Indie RP blog for Richard Moore/Kogoro Mouri. Dub based by default. Dash Only. Low Activity.

[moore--or--less]

Heyo! Indie RP blog for Richard Moore/Kogoro Mouri from Detective Conan/Case Closed! Will keep this short and sweet.

Bio here!

Other info and rules here!

Content warning: Guns, smoking, alcohol, descriptions of violence (like describing a murder scene), mentions of suicide (AKA what he thinks all murders are), themes of depression, and child abuse. (He loves to punch Conan on the head, sadly.)

Will be dash only and pretty low activity.

Far too many years of RPing experience on Tumblr. Mostly dipping my toe back in (with my favorite disaster) to see if I have the time for it again, eheh.

Like/Reblog if you’re interested in interacting!

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. “Gah! What, were you spying on me!? Where even were you, you’re late for dinner!”

The brat didn’t look like he’d almost died or gotten himself beat up, so Richard wasn’t that concerned anymore. Just annoyed. He really ought to enforce that curfew better.

’ nope , i heard you were talking about me ! I got into a talk with my brother who was working on a case in america . the case is pretty big . hey is it true you’re going to give me allowance ? ’ conan chirps , yes he did spy on you slightly, kogoro . gently tugging his coat, he asks . ’ what’s for dinner ? is it pork cutlet? ’

"I think Ran's making curry-- wait, brother!?" Oh he's not letting that slide, not with the little brat babbling to try and drown out that tidbit of information. The runt never talked about his family, and for good reason, they seemed like real pieces of shit. (And that says something coming from Kogoro.) "Since when do you have a br-- Oh, wait. You mean your BFF Shinichi, don't you? Course he'd be working a case in America. God forbid he actually call and tell us about what the hell he's doing."

“Where the hell did Conan run off to? It’s almost curfew, if I have to go searching all of Beika looking for him, it’s coming out of his allowance!” Wait, he doesn’t give Conan one of those. “… I’ll start giving him an allowance, just to take it away!”

[treasurechcst-deactivated202309]

’ sorry , did you talk about me ?’ conan was back from his usual murder mystery trips. a laugh escapes from his lips ’ i didn’t know you were concerned about me old timer ! i’m telling shinichi-nii kun you were looking for me ! ’

... He wasn't sure if he should be scared, or pity the poor guy, or... some secret third thing. "Aw come on, don't say that, Inspector..." He chuckled awkwardly. "If you're not the one inventing new thief-catching stuff, who will? ... Uh, this is related to that third-thief guy, right?" Because this would be awkward if Zenigata was saying all this because he'd tried to retire from the force and take up ballet or something. (Though speaking as a former cop, and given what he did know about the inspector, that would probably also be part of some elaborate Lupin-catching plot.)

"Eep!" Okay, who snitched!? No, a more pressing question right now-- what does he need to say to keep his back from getting broken by a karate chop?

“Who says I’m trying to set Shinichi up with someone?! I don’t care who that brat is dating, as long as it isn’t you! Nope, not one bit! The only matchmaking I’m interested in is making sure you find a good guy that won’t ditch you for cases every other day! You know, like a nice rich doctor or something!” Hey, technically that was a mix of truth and lies, that should cover his bases, right? 

... Wait a minute-- “O-oi, back up! You met Kai-- I mean, some guy at the train station!? Did he flirt with you!?” No! Bad! Unacceptable!

[moore--or--less]

bravewilled·:

’ okay , one he did not flirt with me but he offered to hang out with me because i was upset about shinichi ditching me again . ’ ran knows how these karate chops works so , since she’s very annoyed at her dad for the silly plan , she aims to punch towards the stomach . ’ shinichi returned from america , now you’re just going to set him up with a KID look alike ? are you mad ? ’ she yells at him , releasing her anger through punches is her only outlet .

’ yeah , i met kaito but he acts like he has a celebrity crush on my best friend . ’ oh man , she thinks he needs better taste in men actually . whatever her dad is planning , she doesn’t like it . the man’s comment ticked ran off as she started to yell at him . ’ ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? what’s next ? an arranged marriage of some random creep ?’ she knows every weak or sensitive spot every time she would punch her dad so she doesn’t hesitate to punch him again for it .

’ i don’t believe you , we talked about shinichi briefly . ’ ran remarks , as a flurry of punches continues or maybe she might kick him with her leg . ’ how does he know everything he likes ? i’m the only one who knows he has a collection of detective novels ! you’ve been gossiping about him don’t you ? don’t tell me you filled his head that shinichi is into guys , i’m sure he’s both interested in both genders ! i know him better than you ! ’

That sounded like a classic guy-move to him, offering to hang out with a lady in her time of need, when another guy had ditched her! If Kaito didn’t have eyes for Shinichi, he’d be more suspicious. Well, and also if he wasn’t being actively punched right now.

