Edogawa Conan: 056: [In Person]

[always1truth]

[The small child is, predictably, in the library pulling a few books out- they look like they've been setting on the shelf for years, the pages have even become stiff and the print is a bit faded- he lets the book fall to the floor as he reaches for another-not that surprised to see it's in similar the shape, only the spine on this one is starting

[[If there's one thing this man knows is important it's research. There's no better place to do this than a library and as soon as he realizes there is one, he had every inclination to go there. If what he's been reading and listening to on the system is anything to be corrected by, they were in an alternate reality.

How droll.

However, upon entering and seeing a young lad abusing books, this sort of gets his hackles up. Children these days had no morals for the most sacred things so says the psychopath murderer.]]

Those are as precious as newborns, hadn't your Mommy told you, young man?

[always1truth]

Huh?

[well, the noise had certainly attracted some attention, at least. He just blinks innocently as though he has no idea what the man's talking about.]

[ofuckitskimblee]

[[Kimblee sighs and picks up the books that he so carelessly tossed to the floor, thumbing over the broken spine. His sigh again happens and he sets them onto the table with reverence.]]

Books.
They're as precious as newborns, you shouldn't abuse them.

[always1truth]

Oh... sorry... [he looks sheepish as he bows his head]

And here's your Bel LOL

[knifeybastard]

[[Bel's much more apt after that sort of meeting he'd had, to just play it a bit safe and scout the area for Gokudera. If anything he could beat his head into the cement of the floor, revel a bit, then call it a day and take the fake storm ring too.

Instead, he finds himself wandering the halls, his eyes tracking over the walls to try and familiarize himself. He smirks at passers by and the like until making it to this library. How interesting, there's so many rooms in this place. He pushes the door open with his hand and takes a look around.

Small child reading books boredly? This place must be a trap for otherwise bored people. He takes slow steps forward, having left a line on the door that he can easily pull free or tighten with the right twist of his wrist.

He's keeping his distance for the moment, instead flicking through some of the books on the shelves.]]

\o/

[always1truth]

[Conan's eyes immediately move to the intruder-though only a train professional could even hope to catch him-his movement's aren't any different then before and the way he's turning pages suggests he's still reading-even if he's not.]

[This guy had touched the door-a different part than the knob and that was just a little suspicious. After reaching a point he could just close the book he gets up and move back to the shelf with books scattered on the floor around- he climbs up to the top and start pulling books off again, checking the pages as he'd done before and tossing them carelessly over his shoulder when they weren't interesting-or so it looks.]

[He's actually checking to see if the books catch on anything.]

[knifeybastard]

[[Bel's not much paying attention, he's confident it doesn't really matter even if someone's watching him. He'll simply have to twist their neck backward. His face moves to a long smile across his lips while he looks through some of the reading material, putting a few under his arm before taking a glance to the side at this bratty child.

It's a novel idea, to pull string tight- but he's learned his lesson, many times before he learned well enough.]]

Ushishishi~♫ what a co-incidence you throw them in the track of how I walked in. I was your age once.

[always1truth]

[Conan hops off the book case and lands on his feet-having to stop himself from pitching forward by holding his hand in front before standing up and offering a concerned little kid look-his eyes taking in the guy's appearance quickly and--is that a tiara?]

Ah! Sorry! I thought you were someone else!
