i Need you to understand that i am just a simple little digimon redemption machine
the squeaky lil gazimon that serve etemon on the server continent? get those critters some beef jerky and cat toys
devimon from adventure? that's a friend waiting to happen
i see milleniummon and i go "that's a friend right there, get the lads some fruit salad"
kurata can suffer in digihell but i'll take his gizmon, they're cute
i just think they're neat

#kinstuff#sky#devi#this is a little bit kinstuff/exomemory stuff a little bit just I Think They're Neat Marge Meme#our brother got us a crest of destiny necklace five years ago and i've been forever changed /hj#but like seriously the idea of rebirth is so common in the digital world#sometimes they flirt with the idea of “bad” digimon dying and coming back reformed#(see: cherubimon in frontiers; the whole gulusgammamon thing; devimon in adventure 2020; i'm blanking on the other example i thought of lol#(WAIT IMPMON DUH)#and morality is sometimes complex in digital antagonists#(ogremon my beloved and again: impmon; savers also had some of this iirc but it's been a while since we watched that one)#but like Pure Evil entities in a series that started off as a v-pet about caring for something that relies on you for everything#hits hard for some reason (could be the childhood trauma /hj)#the easy way out would be reformatting#letting the world completely change who you are and erasing the parts that made you evil#at the cost of losing yourself and maybe even forgetting what made you want to destroy the world in the first place#maybe it really did need to change and letting it kill and assimilate you isn't the right thing#but the idea of villainmons getting a chance to be better and actually taking it#some of the mons really didn't have any motivation beyond “cause mayhem and destruction” but then#milleniummon at least had some kind of yearning in its heart that drove it to act out (iirc; i've only read a summary of the ws games lol)#i think it's also interesting to consider this in the context of series where death has little meaning#digimon whose violence is relegated to the digital world like devimon or etemon#who become part of this unending cycle beyond simply the phases of homeostasis (can't think of a better way to word it)#there is no end to their damage because they do not threaten the digital world in a way that disrupts it beyond the disturbance of individu#in a system where death has no meaning what reason is there to act kind when you have received no kindness yourself?#idk#apocalymon deserved an actual pizza y'all#(i haven't gotten far in my first watch of adventure subbed)#also ghost game got so close to doing something nice for milleniummon#i know it's supposed to be one of the many personified apocalypses but like
