    Summary

    "Holy shit!" Chim chokes, spitting coffee all over the shirt Buck just changed into.

    "Aw c'mon man," Buck sighs, but Chim isn't looking at him. He's staring out the engine bay doors, his face slack with shock as he points weaking at something behind Buck.

    "Eddie's kissing the hot nurse in the parking lot."

    "What hot nurse??" Buck whips around.

    He expects to find some petite woman with smooth brown hair and neat scrubs plastered to Eddie's front. What he finds instead is a very tall, very hot man cradling Eddie's face, titling it upwards into a kiss that looks gentle and earnest, his other hand splayed large and confident against Eddie's waist.

    Or

    Buck loses his goddamn mind after seeing Eddie and Ian kiss. Eddie has no idea what's going on. Until he does.

    Hilarious spiraling Buck

    Summary

    Welcome to the Garden of Delights! A "something for everyone" highly structured sex club that has invested a lot of infrastructure in turning the ethos of "Safe, Sane & Consensual" into a functional business operations model for all types of sexual encounters. (I pitch this to fellow Americans as "like a sexy Dave & Buster's.")

    Aziraphale, a club veteran, and Crowley, a club newbie, keep running into each other in different areas, or grottos, of the club and delighting in how sexually (and perhaps romantically?) compatible they are. Unfortunately, given their mutual penchant for anonymous consensual non-consent encounters, they don't always recognize each other...

    Summary

    “How did you get home from the hospital?”

    “Took an uber.”

    “Does Maddie know?” Silence. “Does anyone?” More silence. More of Buck refusing to meet his gaze, staring at the door like he thought he could entice Eddie to leave by the power of suggestion. Well, good fucking luck, Eddie thought. Wild horses, and all that. “Why didn’t you call anyone?” he demanded. “Why didn’t you call me?”

    “I did!” Buck snarled. The momentum of his indignation carried him into a sitting position, and Eddie could see him flinch with the pain of it. His unnaturally stoic front was gone, and something raw and wrenching took its place; it occurred to Eddie that he’d never heard Buck raise his voice before. “I did call you, Eddie! As I was bleeding out on my kitchen floor. You. Didn’t. Answer.”

    ---

    The squatter in Buck's attic has a knife. Buck has a bit of a breakdown. Eddie has a plan to make everything right.

    Summary

    “I need someone like you—someone who can keep up with him, and have his back, and maybe eventually even rein him in, should that be a thing that is humanly possible to do,” said Bobby, smiling warmly over the remaining half of his sandwich.

    “Oh, I see,” said Eddie. And he did now. That’s what Bobby’s whole hard sell was about—it wasn’t personal, it was about Eddie being the top of this class. “I know the type. You see guys a lot like that in the military.”

    “Oh, no,” said Bobby, “I didn’t mean to—well, what I mean is, I don’t think you have seen a lot of guys like Buck, to be honest. I don’t think there are a lot of people like him.”

    -----

    Hen & Chim discussing the new probie; Buck's forgotten shield ceremony; Eddie's first shift with the 118.

    Or: three early impressions of Buck, through the eyes of his future found family.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Perfect series that highlights the tragedy that is Buck's backstory but without infantilizing him
