Summary
"The 118, the home base for the Nash Crime Family, is an old, blown-out fire station, in a part of Los Angeles not often visited by more reputable types. The windows are boarded up and blacked out and the garage doors attached to the bay are firmly affixed by chains and padlocks to iron rings embedded into the cement floor.
They call it the 118 because that's the number on the outside of the building. Inside too, if you know where to look.
Sometimes, Buck thinks about the firefighters who used to work here. Maybe they were a family too."
Or: the 9-1-1 Mafia!AU

Summary
He stands up, because Eddie does not cower from knocks at — he checks his phone — 10:52 PM, even though every true crime podcast his abuela forwards him suggests this is exactly how people end up as a Dateline episode.
He looks through the peephole.
He blinks.
He looks again.
There is a man on his porch. Which, fine, he expected a man. What he did not expect is for the man to be — and Eddie needs a second here, because he’s processing several things simultaneously and doing a poor job with all of them — approximately six foot two, broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, visibly muscular in a way that suggests either a dedicated gym routine or a genetic lottery win or both, and completely, entirely, spectacularly naked.
Except for the potted succulent he's holding in front of his crotch.
Eddie's succulent. From Eddie's porch. The one Chris named Potricia.
Or,
The odds of the universe dropping a naked man on your doorstep are low, but never zero.Bookmarked by Purple_penguin_0

Summary
“Have you seen me and Hen get sick at the same time in our fifteen years of close friendship working at the 118?” Chimney asked, looking between Buck and Eddie seriously.
Buck’s mouth opened and closed a few times like a fish, his mind blanking on when an event like that occurred in their several years working together. Eddie stared at him helplessly, throwing Buck into the deep end to answer for them, making him grimace.
Scrunching his face together in deep thought, Buck replied more like a question with, “Yes?”
“No!” Chimney barked. Everyone in the circle jumped with fright.
“Weak immune systems?” Eddie tried again, wincing slightly.
“Just get in the truck,” Chimney ordered with immense defeat.
Or; Buck and Eddie are secretly dating, but they both catch a cold at the same time, raising suspicions at work.
