Man In Motion: a poll

[Mark Arbour]

March, 1985: The first HIV test, the ELISA test, becomes available. Which characters will end up testing positive for HIV?

I'm picking Lark, because I see him as one of those closetcases that end up getting infected because of all the sneaking around they do.

Not likely, since I'm one of those closet-cases.

 

And negative.

You know, in listing the minor characters, it would help to have a reminder of their relationship background in the stories...I didn't know who Greg was until reading about him in the stories, and still forget the relationship that links him in. All the others I remember as major players in the storyline....but I hate to think of Mouse coming down with HIV...he sounds so cute...

[Sir Galahad]

This is a tough one, cos at one point or other they were all total sluts!

But, if I had to pick, I'd go for Stefan & maybe Marc, but again it's like it could be any or all. If Stefan has it then it's a good bet Greg is HIV+, & so on.

Roger as well could be infected, after all he did have all those guys in the bath house.

My head hurts now, thinking too much with a hangover will do that to ya.

I went with Stefan, Greg, and Sam. Surprisingly, there are several votes for Stefan but only one for Greg. Obviously, since Stefan is often a top, Greg is likely to get it as well. And Sam, well he's a bit of a slut, so I'd say he's a likely candidate.

But Stefan and Greg are quite stable couple, where is the reason for them to be infected? They're together since 70s and I think it was claimed they were both faithful... On the other hand, Peter Gordon had already been announced... Marc Sievres is likely to be other one. But I must admit I don't want any of the main characters to die so I am not very reasonable in my judgements :-)

I'm with you on the Stephan/Greg issue but.... I believe that they were still "playing" around with Armand. Remember, they had a couple of guys who they were still messing around with but I don't remember if/when they decided to be monogamous. I'm also adding Neil since he is NOT faithful to Robbie but would hate to see Robbie infected because of Neil's irresponsibility. Marc is my other option since he can't control his libido and now we know that Peter is infected also.

Yeah, I also remember that Stefan has been known to fool around with JP from time to time (when he wasn't in a relationship), so to an extent Stefan and Greg have an open relationship. How open I am unsure though.

It looks as though I was wrong. I'm actually glad that I was, at least about two of them.

[Sir Galahad]

Ja, looks like a few of us got it wrong with Stef & Greg, so now it's a waiting game to see who is infected.

Not sure how many Mark has in mind, but have a feeling a main character is gonna have it.

Am sticking to my guns & saying Marc & Roger, but hope JP has escaped. That said this awful virus takes no prisoners. The waiting game begins...again.

Yeah, and with Ch. 5, the waiting game continues on what type of kink Robbie's into as well...Mark's pushing for King of Cliffhangers for next year, I think...
