When Marty suggests they take things slow, Gordon races off, and any hope of a relationship goes right along with him.
  
  
  Four years pass, and Marty does his best to move on. But fate brings them back together as Gordon is preparing for another Olympic bid. They agree to start over, slowly this time.

  My name is Sonia, and I'm a ghost. I'm stuck haunting my old house, and as much as I love the place, if I weren't already dead, I'd be bored to death. When Annie moves in, though, I'm much less bored. She's not scared off by my presence, and she even tries to communicate with me. I have the biggest crush of my afterlife, and I'm kinda getting the impression that maybe, if we can figure out how to interact, she might even feel the same. This is a short story.

  Sex, death, nature, and the "feminine": an autofiction romance in four acts. 
   
   
   
  Your Body of Water is an interweaving of autofiction with hydro-feminist mythologies, exploring via the emotional landscapes of four rivers and four "tragic feminine characters" (Ophelia, Leda, the Lady of Shalott, and Sappho) the author's own real life journey, with a dose of tongue-in-cheek humor—through coming out in Australia, an abusive relationship in Berlin, and navigating queer love in the context of a world literally burning around us—and finding hope for the future in the stories of her ancestors before her.

  Hero's Heart Like Burning

  Five years before, Aeschylus dragged his battered body home after a lifetime of service in Aegina's navy. He'd hoped for a place to curl up and forget. Instead, he'd found himself the city guard's captain and in the middle of a political firefight with Aegina's rival and nearest neighbor, Athens.  
  Aeschylus had stopped the municipal kidnappings and made a berth for himself. A loveless and monotonous berth. 
  No one with any sense would join the guard. Young hoplites itching for glory and gold joined the Marines or were hired as mercenaries. There was always a war somewhere. Aeschylus needed a decent guardsman. Someone who understood that everyone deserved the same level of protection. 
  Aeschylus knew prayer was as dangerous as poking a hydra with a stick, but he was out of options. Aeschylus asked Ares, the god of war, to send him an old hoplite weary of fighting.  
  Ares sent him Thêritas of Thrace. A young soldier on a divine labor. A handsome young soldier eager to learn what he could from Aeschylus. Gods sent men on labors to punish or prepare them for a glorious death. Aeschylus told himself there was no reason to borrow sorrows that hadn't yet happened. 
  Mysteries were piling up.  
  It would be up to Aeschylus and his appealing young guardsman to sort the mysteries from the genuine miracles and do their best to ensure Aegina didn't go straight to Tartarus. 
  Aeschylus hadn't asked for a miracle. But as a result of his prayer, he got the whole miraculous ball of wax.

  Too fascinated by Calvin not to try, Matt succeeds in breaking the doctor's hard exterior, but as their relationship turns serious, the possibility hangs over his head that his coworkers will tell his sexy doctor the truth and end his dreams of winning Calvin's heart forever.
