[Kaito's Heart]

[A gust of wind rushes past you, so strong that you nearly stumble backwards from the force. You hear whispers in your ear, an unfamiliar voice saying, no, not here, not now, go back, before your senses shut off entirely]

[You wake up again to find yourself in a room]

[silly Ed you don't get to see that until after you decide to stay. the house's cards remain face down]

[Assuming that this is like a normal blackjack deck... The dealer could have at most two cards. Those cards could be wo of the ones he'd need--which are 1 though 5. That's a total of 20 cards out of 48 at most. That means hitting would be...]

[Why am I thinking about this! If Kaito was here, he'd say to just muscle through it and believe!]

HIT ME!

[HE GETS. . . ANOTHER 7]

[which puts him at 9 + 7 + 7 = 23]

[A buzzer sounds in the room, and Ed's hair promptly turns bright pink]

[this ain't a normal blackjack deck at all]
fuhrinkaed: (Is that so..?)

[the cards shuffle themselves (in thin air, like they're enchanted) and deal two hands]

[. . . are you good at poker, Ed?]
fuhrinkaed: (Huh?)

[It's difficult to bluff against and invisible opponent]

[But he wins! This time, a magic wand appears out of thin air and clunks him on the head]

[He gets a memory of Kaito learning how to shuffle cards from his father. Kaito is about five here]
fuhrinkaed: (To do what must be done)

[SHOUNEN BLACKJACK GT: SUPER BLACKJACK SUPREME]

[. . . he does win this hand! And this time, a few yen coins appear in the air above him and fall onto his head. at least they don't leave large bruises]

[These coins contain a memory of Kaito, age four, w]atching his father perform on stage. Tiny four-year-old Aoko in pigtails is with him]
fuhrinkaed: (Is that so..?)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2014-06-14 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
[I'll just keep the yen coins and wand then. Since, not all keys aren't metaphorical.]

[And now that that's done... let's try checking out the billiards tables.]

[They seem like normal billiards tables at a first glance. Where are you checking them?]
fuhrinkaed: (Leave it to me!)

[There isn't anything in the ball pockets, but touching the pool cue gets you a memory that you have already seen]

[. . . there's a button underneath the table]
fuhrinkaed: (Huh?)

[As soon as he does, a voice whispers in his ear]

Can you answer. . .

A man was going to bleach his socks because they had gotten muddy the day before. As he was pouring the bleach into the washing machine, he spilled some on the floor. He got some cleaning fluid and mopped it up with a rag. Minutes later he was dead. What killed him?
fuhrinkaed: (Is that so..?)

Re: HEART AND SMILE (CLOVER)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2014-06-14 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
[........]

Oh! Did he try to clean the bleach with ammonia? You're really not supposed to do that.

Ah . . . um, I'll come too?
fuhrinkaed: (The eagerest beaver)

Re: HEART AND SMILE (CLOVER)

[personal profile] fuhrinkaed 2014-06-14 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good. There might be more keys up there... just four more and I can open that door.

[Starts a climbing.]
clocksandroses: (And thus the world stands still.)

Re: HEART AND SMILE (CLOVER)

[personal profile] clocksandroses 2014-06-14 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Climbing after him!]

There's another door I think we need to open. It's . . . there's a bloody trail, and seven locks. I got one open.
