[Conan struggles to open his eyes. It was cold. So very cold. He couldn't move. Could barely find the strength to stay conscious What happened?

And then he remembered.

...The dam. The bombs. Starting an avalanche to stop the flood. Ran's scream in the car far below as the avalanche had swallowed him up.

The weight of the snow pressing down on him. The silence.

And then... Ran had called his name. Called for Shinichi.

At the memory he forces his eyes to slit open. This... This was Dissimulo? That was his communicator lying by his hand?

Conan didn't have the energy to move or call out. But maybe he could reach this. Painstakingly slowly he forces his hand to move and presses the video button.]

[She feels relieved. Finally, seeing that broadcast, she feels so happy to see him again. For him to be in a place where she knows she can take care of him means the world to her. And even though he's hurt, she and Adam and other friends he's made here can do something about it.

Which is exactly what she plans to do.

Abruptly, she turns on the a video feed, trying to stay calm. Calm, because she can tell he's hurt, and he needs her to be. Why is he just lying there--?]

Conan...? Conan, where are you?

[Is that...Discedo's hospital?]

[Conan doesn't respond. After being treated and wrapped in heavy blankets he had rapidly fallen into a deep sleep.]

[That's probably a good thing. If Ran were certain of that, she'd certainly agree, anyway, but...

Not being sure, she has to try contacting him again. Surely someone's picked him up by now, haven't they? She has to be sure of that. She has to be...]

[He stirs slightly at her voice, but doesn't wake.]

[She hears the stirring now, at least, and the feed's been activated. She can see that he's wrapped in said heavy blankets, fast asleep, and she can recognize the hospital now, too. Someone was able to take him after all...

Thank goodness.]

...Sorry. [She speaks more softly, letting out a sigh.] I didn't realize...

[...]

I-I'm coming, kiddo, so you better hang in there.

[She's already making her preparations to head over there, and Conan may catch her just as she's shutting off the feed. But the communicator's coming with her, of course, should he decide to contact her back in the meantime.

~~Otherwise, this will probably be a timeskip.~~]

[She'll find him there, still asleep.]

[She simply lets herself in then, with several yawns, after the long subway ride. She looks around the room; and, thinking about it, she doubts that anyone who would go through the trouble of bringing him here would simply leave him like this. Perhaps whoever it was just stepped out for a while...

...She'll have to thank them, if they come back. But in the meantime, she walks next to Conan's bed, gently pushing back some of the hair in his face...

Smiling at just how much he reminds her of Him.]

Hey...

[Her voice is a whisper, with no intentions to actually wake him. She's just so relieved...]

[He stirs at the touch and his eyes slit open the tiniest amount.]

...Ran-neechan?

[She looks a bit startled, but so glad to hear him. Her eyes widen, removing her hand in surprise.]

H-Hey! [She says it with a bit more oompth this time, and lets out a breath.] You're awake. I didn't mean to...

[Disturb him. She frowns a little, looking away; but she finds herself glancing right back, looking into his eyes.]

How...how do you feel?

[He struggles to focus on her. It was better, now. Warmer and more aware than he had been before Adam had brought him here. But he was still exhausted. It took nearly all of his energy merely to stay awake. He was still numb with cold and he could feel the nagging aches in his body that he knew would be lingering with him for a long time. His voice comes out in a soft, strained whisper.]

I'm okay. Don't worry.

[There's no way she can believe him while he's in that condition. But she does appreciate the effort. Always a considerate kid, Conan. The Detective Boys could definitely learn from him.

...It's no wonder he's their leader.]

You shouldn't push yourself... [He looks like he's about to fall right back asleep.] Just...get some more rest and we can talk in a little bit, okay?

[She wipes something from her eye and attempts a smile.]

I'm...I'm not going anywhere.

[He nods faintly.]

I'm sorry if I worried you. I could hear you crying.

...Crying? N-No, I wasn't—

[...

Oh. Except she's definitely wiping something from her eyes again, and it definitely isn't dirt. Hah, she can feel another gentle tear flowing down her face after that, but that look on his face helps keep it under control.

She's got to stay strong after all.]

I-I'm fine. I was worried, though...you've been gone for a really long time.

I didn't think I was coming back. It was a long time at home.

Can...Can you tell me the last thing you remember?

[She wonders if he remembered this place at all back at home...but if she's honest, she hopes not.]

The avalanche. I could hear you crying for me but I couldn't move.

Avalanche... [whispering to herself]

I'm sorry, I- I don't remember that at all.

[And she'd remember something like that, wouldn't she? The scientists may be messing with his memories, or hers again.

But judging things as they are now, he's more likely.]

[He frowns as he forces his mind to work past his exhaustion.]

The memories again?

...Mmm.

[She frowns also; unsure of how to answer. But then shakes her head.]

No, d-don't worry about it right now. Just try to relax, and sleep if you can.

[...]

Do you...d'you remember who brought you here?

It was Adam. He found me.

[Ah. She nods...not entirely surprised.]

...Okay. I'll be sure to thank him later.

[And she ruffles his hair a bit, gently stroking and hoping he'll fall back asleep. She gives him a smile as well; something nice to look at as he does so.]
