    Summary

    “You got a verse for that, too?”

    Once again, Dennis pauses to think, willing his futile diploma into good use. He tries to stay focused as he meets Robby’s patient gaze, but the sight leaves his heart kicking erratically against his ribs.

    “‘Come now, and let us reason together. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; if they’re red like crimson, they shall become like wool.’”

    “Jeez, Whitaker,” Robby huffs, elated. “You got the whole book memorized?”

    “Something like that.”

    Robby and Whitaker keep running into each other at the hospital's chapel.

    Summary

    “Have a great day at school, buddy. Don’t forge any sick notes for a while, your dad’s going to be suspicious of you now. Love, Buck.”

    He slips it in the packed lunch he put away for Chris in the fridge, and then pauses. He pushes the fridge door wider, and smiles. Grabs the pen, writes another note. Satisfied, he tucks it into another packed lunch, and heads back to the living room.

    ***

    Buck starts leaving notes for Eddie. Eddie writes notes for Buck right back. They were always going to end up writing their own love story.

    Summary

    Buck is fucking frozen. His mouth is dry, and his brain is blank except for oh no, oh fuck reverberating in his frontal lobe. He can’t answer. He feels the pressure against the metaphorical closet door, the hinges creaking against the weight of the boxes crashing down.

    “Are those… hearing aids?” He registers Eddie's voice through the ringing in his ears.

    It takes him a moment before he can finally whisper it out. He feels his head nod against his will.

    “Yeah.”

    The door gives out.

    or: how a conversation about tardigrades results in buck grappling with a disability he's suppressed, getting hearing aids, and realizing that the family he craves has been there for him all along. in that order.
