[ ...well, Beika or not, Ran knows she still has people to take care of here. Wth what happened to Heiji and Adam, and Conan being around--she feels she really can't afford to slack, even if she still worries about how things are going back home, with her father, her best friend Sonoko...the other Detective Boys.
She's snuck out early this morning

Does he look a little like someone you know, Ran?]

His hair is a complete mess. That's the first thing she notices. ]

She knows him well enough to know that something is different.
She just doesn't know what. ]

Even though she'd intended to find out more about them, she's sufficiently distracted now, and there are so many emotions running through her head right now, she doesn't even know where to begin.
Should she laugh? Should she cry? Should she just freaking whack him over the head, making her wait this long? Should she worry, because he's here of all places?
Wait-- ]

Okay.
Breathe. Breathe...just stay calm, there's probably an explanation for all this. Maybe...
Ran slowly walks up to him, pausing for a moment, before-- ]

HAHAHA Ran wishes. Not that she'd ever say that, but having him around, reliably, without running off and getting himself into trouble--yeah, that's all she wants.
But apparently that's too much to ask.
She stares at him as he introduces himself, studying him...really, the resemblance is uncanny. It almost hurts to look at...so she averts her eyes ever slightly to focus on something else. ]
...you...you know him, then?
[ ...tch. ]
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Even though he's gone, he's still made quite a name for himself.

[And Kaito is seriously not going to take offense at her averting her eyes, okay, that look is intense and he absolutely got enough of it up on that ship when he was actually pretending to be Shinichi.]

Figures; Heiji is his friend too after all, so he certainly should have had a reaction. She sighs. ]
...You do...really.
Sorry...I guess. You know, for the mix-up.
[ This is only a little awkward. : |;; ]
My name's Ran.

[He smiles and bows a little, holding an empty hand out between them, only for a small flower to suddenly appear in his fingers; he offers the flower to her.]
In any case, it's nice to meet you, Ran. [... yeah, he really can't resist. Sorry.]
