    Summary

    After a sudden shift in weather turns a wilderness rescue test into a real emergency, Katsuki and Izuku take on a rainstorm, a mountain, and their own worse natures to make it out alive.

    ---

    Katsuki let out another unsteady breath, but it was a laugh rather than a sob. “You’re a piece of shit.”

    “A piece of shit that you carried down a mountain!” Izuku shot back cheerfully.

    Summary

    “So you,” Eddie raises an eyebrow, “are going to take this monstrosity home?”

    “No,” says Buck. “This guy—” and he bounces the thing in his arms like it's a baby, its limbs flailing, “is for you.”

    “For—” Eddie blinks. “Buck.”

    “I mean, I hope you'll let me visit him,” Buck says, his smile faltering for a breath, which Eddie only spots because he's already looking, “but I won him for you.” 

    in which there is a frog, and a fair, and an eddie who allows himself to accept what he deserves.

    Summary

    “Buck's here,” he says. Hen and Chim raise their eyebrows in perfect coordination. “Have to make sure he doesn't get himself into trouble.”

    “He's been getting himself into trouble since 1992,” Chimney says, pulling out his phone, probably to make fun of Eddie in his and Maddie's text thread. “And I'm pretty sure he's right at home in a bar.”

    The unfortunate thing is, Eddie really can't argue with that. It's easy to see Buck, somehow, even through the throngs of people crowding around tables and flagging down the lone bartender for drinks: one elbow on the bartop, head tilted, leaning down with half-lidded eyes as he says something to the short blonde he's been talking to.

    in which eddie, very literally, has a brush with buck 1.0.

    Summary

    “Hey,“ someone says, and it takes Eddie a deep breath and a few blinks to remember that there's a person there. Slowly, he peels his eyes away from where Buck disappeared and lays them on this man Buck apparently picked for him.

    Chase is—big. Only a little taller than Eddie, but much broader in the shoulders, and he's smiling under a full, dark beard. Eddie can't quite tell what color his eyes are for the muted, red-tinted light, but there's no mistaking the way they drag over him head to toe, slow, deliberate.

    in which eddie has a beer, dances with a stranger, and does some borderline indecent things in the street with the love of his life.

    Summary

    Today, he wakes up with Eddie half on top of him, head resting on Buck’s chest, his thigh thrown over Buck’s, holding him close with his fingers fitting into the spaces between Buck’s ribs. It feels forbidden to dip his chin just so, enough to hide his face in Eddie’s hair, to breathe him in.

    All of it feels forbidden, but Buck does it anyway. He keeps doing it, keeps taking, because the measures are relaxing and Eddie misses Christopher and all of this is so painfully temporary. He keeps taking for as long as he’s allowed, and they don’t talk about it, ever, just roll out from under the covers.

    in which love is finally allowed to exist in the light of day.
