    Summary

    And, here, looking at his best friend, he can see that something’s broken inside him, too. And, maybe it’s the therapy he’s had over the years, his sessions with Frank, but Eddie wants to talk to Buck. He wants Buck to talk to him. Buck, who just looks so fucking sad, still in his dress blues, one hand drinking the beer, the other coming up to loosen his tie.

    This morning, Eddie had noticed Buck tying, untying, retying the tie with breaths of frustration, fingers shaking. “Eddie,” he’d said lowly from across the room, and Eddie wouldn’t have even heard him if he hadn’t been watching. “I, uh, can never – I can never get this right.”

    *

    In the aftermath of Bobby’s death, Buck and Eddie need to learn to embrace change, settle into a new normal - a life without Bobby, and life navigating feelings for each other. A vision of what season 9 could be.

    Summary

    Chris stumbles across Eddie's teenage journal, forcing him to re-evaluate everything he ever thought he knew about his parents.

    -or-

    The second Chris saw the beat-up leather journal with “Property of Eddie Diaz” emblazoned on the front in a somewhat childish version of his dad’s familiar scrawl, he knew that he should put it back beneath the loose floorboard where it had stayed hidden away for probably a decade and a half. No doubt placed there as a way of keeping it hidden from the prying hands of two nosy younger sisters and parents that Chris was increasingly learning could be unbearably overbearing.

    But he didn’t want to.

    Summary

    She looks up at the sky, less at the twinkling stars and more at that big beautiful moon she’s always loved. It sounds way too woo-woo to say out loud, but that’s her girl, that moon. She’s always loved her.

    “Great speech,” she says. Not the moon, obviously. Shannon turns around to see that Taylor Kelly is the person speaking. Taylor Kelly in a very, very, very nice dress.

    Summary

    “What are you celebrating?”

    Buck’s voice made Eddie spin around with wide eyes, clamping his mouth shut. He probably looked like a deer caught in headlights.

    Buck raised a questioning eyebrow at him, and Eddie opened his mouth to say something, except he didn’t know what, because he couldn’t exactly tell Buck that the reason for their celebration was the death of his ex-boyfriend.

    And, listen. Eddie has no clue why his following response was the one to tumble out of his mouth. Maybe because he was thinking about Tommy, his brain was making the connection to ‘gay.’ He really has no other explanation.

    “My coming out.”

    Or: How Eddie celebrating Tommy's death leads to him having to 'pretend' to be gay.

    Summary

    At present, they were all sitting in the back of the engine, on their way to a pile-up on the highway. Buck and Eddie were sitting together, like they always did - did they always sit so close? - and Buck was chatting away about worms, or sperm, or something else wriggly, Chimney wasn’t sure, because Eddie… Eddie was just staring. The look in his eyes was so warm and fond that a marshmallow would melt in them.
    The neon sign got ten shades brighter. Chimney had to look away so as not to burn his retinas.
    Someone tapped him on the knee. He jumped.
    “You good, Chim?” asked Buck, an eyebrow raised.
    Eddie’s in love with you Eddie’s in love with you Eddie’s in love with -
    “Peachy,” Chimney said. He was sweating out of every pore of skin he had.

    *

    Chimney finds out that Eddie's in love with Buck, and tries to matchmake them so he doesn't have to keep the secret. He also goes a little mad in the process.

    Summary

    Eddie has no idea that one random phone call on a Wednesday afternoon would be the thing that changed his life so completely. He won’t understand the importance of it for several weeks, will completely forget about it after a while, but it sets off a ripple, one that grows into a wave and rewrites his life.

    Or: Weeks after returning from Texas, a single phone call changes Eddie's life, even if he doesn't realize it right away.

    Summary

    “Come on, you’re telling me you wouldn’t consider sneaking into a storage closet with me?”

    “Obviously, I would!” Eddie was whisper-yelling now, and Buck wasn’t sure exactly what point he was trying to make, but he was enjoying every second of this. “But one of us is going to have to have restraint and it has to be the—the one with the most experience.”

