“Where were you?!”

themoonlightthief:

My muse has been missing for several days. Send “Where were you?!?” For mine to suddenly show up at your muse’s doorstep, in rough shape.

Kaito flinched, just barely managing to stop himself from taking a step back, his gaze shamefully, guiltily, darting off to the side and towards the ground. Maybe this had been a bad idea after all. He knew there would be questions – of course there would be – but he’d hoped against hope and prayed that his other self would, at the very least…

…He wasn’t quite sure how to finish that. And, in all honesty, it didn’t really matter at the moment anyway, did it?

Swallowing thickly, he opened his mouth, then closed it again, hesitating, before glancing back up towards the thief again. And the expression that met Kaito only made the guilt and utter selfloathing grow to the point that he felt like he might just throw up.

“Ah, I…”

A thin, weary smile curved at the corners of his lips and a bloody hand selfconsciously tugged the equally bloody and dirty sleeve down his other arm and Kaito chuckled, quietly, tired indigo eyes flickering away once more.

“I went to buy chocolate and got lost on the way home…?”

Very believable there, Kaito. Yes. Unless a sudden trip to Switzerland had occurred or similar, the thief highly doubted a chocolate shopping urge caused this, if the body language didn’t already say enough. A flash of what looked like a mix of disappointment and hurt flashed across his face, because did he really not even trust his other self enough to tell him the truth?

…But Kid wasn’t going to comment on it. Not right now. The magician already felt the need to lie – again – to avoid saying what troubled him. And really, pushing meant taking a risk. The other might break down and tell the truth… or asking further might push him away. But not saying anything about it might just make the situation worse… While he didn’t like seeing his other self like this… he also didn’t like those possibilities too much, either.

So he let out a silent sigh, worry and possibly the small bit of anger and fear that had sprung up at seeing his counterpart like that, after what’s been going on, softened and fell away slightly. And he looked back up at the other. Then stepped forward to put his arms around the magician, careful not to squeeze, though not caring if his own outfit might get a bit dirty.

“…Try not to get lost too often, okay? I’m sure it can’t just be me…”

Worried, wondering what’s wrong, wanting to help… The thief just shook his head though, pulling back a little and giving Kaito a gentle smile.

“You… we should probably clean you up. Wouldn’t want to leave you standing like this.”

A pause. Then.

“…Welcome back.”

Saguru?

Kaito immediately jumped off the bed, a tiny thump sounding when he hit the floor, and ran to the front of the house. He’d been getting worried since he’d gotten back from the heist, since his detective needed to take care of some work afterward. Didn’t help when he had troubles like this…

But it didn’t matter, he’d returned, if the front door opening gave any indication. And Kaito’s just going to run up and start rubbing against his leg, worry about being a cat momentarily pushed aside from being happy to see his detective.

Hakuba let out a breath as he came home and closed the door behind him. His arms were full of bags, as he’s needed to pick up things for his new guest. Well, the guest wasn’t new, it was his boyfriend Kuroba Kaito, who was currently in the form of a cat, something that had taken him a bit to come to terms with, but there was just too much evidence for it.

His life.

Hakuba nearly tripped over the grey cat that was rubbing against his legs and he skipped and hopped but was able to make it to the living room where he could put down the bags in his arms and picks up the excited cat. He held him against his chest and gently scratched behind his ears – he couldn’t help it – and smiled softly at the ball of fur.

image

“Yes, I’m home. And I brought everything we’ll need. Wet cat food – no fish – a water and food dish, a kitty liter box, scratching post for your claw, and some toys for when I’m away.”

Kaito purred and rubbed against his detective, perfectly fine with being picked up, and… well, while he hadn’t always wanted to be scratched and pet when he just had ears and a tail, as a full cat, he accepted it without much protest. Saguru made him feel a lot more safe about being like this. Not as sure how he felt about the supplies, but he knew they’d be needed right now. Though, don’t put it past the magician to try and do some things he would normally on his own, cat or not.

