Summary
Eddie spots his mother first, standing near the living room with a glass of wine frozen halfway to her mouth. Her eyes track from Eddie's face to Buck's face to their joined hands, and Eddie watches her go through the five stages of grief in the span of two seconds.
Her right hand moves automatically, decades of muscle memory taking over as she touches her forehead, then her chest, then her left shoulder, then her right, her lips pressing together as she mutters what Eddie can only assume is a prayer for his immortal soul.
Across the room, Eddie catches Shannon's eye. She's standing by the fireplace with a drink in her hand and Chris at her side, and she looks like she's having to physically restrain herself from applauding. Her free hand is pressed over her mouth, shoulders shaking with laughter. When she catches Eddie looking she raises her glass in a tiny salute, eyes sparkling with mischief.
Chris, bless him, has no such restraint. His face splits into a massive grin and he turns to his mother and says, in a voice that is so loud it echoes, "Mom, you didn't tell me Dad's boyfriend was cool."
Or,
Eddie needs a fake boyfriend. Maddie's brother is happy to help.- Language:

Summary
Alright, now to prove he’s right.
Finger on the cursor, Buck types an a to start.
Google, in all its autocomplete glory, gives Buck some options. Four suggestions stack top to bottom in whatever order Google decides matters most on any given evening, and the four that come up under Buck's single letter are, in order:
am i gay quiz (visited 2 days ago)
Amazon (visited 5 days ago)
american airlines
ammonia bleach mix
Buck stops chewing the inside of his cheek — which, honestly, he didn’t even realize he was doing.
That’s — huh.
That’s not what he was expecting at all.
Or,
Buck uses Eddie's laptop and sees something he isn't supposed to see. He reacts accordingly.Bookmarked by Bugabell

Summary
Sometimes, when he knows he has some time for himself, he allows himself to take out the box, and lets himself get lost in it. It's almost like a ritual, something he celebrates and relishes in, something that makes him feel like he's floating.
Buck, and a box, and the realization that being who you are is worth it.

Summary
“Look, when I was younger, I thought that if I discovered something important about myself, I would have some kind of revelation, something impossible to ignore.”
Eddie swallowed again, feeling his throat tighten more and more as the conversation progressed.
“It wasn't like that?”
Hen shook her head immediately.
“It was more like a kind of accumulation of small things or facts that had been hidden for years and that I decided to stop justifying.”
or; the fic where Buck asks, during a “quiet” shift, what their “hall pass” is and Eddie finds himself facing an existential crisis because of Ryan fucking Gosling.

Summary
“Don’t talk about Buck,” Eddie says. “He,”
There’s not much he can say without outing himself, so he stops short. Inhales. Exhales. Inhales. Exhales.
“Look,” Eddie says, firm, “Chris is my son. And I get to decide where we live.”
“Oh, Eddie,” Helena says, voice full of pity. “Please don’t force our hand.”
“Force your hand?”
“To fight for his custody.”
“What?” Eddie asks with quiet disbelief. His brain is in the process freezing completely, his veins ice cold.
He knows his parents don’t like him. He’s known that his whole fucking life. But this? This is too much. And worse, it’ll hurt Chris. Turn him into the same mess Eddie is.
“He needs stability and security. Something he clearly didn’t have until very recently. We’d been thinking about it ever since you got shot. Then he called us, and we’d fully decided but, you just let him go and we thought we wouldn’t need to. But now,”
Eddie’s breathing gets increasingly heavier until he collapses.

The Diaz parents Diaz parent and Eddie has a panic attack, so Buck drops everything and flies (not) straight to El Paso. They find their way home.

Summary
Hen reaches out of her bunk to turn off the overhead light. Buck’s face is illuminated by the glow of his phone. After a minute or so, he locks the screen, his face disappearing into the darkness.
“So what was everyone’s first kiss like?”
The Station 118 bunkroom has witnessed a lot over the years. Private conversations, spats, occasions of affection, joy, and anguish. It’s seen pranks, and games, and camaraderie. It’s even been privy to an unfolding love story or two.
It holds the memory of each of these moments.

