Stumbling Along (Open)

[Solace Mercer]

Sol blinked a few times as he found himself standing on a grassy hill, looking around slowly at the rather lovely scenery. So this was the digital world, as James called it. It was... a lot more pleasant than he expected, though granted this was only one part of it. He looked down at the Botamon in his hands, the little digimon looking around, as entranced as he was. "So, ah, is this where you're from, James?" Solace asked, "Is this... primary village near here?" He was silently hoping that that would be the case, so he could just go there and try and convince them to take the over-exitable digimon back. Not that he didn't like the little creature, in fact he had been quickly developing a fondness for him, but he wasn't quite sure he wanted a part in all of this. Hence why he had immediately gone back to his apartment and, after cleaning the mess left by the botamon's initial rampage through his room, he had spent the better part of an hour sitting in front of his computer and trying to find a way to reverse whatever process brought James here. One entirely accidental digiport later, a bright light swallowed them all up, and here they were. Now he just had to figure out how to remove himself from whatever list he had been placed on to get wrapped up in all of this.

James, none the wiser to his Tamer's intentions, wiggling his body in a facimile of a head shake in response to the question. "Nope. I don't think I've ever been here." He said, sounding curious as he looked around. "I bet there are a lot of really tough digimon to fight here!"

Solace sighed, somehow thinking that giving the botamon what he wanted would be a very bad idea. "How about we just look around for a little bit first." He muttered as he started to walk in a random direction, keeping an eye out for anyone or anything.

Dantelion walked through the tall grass; it easily came up to his abdomen. Theos trotted along beside him his tail wagging. Everything seemed calm enough. His eyes roamed the open expanse till he was an outline. It looked human in appearance. They approached steadily. It was indeed a human and one that looked relatively lost. Not unlike him the first few times he was here. He guessed new people just had that look. It was probably what attracted others to him....well he guessed he should pass that kindness along. "Hello," Theos called out before him and bounced out ahead. Dantelion kept a calm pace as he approached. "I'm Theos and this is my partner Dantelion." "It is nice to meet you." Dantelion responded with a small wave. "You look kind of lost out here." He continued and looked to the humans arms at his small digimon. A fresh one....this guy was newer than he thought. He hoped he could help. He wasn't exactly good at this sort of thing. Without Theos he probably wouldn't have even spared him a moment. He was changing to a degree he guessed. Looks like Theos good nature rubbed off a little.

Sol was shocked to see a human walking up, though it was likely a bit of a stretch to think that he was tge only one to be caught up in these strange circumstances. This worked out pretty well, actually, as now he had someone who could answer the myriad of questions that had come up since the gelatenous little digimon had come into his life. "Um, hello!" He called out to the pair, glancing with curiousity at the new digimon. The botamon had been able to give him a rudimentary explination of digivolution, before they got here. Would James wind up looking something like that? Well, he supposed there was really no way of knowing for now. "Yeah, we are kind of lost. I'm Sol, and I was trying to find my way to where James here had come from. Um, primary village, I think he said?"

James, meanwhile, was squirming to get out of Solace's arms and bound up to the digimon. "Hi there, wanna have a fight?" He asked curiously. As far as he was concerned, that was the same as asking if they wanted to be his best friends forever.

Solace sighed a bit and shook his head. "Sorry about him, he has a bit of a one track mind." He said with a nervous, breathy chuckle. "We don't want to fight, just directions."

Dantelion thought about it. He and Theos met in the middle of no-where. Yet, he remembered something about primary villages where babies where born being in the cities around the digital world. He didn't have an exact location but something told him they needed more than that. "There are several primary villages. I'm almost certain they are all located in cities though. I've never gone there myself. No need really since I have my partner." Dantelion said looking to Theos. Theos just smiled at the Botamon. His tail wagging a mile a minute. He crouched down playfully. "Sure." Theos responded. Knowing to be gentle with the smaller digimon. "I imagine you're more than a little lost." Dantelion said watching Theos prance away a few paces. "I'd be willing to answer your questions." Only fair since he has had so many of his answered these past few weeks. He still wasn't an expert but he know more than this guy. Which left him to teach him as much as he could. Others would probably be able to do it better but he was the only one in sight. Theos hopped around the little Botamon. Patting at it with his hooves. Not unlike a cat with a ball.

((Perfectly fine. No worries ^^))

Well that took the wind out of Solace's sails. So there were multiple primary villages... well it did make sense, in a world presumably full of hundreds of thousands of these digimon creatures, one could only imagine there would be multiple places where they were born and raised. If that was the case though, he would just have to go to them, one after the other, trying to find the one that James had run off from, and then... well, he would thin of what to do then when the time came. He was definitely grateful fo the offer of an explanation, and smiled with relief at Dantelion. "Thank you. First of all, do you have any idea why I got picked for this?" He asked with another one of his nervous chuckles, "I've never really considered myself to be the adventuring type..."

As they spoke, James bounced out of Sol's arms, hopping over to where Theos waited, giggling excitedly. He tried to jump into the bigger digimon, not phased in the least as he was avoided and batted about, not feeling any pain whatsoever. "You're really good! Have you fought a lotta tough digimon?" Botamon asked, impressed by even this minimal display from an older, stronger digimon.

Solace watched James and Theos play, smiling a little bit. He was pretty cute when he wasn't causing havoc. However, Solace still wasn;t entirely sure he wanted to get involved in all of this. He could hardly take care of himself at the moment, how was he supposed to look after a very rambunctious digimon who would likely only get more and more destructive as time went on.

Dantelion frowned at the question. In truth no one knew why they were picked. It simply was. He had a good guess about it having something to do about virtues of the crests or eggs. "In truth no one knows. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has guessed this but it may have to do with the crests. The crests list virtues such as courage and love. My best guess is we have redeeming virtues that these digimon we are sent to raise need." Dantelion still had no idea what his virtue was. He had a hunch but again nothing was certain. "It is overwhelming, and the younger they are the more they have to learn. Speaking from experience with Theos they seemed to calm down as they evolve....though I can't speak for all digimon." He said watching them play with a slight smile. "He's still very active mind you but he channels it better now." "I've fought a few. I mainly got stronger through training with friends." Theos said smiling. He lowered his head to allow the botamon to get a few hits in. "Speaking of strong you pack quite a wallop." He said encouragingly. "You can't exactly quit either. You can go home and leave him here but the digivice will always tie you together. Speaking of home do you know how to get back?" Dantelion asked him.
