Pairing: Background Daisuke x Michael.
Summary:
Patamon is taught the nuances of Valentine’s Day, notably as they pertain to Motomiya Daisuke.
“It’s forbidden to drink the holy Chinese soup without permission. Those who drink it without permission will be punished,” Betamon interpreted the warning sign for his partner.
“So this is the spring where you found the last Holy Stone!” Michael glimmered.
“Mm, that’s it!” Takeru confirmed. “Digitamamon and Bakumon get the delicious soup for their ramen from here!”
“Daisuke said he’s never had any better, right?”
“Well, he’s the expert! Daisuke-kun does love ramen!”
“No argument there!”
“But Takeru, why are we coming here instead of going to Digitamamon’s restaurant?” Patamon flew up to Takeru’s face.
“Because I’m taking some of this soup to whip up an awesome Valentine’s Day present for Daisuke, you see!” Michael answered first.
“What about chocolate? Don’t girls normally buy them for you on Valentine’s Day? Takeru usually receives a lot!”
“Valentine’s is different in America than it is for us in Japan. Boys and girls give or exchange sentiments on the same day. Though yes, chocolate is standard.”
“And Daisuke isn’t standard? Is that why Michael is getting him ramen and not chocolate?”
“Yeah. He’s substandard!” Takeru joked.
Michael still laughed.
“Anything’s good as long as it’s food, if you ask me!”
“Nobody did, did they, Patamon?” Takeru chuckled.
“Betamon, can you evolve and freeze some of the water to bring back with us to the Real World?”
“OK! Leave it to me!”
“Don’t take the soup without permission!” Patamon re-emphasized. “You’ll be punished!”
“Already cleared it with Digitamamon. But thanks for the heads-up, Patamon!” Michael offered his gratitude.
