Summary
Felix revels in the close contact until Chan buries his nose in Felix’s hair and takes the most dramatic, deep inhale. It’s like he’s trying to see if he can suck up Felix’s hair with his nose to tickle his brain.
“Are you smelling me?”
“You smell nice,” Chan says, taking another exaggerated sniff. Felix can’t really imagine how he’d smell nice, after a day out dancing followed by a restaurant visit. Felix pulls his sleeve to his face to see what Chan is talking about. He gets a nose full of smokey, meaty, fried cotton, under it lingers the scent of Chan’s detergent. “I smell like barbecue.”
“Yeah, like I said,” He buries his nose in Felix’s shoulder. “Nice.”

Summary
Chan had a history of clinging to things only when he risked losing them. It wasn’t healthy, but lots of things about him weren’t healthy. If an old shirt developed a hole, he wore it for a week straight before finally throwing it in the trash. It used to make Felix laugh, make him unbearably fond.
He wondered how long he had left being clung to, the old shirt that Chan was on the verge of throwing away. He wondered if it would hurt more to be cut off entirely, or if this agonising lingering was worse.

Summary
“i’m sure that well practiced depressing spiel makes a lot of sense in your emotionally constipated nonsense world, but i’ve had my anti-psychotics dosage upped and i’ve been doing two therapy sessions a week, and i have a boyfriend, and i’m here to tell you that doesn’t track. it sounds more like you’re—” jisung blinks at him, eyes going wide and concerned before he smiles, weirdly stiff.
“it doesn’t matter. since he’s straight, and you think he’s cool, and you’re just being friendly, then i’m not saying anything else. just be careful.” he says it the way he always says it, like he already knows it’s a safe bet to assume felix isn’t going to listen to him.
“i’ll be careful.”
he doesn’t know why he bothers with the lie.
