In any, or at least most, other situation(s) Rumi would tease or say something about the cute network username. Now's not the time for that either.
Rumi's both surprised and so, so relieved, that he answers without her trying to contact him even more than that. And she takes the fact, that he shares his location to her like that as a sign, that he doesn't mind if she joins his company there. And also he's all alone there considering how they have their private meetings back home too. So instead of asking "Alone?" she leaves Jinu on read.
But she arrives there as fast as she can which is very soon considering how fast she is -- maybe a bit slower than one might expect from her if they knew her location considering -- everything else. Someone, anyone might see them here but she doesn't even care about unimportant things like that. At least the door closes itself once Rumi's on the roof too.
Rumi looks pale as a ghost, and so emotional and heartbroken like someone or something broke her into million pieces and she'll never be able to go back... He'll-- No. No, no, no, no, no, no. She wants him to be free and she has her plan, where he's supposed to be safe from anything too bad happening to him while they take down Gwi-ma.
No words which is extremely rare for her compared to how much she usually talks almost all the time.
Rumi walks to him with pretty fast steps. Maybe she'll punch. Maybe she'll kick his ass. Maybe she'll yell and do any of those things too!
Something that Jinu might not be expecting this time either despite how there was all of their cuddling and hugging because they had to do that to help each other with their freezing hearts? Throwback to their first private meeting back home with how he said he wasn't expecting a hug...
Well, this time he's getting an extremely tight and emotional hug. Mm, no, not a hug. More like an embrace where she buries her face into his clothes too and holds him tightly like she'll never ever let him leave from this world.

Jinu isn't exactly alone on the roof, since Derpy and Sussie were close by. The tiger looks up, watching Rumi when she arrives. He can sense the atmosphere is sad, but he gives them both space for now, content to just observe and keep watch for anyone.
It's easy to guess why Rumi was the way she was right now. Jinu does expect a punch, even a kick. Maybe Rumi would throw him off the roof for being stupid enough to die.
Instead she wraps her arms around him and buries her face into his clothes. Touch energy once again flows, making him feel warm. Slowly he wraps his own arms around her, at first just gently keeping them there, but emotions make him hold onto her tighter.
It's not like he ever expected a future. It's not like he expected a future with Rumi in particular.
But he has yearned for both, even if he shouldn't have. That he can't deny. So hearing he doesn't have either makes him lose the hope he had started to slightly reach out for.
Well, yes, of course Derpy and Sussie are there too. Rumi doesn't even count them to the word anyone since they're always everywhere with either him or her or both of them if they're in the same location. But besides them, there's no one else.
She really should punch him. She really should kick him. She really should yell at him for being a stupid idiot. She really should kick his ass and flip him to the ground and then throw him from the roof head first for being so stupid. Maybe that would knock some sense into this stupid jerk's head. Maybe she should have done all of that and more. It's not like he'd die if she did that here.
But she didn't come here to yell or fight.
Rumi holds herself mostly together even when Jinu wraps his arms around her so gently. Do you know how much she cries together with Mira and Zoey about well pretty much everything, Jinu? A lot and pretty easily, she can't even imagine how many emotional moments there will be between them now when they know the truth here and back home too. She's not like that around anyone else even though they show so many emotions including some tears to their fans too but that's an entirely different thing. There's maybe only about one tear until he holds her tighter too. That's what makes Rumi let her walls down when she can't stop her silent tears from happening anymore... Congrats for unlocking a new side of her. Again. Give her a moment, she'll collect herself soon enough. Don't be too surprised, she always seems like a really tough girl and leader but underneath that she's very sensitive too.
She wanted to set him free. For both his own future without Gwi-ma in it and also for her future together with him. She's yearning for that too, no matter how much she continues denying and hiding it.
[Guess who ate at Fortune Panda? Guess who opened a Fortune Cookie there? Guess whose Fortune Cookie had this text -- aka included here is a picture of a paper from a text found in a Fortune Cookie.
"It's about time you asked that special someone on a date."
Right. Even the cookies are doing that. Well, since she stopped being in denial and all and they decided to go for this whole dating thing for real. Because saying they'd try it would have been just more denial because as if she doesn't already know, that this is going to work perfectly... She's still nervous asking this for real for the first time.]
[Thank goodness this is texting because she has so many feelings about all of this too despite how it was her saying let's make the most out of our time here together and start going on real dates or something like that on that roof.]
Great, I'll gladly go on a date with you too.
Well, it's not like I'm nearly as busy here as I'm back home, so when would you like to go? I'm free whenever.
