“Hmm? Sure, I don’t mind…”
Kaito trailed off when he saw who had called out. He might not remember every random person he met, but someone who’d said he would be able to figure out who Kid is wasn’t the type he’d forget… But it did make him wonder if they really would be able to.
He smiled at the other, putting his hands in his pockets as he completely turned to face them.
“I’m not doing anything right now anyway.”
..Yeah, xie probably wouldn’t. Urgh. Ducking freudian slips.
“Great! I hope you don’t mind the occasional slips though, because I tend to do them. Really. Often.”
And there was nothing more embarassing.
“Oh, also before I forget…”
Xie rummaged into xir pocket, pulling out a worn out paper and giving it to xir.
“It wouldn’t be fair if I was the only one knowing things about you, right? Here a riddle to help.”
There was only one thing written on the paper. ‘Ɛ//Ԁㄣㄥ|-|,/ ‘
Xie wasn’t that much of a prankster, but that sure was the greatest joke xie’d ever done.
“I don’t mind at all, just so long as they don’t pertain to my job…”
The magician watched curiously as the other felt around in their pocket and pulled out the paper. When it was held out, he glanced up at them before taking it and looking it over. After a moment, Kaito quickly turned his head back up at Alex and raised an eyebrow. If he was right about what it said, it would certainly explain some things, as well as answer his question from their previous encounter.
“Don’t know if you were aware, but I do tend to like puzzles… And this is quite the interesting one you’ve given… You sure it’s okay to trust me with this?”
