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.

Summary
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.
