Limbus Tamers

The limbus brainrot is terminal and digimon has been worming its way back so why not combine the two together. I’m not the biggest Digimon nerd (mainly watched some Adventure, 02 and Tamers and played Digimon world 3 and Cybersleuth) so I’ve been using Wikimon to help with the evolution lines, while yes I could just mix and max anything I tried to use Digimon that actually evolve into one another.

I may do another one with Dante, Charon and Vergilius plus any Sinner I want revisit. So onward to my dubious picks!

For Yi Sang I chose this line mostly for his desire to have wings and his association with crows. Plus Yatagaramon is cool.

For Faust I focused on her witch imagery, what with her base E.G.O. giving her a broom and her codename being Walpurgisnacht, and her vast knowledge with Impmon being a stand in for Mephistopheles (I know Mephismon exist I already had settled on witchmon and needed a rookie). AncientWisemon could have gone to Yi Sang since he invented the mirror we use to pull the gacha but it still have that sorcerer vibe.

For La Creatura I settled for the Guilmon line mostly because Gallantmon/Dukemon, being a Royal Knight, fitted with her knightly delusions and also because I remember Guilmon going feral at some points in Tamers. Plus if we go for Dark Digivolutions,when Don completely snaps she could go down the Megidramon (or even ChaosDukemon) route similarly to Takato.

I hesitated a bit with Ryoshu so I ended doing both ideas: I kinda cobbled this one together trying to concile her ties to fire (her E.G.O inflict burn,the “cooking” of the Kebab and that one picture of her burning everything using as her steed) and art with Etemon being a singer and Piedmon being a clown (and circus artist in general). Plus the Dark Master have throwing knives/swords.

This one was more was more based on her swordplay and the fact she’s ... ok maybe not “honourable” but she’d rather not do it the “coward’s way”, she straight up refused to disguise herself during the casino heist and wanted to face the Shi assassin head on in Canto IV. So Musyamon popped into my mind and then went up the evo line to try and keep the samurai/ronin theme and Kunemon is here because I couldn’t use Kotemon as it doesn’t digivolve into Musyamon.

Mr Salt got the Andromon line because he’s very robotic at times, a cog in the machine if you will, plus he is a tank of a man so Guardromon fits well. Also I thought it would be funny if somehow the machine Digimon ended up being more prone to make judgements than its human partner.

I didn’t know where to go with Hong Lu, I tried with the Devas and little more with Lopmon’s line then I saw QueenChessmon and went “Chess is pastime for hoity-toity rich folk and Hong Lu is a rich boy” and went from there. Not really satisfied but it just clicked in the moment. ... If Hong Lu is playing some 5d chess with us I SWEAR TO -

Another double feature with the other sinner with double seats privilege ... this was completely incidental. This one is based on the brutish side of Heathcliff though Ogremon can be cunning as can our angry british. Titamon is also connected to revenge (specifically against the Olympos XII) so it fits as well. I know Rebellimon doesn’t digivolve to Titamon but fuck it ! I didn’t want Digitamamon on here and that’s the only exception I made, I just wanted to keep mean green demon all the way.

This one came frame from a flash about Telepole Heathcliff and since He’s a bastard I couldn’t him give a regular Gabumon.

I just had to give Fishmael a Whamon because of Moby Dick. As for the rest: I picked Gomamon because I thought it’d be funny to have a laid back partner with how rigid she can be; Dolphmon to transition between Gomamon and Whamon and Plesiomon because it’s a traditional Mega for Gomamon alongside Vikemon.

I must admit being stumped and just going “Waifumon go !”. Might revisit her with a more fitting line sometime.

For Sinclair at first I wanted to give him an avian line then stumbled upon Tsukaimon digivolving into Pidmon and went “time to go the angel route” as a spin on Patamon. Outside of MagnaAngemon (and Angewomon for that matter) I tried not to use Adventure/02 digimon. I picked Dominimon but hesitated between it, ClavisAngemon and SlashAngemon.

