    Summary

    Shane is still learning that he doesn't have to be perfect in his own relationship. Ilya is still learning the rules of Shane's bad days. So when Shane tries to push him away after a crushing loss, it leads to a tense argument. But ten years of rivalry are no match for Shane’s tears; the second he starts to cry, Ilya folds like a house of cards.

    Or: Shane tries to starve himself as punishment for losing, Ilya tries to feed him, and it turns into a very soft night of pampering because Ilya is legally incapable of staying angry at a crying Shane.

    Summary

    “Uh, Ilya? More vodka?” David offers tentatively.

    “Sure, okay. Maybe one more,” Ilya says. He’s not entirely sure what's considered an acceptable drink limit for the occasion of ‘Surprise! Your son is gay and I’ve been fucking him in secret under the nose of the entire MHL and Scott Hunter in the hotel room next door, and I’m in love with him, actually,’ but given the look on his face, well - David might need the second drink more than Ilya does at this present moment.

    Summary

    It's five minutes into the Secret Santa exchange, and Eddie is panicking.

    He's not panicking because the envelope containing his love letter is currently in Buck's hands, folded edges falling victim to the prodding of Buck's restless fingers. No, he actually feels good about the letter. 

    What he does not feel good about is the fact that he missed a memo. A very important memo. A very important memo that would have entirely changed his approach to the letter-writing portion of this gift exchange. Because if Eddie had known that everyone was going to read the notes they received out loud, for the entire group to hear, then he might have left the love confession out. 

    or

    It’s scary enough for Eddie to write a love letter for Buck. The threat of a public reading of the letter doesn’t make it any better.

    Summary

    Once everyone heads off to the bunks after dinner, Buck wastes no time in dragging one of the stools from the kitchen over to the Tetris cabinet, where he, too, settles in as if he were getting into bed.

    The cabinet is new but the interface is a replica of the original, and when he boots the monitor up, Buck is faced with pixelated fireworks and a cartoon version of Saint Basil’s Cathedral. He nudges the red joystick and the main menu pops up. The left side of the screen reads YOUR GOAL IS TO FILL LINES!

    Buck cracks his knuckles.

    or, Buck plays Tetris. And a lot of it.

    Summary

    ——————

    “Please, just talk to me…”

    The crack in his voice would break Eddie’s heart; if there was anything left to break.

    “I can’t do this Buck—” His voice is thick, straining out of him, “I can’t. I just…I just…” He has to stop, to pull in a shuddering breath. “I don’t want you here.”

    He doesn’t mean it. As it’s coming out, he knows that it's not true. It hurts to form the words, and he can feel the hole in his chest growing bigger as he even considers Buck’s absence, but he can’t take it. He can’t endure the pain of Chris’ leaving with Buck’s eyes trained on his every move. That angel of mercy, radiating devotion, wouldn’t let him sink into the abyss of hurt that’s trying to swallow him whole, and he needs it, he needs it to take him. He needs to atone.

    ——————

    Christopher leaves, the door shuts, Eddie cracks open, spirals, falls, hates himself. Buck is there to pick up the pieces. No matter how hard Eddie tries to stop him. (They are in love with each other)

    Summary

    “I think Buck is pregnant.”

    Hen slots her glasses back onto her wrinkled nose and says, “What, can you smell it on him?”

    That shakes Eddie out of it a little. “What? No, his birthmark.”

    The wrinkled nose is paired with an eyebrow raise, and Hen tilts her head a fraction. “What about his birthmark?” she asks slowly, like she’s talking to a child or a mental patient.

    “It kind of…glows?”

    Hen, his current captain, his former partner, one of his best friends, looks at Eddie like he’s lost his mind.

    “Boy, if you don’t get out of my office so we can go home.”

    or, Buck is pregnant. Eddie just doesn't know how to tell him.

    Summary

    “Maddie thinks you’re in love with me,” Eddie states, and Buck nods once. “Are you?” he repeats—slower now, not as if Buck is stupid—never, not once, has he ever made Buck feel stupid—but as if he’s… encouraging him to… slow down. To process.

    “I-I love you,” is all Buck can stutter, along with as much of a shrug as he can manage in this position.

    “And I love you,” Eddie confirms—still slow. “But that’s not what I asked you, either.”

