Kaitou Kid opens a doorway and stumbles in without looking. Everything about him appears normal, the hat, the monocle, the suit, the cape, all except his customary poker face. That was missing, which was understandable since he was walking like a drunken cat.

Oh, and there were bloodstains on him. Brown splotches of dried blood were mainly concentrated around his suit's collar. If one looked carefully, there was even some on his neck. Yet strangely, no wound was anywhere in sight.

Kid staggers blindly over to a couch, and it would seem that the sight of the furniture gave him pause. "Did I enter the wrong house...?" His words came out weak. As if he had no strength to continue, he collapsed down into the maroon colored cushions with a groan. The thief didn't even bother to look around to confirm or deny his theory. If there was anyone else in the room, he didn't notice.

Kid opened his mouth but smoothly shut it again. Stuck then in a weird mansion with a nightmare amount of detectives and several of himselves too. This gave a whole new meaning to split personality. It was also

"But tantei-kun, how will they know they left here if they have no recollection of here? Or send word back, for that matter?"

"They came back, duh." So what if he was being childish - at the moment he looked like a kid. And it was Kuroba he was dealing with here. "They remembered once they got back. Here, not there."

(Also... ?)

Kid looked at the boy seated beside him and grinned sadly. "So it's possible to leave. You just haven't figured out how." It was a hope at least.

Giving in to an urge he had for a while, he reached out and ruffled the chibi's hair. Might as well choose a version that was safe to do so with, an advantage of multiple personalities. "Tantei-kun, why don't you show me around this mansion place?"

(OOC: Also... what?)

"It's possible. But I don't think it's a matter of us figuring it out - it's more a matter of 'it happens and we have not control over it'."

"O-oi! Stop that, you..." Grumbles faded into a very strong glare. "And are you sure you're ready for that yet? No offence, but you looked like you were in a state just a few minutes ago. Give it a few minutes or something, huh?" To illustrate his point, he grabbed one of the packs for himself.

(ooc: That sentance in the first paragraph cut off. Was wondering if there'd been anything missed out.)

"No matter the world, he still doesn't believe in miracles," Kid grumbled under his breath while he grabbed another pack of red. As much as he really hated to admit it, he was developing a taste for the stuff. Thankfully, his mind was working too hard on the mansion problem to be too disturbed by his newly acquired taste.

"I'm going to have to go exploring sooner or later." What he didn't say was he was trying to keep himself busy with this multidimensional world idea to not think about the other things.

(OOC: ACK! I didn't even notice that. It must have happened during the copy and paste. Either way, disregard it now.)

"Not when the so-called 'miracles' end up with me like this, I don't." This said almost cheerfully, and he's actually starting to relax for some reason.

"I'd advise later rather than sooner. It's hard enough having to deal with all of this when it's all new. Harder, I can only imagine, when you add all this to the mix. And what happened back there. So... care to tell someone who wants to listen about what happened?"

(ooc: Is fine. I'm going offline now, but I'll be back~)

"I'm talking about the good miracles. The ones that--" Kid gave the chibi a look and sighed dramatically. "Nevermind."

In a way, pokerface had returned during their talk. Bickering and chatting was a staple part of their interaction, and Kid took comfort in that. The tantei offering to hear his problems out, however, was definitely not. Kid glanced hesitantly at his pale companion from the corner of his eyes and pulled his top hat down further to shadow his face.

"I'm trying to not think about it," he whispered in the darkness of the room.

[OOC: That's okay. I'm heading to bed too. Looking forward to your reply tomorrow! Oh, start a new comment thread? Let's give ourselves some writing space.]

"Hey, no fair just cutting off like that. Go on. Tell me - what were you about to say?"

Poker Face. When it came to that, not reacting to the fact that he could practically see through it most of the time was merely a way of being polite. He wouldn't be about to disenchant this Kaito so quickly, though.

It was because of that though, that he opened his mouth, but chose not to say anything, instead settling for an understanding nod. "I can take that. Personal experience and all. But remember I'm hear to listen if you do. Vampires sticking together and all that, right?"

He smiled at the last. Even though it was actually happening to them, it still sounded surreal.

(ooc: Sure! I usually just use the 'reply' button from the email, though.)
