Let It Consume You | link

When I first pitched the idea of a Kaishin murder mystery inspired by the classic Noir films of the ‘30s for this year's Kaishin Big Bang 2024, I had no idea that this would be the direction this project would go in. It’s grown into a world and story I never thought I’d have the chops to visually develop, all thanks to the hard work of the incredible @kinsdura in bringing this story to life on paper and bearing with my crazy ideas. Most of the work has been quite technical and bts, but it has truly been a team effort to get this done.

Let It Consume You has become a collaboration I can definitely say I am very proud of. As always, thank you to Mac @kaishinbigbang for hosting this wonderful event! Additionally, I want to take the time to hype up our story, the link to which is here! You won’t regret having a look at @kinsdura’s fic; it’s a joy to read and full of suspense, great pacing, and a flirtatiously dangerous predator-and-prey dynamic between Kaito and Shinichi.

This will not be the last you will hear of LICU! Hope to continue developing our little harbour town and this au into something we can all step back and appreciate in the future :) Maybe I’ll post those too 😂

If Shinichi and Kaito ever find out they're related themselves, that would seriously be *amazing* for Conan >as a disguise<. Think about it: not only would this convince Ran (and other people) that

The Kudo genetics just keep making the same guy over and over, meaning Conan looking exactly like Shin isn't out of the ordinary, and

The Kudo family is just weirdly secretive about its history. It was always suspicious that Conan is a "relative" that Kudo never even mentioned nor his parents, but that also applies to Kaito- normalizing it and easing off the suspicion.

so I had a little thought about kaito absolutely despising coffee, especially if it's straight black, without milk or cream or anything. he doesn't like the smell of fresh coffee beans and that's what makes him not like visiting cafés most of the time.

he likes nicer, sweeter scents, like vanilla, chocolate or caramel, he's even fine with peppermint.

he only starts tolerating the smell of coffee after meeting shinichi, the moment they're up close the smell of coffee just attacks him, it's like a scent that's attached to shinichi and he starts associating it to him.

he's so hopelessly in love that he starts loving the scent, he'd never drink straight black coffee like shinichi does, but as soon as he smells it, he just knows shinichi is near by.

it grows onto him as a comfort scent and even buys coffee beans to keep in his kitchen, not to drink, but to remind him for shinichi when they can't see one another for long periods of time.

i hc that kaito uses vanilla scented products, like his shampoo or shower gel. which in return shinichi grows to be fond of and buys a vanilla scented candle to remind him of the other.

Son of a Gun...

Now that I know it's been confirmed that Shinichi and Kaito are cousins, I'm dropping that ship faster than if it was molten lava in my hands.

Guess I'll stick with KaiAo (the canon ship for Kaito) and HakuKai (a very old ship of mine from elementary school).

But now I have a very good excuse to make even more found family Shinichi and Kaito stories. Imagine finding out that you have a cousin and he's a world-wide known thief while you are one of the best detectives in the modern day?

That's going to be a fun dynamic to play with.

I mean... how should I put this......

One of the few, the probably single or so few, cases where the end result is that it was a suicide, and the reason is that the woman found out they were twins.

They probably only knew each other while she had her hair dyed and she'd probably have her makeup on a fair bit, so of course they wouldn't have noticed how similar they look.

This was... about... 300 chapters ago?

But the message of "yes, of course two people will be drawn to each other and easily be able to connect if they're related," and that they can tell there's something drawing them together even if neither of them had any idea they were related is... hm. Probably something he'd been thinking of a fair bit, perhaps?

Especially with how Movie 27 has Kaito and Shinichi being related, so it goes further to point toward "there is a reason they do not just look similar, but:

"Even if we were to keep silent on occasion, we'd still know what the other was thinking" - which is what we see in real time happen with Kaito following Shinichi's deductions in the movies and in various manga cases.

So... mn. I have no idea if he meant it to be foreshadowing for sure? We'll have to wait until the reveal is in the manga as well. But it seems pretty strong.

