Indigos gleamed when the waitress brought over their orders, he'd decided to get the triple chocolate minty brownie deluxe sundae, and it looked even better than he'd imagined that it would. Three scoops of mint chocolate chip ice cream drizzled with chocolate syrup were resting on a good sized brownie, said brownie was filled with white and milk chocolate chips and covered in chocolate icing. The rainbow sprinkles and whip cream covering the whole thing added a nice touch of colour to his food.

"That looks disgusting..." Shinichi eyed the other's sugary treat with distaste, how the hell did the guy stay so thin? Not to mention the fact that he never got any cavities. He was quite content with his simple order of lemon ice cream, it thankfully wasn't sweetened by an obnoxious amount of sugar. He never understood why some lemon foods were sweetened, lemons were supposed to be bitter.

Kaito smirked, spoon in his mouth "And your food is boring" The warmth of the brownie and the coolness of the ice cream was so amazing "You could have at least added a blond brownie or some whip cream"

Shinichi grimaced at the thought "I'm not really in the mood for sweet things" He'd only really been planning on getting a coffee before the other had shown up.

"So" The magician paused to eat some of the delicious meal "If I'm not mistaken, you're supposed to be working right now" The sleuth wasn't one to just play hooky "So why are you hiding here?"

The sleuth frowned "Some nobody inspector barged in wanting to know why Beika has the best crime solving rate" He really didn't understand how the guy could have possibly become an inspector, the guy seemed too impatient "Some of my co-workers helped me escape before the guy learned about me" He couldn't help the small smile on his lips as he thought about them, they really were good people.

"Wait" Kaito sat up, sitting straighter than before "Are you telling me that the guy didn't know who you were?" He inquired incredulously. How could an inspector in Japan not know who Kudo Shinichi was?! The guy took down two worldwide organizations and solved crimes wherever he went. It took time to become an inspector, so the guy obviously wasn't new.

Shinichi gave a small nod, taking a sip of his coffee "That's exactly what I'm saying" He breathed "The guy even called me a rookie"

Kaito snorted, then promptly choked on his food, coughing for a few moments, thankfully he'd only breathed in a bit of his food "No" He gasped, pained tears in his eyes "He did not call you a rookie" There was no way that could have happened.

The sleuth smirked, deciding that his friend wasn't about to just die via choking "He did" If only the cameras in the station had sound, the guy would be a laughingstock.

"Oh my god" Kaito was cackling, just imagining the scene was hilarious "I wish I was there to watch!" Gods, that was comedy gold in the right social circles. His face felt like it was going to split open with how wide he was grinning "And you're probably going to have to deal with that guy eventually, aren't you?"

"If he visits my house and doesn't leave when I tell him to, I'll file a complaint" Shinichi sighed, doing so would be tedious "Then the guy might be put under review" Hopefully, he was pretty sure that there would be at least a few people who would jump at the opportunity to lower his power in the rankings.

Indigos gleamed at the answer "Whose side will they take?" He snickered "A bossy inspector, or the saviour of the Japanese police force?" The answer was already obvious. The magician then started to eye the other curiously "By the way, why aren't you an inspector?" The sleuth had already more than proven his own worth tenfold by now.

Shinichi blinked "I must have forgotten to tell you" At Kaito's curious look he explained "I was offered the position years ago, but I didn't want to deal with the paperwork" That and it seemed like after a certain point, there was less and less fieldwork in the higher positions.

Kaito nodded in understanding "I can't imagine you willingly staying in an office all day when you could be on the field instead" The other was just too proactive in his job.

"I'd die from either boredom or stress" The sleuth drawled "Saguru can't be everywhere, so there would be more missed murders" And by the time he knew about them, the evidence would most likely have been destroyed in a lot of the cases.

"Ah..." The magician winced at the thought, that wouldn't be very good "I'd probably end up butting in too much" He was technically a better officer than most of Beika's officers, which was sad since he wasn't actually an officer. He was just a doctor who may or may not work with the FBI off and on.

"So it'd be death by paperwork then" Kaito's involvement in cases often led to quite a bit of extra paperwork.

The magician let out a small giggle "Probably" He finished up his delicious meal, sighing contentedly "That was delicious" He was definitely coming back here one day, probably with Saguru.

Shinichi glanced down at his own empty bowl "It was okay" He admitted, it wasn't the best, but he'd had worse.

Kaito fished out the required cash and placed it on the table "Good luck with avoiding that guy" He grinned "Tsuki is really good at aiming things..."

Azure widened, a small laugh bubbling out "Thanks, I'll keep that in mind" He was pretty sure that Kaito had left some glitter in his house, for some reason.

"It's been a while since she's been able to pull a trick" He stood up "Anyways, I'm heading home now" Kaito flashed a grin "It was a nice date" With that he was suddenly gone.

Shinichi scoffed, rolling his eyes "Idiot" He breathed, though he'd been pleased to see that the potion hadn't harmed the other. He'd been sort of sceptical, yet hopeful of its effects.

Me: So a platonic date of sorts between them~

Of course one of them had to choke, but at least there wasn't a murder~

Hope you enjoyed
