You can’t be a detective, you’re to prissy, Hakuba. You’d be useless…
Hakuba grit his teeth, and his body moved without him telling it to. He quickly caught up with the other teen and grabbed his arm, pushing him up against a wall. He slammed his hand on the wall beside his head, eyes alight with anger. Hakuba had the patience of a saint, and he was usually in complete control of his emotions, but Kuroba had pushed him just a bit to far.
“I don’t need to fall back on barbaric plans to fight a criminal. I’ve gone up against murders and rapist, and never once have I had to lay a punch on them. Unlike someone like you who can’t do anything without a trick up his sleeve, I think things through and plan ahead, I look into variables, and because of that I don’t need to use violence. So don’t you dare look down on me; thief.” He snapped, his words like daggers.
Kaito’s eye’s widened as the detective forced him against the wall. It almost shocked him, that the other had gotten so angry. But it was nice to see the teen was actually human, for once. However, Hakuba’s words didn’t exactly do anything to help the irritation he’d had since earlier.
"It’s not about being barbaric, it’s about staying safe, idiot! There’s a reason almost all other police and detective’s carry a weapon of some kind. Just because you’ve been lucky so far doesn’t mean you always will be…”
The magician didn’t try pushing the other away, nor did he attempt to do the same as Hakuba had before and go to the side. If he had the detective’s attention, he wasn’t going to just escape quite yet.
“And if I was Kid, like you so hope I am, I would have tricks up my sleeve so that I can be prepared. People aren’t always as systematic as you have them to be, Hakuba! There’s no way of always knowing what they’ll do…”
His fists clenched at his sides and he looked away from the detective.
“You can’t always be prepared for everything…”
