Summary
He was rambling. He could hardly believe it of himself. Ethan Hunt did not talk about himself like this. There was enough going on everywhere else. But he was drunk and his bones ached and he could taste blood at the back of his throat and he was blissfully happy that they were alive. He was old and tired and deserved to indulge.
“But I did want it. Claire was beautiful, but I would not have done it if I weren’t drawn to the two of them.”

Summary
Eddie lies in his bed, sleep flowing through his mind like molasses, when he feels the warmth of a hand splayed on his stomach. A hand that’s not his. His eyes fly open, and he looks around frantically, reaching towards his nightstand to find something, anything, he could fight the intruder with, when his gaze lands on– on himself.

Summary
“I don’t want this to be how this started,” Buck says. He grips the sink behind him and stays still. He can’t be the one to break the glass. He’s already full of grief and guilt and regret. There’s no room for more. No room for anything else, not even Eddie.
“This isn’t how this started,” Eddie says finally. He turns and looks at Buck. “We’ve both looked away so many times.”

Summary
Buck’s hair is gray at the temples, buzzed neatly on the sides and a bit longer and curlier on top than Chris remembers him wearing it, and there’s a new scar through one of his eyebrows. He looks good, like he’s living a happy life, and the only possible reason Chris can imagine for Buck to be here at Helena Diaz’s funeral in El Paso is that Chris’s father brought him.
“Why would you come?” Chris snaps at him.
Buck blinks. “Why wouldn’t I come?”
“She didn’t mean anything to you.”
“I’m not here for her,” Buck scoffs. “She is dead. I’m here for him.”
or
Chris is forced to grapple with the choice he made eleven years ago when his father comes back for Helena’s funeral.

Summary
'We need to talk about your behavior yesterday,' says Captain Diaz, 'your actions reflect poorly on this station, they reflect poorly on me and most importantly they reflect poorly on you. You put yourself in real danger. In a job like ours that's not sustainable.'
'Worried about me were you, Cap?' says Buck, tongue pushed against the inside of his cheek, lashes dipping.
'Of course.'
It's been a long time since someone truly worried about him; sure his housemates like him but they're not concerned in any real way about him and Maddie might distantly worry about him when he crosses her mind but he hasn't seen her in years and she doesn't reply to his postcards so it's probably not often.
'I won't—. I don't do it on purpose.'
'I know, Buck,' says Captain Diaz, 'you care about what we do, I can see that, but I need you to take the way we do things, the way I ask you to do things, more seriously.'
Buck wants to be good, he wants to get it right, nodding, looking up at Captain Diaz properly, 'I will. I do.'
Captain Diaz smiles and Buck can almost pretend he's remembering yesterday, not when he shouted at Buck, but after, 'that's all I'm asking.'
