    Summary

    “But your happiness is a priority, too, you know?”


    Of course he knows, but knowing and doing something about it are two completely different things. 
    Of course he knows it’s okay to be happy himself.


    Of course he knows what will make him happy. But sometimes we don’t do the same for the things that make us happy, and that defeats the purpose, doesn’t it? That goes against being happy with it, when you know in your heart that they don’t feel the same way you do. 


    What use is it to be with them when you can’t give them everything they want? When you’re ready to surrender your all and it still seems like it isn’t enough? 

    Or: The four times Eddie confesses his feelings to four different people: Chim, Bobby, Chris and Buck.

    Summary

    "Because you're dead." Death said standing. "Okay, this place, this is the In-Between. Or as you mortals like to call it, Purgatory, or Limbo, the In-Between is like..." Death paused. "What that thing you call when you land from one airport to another to another location? What do you call that...oh right! A layover. The In-Between is like a layover for souls, a place where they wait before moving on to their final destination," Death explained.

    Buck's mind was racing, trying to comprehend the situation he found himself in. "So, what happens next?" he asked nervously.

    Death smiled, "Well next we determine the fate of your soul," Death replied.

     

    "The fate of my soul?" Buck narrowed his eyes with confusion. "Like the Scales of Justice? In Egyptian Mythology?" Buck asked.

    Death smiled. "It's kind of like that, yes. Just a little different. Are you done with your tea? It's time to move on to the next step." Buck took one last sip of his tea, feeling a strange mixture of anticipation and fear. As he placed the cup back on the saucer, Death motioned for Buck to follow her. "It's right through the backyard."

    Summary

    “Ok, so I have them all categorized. Do you want them by year, color, or season?”

    Eddie’s eyes widened with a bit of fear. What the hell had Athena gotten him into?

    “Um, how about you tell me about your ducks first…what kind are they?”

    Buck deadpanned. “Rubber.”

    Eddie shook his head, trying to hide his surprise as he pulled out of the parking lot.

    Buck let out a cackle, startling Eddie a little.

    “You didn’t think I was talking about live duck’s did you?”

    Buck said it like it was the most ridiculous thing in the world, as if any of their conversation had been semi normal.

    “No, I guess I’m just—confused is all,” was what Eddie settled with.
    Buck shook his head as he tapped at his clipboard.

    “You’ve never heard of Jeep ducking?”

    Eddie shook his head as he turned on his blinker.
    “Can’t say that I have.”

    —or—

    The 1 time Buck gets held at gunpoint and robbed of his ducks, and the 6 times Eddie replaces them. Eddie’s a cop, bucks a firefighter, there’s rubber ducks, what more can I say?

    Summary

    Eddie is dying again.
    A shutdown electrical cable turned out to to be live after all, and Eddie is dying again.
    He feels gloved hands on his face, and hears Hen's voice calling his name.
    "Eddie, wake up!"
    And because Eddie is tired of dying, he decides he will.
    ****
    Eddie opens his eyes to familiar hospital ceiling tiles, and familiar hospital walls, and familiar worried faces looming over the bed. When they see he's awake, Hen and Chimney grin at each other and Bobby murmurs a quiet "Thank you" heavenward.
    "Chris..." he rasps. His throat is so dry. How long was I out for this time? He feels something heavy settle on his chest at the thought.

    Summary

    Buck only nuzzled closer, his breath ghosting over Eddie’s lips, begging Eddie to take that last step.

    “Ev, please don’t make this harder than it already is.”

    Buck’s lips were all but touching his, their noses pressed together. Buck was all around him, voice pleading.

    “Just one Eds, please.”

    That was the problem. It was never just one; once they dove into the world of each other, it was almost impossible to stop—they could never get enough. Not enough kisses, touches, or sweet sounds made between them would ever be enough; if there was one thing they never tired of, it was each other.

    —or—

    A collection of firsts in Buck and Eddie’s relationship, from when they met as teenagers, to now. Aka the teen buddie au.

    Summary

    Five times Buck sends a song to Eddie to listen to, and one time where Eddie sends one back.

    OR

    Buck makes a playlist for Eddie for his birthday, and it's all songs that remind him of Eddie. There are a lot of feelings involved.

    ---------------
    Eddie and Christopher,

    Hey, I hope you’re having a great time in Texas. Only wish I could be there with you. Say hi to your parents and your sisters for me! I’ve arranged a special boys’ day out for me and Chris when you get back, tell him I miss him. Oh, and I miss you too, of course, Eddie. Work isn’t the same without you. I mean Ravi is great and all, but you’re better.

    Anyway, the real reason I’m emailing is because it’s your birthday on Saturday, it is now Monday, and I had no clue what to get you. And I was lying in bed last night and I thought of something. Remember when we were kids, and you’d make a CD for your friends? Kinda like a next-gen mixtape? Well, I’m making you one. Not a CD, but a playlist on Spotify for you to listen to, and all the songs are gonna be songs that remind me of you. I’m gonna send you one every morning, and you have to listen to it, and then I’ll send you the whole playlist on your birthday!

    Summary

    Eddie Diaz got struck by lightning. And then he lied about getting checked by a doctor. Then he stayed at the hospital not only the entire time Buck was unconscious, but until he and the rest of the fire family were allowed to see him.

    Eddie barely ate, slept, or drank. And he was absolutely out of his mind with worry. And how could he NOT have injuries from the lightning?

    Well, Eddie collapses while they’re all gathered in the hospital room.

    Buck panics.

    And not unlike Buck when he was comatose, Eddie has a chat with some familiar faces. (With a twist or two!)
