Summary
Buck made a friend as a child that would stay with him from that day on. That friend just so happened to be a spirited little water elemental. A promise has kept their bond a secret his entire life, but now that Buck is older, and a very perceptive Eddie Diaz has entered the picture, keeping his secret might not be as easy, or necessary, as he thought.
Follow Buck as he learns more about his bond and abilities, all while dragging an unaware Eddie and Chris along for the ride.

Summary
After the tsunami, Buck moves in with Eddie, determined to help Christopher through the nightmares that follow. Somewhere between midnight talks and quiet mornings, they cross the line from friendship to something else—but Buck learns too late that they’re not on the same page.
One heated argument about what they are, combined with Buck’s discrimination complaint against the LAFD, shatters the fragile thing they’d built. Now they’re not speaking, and Buck’s left wondering if he’s lost Eddie for good.
But when life-altering news drops into his lap, Buck is forced to decide—will he reach for Eddie, or let the distance between them become permanent?

Summary
When Buck buys a Powerball lottery ticket he doesn't think much beyond his need for change to air up his tire. He forgets all about the ticket until word spreads that the winning ticket was sold in LA and hasn't been claimed yet and pretty much dismisses it. After all, there's no way he won the lottery.
Turns out no, he really did win the Powerball, to the tune of 295 million dollars and just in time for Christmas. He's going to make sure the 118 has the best Christmas of their lives. And just maybe he'll have a good one too.

Summary
Buck is a firefighter by day and Blaze — a confident, masked performer — by night. After a controversial suspension from LAFD for his off-duty performances, Buck faces both institutional and public scrutiny.
With his team at Station 118, Buck navigates the fallout: media storms, HQ investigations, and social backlash. Yet through solidarity, wit, and raw authenticity, Buck becomes a symbol of courage, not just in the field but in living unapologetically.
Meanwhile, Eddie stands as his quiet anchor, Christopher as their shared joy, and the 118 rallies around him in defiance of hypocrisy. Together, they redefine what it means to serve — on duty, off duty, and in the eyes of the world.
