Summary
“What,” Tony says softly but with a great depth of feeling, “the actual fuck just happened?”
“I believe, Sir,” JARVIS pipes up from the phone in his pocket, an unnecessary amount of what sounds like glee in his voice, “that you’ve once again managed to maintain your closely guarded secret identity. Truly your subterfuge skills know no bounds."
“You’re an asshole J,” Tony mutters back as he reaches up to rub at his temple. He either has a headache coming on or a blood clot. At this point he’s honestly not sure which he’d prefer.
"I did learn from the best, Sir,” JARVIS tells him sunnily.

Summary
"Hear me out," Buck said. "Clearly, both of us are sick of dating other people. And we're a good fit, in pretty much every way that matters. So what if we're not in love? We don't need to be in love to be happy together."
Eddie frowned. "So basically, we'd be boyfriends, without benefits?"
"Yes!" Buck snapped his fingers. "Like platonic boyfriends! We'd get all the benefits of a relationship and none of the heartbreak."
And maybe Eddie had finally lost his mind, or maybe it was from all the alcohol clouding his judgment, but the idea of it didn't sound half as crazy as it should have.
***
After Buck’s and Eddie’s dates both end with disasters – proving once again that maybe dating just wasn’t meant for them – they decide to simply settle for each other. If there was one person in the world they'd ever trust with their hearts, it was each other. And who was a better person to date other than your very own best friend?Series

Summary
Still off balance, Buck slams his left heel onto the roof, heaving forward to catch the collar of that yellow shirt. And there’s no conscious decision making here. It’s all instinct, and he’s grateful for it. If he’d given his overzealous mind the chance to consider another way, he would have missed his shot. Instead, his arms hurl the boy into the hands of another survivor...
And his right foot misses the edge.
OR
Buck catches Chris before he rolls off the firetruck, and it's him who falls back into the retreating waters of the tsunami. Unconscious and seriously injured, he's unaware that his team has been searching for him, never giving up as the days pass.

Summary
Buck’s not even sure when it started. He thinks it started when Chris stole his phone while he was making pancakes for the billionth time. Chris asked him to teach him how to make vegan pancakes, since Buck was vegan. Chris claimed he was recording it so he could show his dad later, so maybe Eddie could make the pancakes instead when Buck wasn’t available. Buck had bought the line, hook, line, and sinker.

Summary
Eddie shrugs. “Christopher mentioned to Daniel that Buck and I are partners. I mean, sure, it’s a little weird that she invited him over as well, but—”
“Partners,” Hen interrupts, “like work partners?”
Eddie and Buck glance at each other. “Uh, yeah?” Eddie says. “What other type of partner?”
Hen stares at them for a moment, before she bursts out laughing. “You dumbasses. She thinks you’re together.”
or, Eddie joins the PTA.

Summary
Navigating the aftermath of Shannon’s death, Eddie never thought he’d be a widower by age thirty-two and raising a kid on his own without any help. When Christopher calls into one of those late-night talk radio shows asking how to help his Dad, Eddie realizes that he needs to try and move on for Christopher’s sake, so he reluctantly starts dating what everyone tells him is the perfect woman for someone like him.
It turns out Christopher, and he have much different ideas of just who they need.
Buck has had a terrible year. His physical injuries from the truck bombing were bad enough but having Ali leave him seems like a sign from the universe that he’s always meant to be alone. Listening to the radio at night, he hears the most adorable kid ever talking about how his Dad is sad and needs a new partner—LA kids are pretty progressive, and this Christopher kid isn’t particular if his Dad ends up with a woman or a man. It almost gives him hope, but who would want to date a firefighter who can’t help anyone?
A chance encounter on a pier, a tsunami, and a promise to meet up at the Griffith Park Observatory on Valentine’s Day brings together two soulmates who, in another life, would have met very differently.Series

Summary
Buck is cold more often than not. He spends most of his days burrowed in the bedding as well as he can manage, except for when he has to emerge to eat, drink, or relieve himself. Early on, he’d thought about just...not doing any of those things. He thought about ignoring the food and water and just letting himself waste away and not have to deal with this barren existence any longer.
After two days of not touching his food and water, Buck had woken up with a copy of his Will resting next to his face. The threat was clear; if Mackey couldn’t use Buck, he’d go after his beneficiaries for money. He’d go after Maddie, Eddie, and Christopher.
Buck has kept to his routine ever since.

Summary
They’ve been texting and talking for eight days now, Buck is absolutely infatuated with the guy, and he’s also—terrified. On some level, he knows Eddie must be conventionally attractive; he’d dated (or just slept with) Ben, after all, and Buck knows that Ben has a type. But he’s more than a little worried that he’ll look at Eddie and not feel anything, and then he’ll spend the entire eleven hour flight freaking out about it.
He stares down at his phone, flips over to his messages and scans through them. It’s just after midnight back home, which means that Maddie’s asleep, and she’s the only one who really knows about Eddie, so he can’t even attempt Hen (who, unlike Chim, would immediately reach out to someone she knew at another station to get every last bit of information) or, God forbid, Ana, who might actually kill him for jumping from Ben to Eddie so fast.
But on the off-chance she wouldn’t—she would definitely call him a coward for not picking up.
He calls Eddie back.
