Action

[eastdetective]

 [Conan wasn't normally given to unfounded paranoia. (All of his paranoia was due to completely reasonable reasons.) But in the last few minutes he had been unable to escape the feeling that something was watching him. Following him.

He turns around abruptly as he gets the feeling again, hoping to catch the watcher in the act. But there was nothing.

Still he quickens his footsteps, hoping to get into an area with more people. But he only manages to make it a few steps before he is suddenly pinned to a wall with a hand over his mouth. And a far too familiar face glaring coldly at him from a few inches away.

How?  How could Gin be here? Conan can only stare in horror as he begins to speak.]

Long time no see. I'm surprised to see you're still alive. And as a kid. Is it Conan Edogawa now?

It's high enough.

[For the kinds of days he usually had.]

That's usually a cause for celebration sometimes.

[Because. Well. Look at just the things KID was there for: flying a plane. Bombs on the roller coaster. Saving chibi tanteis as they jumped from an airborne blimp against their will...]

I guess. [She grudgingly admits. Dairine was probably calling the kettle black, considering the danger she's faced. And she's younger than Conan... technically. She decides to lighten the mood a little.]

A celebration for us, but not for the criminals of Beika City. This shrimpy Sherlock here'll give them a world of trouble.

[Dairine attempts to ruffle Conan's hair at the compliment.]

Was the last part really necessary?

Well, you have to admit, Tantei-kun, that it is true.

[Really, he was astounded that no one else figured out the trick about the Sleeping Kogoro.]

[Dairine takes a somewhat playful swing at Conan's head, making sure to go soft enough not to actually hurt him.]

Hey! That was a compliment. Be grateful!

[He ducks his head in an attempt to avoid her swing.]

[KID can't help but let out a soft chuckle. Sort of reminds him of how he and Aoko were. Or from what he's heard about Kudo and Ran. Only with less 'childhood sweetheart' undertones.]
