    Summary

    “You’re bi?” Adriana gasps. Because, for all the things Eddie drunkenly told her about Buck last night, that little nugget of information had not been included. “Wow,” she breathes. “Wow, wow, wow. That’s - - sorry, that’s great. Isn’t that great, Eddie?”

    Eddie, who had confessed his giant gay crush to her like it was a terminal diagnosis, kicks her under the table. “Sure is.”

    Summary

    Buck coming from a line of hunters has never mattered. Sure, Eddie recognized the tattoo as soon as he met the man who all but puffed at him for a shift or two. However, with a team including a witch and a dokkaebi who seemed to consider his attitude more like a little brother acting out than any kind of threat, Eddie was never overly concerned.

    The same way Eddie doesn’t bring up Buck’s family’s affiliation, Buck doesn’t ask why Eddie doesn’t change to help them find a victim buried under a mudslide, or severed fingers scattered around.

    Well, he doesn't until Eddie fucks up his own life and Gerrard comes back to the 118. And, granted, confronting Gerrard on scene might not have been the wisest decision. Hen looked like she wanted to smack him on the head for his stunt while Chimney sighed, an expression usually reserved for when Buck is acting out animating his face.

    But it’s not like it warrants Buck following him home after their shift. One that ended up with four hours of Eddie scrubbing the sanitary facilities of the station. All he wants is a shower, a way to scrub his nostrils clean and sleep. Not to be reminded of yet another blunder to add to the ever-growing list of things he did wrong.

    Summary

    Buck’s not going to let Eddie just hide himself away.

    He knows Eddie’s in mourning for Christopher, he knows he’s struggling with his actions and everything that happened because of them.

    But Buck’s not going to let him drown in his misery and depression. There’s no way he’s going to let him go through this alone, even though Eddie will push back - Buck knows him, and he will push - but he’s going to keep pushing too. He’s not going to let Eddie isolate himself.

    So, Operation: Keep Eddie Diaz Busy and Annoyed has started.

     

    Or, the one where Buck forces Eddie to keep busy while Chris is gone, but ends up catching a bad case of The Feelings in the middle of Eddie learning to love pickling things to irritate Chim and charming old ladies through square dancing.
