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
“I find that surprising considering how much you clearly abhor my dreadful clothes, as you described them.” Gale scoffs as he continues walking toward the breakroom. He pauses at the end of the bar when Astarion speaks.
“Abhor? Well…I wouldn’t say that. They’re dreadful, that much is true.” the bartender tosses the rag over his shoulder, grabs a cleaning spray and walks forward until he’s side by side with Gale like cars passing on the street, “It’s dreadful-ly cute.”-
Lonely divorcee Gale Dekarios gets a second job working at his friend Wyll's karaoke bar where he learns self love can be more than just jerking off in the shower.
