EDDIE: *clicks pen* BUCK: *clicks pen in response* CHIMNEY: Stop that. EDDIE: Stop what? CHIMNEY: You’re talking about me in Morse code! BUCK: Yes, that’s what we were doing. In our very limited time, we took a class on a very outdated, very unnecessary form of communication just so we could talk about you in front of you. Congrats, you figured us out! *later* EDDIE, to HEN: That’s actually exactly what we were doing.

one thing about the 118 is that even when bobby is gone they are going to pull up to his house one by one and trauma dump their life updates on him

Buck: So, what is Tommy's type?

Hen: Blue eyes, kind, oblivious, great sense of humor, animal lover.

Buck: Sounds kinda like me. Too bad we're just friends.

Hen: *deadpan* Did I mention oblivious?

Buck: Yeah, why?

Hen: Just making sure.

What if the mustache is the beginning of a long troll on Gerrard?

Like, one day, Gerrard goes off on some tangent about manliness and mustaches and Tom Selleck and I don't know, everyone stopped listening pretty much from the beginning, but even the white noise of it was annoying.

And Buck and Eddie are hanging out that night, commiserating over drinks over how shitty work is lately because of the Gerrard of it all (and Buck's also on Eddie duty that night since they're all trying to help him through the absence of Chris.) They're a few drinks in because Tommy's going to pick them up and neither of them has to worry about driving.

"He doesn't OWN mustaches," Eddie declares at some point.

"No," Buck agrees emphatically. "No, he does NOT."

"I'm taking 'em back," Eddie says, half to himself, half to Buck.

Few days later, he has a full-fledged mustache.

Gerrard knows enough about the 118 by now to not take this at face value. Diaz wouldn't be copying him like this as a compliment. It makes Gerrard's eye twitch.

It makes Eddie smile. More than he has since Chris left.

Soon after that, Buck shows up with a 'stache.

Then Chim. And Ravi.

Gerrard is scouring the books for a reason to write them up over this and/or force them all to shave.

Soon, every person capable of growing a mustache at the 118 has one and it continues to spread...

Bobby comes to visit. He's got a beautiful mustache going on. Nice and full.

Tommy gets on board.

The day they get word that Gerrard's getting the boot, Hen shows up with a big-ass grin and a fake-ass mustache.

And the next 118 bar-b-que involves a celebratory shaving party as they say good-bye to the ass-iest mustache of them all.

"He doesn't know that you're an idiot. Once he gets to know you and know that you're an idiot, he'll love you, like we all do."

Really shitty edit based on this post I just saw: https://www.tumblr.com/letmetellyouaboutmyfeels/762278959878651904

But what if the firefam is eating dinner while Hen entertains them by reading Taylor’s book.

Page 6 :: “I never should’ve dated Evan Buckley. It was obvious from day one that he was desperately in love with his best friend and partner, firefighter Eddie Diaz.”

That slow turn to stare at Buck…

Buck: i’m like a firefighter, I find them hot and oh do I leave them wet

Eddie: * speechless*

Chim: buck what the fu-

EDDIE: My life is a little too much panic and not enough disco. BUCK: My life is a little too much fall and not enough boy. HEN: My life is a little too much chemical and not enough romance. CHIMNEY: My life is a little too much imagination and not nearly enough dragons.

Can we talk about get some fic about this?

I can not belive nobody made a snarky comment, they were thinking them!

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie. Chapter 22 of Right Where You Left Me is up!

Lord. The past two months have been something. I've had a lot of life stuff happen, including a death in the family and a funeral for said death. Still I think grief and mental illness are uniquely complex yet universal experiences, and things that should be normalised. Life goes on and we have to take it one day at a time.

On a more positive note, we've reached the long awaited POV shift, and as you can probably guess, this is Eddie's time in the limelight. Chapter 22 is a 170-page document on Google Docs and is roughly 56k. It's absurd. Truly unhinged when I think of the start of this story.

Moreover, to me it's an exercise in endurance, a character study, too, because we've stayed in Buck's head all this time, and Eddie's perspective is challenging, refreshingly new, and overall an interesting place to be. Given how isolated Buck has been in his declining mental health, delving into Eddie's world means we get to spend more time with the other members of the 118 too.

I hope you enjoy this chapter, and as always I dearly appreciate your engagement. Writing is a solitary endeavour and receiving your support, your encouragement truly keeps me going. It means more than I can say.

Also happy season 7 premiere! 🚒🍿

With the generous BTS and PR material from ABC, I think we'll have a lot to look forward to each week. 🥂🧀

Happy reading and take care. 💜
