Napping at heists seemed to be becoming a reoccurring thing for Shinichi lately, or at least coming to heists not in the best of health. This time he’d actually napped while waiting for the thief and when he woke it was to the rustling of that well known cape. Hoping the master thief hadn’t realized he had been napping, he moved to try and stand, feeling off.
He wasn’t getting sick was he? He hoped not, KID wouldn’t be pleased at all.
“Took you long enough,” he teased, the long and fluffy tail behind him swishing playfully. He had no idea it was there. Nor that there were a matching pair of ears settled in his hair.
Oh, he’d noticed the other sleeping soon after arriving onto the roof. And he’d had half a mind to use a… creative method of waking him. Possibly involving rubber bands. But the detective seemed to have heard him, and was already starting to stand, with something unexpected waving about behind him….
…Is that a tail?
The thief ran his eyes along Shinichi until they came to a rest on the ears. He might have thought they were fake, were it not for the fact the tail was moving around freely and the ears turned every so often. Either they were real, or they were very, very good movable toys.
He slowly started to walk towards the detective, eyes coming down to his eyes to address him before wandering back up.
“Sorry, tantei. Nakamori actually assigned some guards to the stairs this time…. Unless that was your idea, of course… And even then, it wasn’t that much longer….”
When he came to stand in front of the other, he raised a hand and gently ran his fingers along one of the ears, an eyebrow lifting as well. They were quite warm, even through the glove, which was really making him lean away from the ‘fake’ option…
“When did you get the extra parts?”
