seem to be indeed. At least being nerdy isn't as demonized as it used to be some years ago."
Leroy meanwhile laughed a bit harder and playfully slapped his twin on the back but Hiroshi barely seemed phased. Probably was due to the fact that he was stronger than his appearance suggested being a disguised digimon. Also didn't hurt that Leroy didn't even hit him remotely anywhere near full strength. "Yup Hiroshi's big brain sure has come in handy even while growing up. Sure I am not stupid but if there is a flaw I can admit to is that I can be reckless and impatient. Hiroshi seems to, despite growing up with me, have somehow developed borderline saintly patience." Leroy said as he playfully pulled his twin in a headlock before messing with his twin's hair before letting go.
While Hiroshi fixed the messed up hair of his disguised form Guy mentioned one of his friends was born in Kyoto and when he mentioned wanting to introduce them to his classmates Hiroshi said "I'm okay with it." Then he turned to Leroy and asked "What about you, bro?"
"It's cool with me as well." Leroy said with a grin.

Guy joined in on the laughter, he was enjoying their company more than he had expected. “Yeah, that true. I can be considered a little nerdy myself. We just finished a session of Call of Cthulhu just before meeting you.” Guy responded to Hiroshi’s comment on nerds being demonized.
Guy had a better understanding of the twins after Leroy’s explanation of their past. Leroy was the impulsive one while Hiroshi is the calm thinker. “I’m sure you guys get along great. I have no siblings, so it was hard to navigate the world without a partner. I had to make friends to feel that void.” Guy explained.
The newly made acquaintances came to a joining of paths meaning they could find his friends. By the way the parallel path works the path that his friends took was shorter, so they should look ahead to find them. Guy pulled out his phone and called Ren, he gave good direction to where they were.

"No harm in a little roleplaying as it allows for being able to escape the reality of the world and be play as someone else for awhile. I can see how that got so popular even among some of the not so obviously nerdy types. Sort of like how video games have something for everyone as well." Hiroshi said.
When Guy mentioned not having any siblings and how hard it was navigating the void alone, Leroy said "I don't think I could fathom being alone seeing as I've had Hiroshi as my proverbial partner in crime since before I was born. Despite how different we are in many ways we are practically inseparable."
"Partner in crime?" Hiroshi stated with a light hearted chuckle before he said "More like the logical one that acts as a balance to the chaos you seem to represent." Then, to Guy, Hiroshi said "Don't get me wrong. He is hard work to live with sometimes but, as you probably can expect, has good points too."
"At least when I loose my temper you seem to have the magic touch needed to calm me down. Though I don't know how you stay so calm and can settle me down without throwing a punch." Leroy said shaking his head and chuckling. Meanwhile Guy had pulled out his phone and was clearly contacting one of his friends giving out directions.

After Guy got off the phone, he resumed the conversation with, “Escape is right. When I roleplay, I don’t feel the pressure of my mom and dad, and it seems like the obstacles that college bring don’t matter for a moment. Becoming mainstream just means more worlds to explore. And Leroy, that sounds amazing. You guys make me want a little brother even more. I can see you are good for each other, and I know this within minutes of getting to know you. I hope you stay having each other’s back especially in this crazy world.” He pointed to his group, spotting them across the way even through the growing crowd.
As soon as got to his friends he started their introductions. “These are my two oldest friends, Haruki and Ren. Guys this is Leroy and Hiroshi.” Haruki and Ren both greeted the newcomers by raising their hands, at least acknowledging them. “Have you ever been swimming with a Deep One… Not fun dudes, not fun.” Haruki said his mind was still in dungeon master mode.

Leroy chuckled and seemed to begin shyly to rub the back of his neck as Guy brought up wishing he had a little brother before the disguised furry Shoutmon said "Well uh... maybe one day you'll find someone who you'll have a connection with as strong as myself and my big brother here." When he put his hand down he then said "Sure at most Hiroshi is like only a few precious moments older but you know."
"You may not have a brother but at least you have some friends so life isn't lonely for you." Hiroshi said shortly before Haruki and Ren were introduced to them. Both Haruki and Ren acknowledged the twins by raising their hand causing Hiroshi and Leroy to smile and wave in return.
"Deep One?" Leroy asked the baffled look on the chaotic twin's face was funny making Hiroshi smirk at the thought of how Leroy would probably look oddly cute given Leroy's choice of holosuit disguise was intended for him to not look like a push over to potential bullies and with him often swarming around Hiroshi most bullies left the disguised scaley Cutemon alone despite his shorter nerdy disguise.
"Must be a creature in one of the tabletop roleplaying games, Leroy. Though I can't tell which one as there are many." Hiroshi said with a hopeless looking shrug.

Guy let their words sit on his heart as they went through the motions of introducing the two to his friends. Although, he noticed two of his friends were missing. “Hey, where’s Akio go?” He asked his friends.
“Ah… well, he’s skipping out on us to study.” Ren answered.
“We tried to talk him out of it.” Replied Haruki.
“Talk him out of studying? You are a terrible friend.” Guy said laughing and slapping Haruki on the back. Turning to the twins he said, “I guess you’ll meet him some other time.”
“What grade are you two in?” Haruki, in his own way, asked their age. Ren continued to remain silent. The announcer walked on stage and started shouting sweet merriments into the mic getting the show started and getting the crowd amped for it. Guy stayed calm on the outside but if you look close enough you can see he had a slight smile.
