It was strange for someone to be at the Magami HQ and already have a digimon. Most gathered up their digimon, left, and never returned. Not Pollux, though. He'd gone out of his way to reset his digimon entirely - a rare thing generally used as punishment - and had opted to wait for Castor to arrive. His first time in the pod, which seemed simply enough, but who knew. It wasn't as if Castor had much experience with video games - not like Pollux did, studying them as part of his job. There were too many things that could go wrong, and he wanted to be sure.

His Elecmon sat at Pollux's feet, looking all too much like a sleeping dog. He'd been reset just the same as Pollux himself, and if Pollux hadn't coded all the digimon AI himself, he'd almost be worried about the ethical concerns of 'resetting' something that acted so much like an intelligent being.

Castor was excited. He hadn't played video games very often during his life. Well.. not at all, really. He had always favored books, or the occasional movie with his brother. Video games had never really been his forte, as much as they had been his brothers, for the mere reason of his line of work.. AI and such. Smart things. His brother was such a smart person. The smartest. Well.. perhaps not the smartest, but the smartest that Castor knew.

Though, that could also be because he was a kindergarten teacher, so he was mostly around small children and less-than-genius teachers, like himself. The game was beautiful. The city.. it was.. just amazing, what people could do now. He still remembered SuperMario. He had never played it, but he remembered it, remembered seeing it in stores, and people were so excited. But his slightly scattered thoughts on the city and game and lots of other things that didn't really matter, were broken when he saw his brother. He grinned and wrapped his arms around his waist, nuzzled up against his neck. "El--Ah.. Pollux."

Right, usernames.

He didn't see him - not right away, gawking around in front of him, unsure which way he'd came from. Elecmon wasn't much of a watchdog, and completely failed to notice until Castor was there, arms wrapping around him. Pollux grinned, turning to give him a little peck on the forehead. It must have been an odd site - the twins, identical in every way, with only Pollux's glasses showing any difference.

"Pollux." He repeated, reassuring Castor that he'd gotten it right. He pulled back, turning to face him with a grin on his face, nodding down towards the digimon at his feet before reaching over with a foot to nudge it. "This is my Elecmon. You should go get your digimon - they should have them in the room over there." He pointed out a specific building.

He wasn't sure what, exactly, Castor had gotten. He knew he got five options, and that he got to pick, but he hadn't actually set it up special or anything - he could have anything. Anything was fine, after all.

Ah, good, he'd gotten it correct. He would take a bit to memorize the name. It sounded foreign on his tongue. Well.. virtual tongue, anyway. He missed calling him Eli, missed the comparison to his own name, the confusion that it caused and the connectedness he felt to him. He liked being one and the same with his dear twin. He loved that feeling.. It made the days go by just a bit easier, and made his mind all the calmer. He loved him.

He looked down at the.. Elecmon, was it? It was gorgeous, whatever it was. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't quite remember all of his choices, nor had he really understood any of them. He hadn't cared what he got, he just wanted to play the game with his brother. However, he was sure that Elecmon was on the list.. and he honestly would be very upset if he hadn't chosen it. One in the same. One in the same. He looked toward the directed room now, and just frowned a bit. "Will you come with me?" He paused, then looked down at the Elecmon. "Have you named him anything?" Or was it just.. 'Elecmon'? Could they name them something else? He wasn't sure..

Maybe 'George'..

The elecmon stood at the mention of going, looking up at the pair. Even he was having trouble telling them apart, although there was always that intrinsic knowledge of which human was his that helped him cheat his way through.

"Of course I'll come." Pollux responded without a pause. People didn't often go, but you certainly could. Sometimes guides did that - helped guide people to get their digimon, and then let the digimon walk them through the basics. He supposed he was acting as a guide for Castor, now, even if it wasn't his job. This was just something he enjoyed.

"A name?" He glanced down at the freshly reset Elecmon. "No, I just call him Elecmon. We can name them if you want." He didn't see much of a point to that. The magic of having an AI was lost when you'd done a good chunk of the coding yourself. "Most people name them."
