[This is how we murder Saguru's attempts at dignity again.]
[Oh damnit damnit damnit damnit.]
[He's getting BETTER at dealing with the jungle, but it doesn't mean he's nearly as good at it as the person he's trying to find - ]
[Because let's face it, the idea of leaving a distinctly not in his right normal mind Conan alone wandering around in the jungle, with everything that's out to get one or both of them at this point, does not seem like something Saguru just wants to leave go.]
[He's doing the best at tracking that he can - Conan's footprints are, at least, easily identifiable when they can be found - but he hasn't had near enough time to get THAT good at it out here, and frankly, is once again missing Watson and the "follow" trick he'd taught her; being able to just look for where the bird was following/kiting to tell where Conan was would be SO much easier.]
[He's also periodically checking his pocketwatch and trying not to think about how much could happen in the time that's passed since he last saw Conan. :| ]
[And quite possibly is starting to hit areas of the jungle he's actually never seen before!]
[Why does the universe hate him.]

[He was totally distracted by you seemingly getting into it!]
[A-and it kind of takes a minute for his mind to process What Just Happened.]
....kinky.
no subject
Actually not what I was going for. You are not in your right mind now, and while I'm sure you won't believe me about that for now, I'm not sure what else to do here; I can't have you wandering around like this and getting spotted by the wrong people, which is the entire reason we're in here, but I am not going to just leave you doing something you're going to regret later.
[Already steeling himself for the inevitable fallout of stalker-puppy-kicking.]
no subject
Not in my right mind...? How can you say something like that?!
[And he's giving you a kicked puppy look now.]
no subject
You were ready to throttle me last night, and you have Ran, who you've been perfectly devoted to. Maybe I would believe this if something had happened between you and her, and if you weren't more hostile to me than anything, but suddenly latching onto me like this reeks of some kind of outside meddling, and I don't know if it's another of this place's games, or the actions of someone else here, but we know there's forces at work that can meddle in people's heads and change their behavior, which is a far more likely explanation for this than you suddenly waking up one morning, forgetting Ran, and deciding to throw yourself at me.
Even though I know you're not going to believe a word of that right now.
I'm not going to let you get hurt like this, or run afoul of the wrong people, but I'm not going to take advantage of you, or be taken advantage of.
no subject
Ran....? [And there's....a deep look of confusion on his face. Like he's trying to connect something, but for some reason, he's not able too.] What about...Ran?
no subject
I know it's likely not coming through very well with whatever's going on, but you have her, not me, and one of the reasons I am going to make sure you stay put here until this lessens is so that she doesn't get hurt by this.
no subject
[Well, when something is trying to convince him he's in love with someone else...]
But...it was you ever since I saw you....nggh.... [Kind of wincing. At least he can join you in headache land.]
no subject
Are you going to try to leave or do anything silly like that?
no subject
....
Why would I want to leave you?
no subject
We should probably at least have a seat; we might be here a while.
[And he's going to very cautiously let go and kind of ...sink to sitting with his back to the wall.]
[Oh hai, realization of how mentally and emotionally exhausting the last few days have been. Why is this place good at doing that?]
no subject
.... [Harder to try and molest you with handcuffs.]
[But will sit VERY CLOSE beside you. Really, he's only, like, an inch from being in your lap.]
This is where I have to wonder if Shinichi ever learned how to slip handcuffs.
I wonder if anyone else's having issues with this... [He doesn't exactly expect an answer, more just thinking out loud.]
I think he could pick them, but he's...not thinking straight, so yeah.
[And he's VERY cuddly, head even rested on your shoulder~]
Issues with what?
no subject
You really are utterly gone on this, aren't you?
[...siiiiiigh.] [The sad part is, this is probably going to be one of his few moments of peace for a while.]
