Summary
Re-post and Expansion of: 'In Which Buck's 'Therapy' is NOT Brushed Off'
What if someone had noticed how off Buck was after his therapy session and actually asked about it?
Buck gets some actual help after being assaulted, alongside the ‘jokes’ at the 118 – which help tell him exactly how he is thought of there, and does not endear his co-workers to him. With Buck not holding on to the ‘firefam’ so tight from the start, things change drastically for him – and yet other things not at all.
A Buck who grows with his storyline, and is not his co-workers punching bag. He works overtime at other stations, so his social circle grows.

Summary
What if Buck and Tommy meet during the tsunami and instead of suing the city and the LAFD, Buck transfers to harbor instead?
Follows canon events from season 3a.
*Edit: the Implied/Referenced Sexual Assault tag is because Buck briefly mentions the season 1 therapy session (more in chapter 3 notes). Also, the 118 bashing tag is because of their treatment of Buck after the lawsuit, but there is a happy ending with the 118 :)

Summary
What if Buck finally realized after the humiliating blowout, on how Eddie said what was wrong, how he made everything about himself and how Eddie called him exhausting throughout the years they were friends (yes, past tense) and abandoned his plans to sublet Eddie’s place. He still needed a place to live and managed to find a run-down place in North Hollywood that needed TLC.
This is a story where Buck builds back his life one step at a time and heals himself.
