Absolutely NOT looking for a Hakuba for vatheon

[theinfamous1412]

Dear Mun,

No. Hakuba Saguru would not be 'an awesome addition to the train wreck' that is my CR with the current cast.

Kindly remove the thought from your head. However, if you would like to pursue the idea of enabling that delightful gentleman thief you may feel free to do so.

I think if you're depending on Nakamori-keibu or me to catch you, you'll be waiting for a very long time.

And if you ever get sloppy enough to be caught by anybody else then you deserve the worst sentence possible.

[theinfamous1412]

As if anyone could catch this Kaitou Kid.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

Just make sure it isn't a bullet that does the job, either, Kid.

[theinfamous1412]

I'm more than capable of looking out for myself, Detective. Though I thank you for your concern.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

I'll believe that when I see it.

...
Coincidentally, is it just gems you're cycling through these days?

[theinfamous1412]

I will neither confirm nor deny any assessments you make about me or my habits.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

[Genuinely rolling his eyes now.]

When's the last time you've seen me at a heist, Kid? Do you really think any of this mysterious phantom bullshit is necessary with me?

[theinfamous1412]

Language detective, there might be small ears about.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

If you're still referring to Edogawa-kun, I'm almost certain that I've heard him say worse.

[theinfamous1412]

I won't deny that. But actually, there's no telling when a small child might wander in. It's a very public place. [ Actually he's just trying to distract him the previous question, but hey. ]

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

They're going to hear it at some point in their future anyway- the world is a dirty place. I'm only preparing them for an unsheltered reality.

Besides, they would deserve nothing less for intruding on a private conversation.

[theinfamous1412]

A private conversation in a public place. Has that ever worked well?

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

It does when people mind their own business.

Would you like to see my family's collection of gems? They're not numerous or terribly ostentatious, but I've seen you target smaller before.

[theinfamous1412]

...So now you think you can bait me with shiny objects now?

[ S-sad that it might be working. ]

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

[That's because Kid is a magpie.]

"Bait" you say. I thought I made it clear to you, Kid-san, I'm not interested in catching you anymore.

I've turned my eyes to larger prey.

[theinfamous1412]

..Is there any reason that sounds like the worst lie I've ever heard? Or did you honestly give up trying because you realized you couldn't?

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

Or perhaps I'm simply planning on catching two birds with one stone.

[theinfamous1412]

[ S-suddenly the sense of impending doom ]

...

I don't know how you missed the memo, but despite an occasional accomplice, I work alone. So how do you intend to catch me while going after someone else?

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

I told you, Kid-san, I don't intend to catch you. There are other ways to get you out of the sky and free up the police to focus on more dangerous criminals.

[theinfamous1412]

And how do you intend to do that?

Perhaps you've been away too long, but generally, if I think someone is a danger to society I take a small vacation to allow the police the time they need to catch the bigger threat.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

Except for you when don't. [Which is all the time.]

I'm not an idiot, Kid, nor am I blind. And the task force has a strict policy of no gunfire at Kid heists.

[theinfamous1412]

It's not uncommon knowledge that some people get a little touchy about me taking their things and some of them go as far as to hire hitman to take pot shots at me.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

Really Kid-san, the same one every time? Is there only one assassin available for hire in all of Japan?

[theinfamous1412]

Possibly only one stupid enough to try and kill me.

[keepcalmandcatchkid]

This roundabout conversation is beginning to bore me, Kid. You don't really think so low of me that you actually believe that I'm going to swallow any of this swill, do you?
