[h3][u]Danny and Tatl[/u][/h3]

Danny listened closely to who he assumed was the Dorumon that Tatl spoke of. He wasn't quite sure what to make of this, but when he heard the Digimon were being referred to as partners, he looked down at Tatl. "Are you going to be my partner?" Danny asked her.

"Definitely." Tatl responded.

Danny overheard the Cardmon talking to a teen boy whose name he didn't know, and giving him a present. "Hey, where's my present?" Danny joked to Tatl.

"What? Am I not good enough?" Tatl put on her best sad face to tease Danny.

"Oh, um." Danny was panicking. "You're good. Better than good in fact. I mean you're perfect. Or not perfect, not that there is anything wrong with you, but I don't really know you that well so I can't say you are perfect. I'm going to stop talking now."

Tatl let out a giggle. "Calm down Danny. I was just teasing you."

"Oh, right. Of course." Danny looked back at Tatl, when he saw a scar on her stomach. "What happened?" Danny gestured to her stomach.

"I, um." Tatl had her head held down. "I would rather not talk about it." She gripped Danny's jacket tighter.

Danny lightly pressed his arms around Tatl in a hug, hoping the size difference did not make it seem more intimate than he wanted. "That's okay. You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to." Danny reassured her.

"Thank you." Tatl awkwardly hugged Danny's arms, since she knew from experience that size differences made hugs weird, and wanted to let Danny know she understood the intent.
