Hikari Yagami Week 2023 - Day 4 - Sports

for @hikariyagamiweek

Hikari and Takeru had only been in the same class for months, yet there was no one else in the school she was closer to. It wasn’t that they knew everything about each other, but they didn’t need to.

Takeru always knew when Hikari was down, and had a talent for picking the best gifts for her. Franchises she didn’t even know he knew she liked, necklaces that instantly fit her aesthetic, sweets she’d never reject.

And in turn, she could just as easily read and adjust to his moods and attitudes.

So strong was their bond, it came as a shock, to her, to him, likely to all their observers, when Takeru nonchalantly kicked a soccer ball to her feet.

Hikari instantly retreated.

“I-I don’t play.” She said simply.

Takeru blinked.

“You don’t play?”

It was a ludicrous statement. Hikari knew every rule of the sport. Could be just as loud as her brother in calling out the referees when she felt they made an incorrect call.

She was also intricately linked to the soccer club. Having assisted the team readily when she and Taichi shared the same school. It was how she met Daisuke. It was how she’d met Sora. It was even how she met Koushiro.

And while she wasn’t n Sora or Taichi’s level, Hikari was still an athlete. She could handle herself in other sports.

And yet, she didn’t play. That wasn’t a lie.

Takeru looked at her, attempting to solve her riddle. “Well, could you pass the ball back?”

Hikari glanced at the ball, then at her feet. She felt woozy. She reached down and scooped the ball up with her hands, throwing it to her best friend.

It was too much to ask for that to be the end of that. Takeru had let the subject drop, but only because there were other people about. Two days later Hikari found herself cornered, with a well-intentioned blond and a bag of soccer balls.

“Takeru, if we’re going to waste time, couldn’t we spend it destroying dark towers?” she asked.

He saw right through her on that. “we already agreed to take a break from that. Relaxation is important as well.”

She didn’t feel very relaxed.

“I don’t play.”

“You don’t? or maybe you won’t? or maybe you can’t?” he set a ball down, about a yard in front of her. “Can Hikari not kick a ball?”

She felt part of herself rise to the challenge and the rest fall. “It’s not about can.” She said simply.

“Ohh? Well then, if you can get this ball in the net before we have to leave, I’ll spend the extra time treating you to that ice cream place you like so much. But you gotta kick it. No hands.”

Of course, he knew what tempted her the most. “Takeru… it doesn’t matter. I don’t play.”

“I’m not asking you to play, I’m asking you to kick. What’s the worst that can happen?”

Sirens, bright lights, doctors yelling words she couldn’t understand. An angry mother, a tearful father, a frightened brother.

“You never know.”

Takeru sized her up. “is the ball going to turn into a dinosaur? Or maybe an evil robot? I don’t recall those stopping you before.”

She twitched. “it’s different.”

“Well, maybe it can be the same?” Takeru said. “Maybe this ball is Ladydevimon.”

Hikari brought a hand to stifle a giggle. “What?”

“it is. It’s her head.”

“Takeru…”

“It’s her head. She sat there taunting you, and she called Angewomon a goodie two shoes. Are you going to let her get away with that? Come on Hikari kick her -”

“Takeru!” Hikari said. “Why are you doing this?”

“Because you can’t go through your entire life scared to kick a ball Hikari. You want to be a teacher when you grow up, you’ll have to help kids learn as well.”

“That’s when I’m an adult.”

“You can’t put it off forever,” Takeru said. “Look at you, I’ve seen you do incredible things. Things no other kid can say. And you can’t kick a soccer ball? Where’s the girl who was antagonizing a perfect-level she-devil.”

Hikari paused. She looked down at the ball, and did her best to do as Taekru directed. Imagining the ball was actually that hag’s head. She sulked up until the ball was right in front of her right foot, curled her knee, closed her eyes, and let it go.

It was not the most accurate kick in the world. Not by far. But of the two kicks of the soccer ball she’d taken in her life, it was by far the least disastrous.

Hikari far preferred ice cream to hospital beds.

Hikari Yagami Week 2023 - Day 1 - Teaching.

For @hikariyagamiweek

Assorted headcanons

Hikari was a sickly child, and her teachers were always very kind to her despite all the school she missed, which is when/why she decided to become a teacher.

In middle/high school she often tutors Daisuke and Takeru when they fall behind, she thinks of it as practice.

She does multiple 'classes' for new Chosen, but finds herself quite unprepared for the width of relationships. not everyone's bond was forged by being droped into a strange world and forced to codepend to exist

In college she doubts whether being a teacher is what she wants to do in life. she likes kids, but not so much her classes

In her second year as a teacher she questions how much she likes the kids

By year five she's glad she never gave up.

She is the go to babysitter when the other Chosen need one because she's good with kids.

Hikari rarely refuses, and she does enjoy keeping up with all the kids, but really wishes they would explore other options

Especially since babysitting the kids means babysitting Digimon as well.

She is scarily good at recognizing previous students. Yes, she hasn't seen you since you were five, she still knows.

People expect the latter to wain as years go by and more students pile up. It doesn't. Twenty-thrity years later she can still pick out old students on the street.

Hikari Yagami Week 2023- Day 2-Dancing

for @hikariyagamiweek

Hikari had always liked dancing, ever since she was a little girl.

When she was a kindergartener, she had been too frail to excel in most Physical Education classes. (unlike her brother, the natural athlete.)

But that didn’t matter for dancing. It didn’t matter if she was good at it. What mattered was what she felt. How the music moved through her as floated through the gym.

Dance like no one’s watching. A plea given to reject the tyranny of expectations and just give in to the music of your soul. To be yourself at your freest, enjoying life as you wish

Kindergarteners rarely needed such lofty words to express themselves through dance. Occasionally they could still be shy in other aspects, but when the music started flowing their bodies opened up instinctively.

Just by watching Hikari felt like she could know every one of them. Perhaps not the individual wants and fears, but their soul, their wants, and their wills.

As such, Dancing remained Hikari’s favorite activity during exercise time.

But as she watched the pile of bodies continue to grow, she wished they would at least watch themselves dance, and stay out of each other’s way.
