Twenty-Third Punch

[adrenalinepunch]

I'm... I'm eight again!

W-why is this happening?! Is it another virus...?!

Um... it was my turn to cook tonight, too. Aoko-chan... could you take over for me?

What's with this irony!? What?

[adrenalinepunch]

I turned eight again, and Conan-kun turned eighteen!

1/2

[konatamer]

Like I said, what's with this irony--

2/2 - oh right I need to act surprised for an entirely different reason

[konatamer]

WHAT!?

W-Wait, come to think of it... how!?

XD

[adrenalinepunch]

I-I don't know! I drank some tea and suddenly turned into a kid again! At least it wasn't painful, like Shinichi's transformations...

1/2

[konatamer]

... y-you and most of the inn, it sounds like.

Wait. Tea? But I just got a cup of--

2/2

[INSERT SPITTAKE HERE]

Gah!!

[adrenalinepunch]

Be careful what you drink and eat!

[konatamer]

[Choke, sputter, cough]

I KNEW I should've eaten out tonight-- T-Thanks for the warning, but it might be too late for me. I kinda swallowed most of that.

[adrenalinepunch]

... I-I hope it's not permanent.

[konatamer]

... I don't... THINK that it'd be permanent? I really hope not. I mean, that'd be a REALLY nasty twist to this scenario, especially if we're supposed to save the world and all.

And, well, you don't SOUND like a kid, so at least there's that...

[adrenalinepunch]

It'd be difficult to save the world in this form! My karate wouldn't be nearly as effective.

Oh, well, I'm glad I still sound like an adult!

[konatamer]

I dunno... the shorter you are, the closer you are to your opponent's kneecaps, right?

And yeah. Can you imagine how much trouble it'd be if everyone who turned into a kid started THINKING like one? We'd need a whole army of babysitters!!
