... ... ... ... ?

What is...?

I shouldn't... be awake...


[In the Velvet Room...]

[It's courteous of whatever's going on with Igor's plan here that Hamuko is dressed. She probably shouldn't even have a body... whatever she has going on now... did her body fall comatose without her? Did it die? If it was alive, she surely should be much older. ... ... ... Maybe that all doesn't really matter, right now. She's here, gifted a chance to be around others again. The pinboard catches her attention first, of course. Signs of other people... so many little notes, talking about multiple versions of the same person running around. That's... that's charming... that's fun. ...Even if the notes about Ken Amadas make her sad...]

Hmm... I don't see any other 'me' off the bat...

[She'll take a few minutes once given a pen and some pink paper to doodle a little version of herself, signed with her name and phone number, and add it to the corner of the pinboard.]


[Inaba, Central Shopping District]

[What a fun little town! A charming place... hey, isn't this the town she went to for the volleyball camp? She loved the accommodations, but it's so nice to actually wander the streets and see the little shops. This place is SO rural, Hamuko had never really visited a place this remote, even when jumping between foster homes.] Let's see... what's the good spot for the locals? [No point being a complete tourist shmuck!!]


[Shibuya, Underground Mall]

[Well, since nothing costs anything here... might as well get some cute new clothes, right? Who knows how long she'll be around here, and 'dreaming up' new outfits didn't seem to be a thing. No lucid dreaming here - somehow, Hamuko felt a lot happier with that in mind. Still... the fashion is so different!!]

I just want one cute orange top...!! Is orange out of style? Dang it...


[Iwatodai Dorms]

[Of all of the places she's been having fun goofing off and exploring in, the dorms... she couldn't quite get the courage to open the front. Not just yet.]

Not even Koromaru is out front right now. ...I've gotta apologize...

"I am! Good morning. You can call me Hamuko! I saw a selfie on the board in the Velvet Room earlier, but you don't look like that fellow."

[rookandhound]

"Ah. That would be... the one who goes by Phoenix, unless I'm mistaken. We haven't met, personally, but I'm given to understand he's quite an upstanding young man. I am called Rookmon, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Hamuko. I'm on an errand, at present, but if you require assistant of any sort I don't mind providing it. You're not lost, are you?"

[wipingallout]

"Not lost yet, at least! Still in the exploring phase. It's nice to meet you, Rookmon! You're amazing... you're like a living, breathing Dokemon," Hamuko admired fondly, folding her hands behind her back. "I thought I was going to be shocked enough with the scary looking demon-bird-guy, but this is incredible!"

[rookandhound]

"Dokemon... Ah! Yes, I think I remember Goro receiving one of those from his friends- the superficial similarities are not lost on me, but of course the primary difference is that while such creatures appear to be some manner of exotic pet, I and my fellow Digimon of course are as intelligent as any human- and have no master. I would, admittedly, also prefer to think of myself as distinguished, rather than frightening."

He puffed up, ever so slightly.

"You are! You look so heroic with your scarf too, and like you take good care of your feathers," Hamuko happily praised. "Mind if I tag along for a while? You seem nice!"
