Who: Takeru Takaishi (and Patamon) and you!
When: 8/1
Where: Anywhere!
What: After 3 years, Takeru is slowly trying to remember about this place and getting use to whatever Cerealia has for him! And failing to write a story too! And maybe a question to ask everyone.
Rating/Warning: Nope!

A - Making my way downtown

[It had been one weird, weird day for Takeru. After suddenly reappearing in his world, he had to wonder if everything he thought of was merely a dream. Even when he told his mom, she told him that such things didn't exist. But then again, a lot of his friends thought he was making things up. So surely, there was no way that such things like Cerealia was ever truly real right?On top of that, after a previous conversation, a part of him also had to wonder if everything back home was real too.

Either way, it didn't stop him from living the past 3 years as if nothing ever happened. After finding himself back in the Digital World and rescuing Hikari, the last thing he would ever expect was to come straight back here! However, here he was now! As soon as the familiar slide show was over, all he could do was sigh. What was a 10 year old boy to do now?

Why go around a familiarize himself with his surroundings and catching up with everyone he knew, of course! Staring straight into his CereVice, he wanted to pay close attention and see just where he was going. Too bad he wasn't looking what was actually in front of him.

One might see Takeru randomly bumping into walls, lamp posts and maybe even you too!]

B - The joys of writer's block

[After spending the some time in Cerealia, Takeru was slowly starting to get the hang of this place. And what better way for him to ease his way into this new lifestyle than for him to begin his new writing adventure here? Of course, that was a lot easier said than done.

As he sat under a tree, one could see scraps of paper around him. With a small pout, he was determined to write something! But it seems as if his muse was nowhere to be seen! If one should look at those paper, there were a bunch of stories written out! One could be a mystery that involved a missing item, another would even be about a princess, or maybe another would be about Cerealia itself!

Either way, all Takeru could do was give a loud sigh.]

You've got to be kidding me....

C - Writing on them networks

[As Takeru looked at his device, he debated if he should ask. But if it was bothering him for a while, it was probably best to ask anyway]

There's something that has been bothering me lately. I remember a long time ago, someone mentioned to me that when we go back home, there's a chance that it might not even be real.

I don't think so but its been a while since I've even been here. I'm not even sure if that's true anymore.

D - Wildcard!

[Anything goes here! If you got something else in mind, let me know! My plurk is Rosemotifs!]

[prosecutory]

Takeru? You were sent home?

[DUH, but Edgeworth just has to be sure. Takeru HAD disappeared from the colony for a while and he had to know if it wasn't just another CERES trick.]

[hopetype]

[...Wait a minute here, this person looks pretty familiar.]

Yea but it's been a long time! It's been 3 years since I've been here but...

Edgeworth-san? That is you, isn't it?

[prosecutory]

Yes, I'm still here, even though time passes strangely across worlds.

A

[givesalittlewhistle]

[To be fair, she hadn't been looking either.]

[Coming out of one of the street shops, a small bag of newly-acquired treats in hand, Hikari was in the middle of saying something to Tailmon, when she bounced into an unexpected presence:]

Ah!

[Easily the smaller of the two, she recoiled back, losing her footing, and started to fall to the ground. Tailmon, who saw everything, let out a gasp.]

Hikari!

[hopetype]

[The moment that Takeru felt something hit him, he too fell straight to the ground! While he was in pain, he wasted no time in seeing who was in front of him.]

Sorry, are you-...?

[Hey, wait a minute here. Was that...?]

H-Hikari-chan? Is that you? [But didn't he just see her a few hours ago? And why in the world was she so little??]

[givesalittlewhistle]

[She didn't recognize the voice, but when Hikari looked up...and up...and up...]

Ta...Takeru-kun?

[It was his eyes. And hair, but moreso his eyes. She stared into them and recognized the little boy who, not so long ago, she'd had to look down at in order to meet his gaze.]

...you got taller.

C

[faithfulflame]

[Well. This is not expected. But then he's grown up. People do change when they leave, and she...noticed...his absence, a few days ago.]

Well by the looks of things, you've been gone for a while by your reckoning. But we're here still. Real as ever.

[hopetype]

[Well hello there familiar person whom he knows he had met before!]

I'm starting to notice I haven't missed much since the last time I left! But it's still strange to me.

When I gone back home, I could have sworn all of this was a dream or something I might have made up.

[faithfulflame]

[That's right, it's your mature cool beauty sis.]

