[At first Dairine tried not to think too much of Conan's lateness. The guy was often busy with errands and other distractions, so some irregularities in his schedule could be expected. Yeah, the recent disappearances kept popping to mind, but Conan was more competent than he looked. Surely he wouldn't go running off to investigate them without mentioning it, right?

...Oh who was she kidding. He absolutely would.

With an aggravated moan, Dairine snaps on the audio function for her communicator. Her voice is rather tight and angry sounding. It serves as a good mask for her nerves as she tries not to think about the wendigo incident.]

Has anyone seen Conan Edogawa wandering around? He's really tiny, looks about seven years old? Short black hair, blue eyes, huge glasses... and talks way too smart for someone so DUMB!!

[Whoops, there went her composure. Dairine takes a deep breath and clears her throat.]

Er, if so, let me know right away.

[Audio - Filtered to Kaitou Kid]

We need to meet. NOW.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Dairine gives him a rather unconvinced glance. Go figure Kaito Kid would back Conan up on the glasses, what with a monocle being the only thing hiding his face.]

[She hands him the glasses willingly, watching closely as he inspects them. Dairine rolls her eyes when he puts them on over the monocle, silently judging his fashion choices. But then his expression changes and she can't take being left out any longer.]

What. What is it? Let me see!

[ KID takes off the glasses, standing behind Dairine and holding them over her shoulder so that she could look them as well. ]

See that dot? He was smart enough to leave us a starting point.

[Dairine scowls again, opening her mouth to point out that she could put the glasses on herself thank you very much when her eyes focus on the small dot of light. That gets her off that train of thought (for now).]

Geez, is he a detective or a spy?

[Really, how many gadgets does he need? She lifts her hands to adjust the glasses a little.]

Looks like we won't be able to tell the exact location without some legwork.

Tools of the trade.

[ KID would never be one to judge him for it, even if he hates that belt and those shoes with a passion. ]

Unfortunately, not. But this saves us from wandering aimlessly until we find some sort of clue, hm?

Tools only he seems to use.

[How many other detectives have soccer balls or sleeping darts?]

Then I'll need to grab some things. Hang on...

[Dairine turns to one corner of the room and scoops up a laptop lying on the floor. (Was it there when Kaito came in? Possibly not. More importantly, did he notice?) Then she hurries out of the room into the main living quarters, grabbing her jacket off the coat rack. If he bothers to follow, he'll notice the space has books strewn around. There are mysteries of course, but also fiction and comic books. Otherwise the room looks like most apartments in the area.]

Of course. There are not many others who would be in such a position as his. It's only natural he would need help in some form, no?

[ As far as KID is concerned, it would be more surprising if Kudo didn't have things like this in his arsenal. He follows behind her curiously, eyes wandering the apartment as he does so. He wonders at the laptop, but is amused by the books strewn everywhere. The mystery novels are a no-brainer, there aren't many people KID knows who would religiously read those. ]

What sort of things are you looking for?

Since he can't fight without them, yeah he does. Lucky him that he knows a professor who can make custom tools for him.

[Dairine turns towards Kid as she pulls her second arm through the jacket's sleeves.]

Other than this? [Points to the computer.] Warmer layers. It might be spring, but it's not t-shirt weather yet. Ah... Now that I think of it...

[She grabs four red and white balls that were placed on a nearby table. One gets placed in her pocket immediately as she calls out.]

Kit Kat! Mela! Tron!

[Suddenly two cat-like creatures come bursting out the other bedroom. If Kid knows his Pokemon, he would recognize them as Flareon and Sylveon. They are followed by an Aron going at a slightly slower but steady pace. Dairine kneels down to get more on their level, scratching the Sylveon behind the ear for a moment.]

Guys, a situation has come up, and I might need your help. But I need to move fast. Mind going into your Pokeballs for the trip?

[There is a clamor of noise as they all agree. With a flash of light, they enter their respective Pokeballs, which Dairine puts away with the other.]

Yes, he is.

[ KID knows too well about this sort of thing - he has Jii-chan after all.

KID doesn't really Pokemon too well. He's seen them around the city, of course, but he has none of his own. He doesn't question them, though, knowing she wouldn't bring them along if she didn't think they could help. ]

All right then, let's go.
