    Summary

    What if she called?
    What if he wouldn't have stayed away?

    The thing about secrets is — the bigger they are, the harder they are to keep.
    They grow, pressing against your ribs, crawling up your throat until you can almost taste them every time you open your mouth. One careless breath, and you might slip up.
    Rule Four had always been one of the hardest for Tony to keep — right up with Rule Twelve.

    Set between 11x02 and 13x24 (AU)

    Summary

    For some reason, everyone’s much more chill about Buck hooking up with Tommy than they are about him dating Rafa, which given all the drama around not letting Buck message Tommy when they broke up seems kind of fucked up. Rafa’s a genuinely nice guy, and they’re taking it pretty slow because of Chance, so it’s not like he’s rushing into a serious relationship for once.

    “I’m not saying he’s not nice,” says Hen exasperatedly.

    Chim exchanges a look with her before saying, “Honestly him being nice is kind of the problem.”

    “What is that supposed to mean?” asks Buck, righteously outraged.

    ----

    Episode tag to 8x12 Disconnected, where Buck ends up dating the single father from the first call, and everyone (up to and including Eddie) is super normal and cool about it.

    Summary

    The missive bounces off her thigh into the dirt. Alina reaches for it, her hands already shaking. It's the thin, yellowed paper carried by the scouting groups. There's blood on one corner.

    “Another whole town.” Zoya doesn't give her time to read. “Three of the scouting group were killed on-site. They had to put down a fourth in the night. He tried to hide his bite.”

    “We need another sun summoner,” says Genya, more gently. “Think how much we could do, Alina.”

    -

    A different type of terror has come to Ravka. One sun summoner will not be enough to hold back the tides forever. And everyone knows the best chance for a child to be a powerful Grisha is for it to have two powerful Grisha parents.

    Summary

    Buck doesn’t think that if he were to say, “I’m in a bad place”, that anyone would turn him away. Really, he doesn’t. The 118 has too many good, kind people for that.

    But every time he wants to open his mouth, to say something, to reach out to Eddie or Bobby or Hen or Chim, he hears Eddie yelling, “you’re exhausting.”

    —you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting—

    So each day he does his job and he laughs and he jokes and he pretends he’s the care-free goofball he’s always been. And each day he packs away his bruises and his worries, takes them home to his empty loft with its quiet rooms, and licks his wounds in silence.

    Summary

    This takes place just before the events of Episode 88.

    In which Darcy finally reaches out to Lydia--and we discover exactly who Lydia is thanking when she looks at the camera in 88.

    “Start with tomorrow,” he urges her. “If you could change one thing about tomorrow, what would it be?”

    “What are you,” Lydia sneers, “a one-man Make-a-Wish foundation? Do you go around making dreams come true for girls who are about to have the entire Internet leering at their naked bodies? Well, try this on for size, Darce-face. I want the sex tape to not be released. I want that site down. I want every computer that has a copy of that video to be smashed into bits.” She’s gaining steam as she talks. “I want every copy of it ever to burst into flame. And I want George Wickham—” Her face crumples, but her hands curl into fists. “I want George Wickham to tell me why he did it. After everything he did to me, I deserve that much.”
