[raventhekittycat]

presuming that gosho will marry all the couples he created that are still alive in what order do you think the girls will get married? (The three pairings im considering here from canon are MakoSono, Heizuha, and ShinRan)

There's no real deep meaning to this poll I just got curious what others think. I always felt like MakoSono would end in a really early marriage like near the end of college but then I realized that maybe because of how long its taking Heizuha to confess it might be them first.... Or they'd still be last. And I can also see Gosho marrying ShinRan first because well they're the main ship. Anyways curious to hear what others think.

[detshin]

What's your take on Sonoko and Makoto? To me they have one of the most unexpectedly wholesome relationships in the series, and not at all what you would expect from their personality types, a true "opposites attract" type thing

Oh, I like them!

I like them a lot. Like you said, they have a very wholesome dynamic and have very opposite personalities.

I think they bring out good things from each other, which is great to see. Sonoko is more calm, it's common to see her flustered and a little more shy, she's more focused. I can see Makoto getting to open up more, to go a little wild because of his love for her.

There are aspects they need to work on, of course. Sometimes those things that make them so different can be a little troublesome. Like for example Makoto's obsession with a more traditional and "conservative" style as well as clothes, which has kinda shown a side of him I think most of us do not really appreciate. What's great is that Sonoko has a big enough personality that she does not care what he says about that and keeps on being her. She dresses like she wants because that's who she is and she is allowed to do that. "I'll politely disagree with you and keep on being me, thank you very much. If you like it that's great and if you don't you know where the door is".

But I can see Makoto learning from that and just stopping with that sort of behavior he has from time to time.

He is very cute, and he clearly loves her very dearly. He just has to fix that one thing.

They are unexpectedly wholesome and innocent having in mind we're talking about Sonoko here. From Makoto I can see. But Sonoko acting the way she does when she's been so outspoken on the topic of romance and boyfriends... It's cute. She shows a vulnerable side that I don't think we've seen before.

Also. I think I've said this before, or at least I've seen it said somewhere that their relationship is possibly the most innocent of the bunch. Sonoko always pushed Ran into action when it came to Shinichi and she teased them a lot about their advances and everything... But then she struggles with the idea of just holding-hands with her boyfriend without getting embarrassed hahahaha

And then you see Shinichi and Ran, who are so often regarded as shy and stuff by the fandom... Ready to just full on make out in front of a big crowd not once, but TWICE lmao.

So yeah, it's interesting 😂

[yumedoca]

I mean I know he’s a champion fighter and likely has an insane amount of pain tolerance but I mean he did get stabbed in the arm so it must have hurt besides I like him being able to control his reaction to pain (even most supper heroes aren’t entirely immune to pain.)to both impress Sonoko and so she feels less guilty for him taking the blow that would have killed her.

True, Makoto's pretty awesome for being able to do that. Sonoko really is one lucky girl. I mean she doesn't have just one, but two bodyguards (Ran as well)??

DCMK for the ask game!

Thanks for the ask! ^-^

3 male characters I love: KAITOOOO, Shinichi, Saguru!! The OT3 ships itself on account of being my faves tbh xD

3 female characters I love: SONOKO I have so much love for Sonoko, Haibara, Sera - a late but welcomed addition to the franchise ;D

3 romantic ships I love: KaiShin duh, SaguShin as a nice second and it feels like a cope out to say SaguKaiShin now because that's just the other two mashed together so I'll say MakoSono as the canon ship that makes me the happiest and makes me go !! :D !! whenever they're in an episode together <3

3 platonic dynamics I love: Heiji and Shinichi are suuuch a dorky brOTP, I love Sonoko and Ran's friendship and how good and supportive it is, third one would be the Detective Boys (this includes the professor! He is their designated adult, after all)

3 favorite moments in canon: Okay I don't want to only list KaiShin moments so I will limit myself to one KaiShin moment. Kaito and Shinichi's team-up for the First of Blue Sapphire, specifically when Kaito broke into the mansion and had not a second's reluctance as he was facing off against the goons because he knew Shinichi had his back and Shinichi then kicking a ball to knock the dude out. Honestly the SeraRan scene when Ran remembers the waves in that sappy scene of her getting a softly colored flashback-esque moment of seeing Sera run away from her while they're at the beach and Sonoko goes "oooh? Oh are you falling for her?" like shit fam she's right that was gay, you met that chick one time ten years ago and still have such a longing and strong memory of her? And third one has to be the Eleventh Striker movie when Shinichi gets to meet the soccer team and gets to be such a dorky fanboy and just have fun, I cherish that scene.

