Summary
What if Buck finally realized after the humiliating blowout, on how Eddie said what was wrong, how he made everything about himself and how Eddie called him exhausting throughout the years they were friends (yes, past tense) and abandoned his plans to sublet Eddie’s place. He still needed a place to live and managed to find a run-down place in North Hollywood that needed TLC.
This is a story where Buck builds back his life one step at a time and heals himself.

Summary
Ben Parker sighed as he looked up into The Thing's eyes, so expressively human in spite of the rest of his rocky appearance.
“My fifteen-year-old nephew--who's practically my own little boy!--” he choked out with a tight voice, “h-he can't pass for human anymore. He's scared, and he's isolated, and he just needs someone else to talk to! Someone who can understand. Please."
_____
Some alternate realities are unrecognizable, and some are indistinguishable. This one lies somewhere in between.
Peter Parker's life was derailed when he mutated into a strange human/spider hybrid, and he knows that's not the way things went down for him in other realities. Still, he's determined to forge a new path and make the best of it. Sometimes "the friends we made along the way" really is the greatest treasure anyone could ask for.

Summary
Bobby grabs Buck's arm, slowing his movements until he turns to look at him. "I wasn't aware that was something we needed to keep in mind- when did this start?"
Buck can see the amusement in his eyes, no doubt thinking this is just another one of his random ideas. Still, he can't lie to Bobby.
"When I was 19," Buck says, ducking his head down. Something flickers across Bobby's face, gone faster than Buck's tired brain can catch it.

Buck's a vegan. The firefam just wants to make sure he eats.

Summary
Ohhh, David realises as he gets handed a plate. Okay, I got it. He was surprised that Bobby’s son hadn’t come up when Michael first mentioned his children given how much emphasis he put on the positive co-parenting relationship their family unit strived to maintain. But then again – Buck was obviously much older than Michael and Athena’s two children if he had a child the same age as Harry. The step/co-parenting dynamic would clearly be completely different than it was with May and Harry.
Or,
The one where David is determined to prove that he’s in it with Michael for the long-haul, and that includes accepting and caring about the children of the Grant-Nash household. All 3 of them.
(And Athena and Michael laugh more than they have in months, Bobby is sheepish, and David learns a bit about chosen families).- Language:

Summary
“Wait, you need a sitter?” Chimney says. Eddie nods. “Maddie’s brother got back in town a few nights ago, he’s looking for work.”
Eddie frowns. He doesn’t know much about this mysterious brother of Maddie’s – doesn’t even really know much about Maddie, either, aside from being Chimney’s girlfriend – but he’s pretty sure every time he’s been brought up in conversation it’s not been particularly inspiring. “Is this the brother who flunked out of college because he spent all his tuition on a motorcycle?”
Chimney colours a little. “Um. No?”
or, Buck babysits Christopher and Eddie is—fine about it, actually.

Summary
Eddie bit his lip, the look in his eyes forcing contact more than Buck would have liked to admit. ‘Buck, how the hell did you know that kid was behind the basement wall?’
Buck stiffened, gaze hardening. ‘Are you asking me if I put a kid in danger?’
Eddie raised a hand. ‘Never. I’m asking if there’s something you’re not telling me about you.’ He paused. ‘Something to do with New Orleans.’
Buck's a warlock.
