    Summary

    Buck seems happy today.

    Really happy.

    And anyone that isn’t Eddie loves seeing him like this; but he knows Buck like he knows the back of his hand– he knows that this type of high usually comes with a low. As it so happens, Eddie knows exactly why Buck seems so happy, and why Buck's inevitably going to crash: The Buckley Parents are currently in the state of California. Maddie told Buck yesterday, announced that they’re going to have dinner, all of them– Buck went straight to Eddie’s after that. So. Yeah. Buck seems overjoyed, but Eddie knows that Buck is actively doing everything he can to not think about his parents, to not have one quiet moment alone in his brain.

    Everything meaning everything.

    Cleaning, hanging out with Chris, watching documentaries, and falling into research pits about the Gros Michel Banana and their impact on the banana flavour.

    Or: The Buckley parents are in town and the family secret is about to be spilled. Buck's mental health is impacted more than he lets on and the 118 are there to support him through an ADHD diagnosis he wasn't planning on getting.

    Summary

    Tormented by haunting visions and robbed of the perfect future that awaited her, Elain felt as if her life was over, as if she were nothing but a stagnant tangle of roots, buried and frozen beneath the soil. But when the harsh winter comes to an end, the warm spring breeze carries the promise that she will flourish and bloom again.
    As she heals, Elain finds unexpected friendship and understanding in Nuala and Cerridwen, Rhysand’s handmaidens and spies, and through quiet conversations and delicate touches, a deep and consuming love grows between Elain and Azriel.

    This is a canon-compliant fic that explores the possibilities of what Elain has been going through behind the scenes, told through both Elain and Azriel’s POV’s. Chapters are chronological and take place alongside the events of ACOWAR, ACOFAS, and early ACOSF. They can be read together in order, but each one can also stand alone. I’m posting summaries along with each chapter so if some ideas appeal to you more than others, absolutely skip around!

    Summary

    He knows he could have called Maddie and she would have been there, though the memory of her disappointment last time stopped him. As for everyone else—even if he weren’t prohibited from talking to them by his lawyer, Buck doubts anyone would have come. The last time they talked was when they ran into each other in the grocery store a week back, and, since Buck is not eager for a repeat of that interaction, he doesn’t even consider calling anyone in to hold his hand for what is, he tells himself, probably just another little blip on his road back to the 118.

    He is able to convince himself of this up until the moment Dr. Gutierrez walks into his room and says, “Well, Evan, you just can’t seem to do anything the easy way, can you?”

    Because, as it turns out, there is a circumstance under which a tiny clot that doesn’t cause you to vomit blood in front of all of your friends and family is worse than three big ones that do: that circumstance is called ‘being on blood thinners.’
    ***
    In the midst of the lawsuit, Buck is diagnosed with cancer. Dropping the lawsuit is easy. Finding forgiveness, less so.
