    Summary

    “I’m just saying!” defends Buck, holding his palms out in surrender. “It’s not like I’ve had a lot of time to clear the pipes with everything going on. I can’t imagine you’re getting more time than I am to… enjoy yourself.” 

    “Enjoy myself.”

    “Yeah.” Buck swallows, thinking about how flushed and pretty Eddie would look in the aftermath of enjoying himself. “You deserve to enjoy yourself. To feel good. Chase the, um, the juice?”

    “You think the juice is jerking off.”

    “It’s a metaphor,” Buck sighs, nose scrunching. “I’m using your metaphor. I’m meeting you where you’re at. I’m—”

    “Trying to get me to go into the other room and whip my dick out?”

    “Yeah. Or—”

    Buck swears he hears Eddie’s breath catch. He finds Buck’s gaze again, looking a little like he’s been caught with his fingers dipping into the metaphorical jerking off with your bro cookie jar, voice tentative as he prompts, “...Or?”

    Or: Eddie’s iPad, and its many indiscretions.

    Summary

    [Eddie 11:48]
    Forgot how weird this is
    [Eddie 11:49]
    I mean not weird weird but different
    [Eddie 11:49]
    Slippery

    Fuck. Buck’s stomach does somersaults at that one-word text. He exhales a shaky, quivering breath, checking over his shoulder to make sure the coast is still clear. This must be how aristocrats felt when they saw a bare ankle.
    -----
    Buck and Eddie are both antsy for round two with Eddie's new parts. Just as soon as Buck gets off of work.

    Summary

    Eddie gets a far-away look in his eyes before he shakes his head and says, “It was–it was for the orphans, man.”

    And Buck knows there’s more to it than that, but he can still see the rigidity in Eddie’s shoulders so he decides to try and lighten the mood. “So where are you going to take Maddie out?”

    Hesitating, Eddie says, “I wasn’t planning on taking her anywhere. I Venmoed her the money and figured that was that.”

    “What, is she not good enough to spend an evening with?” Buck asks with mock indignation.

    “You want me to take your married—to our captain, might I add—sister out?”

    “Well, she is kinda your type.”

    Eddie arches an eyebrow. “And what type is that?”

    Or, Buck learns why Eddie's been so reluctant to rejoin the dating pool.

    Summary

    Eddie grabs Christopher’s backpack and gets the orange out of his lunchbox. “You want some of this?” He holds it out in Buck’s direction. “It’s been just as long since breakfast for you.”

    It has been a while since they last ate, and the adrenaline of the day is starting to wear off into the kind of hunger where Buck thinks he could single-handedly eat a large pizza without breaking a sweat, but…

    Every time someone offers him an orange, he thinks about this silly superstition from a book he picked up back in his wandering days:

    “If a boy gives a girl an orange, her love for him will multiply.”

    Or, Buck spends years doing anything he can to avoid taking oranges from Eddie (and falls in love anyway).

    Summary

    Someone exclaims in the background, but Buck’s voice cuts through louder when he asks, “You… you want to borrow my…?”

    “Flashlight,” Eddie supplies with patient emphasis. It is not, strictly speaking, a leap of faith to assume Buck of all people would have one, but he did move recently, so— who knows what’s still lost in Packed Box Limbo. “Please tell me you have one I can use.”

    “I…” there’s a lengthy pause on the other end, Buck’s voice weak and tapering off at the end. “Y-Yeah, okay.”

    Or: Eddie just needs to borrow some tools. Fleshlight, flashlight, what’s the difference? The distinction has never been more illuminating.
