[Heiji's wearing his uniform, posting this officially as an officer of Maurtia Falls. His expression is serious. He's been gone for two months and a lot has seemed to change, but in light of the latest Majority Report he wants to take action now.]

Good afternoon.

It's been a rough few days for a lot've people, and a rougher week for others. According to th' news there are still people missin' from Heropa, and kids from Maurtia Falls. These people either need t'be found or at least discovered what happened to 'em so their families an' friends can have some closure.

It ain't gonna be easy, but I'd like volunteers to help identify the victims an' make a list of who never came home. If ye've got coworkers who're worried, or regular customers, or just that guy ya see at the bus stop every morning. Any way you can get information'd be a great help.

We should do our part t'make sure these people don't fall through the cracks as we recover from what Pan did.

Y'can reach me by comm at any time, or ask for Officer Hattori with the Maurtia Falls PD.

I don't really know the Maurtia Falls kids, but I'll ask my friends in Heropa if they know anything when I see them next, if nothing comes up before then.

[ weekly playground playdates with a bunch of heropian pre-schoolers ftw (◡ω◡✿) ]

[kendo_taisho]

Anything to help them, ya know what I mean?

This divide between imports and natives is such a big deal sometimes that I think we forget we're all still people.

[akito]

It's really annoying... It took a couple of months before the parents of the kids I play with believed that I wasn't going to turn out to be one of those crazy imPorts like Peter Pan.

[kendo_taisho]

[Small huff of a sigh.]

I hate unreasonable people who don't look at th' facts. Most of us are quiet and just keep to ourselves.

You a teacher of some kind?

[akito]

No, I just like playing in playgrounds, and kids play the best games!

[kendo_taisho]

[Well, it's not a lie!]

They got any detective games?

[resipiscent]

[SQUINTING.]

When did you get back?

[kendo_taisho]

[....squints back?]

Almost a week ago. Heropa was still overgrown.

[resipiscent]

Oh. That would be why I didn't know, then. I'll save the pleasantries for later, though. I don't know the names of anyone, but I definitely ran into a few kids in there. I'd probably remember them by scent if I came across them again, so if you decide you need a tracker, let me know.

[kendo_taisho]

I'll keep ya on speed dial. I've been contactin' people all day, tryin' to compile a list of who was affected and who's come home, etcetera. Only problem is there are thousands of people in Heropa. Add to that a handful of unwanted kids that went missin' from shelters and things here?

It's a mess.

[resipiscent]

Yeah. Hard to put together something like that.

Now that the curse is down, though, you should be able to put a call out for any kids who are lost in Heropa, right? That'd take care of the Maurtia Falls ones.

[kendo_taisho]

Ye've got a good point. The kids'd know where they're supposed to be. I'll head there tomorrow after I get off work and do a sweep, see if I can find anythin'.

Ya wouldn't happen to know where t'start, would ya? I'm not as familiar with Heropa.

[resipiscent]

Hm... Not exactly, not yet, anyway. Maybe the schools would put them up, that kind of thing.

[kendo_taisho]

Xavier's was used as a shelter, right? I should check there first, see if anyone's unaccounted for yet.

[resipiscent]

Yeah. Try giving the staff a call, I guess. I didn't see any kids there when I went, but I guess that's because it was before Neverland came down.

Studious as ever, I see.

I can help you search, if you like. [ He admires Heiji's persistence, in a way, even if their morals don't fall in line. Though he doesn't care about these people at all, he understands the need to quantify such losses. ] I can cover ground and search much faster than you can on your own.

[kendo_taisho]

[Oh cool, you're still here. He doesn't even try to argue. Magicman's ability was faster than even his bike. He can cover more ground.]

That'd be great. I've got a list've names I can send ya, as well as some pictures.

[A moment later, belatedly.]

Hey, what's that supposed t'mean?

[voice]; ID reads Kaitou KID

[tuxedo_magician]

I see they gave you your old job back, Tantei-han.

[voice]

[kendo_taisho]

[Can you read his smug tone?]

Ya worried, Kid?

[voice]

[tuxedo_magician]

Should I be?

[Guess who's heard of your reputation?]

[voice]

[kendo_taisho]

I'd say yeah, but I know ya better than that.

[What reputation? He totally doesn't have one of those.]

[voice]

[tuxedo_magician]

Your track record is almost as good as your counterpart.

[And KID has experienced THAT one first hand.]

[voice]

[kendo_taisho]

Almost as good!?

[Wow, way to hurt a guy's ego.]

[voice]

[tuxedo_magician]

Well, I haven't had to rescue you when you've gotten tossed off a blimp, have I?

[voice]

[kendo_taisho]

Shouldn't that mean I'm th' better detective?
