[Kaito's been a little scarce these past few days. With his dad having suddenly appeared in town, he's been busy spending as much time with him as possible. After all, the time he had with the older man at home had been cut drastically short. Those who had run into Kaito over the past week probably noticed that he was a bit quieter, yet more

Kind of.

[kaitopants]

What's that mean?

[hide_break_play]

I know the ghost princess in town. She was dead when I met her.

[kaitopants]

Dead in her world?

[artwithknives]

Still being new, I'm exempt from that question, right?

[kaitopants]

Sure. If you haven't come across a dead person yet.

[artwithknives]

I'd hope I haven't come across a dead person...

[kaitopants]

They are surprisingly lively for dead people!

[badend_replay]

mii. I... have not met anyone like that, but I know of people who have, Big Brother.

Is the man who wanted to talk to you the 'dead' person you're talking about?

[kaitopants]

Eh? You talked to him too?

[badend_replay]

Yes nano desu. He mentioned you so I talked to him...

[kaitopants]

He's my dad.

[divine_striker]

I haven't met anyone like that... but it sounds like you have.

Are you handling it okay? I imagine that it must be quite the shock...

[kaitopants]

... it's weird. It's like I've been given a second chance.

[divine_striker]

I'm sure that must be nice. Most people don't get a second chance with someone they've lost...

I wish you the best.

[kaitopants]

... yeah.

Thanks. Er, 'm Kaito Kuroba, by the way!

[heartofheaven]

...I have.

[kaitopants]

You too?

[heartofheaven]

Yeah. Two people, actually.

[kaitopants]

I guess it happens more than I thought it did.