You haven't missed much at all. It's been maybe three days.

B

[forgeabettertomorrow]

[That sigh of exasperation was one Darin knew all too well. It was basically the anthem of his life. As he was walking buy with some lunch, he spots the kid sitting under a tree, surrounded by crumpled up papers. This drew a curious look from Darin and he stops, cocking an eyebrow.]

Having a problem getting your thoughts down on paper?

[hopetype]

[As Takeru continued to rip out pages from his notebook, he just started mumbling to himself. Maybe he should call it quits for the day, it seems like a better option than to just let his brain keep popping out bad story after another!

However, when he looked up to see how it was, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes just a bit]

Kind of. I wanted to write a story but no matter what I think of, it always turns out bad. It's really bothering me!

[forgeabettertomorrow]

Oh man, I know what that's like. I can't tell you how often I stare at one of my notebooks to try and sketch out a concept for a weapon and just wind up with a headache. It's one of the worst feelings in the world.

Inspiration's a fickle mistress.

What kind of story were you going for?

[He reaches into his bag and pulls out an apple, which he promptly takes a bite of and plops his rear down across from the boy.]

A

[notsosolo]

[It takes Han a second to realize who has just bumped into him. After all he was considerably shorter last week]

Takeru?

[Time is so kriffed up here]

[hopetype]

[If there was one person he most definitely remembered, it was Han all right! There was no way he'll ever forget somebody who took care of him!

So when he looked at who he was, he wasted no time in flashing him a quick smile!]

Han-san! There you are, I was wondering where you were! It's been a long time hasn't it?

[Well at least for Takeru]

[notsosolo]

Not as long on this end as yours.

[That's pretty obvious. You were definitely just eight.]

How long, for you?

A

[reprizesal]

[Sayo's just minding his own business when he saw someone walking right into a lamp post. That gotta hurt. He paused, mostly out of small concern. Very, very small concern.

He speak up.]

Are you okay?

[You know, this guy looks kinda familiar...]

[hopetype]

[As Takeru fell straight to the ground, he couldn't help but mumble to himself. That was probably the 3rd time he accidentally hit something! Maybe next time he should sit down somewhere...

But when he heard somebody speak up?]

Y-Yeah, I think so. Maybe walking around and talking to people wasn't a good idea...

[And yet, why does this person look so familiar?]

B!

[playboyknight]

[On his usual jog, he stops when he sees Takeru sitting under a tree. Slowly he approaches the other and stares down at him, almost studying him for a long moment. Then there's a small smile on his face, recognizing who the other is after all.]

Well well, it looks like you've gotten taller. And here I thought you'd disappeared forever.

[hopetype]

[As Takeru was busy in the middle of his writing, he didn't even notice someone was staring at him. However, the moment that he saw Angelo looking at him, Takeru couldn't help but stare back.

...He definitely knows this person. Why can't he remember his name?]

I guess Cerealia just like me a lot more than I thought! They can try but they can't get rid of me!

A

[makigumo]

[ Hope he doesn't mind being suddenly picked up as Shihoudou comes up from behind. She lifts him at his armpits and holds him up over her head. ]

Granny wins!

[hopetype]

[Well, this was something he wasn't expecting! The moment he felt something grab him from behind, he started to panic! But once he figured out who it was?]

G-Granny? I wasn't expecting to see you here!

[Although, he was still surprised to see that she was strong as ever holding onto a tall boy like himself!]

A

[encourageous]

[Taichi raises an eyebrow, and Agumon frets as they witness the boy who just walked into a lamppost.]

Oi... Need a hand? [Something seems really odd and familiar about the boy to Taichi. Maybe it's just that he looks like he could pass for an extra brother to Yamato and Takeru...]

[hopetype]

[With the sudden impact from the lamppost, Takeru didn't seem to pay much attention who was talking at first. As he rubbed his face in hopes of easing the pain, he simply nodded]

Y-Yeah, I think that would b- [Then he quickly cut himself short, the moment he saw who it was!]

Taichi-san? Taichi-san, I didn't know you were still here!

C

[bewrightback]

Takeru? Is everything alright? [He'd noticed the child's absence, so he wonders what could have happened.]

[hopetype]

[There were a lot of things Takeru didn't quite remember about this place. However, the moment that he saw a certain name, he instantly recognised him!]

Phoenix-san! I was wondering when you would show up! It's been a long time hasn't it?

[And...probably kind of changing the subject just a tiiiinnyyy bit]
