    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov has been drafted by Boston, the number one pick overall, but his father doesn't want him moving to America and so takes steps to block his visa. He's going to have to go back to Russia and stay there forever and that, thinks Shane Hollander, is wrong.

    It's so wrong that Shane can't stop himself from doing something about it. Even though that something is the most reckless, the only reckless thing he's ever done in his life. He marries Rozanov in secret, to keep him out of Russia and put him on a path to Canadian citizenship.

    Shane's got a five-year plan to get him there and when you have a plan nothing can go wrong. Right? Right. When you have a solid plan and a marriage that's on paper only there's no risk of feelings getting involved. Not on Rozanov's part and certainly not on Shane's.

    Right???

    (or, the story of how Shane Hollander fell in love with his own husband)

    Summary

    And all of that was why, on their seventeenth day on Mars, Buck had shoved Eddie out of the way during the emergency evacuation, knowing it meant his own death instead of Eddie’s. Buck trusted Eddie to help get everyone else home, and Eddie had someone to go home for. Someone who needed him and loved him. Someone who Buck loved, even without ever meeting. He wasn’t going to let Chris grow up without a father. So in the split second he had to think after seeing the communications dish flying at them through the storm that was chasing them off the planet fourteen days early, he’d pushed Eddie out of the way, hoping like hell it would be enough and knowing he wouldn’t live long enough to find out.

    --

    Or, when their mission to Mars goes wrong, Buck gets stranded and the rest of the crew does everything they can to save him. | Fic is complete at ~120k words and posting 2-3x a week as I edit.

    “If I could get everyone’s attention up the front, please?” The professor sighs. “I know I’m not as interesting as our new student, but I am the one with the answers to your exam.”

    More eyes turn to him. Buck is about to beg the universe for a sinkhole or a lightning strike or something.

    “Professor?” Someone asks, breaking the awkward tension. Buck swivels and finds the cutest boy he’s ever seen.

    Summary

    Little Evan "Buck" Buckley dreamed of where he was now. He has a supportive family around him, his sister is by his side, and he spends every day working with dinosaurs. How much better could it get?

    Eddie Diaz (single dad, Silver Star recipient, former army medic) was just trying to find a job that would keep him from getting bored, be relatively safe, and set his son up for life. How dangerous could working at a luxury resort be, even if that resort was full of deadly predators?

    There's no better way to bond than fighting for your lives in the island jungle, and Buck and Eddie are about to be put to the ultimate test. It's up to them and the rest of the 118 to put a stop to the prehistoric attack, and who knows what'll happen along the way.

    Summary

    Eddie Diaz lives a quiet life as a firefighter and single father to his son, Christopher. After the tragic death of his wife, Eddie accepted that he'll never find love again.

    When Eddie and Chris discover mermaids are real after a violent storm washes one ashore, their world is turned upside down. Buck is charming and kind, with bright blue eyes and an even bluer tail, and a determination to prove to his father that true love exists in order to avoid an arranged marriage. He enlists the help of Eddie and Chris in his quest for love, a job which Eddie takes seriously. While trying to balance setting Buck up on dates and protecting his secret from everyone around them, Eddie finds that Buck fits perfectly into his life.

    He wants Buck to find love, wants him to prove his father wrong, so why is it so hard to see him happy with someone else?

    Summary

    Eddie watches snowflakes slowly land in Buck’s hair, some strands breaking free from the rest and moving in the wind. And Eddie has to remind himself, that he isn’t real. That the hurt he thinks he’s seeing on the android’s face is just a program, and that the curls on top of his head are nowhere near as soft as they look.

    “I’m whatever you want me to be, Lieutenant,” Buck answers him calmly, and his voice is just as gentle and undeterred as always. “Your partner. Your buddy who’ll happily watch your son. Or just a machine. Designed to accomplish a task.”

