Digimon Adventure 02 © Toei Animation A.M.V. by Me No $$$ is being made off this Fanwork

Notes: - The 1st minute took about 45 min; 2nd part made took about just over 2hr’s; The 3rd+4th parts from interlude on took 35~ min each, Altogether, it's already taken 3~4+ hr's. - This is my 08/02 Focus work, for August 2nd anniversary of Adventures timeline! (by August 2nd, Vamdemon's invasion of Odaiba had Begun) Daisuke, who was initially captured inside the same center as Odaiba convention center Vamdemon kept Tailmon trapped in; just might have come across a Certain Person (or two) Near this and the following exact Day{s}... (Alluding to Daisuke's official Drama CD audio Track from "Digimon Adventure 02: Spring 2003"!) - This A.M.V. is overall a Standalone work. (It is not directly involved with my other work); However, it can be considered a work For the storyline that’s a precursor to Repeat-verse, which came before that story was conceived!) Therefore, it can be watched as a Standalone! - I reused a part of an older edit for the earliest Tri P.V.; (for timing placements) it had an old subtitle on, but I’ll remove that for the finished version! - (There is a moment of Hurricane Touchdown!Taichi for Timing) {As it works for my fan-‘verse, I left it in, with a bonus by end!} However, the work is overall/near-wholly 02-focused (so far)! - There is a small amount of out-of-context scenes, However, they’re meant to overall parallel the lyric{s} on-screen. - There is a single Tri spoiler from Kyousei; involving the character of "Homeostasis", that (mind)-possesses Hikari briefly in Adventure Ep. 45 previously. {"Gennai" [Tri] can also be seen for some short seconds} - Major handful of "The Beginning" sequel spoilers by ending; However, it's all actually immediately Pre-Final battle. (The Digimon in final battle can be seen Clearly, +Rui)

{I have not yet re-written the Daikari storyline involved with the past ficverse of mine in full; So please take this work as a sort of preview to it!} The ending lines and following sequences especially hint/allude a little more to my ficverse's potential turnouts; but it can be viewed/read as semi or even fully canon compliant too!

His pink ukulele

Summary: Sakuya plays the ukulele. He also appreciates what the ukulele brought into his life.

The rain was hitting the warm concrete and the garden in the courtyard with small drops of water. Above the dorm building, the sky was filled with gray clouds, hiding away the usual summer sun.

It wasn't the type of weather people usually liked to see while they were outside. Yet, Sakuya was outside, taking in the calming sign with a dreamy smile on his face.

His body was sheltered from the rain, but his mind was focused only on it. The sound of the rain droplets meeting the ground, the sight of the rain wetting the usually dry outside, the smell of the wet concrete, they all had the honor of having Sakuya's entire attention.

He had no idea how much he sat outside and stared at the scenery, but his mind finally walked away from the daze as if someone snapped their fingers next to his ear. Suddenly, he remembered why he went outside in the first place.

Sakuya carefully held the ukulele in his hands while he took out the cover, and the sound of the zipper of the cover touching the strings of the small instrument echoed melodically. He stared at the pink instrument in his hands, a small smile blossoming on his face as he remembered the day when he received it.

He could remember the awe he felt when he saw Itaru holding the ukulele, his hands seeming a little too big for the small instrument.

"Wow, Itaru-san, is that a-"

Sakuya didn't even get to finish his question, because Citron jumped right into the conversation that barely started. "It's an ukulele! It's really small, isn't it?"

Sakuya couldn't help but agree. He's always wanted owning one, playing one, but he would've been content just with seeing one.

"Is it yours?" Sakuya asked. Itaru had a cunning smile on his face, the kind of smile he had when he was planning something.

"Itaru's appearance doesn't work with his appearance," Masumi answered before Itaru could, and his words made his fellow troupe member waver just a little. "But the director... she'd look so cute, playing an ukulele..." "Itaru is more like a mysterious guitarist from a cool band!" Citron added, not allowing Masumi's train of thoughts to take over the conversation. "Hey, this is not why we're here..." Tsuzuru sighed, trying to get his troupemates to focus on... whatever they were doing.

"Why do you have it, then? The ukulele." Sakuya said, catching the attention of his troupe, much to Tsuzuru's relief. Itaru's smile was on his face again, and it made Sakuya confused.

"It's yours," Masumi finally said, as direct as ever.

Sakuya's eyes widened slowly, while they were looking only at the instrument he'd wished to hold for years. A few moments passed silently, the Spring Troupe allowing the leader to process the words.

Citron took the instrument from Itaru’s hands and slowly approached Sakuya, carefully holding the ukulele’s body. But, the closer he got, the more blurry he became.

And then, a sob escaped his lips, and another, and another.

One of them, probably Tsuzuru, put his hand on his shoulder, squeezing it reassuringly. Citron gave Sakuya the instrument, smiling kindly at him.

The body and the neck were warm, probably from how Itaru held it in his hands. The color was a pastel pink, his favorite color. He felt a small paper stuck at the back on the instrument and, when he turned it around, he found a small piece of paper with the signature of all of the Spring Troupe members, and a message saying “Thank you for being our great leader”. Sakuya ran his fingers over the paper, staring at it intensively. He felt his heart swell with emotion, bursting with warm feelings all over his body. The tears in his eyes were warm, and his face felt hot. Wiping a few tears away from his eyes and cheeks, he gave everyone a huge, grateful smile, followed by a watery "Thank you!".

Sakuya plucked every string, wincing at the flat sound each of them made. He has been particularly busy with the mixed performances MANKAI Company has been delivering lately, so his ukulele has been patiently waiting for him to remember that he had left it on his table. However, even if Sakuya didn't get to play it as often as it used to, the instrument still served as a daily reminder for the Spring Troupe leader to smile, and that people cared about him very deeply.

He started tuning the instrument by rotating the pegs one by one, humming contently when the sounds matched the ones he spend so much time learning with the help of his roommate.

“Okay, Sakuya,” his roommate said, bringing his laptop to the table in their room. The laptop had a MeTube tab open at a video titled “Ukulele playing for beginners”. He pointed at the seat right next to the laptop

“I want to learn how to play the ukulele! ” Citron declared. “So, we will learn together!” 

Sakuya was surprised by what his roommate just said, but it all made sense when he saw him grab a very old looking ukulele from somewhere inside his chest. Sakuya gasped quietly. “Where did you get the ukulele?”

“In my country, it is a requiem to know how to play the ukulele, since it is the national instruments played at birthdays!”

“I think you meant requirement...”

“Yes, that!”

“...Wait. If it’s a requirement to play the ukulele, then why do you not know how to-”

“Let’s take a seat and learn, Sakuya!“

“But-”

“I’m pressing play!”

