(A - Outside the Main Terminal)

Tony and Dorumon have just exited the main terminal, Tony's looking a little frustrated at his whole predicament, Dorumon however looks vaguely amused at how stubborn Tony was about the whole existence of the digital world and the fact he was brought here.

"You know, if anything any of you has said is even remotely true, then all I need to do is get to a computer then I'm going to program myself right on back to New York."

"Uh, huh. Knock yourself out on that one. Because I don't see it happening some how." Tony just huffs at her.

"You make arguing, really difficult. I don't like it."

"Ya huh, and you'll get used to it."

"Not if I can help it."

"You really can't."

"You know, you're still talking. But I remember you something about finding me food." Dorumon just makes an amused sound and keeps leading him to the Meeting Hall.

(B- In the Meeting Hall)

"A cafeteria." Tony stares not looking all that impressed with what he sees.

"Ya huh."

"This isn't food."

"Of course it's food. What do you eat back home?"

"Burgers, omelettes, hot dogs. Who cares what I ate back home, cafeteria's aren't food, they're cardboard on trays"

"Who said that?"

"Boarding school." To be fair, Tony hadn't been in a boarding school since he was 15, and at 48 he was a long way from 15, but that doesn't mean that he can't remember how terrible the food was, considering how much his dad had paid for the school it was pretty much insult to injury.

"They have burgers."

"...I'm only trusting you with this once." He points a finger at her before heading over to where he can get himself a burger, as Dorumon just rolls her eyes.

"Ya huh, sure."

Fluttershy squeaks softly, her good wing shooting out in surprise at the unexpected voice - not Dorumon's, she'd been all right with that. But the man's voice is what causes her to jump slightly.

The two Digimon look towards the girl, but once they're sure she's all right they turn back to Dorumon thoughtfully.

"Huh...Actually, that doesn't sound too bad..."

"I dunno...that sounds weird. Won't the chocolate melt and get all gross and stuff?

"What? You don't think melted chocolate is the best thing ever?" Dorumon pretends to be shocked, but she's smiling too much to mean it.

Tony runs his hands through his hair. Feeling kind of uncomfortable about not only starling a girl, but clearly making her nervous.

"Yeah. Hi there. So... Two digimon, huh?"

Still awkward, yeah...

Choco doesn't seem to realize she was joking, though he still seems friendly enough about it. "Well no, I don't mind melted chocolate, but it sounds weird with the cheese..."

Meanwhile, Fluttershy fidgets just a little, rubbing her arm nervously as her hair partially covers her face.

"M...M-Mm...I-It's...k-kind of a...long story..."

Floramon watches her, then gently pats her side. "It's not really...And don't take it personally, Fluttershy's just...well...shy."

While she might be making a joke about the pizza, she does in fact love melted chocolate.

"Weird? Or interesting"

And then Tony just can't ignore that.

"You can have chocolate on pizza, it's a dessert pizza you don't use cheese though, I've had it with marshmallows and caramel. It's really good."

"Oh! I want that!"

He turns his attention to Floramon before glancing at Fluttershy.

"Shy, huh?" He lowers himself to get more on her level. "Hi there. Name's Tony, what's yours, dearheart?"

"Oooh...! That does sound really good!"

Fluttershy blushes a little, though seems to at least be warming up somewhat.

"I-It's...Fluttershy..."

Floramon smiles, then turns back to the man. "Nice to meet you, Tony."

"It does! Should we see if they can make it?" Dorumon hops between her feet happily.

"That, is a lovely name, Fluttershy. Nice to meet you too, Audrey 2"

He smiles pleasantly at them both, trying to help her feel a little less nervous around him.

"Yeah, let's ask them!"

"It's just Floramon...for now." Floramon hasn't gotten a nickname yet, but it'd come eventually.

Smiling slightly, she looks up at Tony. "Y-You're...new here, aren't you? D-Did you...just arrive?"

"Ya huh! Let's go" Dorumon starts heading to the doors to the kitchen to knock at it for attention.

"Floramon? Good name, accurate really." Tony keeps smiling and nods. "You know, I am. Unlike you though, I clearly have a much more annoying digimon than you do."

Normally Choco would never leave Fluttershy on her own. But since Floramon was with her, he didn't have to worry too much and hurries after Dorumon.

Fluttershy smiles a little. "W-Well it...takes a while to get to know them. I-I'm sure you two could get along after spending time together..."

Dorumon keeps knocking at the door until it's opened and she starts begging for that pizza.

"You sure about that? Because I'm only going to belive you if you're sure."

She nods. "I-It...may seem like a strange match up at first...but they are our partners for a reason...A-And with enough time, I'm sure you two could learn to make a pretty good team."

"Time, huh?"

Tony runs a hand through his hair with a thoughtful look on his face.

"That's starting to sound like something I'll have a lot of while I'm here. So at least we'll be able to find out how right you are about that."

He gives her a grin then stands straight again, looking around for Dorumon.

"At least we both seem to like trying something new."

"Mm...y-you...get used to it after a while..."

Glancing at the two Digimon still asking for pizza, she smiles.

"And there are lots of people who are willing to help if you need it."

Tony managed to not make a sarcastic noise to needing help. Even though Tony's come a long way from the man he used to be, he really still wasn't someone to just ask for help. Usually help was forced on him.

"Well, at least that's something to know."

He blinks at her for a moment, wetting his lips absently.

"You know I don't think I've ever met anyone this nervous. Is it the goatee? The tie? Or the furry purple dinosaur with wings?"

He gestures to Dorumon at the last part.

She blushes a little, brushing back some of her hair. "O-Oh, n-no it's...it's not you. Or Dorumon. I-I'm sorry, I'm just...naturally like this..."

"Huh."

He rubs at his goatee thoughtfully.

"Somehow, that's endearing. And well something I've never actually experienced before."

Being in the spotlight since childhood Tony's never really met shy people, as the level of attention he's used to doesn't really make shy people comfortable.

Still blushing, she glances down at her feet.

Rolling her eyes good-naturedly, Floramon lightly nudges Fluttershy before addressing Tony. "Don't worry, she'll come around once she warms up to ya. So you've really never dealt with shy people before?"

"Well, one. But he wasn't really this kind of shy, it was more of a nervous they're out to kill me kind of way."

Tony nods a little to himself, thinking about Bruce. Because he was pretty shy, but not shy like Fluttershy was.

Floramon blinks. "Oh..."

Fluttershy blinks a little as well. "O-Out to...?"

Tony shrugs like it isn't a big deal.

"Well yeah, to be fair there were some who were. But killing him isn't something people can do. He's still twitchy though."

"O-Oh...w-well I...guess that would make anyone a bit...nervous..."

"Yeah. Think he's getting over it though. At least last I saw him he was less twitchy."

Though to be fair he doesn't pay the best of attention.

"Guess he feels safe or something."

"W-Well, that's good then."

"For society at large, yeah. I guess it is good."

"W-Well it's...good for him too. Everyone deserves to feel...safe..."
