Divine Intervention
Liam, Bart, and Evan have been best friends since college. Though Liam is straight, he makes an effort to take his two friends to all the gay bars in their city. Liam acts as the matchmaker for many of his gay friends, but he has not made the connection between Evan and Bart. At least, not yet.
Evan and Bart find themselves drawn towards one another through a shared love of punk music and video games, but neither is able to make the first move. Evan, a former drunk who is still working on getting his life together, fears his own weakness in the face of alcohol and the pressures of his family. Bart, a runaway from his home state of Utah and his Mormon family, still struggles with what he is allowed to believe.
After Liam breaks up with his girlfriend, Bart and Evan meet at his apartment for a night of conciliatory drinking. But when they arrive, Liam isn’t there. As they wait for their friend, Bart and Evan begin to realize they’ve waited long enough for one another. But is it worth risking their friendship in the hope of discovering something more that might exist between them?
Impatience Is a Virtue
After Marshall gets a medical residency across the state and hours away from his boyfriend Jack, the two decide on a long-distance relationship. This arrangement works, more or less. Marshall isn’t the best with texting and his time is often scattered, but so is Jack’s when he’s working double-shifts at Target. When they connect over Skype and text messages, it’s good. And when they don’t, Jack finds other ways to keep their relationship interesting and the excitement present. But when Black Friday forces both to work hectic schedules and deal with impatient crowds, Jack wonders if spending Thanksgiving apart was really a good idea.
During Black Friday, Jack’s coworkers amuse him with customer service horror stories, take selfies, and rewrite traditional holiday songs. As Marshall’s text messages become less and less frequent, Jack wonders if the two of them will be able to wait out the three weeks and six days until they can see one another over Christmas break.
When everyone tells Jack “patience is a virtue,” he starts to see the faulty argument at its core. Being quiet has never gotten him anything in his life. Can he learn from these bossy customers how to voice his own desires and have Marshall home all to himself?
