    Summary

    Jack had just stepped back onto the main floor when he clocked movement at the ambulance entrance, two guys hurrying in, the smaller one helping a guy with a sweatshirt covered in blood. But something was wrong, some unnamable instinct rising within Jack at the way they moved. It was too fluid, too controlled. Jack knew what the walking wounded looked like, had seen it for years, from war zones to bar fights. This wasn't the injured seeking help; this was men hunting.

    Time slowed, Jack's heart rate spiking, the adrenaline dump casting everything in sharp relief—the full ED floor, patients plus shift change meaning twice the usual personnel were here.

    Robby was here.

    That thought got him moving, Jack approaching laterally. He got there right as the guns came out.

    Summary

    Chris: did u stop it?

    Buck: huh?

    Chris: his reign of terror

    Buck: huh???????!?!?!?!

    Chris: you need to save the single people of la from dad

    "Dios mio," Eddie hisses under his breath. He looks more stressed than before. Buck reads the messages again and again until they start to make some sense.

    "This is about a date," Buck says slowly. "Chris said you wanted to start dating." He can't even look at Eddie. He feels like his heart is beating too loudly in his chest. "You're… going on a date?"

    Or: Eddie tries to start dating again. Chris intervenes and Buck temporarily loses his mind.

    Summary

    The year by the old calendar is 2025.

    Home is gone. Home is a failed rescue mission and an echo of a memory. Home is a lost boy living in a wooden house by the sea.

    But first, there was a promise. Christopher, when it's safe, I'll take you back to your father. Buck had all but given up on keeping it after the world had died and everyone in it. But just as some oaths refuse to be forgotten, so the same can be said about the endurance of love.

    Summary

    Buck doesn’t take his hands off Eddie’s shoulders as he glances over to Athena and Nash, who are watching the display calibrate. “How’d we do?”

    “See for yourself,” Athena says.

    Bad, Eddie thinks.

    But he can’t read her – doesn’t know what it’s going to say. For all he knows, he’s going to look up and the words Eddie Diaz Should Be Dead will be flashing across the screen. He half-expects it.

    He wants to brace Buck for it, for the disappointment – wants to explain that whatever has screwed his compatibility scores till now, this one is all on Eddie.

    “Oh, shit…” Buck whispers.

    Eddie lifts his head, finally lets himself look, and then takes an inhale so sharp he tastes blood.

    Oh, shit.

    OR
