Summary
“You don’t eat bacon because tiger-brain thinks people are meat,” Wally says, just to make sure he’s on the right track.
“You say that like people aren’t made of meat.”
“It’s- we’re people,” Wally says, his mouth running without consulting his brain. “Isn’t that different?”
The look Gar gives him is half frustration and half pity.
“Wally, the biggest difference between pigs and people is opposable thumbs,” he says.
Wally has a couple brushes with cannibalism over the years. It's probably fine.

Summary
An canon-divergence AU where Bobby was the one locked out of the lab during the 08x14-08x15 arc, and Buck takes his place in sacrifing himself for Chim.
Work 1 is the 118 working through grief in the immediate aftermath of losing Buck. Work 2 is alternate ending to it, where Buck ends up being found alive the day of his funeral. The first one can be read alone, but if you want a happy ending the sequel is there for you.- Words:

Summary
“Oh my God,” Buck says as cold, certain clarity seeps through him. “I know why I’m upset.”
He can barely bring himself to open his eyes. When he finally manages to find the courage, he sees Ravi looking at him with eager anticipation.
“Yes?” Ravi prompts, leaning forward. He waves a hand encouragingly at Buck. “Go on?”
“I think,” Buck says slowly, “I’m in love with Hen.”
Or: Buck wildly misinterprets his jealousy over Hen and Eddie being partners.

Summary
Adriana doesn’t tell their parents that she’s going to LA. She doesn’t tell Eddie, either—or ask, for that matter.
She does ask Chris, and he thinks it’s a good idea—says as much, on the phone, and doesn’t say much else.
“Buck will probably be hovering,” is what Chris does volunteer.
It still surprises her when the man who opens the door is not Eddie. It’s—Captain America, is the thing that actually comes to mind—a man close to a foot taller than she is, if not more than that, with blond curls and broad shoulders, and he’s got a question in his very blue eyes that’s probably less friendly than the one he actually asks her.
“Uh,” he says. “Can I help you?”
—
Or: Adriana arrives in LA. Maddie has been here the whole time.

Genuinely don’t even know how to describe this as anything other than an actual piece of art. The “when is a [blank] not a [blank]” passages took me out at the knees each time. Absolutely beautiful.
