Summary
Everything's gone but the bookshop. Satan's just appeared.
Except... everything's not gone. Quite. Nor everyone.
A fix-it inspired by a lovely comment from siriogold on my Tumblr rant over whatever that was.

Summary
When Eddie gets a phone call from his son's science teacher about reasonable accommodations it sets off a series of events that turn his life completely upside down.
"I should probably get going," Buck says. "It's a school night after all."
Eddie appreciates this devotion to duty, but at the same time he's a little disappointed. He's repaid Buck's favor so now there's no need for them to see each other except on parent teacher night. But he doesn't want that. It's been a handful of hours and the thought of Buck never coming by again already seems impossible. "Look," he says, letting the words come out of his mouth before he can overthink them back in again. "I don't know about you, but making friends when you're a single dad with an insane job is hard. I have your number. Is it okay if I use it for non-school purposes?"
Buck's insta-smile is so bright it's practically blinding. "I would love that."

Summary
“Yeah. Craziest thing. My kid comes home a few weeks ago with a birthmark on his eyebrow. Looks suspiciously like a smudge of paint, but he assures me it’s a birthmark.”
“Ah,” Buck cringes. "Mr Diaz - -"
"Eddie."
Or, if you ask Christopher, that smudge on his eyebrow is a birthmark. If you ask Eddie, his kid won't stop painting on his face and he has no idea why.

Summary
“I like your eye spots,” the kid says, reaching for a glue stick.
“Thank you,” he says. “It’s a birthmark.”
“I’ve never seen a birthmark before!” The kid gasps. “How do you get one?”
Or, Buck gets crushed by a ladder truck and chooses to glass-half-full it. He volunteers to teach a kid's art class at the library. He meets a kid and his dad and his cup end ups very, very full.
