[He still thinks most everyone on the island is insane. No, he still doesn't believe in all the magic. And yes, he's still trying to find some way to logically explain everything.

But even detective maniac Edogawa Conan needs a break. Which was why today he was taking a break. At present, he was sitting under a tree with a stack of comic books on top of his jacket laying on the ground.

They were Sherlock Holmes comics. He wanted to see if they were any good since he hadn't gotten the chance to read them back home. For the moment, he seems more than content.

...now, really, he's just asking for someone to bug him.]

Comments

does this mean they finally have something to... not make sense over together!?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

What's the big deal?

Yes~!

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

What's not...what..NO! I am not rooming with someone who doesn't have a clue!

[And now he's on his feet, grabbing the first comic book of the series and walking over to Crow and holding it out.]

Read this! It's not on the level of Doyle's actual work, but at least you can get a glimpse of the greatness that is Sherlock Holmes!

[On the bright side? He actually looks like a kid talking about his favorite thing ever.]

*taking it, but just raising an eyebrow-- and trying not to grin at that last fact*

I'll read this, and maybe more, on a condition.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

Condition?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

You let me show you what a duel looks like.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...you mean that card game?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

You got it. I couldn't show you before because of my arm, but now-- *patting the Duel Disk that is... almost always on his arm* I'll be able to.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

...so that's what it was.


((OOC: I just realized I wrote something wrong. Crow isn't in the room group. Geh, think of them all as one big group and that's what happens. Oh well, hangs around Kazuha a lot is close enough.))

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

You got it. It'll blow your mind.

((No worries, it's okay. XD// ... And yeah he is with Kazuha a whole... whole... lot more than a whole lot so that is understandable. Though so you know, Crow lives in a KaibaCorp Blimp an old Kaiba brought with the Soul Eater crew + Yami + Alice + Yotsuba. :Ob))

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

... [Looks between him. Then the comics. Then him again.]

How long do duels usually last?

((OOC: Yeah, I know. That's when I remembered that he doesn't. Just forgot when I wrote that.]

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Depends. I can't really show you a whole duel, since I don't have an opponent, but I can give you a peek.

((Oooh, I gotcha. That kind of thing happens to us all. o/))

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

.... [Debating. This is breaking into his reading time, but spreading the love of Holmes....]

Okay.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Really?

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

But you also have to read one of Doyle's actual works instead of just a spin off.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Wha-- Like a real book?

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

Yes. Even if you don't like the comic, the actual books are a lot better. So you have to read one of the actual books.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... Then I definitely have to show you a real duel. But fine.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

It's not like reading a book is gonna kill you, Crow-niisan.

But I can watch a real duel. Maybe then I'll understand why you think it's so serious.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

Yeah yeah, fine, I'll bite.

We'll see!

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

[Smirks.] Good. And don't lie about doing it. That would set a bad example, wouldn't it niisan?

Well, there has to be something to it, right?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

I get it, I get it. I'll read the damn thing's ass off!

Of course! You'll see!

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

You also shouldn't swear in front of kids. [Far too innocent smile. It was the whole big deal about his saying 'bastard.']

Then I'll be looking out for it.

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

... A-Ah. Good catch.

*nods* You won't be disappointed.

[17-going-on-8.livejournal.com]

Just remember. After all, a kid isn't supposed to repeat bad men, but it's a lot harder not to repeat a niisan. [A mix of over compensating his kidness and payback for the big deal of his swearing.]

So is there other people who know your game?

[stolethegame.livejournal.com]

I got it. Good for you, Conan.

Yup! There's Yami and Kazuha.
