In which there has been a slight change in plans for the Nash - Kidd investigative plans, involving Hervey, a makeover, and some sneaky stealing.
Kidd: *sitting at a table at the cafe, flipping through his notebook and making notes in crayon, since he can't find his pen*
Nash: *steps into the cafe for a bite to eat, but couldn't help but notice a little kid sitting at one of the tables. Knowing very well who it, he decided to ignore his craving for a snack and to walk over and tease the little guy instead* Hey, little kid. Are you lost? Do you need help finding your mommy?
Kidd: *swings around, bringing his leg behind Nash's knee with a sharp jab* Sorry, I didn't catch that, old man. I was busy concentrating.
Nash: Ow, HEY. The hell was that for?! *rubs his knee* Jesus.... both you and Hervey, I swear.
Kidd: *smirks immaturely for a moment* Okay, maybe that was kinda harsh. What do you want?
Nash: Kinda harsh?! *grabs Kidds hat and lifts his arm high into the air so that he cant reach it* Is this how you treat all your partners? Maybe your mother didn't raise you good enough.
Kidd: H-hey!!! *tries to grab the hat, then his expression turns dark* Don't talk about my mum like that.
Nash: *grins* Do you promise to be a good boy from now on?
Kidd: *grumble* Promise...
Nash: Heh. *rubs his head with his other hand before placing the little guys cap back on* Good boy.
Kidd: *scowls and straightens his hat* I doubt you came all this way to mess up my hair. Did you get your information yet?
Nash: Yeah! I sure did *gives a confident thumbs up* How about you? Was it a success?
Kidd: ....I ran into some complications. *evasive sideglance*
Nash: Damn... I was too late! So you spoke with Colton? What happened?
Kidd: That's the thing. I didn't. I was kind of...uh...stuck.
Nash: Phew... Stuck? Define.
Kidd: *gives Nash a skeptical look* I don't think it's really any of your business. Besides, you'd misinterpret.
Nash: My heart says no, but my funny sense of humor says yes. So tell me, what was so unfortunate to get in the way of your mission?
Kidd: Nanami decided to be my body-guard, and thought it'd be a great idea to handcuff me to her...to keep an eye on me. But she had no key. >_>
Nash: U....uh..... is that so.... *he gives Kidd a weird expression* So... um.... how'd you two get out of the handcuffs?
Kidd: *technically it hasn't happened yet, but yeah* ....
Kidd: She...found the key?
Nash: Oh... that's... wonderful. I'm glad you had fun with your playmate... even if it did interfere with the mission.
Kidd: *scowls again* How am I supposed to keep a low investigative profile if I'm stuck to someone??
Nash: Well, that's obviously your problem mr. detective.
Nash: Anyway... i'm glad you didn't get a chance to go through with it.
Kidd: Huh? "Go through with it?" You mean investigating Colton? I'm glad too, but that's not the point. What do you mean by that?
Nash: Well, there is a change of plans, I guess. See, I figured the job would be for a little kid to go through... that's why my buddy Hervey is gonna help us.much too difficult
Kidd: ...Somehow I get the sense there's more to this. Go on.
Nash: Well, *raises hand in a sophisticated manner* See, Hervey... he's got that girlish kind of figure. I figure slap on a wig, some makeup, a dress... screw it, the ! And he could go undercover and seduce Colton into telling us his plans. whole works
Kidd: ...
Kidd: AWESOME.
Nash: A-a-awesome? I kind of figured you might be against the idea.
Kidd: No way. *sneaky grin* I think this would be a great learning experience for Hervey. I'm tired of him beating me up anyway.
Nash: Yeah. I'm sure this will be a great first experience for being a spy n' all. Your playmate is going to be the one who gives him a new make-over, I think.
Kidd: M-my what?!
Nash: Your playmate.
Kidd: ....Eugene? *weirded-out look*
Kidd: Eugene's giving Hervey a MAKEOVER?
Nash: Man, i'm talking about Nanami. NANAMI.
Kidd: N-N-Nanami?! You're nuts. She hates me.
Nash: *shrug* You don't have to be around tos ee Hervey get the make over if you don't want to.
Kidd: Oh, I wouldn't want to miss it. But won't Colton recognize him? I mean, his voice is pretty recognizable on its own.
Nash: Yeah, we're going to have to practice that. I'm sure deep down inside that womanly figure of his, he's got a very girly voice that's just dying to come out.
Kidd: ...Your sense of humor is something else, I'll tell you. But keep it up and you'll get a lot of enemies, and spies need to keep a low profile.
Nash: Hervey already knows what's going down, and he still agreed to it. I won't be getting anymore enemies for awhile!
Kidd: *shrugs* Well, if Hervey's cool with it, I guess it's a plan then. What do you want me to do then?