The person in the video started describing each part of the ukulele, from the body, to the pegs. When they got to the tuning part, both of them tuned their instruments to the best of their abilities. Before they moved on to the strings, Citron paused the video.

“Your A string is a little sharp, Sakuya.”

Sakuya looked down on his instrument, and pulled the A string, but it didn’t sound off to him. “Really? Are you sure?”

“Yes. Try loosening the string with the peg.”

Sakuya did as he was told (well, he tried, but the first time he tightened the string instead and the sound was considerably sharper than before) and, with his second try, he won the aproval of his roommate, who pressed play once more.

Every few minutes, Citron stopped the video and helped Sakuya with small things he didn’t even know were being done wrong, as if they were usual, rookie mistakes that Citron was aware of and knew how to correct. The more they went on, the more convinced Sakuya was that his roommate knew how to play, after all. However, he didn’t say anything, since it felt like Citron knew Sakuya caught on his little lie.

By the end of the tutorial, Sakuya’s fingers were hurting, and the tips of his fingers had the shape of the strings imprinted on them, but he was more content than he thought he would be. The quality of the sound he was creating seemed to get better with every chord he played, and he even learned the very simple tune of “You Are My Sunshine”. But, the best part was the look of content and pride on Citron’s face.

“You learned so much today, Sakuya! Congratulation!”

“It’s all thanks to you, Citron-san!”

It’s been more than a year since then, and now Sakuya was more than able to tune the instrument by ear. He took a seat on the ground and hummed to himself. “Hmm, let’s see if I remember how it goes...”

He started playing “You Are My Sunshine” to the little audience that he had: the rain, the chairs, the cherry blossom tree in the courtyard, or whoever happened to pass by but didn’t dare to interrupt him. The melodic sounds of the ukulele, occasionally accompanied by his own humming, blended with the calm of the sight in front of him. He didn’t know how many times he repeated the tune, but the rain was restlessly applauding his little show, which made Sakuya smile.

His little concert wasn’t over, however, since he started playing other songs that he knew, like “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”, “Three Little Birds”, or random pop songs he heard of from Taichi and Kazunari.

Ah, yes, Sakuya thought, Taichi-kun always gives me nice song suggestions. He always seems so eager to listen to me play...

Sakuya’s face was getting warmer, and his cheeks were being decorated with a light shade of pink. Taichi reminded him of one and one song only...

A minor, D minor, G seventh, C major, F major, D minor, E seventh, A minor, A seventh...

Sakuya named all the chords he was playing in his head, the chords that, combined together, recreated the song “Fly Me To The Moon”. His occasional hums became almost words that were following the tune with the help of Sakuya’s gentle and warm voice. The feelings he was experiencing were making themselves known to the outside through the little moments when Sakuya’s voice shook slightly with emotion.

The first time Sakuya played this song in front of someone, it was when he played it in front of Tenma and Taichi, who have been pleading Sakuya to let them hear him play at least one song. Well, Taichi used to plead more, but Tenma’s blushing face whenever he was asked about it proved he was just as interested in hearing him play as much as Taichi.

Back then, his voice didn’t shake only because of his affection slipping through, but also because of his nervousness. It was the first time he played the ukulele to anyone outside on his troupe, and he wanted to impress the two boys that he loved, who were sitting right in front of him, listening to his performance attentively.

Taichi’s eyes were wide open and his mouth slightly agape, sucking in every movement, every sound, every nervous smile thrown his way that he always reciprocated a second too late. Tenma’s eyes were closed, his mind probably far away, somewhere at a place where only the three of them existed peacefully.

The song ended, and Sakuya took his hand away from the body, holding the ukulele with the other hand by the neck. After a few moments of silence passed, Taichi closed his mouth, a huge smile blossoming on his face, and he launched himself forward, hugging Sakuya tightly.

“Sakkun, that was amazing!” Taichi gushed, his grip on his boyfriend tight. Sakuya burst into laughter, all of his nervousness being melted away by Taichi’s touch.

“Thanks, Taichi-kun! I’m glad you enjoyed it!” he replied, and turned his head towards Tenma, who seemed like he just came back to reality from whatever dream world he went off to.

“It was beautiful” was all he got to say. Taichi stretched his hand out to Tenma and grabbed him by the wrist, pulling him into a group hug.

“If you guys get any more talented, my heart will burts!” Taichi joked, hugging his partners a little bit tighter.

“Prepare for your heart to burst, then, ‘cause we won’t stop anytime soon,” Tenma replied, making Sakuya laugh.

When Sakuya’s thoughts came back to the present, he finally noticed the two pair of eyes that were watching him with interest.

One of his favorite audiences, Tenma and Taichi, were watching him, patiently waiting to be noticed. Sakuya’s eyes met theirs, and they smiled at him.

“Felt like having a little concert all by yourself?” Tenma asked, and he stretched an arm towards Sakuya to help him get up. 

“Kind of,” Sakuya laughed nervously. He took Tenma’s hand, and his fellow troupe leader lifted him up with relative ease. “I noticed that it was raining, so I suddenly got the idea to play some songs here.”

“But, Sakkun, it stopped raining fifteen minutes ago,” Taichi observed.

“Wait, really?” Sakuya turned his head towards the courtyard, and Taichi was right: the earth was wet, the concrete was still a darker color due to the water, but the rain was no more. Not even the clouds were up in the sky, they were replaced by the orange evening sun.

“Bet you caused the rain to stop,” Taichi said, “your smile is always so sunshine-y that it brings the sun out even in the darkest days!” Taichi’s comment brought a small blush to Sakuya’s face.

“Now that the weather cleared up,” Tenma began, “it seems like it’s a perfect time to go out and do some street acts. What do you say?”

“Aw, nice thinking, Ten-chan! Of course I’d like to perform some street acts with you two!” Taichi replied. “Right, Sakkun?”

“You’re right,” Sakuya agreed. “I just need to leave this in my room, and I’ll come with you too. I’ll be back in a moment!” 

“Sure, we’ll wait at the entrance.” Tenma said.

Sakuya opened the door for his room and went inside, noticing Citron wasn’t there. He walked to the table in the middle of the room, where he carefully put the instrument cover. After carefully putting it over the instrument and closing the zipper, he headed to the door and, right as he was about to turn the doorknob, he glanced back at the pink ukulele, in its pink cover, sitting on the table. Even the sight of it made Sakuya think of all the good things it managed to bring into his life.

Maybe it wasn’t wrong to think that the ukulele was a representation of his dreams of being an actor. Back then, they were only things that Sakuya convinced himself it was okay to dream about. But now that they were in his life, they were one more reason to wake up with a smile on his face, one more reason to be happy every day, one more reason to be grateful of what he was given.

Sakuya gave it one more glance before he walked out of the room and closed the door.

