Summary
From closer, it’s clear that Minho is about his age. He’s handsome— very much so— in an untouchable sort of way. Straight nose, sharp eyes, a defined cupid’s bow. He looks sculpted rather than born. Jisung might shrink under the weight of his presence if the situation were different.
Knowing that Minho is dying ruins the illusion of perfection.
Jisung answers an ad online reading: "I'm going to die, but there's a lot of things I haven't done yet that I don't want to do alone."

Summary
“There are two rooms, and the lodge is more than big enough for two adults. We’re both relatively sane, which is always a bonus. You couldn’t murder me, though it’d be fun to see you try, and I promise I’ll try not to murder you.” Minho blinked guilelessly, apparently at the end of his speech. “Stay.”
-
When Jisung arrives at his vacation house to find it double booked, his options are to return home, tail tucked between his legs, or learn to cohabit with the handsome, enigmatic stranger already occupying the lodge.

Summary
“I’m calling from the Seoul National Medical Centre. We have you listed here as the emergency contact for a Han Jisung. Do I have the right person?”
(Three years ago, Minho broke Jisung's heart with a single phone call. It's ironic then, that the universe decides to return the favour.)

Summary
“Okay,” Jisung finally says, face splitting into a wide smile. One that still feels a bit dusty but he remembers all the same.
“That’s all it took?” Minho laughs, and it's high and sweet. Not sinister at all. Not even a trickster, just a man on a mission. Determination running rampant through him. “I was ready to beg.”
Jisung is almost one hundred percent sure there is no way he will ever be able to transmute what Minho wants him to, but he’ll cross that bridge when he gets there. For now, he will wade in the joy, the feeling of something new approaching him for the first time ever.
“So, where are we going?” Jisung asks, unable to keep the excitement from his voice. “Hell?”
“Worse,” Minho shudders. “Palm Springs.”
(OR: Minho is on a cross-country mission to rescue his brother, and Jisung might be the only magic user who can help him. It’s the road trip of a lifetime.)

Summary
“Jisung frowns. There’s no one who would be appearing like this, out of nowhere. He checks his phone, to make sure no one’s messaged him, but he doesn’t have any notifications. Baffled, he goes to the door and peers at the intercom.
There, on the tiny LCD screen, is Lee Minho.”
Or, a year after the group is forced to disband, Minho turns up at Jisung’s door, bringing with him an injury and their unfinished business.
Translation available in Russian.

Summary
Jisung wants Minho to be his new hobby. Learning each tick and hum. The way his bones creak and his breath tumbles from his lips. He wants to become an expert.
He thinks Minho could be the hobby that sticks. The thing that will finally stop the clock on his humiliating, slow demise— his deterioration into nothing but soil, and dirt, and the dust of flower petals that never grow correctly.
He’ll have to see.
(OR: Jisung is saving himself for his step-brother; Minho is home for the summer.)

Summary
In a way, Chan had applied for this position—and taken it—as a test of his own patience. As a measure of how much he could take; he’ll bend, and bend, and bend, but will he break? There is often no hot water in the dorms. No Internet, no phone service. He spends most of his waking hours slightly damp from the rain or from the river, shivering. Blisters, calluses, mosquito bites. He hasn’t had any chocolate in three weeks. But he can take it. All of that is fine. He tolerates it: bends, but does not break. He’s proud of himself for how well he can take it.
However, it’s not like the limit does not exist. It very much exists, and its name is Hyunjin.

Summary
“Why didn't you tell me?” Jisung asks softly.
“That my marriage was falling apart?” Minho speaks so glibly, like it’s no big deal; like he’s talking about bad weather or heavy traffic.
Jisung groans, a little annoyed that this is how his concern is being met; but then he pulls back and considers—this is just how Minho is. How Minho always has been. He doesn’t like when people fuss over him, and he prefers keeping his problems to himself. Back in the day, Jisung knew how to penetrate his walls; he wants to think that he still does.
“Who wants to talk about a failing marriage, Jisung-ah?” Minho sighs. “We hardly see each other as it is—I’d rather have fun when we meet up. Wouldn’t you?”
in which: Jisung and Minho reconnect after Minho ends his marriage, and long buried memories, feelings, emotions, come bubbling up to the surface.

Summary
It’s been a long time since Minho has met anyone new. Since he’s had to get to know someone. He doesn’t remember how to make small talk—but, honestly, considering Jisung was teasing him about getting stroked off by Seungmin earlier, haven’t they blown right past small talk? Minho opens his mouth to ask Jisung something, but before whatever inane question he still hasn’t decided on can start to form, Jisung beats him to it: “If you could go anywhere tonight, where would you go?”
“I thought you were just taking me to your place.”
“I’m a total fucking stranger, man. I could be taking you anywhere. To kill you.”
“You’re not a stranger,” Minho points out placidly, shrugging. “I know your middle name.”
—
P206: On the eve of his wedding, Minho is enchanted by cater-waiter Jisung—and all the possibilities he represents for a different (better?) life.

“Why do you I tell you to do things? Why did I tell you to go outside today?”
“Because you don’t trust me to take care of myself,” is Jisung’s response—mulish and quick, despite the tremble to his words, still on the verge of tears.
“Try again,” Changbin tells him, even if it is true. Jisung can’t take care of himself, not right now, so Changbin’s doing it for him.

“How do you know we’re going the same direction, anyway?”
“I’m a witch,” the stranger says simply. “Duh.”

Summary
Would Minho have sex with him? Would he want to? The thought turns Jisung’s stomach. He doesn’t want Minho to get the wrong idea about why he comes here, why he’s meeting up with him.
“I’m straight,” he blurts, without prompting, heartbeat heavy in his fingers, his cheeks, behind his eyes.
Minho twists around so that the chains of his swing are crossed, staring Jisung dead on with his eyebrows raised. “Um. Okay? I’m not trying to sleep with you.”
Shame burns deep in Jisung’s insides, through the cavity of his chest, between his bones. “I–I know,” he stutters. “I’m–” swallowing back bile, something sharp. “Sorry, I don’t know why I said that.”

Seungmin bares his teeth. Obedient, boyish.
Eager, Minho hopes.
Minho runs his thumb over the front of Seungmin’s teeth. One, two, three, four across. Down. Pressing against the flat of his bottom canine gently. No braces. Just tooth. Fit together, neatly. Fit into his mouth, neatly. “They look good.”

Summary
"Are you still nervous?" Minho asks, retaining that addictive nonchalance to his voice.
Jisung releases a pathetic little laugh between his gritting teeth. “Yeah,” he breathes out. “Just a little bit.”
"Let me smoke you out, then."
Jisung makes the mistake of letting his curious gaze wander, allowing a mesmerized "How?" to escape him. He's done the moment their eyes meet, because then Minho's taking Jisung's jaw in his hand while the other holds what's left of his blunt, dark eyes trailing down to the lips he wants to coax apart.
"Open for me."
