[Dictated]

[deductiongeek]

 ...Those idiots.  

They can be so undependable sometimes.

[He sighs.]

If anyone's curious, Hattori Heiji and Kuroba Kaito have left the castle.

[And yes, that means Conan is once again alone.]

Dictated forever

[huffythedragon]

[Bro :<]

I'm sorry. Are you gonna be okay?

Dictated forever

[deductiongeek]

There is no need to worry about me. It's just as well they've returned home.

[huffythedragon]

But they're your friends. It's always hard to have friends leave you.

[deductiongeek]

Hattori is my friend. That other guy isn't. And they're both annoying.

[huffythedragon]

...But you'll still miss Hattori, right?

[deductiongeek]

Not at all.

[huffythedragon]

...But he's your friend.

[deductiongeek]

And he has many things to do at home. I have to rely on him to take care of things there.

[huffythedragon]

But you'll still not have him around right now, will you? So you can still miss him.

Paradisa can be such a lonely world sometimes...can't it?

dictated

[deductiongeek]

Loneliness is just part of life. Paradisa isn't much worse than anywhere else.

[jimfromit]

True.

Some people treat loneliness like a song...a long whiney song that gets boring after the first verse.

I give you credit for not being one of those people at least.

[deductiongeek]

I don't see why everyone is so surprised. Its important for a detective to remain in control of such emotions.

At least thats what Shinichi-niichan always said!

[jimfromit]

Shinichi-niichan?...is that your mentor?

[deductiongeek]

He's my distant relative. I've learned a few things from him.,

[It was always so strange talking about himself in this way.]

[jimfromit]

Whoever he is, he has the right idea.

Emotion is merely a weakness to be exploited by your enemies.

[deductiongeek]

No, that isn't right. Emotion isn't a weakness. But it must be controlled.

[wizard_redfive]

Friends from back home?

Re: Dictated

[deductiongeek]

Heiji-niichan was. Not that other guy. But they were both from my world.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

Oh. [Not sure if she's more empathetic about his loss or jealous that he had people from home.]

I'm sorry they left.

Re: Dictated

[deductiongeek]

They'll be fine.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

I wasn't worried about them.

[After all, Dairine didn't know them personally, nor was she aware of how dangerous Conan's world is. No... The person she was worried for was the one stuck alone.]

Re: Dictated

[deductiongeek]

What are you worried about, then? [As always, Conan was bad about considering himself.]

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

I'll give you three guesses.

[Come on Conan. Use that super-smart brain of yours.]

Dictated

[deductiongeek]

[Dairine had just found one of Conan's glaring mental faults. He was incapable of understanding that he was someone to worry about.]

Is this really the time for guessing games?