Epilogue Celebration: “Couples”

The Epilogue is my favourite timeline for Sora x Yamato, so ofc I’m going to use this prompt as an excuse to talk about them. But how do you sum up a vision built on almost 20 years of headcanons and stories? Here is my modest attempt...

“State of The Art”

As of 2028, Sora and Yamato (40) have been together for around 10 years. The exact timeline of the relationship depends on which of them you ask; when they got back together at the end of the 2010s, they took a while to go from a no-strings-attached relationship to being an official couple. It took them even longer to decide to get married, since both were pretty wary of marriage. 

When, after a few years of dating, Yamato was assigned by JAXA to an astronaut training course in France, he asked Sora to come and live with him. Making things legal made immigration bureaucracy less complicated, so they just took the extra step and eloped. The only witnesses at their wedding were their Digimon partners (something Takeru cries over to this day)! They lived in France for a few years and had two kids, Hana (6) and Ren (3), who were born there. During this period, Yamato, who had a position at the European Space Agency, completed two space trips, while Sora worked at a big Parisian fashion house. 

In 2025, after Yamato’s international assignment ended, they relocated to Japan, and Sora decided to start her own fashion label, to great success. Since both make decent money, they now live in a lovely house with a garden and have a comfortable financial situation. This is where we find them at the time of the Epilogue.

Raising the Kids

Sora was initially scared of becoming a mother. Growing up with everyone treating her as a “mom friend” and feeling responsible for the well-being of others, in addition to the pressures of belonging to the Takenouchi family, she was hesitant to have a child unless she was sure she would not mess it up. Yamato, on the other hand, craved kids (being very fond of his nephew Théo) and secretly dreamed of having a child with Sora, but didn’t push the subject much until Sora decided for herself.

Sometime after Hana’s birth, after it was clear that they both were made for parenthood, they were happy to expand the family, but there were a few health issues during pregnancy and childbirth. Baby Ren was born premature from an emergency c-section, and they were told conceiving again was very unlikely. So, with some regret, the Takenouchi-Ishida family was complete.

Sora and Yamato are usually on the same page when it comes to raising Hana and Ren. They value their happiness and freedom above everything else, and living abroad influenced them and made them have a pretty modern approach to parenting. 

Yamato was raised with practically no rules or adult supervision, and Sora was the opposite, so they try to find a balance for their kids. It’s usually Sora who enforces rules, because Yamato is very easily manipulated by the kids who tend to get their way around him every time. By contrast, Yamato is the hands-on, overprotective dad who truly believes his children to be faultless and superior to all other kids, something Sora tries to balance a little to make sure the kids are polite and unspoiled.

It isn’t always easy to juggle work-family balance, but they have a lot of help and support from their parents, especially since they moved back to Japan. Hiroaki, in particular, is a keen baby sitter, but all four grandparents almost fight over who gets to watch the kids when Yamato and Sora are working!

Relationship Dynamics

Sora and Yamato are very passionate and devoted to each other (after all, they’ve been in love since they were teenagers, even though it took them a long while to get together), but they also have a somehow atypical relationship.  They aren’t openly demonstrative in public. They were the last of the group to start a family. They don’t share a last name (because Sora is an only child and heir to an important iemoto family, like her mom, she didn’t change her name after marriage; a recent law allows Yamato to keep his birth name, but the kids are Takenouchi). They eloped instead of having a big wedding. They have demanding careers that involve traveling abroad and off-planet. They happen to both be former Chosen Children (although Sora “retired” from Digimon business in 2010).

This means that they are pretty independent, and they are used to spending time away from each other. The saying “absence makes the heart grow fonder” is key here! Yamato and Sora make sure to treasure every second they do spend together and enjoy it to the max. Friends joke they are weird, but behind closed doors they are constantly on the honeymoon phase, because they don’t really have time to get bored with each other.

Supporting each other’s careers is an important aspect of the marriage. They are both passionate about their jobs. Sora made it clear, from the start, that she would not be willing to get married or have kids if that meant sacrificing her dream of becoming a fashion designer or that she wouldn’t accept anything other than an egalitarian partnership with her husband and co-parent. Luckily, Yamato is a good housekeeper and sharing chores hasn’t been much of a problem here (though she still struggles with some of the habits he acquired living with his Dad). Sora is also very understanding of Yamato’s dangerous job and can handle it better than most (though of course she worries!).

Although Sora moved across countries for the sake of Yamato’s job, and has to take care of the kids alone when he was off in space (which required her to postpone her career plans for some time), Yamato was also the main person who supported her decision start her own fashion house in Japan. Nowadays, he’s usually the one who misses work to stay home with the kids while Sora works weekends and late nights, running her growing fashion empire.

Yamato has only been on one space travel since the kids were born (he spent eight months away from home in 2026) and now has a very flexible schedule that lets him spent lots of time at home. This coincided with the period when Sora was building her brand and achieving success, and so was more busy than ever. They try to arrange their schedules so they don’t spend more than two weeks apart and Sora devotedly schedules “dates” so they have quality time together. But both know it’s inevitable that he will be called again, especially if a threat appears or if world governments decide to invest in a Mars mission, so this work-family balance may face some challenges in the near future.

For them, emotional distance can be more of a problem than physical distance. They tend to avoid discussing problems and fears when they aren’t together, and so sometimes they feel a little isolated with their feelings. Sora often feels very overwhelmed with her many responsibilities (running a successful label alongside with helping her aging mother with the Ikebana school), but is too proud to ask for anyone’s help, and can feel disgruntled when she feels Yamato isn’t paying enough attention to her. Meanwhile, when Yamato has an important work-assignment in his hands, he throws himself headfirst and can become distant. He often feels guilty for neglecting his wife and kids and worries about not being present enough, because his fear is that history will repeat itself. 

Rest assured, though, because marital problems are a rarity. Years have helped them communicate better and they know each other inside out; this a mutually satisfying, supportive, and harmonious marriage all around.

Summary:

{ WORDS }

-- To be honest,

Taichi and Koushiro don't need words. ( They have a lot more than Just )

( words )

-- Like, ... the way that Taichi-san looks at him, so gently.

( ... when he thinks Koushiro can't tell. ) Like, ... the way that Koushiro does the exact same thing all the time

( and Taichi notices ) ( every time. ) Like, ... the way that Taichi-san -- gently touches his shoulder.

( Attempting reassuring? him )

Like, ... the way that Koushiro ALWAYS, ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL, uses,

"Taichi-san"

Like, the way Taichi --

-- RECOGNIZES --

... WORDS ARE HARD for Koushiro.

Like, the way Taichi -- -- is always there for him

-- regardless. Like, the way Koushiro --

will always be by -- Taichi-san’s -- side

-- until,

the very end.

