Summary
Tommy hated how shocking it was to see him like that. Joyful. The last images he had of Evan were of a man hollowed out by pain with the sharp angles of his face, the dark circles under his eyes, and the constant exhaustion. He didn’t remember that smile.
Tommy sat across the table, silent more often than he wanted to be, pretending to follow the conversation. Every once in a while, Evan’s gaze would brush past his, unreadable, before moving on as if nothing had ever existed between them.
Tommy felt as if he were in hell.
-
Or, Tommy strikes up a friendship with Eddie, which draws him unexpectedly back into Evan Buckley’s orbit - his former and only love whose relationship with him ended in a painful breakup. Now, Tommy must navigate the pull of his lingering feelings against Evan’s apparent coldness.

Summary
"There is a flower growing inside of him. It should frighten him perhaps, the feeling of its leaves unfurling against his throat. But it isn't just a flower. It's his love for Eddie, manifested in the softness of its petals, the elegance of its being. How could he look at it, all bloody and blooming, and see it as anything but beautiful."
Or; In the middle of unprocessed grief and the aftermath of New Mexico, Buck develops hanahaki disease. It doesn't end well.

Summary
These days, them getting dressed for work together isn’t out of the ordinary. Neither is Buck waking Chris up for school while Eddie takes a shower, or Buck cooking breakfast while Eddie lingers nearby, going over the bills at the dining table, or Chris trying to finish up last night’s homework while they eat their eggs and bacon.
Buck likes the company. It isn’t the same as Abby or Taylor or…Tommy, cuddling at night while sneaking kisses underneath the sheets, but maybe he’ll let himself admit it’s better.
In Eddie's absence, Buck moves into his house. Now that Eddie and Chris are back, things are different. Not bad. Just different.

Summary
Once he’s safely in the Jeep Buck lets his head fall back against the seat. He’s not having a panic attack, he’s not going to be sick, and he’s certainly not going to cry. Buck just feels lost. Suddenly he’s as much the kid the others think him to be. How is he supposed to cope with this.
“Why are you still fucking dead?” Buck asks the imaginary Bobby in the passenger seat. “You were supposed to be here for me for this sort of shit. You were supposed to tell me what to do.”
In the wake of Bobby's death and the birth of his nephew, Buck receives a diagnosis and makes some well meaning, but ultimately ill considered life choices. Will the path he's set himself on break him? Or will it be the making of the next new iteration of Buck?

Summary
“What’s this?” asks Buck, picking up a pamphlet from the loft’s kitchen counter.
“I’m pretty sure you can read, Buck,” answers Chim, popping his gum. Usually, Buck wouldn’t be irritated by that, but Chim’s the interim captain due to Bobby’s cruise, and everything gets on his nerves.
“I can read,” Buck huffs. “I’m just confused. How does this work?”
He looks down at the pamphlet again. The deep red letters that say, are you a first responder looking for a buddy who understands your woes? — Fireapp’s got you covered!
_____
OR Buck joins a support app for first responders and matches with a firefighter who has PTSD and a kid who likes giraffes, apparently.
