#idk i didn't ever figure out the ending on this one DJHFgasjhdg

May we see DP Laptop Redo and/or Ran & Kaito team up for the WIP game? (^^)💓

oooo lemme talk about the Ran & Kaito Teamup fic 👀

(inspired by Misconceptions, Illusions, and Lies (and Other Forms of Fair Play) if my memory serves me correctly!)

the main reason i never really wrote anything very substantion for this is because the scenes I could envision clearly felt too close to the inspiration point, and also like, the plot very quickly ran past that of a manageable one-shot ashjdgf

Summary:

Six months of carefully crafting his cover story. Six months off the grid. Six months MIA.

The rumors had only just started: the Shinichi Kudo file was to be stamped in bold, decisive red. Presumed dead.

…of course KID would manage to undo all of Shinichi’s careful work in less than twenty-four hours.

And of course Ran would get involved.

Plot/notes:

Shinichi’s cover as a dead man falls to pieces when Kaitou KID decides Kudo’s face is convenient for casual borrowing. Thanks to his careless gallivanting, Ran is convinced Shinichi is back… and so is the Black Org.

The Org’s subsequent attempt on Shinichi Kudo’s life goes awry because Shinichi is actually KID, and also, nobody told Ran that.

A fantastic mess of an action sequence ensues, during which, in quick succession, Ran:

Having only just found out that Shinichi is alive, now learns that Shinichi is Kaitou KID (?!)

Realizes Shinichi’s life is in danger (twofold. whoever these trenchcoat dudes are, and KID implies that he's dealt with snipers at his heists on the regular?!)

Saves him from multiple armed gunmen single-handedly

…only to find out that KID isn’t Shinichi after all (a relief, honestly)

…but he might have a few clues about what’s going on.

Decides that if nobody else is going to get to the bottom of this, it's going to have to be her.

And KID.

so meanwhile, Kaito realizes there’s some shady people after Tantei-kun’s missing cousin, that Tantei-kun seems to know something (maybe too much) about it, and that Cousin-san’s best friend is rather persistent when it comes to these matters of life, death, and missing detectives. Even when Kaito wants nothing to do with any of that, thanks.

Oh, yeah, and Shinichi gets to watch his carefully constructed house of cards fall apart.
