    Summary

    That’s when he saw him.
    A man, a boy, looking no older than twenty something. He caught sight of big blue eyes and something clicked. Atlas set down Earth, Achilles lowered his shield, Odysseus dropped his oar, and Eddie Diaz?
    Eddie let out a breath, as if it was the first one in all of his lifetimes.
    “What'd ya want?” He mouthed over the noise of the party, scanning the other’s face. There was a birthmark over his left brow, two pink spots, standing out amongst the blues of his eyes and yellows of his hair and stubble. He was wearing a suede jacket that seemed too big on him, probably a hand–me–down; a flower (wild rose, his mind supplied) donned his right lapel, and a name–tag the left; Evan Buckley, he read, testing the words on his tongue. On top of Evan's nose, falling slightly, sat thick–rimmed black glasses.

    or: Eddie Diaz and Evan Buckley meet and fall in love at the height of 1950's Lavender Scare; their love story spans across decades, through wars and protests, highs and lows, up until the 1980's
