    Summary

    "You think you’re dreaming.”

    Eddie hesitates, sitting back down slowly. “I am dreaming.”

    “Ah!” Buck says, blue eyes wide. “Or— or maybe you’re not. Maybe this is just a-a different life.”

    “A different life?” Eddie frowns. “What?”

    “You know,” Buck insists, “like, you went to sleep and you woke up somewhere else, in a different version of your life. And— and to get back, you probably have to do something.”

    “Like a— a parallel universe?”

    in which Eddie goes to sleep and wakes up somewhere else, Buck helps him get back home, and along the way Eddie learns what it means to choose juice.

    Summary

    Slowly, so slowly that he still had time to close his eyes, get back in the firetruck, and hide like a coward, his eyes took in the rest of the scene. U-Haul. Black truck. Back windows open. Front windows open. Windshield shattered. Front of the car completely obliterated, caving in on itself.

    A small body in the back, light curls visible through the open window. Chris.

    A larger body in the front, unmistakable soft strands moving in the breeze. Eddie.

    or

    Eddie and Chris get hurt on their way home from Texas.

    Summary

    “My mom died,” Buck says flatly, like reciting a fact he read somewhere. He adds a small shrug, as if that explains it. It doesn’t feel real. The words sit in the air, weightless and strange.

    Eddie frowns. Bobby shifts closer.

    “Are you okay?” Bobby asks gently.

    Buck blinks at him, then gives a quick nod, too fast to be convincing. “Yeah,” he says. His voice is thin, brittle. “Did you want me to start lunch? I was thinking maybe that cheesy broccoli bake.”

    Eddie’s brows knit together. “Buck…” he says carefully, voice low and steady.

    “Or chili,” Buck continues, his hands smoothing out a crease in his jacket like that’s the thing that matters. “I think we’ve got enough ground beef.”

    “Buck,” Eddie says again, firmer this time.

    Buck’s hands still. He finally looks up, meeting Eddie’s eyes.

    Oh.

    His mom died.

    or

    Margaret Buckley dies, and Buck tries to navigate grief, develops a complex relationship with apple pie, while Eddie, as always, is there.

    Summary

    Chimney sat down across from them and leaned forward, elbows on knees. "Theo. Buddy. What's Eddie do when Buck says something dumb?"

    "Chim,” Eddie groaned.

    Theo thought about it. Theo took it seriously; he tipped his head back and squinted, doing real cognitive labor, and then he turned to the room at large, dropped his chin, let his shoulders fall about an inch, and said, with a long-suffering exhale that came all the way up from his tiny diaphragm:

    "Buck."

    The loft went insane.

    It was perfect. That was the horrifying part. It wasn't a kid saying a name. It had the whole shape of it: the little drop at the end, the fondness sanded down into exhaustion so nobody would notice the fondness. Eddie had been saying that man's name that exact way since 2019 and had never once heard it from the outside, and now it was coming out of a preschooler in a costume, in front of everyone he worked with.

     

    Or, Theo copies Eddie

    Summary

    "So all four of them cancelled on you?" Eddie asked as he plopped down on Maddie's couch. 

    "Well I wouldn't say cancelled, per se," she replied as she grabbed another glass from the kitchen. "They just had—things that came up."

    "So they cancelled on this because of something else."

    Maddie paused, looking over at Eddie for a moment, who had a slight smirk on his face. 

    "Yeah, I guess they did."

    ...

     

    Eddie befriends Maddie over wine nights, which causes him to figure out the things that he really wants out of life
