Summary
“I have a rainbow one! And a blue and green one! And a pink, purple, and blue one! And a blue and pink one! And this one is pink and orange! And - -”
“That’s a lot of flags, Spider-Man,” Eddie chuckles.
“Yep! I got them all. I have so many. Buck only has one. Which one do you have?”
“I don’t have a flag,” Eddie says. "I'm not sure which one belongs to me right now."
Or, Theo collects all the flags at Pride. Eddie tries to find one that fits.

Summary
“Huh, you know, I never thought about it like that,” Eddie says, out of the blue.
Buck glances up from his plate, “About what?” he asks.
“It actually makes sense— Us being together, I mean,” Eddie explains, casually, gesturing with his hands.
Buck almost chokes, “What?”
(Or, everyone in New México calls Eddie gay, assuming he’s with Buck. He thinks they might be onto something…)

Summary
Two hours later, Buck is out of coloring books and stickers, and Theo has not stopped using him as a runway for the robot toy to launch off. There are toys strewn across the living room and the kitchen, and now Theo is climbing on Buck like he’s a jungle gym. The toddler squeals with delight, one arm draped over Buck’s shoulder as he plasters himself to the man’s back, toy whooshing through his curls and into the air.
“Theo, why don’t we sit down and watch a movie?” Buck offers, watching the toy as it sails through the air and falls to the floor just in front of the TV.
“I wanna play,” Theo insists, wrapping his arms around Buck’s neck and squeezing.
“Theo, buddy, that’s too tight,” Buck gets out, gently—but firmly—prying the boy’s arms apart so he’s no longer being choked by a four-year-old. “Gentle hands, okay?”
“What’re gentle hands?”
or, buck tries to placate theo with a movie. things don't go as planned. eddie comes to the rescue.

Summary
"Hey, you made it."
Buck turns toward the voice, already saying "sorry, he's got a lot of energy, he's—" and then he gets a look at the swim instructor, and the rest of the sentence walks off a cliff.
Because the swim instructor is shirtless.
Obviously he's shirtless, he's a swim instructor, that's the dress code, Buck understands this intellectually. What Buck did not account for is that the swim instructor would look like that — like someone took every good idea the human body has ever had and put them all in one place and then made him relaxed about it on top of everything, loose, smiling at Buck like Buck isn't a sweating disaster clutching a four-year-old by the swim shirt.
"I'm Eddie," the swim instructor says, and sticks out a hand.
"Buck," Buck says, eventually. He shakes the hand. The hand is tan, and big, and — no. He's not doing this. There's a child present. Several children.
"And this must be Theo."
Or,
Buck falls for Theo's swim instructor, literally.Bookmarked by bbangnyu

Summary
“You shouldn’t be here, either. He’s an asshole, he’s not even—”
“Why do you care?" Buck interrupts him, raising his tone, “It’s not like I’m gonna marry him!”
“I sure hope not!” Eddie replies loudly, offended, then, thinks to himself, you’re gonna marry me.
(Or, Buck decides to date again. Unsurprisingly, Eddie crashes out and sort of steals someone’s identity in the process. It goes better than expected… Truly.)
