Summary
Carter doesn't quite know what compels him to do what he does. Perhaps it's some misguided sense of heroism, his lifelong inability to just let things be when there's something- anything- he can do about it. Perhaps it's reckless stupidity brought on by yet another shift of doing anything but saving lives.
Whatever it is, he leans into it fully, and slips into the freezing depths.
OR
The one where Carter almost drowns.

BTHB prompt- Sleep Deprivation
There was a second, John thinks, when he knew the elastic was going to snap, right before it actually did. His eyes had been closed, he remembers, and his muscles tensed for the impact of the rubber on his hand. Right before the slingshot broke. Right before. Right before.
Right before he snaps, John knows something is about to happen too.
His vision falters. His hearing grows distant. His stomach swoops, and the world tilts.
And then he's on the ground.
OR
The one where Carter is sleep deprived in S3, except it goes catastrophically wrong.

Summary
“Dr Carter's… Dr Carter's been shot.”
Those are the words that crackle through County General's radio, but nobody truly believes them until the ambulance screeches to a halt outside the entrance, and Mark tugs open the passenger side door- only for Carter's unconscious body to list out, covered in blood from the neck down. Somebody sobs.
“I drove as fast as I could.” Zadro explains, stumbling over his words as the assembled team (Mark, Carol, Lydia, Malik) struggles to pull Carter onto a backboard. “Tried to put pressure on his neck but the blood just kept coming.”
OR
Carter is shot in S5 E17 instead of the other paramedic.

Summary
Southern California is where Buck has spent the most time since leaving Pennsylvania. Of all the places he’s lived and worked over the last few years, this place is where he decided to stay. It’s why he picked LAFD: to put down some roots. It’s warm, has the ocean, and it’s the opposite coast of his parents. So if he’s going to be here for a while, he thinks he’ll need to make an effort to let people in.

The fic about Buck letting people at the 118 know him, knowing himself and also me fixing canon as I go along.

Summary
It was a simple scene – just your ordinary, average, run of the mill multi-vehicular accident. It should have been nothing. It was nothing. Until a runaway drunk driver on a bridge changed everything.
And Eddie, working at dispatch, could only listen as the man he loves is washed away by the element that seems determined to take him to a watery grave, one way or another.

Summary
When Buck jumps off a bridge to save a little girl during a call he winds up with a month off work and a slew of people coming to the Diaz house to take care of him and force him to rest. He's not going to admit how nice it is.
He would also like to point out- for the record- that he technically jumped out of a bus. It just so happened to be hanging halfway off a bridge at the time.

Summary
Carlos was begging at this point. He felt weak, was so close to loading all of his composure and he didn’t know how. He was so afraid, and all he could focus on was the voice of the man assuring him that it was going to be alright, that they would call Izzie, and that he was going to make it.
And as much as Carlos wanted it to be, it wasn’t enough.
“Stay awake, kid. Just stay awake.”

Summary
Stiles is ten when he saves the Hales from their burning home and Derek from a wolfsbane bullet, and this establishes a pattern that seem to continue indefinitely.
"Then he's facing a burning home, and he wraps the hood of his sweatshirt around his mouth before he pushes the door open and steps inside. There's Mr. Hale asleep - he hopes asleep - on the couch, next to - Stiles thinks that's his brother but there are so many Hales, who can keep track. He rushes over and starts shaking him, can see the rise and fall of the man's chest so he knows he's alive, but he's not waking up.
He shoves away his hood so he can shout, "Mr. Hale! You have to get up, there's a fire! Mr. Hale, get up!" Nothing, he's not even twitching, both of them taking in deep even breaths like they're having the most peaceful of rests, and Stiles is going to cry. "Wake up, wake up, wake up!"
There's a moment, where all Stiles can hear is the blood rushing in his ears and not the roar of the flames or the creak of wood, then with a violent, silent pop it's all back and both of the men are gasping awake, eyes open and jumping to their feet. "Series

Rogue makes Logan watch a Disney movie. The result isn't quite what she expected.
Canon divergence following the end of X-Men (2000), in which Nightcrawler's attack on the President is delayed and Logan spends more time at the mansion after his return from Alkali Lake.
(This was originally posted as a standalone and can still be read as such—reading the sequel installments isn't required.)

Buck should have known better when he got up that morning. It had been raining for two days now and nothing good happened when it came to water and the 118. Especially when one of their own is caught in the middle of all this rain.

Summary
The van made a loud creaking sound, the ground underneath shifted ever so slightly, Buck lost his footing and when he looked back up, the van was gone.
The van with Eddie.
Buck feels like everything around him is moving through time at double speed but he’s stuck in slow motion, not able to move fast enough, react fast enough to grab Eddie, to save him, stuck watching the van (the van with Eddie) tumble down to its doom.

Summary
It starts with a headache.
It starts with a headache. And it ends as he falls to the ground, lock jawed, the world fading away.
. . .
Look.
Buck knows as well as anyone the dangers of repeated concussions. He was a college football player; he’s followed the development of the concussion stories as they’ve come out. And yeah, between his childhood recklessness (which has bled into adult recklessness), a few workplace incidents including a notable day with a hoarder house and a bowling ball, and his general affinity for being caught in unfortunate positions, he figures he’s had his fair share of concussions. But they’ve never really been in such close succession that he’s worried about them.
Not really.

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.

Summary
When Carlos cancels plans with his parents last-minute, claiming he is sick, it sparks a worry in Andrea that can only be quelled by seeing her boy. When they head over to his condo, armed with soup and enough parental love to nurse him back to health, they find a perfectly healthy, if not slightly guilty, Carlos Reyes. But that is not the only surprise they find.

Summary
After rehabbing his injuries and putting in a lot of work, Buck is ready to go back to the 118. He wants to go back to work, and be back with his family. But his return takes more work than he thought it would, and people aren't as happy to see him as he was expecting, which makes the return a lot harder to deal with than he thought it would be. As things pile on and his support system shrinks, Buck finds himself wondering if it's all worth it and what he should do.

Summary
“I’m in Abby’s house!” Buck whispers urgently to the phone and the busyness on the other side of the line stops. “And she’s here!”
Eddie doesn’t answer right away. Buck gets it, it’s fucking crazy. His brain hasn’t shut off since he woke up. Eddie deserves some time.
“And…?”
Out of all the things that Eddie could’ve said, that was the least likely in his head. He brings the phone away from his ear to make sure he called the right person because that is not how Eddie would react. Eddie hates Abby – Buck knows he hates Abby no matter how poorly he tries to hide it. Eddie’s never been particularly good at his hiding his disdain for Buck’s girlfriends, and now when Buck needs him to ratchet it up to eleven?
Nowhere to be found. Eddie has put Buck on a raft and pushed him out to sea.
“What do you mean, ‘and?’” Buck hisses in the phone. “That’s not enough life changing information for you?”
“Buck, why would it be life changing to be sleeping at the house you own with your wife?”
*
Or, Buck thinks too hard about couches, his past relationships, and the stupid alarm that just won’t shut up.
