Hmm, I think that's up to you. It was such a minor thing, and I don't think Conan himself really got a good look anyway, so it would be fine to pass it off either way.

Thank you! That's actually really helpful! And I think I can go with movies/OVA's not canon here... saves quite a bit of headache ^_^

Hmm... I dunno why but I see either Sonoko or Ran pointing out the uncanny similarities and Conan denying it/going against it to death (i.e. "There's just no way! Shinichi-niichan is waaaaay more handsome than that guy who looks like he walks around in his bed hair all day...")

Haha, that's perfect material for a story! And I think he really WOULD do that, I remember he did something similar with Hattori while they were having one of their famous deduction offs or some thing XD

This is more of a game/thought experiment than anything, but I might as well put it here.
What do you all think the other cast members might get Shinichi (not Conan) for his birthday?
Ran: Spent all day running around Tokyo looking for a mystery book Shinichi doesn't already have, had to settle for getting him a Batman comic. Or a kiss. Kogoro: A box of candy cigarettes he accidentally bought for himself a month back, thinking they were real ones. Yusaku: A new mystery story with a missing ending, meant to prompt Shinichi to solve it for himself. Heiji: A bokken with a note to "Keep yer upper body strength up, Kudo! <3". Inspector Megure and the MPD: A folder of cold cases to tide him over when "work" gets slow. Kid: A note promising to go easy on him for the next heist.
Anyone else want to speculate?

ooh, that's a good idea. in my humble opinion....
Ran: agreed with House. depending on whether or not this is pre- or post- revelation, maybe some gag gift relating to conan, haha. Kogoro: Dunno if he'd actually be inclined to get him anything aside for a boop on the head and a gruff "happy birthday, detective brat" XD Yusaku: either a new mystery story or unpublished book, or something akin to a precious version of a Holmes book (fist edition or limited edition or things like that) Heiji: a visit and dragging him off to eat that one food they mentioned in one of the movies, maybe with the girls, too. Megure: "happy birthday, please don't attract any more murders" + vacation day. with the way his luck goes, I don't think they have a time when work gets slow, but if that happens, then Shinichi would likely poke his nose into it asking for them anyway XD Kid: a flower and a note promising a heist especially for him. I think they enjoy the thrill of the chase (and it helps Shinichi to get his mind off murders), or so it's been implied, so he might just make it harder specifically for Shinichi to puzzle it through more.

Ran: A special, homemade dinner with a lemon pie for dessert. Mouri: A box of lemon drop candies. Because he cares. He just doesn't want to admit that he cares. Yuusaku: A book of riddles he came up with. Heiji: A tour of Osaka as well as treating him to all the Osakan specialties. Inspector Megure and the Tokyo MPD: They all chip in and buy him a "day off" at an onsen. Kid: ... ^w^ Many a fic has been written on this topic, but I'm of the belief that he gives him a handmade card and throws a celebratory heist in honor of the day with a treasure hunt style set of riddles that eventually lead to where they heist is going to be and then there are streamers and confetti and fireworks and cake.

Starlight and I seem to have similar ideas about the last three! Isn't that funny how we think alike even as we were writing it at the same time? ^.^

yeah XD but you've got good ideas with the others //nods// I forgot about Ran's cooking for a moment, haha, but that would be a wonderful gift. besides, as far as headcanon goes, Shinichi prefers to solve cases more than eat XD

Interesting, that's a good question! I think:
Ran: Something to get him out of the house. Maybe a trip to the movies, an amusement park, a restaurant, etc Kogoro: an Okino Youko CD that he got at a two for one sale Yusaku: a homemade forensics kit Hattori: a surprise visit Megure: a thank you card signed by everyone Kid: a beginner's guide to appreciating magic Haibara: various unmarked chemicals
And just for kicks, this is the Conan version: Ran: some new clothes or detective books she knew Shinichi liked Kogoro: socks or something Hattori: a surprise visit Megure: a video game to keep him at home and off crime scenes Kid: a gag gift or some kind of seemingly harmless object that's set to explode into a cake or small fireworks Haibara: a temporary antidote Shounen Tantei Dan: some Kamen Yaiba merchandise Agasa: a new, untested gadget Jodie: a junior FBI agent badge Sera: a card written in code and signed by the girl that lives in her room

Well I'm currently suffering on writer's block..like, I wrote few instances about how Ran would find Conan is Shinichi. But the thing is that her attempts seems to be somewhat futile. 'Cause I need her to be truly succesful, making Conan totally dumbfound. Can anyone suggest me ways for Ran to acheive the goal?

Hard evidence. Conan's tactics when it comes to Ran are almost always based around him acting like she misheard something or him setting up his own alibi. What I've read about before that he cannot deny is fingerprints; not even Shinichi can talk his way out of those. Conan's fingerprints wouldn't be hard to come by, but Shinichi's might be trickier to get, so it's not an easy solution. The obvious stuff, the behavioral similarities, he can and has talked his way out of. Alternately, if more than one person suspected the connection at the same time, it would probably help if they could back each other up.
If you're looking for a different angle than what's been tried before, you might have Ran come to the conclusion of Conan-is-Shinichi by investigating something else and accidentally discovering it. Example, if Ran had the bad luck of encountering the Org, and heard someone mention Kudo Shinichi and the poison (it would almost have to be Vodka, given that Gin doesn't remember victim names) I can see her coming to a conclusion pretty quickly after that (since Shinichi is alive, and she knows it, but if they think he's dead then he must be hiding, and "untested drug" is pretty much what she suspected that Agasa made anyway). Plus at that point Conan might freak about her being in danger, which has a notable effect on his ability to lie.
Hopefully that helps.

Thanks though for the information regarding fingerprinting. I think that's one of the best method for Ran to find it. The next one you said about involving Black Organization involving, well I'm trying to put this sydicate later, being the next phase of their lives. So kinda puting it right now will stire up the storyline.. So do you have any other evidences, where mostly Ran is working out alone..? Anyway, congratulations for winning #5 writing contest!
