Summary
Eddie is working hard on figuring himself out, getting a life, and also reestablishing contact with Buck after worrying about them drifting apart and their friendship changing. Realizing that sometimes people misunderstand his relationship with Buck should not be the shock it is. Also, if Chris could stop launching verbal sneak attacks on him, he'd appreciate it.
Meanwhile, Buck's learning to parent a toddler while not at all being insecure about something said by one Margaret Buckley. He's just studiously avoiding the word 'Parent' like the plague, and otherwise doing his damn best.
or
If Buck had a nickel for every time someone left him their kid in their will without his knowledge—well, he’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice now.

Summary
“I understand –“
“You don’t. He’s not your kid.”
The words just slipped out and he can’t take them back, and so Eddie can only watch helplessly as Buck visibly shatters. He makes a small step forward, towards Buck, but stops dead in his tracks when he sees the anger and hurt in the other man’s eyes.-- When Buck confronts Eddie about his decision to leave the 118, things go from bad to worse, and Eddie fears that this time a few choice words have ruined everything. Will he be able to fix what's been broken?

Summary
“He’s not,” Christopher interrupted after he swallowed, his eyebrows furrowed, “that’s not- no. Bucks not my uncle.”
His abuela waved a dismissive hand, “Oh, of course not, I know that. Isn’t that a thing you young ones do? Refer to your parents' close friends as aunts or uncles?”
And here’s the thing, yes. He refers to Hen and Karen as his aunties. He’s never blinked at that. He routinely tells people that he and Denny are basically cousins.
Sure, he even calls Maddie and Chim his aunt and uncle without a second thought, but that’s because - well, that’s because..
“He’s not my uncle,” Christopher repeated, “He’s my other dad.”
••
OR Five times Christopher Diaz sets the record straight on who Buck is to him and the one time he makes sure Buck knows it too.
(and a buddie confession just for funsies)

Summary
“I was here to see an oncologist.” Buck said, still fidgeting around with his seatbelt, not looking up.
The blood in Ravi’s veins froze.
Growing up, Ravi spent every weekend in hospitals getting chemo therapy because of cancer. He was familiar with oncologists and what they do, and hearing Buck say he came to see one was another level of horror.
“Buck, why did you need to see a doctor who specializes in cancer?” Ravi asked, trying to keep his voice from wavering. Buck stopped messing with his seatbelt and looked up at Ravi. Ravi was chewing at his bottom lip in worry, and shot Buck a pleading look, desperate for answers.
or
One day Buck asked Ravi for a favor, that leads them on a journey of trust, support and secrets.
