The Diaz Study on Long-Term Exposure to the Buckley Variable: Statistically Significant, Emotionally Catastrophic, and Unmodeled by DamnSterek
Fandoms: 9-1-1 (TV)
15 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
Abstract: In a longitudinal assessment of the Buckley variable’s impact on Dr. Diaz, we document a surprising decline in objectivity, an alarming spike in flustered rambling, and multiple methodological failures including—but not limited to—accidental staring, uncontrolled blushing, and an unprecedented disregard for professional boundaries. Despite repeated replication attempts, no reliable strategy for emotional neutrality was found. The data strongly support the hypothesis that Subject Buckley is hazardous to academic composure. Peer review pending. Further study (and possibly therapy) is recommended.
---
TLDR: A Buddie AU where rockstar!Buck crashes straight into professor!Eddie’s quiet life… and absolutely wrecks him (emotionally and physically).

Summary
“You’re saying,” Eddie murmurs, leaning in close till their noses brush and Eddie can count the striations of different blues in Buck’s eyes. “That you want to stud me, and for me to bitch you?” Eddie hears Buck gulp, a gargled little gguh sounds coming out of his mouth. It takes a moment, but Buck nods.
“Y-eah,” Buck whispers, sounding completely unconvincing. “Yeah, yeah, I do.”

Summary
"You look exactly the same," Eddie says with tears in his eyes. "How is that even possible?"
"I don't know," Buck says, his thumb swiping across Eddie's knuckles. "I don't understand it."
He may be the same, but looking at Eddie, Buck can see the years on him. His hair is a bit different, the creases by the corners of his eyes just a bit deeper. There's a new scar on his right hand that Buck hasn't seen before.He'd know these hands blind, but it takes him a moment to notice it still. His fingers brush over it once, and then again before he actually looks down and sees the thin golden band wrapped around Eddie's ring finger. Then he just—stares at it, stupidly, for a second. Before Eddie pulls his hands back, and leaves Buck's hanging empty in the space between them.
"You're married," he says.

Summary
The story follows the intertwined lives of Evan Buckley, a passionate literature teacher navigating the complexities of love and purpose; Eddie Diaz, a devoted father balancing the weight of his responsibilities and his true self; and Christopher, Eddie’s brilliant son with cerebral palsy, whose perspective brings light and resilience to those around him.
As Buck’s steady relationship with his fiancé, Tommy, begins to show cracks, and his bond with Eddie and Christopher deepens, he is forced to confront what truly matters.
__________
Maddie didn’t spare him. She never had, and she wasn’t about to start now.
“Are you happy, Buck? Like, really happy?”
Of course, being him, Buck hesitated.
“Of course I am. Why wouldn’t I be?”
When she spoke again, her voice was delicate, as if she feared the mere tone of her voice would snap her brother’s line of sanity.
“I just want to make sure you’re following what your heart truly wants.”

Summary
“Buck?” Eddie asks when he opens the door. “What’s- is that a baby?”
Buck doesn’t know what to say other than, “Help.”
Buck's running late to work when he finds the baby on his doorstep, and that pretty much sums up this portion of his life. Now he must figure out what to do, how to do it, and why doing it with Eddie gives him a feeling he can’t shake.

Summary
“It’s Eddie.” At her expectant look, he scoffs. “Taylor. Even you have to admit. He’s great. He’s funny, he’s a handsome firefighter, and most normal people would find what a wonderful dad he is attractive. He sent me a photo of the sweater he was going to wear tonight, and he looks really hot!” Buck wags his finger. “Claudia is missing out, I’m telling you.”
Taylor doesn’t reply for a long moment, long enough that Buck starts to worry.
“What?” he asks.
“Nothing,” she says, in a way that doesn’t sound like nothing.
Buck tries to set up Eddie. It goes well for absolutely no-one involved. (a 5+1 fic)

Summary
Eddie can’t move. Like this, Buck is illuminated by the sunlight streaming through the window; dust motes shimmering around his head, his hair haloed in gold. Beautiful, Eddie thinks. And to his surprise, he doesn’t feel any sort of guilt about doing so.
Except — he should. Because Buck is dating Tommy, and he’s happy, and Eddie would rather go to his grave repressed and miserable than ever take away from Buck’s happiness.
Or: Eddie starts to untangle his complicated feelings about himself, and Buck. Mainly Buck.

Summary
“Why the fuck are you even in this loop? This day isn’t about you.”
“Well, I die,” Eddie comments idly, not sounding as offended as he maybe should be. “Haven’t you heard? I’m always dying.”
“That’s not funny.”
Eddie shrugs, not really agreeing or disagreeing. It’s a few seconds before he says, eyes still closed, “Maybe I’m here so you’re not alone.”

Summary
“Eds,” Buck sounds half exasperated with him, and half interested and that’s enough to make Eddie want to push on with the plan. “It would have to be someone who knew me so well that everyone would believe we were married. No one could know the truth and who would be willing to do that? I couldn’t ask anyone and I…”
“You don’t have to ask,” Eddie says it quickly, before Buck can say anything to make his tenuous grasp of his self confidence vanish. “I’ll do it.”
****
Buck needs help; to get his inheritance money he has to be married. Eddie offers to help, because that’s what best friends do, right? He can pretend he’s not woefully in love with Buck, surely?
Or the fake marriage AU that no one asked for but got in my head.

Summary
Eddie feels his life is a mess, with struggling to adjust to civilian life, being woefully out of touch with his team and the struggles of single-fatherhood. The little stability he has gets upturned when he mistakes famous Lonestar actor, Evan Buckley as an adrenaline junkie at the scene of an accident.
Suddenly, Eddie is unable to escape the Lonestar fans, but eventually finds an outlet with his journey into fandomhood. This would be a great way to cope with his PTSD if Evan Buckley didn't keep showing up in his life, making his journey into fandom a little more complicated.
A love letter to the 911 fandom.

Summary
“What’s this?” asks Buck, picking up a pamphlet from the loft’s kitchen counter.
“I’m pretty sure you can read, Buck,” answers Chim, popping his gum. Usually, Buck wouldn’t be irritated by that, but Chim’s the interim captain due to Bobby’s cruise, and everything gets on his nerves.
“I can read,” Buck huffs. “I’m just confused. How does this work?”
He looks down at the pamphlet again. The deep red letters that say, are you a first responder looking for a buddy who understands your woes? — Fireapp’s got you covered!
_____
OR Buck joins a support app for first responders and matches with a firefighter who has PTSD and a kid who likes giraffes, apparently.

Summary
eddie's not entirely sure he believes in getting help, at least not for himself. there's only so much healing to be had for a body torn apart by bullets, for a mind that's only half there, for a man who's been leaving pieces of himself behind all his life with nothing to take their place.
except, as it turns out, falling apart happens in increments, and healing does, too: it happens when you gnaw a hole in your lip trying to keep quiet only to have the words escape; when you realize that the ghost you've been seeing out of the corner of your eye is yourself; when your best friend smiles, and you allow it to take your breath away.
it happens through the smallest of things: bird feeders, and cacti, and pasta shapes.
meanwhile, the world goes on.
