[ Not long after handcuffs, a certain immortal will be calling out her destined companion, as it were. ]

Oi, oi! Shoutmon, we have things to talk about.

[ It seems her dismissive attitude about being a general has evaporated. Some things in Gensokyo were still held with high honor, and fate-- maybe not honored by all residents, certainly not

[Shoutmon, on the other hand, seems to have accepted his fate of being the sidekick of someone who doesn't give a hoot about all of his problems, so he's taken to being tearful and overdramatic in his spare time and--]

[xrosmysoul]

[... wait WHAT]

[xrosmysoul]

[time for the tried and true "I KNEW IT ALL ALONG" victory laugh/pose.]

H... Haaahahahaha!! I always knew you would come around eventually! I just had to wait!! If it's a waiting game, Shoutmon will definitely always win!!!

[hahahaha that is a lie]

[blazeof]

Yeah, yeah. Look, the kid with the tiger explained some things to me.

[ Hands in her pocket. ] Haaaah, is this my red string? For an immortal who does nothing but fight, I'm not sure if this is the right path or the wrong path.

[ Thumps a fist over her chest, one hand still in her pocket. ] But I no longer have a choice in walking it. So fill me in.

... don't use big digital words though right away, I still have a ways to go. That Conan kid had to explain it starting from books and working our way up.

[xrosmysoul]

... You mean that whiny one from before? With that Leormon guy?

[genuinely curious now-- he drops the ~dramatics~ for a moment to pay serious attention]

... Hey, Mokou... [he pauses. this MIGHT be a bad idea, but his heart won't let him just accept a "I no longer have a choice" like that.] I do really really want you to be my general, but you gotta agree to it! I mean, I'm not going to force you. [thumbs up] I want to be your partner, not your warden.

Don't know what you mean by big digital words, though.

[blazeof]

I don't make choices I don't mean.

I don't walk paths I don't believe I'm meant to walk. I saved your life, and something brought me out of Gensokyo to do it. It takes a lot in a thousand and three hundred years to make you seriously reconsider your life choices.

And what do you know, metalhead? You made me reconsider mine.

So call me general if you want.

[xrosmysoul]

... Heh. Heh heh heh!

That's what I like to hear! No regrets!

Okay then, we'll make it official, General! Let me tell you about what it means. Remember how I was telling you about how I want to be the King of Digimon?

[blazeof]

Yeah, go on about that. The kid didn't seem to know anything about it.

[xrosmysoul]

Of course he wouldn't! He was talking about taming and all kinds of weird things that I've never heard of!

... Right, so what was it again? Right-- Right now, I'm just a regular old Digimon. ... Well, an amazing regular old Digimon, but I'm no King. What I need, you see, is a General to lead me there. Does that make more sense?

[blazeof]

Yeah... and what does general leading entail?

[xrosmysoul]

Exactly what it sounds like! We become partners, and together, you'll lead our army to conquer the Digital World with the power of that DigiXros you created!!

[TOTALLY SELFLESS AMIRITE?]

[blazeof]

...

Yeah, I'm not on board for world conquering.

[xrosmysoul]

... Eh?

But you said--

[blazeof]

Conquering means taking away the freedom that people has.

I didn't peg you for the type to do that.

[xrosmysoul]

Be-Because I'm not! That's what I--

[blazeof]

[ Sitting down, cross-legged. ]

Explain.
