    Summary

    Chris showed up knowing he was meant to be in class. Knowing that’s where everyone assumed he was. But he needed to talk to a counselor and his grandparents weren’t doing anything to get him in anywhere. They just said to talk to them. Yeah, hard pass. He already had to deal with hearing them talk shit about his dad and dead mom, he was not talking to them only for them to say he needed to forget it all and just enjoy where he was. Or pray. Because they believed prayer and religion fixed everything. So he’d gone online and scheduled his own appointment, it was actually pretty easy, and was now in the waiting room. He’d had to watch Buck make appointments enough times that he knew how to do it. Plus Denny, Harry, AND May all said to go for it.

    Or.

    Chris is tired of his grandparents trying to gaslight him into staying with them. He's also tired of his dad sticking to his word to let Chris decide what happens next. He wants his dad to be his dad. So he goes to therapy, loudly and repeatedly threatens to run away, calls Buck, and somehow manages to get through it all with his family more complete than it ever had been before.

    Summary

    Eddie Diaz realizes he’s bisexual at approximately 11:30 PM.

    By 9:14 AM the next morning, he has:
    - Dumped his girlfriend,
    - Proposed marriage to Buck,
    _ Emotionally compromised an entire fire engine,
    - Held Buck hostage in radiology, and
    - Turned a Level 1 Trauma Center into a live studio audience.

    The thing is, Buck would’ve handled this better if Eddie had:
    - NOT proposed marriage in the middle of a gas leak,
    - NOT immediately started flirting like a menace,
    - NOT weaponized ER paperwork,
    - NOT trapped him in a CT room,
    - NOT weaponized eye contact,
    - NOT somehow become hotter in a hospital gown, and
    - NOT had an entire emergency department acting as witnesses.

    Evan Buckley, is, in a word, doomed.

    Summary

    Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.

    But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.

    Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.

     

    (or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

    Summary

    “I’ll do whatever you want, just, please.” Buck sobs out the last word, eyes burning with unshed tears.

    “A vow.” The man leans uncomfortably close to Buck. The knife brushes against his neck, lightly scratching across the top layer of Buck’s skin. The man’s cold blue eyes hold Buck’s full attention. “That’s what I require. Sell me your allegiance.”

    Buck stares back at the killer, unable to fully process what is being asked of him. He sees a flash of anger dance in the stranger’s gaze. He's impatient. Unpredictable. Fear pours into Buck's chest as he realizes he might not get a second chance at this. He has to make this count. “I vow to give you complete control over the remainder of my life. My body is yours to destroy—so long as you let my sister live and return safely to her family.”

    __

    Or, After Eddie leaves for Texas, Buck goes to seek comfort from his sister and walks in on her kidnapping. In order to save Maddie's life, Buck offers up his instead. Unintentionally agreeing to something worse than death.
