uh oh, something got spilled on his shirt. jinu sighs wearily, without a thought, pulls his shirt off over his head to show off his own abs, frowning at the stain. " not again. "

the scream that fills the room could have shattered a thousands glasses — FANS SHRIEK IN ADORATION, security has to pick up a few that PASSED OUT on the front row of the sign booth. saja boys assistant scatter for a second, although are instructed by the manager to take their time. AND RUMI—

DOES NOT NOTICE THEM. her eyes are glued to him; to the ripples on his skin, to the way his muscles tense and relax like the strings of a bow. could be the juice, could be swear, but she watches with too much intent a drop roll down his stomach, then dipping in the deep v of his waist.

and SHE SPUTTERS, choking into whatever the hell she was drinking herself, looking away before jinu could hopefully notice. there's a few coughing sounds coming from the huntrix table, zoey patting her back with a concerned look.

( she notices too late a flash. shit. they'll be hearing from dispatch about this. )

❝ HE doesn't— I didn't smell !! ❞

❝ and BABY smells like whatever CHEAP COLOGNE he's wearing ! ❞

"i bet he smells like sulfur. i bet you smelled like sulfur, after you hugged him. i bet baby at least smells like... bubble gum, or something."

❝ i don't know if i would go THAT far, one of them is LITERALLY called baby. ❞ eyeroll. ❝ and he wasn't THAT BAD of a hug— ❞

"and? jinu is a bitch baby."

[patternglow]

not that jinu was that bad a hug.

[patternglow]

❝ he is an OPEN FLAME OF ANGER AND MALICE. ❞

GWI-MA ???

"between him and jinu? i know who i'm choosing."

there's no other proper way to say it; RUMI HAS A STICK UP HER ASS. she's extremely closed off, she's an ambivert, she's good at meeting people, but not really at KEEPING RELATIONSHIPS, even less MAKING THE FIRST MOVE.

this is of course due to her upbringing, her markings, and her insecurities. but rumi is also human, so she hides a DEEP-SEATED YEARNING. for attention, for praise, for touch, any kind of affirmation. and when she gets it, SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH HERSELF, turning most often than not into an awkward mess.

❝ as i just said, NONE of your business. ❞ the honmoon shines around them; it's quick, a wave of glimmer that soon disappears, but it's there. IT'S A WARNING. you're still here only because i let you, abby.

❝ i suggest you find SOMEONE ELSE to pick up on, ❞ she walks, closer, her fingers brushing against the cords of the barrier. ❝ can you afford to miss a few PHOTOSHOOTS ? ❞

GOT HER. The other two he could flirt with and mess with them that way, this one required a different approach. Good thing he was paying attention.

He might play as 'the hot one with nothing else going on,' but he was attentive, smart. Rumi here seemed far too buddy-buddy with Jinu, which would benefit them in the end... and left her open for targeting.

"Ohhh, touchy subject, huh? What? I'm right, aren't I?"

KPOP DEMON HUNTERS (2025)

[patternglow]

waking up at six like the house is on fire then realizing i don't have anything to do

[patternglow]

❝ another piece of SOULLESS CORPORATE COMMERCIAL SLOP, if you ask me. ❞ she doesn't need to say it; LIKE YOURSELF. ❝ fitting, really. ❞

and yet anger grows just at the mention of his name. something TIGHTENS in her chest, and she doesn't know what it is — she doesn't know if it's HATE, if it's LONGING. she wants to hate him. the pill goes down easier that way.

the blade rests against her shoulder; she doesn't move closer, but she doesn't look like she's ready to leave, either. ❝ just COME OVER HERE, it'll make things quicker for the BOTH of us. ❞

❝ what do you want, baby. ❞

he keeps his distance - it would be stupid to go against a hunter on his own. they are good, baby can give them that - if they weren't, there would be no need for this ridiculous plan. " not fair, " he disappears into a puff of red smoke before reappearing further away, this time standing on the roof of a house.

" i don't have a song to quote. except soda pop, " his demon form flashes behind the red smoke before returning back to the disguise, words fading into a melodic hum. " cool me down, you're so hot, so on so on. "

" for the record, that song drives me to insanity. though it's funny to imagine jinu sat down writing it, all super focused. i wonder how long it took him, " he makes a vague hand gesture. " does it seem like i'm trying to just play time here? "
