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.))

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.

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.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

And Conan.

... And Ai.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... You really do live in a minefield, don't you.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

That just makes things exciting.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Almost makes up for the lack of skyscraper-hopping there is to do here?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

That's not funny, I really miss that.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... not a lot of heights here, are there?

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

I could settle for cliff-hopping if most of the cliffs weren't above water.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

What about the red cliffs? They're mostly inland and far away enough from the inn that you don't have to worry that much about getting seen by your little roommate.

Want to have another glider adventure?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... I'd like that.

[nothingupmy.livejournal.com]

Great. I would like to have it on my actual birthday, but I'm probably going to just lock myself in the room that day.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... We can do it when we're sure nothing's going on.
