"It's a lot to take in," Arukadhimon transmitted his thoughts to Dea.
"Until today, when you called out to me, my whole world was the darkness inside my digiegg. This is my first time experiencing the outside world with my own eyes."
That being said, Arukadhimon
did have certain memories of the outside world that he had inherited from the data that had been injected into his digiegg from his father, Daemon, the Demon Lord of Wrath. Those memories and the feelings associated with them were really more like disassociated fragments than something truly connected with Arukadhimon's own psyche, similar to seeing the world through a dirty lens. The brightness, warmth, and color that Arukadhimon now felt were quite different from the bland and stagnant images that had been fed to him inside his digiegg.
Arukadhimon loosened his grip around Dea's arm and hopped down to the ground, stretching out his segmented legs and scuttling along by Dea's side to bask in the sensation of brushing against the softness of the grass and the warmth of the slowly setting afternoon sun.

Crystal looked on with some relief as it seemed that the others had also reached the park at the same time she had arrived there with Kameka. She was also glad to see that the girl with the Dorumon was able to reign in her partner. Crystal had been a little concerned that the earlier comments made by her own partner and Kameka's partner, Vitium, might have offended the purple-furred draconic beast, but clearly his defensive temperament was only for show and not a genuine threat of aggression. Crystal certainly hadn't felt any real animosity from him.
The apology from Nyx on her partner's behalf seemed to satisfy Kyaromon as the small mammalian digimon also relaxed while remaining perched on Crystal's shoulder. Crystal decided to keep him quiet by retrieving the toothpick from him and handing it back with a fresh piece of the Takoyaki for him to stuff in his mouth. Kyaromon was a pretty passive digimon to begin with so he didn't mind allowing Crystal to distract him with yummy snacks. In fact, the snacks wouldn't have even been necessary to get him to keep quiet if she simply asked the mammalian digimon to do so, but the snacks were way tastier!
Crystal was taking a brief moment to take in her surroundings. Aside from the girl with the Dorumon, there was the boy with the Sunmon who was also new to the gathering crowd of digidestined and digimon. The girl who had been propped against the tree by Kristoph was still looking pretty out of it, but at least the other girl, Claire, had managed to stop her hand from bleeding back at the computer lab so Crystal figured she was probably going to be alright. She must have really pushed herself hard back there to tire herself out so badly, but there wasn't anything Crystal could have done to change that so there was no point in wasting her energy on feeling guilty about it. Kristoph's partner, Dorimon, seemed intrigued by the existence of the other Dorumon which Crystal thought was totally understandable given that to her knowledge it was a pretty rare species among digimon and she also wondered what sort of variation there might be with this other one's digivolution.
Crystal was far from unobservant. She noticed that Dea was stumbling a little and she could also see that the other girl was trying to hide any show of weakness. Clearly, she must have been pretty exhausted too. Again, understandable given the whole kidnapping fiasco. As such, Crystal decided not to comment on it at the moment. Instead, Crystal decided to delve into the other pressing issue of introducing herself to those assembled whom she hadn't already taken the time to introduce herself to.
"Anyway, since there are still some people here I haven't properly introduced myself to, I'm Crystal and this is my partner, Kyaromon," Crystal stated, gesturing briefly toward the small mammalian digimon perched upon her shoulder. "I'm a first year student at Odaiba High School and a member of the karate club. And I first became a digidestined when I met my partner about three years ago."
