Summary
Buck, her brother, the kid she raised, is gone. The kid who helped her through her lowest and brought her up, and cheered her on even through her highest. The kid she never thought she could lose. The kid she can’t believe is gone. How could she? It’s her brother, and she wasn’t even there through his lowest.
Or: Post lawsuit, Buck gets into a car accident and dies. Eddie feels a certain way, Maddie doesn’t know how to take it, Athena and Bobby comfort each other, Chris lost another parent.

Summary
"So, I will. I’m gonna tell you our story. I will be as delicate as I can because he never deserved anything but gentleness. I only hope I was able to love him the way the universe intended me to love him. I can’t fathom thinking that loving him from this far will ever amount to what I could’ve done had we had our whole lives. I was too late."
Or:
After Buck dies, Eddie writes ten heartfelt letters to Maddie, telling her the story of how they fell in love, so she can feel closer to her brother once again.

Summary
I got nothing. I was inspired by a tiktok post that asked someone to write something like this. I hope that i captured their desire at least somewhat. And as always I refer to my trusty excerpt as I can't write a summary to save my life.
Excerpt:
“W-wass ‘rong” Buck stumbles over his words, exhausted. His hair is bed messy, sandy locks tossed in wild directions.
“You almost fucking died.” Eddie says.
He begins to cry.
It happens somewhere between the words leaving his mouth and his understanding of their gravity. He says them over and over again brokenly. Like now that the dam has broken there’s no stopping its release.
Buck moves close to Eddie and cups his face in his hands.
“Eddie, Eddie, Ed. Hey, look at me,” and he slips one hand under Eddie’s chin to turn his face towards him. “But I didn’t. I didn’t honey. I'm right here.”"

Summary
If you stop to think about it, a tsunami really happens in three parts. The wave draws back, like you draw your fist back before a punch, then the fist extends, the wave rushes out onto shore and chases people inland. Then it flows back out to sea, like it was never there at all. The tsunami could have gone so differently, but in all the ways it could have gone, Eddie feels terror grip his chest and watches, with his eyes forced open, as the people he loves get hurt again and again and again.
OR
Three (mostly) standalone tsunami AUs.

Summary
“Buck should have died.
That was his first thought as he landed in water instead of flames and rubble, Eddie’s screams fading out as Buck fell into a pool hard enough to hit the bottom.
Buck hadn’t closed his eyes, he hadn’t thought to hold his breath, convinced he was about to die from a six floor drop, not land in a pool in the building’s basement, in the one tiny section that hadn’t yet been filled with pieces of the hotel crumbling around them.
Buck inhaled some of the ashy water as his body spurred him into motion, evidently getting over the certainty of his death before Buck consciously had as he swam back up on instinct. He dizzily took stock of where he’d ended up, ears not quite ringing enough to cover up the blood-chilling sound of Eddie’s pained cries from somewhere far above him where he thought Buck was dead.”

Summary
Buck's teary eyes widen and he lifts his face to look at the man before him, everything happening too fast for his broken mind to catch up, he breathes out a short huff of air mixed with a mewl and the man presses the barrel of the gun to his forehead, pressing hard so Buck's head tilts backwards.
"You don't know when to die, do you?" He growls between his gritted teeth.
Buck's eyes close and his breath hitches in his throat, face damp with tears, his voice not even a whisper. "I'm sorry."

Summary
"Hm. I noticed you here the other day. Bad week?" The man questioned, leaning against the bar. He didn't seem to know how to take a hint, but Buck didn't care all too much, so he sighed and met the stranger's eyes again.
"You could say that. If the week included the past—almost three months." Buck picked his drink up off the counter, taking a long swig in an attempt to stave off the awkwardness. His face scrunched in disgust at the taste, and he blinked rapidly in shock as he pulled it away from his mouth. Salt?
(Or, post-lawsuit, Buck gets roofied and it solves all his problems.)

Summary
He needed to breathe.
He’d been in enough pain in his life to know that.
So, Buck, taking all the experience of growing up alone and seeking the attention even if came at the price of a broken arm or a skinned knee did what he knew would help.
He exhaled slowly and melted into the table.
“Good boy,” Eddie said and all of Buck’s thoughts went silent as the buzzing that had been under his skin stopped.
Everything stopped.
Everything went still.
And Buck felt real for the first time in such a long time.

Summary
Buck and Eddie were together in El-Paso, living together and raising Chris together after Shannon left shortly after Chris turns three. While Eddie's parents were not happy about it, there was not a lot they could do since Eddie had made it very clear that he would not let them drive away another partner. However, when Eddie is shot and falls into a coma, and Helena and Ramon are the only ones informed about it, they see their chance to finally get rid of the blight on their family. They tell Buck that Eddie was killed and sue him for custody of Chris which is granted by the judge along with a restraining order forbidding Buck to ever knowingly come within a hundred miles of his son. When Eddie wakes months later, they tell him that Buck is the one that died and left Chris with them.
It all comes out two years later when Eddie joins the 118.

Summary
Eddie was sitting on the floor of the hallway with his back against Christopher’s bedroom door. His eyes were dry, streaky tracks staining his cheeks where he had cried so much he ran out of tears. Through the closed door, he could hear sobbing, his son crying out for the one person who wasn’t there. He felt useless, wanting nothing more than to give Christopher exactly what he wanted but powerless to do so. He wrapped his arms around his legs and rested his head on his knees, curling up impossibly small.
Buck was missing. It had been twelve months since anyone last saw him.

Or, Buck was never found after the tsunami, but a year later, some hope returns to the 118.

Summary
“Oh Buck,” Eddie sighs, almost-silently. “What are we going to do with you?”
‘Keep me,’ Buck thinks desperately, even as coherency struggles past his grip. ‘Please, don’t let me ruin this. Just keep me right here, with you.’
OR
Buck survived a tsunami, but it's this - the distance, the cold looks, Eddie - it's this that's going to kill him.

Summary
Not a gun, he tells himself. Not every loud noise is a gun. It's probably just a car backfiring.
"Buck?" Eddie's voice is shaky. "What was that?"
Buck swings his gaze back around, flickering over the other people scattered around him that are all perked up in interest. "I don't—Um—"
There's a second bang, and then the screaming starts.
(Or, Buck is at the mall when two shooters open fire.)

Summary
Eddie just stared at him, the words tumbling around in his head as he catalogued away every single detail of Bobby’s horror-stricken face: The tears falling silently down his cheeks, the corners of his mouth turned down into a frown, the way his nostrils flared as he tried to stave off more tears. It was funny – the first thought he had was that he didn’t think he’d ever seen his captain cry.
