Summary
He knows everything Buck has been trying not to say. He’d been uncharacteristically silent through it all, from the moment he first found the real estate listings to the time Eddie started planning for the trip, even when he’d been talked down by everyone else from a permanent move to a long visit.
He’s been quiet, but Eddie knows that Buck loves him. That, despite it, because of it, he will never make Eddie choose between him and his son.
Or: Buck drives Eddie to the airport. Eddie knows he won't tell him that he loves him, but he loves him. Everything unspoken hangs between them in the air.

Summary
Tommy looks flabbergasted. “My attention?”
“I mean, yeah, I guess,” Buck replies. Because it’s the only explanation of the past few weeks that should make sense—why his stomach is in knots, why his chest feels so tight whenever he sees Eddie and Tommy together. Because he can’t face the alternative. “Who else?”
“Eddie? The person you’re dating?”
Or: The one where Tommy likes Eddie, Eddie is dating Marisol, Marisol hates Buck, and Buck is really, really confused (or as they might say, bothered and bewildered).

Summary
There’s an itchy feeling that Buck can’t place. It started when he saw Eddie and Tommy leaving together on a helicopter, got worse when he had to hear about ringside tickets and muay thai and karaoke and trivia bars, and became impossible to ignore with when you meet somebody and you just click.
Or: a ficlet of Buck spiraling up to the basketball scene. rejection sensitivity, am i right?

Summary
Death marks Buck as soon as he takes his first breath.
She places a kiss on his head, close to his left eye—a reminder that he is tied to her as much as she is to him.
He was made to be a sacrifice. A life for a life. A son for a son.
It doesn’t work that way.
Or: How Buck learns to live, as told by Death.

Summary
"Who wouldn’t want to go on a date with this pretty face?” Buck says, tapping a hand on Eddie’s cheek.
It should be comical—satirical, maybe—two single best friends playing up the romance so they wouldn’t be the odd ones out in a romantic setting. But Buck’s voice is a shade too sincere, the hand on Eddie’s face too gentle, the look in their eyes too soft. And, okay, Chimney would like the spit bucket now, please. He could gag at the sweetness.
“What, you’re only on a date with me for my pretty face?” Eddie asks, and Jesus, they’re still staring into each other’s eyes.
Or: The group goes to a Wine & Cheese Night and tries to figure out if Buck and Eddie know they're dating.

Summary
Shane has never been religious. But he found himself praying, to something, to anything, to the wind that can anchor every wish he had for Ilya—to keep him safe, to keep him healthy, to make him happy again.
He thinks of Ilya’s cross on his necklace, and thinks of his Mom.
Is he going to meet her now? Will he get the chance to tell her how wonderful her son grew up to be? Will he be able to tell her that he tried to love him for the both of them the best way he knew how?
Or: what if it's Shane's plane that almost crashed?

Summary
For a moment, he wonders with his eyes open fixating on the mole under Eddie’s left eye as he’s peaceful and serene and near that if Buck were to reach out and touch him—would he be considered holy?
Would the touch bleed through his flesh? Would he be regarded as sacred having to touch something reverent?
Would this be a prayer?
Would this be talking to God asking him to do something divine?
Or: Buck realises his feelings for Eddie as Eddie learns to bake, shaves his moustache off, tries to bring his son back home and realises he’s gay all this time.

Summary
Look, it’s just—I’m just trying to make sense of this, of all of my feelings. I’m just looking at the past thirty years with a different lens, and some of it makes more sense now. Some still don’t, and maybe those are truly lost pieces I won’t ever understand, but a whole chunk of it—it makes sense.
Which part am I?
What—
Which part do I fall into? The parts that make more sense now, or am I one of the lost pieces you won’t ever understand?
Or: Buck and Eddie finally put words to their feelings. Until they don’t. Again.