3 favorite headcanons: ACE!KAITO has to be at the top of this list, tbh. I just. I love how performative his perviness is, it really feels more like copying what teen boys ought to be like than an actual pervy teen boy. Other favorite headcanon is that Kaito's bad guys are just a sub branch of Shinichi's bad guys; this has been vocally denied by the author as a canon sooo it remains a headcanon but honestly nothing else makes sense. Lastly, Shinichi naming his son Conan, just feels like a cute thing to do.

3 least favorite things about it: The way the narrative keeps reducing Ran to Pining Sad GirlfriendTM and regularly stripping her of all her other qualities for large stretches of movies/episodes like c'mon. You're making love look like something super not worth it like why would I want to feel like shit all the time wtf. The overdone "childhood sweethearts" trope. Ran and Shinichi were one thing. But then introducing Heiji and Kazuha, then learning that Kaito and Aoko also exist, and now lately from what I gather from skipping through the chapters, like at least two cop couples were retconned into childhood sweethearts, right? It's like. Shit it's okay. You are allowed to meet people when you're older than four. This is getting weird. And the third one HAS to be the condensed timeline I mean what the fuck the past, what, twenty years happened in half a year? Ahahahaha. Just let time pass. Even if not one to one, at least two years should have passed by now considering how much has happened, even outside of the murder cases (that'd surely add up to so many more days than half a year)

Top Three Fandom Ask Game

During a temporary truce.

Heiji: As much as I dislike working with a criminal.. We might just need KID's skills for this one.

Shinichi: Heiji, you go with Kazuha and Hakuba.

Your headcanons 😍 Do you have any for heikazu in quarantine? Or maybe the other couples?

Headcanons? I always do 😻  ShinRan, HeiKazu, MakoSono: Quarantine Edition!

Shinichi and Ran

Every morning is spent lazily in bed together. Sleepy Shinichi, caressing Ran and her soft skin while giving her kisses. She’ll probably want to get ready for the day but his sweet sleepiness makes her stay longer. How can she resist his sleepy face 🥺

Shinichi will surprise her with cute stay-at-home dates. He’ll prepare an indoor picnic date and go on a virtual tour of his favorite museums.

Shinichi will be busy reading/studying and Ran will often physically drag him out so he doesn’t forget to eat. That one time when Ran asks him to come out to the dining room because food is ready and then Shinichi, too engrossed in whatever he’s reading, absentmindedly yells back: “Be right there, Ran neechan!”

and everything goes silent for a while.

Quarantine is their prime time for displays of affection! Kisses everywhere, holding hands and many hugs from behind. 

They’re both BIG softies, so it’s easy for them to spend hours just cuddling and talking.

Cuddling and watching the TV.

Cuddling and doing anything, really. 

All while he is gently rubbing her arm, back, thigh, anywhere really, because he simply loves touching her and she does too.

On rainy days the two would sit by the window with warm cups of drink ☕ and watch the rain, talking about their past and future.

Heiji and Kazuha

At first the idea of quarantining with Kazuha makes Heiji a nervous wreck. He will claim that he hates having to quarantine with her but really, he’s just scared to death that he’s gonna blurt out that he likes her by accident during quarantine and not by any with a great scenery, without any of the grand romantic schemes he already has in mind.

As if Heiji needs another cockblocker.

Well, they don’t actually quarantine alone. The Hattori and Toyama residences are within a pretty close distance so Heiji and Kazuha just go to each other’s houses every day.

Hattori Heiji? Never a dull moment with this boy. He’s always doing something. They’ll probably have scavenger hunts around the house. Then he’ll hide some cute things like chocolates but when she finds them, they’re melted 🍫😩

Kazuha suggests making a time capsule that they can open in ten years. He says that it’s pointless and troublesome but does it with her anyway.

When Kazuha shows him videos of a restaurant in Tokyo that supposedly has many delicious dishes that she wants to try, Heiji tries to sneak away to Tokyo the next day to get them for her. But Heizō catches him and won’t let him go because it’s still too risky. 

