Summary
When the wave hit, Buck did what he always did - he fought. For his life, yes, but more importantly, for Christopher’s. And he did it. Against all odds, he found Chris. Saved him.
Until he lost him again.
So Buck searched. Ignoring the exhaustion, the pain, the strange stillness that filled the ruined streets of LA, he searched. He just had to find Christopher, and everything would be fine.
It had to be.
Inspired by the interview in which Oliver Stark was told, “If my child went into that water, the next second, I don’t care if it’s suicide, I would be in the water after him.”

Summary
After the tsunami that devastated Los Angeles, Athena goes to the rescue after a report of people in need of help. To her horror, she finds Christopher and Buck stranded amidst the wreckage of the city. And Buck’s leg is pinned — the same leg that had only just healed from being crushed by a ladder truck.
As time runs out, Buck is being crushed all over again, and Athena faces an impossible choice. With Christopher watching, she must decide: do the unthinkable, risking Buck’s career as a firefighter forever, or hesitate — and let the man beloved by the 118 die in front of the boy who might as well be his son?

Summary
“Great,” Buck groaned, the image of Bobby standing on the rooftop and telling him ‘you’re done’ in that firm, no-nonsense tone filling his mind.
He smacked his forehead against the table and groaned again.A performance review.
Great. Just great.
(He didn’t see Hen and Chimney exchanging knowing smirks and he was still muffling his groans against the table when they went over to the kitchen to refill their coffee mugs and had a hushed conversation:
“Should we tell him that Bobby also asks for feedback?”
“Nah,” Hen replied mischievously. “I kind of want to hear what he’ll come up with on the spot.”)
--
5 times Bobby has feedback for Buck during his annual review, and the one time Buck gets a perfect score and has some feedback of his own.
(Or, the progression of Buck and Bobby's relationship as told by annual performance reviews.)

Summary
Margaret and Phillip spent years not seeing their children and then slowly got back into contact with them until this point, where they think they’re in a pretty decent place, actually.
Except then Buck gets injured and, as his hospital room fills with evidence of a life they know absolutely nothing about and they meet and hear about people they’ve never heard of (including a child?!), they realise that perhaps it was all simply too little, too late after all.
—--
Or, the one where Buck builds a family and his birth parents get exposed to pieces of it in the aftermath of 6x10: In a Flash.

Summary
The AU where Bobby adopted Evan when he was six years old, and then twenty years later Eddie joins the 118 and starts dating Buck... and no one initially realises that Evan and Buck are, in fact, the same person. Part 1 is the story of the identity shenanigans and the reveal.
Part 3 is a collection of missing scenes from the original story, while Parts 4 ('how it could have gone') and 5 ('another way it could have gone') are outtakes and depict two different scenarios where the reveal of Buck and Evan being the same person go a different way.
Part 2 'oh captain my captain' is a prequel and shows the 118 meeting Bobby and then later on Evan.
Part 6 'these are the days we've been waiting for' is the story of Buck's first day at the 118.
Part 7 'may you live in interesting times' is a sequel to that takes place about a year or so later, and Part 8 'I once was lost (but now I'm found)' directly follows on and is a full-length sequel and prequel to the main story.
This series as it is now is standalone and can be considered complete. The only reason I haven't marked it as such is because I do expect to be adding additional installments at some point in the future. Happy reading!

Summary
“What happened? Is he – was it a blood clot?”
Bobby was parsing through every moment he had seen Buck during their shift – had he missed Buck favouring his leg in some way? Or rubbing his chest? Coughing?
Damn it, he’d known the risk was too high, why was Buck always so stubborn?
His entire body was pulsing with fear-fuelled adrenaline as he considered all of the worst case scenarios. He was so focused on his own imaginings that he almost missed the nurse’s hurried reassurance.
“No, no, not a blood clot. Mr Buckley was brought in by paramedics after cutting himself.”
Bobby froze.
--
Or, the episode tag to 3x06 Monsters, wherein Bobby makes an entirely incorrect assumption about what Buck ‘cutting himself’ means but at least it actually forces them to have a conversation and resolve some things.

Summary
Tommy has a very large house. He knew it didn’t make sense: he was a single man, no family to speak of, living in an expensive city… But he’d gotten it cheap because it needed a lot of work (in fairness, so did he) and maybe, just maybe, one day he would be able to fill that stupidly big house with the family he’d been craving for so many years.
And then he gets pulled back into the 118 and meets Evan Buckley, who has a very extensive (found) family but is still searching for the elusive puzzle piece that will make him truly feel like he’s found his place.
Together, they build their home.

Or, the one where Tommy and Buck help each other find what they’ve been looking for: home.

Summary
[Sent 20:00] I’m sorry I still haven’t gone to visit you. For some reason the texting is easier.
Maybe it’s because a part of me is still hoping that you’ll somehow respond.
I know that’s illogical and it would make you worry. But I can’t stop myself from hoping anyway no matter how stupid it is.
--
Or, Buck copes with Bobby’s death by sending him text messages (featuring the occasional cameo text thread from the rest of the family).
[Note - this story can stand alone and there is no need to read the first part of the series. They are only connected by virtue of being Buck and Bobby epistolary fics]
