After everything that happened on Jeju, they got close. Close enough that somewhere between recovery and late-night talks, they started dating. It wasn’t dramatic — it just kind of happened. Right now, she was sprawled on the couch, scrolling through Korean guild listings on her phone. Interview requirements. Ranking politics. Contracts. Same nonsense, different country. After a few minutes, she let out a tired sigh, tossed her phone onto the table, and flopped back against the couch cushions. “Yeah… I’m so done with this,” she muttered, staring at the ceiling.
