[ 9:45 P.M. // THE BONFIRE // LA PUSH BEACH ] ── ﹒ open to anyone ﹐
small context: jin made it to town around 5-7 prior to the bonfire happening, so he doesn't really know anyone except pet owners who have taken their pets to the vet within the last week and met the new vet at the clinic ( him ) - other than that, he's got no real connections in forks, so feel free to go on vibes/assume whatever.
the bonfire's cheerful mood had disappeared, replaced with shouts and panicked energy. jin didn't join the chaos, though. he didn't care to, he simply stood by the fire, a calm spot in the middle of the storm, watching it all unfold. he found the whole display... telling. this was the real nature of things and the slight smirk on his lips was a testament to how content he was to watch the pretense of peace fall apart. he set his untouched cup down with a slow, deliberate motion before turning to the nearest frantic group, his voice steady and clear enough to cut through the noise. "hysteria won't find her," he stated simply. "is there any kind of organized plan, or is everyone just running around in the dark?"
