    Summary

    The team discover an Instagram account based on what the public has overheard from their calls. Hen and Chim become amateur detectives in their quest to uncover the the context of every quote, but this becomes difficult when it's increasingly clear they've been left in the dark about something.

     

    Based on the account @Overheard_LA and me deciding with all the insane things that the 118 say on calls, someone should be recording them for posterity.

     

    EDIT: This fic is now a MULTI_MEDIA FIC!!! I recommend if you've already read to just scroll through and look at the masterpiece fake Instagram screenshots. It is screen reader accessible.

    Summary

    ““why did you go looking for Mr. Potter instead of turning to Professor Snape? I should think that since that’s his subject to teach, he would be the first person to pop to your mind when you’re in need of assistance.”

    Xenia squirmed a little in her seat. “Well…” She drawled out, unsure about whether she should voice her thoughts in the presence of one of Hogwarts teachers. It would be rather rude. “You see, it’s just that… I figured it would bother Harry Potter less, so – “

    Huffing, Fraser crossed his arms over his chest, giving Xenia a dry look. “Oh, please. There’s no need to go beating around the bush, is there? Just say the truth and admit that this man should never have become a teacher with the way he treats us.” He declared bluntly.”

    ---

    McGonagall decides to ask students why they decided to go to Harry for help with their Defense Against the Dark Arts struggles rather than Snape. It doesn't paint a very flattering picture of her colleague.

    Summary

    When he woke up, Eddie was making coffee and looking tired, but peaceful. Buck smiled before heading into the bedroom and pulling a bag out and packing things for Eddie, too.

    “What, uh, what are you doin’, Buck?” Eddie asked in confusion, holding two coffee mugs in the door. Buck reached over and grabbed his cup before heading to the living room again, Eddie trailing after in bewildered silence.

    “We’re going to get Christopher.” Buck said certainly.

    “Buck-” Eddie sighed.

    “No. You have the option, Eddie. You can come with me, or you can stay here and I’ll have him home in a few days. But he’s coming home.”

    “He doesn’t want to.” Eddie argued weakly.

    “So?” Buck arched an eyebrow at him. “He’s 14, he’s a child. You are a fucking adult, Eddie, his father, and you are letting your parents take your son and use him as a do-over for what they did to you. Now. You can either come with me, or you can stay here."

    Summary

    He should be scared.

     

    The thought passes through Buck’s mind and it’s true but he doesn’t feel a thing. There is a gun pressed against his head and Bobby looks terrified even if he’s hiding it well. Hen and Chimney look scared as well, looking up at him, frozen, from where they’re kneeled beside the kid. And Eddie, well, he doesn’t look scared exactly, but he looks angry and at least that is a feeling. It’s more than the numbness that is wrapping itself around every inch of Buck.

    or

    Buck is depressed and when his life is threatened during a call, things sort of slip out in the aftermath

    Summary

    "Eddie?" The blond mumbles, staring at the ground. Beside him, his best friend makes a questioning hum. Buck doesn't meet his eyes, feeling his heart begin to pound again.

    When he doesn't say anything else, Eddie knocks his shoulder against Buck's. "What's up?" He prompts, unaware. 

    Buck swallows, and then finally says, "I tried to kill myself last night."

     

    (Or, Buck's been struggling for a long time, and he finally breaks.)
