As Kaito, he finds Hattori strangely easy to get along with, especially since he was a detective and was freakin' ecstatic to find out he was a detective who didn't worship Holmes. If anything, Kaito was actually pleased to have someone from home who wasn't suspicious of him within two lines of talking to him, unlike Conan. Of course, he deliberately baited Conan just to see how far he could push things until the chibi tantei finally came out and said something to him. Then again, Hattori also didn't automatically assume that Kaito was from his world, even with the strong resemble to Kudo, so there's that too.
As for KID... well, unlike with Tantei-kun, KID's relationship with Tantei-han is somewhat different. Sure, they're still detective and thief, but their relationship isn't defined by the give and take that he was with Conan or even the 'I'm gonna prove who you are' mentally that Hakuba has for him. If anything, it's a relationship without the 'now you owe me' back and forth, and one built on mutual respect for each other's talents and connections. Which is kinda nice, considering that KID doesn't normally get that.
And he respects him enough that he gets a nickname. Make of that what you will. :)
