[Ryan's reaction hadn't been a secret at all, though he hadn't openly specified what the actual problem was. He spent the last couple of years calling Bowie a sellout, and swearing up and down that Just Dance was the worst album Bowie ever put out.

But Ryan has known who he is for most of his life. Since puberty at least. And Bowie was someone who always seemed to know exactly who he was too, someone who wasn't afraid to be himself in a world that wasn't always okay with it.

So when Bowie said coming out as bisexual was the biggest mistake of his life? Ryan was heartbroken.

Ryan jumps a little when the receiver slams, but recovers easily enough. As for the cheating...]

I mean...maybe everyone knew? [Ryan shrugs.] They wouldn't be the first rock stars to sleep around. That wasn't exactly the scandalous part, man.

[But something feels off here, more so than he would have guessed. He tilts his head and looks at Min-Gi.]

Are...you okay?
