Fluff with a tad bit of angst...

Third person POV:

        Poe and Ranpo always enjoyed watching mystery movies together. So when movies came out in theaters, they'd always go... and always ended up getting kicked out because Ranpo would always shout out who is the culprit was in the first five minutes of the movie. 

     Tonight was different though, yes it was movie night but Poe had just recovered from a cold and it would be best to stay in. They snuggled up together on the couch with a blanket draped over them. Karl was being squeezed by Ranpo. Sweets were covering the coffee table in front of them. It was perfect for them, more so for Ranpo, but still perfect.

"We haven't done a movie night in our apartment for a while now, huh Edgar?" Ranpo started, clinging onto Poe.

"Y-yeah, I guess..." Poe responded, obviously flustered.

Ranpo's face changed into a preplexed one as he noticed his boyfriends stuttering was back. "Poe you don't need to be shy with me!" the smaller said whining.

"Sorry Ranpo.."

"It's okay!" Ranpo accepted his not so needed apology and squeezed Poe, most likely crushing Karl in the process.

"Ranpo... I think you're crushing Karl..."

"Oopsies!" Ranpo exclaimed letting go. "Start the movie!"

"What movie are we w-watching?"

"You'll see..." the shorter responded while sticking a lime flavored lollipop into his mouth.

——————————

Halfway through the movie Ranpo fell asleep waiting for it to end. What woke him up was the tallers ringtone. Someone was calling Poe at 10:47pm.

"Huh?" Ranpo said while moving back into sitting position and rubbing his eyes.

(A/N: Can't you just imagine Ranpo waking up from sleeping on Poe 🥹)

"S-sorry for waking you Ranpo-san... the Guild groupchat is calling. Do you want me to answer or not?"

"Drop the san, i'm not your superior, you can answer as long as you take it here. Your warm..." Ranpo said groggily from his sudden awakening.

"Okay..." Poe responded with a soft smile as he watched the detective slowly fall back asleep.

Poe picked up the call only to be met with yelling.

Mark  - "THAT'S SO UNFAIR, ITS SO MUCH BETTER IN YOKOHAMA THAN AMERICA!"

Louisa - "I-I'm sorry but these are the president's orders. Believe me when I say Francis and I wish to stay ourselves."

Lovecraft - "I don't mind either way but someone clarify to Edgar what's... happening."

Steinbeck - "How'd you know he joined? Anyways since Ms. Mitchell is all better the president wants us back in America."

Poe - "W-what, I can't just leave... me and..."

Mark - "This is stupid! Plus we've lost half our members anyways. Lucy's with the ADA café, only god knows where Hawthorne ran off to, and Herman is probably dead!"

Poe - "I agree with Twain."

Louisa - "Only for a month... one month and we can be back.

Mark - That's it.

*Mark Twain has left*

Poe - ...Alright, this sounds mandatory.
