Ranposano

"There is only one such place in this world. A place that doesn't need you at all. Join the Detective Agency. We don't want your ability. What we want is that "kindness"."

- Ranpo to Akiko, when they first met.

Ranposano is the het ship between Ranpo Edogawa and Akiko Yosano from the Bungou Stray Dogs fandom.

Port Mafia Arc
In chapter 7, they seem to know each other well, with Ranpo correctly anticipating Yosano's quirks and hobbies like asking someone in the Agency to accompany her shopping. Ranpo says that that ability to notice dangerous is a good one, "For example, 10 seconds from now...", just as Ranpo trails off, Dr. Yosano walks into the room with a yawn, asking if Atsushi is hurt, then asks if Atsushi would help her with shopping since he's the only one here, Atsushi turns around, confused when he sees everyone is gone, recalling them talking about the ability to sense danger.

In chapter 21, on casual occasions and even during the Guild war, Ranpo invited Yosano to play a game with him, particularly hanafuda, while Yosano accepted and fiercely asked what their wagers shall be.

The Guild Arc
When Akiko and Ranpo were together in Poe's novel, trying to solve a mystery. Concretely the scene where Akiko fictionally "dies". When Yosano failed to catch the culprit and eventually fell victim to the murderer, she placed her trust in the great detective for whom the Agency was established and thanked him for recruiting her to the organization. As Yosano "died", Ranpo used his deduction prowess and solved the case, apparently the first time without relying on his glasses and "ability".

In that scene Edogawa holds hands with Yosano and looks straight at her with his eyes wide open. We could see on his face how much Yosano's "death" affected him, although it wasn't a real death.

Hunting Dogs Arc
In the past, Mori found the 14-year-old Yosano and got her out of the isolation facility. Ranpo and Yosano first met, when the Detective Agency had only one member - Ranpo himself. Fukuzawa and Mori were fighting with each other, because of how Ougai treated Akiko and Edogawa was spending his time with Yosano escaping with her. Akiko was in a really deep depression back then. She thought it was her fault, her ability's fault that someone important to her died. She didn't want to escape. She thought her ability was horrible and she didn't want to continue living with it. She told Ranpo that she can't go on living like this.

Edogawa after that, with his usual cheerful attitude, told her it's stupid and she should just stop using that ability if she hates it so much. He tried to convince her that her ability isn't the most important thing about her. After she asked if there's a place where it's okay for her to go on living, Ranpo told Akiko that there's only one place that doesn't need her at all - Detective Agency. That they (him and Fukuzawa, at that time) don't want her ability. "What we want is that kindness". He was the first person who told her that it's her feelings that matter, not her ability.