For Outism I first wanted to have an Olympos XII member then wondered whether or not there was a trojan horse digimon, Lo and behold there was ! As for the rest I worked my way down : Cherrymon being a duplicitous tree (he tried to manipulate Yamato during the Dark Master arc) fit Outis being suspicious, kiwimon is kind of a filler pick and Alraumon is a fake Palmon.

Finally for Gregor I picked the Wormmon line though with some changes. I chose Snimon instead of Stingmon to harken to G Corp Gregor and while there’s a roachmon I felt it was too on the nose. As for Bloomlordmon I hesitated with going with GranKuwagamon or HeraclesKabuterimon but leaned more on this one mainly to distance a bit from bugs since Gregor has two plant based E.G.O.

That should be it for now.

i hope it's okay to ask, i'm curious, but i'd like to know how does astereus / the starwake system have an alter based on dante break, micah's character? please correct me if there's a better way of phrasing this question. i love reading your posts about them! ❤️

Ooohhh, this is a really good question, thank you so much for asking and giving us an opportunity to talk about this topic! These alters who are based on individuals outside the system are Introjects ( specifically, Factives / factual alters are alters created after real people and Fictives / fictional alters are alters after fictional characters, although there are introject alters who can represent after abstract ideas, tropes, archetypes, etcetera, which us cluster personally call them conceptual alters or Conceptives ).

Dante Break was a character of Micah's who xe was extremely connected with since xe was fourteen, Dante being xyr most comfort and all favourite character that xe created for xyr special project, Beyond the Unknown, and even roleplayed it on social platforms during high school years, roleplaying being one of the things that strengthened xyr writing passion and dream of being a published writer when xe accepted xe couldn't take the path of becoming an astronaut due to xyr amnesia and disabilities.

It's unknown when Durante ( alternative name of the Starwaker based on Dante to avoid confusion ) came into being or if it was originally an alter fragment that wasn't fully developed who took upon the Dante Break identity, but Durante initially existed to help Micah ( as a teen while xe faced depression, derealization-depersonalization, self-hatred, and internalized ableism ), cope with the loss of xyr ultimate dream of being an astronaut while teaching xem the importance of carving xyr path in xyr own life.

As explained from our research with own personal understanding and experiences with OSDDID, It's highly common that systems have a large amount of introject alters after fictional characters who one or more alters always been attached to or become more hyperfocused on at this time. These characters are the easiest sources of joy and comfort that the brain would introject from to help the affected alter better adjust in their life with their current health state and living situation.

However, it is possible indeed that alters can be created after real people who the alter(s) know, may it be based on someone who had a significant positive impact to that alter such as a caregiver or negative like an abuser. Although keep in mind, introject alter =/= their actual source. The introject alter may relate to their source in some degree, but in the end, they are their own person who can choose to disconnect with their source or maintain their source identity for their comfort.

To add our own personal experiences, we do have several introject alters, few prominent being based on Sun and Lito ( and suspectingly Wolfgang ) from Sense8, Jang Nan-gam from A Killer Paradox, few of our original characters, we even had an alter based on the " monster tamer " character archtype when I was hyperfocused on watching Pokémon and Digimon during the summer two years ago and this alter deeply loved to explore and interact with bugs. He really loved ducks as well and would have us watch duck related videos with him.

Durante was highly active when Micah ( and Philos when fronting while Micah was unavailable ) portrayed it for the show, hearing its suggestions and comments at times, but xe only thought xe would be exhausted and slip into the Dante Break persona when xe's used to being it for xyr arts career. Durante would sometimes be co-present with Micah while xe's acting or being interviewed, which it and especially Philos were the main reasons why people came to speculate that Micah had DID.

Phoebus and Philos always knew Durante's existence, then soon Phobos, but Micah became aware some time after xe got the diagnosis on their DID, exploring their inner world in one of the first few times and met it who was loitering about.

