Description

Kim Myungsoo works at a coffee shop, hates his job, and doesn’t even like coffee.

But he figures that he might just like Lee Sungjong.

-

In which Myungsoo is kind of a spastic idiot that believes in Greek Mythology, Sungyeol tries to be a helpful bro, and Sungjong is pretty much flawless.

Foreword

This is my entry for The Sky Is The Limit Writing Contest, Subround Four.

The prompts that I am (very loosely) following are:

I learn a great deal by merely observing you, and letting you talk as long as you please, and taking note of what you do not say. – T.S. Elliot

The truth is you could slit my throat and with my one last gasping breath, I’d apologize for bleeding on your shirt. –Taking Back Sunday

According to Greek Mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs, and two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate beings, condemning them to spend their lives to search of their other halves. - Plato

A/N: I LOVE COFFEE SHOP AU FICS. SO MUCH. And I've been thinking about writing one for a long time, so I thought it would be appropriate to end this contest with one of my favorite AU's eveeerrr. And OTP fluff because. Yeah. ;D (I don't expect anyone to have been following my entries to this contest, but this might be my favorite entry because every major character that I have written about for this contest makes an appearance in this, whether it is with a huge role or a supporting one. <3)

Chapter 1: Your story is fantastic, a work of art, it is so beautiful written. You can feel Myun's feelings ;I love that I observe him as a fan boy, I love than shy he is with him and that he to deny than is obvious to everyone, I love that he declares himself as a twins soul without the other hahaha I love him to be jealous and love his clumsiness when declares or clarity things. I love Jjongie, feel the same and give him the opportunity to be the one to declare himself,i love him to face him and not be left. In short, I love your story is perfect and your way of writing is beautiful and it reaches you. A ovation for this great piece of art.

Okay so this was wonderful. I generally really like coffee shop AU's bc i feel they have a really nice atmosphere or w/e, but this was beyond that 'generally good'. Idk how to explain how good i thought it was, so let me just say it was really, really great. (Oh and im sorry for not making any sense)
