To all AkAm writers out there...

I have a silly yet serious question for you.

Why do you guys call Rei "Rei" and Akai "Akai"? What I mean is, why do you call Rei by his first name and Akai by his last name? It seems to be a widespread habit, and I'm wondering why.

Personally, I decided to use both first names in my fic, but I've been struggling with the spelling. Should I use Shuichi? Shuuichi? I can't decide and it's killing me... Ha, maybe that's why you guys keep using his last name! It's short and sweet and avoids the dilemma of having to decide how to transcribe Japanese long vowels.

Anyway, I'm really curious.

It is so annoying how Shinichi/Conan is making all the decisions in the relationship, and many see it as a romantic thing that he's "protecting her" and he "doesn't want to worry her."

That is literally why she is being treated like a token girlfriend.

Later: Just a reminder that every time that Ran suspects the truth, and he does an elaborate trick to make her think otherwise, that is called gaslighting. Gosho is having him do an emotional abuse tactic. And no! Being a teenager does not excuse that behavior, because teenage girls should not be treated that way.

This. And it's not just the merch. Who the hell came up with the ship name Akam? That has never made any sense to me. It's either Akai/Furuya or Okiya/Amuro. Why would you mix them up??? Real or fake, make up your mind. My OCD brain refuses to accept this horrible fusion.

Something that's always been in the back of my mind. What if the guards that found Shinichi when he first shrunk came across him again as Conan? Maybe during a case, there's a man that seems awfully familiar who keeps staring at Conan.

Conan's glasses slide off, and the man suddenly remembers.

"Wait, he's that boy from Tropical Land, isn't he?" He whispers to his friend. "Remember when we were working that security shift? There was a kid who ran off with a bad head wound, and he was saying some weird stuff about suspicious men dressed in black."

"Yeah, I think that is him! I remember he was wearing clothes that were way too big for him, and he kept saying he was a high schooler. Strangest thing I've ever seen on the job."

"Do you remember what day that was?" Ran suddenly grabbed the man's shoulder.

"Huh?"

"Please try to remember, it's very important..."

something beautiful about rewatching something from so long ago now that you're older

in other words i just bust a lung rewatching the man-gana den-gana episode

[heizuha-tome]

Shinichi and Ran in Romeo and Juliet (1996)

[magiczero1412]

If it has to be a woman, let it be the Goddess of the Wind because they're already soulmates...

And she also deserves better than Yokomizo! 😭

I wonder if they've ever met (through Hagi)...

thinking about making a tier list of women I would prefer Rei to end up with over That Woman, because I think it would make me laugh.

KID (sitting outside on the steps): You got tossed out too, huh?

Conan: Yeah, for yelling.

KID: You yelled in a museum? That is hardcore!

Conan: Why’d you get tossed out?

KID: Stole a pterodactyl. But it’s not like I yelled.

「 Fireworks 」

Phew, finally I can do something for them on this day! 🥹🙏🏻

I was actually going to throw away the first sketch of this because I was desperate and didn't know how to color, (I still think it's not in its best state) but at least I'm glad I didn't do that.

And I also tried to write something too, again, probably, using gg trans- but whatever, enjoy :'Db

"Hey, kid, what are you doing here?"

The familiar voice rang out between the crashing waves, carrying its usual amusement. Conan didn’t need to turn around—he knew exactly who it was.

"Fireworks," he replied curtly, igniting a sparkler and watching golden sparks dance in the salty breeze.

Behind him, Kaito Kid approached slowly, his shoes already off, leaving messy footprints on the damp sand. His signature white cape fluttered in the humid sea breeze, though the heavy moisture seemed to try and drag it down. The thief didn’t seem to mind, only glancing at the bag of fireworks beside Conan with curious eyes.

"Wanna join?" Conan held out a bundle of sparklers toward Kid.

The thief chuckled softly, a mischievous glint flashing in his eyes "You saved some for me, huh?"

"You snooze, you lose. You'd better hurry before I light them all myself."

"Now, now—there’s no way I’d let you hog all the fun." Kid stepped forward, pulling out a small sparkler. The crinkling sound of the paper wrapper blended with the endless rhythm of the waves.

Conan sat down, shielding the small flame as he lit another firework. The first burst of light illuminated both their faces.

