Jonghyun as a bartender is perfect. I love the idea of being a bartender too. I plan on getting a part time job as it in college :) You wrote the mindset of a bartender pretty well. I was always fascinated of what went on in their heads during their job. But anyways, I'm glad you didn't make this a one shot. I can't wait for how their relationship builds up. And Key seems so ~mysterious~ and interesting. I love this plot ♥

btw bartender Jonghyun totally reminds me of this ;D

[intricateorchid]

Yeah, I'm planning to also. xD
(Except I'm not big on cigarette smoke and such, so I don't know how that's gonna work out.)
Good luck on becoming a bartender! ;)
If I happened to make this into a one shot, it would be over 7000 words. So I just decided to split it up. :D
And don't worry, Key isn't as ~mysterious~ as he seems. Or at least, he won't be anymore. (I hope I'm not hinting at anything.)

WHOA. That's what I imagined Jonghyun would look like! Where the heck did you find this?! xD

And as always, thanks for reading and commenting, dear. ♥

Aww cute. I dunno if that's quite the right way to describe it, but I thought it was very cute xP Especially when Key was so teasing and cocky at first and then blurts out his trouble the moment he gets drunk lol.

And the Love Potion thing...<3

Jonghyun as a bartender=win >3

[intricateorchid]

Don't worry, I think "cute" is a fine way to describe it. :P
It was hard trying to figure out what type of drunk Key might be. I figured this would be best. xD

The Love Potion doesn't exist (or at least, not when I researched it) so don't go to bars and start ordering them! ;D
It's a drink that only Jonghyun knows how to make, hahaha.

:)
Thanks for reading and commenting! ♥

"“Let’s just say, typical drinkers of White Zinfandel aren’t exactly straight.”
Silence.
“Who said I was?”
Oh."
NICE MOVE JONGHYUN! XD -laughing-
This is really interesting :) Like the thought of Jonghyun being a bartender, and I think he pulls it off pretty well ^^
It really sounds like Jonghyun is an experienced bartender, makes me so excited XD
And Key, lol. So cocky and I totally love it.
Drunk people always tend to blurt out more than they probably meant to say XD
I will follow this :)
<3 ~~

[intricateorchid]

Believe me, I would be really embarrassed too if I were him. xD

Honestly, I was gonna make Key as the bartender first. But then I realized his personality wasn't that great for the job, so. Yes. I'll end it there. :D

Awww, thank you so much!! ♥

And thanks for reading and commenting. :)

That was amazing, it was just so set and I can't way for you to continue it~ :D I like how you said you did some research on the drinks and such, I would have done the same thing. It's probably a bar-tending thing after a while of experience to be able to just know a person by a drink.

I'd really love to read on how their relationship develops! I'd have to ask, if the rating gonna go higher on this one, or stay the same? ;)

[intricateorchid]

I will, I will. ;D
Yep. I have a whole set of notes on drinks and things like that. There were a lot of different sources, but it was funny because the bartenders pretty much said the same thing about a lot of drinks. Some of them say that White Zinfandel really makes you come across as being gay, so I decided to incorporate that in the fic. :P

If you would like it to go higher, convince me. ;D
If not, I could always make a separate sidefic that uses the same AU and all. But you would have to convince me to do that too. >D (I'm evil, I know.)

Thanks for reading and commenting!! ♥

[bananability]

It makes me wonder what else are considered are 'gay' drinks than, hahahah. :D Do tell me though, what shall I do the convince you to just make this to go a bit higher? (I feel like I'm gonna need to do something drastic, and it's always drastic. And yes, you are evil) :D

[intricateorchid]

From what I've read, real men drink scotch, whiskey, etc.
But of course, Key is not the type to care. :P

DO YOUR WORST. >:D
Or your best. No matter. Just convince me somehow. ;D
Mwahaha.

[ficcy]

I am loving this AU, dear. And you wrote Jonghyun as a bartender wonderfully. I can't wait to hear Key's story. :)

[intricateorchid]

Thank you so much!!
You'll find out more about Key soon enough. ;)

Thank you for reading and commenting! ♥
