Summary
You're the guy who showed up," Eddie said firmly. "The guy who said yes when he needed someone. That's what matters, Buck. The rest? We'll figure it out. All of us."
From the living room came the sound of Chris's voice, patient and warm, explaining something about pigeons. Theo's small laugh—tentative, fragile, but real—drifted back to them.
"Chris is so good with him," Buck said.
"Chris learned from the best." Eddie's hand found Buck's shoulder, squeezing. "You've been showing him how to be patient and kind and present for eight years. Now he gets to pay it forward."
Buck nodded, not trusting his voice. Eddie's hand was still on his shoulder, warm and steady, and Buck let himself lean into that certainty. Into the promise of *we* instead of *I*.
Or Buck fosters Theo and he and Eddie basically co parent together and discover how in love they are.
Mostly canon except Bobby never died as it's my story so I can make that happen
