Branching Off into many realities after many shenanigans.....
The victims James and Nick have branched off into many shades of het, reaching of into numerous timelines with various partners...though it seemed regardless of whichever timeline they ended up in-they always seemed to almost always be paired up with a particular pair of lesbians. Which later became their partners according to whichever fits best with em.
As for their former attraction to one another, dissipated, shifting to familial or friend like love, pure indifference to the other...as the attraction lurched onto their new partners, OR pure hatred to the other. The curse relished at that, specially the hate, it never ceases to amuse how much emotions can simply turn around just with a simple erection. Bodily contact via violence whereas once in the past they would crave the other’s presence.
Regardless, it also gave the curse a huge laugh when they were still connected as family or friends, positive emotions churning,...maybe partially from their former selves, but never homo as their new bodies were disgusted by it-some more openly than others.
And lets not forget the instances where the men where completely indifferent to one another...captivated by their new natural partner so much that they cannot even remember the existence of any bond of the other. Imagine if they somehow met again in the near future! Will they fight or form a bond once more?! Oh that excitement!
The curse sought its eyes on a multitude, especially homosexuals that have just travelled from the state of San Francisco, the place where all the gays cheer and hooray!
Though even with their paradise, they still decided to come over...to the outside. Infected area safe from their gay temporal haven. Not knowing their former flare for another will soon dissipate like everyone else who has been infected and transformed.

Two of these victims were Greg and Keith, an unlikely university couple who were on holiday.
The two boyfriends chatted, both being extremely thin, lanky and short, angular jaws with thin noses.
And a complete polar opposite to one another in terms of personalities.
“Aw Come on Keithy!!! Aren’t you EXCITED!”
“Shush....you are going to wake that crying baby from the row behind!”
Greg, the more upbeat and shorter of the two was fairly excited to be here in the a destination of fun and relaxation! This fella had this grin on his face, wearing a flora printed tank top and skimpy like shorts with converse kicks. He really had this wacky brunet, tied up man bun look to his hairstyle as he smiled beneath his wide blue eyes.
He really tried to cheer up his boo.
After all, he was the class clown and resident party goer of all his uni mates! Was always the hots of all the friends in the class despite his flamboyant nature and shorter stature. Even the conservative homophobes could at the very least appreciate his intelligence and charisma around, even befriending some of them!
At least before the new outbreak emerged...
“Shouldn’t we check in the hotel first? Why explore before...”
“EXPLORE FIRST! HOTEL LATER-!”
“Alright Alright....Geez...”
Keith sighed, wearing a long sleeved buttoned up shirt, trousers and loafers that hung loosely on him, something that actually belonged to someone who prefers the cold environment of the office better than the hot weather of the outdoors.
Despite the fact Keith was an inch taller. That was generally his only plus side to the black horse genius sitting next to him. Despite the fact he studied a lot-he never managed to make the top. Was it cause he was overtly pale...? Was it cause his glasses were too rectangular? Was it cause his hair was overtly slick-
Oh wait...its in a mess.
Keith’s raven mane was a complete fluff like one of those rebellious punks in the streets or simply men who just did not know how to sit still. His boyfriend Greg kept teasing him about it for the past few hours! GEEZ! Just marry a thug already!
Of course, he did not really mean that.
Despite being annoyed and grumpy, and a sarcastic arse at times. He really loved Greg for reaching out to his introverted nature. He still remembered the time when Greg wanted to date him after a game of Chess...which the shorter one won.
It was always a shock to him. Not the fact that Greg won, that bottle of fluff was always the top of the class despite Keith studying all the day. But the fact that he was willing to stay with him these years and encourage him, a nerd who typically had oily greasy hair...
He would not admit it, but he was the luckiest man in San Francisco.
“Come on, it’s only going to be much more fun when we land, we’ll see!”
“Yeah...and I wouldn’t be surprised if I turn heterosexual by the end of this trip!”
And so they will.
