Summary
Skyscrapers in the city didn’t reach so much as hunch, Atlases under the sky’s stifling weight. High-rise lights in the distant far-up were smothered by the smog, which broke itself against the brickwork—just another murder-suicide.
One more cold night in a long spell of dark, listless, collar-turned-up evenings. New York. Nineteen fifty-three.
///
Two doctors-turned-detectives meet by chance. They fall out, fall in, and fall together in the fall of 1953.

Summary
“What’s somebody as pretty as you doing at a conference as dull as this, anyway?” Hawkeye’s gaze lingered obviously on BJ’s mouth. He was turning up the charm by degrees, trying to test exactly how firmly BJ was committed to playing hard-to-get.
“Networking,” BJ replied shortly.
“Networking?” Hawkeye’s smile lines deepened. He leered. “I like the sound of that. Think you and I could make a productive connection?”///
BJ and Hawkeye take a trip east to a conference and get carried away flirting on the dance floor, triggering a major misunderstanding with their colleagues—namely, that they absolutely hate each other.

Summary
If anything good comes into the Swamp, Hawkeye assumes BJ will share. Japanese candy, the latest whirligig from one of the local merchants, even the trashy paperbacks he swears he doesn't read keep ending up on Hawk's pillow with creases in the spine.
Of course, there are things BJ doesn't tell him. But the letter practically falls into his lap. It would be silly, really, to not read it.Bookmarked by Gay_knights

Summary
“Oh, here’s one. We must not look at goblin men, we must not wear their suits. For even if the stripes are pin, I could not give two hoots.”
B.J. laughed softly, then quieted as he went in with a pair of graspers for a piece of metal. When he had pulled it out and dropped it into the bowl with a satisfying clang, he sent the ball back into Hawk’s court.
“Oh, my love is like a bloody nose, newly sprung in June.”
“Who’s that?” Hawkeye asked.
“Robert Burns. No relation to Frank, of course.”
---
B.J. learns a lot about Hawkeye the first day they meet. One thing that keeps coming up is their shared passion for poetry. It’s nice to have someone to trade verses with.Bookmarked by Gay_knights
