Summary
It's just not the same, you know? And going from seeing Buck basically every day to maybe three times a week is…rough to say the least.
He‘s had a solution brewing in his mind since Buck got discharged, of course, but it seems too telling of what he wants, how he feels about Buck.
“We miss you, too,” he says honestly. Then, he opens his mouth again, for what he’s not sure, when a high-pitched whine reaches his ears.
A very high-pitched whine, one that is definitely not from Buck.
“I think you’re squeezing it too hard,” Buck tells him with a grin, his previous mood forgotten as he looks at the toy in Eddie’s grip.
The toy? It whines? He didn’t even feel-
A sudden flash of color disrupts his thoughts, and he looks up to see-

Summary
“I think he deserves to sweat about it for a while,” Magenta said, reclining back in her chair. “Maybe if he thinks that another guy is interested in you, he’ll come to his senses and see what’s right in front of him.”
Layla’s head snapped up to look at her shapeshifting friend.
“Magenta, that’s it!”
“What’s it?”
“I’m going to make Will jealous… By pretending to date Warren Peace.”

Summary
When Evan began to yawn, Daniel smiled at him. “Sleepy?”
Evan nodded, crawling into Daniel’s lap without hesitation. He curled up against Daniel’s chest, his small hands clutching at his brother’s sweater.
“Sing, Bubba,” Evan murmured sleepily, voice already thick with drowsiness.
Daniel swallowed past a building ache in his throat, smoothing a warm hand over Evan’s back. “Yeah, you want your song?”
Evan mumbled and nodded into Daniel’s chest, as he closed his eyes and settled.
“Okay, little bear. I got you.”
Buck hears a song from a forgotten past that sends him reeling, leading him to a new discovery about the loss he has faced.

Summary
Everyone knows that when you touch someone who's going to be important to you for the first time, you'll leave a mark on them. It's not just romantic love; parents and children, siblings, close friends all share marks too. At least, they do in theory. Maddie's the only person who's ever touched Buck and left anything behind.
.
It’s funny, growing up knowing your parents don’t care about you. The kind of funny that would get Evan uninvited from sleepovers, which is why he always changes into his pajamas in the bathroom. The kind of funny that he’s not allowed to ask his parents about. The kind of funny that makes Maddie look at him so sadly sometimes, when she doesn’t realize he can see her out of the corners of his eyes.- Language:

Summary
Three weeks after Eddie leaves for Texas, Buck gets a call in the middle of the night from a trauma center in El Paso. Eddie was in a serious car accident and has been rushed into surgery for a skull fracture. Buck rushes to Texas, finding that things are even messier than he imagined, and that's before Eddie wakes up and confesses that he's not sure it was actually an accident. That he might have done it on purpose. So Buck does what his parents never did for him: he steps in, all the way, and helps put his little family back together.

Summary
If there is one thing Buck will always do, it is help people. Doesn't matter what sort of danger it puts him in, or who the person is, he will jump in feet first and get the job done. When he's alone in a parking lot late one evening, of course he's going to run towards the woman yelling that her father is having a heart attack. Why wouldn't he?
When he doesn't show up for his shift the next morning, Eddie and the rest of the 118 immediately know something is very, very wrong. But this time, there's not much they can do about it. There's no ladders to climb, no debris to move. Buck just isn't where he's supposed to be.

🔞 NSFWAm I (M33) comphet or an impostor???!!!
For the record, I am straight. I think so, anyway. Or I did, all of six hours ago, before my coworkers introduced me to the term ‘comphet’. And now my entire world has kind of spun on its axis and I’m wondering if I’ve been secretly craving dick this whole time.

OR after breaking up with Tommy, Buck goes on a deep-dive on sexuality. He needs to tell someone about all he learns, of course, and Eddie seems like the best option.

Summary
Buck knows the story the same way all Buckley witches know the story: Maria Buckley, née Owens, had doomed the firstborn son of every Buckley to die before his tenth birthday.
Buck was born just two minutes after Daniel.
It was long enough.

OR: Buck wishes for a kid so bad he lowkey summons Christopher Diaz to LA. This would be fine, probably, if it weren't for Christopher's extremely hot police detective dad, the sudden reappearance of Buck's sister, and of course the whole 'accidental murder' thing.

Summary
Eddie has to stop Chris from sneaking food to the dog during dinner. “I know the meatballs aren’t your favorite,” he says tiredly. “But they have garlic in them, which isn’t good for the dog.”
Chris stops immediately, to his credit. “Sorry,” he says, and leans down to performatively whisper to the dog, “You’re not missing much anyway.”
“Hey,” Eddie says, with no heat. “I know they aren’t as good as --” He catches himself.
Chris wilts in his chair. “Sorry,” he mumbles again, and Eddie hates himself so much that for a second, he can’t breathe.
“Hen brought treats we can give the dog after dinner,” he tries instead, and Ladder Truck Dog’s ears prick up at the sound of words he recognizes, which at least makes Chris smile, just a little.
.
Buck goes missing. The 118 gets a dog. These two facts are unrelated, right?

Summary
In 2014, the world was turned upside down when ancient mythical beasts began to reveal themselves to humanity. Some are decades old, coming out of hibernation and crawling from the depths of the Earth itself. Some had camouflaged as mountain peaks, some broke free from volcanoes and oceans and glaciers. Some much taller than skyscrapers, and some no bigger than dogs. These creatures would roam the Earth, forcing humanity to adapt. The government would want to research them, study them, weaponize them. Some would want them killed. Exterminated. Hunted to extinction.
But many say that the only way for humanity’s survival is coexistence.- aka the buddie dragonverse au
