Kyoko has the best couch.
Takumi has slept on many couches in his life. Mostly from his mother's constant interviews with him at her side. Most of them were fine and all (he doesn't remember them) but Kyoko's is different. Surrounded by mess, the smell of freshly ground coffee, and the hum of the mini fridge full of strange add-ons.
Digimon come and go, people slide cases under the door, and his friends peek their heads in.
Sometimes Arata sneaks there when he thinks Takumi is asleep. He talks to himself while he works sometimes, muttering lines of code and cursing to himself.
Sometimes he leaves a note telling Takumi to lock the door. He doesn't bother. Lilymon is enough of a deterrent at one in the morning.
But, mainly, it's the notes on Kyoko's desk, written in her characteristic voice. It's the messy corkboard and the takeout containers he cleans out.
It's like home more than his parents' apartment ever was.
Not that he blames Mom, who texts him and worries him regularly. It's just different or it has been different until now.
He hopes she comes home soon. His two moms could be friends or something.
