Summary
Bobby tries to imagine Robby at age thirteen.
Robby, who hasn’t quite gotten the hang of walking without a steadying hand to hold. Robby, his baby, at thirteen? Bobby tries to imagine it, recalls the kids he’s met at work around that age.
A thirteen year old, embarrassed, who set fire to a dead bush with an illicit cigarette. A thirteen year old, sick, who had been dared to eat fifteen worms. A thirteen year old, scared, who was pinned after a car crash. A thirteen year old, dead, whose friends had called too late.
Bobby looks at this thirteen year old, alone, and decides he can stay a while.
In a city not too far from Hershey, Pennsylvania, new father Bobby Nash takes on the responsibility of getting a runaway kid home safe. It takes a little longer than anticipated.

Summary
“Hey, that’s your dad.”
“Yeah, yeah, and I always thought he brought one kid to the marriage.”
The way she says it, so nonchalant in between glances at the karaoke booth, catches Buck by surprise. He sits stunned, mouth gaping and trying to form words, but no sound is coming out. There’s warmth settling in his chest as he desperately tries to cut it out. Surely she doesn’t mean what he thinks… right?
Then May turns to him, and her face softens. “You, Buck. Obviously.”
–
Or, two of Bobby's kids run into each other in a gay bar.

Summary
Then, Theo says, “Are you a boyfriend?”
And the question is loud, a yell that makes Buck’s stomach drop. Because Buck’s not stupid; his phone call with Hen was yesterday, and Theo had been a room away.
Buck glances over and oh my God, oh God no, Theo is staring up at a gorgeous, gorgeous man, with big, broad shoulders and tan skin and huge biceps and a strong nose and—
The attractive man points at himself. “Are you asking me?”
Unfortunately, a defeated part of Buck thinks, his feet frozen in place.
Theo’s big mouth opens again, and adrenaline rushes straight in Buck’s veins, something wild and anxious cracking open inside his chest. He rushes to Theo’s side, but it’s too late.
“Are you a boyfriend? Buck needs a boyfriend for ice cream.”

Or Theo finds Buck a boyfriend. Buck and Eddie are stupid. Chris is tired.Bookmarked by ShadowsOfWho

Summary
When he gets close enough, Chris can see that the paper he is clutching in his tiny hands is a card. A really badly coloured card, with a stick figure drawing of a woman and a much smaller figure with blond hair.
Oh.
Chris gets it before Theo even says the words.
“Mrs. Tina said it’s mother’s day on Sunday. We made cards,” Theo explains, his voice lacking the usual enthusiasm.
Chris has no idea what to say. He might relate, but that only makes it worse because he knows that there isn’t a thing you can say to make a child feel better after losing a parent. It just sucks, and there is no real fix for it.OR,
With Mother's Day coming up, Theo misses his mom. Chris knows a thing or two about that.Bookmarked by ShadowsOfWho

Summary
Theo sighs dramatically and with full gusto, all the fight leaving him as he stares up at the ceiling.
“But I don't want to go to bed,” he whines quietly.
“I know,” Eddie says empathetically, “Going to bed is Buck’s least favorite part of the day, too. But, hey,” he continues, “The more sleep you get, the more energy you have for adventures tomorrow. Isn’t that right, Buck?”
“That’s right,” Buck says, “and Eddie told me that he was going to take you to see the Hollywood sign tomorrow.”
Eddie had not told Buck that he was going to take Theo to see the Hollywood sign.
Buck’s face appears on the screen, wearing a knowing grin, and Eddie realizes, with a fond sort of inevitability, that they’ll be going to the Hollywood sign tomorrow.

Summary
“Tell me your story,” Buck asks, once they’re all settled in his office-slash-living room. It’s become his go-to ice-breaker for new clients—how could he expect to plan their wedding if he doesn’t know who they are as a couple? Sure, he’s a romantic, but it’s also practical. It’s how he learns how to turn the big day from great into something magical. He sips his coffee, leaving his notepad in his bag for now. He wants this to be as natural as possible, and he can jot down his notes later.
Ana, the bride-to-be, smiles brightly, linking her fiancé’s hand with her own. “We met about three years ago. I was his son’s teacher.”
“She’s amazing with him,” the fiancé, Eddie, cuts in. He’s incredibly handsome, with his brown eyes and long lashes, perfect smile, and hair combed to the side. They make a beautiful couple.

Summary
Evan Buckley can not clearly remember his life before the age of three. It’s all fuzzy like memories of a dream and he has no problem with that. He’s got parents and a family that love him enough to more than make up for whatever came before so he doesn’t give any thought to anything from before.
Or he didn’t.
Now it’s knocking at the door with demands and expectations, trying to, once again, place the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Only this time, Buck is not a child and he’s not alone.

Summary
Buck wears his heart on his sleeve, and his heart is full of Maddie. He can't help but carry her with him, telling his new family about his awesome older sister, who was stronger, faster, cooler than anyone he'd ever known. It's nice, knowing that she's been carried to LA with him, that the people he loves know about her, and it helps him be a better fire fighter when he stops to consider 'what would Maddie do'. He wishes he could share this life he'd built with her, but since he can't, it's like she's still taking care of him.
When Maddie Buckley, trembling from the hits she hasn't quite registered have stopped coming, stumbles her way into the 118 Firehouse, she's mildly confused as to why everyone seems to be expecting a ten foot amazon who can breathe fire and control animals.
(In which Evan 'Buck' Buckley, missing his sister, accidentally turns her into a cryptid. Still, Maddie Buckley is perhaps even more remarkable than the stories.)

Summary
Two Bucks walk parallel along the same street in LA in two different places, having two conversations with two Bobby Nashes. It could be the start of the universe’s most confusing joke.
[The one where, due to vague sci-fi reasons and timeline shenanigans, Buck Buckley switches bodies with Evan Nash]
Set during the lawsuit, but pretty hit or miss with plot accuracy. Buddie is kind of hinted at, queerbait style, but honestly Buck has too much going on here to unpack all that.

Summary
Ohhh, David realises as he gets handed a plate. Okay, I got it. He was surprised that Bobby’s son hadn’t come up when Michael first mentioned his children given how much emphasis he put on the positive co-parenting relationship their family unit strived to maintain. But then again – Buck was obviously much older than Michael and Athena’s two children if he had a child the same age as Harry. The step/co-parenting dynamic would clearly be completely different than it was with May and Harry.
Or,
The one where David is determined to prove that he’s in it with Michael for the long-haul, and that includes accepting and caring about the children of the Grant-Nash household. All 3 of them.
(And Athena and Michael laugh more than they have in months, Bobby is sheepish, and David learns a bit about chosen families).- Language:

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
There aren't a lot of places Buck can sit comfortably with his thoughts, but here—out on the water, body weightless as long as he lies still, no sound but the lap of the waves and the breath thrumming in his chest—here there's nothing in the world to drag him down, no anger no worry and, most of all, no regrets to fill his lungs and suffocate him. Here on the water it's fine that he's alone.
He wonders if Maddie felt alone when she died.
or;
Five years after his sister is legally declared dead, Buck finds his way to Los Angeles and joins the 118, hoping he can make Maddie's memory proud.
And the universe smiles down on him.
