Summary
“Stubble’s kinda crazy,” Buck says, “And it actually kinda drives me crazy. I didn’t think I’d be into that, you know? But it’s cool. Like, he’s a man, you know?”
Hen whoops and claps him on the back. “That is nasty and I do not know, but I’m happy for you.”
Buck grins. “Sometimes I kinda feel small. Which has, like, never happened before.”
“Wow,” Chim says dryly, “Wonder what that’s like.”
“It’s just like, you know, even though it doesn’t feel as good, there are still all these new things that I didn’t expect I’d like so much.”
Hen frowns at him. “What do you mean, doesn’t feel as good?”
Buck shrugs. “Well, you know, like, it can kinda hurt sometimes.”
All at once, Eddie, Chim, and Maddie speak, their voices overlapping: “Can you specify it?” “Wait, it hurts?” “Buck, he’s hurting you?”
They’re all sitting forward in their seats now, and Buck scrambles to defuse the situation.
“No! No, I mean, it doesn’t, like, hurt hurt, it’s just, like, ouch! Y’know! Like, normal. Just… uncomfortable. Sometimes.”

Summary
And then, in Los Angeles, 2018, Eddie had met Buck. Then, huddled over a man with a bomb in his leg, Eddie had needed gauze and Buck’s hand had moved. Then, in the parking lot bathed in the light of an ambulance on fire, Buck had inhaled and Eddie's lungs expanded. And, well, that was that.

Summary
“How did you know you and Karen were ready to get married?”
Hen blinks, clearly taken aback by the question. “I didn’t know you and Natalia were so serious.” There’s an odd note in her voice; caution, probably, and Buck finds his throat tightening and heart pounding as his eyes dart around the empty loft, scared to be caught like he’s doing something wrong by asking for an answer to a question he’s already answered.
“We’re not,” he blurts out, face red. “I’m not– I don’t even have a ring, and we haven’t really talked about it, but I was just curious. I mean, you should know since you two got married like, twice, right?”
“That’s true.” Hen hums, then huffs out a laugh just the right amount of soft for this sweet pre-dawn moment. “As cheesy as it sounds, I guess that when you know, you know.”
Yeah, he was afraid she’d say that.
[After eight months of dating, Natalia begins dropping hints for their future together and Buck begins to question if this is what he really wants. One day later, a proposal is made in a kitchen over tiramisu.]

Double Agent Vader by Fialleril
Fandom: Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy
06 Dec 2017
Summary
The one where Vader turned double agent for the Rebellion about three years after ROTS, and Leia is now his primary contact with the Rebellion.
This is a collection of oneshots that all fit into the same universe, but posted in no particular order. Updated when the muse strikes me.
Alternate summary, according to TV Tropes: A man attempts to escape slavery by turning into one of his culture heroes, teaching his daughter how to do magic, killing people, and flower arranging.
