Summary: George Harold Bottomley often wondered why - if he was as ‘Gifted and Talented’ as everyone kept telling him he was - he was also so ordinary. Well, except for the fact that he was gay. And there was no ‘ordinary’ way to come out; no script to follow. But he desperately wanted rules - an established, accepted way of doing it… Like a form to fill out where he could put a cross in the ‘gay’ box and it’d get filed away with all other information about him, and he’d never have to worry about it again. Sadly, the world did not work like that. At all. (Or: George thought that coming out would be a big hurdle. But it was only the beginning.)
Setting: London 2022.
Characters: All OCs, apart from a cameo by Jack.
Pairing: m/m (in case that wasn't obvious)
Rating: PG-13 (some parts veering off into R)
Wordcount: 80k altogether. Finished, not a WIP. Will post at a steady pace
Thank yous: Toenevarim. He knows why.
Warnings: There's no non-con or character death (apart from in the past), but I feel I do need to point out that parts of this story are likely to cause upset. I'm not sure quite how to formulate that without spoiling the story. But please - proceed with caution.
Feedback: Would be lovely, but is by no means obligatory or even expected. (And please, no flames. I am very aware that I am navigating a minefield. All advice and guidance gratefully accepted.)
