“Are those… hearing aids?” He registers Eddie's voice through the ringing in his ears.
It takes him a moment before he can finally whisper it out. He feels his head nod against his will.
“Yeah.”
The door gives out.
or: how a conversation about tardigrades results in buck grappling with a disability he's suppressed, getting hearing aids, and realizing that the family he craves has been there for him all along. in that order.

Summary
In the middle of watching Eddie awkwardly date his teacher girlfriend, Buck is abruptly cut out of their lives in an attempt to help Chris and Ana bond. Feeling more alone than ever, he grasps the welcoming hands that enfold him into their family. A mother he'd never had, a father he'd always wanted.
Like his favorite instrument, his life was like a piano. Sometimes out of tune but with love and care, it can sound beautiful.