So Heiji attempts to cook for her instead. Multiple times. He asks his mom if she can help, and when his mom suspiciously asks why, he’ll come up with a dumb excuse. Of course Shizuka knows.

And of course something goes wrong during their cooking sessions; either something gets burned, things are looking oddly shaped, or just tastes kinda off overall. Kazuha picks up on it pretty quickly but to hide her happiness, she pretends that she’s annoyed at his cooking and teases him 😒

Sonoko and Makoto

Sonoko is so giddy and excited and will probably attack Makoto with hugs and smooches right as he walks in the door.

They’re literally be the happiest couple on Earth because they have all this alone time with each other, since they don’t normally get to spend a lot of time together on a daily basis anyway.

Sonoko, overjoyed knowing she gets to spend all day and everyday with Makoto, prepares super romantic and cute things like couple pajamas and robes for lounging around all day. (Maybe even couple undies/lingerie)

Listen, Makoto is not only a master martial artist and the world’s gentlest boyfriend — he is also a really good chef 😍  Sonoko is literally the luckiest girl.

Therefore, Makoto’s the one who cooks lots of delicious meals. Doesn’t matter that Sonoko has her own cook. He loves that she’s there with him because he’s happy he can share all his meals with her.

Makoto likes to be praised by her (and she’s not shy in doing so). Though he’s quiet as always, he watches her in excitement as she taste the food he makes. His face literally lights up with his box smile as she inhales the food.

Makoto knows how to give good massages. 

And he’ll spoil her by doing sweet things for her like drawing a nice hot bath with essential oils (for an extra mile, he scatters flower petals in the bathtub for her) ❤️️

