Interesting stories.
The first one is about moving on after being dumped. More than that, it's about changing the MC's attitude where he assumes they would eventually break up even when he gets into a relationship because gay relationships don't last.
The second story is about 2 childhood friends who drew a line between themselves when they found out gay relationships are not accepted in society and how they finally manage to cross the line and confess to each other.

Very run-of-the-mill story of the fake prince falling in love with the straight-forward scary dude who gives it to him straight (pun unintented)

This one is a classic. One of the earliest seke pairs and a relationship that's pretty much relationship goals. It's neither too deep nor too flippant. Just perfect for flipping pages without getting too attached. It will neither make you think too hard nor would it give you a headache with illogical, dumb cliches.
