Digimon Fanfic Launch: Growing Up with You Rewrite/Edit on AO3
New version on AO3!
Original complete fic on FFN, over 400k words long!
Growing up with You was my first fanfic as ahiddenpath, and I am finally giving it a new home on AO3! This new version will be edited; the original was written between 2012-2017, so it's a bit rough compared to my current work. However, the original on FFN will not be changed, so feel free to read it there if you don't mind the older writing! But the new version will feature new content, so it's worth checking out for new readers and old!
This is a slow, sweet coming-of-age story exploring themes of growing up, dealing with difficult family dynamics, coming into yourself in the face of hardship, self-realization, and found family. It follows Koushiro and Eimi from early childhood through the events of Adventure, 02, some of the movies, and beyond. It does eventually include romance (Koushiro x Eimi), but most of the story is general. This is an earnest, heart-felt story that means a lot to me. Please check it out!

HAPPY ODAIBA DAY! I just published a new chapter of my digimon fanfic, Infinite Possibilities! Read it on AO3 or FFN!
In today's chapter, Koushiro gives Eimi background info on the relationship between the Chosen and the Bureau, and we see the lingering damage from the events of Tri. I was so interested in thinking up what happened to the 02 kids afterward, I hope I can expand those ideas into a full fic someday.
I'm so excited, because things really start to pick up next chapter, when Hikari and Miyako tell the villages of baby digimon what happened to their missing friends.
Fic Summary:
As more people meet their digimon partners, the challenges of digimon and humans coexisting on earth cannot be ignored. College student Anami Eimi begins her career in digimon research, hoping to help digimon and humans understand one another. When she discovers caged digimon in her new lab, she contacts the Japanese Chosen, setting off a chain of events that force the Chosen and their digimon to reevaluate the dynamics of their partnership.
This fic is set pre and post Kizuna, and is a mostly canon compliant expansion. It's a three phase story, the first starring OC Anami Eimi, then Izumi Koushiro, then Yagami Hikari. It explores the realities, challenges, and politics of digimon living on earth, and the nature of the Chosen/digimon partnership.
Can the Chosen and their digimon find the infinite possibilities that will sustain their partnerships into adulthood?
There are mentions of couples in this fic, but it's action/world expansion/plot driven, not a romance.

Gorgeous cover art above commissioned from @kbondoxxxxav! Check out their comm details here! (Apologies for the infamous Tumblr resizing shenanigans).
Here is the summary of my new fic :D
Infinite Possibilities will have three phases. The first stars Eimi, the second stars Koushiro, and the third stars Hikari. I commissioned the cover to look like a character select menu; each phase will have its own cover art with the lead front and center.
This story explores the realities, issues, and politics of digimon existing on earth, a concept I’ve been obsessed with for years. It opens about a year and some change before Kizuna, and the events of that film will be covered, too- not so much the film itself as what comes after.
There are couples in this fic, but it isn’t a romance. The one worth mentioning is Izumi Koushiro x Anami Eimi, as we do see them get closer and date, although that’s never the point or focus of the story. There might be passing mentions of the two canon couples (Yamato x Sora and Ken x Miyako), and of other Chosen going on nonspecified dates, etc.
I’ve been planning this fic since 2020, and I think it’s ambitious and jam packed with interesting ideas! How the world looks when digimon and humans come together is so interesting to me, and I’m so happy to share my ideas with you. Thanks for being here!
Love, Hidden
I've been so hyped to share this fic since I first thought of it in 2020, after watching Kizuna. Here's a link to the bits I've shared about it, if you're interested.
Hey darlings! It's my birthday, and as is my 12 year tradition, I am publishing a fic chapter :D I've completed my @campdigimonth goal of publishing a chapter of Infinite Possibilities! Read it on AO3 or FFN!
I'm so stoked to share this one with you because it covers some like... Everyday 'living with digimon on Earth' stuff that I am obsessed with. Taichi, Koushiro, and Eimi go to dinner together with Tentomon and Agumon, and we see what it's like to eat with a digimon, particularly in public, and I think the details are delightful and interesting.
A friendly heads up to my aromantic friends that the final scene of this update (after the XXX scene break) has some mild romantic-ish teasing (one of those "soooo what's going on what that person" deals). It's not much, but I'd rather let you know ahead of time.
Please give it a read, it's a good one! I hope you are all doing well <3
I published the first of four chapters of a new explicit digimon fanfic today! You can find it on AO3 here and FFN here.
Summary:
An AU story where Motomiya Daisuke, Anami Eimi, Ichijouji Ken, and Izumi Koushiro are undergraduate students in 2024. This four chapter explicit story follows their exploration of sexuality and relationships in a consensual, queer-friendly way.
Author's notes:
This story features college-age characters exploring their identities in a supportive/sex-friendly/consensual way. We'll see characters pushing themselves to see what they like, asexual characters exploring sex, casual relationships, casual relationships ending, casual relationships shifting to committed ones, monogamous relationships, and possibly poly and open relationships. The characters are purposefully pushing themselves and each other in the name of self-discovery, but they are doing so consensually. They are beginners, though; their advice isn't perfect. Also, while the story is sex positive, there are difficult aspects to being queer in our world, and to navigating relationships in general.
Those do come up here.
Chapter one: Motomiya Daisuke x Anami Eimi
Chapter two: Motomiya Daisuke x Ichijouji Ken
Chapter three: Izumi Koushiro x Anami Eimi
Chapter four: Still in development
Additional Notes:
Hi all! So, this story was inspired by a dream I had of Daisuke and Eimi hooking up, which, if you're familiar with Eimi and my work, was... Kind of weird for me. I ended up fleshing out a story without meaning to simply by trying to figure out what could possibly bring those two together like that, and this is what I came up with! It began expanding to contain Daiken, and suddenly it was June, and I thought... Pride month celebration!!!!
I feel extremely unsure about sharing this work, because explicit content is outside of my wheelhouse, and because I'm lowkey terrified of accidentally blundering somehow when it comes to exploring queer themes (although I am queer myself). So please be kind <3