“This is how I think of “shipping”: When you start shipping someone, it starts out as a little sailboat. As hints are seen (in the actual show, movie, book, game, etc.), the sailboat slowly grows larger. When it becomes canon, the boat becomes a giant pirate ship with cannons (get it?). If the people suddenly break up, that means the ship ran into a giant Broken-Love-Iceberg.“

-me (HarmonyTRE)

(P. S. All of these I ship platonically too, and the younger couples are only wholesome. NONE of these I ship in more than romantic ways. And some of them I don’t ship now, but shipped when I was younger so they feel nostalgic. So if the ship seems odd, it’s probably that asdfghjkl.)

Me: I'm going to do something for Odaiba day!

Also me: ...time to revive the dumb Detroit: Become Digital AU from last year!

ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

This was kinda weird to write in a way. The combining of DBH and Digimon elements made my brain go.. “heeey, hol up” haha.

I decided to call the Digivice in this world a CyberTechD, so when you see CT-D that's what it is. ^^ Also, Tamers can summon various, temporary, items to assist in battle because....-shrugs-.

TW for uh...major injury I guess. An android gets disarmed. >;3c

A tip about the series of Digimon kidnappings was what brought Gavin and Nines to this suspiciously empty house, in the quieter part of town.

“Well,” Gavin tsked, “Isn't this sus?”

“This some kind of shitty prank?” Dante huffed.

Nines began scanning the area. “Or a trap?”

Gavin made a noise of agreement, the uneasy feeling -that everyone else fuckin' dismissed- was getting stronger. “...So how about we leave since this a bust?”

“Agreed.” Dante tugged his neckerchief. “I'm getting the heebies.”

“Duck!” Was all the warning Dante got before the roar of blue fire shot past him.

Dante yelped, hitting the ground and covering his head. He glared at Arc. “What the hell was that?”

Gavin spun, stumbling back a bit, his surprise swiftly turning to anger as he saw what Arc shot out of the air. On the ground, still smoldering, was a weakly sparking control collar.

“What the fuck!”

“We'll head them off!”

Nines and Arc were off like a shot towards the alleyway between the houses.

It took a few beats before Gavin and Dante scrambled after them.

“Nines!” Gavin called to their retreating backs. “You asshole! We talked about this!”

Dante -naturally faster- glanced back, sticking out his tongue. “Ha! Come on, speed up human!”

“Fuck off!” Gavin growled. It wasn't his fault that all his partners possessed inhuman abilities.

Nines and Dante were probably parkouring about like the showoffs they were. Thank the gods that Arc took pity on him and stayed within range so Gavin didn't get completely left behind. The alleyway took a few twists and turns before opening up into a large semi-empty lot, a few abandoned shipping containers littering the area. They arrived in the lot a minute or two after Nines did, Dante perched on his shoulders.

“H-hey.” Gavin panted. “What ha-have I...fuck...said about leaving me behind?”

Nines smirked at him. “Perhaps we need to rework your work-out regimen.”

“Y-yeah? You can shove-”

“Our assailants fled this way. We didn't want them to get away.”

Placing his hands on his hips, Gavin frowned as he looked around. “Then were the hell are they? What do your android eyes see?”

Nines' lips thinned. “I'm...not entirely sure. There's some sort of interference.”

“Tch, so much for “advanced technology”.”

Nines tsked. “Detective, you know perfectly well...”

Dante rolled his eyes as the two began to bicker. Hopping off of Nines' shoulder, he toddled over and pat Arc's arm.

“Good job frying that collar buddy. You sensing anything?”

“You are welcome.” A slight smile graced his muzzle. “The growing frequency of these collars is getting...worrying I must say.” Sniffing the air he frowned. “To your other question. Yes and no. There is a faint trace of Digimon in the area, but it does not smell old. Just like the last time.”

“Right.” Dante looked around, knowing exactly what Arc was getting at. “Not good.”

Looking back at their humanoid partners, Dante rolled his eyes again. Nines was staring passively -with a hint of amusement- as Gavin scowled up at him. If this was any other time Dante would’ve tried to smash their stupid faces together because god damn.

