Summary
“Asked me if I was the Chinese food delivery guy on my first day.” Chim contributed in a whisper, like he was afraid Buck might wake up and hear. Maybe he felt disloyal admitting it now. It was no secret to anyone paying attention how much Chim loved Buck, even if he often pretended to be exasperated with him.
Hen nodded solemnly. “One of the many people who wouldn’t even acknowledge me when I started.”
It was news to Eddie, and apparently Ravi too, but not Cap, who resolutely stared down at the table in front of him, shaking his head.
“Oh, so he fucking sucks.” Ravi contributed casually, never one to pull punches with his thoughts.
No one responded, but the agreement was in the air.
OR -
Eddie starts gathering information about why no one trusts Tommy. As he grows to hate their relationship more, he learns more about himself and what he wants.

Summary
Eddie reckons with the forces that have kept him stuck in the past on a holiday visit to his hometown. He has a choice to make, but not the one he believes he's facing down when he gets on the plane just before Thanksgiving.
Meanwhile, Buck can see the writing on the wall. This is how he loses his best friend. The same way he's already lost Christopher to the miles of distance between California and Texas. He's trapped in a cycle of loss and not sure how he's going to cope.
-⚔️-
In which I make El Paso matter, Eddie and Chris repair their relationship, and Buck goes through a period of self-discovery. Could all of their introspection lead Buck and Eddie to come crashing back together in a new way?

Summary
The first time he sets foot inside of a Church after he moves is when Shannon dies. He carries her coffin to the altar and doesn’t cry.
The second time is years later, when Buck gets struck down from the ladder by lightning, stops breathing for three minutes and seventeen seconds and Eddie performs CPR the whole way to the hospital. He tries to breathe life back into Buck’s body, and silently prays to a God he’s sure has forgotten and abandoned him. He cracks Buck’s ribs trying to get his heart pumping again, and when it does, Eddie cries.
The third time Eddie steps inside of a church it’s three pm on a Thursday and he has the day off. Buck is out with Tommy somewhere and can’t hang out, and Eddie can’t help the feeling of jealousy that runs through him like a wave. Even though Buck has been always at least three feet from Eddie for the past three days.
The third time he walks into the 'house of God', it’s four days after his parents came all the way from El Paso to take Christopher.
(or, chris leaves and eddie deals with all the things religion, grief and buck)

Summary
Eddie shrugs. “We can just order in, it's fine.” He turns to look at Buck, mirrors his position from his spot next to the sink. “You do know you don’t have to cook every night, Buck.”
“I feel bad.” Buck admits. “I’m staying over, you buy groceries, you do laundry, you drive us to work. I wanna repay you somehow.”
Eddie shakes his head. “You’re staying over because I asked you to. I do those things because you’re my best friend and I want you to be comfortable. You don’t have to do anything to repay me.” He pauses, looks right at Buck. “You do enough by just existing by my side.”
(or, buck offers his apartment to bobby and athena, and living with eddie is easy.)

Summary
Eddie clenches his jaw. When he looks at Buck again, his eyes are lit up with anger.
“Butt out, Buck. You're not his dad."
“You don't get to say that,” Buck replies harshly. “You don't get to come to me and tell me you put me in your will, and that you did it because you knew I'd fight your parents for Chris, and then get mad that I want to fight your parents for Chris.” Buck knows how to get angry too. Buck can fight too.
They can't both be the good cop.

Summary
Buck. And he wasn’t alone.
He was leaning down, holding onto a woman several inches shorter than him with her arms wound around his neck. He had his arms around her waist and his tongue down her throat, head tilted as he kissed her heatedly.
Eddie felt his breathing quicken as he watched, hearing the other inhabitants of his table laugh as they all saw where Ravi was pointing.
“Jesus,” Hen laughed, “God, is he trying to eat her?”
or
Eddie is moving to El Paso and Buck is handling it the only way he can think to - as Buck 1.0. It's not working.

Summary
“What’re you-” he began asking, cutting himself off when Buck released his hand from his grasp. He pulled his hand back to his chest, looking down at the new adornment Buck had given him.
He let out a little huff and rolled his eyes good-naturedly, climbing into the truck after Buck.
They sat with their knees pressed together, the entire team chatting idly on their way back to the station. Buck’s eyes drifted from Hen and Chimney’s bickering over the recent episode of Love Island to Eddie, intending to ask him when he would finally start watching it with them, but stopped himself short. Eddie was staring down at the back of his hand, pointer finger tracing the edges of the sticker Buck had bestowed on him, the slightest trace of a smile pulling softly at the corners of his mouth.

