expose

day 48 of @118dailydrabble word: expose, day 1 of @911-rarepair-week prompt: Beginnings and Endings | Ship: Lucy/Taylor | rating: T, beginnings

At the bar, Taylor scrolls through her story notes as she sips a Malbec.

It's her job to expose the truth, and she loves it.

And maybe that's why she's alone.

"You mind if I sit here?" asks a familiar woman with a short blonde bob, mischievous brown eyes and—kissable lips.

The beginning of the end of things with Buck—Lucy Donato.

Taylor pastes on a smile.

"Go ahead."

Lucy sits and grabs the drink menu.

"Wait—I know you! You're that reporter who—"

"Yep."

Lucy's eyes widen.

"Who was dating Buck—"

"Yep."

"Well, this is awkward."

"Yep."

"Well, shit—" Lucy smirks. "Make it up to you with a drink?"

She abandons caution, draining her glass.

"Sure."

ain't no way i'm gonna screw up now that i know what's at stake here for @saltommyweek2024 round two

He refuses to let his history, no matter how recent, ruin something good– Sal isn’t Evan, and this, this is Tommy’s future, isn’t it? This is the rest of his life, if it goes as he wants it to. Dinner dates and carpooling and, god, Sal’s hand on Tommy’s thigh, warm and soft and grounding the way it was the whole drive here.

Or the one where Sal and Tommy finally get their first date after all these years, but it doesn’t quite go to plan.

T | sal deluca/tommy kinard | 2.6k day two - getting hit on, marked up

[nine-one-wanton]

Title: Unappreciated

Pairing: Sal/Athena; (Background: Athena/Michael)

Summary: Athena and Sal are both going through it. They find themselves wallowing in personal and professional frustrations, respectively - and decide to be each others momentary bright spot.

(Athena is still in a sexless marriage with Michael; Sal has *just* been suspended, and transferred.)

Note 1: Listen.

I can’t begin to explain the how and the why of this. I do not ship it. There was a little game of “cursed pairings”, there was a wheel of characters. Mine landed on Sal and Tommy. Which is actually blessed and not cursed. So I re-spun Tommy, and here we are.

They say the day before Thanksgiving is the biggest drinking day of the year. So, idk.. maybe drink until you can enjoy it 😝

Note 2: Again, I don’t ship it. But I do actually like what I did with it 💜 Hopefully there is something to like for you too if you take a chance on it!

[whatwouldeddiedo]

For 911 I was wondering who your favorite rare pair is? And also I hope you’re doing OK today 💞

oh man this is rough!!! bc i like lots of little pairings that i think would be considered rarepairs. i’d say eddiejosh but i think that’s getting a bit bigger. i also like buckjosh or buckalbert. eddietommy without buck is probably a rarepair right?????? there’s so many good ones bc i just ship buck and eddie around with sooooo many people. it’s really hard to pick a favorite. i am so bad at choosing things.

i’m doing….well i’m trying to be okay, anon. my partner earlier told me im not allowed to let donald trump take me away from her so im trying to let that run through my head over and over again and override the intense suicidal thoughts. im trying to think about my silly little guys and my episode of 911 coming on tomorrow and seeing my favorite podcast live.

thinking about my friends and the people i love on 911blr and just trying to remember all the good things this world has to offer so that the hopelessness and fear doesn’t win. i hope you’re doing well today. 🩵

[jdorian]

i know that the 911 online fandom has always been based in a singular ship and that a lot of people clearly aren't dealing with the change very well, but i gotta say, for me, personally, it's actually refreshing to see the fandom landscape change and having more ships butting up their heads and sparking conversations and inspiring fans to create new things, thus strengthening the sense of community... i just think it's neat.

Josh was sitting in the dispatch kitchen sipping a coffee when his phone vibrated — almost too perfect timing to be anything but planned. Gently placing his mug back down, careful not spill, he glances at his now lit up phone screen.

Sal 🔥

When's your lunch break?

He finds himself smiling at even the sight of his boyfriend's name, at the reminder that he absolutely memorised when his coffee break was. So that he'd see his message immediately, give him a little pick me up when he got a moment alone. It does make him wonder, however, if Sal really wants to know when his lunch break is. Or is this just a segue into another conversation?

Unlocking his phone, and quickly flicking to his messaging app, Josh quickly taps out a reply.

Josh 💙

2pm. Why?

He's barely had time to have another sip of his coffee before he gets a reply. He'd think Sal had his reply ready and waiting if he hadn't seen the typing bubble pop up.

Sal 🔥

I'm bringing you lunch from that bougie cafe you like.

Sal 🔥

I'll meet you up there.

Josh finds himself smiling at his boyfriend coordinating a surprise lunch. He'd been bitching before about not having time to pack a proper lunch today, about how he was supposed to being doing the whole eating healthy thing, but he guessed he'd just go the takeout place near the office instead. Turns out Sal wasn't just listening to him bitch, he was paying attention.

Josh 💙

And you're not even going to ask? What if I said no?

He's not going to say no. He finally has a boyfriend, a good man, who wants to suprise him with lunch and respect his work schedule at the same time. But Sal gets it. a fellow first responder. He gets the crazy hours, the irregular break times, the way they don't always end up being the reality. Pulled away into another call.

Even if it doesn't end up happening, he appreciates it either way. Sal wanting to steal away a moment of time with him, caring and brusque in equal manner.

Sal 🔥

Because you're not gonna say no?

Sal 🔥

I'll see you at 2 😘

Rolling his eyes, Josh shakes his head as he takes another sip of his coffee. He hates how cocky Sal is except he really doesn't. This confidence with the skill and the knowledge behind it really does it for him. A hunky firefighter who gets the job, supports him, wants to spend time with him — and is so confident that Josh feels the same. It's reciprocated in a way a lot of his other relationships haven't been.

