Summary
The people of the town nestled at its base tell stories, and have addressed the forest by many names. Some call the forest a god, a creature, a monster. Some of their stories tell of the forest being kind and forgiving, patient as it assists lost hikers find their way out. Other stories depict the forest as intentionally cruel, a monster that prays on the flesh of weaker beings.
Both versions are correct. The forest is both kind and cruel, and will act with both kindness and cruelty. A monster and a god. Better, a monstrous god.
So when the last breath left the broken shell of a boy buried within its muddied branches, the forest decided to grant its wish.
"- love him for me." And so the forest did.
As the dying boy reached his quivering hand up to the forests canopy, the forest reached back.
And thus the forest became Evan, and Evan became nothing.
Or: Eddie finds there's something not quite right about his best friend. Buck's just trying to remember he's alive.

Summary
“So,” The Devil drops Buck’s hand, clapping together its own and looking around like it's trying to suss out what this summoning is all about, as if it doesn’t already know, putting on the mask of humanity for Buck’s sake, “what did you call me for? What favor can I do for you that you will pay back in return?”
The question brings a little reality back to Buck. His parents words, his childhood, the reason he was born making themself known in his brain and bones once more. Buck frowns, unsure how to phrase it, unsure if it's a one prompt and done situation or if he’s going to be asked clarifying questions, “I’d like to be loved.”
If the Devil has eyebrows, Buck’s pretty sure they’re raised.
“Buck,” the Devil says, like Buck is an idiot, “you cannot ask for something you already have, that is not how this works. Do you truly not think you are loved?”

Summary
“It’s like a bad joke: how many firefighters does it take to put out a lab fire? Two, but you gotta put them in a time loop first.”
“That doesn’t even make sense.”
“Give me another loop, I’ll workshop it.”
Ravi and Buck make it out of the lab. They're the only ones that do. But you know what they say-- if at first you don't succeed, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try, try again.

Summary
“Eddie, you’re scaring me,” Buck says in the quiet of the room. “Do you-- do you know what day it is?”
“Friday,” Eddie answers, tongue thick like his throat is stuffed with cotton.
“Yeah,” Buck confirms. “And-- do you know my full name?”
Eddie swallows. “Evan Buckley,” he says definitively, but--
He finally turns to look at Buck’s face, and it’s like he’s waiting for Eddie to keep going. Like Eddie had gotten it wrong. Buck’s face melts, his brows pinched together, and Eddie--
He doesn’t know what the hell is going on.
-----
Eddie loves every version of Buck. And Buck? Well, he’s starting to realize every version of Buck loves him right back. If only Eddie could get back home to tell him that.
