The Grey Zone: Beard?

"Shower...." Kaito yawned, wandering into the bathroom. Saguru had already finished his shower and was standing at the sink with a towel wrapped around his waist, shaving. They'd been unexpectantly called away from the house for several days now and they were pretty scruffy from the travel.

Fortunately for Kaito with his adhesive disguises, he wasn't inclined to be all that hairy and didn't have to shave all that often if he didn't want to. After about a week, a very sad moustache would try to form, but that was about it. Oyaji had had a moustache, so he supposed that it might change in the future but for the moment he was content as it was.

Saguru was a bit hairier than he was. After a few days, he started to look just plain scruffy, something the meticulous detective loathed. And he complained that it itched. Saguru was fussier than he was anyway, so he wasn't too surprised to see Saguru, damp towel wrapped around his hips, shaving off the few days growth with a vengeance.

"Hey, Kaito." Saguru smirked, wiping the shaving foam off of his face, his glasses having fallen down to the end of his nose. The blond had shaved his cheeks, but hadn't gotten to around his mouth yet, leaving a scruffy blond goatee. "What do you think?"

This was Saguru.

This was Saguru looking like a wannabe Evil Overlord, plotting to take over the world.

Kaito raised an eyebrow.

The Dread Pirate Saguru?

Saguru... Lord of the Underworld....

Kaito shook his head, opening up the shower curtain and stepping inside the bathtub. "No."

Saguru snickered, reapplying the shaving foam and began shaving the rest of the hair off.
