"You're beautiful!"

Said a fan of Kid meanwhile give a shy slime to him.

Kaitou paused, caught off guard for a moment, before he smiled and bowed. "Thank you! It's not everyday somebody compliments an international jewel thief such as myself." He looked up from the bow at the fan with a curious gaze, before glancing side to side. It wasn't the most crowded district, so perhaps he had some time before his escape...? "Who might you be, if you don't mind answering?"

shipping aside... making them related just ruins one of the most fun running gags which is that kaito can pass off as shinichi by pure coincidence because gosho has same face syndrome and can only draw like three unique male character designs at best and also because he just smooshed the worlds of detco ang magic kaito together for funsies

[kawarikisaki]

Obtained a frame in an odd size and drew a Kaito specifically for it.

Now i just have to figure out how I'm going to print this. I sort of have a plan, but if anyone knows a site that lets you order prints in custom sizes with good quality I’d appreciate it.

[leonawriter]

It is kind of funny that I have a mostly canon set of ships in dcmk. Like. shinichi/ran. hattori/kazuha. all the others.

And tbh I'll happily go with Kaito/Aoko and Hakuba/Akako too, except.

Then the Hakuba/Kaito/Aoko happened and it's like there's this one poly ship in a sea of canon m/f pairings. it's just. funny.

I'm left wondering what else is gonna happen. Like, is anything else gonna change, or is it going to be more or less what I expect aside from that?

It did make me think of Akako as potentially being either aroace or lesbian and just enjoying the power trip from getting people to fall for her, tho.

Random DC movie musings.

There are already quite a lot of thoughts, rants, complaints and appreciations floating on the internet regarding the DC movies so I thought let's just add one more :P

Movie 26 - Black iron submarine -

Well there has been in discussion for quite a lot of reasons but what I rarely saw was

RAN AND CONAN (SHINICHI) WERE SHARING THE ROOOMMMM!!!!

In all the DC movies, Its always Ran and Sonoko always sharing the room or she is with Kazuha or in a rare instance with the Haibara and Ayumi.

Well that also gave us an iconic combat scene and dammnnn I was definately happy and surprised to see them share a room especially when Sonoko was very much there in the resort with them.

From the Haibara angle, it was pitiful when she cried thinking of her sister when poor Naomi was breaking down for her father. But also kind of bittersweet when Ran hugs her in relief upon her rescue and she thinks of her elder sister again and this time in reassurance.

A small nugget but well presented I guess.

2. Movie 27 - A million dollar pentagram/signpost

Well I haven't really watched it yet but lets just say that enough people have had a mental breakdown because of this movie.

So I do not know how crazy does this fandom does research and all but-

a) Gosho Aaoyama had actually revealed a long time back that Toichi Kuroba is alive ~ around 2010-11, so the Japanese audience kinda already knew. It was mostly the international audience, who do not have much access to the old interviews or that which remain untranslated which were taken by surprise, perhaps.

b) Is Toichi hiding/faking his death a bad thing?

In my opinion - NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT. Because

He is a father of a very young boy. Toichi is literally investigating shady organisations using his alias of Kaitou Kid. His identity reveal with directly put his wife and son in danger. He is well aware of the dangers related to the job how else is he supposed to protect his son? No parent would want to be on a run with a young child that would be far more worse for a young Kaitou.

Even after faking his death, it's not like he can directly contact his wife because if his death is orchestrated then for sure his wife and child will be under some type of surveillance. He really needs to maintain secrecy.

His faith in Kaitous's brilliance is something to applaud for and his own genius. He left a perfect trap mechanism for an older and bit more mature Kaito to whom he can entrust the comeback of Kaitou kid and if anyone had been reading the magic kaitou manga then Toichi has already made an appearance in the manga as well (most likely) as Kaitou Corbeau, it was around the same time as the interview.

This 'Kaitou Corbeau' also claims that he is coming back after an 8 year hiatus because he was recovering from an illness.

Also is it really surprising that Toichi faked his death?

Akai has faked his death and is hiding it from his family except Shukichi. He is not very keen on letting his mom and sis know about his whereabouts.

Conan too is hiding and holding too many secrets from Ran.

Also in Japanese culture or rather east Asian countries the kids are extremely independent even from a young age.

Apparently, there was a Japanese reality TV show which had three-year-olds running errands for their parents!!! Freaking as young as three!!! It was greatly enjoyed by the audience and they found it very endearing as well.

But even apart from this. In Japanese, Chinese and Korean manga. manhua and manhwa respectively it is very common to show kids as young as 13-14 living by themselves. We feel it's wrong and neglectful but at least in the DCMK storyline, these teenagers are far well put together. Apart from solving murder mysteries, these kids are talented and well-disciplined even without direct parental supervision and the best part being, even after being distant they maintain a good parent-child relationship no matter how much we think otherwise.

Be it Yusaku and Yukiko being supportive.

Eri consistently spending time with Ran,

Heizo Hattori's Tough Love approach towards grooming his son.

