[Today the Conan-collective has gathered in the library for Serious Business. Sitting in the library before the fire, a pile of candies before them, the four Conans, each with their own pile of candy, eye each other speculatively. Mugs of hot chocolate stand at hand, and a few novels are scattered about. However, all attention is currently on this

[An Aoko is wandering in annnd she looks kinda of confused as she looks around the room, her gaze finally falling on the children. Oh! They're all so cute-whoa. They're all, for the most part, identical aren't they?]

...Quadruplets?

[dynamic_brat]

Aoko! Hey!

[This Conan is standing up to excitedly wave her over.]

Come and play with us!

[handsoffmyskirt]

[...Does she know these children? They do look kind of familiar-like she should know them but she's also pretty sure she'd remember meeting a band of quadruplets.]

Oh... sure but... I don't have any candy.

[she moves over to sit down beside the girl and tucks her skirt neatly down]

[are_too_holmes]

You got to have candy to play! That's the rules.

[The Conan in the t-shirt decides.] We should send someone to get some more supplies in case anyone else shows up.

[The yukata-clad Conan stands up.] I will go. I should like the exercise.

[The girl nods.] Aoko-neechan can share mine until you get back! It's good to have another girl.

[handsoffmyskirt]

[Awww, they're so cute!]

I would offer to get it... but I'm afraid I don't know where it is. [she just offers a slightly sheepish look, wondering if she should be more concerned that these children seem to know her pretty well.]

Girls should stick together. [she smiles down at the other girl]

[not_proven]

You just got here, Aoko-neechan? Me too!

[Space is quickly made and the yukata-clad Conan heads off.]

Do you know the rules?

[handsoffmyskirt]

Ah.. yeah... I did look around some.. but this place it kinda confusing.

[she looks at the candy pile and then back to the kids. Were they gambling?!]

Um... that depends on what we're playing?

[are_too_holmes]

I have never! You say something you've never done -- and if one of us has done it, we got to put a piece of candy down! It's really easy--

[Swap!Conan interrupts.]

It's a way of getting to know each other better. The candy's just for fun.

[handsoffmyskirt]

So.. something like.. [hold on, she's trying to think of things she hasn't done before]

...Fallen out of a tree? That sort of thing?

[are_too_holmes]

[Three out of four Conan's put a candy in the pile.]

Just like that.

[handsoffmyskirt]

[A slightly worried expression crosses her face]

You three should be more careful!

[well.. it was normal for kids to climb trees...]

Now it's someone else's turn?

[not_proven]

Yup! Let's see ...

I have never spent more than a week in a weird mansion!

[handsoffmyskirt]

[No candy lost on this girl's account]

[not_proven]

[That was the plan! Sisters unite! Or something. Meanwhile, the boys are looking disgruntled.

The Conan in pyjamas goes next.]

I've never worn a br-- no, wait. I have. Um.

I've never tied my hair with a ribbon!

[handsoffmyskirt]

[Siiigh. And there goes her first piece of candy. Also, looking at Pajama clad Conan curiously. Was he about to say bra? ...naw... couldn't have been.]

[are_too_holmes]

[Girl!Conan is also a candy down. Meanwhile, Swap!Conan's thoughtful.]

I've never thought that Ran should be a girl.
