Sixteenth Case

[ this is probably about as predatory as you will ever see Kazuha look.

But when it involves certain teenage boy detectives who - for once - aren't her childhood friend, it's probably understandable.

Never mind the fact that she's soaked, sacrifices must be made. ]

Kudo Shinichi. I don't know how long you've been hiding out here, but I'm gonna find you.

[ LIGHTNING CRACKLE ]

And then we're going to have a nice, long talk.

We're-- [ god this is awkward ] We're close.

[Isn't it though? Damn good thing Crona will never understand what it is to ...do what you do.] T-that's good.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ you must never know ] It doesn't bother you, does it?

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[YOUR SECRET IS SAFE WITH ME. Shaking our head.] N-no, of course not.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

Because if it ever does, just let me know, okay?

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[Headtilt.] W-why would it bother me that you like Crow...? [WHY YES, THAT PHRASING WAS USED PURPOSELY.]

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ very nearly tripping over her own feet ] I-it wouldn't, I mean, I hope it wouldn't, but--

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[Boggling at you.] ...Are you okay, Kazuha...?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

Fine! Absolutely fine!

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[Watching you like a creeper.]

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ ... Crona why ]

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[I don't know how to deal with ...not being unintentionally creepy. >_>; Sorry.]

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ s'fine ] You'll probably see me around more, because the blimp's big enough to practice in while the weather's like this.

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[:o?] Practice?

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

For aikido!

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

...aikido? [...Sorry Kazuha, we're clueless.]

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

It's like a martial art, only it's mostly used as a way to defend yourself without actually doing harm.

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[We've been making this face a lot.] O-oh.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

I'll have to show you sometime.

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[Smiles a little.] I-I'd like that.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

Great! Once the weather gets a little better, I'll show you then!

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[K-Kazuha you are so precious when you glee. Glees faintly back.] O-okay.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

But first-- [ and there's the inn, so she's taking your hand and here we go ] Cocoa!

[namescorners.livejournal.com]

[Starts a little, but stumbles along behind you.] M-mmn.

[charmcuffs.livejournal.com]

[ ... one of these days, she'll remember to warn you ]
