↳ STORY DESCRIPTION
the revolution was bound to come. there had always been whispers about such things, though very few people ever took charge. when a war broke out and soldier after soldier was sent overseas to be brutally murdered people finally came forward to take a stand, though it wasn't as easy as some thought. it was a constant uphill battle but one that many deemed necessary. declan pattersin was one of those people, and when he was assaulted for believing in such things he went to others who shared the same mindset. this is their story, what they faced, and what they accomplished.
↳ IMPORTANT INFORMATION
this story is mildly based off of the movie "the trial of the chigaco seven". since that movie is based off of real events I have decided that using the actual people and events would be extremely disrespectful, therefore I have come to the decision to make a similar story instead. aside from my own characters I will be mildly basing the other characters personalities off of the original, however they'll be otherwise different. this story is something that I want to be impactful. I'm not doing this just because, I'm doing it because I have found inspiration from the movie and felt the strong need to make something that pulls from said inspiration. but this is also a gay romance so 👀 we gonna vibe because LGBTQ+ > amiright?