“Yo! Deal with your UST some other time. We've got company.”

That snapped them out of their little stare down. They didn't even have time to be properly flustered as two Digimon materialized out of the darkness caused by the shipping containers.

Since the kidnapped Digimon were more frequently shown in their rookie or in-training forms on their missing reports. These Digimon being in their higher form made it harder to find the exact match; only a rough estimate given how chaotic 'volution lines tended to be. Then again, the glowing red collars they wore gave them a pretty good clue that these were more than likely their 'mons.

“Ah, hell!” A hidden voice groaned. Unfortunately, Nines couldn't pinpoint from where. “We were promised a rare prototype 'mon and a mutt that would fetch a good price!”

Another laughed mockingly. “And all we got was some half-blind devil and a shaggy mutt. What a bust!”

“How 'bout you come out and say that to my face!” Dante growled.

“Wait, wait.” The first voice hissed quieting down and completely ignoring the irate Impmon. “Take a closer look at the scruffy mutt, man. Wasn't Cyberlife experimentin' with those crazy x-antibodies or whatever?”

“No shit? That one of them?”

“I think so.”

Nines' eyes narrowed, his sensitive hearing catching the thugs conversation. “They're planning something.” He muttered to his team.

“Tch.” Gavin's hand hovered over his CT-D.

All the while, the Digimon watched them with a blank, unblinking gaze. Standing unnervingly still. Certainly not the demeanor of a Digimon ready to fight.

“We can't attack them.” Nines hissed, nudging Gavin's arm. “They're the missing partner Digimon. I'm sure of that.”

“You think I don't know that?” Gavin hissed back, eyes darting around attempting to catch even a glimpse of the kidnappers. “They're going to attack, you know that. We can not, not fight back.”

“Don't worry. We'll go easy on them.” Dante winked.

Gavin gave Dante a warning look. “You better.”

Arc nodded. “Rendering them unconscious would be sufficient.”

At once, the Digimon unfroze and began to trot stiffly towards him.

“Shimaunimon and Gaogamon.” Nines scanners told him. “Both Champion level.”

“It's only two, this shouldn't take too long.” Gavin scoffed.

As if on cue a couple of flashes came from the far corner of the lot, behind a row shipping containers. A Blackgreymon and Peckmon joined the fray.

“Fuckin' really? Hey, you catch that Nines?” Gavin nodded towards the flash.

Nines frowned. Why would they give up their location so readily? “...Yes.”

“Oh?” Dante smirked, bouncing on his toes readily. “Four against two? I'm game!”

Then braced himself. “Let's do this Arc!”

Arc nodded. “Let's go.”

(Cue Brave Heart ( •̀ω•́ ))

Impmon digivolve to... Gabumon digivolve to...

“..Blackgatomon!” “...Garurumon!”

~(too lazy to write battle)~

“Lightning Paw!”

“Two down! Two to go!” Dante cried as he incapacitated the Blackgreymon, their control collar snapping.

Arc just shook his head at his rambunctious partnermon. “Actually, three more.” He growled, before bounding off to intercept the Gaogamon and newly digivolved Aquilamon, shooting off Howling Blasters as he went.

“Fuck! Another?! How many do these assholes have? What is this? Gotta kidnap them all?” Gavin rushed to gather the unconscious Pagumon to set them beside the Elecmon. “Hey! Remember to hold back, yeah? They're not fighting you willingly!”

“Spiral Claw!”

“Yeah, yeah.” Dante tsked, dodging the Peckmon. “Don't have to tell me twice! Lightning kick!”

A Pinamon hit the ground. Scared and confused, but still conscious.

“Grand Horn!”

“I wouldn't have to- Oh, fuck!” Gavin growled, summoning a gun to shoot electrified blasts to stun the Aquilamon. “-keep telling you! If you would listen to me once in a while!”

“Cat's eye!”

Aquilamon dropped to the ground. Stunned and asleep.

