Shoon and Kidd butt heads upon their first meeting and discuss the peculiar weather and Colton's mysterious injuries.



Kidd: *has his cap pulled down low and his back hunched close to the ground as he snoops around the corner of the trade shop, keeping his magnifying glass close to the ice*

Shoon: *is outside sweeping the dust of the steps, making sure the shop looks as clean as possible if there ever are any costmers. he goes to the corner to beat the broom free of its dust and sees the strange kid* Umm...What are you doing?

Kidd: *nearly smacks himself in the face with his magnifying glass and scrambles up* Do you want to draw unnecessary attention?! If you make me look suspicious, I'll never be able to collect all the clues!

Shoon: *gives him a wtf look* Riiiight... Clues. Move back would you? *starts to hit the side of the building with the broom making the dust fall on the ice*

Kidd: alsdkfj you're covering up the ice!! What do you think you're doing?! *accusatory point*

Shoon: *blank stare* I'm cleaning the broom so that when I sweep tomorrow I won't leave any of today's dust? *pause* What are YOU doing anyways? Creeping around like a spy?

Kidd: *insulted* I'm not a spy; if you want a spy, talk to Nash. I'm Kidd! *puffs out* Kidd, Budehuc's number one child genius detective!

Shoon: *really not sure what to make of this kid* Child genius? How old are you?

Kidd: Seventeen. *_* .... *just barely five feet tall*

Shoon: *is five three, so isn't that much taller* Right... so shouldn't you be you know, just genius detective? I mean, you're almost an adult. *shakes head* Anyways, you shouldn't be creeping around in broad daylight! Some people might think you're a theif, or worse. A pervert! *leers* Are you a pervert? *totally messing with him now*

Kidd: *rubs his nose for a moment* I'm just so used to calling myself that, I guess I never thought of it that way. And there's no way people would think that about me! Unlike certain clue covering individuals, everyone here recognizes me and knows who I am!

Shoon: Yeah, well, what about the people who don't know you? You wanna find yourself beat up?

Kidd: I'll have you know I was in the Budehuc tournament a while back. *puffs out even more, obviously not mentioning that he was KO'd in the first match*

Shoon: *raised eyebrow* Let me guess, one punch and you were out, am I right?

Kidd: N-no! Definitely not! But if you want anymore, you'd have to pay me for an inquiry! *sticks up his nose and begins looking at the icicles hanging on the windowsill*

Shoon: Pssh, like I would want to. *follows his gaze* Now what are you looking at?

Kidd: I'm looking for clues. If you had been paying attention to the first time I said it, you'd know! There's a huge mystery afoot, and I'll be darned if I let someone sweep DUST over important clues!

Shoon: What mystery? Nothing's going on here but this freaky weather. *looks up at the icicles* I probably should get rid of those.

Kidd: You don't think this weather is mysterious? What, are you from Freaky Weatherville? *nudges his hat up by the handle of his magnifying glass* Something fishy is going on, and I'm going to solve it first before that bum Oboro does!

Shoon: I'm from Falena, I don't know the frist thing about weather. *starts to poke at the icicles with the end of his broom* All I know is that one day there was a bunch of snow, and then during the middle of the night it turned to ice. Like it melted and then froze again...*pauses for a moment thinking, and then shakes his head* Oboro's here too? Man, it's like a Falenan colony here or something. *shakes his head again*

Kidd: *grumbles when Oboro is mentioned but does not pursue the topic* Well, it's not common weather anywhere, and that's what's so fishy about it!

Shoon: Well, now that I really think about it, I guess it's not.
Shoon: Watch out. *icicles start dropping*

Kidd: *dodges the first one but gets hit on the hat by the other one and winces*

Shoon: I told you to watch out. *continues to poke and more come down* So, what do you think about this weather anyways?

Kidd: Besides being suspicious and abnormal? It's a pain in the butt, that's for certain. *takes off his hat and shakes the icicle off it* Did you happen to notice when it started? That's the most suspicious of all.

