    Summary

    After losing Bobby, Buck’s just trying to hold it together, but between grief, growing tension at the 118, and the silence settling into once-solid friendships, he’s not sure where he fits anymore. As he questions where he belongs, Buck starts to find quiet support in unexpected places…and a second chance at love he never thought he’d get.

    Summary

    No, he doesn't mind all of that. He doesn't mind anything right now. Not when he has his hands wrist deep in the dirt in the slightly-shaded side yard, feeling around for leftover roots from the tree of heaven that he'd pulled out an hour ago: cut it down with a handsaw, forgoing the poison that reddit suggested because he didn't want Jee touching it accidentally, then splitting the trunk down with a hatchet so he could remove it piece by piece. Not when he's carefully avoiding the bulbs, the irises and the daffodils, because it's the wrong time of year to disturb them. Not when nobody's looking at him so nobody can see that his eyes are leaking a little bit, because—well, it's LA; they probably need the moisture, even if it is a little salty. No, he doesn't mind at all.

    Buck digs around a little. Tommy invites him to leave.
