    Summary

    After moving twice this year, and after losing Bobby, everything in Buck's life has an air of uncertainty and impermanence. Of course he picked this house because he liked it and could see himself living here, but part of him still feels like somebody is going to take it away from him as soon as he allows it to feel like home.

    Buck wonders if Tommy somehow understands why he’s so reluctant to unpack his decorations, even though they haven't spoken about it. And if Tommy got him a plant on December 1st and a little fire engine on the 2nd, does that mean there’ll be another present tomorrow?

    Summary

    "Thank you again," the nervous guy says.

    "Like I said: I did it for Chimney," the pilot says, and Alex hasn't been briefed enough to know if that's a person or organization. It's an equally stupid name for both. The pilot leans over, turning his head a little so Alex catches a small smile in profile from where he's wedged in the third row seat. "And for you."

    --

    This poor FBI agent just wants to get home. Instead, he has a front row (well, third row) seat to the conversation that could've taken place after these alleged bioterrorists were detained.

    Summary

    Ravi doesn't need to be looped into the weird ass shit of the A-shift, he's got his life worked out pretty much how he likes it and he's satisfied with the amount of risk he's taking on as a firefighter, thank you very much.
    But it isn't the case for Buck, is it?

    Summary

    Ravi's eyes flutter closed again, but he didn't tell him to go away, so Buck keeps talking. "I, uh, went viral."

    That does the trick, Ravi's eyes opening again, this time sparkling with curiosity. "Viral?"

    Buck hums. "On Reddit. I made a fake account and uh…" His hand comes up to scratch at his neck, that humiliation making a hasty return. It's not his finest moment. He winces, blurting his crime out. "Posted on relationship advice."

    Ravi's mouth drops open, and he sits up, his precious sleep long forgotten. "About Tommy?"

    "Yeah," Buck confirms grimly. "The last time I checked, there were almost fifteen hundred comments."

    —————
    or: the one where Buck asks Reddit for help, gets really into fish, and tries, fails, and tries some more to get over Tommy.

    Summary

    “Are you okay?” Tommy asks.

    If Buck were able to put the storms of emotions into coherent words, he probably would say: That’s kind of a stupid question. Look at me. Do I look okay? How can anything be okay? Bobby is dead. And I fucked up. And you are not with me.

    He just shrugs. “I guess.”

    ~

    Buck and Tommy meet at Bobby's funeral. They start texting each other. As friends. It helps with the grief until Buck finds out that Tommy has been lying to him.

    Summary

    By dawn there’s a statement from the chief’s office, announcing the successful rescue of the survivors of the Uno, without mentioning the 118 or Kinard. In fact it sounds like it was Chief Simpson’s plan all along.

    Crisis averted, Melton thinks. Nobody is getting fired, and everything is going back to normal now.

    Except that things do not go back to normal, because Kinard starts dating Buckley from the 118. Melton honestly doesn’t care about break room gossip or the LAFD rumor mill, but Buckley is kind of famous, and apparently his special brand of chaos is contagious.

    Summary

    “Can I help you?” Tommy asked, peering up and down the street to see if, perhaps, they needed help, wondering why they'd knock on his door out of all the houses on this street.
    “Are you Thomas Kinard?” the boy asked, his voice a little deeper than Tommy had anticipated.
    “Tommy. Yeah.”
    The two kids exchanged a look.
    “I'm Benny. This is Holly. Patrick Kinard is our father.”
    Tommy's hand reached out for the door frame, trying to hold his body up as his knees threatened to give out. The world around him shifted, a violent, seismic tremor that ran through his very core. For a moment, he couldn't breathe.
    And then Benny said, “You're our brother.”

    Summary

    “Thanks,” Tommy says softly, taking the records. “Sorry.”

    “You keep saying that, but I don't know why,” Buck says, aiming for teasing and just sounding as concerned as he feels.

    Tommy's lips press together, and he blinks right before his eyes get shiny. “My father died last week.”

    Buck remembers the shocked, numb feeling that followed him for days after Bobby died. Weeks, really. But he knows Tommy had a complicated relationship with his dad, even though he rarely talked about it. Just like they rarely talked about anything.

    “I'm sorry,” he says, even though it feels insufficient. “Did you eat today?”

    --

    Buck runs into Tommy and helps him navigate the complications of grief and final arrangements.

    Summary

    In the end, it wasn't anyone from the 118 who pulled Buck out of his depression-fueled haze. Not Maddie. Not Athena or May or Harry. Not Tommy, or even Buck himself.

    It was fucking Sal DeLuca.

    Summary

    It starts with a postcard on his windshield two days after he turns 18. It's simple, just a stock photo on the front....but on the back...well, that's a different story.

    Lila, 12 hours.

    He frowns at it, looks around, doesn't see anyone who could have left it, no one staring at him furtively to see if he's grabbed it, no one rushing away, so he doesn't give it another thought.

    Until he meets Lila at a bar one night when he's out with friends.

    They have a crazy night together but it's just a one night stand. Buck still doesn't think anything of the postcard and why would he? It was a weird coincidence, that's all.

    Except they keep coming.

    Or: Soulmate AU wherein Buck receives postcards with the name of the next person he's going to date with how long that relationship is going to last...but when he receives one with Tommy's name on it and no time limit, he has to figure out what that means.

    Dr. Copeland is gonna be pissed. Actually, she'll just be sorely disappointed, but she'll take every pain to reassure him that 'healing isn't linear' and 'sometimes, we fall into old coping mechanisms even when we know better' and 'you're going through a hard time right now, Buck, it makes sense.'

    Summary

    It was a beautiful ceremony.

    And overwhelming.

    Afterward, everyone was spread out around the place. Talking, eating, laughing, crying. It was loud, and crowded.

    But even in a filled space, Tommy could tell there was someone missing.

    He excused himself from a conversation with Ravi and Chimney to fill up a plate of food, then made his way up to the roof.

    “Thought I’d find you out here,” he said when he spotted Buck.
