Zero frowned down at him and he frowned up at her. They hadn't spoken much to each other within the past two days she had played the game, other than staring at each other and coming to an understanding. It was strange how they had come together so easily with little conversation. They both enjoyed silence it seemed, and both were eager to get it. She noticed his headband starting to slip off as a strong gust of wind blew the cold through their clothes. Zero reached over and caught the red ribbon, bending down to gently, but firmly tie it back around his forehead. Gaomon smiled up at her briefly and she returned the smile, patting his head gently. His golden eyes glittered in the clear sunlight of the day around them as reached out and gave him a light hug. It felt good to have someone to console with, even if he wasn't real. She pulled her warm wool, bright red coat closer around her form as she shivered in the cold. Her ballet flats tip toed her form across the streets and her legs were bashed with cold wind as it seeped through her tights. She shouldn't have picked that flowy tunic dress, even if it was cute. It just wasn't practical here. Gaomon clung close to her, gloved hand reaching up to clench hers briefly. She spotted an inn ahead and steered them directly toward it, Gaomon bounding forward and politely opening the door for her. For a digimon, he sure was cultured in her opinion. When they got inside, she moved directly to a table near the roaring fireplace, slipping out of her coat and stretching her limbs. Gaomon smirked and took the chair across from her. She ordered a hot chocolate for each of them from the waiter, and then reclined again in her chair. "So, where to from here?" Gaomon asked gruffly, as the waiter brought back their drinks. She paused, blowing her drink to cool it, before she took a small sip. "We'll probably head west. We need to begin some training along the way. Your cool with that, right?" she inquired of him softly, dark blue eyes glittering from the firelight. "Always."" he stated with smirk before he took a sip of his own hot chocolate. word count -Meh tags -Open notes -Meh coded by grey

tap, tap, tap were the sounds ruki was listening to as she sorted out emails and other things for easier access. standing with her back against a boulder, an outcropping of stone gave her plenty of shade from the sun, keeping her from being snow blinded or snow burned, the tamer was fairly relaxed for once. from the corners of her eyes as she continued to tap, renamon's tail caught her attention, giving a half smile/smirk. renamon was up within the boulders, mostly hidden from the thick snow. anyone dared to attack would get a face full of diamond storm without seeing.

when finished, ruki double checked to make sure the color of her digivice remained red for she was proud of being a game moderator: and red proved she knew what she was talking about. but enough of that. as she pushed herself away from the boulder, renamon expertly leaped down, landing next to her tamer without too much sound. slipping sunglasses over her eyes, protecting them from the digital sun, again reducing the chance of being snow blinded, the tamer began to move forwards. no real destination in mind, haha get it? but wherever they ended up sounded good. so far it was these surprise encounters that were, dare she admit? quite interesting. that wasn't to say other encounters weren't so either.

a soft sigh parted those lips as she moved, glad renamon was silent as ever. the fox was obediant, ready to do anything ruki asked. as it should be. truly though, she valued renamon's friendship. "let's get a drink." ruki spoke suddenly, renamon had the decency to not look too surprised, and they began to walk towards the inn. ruki was quite thirsty, and renamon sure could use a small break. it was cold out here, and they'd spent enough time in the snow.

entering the inn, ruki breathed upon her hands to warm them up a bit. sure it was sunny but it was still cold. upon entering she didn't need renamon's look towards the new players in the inn, and duty came over snarky instinct. "everything okay?" ruki asked, although that wasn't what she was known in the game. in game she was known simply as 'lupo' the lone wolf.

notes: ignore any mention of trees and such xD tried to get them all when i realized genbu city is in the snowy region xDD

She gave Gaomon a quick glance, her dark blue eyes expressing her thoughts to her digimon, and he expressing his own silently. "No, so far our experience has been enjoyable." she stated with a soft smile, crossing her legs and taking a sip on her hot chocolate. Gaomon looked up between the two, his eyes narrowed for a moment before he too offered up a smile to them also. "Here, sit with us. We haven't met much friendly company." he said with a grin, showing off his fangs before taking another sip of his cocoa. Zero raised an eyebrow, looking up at the two, hoping they would sit down. She didn't like people who stood over you, like they thought they were better than you. Personally, if she and Gaomon had their way, they'd probably teach everyone they met a lesson in manners as they went. She took another sip of her cocoa, waiting for the two to decide. word count -Meh tags -Open notes -Meh coded by grey

good, the last thing she wanted was to invoke in her staff duties, so zero got a simple nod from the other player. while taking her duties as a game moderator seriously, there were times she just wanted to be by herself for a moment, without any worries. this caused her to swallow an eye roll as she was never truly alone in this game. not with renamon always around. "good." was the only word spoken in case zero hadn't seen her nod, and if she did, ruki didn't know if she knew what it meant.

the other digimon made her step mentally back. "you have me confused with someone. i am not friendly company." ruki narrowed her eyes for extra effect, for zero and her digimon would find out sooner or later than ruki wasn't the nicest, or warmest, person out there. it was her suit of armor, protecting her from any future hurt.

regardless, ruki took a seat, whilst renamon followed suit, giving the gaomon a softer expression than her tamer. "i'm guessing from your words, you haven't been playing long?" renamon asked as ruki appeared sullen and silent but she was just trying to process what had just been said by gaomon, icy eyes softening, and for a moment, her tough, outer shell, was replaced by something more vulnerable. but that would never last.

This girl was tough on the outside, at least this much could be seen in her actions and words. Gaomon gazed at Zero briefly, and they locked eyes, Zero giving him a small nod to go ahead and answer renamon. "Yes, only a few days. We have been exploring and learning at the moment, but soon we are going to go travel the world and get stronger." he stated calmly, then took a sip of his cocoa. Zero smiled and gave him a quick glance. He had given the two enough knownledge while at the same time keeping a little away from them. If Zero knew one thing, it was the fact that they could never be too cautious and these two were no different, even if they were staff. She was wary of anyone. She took a sip of her cocoa, and continued to look at the two. "How long have you two been in the game, obviously much longer than us, but still.. I'd like to know." she inquired calmly, crossing her legs under the table. Gaomon's tail gave a soft thump as he also stared intently at the other two. word count -Meh tags -Open notes -Meh coded by grey

after a moment, ruki ordered, drinks for her and renamon, as well as something to eat. digimon, she noticed, ate a ton of food. and while renamon wasn't like other digital creatures, preferring to stay by ruki's side rather than indulge in food, the tamer knew her digimon needed to eat. once that task was complete, ruki turned her attention back upon the other player and digimon.

"that is what most tend to do. just be careful, don't get into a battle with a digimon you know you cannot beat. i've seen some players make that mistake." it was small advice, and she doubted zero was silly enough to confront a strong digimon, only to get beaten because the digimon was too strong. "there are some great places to train though, depending on what training one wants to do."

now the game moderator had to think. how long had she been playing? "i started playing a few weeks after the game opened up. so, around several months or so." that was a pretty good guess: time had seemed to both slow down, and speed up, when it came to this game. "some days it feels like yesterday i began, some days it feels like years. depending on if i know what is going on, or if it's something new."

notes: lolz, i fail at how long ruki has been playing xD