Notes:

-Originally written December 29, 2018; not posted previously. -Posted today for a couple particularly kind-of-reasons (see tags). -Also, when taking place in the main REPEAT universe, my Asexuality spectrum headcanons for either may be read in/implied - it is also Asexuality Awareness week, hence also why posting today. { Ace Week is October 25 through October 31st }

{ for Taichi I can see him as Demiromantic Pansexual OR Pan-Demiromantic & Demisexual, depending on ‘verse }

{ for Koushiro, essentially the same thing. However, in Tri canon compliancy specifically, I usually put him as Demiromantic Pansexual }

{ I can also see either as Queer in general, or Bi. [ while also using Gay as an Umbrella term ] Though for Koushiro I usually keep him specifically more as Pan. For both I also really love Gender-fluid headcanons, though this part was specifically also written with Ace and Aro[mantic]-spectrum headcanons in mind. }

My thoughts on Symbiosis (probably part 1 of who knows)

OKAY. None of this rambling will probably make sense, but these are my notes and feelings about Symbiosis.

The Plot

• Kind of a mess, tbqh. That said, I did enjoy the official bringing in of all(?) the sides in the conflict, leading to a pretty excellent four-way battle between the Chosen, Meico-whatever-mon, Homeostasis, and Yggdrasil. Very nice, with lots of motivations and conflicts.

• I loved how the final battle was handled, which I’ll go into more in the characters segment of my rambling.

• Omegamon slicing open the rift so the team could follow the battle into the Digital World? HELL YEAH.

• The merged Digimon created by Ophanimon and Meicoo-whatever was creepy as all hell omg.

• The return of the Dark Ocean!!! And in a very nicely done way, imo.

• The movie felt super slow, even if it had some great moments and the incredibly active last part balanced it out a bit. Still, I think the pacing was a problem.

• That all said, this movie had a very epic feel to it, especially toward the end.

Character Moments

• I was actually a little annoyed with how imbalanced the character focus was; normally Digimon is better about this, even when an episode or movie is focused on particular characters. This movie was especially Meiko, Taichi, and Yamato heavy, with a dash of Hikari. The rest of the group, with the exception of a scene here and there, did very little. But okay, character by character:

Taichi

• Wow, he’s really grown up, hasn’t he? Very nice handling of how he’s come through his conflicts, both in previous seasons and in Tri, and matured a lot. There were a few moments that stood out to me in particular: early on when the police are after them and he reminds Koushirou to use his computer to hide the Digimon while everyone else (including Koushirou) are kind of frozen in uncertainty, in Daigo’s office when he explains how he wants to handle the situation with care, and in the final scenes where he reads the underlying emotions of everyone (and particularly Meiko) in order to choose the right call to make.

• There are more scenes that were great with him (like his and Meiko’s conversation at the school) but those three in particular illustrated what makes him a strong leader imo.

Yamato

• STOP WHISPERING

• But no really he was great this movie. His conflict with Taichi over how to handle Meicoomon felt very natural this time, and the way he listened when Taichi explained how he wants to handle things in Daigo’s office was a nice moment. Other people have already pointed out the great, very subtle moment of Yamato refusing when Takeru offers him the phone while calling their parents, and of course, the last scene where he puts on the goggles and takes over (temporarily, for sure, but still) as leader and tells the team to stand up. He’s also grown up a lot, and even if he’s still temperamental it’s not without reason; he just feels very strongly, and he’s both better at expressing himself and less closed off from the others.

• There was also a nice moment between him and Koushirou, when Koushirou broke up the fight between him and Taichi, and Yamato basically seems to just trust Koushirou’s judgement; the bond between those two is very understated but very strong.

Sora

• I wish I could say a lot about her this movie but I can’t, since her plots seemed mostly wrapped up in Meiko. However, the advice she gives about not isolating yourself is very good and very meaningful coming from her, and the moment where she pulls Mimi towards her while they’re talking to their parents is really lovely.

• Sora’s just quietly being awesome in the background this movie, but that doesn’t make her less awesome in general.

Koushirou

• He figures out a few useful things throughout this movie, but mostly I noticed just how quiet he was; he’s always pretty quiet compared to most of the others, but he barely spoke this movie it felt like. However, he did have a few great moments, especially the one where he broke up the fight between Taichi and Yamato; I mentioned it briefly in Yamato’s segment, but this really displayed the dynamic between these three imo. Koushirou not only fearlessly got in the middle of the fight and physically pushed them apart, but he raised his voice too, and specifically talked to Yamato; he was backing up Taichi (as usual) but in a very interesting way. It wasn’t just “Taichi’s right” but rather “You should understand already” and there’s a huge underlying meaning there; Koushirou both understands what Taichi’s trying to do and why, and he knows that Yamato does too but just hasn’t accepted it. Not only that, but he’s trusting that Yamato will understand all of this from him, and Yamato both does and takes it as enough reason to back down. Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but I think it shows a real understanding of his friends that Koushirou didn’t always have; he’s been attuned to Taichi’s emotions and motives since 01 but not often anyone else’s, but now he can not only read his friends but communicate with them in subtle ways.

• He was the only one of the team awake when Meicoomon attacked (other than Daigo) so even though it’s actually like 2005 in universe I still think we should start #letkoushirousleep2k17

• More seriously, this both came up in Kokuhaku and in this movie, but I like that it’s being consistently established that Koushirou is also very sensitive to the Digital World, much like Hikari but probably in a different way. It’s a neat thing to me.

Mimi

• Like Sora, not much Mimi and that makes me sad because Mimi is glorious. Also the scenes that I would mention specifically for her are exactly the same ones as Sora’s, so although I wish I could say more, that’s about it.

Jyou

• THIS IS GOING ON MY PERMANENT RECORD

• Unfortunately, Jyou was also mostly a non-entity this episode. However he did speak for the audience about how much trouble Meicoomon is, so there’s that?

Takeru

• Stop dropping the ground out from under this poor child omg

• Another character who I wish I could say more about, but he didn’t do a lot this episode. That said, he was sitting next to Koushirou in most shots, so I like to think the two of them were gossiping quietly while other stuff was going on.

Hikari

• BABY. DARLING. I’M SURE YOUR BROTHER IS FINE. 8(

• Telling off Homeostasis was really awesome; it’s been a complain for awhile that things just sort of happen to Hikari without her having any agency, so seeing her basically tell Homeostasis to fuck off and get out was incredibly awesome.

• Her sensing of the Digital World’s intentions toward the Chosen was really neat and not overdone; she was very sure about the feeling she was getting but it wasn’t overly dramatic or anything. It felt very natural for her to be able to understand it.

• I still have no idea what actually happened with her and her crest glowing and the Digital World code creeping up on her and all that, but it was surprisingly well done. I’m actually really interested in her plot even if I’m not usually a big Hikari fan, and I wish she’d had more moments in this movie considering it was supposed to kind of be focused on her.

