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!]

I do but it doesn't feel the same.

[He said before glancing a few flowers here and there] I guess the scene in Cerealia just makes it feel a little bit more special somehow. I'm not sure why really!

[Special, huh?]

[She waited until they were near the lake, pausing at the edge of the water to kneel down. Head tilting slightly to one side as she stared out over the water. There were a bunch of little bushes of flora all around.]

It's like the Digital World.

We were brought here to help, right? So...these ponds are the ponds that we help keep safe. Maybe that's what makes them so special.

That might be it, I always wondered why this place seemed so special to me.

[He said before sitting down next to her by the pond. As he let the silence between them. Should he say something now or later?

As he gave a sigh, he lowered his head before looking down at the water]

I'm really sorry, Hikari-chan, I didn't mean to make you sad. There's just a lot of things I don't want to talk about.

[It would have to be him to break the silence. During those heavy moments, she had barely moved until his voice spoke up again. Only then did she turn to look at him.]

I'm not sad.

[Not really. At least..well...not in the way he was thinking. Exactly. It was more...]

If you don't want to talk, then...that's okay. [I can't force you. Nor would she.] I understand. I won't bother you with questions.

[Takeru kept on pondering her words. Of course she wouldn't bother him about it, it wasn't like her to do that. Maybe one day he'll tell her about what happened.

It was only a matter of time before Hikari could get rather curious. But for now?]

Thank you. I promise I'll tell you one day, I'll make sure of it. I wouldn't want to let you down!

You could never let me down.

[She picked up a little stone and casually tossed it into the pond. Watching as it skipped once before sinking, the ripples breaking through the otherwise smooth surface of the water.]

[In return, Takeru simply watched before a small smile appeared on his face. As he grabbed a stone nearby, he was feeling a little confident right now]

Mind if I joined you? Maybe we can break a record and see how we can throw it!

Of course not.

[She did finally look at him then. And smiled. It wasn't big or bright, but it wasn't forced, either.]

I'll bet you can throw really far.

I hope I do!

[He said before attempting to throw said rock as far as he could! Of course, try as he might, it clearly didn't go the distance. Instead, when he threw said rock? It simply just fell straight to the pond]

Awww, c'mon, I thought it was going to go further than that! I guess I'm not good at this huh?

[That...actually surprised her. She had really expected him to be the best at it. Because it was Takeru, and he always seemed so good at so many different things to her.]

[There was another rock on her other side. She picked it up...and handed it to him.]

Try again.

[Despite how experienced Takeru was, there were still a lot of things he didn't know. As much as it annoyed him, he knew that he had to take his time.

...Which annoyed him even further.

But as he looked back at the rock and back at Hikari, he attempted throw it once more. And this time? It went a little further than before!]

What do you think? I think I'm getting a little bit better!

[She nodded with a smile, and passed him yet another rock. More interested now in his efforts than in making any of her own.]

You just needed to practice, that's all.

[With each rock that he threw, it was clear that he was getting better. Although, it still didn't go anywhere near as far as Hikari gotten. How embarrassing, he thought to himself, it sure wasn't as easy as it looked!]

I don't know, I think you're better than me at this!

[She shook her head, continuing to pass him all the rocks. Occasionally throwing one herself, though it didn't get anywhere near as far as her first throw.]

I just got lucky. That's all.
