"They're strangers to us."
"Yes," Ramon says. "I suppose they are."

Summary
"Look, it's not a big deal," Ravi says. "It's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Chimney's eyes dance with barely restrained glee. "Don't listen to him," he says. "It is a big deal, and you should be embarrassed."
"Well I'm not embarrassed," snaps Buck, heat coloring his cheeks. "It was nothing, you know? People say stupid things in high adrenaline situations. It doesn't have to mean anything."
"So you're … not in love with Eddie?"
Eddie falls off a cliff, and it knocks a few truths loose.

Summary
"It's not about … not wanting a relationship."
"Oh." Something about the way Eddie said it, hushed and hesitant, felt dangerous. A precipice loomed before them, and Eddie danced on tiptoe towards it. Buck wasn't sure what they'd find over the ledge, but he knew he'd hurl himself over, if only Eddie asked. "No?"
In the privacy of the desert, miles away from anything they know, Eddie opens up to Buck.

Summary
Essek Thelyss dies.
Years later, Caleb continues to see him — in the study, in the bedroom, beneath the apple trees. For some time, he’s convinced these are nothing more than hallucinations. Wouldn’t be his first. But hallucinations don’t scare the cats. Hallucinations don’t leave scars on his chest. And the more twisted this visage of Essek becomes, the clearer it is that he needs Caleb’s help, now more than ever.

Summary
Essek tore his gaze away from those red eyes, seeking desperately something safer, softer. He was among friends. Cognouza was seconds ago and a timeline away. It hadn't happened — it wouldn't happen.
He settled on Jester, who beamed.
"Hi," she said, kindly, "I'm Jester. I like your weasel."
**
In another timeline, the Mighty Nein fall to Lucien. Essek, with Artagan-the-weasel's help, travels back in time to save them.

Summary
Without waiting for a reaction or reply, the man bore down on the gas and peeled down the highway, leaving Buck stranded in the middle of nowhere somewhere along Interstate 10.
And as Buck watched the red brake lights of his Jeep disappear into the distance, clutching his prescription of blood thinners tightly to his chest... there was really only one thing left to do. Tilting his head back until he was staring at the stars, he took a deep breath and screamed into the night:
“Fuck!”
And much like every other one of his recent cries for help, it had gone unanswered.

Buck gets carjacked, held at gunpoint, and stranded in Arizona the day before his first shift post-lawsuit. And that's only the beginning of his troubles.

Summary
“How did you get home from the hospital?”
“Took an uber.”
“Does Maddie know?” Silence. “Does anyone?” More silence. More of Buck refusing to meet his gaze, staring at the door like he thought he could entice Eddie to leave by the power of suggestion. Well, good fucking luck, Eddie thought. Wild horses, and all that. “Why didn’t you call anyone?” he demanded. “Why didn’t you call me?”
“I did!” Buck snarled. The momentum of his indignation carried him into a sitting position, and Eddie could see him flinch with the pain of it. His unnaturally stoic front was gone, and something raw and wrenching took its place; it occurred to Eddie that he’d never heard Buck raise his voice before. “I did call you, Eddie! As I was bleeding out on my kitchen floor. You. Didn’t. Answer.”

The squatter in Buck's attic has a knife. Buck has a bit of a breakdown. Eddie has a plan to make everything right.

Summary
The doctor tilts her head to the only source of warmth in the cold, hospital room. “And who’s he?”
Buck’s eyes drift to Eddie, hungry for the sight of him. They fall upon the tense line of Eddie’s shoulders, the firm press of otherwise plump lips, watching like the very air in his lungs depend on Buck’s answer.
“That’s Eddie,” Buck answers, and the smile sneaks up on him. “Eddie Diaz. My partner.”
There. Relief washes through Eddie in a visible wave: his shoulders drop, features relaxing with the soft push of an exhale. Buck warms at the sight. Right answer.

A polysemy is a word with multiple, related meanings. The word partner, for example, can mean close friendship, a teammate, a co-parent. To someone else, it can also mean a lover.Bookmarked by sunflowerbuckleys (flashhwing)

Summary
There's a clear plastic container on the kitchen table. Eddie sets the bag down warily on the counter, approaches it warily, as if it's a live grenade. Which is prescient, he realizes a moment later.
It is, as the message suggested, a cake. A small one, sized so that a person could eat it in a single sitting if they were feeling greedy and indulgent. Chocolate layers, topped with a silky-looking ganache; Buck even sprinkled little curls of white chocolate around the edges for decoration. Lettering piped in bright red frosting, uneven but perfectly legible, reads, DON'T IGNORE ME, I SUCKED YOUR DICK.
