“…"  He was about to protest, but realised that he actually was thinking just that and started grinning. "You know what, I think I actually do and I found it rather amusing. I think Kaitou KID will be amused as well. But Hakuba-kun, what are you going to do if he actually takes you up on it?” He kept back the chuckle that tried to escape, but he didn’t fully hide his amusement.

“What, do you suppose that I shouldn’t wish to enjoy such a thing for myself? I’ve heard such wonderful things from his fanclub…”  Hakuba laughed, brow quirking as he regarded Kaito with a challenging smirk. “If he’s really all that good at kissing, I certainly want to know.”

The Neighborhood Watch || miyanohaibara

miyanohaibara:

Ai had been yelling at Agasa again for sneaking sweets into his laboratory so he could eat them while working. She noticed the lack of food inside the cupboards. She made a mental reminder to buy ingredients for stew later,

But for now she just needed to go on a walk,

She had ensured that ‘Agasa’s Secret Stash’ was hidden where he couldn’t find it…for now. She let out a huff as she got outside the gate.
She looked left and right, you never know when someone is just going to pop out of nowhere. But instead of Gin, Vodka, Vermouth, she just saw a blonde man standing in front of the Kudou Residence. She walked up to him,

“Oh, if you’re looking for Kudou-kun he’s out on a case.” She said in her usual monotone voice.

The little voice caught Hakuba’s attention, drawing him out of his concentrated train of thought. “Ah- what? Pardon?” Blinking, he glanced down at her and hesitated for approximately 2.333- seconds before his mouth broke out into a wide and pleasant smile. 

“Oh! You’re Haibara Ai, aren’t you? One of the infamous Detective Boys. You’re staying with Agasa-Hakase, if I’m not mistaken…” He then bowed, formal and polite. “A pleasure to finally meet you in person. I’m Hakuba Saguru, a detective not unlike Kudou-kun himself.”

The thief managed to hold back a laugh of his own at the other turning away. Colours might not be well seen at night, but it’s hard to ignore a darkening face.

“Hadn’t been planning on it,” he answered, shrugging slightly, “Just wanted to check in with you. But it’s not like I have any particular reason to have to leave either, so if you wanted me to… I wouldn’t mind staying.”

He tilted his head and grinned, tone becoming more teasing.

“Just so long as you wouldn’t try to catch me while I’m here, tantei-san.~”

“Well…”  Hakuba said, laughing with wincing smile. “Considering that I find myself to be quite naked, I can’t imagine where I’d be handing handcuffs; I do believe that you’re safe, Kaitou-san." 

He cleared his throat with a tiny cough into his fist, and glanced to his closet. "Though, if… if you do wish to stay- and it would be welcomed, I assure you -I should really get dressed. I wouldn’t want to make things any more awkward than they already are. And, incidentally…” He turned back to him, biting his lower lip hopefully. “…if you could avoid mentioning this little incident, I would… appreciate it."

   ”Phew, good.” Heaving a heavy sigh, Madison sat herself on the nearest bench and allowed herself a moment to breath. She had jogged the entire way in hopes that she hadn’t missed the bus, and was glad to find that she hadn’t.

   Glancing back up, “Yer awfully accurate.”

At the comment, Hakuba laughed and shrugged, tucking the watch back into his pocket. “Well, I should hope so… I’m a detective; the gathering and assessment of accurate data is essential for doing what I do." 

He slipped both hands into the pockets of his suit jacket, glancing to the stop marker, then looked back at the girl. "I’m… Saguru Hakuba, by the way. May I ask your name, miss?”

Pride and Obligation

smokebombsandmirrors:

He had laid down and was starting to get comfortable when Hakuba spoke to him again. His head lolled up and he gave him a sleepy smile. The offer was so tempting not because it would put him into his bed but because it put in Hakuba’s arms briefly.

“I … I think I’d better stay down here, thank you though." He tried to keep the dejection out of his voice when he spoke and sort of succeeded. 

Hakuba looked him over, then glanced toward the stairs, contemplating. "If you’re certain…” he said, though he didn’t sound at all convinced. “It really wouldn’t be any trouble, and I need to go upstairs, anyway, if I’m to use a guest room… I don’t think that I trust myself driving in this state.”

Really, he shouldn’t have been driving at all that night, but he had a difficult time listening to his conscience when in situations rife with anxiety. 

“Or… at least let me help you get a little more comfortable. Do you have a blanket or pillow I can fetch for you?”

He paused on the top step just a few above the other and looked back at him. It touched him that Hakuba wanted to help; had some how always wanted to help him. It dawn on him the earlier comment:

“I wouldn’t ignore a cry for help, Kuroba-kun… just who do you think that I am, anyway?”

Yes, it did include those he helped but …it included him. It included him. Just maybe there was some thing mutual. Moving on pure emotions he took one step down, leaned over and pressed his lips to the detective cheek just under the corner of his eye.

Lifting he walked back up the step to go, finally get to his spot on the couch.

Wh-

The detective froze again when Kuroba leaned close, refusing to move backward, but not meeting him, either. And as much as he wanted to wince because he didn’t know what was coming, he couldn’t look away. Then there it was – a simple, sweet gesture that left Hakuba red in the face all over again and speechless once more. 

He stood there for a few seconds after Kaito left, attempting to sort out the muddled thoughts in his head, but came up with nothing. Just the reminder that Kuroba was drunk, that things had been stressful, and that there was the high possibility that Kaito wouldn’t remember anything the next morning.

So he followed, coming to a halt near the couch with an expression of concern. “Are you all right here on the couch? Can I help you upstairs? I… ah, I could carry you, if you like. It wouldn’t be a problem…”

In what Detectiv Conan Manga are Saguru Hakuba 

Read More

Hakuba Saguru has been in the Detective Conan manga a total of two times.

image

The first instance was The Sunset Mansion (file 299-302). You might be able to read it online here, but it’s suspect and not very high quality. Your best bet will be to purchase the officially sanctioned manga however it’s available to you. In America, it’s volume 30 – here’s an Amazon link!

image

The second was the amazing Detective Koushien arc (file 562-566). You can read this online by visiting the Detective Conan Translation Project (http://www.dctp.ws/), clicking on “Read Vol. 54+”, then “Volume 54” in the sidebar, then navigate to “DC 54 – 9 East Detective (1)” – there are five parts in total.

The anime counterparts to these files (219, 479) are likewise excellent and are highly recommended. For further Hakuba goodness, make sure to read the Magic Kaito manga (available on DCTP) and watch the Magic Kaito anime – there aren’t that many episodes, so it’s easy to get up to speed.  You can even skip to when Hakuba shows up (volume 3, chapter 2 in the manga; episode 7 – ‘The Splendid Rivals’ in the anime) if you just want the good stuff!
