Summary
“Dad,” he whispers again.
“I got you, sweetheart,” Eddie assures him. “You’re okay. It’s okay.”
It’s a gift and an honor and a responsibility all in one blonde-haired, blue-eyed package that Eddie takes as the only holy thing he’s ever known. There is divinity, and it lives in Christopher Diaz, in the marrow of his bones and the perfect crooked way he smiles and the feeling of holding him close just one more time.

Summary
Every morning, Buck said goodbye to Vee, with a pat on the head. Sometimes, he took them around the house with him, during his morning routine. He would look in the mirror after flossing, practising his newfound vocabulary:
"This is Vee, they go by they/them pronouns."
Again, dumb.
It helped some deep, unidentifiable part of him though, so it stayed.
Or: Buck meets a nonbinary person, becomes emotionally attached to a plushie, has a gender crisis, confesses his undying love for his best friend, and remembers he has a family who loves him. Maybe in that order.

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.
