    Summary

    They hadn’t meant to find each other.

    It was completely accidental, a boringly mundane moment. All they’d done was look at each other.

    At the same time.

    Across the cafeteria.

    And it clicked.
    --------------
    Steve Harrington is wasting away at Scoops Ahoy, striking out on every girl that comes by, when an unlikely duo walks through the door. Billy Hargrove and Eddie Munson are trouble separately, but together they pose an even greater mystery. One that Steve doesn't even want to begin to solve. So why can't Steve just tell them to fuck off, and why is he leading them to the break-room to "talk", and why are they looking at him like he's gone and hung the moon and painted the stars?

    -or-

    Billy and Eddie are weak and Steve is the most delectable thing on the menu. And also there's time travel.

    Summary

    Steve is happy. Because life is good.

    It's perfect.

    Or it would be, if not for the one thing he wishes he could change.

    The one, big mistake he made along the way.

    The one dream his past self had, that would’ve been worth chasing.

    Eddie.

    Summary

    Steve is wearing Eddie’s clothes, and his hair is so messy he barely looks like a Harrington at all. But when Wayne looks at him, he can see his parents. Catherine’s eyes and nose. Richard’s mouth. Catherine’s hair. But then Steve freezes, eyes finding the cake as Wayne finishes with the candles, and they widen, shining as he stares at the flickering flames and white frosting and colorful sprinkles, and his parents are nowhere to be found.

    Podfic of mismatched candles by ghosttotheparty.

    Summary

    Steve cries the first time he sleeps with Eddie.

    He doesn’t mean to, isn’t expecting it at all, but – but it’s this.

    It’s everything.

    Summary

    All of them had agreed that going back to Indiana was necessary for the tour, but they didn't expect to sell out the Ruoff within two days of their tickets being on sale. They broke a record for the venue, and a record for themselves with the largest crowd at any of their shows.

    But being back in Indiana was bittersweet.

    They all hated it, Eddie most of all, but it's where they became Corroded Coffin, it's where their families were. And apparently a lot of their fans.

    They refused to go back to Hawkins, though. Their families would have to come to them.

    Summary

    The thing was, the 118 was full of gossips.

    Eddie had been at the station less than a week before Hen and Chim wrangled details about his “hot young thing” from him (“Buck is only 4 years younger than me, he is not a ‘hot young thing’!” Eddie complained.)

    And Bobby was open about his worries for his son’s lack of direction and the secrets he appears to be keeping (“I just wish I could help Evan find the thing that gives him purpose,” Bobby lamented.)

    It just made it all the more ridiculous (and horrifying) when Eddie realizes he’s been dating his Captain’s son this whole time (“Defiling his baby,” Chimney cackled, because he clearly wanted Eddie murdered.)
    --
    Or, the AU where miscommunication abounds as Eddie seeks advice about his new relationship, Bobby despairs over his adopted son's career prospects and his refusal to talk about it, and Evan Buckley-Nash juggles training at the fire academy, building a family with his new boyfriend, and trying to work out how to tell his overprotective dad that he's already chosen the life he wants, actually.

    It takes a goddamn tsunami, of all things, to get the story straight.

    Summary

    It’s a well known fact that Buck is a good guy. Everyone knows that. Hell: the LAFD as a whole probably knows how good of a guy Buck is. He did save a dozen people during the tsunami while he was off duty while he was recovering and on blood thinners. A feat that the 118 hadn’t been aware of until one year after the tsunami, when one of the victims spoke up and named him as Firefighter Buck. The LAFD had recognized him for his bravery and Buck? He’d brushed it off like it was nothing.

    So yeah, Buck’s a good guy. A great guy. But does he know how great he is? You would tell him and he would probably brush it off and tell you he’s just as good as everyone else.

    The 118 know this, of course they do, but it all starts to come into clarity for them on a
    stormy day when Buck shows up to work looking like a wet dog and one by one, they notice the little things that Buck does for them.

    Or: a 7+1 where the 118 realize just how GOOD Buck is. Comfort, no hurt.

    Summary

    Eddie doesn’t let himself eat sweets. Says he doesn’t deserve them.

    Buck disagrees—with cinnamon, powdered sugar, and every quiet act of devotion he can offer.

    This is the story of how one batch of cookies turned into a kitchen full of love, a drawer full of notes, and a backyard wedding under the stars.

    Soft mornings. First kisses. Burnt flan. Healing hands. And joy—layered slow and sweet like dough rising in the warmth of home.

    Summary

    Eddie wants to call out for Buck. Wants to scream. Wants to let Buck’s name break out of his chest like a wolf howling for the moon. A frantic, instinctive thing - a part of him, like his blood and bones and heartbeat. Buck’s name wraps around Eddie’s tongue like barbed wire; it would make him bleed if he let it fall from his lips - if he let his terror become something tangible.

    He bites down on it, keeps it clenched between his teeth, hides his fear behind the mask of professionalism his turnout gear allows him to wear.

    Summary

    Three weeks after Eddie leaves for Texas, Buck gets a call in the middle of the night from a trauma center in El Paso. Eddie was in a serious car accident and has been rushed into surgery for a skull fracture. Buck rushes to Texas, finding that things are even messier than he imagined, and that's before Eddie wakes up and confesses that he's not sure it was actually an accident. That he might have done it on purpose. So Buck does what his parents never did for him: he steps in, all the way, and helps put his little family back together.

    Summary

    Tommy broke up with him, Eddie's leaving, Chris is already gone, and Buck is feeling that old, dangerous urge to just leave. To get in his Jeep and not come back so he doesn't have to deal with any of it. But he doesn't want to be that person again, so he goes to Bobby, desperate to fix it in another way. Any way.

    When Buck doesn't show up for a shift, Eddie's left reeling, forced to confront the fact that he may have irreparably hurt his best friend by being just another person in the long line of people that left Buck behind.

    --
    Or:
    Buck doesn't know how to cope with everything going on in his life, so he takes a temporary assignment on a wildfire in Montana to clear his head. In a lot of ways, it works, until he slams right into some realizations about his past.

    Summary

    The boy’s face paled as understanding took hold of him. Carefully, he looked around then stepped forward. He threw more glances at the surrounding area, before he said in a whisper, “I need, I need a pad, please.”

    Hen’s mind blanked as she registered the words, “what?”

    Summary

    The table was crowded, everyone digging in, conversations overlapping. Eddie and Hen were arguing about some documentary, Chim was telling Ravi a ridiculous story from before his probationary days, and Buck was half-listening to all of it, happily stuffing his face.

    "Buck, pass the salt?" Bobby asked, not looking up from his plate.

    Without thinking, Buck grabbed it and handed it over. "Here you go, Dad."

    Fuck.