Song prompt: Broke Boy by Malia Civetz

For DCMKEmogust2021 week two’s Saturday prompts. I know I’m a whole two weeks late (classes started and travel made it difficult to continue) but this one was supposed to be fluff, but I’m not sure how fluffy it turned out. It should still evoke some cute feelings though! Tagging the blog running the show @dcmkemogust20xx Link to the song here: https://href.li/?https://youtu.be/GQYmt_A1pu8

~~~

The girls were sitting down for a lunch out. Their lives had been a little hectic of late, Ran with tournament that had just finished and the practice for that; Masumi had been assisting on a case with Heiji from sheer coincidence of being in the same place at the same time—coincidences seemed to happen a little too frequently in the now college detectives' lives; and Sonoko…. Okay Sonoko hadn't been as busy, but her boyfriend had been. And somehow that's where the conversation was turning after they had all met back up again.

"How's Makoto doing?" Ran had meant it courteously, really a simple question but she didn't know what Makoto had just done.

"He just picked up another job!" Sonoko burst out. At the beginning of meeting up she had decided she wouldn't mention anything unless asked, but here she was, being asked, and she couldn't restrain herself.

"Another?" That was Masumi's voice coming into her ears.

"Yeah, apparently two isn't enough. He's still working as a waiter at his family's restaurant and as an assistant karate teacher—why he's assistant I don't know, Ran you know how many completions he's won—and now he's picked up a third!"

"What's his new job?" it was Ran's practical voice that spoke next. She understood in part where he was coming from, watching money and working part-time jobs. She'd been lucky enough to be spared in high school, but college had been more expensive.

"He picked up a paper route, since it was the easiest thing to fit in his schedule. But do you know how early those things start? Every time I stay over I get woken up well before dawn has even broken." Sonoko groaned. "At least it doesn't deliver on Sunday."

She sighed before continuing, "I love him, I really do, but he won't take a single yen of my money to help pay for his college or rent. I offered to find a new place together so we could split it but now I'm wondering if I'd survive that."

"He does let me pay for some other things though, like he still lets me sponsor his karate tournament trips, paying for his airfare and hotels and what not, but on dates he wants to pay." She shook her head. "I really don't care who pays, chivalry being whatever, but he cares." 

When she paused again, Ran spoke back up, "Would you want to move in together if he didn't have the paper route?"

"I want to move in together even without the paper route. Yeah it's going to ruin my beauty sleep but I want to be together more! He's so busy it's sometimes hard to see him and honestly rent was a bit of an excuse, an easy way for me to suggest it, though I really wish I could help him more."

"Mmm, and he's pretty proprietary too…" Masumi added as a side comment.

"He is! It took him forever to finally have sex with me you know!" Sonoko took an angry sip of her drink, biting the straw a bit before setting the glass a little forcibly back down on the table. "I don't need anything from him, I just want to be with him!! I love him damn it. I know if he ever gets around to proposing he's gonna get worked up about the ring and everything but I don't care." After another pause, where she calmed herself down a little she added, "Okay maybe I don't need anything more from him but him, but man I wish we could have more sex. He's amazing in bed."

Ran blushed, while Masumi grinned. "Good for you then. Ahhh what do I have to do to get a girlfriend?"

Masumi's moaning was ignored, both of the other girls knew she was already pining after someone. "Talk of a ring though… You really do love him," Ran said, with just the barest hint of a question mark hanging off at the end of her sentence. 

Though Sonoko had been professing her love for Makoto for a long while now, what Ran said made Sonoko's reply a little quieter, a little softer. "Yeah... I really do. He might be broke and though that makes my mom's worry I don't care. I don't need anything from him and I'd give up what I have to support him." She trailed off before adding to herself, "I hope I can move in with him soon."

Notes:

First time I’ve written for MakoSono and in fact I think the first real time I’ve written Sonoko as well. I’m definitely not as happy with how this one turned out (I was planning to have Sonoko gush more about her boyfriend and I’m not happy with how I ended it) but I hope you are able to enjoy it nonetheless!

[detshin]

I hope I am first for 🌹 and 💖!

Hiiiiii yes you are! here we go! 

Ship that you have as an OTP: 🌹

You already know this lmao I think it doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone if I say ShinRan is the ultimate OTP of OTPs for me. Aaah~ it’s just /chef’s kiss/ the love they have for one another is so profound, you know? I honestly can’t wait to see them interact again when the time comes, be it phonecalls or messages or maybe even a Shinichi appearance maybe? Gosho did say that one time that he would be appearing soon so... My hopes are up. AAAAAAAAAA

