“Does the name PN G054.203.4 mean anything to you, Kuroba-kun?” Hakuba asks.
Hello@angelicsentinel !!!!!! I feel as though I’ve run a marathon over the course of the past 72 hours with all the inconveniences that have come up but I’m here!!!! This is your Secret Santa!!!
I really couldn’t pick whether I wanted to draw or write a fic, so I went with a short story with a couple of simple illustrations to go with it. After ou said the scene with Chat Noir made Hakukai an OTP, I wanted to try doing something that had a similar feel to it, haha. I don’t want to say how in advance as to now spoil it, but hopefully it comes through. I also tried to do a different spin on a rooftop scene and star motifs!
I really enjoyed working on this, so I really hope you like it too. Thank you again for all of your patience.

Hi@fshteeth! I’m your secret santa! I had a hard time deciding what to use so I mixed two of your prompts. I also tried to hit some of the tropes you mentioned. I hope you enjoy!
Thanks so much for hosting the 2021 KaiShin secret santa @dcmkkaishinevents! Given the rating, I’m going to post a teaser here and follow with a link to it on ao3.

It’s a cozy scene.
One minute, everyone is sitting together. Kaito’s heart is warm, happy with his group of friends. They’re all in the film industry—well, not Kaito, not anymore. Once a part-time make-up artist, he’d returned to being a full-time student.
And he’s been working so hard lately, it’s nice to relax. One of Kenji’s films is on, the one that also stars Akiko and Haruo with Natsu playing Ken’s stuntman, and all of them are laughing and talking. Akiko’s throwing popcorn at the screen and Haruo’s chiding her. Natsu’s doing something in the kitchen but calling out criticism over the bar. Ken hates seeing himself act and he’s hiding his face behind Kaito, who’s seated in his lap.
Kaito is happy. Mostly.
His heart does ache just a little. Enough so that he loops his arms around Ken’s neck and rests his head against his just so he can watch the man sitting next to Ken. It’s strange Ken still lets him do this when his boyfriend is right there and they’re holding hands—though admittedly one of Ken’s arms is around Kaito’s waist—but Kaito tries to ignore it.
Kudō Shinichi has not been his responsibility for a very long time. It’s such a shock to see him here out of nowhere in the middle of nowhere. His heart is not ready to see him again. But Kaito bears it the best he can. It’s not so bad, really.
Actually, it’s a little bit nice. Even if the fact he’s dating Ken gave Kaito the shock of his life and more than a little melancholy.
He’s hyper aware of the detective sitting next to him, can’t stop thinking about it. He’s so close Kaito can touch him, yet he can’t.
(It’s still more than he’s had in a long time, so he’s happy.)
So for one minute, everything is perfect. The next, everything goes to hell.
