    Summary

    Jinu told me not to. He doesn’t want us to get close is written on the note.

    Baby’s eyes narrow. “He doesn’t, huh?” He asks. On the one hand, tagging along on someone else’s date, one with a demon hunter, no less, is not how Baby wants to spend his time in the human realm.

    On the other hand, he does like to piss Jinu off.

    (or, after being asked out on a date by zoey, mystery employs the help of baby as his wing man.)

    Summary

    The bathhouse ambush follows the same old script, the same old plot.

    He changes it up, just a tad. Rumi holds out her sword to him, both of them circling each other in a dance, and Jinu decides screw it.

    He steps forward, she prepares for war, but the tip of her sword touches his chest, right where his heart should be. The sword glows and crackles, reacting to him, pulsing in time with his breath; Rumi’s eyes dart to it then back on Jinu, wide and unsure.

    He smiles. “Hey Rumi, what am I supposed to do?”

    And then he walks into her blade. It pierces him true, and he relishes holding her, if only for a mere fraction of a second, their time limited.

    Just when things start to fade away, he hears it, barely: “J-Jinu?”


    Rumi’s single word keeps echoing in his head, all he can hear. She shouldn’t have known his name yet. She shouldn’t have that gentle a tone yet.


    Every time Jinu dies, he's flung back in time to right after the first Soda Pop performance. Why and how, he knows not. All he knows is Rumi is there with his soul each and every time.

    Summary

    “Do demons get internet connection in hell? Have you been making trips up here just to file for credit cards and get verified on TikTok?”

    “Is this really what you want to waste this interrogation on?” Jinu asks dubiously, gaze flitting between each of them in turn. “I thought you wanted real information.”

    “You’re a pretty bad hostage,” Rumi points out. “You’re not supposed to be keeping us on track.”

    “Oh, sorry, I didn’t realize there was unspoken hostage etiquette nowadays.”

    “Don’t play the ‘four hundred years old’ card, you just admitted to knowing how modern life works.”

    “Give me a break, I didn’t ask to be kidnapped!”

    “You weren’t trying all that hard to get away—”

    “You’re unnaturally strong—”

    Or: Huntrix is really good at taking hostages, the Saja Boys demonstrate exemplary problem-solving skills, and Jinu has A Night.

    Summary

    An unexpected tragedy in Robin's life leads to a strange arrangement to keep her in Hawkins: namely, a marriage of convenience between herself and Steve Harrington.

    ~

    “Nancy. Steve and I don’t engage in anything that could remotely be construed as romantic.”

    “I saw you sitting in his lap and feeding him pizza with your bare hands last weekend.”

    “What’s a little lap-sitting and pizza-sharing between friends?” she says dismissively.

    “Not the norm.” She shakes her head. “If you’re really just friends, that’s fine, but I’m worried Steve won’t see it that way, and, well… I don’t want you to break his heart.”

    “Not a heartbreaker,” Robin promises. “It’s sweet, though, you looking out for him.”

    “Funny how it seems like we keep trying to set each other up with him,” Nancy offers to lighten the mood. “I guess neither of us really know what he needs.”

    “I guess,” Robin says tightly, but she’s pretty sure she’s known what he needs since that night in the bathroom. She’s pretty sure he does too.
