Hmm... I like both, but I'm not sure if they'd fit in with the challenge, which is expressly about exploring LGBT issues (not just cute guys snogging *grin*). I'd need to figure out a way to emphasize their sexual identities, either how they define themselves or how others react to them. With some tweaking that could be worked into your ideas. :) I really like the second one - that'd just be FUN. *grin* I also thought of one awhile ago, after reading your idea, where they hook up in the 18th century, then Jack S. gets the fountain of youth and meets up with Jack H. again 200+ years later. They recognize each other, stuff happens. Possibly something where they continue to hook up throughout over the course of the next however many years, negotiating the varying norms and ideas about sexuality as they go. Could be fun, but also bittersweet. :)