Shoon: Oh, I know how much of pain it is. *shows Kidd his bandaged hand* I had to punch my way out of the cabin Morgan and I share. As to when it started. Well, I was sleeping, but I know it woke me up.

Kidd: *stares in awe at the display of manliness* W-whoa... does it still hurt?

Shoon: Not really, it's just a cut. Had some glass stuck in it, but the doc got 'em out.

Kidd: Mathiu? *tilts his head* Man, he's good.

Shoon: Yup, him. *starts back towards the steps* Now that hurt.

Kidd: *straightens after a moment of oogling at Shoon's injury* Anyhow, what I meant was that this whole fishy fiasco started on the very first day of winter! Is that a coincidence or what?

Shoon: Did it really? *thinks* Did that include the blizard happening or just the freezing? The Freezing happened on the first day of winter...

Kidd: The blizzard started before that, but the flash freezing? Smack dab on the first day of winter, like clockwork. *sparkly detective pose whilst cuing his BGM*

Shoon: *feighning disinterest* Whatever. *looks at him* What are you doing now? Are you...posing?

Kidd: ...*holds the sparkle for a few more seconds*

Shoon: What was that just now? *staring at him like he has a second head*

Kidd: I'm a detective. You wouldn't understand. ~ Maybe someday you will. *patronizing tone*

Shoon: Hey now, I'm only a year younger than you. *scowls*

Kidd: *ego inflates a bit more, but then he remembers this dude punched through ice* Well, at least we agree on this weather being suspicious.

Shoon: *and glass too, remember that Kidd* Yeah, it is a little weird. One of those...magic things

Shoon: Makes it damn hard to move. And Morgan can't see anywhere with the ice being so smooth.

Kidd: You think it's magic? I didn't consider that.... magic isn't really my strong point. Do you know anything? Hey! Maybe we can team up! Of course, I'd be the leader.

Shoon: *blank look* uh...Maybe...I have to help Sir Lepant with the shop. I can't galavent all over the ground. And of course it's magic. If it's not natural it's magic. Duh.

Kidd: *ouch* Well excuuuuse me! I'll be sure to let you know if I find anymore clues though! *folds his arms*

Shoon: Fine, you do that. What clues you got so far?

Kidd: Well, there was the date of the instance, the ice, and I hear Colton's gotten himself burned badly, but that might be unrelated. It's still pretty mysterious though, unless he was trying to spontaneously combust and just did it wrong.

Shoon: I don't think anyone tries to spontaneously combust. It takes away from the spontaneous part, really.

Kidd: .... Touche. >_> Then I guess I really don't know how to explain it.

Shoon: Well, why don't you ask him?

Kidd: *doesn't want to admit that Colton gives him the willies* I don't know about you, but if I got scorched up bad, the last person I'd want to talk to is, well, me.

Shoon: *raised eyebrow* Really? Why?

Kidd: If you were lying on the infirmary bed all bandaged up, would you want to answer questions? Those kinds of inquiries end badly and I almost never get good clues from them!

Shoon: So it has nothing to you cominf off as nosey then?

Kidd: >___> *adjusts his bowtie* You know, I wonder where exactly he got burnt? *SUBJECT SHIFT*

Shoon: *smiles, and chuckles slightly* Well, I think the best thing you can do is ask him. But if you think that's not going to work, then you're stuck, ain't ya?

Kidd: Well, maybe I will! *puffs out, feeling threatened by Shoon's demeanor for some reason* I'll let you know how it goes. >_>

Shoon: *not impressed* You do that.

Kidd: Tch. *pulls his hat down by the brim and storms off*

Shoon: *watches him go* Name's Shoon by the way! *goes back to work.*

Kidd: I already know! *waves his arm* You forget I'm a detective! ... *totally bluffing*

Shoon: Oh of course, sorry, my bad!
