Waking up in a strange place is a sadly common for Shinichi-it wasn't even the first time he woke up on a strange boat. At least it wasn't a canoe this time. Still, after meeting with the cruise director and the near heart attack from her knowing his real name. He tried to insist there was a mix up but after that mess he decided to distract himself with a little exploring to get a better idea of the layout and where exactly he is.

The first place he's investigating is the main hall. He's got his notebook out and seems to be taking notes and looking far too calm for the age he appears to be.

He looks over as he hears someone approaching and shoves the notebook in his pocket before putting on his best little kid face and rushing up to them.

"Hello! Do you know where we are?" He offers his sweetest little kid face, eyes bright and innocent.


[[ ooc: Since Conan is a detective and I'm.. not. I made this post for people to info dump about things Conan might notice about your character. ]]

"'Earth'?" He parrots, and then realization flashes across his features. "Oh, that must be where you come from, right? As far as I know there's only the one ocean, but there's not exactly a name for it."

As though half-expecting the lad's parents to come running up any time soon he glances down the hall one way, and then the other. After a long pause he looks back at Conan, albeit a little sheepishly.

"You're really smart, huh? I'm sure your parents must be proud."

"Then I guess the name for it would just be 'The Ocean' right?" He says it innocently enough but it's meant to be a sarcastic dig at the obvious.

Isn't Earth were he's from? Or is he completely nuts? A question to ponder another time as he has far more important things to worry about.

"Oh, I guess..." He'll at least continue to play the part of the seven year old. However, he's never really care much about if is parents were proud of him. They're more immature than he is.

There's a pause as he takes that in. Childe has been around childlike immortals long enough to know that sometimes things aren't always what they seem. Far be it from him to be suspicious of a little kid, but it's not the first time the wool has been pulled over his eyes.

Of course, he could be dealing with a particularly precocious kid. He'll leave it at that for now.

"Huh. I guess you're right." The smile on his face seems perfectly practiced and in place, at least.

"Oh, my name is Tartaglia. I'm afraid I didn't catch yours."

Conan watched him curiously as he pauses, trying to discern what's going through his head but mind reading is a skill he doesn't really possess, all he can do on the front is observe and extrapolate to make a deduction.

"I'm Conan." he gives him a small smile. "Conan Edogawa."

"Conan Edogawa." He parrots, less to make sure he's gotten the pronunciation down and more to make sure he commits it to memory. Definitely not a name from his world, though there might some vague similarities in Inazuma.

"And how old are you, Conan?" He didn't think there was anything like an age requirement for this place, but it was telling he hadn't run into anyone obscenely young. Just one more mystery for the ship, he supposed.

[mysteryfreak]

"Oh, seven." He offers innocently. Of course that's been a popular question people have been asking. People don't tend to like it when a kid is left unattended for too long. "But I'll be eight in May."

[acutabove]

Okay he wasn't expecting anyone that young, wow.

"They really don't discriminate. Seven, huh? You're close in age to my little brother." He's not sure how to feel that there's a possibility Teucer could be on this ship, too. He'd like to think that he'd have run into him by now, but there was always a possibility he'd just missed him.

"Did you wake up in a cabin like everyone else?"

[mysteryfreak]

Maybe it does, he thinks to himself, after all, he's actually seventeen but no one can know that.

"I guess, if that's what happened to everyone else." Conan states innocently. "So is there anyone that might know more about where we are?" There has to be someone he can question that knows something.
