"I love the stars too fondly to fear the night."

Digimon-centered Roleplay account, a lonely altered Wizardmon named Wallace.

after I watched this funny stuff called “tales from the trip” I wonder what happens if a digimon takes stuff (drugs) that makes you hallucinate/trip out like weed, DMT, mushrooms, ecstasy, ayahuasca, and acid? Have you taken any of these drugs before or saw any mon try them?

"I couldn't honestly say, though given we can be influenced by your foods and drinks just fine, I suppose it'd be possible. We'd likely just have a much higher tolerance to the effects of any recreational drugs."

"For my part, I've not partaken in anything of that level myself. Not out of disrespect for the hobby, I just prefer to keep myself lucid when possible. The closest I've come is a puff of my herbal pipe to calm my muscles."

Since digimon can be inside electronic devices; can they be picked up like one of those desktop pets (ex: shimeji (not the mushrooms)) while in this state specially if they are inside a computer?

Presumably so. I'm aware that some who raise and bond with Digimon have spaces called 'Digifarms,' usually accessed via any device, and since we're pure data while inside a device, it would be as simple as a click-and-drag, as you might put it. Though, most won't typically appreciate you just grabbing and lifting them. It's not the comfiest thing to be held by your head, no?

At the very least, do be gentle with these things.

after I heard rumors that your species are doll like in some way; can you be washed inside a washing machine ? How it would be like? You know being stripped naked and then carefully put you inside and set the washing cycle to both wash and dry then after it’s done, you are either left to finish drying in the cloth line or warped with blankets/towel then someone gets you something to wear for awhile?

"I haven't the foggiest where you got that idea, but to settle the rumor now, no, we are not doll-like. The stitches and our attire adorn the digital equivalent of flesh."

"As for the latter part, I'd imagine like putting any living thing into a washing machine; ergo, a terrible idea. Something very painful and dangerous to do, and while I can only speak for myself, something bound to earn you quite a fight for the attempt." "Please don't do this to anyone. I just take showers and sometimes baths. Kindly refrain from implanting your ideas of how you treat your toys onto us."

can digimons can have…. *cough* genitalia *cough*?

...Why do people insist on seeking Digi-grundles? This is not the place to find them, I assure you.

I will not answer this query, it is clearly not rooted in scientific interest. Please go home.

[the-stitched-wizard]

do digimon hair, fur, etc; grow back if it’s cut?

Not in the way it would for humans.

Given the nature of our data-based bodies, anything that goes outside of set 'parameters' will usually be reset to normal given the passing of time. Forceful altering of these 'parameters' can make changes made long-lasting, but dying and being reborn will reset you back to zero still.

If you see a Digimon with different details compared to normal members of its type, it'll either be because of forceful alteration, or rare cases of the data changing in response to specifics of that particular Digimon.

[the-stitched-wizard]

can digimon get… kidney stones?

Attaining kidney stones is hard without actual physical kidneys.

As a general rule of thumb, many of the physical ailments that'd require surgery or treatment to fix in a human aren't something that would affect a Digimon.

[the-stitched-wizard]

can digimon go through medical procedures like surgery?

"Yes, actually, though as with many things, it's not exactly one-to-one with how a human treats medicinal practices. If a Digimon for instance took grievous enough damage to their data or worse, their core, urgent care would be required. Things like injecting blank slate data to be overwritten for accelerated healing or forcefully removing corrupted or 'dead' data to prevent the damage from spreading. Not much dissimilar to how a human would handle infected flesh, I believe." "Mind though, this is usually reserved for dire situations since Digimon are by nature meant to be able to endure more than a human. So long as it's not a life-threatening injury or an abnormality within the data that needs to be remedied, we can typically heal damage that would be more serious for a human with rest and nourishment."

"For anything else, while I've personally not partaken in it myself, cosmetic 'surgeries' are an uncommon, but not unheard of practice to indulge in. We're certainly not injecting plastics into ourselves, but small injections or 'mods' for lack of a better word can alter mild construction of a body or tweak coloration. This tends to be both expensive, and rather difficult to find a willing professional for."

[the-stitched-wizard]

can some digimon get their hair gray/silvery gray/white from a huge shock? and this have cure?

Generally not. Even if something outside of normal parameters were to cause a change, our data tends to be quick to resolve irregularities. I believe the longest I've seen any sort of dye job last is a full day. I suppose that'd be a cure.

But short answer, no. Outside of extreme personal data fluctuations or Digivolution changes, losing pigment like that isn't usually an issue.

