Turns out I was in the gutter all along...

So, a couple weeks ago I got tickled by the phrase "discovering he's gay."  Its weird, isn't it?  This idea that we discover our sexuality, like it was hiding beneath a rock or something.  On the other hand, it can seem like our sexuality is something apart from us, a sort of invader.

Long story short, I'm writing a short story (see what I did there) about a boy who discovers his homosexuality in a shoe box in the middle of a field.  It should be both funny and heartwarming or terrifying and melancholic, or all of those things.  Man, if I could evoke that many emotions in 40k words, it'd be like I'm a good author or something.
