WEDNESDAY — [ LOCATION : ITAEWON ]

Wake up. Go to class. Don't die. Save the day. Don't die, with emphasis. Go home. Eat. Sleep; rinse and repeat.

It's more of a simplified routine curated as soon as you had made the ultimate decision of becoming one of Seoul's designated heroes; fighting crime right after rushing out of last period, patrolling the city during slower days where the lawless aren't as rampant. There were times where you would even assist people in need of a helping hand, whether it was to help an elderly cross the street or give directions to anyone who looked unfamiliar with the place; big or small, you were always happy to help.

In between the seams of your routine, you've allotted some time for yourself to hang around until you were called in to assess whatever disturbance there was in the city and that usually involved you accessing the rooftops of long abandoned buildings.

That's where you find yourself right now, overlooking the bustling streets on top of a building that fit the description as you sat on the old school balustrade that encompassed the non-accessible rooftop, simply waiting for that anticipated distress call while you entertain yourself by absentmindedly scrolling through whatever social media application that earned your attention.

Time was lost to you at this point. You had a vague idea that it was probably some time in the late afternoon as you observed the warm hued sky in mild interest before your phone vibrated.

Sunny 💖 [4:25 PM]: classes ended early for meeee 😎

It's embarrassing how quick it took for a smile to find its way onto your face. If anyone were here to witness you curl into yourself in giddy excitement as you made a series of incoherent high-pitched noises, it was likely for them to claim you had hearts in your eyes as you eagerly opened the text notification and they won't be exactly wrong about it.

You've long accepted that Sunoo just had that great of an effect on you; anything he did of bare minimum was guaranteed to have you clawing at your walls like some deranged animal.

While you do feel some remorse for putting that kind of burden onto Sunoo, you couldn't help but huff out a short laugh as you picture the pout pulling at his lips, mulling over his food choices. Sunoo looked rather adorable whenever he was in a sulky state. Getting you to eat wasn't that hard of a task. You found joy in eating anything that was readily available to you and your roommate, so on most occasions, he took charge of that decision.

However, since you actually cared about Sunoo's thoughts and feelings (more than you should, actually), you might as well list down some options that would appeal to him to save some time. You always end up being extra hungry after work anyways. Having super powers also meant you burned through your energy reserves quicker than the average human, so it's better to have something ready for you when you get home and plenty. With that goal in mind, you immediately went to think of an appropriate enough reply to narrow down possible choices of food to stuff your face with later.

But before you could even attempt to message him back with the formulated response, a beeping sound in your ears went off, courtesy of the mandatory in-ear comms. piece the agency required every hero to wear for easy communication.
