  Summary

  Ian Gallagher is not noticed by his family, he is like an invisible man. Mickey Milkovich dreams of not being noticed.
  Ian suffers from mental health issues when he confronts (literally) Mickey, who has been kicked out of his house for being gay.
  Perhaps they just need each other's help to live fulfilling lives and be happy.
