"Have you seen him around?" Ranpo poked the paper with a picture of Karl on it, groaning when the person shook their head.
Poe was sitting hunched over on a bench, face buried in his hands.
Ranpo walked over to him, sitting down next to him and patting him on the back. "Hey, Ed, I'm sure we'll find Karl, okay?"
"I should've kept an eye on him.." Poe mumbled to himself, grabbing a tuft of his hair in his hand.
Ranpo just wrapped an arm around him, whistling a little.
Safe to say, he did not predict Karl suddenly scurrying out from under the bench. What a professional hider.
"Dostoy!" Nikolai grinned. "Look at this!!"
Fyodor looked over, pausing. "...What is that."
"Porcupine!" Nikolai twirled around a little, holding it up higher.
"Where'd you get the porcupine." Fyodor slowly got up.
"The neighbors."
"This," Nathaniel gestured to the crash car. "Is the least of our worries. That's what you just said to me."
"Mhm!" Nikolai nodded, grinning.
"So what's the primary worry?" Nathaniel huffed at the jester, crossing his arms.
"The cops."
"The cops?" He raised an eyebrow at the response.
Nikolai snickered. "Yeah! That car's stolen, Nathan."
"Can we keep it?" Ivan looked at Shibusawa with big eyes, similar to that of a puppy, you'd think. "Please? Pretty please?"
Ivan, had just returned home from work. He worked at an animal shelter, so it wasn't uncommon for him to ask Shibusawa if they could get a pet from it.
However, he did not expect Ivan to bring a pet home, specifically a little corgi who's tail was wagging so fast half of its body was practically wagging alongside it.
Shibusawa stared at the pup, then at Ivan, then at the pup. He sighed. "What's its name, Ivan?"
"Oh!! Oh I'm so glad you asked, its name is Vera and-"
Fine, they could have a new family member. Just this once.
"Shall we spar?" Fukuzawa unsheathed his sword, raising an eyebrow.
Ranpo bit a piece of pocky in half, offering some extra to Gin who was sitting next to him, and they took it. They pulled their mask down slightly to nibble at it, before focusing back on the two who were fighting.
Hirotsu slowly picked up the sword Fukuzawa had laid infront of him, getting into position.
When Ranpo bit into the other half of the pocky stick, their swords clashed.
HI ships and sentences: Bramcraft with the sentence "Yes I, too, can love", and Fukurotsu with "You're terrible, I can't believe you"
"Yes I, too, can love." Bram nodded a little, tilting his head. "Why do you ask that?"
"Well, Bra-chan! I haven't heard you discuss it at all! I wanted to know!!" Aya crossed her arms, huffing. She had been asking all kinds of questions to Bram about customs in modern times, customs in old times, it was a lot of questions. She was a curious child, however.
A familiar creature leaned against Bram as the three walked, yawning. "I want to go back to bed."
Bram looked at Lovecraft, kissing his forehead. "I do too."
"You're terrible, I can't believe you!" Ranpo shouted, slamming the door shut.
Fukuzawa stared, loudly sighing before looking at Hirotsu, leaning against one of his hands. "Well, what'd you do now?"
"Told him we could not get a refill on one of his snacks." Hirotsu looked back at him.
Ranpo would probably come wandering back in, he knew this plan didn't work, but Fukuzawa supposed he liked being dramatic like that.
The door slowly creaked open, and the two looked over.
"Actually, I was wondering if-"
11. with characters i want to write more in the future
one of my current wips!!
Haruno’s quiet for a moment, then smiles, “Maybe we could handle it ourselves?”
“Wh- really?” Naomi blinks, pulling her phone away.
“Of course we could!” Teruko butts in, grinning, “I'm here.”
“We could solve it even without a Hunting Dog.” Haruno crosses her arms. Teruko raises an eyebrow in disbelief, and then laughs.
15. from an old piece that i like

“How bad is this month’s electricity bill, Kunikida? Your brow’s all furrowed,” Yosano glanced out of the medical area, leaning against the doorway.
“Not worse than Fukuzawa’s past relationships,” Kunikida answered, Fukuzawa just giving a disappointed sigh from where he was looking over a report for Tanizaki. Ranpo snickered unhelpfully.
4 aka if loving you is a competition then baby i'm a dark horse if it hasn’t been asked already
THIS ONEE it's my silly fukurotsu fic i havent worked on in a while. but uhmm have a snippet. old man loneliness.
Certain things had to remain in secrecy. Mori would have been displeased if he found out one of his subordinates was dating his former love, the Black Lizards would have been baffled, not to mention that Fukuzawa supposed the public reception would be.. Poor.
So, they kept their interactions in person brief, and kept all else to methods that people couldn’t see. It did happen to result in some yearning, Fukuzawa finding his bed was all too empty at night. His blankets kept him warm, but the ache for someone to wrap his arms around never left.
