It's a Small World After All - or a small town, rather
Who: Riku Replica and YOU!
What: Having finally reached Hospitown, the Replica decides to wander about with his oddball Digimon. Eventually he grows bored and decides to explore the general area on the continent.
Where: HospiTown
When: January 13h
[Having rested off the fatigue from his travels, the Replica's decided it's time to see what this town's all about. He gets up at the crack of dawn, slipping out of his room with Kotemon and attempts to sneak out without Gabumon noticing.
It backfires, and by the time he's out the door, he's trailed by two bickering Digimon, most of the bickering on Gabumon's end, though he tries keeping it at a whisper.]
Hrrrgh! Don't think I didn't see you before! I know you're made of tougher stuff, Kotemoron.
Okay, look, Gabumon. I really don't want to have to do this, but if you don't pipe down, I might start having second thoughts about snagging that pelt.
[The threat silences the grouchy Digimon for the time being, and Kotemon mutters quiet thanks. What some may see as cruelty, she sees as relief-- after all, while Gabumon's eased up a little, he still makes routine jabs at her verbally.
Throughout the day, Rep and co. make stops at the General Store, where they scoop up some extra clothes and a few of those weird chips for the D-Stream. In the after noon, they can be found seated at the café, where the Replica prods at his food with a fork with a rather disgruntled look on his face. At least it's better than the hospital food.]
[Eventually, however, he grows tired of the limited space, and by the end of the day, he can be found outside the entrance to the residential area, leaning against the building's outer wall.]
You know, if this is all we've got here, I'm almost tempted to book it back to San Francisco or at least that Star City place.
[Kotemon sighs, and though her face hides behind her mask, she's got a sad look in her eyes.]
But we just got here! Don't you think it'd be nice to spend a bit more time relaxing? And Miss Sophia will get worried if we disappear...
Right...
[Should anyone pass him by as they converse, he might call over to them with a "hey, you!" After all, if he can garner enough interest for an expedition, that'd make it a bit better, right?]

[Lo and behold, there's Sophia, with Commandramon behind her.]
no subject
[Whoa, Sophia's voice snaps him out of whatever daze he was in, and he immediately holds up both his hands and shakes his head.]
Nobody's disappearing. I was just... I was thinking it might be worth exploring the rest of the island. This town's peaceful and all, but it's just so small.
no subject
[She walks up to him and puts a tiny hand on his arm, almost disapprovingly.]
You weren't gonna leave without saying something, were you?
no subject
[His frown deepens at the idea. Darn it, Sophia, why do you have to get at his soft spot like that?]
I wasn't gonna take off right now. Heck, I thought about asking you and Sora along for the ride.
no subject
Oh.
[They just got done traveling. Sophia's used to moving around a lot, but...]
Would we come back eventually?
no subject
[After all the traveling they've done, he's more than happy to rest in an actual bed.]
no subject
[With Commandramon beside her, Sophia taps her feet on the ground and then pouts up her lips.]
I guess if we're still gonna sleep in a nice bed and not get in trouble I wouldn't mind going too.
no subject
[He rubs at his back, shifting his shoulders until there's a distinct pop.]
Think of it more like a short term vacation or uh... a field trip, maybe.
[Don't kids usually have those in school?]
no subject
[Now she perks up.] A field trip? I want one of those. I haven't been on a field trip since I went to the zoo for first grade and learned about monkeys!
Please can I go? Please, please?
[Sophia has, in a matter of one sentence, changed her entire tune.]
no subject
[He taps his chin, as if this requires deep, deliberate thought.]
Well, who knows? Maybe they've got monkey Digimon out there.
no subject
The big ones, bigger than most people, they're called gorillas, not monkeys. [She says this with a proud look and a very big smile. It's just inviting praise. She knows this, praise her.]
no subject
[He's heard of "Gatomon" before, so why not have Digimon based off of other regular animals?
Still, he'll go ahead and pat her on the head.]
Sounds like you know your animals.
no subject
Maybe Com'mon'll become a bird.
[Her Digimon...sort of tries to grin but can't. Him? A bird?]
no subject
[Shrug. Really, it's still kinda a stretch in his mind. Commandramon's an army lizard. What would he become? Some kind of eagle with grenade launchers?]
Who knows? If Kotemon can become a giant, blue dragon, anything's possible.
no subject
Whatever you say, Sophia! [He's holding back a fond laugh.]
