Seventeenth Case

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ it's a beautiful day! The sun is shining, the monkeys are screeching, there's free cake at the inn and a giant banner that says (more or less) HAPPY BELATED ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY TEAR AND HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY KAITO. Because with Kaito's luck with birthdays, Kazuha isn't taking any chances this time. ]

Okay, so that's two cakes and presents, and the food's done, so that should take care of everything! I'm definitely gonna make sure nothing goes wrong this time! No crazy events, no... love nesting, and no fish in sight! This'll be the best birthday ever!!

... Wait, if we're celebrating Kaito-kun's again, then-- I skipped mine, didn't I?

((Yeah, Tear's anniversary present sucked, and Kaito has the worst luck with birthdays, so Kazuha's combining things. Go ahead and threadhop whoever you so wish. Or just show up to snag some cake.))

... I won't, then.

Hey, did I ever tell you that Conan thought that my dad was Kaitou Kid?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

--! No, you didn't. When did he tell you that...?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

It was actually before you confessed. I was going to tell you then, but...

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... it's understandable. How did you react?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Insulted.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... I can imagine. Has he made any deductions since then?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

No, but he's pretty suspicious still.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Must get more and more difficult...

At the very least, the last time I spoke with him, he seemed more open-minded about strange things.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

That's something, I guess.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... Doesn't really help in your case, I guess.

Let me know if there's something I can do though, okay?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Will do.

Crow wanted me to tell Zuha.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

You mean about...?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Uh huh.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... That doesn't strike me as very wise.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

That's exactly what I said.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Was he persistent?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I got him to see it my way.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Thank goodness... it's for the better.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

She's way too nosy. Even if she didn't rat me out, she'd interfere with every heist.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

I can see that... that's why it's for her own good and safety.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Right!

...

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... what is it?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

If she finds out she's going to be angry.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... well, that's why the priority is making sure she doesn't.