However, he nuzzled the other right now. Definitely hadn’t lost any of his cuddle instinct in the change. At all.

…Not sure what to think of seeing the dragon right now… On the one hand, he seemed nice enough while Kaito had been human. But… just… uncertain now that he was a much smaller cat…

He looked up at the other, tail waving slowly behind him, slightly wary. Maybe the other could understand cat language?

Umm… hi?

image

Yeah I remember him….you’re him.

Well this was a surprise. Real magic hadn’t seemed to be as prominent in this world compared to the dragon realms. At least not enough that someone would be turned into a cat. Guess he misjudged the place.

image

So you want help being changed back right? I can’t really do anything but Bianca or the fairies might be able to help. If we could find any of them. Do you know anyone here who might be able to change you back?

image

Fairies? …Well, if dragons existed, and magic, why not those too? Okay…

Kaito nodded at the wanting help, then sat down in front of the dragon as he considered.

Hmm… I do know a witch who might be able too… But I’d honestly try some things on my own before asking her help. I wouldn’t be surprised if she just tried to keep me for a pet… But aside from her, most people I know aren’t exactly quick to believe magic exists, much less be able to do something about it.

The magician smiled as well he could. So… What are the chances of finding one of your fairy friends?

(Last thing before bed, since I found this funny while I was watching the princess episode, and still do. Just…)

(Specials episode 3)

(1412 episode 16)

(…Yes, very trustworthy thief ya got there, A-1. So much.)

…Well, not the worst thing a heist target could do…

Consequences of looking for cursed gems, he supposed. But that doesn’t help when the thief needs something like, oh, opposable thumbs to actually hold the dang thing. It was too large to fit in his mouth, too. As it was, he focused on trying to move it along with his paws, maybe at least get it somewhere hidden before he tries to find out what to do. If he needed the jewel to reverse his sudden change of species, might not be the best idea to let it be returned just yet.

…Though moving something shiny around like this probably wasn’t the best idea either. It’s getting really distracting…

…Yep. Gonna play with the shiny.

Tail waving happily behind him, Kaito hopped on the stone, causing it to roll away along the ground, though it didn’t take long before he chased it down to catch it with his paws.

And before too long, his ears twitched. Footsteps. He looked up, standing defensively over the gem, ears back at the approaching figure. No. His shiny. Wait, no, jewel. His jewel. Still didn’t want people taking it, but should probably try to not get so distracted…

image

Heiji brought his other hand up to rest his chin on. This cat seemed determined on guarding that jewel. After a long moment Heiji’s patience seemed to wear down and slight irritation over came him before he stood up straight again.

“ Yer one stubborn cat.” He muttered running a hand through his hair after he removed his hat to do so. “I’ll let someone know yer up here then. Maybe they’ll feed ya! Ya do look pretty scrawny.”

Kaito’s ears folded down as the other stood, though soon perked up again when it seemed like the other was going to leave. Maybe by the time someone else came, he’ll have had time to move the gem so he could come back later…

…Wait…

image

I’m not ‘scrawny’, I’m lithe. Not my fault I got a lot smaller than I’d have thought…

Though, the mention of food caused his stomach to make a sound, and his ears went back again. In embarrassment this time. No, bad. Not allowed to make noises, at least not while people are around.

(Okay, if all goes well and I can get a more set schedule… my current goals, in order of how I hope to be getting to them.

1) Catch up on making icons from MK 1412. I’m half an episode behind, and I always feel like I could have a better expression from the newer ones I could be using for something, even if the old ones might be fine. I just feel more comfortable knowing I have the ones that are recent to work with.

2) Keep working on the reply storm. Been distracted, but I am still going through them. Ones started more recently might be sporadically responded to, because I do want to actively rp as well… Might not be the best idea, but I’m the one doing it, so I’ll be fine.

3) Hi~mi~tsu~ )