Ship that needs more love: 💖

Hmm... I think I’m gonna go with MakoSono, (I think you answered the same? lmao). They. are. cute. af. mY GOD THEY’RE SO CUTE. They bring sides of the other that otherwise would be hidden. Makoto is so sweet with her and he takes care of her, and so does she with him. The good stuff. Also Makoto has the approval of both Ran AND Shinichi. I’d say he’s the right one for her hehe

[mintchocolateleaves]

Emogust - 14.08: Character A protects Character B. // @sup-poki - Listen. The fantasy au I created for yesterday’s prompt? I wanted to explore it some more today. So I did.

The knock comes in the dead of night.

From where he’s been lying restless in his bed, Makoto shifts. The knock isn’t loud enough for it to be originating from their home, but rather from the annex next door, from their shop.

A customer this late?

Makoto thinks that no good can come from this.

Still, it’s probably for the best if he takes control of their late-night guest instead of his father. He’s always been strong, and not altogether incapable of using the weapons that his family forges.

He pushes himself out of bed, pulls his blanket off and grabs his shirt, trying to make himself somewhat decent despite the bags he knows pull at the skin beneath his eyes.

The stairs creak on his way downstairs, but his father has always been capable of sleeping through louder sounds. He passes the main house, through the side door that leads out into the shop, and heads to the door.

Makoto isn’t a fool: He doesn’t unchain the latch as he opens it.

Outside, there is little light except that from the waxing moon, and as such, it’s almost difficult to make out the figure in front of him. Even his glasses don’t offer much help for his sight when it comes to light. What he can see however, is that the figure of his guest.

Petite, small. A female covering their face with a hood, her hands wrapped around her from the cold.

Perhaps his first thought should not be assassin, since there is no reason for either Makoto, nor his father to be assassinated, but the threat comes to mind and he feels the overwhelming urge to shut the door.

“I’m sorry,” comes a whisper, finally, “I know it’s late. I was hoping I could buy something.”

The voice is familiar.

Makoto has heard it before. One of the heiresses of the Suzuki family: Suzuki Sonoko. The younger of two sisters, she happens to be the most sheltered. Makoto has heard rumours before – that her constitution is weak, that she remains inside the Suzuki mansion because the outside is too much for her body.

Looking at her now, Makoto knows the rumours are false: she does not look an inch like a woman too weak for life.

“It’s the middle of the night,” Makoto says, for lack of anything else to say.

Sonoko shivers, nods her head. She says, “Well yes, I know that but… It couldn’t wait.”

The only time Makoto has seen her before, was during the witching trails, when her friends had been competing to see if they could advance their magicking titles. She’s cheered them on and raced onto the field when they’d advanced as if she couldn’t wait then, either.

He sort of gets the impression that a lot of things can’t wait when it comes to Suzuki Sonoko.

So, he closes the door. Unlatches it and allows it to swing open. If Suzuki Sonoko is an assassin set out to murder him, then he supposes that he’ll admit the foolery to be all his. But for now, he nods his head and allows her to enter the shop.

Nervous, she does.

“I’m sorry for the inconvenience,” Sonoko says, and Makoto finds himself waving the concern off, finds that his words fade away as he closes the door behind her, turning around to face her.

Now that she is inside, she lowers her hood.

Her hair, once long and plaited, two plaits that usually fell to just above her hips, now sits lose just past her chin. It’s uneven, hacked off with a sense of urgency that sends a shiver down Makoto’s spine.

Despite that, she looks beautiful.

“Oh,” Sonoko says, watching him staring, “I suppose I should have explained who I was before asking entry…”

He’s staring.

She probably thinks he’s staring because Sonoko is a Lady, because she’s nobility and nobles don’t tend to be seen out after dark, not when they can remain in their mansions, sleeping in the height of luxury.

“I know you, Lady Suzuki,” Makoto says, after a moment. He turns his gaze from her, focusing on the sharp metals of the knives he’s helped his father forge, trying to stifle the blush rising up his neck. “I just don’t understand what urgency would bring you to our shop.”

Sonoko glances around the store.

“Well, this is the blacksmiths, isn’t it?”

Makoto offers out a stuttered yes. They forge weapons from fire, for knights and soldiers alike, some imprinted with charms to help the wielder, and others without, but he doesn’t see how this would help her.

The Suzuki family has their own armoury, after all. Maybe she’d need to ask some of the soldier’s in her employ for something, but there is nothing she would go without.

“Good,” Sonoko says, when she notices the nod. She’s looking at the various weapons, moving from piece to piece, her finger brushing against the blades as if to assess how sharp they are. “Well, I’d like to buy a dagger.”

