History Heartwarming / TheWormProtocol

*** On this same point but slightly more Meta... One poster on [=SpaceBattles=] posted "Oh Ami... Alphamon! Your pseudo-child isn't doing well! Get over there and help her!" Five posts later on the same day, the update of him doing just that came out.

** Alphamon again. Upon receiving word that the protagonist of [[VideoGame/DigimonStoryCyberSleuth Cyber Sleuth]] was born in Bet and is still alive he drops everything, [[JerkassFacade including his distant, aloof persona that he's had up almost the entire story]] to go and search for her in a grand total of 0.3 seconds.

** Magnus quickly picking up on the problems Amy's been having, and helping her address them, is sweet both in the moment and more so when you consider what happened in WebOriginal/{{Worm}} ''without'' someone like this being there for her.

* Japan's reaction to the Death of Leviathan is equal parts Heartwarming and Tearjerking by it's nature, as the digimon based humans all take the time to celebrate and reconnect with those they love each in their own ways.

* Gankoomon even manages to have one with [[spoiler: Dinah]]. When he found her he makes the effort to comfort her [[spoiler: comparing her reactions to Blanc and Noir, and later giving her [[BadassBoast his assurances]] that the EndOfTheWorld she's seen won't happen,]] and then tries to keep the amount of any more traumatic events she sees down [[spoiler: even though [[PapaWolf he's still out for the blood of the man who's responsible for nearly killing his son]]. He even risks Coil pulling a NeverFoundTheBody trick [[JustShootHim despite Yggdrasil's urgings]] both to [[CruelAndUnusualDeath get his revenge for what happened to Jesmon]] (while having Hinuakamuy make sure she won't hear his screams)]] and get this little girl home safe faster.

* In Origins we see how all of the knights found Yggdrasil, which naturally causes many of these due to how naïve and childlike she is. The stand out example is Imperialdramon Paladin Mode himself as not only have the two had a lot of sweet interactions but when it comes to the event which made him who he is today of all the things he'd be willing to give up to undo it meeting her isn't one of them. Platinumsukamon particularly notes how close they are, with his experience raising children, and that she seems to be bringing out the best in him as what Yggdrasil says of him sounds more "Like the mon I raised, not the one he became"... Though this is of course making things a ''lot'' HarsherInHindsight for the main fic.

* Ami taking the lead in her partnership is also sweet. [[spoiler: Just like in her game it's triggered by saving a Hagurumon, but unlike last time she had no idea what she found and didn't need any outside help this time. She finds a random large black floating gear being forced to act as a battery, and despite the eyes spooking her and Arata trying to get her to stop she helps return it's (often ''vitally'' important) gear to them and get them out. ''While'' Suguhime's forces are still after her and Arata. He's also clearly very happy Ami quickly considered them as her friend, despite their quirky way of expressing it.]]

* Duftmon surprisingly has his own while "babysitting" Kayden's kids. Despite being at work he at the time is shown [[ComicallySerious having no issues]] with the year old Aster crawling on him and using him (and ''his suit'') as her chew toy (until she ''works her way up to his hair'', which only gets him to ask Theo to remove her) and has a rather polite and positive discussion with Theo ranging from giving the boy general advice to even providing some comfort about his issues with [[WeightWoe his weight]] and [[MuggleBornOfMages lack of powers]] by pointing out either of them wouldn't hinder him in any way as much as he might be inclined to think. He also shows he can be a pretty understanding boss by giving an employee the day off when they came by (while Aster is still using Dominik as her personal jungle gym) and asked to go visit his wife since she had went into labor.

* The Digignomes are little living versions of these due to their dispositions and affection for children. [[spoiler: Especially in how despite everything that's happened they still remember and honor Takato, one of their "biggest dreamers".]]

** [[spoiler: Elecmon's]] concern for his online human friend was strong enough that he managed to manifest himself into the real world [[spoiler: at only 3 months old, which for even being at a child/rookie level already seems impressive. Especially since Leo basically admitted he had at least one friend get eaten by Myotismon and hadn't been able to talk to anyone his own age for the 2 weeks he's been "missing".]]

* The more tamer and tamer like human/digimon interactions fit to.

** Alphamon took in Nicholas and Vanessa mostly on a whim with ''no'' idea what he's doing, because he felt he had to do something for them [[spoiler: and saw a bit of himself in Vanessa from how their "Gam-gam" presented it to her new Granddaughter]]. No matter how much Vanessa ''hates'' him for this he still cares about both of them enough to not only save them from jail and a foster system ill prepared for them respectively but his main reason for [[spoiler: letting Isaac live]] is because of how much Vanessa loves [[spoiler: the harbinger of a digital zombie plague, though his sentience which shows up with this also helps. And after learning how little her real "daddy" cared about her this has finally paid off for him too.]]

** That being said she was equally terrified of the idea of [[spoiler: her "Big Bro" getting himself killed in an attempt to protect her]]. Now compare this to how we saw their half-siblings Alec/Jean-Paul and Cherie interact in Worm, and how she in particular talked about how Heartbreaker using his kids ''against'' each other beyond merely practicing their powers.