Meiko

• I want to like you, Meiko, but I just keep ending up not. :c At first I was fine with the guilt and responsibility thing, because a lot of the kids have had similar storylines, but I think that’s driving me crazy about hers is that she doesn’t seem to be trying to fix anything (or didn’t, anyway, until the very end of the movie.) It might also have been that it just went on too long and was repeated too many times from a writing standpoint, but it started to just seem like Meiko liked the attention.

• She was, however, very cute in the ghost story scene.

• She also gets major props for making the hard call at the end to try to defeat Meicoomon. I just dunno, I didn’t feel as much about her decision to do it as I did about Taichi’s decision to go along with it, maybe because it felt like he understand the situation at a deeper level than she actually did? Since she’d already given up on Meicoomon in Kokuhaku, it didn’t have same impact here, and instead kind of felt like she was just like eh, time to throw in the towel again. But I don’t know, maybe things will come together in the end for her and her plots.

Maki

• I didn’t really like her much until Loss, but at this point omg I feel so bad for her. That she’s just lost it so badly over what happened to her partner, and then the reboot failing to let them truly reunite, is just heartbreaking.

• It makes sense for her to end up at the Dark Ocean, and if she really did die there from despair it’ll be a really sad but almost fitting way for her to go out. It’s just so sad, weh.

• But I do have to ask: WHERE IS SHE GETTING ALL THESE DIFFERENT GUNS FROM?

Daigo

• Again, he’s a character that really grew on me just recently, and he and Maki wondering what the point of them being chosen if this is what happens to them is really tragic.

• That he sensed what happened to Maki was interesting, and if she really did die then I’d think it’s likely he did too the attempt to save Taichi. If so, that’s still an incredibly important thing he did, especially if it turns out he’s directly the cause of Taichi surviving. But then again, I’ll be happy if he lives as well, although I’d hope Maki does too in that case.

• Not exactly Daigo-specific, but where are the others in his and Maki’s Chosen group? Are they the last two for some reason? Do the others just not contact them? Why are they so alone?

Final Thoughts

• These are surely not going to be final but final for this post, anyway.

• This is probably my least favorite of the movies so far, but mostly because of the weak pacing and problems with some of the characters being basically non-entities.

• That said, there are several strong character moments, and the scary stories scene was cute af.

• I also really enjoyed the brief scenes with Taichi and Hikari’s mother, and how she handles her children and their friends being in danger by trying to be productive for when they come home. It’s a nice reminder of how hard this must be on the kids’ parents, just having to sit back and watch.

• Surely Taichi is alive, and I want at least SOME hugs when he returns damnit.

We were always gonna be forever

✗ TECHNICAL DETAILS

FANDOM: Digimon Adventure 01/02/Tri RATING: General Audiences. WORDCOUNT: 2 431 words PAIRING(S): Taiyama (brand new) CHARACTER(S): Taichi Kamiya & Yamato Ishida, with background cameos from zombies. GENRE: It seemed like the right thing to do. TRIGGER WARNING(S): - SUMMARY: Taichi seems willing to risk his life for the weirdest things. NOTE: I honestly wish I could have done a 10k + fic digging into the how-s and why-s and how much-s of this whle fic (where zombies are, really, more of an excuse than anything else) but alas, I neither have the time nor the energy, so have this instead <3

DIGIOTPWEEK 2017: [Day 1: Coffeeshop AU] [Day 2: Fantasy AU] [Day 3: Profession AU] [Day 4: Mythology AU] [Read on AO3]

“Crap!” Taichi swears once they’ve left the zombies behind them and shoved themselves into an empty alley, “we need to go back!”

He’s patting at the pockets of his ill-fitted cargo shorts, hands growing more restless each times he comes up empty handed, and Yamato’s throat constricts in apprehension.

“Did you lose you Digivice?”

There’s nothing else Yamato would ever consider going back to a compromised zone for, but for this...he’d walk in more dangerous situations than that for a Digivice, no matter whose. There’s the sentimental value, of course—that alone would be enough to make him risk a lot of things for them—but also these things haven’t even begun to lose power after sixteen years of extended use without battery change. They’re the only way they have to help their digimon partners digivolve, act as distress signal, maps and, with a little mastery of the Morse code, communication devices.

They’ve gotten Yamato and the others out of more than one delicate situation, allowed them to rescue Mr. Inoue and Mr. Kido out of a horde of corpses, and generally greatly contributed to their camp’s safety.

Sentiments aside, the Digivices are just too essential to lose.

“Who do you take me for?” Taichi hisses with a look of indignation to make a shier man cower, “Of course I didn’t lose my Digivice!”

“Then what are you making a fuss for? We’re not going back there.”

“But we’ve got to!”

Taichi’s face looks pleading, twisted with distress at the idea of leaving whatever it is behind, but Yamato refuses to be budged. There are at least fifteen corpses in this grocery store. They’re both black and brown with grime and blood as it is, breathing short and heartbeats fast after escaping by the skin of their teeth. Even assuming they survive a second run in the shop, which is a big assumption already, getting this late would mean skipping on their pharmacy run and risking being out of camp at night anyway.

There’s no way Yamato is going to let either of them go back there, especially with Weregarurumon and Greymon stuck at camp to help with the repairs.

“Taichi,” Yamato insists, hoping it’ll be the end of it, “we’re leaving.”

“No!”

They wince at the same time when Taichi’s voice echoes against the buildings on either side of them, the tone of his despair lingering against neatly parked but abandoned cars. It only takes a glance for them to move out of the alleyway, one rattling corpse already moving toward them, and Yamato doesn’t bother repressing a sigh of relief when Taichi moves away from the grocery store and toward the old commercial center their community chose as a base of operation.

They jog rather than run, keeping their strength even as they put some distance between them and danger, slipping into practiced synchronization without needing to think about it. Their hands find each other as they run, the comfort of a familiar gesture easing the knot of fear in Yamato’s guts.

Even through the end of the world, they still have each other, if nothing else.

“We really—” Taichi has to pause so he can gulp more air, sweat drawing lines in the layer of dirt and blood on his forehead before he can finish: “We need to go back. I’ve got to—”

“You’ve got to let go,” Yamato interrupt, waiting until he’s done hissing to breathe in, “I’ll knock you out and put you on my back if I have to but there’s literally nothing in the world I’d be willing to let you risk your life for!”

“But it’s for you!”

Yamato’s too stunned to reply immediately, and the long, plaintive sound of a dying animal punctuates the silence that follows, Taichi’s harsh breathing too loud between them as he tries to get it back to normal. In his chest, Yamato’s heart feels like it’s holding its breath, making itself tiny to leave Yamato’s brain enough space to process the declaration.

“What do you mean, ‘it’s for me’? What was it?”

The emotions warring over Taichi’s face are so intense it’s almost like watching a movie in stop motion: anguish, fear, crimson embarrassment flicker over his features in rapid succession, then something like intense resignation and a deep breath for courage before he says:

“It’s a ring.”