Gavin eyed it, as he kneeled down to sooth the Pinamon. “That's better, I suppose, but for fucks sake. Nine and Arc are blood thirsty bastards and even he's going easy on these guys.”

“Who's blood thirsty? Would you like several examples of why you're confused?” Came Nines' voice from his ear-piece.

“I want them alphabetized and chronological, jackass. How goes it?”

At the start of the battle, while the kidnappers were presumably distracted with whatever the hell they were doing to the Digimon, Nines began to sneak over to their last suspected location. Nines convinced him that this was a good plan. Didn't mean Gavin didn't hate it though.

“Our suspects are hiding in an abandoned house near the light we saw, but if I go in now I have a 48% chance of success. They’re up to something. How is the fight going?”

“Damn it.” Looking around at all the collars littering the ground. “I...think we're done? Maybe?” He looked up as Arc set a Gaomon into the pile. “Does this seem way too easy? It's feels too easy. Did they just throw fodder at us? We'll come to you.”

Dante and Arc were panting, and a bit scuffed up yet neither looked all that exhausted despite the battles they just fought. Collared ‘mon were usually a bit harder to fight than this. That bad feeling from earlier came back full force.

“No. You remember last time?”

Gavin's jaw tightened. Last time they successfully found a group of kidnapped digimon they were only able to recover two of the six. They let down their guard during the fight, only taking their eyes off them for a couple of minutes and in that time the digimon vanished back into the grip of the kidnappers.

“Shit, I know but...”

Nines sighed. “Let's just-” An odd noise in the background caused Gavin to tense. “Oh, no.”

“What!?” A shiver raced down Gavin's back.

Dante and Arc bristled, their pupils pinpricked.

A crash. “I'm h-di-g back to-rds you! G-- --ady!” Interference caused the connection to crackle and then cut out.

“Nines? Nines! Fuck!!”

The air crackled with energy.

They waited. One beat. Then two. When Nines appeared around a corner, they all let out a relieved breath. Relief only lasted a moment. Arc shot forward with a snarl, Dante perched on his back.

Gavin began to run forward, then stopped. He looked back, then at Nines, then back again.

“Well be back. Promise.” He said to the Pinamon. “Keep watch.”

Pinamon chirped at him, and puffed up. “Right!”

Gavin nodded then took off after them.

A digimon appeared out of the shadows. “Karatenmon – Ulimate.” His CT-D pinged into his ear. This one had not one, but three collars.

'Fuck! How did they force it to go that high?'

They were going to have to digivolve again.

When was the last time Dante had to go past champion? A couple years at least. Could Arc even do it? The previous battle wasn't that hard but did they have the energy? Fuck!

Arc intercepted the flying 'mon before it could reach his partner. Slamming it to the ground with a freezing fang. He was quickly thrown off, skidding across the asphalt with a snarl. Dante yowled, leaping off of Arc's back.

Lightning paw!

Satori!

Karatenmon dodged out of the way at the last moment. Dante collided with the wall behind them with a pained yelp.

“Nines!”

Nines looked over his shoulder to see his partner running towards them, his own weapon at the ready. “I told you to wait!”

“When do I ever listen to you!” Gavin called back.

Nines face twisted with displeasure. Turning his attention back to the battle, he was relived to see their partners back on their feet. “They need to evolve again!”

“No shit!”

Scorpiomon – Ultimate

Gavin skid to a halt, his eyes darting around. 'Where's the other one?'

The 'mon appeared out of the ground, a couple feet behind the distracted Nines. Gavin cursed and began sprinting towards him.

“Behind you!”

Nines was able to dodge out of the way off the pincers. He changed his weapon to a gun, but it was a few seconds too late.

Tail blade!

Gavin reached Nines just as the attack hit. Nines screamed. Blue blood splashed onto Gavin's face and front as the tail blade cleaved through Nines' shoulder and took a chunk off his side.

In a split second Gavin summoned his gun, firing electric blast after blast into Scorpiomon. They hissed as electricity coursed through their body.

“Son of a bitch!”

They hit the ground, stunned. For now.

Feather flare!