Ginshiro Toyama looking out for his daughter

Sonoko, considering she is an heiress is also quite sensitive to the people around her.

Even Chikage who is shown to be travelling but is shown video calling Kaito frequently.

The bad parent may be Kogoro and Midoroko most likely but its not their fault.

Kogorou is most certainly supposed to be a comic relief so him being hopeless is just how its supposed to be.

Modoriko (Aoko's mom) has been nonchalantly introduced in the DCMK universe after 30+ years so can't blame her either per se.

Who knows we might end up seeing a similar pattern if Kazuha's mother ever gets introduced?

But DC women are far better written and empowered than many other series. They have their own stories and are pretty fleshed-out and individualistic personalities.

Also sorry for the Kaishin supporters. I have just have consolation hugs for you guys.

I was MAJORLY pissed when Miyano sisters were related to the Akai family. Apart from the reveal it just completely invalidated Amuro's character. He became the worst possible guy in the series. Again, not his fault but Gosho Aaoyama's poor writing. The problem is I am too deep into this series and even if the author keep contunuing it for the next 20 years I know for sure that I will still hopelessly spend my time reading it. ****Painful sobs**** For more feel free to read a different post of mine titled - My problem with the Akai family plot.

🚜- An icon I haven’t used at all / for any muse you want

For all you filthy icon hoarders...

-

Might as well do one for each of my active ones ^^

//Kaito is still active-ish, but I don't use these ones from 1412 all that often for the same reason as Danny's in the paragraph below. 1412 Kaito looks so much more rigid than some of his other expressions in the DCMK universe so they don't get used that often. I like my icons to portray exaggerated versions of the emotions I'm trying to write.

///I don't really use any of my Phantom Planet caps because the way Danny is drawn all rigid and stuff, especially compared to season 1 which has some of his best expressions.

//it was hard enough GETTING these Monkey!MK icons to look halfway decent, and they look really bright n' vivid compared to the moods I usually want to set when playing MK in monkey form, so I don't use em all that often anyway

//haven't used this one for Cyn since I haven't really had a reason to, yet.

Kaitou Kid hummed a small tune, sitting on the railing of some poor unsuspecting hotel guest's balcony. The heist had gone off without a hitch, as usual for his level of great skill, the gem secured and checked as usual, but to no avail. Still not Pandora. He let out a long, exhausted sigh. "Why do I even bother..." He leaned back, legs dangling, glad that he had taken a rest. Flight was normally not his choice of escape, but it had been necessary for his flourish: his performance to catch their eyes. Kaitou pulled out the gem once more, curious, checking once more, before he stuffed it unceremoniously into his pocket and let out another sigh into his hands. 'What a long night...'

[protect-namine]

I gotta say, love when a fic has a chapter where it fires all the chekhov's guns in one sitting, like just straight up bang! bang! bang! in 11k words. very satisfying

what an amazing combination of tags. I'm reading the fic going, "god you're SO dumb" (affectionate) "you're so SMART but also sooooooooo wrong genre smart"

[mar-the-magician]

Kuroba Kaito has a mannequin habit. He arranges and dresses up and manipulates mannequins like the fuggin’ Arbiter guy in Death Parade. My evidence for this? But one thing— the end of the movie The Fist Of Blue Sapphire— wHY DOES HE JUST HAVE A MANNEQUIN ARM HANDY THAT DOESN’T SEEM VERY STANDARD TO A PHANTOM THIEF.

[tanteichi]

my muse for shinichi/conan was always here but somehow it increased tenfold thanks to wifey. the audacity of making me live with this 

[guilty-love]

@goldenloved​ liked for a starter

Kyouya is quite aware of how much lady luck has blessed him that night. He is aware that this is an once in a lifetime opportunity to him. And he also knows that what he is about to do is going against everything that he, as a prosecutor, should stand for.

But then, Kyouya is only a prosecutor, right? He is not a detective or a police officer or anything like that. It is not his job to chase down criminals on a crime scene, no. He is the lion that rests in his den, waiting for his pray to be brought by him by the hunters. And then, only then, is it his job to take the prey apart.

But they are not in the courtroom. They are, in fact, in the middle of the city, late at night. There are helicopters and search lights all around the place, all of them trying to spot the famous Moonlight Magician. But none of them managed to do so yet. None of them managed to spot him.

No one except for Kyouya... or so he thinks.

It’s you, right?

You are the one they are looking for. You are that ‘Moonlight Magician’ everyone keeps talking about.

[thrushsong-kvaris]

So my feed had a post about Iris by the goo goo dolls and right after it was a post about how the ace community was targeted and driven off tumblr.

And, uh, my brain is now imploding with the need to write a Hakukai fic about them being ace because holy shit

HAVE YOU HEARD THOSE LYRICS??

I—

My brain is too excited by this revelation to actually write rn but I WILL screech about it because I need to vent some of this energy before I explode

[mintchocolateleaves]

Wanna try and work on some more Bad Form tomorrow. See if I can get us to chapter 23-24 before classes start back up again.

We’ll see.