Well. You have to give it to Taichi: he neither stuttered, nor muttered.

Yamato’s brain, on the other hand….

“A what?”

“A ring,” Taichi repeats, face still redder than Koushiro’s hair but head held high, “with your crest on it. Had it custom made and everything.”

There’s Yamato’s what on the what now?

What?

“Why would you even buy me a ring?”

Taichi shrugs, like he’s fully accepted that this is the moment he dies—whether he thinks the cause will be embarrassment or Yamato is still unclear—before he gives a rueful little smile and asks:

“What do people usually buy rings for?”

Oh, okay! There’s something wrong with Yamato’s ears.

Or his brain.

Or maybe the past three months were nothing but a massive set of nightmare, and this is the part where something so weird happens that Yamato wakes up.

“Were you gonna—”

“Yes.”

“Are you—”

“You know me,” Taichi challenges, the red slowly going out of his cheeks, “you tell me if I’m serious.”

Yamato would answer that, he really would! It’s just that his brain doesn’t quite remember how to make his mouth work.

Of course Taichi wouldn’t joke around about proposing, especially not with Yamato. The guy knows what his issues are, how uptight he can be on making words match the exact and real nature of a relationship. Taichi wouldn’t just step all over that with a joke on that topic.

Somehow though, knowing that doesn’t help.

Today should have been an ordinary day, okay? Run into an abandoned store, take what they can carry to help the group survive, run back, try not to get eaten. Rinse and repeat as long as it’s necessary. Instead Yamato is stuck in place in a part of town they’ve got no business in, feeling like a certain bushy-haired someone just drop-kicked him into the Twilight Zone.

“Are you okay?”

Yamato got to the ground, somehow. He can feel the cold of it seeping into his ass, the harsh solidity of a wall with peeling paint at his back. Taichi, crouched down to put their eyes at the same level, has a hand on his shoulder, partly for comfort and partly as a way to keep himself upright.

There’s really no proper answer to that question.

Well. Yamato could go for the familiar route and swear until the static’s gone from his brain. Or, you know, just ask what the fuck is wrong with Taichi.

There’s so much vulnerability in Taichi’s eyes now, an incertitude he rarely ever unveils in front of anyone, Yamato can’t bring himself to do that. Taichi has been the most important person in his life for over sixteen years now, after all, so Yamato knows exactly how much of a gift this level of emotional openness is.

Still….

“We’re not even dating!”

Yamato’s voice pierces at his own ears, too high and strangler to be fully intelligible, but Taichi must get it because he winces, the ‘yeaaaaah, about that….’ written all over the tight tilt of his mouth. At least Yamato isn’t the only one freaking out here.

“I know, it’s stupid,” Taichi apologizes at last, hand moving away from Yamato’s shoulder, “let’s just forget it.”

“Wha—oh no you don’t!”

It’s easy to snatch Taichi’s wrist out of the air and hold it tight, a lifeline as much as a shackle destined to keep him right where he is. It’s an old dynamic between them, this tug of war between their respective brands of emotional constipation and their mutual desire to know what goes on in the other’s head.

It makes it easy to give Taichi a hard stare and warn in a low voice:

“You don’t get to drop a bomb like that and walk away! Start explaining, Yagami.”

Taichi rolls his eyes at that, but his shoulders unwind a little and, to Yamato’s relief, there’s a small smile playing at the edge of his lips.

“Remember when we had dinner with the Russian ambassador?”

“Uh, duh?”

To be fair, it’s Yamato who offered to come along. Taichi was nervous about misstepping or appearing too conciliatory or weak, and since Yamato lived in Russia for a year, he figured a little bit of a cultural bridge couldn’t hurt. It’s not like he minded people thinking he was Taichi’s boyfriend, anyway, so they marked him as a plus one.

Four hours of painfully stiff attempts at polite conversation later, Yamato was about ready to strangle Taichi right then and there if it meant getting out. Also they heard the news about the very first case of Zombie sickness that evening, but it wouldn’t be relevant until the real outbreak three months later.

Anyway. Yes, Yamato does remember.

“You were perfect,” Taichi smiles, as impervious to Yamato’s sarcasm as he ever was, “I swear I’ve heard about you being a perfectly delicious person enough times after that night to last me a lifetime. Your behavior was impeccable through and through.”

“What else was I gonna do? Tap dance on the table?”

Taichi blinks, then snorts at the remark, laughing for longer than the joke truly warrants, but it’s not like Yamato’s about to complain. It’s always been easy for him to make Taichi laugh, but it never got any less rewarding.

“There’s my favorite asshole!” Taichi wheezes after the worst of his laughter has passed, “I missed that.”

“I never stopped—”

“No, I mean...during the meal. At the embassy. Everyone was so charmed and fascinated and I kept thinking it wasn’t you. I wished you’d say something kind of offensive or start making sarcastic quips or whatever. I couldn’t wait until we went home and we’d spend an hour bitching about how ridiculous the thing was.”

The way Taichi’s expression goes from amused to wistful, eyes never leaving Yamato’s before he starts his next sentence is so fascinating, Yamato couldn’t look away even if he tried.

“It took a while before I remembered ‘home’ didn’t mean the same place for both of us.”

Yamato remembers that, too. Not the ‘home’ thing, but he remembers looking at Taichi somewhere just before dessert, hoping for comfort and finding him lost in thought instead, melancholy etched in every inch of his face as he looked down at his hands.

At least now he knows what brought that on.

His voice is more gentle than it normally would be when he asks:

“So you decided proposing was the way to go?”

“To be fair,” Taichi says with a small smile and a helpless shrug, “I did consider offering we shared a flat first, or at least asking you out.”

“Good to know you remember what normal people do.”

Yamato makes sure to squeeze at Taichi’s wrist as he says it, relieved when Taichi’s eyes drift skyward in answer.

“Yes,” he says with the obnoxious patience of one trying to explain something really simple to someone who’s being unusually slow, “I do remember. But I thought about it and I figured...we’re past dating now, aren’t we? I mean. Maybe I’m wrong but...going to restaurants and sitting there like awkward idiots while we ask each other surface-level questions? Really? You already know what I’m looking for in a relationship. I know the things you hate. I know about your messed up brain, and the things that make you cry and everything. So I just—dating’s temporary, you know? And I guess I just…I wanted us to be forever, you know?”

“We were always going to be forever, you idiot.”

Taichi’s mouth goes slack at that, and Yamato snorts as the flush returns to his friend’s cheeks, moisture shining at the corner of his eyes. Taichi wasn’t wrong, with his little speech: they do know each other better than anyone.

