Summary
It started like this: Evan Buckley fell in love. He got his heart broken. His sister got kidnapped. His best friend left. He got another chance with his love and broke his heart in return. Bobby died. His family fell apart only to him.
Was this how it was going to end?

Summary
Jee-Yun grows up in the shadow of all the ghosts of all the people who love her. It is not a particularly easy way to grow up, no matter how much they might love her. (Mistakes may not repeat, but sometimes they rhyme.) The village of people raising her do help soften the blow a little, though.
Or: It's Jee's turn for the Buckley Generational Trauma

Summary
In the wake of another bust during his apartment hunt, Buck winds up at the place he feels safest - with Tommy. A shared night ends in a shared morning, setting Buck on a path of realization and growth. He has to examine where his place is and whether he can continue existing in the exceedingly suffocating environment of the firehouse that was once his home.
Choices must be made, and perhaps, it is for the best if Buck does like everyone says and is actually selfish.
- post season 8 AU where Buck gets back together with Tommy, questions his place at the 118, and gets to spread his wings.

Summary
After Bobby dies, Athena—seeking a change, and some sort of meaning in life—gets pulled onto the LAFD's Arson Investigation unit. It's been falling apart at the seams for years now. But she's given her pick of firefighters to fill it out, and she chooses the best of the best: Buck, of course, adrift and grieving; and Tommy, who's been grounded for insubordination and transferred to admin for a while.
Buck and Tommy dance around each other. Athena closes in on a serial arsonist. Things heat up from there.

Summary
Buck hadn't been at work in over two weeks. A fact that had him on edge. Where did the man go? Also, why hadn't he told anyone where he went? Lastly, why on earth did he get a random box in his locker with a CD and a map of Los Angeles?
or
“Hey, it's Buck-Evan Buckley. No need to adjust the volume on whatever it is you're listening to this on. It's me, live and in stereo. Except this time, there are no return engagements, no encore, and absolutely no request.”

Summary
It had only been four weeks since Bobby passed and Buck felt all of it settling harshly right into his bones. It felt like months had passed rather than just weeks and at the same time, like no time at all. It was no wonder he’d had to come out to the beach all on his own in the middle of the night.
Did he not ask what it was like for Eddie to find out?
Or, Buck is grieving, Eddie is the worst, and Tommy is the soft place that Buck needs to deal with it all. 8x17 and 8x18 fix it fic.

my spine split from carrying us up the hill (i'm just getting colour back into my face) by MS976

Summary
It took Buck a moment to process what he saw before him.
Eddie — his arms wrapped around some woman. His face buried in her neck and his fingers brushing her skin. The other man’s eyes widening — his face going pale as he realised they’d been caught.
Buck barely heard Eddie gasp Chris’s name — the boy motionless next to him as they stared at a ghost.
At Shannon.
At Chris’s mother — who Buck knew was dead.
Had been to the funeral and seen them both through the messy aftermath. Had helped this child mourn once and already knew he’d have to do it again.
Or: What if it was Buck instead of Marisol.

Summary
“Bobby came up with this,” Athena says, tapping a finger against the letter, “to try and help you. He really believed in you, Buck.”
“He was going to tell me to leave the 118?” Buck says.
“You know that's not the point,” She then mumbles more so to herself than to him, “Lord, he said this would be a fight, he just didn't say I would be the one fighting it.”
Or; weeks after Bobby's death Buck is facing a team that still treats him like he's fragile, a best friend that's taking his home back, and feeling more lost than he ever has. One of Bobby's last gifts to him is a way out and forward, so Buck takes it. He just doesn't necessarily tell everyone where he's going.
Evan Buckley as he never knew he could be: a story in five acts.

Summary
Everyone is drifting in the aftermath of Bobby’s death. In the midst of the grief and chaos, Buck plants his feet and becomes a pillar—the one holding everyone else up. They're grateful, of course, but they can’t shake the feeling that he’s being left to carry it all alone.
But he’s not. Not really.
Buck has someone—someone who’s there for the quiet, painful moments no one else sees. It just takes the rest of them a little while to figure out who.
Or; Five times the 118 realize Tommy’s been taking care of Buck, and the one time Buck takes care of Tommy.

Summary
The AU where Bobby adopted Evan when he was six years old, and then twenty years later Eddie joins the 118 and starts dating Buck... and no one initially realises that Evan and Buck are, in fact, the same person. Part 1 is the story of the identity shenanigans and the reveal.
Part 3 is a collection of missing scenes from the original story, while Parts 4 ('how it could have gone') and 5 ('another way it could have gone') are outtakes and depict two different scenarios where the reveal of Buck and Evan being the same person go a different way.
Part 2 'oh captain my captain' is a prequel and shows the 118 meeting Bobby and then later on Evan.
Part 6 'these are the days we've been waiting for' is the story of Buck's first day at the 118.
Part 7 'may you live in interesting times' is a sequel to that takes place about a year or so later, and Part 8 'I once was lost (but now I'm found)' directly follows on and is a full-length sequel and prequel to the main story.
This series as it is now is standalone and can be considered complete. The only reason I haven't marked it as such is because I do expect to be adding additional installments at some point in the future. Happy reading!

Summary
His plot at the cemetery was a great location. A large tree overhead to provide shade. He’d have a big gravestone soon, engraved to show just how much his people cared for him.
There would be a bench too. Somewhere to sit when his family came to visit.
Buck stood there as they lowered him into the ground. Kept standing there until he could hear familiar footsteps coming up behind him.
Tommy.
He moved then. Avoiding a conversation that wasn’t needed.
The cemetery was nice.
Buck was okay with it.
