Who: Conan and Various
Where: Various
When: Apple Day 18-22
What: Conan getting up to things 

Sleeper One, Cabin B, Day 18:

Conan spends most of the first night staring blankly up at the bunk above him. What little sleep he does get is disturbed by nightmares.

Rationally, he knew that no one here had ever heard of Shinichi Kudo or had any idea of why the name was important. Even if he reclaimed his name here, the chances were very low that the news would spread back to the media in his world, let alone the organization. The very fact that someone had been able to discover the truth behind his identity disturbed him, but no further threat from that angle had appeared so far.

But for the past year he had lived with the knowledge that the only thing protecting him from the organization was the fact that no one would guess that the child Conan Edogawa and the same person as Shinichi Kudo. There were even rumors that Shinichi Kudo was dead. Having that name attached to him here, without even the slim protection of his glasses as a disguise? He couldn't help but feel like he had attached an even larger target to himself.

By morning his rising paranoia has crystallized into a decision. He couldn't do anything about the name on his ticket or on the roster. But he could at least prevent himself from literally wearing it. A quick trip to the kitchen rewards him with a pair of scissors. He checks to make sure no one else was in the cabin, then pulls out his rucksack and starts carefully cutting the threads that kept each name tag attached to his clothes.

Kitchen, Team Orange:
At least chores like this were something familiar. He couldn't reach the kitchen counter by himself, but the floor was easy enough to sweep.

Gym Car:
Conan eventually finds his way to the gym car, where he occupies himself by kicking a soccerball against the wall in increasingly complicated ways. If there was one good thing about the shape of the car, it was the challenge it presented in finding ways to ricochet the ball off the walls.

She nods, of course she's alright. Despite her bandaged feet and the tight knot in her chest that has shrank a little whilst fighting with Peter but not completely.

"What do you be doing? Kicking it?"

She's explored all the balls before, they are interesting, they are different textures and weights and move differently. She's even read the ICP game list, but it's difficult to even picture how you would play them.
knifewithnoname: (yes okay)

"I did no never be hearing of soccer before I did be reading the rules." She waved her hand towards the information point.

"Do you no be needing more people?"
knifewithnoname: (your kidding me)

"Why do you need to be practising kicking a ball?" It's not like fighting, the ball doesn't kick back. There's no need to dodge or parry.

Everything took practice, she knew that, but she couldn't even imagine the type of practice kicking a ball would take. Was he trying to kick it further? Faster? Harder?
knifewithnoname: (serious)

Controlling it. She nodded, "That one did be bouncing everywhere, I can be seeing why you do be needing the practice."

She hadn't actually tried kicking one. Was it difficult?
knifewithnoname: (listening)

Any spot? She frowned for a moment and looked around before pointing to the corner down from her, at the end with the cupboard. "There."

She has stepped further into the room now, interested in seeing this skill of his.
knifewithnoname: (excited smiles)

That's not the direction she had said... But she followed the ball with her eyes and raised an eyebrow as it hit exactly the place she had pointed at.

"That do be being so... cool!" She borrowed a Peter word. "How did you be doing that?"
knifewithnoname: (excited smiles)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2019-08-18 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
That was pretty useful! The rules she had read hadn't said anything about maths but this looked much better than just kicking it around and passing it to other people. This seemed more like training than a game. She liked that.

"Can you be teaching me?" A pause and then, "I can be teaching you something in return if you do be wanting." Because nothing was free and she didn't want to be in anyone's debt, not even a little kid.
knifewithnoname: (listening)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2019-08-22 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
She grinned, that would be good. She had also been bored and she was used to learning every day, she wasn't used to being left to her own devices for hours on end.

What can she teach? She has lots of skills but many are not ones she can teach, not on this train full of self styled heroes of light and goodness anyways.

"I can be fighting, I can be teaching you that. Or climbing but I do be thinking you do already be knowing how to be doing that." He's a little kid, she's never met a kid who stayed on the ground any longer than necessary.
knifewithnoname: (quiet)

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2019-08-29 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
"Then I will be teaching you. I do be being a good fighter." She grinned, a skill for a skill. That was how things should be. Not all confusing like Tony hugging her or Peter trying to help her even after she had hurt him.

Since they are here and the ball is here, she guesses it's his turn to teach first.

"So how do you be calculating the angle?"
knifewithnoname: (listening)

"Geometry?" She shook her head. She had never heard of that word at all. "I can be adding up numbers and taking them away and sharing them. I can be time sing too but I could no be figuring out the speed of light when Peter did be giving me the numbers. It did be being too big to be doing in my head."

Annoyingly. Especially since she's furious at Peter right now. She wished she could have proven him wrong and showed that she wasn't stupid after all.