    Summary

    His therapist had said that he should take up a relaxing hobby. And Abuela had taught him to knit a long time ago, and had encouraged him to get started again by sending him some of her needles and wool, so now he knits to relax. And now he’s looking up more complex patterns online and commenting on a knitting subreddit.

    He doesn’t mean to make a friend; it just sort of happens accidentally. They talk a lot in the comments about different techniques and patterns, then move their conversation to a private chat. It starts out knitting based, then the occasional comment about other things, and after a while they exchange real names.

    Summary

    After he's satisfied with the videos on his phone he looks at Eddie, "So, besides you being bad at tiktok and having the cutest kid on the planet—who is absolutely welcome in the studio any time, by the way—is there anything else I should know before we become dance partners?"

    Maybe it's the cocky grin on Buck's face or the way Eddie can feel the start of something in his gut when he looks at Buck, but either way he says, "I don't do showmances. We're going to win this season, but I'm not getting votes by making doe eyes at you and leaking rumors to the press."

    "What if they're not rumors?" Buck waggles his eyebrows.

    Summary

    They’re interrupted when Ravi walks a little ahead from them and turns, raising his voice. “Uh, guys?” They look over to where Ravi’s stood, right across from the Castle’s front gates, which are now open.

    Huh, weren’t they shut just a moment ago? Eddie frowns, and looks through his camera roll. Yeah, they were. That’s odd. They didn’t hear or see anyone. And no one’s there, welcoming them in, either. Weird.

    As they walk inside, the clouds slowly roll over the sky, thick and angry, and as the sun sets it leaves blood red light coating all the walls at Hearst Castle. Or as the ghosts once called it, the Enchanted Hill.

    The gate closes behind them.

    Summary

    “Every day for a long time now, I’ve thought about how I would die. In a desert, in a fire, in a tornado or a storm or disaster. It would always be trying to save someone else, someone who needs help. But dying in the arms of someone I love… seems like a good way to go.”

    A sound like thunder beats against the ground as the deer takes off, lost in the blur of green and brown around them, and Eddie turns his head to try to watch it run away.

    ***

    Eddie and Chris leave the desert in El Paso to move closer to Abuela in Forks, Washington. Along the way, there's Evan Buckley, with his gold eyes and intense stare. It was an unconditional and irrevocable truth that they were always going to be crashing into one another.

    “So um, how do you like it here?”

    This was the first time they’d really talked, Eddie not wanting the conversation to end, Buck not appearing to either.

    Eddie shrugged his shoulders, looking right at Buck.

    “All this Halloween stuff is…whatever. But some of it’s not so bad.”

    Buck ducked his head, Eddie just catching a shy smile splaying over his face.

    “You uh, you don’t believe in any of it?”

    “You mean like the Sanderson sisters?” Eddie shook his head. “No way.”

    Buck arched a brow. “Not even on Halloween?”

    Eddie tutted his tongue. “Especially not on Halloween.”

    Buck shined those pretty blues to him once more, flashing a toothy grin as he nodded toward the note.

    “Trick-r-treat.”

    “It’s yours,” Eddie had finally said, looking down at it for a moment before handing the phone to him. “I… There’s a lot of stuff you might want to go through on there.”

    Buck frowned, confused, but when he looked down at the screen, he saw it.

     

    [250 missed calls]
    [635 unread messages]

     

    “Wha–”

    “A lot of people used it as a… A way to communicate with you while you were gone.”

    Eddie’s voice was tense. Buck couldn’t stop staring, reading the top message from Eddie over and over again, the only one that he could see. It didn’t make sense.

    “You don’t have to go through it all but… We missed you, ba– Buck.” Buck slowly looked up from his phone, and there was that look again. Eddie had reached out, the same way he had when Buck came back, fingers brushing across his face gently. Buck wanted to melt into it. He did, later, but in that moment, he had to keep himself together.

    “I want to.”

    “Okay,” Eddie’s hand had dropped. Buck’s skin felt cold. “Come get me when you’re done.”