They’ve known each other for seventeen years, have been facing death for just as long. They know each other’s ticks and quirks, like how Taichi knows what angles to use to get Yamato to budge out of a position his stubbornness would normally keep him into, or how acutely aware Yamato is that he can leave Taichi gutted with a well-timed bout of emotional straightforwardness.

It’s just as well they care about each other too much to ever intentionally use the other’s weakness to hurt.

“I’ve known that since we first got Omegamon.”

In his more emotional moments, Yamato almost feels like he got his first inkling of it when he realized he could trust Taichi with taking care of Takeru. It wasn’t even a judgment of Taichi’s ability to care for a child, really, more of a statement of Yamato’s ability to trust anyone other than himself.

He’s learned to trust other people since, of course. At least twenty-four of them. It’s just not the same, though. Building Omegamon isn’t like in the fantasy books, where the protagonists get cut open and someone else’s heart is shoved next to their souls, but it does require the knowledge that, should this kind of things happen, it’d be okay.

Yamato would never want what he feels to bush Takeru so closely, for many reasons he couldn’t name if his life depended on it, but with Taichi...yeah. He thinks he could deal with his soul touching Taichi’s.

He’s not sure how to convey that exactly but, lucky for him, he doesn’t have to. Taichi...he’s not always the most emotionally perceptive person in the world, but he gets Yamato in a way no one else does, and they rarely ever have trouble communicating.

Being able to put what he’s feeling in a simple squeeze of his fingers and know he’s been heard is one of the many perks of that.

“So,” Taichi says after a long, pregnant but somehow comfortable silence, “not that I want to ruin the moment or anything but, with regard to what I said….”

On impulse, Yamato leans forward to plant a kiss on Taichi’s cheek, warmth curling in his belly before the words are even out of his mouth.

“I’m sure we can find someone wiling to perform some kind of ceremony.”

Technically, same sex marriages aren’t legal in Japan yet but hey, it’s the zombie apocalypse, and they’ve saved the world three times already.

The law can suck it.

(There is also a moment of R.O.D!Taichi for Timing) {If it works for full out-line, I might keep it in, as it works for 'verse} However, the work is overall/near-wholly 02-focused (so far)! - There is a small amount of out-of-context scenes, However, they're all meant to overall parallel the lyric.

{I have not yet re-written the DaiHika storyline involved with the past fic-verse of mine; So please take this work as a sort of preview to it!}

(Further lyric{s} under ‘read more’!)

Digimon Adventure{s} x Kagerou Project ~ AMV “Shinigami Record” A.M.V Preview {Short Edit} [Music (C) Jin, Singer: I.A. / Vocaloid] Featuring implied DUO/SHIP: Taichi Yagami [“Taichi (Tai) Kamiya” in U.S. Localization] x Koushiro(u) Izumi [“Koushiro (Izzy) Izumi”] [Taishiro(u)] {Links to past A.M.V.s/edits in this series here!}

[Note for this one: Somewhat angst-implied] {But perhaps with a lingering hopeful feeling?} (It’s also still very unfinished for now so you get a minimal ending instead?) [The links below contain inspiration from a fan*-made video + {*It’s fan-made / not official but it pretty much tells the exact actual story} information/lyrics on the full song / originating series, but it’s also not a direct / exact parody (still very inspired)]

Short Version Summary: The timeline of Inquisitive Heartless Koushiro stuck in Vade{r}mon’s dimension; where Koushiro was ‘stuck’ ‘mentally’ for 71 days in novel; known in the Adventure novel as the “Room of the Mysterious Universe”

{Note: In Adventure Episode #24, Koushiro loses Koushiros “Inquisitive Heart”; In the U.S. localization, this became (was localized to) “Curiosity”, however, the Digimon Adventure novel had more context on the state of it being Koushiro’s actual “Inquisitive Heart” that Koushiro had lost.}

Lyrics Preview:

... BUT EVEN N O W ,

I STILL                                        ... LOVE YOU.

I {still} love you = {“Aishiteru”} - implied from Koushiro to Taichi here.

{Do Not Repost or Reproduce without my Permission} {Do Not Remove Caption}

SHORT VERSION SUMMARY #2: - THEY’RE MAYBE STUCK IN A   TIME LOOP … - Do Not let Koushiro Izumi get stuck in a certain Dimension

“ IF SO, I’m NOT INTERESTED anymore , ”

... Should I disappear into this world ALONE ?

{ I DON’T WANT TO                         F O R G I V E  Y O U }

... BUT EVEN N O W ,

 I STILL                                         ... LOVE YOU .

Headcanon name: Kami(ko?) (An “English dub”-style localized name would probably be: Cami with the ‘C’) [In my childhood headcanons, “Camille”, meaning “Light”, was also possible; Koushiro’s name, in comparison, also contains the kanji for “Light”, which is the exact same as Hikari’s name meaning!] (Thus, ‘Camille’ would be fitting as a sort of ‘U.S. Dub’ name but...?)

(why bother keeping the “-ko”, etc. when you have A LITERAL psuedo? “ GOD ” hanging out inside of your body??) [+Kami{ko}’s friends probably roll with it anyway and give it as a nickname BECAUSE, W E L L -----]

( I couldn’t think of anything specific to do for this day’s prompt, so, compiles a bunch of AUs verses Aesthetic-like gifs with implied headcanons ) [ and also, a ficverse!Homeostasis quote featuring my “writing” / inspirations ]

( note: if you don’t want to bother with fic/my writing, you may prefer trying the AMVs verse [ it has cool music ?!...] ! )

[ + once upon a time, Oct. 25th, 2017, one day after my birthday. yes, I made a Taishiro Fan-soundtrack using THIS particular track as inspiration, remembered a certain other favorite series of mine had a ton of cool/actually fitting-for-the-themes/plot music, realized “ HEY I MAYBE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE AN AMV TO THAT SONG ”, and things kind of ... uh ... spiraled as I came up with too many AUs to list + EPILOGUE-ERA AUs / HEADCANONS ESPECIALLY INCLUDED ]

... And, you know, I don’t regret that I’ve worked on this 30k+ WORDS/AMVs. Even if only got a couple reviews initially, (I know, my writing is poor) [ there’s reasons for that that would be way too time-consuming to explain ] I met some amazingly kind fans via it I’ve received other nice comments since, too, honestly, after all the hard work/time I poured into those self-indulgent AMVs, I can only say to those who encouraged, supported, and chatted with me, ( me, a person with autism + severe anxiety who was terrified of posting anything with my deeper thoughts, ) those who gave it a chance, thank you so much. I’m genuinely SO HAPPY if my writing/fanworks could help ANYONE. to be honest I wrote more like 50k+ total words including extra shortfic bits but I got cold feet about posting the rest of them for now, I’m sorry... maybe someday I’ll post them to a more private/personal space where I can actually control (again) who follows me & interacts & follows my rules because ... yeah, some other people didn’t do this

there were numerous times I nearly gave up contributing Adventure contents including right away, from the very beginning, especially after seeing / continuing to see all the anti Adventure/Tri/canon Adv!Chosen hate/over excessive criticisms, and ... I’m glad I didn’t

