That's not exactly true. Lunamon wasn't a choice and so were the Mini spiders. The only one we as Verge chose was Thresh.
True, but we choose to keep up with them, spend time with them, make promises to them we intend to keep and so on. So while we might have voted for all the babies, we do tend to pick the actions that see us being there for them to the best of our abilities.

Add to that if things didnt go all sideways verge would have been the perfect caretaker/replacement for gramps when he eventually passed.

And many of our actions have been support actions. Trying to help our friends and support the young ones rather then throwing ourselves into training and becoming the ultimate powaaaa.
Agreed, though I do kind find such a turn out odd. As it is rather uncommon by my experience for questers not always go for being the biggest, meanest, SOB in the room.

It's kind of nice.
By WoG verge just doesnt care too much for training. And even with his wrath trait hes not naturally inclined to be the strongest digimon around. That doesnt meak he cant be strong or a powerhouse himself. But as it's looking it looks like verge will need some significant luck if he wants to get there.
That or something happens to his family and he goes full Guts in revenge. Since I could easily see Verge doing a complete 180 if some dicks were able to destroy the village and his little family.

[X] The *Kodokugumon* as Gramps called them seem to be getting attached to you and despite the creepiness factor you kind of want to spend some more time with them.
 
To add soemthing. Playing with the others will also reduce Verge's stress. Just not as much as digging would since it's his favourite hobby.

Funny thing is that the KoDokugumon option wasn't in the original outline. I put it there after seeing the reactions to the excerpt.

Also I never forced Verge to go the family route. I'm actually surprised as all heck about the spider option being so popular. They're spiders! They're not supposed to be cute!

Anything can be cute mate and really spiders are cool.



An drexal, look upon the future. :p

So, with this we're just a little bit away from the prologue. Next post (Timeskip) will be bringing us to the night right before the festival. So very close and it's hard to beleive we've nearly reached 90 pages! If this keeps going we might reach like 93 before things are over.

The journey here hasn't always gone exactly as planned, which is awesome since the additions (such as Verge learning healing magic) were entirely thanks to you guys.

Hey... the Dokugumon could see in the dark right? And in Tamers Guilmon liked to burrow...

Maybe we could combine digging and spider playtime by digging a den/hideout? :p

Also with our drilling! Drill company go! Best construction workers for hire, Verge and sons.

Our spider children will use their webs to keep materials together. Brilliant.

It's too late drex. Scrap whatever plans you had, construction digimon quest is a go!!!

Well... Trapdoor spiders are a thing :D

Verge: "I swear the entrance was right here" :???:


:grin:
 
No one want to play with our friends? Spend some quality with our siblings by watching The mini spiders chase Luna and than watching Thresh chase the Mini Spiders?

It also helps that playing also lowers stress.
 
Problem is, Verge being the baby papa guy is kind of how we buit him organically over this entire quest so far. Since almost every action we have done or goal we have set for ourself revolves around family or helps them. Then add to that we are a sucker for little babies and you kind of have a locked in thing here.

Sorry mate, we built a woobie mole named Verge.
We really didn't tho. Verge doesn't have any particularly fatherly traits at all. Also, none of the family-focused stuff has to mean "must grow family at all costs". Like, seriously, do you want to drag 14 fucking "family" members around for the entire quest the whole time? You know it's okay to say no to cute things, right? You're not going to be arrested.

I don't know man I hear the cuteness police are pretty brutal to deviants.

It's not that I don't want to do that, it's just that I figure some personal time would be good for us is all. But since drexal has said it would remove stress too anyway, I guess I can see no real harm if switching up this time.

Now that Thresh has the Spideybois under his beck and call we'll finally create our Grand Armee and take the battle to both the Gloaming and the Blessed Host! Only one faction can rule, and with our long term investment we can be that faction! Now we just need to think of a battle cry a faction name, a cool flag, a moral system and an organised fighting force :D

I like where this is going.

Just got caught up with the quest and I wanted to say that it has been a pretty fun ride so far. It took me a few tries because of how annoying I initially found the MC to be, but in the end Verge has been an interesting character to see develop and change.

Also this has been the first bit of digimon media I've ever consumed so just being introduced to this world and its concepts has been super fun.

Now onto this vote. I think that Verge needs some time to relax after all these incidents and and I want him to keep developing towards a caretaker personality or guardian type. I really enjoy the protective side of Verge that we've seen come out for those close to him like Lunamon, Thresh and Auger. I also find the images of in-training and baby digimon curling up on Verge's fur to be one of the cutest things I've ever read. It's a great mental image and I'm going to be sad if we evolve to a form without fur.

Thanks Zale! I saw you working your way through the thread. Welcome aboard! I'm glad your first experience with digimon has been a good one.

And heh, yeah I knew from the getgo that Verge as of the beginning wouldn't exactly be the most popular character considering his nature. But I'm glad we were able to help him grow and develop.

I never actually expected Verge to end up being so protective, yet here we are. It's kind of nice actually.

And if we're lucky Demenos will be able to put some of those mental images to paper. He's done a great job with Fanart so far.
 
but he also seems to be a big force in the village.
Power wise or influence wise?

Power wise we're in 5th place on the power pole. Weakest to strongest it probably goes like Lunamon->Auger->Verge->Sparks(+Mech)->Fu->Flame->Gramps

Influence wise I guess you'd be right. Verge is a good mon in everyone's books. He's easily approachable, friendly, fluffy, and overall nice guy. Plus he got some major connections with everyone.

Gramps: Most reliable Mon
Flame: Best Friend
Auger: Digging Buddy and We saved his life(Did we technically save him twice now?)
Fu: Friend and saved her best friend
Sparks: Fellow Hero
Luna: Big Brother
Thresh: Fluff Mountain/Unbreakable chewtoy

(I didn't add WhiteMage because he's more of a Visitor than a Villager.)
