The magician's feathers ruffled a bit as he directed his magic towards the sleuth's injuries, a pleased gleam appearing in his gaze as said injuries began to heal without a trace. He used to occasionally leave scars behind, but he'd thankfully improved enough to prevent scarring when possible. Sometimes an injury was just too well known that it would've been suspicious without allowing it to scar.

A relieved sigh passed through Shinichi's lips, muscles losing a bit of tension at the loss of the pain "Thanks" He offered once the other pulled out of his personal space. He reached for his shirt and easily slipped it on. He still felt tired, but at least his cuts weren't annoying him anymore.

Kaito flashed a grin "Just try to stay out of trouble" He knew asking was useless, but he still felt like he had to. After studying Shinichi for a few moments, he let out a small sigh. He wasn't sure if it was a good idea to send the other away now "I don't know how you managed to get here, but you can stay until you feel a bit better" The sleuth was now pale instead of flushed, he didn't want to risk the guy running into trouble when unwell. Tsuki cooed from atop the magician's head, having messed up his hair more so than usual to make a nest of sorts, both males smiled at her antics.

The rest of the day passed normally, with Shinichi lying on the couch before leaving at noon after resting for a bit. Though he did sneak in a delayed healing spell onto the sleuth before he'd left. It'd been designed to activate at night so that Shinichi would be healthy when he woke up. The same spell had also been cast on Saguru since it wouldn't do for both of Beika's best detectives to be on leave for too long. His two friends solved most of the cases after all, even though they shouldn't have to.

Saguru smiled as he eyed Kaito, he'd woken up feeling refreshed. Gold softened as he watched the other let out a small yawn before stretching luxuriously, indigos blinking open moments after. Kaito's eyes were half lidded from sleep as he offered Saguru a sleepy smile "You seem like you slept well" The blond breathed.

Kaito wiped his eyes, removing sleepy tears from his yawn "I did" He gave a small nod before sitting up "It's weird since I know that we're going to visit Aoko and Akako today" Shouldn't thoughts of his friend's creepy house disrupt his sleep?

The blond used a hand to stifle a yawn of his own after watching Kaito yawn "Go shower" He glanced at the clock "I'll have breakfast done by the time you're done" He'd shower after breakfast.

The magician blinked, before a mischievous grin spread across his lips. Indigos gleamed "The upstairs shower is big enough for the both of us" He whispered, raising a brow "Wouldn't it be better for the environment if we shared?"

Saguru snorted, shaking his head "We'd end up using more water in the long run"

"I'll be good" Kaito smiled softly.

The blond rolled his eyes, planting a chaste kiss on Kaito's lips before pulling away "Impossible" He pointed towards the washroom "Go shower Kaito, Koizumi-chan called again and said that she wanted us to visit before noon" They'd be cutting it too close if he followed the other's whims.

Kaito's shoulders sagged, knowing that he wouldn't win "Fine" He snagged a fresh set of clothes to change into before heading towards the washroom.

Breakfast came and went easily with Saguru deciding to just make some french toast and fake bacon. Though the magician's had been topped with an unhealthy amount of both syrup and powdered sugar.

"I still can't get over that Aoko is living in this creepy house" Kaito grumbled as they exited the car. Akako's old family mansion stood tall in the forest, casting an eerie atmosphere over the whole area.

Saguru just shot Kaito an indulgent smile, they'd arrived just at 11 since it seemed like a reasonable time "Aoko probably doesn't even notice the atmosphere" Even he had to admit that it was a bit creepy "Things like that don't usually seem to affect her"

Indigos warily eyed the house before the two headed towards the door, not bothering to knock before entering because Akako just usually had it swing open creepily anyways "Ahoko!" He called as he stepped through the door, making Saguru grimace.

"Kitchen!" Aoko's familiar voice called, both males removed their shoes before heading towards the kitchen.

"Hello!" Kaito chirped when he caught sight of his female friend, his wings had been out since they'd entered the property.

"Still so rude" Aoko sighed as she put down the salad that she'd been making. She peered over at Saguru "Why hasn't your politeness affected Bakaito yet?" It was a bit disappointing that Saguru's nature hadn't infected Kaito's.

Gold softened with a smile "It's nice to see you again Aoko, it's been a while" He glanced around the kitchen to see that lunch was in the middle of being made "May I help?" He inquired.

Aoko returned the smile "Sure, you can cook the meat and Kaito's fake meat" She then turned towards the magician "Akako wants you to see her in her room" Her eyes gleamed at the uncomfortable look that crossed over Kaito's face.

"But then there'd be no witnesses..." He whined, wing tucking in tighter against his back. He liked Akako, she was his friend, but he didn't like being alone with her "Why can't we go to the living room?" Where they'd be closer to his other friends.

Gold gleamed as Saguru put a hand on Kaito's shoulder "We're guests, so go see Koizumi-chan" He trusted that the other wasn't in danger and it was fun to mess with Kaito.

Kaito's shoulders sagged, indigos glimmering with mock hurt "Traitors" His words were a dark whisper "The two of you are traitors" Despite his words, he began to head over towards Akako's room. It wasn't a bedroom, but where she did most of her scary potion making.

Me: So what do you think Akako wants with Kaito?

Hope you enjoyed zee chappy~

When I was little, I used to coat my hands in juice or something sugary... then put my hand next to the park trash to collect some wasps

I then chased people with my wasp hands, never got stung
