Summary
“You know we love you, right?” Hen said, patting his leg.
“Yeah…” Buck said slowly, eyeing Chim warily as he perched on the coffee table, Bobby and Ravi taking the couch across from him.
“So, we’re speaking from a place of love when we say we’re worried about you.”
Buck furrowed his brow at Hen. “Why are you worried about me? I haven’t done anything.”
“That’s sort of why we’re concerned, buddy,” said Chim, clasping his hands together as he leaned forward. “We know it was hard for you when Eddie left.”
“It was hard for everyone,” Buck protested, picking at the price sticker on the back of his book. “We all miss him around here.”
“Yeah, we all curled up in the fetal position in the bunk room when someone finally threw away Eddie’s out-of-date yogurt from the fridge,” Ravi said under his breath, clamping his mouth shut when Bobby cleared his throat.
Or: Buck's coping just fine after Eddie leaves! The 118 and Maddie beg to differ.

Summary
“Now why do you have so many shirtless photos of Eddie on your phone?”
Buck fumbled his cell like an amateur circus juggler at the sound of Hen’s voice, only catching it mere inches from smashing on the ground. He turned around on the station’s loft couch, narrowing his eyes at her delighted grin. “It’s rude to sneak up on people, y’know.”
“How am I sneaking? I spoke three full sentences to you before mentioning the ‘E’ word," Hen replied, biting into her apple. “So… what’s with the half-naked photos of Eddie?”
“He’s not half-naked! He’s got his uniform on,” Buck protested, a flush rising up the back of his neck.
“Hmm, last time I checked we don’t usually attend emergencies wearing only our turnout pants and suspenders,” said Hen, taking another bite of apple with a smirk.
Buck flopped his head back against the couch with a put-upon sigh. “They’re for the firefighter calendar submissions, okay? We’re helping each other out.”
Or: 5 times Buck & Eddie wilfully ignored the underlying tension between them & 1 time they couldn’t, featuring opposite tropes.
Each chapter can also be read as a standalone.

Summary
“M’gonna fight Eddie’s mustache,” Buck said decisively, tongue lolling around mid-air as he attempted to locate the straw in his tequila sunrise.
Chimney lifted his beer bottle in solidarity. “I’ll bring the razor, bro.”
Hen sighed. “Why are we attacking the mustache all of a sudden? I thought you both loved it?”
“B’cause… I wanna peel it back like an apple sticker,” Buck replied almost angrily, taking a big gulp of his drink. “He’s… he’s all like, ooh, look at meeee with my stupid hot nose bangs,” he mocked in a voice nowhere like Eddie and more like Danny Zuko in a high school play of Grease. “Mr Sexy Mustache here to save the fuckin’ day all sexily.”
“Oh,” Chimney said, raising an eyebrow while Hen mouthed ‘nose bangs’ to herself in disgust. “Yeah, we’re in very different fight clubs.”
Or: 5 times Buck & Eddie were being ridiculous about each other, and 1 time they were made aware of their shared nonsense.

I have a feeling we're not in the 118 anymore... by WriteCoolUserNameHere

Summary
The day had begun as normal – or as normal as it could currently be, aka mourning the loss of Christopher’s presence (just over a month now), resisting the urge to punch Gerrard in the face (also just over a month), getting shit for his mustache (Chimney had a new celebrity lookalike for him every shift), and, of course, coming to terms with his not-so-best-friend-like feelings towards Buck, which both terrified yet exhilarated him.
Or: Eddie hits his head on a call and wakes up in a very eye-opening series of alternate realities.

Summary
“You know what? Maybe I don’t need to know,” Eddie stammered, feeling a sheen of sweat attack his upper lip. “Mysteries are fun. Love a good mystery. Unsolved Mysteries is my favorite show.”
“Eddie’s right,” said Buck with a tight smile. “And besides, tonight isn’t about us. It’s about my beautiful sister, her new husband and their wonderful marriage.”
“Oh, so you don’t want to see the footage of you ripping Eddie’s shirt apart then?” Maddie asked innocently, swallowing a laugh at the deep maroon of her brother’s face and Eddie’s sudden coughing fit.
“I hate you and I hope you get divorced,” Buck replied through gritted teeth.
Or: Buck and Eddie barely remember what happened the night of the bachelor party. The team are more than happy to provide the receipts.