How do you feel about ShinShi and KaiShinShi? Kudou Shinichi and Miyano Shiho have an interesting relationship as Edogawa Conan and Haibara Ai, I've heard them described as each other's doom as she made the poison that de-aged him and he couldn't save Hirota Masami/Miyano Akemi who was her last remaining family and link to normalcy. But they became each other's salvation learning to trust each other, she made him the prototype antidote and gave him as much information as she could (not as much as she knew to avoid him diving headfirst into danger) and he protected her from the Black Organisation when they came looking for a little Sherry, helped her build a life as Haibara Ai - proving that it wasn't wrong for her to confirm him as dead and come to him for help. Though I understood seeing them as strictly friends or more like siblings (thank you Professor Agasa). Ai's commentary on KaiShin rivalry/frenemies with favours relationship is great and canon gives us her amazing unrequited love but I think she and Kaito could understand each other as genius people who have done bad things without being forced to in the traditional sense partly due to their childhood circumstances and partly to revive a dead parent(s)' legacy and routinely hide things/lie to those they love to prevent them being unwillingly trapped in dark world of a life of crime due to their association with them, they are also both cold and sweet. I think she'd have feelings about him saving her too, he Knows About Sherry that's huge by itself.

First of all, I forgot to mention, but I really like CoAi and by extension, ShinShi as well. I confess that I was left wanting to participate in CoAi week, but there is always next year. KaiShinShi fanarts are cute! And I've seen an incorrect quotes blog out there that's also cool. So yes, I like KaiShinShi.

I like the concept and everything you say is great. In fact, I really like ShinShi because "they are each other's downfall", and I like it because it sounds tragic but it really doesn't have to end tragically, right?

In fact, maybe (I don't know) you saw my previous posts with Shiho x Kaito vibes, I really like the ship because they are both criminals, but they are not really bad even though they think they are.

Plus, Shiho has a morbid sense of humor that reminds me of Kaito's mother! They could definitely get along.

I think I started liking KaiShinShi because I saw a comic where Shiho and Kaito get together because of her unrequited love for Shinichi and I loved that angst. Don't ask me about the comic, I saw it once and let it go.

finding out that kaito and shinichi have been revealed to be cousins is like finding out there was a huge earthquake in the country you used to live in

shinichi had imagined what this could be like once, long before his life went to hell: the two of them working together, solving cases with deft swiftness and deadly accuracy. kaito had always been good at seeing things from the criminal’s point of view, but he couldn’t hold a candle to shinichi’s legal mind — admittedly, not many people could; and contrastingly, shinichi could never quite bring himself to step into a criminal’s shoes, as it were, and even when kaito patiently tried to explain their supposed motives, all shinichi could wonder is, but why? they’d kept up a friendly rivalry when they were younger, playmates who shared a common interest and whose parents were friends, which made it easy enough to maintain regular playdates.

it was the height of irony, then, that life landed them in this position: shinichi, fugitive of the law, running into the arms of kuroba kaito, ghost detective. (considering the effort the police force put into concealing his identity, it’d been a pain to track kaito down, but, being a detective in his own right, shinichi got there eventually — even if he couldn’t show his face in public at the moment.)

and the reason for that was coincidentally how his descent into ruin began, which went like this: “i was framed,” shinichi mutters sullenly, seated on the floor with his back against kaito’s desk to avoid being seen from the windows. it wasn’t paranoia if they were really out to get you, he’d said at the beginning, and shinichi had pretty solid proof in the form of an arrest warrant that they were out to get him.

“i knew i was getting close to something, but i didn’t think they knew it was me. i don’t know how they managed to get away with this.” it chafed to admit that he couldn’t figure it out, but shinichi was still pretty shaken by the crime scene that was arranged to look like he’d been irrefutably responsible for it; and anyway, kaito had always been the better of them when it came to hypothesizing from a criminal’s angle.

but that wasn’t why shinichi had sought him out. in fact, shinichi hadn’t sought kuroba kaito out at all. in his father’s files, there was mention of a certain phantom thief, and when shinichi had connected the dots to the ghost detective, there didn’t seem like anyone else he could go to about this. the fact that it was kuroba was an afterthought. more relevantly, after all, was shinichi’s conclusion at the end of his preliminary investigations. he looks up, face carefully blank, and says, “i think… i think they’re the same people who killed kaitō kid.”

@yoakkemae, for kaito. call.

From September 22th 1997 in Japan(couldn’t find USA/Dub release date) to April 11th 2024 they were not related

The ‘reveal’ was done in a non-canon movie, so it can be argued to not be canon but we will have to see.

why not😭😭
