    Summary

    There's a lot of jokes about how the crew at the 118 is cursed. Buck always needs to bite his tongue when people laugh, not knowing how close they are to the truth.

    The 118 was cursed. After a lot of work, Bobby Nash cleansed the station. But he never checked up on the guys who had already left.

    or

    Tommy Kinard has been cursed for seven years.

    Buck notices.

    Summary

    Tommy has a very large house. He knew it didn’t make sense: he was a single man, no family to speak of, living in an expensive city… But he’d gotten it cheap because it needed a lot of work (in fairness, so did he) and maybe, just maybe, one day he would be able to fill that stupidly big house with the family he’d been craving for so many years.

    And then he gets pulled back into the 118 and meets Evan Buckley, who has a very extensive (found) family but is still searching for the elusive puzzle piece that will make him truly feel like he’s found his place.

    Together, they build their home.

    -

    Or, the one where Tommy and Buck help each other find what they’ve been looking for: home.

    Summary

    “Well,” Thomas chuckles, a beautiful sound if Buck has ever heard one. He wants to hear that sound again. “I tell people that it dislocated when I was stopping a helicopter from falling off a building, you know, like Captain America.” Thomas flexes his muscles then, showing off his thick arms, which Buck has the strangest urge to bite. “But I actually just lost a game of tug of war with my dog.”

    That startles a laugh out of Buck’s mouth, and he turns to see Thomas grinning at him. Buck feels almost trapped under his gaze. Thomas is staring at him in a way he can’t decipher, his nose scrunching up in a way that has Buck’s heart beating at a perfectly normal pace (if normal is trying to win an olympic sprint).

    “What about you?” Thomas asks, tilting his head slightly and gesturing towards his leg.

    Buck thinks about telling him the truth. Saying he’s the firefighter that half the population saw getting crushed by a firetruck. But for right now, he doesn’t want to be seen as that guy. So instead, he simply says, “Crush injury.”

    (Or Buck and Tommy meet at Physio after the truck bombing and grow closer and closer)
