Summary
“Hyung…” Seungmin sighs. It’s a fight he’s going to lose, he can see that. But it feels so wrong, displacing Minho like this because of his own stupidity.
“We can share it,” Minho says, rolling his eyes. “Would that make you feel better?”
It would be bizarre to climb under the covers with someone he barely knows. People do it all the time, stumbling home late at night with a stranger, nervous and trying to keep quiet, not wake up the household. They get undressed, they get into bed, and so on…But this isn’t that. It would almost be easier if it was. The expectations would be clear. It wouldn’t be an imposition because Seungmin would be giving something back. Here, though, Minho isn’t asking him to reciprocate generosity. He’s not letting him.
“Okay,” Seungmin says.
・・・
Or: Seungmin suspects the life he's lived is not the life that was intended for him. So, he flies to South Korea to see what things would've been like had he never left. Everything changes once he meets Lee Minho.

Summary
"If you could do anything," Jisung continues. "No consequences. What would you do?"
"I would kiss you,” Minho says.
"You can.”
"I can't."
“I can keep a secret, Minho,” Jisung says, leaning over the center console, taking up Minho’s space because he knows how much Minho likes Jisung taking up his space.
ෆ
Or: Jisung is a university senior running from what happened last semester. Minho is his older, crush-worthy professor who makes for a mind-numbing distraction.

Summary
Minho was silent for a few beats. Over the radio, a man was crooning about his lost love.
“You don’t want more out of a marriage?”
It was Jisung’s turn to laugh. “What more is there to ask for?”
“Attraction,” Minho’s voice sounded odd, almost reluctant. “Intimacy. You really find him…satisfactory?”
What did Minho know about him, or love, for that matter, anyway? And what right did he have to ask if Seungmin was satisfactory? It wouldn’t be his marriage. It was already hardly his family.
God damn Minho, Jisung thought, for being so cagey. Mysterious.
Unfortunately, if there was one thing he couldn’t resist, it was a mystery.

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
Jeongin has always known he’ll be married to an offworlder and end up settled far away from home. Sedaora Selene I is nothing like his own planet, with its lush jungles and warm climate. A moon orbiting a gas giant, the homeworld of his new fiance is cold and grey and worships a god with no face, its surface covered by a black, choppy ocean that never settles. Selene I’s grim and strange reputation far precedes it, but Jeongin has gotten no other offers and no longer has a choice. At least Prince Chan seems kind, and is near enough to Jeongin in age.
Minho has been betrothed to the omega son of his father’s closest advisor, Felix, since he was eight and Felix was merely five. As the only child of the Dityodos, expectation and duty weighs as heavily on Minho as his crown. He and Felix are the darlings of Selene I, a match blessed by the Maker himself. With his cousin, Chan, now finally betrothed and soon to be wed, it will not be long before Minho, too, is expected to make good on the promise his father made sixteen years ago.
And then Chan comes back with his new intended in tow, sun-kissed and vibrant. Jeongin is a perfect match for Chan in every way. But that does not stop Minho's head from turning.
