    Summary

    “We’ll be filming a special edition of American Ninja Warrior,” Troy announces after the introduction to the current contestant ends, “focused on our brave first responders. Go to our website to find out more details and how to submit your videos.”

    Oh.

    “Buddy,” Eddie says, “I don’t really know if that’s my thing.”

    Christopher looks at him, then down at his feet and mumbles something.

    “Didn’t catch that, kiddo,” Eddie says, reaching out and pressing two fingers under Chris’ chin to tilt his face back up.

    “I said,” Christopher says, “I want to nominate Buck.”

    Summary

    "Remember when I fucked Tommy in here?"

    It's not subtle, he's not even pretending to be subtle.

    It's the verbal equivalent of tossing a lit match onto gasoline.

    Buck knows it, and he couldn't be more excited.

    He watches Eddie freeze mid-motion as if someone has hit pause on his actions, his shoulders tense up, his back straight and rigid. He gradually comes back into himself and sets the hanger down in the closet like it’s made of glass, and turns around slowly.

    The look he gives Buck is a fusion of wide eyed confusion and mania.

    But most of all… he looks pissed.

    Good, everything is going to plan.

    Or; Buck is a little shit and Eddie is just trying to do laundry.

    Summary

    The silence on the other end sharpens.

    “What the hell is that supposed to mean?” Buck snaps.

    Eddie flinches. “Nothing. I—”

    “No, come on, say it. What does that mean, Eddie?” Buck pushes, voice rising.

    He feels trapped, like the walls are closing in, like he’s been backed into a corner with no way out. His palms feel sweaty, chest rising and falling too fast, too shallow, like there’s not enough air in the room.

    He’s angry.
    He’s hurt.
    He’s confused.
    He’s jealous.

    It’s too much all at once, emotion piling on top of emotion with nowhere to go.

    And it keeps coming.

    And. And. And.

    His body is trembling under the weight of everything he can’t say, everything he didn’t know until now.

    “I’m just saying,” Eddie starts, “it’s only been a couple of weeks and now you’re fucking Tommy Kinard in my bedroom—”

    “It’s not your bedroom anymore,” Buck cuts in, his voice sharp. “You made sure of that, when you left.”

    Or; 8x11 coda

    Summary

    Still off balance, Buck slams his left heel onto the roof, heaving forward to catch the collar of that yellow shirt. And there’s no conscious decision making here. It’s all instinct, and he’s grateful for it. If he’d given his overzealous mind the chance to consider another way, he would have missed his shot. Instead, his arms hurl the boy into the hands of another survivor...

    And his right foot misses the edge.

    OR

    Buck catches Chris before he rolls off the firetruck, and it's him who falls back into the retreating waters of the tsunami. Unconscious and seriously injured, he's unaware that his team has been searching for him, never giving up as the days pass.