“A dagger…?”

She turns to him, not with a quickness that is dangerous, but rather with an urgency that is desperate.

“Or a knife,” she continues, “as long as it is sharp, and small, and altogether unassuming. I’m – No, I – I need one urgently.”

Makoto’s mouth feels dry. He says, “Give me a few days and I’ll make the best knife you’ve ever see-”

“No.” Sonoko pitches forward, eyes wide, forgetting herself. It’s only now, that Makoto really realises the pack she’s wearing. As if she’s gearing up to go somewhere far away. “Whatever you have in this store, whatever you trust is good enough.”

There are no fancy jewel embroidered knives or daggers in the shop, not at the moment. They either have standard weaponry for adventurers that come into the shop, or they have better weapons that are directly commissioned by nobility or the military.

“We’ve only got… weapons below your status at the moment,” Makoto says, and his gaze settles on her now, to the tremble of her shoulders. “I’m sorry… My Lady.”

“I don’t care if it’s beneath me,” she says, “I need to leave, and I can’t without a weapon. I’ll take a kitchen knife, if that’s all you can offer.”

Makoto frowns. He’s not going to sell Suzuki Sonoko a knife.

“We’ve got a dagger in the back,” Makoto says, thinking over the merchandise they have for sale. “It’s a smaller one, a curved blade that’s pretty light. I can bring it out for you.”

“Please,” Sonoko gasps. “However, much it costs, I just need it…”

Outside, the sky flashes with lightning.

Sonoko flinches.

“You know what,” she says, throwing herself forward, in front of him, her arms out as if to bar him from going away into the storage cupboard, “We don’t need to go back for that one, I found one I like.”

She leans forward, grabbing hold of a knife that has a hilt too wide to comfortably remain in her hands. Makoto tries not to wince. While it’s possible to hold onto the hilt, to keep the knife in her hand, it’d be nigh impossible to keep a proper grip during a fight.

“Lady Suzuki,” Makoto says, his voice low. “That one isn’t suitable for–”

“I-It’s fine,” her trembling is even worse than it had been before. “I’m – I’ll take this one please, uh–”

“Makoto,” he says, “Kyogoku Makoto…”

“Kyogoku-san,” Sonoko says, “this is the one that I want.”

He leans forward, glances her up and down. Perhaps it’s overstepping his boundaries – scratch that, it definitely is – but Makoto settles his hands on her shoulder’s. The muscles are unbearably tense.

“Forgive me, Lady Suzuki,” he says, voice barely above a whisper. “But what are you so scared of? Why would a noble like yourself even need a dagger with such urgency?”

She blinks. And then, turning away, “I need to go away. It isn’t safe.”

“What’s dangerous enough that you would be forced to flee in the middle of the night?” Makoto asks.

“The manor,” Sonoko looks up, and now, she meets his gaze with a steady determination. The fear doesn’t go away, but there’s a bravery behind her eyes too. He can almost fall in love with someone who has a bravery like that. “I overheard something I shouldn’t – a plot.”

A plot?

“If I stay,” Sonoko says, her voice low. “Then I don’t think I’ll survive it…”

So, she will go alone? Into a world she knows nothing about, fighting to survive as someone with little possessions when she’d been raised with so many? Even now, she cannot hide the wealth she’s come from – even dressed down, she looks dressed up.

“You’ll be killed?”

“In the simplest of terms, yes.”

Makoto takes a moment to consider everything. His father has years left in him, has never struggled to keep the shop up and running. He’d probably be fine if Makoto were to…

“I’ll come with you,” Makoto says. He feels bold declaring it, but honestly, he doubts that Sonoko will survive by herself. Not with mercenaries spread so thickly through the forests, not when the world is not as peaceful as it claims to be. “You won’t have to go alone.”

Sonoko’s eyes widen. “I can’t ask that of you.”

“You don’t need to.”

“I don’t even know you.” Sonoko says. “And you don’t understand the severity of this situation… if you help me, you could die.”

But if he doesn’t help, and this woman is killed regardless?

“Let me pack some things,” Makoto says, “I won’t let you go alone.”

-

Makoto doesn’t take his time packing; He fears Sonoko will leave if he does.

Instead, he grabs the essentials. A spare set of clothes, the pouch of coins he’d been saving back in order to commission a gift for his father’s nearing birthday and the first dagger his father had made him. He sheathes the blade around his waist, and then, decides that if he’s going to help protect someone with a death warrant, he probably needs a second weapon too.

He’ll grab his sword from the storage cupboard, along with the more fitting dagger he’d had in mind for Sonoko.

As he heads downstairs, he wraps some bread and cheese in a cloth, placing it in the backpack he’s grabbed. Other things too – a vial of leftover medicinal herbs that they won’t miss, and a small whetstone from the back, to keep their weapons maintained.