[the-stitched-wizard]

if you get careless to get you hair badly matted, what you would do? and how does hair, nails, etc growth on digimon takes on how long?

It's important to remember at the end of the day that Digimon are data-based entities. We may have nails and hair, but they're there to fit a default according to pre-laid formats. It's considered an anomaly for these to change outside of Digivolution. Enough so that I couldn't tell you a timeframe.

...That said, my hair does require a good bit of brushing and care, unfortunately. Tangling remains one of my greatest enemies, so I'll always at least carry a brush.

[the-stitched-wizard]

after i heard that digimon sometimes can change to human form; can you change into one or shapeswift? how you would look like as one?

Short answer? I can, though this is more of a rarity for Digimon in general.

I handle it through various small spells and alchemic mixtures. Things to let me change my height and physique. Being a professor while under five feet and riddled with stitches wouldn't be ideal.

Ironically, altering the color of my skin still remains the greatest challenge...

[the-stitched-wizard]

do orphanages exist in the digital world?

Generally? Not in the way that might be relevant in the human world.

Typically, villages or towns will make the raising and protection of Baby and In-Training digimon a collective effort. They'll watch over the eggs, then the eldest, primarily Rookies, and perhaps very rarely a Champion will do their best to educate and protect the youngest until they can mature into Rookies themselves. From that point, they can and often do become part of the community, or they're free to cut ties and roam the land on their own.

You could say, for Digimon, it literally takes a village to raise a child...

[the-stitched-wizard]

She approaches Wallace with a demeanor akin to that of a puppy who had done something it shouldn't. "I... uh, got into a fight with Wisemon and shredded a few pages of his book out of anger. Could you... apologize to him for me?"

Given a passing moment, he set his book down softly on the nearby table, regarding Vyre with a somewhat weary gaze and a soft sigh.

"Dear Moon, why on Earth...no. I can mediate and arrange a meeting, but the apology won't mean anything from any lips but yours. Got to learn to take responsibility for this sort of thing. My advice? Give him a book or scroll as an apology gift. Token of goodwill, that sort of thing..."

His head tilted to offer a stitched smile, casting a lax finger over the numerous shelves and book piles.

"You can peruse here for a gift. I've already gleaned what I can from them in particular."

[the-stitched-wizard]

how would be like an marriage ceremony either between 2 digimon; or a digimon and a human?

I...could not tell you. Marriage is typically a rather foreign concept to Digimon as far as I can tell. Digimon can become tightly-knit friends, but anything more is uncommon as we tend to not have a need for more...

Please do not try to marry a human and a Digimon together, I'm not certain what you'd get out of that...

[the-stitched-wizard]

do contests exist in the digital world? if it does, i wonder how you would dress up in such event as well in a special occasion like something formal.

I've seen all manner of competitions here. Some based on athletic sport, some as quaint as eating competitions or knowledge tests. I myself have never been and don't plan to. Either way, my normal attire would suffice, though I suppose in the case of something formal, I've taken to a button-up with rolled sleeves and slacks. Simple.

[the-stitched-wizard]

what do you do if you have nightmares?

Genuinely? To this day, I scry to find someplace that is going through a heavy storm. Hard rain and thunder. Then, I project and amplify that on a loop via a few spells. Something about the thunder blocks out the terrors, and all that rain has always made me feel as if the troubles are being washed away.

If you ever struggle with nightmares, I'd suggest something similar. Find a place, scene, or sound that makes you feel safe somehow and let its noise be your ambience.

[the-stitched-wizard]

are you made of cloth, stuffing, and doll materials and/or has blood, flesh, bones, skin and organic stuff? is there instances of your kind and related species that 100% doll like, as well 100% organic like but retains the frankstain/scarecrow/ragdoll appearance, and 50% doll and 50% organic? no wonder why you look so huggable and adorable ❤️.

I myself am purely digital. Or, if you want to get into particulars, "digital-organic." In that I can have flesh, but I'll ultimately dissipate and leave nothing behind if I perish.

I can't comment on the doll nature, I've never seen it that way. And I doubt any of my kin or cousins are any different. That said, given what is doable via magic and alchemy both for us, something like that isn't impossible.

...Also, I am not "huggable," or "adorable." I am a tired, lonely mystic and scholar...

[the-stitched-wizard]

Do you make cute noises or even squeak when hugged?

I'll have you know I am a very old, very powerful practitioner of the magical and alchemical arts. I am to be taken very seriously, and I am never cute or squeaky.

...Do not test the hugging theory, you'll find nothing, I promise.
