"We meet once again. Potionista Varian!"

"I...think that's the first time you've used my name."

"Yes, all of our previous interactions were before I considered you, a mere cafe servant boy, worth knowing or remembering the name of. But I did some more digging on your background, Varian."

"Oh, that's terrific! You know all about my many fuckups, then!"

"On the contrary, I know all about what a superior, prodigious young man you are. You were always the one with the bold ideas and the higher calling, it was everyone else who was too stupid to see it!"

"You nearly brought an entire kingdom to its knees through your ingenuity and unmatched brilliance alone, and then you conquered it as was your right to do! It being all wiped out by cheaters harnessing superior power does not erase the heights you were able to reach!"

"Appreciation from one young evil genius to another. Hey, thanks!"

"Ken, I thought you said Varian was a fool for not learning how to harness the power of those black pointy rocks for himself like you do with the Control Spires."

"Shut up, Wormmon! The only fool I see here right now is YOU!"

"Wait, hold on - you were disappointed because your "Moon Varian" theory didn't ever become true, is what he's saying?"

"Never you mind what he says! We should consider a future alliance of ingenious evil over some stimulating sasparillas and scones!"

Yahoo! I finally drew (checks notes) one of the three Pride pictures* I wanted to do this year. Technically it wasn't on the list but I found my old blank artist tiles and decided to give it another try with the image on the left. Unfortunately I still wussed out and only inked it lmao, everything else was filled in digitally ^^; (One day I'll take a photo, I forgot to for this post, but I'll add it on the site when it goes up anyway)

So yes, this is a particular delusion of mine. And yes, it's for Pride, here's your customary wikipedia link. Although in this case, my delusion comes from looking at Stingmon's design too much...It's too obvious if you know anything about leather, no...? (IMO, I emphasize.)

But I'm happy I finally drew something with this idea and with it turning out 98% close to how I visualized them in my head.

I think Wormmon looks cute in his leather getup. The second image has them wearing a version of the Japanese policeman's hat instead, because I could :3c

That's all lmao, hope you enjoy. (If you freaked out and don't like this, you can just close the x on the window tab.)

and also the Green Buge

"Excuse me, sir. I've never been able to Digivolve, so I have to ask..... might you be my evolved form?"

"I am the perfectly evolved form of myself, not of a lowly creature like you. I was designed to become the perfect lifeform."

"Perfectly stated, too! I guess that's a little out of my league."

"What do you mean "perfect lifeform?" If you were designed to evolve into your current state, like that's part of your programming or something, then you can't truly be a perfect being. That makes you only marginally superior to a Digimon!"

"I can be classified as an android, but I am not merely programmed nor am I in any way a digital monster. My mind is what drives me to as perfect as my power capacity is in this perfectly evolved state."

"But a true perfect lifeform would achieve perfection by mastering their own innate potential that they had within them from birth!"

"Which is how I became who I am today, making me one such perfect lifeform! When it comes to humanity, I am true perfection!"

"You're a computer pilled, snot-nosed little twerp who's high on the delusion of power just because you're real bright for your age! Don't confuse that for true perfection!"

"Oh no...master's not going to like that."

"[chuckles] Oh no, that's really the sort of reply I anticipated. A man-made creature like you isn't able to comprehend the peak of human potential, especially reflected in one so young as I am."

"Is that so? Well because I am of this man-made design that far surpasses any human, I'm willing to bet my body's better at holding potions than your fragile one is, child."

"Well, we'll just have to SEE about that, won't we?"

"I have a Body Split Potion, Foul Yellow Boiling Potion, Mental Control Potion, and Strength Enhancement Potion all lined up!"

"A Babbly Bubbly Potion, Pilfer of Power, a Frappe Potion and a Latte Potion will suffice for me!"
