Someone thinks their mun is over-reacting to a certain reserve

[chosen_kindness]

Mun,

I honestly think you'll end up breaking your chair if you don't stop bouncing in it.

You don't even know if it'll happen, why are you already making plans?

You really are hopeless, aren't you?

[handmedowngoggles]

...Do I wanna know about the plans your mundane is thinking of?

[chosen_kindness]

Mostly mundane stuff. For now.

[handmedowngoggles]

You make me nervous when you say it like that.

[chosen_kindness]

Well, she's mostly thinking of my housing situation. And how I'm going to introduce you to everyone.

[handmedowngoggles]

That's easy. Tell them I'm your best friend and we wanna stick together. They'll let me move in.

[chosen_kindness]

I'm sure he will. Lelouch-san is a really nice person.

He still took me in after I told him everything.

[handmedowngoggles]

Everything...?

[It takes Daisuke a moment before it clicks. He reaches out and puts his hand on Ken's shoulder. He doesn't say anything else. He knows how Ken feels about everything.]

[chosen_kindness]

[Ken nods.]

I felt like I should, since he offered his home to me and all. To... let him know what sort of person he invited to stay with his family.

[handmedowngoggles]

Ichijouji...you're a good person. You don't need to think any different. You aren't the Digimon Kaiser.

[chosen_kindness]

Lelouch-san pretty much said the same thing.

[There's a bit of a watery smile.]

He still wanted me to stay with them.

[handmedowngoggles]

Of course he would. Why wouldn't he? You're one of us, Ichi-...

[Daisuke stops mid-sentence.] You're one of us, Ken-kun. You're the Chosen Child of Kindness. You're a good person.

[chosen_kindness]

[Ken looks slightly startled at the sudden change, but he gives the other a small smile.]

Daisuke-kun.

[He looks away after a moment.]

You and Wormmon keep telling me that and I know I'm not the Kaiser anymore, I guess it's just... taking a little longer to actually believe it.

[But then he looks at the other.]

But that's why I have you, right? To keep reminding me.

[handmedowngoggles]

[Daisuke smiles. It's a soft smile. He gives Ken's shoulder a squeeze and nods.]

You bet. That's what best friends are for. And if you go too deep down, I'll slap you out of it.

[chosen_kindness]

[With that reminder, Ken raises a hand and rubs his cheek ruefully.]

I don't doubt that.

[handmedowngoggles]

I won't do it if I don't have to. Promise.

[Daisuke feels bad when he has to do it but sometimes it seems like the only way to get through to Ken at times.]

[chosen_kindness]

I know.

It's all right, Daisuke-kun. Really.

[handmedowngoggles]

[Daisuke nods and lets his hand fall from Ken's shoulder.]

Then we have nothing to worry about.

[chosen_kindness]

[Ken nods, giving the other a small smile.]

Nothing at all.

[And then, a slight smirk.]

Besides my beating you at soccer of course.

[handmedowngoggles]

Yeah right. I'm the one who is going to beat you in soccer. Just you wait and see.

[chosen_kindness]

Maybe if you keep telling yourself that, Daisuke-kun.

[handmedowngoggles]

We'll see who has the last laugh, Ken-kun.

[chosen_kindness]

I think we already know who will.
