    Summary

    “Buck.”
    There’s a pause, and then the sound of a breathless, ragged sob. Not the kind Buck lets out when he’s trying to play it off, not the kind he hides behind a laugh. No, this is raw, wet and broken and small.
    “Can you pick me up?”
    Bobby’s chest cracks open.
    Buck’s voice is hoarse, like he’s been crying for hours –or screaming into a pillow. It’s frayed at the edges, worn down to the nerve. And it’s not just sadness Bobby hears in it– it’s fear and terror.
    “I want to go home,” Buck whispers next, and it shatters something deep in Bobby’s gut.

    or: The 118 teaches Buck that family isn't about owing someone your organs, but about who brings you pie when you've given too much of yourself away.

    Summary

    Later—after he has drifted in and out of consciousness over and over, like rising out of a churning sea, first to the park ranger, who cannot stop crying, then in the back of the ambulance, and finally at the hospital, where the nurses speak to him in gentle voices that make him want to rip his own hair out at the roots and he finally stays awake, the pain too intense to allow him to drift back to the bottom of that warm dark water—Buck’s first clear thought will be, But it was all going so well.

    ***

    Buck is attacked on his day off. In the aftermath of everything that's happened - from Maddie's leaving to Eddie's breakdown - he decides the best way to deal with it is to hide it.

    It goes about as well as one would expect.

    Summary

    “Memory loss?” Evan frowns, because he wishes he had memory loss. He remembers pretty much everything about the last three hellish months of his life. At least, what he was awake for. “Like, amnesia?”

    “Exactly like amnesia. You seem to be missing a few years of your memory. You believe you are twenty-one years old, correct?”

    “Y-yeah.” Evan nods, mind racing, searching for the memories the doctor is telling him he’s lost.

    “You are currently twenty-seven years old.” The doctor says. “You’ve been living in Los Angeles for a while now, according to your boss. You met him earlier, although I’m not sure how much you remember.”

    “The guy with the rosary?” Evan’s voice catches. He remembers the stranger vaguely. He remembers being scared.

    __

    Or: Buck is injured during a call and wakes up as Evan. Evan's last memory is being held captive by a cult leader who kidnapped him while he was living in Peru.

    Summary

    Robert Nash was a worrier by nature. He worried for himself, he worried for his friends in AA, he worried for his team, he worried for that Sergeant Grant who always seemed to turn up at the right time. It came with the job description, he was responsible for a group of adrenaline-junkies willing to throw themselves into danger to save another life.
    He worried. A lot.
    With Buck? It was different, it extended further than his ability to perform his role or the connections he made in his life, he worried for the kid generally all of the time.
    Or:
    Bobby doesn't understand why he cares so much for Buck and why it feels so different but so familiar, he begins to understand when he realises how few people Buck has looking out for him, how small his support system is. Especially when he finds out through unfortunate circumstances that he's Buck's emergency contact.

    Summary

    If Buck’s being completely honest with himself, which he’s not, he really should have seen this all coming.
    Seven months ago, in the slap bang middle of winter, his loft lost heating. It wasn’t terrible, he spent so much time at Eddie’s or Maddie’s that he barely felt the effects. Maddie on the other hand was totally infuriated at his landlord. Sure, LA didn’t get particularly cold, but he was injured and needed to stay warm.
    Six months ago, his water stopped for a whole day because his landlord fucked up trying to do maintenance by himself.
    Four months ago, his rent got a hell of a lot more expensive, despite the fact that he was living off of sick pay.
    Two months ago, he got kicked out of his loft.
    -
    Or a post-lawsuit fic where Buck gets kicked out of his loft and feels he has no one to help him because he's upset everyone in his life (P.s. Eventually it turns out he's wrong).

    Summary

    “Unfortunately you are the sixth victim in a string of serial abductions and assaults spanning the Midwest."

    Evan Buckley's life is a sequence of hardships and challenges, but every time he manages to fight through and overcome. Being a victim (and survivor) of an assault long before joining the 118 is a part of his past he always intended to keep buried.

    It's not as if he remembers it anyways.

    Summary

    “You’re not even paying attention right now,” he growls.

    “Look, Eddie,” Evan tries, lifting his hands up in surrender. Eddie’s eyes trail from his eyes down to his lips, his chest, and then back up at him, and Evan doesn’t like the way it feels. Something about the entire moment feels uncomfortable to him.

    Eddie sets the bowl on the counter and puts his hands on Evan’s ribs, pushing him back towards the fridge.

    “Eddie, man, what’re you doing,” Evan stammers nervously.

    OR: Two hours before a date night with Tommy, Eddie turns up at the loft. A fight ensues, and Evan is violently sexually assaulted, left for Tommy to find.

    Together, they have to face the aftermath and healing process.

    Summary

    Every night, Carter finds himself in that room.

    He's trapped inside his own body, a prisoner slamming helplessly against the concrete walls as he re-enacts the event- crouching down to pick up the Valentine's Day card from Yosh, feeling the weight of the man behind him in a way he couldn't when it happened, and then…

    The knife. Twisting itself into his back, guided by a hand that won't listen to reason before it's yanked out again and thrust into a yet unmarred patch of skin. The pain is white hot, and his hand, when he pulls it from the wound, is slick with his own blood.

     

    OR

     

    Though he's mostly recovered physically from the attack, Carter's emotional baggage is becoming too much to bear.

    Summary

    A month after France and Frank Harkness, Slough House is floundering beneath the weight of grief none of them quite know how to deal with. Fortunately, Catherine has returned, and she’s determined to fix things — starting with River, who’s carrying a secret that’s affecting how he acts both with her and with Lamb — until she and River are kidnapped from Slough House by a group of former slow horses that have a very serious bone to pick with Jackson Lamb.

    It will be fine. Catherine knows that Lamb will come for River, and River knows that Lamb will come for Catherine, and until he does they simply have to keep the other alive long enough to be found. But what they’re not expecting is that these former slow horses don’t just want to hurt Lamb; they want to break River, and force Lamb to watch it happen.

    But the former slow horses have made a significant error of judgement. With every recording they send of River’s torture, the more determined Lamb becomes to rescue his boy, and when he finally does get River and Catherine back he is never going to let them go. It’ll be a long, difficult road to recovery, but they’ll walk it together, all three of them.

    Summary

    An imagining of the events surrounding Astarion's death and "rebirth" as a vampire spawn, as recollected in Cazador's private journals. Presented in a format as journals having been translated (from Kozakuran), abridged and annotated by Amanita Szarr. She rescued these specific volumes of her uncle's journal from the destruction of the Szarr palace, and translated them as a favor to Astarion, some time during or after the events in the game and in the related work "The Underdark Chronicles" (see link below). She felt he deserved to know the truth of the events surrounding his turning and subsequent enslavement.

    Summary

    Jaskier has zero intention of sharing the degrading experience of getting tortured. Ever. He’ll bury the memories and someday they’ll be as scabbed over as Caingorn was.

    Which had been completely, absolutely, fine. And the only reason that wound is bleeding a little now is because fucking Geralt came out of nowhere—after the most humiliating experience of his entire life—and reopened the fucking thing. But that’s fine because he’ll leave and return to the terror of his smuggling work and forget about Geralt all over again. There’s nothing hard drink and the constant danger of execution won’t get his mind off. Because there’s something therapeutic about fearing for one’s life that makes anything not of immediate concern go away.

    So yes, things were just fine before Geralt showed up.

    Two years post-Caingorn, Geralt rescues Jaskier from prison and sends him with Ciri to Kaer Morhen. However, Geralt suspects Jaskier is hiding serious trauma.
