"You've just missed Shotaro Hidari. I'm probably fighting those that make the city cry. I'll get back to you as soon as I'm done."

Tip Box
The box is cardboard, mostly purple with some black bits. The top has a standup part on it that reads "Hidari Detective Agency". The message on it says: Need help? Know someone that does? See something weird you want someone to look into? Leave me a note here!

[Making out with the girlfriend is the best-- oh it's Philip. To his credit, he doesn't complain too much. He pulls out of kissing her and buries his face in the crook of her neck with a light chuckle.] Still reading even during a blackout, you research maniac.

[sentimentalpsycho]

[ The sudden noise of someone entering the room made her jump back, but she heaved a sigh of relief when she saw who it was.

Still, kind of an awkward situation. ]

Uh... hey.

[decideformyself]

Ah, Fetch. What are you doing here? [ He clearly has no idea what he just walked in on.

He sits down next to them and grabs Shotaro's flashlight. ]

[tanteiotaku]

[But he's just rolling with it. Two of his favorite people in the same room wasn't a bad thing even if he had just been walked in on smooching.] Still hung up on bikes, huh? Man, I miss my motorcycle....

[sentimentalpsycho]

I got bored, I came here.

[ She shrugged, giving Shotaro a tiny wink. ]

Hey! You can ride, Sho?

[decideformyself]

Now that I would be interested in seeing.

[ And he wedges himself right in between them and opens up a book. ]

[tanteiotaku]

Yeah, I do. It's nowhere near as sweet as the Boss's but it keeps up well enough. He never let me so much as touch it. There's not much better for getting ahead of fleeing suspects than a motorcycle.

[sentimentalpsycho]

[ Fetch playfully rolled her eyes at Philip's insistence to be in the middle. She couldn't hold it against him. He was still just a kid, no matter how smart he was. ]

In criminal pursuit pretty often then, huh? [ She shot him a look like she didn't quite buy it, but she was still smiling. She looked down to Philip's books and gave him a little tap on the shoulder. ]

What's the interest in bikes?

[decideformyself]

[ His eyes light up. ]

John Smith, Shotaro, and I are going to build one! In order to be prepared, I must learn everything about the construction and operation of bicycles.

[tanteiotaku]

[He briefly looked like he wanted to say something about Philip getting between them but he changed his mind when Fetch didn't seem to mind.] Yeah, sometimes. Usually the boss had me tailing people. And finding lost family members.

[sentimentalpsycho]

[ The motorcycle thing was pretty cool, but the bicycle thing was just plain adorable and would receive all of her attention. ]

You gonna teach him how to ride, Sho? [ She looked a bit like she wanted to laugh at the idea... ]

[decideformyself]

[ :DDDDDDDD

He grins at Shotaro expectantly. ]

[tanteiotaku]

How's a guy with one foot supposed to teach someone how to ride a bike?

[sentimentalpsycho]

We could make you a new one out of Play-Doh.

[decideformyself]

I've read about these things called "prosthetic limbs". Perhaps we could obtain one for you.

[tanteiotaku]

Play-Do-- You brat! That sounds crazy expensive, there's better uses for my money than that.

[sentimentalpsycho]

You say that like you don't got a shit ton of cash, Sho.
