010 - Shin'ichi

...Damn, this hurts, but it's more confusing than anything else.  I can walk fine, but still.

Someone tripped me just now by the hotel.  This person tied a piece of twine to a storefront, hid the length of it in the dirt, and waited on the other side for me to pass.  Then, they giggled when I fell and busted the same ankle as before.  They didn't

Oh, no! Do you want me to go and find a medic for you?

But why would Ran do something like that? She's very sensible and nice.

[shinjitsu_eyes]

A couple of aspirin and some ice would do the trick. If a medic has that, it would be great.

You're right. That's what I'm trying to figure out. Maybe she has a good explanation. It's too early to jump to conclusions . . . .

[zaibachs_best]

Oh, I'm sure she did. Maybe you should ask her.

I'll go find one right away!

[jesus_bnr]

That is funny.

[shinjitsu_eyes]

How so?

[jesus_bnr]

Hmm?

[shinjitsu_eyes]

You just said that prank was funny. How in the hell is it?

[mouri_ran_chan]

What on earth are you talking about? Did you hit your head, too? Those kinds of pranks are silly and childish! There's no way I'd do that!

Anyway, whether or not you can walk with your ankle, we need to elevate it. I can go ask Sakura-chan for the aspirin, and Masami-san has ice.

That's what makes no sense! It was you, Ran, there's no denying it! That face was yours, I heard you laugh, and no one else has those shoes. A couple strands of your hair were stuck to the store wall. Just admit it.

Good, I'll forgive you. Now tell me what possessed you to pull that stupid trick.

[mouri_ran_chan]

Exactly! So why on earth do you think I did--what?! Strands of my hair? This isn't a case, Sherlock, so don't go analyzing hair that isn't mine!

No, I don't want you to forgive me. You tripped yourself! I want you to take that back!

Better yet, stop telling everyone stories. You've got a sore ankle, right? Let's just go back to the cafe and take care of it.

[shinjitsu_eyes]

...

Sheesh, I can't believe you don't remember.

[pianoman_soul]

Maybe she thought the look on your face when you tripped was funny?

[shinjitsu_eyes]

Why in the hell would that be funny?

Normally, she might laugh if I tripped on my own, but she wouldn't trip me. That's why this makes no sense.
