Hello? Inspector Nakamori? Hakuba Saguru here. I was just wondering if I could have a look at that case file again, there is something about it that is bothering me...

Comments

that's okay, I still love you anyway <3

[tuxedo_magician]

Yeah, she's definitely something, isn't she?

[ This is probably the closest that he'll get to admitting that he actually likes her. And considering his and Hakuba's little rivalry when the other first showed up, he figures that Hakuba understands that too. ]

<3

[awhitehorse]

[ They could brofist, but that would imply they get along, and they certainly do not what do you call this conversation then, Hakuba? ]

You are fortunate to have known her for as long as you have.

[tuxedo_magician]

[ Nope, not at all. Which is why none of this ever happened. ]

Yeah. Probably the best rash decision I ever made was introducing myself to her when we were little.

[ But she looked so lonely and bored sitting there, Kaito couldn't just leave her like that. ]

But hey, you have her as a friend now. [ And him too, although they would never ever admit that. ]

[awhitehorse]

[ Exactly ]

You have a point. And I would agree, that was probably the best decision of your life.

[tuxedo_magician]

See! Even you can admit that I make good decisions!

[awhitehorse]

One. One good decision.

[tuxedo_magician]

Still! That's high praise coming from you, Hakuba.

[awhitehorse]

Don't get used to it.

[tuxedo_magician]

You're breaking my heart here.

Well that would be weird

[awhitehorse]

I never took you for being so thin skinned, Kuroba.

pfft. Although we should have the Kaitos talk to each other sometime XD

[tuxedo_magician]

Wow, Hakuba, has no one ever introduced you to the fine art of sarcasm?

looool yes, they would be terrible together

[awhitehorse]

Why yes, Kuroba, I am surprised it seems to escape you!

[tuxedo_magician]

Okay? This? This I like. Why can't the Hakuba I know be like this?

[awhitehorse]

..........................[ So dry ] How many Hakubas do you know Kuroba.

And I never thought I would say a sentence like this argh.

[tuxedo_magician]

Um.... [ his voice trails off as he mutters under his breath. It almost sounds like he's counting. ] Two! I think.

[awhitehorse]

Two. [ So dry. ] You think.

[ Please hold while Hakuba takes a moment to cover the mouthpiece so he can whimper about parallel dimensions ]

I do not know if I should be pleased or terrified.

[tuxedo_magician]

Probably both? This is me we're talking about.

[awhitehorse]

[ SIGHS ]

Sometimes I don't even know why I bother to ask.

[tuxedo_magician]

Speaking of which, why did you ask?

[awhitehorse]

Maybe, somewhere, I hope that one day I will get actual, normal, sense out of you. [ SO DRY ]

[tuxedo_magician]

That's like looking for a unicorn, Hakuba.

[awhitehorse]

Unicorns aren't real, Kuroba. But I hold out hope for you.

...........Very very very small hope, but still.

[tuxedo_magician]

Awwwww, you flatter me.

[awhitehorse]

Well I certainly hope you are more real than a mythical fantasy beast, Kuroba.

[tuxedo_magician]

Awww, I think that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me, Hakuba.