Once he’s grabbed everything he can think of, he heads out to Sonoko, breathing out a sigh of relief when he returns and she’s still there.

“Here.” He hands the dagger out to her, urging her to take the hilt. “This one is probably more suitable.”

“Kyogoku-san… I can’t–”

“Call me Makoto,” he says, quietly, “and you can. You should – this is your life on the line, you should take all the help you can get.”

Slowly, Sonoko nods. She looks like she’s biting the inside of her cheek, chewing on the premise of taking help. Eventually, she nods her head.

“Thank you,” she whispers. “I mean it… Makoto-san… really. Thank you.”

Makoto nods his head, stiff. He says, “Lets go then, Lady Suzuki.”

-

*A note. I wanted to add another scene into this oneshot but then my body started to complain and everything is spinning so I’ll add it at another point, if I get to it. So - yeah, this is more a promise of protection so far, than ACTUAL protection in like, a fight or anything. Sorry about thaaaat. But sleep calls.

top 5 DCMK ships?

Thanks for playing! ^^

1. KaiShin. Very very clear victor, this ship gives me life, they are soulmates and are killing me softly with every interaction

2. SaguShin. I just. Holmes geek detectives. I love them, they deserve the world

3. CoAi. Their dynamic carries so much of this show for me, I love the trust between them but also the snark, the teasing, urgh. So goof

4. HeiShin. Strangely enough not a ship where I get into fandom content really, but canon wise damn Heiji has such a crush on Shinichi and I'm a sucker for Shin getting someone he can talk to, he trusts to keep his secret

5. MakoSono. I LOVE THEM. They're my favorite of the canon ships, I adore that big, strong dork who treats her like a princess and I love Sonoko herself so much, she deserves an amazing boyfriend like Makoto ;^;

Ask me my “Top 5″ anything

04.08 - Bet

My entry for the #DCMKEmogust2020 event!

Prompt of the day - Bet

Aoko searched around the vast crowd around them of screaming KID fans. When she spotted her quarry wrestling himself through the crowd, her face split into a huge smile. "Kaito!" She screamed happily trying to overpower the voices around her. She waved her arms for good measure trying to get his attention.

When his gaze landed on her he waved back with a smile. He disappeared again into the crowd however, when a few people started to tussle around him. He was impossible to spot again after that.

Suddenly behind her she heard a loud shout of "Aoko!" From her childhood friend. Turning around she spotted him again, now he was way closer than before. 

She called his name again in a vain attempt to steer him in the right direction. He spotted her and used the elbow technique to get through. "Excuse me!" He proclaimed loudly while battling through the throng of people.

He sighed a huge sigh of relief as he was finally at her side. "Sorry Aoko, the crowd is huge tonight" he panted. 

She hit him playfully on his arm "You shouldn't make a lady wait you know" she said matter of fact.

A grin split his face before he blurted out "What lady" she promptly hit him upside the head"

"Ow, Ahoko!" He complained.

"You deserve it" she sniffs haughty, completely ignoring his complaints.

"I bet Ahoko can't go five minutes without hitting me" 

"Is that a real bet Bakaito because Aoko can too"

"Alright, you're on. A hundred yen you can't"

"Right back at you Bakaito"

He proceeds to flip her skirt. Aoko has her fist already up when Kaito drawls "it hasn't been five minutes yet"

She has to physically restrain her own wrist to keep from whacking him. She clenched her jaw and hands together in seething frustration.

Kaito snickers and dyes someone's hair in the crowd. Aoko takes a deep breath and holds it, then lets it out explosively when he loudly announced "Ahoko?! You're on your period?! I wouldn't have guessed!" She tenses up ln barley contained rage, like she wanna strangle him.

"Five minutes are up" he mutters and hands her the 100 yen. She whacks him on the head for good measure. "Ow! Ahoko!"

"Again, you deserve it" she sneers before she continues with "Aoko bets Bakaito can't change that woman's clothes without her noticing" she points to a very snobby looking woman who has literally been checking her hand mirror 12 times in the last 30 minutes. "200 yen you can't"

Kaito grins "No problem Ahoko"

Before she can change her stakes he masterfully, without moving from his spot changes her clothes to a sexy clown outfit. Though when she turns around only the back half her clothes are changed. She is none the wiser of the change. 

Aoko gapes "How did you even…" she sighs and gives him his 200 yen.

He cackled delightfully as he gets his money "I bet 300 yen Aoko can't walk up to that guy and ask him to change shirts with you" he pointed to a guy with a black 'I love KID' shirt that was in about the same size as his childhood friend. She was wearing a very pink frilly shirt so there was no way he would wanna switch his black shirt with her.

She smirked "Aoko can too" she says walking up to him. Kaito watches with growing trepidation as she talks animatedly with him for a few minutes. And then lo and behold they switched shirts. Kaito was speechless.

She looks smug as she walks up to him again with the shirt "How did Aoko do?"