Nash: *serious tone* Steal the Sindar Text from Cray.
Kidd: *pauses, not used to hearing Nash sound serious* You're asking me to steal? That's breaking the law, and I'm a detective. I uphold the law.
Nash: Alright, fine. We'll have it your way. We're going to 'borrow' the Sindar Text from him. This is a serious task, so I hope you're up for it.
Kidd: Let me know why I'm "borrowing" before I agree to anything. Just because we're partners doesn't mean I have to listen to everything you say.
Nash: Seems that Colton was willing to rape and kill for this thing. Don't ask me why or what it's for, but I think if he so desperately wants it we can use it to bait him. *serious tone* And if you're not helping with our mission, you're just in the way.
Kidd: *grim nod* This guy is a menace to the castle. Something this serious I know you wouldn't lie about. I don't intend on getting in the way, so consider this an agreement.
Nash: Great. I won't ask how you're going to steal it, but just make sure not to get caught. The last thing we need is someone like Cray - or anyone else for that matter to spoil or plan.
Kidd: *nodnod* It's not going to be easy, especially with Rekion awake again. She watches Cray like a hawk.
Nash: If it comes down to that, you leave Rekion to me. *scratches the back of his head* Though this might not help with my reputation 'round the place now. *nervous laugh*
Kidd: *raises an eyebrow* What did you do now? *feels dumb asking, being a detective and all, but he hasn't had a chance to really make the rounds lately*
Nash: I'm surprised you haven't heard. I had to get a little intimate with Rekion just to get what I want, and someone saw us. Now everyone knows.
Kidd: Normally I'm the one to spread stuff like that around, but I had no idea. *pauses* You did know she and Mathiu were close, right?
Nash: Actually I didn't know. I didn't even know anyone was around! It was in the middle of the woods for christ sake! ...but, sigh. Bad luck strikes me once again.
Nash: C'est la vie, I suppose.
Kidd: The woods, huh? *looks thoughtful for a moment* No matter. Just explain to Mathiu what happened, and he'll probably forgive you.
Nash: Wait, I can't do that!
Kidd: Huh? Why not? Just tell him you were offering her some comfort, and it was misinterpreted by a passerby.
Nash: Yeah, but... when I meant intimate, I mean intimate.
Kidd: ....*immature shade of red* What the heck were you doing that for?!?
Nash: You can't exactly confuse comfort with kissing!
Nash: I TOLD YOU! TO GET WHAT I WANTED!
Kidd: ... >___> That's pretty low. If you're looking to get kisses, get a girlfriend first.
Nash: Wait, that's not what I meant! DAMMIT. I had to kiss her so she would open up!
Kidd: I'm a detective, and there are a bunch of other methods you can use to get information. Flattery, insults, bluffs...kisses really aren't on that list.
Nash: But kissing is my specialty. *thumbs up*
Nash: B-but that's besides the point.
Nash: I got what I wanted, that's all that matters! Right?
Kidd: ...I'm thinking I feel more mature than you right now, old man. *cheeky grin*
Nash: That's probably because you haven'et hit puberty yet, little guy.
Kidd: *strikes a nerve* I have so. But that's not the point. Just because you got your information, that doesn't mean everything is all daisies.
Kidd: If half the castle is angry at you, it's going to make things difficult.
Nash: And you think fessing up WHY I was kissing her is going to make them any happier?
Kidd: And you think letting them think up their OWN explanations is any better? You know how messed up half the population around here is.
Nash: Whatever explanation they come up with is probably a lot better than "Leading a girl on only to get what you want".
Nash: Correction. A handicapped woman.
Kidd: *shakes his head* You shouldn't have done it in the first place. Rule number two for the code of detective-work: don't let romantic relationships get in the way of work.
Nash: Yeah. The only problem is and I'm a harmonian spy. you're a detective
Nash: We have a tendency to do things our way. Even if it means getting intimate.
Kidd: Maybe spy-life is more glamorous, but whatever. Don't make a slip-up like that next time. *cheeky smirk* Especially around Colton~
Nash: *grin* Then you should probably pass that onto Hervey.
Kidd: ....Do I really need to?
Nash: You know how he is.
Kidd: But he's such a bright guy. I'm sure he'll catch on.
Nash: *laugh* Yeah, bright guy indeed!
Kidd: *grin* Well, if that's all, I'll start making plans for my end of the deal.
Nash: And don't let anything like being bondaged up again get in the way of the mission, m'kay?
Kidd: B-b--*sputter* YES, SIR. *glare*
Nash: *grin* Good boy.
Kidd: *scowls and turns back to his notebook*
Nash: Well, talk to you later kiddo. *turns around and brings his hand up in a waving motion, leaving the cafe and totally forgetting that he originally came there to eat*