    Summary

    By the end of Eddie’s little nighttime routine, Buck’s not made any progress. Eddie puts his hands on his hips, eyes bright with amusement as he looks at Buck.

    “Need a hand with that?” he asks.

    Buck blinks at him. “What?”

    Eddie offers him his palm. Buck stares at it blankly for a second before Eddie’s gently prying his fingers off his toothbrush, stepping in between Buck’s legs. Buck has to look up to meet his eyes, and Eddie helps him along by tilting up his chin with one gentle finger.

     

    or, eddie brushes buck’s teeth for him because he’s drunk. buck gets hard about it.

    Summary

    Eddie heard a shout from somewhere in the street below. Neither of them moved. It was a small aftershock. They weren't going to die.

    But it felt like it, a little. Death had always been right around the corner, but now it was in the house. Sitting on the couch. Eating their cereal. They weren't going to die but maybe they were.

    Summary

    The year by the old calendar is 2025.

    Home is gone. Home is a failed rescue mission and an echo of a memory. Home is a lost boy living in a wooden house by the sea.

    But first, there was a promise. Christopher, when it's safe, I'll take you back to your father. Buck had all but given up on keeping it after the world had died and everyone in it. But just as some oaths refuse to be forgotten, so the same can be said about the endurance of love.

    Summary

    “Oh no, you’re not,” Eddie says. “You think I’m a bitch when I’m sick? You could put several cities worth of Real Housewives to shame.”

    Buck’s face is clearly torn between exasperation and amusement, probably about Eddie’s reality TV watching habits. He has been subject to more dramatic television than usual now that he’s cohabiting with Chris and Eddie full-time.

    “Get in the shower,” Eddie says firmly, before he can protest.

    “Not before you,” Buck says, just as firmly. He’s so fucking annoying sometimes. Eddie usually wants to kiss him about it.

    Summary

    “And then he basically accused me of being in love with you, which was so ridiculous that I kicked him out,” Buck finally says, out of breath and flushed with terror. “Which was the right move, because that was crazy, right? Doesn’t that sound crazy?”

    “What? Why?” Eddie asks over speakerphone, sounding not even a little horrified by the suggestion and in fact, more distracted than anything. “Wait, sorry, give me one second, I need to watch the recipe video.

    In which Eddie isn't as predictable as he seems, and Buck isn't as crazy as he feels.

    “Yeah, yeah, no worries, it’s all good,” Buck laughs as napkins are being shoved into his hands, “just a little spill, no harm d—,”

    Then he looks up. And it’s—

    ”Oh,” Marisol says.

    ”Oh,” Buck echoes, “uh,”

    “Um—,” she suddenly looks very alarmed, gaze flicking over her shoulder, scanning the bar, and Buck realizes—

    “He’s uh, he’s not here,” he rushes to say.

    Her wide eyes land back on his, blinking away her own shock, but clearly still at a loss.

    ”He’s…,” Buck finds himself continuing, “he’s not here. Anymore. Moved back to Texas. You’re good,”

    eddie’s in texas, buck’s handling it poorly. he runs into marisol. turns out the two of them have a few bad decisions of their own to make.

    Summary

    Buck doesn’t take his hands off Eddie’s shoulders as he glances over to Athena and Nash, who are watching the display calibrate. “How’d we do?”

    “See for yourself,” Athena says.

    Bad, Eddie thinks.

    But he can’t read her – doesn’t know what it’s going to say. For all he knows, he’s going to look up and the words Eddie Diaz Should Be Dead will be flashing across the screen. He half-expects it.

    He wants to brace Buck for it, for the disappointment – wants to explain that whatever has screwed his compatibility scores till now, this one is all on Eddie.

    “Oh, shit…” Buck whispers.

    Eddie lifts his head, finally lets himself look, and then takes an inhale so sharp he tastes blood.

    Oh, shit.

    Summary

    Buck sort of assumed that, at some point, he'd evolve out of being needy and insecure. And, to be fair, in some ways, he probably has. He feels a lot more confident existing in the world than he did when he was a kid. He's sure he has the right job, and he mostly thinks that if he got hurt badly enough that he couldn't be a firefighter anymore, he'd figure out another thing to do and another way to help people instead of spiraling like he did after his leg got crushed. He knows who he is, and he knows that he's valued for it. Sometimes, he even thinks stuff might someday be good with his parents.

    And then there's Eddie.
