   Summary

   This is pre-canon, slow-burn AU, Buck, arrives at Station 118, carrying more than just the burden of being a new Probational Firefighter, he’s a decorated Navy veteran with no support system, and a past he has no intention of sharing. All he wants is a fresh start, but in a firehouse ruled by the bitter Captain Gerrard, survival is more than just a job requirement.