* D O N O T R E B L O G * TEST POST / TO BE REPOSTED TO OTHER DIGIBLOG * LIKES / RESPECTFUL COMMENTS OK

I DID IT     /I FINALLY/     /HAVE A PRELIMINARY AMV OF THIS ONE ..... OMG

" Toumei Answer " ( can be read as "Transparent Answer", "Invisible Answer" .... )

- more Repeat-verse, THIS TIME IT'S VERY TRI ( MAINLY KOKUHAKU, MEIKO ) - a lot more aesthetics in general though ? - however there ARE some slightly spoilery scenes from Bokura no Mirai - if you know DAIGO spoiler or Kyousei's as well, Taichi spoiler, Meichi implied scenes pre-BNM ending etc you already know it - a bit of Meiko and Meicoomon's final scenes are in here too though ..... ;;; ( only small bits though ) (but yeah) - a VERY tiny bit of Kizuna trailer scenes are in here, too ( about 2~3 quick flash scenes or so ) [ more for aesthetics bUT ] - a tiny tiny bit of " To Sora " but it's less of Sora and more of . flowers . yes

- ok so this AMV - this one is my attempt at comparing and contrasting: -- Taichi, Koushiro, & Meiko in general; + Tri!Taichi, Tri!Koushiro; + themes surrounding their storylines/developments ? - as well as : Taishiro, vs Meichi, ( t b h I might be implying at least a few TaiKouMei polyship potentials ) - basically like a character comparisons/introspections video in attempts to point out Things I Am Intrigued By - in regards to their storylines, behaviors [ during Tri's plot especially ], and such and such - basically: tAICHI ..... KOUSHIRO AND MEIKO ARE ..... VERY VERY SIMILAR IN WAYS ACTUALLY ..........

technical notes:

- THERE ARE SOME GLITCHES I NOTICED THEM hopefully they will like - fix themselves when . I re-edit . and add subs . y e a h - ( WMM tends to fix itself upon re-saves, etc. ) - Windows Movie Maker aLSO Began The Crashing towards the middle - I had to split it up by the end of 1st choruses - and re-splice it all together - hence there are some frequently repeated moments ( the classroom scenes ) I will . REPLACE A COUPLE OF THOSE LATER but yeah - was using them as filler to parallel the original video too OTL - so any repeating scenes I might throw in a few more moments of Koushiro to replace them ; etc. later on - CURRENTLY THIS IS UNSUBBED HENCE THIS PLACEHOLDER POST - I PLAN TO ADD SUBS EVENTUALLY, BUT - I PROBABLY WILL NOT BE FINISHED UNTIL JUNE/MID-SUMMER

PLEASE SEE END NOTES FOR ORIGINATING SERIES WARNINGS, ETC.

LYRICS:

...It’s not even bustling , And in that kind of everyday ...

I would sit in my seat many times over as if ... DRIFTING... .

" SO , how about you ? "

As if TRYING AGAIN ,

... The NUMBERLESS TEXTBOOK   ... SAID something .. .

( aah ~ .... )

... If you mean my RESULTS, then , ... Well , I guess they’re   fine   .

... Getting a “ three-digit ‘ perfect ’ score ” on recycled paper.

In the seat beside me , ... With an embarrassed smile ,

... YOU took your seat with a “ low-digit score ” .

Outside the window , I don’t seek anything out .

Because   AN ANSWER   soon RISES UP ...

" ... If that’s the case , then hey , that’s   PRETTY  BORING "

Saying that , Y O U always SEEMED to be  ENJOYING YOURSELF ...

[ Chorus 1 ]

D O N ' T  T O U C H ,

... the   HEART that wants to DISAPPEAR   ANY MORE THAN THIS ,

Even today , it can’t be seen anywhere on this earth ...

The A L A R M that rings out:

TELLS ME     A L O N E ,

" You’re   A   ' COLD-HEARTED '   GUY , H U H "

Even if I put together those    MYSTERIOUS ANSWERS    after so long I’ll still be able to understand them completely somehow

" At this rate ,  EVEN IF   I   DIE ,

SOMEONE ELSE  w i l l  j u s t  REPLACE ME "

... Just whispering that ,

... is so     F O O L I S H . [ Verses 2 ]

Though these drifting days   REPEAT ,

... I get this STRANGE FEELING [ whenever ] YOU'RE   a b s e n t

... Well, whatever happens, the test that is returned tomorrow

... Will probably have a result that hasn’t changed for the better ,

( aah ~ ... )

In that kind of everyday that wasn’t even bustling,

... Somewhere, SOMETHING   may have

.. ALREADY GONE AMISS ...

THE COLOR  of   YOUR HAIR ,

And   your  S M I L E ,

... Someone may already be  U N A B L E  to  REMEMBER IT .

" From THE WINDOW , how is

That   EMPTY SEAT   r e f l e c t e d ? "

I thought I had  KNOWN YOU , B U T

I HAD UNDERSTOOD   /// NOT ONE THING ///   ABOUT YOU .

[ Chorus 2 ]

The days that would surely have continued

Had I been able to understand even a little more ,

Every time I  STOP THE ALARM  that  RINGS OUT , I realize

... That   THEY'RE GONE .....

[ Final Chorus ]

In the classroom, the HEART THAT WANTED

TO DISAPPEAR was INJURED

But kept on CONCEALING IT and LAUGHED ,

MANY TIMES OVER

YOU , who  LEFT FROM HERE  and  VANISHED ,

   ///   I  WON'T  FORGET   ///     YOUR      S M I L E ,

... NOT   even   T O M O R R O W .... ... .. .

slight but significant TRIGGER WARNINGS for the originating song: [ relevant MORE to K@gepro’s original and LESS to Repeatverse BUT ]:  - In K@gepros original version, the song is about a specific girl and boy duo only [ not KageDaze boy+girl, another duo ] ( in my version, I'm throwing in Koushiro as an extra + for . fun . ficverse things ) [ both Koushiro and Meiko are paralleling the girl ; Taichi the boy because Main Charas sIGH ] - since it's Kagepros, of course, there are the psuedo-deaths there too - with Kagepros however, STRONG TW: this song very heavily implies " s.uicide " of the girl of the duo - however in the end it's a LOT more like KAGEPROS SPOILER FOLLOWS: the psuedo-deaths self sacrifice because - the characters initially THINK she has died via those means and at a point she probably had - HOWEVER as the story develops she gets second chances and different outcomes/outlooks sO ..... YES

the original K@gerou Project video for timings, etc. comparisons is here.:

PLEASE note the warnings mentioned above if you watch.
