Summary
Welcome to the 118, Buck.
I love you, kid.
The words flicker across his mind as he drifts off to sleep.
Bobby felt like home.
And, even though Eddie won’t be in Buck’s bed tomorrow morning, even though Eddie’ll be squished between Chimney and Ravi on Buck’s living room floor and complaining about his aching back, even though Buck and Eddie won’t talk about this - the way they don’t talk about a lot of things -
Eddie feels like home, too.
*
Or - Buck was once told, “You don’t find it, son. You make it.” Now, a year after Bobby’s death, that’s what Buck intends to do. With Eddie. Soon, they’ll both realize that making a life together is what they’ve been doing all along. A vision of what season 10 could be.

Summary
Bobby Nash is dead.
He’s not crouched over in prayer anymore. He’s not at the lab.
He doesn’t know where he is. There’s no one here to tell him.
His surroundings are white - not sterile, hospital white, but a few shades lighter. Off-white. Cream. A comfortable white. It’s empty here. No physical environment. No room.
This isn’t Heaven. This isn’t Hell. This isn’t Purgatory.
He knows this for certain.
Bobby’s not physically in a body.
He’s just… here… existing. Not dead or alive. Somewhere in between.
*
Or - Bobby dies without closure. He needs to visit Buck’s past, present, and future in order to get it. Witness Bobby’s relationship with Buck, and Buck’s relationship with Eddie, through Bobby’s eyes.

Summary
Eddie’s terrified. The weight lodged in his chest has shifted to complete and utter panic. His skin is hot. His eyes are burning. There was once a time when he’d say, I do not panic, but even that was a lie. Eddie panics a lot, actually. But he’s been taught how to manage it, how to make himself Jello, how to bring himself back to reality.
But this reality is what’s panic-inducing, and he can’t Jello himself out of this one.
Because he’s not scared for himself. Eddie’s killed men before. More than four at a time. Eddie’s, objectively, been in worse situations than this. Eddie’s been shot and stabbed and buried.
But he’s never been in a situation like this, with a four-year-old who means the world to him, a four-year-old who’s Buck’s son.
*
Or - Eddie takes Theo to the mall. The trip does NOT go as planned, when robbers infiltrate and they’re forced into a hostage situation.

Summary
Moving slowly, Buck sits up in bed. Groans. Reaches the heel of his hands to press tenderly against his eyes. Inhales, taking in a deep breath. Exhales. Finally, he’s able to open his eyes, and he draws back his hands.
Then, he realizes.
These are not his hands.
Buck stares, flexing out his fingers - not his fingers. They’re long, slender, a little dainty. The index and middle fingers are home to delicate gold rings. The nails are press-ons, colored dark maroon, and what the actual fuck.
A sound comes from his mouth - not his mouth - and it’s a sweet, womanly squeak. Oh god oh god oh god.
*
Or - the fic where Buck is in love with Eddie, wakes up every day in a different body, and has no idea what to do about either.

Summary
And, here, looking at his best friend, he can see that something’s broken inside him, too. And, maybe it’s the therapy he’s had over the years, his sessions with Frank, but Eddie wants to talk to Buck. He wants Buck to talk to him. Buck, who just looks so fucking sad, still in his dress blues, one hand drinking the beer, the other coming up to loosen his tie.
This morning, Eddie had noticed Buck tying, untying, retying the tie with breaths of frustration, fingers shaking. “Eddie,” he’d said lowly from across the room, and Eddie wouldn’t have even heard him if he hadn’t been watching. “I, uh, can never – I can never get this right.”
*
In the aftermath of Bobby’s death, Buck and Eddie need to learn to embrace change, settle into a new normal - a life without Bobby, and life navigating feelings for each other. A vision of what season 9 could be.

Summary
Running to the frontlines from a childhood he never had. Taking a bat to the wall with his son in the next room. Having an affair with the spitting image of his dead wife.
Eddie knows he’s never been good at grieving, knows he’s never been good at losing what little he allows for himself in the first place. This is why he also knows his coping mechanisms can’t possibly get any worse.
Buck, as he so often does, makes him reevaluate his assumptions.

Evan Buckley dies behind a wall of glass. It’s a shame that when he’s revived not three minutes later, no one is informed.- Language:

Summary
“I just don’t see what the big deal is,” Chimney says, joining them at the table. “Why don’t you just go on the trip, Buck? Take Eddie. We can get your shifts covered, it’s, what—three nights?”
“The big deal,” Buck says in exasperation, slamming his fork down, “is that it’s a couples retreat. For couples.”
“And?” Chimney raises his eyebrows, still not buying it.
“And I entered the giveaway when Tommy and I were still together!” Buck snaps. ”I don’t want t-to—it would just feel weird, okay? It’s supposed to be all—like, romantic. Flower petals on the bed and stuff.”
Buck and Eddie take a romantic getaway. Platonically.
