+1 Detective Brat

[spoilsfun]

 Hello!  It's Lel again. Because I just couldn't resist adding another character.

This time I'll be bringing in one of the greatest deductive minds of modern Japan. He's only seventeen, but he's already built a reputation as a genius detective who can solve any case, no matter how complicated.

...And due to being a reckless idiot of a detective, he's currently living in hiding as the worst pretend seven-year-old ever.  

Conan is a determined skeptic that does not believe in magic, aliens or ghosts. Whenever he's run into one of those before it has always, always been a hoax put up by someone trying to get away with a crime. Good luck explaining things to him.

A permissions post has been put on his journal here for his observational abilities. Like Sherlock Holmes, Conan can take one look at a complete stranger and put together some very accurate guesses on their employment, hobbies and recent travels. Comment there if that is something you want to play with.

Feel free to add me on plurk at leloipa.

Nice to meet you!

Its a fun canon! Its basically an 800 episode homage to classic detective literature. Conan is... well he's the poster child for why allowing young impressionable children to pick Sherlock Holmes as a role model is a terrible idea.

He will definitely be interested in meeting! In canon he spends a lot of time with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police/Police in other districts/FBI/private detectives of every description.

Oh man, would he be interested in joining the new Foreigner/kedan police force? Because he sounds like he would fit in :D

[spoilsfun]

Depends, would they let a seven-year-old join? Because he still has to pretend to be seven, for canon related reasons. If not he'd happily pick someone out to follow around and backseat drive through investigations.

[lasergrenades]

Well, if he proves himself competent it probably won't matter what age he presents at. We can see how it goes; he may just need to stay out of more dangerous situations since probably no one wants to be responsible for the seven-year-old getting injured.

[spoilsfun]

Should be fun either way!

He has lots of experience sneaking along on investigations people have tried to keep him out of. Since in canon he's hunting down an international criminal syndicate mostly on his own...

[lasergrenades]

Oh, good. He and Pepper will get right along. She regularly investigates things she's told to stay way out of, often by hacking the FBI.

[spoilsfun]

Oh good. He could use some more hacking tips. He can hack, but he's been more interested in things like codebreaking.

Whoops, wrong journal.

[lasergrenades]

It's not the most useful skill here in Keeliai, but she's always happy to chat about it. He should probably talk to Tony, too, then. He's the better hacker by far (also he can hack things with Extremis nanobots so).

[spoilsfun]

That sounds like it could be interesting too! I barely know a thing about the canon, but teen geniuses are always fun to throw at each other. Even if one of them is currently three feet tall.

It's a hilarious high school AU, I highly recommend it (I am not biased shhhh). Yeah, I think Tony and Conan would get along pretty well, hopefully you bump into each other soon :D
