Welcome to a Digimon Fanfic twenty years in the brewing, only recently given lease on life thanks to the advent of easily accessible open source AI for image generation!(Run locally on my own machine, trained by myself, no longer using Midjourney or other commercial products.)  Like many projects, I'd balked at starting this one due to wanting to include graphical assets along with the written word, well, now that's no longer a hindrance! Jaku and Vixi get off to a bit of a rough start in two different timelines across two realities.  Are these two different stories?  Well, that would be telling now, wouldn't it?  Spoilers and all that. Both the routes of Chill Circumstance, and Lugubrious Lachrymosity diverge early on, but do they converge again at some point?  Stay tuned to find out! This began on a Digimon fan forum, but, since I want to take part in NaNoWriMo, I'm migrating it here to RoyalRoad to keep track of the writing I'll be doing in November.  **Announcement!** Resumed this project, updating once monthly for the nonce!
