    Summary

    Trigger warning: discussion of suicide

    “Excuse me, sir? Are you Mr. Kishimoto?” The man doesn’t so much as blink. “Right. I was afraid you’d say that.” In one short huff and the very distant gasps of the crowd below, Buck stretches a leg over his own balcony, balancing himself on the edge. That gets the man’s attention.

    OR

    With things no longer the same after the lawsuit, Buck decides that he needs to leave LA. Before he does, though, the team answers a call to rescue a jumper. Buck's heart-to-heart with the man sets off a mess of reactions that just might convince him he still has a home at the 118.

    Summary

    "So, you fucked him in my bed."

    "Please, can we not -"

    "How many times?"

    There was a noticeable pause. Buck turned slowly to Eddie, clearly caught off guard by the question. "Huh?"

    "How many times did you fuck him?" He repeated slowly. A little meanly. "How many times did you fuck him in my bed?"

    OR: Eddie finds out about Buck and Tommy's hookup and acts completely normal about it. As any platonic best friend would really.

    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

    Bobby is oblivious. “What’s the damage?”

    “Not much, cap,” says Buck. He has a smear of soot across his forehead, which if anything makes his blue eyes even bluer. May has long since gotten over her dumb girly crush on him, and of course she now has Darius, but she can’t deny how good-looking he is. Next to him, Eddie rests his helmet against his hip, pushing the hair off his forehead, and someone actually sighs.

    “He’s so hot,” May hears her whisper to a friend.

    If only you knew, May thinks amusedly.

     

    or, May Grant’s school gets a visit from the 118.
