“I remember that, then I got drunk n ended up naked under a kotatsu…”
“Different meme, same result, I think. Though, everyone tends to get affected when they go around regardless, so they all tend to run together anyway.”
Not as though he had heists every night. Hadn’t even done any consecutively since… well, since he found more of a purpose in stealing that would require him not to be tired from overwork. Slipping up with Hakuba was one thing, with gunmen was another…
“A firefly. When it flies, you see it flashing, and are nocturnal. And all bugs tend to hide away or die when it gets cold.”
“…I’m probably not the best person to say whether something is right or not, but in my opinion… no. It feels like that would be more lying and manipulative than something intimate should be. Whether sexually involved or just between people who are close, there should be love of some sort there’s going to be closeness and for it to last and stay well. Even if just caring about the other. I suppose one side might love while the other doesn’t, but that’s still a problem from the side that doesn’t feel anything and yet continues to be close… But that’s also more general. There are usually exceptions to everything at points that would be fine even if I wouldn’t normally agree with it.”
“Ta be honest I would pay ta see ya try and convince them.”
“It’s not like they’d be alone in it, so I really don’t think it’s as hard as you think it’d be anyway. You’ve already said you would, I clearly have no problem with it, so if you were to pay, that’d be pretty easy money, tantei-han. It might be harder if I were trying to convince them to do it alone…”
“I ain’t gonna doubt that. I ain’t as limber as ya are and I don’t have any wigs ta wear.” Heiji offered with a shrug. He really did just call the thief cute.
“Hmm… I could could lend you one. Or just fix your hair a bit… And I’m sure you’d look better in a kimono than a western dress… You know what’d be fun? getting the other tantei’s to dress up too and having a group picture~ Or going around to mess with everyone.” Seems he’s not picking up on the cute admittance, thinking too much on the idea of everyone cross dressing for a bit. Weird thief…
“That’s a pretty lame excuse KID. I was expectin more teasin comin from ya but then again ya disguise yerself as women enough that ya didn’t really see the need ta.”
…And the thief grins and there’s a small puff of smoke around him before it clears. “That too~”
“And I bet I look cuter than you anyway, so no need to comment~”
“We wanted ta be a bit different from ya guys so we came up with this. Figured it’d be fun.”
“It’s a nice change on how to do it~ More supernatural than magical…. which probably suits you better, actually. At the least, I’m sure you two will have fun, as opposed to two blond tantei that come to mind…”
“I’ve been takin notes from ya. I thought ya would be proud?”
“Oh, I am. It’s just as dramatic as we Kaitos like being, we tend to take the impossible a lot more casually. At least, when it comes to just strolling in and messing with each other.”
“Ya think, bein as allusive as ya are. Ya would be able ta avoid bein shot a bit better than this.” Heiji said his pressed against the nasty injury on KID’s side. His other working open the first aid kit he had found. Hopefully he could do something to stop the bleeding. Maybe clean the injury and patch it up.
“Oi… I think ninety percent avoidance is pretty good… for a flashy thief.”
Okay, might be exaggerating there slightly… He did get hit most of the time he’s shot at, though usually the targets he stole kindly protected him on multiple occasions… Or, you know, sheer luck. Guess it hadn’t worked this time, though. Well, at least it hadn’t been the worst hit either. And maybe luck had still played a part, with how close and how quickly the detective had been able help. But kami did it hurt. How long had it been since the bullets actually touched him?
