Aurea&#x27;s (Gaming) Adventures

Then there was the odd egg thing. Oh, and a lot of "digimon" reverted into eggs.

Close up, the odd egg thing was a little "intimidating." Look at that face.

You're some sort of bigshot in this game. Everyone's relying on you to win the tournament.

First rival fight. My rival is named Koh.

It was an easy win.

Everyone celebrates but Koh.

Digimon World Dusk

This'll be an interesting game.

There's four packs to choose from. They all have the funny bunny? thing.

I chose the balanced pack.

Names & Stories

Aurea: "These spaces aren't long enough."

Daigo: "What are you trying to name?"

Aurea: "The Farm Island."

Daigo: "Just name it WhtForest?"

Aurea: "Sounds like one of the shortcuts in liquid crystal."

Aurea: "..."

Aurea: "It's still too long"

Daigo: "By how many letters?"

Aurea: "One."

Daigo: "WhtWoods"

Daigo: "Or even W.Forest"

Aurea: "That sounds like the book with a teddiursa in it. Winne the Pooh?"

Daigo: "Winnie the Ursa, you mean. Had a blitzle with a pin-on tail."

Aurea: "... you remember this?"

Daigo: "Uncle Cedric read it to me as a child."

Daigo: "Father was drunk."

Daigo: "And couldn't finish the book."

Aurea: "... ohright."

Game Differences p2

Aurea: "So your city is called SunshineCity and mine MoonlightCity?"

Aurea: "Ah, there's the shadowy figure again."

Daigo: "Did you win in the tournament?"

Aurea: "Of course"

Daigo: "Just a heads up, though. If it's anything like my game, your monsters are going to change."

Daigo: "They turned ... smaller. Weaker."

Aurea: "Oh, it's DarkmoonCity"

Aurea: "Huh?"

Aurea: "... like their pre-evolutions?"

Daigo: "Beats me. I'm just playing the game."

Aurea: "I guess I'll see once i reach that point."

Aurea: "It's so amusing to see them trail behind you like that."

Daigo: "They look weird."

Daigo: "Their eyes are very exaggerated."

Aurea: "There's a lot of dragons."

Aurea: "Are they?"

Daigo: "Yes, as far as I've seen."

Daigo: "I'd like a veemon, though."

Aurea: "A ... 'Veemon?'"

Aurea: "Now that's a curious creature."

Daigo: "It's kind of blue. Has a golden V on its forehead."

Daigo: "Seems to use its fists in fighting."

Aurea: "NaviDigimon."

Aurea: "Is everything in this game a play on Digital or Monster?"

Aurea: "Oh! I got a farm!"

Daigo: "Hello, old macdonalds."

Aurea: " ... you do know I'm British not Scottish, right?"

Daigo: "Yes."

---

Aurea: "Ah... there's the strange glowing figure."

Aurea: "It looks like a pokemon egg with electricity bouncing off it."

Daigo: "Is it purple?"

Aurea: "... ah, I can't get my farm island now."

Aurea: "But yes."

Aurea: "... they shrunk"

Daigo: "Oh, look. It's a horned bird. "

Aurea: "Haha. it looks like a klink!"

Daigo: "Looks like a braivary with horns and if it was painted red."

Daigo: "Did you name it Klink like I told you to?"

Aurea: "Yes, yes."

More Impressions

Aurea: "It makes things plenty times easier on your wallet, doesn't it?"

Daigo: "Indeed."

---

Aurea: "Ah. The tournament's starting."

---

Daigo: "I don't think I've seen a shop yet."

Aurea: "Odd."

---

Aurea: "... the opposing team leader is called 'Chief Glare.'"

Daigo: "That's my leader's name."

Aurea: "I see. Well, we are playing counterpart games."

Daigo: "I suppose. /frown"

Aurea: "Is something wrong with that ... ?"

Aurea: "What is the name of my counterpart there? Yours is Koh."

Daigo: "..."

Daigo: "I don't remember."

Aurea: ".... oh right. You don't read the dialogue."

Daigo: "Yes."

---

Daigo: "I wonder what these scan things are."

Daigo: "I'd also like to buy a digiball. There's a digimon I want."

