“Haha, you’re definitely not the only one,” said Takato. “But Guilmon is confused by a lot of things.”
Takato listened as Legolas talked of his home world and the difference between humans and his own species. He was right: humans were rather blind as to their surroundings, especially with the modern invention of cell phones. As a Tamer, Takato liked to believe he was a little more aware of what was around him, but that was proven false every time he accidentally “Lightning Jousted” someone’s car.
“Well, better the abandoned cars than the people that left them there. Wish Yamaki could see it like that sometime…” thought Takato.
“Well then I can start teaching you once Guilmon and I are all settled in,” said Takato. “And I’d love to learn how to be more aware… it could help me not cause as much destruction when dealing with wild ones.”
Takato stayed silent for a moment while Legolas posed his questions on bio-emergences and Digimon. He seems to have a hard time with the words, but he got them out right.
“Well, you see,” explained Takato, “a Digimon is… well, it’s hard to explain. Guilmon is a Digimon, but not all Digimon are like Guilmon. Some are big, some are small, some are weak, some are strong, some are beasts, some are humanoid… I’ll have to explain in detail another time. But, to give contrast to Guilmon, the form we entered in was also a Digimon. That was Guilmon’s Mega form: Gallantmon.”
“Gallantmon is your Mega form too, Takatomon! We biomerge!” said Guilmon.
“Well yeah, I guess,” said Takato, smiling. “Thanks boy. Anyway, before you ask, there’s a big difference in biomerging and bio-emerging. Biomerging is when a Tamer, like myself, fuses with their partner to skip straight to the partner Digimon’s Mega, or final, form. Bio-emerging is when a wild Digimon emerges from the Digital World into the Real World.”
Upon realizing that Legolas probably needed to know what “Digital” meant, Takato added “it’ll all make a little more sense once I explain modern tech, actually, as Digimon are a direct result of it. It’s a bit too much to explain all at once.”
