Saguru wasn’t entirely sure what he was doing here, other than the fact that it wasn’t a school night. And, well, Kid. Specifically a Kid Heist Notice.
Which wasn’t for another three days. A bit larger of a lead time than normal, but Kid hadn’t made an appearance in several weeks, most likely due to it being the end of the school season and this being the first time Kid had a break to do so.
But still, Saguru usually arrived later in the process, not for the initial heist note meeting. His presence was mostly superfluous at them, especially given the straight forward nature of the current note and that Kid wouldn’t be there.
“Alright, men!” Nakamori-keibu bellowed and Saguru tried to flinch at the volume. Truely, did everything have time be at high decibel? “Kid has sent us a notice for three days from now at 1800-“
“I really wish he didn’t.” The owner of the large inherited topaz flinched.
Normally gem owners tended to fall into two categories, either having something to hide --usually a fake heist notice-- or attempting to challenge the Kid’s skills. The current target went in a different direction… nervous fussing. “It’s my daughter’s graduation and I wanted to be there.”
“Oh snap.” A familiar voice said from Saguru’s left and he jumped slightly. “Forgot about graduation. Would you like to reschedule?”
The Kid’s voice came from the officer standing next to Saguru. One who was twice Saguru’s age and whom he’d sworn had gotten checked for being the Kid.
“Oh would you?” The mousy gem owner looked relieved.
Kid stepped forward, the Task Force uniform vanishing with a small poof of smoke, to be replaced by the Kaitou Kid’s familiar white suit, top hat, and cape. “Certainly. When would be a good date for you?”
Kid hopped up on the desk, lightly crouching on it as the gem owner pulled out a paper planner, running his fingers across the pages. “How’s the 19th?”
Kid pulled out a phone, checking his calendar as Nakamori made an irate sound. “I’m booked.” Kid reported. “Can do the 17th or 20th though.”
“I’m out of town the 20th-“
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” Nakamori bellowed, his face a violent angry red. Kid clicked his finger and held up a finger in the inspector’s direction, the thief’s gaze on his phone as if Nakamori was the one being unconscionably rude.
“-I have work most of the 17th.” The gem owner continued. “But the evening is free.”
Kid made a thoughtful sound. “I supposed that would give me enough time-“
“You could check it now.” Saguru suggested. “Since you’re currently both free.”
Both Kid and the gem owner looked up at Saguru with identical looks of polite confusion. Saguru resisted the urge to roll his eyes. “Not everything needs to be a magic show.”
Kid gasped in outrage, one gloved hand pressed against his chest, clearly offended.
“He’s got a point.” The gem owner gestured to the large stone on his desk. “Help yourself.”
Kid nodded, hopping off the desk, picking up the gem and walking over to the window and holding it up to the moonlight. When nothing happened, he turned back and set the gem back on the desk, offering the owner his gloved hand. “Thank you very much, it was a pleasure doing business with you.”
The gem owner shook his hand. “Likewise.”
Kid turned to the officers and gave them a polite tilt of his hat. “Gentlemen.” He said, then walked out the door.
Saguru pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed heavily as no one moved.
“-GET HIM!!” Nakamori belatedly bellowed, pointing to the door the thief had just walked out of. That seemed to startle the Task Force and they scrambled to take off running, several getting stuck in the doorway and preventing the others from escaping.
“Well.” Said the gem owner, looking quite chuffed. “That was exciting.”
Saguru rubbed his face with a hand, torn between exasperation and amusement, remembering once again why he attended as many Kid heists as possible. He’d been to crime scenes for years and seriously.
Stuff like this only happened with the Kaitou Kid.

One of my favorite takes on whatever we’re calling this latest DC nonsense lmfaooooo
I would love to imagine this dialogue with Supergirl but Kara would never be friends with someone who didn’t go down on women. So fingers crossed for Tyler Hoechlin to recreate this scene whenever they give him a Batman to act with 🤞🏻. I could totally see Bitsie playing along with this bit.
i don’t hate hohenheim. i think he was stuck between a really hard rock and a hard place, and the only thing that i would comment is.................................. why didn’t you visit your kids at least once (1)
everything in this scene is just so iconic this show was insane they rlly just took three of the cuntiest rising stars and threw them into a hedonistic codependent fun not polycule and then proceeded to put them in the worst show ever anyway the great seducer the best kdrama actually they carried
if joy’s character had been in any other drama, i would have LOVED her character a lot. i actually still do like her scenes together with sihyun. joy just isn’t as good of an actor as the rest of the main cast and it shows and her character looks weaker and less interesting because of it.
before anyone says it, i’m not saying that joy is a bad actor. i’ve only seen her in tempted, so i honestly don’t know, but compared to the others... yeah, she’s definitely not as good. which makes sense! joy is an idol first! and the others are childhood actors i’m pretty sure!
i honestly don’t really get sooji saying that sihyun wasn’t interested in taehee bc like... isn’t the whole point of this that taehee falls in love with sihyun you should be saying that sihyun is gassing her up
me every time: why are these kids’ lives so entangled with their parents’... how is it that sihyun’s father dated the mothers of BOTH of sihyun’s love interests like HELLO
“Are you going to be okay with having the prettiest little sister in the world?” “Have you given up on being the prettiest wife in the world?” AGAIN. HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO SEE THESE SCENES AND NOT FUCKING SHIP THEM