“YEEK! HEY, I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING!” Kogoro leaped out of the way of the first punch but got nailed by the second, stumbling backwards with tears in his eyes. He really did raise a hellspawn. Can he blame Eri’s genes for that? Yeah, probably-- he couldn’t really think on it much while he was scrambling around the house, struggling to avoid a flurry of punches and kicks. “Are you serious!? Everyone knows that detective brat loves detective books, he talks non-stop about Sherlock Holmes! Kaito could've heard that from anyone, not just me-- W-wait, Shinichi really is into guys!?”

That wasn’t important at all, but it did make his hopes of Kaito being able to woo Shinichi away from Ran a lot more plausible than he initially expected. A kick cut off that train of thought and sent Kogoro rolling across the floor in a series of undignified noises. “Oww! Raaaan! Have mercy on your poor old father! Breaking all my bones isn’t going to keep Kaito and Shinichi from dating! O-or not dating! Or whatever!”

@moore–or–less​ started talking…

Profiles were established under pretenses that the truth was not easily discovered. Putting in an application for a high-class establishment would’ve left a paper trail that, even with a long reputation of escaping consequences, still was bad practice.

 But under-dressing for the occasion was probably the largest risk he’d taken for that night. The dusty, smoke-ridden hat was  out of place in an otherwise pristine setting, save for the  blistering hot fire before him-

And the sole, lonely occupant placed squarely in front of him. It’d been several minutes of mindless knife tricks before noting belatedly that the blustering man who had not yet ordered was not going to be surrounded by notable company, and in fact, the last several minutes of talking was aimed at him, Jigen, specifically. If he hadn’t made plans to ditch the job after, this customer could cost the hibachi place some reputation by how important he made himself sound.

“…” With the spatula,  he urges the menu into the man’s line of sight,neatly into his lap.

“ Math’s off in your story. Police service semi-automatic pistols only carry 12 rounds… sure the thirteenth guy didn’t pretend to be starin’ at the pearly gates from where he was laying on the third floor?”

Richard’s acts of charity so rarely went appreciated. Over the past year his tiny, comfy nest of him and his daughter had erupted with annoying baby chicks bawling with their mouths open for worms. And worm-money added up quick, even for a world-famous private detective! But he’d agreed, just this once, to treat Rachel, Conan, and all his little school friends out to a Hibachi place, meeting them here after school. The kinds of places that cooked the meal in front of you and charged you double for the privilege-- Damn baby birds thinking he was made of money!

That wasn’t really why he was pissed, though. He was pissed because they were all late.

He was passing the time by telling stories to the waitress, and then the chef once she left, who frankly looked bored out of his mind, not that Richard cared. Not until the guy interrupted at least. “Eh? Uhhh...” Richard counted on his fingers, and mentally catalogued each shot. Shoot, he was right! "W-well maybe a stray shot hit him in all the commotion! Or one of my shots hit two of them, that’s gotta be it! I’m lucky like that! Seriously, where the hell are those brats,” Richard growled under his breath, checking his phone. No messages yet. He sent his beloved daughter a text that if she didn’t get her rump over here in five minutes he was chowing down without them.

Richard slid the menu closer before realizing, “Hey, how do you know a thing like that anyway? Were you a cop before this?” That was kind of interesting. Another former cop! Richard leaned down in an attempt to get a better look at the guy’s face under the hat, for all the good that did. “I think I would remember a face like yours stalkin’ around the Tokyo Metropolitan Police. Out-of-towner?”

The irony that he didn’t remember the face from the wanted posters.

@moore--or--less || Kogoro requested a plotted starter with Ran .

' excuse me , but what the hell dad ? SINCE WHEN ARE YOU PLAYING MATCHMAKER ? ' seeing kogoro being so openly welcoming at the idea of shinichi , her childhood friend being set up with someone else is uncalled for . what will shinichi say if HE FINDS OUT ? knowing her temper , she can be scary & her best friend knows that . she's probably going to give him a piece of her mind .

there's no way that kaito & KID are the same person ! all she thinks of was revenge for that pervert trying to kiss her . there's no way she's letting shinichi get together with him after seeing how KID treats other girls sometimes . it is laughable , ran knows his plan will fail if he plays matchmaker .

' is it the guy that i met at the train station ? ' ran demands , she remembers him too well . they look a bit eerily similar to shinichi . she cracks her knuckles in a threatening manner & stopped him from leaving but this encounter changed her mind . ' can you tell me why you're trying to set shinichi up with someone i recently met ? '

"Humph! I'm still the top detective, and I'm not upset, so you're wrong on all counts! ... Except being a 10, that part's true." Not that he wants to hear it from Shinichi of all people.