Summary
“Does that say sweethearts?" Dad’s voice startles Chris from behind the couch, making him jump. “For me and Buck?”
Chris dares to turn around and face him. He seems completely stunned, eyes wide open as he stares incredulously at the screen. “Yeah,” he replies with a swallow.
“What—What does that mean?”
Chris answers honestly. “It means you’re dating.”
Dad furrows his brows. “What, why?”
“You did that on your own,” Chris says. He does not mention that he changed Dad’s Mii’s dating options to include men as well, just to make this happen.
OR: Too impatient to wait for them to get together in real life, Chris makes Buck and Eddie date in Tomodachi Life

“Ravi, I want you to have my fours,” says Buck, before Ravi can start his own turn. All three heads at the table turn to him in incredulous unison, so he adds, “What?”
“That is simply not how the game works,” answers Ravi, dumbfounded. “How do you—are you real?”
“Don’t open that can of worms,” Eddie teases with a shake of his head. “I’m still trying to work that one out, and I was roommates with the guy.”
Barely audible, Hen mutters, “Roommates, he says. Is that what historians will call it?”
or: Eddie has a work wife. Buck has a lot to figure out.

Summary
Eddie climbs onto the bed. They sit side by side, legs extended, two letter L’s protruding off the page. Instead of pressing play like Eddie is expecting, Buck laughs.
“What?” Eddie asks, an instinctive smile caressing his lips.
Buck grips his jaw, thumb brushing over his teeth before he bites at the broad nail, stifling. “Just—did you ever see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?”
Eddie nods. “Gene Wilder.”
“That’s the one,” Buck chuckles around his thumb, then lets it slide free. “You know the grandparents?”
Then Eddie’s laughing too. “Jesus,” he says on an exhale.
“I’m just saying,” says Buck, still giggling. “I’ve seen our future, and it’s bright.”
Or: God created the world in seven days. It only takes Eddie six to surreptitiously move into Buck’s house.

Eddie opens his mouth. Closes it. Finally, he settles on, “You told your parents you’re married? To a man?”
Chimney and Hen both glance at him with twin looks that clearly mean he’s on his own with telling the rest of the story. Which—they had no problem teasing and joking about it three seconds ago, but now that Buck has to really get to the heart of the issue, they’re leaving it to him?

“Chimney said you haven’t been complaining at work either.”
“Why are you saying that like it’s a bad thing?” Buck asks. It makes no sense. When he acts crazy and obsessive about Eddie it’s weird and can you please stop, but when he’s normal about him it’s are you okay. “Shouldn’t you guys be happy?”
“It’s just not… you.” She slumps back against the couch. “What happened to crazy girlfriend Buck?”
He has half a mind to be offended by the nickname, but he has to admit it is fairly accurate. Or was.
“I’m secure girlfriend Buck now.”

Summary
“I can't be your boyfriend, Buck.”
Buck tries his best not to show how much it stings. He’s read it all wrong. God, of course he has. “I'm…yeah. No, of course not. I don't know what I was-”
“Because I'm not.”
Buck blinks. “...not into guys?”, he asks, and it feels a little like salt in the wound to ask for clarification. But there’s something in Eddie’s expression - a hesitancy almost.
Eddie scrunches up his mouth at the side, looking down at his shoes for a moment before he speaks.
“Not a guy, Buck. I can't be your boyfriend because I'm not a boy.”
In which Eddie is back from El Paso and it's like nothing has changed. Except things have changed. Because Eddie is non-binary.

“You know, there’s a new little café opening up down the street.” Buck puts on his best sultry look. “Supposed to be very… intimate.”
“Oh really?” Eddie looks up from where he’s wiping the bottom of the locker room windows.
“Mhm.” Buck nods, cocking a hip. “Bet we could have a really nice time there.”
Eddie smiles innocently. “Sure, wanna go tomorrow?”
Whap! Buck promptly smacks him in the face with his rag.
“What the hell?!”
