    Summary

    “So where do you want to start?” asks Frank, and god, even the simplest questions are tough. How to even begin explaining the details of how you methodically destroyed every aspect of your own life. How do you explain chasing your own son out of the state? How do you explain burning your life down in pursuit of the ghost of your late wife?

     

    “Buck got a boyfriend,” Eddie hears himself say, and then pauses, frowning in confusion at himself. “That’s not actually– I didn’t–” He lets himself take a breath under the heavy weight of Frank’s unwavering gaze, “It actually started with Pepa.”

     

    //

    While Chris is in El Paso, it’s Eddie’s summer of Realizing Things, such as comphet, what Buck means to him, and how to let himself be happy.

    Summary

    “Another new guy?” Buck asks, rolling his eyes, “What nightmare have you got for us this time, hmm? They’re already late to the briefing, so it’s not exactly a great start.”

    “Actually,” comes a voice from behind them, making Buck startle, “I got here yesterday morning, already been briefed.”

    He’s the kind of Hollywood handsome that people generally aren’t in real life, all warm tanned skin and big brown eyes, and a perfectly coiffed sweep of dark brown hair. He’s walking down the main staircase from the floor above, and somehow it looks like a scene from a movie. It honestly makes Buck feel a little sick. Who the fuck does he think he is?

    ———

    An Inception AU, or, the 118 are a dreamsharing team, and Buck's not convinced they need a new pointman, let alone this guy. Despite himself, they end up real close.

    Summary

    For wishbabies, there’s a difference between want and love. Buck knows being wanted. He doesn’t know being loved. Maybe, between the two of them, they can reach a middle ground. Buck can love her, and Eddie can want her, and that will be enough.

    Buck and Eddie end up with a wishbaby. It strikes a nerve, but Buck’s always been good at pretending.

    Summary

    Buck’s hair is gray at the temples, buzzed neatly on the sides and a bit longer and curlier on top than Chris remembers him wearing it, and there’s a new scar through one of his eyebrows. He looks good, like he’s living a happy life, and the only possible reason Chris can imagine for Buck to be here at Helena Diaz’s funeral in El Paso is that Chris’s father brought him.

    “Why would you come?” Chris snaps at him.

    Buck blinks. “Why wouldn’t I come?”

    “She didn’t mean anything to you.”

    “I’m not here for her,” Buck scoffs. “She is dead. I’m here for him.”

    or

    Chris is forced to grapple with the choice he made eleven years ago when his father comes back for Helena’s funeral.
