    Summary

    Eddie has to stop Chris from sneaking food to the dog during dinner. “I know the meatballs aren’t your favorite,” he says tiredly. “But they have garlic in them, which isn’t good for the dog.”

    Chris stops immediately, to his credit. “Sorry,” he says, and leans down to performatively whisper to the dog, “You’re not missing much anyway.”

    “Hey,” Eddie says, with no heat. “I know they aren’t as good as --” He catches himself.

    Chris wilts in his chair. “Sorry,” he mumbles again, and Eddie hates himself so much that for a second, he can’t breathe.

    “Hen brought treats we can give the dog after dinner,” he tries instead, and Ladder Truck Dog’s ears prick up at the sound of words he recognizes, which at least makes Chris smile, just a little.

    .

    Buck goes missing. The 118 gets a dog. These two facts are unrelated, right?

    Summary

    'Eddie, there’s blood on the floor. Are you hurt? Are you sick? I need to check you over—.'

    ’Buck. Don’t come any closer,’ Eddie pleads and it’s so strange because he’s obviously weak and hurting but that base fear, that terror, it hasn’t gone away, sharpening beneath Buck's breastbone as he inches nearer, crouching down beside Eddie, reaching out his hand.

    His fingers close around Eddie’s wrist and Buck is stressed, frantic, he must be seeing things, the light is low and obscuring, a single terrible freeze frame conjured up by his imagination; Eddie’s teeth, already pointed, becoming sharp, elongated, and his eyes shading to black, sclera to sclera, lunging forward, jaws yawning wide. Buck scrambles backwards, landing on his ass, breathing hard but the image is gone as quickly as it came and it’s just Eddie looking at him with eyes bloodshot and fearful.

    'Please tell me what’s going on,' Buck says, except he already knows, has known since he stepped through the door and Eddie pinned him in place with that disarming gaze.

    Summary

    “Hey, Buck?” Christopher says. “How do you know you’re not in love with my dad?”

    Buck freezes. A full body clench. “Uh,” he says. “Could you - - I think I - - sorry,” he laughs uncomfortably. “Could you repeat the question?”

    “I asked Dad, but now I’m more confused. And you date men, right? But you don’t date Dad. So how do you know you don’t want to date Dad?”

     

    Or, Christopher has some questions. He asks the two worst possible people.

    Summary

    “You’re angry,” Anders said, hoping to dispel the anger, or to at least allow it to come forth. The sooner it was dealt with the better.
    Hawke nodded his head, looking down at Anders’ healed hand.
    “I’m sorry,” Anders said again. “You can be angry at me. I destroyed everything you–”
    “Stop. I’m not angry at you. Not like that.”

    Summary

    Without waiting for a reaction or reply, the man bore down on the gas and peeled down the highway, leaving Buck stranded in the middle of nowhere somewhere along Interstate 10.

    And as Buck watched the red brake lights of his Jeep disappear into the distance, clutching his prescription of blood thinners tightly to his chest... there was really only one thing left to do. Tilting his head back until he was staring at the stars, he took a deep breath and screamed into the night:

    “Fuck!”

    And much like every other one of his recent cries for help, it had gone unanswered.

    ---

    Buck gets carjacked, held at gunpoint, and stranded in Arizona the day before his first shift post-lawsuit. And that's only the beginning of his troubles.
