Summary
When he looked up, Eddie’s eyes were bright, focused. He was a little flushed, and his shoulders were soft but his jaw was set. “I love you,” he said.
“I love you, too, man,” Buck said. “But you know what I mean.”
“I do know,” Eddie said. “Buck, I’m trying to tell you something.”- Language:

Summary
Buck knew the universe wasn’t really a huge fan of him. But this? This was a new low.
The last two weeks of working with Eddie Diaz had been a special type of hell. Of course, while he’d been out of work nearly dying several times, Bobby had managed to replace him with the hottest, most competent probie that ever graduated the Academy. And of course, he hated Buck.
Which was good, because Buck hated him right back.
-----
In a world where everyone's timing is just a little off, Buck and Eddie take a few more missteps on the way to finding each other.

“I have a bottle of champagne, four champagne flutes, one engagement ring to go into one of those champagne flutes, and a note to deliver it all to table 34 with dessert,” Tomas explains, wide-eyed, throwing his hand back to the prep station where said champagne is waiting on ice next to four flutes and a small ring box.
“Okay?”
“Okay so there’s two men and two women and I have no idea who’s getting proposed to. I’m not even 100% on who came with who."

Summary
Eddie’s gaze drop to Buck’s lips—pink, like his birthmark. Eddie wants to taste those lips, and he wants it with a fierceness so sudden it shocks him.
“I’m, uh,” Buck stammers. “Last night. When you saw me and Tommy…we—we were on a date.”
Everything inside Eddie goes still. If his heart is a kite, then this is the moment it plummets back to earth.
or, Buck tells Eddie some news. Eddie has a realization and breaks up with his girlfriend. Not necessarily in that order.

Summary
“It’s just that I’ve never—” Jake stops, a chill running through him. The words fizzle out on the tip of his tongue even as his heart rate speeds up, his fight-or-flight response activated.
“Never what?” Bradley’s forehead furrows, and Jake can almost hear the gears of his overactive brain working furiously. “Oh, with a guy?”
Jake nods slowly, allowing the misconception for now. The truth is he’s never done this with anyone.

Summary
“I'm gay.”
He's looking at his feet, because he hasn't quite come to terms with the fact that he's saying this in a room where other people, strangers, can hear it.
But this is still the first time he's said it this way: out loud, in a declarative sentence. Being nervous is fine. Frank said that being nervous is fine, and Buck just said he's proud, and the only thought Eddie has in his head is that it's embarrassing he can't raise his head and say it like a man, so clearly, he's going to need to hang on to other people's words for the time being, someone who isn't his dad trying to explain the ways Eddie's allowed to inhabit the world.
He doesn't need to ask anyone's permission to be who he is. That's also a thing Frank said.
in which eddie attends a self-empowerment group for gbtq men to supplement his therapy, and is empowered to: forgive himself, say "i'm gay" to his own reflection in the mirror, accidentally adopt an adult, make fried rice, and tell his straight best friend that he's in love with him. not necessarily in that order.

Summary
“It’s also that I like sex,” is what he says instead, and hates how pathetic it sounds. “And it’s fun, but it’s like—unless it’s with someone really important, it’s kind of the same level as going to the movies?”
Eddie smiles at him. Somehow, impossibly, it’s even softer than the last time, sweet at the edges.
“What if it is with someone really important?” he asks, and squeezes, his fingers pressing into the hollows between the bones of Buck’s hand.
or: buck picks up a pamphlet, has an existential crisis, and shows up at eddie's door, in that order.

Summary
Five meetings between Thomas Kazansky and Ethan Hunt.
Alternately:
[Ethan heard the door click shut behind him and turned to ask after the papers when he was abruptly spun by a hand on his shoulder and pushed against the door.
His first and immediate thought was that he was certainly being attacked. Kazansky had him pressed against the door, chest to chest, a hand around his wrist and then- oh.
Oh no.
He wasn’t being attacked at all, it was infinitely worse. He was being very thoroughly kissed.
He pushed back against Kazansky’s chest and tried to think of something eloquent to say.
“Um?”]

Summary
Coyote found Hangman alone in the locker room, having changed out of his flight suit and back into chinos and an oxford button-down.

“You want to tell me what the hell that was about back there?”
-
After Rooster and Hangman's fight, Coyote tries to get Hangman to do the right thing and apologize. Hangman doesn't see it that way.

Summary
Maverick doesn’t regret it when he takes the hit, when the last thing he hears before he ejects is Rooster screaming his name.
But then he wakes. Not to a vast, white snowfield behind enemy lines—but to an inverted cockpit of an F-14.
And to Goose, alive and well in the seat behind him.
—
Or; the time-travel fix-it in which TG:M Maverick wakes up at the start of TG (1986).

Bookmarker's Notes
“I appreciate the offer,” Ice said. “And I might take you on it, one day. But it’s all a bit too fresh right now. Besides, I had something I wanted to ask you—not related to last night.”
“Funny, I kind of wanted to ask you something too. Been meaning to for a while.”
