The dungeon is in Korea, but as an esper with a pretty specialised power niche Haru is used to occasionally having to go international for these dungeons, and the fact that he already speaks Korean is definitely a bonus. The espers he's going to be working with are all in Quasar Guild, which is the largest one in Korea and which has just recently acquired a very powerful teleportation esper, one whose power can be stored in batteries Quasar also happened to already have in its possession, so they're covering the teleportation cost for Haru to get there.

traceless
is that the entirety of your adorable homework or do you also need to convince me to take tango lessons or something
this_peculiar_power
Well I also had to write down my thoughts and feelings prior to, during, and after asking
Most of that work was in the "prior to" part though
this_peculiar_power
Well the writing down part wasn't her exactly, she asked me to pay attention to those feelings then tell her about them next session
But there is absolutely no way I'd remember them without writing them down
Not to mention that they'd have wiggled out if I'd given them any space to
traceless
they do that.
what was this homework meant to help with, I've got a mental image of Dr. Park going to her friend in the fancy restaurant industry later for a kickback but presumably that is not it
this_peculiar_power
No but it's
A bit complicated
I have like twenty or thirty pages of notebooking about it
He is NOT embarrassed. He's NOT. He isn't. He is fixing his brain and the way he's doing that is by asking his Haru to go to a fancy restaurant with him in a kimono and that's an amazing way to fix one's brain honestly he's glad there's such low-hanging fruit.

oh okay that's less alarming and/or indicative about your wordiness
you have been thinking for two weeks about fancy restaurant dates??
this_peculiar_power
The fancy restaurant date was sort of downstream of other stuff
Though it was being used metonymously a lot
About the issues I have with wanting things and asking for them
traceless
I assume if you had homework to tell me about any of this you'd go into more detail and I should mind my own business?
this_peculiar_power
She actually suggested I tell you about my feelings too
If I thought it would help
It's just that they're a bit embarrassing to summarise and the less embarrassing less summarised version is thirty pages long
But if you're in the mood for reading through your boyfriend's unedited stream of consciousness I can send you it
You just have to promise you won't hold it against me, especially the parts where the evil Haru that lives inside my head tries to pretend to speak for you
this_peculiar_power
He is nondescript so you may headcanon him that way
Heeeeee'll scan through his notes quickly. "Restaurant" does find most of it, and "teenage" "date" "fantasy" manage to catch the rest. Alright send go.
this_peculiar_power
Well they are lots of pages!
...but he's, like. Actually fine? Probably in large part because he thinks he comes off as cool and smart and self-improving. Also in part because laying his soul bare for Haru to see actually feels really nice? He's glad he's at least not a hypocrite re. mental privacy.
Anyway it's alright, he'll occupy himself with catching up on some of the studying statistics he kind of let fall by the wayside.
this_peculiar_power
I would greatly welcome hugs
Honestly the texting wasn't even really necessary
That last bout of notebooking prior to messaging you made me kind of not need it anymore

Haru pops into the room and deposits himself in Jaeha's lap. "The me with a goatee is a jerk and you shouldn't rewrite your brain for him at all. Only me, I'm very responsible with this power."

"Yes he is. He keeps popping up. It's—honestly part of why it was so reassuring, that time you let me feel your feelings. He doesn't feel like that."