"That thing’s gonna get wet," Conan remarked, eyeing the edge of Kid’s white cape dangerously close to the surf.

Kid shrugged, unconcerned. "Nah, it'll be fine—"

The wind shifted. A sudden wave crashed onto the shore, sending a thin mist spraying into the air. Kid blinked in surprise as a few cold droplets hit his cheek, while Conan merely raised an eyebrow, unimpressed.

"Yeah, sure, fine."

Without hesitation, Conan reached over, grabbed a handful of the thief’s cape, and tied it into a knot to keep it from trailing on the wet sand.

Kid blinked down at him. "Hey, you—"

"I told you, but you didn’t listen." Conan pulled the knot tight, making sure it held. "Watching you struggle with that thing was getting annoying." His tone was completely casual, as if this was the most natural thing in the world.

Kid sighed but made no move to undo the knot. Instead, he sat beside Conan, twirling a sparkler between his fingers.

The second firework flared to life, golden sparks flickering against the night. Kid walked closer to the shoreline, his bare feet sinking slightly into the damp sand as the light reflected off the waves, creating dazzling streaks of gold.

He stared at the sight for a moment, something unreadable flickering in his eyes, before turning his attention back to Conan. Under the wavering glow, the detective’s expression looked more relaxed than usual, the reflections in his glasses shimmering like tiny stars.

The waves crept closer.

"Uh, Meitantei? You might wanna step back a bit..." Kid said, a smirk playing at his lips.

"That trick won’t work on me." Conan muttered, shifting slightly but refusing to move too much.

Another wave rolled in—faster, stronger.

Neither of them reacted in time.

The freezing water surged forward, climbing higher than they expected, soaking Conan’s shoes and pants, and completely drenching Kid’s pristine white suit. The sparklers in their hands flickered desperately before dying out.

They stood still for a moment. Then—

"The fireworks... went out."

"Obviously."

"I told you, but you didn't listen." Kid parroted Conan’s words from five minutes ago.

"...This is gonna be a pain," Conan groaned.

Kid glanced down at himself—his coat clung to his body, his hat dripping water down his nose. "Well... now we’re both soaked." Then he laughed.

Conan sighed, shaking his shoes in vain to rid them of water. "You owe me a hot drink after this."

"Happily."

And so, under the night sky, with the waves lapping at their feet and the cold seeping into their clothes, neither of them seemed in a hurry to leave. They lit another firework—after all, the night was still young.

"Happy April Fools', Meitantei."

Conan huffed, but the corner of his lips curled up. "Yeah. Same to you, magician."

Neither of them planned on leaving anytime soon.

reverse genderbend but heikazu get the yuri beam

Why is it that Kaitou Kid has had more erotic moments with Shinichi and Amuro than with Aoko?

Later: I've been thinking about what is the difference between erotic attraction and sexual attraction, and I've come to the conclusion that I think erotic attraction is when you have an interest in someone that is not "I want to look at them and feel them."

They're interested in Kaitou Kid because he's a challenge to them as detectives, and his personality stands out compared to other villains.

It all comes down to the fact that Gosho and other Shonen authors can't write women.

miscellaneous detco

[magiczero1412]

Thanks to you doing the Lord's work... 🙏

I thought I was an Akam purist, but I can totally see the potential of Furukaza. That ship is really pretty damn cute.

It’s the year 2025. People have watched M28 and kazami is so hot and cute in it that he becomes the most popular character of 2025. fanworks of him are all over tumblr. He’s being shipped with everyone and there is fanart and fanfiction of kansuke x kazami, koumei x kazami, yui x kazami, furuya x kazami, kogoro x kazami, hiro x kazami, yumejoshi x kazami… people who dont get it finally check out zero’s tea time and are gobsmacked that someone so cute exists in detco universe. all the AUs imaginable are being made for him His merch also gets sold out every time and GA realises he’s a money cow so he starts to make him appear in all the cases. People are debating whether it’s legal that he’s so cute and call it problematic. posts erupt defending the fact that he’s a cutie pie while others say he’s taking too much space and it’s becoming meitantei kazami

GA makes him key to the BO plot and then kills him because it’s getting out of hand. The backlash is so huge that he has to bring him back. there are hundreds of polls about who the hottest character is in detco and kazami wins all of them
