[Conan beams. Pure, unadulterated, cheerfulness might not be enough to distract from the drab, gloomy interior of Hel's hall, but he's trying hard.]

Ne -- I was thinking! I've heard a lot of people wondering why we were here -- not the reason in the letter. Why us and not anyone else! So that got me thinking -- maybe we'll find out the answer sooner if we ask questions to a lot of people at once!

I've got one for everyone -- sorry if it's a bit weird, but try and answer the best you can, okay? I bet it'll be useful in the long run. Anyway -- how important are you in your world?

I'll be waiting for your answer -- thank you!

[And clicking the feed off, Conan lets out a sigh, massaging sore cheek muscles. Tch ... this better work ... ]

Seven? [Instant concern. If she knew the truth, she'd be so mortified, but:] Is there someone in your house who can look after you?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Save your planet? That's definitely important -- I guess even if you weren't important beforehand, you're definitely important now!

Ah -- maybe?

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

[She blushes a little, taking that idea in. She doesn't think of herself as a hero or anything.]

Um... yeah, I guess.

[But there are more important matters at hand!] Well, if you ever need any help, just let me know. Alright? Even if we're in different houses, I don't mind.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

That's really kind! Where do you stay, Oneesan! And what's your name?

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

[Blushing even more deeply now!]

Well... it's just not right for a kid to be here alone.

Um, I'm in Heimdall, and my name's Nakama. Well, it's Mako Nakarai, but I go by Nakama. How about you?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Edogawa Conan, Hel!

Nakama-neechan! Haha, cute! Heimdall -- that means we're almost neighbours.

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

[Being called neechan is kind of touching, and hearing that her name is cute isn't quite so flustering from a child, so she just smiles a little at that.]

We are pretty close, aren't we? So you don't have too far to go if there's any trouble. [Gently.] What about you, were you an important person, Conan?

[It's not at all condescending. She knows that being a kid doesn't necessarily mean being a child.]

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Right! And if you ever want to visit, please do!

Ah -- not personally, but I help someone who is! Mouri Kogorou -- the most famous detective in Japan!

[... currently.]

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

[... s-so touched. What a sweet kid.] Thanks, Conan.

Well, if you help them, that makes you pretty important, too. That sounds like it'd be a lot of work without someone lending a hand, so you probably mean a lot to them.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

[Ha ... Like Occhan'd even notice I'd been kidnapped!]

I guess so -- but maybe I can use some of Mouri-ojisan's methods here, to help everyone!

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

That'd be really helpful! There's a lot we have to figure out... this whole place is like a giant mystery, isn't it?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

I think -- this could be the greatest mystery anyone's ever had to solve.

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

Well, it's a good thing we have you here, then.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Mm! I'm definitely not walking away from this until it's solved.

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

Good luck, Conan.

Um, is there anything else you have to know for the first mystery you were working on?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

I think I'm okay for now -- but if there is anything, I'll let you know!

[agoodfamily.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'll be glad to help anytime.
