Jinu: *looking over the lyrics of their diss track* *tries to sing some of lyrics* When your patterns start to show, I see a pain that lies below…
Beomseok: *knocks on his door* Jiji? You awake?
Jinu: Uhhh *looks at Miso* Yeah! In a second! *rushes to hide the lyric sheets and the card* *whispers to Miso and Jangan* You gotta go now!
Miso & Jangan: *start to sink into the floor, before Miso notices the knocked out trash bin* *trills softly at the sight*
Jinu: *opens the door to see his friend standing outside*
Beomseok: *has his arms crossed* *briefly glances into Jinu’s room before looking back at him* Whatcha up to?
Jinu: Uh, nothing. Just reviewing some lyrics. Um, do you want to come in?
Beomseok: *wordlessly walks in at the invitation, with a sense of familiarity at his friend’s room*
Jinu: *notices Miso struggling with the trash bin, hurriedly moves over to up the trash bin back up before Beomseok notices*
Beomseok: I heard you down the hall. Your voice seems to be better.
Jinu: Uh, yeah! Who would’ve thought? *quickly Miso’s paw over behind his bed, throwing a blanket over it* Guess those tonics were actually legit.
Beomseok: *picks up a lyric sheet that fell on the floor, seeing the crossed off lyrics* *turns to look at Jinu* Then, how come you’re changing the song?
Jinu: Uh… I… *holds the card behind his back, his grip tightening slightly* It’s just are you sure this is the right song? The right lyrics? They’re just so… hateful…
Beomseok: *raises an eyebrow* Um, yeah. Because we hate Gwi-Ma. And we hate demons.
Jinu: Yeah, but–
Beomseok: *starts pacing around his room* Okay, what is up with you lately? Talking to demons? Changing the lyrics? And that moment at the signing event with that demon girl–
Jinu: Rumi? *sees Miso’s tail poking up, and quickly stands in front of it to hide it* *sits down in his desk chair, holding the tail behind him along with the card*
Beomseok: Yeah, whatever her name is, what was that about? *pauses for a brief moment before his expression shifts to one of concern* Did something happen? You know you can talk to me, right? *uncertainty is evident in his voice, but so is his sincerity*
Jinu: I know. I know. *looks down* ... I'm sorry. Everything's just been... a lot lately.
Beomseok: *expression lightens up, but is still a bit concerned* *sighs softly, before sitting on Jinu's bed facing him* No, I'm sorry. I think everything is just getting to me too. *leans back, letting out a louder sigh* Man, I can't wait for everything to go back to normal and for all of those demons to be gone for good. Heh, right?
Jinu: *expression drops slightly* Yeah... gone for good. It'll be... perfect.
emotional pain and conflict is on the horizon. jinu’s mental health is definitely holding strong there at the end.
anyways, I really wanted to write these two in a scene together.
