Summary
“You don’t deserve him,” Eddie says. “You never have, and you never will.”
And then he hangs up the phone and lets out a ragged breath - one it sounds like he’s been holding for much longer than the length of that conversation.
It makes Buck’s fingers itch with the urge to reach out and touch him. He’s reached through fire and over cliff sides, across blood-soaked asphalt and between a decades worth of trauma, all for Eddie. This - this is nothing.

Summary
“Hey,” Buck whines, resting his head on Eddie’s shoulder. “We’ve got a kid at home, okay. I gotta watch my language.”
Eddie almost chokes on his own tongue. We’ve got a kid at home. Jesus fucking Christ. He’s going to order an Uber and then throw himself in front of it.
(Or, Buck gets handsy when he’s drunk. Eddie has Feelings about it.)

Summary
“It’s always pretty fun to see a former fuckboy from your grad school era bootycall list all domestic and settled down.”
“Right, uh,” Buck’s brain is very quickly piecing together the slow onceovers, no doubt cataloguing the matching sleep-soft sweatpants and cozy hoodies and unbrushed hair at breakfast-time on a weekday. The singular witnessed conversation regarding co-purchased home cleaning products. The lack of personal space followed by the hasty exit when made to interact with an ex of sorts. “He’s, uh, he’s actually my best friend.”
“Hey man, I love that for you. That’s the best way to do it, you know? Wish everyone got that in their relationship.” She's smiling very warmly at him. Buck’s sweating again.
“He’s my partner,” Buck stresses, as much emphasis on the word ‘partner’ as he can manage.
or, two boy best friends and an ex lover walk into a grocery store. everyone is on their normalest behaviour.

Summary
“Was I… satisfied with the sex?”
“Yes.”
“The… one time we had sex five years ago?”
Buck doesn’t seem to pick up in her voice the insinuation that this is a legitimately insane thing to ask, because he says, “I just want you to know that I’m really sorry if you weren’t. I was a different guy back then, and I’ve realised a lot of the sex I was having was probably really phallocentric and only focused on my own pleasure rather than my partner’s—”
“Oh my God,” Natalie says.
“I just wanted you to know that I’m really sorry if you felt unsatisfied.”
or, Buck calls various women he's slept with. Eddie is perpetually long-suffering.

Summary
Suddenly, between one moment and the next, there are hands on him. Hands that Buck would know anywhere; hands that Buck knows maybe even better than he knows his own. The touch is exquisitely gentle - tender to the point of devastation, even though the calloused palms scratch against the soft skin of his cheeks.
It’s Eddie, because of course it is. Because who else would it be.
“Breathe for me,” he says, loud enough that everyone can hear, but meant only for them. Only for Buck.

Summary
“You’ve got a little… there.” Eddie pointed at his face, but his index finger was swaying a little – on its own accord or just in Buck’s vision, he wasn’t sure.
“Here?” He stuck his tongue out to catch the sugar crystals stuck to his upper lip, but then something else happened.
Eddie leaned in and caught Buck’s tongue between his lips, as if it was the most natural thing in the world – and Buck’s mind might've been a bit foggy, but he didn't think it was something they ever did before.Or
They get drunk, Eddie makes a move and then there is the next morning.

Summary
“Buck, listen to me,” Eddie says, grabbing Buck’s wrist and lifting it off of his thigh. “I think that I’m . . . Bad at being a dispatcher?” He phrases it like a question, because – well, because he knows it, but he’s not sure if anyone else has clocked that fact yet.
And Buck, much to Eddie’s confusion, blinks at him for approximately four seconds before breaking out into fits of loud, deep laughter. “I’ve been keeping a list,” Buck says. “Let’s start from the beginning.”

Or, the one where Eddie absolutely cannot handle working a desk job.- Language:

Summary
“Yes, well,” Margaret said with a sigh. “Evan’s always been a little tragic I’m afraid.”
Athena froze as something hot flooded her belly and rumbled in her chest.
“Tragic?”
Margaret laughed as she sipped her coffee. “You know, you would’ve expected with Maddie being the girl that she would’ve been the drama queen of the two but Evan always had a---”
It was in that moment that Athena realized that she was going to have to apologize to Buck later on.
She snapped and what little resolve she had on her self-restraint deteriorated away like dry sand in her hand. She'd had enough. She placed her mug down with an audible thunk against the wood of the tabletop.
Or what should happen after that scene in the promo.

“You know why, Mads,” Buck says. “I can’t—I can’t just come back and pretend that nothing happened. That I didn’t betray everyone’s trust.”
“But they forgive you,” Maddie says, and she frowns into the camera, lips pinching together. “You know they forgive you, right?”
And Buck—he does know, knows that they forgave him the moment he apologized, but the thing is—
The thing is, Buck isn’t quite sure he forgives himself yet.
or, after the lawsuit, buck returns to los angeles to see maddie. seeing eddie too—well, that’s just inevitable.

Summary
It’s something about the way Eddie phrases it. Something about the combination of his words and the way he’s staring down at the floor, and the flush in his cheeks and the way he’s fidgeting. Buck thinks, abruptly, he’s going to ask me on a date.
“Well I - wanted to tell you first, and I need someone to watch Chris, anyways - I know he’s getting old enough now he doesn’t like feeling like he’s got a babysitter, so I was hoping - sorry. Not the point. Uh. I have a date on Saturday.”
Just as abruptly as his own hopes had come soaring up above the cloud cover of his own unawareness - they go crashing back down to the floor - to the basement, and into the mud. “A date?” Buck rasps out.
or - the one where eddie decides to start dating again, buck figures out his own feelings just a minute too late, and then he spends a week going through the five stages of grief

Summary
Eddie hates that anyone in this entire world could meet Buck and think the most interesting thing about him is his death, and not his life - not all the amazing, brave, selfless things that he’s done to get him here.
Buck’s death is maybe the least fascinating thing about him, as far as Eddie is concerned. It’s his life that is spectacular.

Summary
“This is home because you’re here,” Alec tells him softly, each word like a blow to Magnus’ chest. “New York is… New York and the Institute will always have a part of me I suspect, but wherever you are that’s where my home is. I don’t much care what it looks like.”
And then he’s gone, cursing under his breath, back to the kitchen, the kiss he’d pressed to the top point of Magnus’ jaw lingering in his wake. For a brief moment Magnus wonders if Alec will ever stop completely overhauling Magnus’ outlook on life with little more than a small gesture or few honest words, but then decides he wouldn’t want it any other way and magics the painting so it hangs facing their bed.
(It takes Magnus far too long to realise where all the paintings Alec's been bringing home come from.)

He’s not sure of the exact moment that it happened - maybe there never was one, or maybe it was all of them. But Eddie has loved Buck all along, he just has a name for it now.
It’s the most gentle kind of revelation.