[ and once again she can't wait to see him again! And okay, she'll gladly go on any dates with him, not just on a date or just this one date with Jinu... this whole suddenly dating thing is... new, so many butterflies flying all over inside her.]
[They have some traditions/habits and one of them is sleeping into the new month in each other's arms. They're in his/their apartment at the moment instead of being in the one, that she shares with the Huntrix girls. Of course that one's also technically his or at least he is always welcome to spend time with her and them there too but it's amazing and important to have this here with him too. Well, at least until they'll get a house together.
Rumi cuddles closer in their embrace before she gives some soft, sweet and gentle kisses to Jinu as they are both waking up there.]
Still here.
[She smiles against his lips and holds him even tighter.]
[Jinu really enjoys waking up like this. Starting the month knowing straight away the most important person of his life is still here, by his side. Jinu kisses her forehead, hair and even lips as they wake up.]
[This is Rumi's favorite way to wake up and she really enjoys this too. Of course it means checking that Mira and Zoey are still here too but that's fine whenever she'll have brain cells for that because right now they're all on more time with Jinu. No surprise there.]
And we'll make sure it stays that way.
[Can she get more kisses? She's going to get so, so many, many more, it's like saying good morning with a make out.]
[It's the perfect way to begin the day. Though as they get lazier with the makeout session, considering it was still early morning, Jinu brings something up. It's been... difficult to decide when to talk about it but now seems like a good time.]
What if... we have something that will let both of us know we're still in the same world even if we're not close like this?
[One of her favorite ways to start any day with Jinu. Or possibly her favorite, luckily she doesn't have to decide a favorite from all the perfect ways... And speaking of perfect, she listens to him, cuddling closer and nuzzling to his face.]
Then that would be perfect and I'd want it to us. Which reminds me, I tried to get The Red String Rings but he said he doesn't have them at the moment, so I couldn't get them to us.
[a few kisses all over his face like she just can't stop, won't stop.]
[Rumi's not really sure how late it is when she arrives to Jinu's part of their home. It may still be December 30th, it may also be the last day of the year already. It doesn't even matter.
She's late. They were supposed to meet earlier. He probably saw her and Zoey talking from literally any window and figured something came up and also that Rumi would show up whenever she can...
Well, she's here now and she looks sad. Understatement. Sad, depressed, like there is another reason why she may be even more in pieces... She could have teleported here. Usually she does whenever she knows she is late, no matter how small the distance may be. She didn't trust it this time.]
Sorry... I know... We were supposed to meet.
[Struggling with words. Typical. She swallows and wraps Jinu into a tight embrace, letting just being able hold him calm her down even a little.]
Mira...
[a long pause, deep breath, still another long pause after that between telling herself to get it together and not just leave it at that. It could be anything because anything could happen here.]
[She keeps him in a very tight embrace and as close to herself as possible at the concert as it gets closer and closer to midnight.
More things that she can do now when she has a boyfriend.
Almost midnight. Just a few minutes more... She can't stop smiling at Jinu, trying to have at least some restraint here even though it's so, so tempting to kiss him even before the clock hits midnight.
Buuuuuuuuuut she waits. Patiently. Well, "patiently". She almost feels like an excited puppy or something.
Come on, come on, come oooooonnnn. These are the longest minutes of their entire relationshiiiiiiiiipppp... (jfc Rumi)
When the midnight finally, finally, finally hits, she kisses him and completely forgets that the rest of the world or anything else even exists when she gets all into that kiss. This better not be just a tiny soft and short kiss, not after all of that waiting.]
[It sure does feel like forever. Probably anything he's waited for during the 400 years he's been alive. It's a strange, but at the same time an exciting feeling.
Feelings he never thought he would experience, but this place and Rumi have both made it possible. He will be forever grateful for both.
Jinu could be cruel and make a tiny soft kiss, but he doesn't want to. So the kiss can last for however long they want - or however long Rumi can handle before she needs to breathe.]
[Yeah. It will last for as long as it takes for Rumi to seriously need air here because she just can't get enough and every kiss always makes her want even more of them with him.
And even then, after that kiss finally ends to her being pretty out of breath, Rumi keeps her lips very close to his to steal all the tiny kisses too.]
Happy New Year, my love.
[More smiling at him, looking at Jinu like he means the world and everything else to her because he still does and more tiny kisses too. And more hugging! Still the happiest girl ever with him and that's never ever going to change.]
[Jinu enjoys the closeness, making sure their noses touch too. It's the little things than make him even happier and even more loved. It was a warm and fuzzy feeling he was really still getting used to it.]
Happy New Year... I love you, too. I'm so happy we've come this far.
