Summary
Eddie thinks he should be mad that Chris chose not to interview him for his “Most Influential Adult in Your Life” assignment at school. You’d think raising a kid for 14 years would easily grant him that title – all the video game purchases and packed lunches, the long nights and the roof over their heads should have made him a shoo-in.
He should be pissed. Honestly, how embarrassing is it, that his own son wouldn’t consider his dad the most influential person in his life? But Eddie just cannot find it in himself to care, because Chris has chosen his sunshine of a best friend, Evan Buckley – his Buck – to wear that crown.

Summary
Shen Qingqiu was prepared for demons, swords, and betrayal... not pointy hats, dragons, elves and this suspiciously ring with cursed vibes. Now caught in a world with no cultivation, and far too much walking, Shen Qingqiu must rely on his greatest skills: talking nonsense with confidence and pretending to have a plan while hoping he doesn’t die a third time.
Or: Shen Qingqiu transmigrates to Middle Earth after he self detonates.

Summary
Hen sighs. “Something had to be said before you idiots put us in mortal peril.”
“I’d never do anything to jeopardize our safety on a job! You know that Hen.”
“Maybe not on purpose,” Chim chimes in, “but, see, the thing is, when you flirt with our Buck, his brain turns off. He just bluescreens.”
“You’re flustering the poor boy, Eddie,” Hen adds. “And it’s making him dumb.”
“-er,” Chim adds.
“Wha- Buck isn’t flustered.”
Eddie is flustered. His face feels hot. He takes another sip of his coffee to give his hands something do to, but that only makes him feel warmer. Shit.
Hen levels him with the most deadpan look. “Last week he walked into a stop sign after you called him ‘big boy’ on a call.”
Eddie nearly spits out his coffee.
Or: the one where Eddie subconsciously flirts with Buck without realizing and Buck is actively trying not to have a heart attack at work about it

Summary
From there, it becomes a thing. At least once a day, either Christopher or Buck declare that a mild inconvenience is a part of the anti-gay agenda.
They hit every red light? During pride month? Homophobic.
The hot water stops working? In June? Homophobic.
Or, Eddie doesn't think he really needs to come out to anyone. Christopher adopts a new catchphrase. Buck is confused.

Summary
Raphael’s trying his best not to be nosy, but his eyes land on Eddie’s screen anyway, and he huffs out a quiet laugh. “My wife sends me stuff like that, too. I don’t know where she finds it.”
“If she’s anything like Buck, she’s got the oddity section on AP News bookmarked.”
Eddie’s card makes a soft little beep as he taps it against the machine, and Raphael smiles at him as he tears the receipt off and hands it over. “How long have y’all been together?”
...or, everyone in El Paso has lost their minds.
