After getting a little glimpse over drunk and hungover Eddie at the end of 7x05, I had a need for something with party boy/frat boy Eddie. So I have this college AU where Buck is more the academic and Eddie is the partier. Buck goes by Evan, Eddie keeps calling him Buck. They have the same major, Eddie's trying to be friends with Buck/flirt with him. Stands him up for a date because he has to watch Christopher. Buck thinks he's lying. These are just thoughts for the story, haven't gotten to them yet. Anyway...
Here's a small bit of it:
“Sociology again? Didn't you take that last semester?”
“That was Intro. You know there’s more than one sociology class, right?”
Eddie reaches over, snatching the piece of paper from Evan. “Yeah, right.” He says, studying the list. “Hey, we’re in the same groups in everything but sociology.” He looks over to Evan and grins. “Now we have to be study partners.”
“We really don’t.”
“Awe, come on. We made a good team in Public Services, right? Both got A’s, and you know it’s probably your fault I have to take Intro to Sociology again since you weren’t there to help me. But now with you in the next class you’re basically a pro!”
“How did you manage to fail sociology? It’s basically all just... life views and different perspectives.”
Eddie shrugs. “I might have missed a couple classes.”
“A couple?”
“Okay most of them. But it was an 8am Monday lecture, who’s actually making it?”
“So you were too hungover to make it, is what you’re saying. Public Services was an 8am Monday, class and you made that just fine most of the time.”
Eddie reaches down, slipping the paper back into Evan’s open bag. “Well, I had good motivation to come to that class.” He says with a wink.
Evan feels his face heat up and he quickly turns away. “You’re an idiot.” He grumbles, shifting in his seat as the professor walks in.

Not sharing anything new today because I want an excuse to show this off commissioned by the amazingly talented @bucksketch thank you so much it’s beautiful ❤️
Lost Without You 28k 5/5 completed A fairy tale about a cursed prince and the man who tries to save him ❤️💔❤️
This bit comes right after the picture.
Buck runs a finger over the the two bands he can see on his arm, he really thinks these marks on his skin are the answer, that he now has a way to break the curse.
A contented sigh slips from his lips as he lies in the bed he just spent the night in with Eddie. A future with Eddie and Chris actually seems possible. All he needs to do is explain things to Maddie and his parents and they'll be happy for him, he’s sure of it.
With uncharacteristically optimistic thoughts about his future running through his head he drags himself up and is almost dressed when he hears the raised voices.
That doesn’t seem right and frowning slightly he quickly buttons up his shirt, pulls on his boots and goes to investigate.
The sight that greets him as he opens the door freezes his heart.
It takes him a moment to fully process what he sees, but it’s real, there are actually Palace Guards in the street and they have a man surrounded. The man is on his knees, head bowed and hands behind his head.
To his horror the man is Eddie.

[or a buddie summer sons (canonverse) au where buck and eddie get caught up in something bigger than themselves and awaken a power that haunts them for the rest of their lives]
for @spaceprincessem
Haunts usually only appear after being dead for a while. It’s not immediate. So it’s rare for him to see them like this. It’s even rarer for him to see one when Eddie is with him, like somehow the ghosts know to stay away when they are together.
Five years and this girl is only the third haunt he has witnessed when Eddie is nearby.
Five years and this girl is the first they talk about.
“She’s trying to talk,” Buck finishes for Eddie, hesitantly and oh so carefully, afraid of spooking Eddie, afraid of spooking himself, afraid of spooking the girl trying so hard to tell them something.
Eddie looks her over the way he does a patient, clinical and concerned, trying to find what will help him diagnose and care for those who are hurting.
A faint wisp of pride tumbles around in Buck’s chest.
A stronger gust of love hooks into his ribs.
“They don’t do that,” Eddie says after a moment.
“No.”

Buck slid into Eddie’s bed, his limbs loose and warm from alcohol and the feeling of home. He stifled a yawn as he curled up under the blankets, watching Eddie with bleary eyes. Eddie was quiet as he turned off the light and slid under the covers, settling on his side so he was facing Buck.
“Are you sure you want to talk tomorrow?” Buck asked, his voice so quiet it was practically a whisper.
“Yeah, I think so,” Eddie murmured back. “I want to hear it when you’re sober.”
“Makes sense,” Buck got out before interrupting himself with a yawn. “I might be hungover, though. I can’t drink like I used to.”
“I’ll wait however long you need me to, Buck,” Eddie said softly, but Buck was already asleep. Eddie grinned, awash with love for his best friend, his partner in everything. “Goodnight, Buck.”
And with that, Eddie let his eyes flutter shut and fell asleep, happily curled up beside the love of his life.
Buddie AU where Buck is a star baseball player for the 1957 Brooklyn Dodgers but in 1958 his team moves out to Los Angeles to become the LA Dodgers. The new home team is all the rage, but there’s one man not as starstruck on Buck like the rest of the city. In an effort to change his opinion, Buck invites Los Angeles Times newspaper journalist Eddie Diaz to the next stretch of home games for an in-depth look at America’s favorite pastime and what evolves into a friendship soon becomes something more. But when someone cracks the code of Eddie’s secret love notes left for LA’s beloved Shortstop in his published columns they have to decide if their love is worth fighting for.