    Buck felt his mouth drop open in delight. “Eddie,” he admonished. “Are you calling me a whore?”

    “No!” said Eddie, looking increasingly flustered. “I just mean—clearly you have the power to do—” he gestured at Buck, “that, so you have the—the responsibility to, like, use it. Responsibly.”

    “Did you just quote Spiderman?”

    Eddie propped his elbows on the table and dropped his head into his hands, groaning dramatically. “I’m going to die. The first date, and I’m going to die.”

    “Been there, wouldn’t recommend it.”

    ---

    Buck and Eddie and the first date.

    Summary

    The team discover an Instagram account based on what the public has overheard from their calls. Hen and Chim become amateur detectives in their quest to uncover the the context of every quote, but this becomes difficult when it's increasingly clear they've been left in the dark about something.

     

    Based on the account @Overheard_LA and me deciding with all the insane things that the 118 say on calls, someone should be recording them for posterity.

     

    EDIT: This fic is now a MULTI_MEDIA FIC!!! I recommend if you've already read to just scroll through and look at the masterpiece fake Instagram screenshots. It is screen reader accessible.

    Summary

    "“My luggage got delayed coming in from Phoenix but it should be in tomorrow.”

    Eddie is, of course, not fine. He hasn’t been fine since he left for El Paso yesterday. He suspects he wasn’t fine long before that, but he was able to keep it beaten back with a stick. Not so much anymore.

    “That sucks.”

    They’ve been different since Eddie made the decision to move to El Paso a few weeks back. He could have sworn Buck was okay. He was okay in the kitchen that day, when he flipped the iPad over and unearthed Eddie’s tender familial burns. He was okay on the couch, the couch Eddie had to leave behind, the couch he mourns for reasons too complicated to think about. He was okay on the virtual call with the real estate agent. He was okay. They were okay.

    “Yeah, it really does. All of my underwear was in that luggage.”

    They don’t feel okay."

    Summary

    Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.

    She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.

    “Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.

    It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.

    “Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”

    Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

    Summary

    Stood like a statue inside of the audition room, it was very possible that Evan Buckley had managed to unlock a secret eighth ring of hell: mortification. Sure, he'd accepted long ago that he was the type of guy to dive headfirst into a pool without checking the depth, but this time Buck didn’t even know the pool existed.

    “Uhh…hi…hello.” Buck managed to mumble as he crept forward. The lady, her voice dripping with uncertainty, responded rather swiftly.

    “And you are…?”

    “Uh…Buck.” More confused looks. “I mean, uh, Evan Buckley. Sorry, so sorry.”

    or

    The one where psychology student Buck accidentally bumbles his way into getting cast in a main role on a TV show, and Eddie can't stand him from the jump.

    “Well, I hate to tell you this, then, but apparently that's repression.”

     

    He tries for a laugh. It comes out more like a croak.

     

    “You wouldn't be the first to accuse me of that.”

     

    “Yeah?”

     

    This is a mistake. This is— he should leave. He should put his stupid shirt back on, wish Vanessa good luck with whatever it is she’s dealing with, get in an uber and go home. And whatever the door is that’s slowly creaking open in his mind, he needs to shut it.

     

    He clears his throat. Tries to make his voice sound normal.

    Summary

    Physically, Buck was ready to accept a baby into his home. Mentally? He wasn’t sure. He knew he wanted this, wanted her. He had always wanted a baby, a family, but now it was actually happening, the legal documents signed, sealed, delivered, he worried that he wasn’t up to it.

    Panic raised as a lump in his throat, but as if he could read his thoughts, Eddie placed a hand on his leg. “This is good Buck, it's great!” it was such a simple sentence, but Eddie’s sureness was enough to dampen the panic, their eyes met and Buck grinned at him in response.

    “You think so?” he couldn’t help but ask.

    “You found her, isn’t that like a sign from the universe?” Eddie knocked their knees together.

    “You don’t believe in signs from the universe.” Buck shot back.

    “You do,” Eddie said softly, his gaze unwavering, “and I believe in you.”

    Or

    Buck finds a baby, Eddie finds himself.
