My, my... do you really think this is a good idea? You're already playing the sliver bullet are you not? Surely you're aware that I can't hide from him forever, especially not if he's having a bit of... extra help.

But I admit, the concept sounds intriguing and it's been quite a while since I've been able to stretch my legs...

[Conan had gotten too used to the freedom of not running into any of them in games and in this place. And so, when he walks right into Vermouth's vincinity, his first instinct is to make a hasty exit. That impulse is quickly overpowered by curiosity and stubbornness.]

It isn't a good idea at all.

I'm afraid she sees your opinion as biased so I doubt that she takes it into account. That and she seems particularly interested in exploring the potential relationship with your favorite antagonist and myself.

[deductiongeek]

That annoying guy?

[secretmakes_a]

Give the villain some credit cool guy, I think Professor Moriarty strives to be a little more than just "annoying."

[waitingangel]

You look so familiar, somehow.

[secretmakes_a]

[ ...Oh. ]

Do I? I don't believe we've met. Though if anything you probably recognize me from the movie screen-Chris Vineyard.

[waitingangel]

[ Suddenly it clicks into place. Of course! The blonde hair, those eyes; Shinichi would have known instantly. ]

Vineyard-san? When I was in America with my friend, we met your mother! She was a good friend of my best friend's mother.

[ And then, seeming to remember herself, she bows, and continues to speak, unsure what to do about that small knot in her stomach. ]

You're amazing! My mun-san was contemplating that place, too, so I could watch over someone special there.

[secretmakes_a]

You're very kind to say. My mother and I never really saw eye to eye but it's still hard to believe she's gone.

[ It's nice to see the girl is just much of an angel as ever. ]

I've heard it's a very dangerous place.

[waitingangel]

I'm sorry -- I didn't mean to bring up memories, Vineyard-san. Even if you two didn't always get along, though, I'm sure she's happy to see you're doing well.

[ No, she's met Sharon, but Ran is sure she's bumped shoulders with this woman before, too -- or maybe Chris is just that skilled of an actor?

It leaves her a little confused, until she shakes her head quickly. ]

That's exactly why I want to go. Mun-san wanted to put me somewhere a less dangerous, but -- there's a child there, a child I'm supposed to be protecting.

I won't let anything happen to him just to have a bit of quiet.

[ Pause. ]

Will you be okay?

[secretmakes_a]

[ ...and she thought it would be hard enough just keeping herself alive. ]

Don't worry, I'm much tougher than I look.



((ooc: Apologies! But I believe there is already a Ran on reserve at the box, but I also have Conan at high_seas and I know that the Conan at havenrpg would love a Ran. ))