He drags a hand over his face and gives her the 300 yen. Muttering all the while.

It just escalated from there...

"Aoko bets 400 Kaito can't make it to that lamp post and climb it to the top in 5 minutes" The lamp post was about 100 meters from them, a short distance if you didn't account for the mass of people.

"I'll make it in two" he announced and sprints into the crowd. 

He did it obviously.

"SEE AHOKO! I MADE IT IN TWO!" He yells unnecessarily.

And escalated…

"I bet 600 yen Ahoko can't climb that tree"

"I bet 700 yen Bakaito can't scale that building in-"

"I bet 1000 Ahoko can’t-"

"I bet 1300-!"

"I bet 1500-!"

“I bet 1800-!”

By now their betting session had escalated so much they had formed a crowd around them. Everyone was watching the spectacle with laughter and their own little bets on who would win this time.

They both panted and was at a standstill. They had totally forgotten where they were at this point.

Suddenly Aoko gets a sly grin on her face. Kaito feels dread in his veins at her expression "You wanna bet again Bakaito?" She asks all smug. "You get 2500 yen if you can do it" 

Kaito narrows his eyes, she was way to smug right now. He was wary "Alright, bring it on Ahoko" he challenges.

She looks around and spots a random fellow in the crowd "Aoko bets 2500 yen Kaito don't have the courage to kiss that guy!" She says loudly and points towards a guy a few meters from them. Damn it, she knew he was too afraid of the damn looks people would give him if he admitted to liking guys. Did she want to win that badly?

The guy she had pointed to had his back towards them, and what a nice back that was. It was perfectly sculpted by his tight t-shirt. He looked ripped, tall, darker skinned and he could just imagine the handsome face he would have. But, that was besides the point.

Kaito glares at her and she glares right back with a smirk on her face in challenge.

"Alright! Fine!" he declared "I'm gonna prove Ahoko wrong!" He says with way more courage than he feels.

-----

Makoto was chatting with his friend when he hears someone say "Excuse me" behind him, tapping his shoulder. He turns around, a polite question on his tongue when he suddenly gets pulled down by his shirt, into a kiss. Tongue and all. what the…

Suddenly the moment is broken as the guy breaks the kiss a little breathless with tinted cheeks. He suddenly shouts "There Ahoko! I did it!" To a girl further away who sticks her tongue out at him in response. Makoto can feel himself starting to blush.

"Sorry man" he guy apologises with a sheepish grin, how cute. "You are just so handsome-" he backtracks "I mean... It was a bet or maybe more like a dare" he pats his shoulder in an awkward apology. He then proceeds to walk up to his friend again and start his shouting match anew.

What was that...

---

Kaito starts his bet with Ahoko again. As he starts shouting again he gets interrupted mid sentence by a tap on his shoulder. He turns around with a loud "what?" On his tongue. He doesn't get a chance to utter it before he suddenly gets kissed by the same tall and handsome guy he kissed earlier. The kiss is hot and needy and oh my god so right. 

They break apart in the end, needing to breath. And everything around them is tuned out as they gaze into each other's eyes. "My name is Kyogoku Makoto, what's yours?" 

Kaito who is on cloud nine just answers him just like that "Hi Makoto, I'm Kuroba Kaito"

Unfortunately the moment is broken when three officers walks up to the trio. Aoko looks starstruck at the side 

"Are you the ones who have caused such a commotion?" One of the officers asks with a frown.

Kaito and Aoko chuckles nervously.

--- 

Despite all of Aoko and Kaito's protests or otherwise, they get thrown out of the heist premises. "Great, this is your fault Ahoko"

"How is this my fault Bakaito!" She seethes.

Kaito ignores her in favour of Makoto "You weren't causing any trouble so why did you follow us out?"

Makoto fidgeted a bit "I just wanted your number" he says with a soft smile.

Kaito is dumbfounded and melting at the same time. He is adorable. The magician grins happily and jotted down his number on a playing card and gives it to him "Here, it would be nice to see you again"

He received the card with care in his movements, like it was precious "Likewise, Kaito-kun" he says with a blush, his smile is blinding. "You will have to excuse me, I need to get back before the heist starts" and with that he leaves Aoko and Kaito to their own devices.

Aoko hits his shoulder "Way to go Kaito! You scored a looker" Kaito puts his embarrassed face in his hands to hide his happy grin. Oh man he did, didn't he.

Suddenly reality hits him in the face "Aoko… what time is it?"

She looks at him in curiosity before she checks the time on her phone "It's a little past 11, why?" 

Kaito panics. Oh shit. "I just remembered something I need to do! I'll see you later Aoko!" He calls back over his shoulder as he sprints full speed away from the heist location. "Wait Bakaito!" Aoko calls.

He ignores her, way too focused on the need to double back quickly so he can get to his heist. Mildly on time.

This was the first time in a long long time that Kaitou KID was late to his own heist.
