Everyone thought they seemed very close, very, very close, in the weeks leading up to last Christmas, but something clearly changed.
And someone is going to have to make them talk.

Summary
“He baby-trapped you,” the man said with a misplaced confidence that was almost impressive, “that’s fucked up, man.”
Buck blinked. Then blinked again. Then, “Uh... no. No, that’s not—”
“Shut it, Benji, that’s not what happened,” the other robber scowled, no longer trying to pretend he wasn’t eavesdropping. “They’re both dudes. A dude can’t baby-trap another dude.”
“Of course they can. Equal rights and shit! That’s what the parades are for.”
---
There's a hostage situation at the bank and Buck is forced to reevaluate his relationship with Eddie (and vice versa).

Summary
Eddie can’t move. Like this, Buck is illuminated by the sunlight streaming through the window; dust motes shimmering around his head, his hair haloed in gold. Beautiful, Eddie thinks. And to his surprise, he doesn’t feel any sort of guilt about doing so.
Except — he should. Because Buck is dating Tommy, and he’s happy, and Eddie would rather go to his grave repressed and miserable than ever take away from Buck’s happiness.
Or: Eddie starts to untangle his complicated feelings about himself, and Buck. Mainly Buck.

Summary
The day had begun as normal – or as normal as it could currently be, aka mourning the loss of Christopher’s presence (just over a month now), resisting the urge to punch Gerrard in the face (also just over a month), getting shit for his mustache (Chimney had a new celebrity lookalike for him every shift), and, of course, coming to terms with his not-so-best-friend-like feelings towards Buck, which both terrified yet exhilarated him.
Or: Eddie hits his head on a call and wakes up in a very eye-opening series of alternate realities.

Summary
“Look,” Chimney’s back to a frantic whisper and Eddie can hear the sound of metal clanking together in the ambulance. “You gotta promise you’re not going to tell anyone I told you this. Promise me, Eddie.”
“Tell anyone what?”
He’s used to Chimney’s typical weird behavior. But this feels different.
“Buckisgoingtogowithhim."
“What? Chim, I can’t understand you.”
“Eddie,” he groans into the phone, dropping his voice low. “Buck is going to go with Tommy. To New York.”
or, amidst his son leaving for Texas, a sexuality crisis in his 30s, and the possibility of losing his best friend, Eddie can’t seem to catch a break.

Summary
“Which do you think makes you feel most loved?”
Eddie thought for a long moment. Too long, maybe. Then he shrugged, “Honestly, Buck? I have no idea.”
Buck’s brows pinched up. “What do you mean? When have you felt the most loved?”
“Don’t make a big thing of this, Buck. Promise?”
Buck made a show of crossing his heart, brows still raised curiously.
“I’m not sure I’ve ever… really felt loved in a relationship? I’m not convinced that I know what makes me feel loved…”
OR -
After finding out that Eddie doesn't know what his love language is, Buck sets about finding out for him. He begins a five week experiment, one for each love language, to figure out which will make Eddie feel the most loved.

Summary
Christopher peered at him, his eyes bigger through his lenses. “Why?”
Buck nearly choked. “Why? Why… what? I mean, I’m bisexual, if that’s what you’re—”
“Oh, no.” Christopher shook his head, “I just meant, if you’re dating men, why aren’t you dating Dad?” Which simply did not help Buck’s choking problem.
Buck really, truly had never pictured Eddie’s son asking him these questions, specifically why he wasn’t dating Eddie.
“Uh— your Dad isn’t— we’re not—”
“Oh.” A pause.
“I don’t want you to date Dad.”

“Don’t think this means anything, by the way.”
Thomas sighed in exasperation. “Honestly, Jimmy-“
“I mean it,” Jimmy continued. “If you so much as think about touching me I’ll-“

Summary
“Are you serious right now?” Eddie asks. “You know we have a shift tomorrow, right? Even if you run, you’re only delaying this conversation by about eight hours.”
“You’d really do this at work?” Buck asks, contemplating briefly whether it might be a better option for him to just dive off the edge of the fire escape.
Eddie probably wouldn’t risk jumping after him.
And it’s only a dozen feet or so. If he makes sure to roll when he lands it’s highly likely he’d walk away completely unscathed.
Eddie follows his line of sight, and an incredulous sound escapes him.
“Please tell me you’re not thinking about jumping off the fire escape.”
*
(Eddie finds out about the well. Buck goes to awkward and amusing lengths to avoid talking about it.)

Summary
‘Ah. He has a voice. That’s a start.’ The Captain clasped his hands together in his lap and stared Jimmy down. Jimmy’s lips parted as his silvery eyes searched around Jimmy’s face, a wolf hunting. ‘I don’t have much patience for men who attack my ship for no reason. I’d suggest you tell me exactly what you lot thought you were doin’.’
In a world of pirates and a lawless sea, survival depends on loyalty, betrayal, and knowing exactly who your enemy is. Unfortunately for Jimmy Kent, an Officer in the Royal Navy, the lines between enemy and intrigue blur when he is kidnapped by pirates. He along with the dangerous Lady Anstruther are imprisoned aboard the infamous Black Cat where they wait to meet its equally well-known Captain.
But what if the foes Jimmy thought he had on principle, turned out to be the greatest thing that has ever happened to him?

Summary
“Eddie? What’s wrong? There’s no way I missed something, look, we went over everything thrice—”
Oh, god, Buck has retrieved his clipboard from wherever in Eddie’s house he’d stashed it last time. He’s waving it around as he speaks.
“Information about my spouse,” Eddie says blankly.
Buck looks confused. He flips through the pages on his clipboard. “No, look, we definitely-”
“Not Shannon,” Eddie interrupts. “My current spouse.”
Buck, understandably, looks even more confused. Then he seems to actually comprehend what Eddie is saying, and he shoots him a devastated look. “You’re- you’re married? When? To whom?”
“I… I didn’t know I was married. I don’t. I don’t think I am? But they seem to think I am. And they think…” Eddie pauses. Wets his lips. “I think… I think they think I’m married to you.”
Buck and Eddie get married the night of Chimney's bachelor party. Buck and Eddie do not know they got married the night of Chimney's birthday party. At least, they don't until months later, when Chris' new school asks Eddie for documentation of his spouse: one Mr. Buck Diaz.

Summary
An unknown darkness plunges the world into chaos. With it, the dead rise.
Having died that day in 1925 and clawed his way out of the ground as one of the rabid undead, Thomas finds himself three years later in London just trying to get by. He avoids attention, most of the time, until his past comes rushing towards him on the busy pavements of Oxford Street.
Reconciling his death with this new reality is hard enough. Holding on when the love of his life paints colour back to his world proves even more difficult, when everything hinges on keeping one's head down, holding one's secrets close, and vials of blue medicine that keep the monster at bay.