Arc hit the ground with a cry, sharp feathers sinking into his ice hardened fur. He had been distracted by his partner's pained scream, he wasn't able to dodge in time. Then they dived at him, ranking their claws down his side.

Arc snapped at the foe, catching a leg. Ice traveled from the bite, encasing it and the collar around their leg.

They screeched, flailing in Arc's grip. Their other foot slashing Arc’s face. After being released, they flew up. With a mighty flap of their wings, more sharp feathers were driven into Arc.

Arc de-digivolved with a pained cry.

Lightning paw!

Dante's claws raked across Karatenmon's face as they readied another attack with their swords.

Lightning kick!

The swords clattered to the ground -as did one of the collars- as Dante landed in front of Arc, snarling protectively.

Gavin dropped to his knees beside Nines. He was curled up on his undamaged side, a hand pressed against the spot where his arm used to be; the cut, exposed wiring sparked and popped dangerously. He whined in pain through clenched teeth.

“Oh fuck-fuck-fuck! No-no-no-no-no!” He slammed the emergency button on his CT-D then began to struggle out of his jacket. The operator barely got a word in. “Officer down, I repeat officer down! Get someone down here! Right fucking now! Sending location!”

The operator's words were muddled in Gavin's panic. He began to bring his jacket over the gaping wound.

“St-stop.” Nines groaned, his LED burning red. “'s Dangerous.”

“I don't fucking care!” He pressed his jacket to the wound, assisting Nines in stemming the blood. The knees of his jeans were already getting damp.

“I will, ha, will shut down i-in about 10 minutes. If I-ah fuck!”

The pain in Nines' voice made Gavin's heart constrict, and he couldn't do a fuckin' thing about it. His eyes darted around. Karatenmon was recovering from Dante's stun and he had no fuckin' idea how long the blasts he delivered to Scorpiomon would last -he was surprised they lasted this long-. Hell, he wasn't even sure if he had it in him to fire another round, Besides that Dante still needed to evolve, and he needed energy for that.

“You'll be alright, you'll...”

A tiny pained, smile tugged at Nines' lips. “..yeah.”

Anger, sharp and sudden, struck him. “Dante! Digivolve! Now!”

“I know!” Dante snarled back, behind him Arc was pushing himself up shakily. “I'm trying!”

“Try harder! Nines is...we're going to die if you don't! DO IT!”

“I KNOW!!”

Nines opened his eyes a blood-red light lit up the darkening lot; at first he thought it was back-up, but the lack of sirens dashed that hope. The light emanated from Gavin's CT-D, blinding in it's intensity. First surrounding Gavin then shooting out and enveloping Dante. Arc looked horrified. Even Karantenmon briefly looked as if they wanted to run.

“Gavin...what...”

His voice was drowned out by the cries of pure rage.

Back under the collar's control, Karatenmon took the opportunity to dive for the vulnerable digivolving Dante. A blue blaster barley slowed it down. It didn't stop him from trying again and again.

With a deafening roar a huge, clawed paw shot out of the light sending their foe into a nearby container. The light died down and where Dante once stood was a huge, hulking lion-man digimon. His thick, jet black mane hung messily over his face. From the darkness his burning, blood red eyes glowed hauntingly bright. Another roar of pure anger, then he was charging the Karatenmon.

Sato-augh!

The last collar had snapped with that attack. Gavin had to call Dante off.

Nines pushed himself up slightly without resistance, the hand previously pressing the jacket down was now lax as all his focus was on Dante.

“Get them!” Gavin snarled. His eyes had taken on the same horrifying glow.

Nines knew he shouldn't be moving so much, the more Thirium he lost the faster his timer towards shut down went. He was past caring through. He had to get through to his partner.

Necrotoxic claw!

Karatenmon was barley to block the attack with their swords.

“Gavin! Stop!” Nines reached out his hand and gripped his partner's arm, shaking him.

Nothing. He was too entranced with the fight.

“Gavin! Snap out of it!” He tried again, tugging him forward and nearly unbalancing himself in the process.

