Summary
“You’re gonna have a good time once you’re there,” Buck continues, and Eddie knows he’s right— knows that any time spent with Hen is enjoyable; that Karen, though he hasn’t hung out with her in this capacity before, is a delight; that he could really use a distraction from the misery that is his life.
Right now, though, Eddie wants to curl into a ball, tuck himself underneath the passenger seat, and decompose right into the Jeep’s recently-refurbished car flooring.
That wouldn’t be fair to Buck, though.
Lately, Eddie’s felt like his entire existence has been unfair to Buck.
Five new things Eddie learns about himself in Christopher’s absence, and one thing he rediscovers.
(Written for 9-1-1 Gotcha for Gaza.)

Summary
He opens up the browser, and it’s a faux pas to look at someone else’s browser history, it’s not like Chris doesn’t know that, but there’s only one way that Chris is ever going to know what his dad is thinking and doing, and that’s by snooping, because god forbid his dad actually communicate. The last thing on there is a soup recipe that they actually had for dinner a few days ago. It was good, even if it took forever. What catches Chris’ eye, though, is the website name. Eating with Eddie. How embarrassing to choose a recipe just because you have the same name as the blog owner. What a dad move.
---Eddie moves to El Paso, which is what it is. Chris might not be sure how he feels about it at first, but he finds a couple of different recipe blogs that make him rethink. Or, Eddie and Chris in Texas, told through the medium of recipes.

Summary
Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.
She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.
“Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.
It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.
“Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”
—
Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

Summary
“I feel fucking explosive, Buck. Like I’m about to go off at any second. I don’t want you caught in my mess.”
His eyes sting. At the very least, Buck contains the sound of it in his voice. “Eddie, I don’t know if you’ve noticed,” he replies, “but I already am.”
Eddie self-implodes. Christopher, seeking refuge, flees to Buck—whose priorities amount to, in varying order: take in the kid, get Eddie to talk to him, and keep the three of them afloat in the process. (Oh, and Tommy’s there too. He thinks.)

Summary
Chimney clears his throat lightly. “Uh, Cap? We have a customer who wants to order the daily special.”
The daily special that doesn’t exist. Because no one comes into this place to eat because this restaurant isn’t real.
Or, the 118 run a front restaurant for money laundering, and accidentally adopt the Buckley siblings
