We have the investigation or whatever on Fridays when we wake up with that alarm, but we're at a disadvantage because we don't even know where to look or what we're looking for.
But I guess it's nice to know that yelling and scrambling isn't that unusual. [...] Who's Nick?
Yeah, but I mean... the normal thing to do is investigate, have one day of trial, investigate new leads, and another day of trial.. this is just backwards.
[ always complaining about trial ]
.. He's a lawyer. I'm his assistant. So this kinda thing is his bread and butter... you'd think I'd be better at it.
Sounds like a lucky guy. [easy to make things work when you have sheer dumb luck and determination.]
That's still not a lot, Maya. It's more than some of us, but it's still just starting out. [...] We've been doing stuff like this for six years, and I'm still not even sure what I'm supposed to do here.
Yeah. Me and Yamato both, along with a bunch of our other friends that aren't here. Our partners were waiting for us in that other world, and when we finally got there and met them we became a team to help save their world and ours.
It's different for us. In the Digital World, at least we had our partners. Here, Yamato and I don't have anything like that. And we can't go anywhere to even look around much besides what's on campus. We're stuck.
Just because we should be used to it doesn't mean we really know what to do either.
[...he does nothing to correct her...if maya wants to think he's cool and composed, he will let her.]
There's always a bigger picture we should focus on. I don't think people shouldn't be mad, but I don't think we can only stay mad and do nothing about it either.
[but. he nods.]
I don't know why we're here, but I can't say I'm surprised he's with me either. It's usually the two of us anyway.
I don't think it's rotten. I really wish Agumon was with us. And I miss my friends and my sister and everybody. We didn't even get to say goodbye to them before we left.
[so...it makes sense to him that they miss those people.]

[...a lot of things make sense suddenly.]
I don't know if you should be better. You haven't been doing it very long, have you?
no subject
[ ... ]
Well, uhm, it's been more than a year? We've done eight.... no, seven, um... cases together.

[ easy when ur a protag. but her eyes widen ]
S-Six years?! But... aren't you only seventeen?!
no subject
Yeah. The first time we went to another world we were in fifth grade. We've been working with our partners ever since to keep the worlds safe.
[the simplistic and straightforward way of saying it.]
no subject
Wow.... I... I didn't realize you've been dealing with this for so long....
[ that explains a lot frankly ]

I guess this must be small potatoes to you, huh?

[just...to follow up on her initial point.]

[ this is such a funny statement considering yamato and taichi fistfighting ]
At least you have each other.... that's important, too.

... Hard to know what to do other than be mad, I guess.
[ be sad, obviously ]
Well, that's friendship for you. Through thick and thin!
[ apparently ]
no subject
...but he huffs a little.]
Maybe that's what it is. It's hard to say. I still haven't even figured out why some of us showed up with friends from home and other people didn't.
no subject
[ like at exec!!!! ]
Yeah.... I wonder about that.....
[ a slightly wistful expression crosses her face ]
no subject
...well, okay. Maybe that works for some people.
[...he's not stupid though.]
You must miss your friends, too. It's been a few weeks.
no subject
[ also what friends binch she only has one ]
I do kind of wish Nick was here, even though that'd be terrible. [ ... ] Pretty rotten of me, right?
no subject
I don't think it's rotten. I really wish Agumon was with us. And I miss my friends and my sister and everybody. We didn't even get to say goodbye to them before we left.
[so...it makes sense to him that they miss those people.]
no subject
Yeah... Nick must be worried....
[ .... ]
At least time doesn't pass, right? So you can see them as soon as we fix this mess.
no subject
[...and then he...thinks...about some of the things maya has said.]
...are you going to be safe when you get back?
no subject
[ ha ha ]
Oh, you know! Crazy things happen to me a lot.
no subject
no subject
Well.... uhm, let's just put it this way... I was in a lot of trouble before I ended up here.
