[Dictated]

[Now here is a familiar voice, though irritated and a little confused.  Isn't he a great actor?]

Oi.  Can anyone tell me just what is going on here?  Why are there all these posts on the journals about me being kidnapped?

....And when did Kaitou Kid arrive in the castle?

[ooc: Loss End.  Shinichi is back to being Conan.  And is about to lie about everything ever.]

Where were you?

[modernholmes]

....Insolitus. I got lost.

[huffythedragon]

...

I don't buy it.

[modernholmes]

Why not?

[huffythedragon]

Because you're too smart to get lost in there.

[modernholmes]

[This was a problem he hadn't anticipated.]

...Thanks?

[huffythedragon]

You're welcome. So where were you, really?

[modernholmes]

I can't tell you that.

[huffythedragon]

Why? We were all really worried about you.

[modernholmes]

There are good reasons.

[He frowns guiltily.]

I'm sorry, but its safer if no one knows. But I was in no danger, so there is no need to worry.

[huffythedragon]

Which are?

But you could have been. What if something happened while you were gone? I mean, all sorts of crazy things happen here.

[modernholmes]

Reasons that I can't tell you.

Nothing did. And I am used to dealing to dangerous situations. There is nothing to worry about.

[huffythedragon]

...That's kind of a cop-out.

What about the first gens? Could you deal with them?

[modernholmes]

I could try.

[huffythedragon]

But what if you fail?

[modernholmes]

That's out of the question.

[huffythedragon]

No, it's really not.

[modernholmes]

I won't die until I accomplish certain things.

[huffythedragon]

...Way to be vague, bro.

[modernholmes]

It isn't something I want to talk about.

[huffythedragon]

[Sigh] I guess I can't force you. If you're gonna be mysterious abut it.
