Tantei Gakuen Q Drabbles 41-45
Title: Warmth
Prompt: 61 Winter
Kyuu woke up one morning, freezing on one side and comfortably warm on the other. Absently he snuggled into the warmth which tried to scoot away from him.
“Um, Kyuu? You fell out of bed again,” he heard the warm spot mutter as it moved and disappeared. Kyuu moved into the warm spot it left behind.
Abruptly, the blanket disappeared. “Ack!” Kyuu said, sitting straight up. He was on Ryuu’s futon and Ryuu stood to the side, holding the blanket. Kyuu laughed nervously.
Ryuu shook his head. “I know we are close friends but we aren’t that close,” he said

Title: Test
Prompt: 12 Grey
The sky turned an unpleasantly grey as storm clouds began to roll in. Kyuu watched them a few minutes more before he sent a message to Kinta telling him that they would need to run one of their alternate plans for the test.
Despite the change in weather, Kyuu was feeling very excited. This year, they were allowed to assist with the testing of candidates for the school. Kyuu was not surprised the amount of planning that went into the test. But he had found it fun, in a way. And there were some clear stars of the incoming group.

Title: Doggedly
Prompt: 71 Broken
Megu gingerly felt around her wrist with her other hand and had to bite down a cry of pain. ‘Broken,’ she thought, ‘Definitely broken.’
A noise from down the hill caught her attention. Doggedly, she stood up from where she had tripped and began to work her way slowly down the hill. She would never forgive herself if she did not see where the suspect was going. ‘It’s not like I can catch him with a broken wrist unless I get lucky.’ She swallowed the pain and remembered that a detective would never give up. She could not give up.

Title: Thoughtfulness
Prompt: 58 Dinner
Kyuu’s mother sat on in front of the TV. But she was not watching it. She was listening to her boys move around in the kitchen. They had kicked her out and told her to rest because they were going to make dinner.
She knew Kyuu could make simple dishes. She had drilled that much into his head. But she was not sure how good of a cook Ryuu was. ‘I guess I am going to find out,’ she thought, listening to some dishes clank together and Kyuu’s surprised utterances.
To her delight, pleasant smells began to fill the room.

Title: Danger
Prompt: 35 Sixth Sense
Kinta shivered as a chill ran down his spine. It was actually more than a chill. It was more like a dread warning. Carefully, he sent the students back with what actually was a legitimate excuse.
He had learned that his feelings were usually based on clues his mind would subconsciously pick up. If he thought hard enough about what his subconscious caught, he could actively put together those clues and act on them.
What he was getting now, he did not like.
He sent a quick message to his old classmates. There was no time to wait for backup.
