    Summary

    “Can I help you?” Tommy asked, peering up and down the street to see if, perhaps, they needed help, wondering why they'd knock on his door out of all the houses on this street.
    “Are you Thomas Kinard?” the boy asked, his voice a little deeper than Tommy had anticipated.
    “Tommy. Yeah.”
    The two kids exchanged a look.
    “I'm Benny. This is Holly. Patrick Kinard is our father.”
    Tommy's hand reached out for the door frame, trying to hold his body up as his knees threatened to give out. The world around him shifted, a violent, seismic tremor that ran through his very core. For a moment, he couldn't breathe.
    And then Benny said, “You're our brother.”

    Summary

    “Thanks,” Tommy says softly, taking the records. “Sorry.”

    “You keep saying that, but I don't know why,” Buck says, aiming for teasing and just sounding as concerned as he feels.

    Tommy's lips press together, and he blinks right before his eyes get shiny. “My father died last week.”

    Buck remembers the shocked, numb feeling that followed him for days after Bobby died. Weeks, really. But he knows Tommy had a complicated relationship with his dad, even though he rarely talked about it. Just like they rarely talked about anything.

    “I'm sorry,” he says, even though it feels insufficient. “Did you eat today?”

    --

    Buck runs into Tommy and helps him navigate the complications of grief and final arrangements.

    Summary

    In the end, it wasn't anyone from the 118 who pulled Buck out of his depression-fueled haze. Not Maddie. Not Athena or May or Harry. Not Tommy, or even Buck himself.

    It was fucking Sal DeLuca.