Daigo: "Oh, cool. They don't stay permanently fainted."

Daigo: "One of mine fainted, and it had 1HP in the next battle."

Aurea: "Interesting. I did notice earlier that they 'dissolved' away when we defeated them. The 'Vilemon' that is."

Daigo: "Maybe they turn into scan data?"

Daigo: "I'm naming my farm island Devon Island!"

Aurea: "I haven't encountered 'Scan Data' just yet."

Daigo: "Oh, I found the shop. It's just opposite your home."

Aurea: "...."

Daigo: "You can even deck your monsters out with weapons."

Daigo: "What's the proper name for them?"

Game Differences p1

Daigo: “What the hell is a farm island?”

Aurea: “… hm? I haven’t quite made it that far.”

Daigo: “You didn’t start off in the tournament?”

Aurea: “… I was supposed to?”

Daigo: “Huh, what?”

Aurea: “I’m in a place called ‘Thriller Ruins’ right now. There are some ‘Vilemon’ that attacked us.”

Daigo: “Allow me to be eloquent — what the fuck.”

Aurea: “You’re telling me. I have no idea what’s going on, but I’m getting ‘experience’ from it.”

Daigo: “Sounds normal to me. I got EXP from the tournament as well.”

Daigo: “I am now fighting a strange globe of purple named … ????.”

—-

Aurea: “Oh! That’s right. They mentioned that we were training for some sort of tournament.”

Aurea: “… That’s as strange as my game.”

Aurea: “… one of these kids is named ‘punch’ and the other gutts”

Daigo: “I defeated them.”

Daigo: “Was there a kid named Newton?”

Aurea: “… ah, there was a strange red laughing figure.”

Aurea: “yes.”

Daigo: “I defeated him too.”

Daigo: “There was a purple-ish girl that I defeated in the finals, too.”

Daigo: “Yes, I saw the odd figure as well, but it escaped? I think.”

Daigo: “I wasn’t paying attention to the dialogue.”

—-

Aurea: “It would seem all of team Night Crow wear purple and team Light Fang wear yellow.”

Daigo: “No, it’s orange.”

Aurea: “… so it wasn’t just his hair?”

Daigo: “I think their color is red, though. Most of them have some sort of red item on them.”

Daigo: “I don’t know what is going on, but I like how their HP and MP are replenished upon levelling up.”

First Impressions

Aurea: "... what a strange game. They promote pok-- digimon? fighting as well."

Aurea: "haha. one of the 'tamers' here is called Raigo."

Daigo: "I just won in the tournament. Fighting with them is no different from pokémon, but I wish I knew what these types meant."

Aurea: "They seem to have attributes."

Aurea: "Perhaps that is their 'type'?"

Naming Scheme

Aurea: "What should I name them?"

Aurea: "Hm....."

Daigo: "Name them after gym leaders."

Aurea: "They all have the same last ending"

Aurea: "I wonder if this is a quirk or a pun on 'monsters.'"

Aurea: "haha. Like Cress, Chilli, and Cilan?"

Daigo: "Maybe."

Aurea: "But it's a beast, a little white globular bunny thing and a clock"

Daigo: "Uh. Luxray, Buneary and ..."

Daigo: "A clock?"

Daigo: "Voltorb."

Aurea: "I figured you were going to say Klinklang."

Aurea: "The gears of a clock?"

Daigo: "Your humor ..."

Aurea: "... are you implying I have a terrible sense of humor?"

Daigo: "No, it's just awfully foreign."

Aurea: "... Klinklang doesn't fit."

Daigo: "Klink."

"You are the legendary trainer!"

I swear I heard that line before.

My current team.

Sometimes, you use words only Uncle Cedric would.

Top notch, really?

gigiarupack

Hush you, uncouth cur.

There's more?

... What kind?

Wooo, running shoes.

And here we are...

Where else?

No. Don't.

Stop.

.... Oh.

steelbluecross-blog

Occasionally, yes. And when your British wordiness kicks in …

gigiarupack

... And what is that supposed to mean?

... You should be a little more concerned --not that I should be saying anything.

... Is it that surprising? I'm a super protag here.

... This is somewhat touching.
