Summary
Three’s the charm, right? Jisung’s fingers hovered over the screen, eyes fixed on the number for a good few minutes. His thumb lingered over the call button, numb with hesitation, before he tapped in.
„ Did you know elephants purr like cats?” He blurted as soon as the call connected, giving the person no time to greet him.
„ Do they?” A man’s voice replied, intrigued. “Are we talking a house cats or wild cats?”
Every night, before his feet slipped past the railing, teetering on the edge, Jisung called Minho.

Tugs at them heartstrings a little without permanent heartbreak. My type of angsty fic.

Summary
“So getting divorced costs like...” Jisung’s face scrunches up as he does the math, his nose wrinkling adorably, “hundred-forty times more than getting married? That’s insane. That’s a scam. Someone should investigate.”
They sit in silence, both staring at the unsigned papers. Someone drops a cup at the counter, the crash startling several patrons. Outside, rain starts pattering against the window, drops racing each other down the glass.
“What if,” Jisung says slowly, carefully, like he’s testing out how the words sound, rolling them around in his mouth, “we just... don’t get divorced right now?”
Or: The five-day marriage that lasted five years (and counting).

Summary
“Good luck breaking the news to your family that we’re not really dating.”
“Well…” Jisung drums his fingers on the steering wheel. “What if I didn’t?”
Minho blinks. “You’re not suggesting—”
“You’d have a place to stay for free, as long as you want,” Jisung interjects quickly. “Free food, anything you need. I’ll set you up with Hyunjin. My parents—did you see how happy they were for me? My mom already loves you! If we just… just go along with it, a-at least until Christmas, everyone’s happy, right?”
(in which lonely novelist Minho falls for Jisung through a dating app and flies across the country to surprise him for the holidays—only to find out Jisung looks nothing like his photos. Minho lets himself become trapped in a web of lies, somehow growing dangerously fond of his catfisher-slash-fake-boyfriend along the way.)

Summary
When Minho first meets Jisung, he’s been given six months to live.
“Could be a year, if he’s lucky,” says Chan, the man who answers the door for Minho and introduces himself as Jisung’s best friend.
Jisung, the tiny, wisp of a thing sitting in a wheelchair with a pink beanie on his head and a green knit blanket covering his lap, smiles mildly. “Channie’s an optimist,” he says. He waits until the other man walks into a different room to add, “I’ve never been lucky.”
(Or: Jisung is dying. Minho gets hired as his death doula.)

Bookmarker's Notes
Less heartbreaking than Brighter Days (or maybe I just got better at not crying) but still much angst and beautiful use of repetitive motifs.
I love the canon details

Summary
“Are you from around here?” Minho asked, the food on his tray still untouched. He had been watching Jisung intently while the others talked and noticed more things about him that seemed familiar.
Jisung turned to face Minho and nodded.
“Yeah. Well...kind of. I grew up here and there, but I did live in this town as a child and then came back in my late teens.”
“And as a child, did you live in the big block of flats on the edge of town?” Minho asked quickly.
Jisungʼs furrowed his eyebrows and looked at Minho suspiciously. “I- I did. How did you know?”
Minho swallowed, voice shaky as he said “because I lived there too. I think we might have known each other as kids.”
** ** **
Minho and Jisung knew each other for a few months when they were both children. Now as adults, they find themselves working in the same school, Minho as a Maths teacher and Jisung as a guidance counsellor.

Summary
Minho laughs and Jisung hears him typing something on his keyboard. A new chat message appears. “Here you go, a gift to remember me by.” That smile appears in his voice again. “Let’s talk later. Bye, Hannie.”
> leebit has left Group Voice Chat.
> leebit: (XXX-XXX-XXXX)Jisung blinks. Is that… a phone number? Did he just… get a cute boy's phone number playing Overwatch?

Summary
Jisung finds that with night time, he loses a lot of his common sense. Not in the sense that he does anything risky or harmful, but that he becomes curious about things he would never be interested in during the day time. The most recent example of this was anime fanfiction and, well, look at him now. So it can't really be blamed on him when, at the ungodly hour of 2:15am, he starts searching for idol fanfiction. Technically, it's Changbin's fault for putting the idea in his head to begin with.
Or, Han Jisung is a completely straight, heterosexual man.

One of the first fics I read, memorable, needs rereading

Summary
“No,” Minho sighs, regretting what he's about to reveal before he’s even revealed it, but he knows it has to get to his little gaggle of gays sooner rather than later. “We’re just sleeping together.”
Felix nearly spits out his water. “What?!” he yells as best he can through his coughing fit. “And the world didn’t implode?”
“Like not just in the same bed?” Hyunjin chirps in, eyes wide. “Like dicks in ass and everything?” Minho just sighs again and looks up at the ceiling. Maybe he should have just kept this in forever.
“Well I guess we know what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object,” Seungmin deadpans, sliding over on his wheelie chair before stopping perfectly in the center of the doorway. “They fuck.”
(OR: Minho and Jisung have slept with everyone except each other. Until that changes. No feelings attached, of course.)

Summary
Minho is no longer mad at his stupid friends for making him partner with the stranger. He was already a little less mad once he actually laid eyes on Jisung, considering the fact that he is the most beautiful person on the entire planet, but now that the game is about halfway through, he's also confident he's going to ask Jisung to come back next week.
They haven't missed a question yet. Anytime Minho doesn't know the answer, Jisung does, and vice versa. It's like they're a match made in heaven.
or, Jisung and Minho win a free cruise. And then a lot of other things, too.

Summary
Minho rubbed Jisung's thigh with one hand and reached for the condom with the other. “How do you like it?”
Jisung shrugged. “I’ve never done this before.”
“Wait.” Minho yanked back. “What?”
“I’ve never done this before,” Jisung repeated.
“Like, with a guy?”
Jisung shook his head. “With anybody.”
Minho groaned. He started crawling off the bed.
“I am not taking your virginity right now.”
The guy who refuses to have sex with Jisung because he's a virgin turns out to be inextricably connected to his friend group. Awesome.

“If we’re doing this, we need written rules,” he said, spelling out “Rule Number One:” on the paper in front of him.
“Rules?” Minho asked, sounding confused.
“Yes, rules.”
“What kind of rules?”
Or Jisung’s broken heart leads him to make an arrangement with his mysterious classmate Minho. He believes everything will work out, as long as neither of them breaks the rules.

Minho teaching Jisung to love himself… and consent is so sexy
-
Tags
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."
