Love Yourself (Chapter 39)
title: Love Yourself summary: A lot of things about Dan’s life are pretty great. He gets to make the music he wants, he’s got a great fanbase, and his manager is his best friend. A few things about his life suck a bit more. He’s currently lacking inspiration, he’s rather lonely, and he’s stuck in a rut. Dan’s been going to the same coffee shop for years. It’s quiet, it’s quaint, it’s near his home. Most importantly: none of the employees give a shit that’s he a world-famous singer. Things change when he meets the new barista. chapter words: 13.1k story words: 364k (so far) chapter: 39/? rating: m warnings: language, too much alcohol in the first 288k, some bi/homophobia, eventual explicit smut, some depression, attempted forced outing, d/s kink dynamics, anxiety genre: singer!dan, coffee shop au, barista!phil, slow burn
