Junpei reminded Shiraishi a little bit of Yanagi, tbh. If Yanagi swallowed a bitter pill at some point. The whole 'jaded law enforcement' thing, but the good heart and despite all the grump and harshness there was that real desire to do good and do "the right thing" and help people. Bless. The whole cliche of "seeing the darkness of humanity/having his faith wrecked in some way" but also still wanting to do good by people and help everyone and failing wasn't acceptable, etc, etc. It was oddly familiar, and make Junpei a little easier to approach with the base logic of treating him like he would Yanagi to a point and adjusting for the differences.
That being said, Junpei fell into that old "not asking the right questions" a fair bit as well. And didn't quite understand him in the same way Yanagi did, but expecting that would be expecting too much so he as fine just rolling with it.
But he liked that frankness, and it was useful to have someone around to bounce ideas and theories off of. Sex wasn't terrible either, and Junpei wasn't interested in making it more than just something clinical, which worked for Shiraishi. Hopefully hell get over that whole trauma of abandoning a whole group of them to become demons sooner rather than later, and keep an eye on Tamamo! :D
