[Sheldon has the device propped up on a car and is looking to hotwire one for use. With no people around, might as well make full use of his surroundings.]
Eh, some new information, some new complications, and a few things I should probably fill you in on. Less comfortable doing so over the network; should I come to you?
[He puts the car in gear and takes off. He didn't bother wasting any time in getting there. He needed the car to get around and since the Kinshin were in heavy concentration where he was located and without his guns, he needed some way to defend himself.
It didn't take him long to reach the police station and quickly exited the car, taking his Blackberry with him. He made his way to the roof and approaches Saguru.]
Fucking traffic.
[His voice depicted no malice but the words certainly did.]
Monsters from here to the other side of town. You have a warning?

I've noticed. At least there's a chunk of them that don't seem inclined to chase along rooftops. [Oh, the things he's picked up chasing Kid; he's watching for anything that IS prone to scaling buildings/flight, and isn't that far from the stairwell entrance.]
I'm sure the normal intel can probably wait until it's more peaceful - I have gotten to meet with some of the people involved, albeit not everyone I'd want - but... well. You know how one of the saving graces has been that people are mostly from scattered enough origins that there aren't many major grudges from outside brought here?
We just had a potential monkey wrench in that arrive, from my world.
I see. And with Kudo on the Force as objective as he is presents a liability to anyone else that allies themselves to Kudo. And this Gin, do you think he would exact his vindication on others that Kudo was in contact with?
What you're saying to me is that he's not to be trusted period. Are you asking me to get in touch with him and see what his motivations are for the time being? After all, ghosts like him and spooks like me don't exactly see eye to eye at times. Don't be surprised if one of us winds up dead if that be the case.
Now I have a question for you. Is he looking at exacting his revenge on Kudo and if so, what are his chances of success?
[In Person]im_in_ur_exitNovember 21 2010, 00:04:15 UTC
Right - Kudo's going to have to dodge Gin, and aiming at everyone who MIGHT be connected seems to be normal modus operandi for them. It might depend on his interpretation of the situation, but he's paranoid
( ... )

[He nods to Sheldon's plan.] To some extent, if I do NOTHING it'd be suspicious - but I won't do anything I wouldn't do for a random stranger. I've been pretending not to know one of their targets and pretending I didn't know they exist for a year now, so. [He shrugs
( ... )
[He lights up a cigarette and thinks a little about how to do this without drawing suspicion to himself and keeping others safe.]
So you know him first hand. Does he trust you enough to keep talking?
[There was a heavy consideration that if Conan was attacked it was certainly a possibility that others could be on that list in the near future. It was better to listen to someone that had first hand knowledge than work on his own at the risk of getting caught himself and getting others killed in the process.]
Best be ready should the worst happen and I like my pants around my waist and not my ankles on the dancefloor, dig.

Not much. He knows who I am - I'm not exactly invisible back home, it's not hard; international detective, my record's not hard to trace, I've had media attention before, and my father's the Tokyo police chief - that was how I knew he was from my world, he recognized me and commented on it. He might respect a truce here on the grounds of a common enemy, but as soon as I go home, I'm going to have the world's biggest target sign on my back, and I can't feasibly distance myself from the people I know from home who're targets; I've been trying to keep things off the radar, but if he figures out I'm protecting Conan, I don't think my conversation with him will matter. I can probably interact with him, but it's not friendly
( ... )
Okay, a better question would be do you think that he could be stringing you along just to bait you into revealing more about yourself without you knowing it? Let's face it, he knows you know this Kite Kid and Conan and you did state that getting me inside wasn't such a good idea, he's most likely looking for the same things we are.
[He moves away from the fence and toward the stairwell, leaning against the brick.]
So this kid's been doing bad things to draw out criminals of a more nefarious nature. Interesting concept and a rather brazen tactic, don't you think?
[In Person]im_in_ur_exitNovember 21 2010, 08:47:10 UTC
Entirely likely. I'd rather deal with him as little as possible, to be honest - I'm in a position to be nothing more than a target, and if he's been keeping that crew secret, all you have going for you is the "common enemy" factor

Nope. Can't risk you getting hurt with those monsters running around. I'm on my way. Where are you?

Sounds like we're going to be pretty busy with new arrivals and with new threats. Who are they?
