Summary
When the firefighter walks into Eddie's coffeeshop, Eddie immediately knows two things about him: he's not human, and he's the love of Eddie's life.
Oh, he knows a bunch of other things too, obviously. He's about thirty, a few months younger than Eddie himself. He has a scar on his throat, like he got stabbed there, and one of his legs has some metal rods in it that must have come from a bad injury. The guy doesn't know he's not human, which is a tricky thing to figure out, but Eddie's almost positive. Most of the non-humans he knows have always known they aren't people, but there are exceptions, and they tend to carry themselves differently. Ana before her first full moon as a werewolf had a very different vibe from Ana after.
The firefighter moves like he knows he doesn't belong, but not like he knows why. Like he's afraid of taking up space, afraid of being noticed.
As if Eddie is even capable of not noticing him.

Summary
“Alright, Buckley. Tell me about yourself.” Diaz has just the slightest twang in his accent, something southern and warm and Evan wants to listen to this guy talk all day forever, maybe. “You’ve been with us a week, but none of us even know your first name.”
“Uh, Evan.” Evan’s on a cot, an IV with fluids stuck in his arm, while he cradles the bag he’s been yaking into in the other. “I’m from Hershey, Pennsylvania. I’ve got an older sister named Maddie, she’s a nurse and the coolest person I know. My favourite colour is pink.”
Or, Evan Buckley enlists in the army fresh out of high school and falls in love with his best friend. Things spiral from there. From the prompt “Secretly Married”

Summary
Eddie’s life had gone to shit in roughly every possible way.
He felt about two seconds away from breaking every hour of every day, like someone had stepped up in front of him, shoved him down, smashed the life he’d been working on, and left him to rebuild from the ground up.
And so, really, the last thing he needed when he got home at the end of a long shift was to find a massive, weird-ass dog curled up on his front porch. And yet, there it was.

Summary
Eddie thinks, as he munches on a fry, that he’s angry. He’s angry that Buck was ever wronged, that Buck even felt he had to give him that look. He’s angry that he can’t just fix it, that he’s not good at fixing things but he’s really good at messing things up. He’s angry because he’s afraid of failing when Buck needs him.
He’s angry at Buck because he’s not here, and he’s angry because it’s easier than grief, because Eddie thinks this might be a type of grief. Because he misses Buck when he’s right there, because Eddie thinks this might be another thing like all the other things he needs to deal with, the things he pushes down so deep because just letting them sit around is enough to hurt.

Summary
The corner of Buck’s mouth quirks. “Thanks for picking up my call,” he whispers.
Eddie feels a sudden pang in his chest at these words. He gives in to the urge to reach out and brush his fingers over Buck’s forehead, just gently enough that he could deny doing it if he really had to.
“I’ll always pick up,” he whispers back.

Summary
“Oh Buck,” Eddie sighs, almost-silently. “What are we going to do with you?”
‘Keep me,’ Buck thinks desperately, even as coherency struggles past his grip. ‘Please, don’t let me ruin this. Just keep me right here, with you.’

“Well, that was heartwarming,” Chimney says loudly. “Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s go save some lives. In WeHo. Where Buck goes to gay bars because he is apparently a bisexual now.”
“I’ve always been a bisexual,” Buck sniffs. “You just didn’t notice.”
“There are gay bars outside of WeHo,” Hen adds. “Just saying.”

Summary
Not what Eddie was expecting turned out to be the understatement of the millenia.
From Bobby’s reaction to finding out that Buck was working out when he knew there was a new alpha in the firehouse, he suspected the guy was out to prove a point. What he was not expecting was the 6’2 , muscular dirty blond with a physique to rival any alpha’s, bench pressing more than Eddie could on most days.
Eddie’s mouth dropped open, and he couldn’t help scenting the air to catch the slightest whiff of omega wafting through the room. His instincts struggled to reconcile the sight of the absolute tank of a man in front of him and that sweet alluring tang in the air.
“Buck, what have I told you about scent blockers in the gym?” Bobby said sternly.
“Uh, that it’s not my fault I sweat through them when I’m having a good workout?”
OR
Buck hates alpha men. Eddie isn't attracted to omegas. Neither things matter because Buck and Eddie belong together, even if it takes a near death experience to work it all out.Series

