He chewed anxiously on the pancake, still directing his gaze away. Though he could see the other out of his peripheral vision, which had become highly sensitive since his escape.
“It’s been a week, I think. I can’t remember, haven’t been keeping track.” Not that there was much need to. Pancake was half-eaten now. “… What’s it like? Being sort of a cat?”
He wants to get over this stupid magic fear.
“Well, it’s happened more than once, so it’s not that bad. Bit lazier… most small things that move are very hard to ignore… emotions want to show a lot more, actually.” He smiles as he leaned back into the chair. “Better hearing can be nice at times, though.”
When the ears aren’t covered, anyway. And it could sometimes make him more affectionate, though it’s only really happened once so far…
Heiji felt something caress his side causing a tingle to travel up his spine. It wasn’t unpleasant but really anyone would be shocked when something suddenly touched them. Not to mention someone’s ribs wasn’t really one would caress unless in certain situations.
Unfortunately any touch to his ribs caused him to squirm and laugh a bit. Since they were rather ticklish. He quickly wiggled away from whatever had touched him and went to glare at it.
To his surprise it was Kaito KID.
“W-what are ya doin here?” He said a bit embarassed that KID might have found a weakness to exploit.
Heiji froze, sure he didn’t mind close proximity with people, but that was with people he knew. And really he had been such an idiot to try and think that the whole kissing, on the cheek at least thank goodness, as a greeting and farewell ruse wouldn’t back fire on him. Not to mention taking the flower had basically put him in the perfect position for the thief to do that.
“R-right.” He said rather dumbly his mind trying to process what to do next.
Kid grinned. Honestly, he thought the Osakan might last longer, but ah well. He’d returned the favour~ The kiss he’d gotten before had certainly caught him off guard, though the detective’s reaction was more than he’d been expecting to get back.
A hand reached down to give a light poke to the ribs before pulling back further. Might work as a decent ‘on’ switch.
“Well, now that I’ve given my thanks… My purpose here is done for now. Though, I guess if I were to leave now, the greeting would be a farewell… Unless, of course, I gave another to say goodbye~” He teased.
