    Summary

    Buck steps closer, takes the knife from Eddie’s hand, the movement careful and gentle, and sets it aside. “Hey,” he tilts his head into Eddie’s line of sight. “What’s going on?”

    “You know that thing that’s been going around, about the sun?”

    “The dimming thing? Eddie, that’s–”

    “It’s not,” he cuts him off right away. “The sun is losing output, we have data. And not gradually, not in a way that gives us centuries – we’re talking a decade. Two, tops.”

    Buck leans his hip against the counter beside him, crosses his arms over his chest. “…okay.”

    “There’s a team that’s been on it and they think they have a lead on a solution. They need someone to go out there and retrieve whatever the thing is and bring it back.”

    “Why are you telling me this?”

    Eddie doesn’t have to look, but he does anyway. He owes Buck that much.

    “It’s going to be a three person crew. A scientist, an engineer, and someone to fly the ship.”

    The silence sits around Eddie’s neck, drawing tighter with every second that passes.

    He can see the moment the words land.

    “And that someone is you.”

    Or,
    a loose project Hail Mary AU.

    Summary

    "Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”

    Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”

    Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”

    “No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”

    Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”

    ——

    Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.

    Summary

    “I have to go to a wedding,” he says, voice tight. Eddie’s eyebrows scrunch in confusion. That’s it?

    “You love weddings.”

    “Not this one. It’s in Pennsylvania. With my mom and dad. For a whole week,” he says, frustration evident in his tone.

    Well that makes a lot more sense. Buck at home for a whole week? Brutal.

    “Maddie, Chim and Jee are going, right?” Eddie asks.

    Buck nods jerkily. “Mmhm. They are. I-It’s just that my parents are expecting me to bring someone and when I don’t, because who the fuck would I ask to suffer for a week for me, they’re going to make comments about how I am going to be alone forever and it-it’s just already on my nerves and I still have nearly three weeks before I even have to go,” he rushes out, abandoning his coffee on the table as he paces back and forth in the kitchen.

    “I’ll come with you,” Eddie offers. He blinks – he hadn’t exactly thought that one through, but he doesn’t regret it, doesn’t want to take it back. Buck freezes where he’s at, body still as a statue as his head whips to look at Eddie.
