Summary
Eddie was less than thrilled when Chris came home with a red solo cup full of dirt. He was so happy to tell Eddie about the class speaker they had, a botanist—“plant guy,” he called him—who helped them plant a flower. Eddie was used to Chris dumping all of his latest endeavors on him, and it would certainly disappoint the kid when his plant died because Eddie couldn’t care for it.
But Chris took care of it. He took care of Queen and loved her, but of course, she started to wilt. So, what else could Eddie do but pack up his son and the plant, drive over to the botanist that came to speak to their class, and find out what was wrong with the plant? And maybe drool over the guy, just a little bit? No harm, right?

Summary
“I like your eye spots,” the kid says, reaching for a glue stick.
“Thank you,” he says. “It’s a birthmark.”
“I’ve never seen a birthmark before!” The kid gasps. “How do you get one?”
Or, Buck gets crushed by a ladder truck and chooses to glass-half-full it. He volunteers to teach a kid's art class at the library. He meets a kid and his dad and his cup end ups very, very full.

Summary
“Yeah. Craziest thing. My kid comes home a few weeks ago with a birthmark on his eyebrow. Looks suspiciously like a smudge of paint, but he assures me it’s a birthmark.”
“Ah,” Buck cringes. "Mr Diaz - -"
"Eddie."
Or, if you ask Christopher, that smudge on his eyebrow is a birthmark. If you ask Eddie, his kid won't stop painting on his face and he has no idea why.

Summary
“Finally, we’ve got a special guest joining us for the next six weeks. As you should all be aware, Chimney recently signed up for the LAFD/LFB exchange programme. He will be spending the next six weeks in England seeing how they do things over there, meanwhile, we have one of London Fire Brigade’s finest joining us. I'm sure he’ll have lots of questions so please help him out. I expect you all to make him feel welcome."
“Uh Cap?” Hen’s the one to ask which is great because Eddie’s coffee hasn’t kicked in yet, “Does this Brit have a name?”
Bobby frowns and retrieves his clipboard to peer at the name he has scrawled at the bottom of the sheet. “Evan Buckley. Send him my way if you see him, won’t you?”
--- Or Buck is British, and Eddie has a big fat crush on him even though he knows he's only around for six weeks. ---

Summary
“I’m Eddie,” the stuck-up ghost replies, slowly. “Why aren’t you scared of seeing me?”
Buck tilts his head to the side, “you’re not very scary.”
“I mean, you’re seeing a gh---you can see me and you’re not freaking out.”
Buck shrugs, “oh. It’s been twenty-six years of this, dude. It would be kind of pathetic if I flipped out every time. Trust me, you’ve been a very polite ghost.”
“What the fuck,” it’s what Eddie says.

Or: the 9-1-1 rewrite where Buck sees ghosts and Eddie is technically in a coma, but mostly he spends his time hauting the firetruck.
