This was supposed to be uploaded yesterday, but my internet died shortly after I finished it. So. Happy late birthday, Hakuba Saguru!
Saguru growled slightly to himself. KID's heist had only started a few seconds ago, and he was already wishing he had stayed home. The heist had been going downhill before it had even started. The owners of the targeted gem had very mixed opinions on the thief. The man had placed himself at Nakamori's left shoulder the moment the task force entered his house and had proceeded to snarl curses and insults directed towards a certain, white clad thief, and 'who does that damn thief think he is, daring to attempt to steal from me, I hope his hang glider breaks.'
The woman of the house had a very different view on the KID. She had placed herself at Nakamori's right shoulder and proceeded to gush about how much she couldn't wait for the heist to start, and KID-sama was sooooooo hot, and mysterious and amazing and- Saguru had started to ignore her at that point. Nakamori-keibu looked like he was about ready to strangle the both of them.
Of course, Saguru's irritation at the moment had less to do with annoying jewel owners and more with the fact that he was tied to a chair. With a brown party hat patterned with little magnifying glasses and deerstalkers on his head. While the Kaitou KID pranced around the chair, spewing confetti, glitter, roses and doves from everywhere on his person. And the task force didn't seem in any hurry to help him, they were too busy staring at the spectacle KID was making of the both of them. It certainly didn't help that the KID was singing.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you! Happy biiiiirthday dear tantei-san! Happy birthday to yoooouuu!"
With that, KID disappeared in a poof of smoke and reappeared on the jewel's case. Another poof and he was grinning, holding the ruby in his white gloved hand. The task force blinked, gave a collective roar, and thundered off after the kaitou. Saguru sighed. It appeared he would be stuck here for a while.
It appeared that 'a while' was an understatement. It was approaching two hours when the task force finally got around to untying him- apparently custard mixed with something the force couldn't identify made for very viscous glue. Saguru was almost glad he'd been tied up.
He was sent home fairly shortly afterwards with a grumble from Nakamori-keibu.
A small chocolate cake was waiting for him on the kitchen table with the words 'Happy birthday tantei-san!' adorning the top in bright pink icing. Saguru smiled slightly.
"Idiot." He muttered, and went to get a fork.
