Kaito talking to Shuichi in space

request: kaito going to space for the first time and telling shuichi about it thru communication things and shuichi misses him and shuichi sad so he waits a lot and kaito comes back finally and shuichi happy

AU: non-despair

note: i forgot who asked this but they were in my friend group, i swear im a good friend :( also kaitos personality wiki says that hes kinda misogynistic since he said 'women cant use weapons' but its ok hes cute. LOL i sucked at the end sry

'A flower knows, when its butterfly will return, and if the moon walks out, the sky will understand; but now it hurts, to watch you leave so soon, when I don't know, if you will ever come back.'

shuichi was always a bit fidgety. he often had the habit of twirling his pen in his hand. he finally stopped spacing off (hehe) when the ultimate astronaut himself, joined the zoom meeting. “hey, shuichi! sorry for being a bit late, the crew needed a bit of help with the storing the plants and it took a bit longer than expected.”

“ah, that’s fine, kaito. i’m just glad you remembered since you’re pretty busy now.” shuichi laughed a bit to himself. “of course! how could i forget a talk with my sidekick?!” kaito grinned. “right.. has everything been good?” the detective queried. “hm? oh, yeah, it’s great! the best thing about it is definitely the sun rising every day. how’s everything back there though?”

“hm, let’s see… kokichi has been relatively behaved, he hasn’t been pranking as often but he still teases kiibo a lot.” shuichi recalled the past few weeks. “seems like kirumi’s discipline is finally working.” kaito grimaced at the thought of the snickering boy. “how about harumaki?”

“oh! maki has been helping around hope’s peak’s elementary department. she’s been spending time with these kids called 'the warriors of hope'.” shuichi smiled and remembered the fond memory of maki tutoring masaru and jataro in math. "hey! maki's finally warming up!" ...is that supposed to be misogynistic? i don't really think so.

"ah,,, its getting pretty late and Ms. Naganohara wants us up pretty early." shuichi remembered the energetic teacher. "right! see 'ya, shuichi!" "ah, kaito, i forgot but, i-"

'The host has ended the meeting.'

hm. kaito is one of those friends who'll lend a shoulder to anyone but at the same time, he really doesnt listen at all. well, things have been lonely, even with his classmates. it just... feels like the sun suddenly disappeared from the world. "hey, shuichi, we need some help here." his uncle called out "coming!". shuichi really couldn't think about this weird romance stuff right now.

----------------------------------------

another day of pure rest after the picnic early in the morning. at this point the bell has rung, concluding classes. the batch started headed for their dorms while the usual duo of kokichi and miu catched up after skipping. it was just another dull day.

shuichi turned the knob on his door and really did NOT expect seeing his friend just snooping through his stuff.

"the all too well knit scarf? shuichi, they just bought a scarf and put it on the website!" kaito held up the crimson scarf. "it's soft, okay? anyays, why are you here? shouldn't you be in space?" shuichi grabbed the scarf and threw it back in his closet. "oh, i didn't say? we finished faster than expected and we got back to earth early!" the purplette grinned.

"ah, thats great. i'm glad you're back, kaito." he smiled. "oh! didn't you want to say something the last time we called?"

"oh, that... it's not important right now. come on, i know maki'll be happy you're back."

romance is an odd thing to shuichi. for now, he doesnt need to think about it, he's just glad kaito's back.
