Summary
“Congratulations, Alexander,” he said one evening, laughing as he poured wine. “By stripping you of your runes, the Clave has created its worst nightmare: a brilliant, well-informed, free Lightwood with nothing to lose and a very sharp tongue.” Magnus shook his head and laughed again, “The law is the law! Oh how I love the fact that you are hoisting the Clave by their own petard!”

Summary
“Hey,” Braden said with a snap of his fingers in Bobby’s face. “Don’t worry about him. He’s fine. So long as you behave.”
But that was the thing about being exposed to strangers. They saw but they didn’t know. Bobby was worried about Buck but he was always worried about Buck. Every call, every bad day, every good day. Buck was on the forefront of his mind right next to the kids and Athena.
He should’ve sent Buck home that morning.

Summary
What if during the tsunami events, Chris is never found because that woman, instead of bringing him back, takes him to make up for the loss of her own kid?
Buck blames himself for losing Chris, and Eddie hates himself because he can’t help but blame Buck for losing his son even when he knows that a natural disaster happened. Eddie finds a way to move on, going back to the military, but Buck can't let go.
He gives up everything, his time, his house, his savings, to continue searching for Christopher. He never asks to come back to the 118 and sells his body to strangers to pay for everything.It's been 3 years and his life is a mess, but like they say, it's always darkest before the dawn.

Summary
Still off balance, Buck slams his left heel onto the roof, heaving forward to catch the collar of that yellow shirt. And there’s no conscious decision making here. It’s all instinct, and he’s grateful for it. If he’d given his overzealous mind the chance to consider another way, he would have missed his shot. Instead, his arms hurl the boy into the hands of another survivor...
And his right foot misses the edge.
OR
Buck catches Chris before he rolls off the firetruck, and it's him who falls back into the retreating waters of the tsunami. Unconscious and seriously injured, he's unaware that his team has been searching for him, never giving up as the days pass.