Instead of why are your shifts so inconvenient, this is why we can never have lunch together it's now surprising him with lunch at the dispatch centre. And he's a fire captain too — Sal is — so Josh doesn't even have to worry about security, about getting him into the building. They're a lot stricter about that now.

It's nice, letting Sal into this part of his world so seamlessly, where they can have lunch and he can watch as his boyfriend tries and succeeds at charming his friends and coworkers.

Quickly firing off a heart emoji back to Sal, Josh finishes up his coffee and heads back to his desk. Break over entirely far too quickly. And he doesn't even have to worry about cutting their conversation off abruptly, Sal gets it. In fact, Josh's been on the other side of it now — in the middle of a call with Sal on a day their shifts don't align, the alarm bells ringing and cutting the call short.

2pm can't come soon enough.

Eventually, finally, he's halfway through a call when he spots Sal out of the corner of his eye, Standing near the glass at the entrance to the main floor, in a well fitted army green jacket, work boots, and tough blue jeans with his hip cocked. Coffee tray in one hand and paper bag in the other — no doubt containing that lunch he promised.

Josh smiles, grin creeping across his face as he continues to talk to the caller on the other end of the line. A teenage boy, not in moral danger, but still very scared about it. He tells him it's going to be okay, that the firefighters are on their way, and he sees Sal's eyes twinkle at his words.

Sal locks eyes with him and kisses the air, directed straight at Josh. He rolls his eyes in return, waving him off towards the lunchroom as the teenager on the phone line starts to calm down as he hears the sirens approaching in the distance. His boyfriend laughs, and heads towards the lunchroom.

He tries to shake it off, ignore his blushing cheeks and fluttering heart. Focus on his call, be professional, make sure his caller is safe until help arrives. Thankfully — for both him and his caller — they quickly arrive and get the kid to safety. He can wrap up the call, put himself on break, and finally, finally, head to the lunchroom where his thoughtful, hunky bastard of a boyfriend is waiting.

"What took you so long?" Sal jokes, brows furrowed as he watches Josh enter the room. Following his boyfriend with his eyes, hand gestured out to the side as if to say what gives? But Josh can see that he's laid their food out on the table in from of them. A coffee each, a burger and fries for Sal, and a fancy pasta salad for Josh.

Josh just rolls his eyes, and leans in to kiss his boyfriend, Sal meeting him halfway.

for @hellion-child 😘

pack up and leave everything, don't you see what i could bring? for @911-rarepair-week

“I crashed my bike, but I’m fine.” Evan waves a hand; he tips his head out toward the sidewalk jerkily, swallowing slowly. His footsteps crunch on the gravel of the driveway, and his expression is lit by the dim shine of the party lights glowing out the front windows, eyes gleaming with blues and reds and pinks. “I gotta talk to you about something.” Or the one where Tim Rosewater and Evan Buckley are more than best friends, they’re intertwined; but Evan has to leave, and Tim can’t follow.

[bisexualbrainrots]

suddenly thinking about chim and tommy, circa 2012, in a new years eve party at their usual bar. both are so drunk and moping about not having anyone to kiss.

they step outside the bar to have a cig and when the countdown starts tommy keeps looking at chim and goes "fuck it" and they kiss. it doesn't damage their friendship, instead, it becomes a fond memory for both of them (it helps they didn't remember anything from that night until like a week later).

[imakatperson22]

I ship Riaz (Josh/Eddie) in the sense that I will read every single fic on ao3 under their tag. All 18 of them. I’ve seen an edit or two of them. I’d love to start seeing fanart!

I am still rooting for buddie canon but they’re cute to imagine together because they are imaginary.

I’d really love to see more unusual pairings get content in this fandom Hannikar! Lucy/Taylor!Fuck it! Bobby/Michael! Like, just for funsies. Cause fandom is supposed to be fun!

[jacki-daytona]

911 rarepair week has truly spawned the best ideas from you all - can we do this again next month?

Tag me in your rarepair stuff! Xoxo

You'll Be Okay

Okay, this is a little bit of a late entry for @rarepairs-of-911's event last week for the prompt "Beginnings/Endings" since it's a different meeting fic and based on @buffaluff's magnificent art which you can find here on tumblr and here on AO3. Enjoy this light angst with a happy ending, tooth-rotting fluff, hurt/comfort emergency Teddie fic! 🥰

You'll Be Okay

| Pairing: EddieTommy | Rated: T | WC: 5.8K |

Summary: Tommy Kinard is tasked to fly an air ambulance to help hikers who were caught in a mudslide with the help of probie Eddie Diaz.

Excerpt:

“Tommy, right?” Tommy turned to. To see. A man. Well. Another firefighter, of course. Tan skin. Thick, soft-looking straight hair gelled out of his eyes. Eyes like – like Velvet Queen sunflowers. A kind smile. A strong build. Handsome. The man was handsome. “Tommy Kinard, right?” said the man, “The ‘badass firefighter pilot’?” Tommy snorted. Because. Melton definitely was the one that pointed this man Tommy’s way if he was calling Tommy a badass firefighter pilot. “Asking for a particular reason?” inquired Tommy as he tried to stay on task. “I’m Edmundo Diaz. Eddie for short,” said the man as he extended a hand to Tommy, “I’m the paramedic assigned to you. Well. Not really a paramedic. I was a medic in the army and that was good enough to send me. So, you got me. But trust me, I’m a great medic.” Tommy. Shook the man’s hand.
