Summary
On the fourth day of Whumpmas, my whumper gave to me...
Four triggers tripped...
Just because Buck has left his life behind as a SEAL and is settling into life as a firefighter with the 118, that doesn't mean his past is so willing to stay in the past. Every so often, innocuous words or actions come up that have Buck flashing back to the worst time of his life.

Summary
It’s not like Buck’s the only mutant firefighter. There’s a woman in Austin with a crazy following on Instagram who calls herself Fire Fox and can literally walk through flames, like fucking Daenerys; Mutant and proud, she always declares, in her videos.
Buck’s not proud. Buck lives in a horror movie.
(or: Buck sees dead people)

Summary
"Hm. I noticed you here the other day. Bad week?" The man questioned, leaning against the bar. He didn't seem to know how to take a hint, but Buck didn't care all too much, so he sighed and met the stranger's eyes again.
"You could say that. If the week included the past—almost three months." Buck picked his drink up off the counter, taking a long swig in an attempt to stave off the awkwardness. His face scrunched in disgust at the taste, and he blinked rapidly in shock as he pulled it away from his mouth. Salt?
(Or, post-lawsuit, Buck gets roofied and it solves all his problems.)

Summary
Bobby Nash wasn’t sure what he had expected from his first foster child. Maybe he thought Evan would be some sort of teenage delinquent. Maybe the kid would think he was too old to be parented or be mean to May and Harry. Maybe he would run away or try to get moved to a different home. Maybe he would be nothing but trouble and make Bobby and Athena regret fostering in the first place. They should have just stuck to the plan and gotten a younger kid like Athena had wanted.
But what Bobby didn’t expect was for the social worker to show up at their house at nine o’clock at night. He didn’t expect for the kid by her side to simultaneously look way too young for 14 and at the same time so much older. Evan was curled in on himself, making him seem far smaller than he should be but the fear and wariness in his eyes was something far too mature for him. Bobby didn’t expect for his first foster child to stand there on his porch, shivering in the pouring rain with nothing but a sweatshirt and a blooming black eye on his face. But what he certainly didn’t expect was for the kid to worm his way into his heart so quickly.

Summary
“He’s gonna’ be fine, they did scans, they said it’s just a scratch--”
“Just a scratch?” Eddie blinks incredulously. “‘Just a scratch’ doesn’t require stitches Evan! God, how could you be so irresponsible?! How the hell were you not watching him at the park?! How could you let him get all the way across the street without you?!”
