jinsung feels his anger rising as he struggles to pull the human to shore, hearing their curses grow the closer they got to the shoreline. it isn't often that he does something like that, throw himself into the thick of it for someone else let alone a stranger. but here he is trying to do good for once and he's getting cursed out for it instead by an ungrateful human.
by the time they reach the point he's able to stand upright, the tide lapping at his thighs, he's seeing red. "a death wish?" he spits out. "you're the one that was fucking swimming around in the water at night! if anyone has a death wish it's you!" his voice is raising in volume, almost shrill and his voice thick with a satoori he typically tries to hide.
"but fuck me i guess for trying to save your life!" jinsung's so angry, he misses the way sooyun says human, a clear sign that things are not as he thinks they are. in all honesty, he barely pays attention to anything she's saying. instead, he huffs and runs a hand through his messy wet hair while glaring down at the smaller woman. "are you an idiot or something?"
the library tonight is still and silent around jinsung as he curls up in his favorite arm chair on the third floor by the back windows. it's nice, a ctark contrast to the clan house which is always loud, the laughter and screams seeming to penetrate every hallway and door no matter where he hides. because of this he's taken to spending his free time in the library, steeling himself away in an unused corner and spending majority of his night reading through book after book.
he had the same intention tonight when he had shown up, excited to finish the novel he had started the night before. but he's been feeling wrong, a little off, since he had woken up only a handful of hours ago. there's a feeling nagging at the back of his head, something both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. as though it were something he had experienced once but had forgotten a long time ago.
and the longer he spends curled up in his favorite chair with a book spread out on his lap, the harder it becomes to ignore the buzzing in his ear. irritated, he stands tossing the book on the table beside him before moving through the stacks towards the stairs. the feeling gets louder the closer he gets to the exit, like the feeling is happy he's finally doing something about it.
as jinsung steps foot outside, he sees what's been bothering him. magic, thick and heavy hovers in the air as storm clouds circulate and rumble over the island. it's been a long time since he's been able to even see magic like this, perhaps the last night before he was changed into a vampire. it's both exciting and terrifying in the same breath. thunder rumbles overhead as the sky opens up and it begins to pour heavily. jinsung stands underneath the awning of the library's entrance, eyes straining to try and untangle where the magic begins and ends.
it takes him longer than he would like to admit before he finds it. hallasan. and suddenly he's gone, between a breath and the next like he was almost never there.
moving quickly, he finds himself at the base of the mountain, feet crunching over rock and grass. here, the storm rages heavy, thick with the feeling of magic and jinsung finds himself lost again as he begins to wander looking for the cause of all of this.

the summer night was sweltering and sticky, causing jinsung's shirt to stick to his skin in the most unpleasant of ways. the beach was empty around him, like it usually was this early in the morning a few hours before the sun is even due to rise. this is exactly what jinsung had been looking forward to.
he sinks down into the soft sand beneath him, taking his shoes off and leaving them in a small pile next to him. he leans back on his elbows, eyes closing as he takes in the sound of the crashing waves and the chirping crickets in the grass behind him. living in the clan house means there's no room for privacy, no quiet spot to get away and hide for a few moments of pure silence. and honestly it had only gotten worse in the last few weeks. jinsung isn't sure why but one of the older vampires seems to have taken a liking to him seemingly overnight. he's sure it's just some part of a larger game they're all playing. and honestly he doesn't care to want to learn anymore. he figures as long as he spends his free time out of the house, their attention will move on eventually.
taking a deep breath, he opens his eyes and takes in the sight of the moon hovering over him. nights like this reminds him of life before, a life where he felt constantly surrounded by friends and family and being alone had never crossed his mind. silences in their coven houses were quickly chased away with the sound of roaring laughter and the clinking of dishes over family meals.
biting his lip, jinsung sits up chasing away the phantom memories of happier times. it was in that moment, he for the first time he wasn't alone. there was someone in the waves ahead of him, struggling with the current. he didn't think, didn't hesitate, as he pushes himself in an instant darting ahead into the crashing waters in front of him. "hang on!" there's panic in his voice as jinsung dives into the ocean waters heading straight for the stranger. "i've got you!" he says as he wraps his arms around them and begins to pull them towards shore. it's difficult, fighting their flailing limbs and the swelling waves.
hey there! i'm the mun behind the emo vampire jinsung, sarai/rai (21+, she/her, EST).
here you'll find jinsung's profile and bio. i'm currently working on a plots page for him that'll be up soon. in the meantime, let's brainstorm!
below you'll find the usual info about him. feel free to like this post to plot and i'll come rolling into your ims.
jinsung was born as joonsa back in the early 1400's.
he was born as a witch into a very loving family in daegu. his coven spanned multiple generations and hailed back to the early days of korean's existence. they were well known in the surrounding villages for their work with healing potions, charms, and curses all for a pretty price.
his family had always been known for their history of powerful seers and healers. but jinsung, as their youngest son, had been born with the ability to speak to the spirits. but it wouldn't just stop at that, soon not only was he able to speak to the dead but able to bring those who have passed back to life. he terrified the members of his coven, but slowly over time they learned to accept it.
jinsung's coven hadn't always worked closely with hunters but it was a tentative truce struck up before jinsung was born. they supplied the hunters with potions of healing and strength and in return they were allowed to live in peace.
while their truce held up for many years, it would slowly come to an end on a sleepy snowy morning one winter. they were unprepared for the hunters who attacked their quiet little seaside village.
jinsung had been attacked and left to die in the snow. and he would have, if not for the vampire who crossed paths with him. rather than letting him pass on, the vampire decided to change him.
unlike most vampire makers, jin was left alone after that. he wandered for many years struggling with his vampiric nature and the loss of his magic. it wasn't long before he felt the familiar warmth magic enticing him to come to jeju where he's been ever since.
although he's a member of the vampire clan, he has no loyalty to them whether they know it or not. jin's rather untrusting and has butted heads with a lot of the clan members for his unwillingness to take on any vampire fledglings.
he poses as a university student and a barista working late nights. at first meeting, he's incredibly friendly and loves to make friends. the friendships don't last long or go anywhere though as he prefers to spend most of his time alone.