This time, Gavin's eyes -red and burning as they were- locked with his briefly; it was unsettling. Sanity returned for a second before a sound behind them grabbed his attention. The ugly snarl twisted his face once again as he brandished his weapon.

“Try it! I fucking dare you!”

Stinger su-augh!

A roar and a lion head shaped blast was shot.

Blue blaster!

The attacks sent Scorpiomon flying back, their two collars shattering and clattering to the ground. Karatenmon was kneeling on ground, a sword thrust into the ground to keep themselves upright. They had won and the digimon were freed. They were also confused and terrified.

But Dante was still out for their blood. Gavin snarling right along with him.

Nines then noticed blood dribbling down Garvin's cheek. When had that happened? That's when he noticed the flying feathers from the scared Karatenmon, the origin of the cut on Dante's maw. Dante roared and so did Gavin. It suddenly hit Nines that they were linked in a way he'd never seen. They were lost in their combined pain, fright and rage. It would burn them both out if they weren't stopped.

“Arc!” Nines called, he used his grip on Gavin's arm to both pull himself up and to knock Gavin off balance; Gavin fought against his grip. “We need to knock some sense into them!”

After sending another purposely weak blast at Dante, he looked as his humanoid partner and nodded hesitantly.

Nines' CT-D flared with white light, then shot over into Arc. He pushed as much energy as he could spare into it – many overflowing emotions passed between the two of them. Pain, determination, fear...love.

“Gabumon digivolve to...Garurumon digivole to...”

“...Bladegarurumon!”

Arc brought his swords up just in time to block the attack aimed at Karatenmon. Claws screeching as they hit the golden blades. “Dante! Please! Snap out of it!” he growled.

Ah. So that wasn't the best idea. Nines saw his time drop from 4 minutes to 2 and a half. Damn.

Gavin froze. A strangled noise of conflict breaking through the blind rage.

Good, he needed this opening. “Look at me Gavin.” he pressed his bloody fingertips to Gavin's cheek. Wide eyes darted to his, the burning less intense -he knew one wrong move could ignite it again.

“Good boy.” He breathed in relief. “Now listen to me. I need to shut down on my own, if I’m forced then, well...I need you to calm down, so I can do that. Come on love, focus on me. Breathe.”

Gavin let out a shuttering breath.

Necrotoxic claw!

Another screech of metal and a set of growls.

“No.” He ordered firmly, moving to grip Gavin's jaw as his head began to turn. “Don't look.”

Gavin blinked, as if coming out of a daze. Slowly but surely coming back to himself. The horrid light fading away.

“Just focus on me. There you...Ugh..shit.” He hissed, teetering over.

Gavin caught him before he could hit the ground, his voice rough from screaming it hoarse. “Fuck. I-I didn't..I lost control, I...” He shuttered, breathing ragged. “I didn't know you could feel pain.”

Nines snorted bitterly. “Nearly being sliced in half...Is...ah...fuck!”

He pressed his face into Gavin's thigh, groaning in pain as Gavin put pressure on the wound.

Head clearer and the overwhelming rage in check for now, Gavin dared to look up. A crow-like digimon was cradling a clam-like digimon, while they watched the battle warily. Dante...Dante was merciless, blind with the rage Gavin himself had been entrapped in only moments before. Sparks flew from Arc's blades as tried his best to defend against the blows. He didn’t know how long Arc could keep that up.

“Dante!” Gavin called but it was in vain, his voice was shot and Dante was too far gone. He didn’t even seem to recognize Arc now.

Nines shuttered under his touch. “I’m going to shut myself down for now.”

With his free hand, he blindly soothed back Nines' fringe. He couldn't pull his attention away from his partner. “Y-yeah. Do what you have to. They'll be here soon.”

Nines went limp, his breath evening out. His burning-red LED fading to soft white.

The blood-chilling roars nearly drowned out the approaching sirens.

“You'll be alright Nines.” Gavin promised. “Please be alright.”
