[There's nothing like freefall to put things in perspective. Any grievance Shinichi had over just how quickly Ran dropped him -- even if he'd been counting on that and had calculated the bare minimum of contact into his plan -- was lost in the rush of wind, calculations, jumpropes and -- if he had to be honest (and there was something about the ( Read more... )