“How is it different, Buckley?” Chimney asks from where he is slowly merging into a bean bag by Hen’s feet.
“It’s about Love Languages.”

Summary
"I do kinda miss those thick, late-night milkshakes on your corner," Eddie says, his voice slipping through the line, slow and easy—warm enough that Buck feels it settle deep, deep within his chest. "What’s that place called again?"
"Cherry Top’s," Buck supplies, grinning into the phone.
"Right, yeah,” Eddie confirms, smile audible. “Took forever to get a sip.”
“Yeah, they uh…” Buck agrees, voice catching slightly. “They really make you work for those, huh?”
God, Buck doesn’t even know how they got here.
[Or: Buck and Eddie have a late night conversation about, uh... milkshakes.]

Summary
Buck should’ve never made the playlist in the first place, he knows that. It was a stupid thing to do because with how often they give each other their phones, Eddie was bound to see it eventually and start asking questions.
But Buck was drunk when he made it - wallowing in self-pity about how the man he loves will never love him back. He’s just grateful his drunk self had the sense to not actually title the playlist ‘Eddie.’
“Who’s ‘E’?” Eddie asks from where he’s sitting on the couch, scrolling through Buck’s Spotify account because Buck stupidly told him to put on some music and forgot about the goddamned playlist.
Buck freezes in his movements as his eyes meet Eddie’s, opened wide.
“Um,” he says stupidly, gaping. “No one.”
Eddie narrows his eyes at him in suspicion and pouts slightly, the way he always does when he doesn’t believe something somebody is telling him.
“You’re a terrible liar, Buck,” he states. “Why didn’t you tell me you were dating someone?”

Or: Buck accidentally invents a fake girlfriend and Eddie handles it about as well as you'd expect.

Summary
“Why are you the way you are?” he asks and Buck freezes in his movements. Eddie sounds serious — like he’s genuinely upset. With Buck?
“What, um,” Buck tries, clearing his throat awkwardly, a sinking feeling growing in his gut. “What do you mean?”
“‘s fucking annoying,” Eddie slurs, rolling his eyes again and leaning back to look at the ceiling as if it’s something interesting. “”’nd exhausting.”
Buck’s heart drops, remembering Eddie’s words in the grocery store all those years ago. Eddie just yawns and closes his eyes with a sigh.
“D’you know how exhausting it is to be around you?”
—
Or: Eddie is annoyed with Buck for being so very kissable but his drunk self isn't the best at phrasing things.

Buck’s not sure if the wetness on his face is just the rain or if he’s crying.
“Buck!”
Eddie’s voice makes Buck stop in his tracks and his breath catches in his throat. He turns around and sees Eddie running towards him and he’s getting closer and closer and Buck just really cannot face this right now, so he turns back around and starts sprinting.
“Buck!” Eddie yells again, this time sounding exasperated. Buck speeds up.
“What the— Buck!”
Why is Eddie making this so difficult?

Summary
Eddie looks back down at the dog.
“Buck?” he asks slowly, feeling slightly insane. Immediately, the dog barks again, more enthusiastically this time, like he’s voicing his agreement to Eddie’s question.
The dog — Buck — starts wagging his tail as he tries to walk in Eddie’s direction, but he’s so uncoordinated due to not being used to having four legs that he somehow ends up forgetting to move his front legs and stumbling over them, leading to a very inelegant fall that has him almost faceplanting onto the floor.
“Yeah,” Hen says with a small huff. “That dog is Buck, alright.”
Or: Buck gets turned into a Golden Retriever.

Summary
“I’m showing people Buck!” Eddie explains excitedly, turning his phone screen towards Chimney to show him a picture of Buck smiling at the camera. But after a moment, the joyful expression fades from Eddie’s face, replaced by something more somber.
“I miss him,” he says, his eyes downcast.
“Shit, is he dead?” the stranger slurs. “I’m sorry, man.”
“He is not dead,” Chimney hurries to clarify. “They’re just codependent. Don’t worry about it.”
Or: Buck and Eddie are engaged and have separate bachelor parties. Unfortunately, all either of them can think about is the other's absence.
