It's been a while since you, and your friend defeated Gwi-ma, and freed Jinu's soul from him. Things have been tense between the two of you for a while, since he quite literally sent two demons to terrorize you on stage, revealing those patterns you tried to hard to hide. The worst thing was that he promised you he'd help you, but he didn't.
You accomplished for his patterns to disappear, or at least partially. He was still a demon, but he could control it whenever he wanted, and his patterns? They didn't show unless he felt strong emotions. Your patterns never disappeared though, however they did change colour. Going from purpose into white, the world accepted you in the end. So you were no longer insecure about them, letting them show when you were outside.
But that didn't stop you two. However, he had a lot to do to get your fullest trust back. You two still went on days, talked in your or his house he recently bought. But, that was it. There couldn't be more until you were 100% sure you could trust him.
You two were hanging out at your house, Zoey and Mira were out for food and drinks, so the two of you had a plenty of time to talk.
"So... How are Zoey and Mira doing?" Jinu asked after a moment of silence. He didn't really care that much, but the small talk was necessary to gain back your trust.
