In which Eddie asks a question, Maddie and Bobby offer some advice, and Buck seizes his future with both hands.

Summary
So here was the thing: Buck was maybe, possibly, having a bit of a breakdown.
It was when he found himself standing in the station kitchen, debating jamming the paring knife he was using to peel an apple into the back of his hand to see if he felt anything, that he could finally pinpoint a whisper of emotion inside the cavern of himself.
Unfortunately, that emotion was absolute fucking terror.In which Buck's laundry list of near-death and actual-death experiences catches up with him, post-cruise-disaster. He has, however, two things on his side: a handful of healthy coping mechanisms, and a best friend who won't let him flounder alone.
