“Lucky,” he grumbled and crossed his arms tightly over his chest, resisting the urge to pinch at his face again — revenge for all those times he thought it would be funny to disguise as him.
“I’m surprised you’re not using this to your advantage. I’m sure your female fans would be all over a smaller version,” because goodness knows the attention given to him by girls his age had doubled since being shrunk. Most of the time he didn’t mind it, especially when the pretty ones hugged onto him.
“That does sound like a plan~ Though, they wouldn’t really be thinking I’m myself… Wouldn’t entirely make a difference if they were really my fans or not, they’d just be giving a cute kid attention. Which is fine by me~”
Kaito moved his arms behind his head as he gave the detective a wide grin.
“Hmm… More than the fans, though… I wonder how people would act if I did show up to a heist like this. At the very least, even if I got caught, the police wouldn’t be able to completely arrest me, now would they? After all…” The grin fell into a cheerful smile, and a slight tilt of the head and more childish voice… oh so innocent, “I’m just a little ‘Kid’ right now~”
“Well, gotta say, I think I got the better end of things here~”
Painful transformation and mildly annoying size to do things with, but at least he didn’t have to deal with having his legs replaced with that.
“Hmm… It said I had to answer honestly, it didn’t say I’d be forced to tell, you know. And I’m sure people have had more exciting fantasies for me than I’ve had myself…”
“Besides, I like keeping the option open of living my fantasies at some point. But while I don’t really want to think and tell, I’m sure the mun will be happy to oblige all of you anons who keep trying to get details and actually give you something to read at some point. Honestly, I’m really not sure why people seem to think I’d want to go into detail about those out loud. I like those in my head, thank you very much, and really, you guys are lucky I’m willing to even give vague accounts at times…”
Aries : Rage, impulsive and failure to get worked up about the things they normally do, oppositional but with less verve and energy
Taurus : Isolation, binge eating and lethargy, a sense of ‘me against the world’, less patience, easier to enrage
Gemini : Silence, nerves, over thinking, easily distractible and seems ‘elsewhere’; they are fairly intolerable to sadness they tend to detach/dissociate from feelings after a short while
Cancer : Teariness, neediness, isolation, binge eating, crying after insignificant events, stomach aches, a feeling of separation from everyone around them
Leo : Obvious displays of stress, they become like a wound up string and as if they are on the brink of a nervous break down. Short tempered and needy (only around close friends/family) and become martyred
Virgo: Isolation, heightened compulsions (cleaning, washing hands more etc;), unresponsive in conversations, at time blunt and more oppositional
Libra : General feeling of instability/moodiness, reduced urge to socialize/be with friends, hopelessness, a feeling of being disliked/rejected by everyone, you can sense them ‘trying’ to be happy and keep composed
Scorpio : Isolation, opposition, hostility and violent mood swings. Intense melancholy with at times delusions and paranoia. Thoughts even scary to them, a sense of ‘me against the world’.
Sagittarius : Lethargy, escapism (substance use etc;), uncharacteristically more serious and tense, less tolerance, feelings of worry when thinking into the future
Capricorn : De-motivation, lethargy, hopelessness, over thinking, they seem tense and ‘overly alert’, hyper vigilant, force themselves to ‘go through the motions’, nothing impresses them
Aquarius : Uneasy, harder to ‘reach’; as if they are far away. Silence, isolation, detachment, even though they try to appear happy. Distracted
Pisces : Teariness, anxiety, isolation, when they feel sadness they tend to feel ‘all at once’, nerves, obsessive/ruminating thinking, remembering everything bad that ever happened to them, crying over insignificant events
And he’s just going to aim a flustered glare at his duplicate, before quickly averting his gaze again. Huff. Like it was that easy to forget about something like…that.
“If you’re just gonna stand there, then you might as well help.”
"But it’s fun watching you be all red-faced and flustered~”
He continued to grin, largely ignoring the glare that was briefly sent his way.
“…And help how? Distract you? Or possibly help with a problem?~” So, so evil of a grin. “Or perhaps you’re hoping someone will carry that out with you~” All of the teasing was probably going to come back at him some day, but for now, he seemed to feel like making the situation worse. Joy.
”If you really are a ghost, then you wouldn’t mind me kicking a ball at you? It would go right through, wouldn’t it?”
“Ah…. N-not all ghosts are intangible, tantei-kun, so…. not necessarily…” And if it’s all the same, there doesn’t need to be testing to see whether this ‘phantom’ was tangible or not…
He’s not sure why the thief has perched himself on the balcony outside the room he shares with Kogoro, but he’s grabbed the boy’s attention. “What are you doing?”
“Nothing in particular,” Kid said, settling on the railing and letting a leg slip down to dangle over the edge as he casually rested an arm on the other knee. He hadn’t quite meant to be seen, intending to just leave a note somewhere for the other to find. But this could work too… So long as the other didn’t suddenly try and attack him with those balls or anything.
