    Summary

    "Would you dance with me?” Buck asks, speaking so quick that the words seem to morph into each other, as if that five word question would be one word, “I mean you said you loved it and you haven’t been able to do it and the wikipedia article I skimmed through said you need a partner–”

    “I’d love to,” Eddie says, cutting him and his rambling off, without even really thinking about it, but it’s the truth.

    Of course Buck has already read the ballroom article on wikipedia, probably the first person ever to read it, and of course he will dance with him, of course he wants to dance with him.

    Summary

    Buck’s speaking again, telling him, “Go dry your hair, baby.”

    And like, he’s stuck in his daydream. Completely crazy about it. So it’s not exactly his fault that he doesn’t register what Buck said until he’s in the bathroom again.

    He straightens his shoulders out and looks at his reflection like maybe he’s actually lost it, but, no, those were real words coming from Buck, who is also real, so—

    ...or, how an accidental pet name, a thoughtful dinner, and a shared shirt gets their shit together.

    Summary

    Buck wants Eddie to smile like this every day, all the time, so it never becomes only a memory. Buck wants to keep it to himself and never let anyone look at Eddie again.

    “Eddie,” Buck sighs again, because it’s the closest he can get to I love you. The lights turn to green, and Eddie turns away. “You fucking sap.”

    Buck plans to spend the week showing Eddie how much he loves him. Apparently, Eddie has the exact same idea.

    Summary

    Eddie has never put any faith in personality quizzes. Buck, however, loves them, just as he does every other curiosity-driven deep dive into the vast pool of knowledge on the World Wide Web.

    “This one is different though,” Buck claims. He’s been trying to convince the whole crew to take a new test all morning.

    “How is it different, Buckley?” Chimney asks from where he is slowly merging into a bean bag by Hen’s feet.

    “It’s about Love Languages.”

    OR

    Eddie's love language is acts of service and Buck takes full advantage of this information.

    Summary

    “You’re not made of metal. I— I don’t know the limits of what you’re made of. I don’t know how much is safe contact, and when it turns into— when you— when I—

    This is the part where Noah is supposed to get it. The part where he’s supposed to understand the depth of what Mirage has just told him, where he realizes the danger he’s in if Mirage so much as simply moves wrong at the wrong moment, the moment where he lets go and never comes near him again. He waits; waits for it all to click into place in that biological processor of his, waits for the moment he pulls his hands back to himself, waits for his face to morph into entirely justified fear.

    “I could break you, Noah, I could…”

    He’s not prepared for Noah’s expression to go soft.


    There's only one way for someone to learn how much strength to use when handling something, and that's through experience.
