Mixing two Phantoms without regrets~

“For the last time, NO, I am not dressed up as Tuxedo Mask!”
Since I doubt the music for the specials will ever be released on their own, went ahead and spliced over Kid’s words for the ending/theme of them. Would try doing other pieces that aren’t so simple, but I only really know ‘I can cut the part from here and match it to cover here’ type of editing, so…

“I, Kaitou KID, shall find the Pandora gem before you do, and shatter it into tiny pieces!”
I’ve always felt like KID leads a very sad existence, considering a greater part of why Kaito became the thief in the first place was for revenge…

(..You know, Toichi probably is the reason Kaito’s so emotionally isolated and not social outside of Aoko. Not just with Kid and probably moving around a lot when he was younger, but… He kept Kaito with him more often. Didn’t let him stay with Aoko at that show, he picked him up and took him away to teach what poker face was. When Kaito did a trick and tried to be friendly towards Yukiko, Toichi picked him up and told him not to bother people. In the past, we can see Shinichi able to go off on his own and, is in fact, encouraged to. Kaito you only ever see with Toichi, outside of that one time with Aoko at the clocktower.
What if Kaito was encouraged not to talk to people? Be friendly, but not to trust? Toichi was clearly close, but… something went wrong, there… Have to wonder if he almost lost Kaito once from trusting someone and became overprotective, but Kaito doesn’t remember, what if it ties in with the fish phobia, what if someone tried to drown Kaito to where Toichi became so protective it was detrimental-:Edit: Actually, kidnapping is more likely, maybe the person kept him in a room with fish, to where he associated the experience with the things, especially since it also meat separation from his father and his phobia may have become worse after losing his dad…)

(If you don’t mind headcanons regarding other characters…)
(Still up to rpers/writers what they go with, to mention first, since these are just headcanons, but I get the feeling I could have a lot on most people in the MK world. (Would say DC, but uh…. too many characters :V )
Anyway, as far as Ginzo is concerned, he said he’d been chasing Kid since he was twenty. Which actually might mean Toichi is older than Ginzo? Since Chikage said ‘at a mere twenty years of age, you dominated the Grand Prix at Fism, the magicians’ Olympics… You were a young genius magician’, which more likely means that was past. Don’t know how much time past between the events, but since twenty has passed for him in his first appearance in Paris as Kid, Ginzo was probably younger than him to have started chasing him at that age. And who knows when the Kurobas actually started staying in Ekoda, so highly likely Ginzo and Toichi didn’t know each other before Kid.
However, Aoko and Kaito are the same age. (Meaning Toichi had a child later in his age than Ginzo did, but random information.) Toichi and Chikage had Kaito a year after Kid first appeared, and was likely busy being a Robin Hood at the time to overshadow Phantom Lady. I’d assume they’d already decided to move to Ekoda before then, but…. then Aoko and Kaito actually might have met sooner. So… it’s at least a bit likely Kaito stayed abroad for at least part of his young life before they settled in Ekoda. Ginzo’s ‘chasing Kid’ may have only happened a few times up until then, as Kid being international meant he didn’t only steal in Japan. (And probably not just Paris either.) So… in early life, whatever happened to Aoko’s mom, more likely he did spend time with Aoko, since Kid wouldn’t have been a constant presence.
Also probably didn’t help Kaito lean how to make permanent friends any better, if he’d been moving around a lot, makes sense he’d stick with Aoko when he could. General friendliness from wanting to interact while he could? I get the feeling Ginzo was the type who took Aoko around with him if work wasn’t anything dangerous, so Kid heists he probably did bring her to until he did have to go, if no one could look after her. Which is more likely how the two could meet, Kaito’s dad also involved because heist and both probably having to wait about the same amount of time.
(And just to say, no danger from the org for a very long time, it was safe to think Kaito would be fine being brought. They knew Toichi’s name and occupation, scary to be sure, but they thought Kaito was still Toichi and believed a warning would make him stop? I’ve said before a while back, but I don’t think they saw Toichi as a threat, and got rid of him soon after he started causing trouble, so at most, the last two years of his thieving career. Closer to a year.)
After Kid stopped, Ginzo probably did have time for Aoko, though it probably wasn’t the most peaceful. Kid disappearing all of the sudden, and if he did suspect Toichi by then (possible, he had more suspicious points than Kaito does), he probably put a lot of attention into looking into that ‘accident’. To a point he did transfer to homicide detective for a time, and might have gotten busier there. I don’t think Kid made him obsessed, I think losing Kid made him obsessed. Only when Kid showed up again did it get incredibly worse, either in thinking Toichi was back or trying to catch the one who was just using the name. (More likely the former, with how happy he was.)
Which is why it makes more sense for Aoko to feel victimized by Kid now, rather than in the past. The being left on her own likely didn’t happen until the later years leading up to Kid’s return. If neglect had happened earlier, I doubt Aoko would be so attached to her father to care too much, and could grow to dislike him. (Or her being sweet, loved her father because he’s her only family, despite anything,hat path comes with slightly disturbing thinking of putting up with neglect just for that, so take whichever way. Either way, Kaito did probably make the problem worse in bringing Kid back to life.)
….And I’ll make another post about thoughts regarding Toichi later, on Spider’s blog. Since the way of thinking goes against what Kaito would see, being bias in favour of his father.)
Just a handful of Kaito’s non-canon appearances~
(That last gif demanded this. But on the note, have to wonder if Hakuba’s ever been to one of Kaito’s ‘heists’ where he really doesn’t do anything. Green Dream is especially coming to mind as Kid accomplishing something, just not exactly what everyone expected. Or, you know. Ryoma or that baseball incident. I’d love to know Hakuba’s thoughts on ones like those, even if he gets that Kaito isn’t a bad thief.)
