The thief blinked at the leg hug before crouching down to give the detective a slightly less awkward one-armed hug and a grin in return.
“Oh?~ In that case, I guess I should start making plans~”
All tease, he won’t do much different than usual. Though, yes, the lack of gadgets after him will be appreciated, since the other does well enough with just his head.
…Well, there went his poker face. A kiss hadn’t come to mind as one of the first things Ran would do after coming at him like that, despite the nicer relation between them, and he’d honestly been more than a little worried, not for his safety so much as simply being unwilling to do anything to her, and… well…
Luckily what she did promptly shut down those thoughts. And most others. Possibly made him forget to breathe a few moments until the thief relaxed more and let his eyelids fall closed as he pressed his lips into hers in return, meeting the fervent ‘attack’ willingly.
Might have been mildly confused at first, and caught off guard, but minded, he did not. At all. Though… hiding the heat coming to his face from the sudden action and closeness wasn’t going to work anytime soon.
Despite the definite pause to allow the magician to gather himself, a light kiss came in return.
“You know, I have half-a-mind to find you now and see if this ‘phone dying when I’m around thing’ actually works.” He plucked the card up and looked it over, then scowled at the transmitter.
He had to be close enough to shoot this thing accurately, but he couldn’t find him from where he was standing now. Dammit.
And good luck trying to find him. He’s in his ‘incognito’ clothes right now, and he sure as heck wasn’t staying near after getting the card in place, so he just casually wandered off like any other random passerby. Didn’t want to test how close he’d have to be for it to take effect, so he’ll stick with his safety of ‘card shot’ distance and then stay in range for the transmitter to work.
The thief does know how not to bring attention to himself. Sometimes.
“Oi, oi… Give me a break, it’s not like I use my phone to just help me steal things. I do have a more normal life I’d like it to be working in, too. I doubt you’d be happy to get phone troubles, hmm, tantei-kun?”
