    Summary

    “I'm not in love with you.” There’s a jolt in Eddie’s stomach at that. “I’m not secretly pining for you, or anything like that. I don’t even see you that way.”

    “Oh,” Eddie says, then forces out a laugh he hopes sounds casual. Buck’s eyes are wide, honest, like he’s desperate for Eddie to be reassured by this admission, to believe him. And how much clearer could he be? He’s not in love with Eddie. That’s fine. Eddie never expected him to be. His now empty beer bottle hits the counter too loudly, “No, of course not.”

    Or: Buck reassures Eddie that he's not in love with him. Eddie feels some type of way about that.

    Summary

    Eddie should be there. But he’s not. And if he can’t be, then…

    “It’s me,” Buck says, his voice cracking over the words.

    When a call gone awry results in Eddie missing, presumed drowned and dead, Buck has to keep fighting. For what matters most. For Christopher.

    Or: A dive into what the consequences of Eddie's Will might look like in Season 9.

    Summary

    “You have no idea the kind of mess my life is right now.”

    Beside him, Charlie nods slowly, lets the words linger in the air.

    “And I just put a whole wrench in there, didn’t I?”

    Eddie is already shaking his head. “No.” He sniffles again, wipes a tired hand over his face before turning to face them. “I think maybe you took it out.”

    OR: Eddie meets Charlie, a nonbinary person, and tries to remember what the priest said about joy: Maybe it’s this. Maybe it’s getting drunk and hooking up with a stranger. Maybe it’s pretending that it’s not Charlie’s flat chest, blond curls and beard stubble that light a fire inside him. Because Charlie said it was fine. He was fine. He was.

    Summary

    “I thought you were staying with Eddie,” she says. He looks soggy. There’s really no other way to describe it. “Why do you need to live in my apartment?”
    “I was,” he says, and she expects him to elaborate on what’s changed, but he doesn’t. It’s not the first time she’s wondered what’s going on there, but she always felt it was none of her business. It isn’t her business. Which is why half of said business should not be standing in her kitchen right now, looking like a gigantic lost puppy.

    Buck needs a place to live. Athena has a room.
