    Summary

    “I really didn’t mean it this time. Those other times I lied, but this was truly an accident. I was camping around here and just wanted to have a campfire with marshmallows.” Hongjoong grins, elbowing Seonghwa in the arm. “But on the bright side, you’re here!”

    “The fire squad too in a few minutes,” Seonghwa informs him.

    Hongjoong giggles. He stabs another marshmallow on a stick and hands it to Seonghwa, then putting up two of his own. “We gotta hurry, then. C’mon, oh great hero.

     

    seonghwa is a hero and hongjoong is totally twisted and evil and definitely not doing it to catch his attention

    Summary

    It takes Buck longer than it should to notice. Which - okay, sure, he’s oblivious about certain things even on the best of days, and he got struck by lightning less than a month ago, so maybe he should give himself a break. But still, it feels like something he should have noticed, so he ends up feeling pretty stupid for not noticing.

    Since Buck woke up in the hospital, Eddie’s stopped touching him.

    or - the one where eddie won't touch buck once he wakes up in the hospital, and buck goes absolutely bonkers bananas about it

    Summary

    On Friday night, Buck showed up at the Diaz house after his shift with an armful of pizza and what looked like half the board games out of the game cabinet at the 118. On Saturday, he worked a twelve-hour shift, but he texted Eddie nearly every hour, sending pictures of the book Hen was reading and long rants about the fight he and Chim were in over the viability of modern-day gladiator fights and ranked lists of which Masterchef Junior seasons Eddie should watch first. On Sunday, he got there just before Chris woke up and started making waffles before Eddie was awake enough to be sure what was happening.

    And on Friday night and Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, Eddie was in love with him.

    --

    A season 5b fic. Eddie wrecks his room with a baseball bat and realizes he's in love with Buck, one domino falling after the other. He copes with it.

    Summary

    “So, Frank thinks we should do couples therapy.”

    Eddie’s words sink in and Buck fumbles the plate in his hand, watching open-mouthed as it falls to the floor and smashes into a million pieces, scattering across the linoleum.

    “Shit!” Buck yelps, shoving an arm out instinctively to keep Eddie in place, lest he starts to move and step on a shard with his bare feet. Eddie looks up at him, bemused and impossibly fond, a small smile playing on his lips even though the crease in his brow he’s had since he returned from his therapy session is still etched in place.

    “Swear jar!” shouts Chris gleefully.

    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.
