Summary
“I am… I suppose surprised… that you’d want to draw attention to, well…”
She glances around but it’s slow, lull between the morning rush and the lunch hour. “Roy and Jamie?” Trent hums and absolutely does not lean in, drawn by the sheer magnetic power of the gossip at last, no sir. “They can control themselves for a couple hours,” she promises with a staggering confidence, considering how relentless they are online.
“I have to say, I was… not expecting that relationship to,” he searches for the diplomatic word, because he knows Keeley is still friends with them both and implode sounds rather harsh, “develop in quite the fashion it did, and so quickly.”
But she just settles in, finishes her latte, unfussed. “Looking back I guess I’m not all that surprised.”

"Oh," Jamie laughs. "Well, it’s November, innit?"
He says that like it’s supposed to explain why he looks completely fucking ridiculous.
Roy blinks at him.
"Mate," Jamie continues, exasperated. "Y’know, the moustache thing? Movember? It’s for, like, mental health."
"Whose fucking mental health?" Roy replies. "Because the thought of watching you try to grow a moustache sounds absolutely fucking terrible for mine."

Summary
"Hey, sorry about that, I was just—Eddie?”
Eddie’s head shot up at the sight of Buck, frozen halfway towards his seat. “Buck?”
Buck let out an awkward chuckle and glanced around. “There must be a mix-up, I’ll go ask—”
“No!” Eddie practically yelled the word, and then he winced at the desperation in his own voice. Belatedly, he realized it was possible that people who were interested in men were supposed to be sitting there. But Buck was watching him with wide eyes, still paused leaning on his chair, so Eddie added, “I could use a six-minute break. You know, from finding out how many siblings every woman in this bar has.”
Buck’s eyes glinted in the dim bar lighting. He finally took the seat and asked, “oh, so you don’t care about how many siblings I have?”
——
Eddie and Buck finally go on a date. It just takes them three times to realize it.

Summary
Buck was going to kill him.
That was Eddie’s first thought when his brain processed the fact that he’d walked their kid right into the middle of a fucking bank heist.
------
Or: Eddie vs. not picking a fight with three armed bank robbers; Buck vs. not intervening in an active hostage situation. Challenge level: impossible.

Summary
“You are going, Roy!” Ruth had demanded through the phone, “This bullshit with you and dad has gone on long enough. I want to see you both sit down and share a meal. Together.”
“I don’t see the fucking point! He doesn’t want me there and I don’t want to go!”
“Yeah, because the last time you were there, you stabbed the roast chicken right up the arse with your fork and told Dad you wished it was him.”
“I still do.”
This Christmas, Roy isn't getting out of dinner with his insufferable parents. Thankfully, Jamie comes up with a brilliant idea during their morning training.