Summary
He completely pulls the charger from the wall as he fumbles to put in his passcode. He doesn’t know who to call first. Everyone is busy, carrying on with their lives and Buck is stuck here in the loft with the terrifying ghost of his childhood like an omen. Out of the corner of his eye he catches the Crooked Smiled Man now standing in the dark entrance way to his bathroom. He swallows around the taste of blood in his mouth, hands shaking, useless as his list of contacts blur beneath the burn of tears.
Eddie Eddie Eddie
He doesn’t know where the feeling comes from, but it’s sudden and sharp and excruciating. Eddie is the first name at the top of his list, his most recent calls and texts, and he doesn’t hesitate to hit the call button.

“I love you, you know.”
Buck smiles, and it’s Eddie’s favorite - the one that seems to light him up from within, beautiful and too bright to look at directly for long.
“Of course I know that, Eddie,” Buck replies, easy as breathing, but Eddie shakes his head.

Summary
Buck doesn’t think that if he were to say, “I’m in a bad place”, that anyone would turn him away. Really, he doesn’t. The 118 has too many good, kind people for that.
But every time he wants to open his mouth, to say something, to reach out to Eddie or Bobby or Hen or Chim, he hears Eddie yelling, “you’re exhausting.”
—you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting, you’re exhausting—
So each day he does his job and he laughs and he jokes and he pretends he’s the care-free goofball he’s always been. And each day he packs away his bruises and his worries, takes them home to his empty loft with its quiet rooms, and licks his wounds in silence.

Then, the snake-lemur made a small chirping noise. Shen Yuan tightened his robes, hoping the swaddling would lure the creature back to sleep.
But the other boy noticed again.
“What is that?” he hissed quietly.
“What’s what?” Shen Yuan whispered back
The boy’s eyes narrowed. He spared a quick glance to the front, as if to confirm none of the peak lords noticed them speaking. Shen Yuan wanted to roll his eyes at the thought. Half of them weren’t even paying attention to their sect leader talk about the importance of strategic alliances, let alone watching out for disciples misbehaving.

Summary
Shen Yuan doesn't have good luck with women and dating. To help him get better at figuring out how to flirt and please a woman, he hires a professional dom in a half-thought-out attempt to pick up some tips. As their sessions progress, he finds himself tied up tighter and tighter under Luo Binghe's control, as well as literal ropes.
Trusting and naive, Shen Yuan lets Luo Binghe 'coach' him, and lets his defenses relax. Through their sessions, Shen Yuan begins slipping into subspace, and Luo Binghe becomes bolder with his intentions. All he has to do is ease into it all, and not spook Shen Yuan away while also being as forward as possible.
It should be easy, right?

Summary
“Tell me who you are.”
He almost said Peerless Cucumber but the words brought a tingle to his throat. That was his stupid online handle, not an identity Shen Qingqiu claimed for himself, but why would that be an issue? Yet, he couldn’t physically say it. Instead, his lips formed around the truth. “Shen…”
FUCK! Shen Qingqiu still couldn’t move but his mouth had mostly free reign. He bit his tongue hard enough to draw blood to stop the Qingqiu from coming out.
What the fuck. How was it that he almost confessed to his identity as Luo Binghe’s deceased scum shizun right in his face?!
or: the mushroom body's DNA is accidentally spliced with a wife-plot plant. Shen Qingqiu has to deal with this and try to survive being Luo Binghe's guest at Huan Hua Palace.

Summary
After the destruction of Vulcan, many members of the endangered species are left without bondmates. To prevent any further unnecessary deaths, a program is set up to match volunteers with Vulcans entering pon farr alone.
It’s a simple contract: complete a mental compatibility exam, and when a Vulcan enters pon farr with a high enough compatibility score, you drop everything to spend a night on New Vulcan, then go your separate ways. There are definitely no weird ancient bonds in play that can get you accidentally-Vulcan-married to that person.

In Shen Qingqiu’s defense, the cursed box looked exactly like every other box. How was he supposed to identify it as the one that would turn any man who opened it into a child? Far away from home on a mission, and unwilling to deal with his martial siblings making comments, he decides instead to enlist the help of Gongyi Xiao from the nearby Huan Hua Palace. Unfortunately, he wasn’t quite expecting to run into Huan Hua Palace’s ‘guest’ first.
