    Summary

    Buck’s imagined finding his soulmate what must be thousands of times. Imagined the curve of their delighted smile, the warmth of their embrace. Usually, in his mind, they were a woman. As he grew older and knew himself better, he allowed himself to sometimes picture a man. Sometimes, before the truck bombing, he’d wished it would be Eddie himself.

    But always, always, they wanted him.

    The reality of the situation is a far cry from his daydreams: Buck, sitting on the cold tile, quietly weeping as he realizes that the person he’s been waiting for, the person he was made for, doesn’t want him after all.

    -

    In a world where soulmates share scars, Buck has a few epiphanies after the shooting. One: Eddie is his soulmate. Two: Eddie has known this since the ladder truck, and hasn't said a word. Cue angst.

    Summary

    "That is. Okay. Where do I start." Pushing off the counter — hands need to be free for this. "Number one. That is not how being secure in your sexuality works. Number two. That is the opposite of how it works. Number three. Most straight men who are secure in their sexuality do not, as a method of confirming this, seek out gay sex. That is— Eddie, that is gay. The thing you are describing is gay. The act of doing it is gay. There is no version of this where you end up more straight at the other end."

    Eddie scoffs. "You don't know that."

    "I do know that."

    "You don't."

    "Eddie, I am bi. I have personally conducted this experiment. The results are in."

    Or,
    Eddie asks Buck to fuck him to prove he's straight. Things go about as well as you'd think.

    Summary

    It’s a disaster. There’s nothing for Eddie to do now but rip the Bandaid off.

    “I’vebeenlookingatyourGooglehistory,” he says, all at once.

    Buck blinks. “You’ve been what?”

    “I’ve been—” Eddie breaks off with a huff, and then forces his eyes back up to Buck’s. “I went to the Google home page,” he starts again. “To search the thing about the coupling nut. But then when I clicked on the search bar, the recent history was not mine, because—”

    A look of comprehension has begun to dawn on Buck’s face, suddenly.

    “Because I was logged in on the iPad,” he says slowly.

    - in other words: the slow-moving catastrophe of buck and eddie sharing a search history.

    Summary

    "You look so good underneath me, baby," Kon grunts as he thrusts particularly hard. "Like you should just stay there, forever."

    And for a split second, when Tim's looking deep into his eyes, he can pretend that everything is how it should be. That the look in Kon's eyes is love, that he's consciously calling Tim those sweet pet names, that he isn't going to leave after this.

    He can't look away.

    OR: Tim and Kon have a lot of casual sex. Like, a lot. Which would be great, except Tim wants more. And Kon doesn't. (Or does he?)

    Summary

    “What was hers?” Jason asks finally. Bruce looks up at him, fiddling with the flashdrive in his hand, and back at the empty doorway. “Her favorite?”

    “I can't recall.”
