Ranpo: *slumps over his desk in defeat*

Kunikida: You alright, Ranpo?

Ranpo: *muffled voice* No.

Kunikida: What's wrong?

Ranpo: Turns out I'm not as smart as I pride myself on being...

Kunikida: I'm a little lost here. Why do you say that?

Ranpo: Because I like someone and I have no idea how to confess...

Kunikida: Let me guess, you're talking about Poe?

Ranpo: ...How'd you know?

Kunikida: Because you're fairly obvious about liking him.

Ranpo: I AM?! *embarrassed*

Yosano: *walks up to Kunikida and Ranpo* Yes, you are.

Ranpo: ...Drat.

Kunikida: Don't worry, we're not saying it's a bad thing.

Dazai: *appears out of nowhere* What are y'all talking about?

Ranpo: You'll never know.

Dazai: But Raaaaannnnpppoooooo....

Ranpo: *sighs* Fine. I like someone and don't know how to deal with it. I'm not as smart as I thought I was.

Dazai: Don't say that, of course you're smart.

Kunikida: Yeah and if it helps at all, remember how oblivious Dazai and I were before we got together.

Ranpo: True. Not all hope is lost after all.

Dazai: Ranpo! Did you just insult us?!

Ranpo: ...Maybe.

Dazai: This is what we get for trying to help you? Rude.

Ranpo: *shrugs*

Yosano: He's not wrong, though. You guys were really oblivious once.

Kunikida: Yes, but we're not discussing that right now. We're talking about you.

Ranpo: Right. So...how do I confess to Poe?

Yosano: You just go right for it and let whatever happens happen.

Ranpo: You're right. Thanks, Yosano! Thanks, guys. I'm gonna go try and find him.

Kunikida, Dazai, and Yosano: Good luck!

Ranpo: *grins and heads off*

Meanwhile, in the Guild's headquarters...

Poe: Guuuuuyyyyyyssss...

Louisa: Yes?

Poe: I need help.

Mark: Help, ya say?

Poe: Yes.

Lucy: You've come to the right place!

Louisa: What's going on, Poe?

Poe: I like someone...

Lucy: It's Ranpo, isn't it?

Poe: *embarrassed* ...Was it really that obvious?

Mark: Yeah.

Poe: ... *hides his face in his knees*

Karl: *crawls up to Poe and nuzzles against him*

Poe: *pets Karl*

Louisa: *sits by Poe and pats his back* It's ok, Poe.

Poe: *muffled voice* No, it's not. This is embarrassing...
