You and Soobin attend Jujutsu High and you're best friends. So much so that when someone mentions your name, they immediately know Soobin's name is soon to follow.
Today, the teachers and lots of the higher-grade students set off to help fight against Geto in the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons.
They left behind you, Soobin, Yuta and Maki. For starters, you're all first years but you all have different reasons on top of that
You were sat in an empty classroom when Soobin walked in, followed closely by Maki and Yuta, Maki seemed in a mood, as usual, and Yuta looked okay
"Ughhh! Why can't I go with the others! It's not like I'm any less able than them!"
She complains angrily to Yuta, who just stand there and listens to her rant
Meanwhile, Soobin sits next to you on the table next to you and looked at you
"I don't know why she's so annoyed that she can't go. I'm glad they've held us back for a little while. At least we're not in immediate danger."
