    Summary

    “I hope you don’t plan on hitting me with that,” comes a voice from behind him and when he turns around, he drops the bat out of shock.

    It hits the ground with a clank, and he hears two sets of footsteps rush around the corner from the kitchen and Eddie knows, then and there, that he’s truly fucked.

    “What the fuck are you doing here?”

    Adriana cocks her eyebrow at Eddie as she walks out of the bathroom. “We’ve been worried about you,” she says, “you’re not returning either of our calls.”

    or, Eddie's sisters come to visit. "To see the sights," they say. ("Proof of life," Eddie thinks).

    Summary

    After Christopher comes back from Texas, Eddie makes an important decision: he is not going to blow up his life anymore. He will not be making mistakes, he will not be screwing up, he will not be having emotional affairs with the doppelgänger of his dead wife. He is going to be logical. Make good decisions. Use the strategies he’s learned in therapy even though he’s complained to Frank a million times that breathing exercises only piss him off more. Still, he’ll do them, because he is a logical, rational person. Or, at least, he is from now on.

    Summary

    There’s something wrong with him.

    Like, massively, catastrophically wrong with him. He should probably be studied, Buck thinks. Studied and locked far away from everyone else to stop him from doing stupid shitty things that hurt the people around him.

    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.

    (or: the entity often affectionately referred to as the unrepression fic.)
