You're killing me with chemistry by harmonic-intervention (BackseatSerenade)

Summary
Buck knows he's bi. He knows what he wants. And what he wants, right now, is Tommy. Maybe his hand in marriage, because he's getting desperate. Because, despite all of his attempts, and all of the positive responses from Tommy, for some reason, Tommy just ... doesn't act on anything.
Tommy knows Evan is straight. He asked both Howie and Hen about it, and he trusts their word on it. It doesn't stop Evan from pulling him in, and making him fall head over heels for him anyway. Tommy knows better than to fall for a straight guy, he does, but ... he can't change it.
Everything would be easier if they just talked to each other, but where's the fun in that?
- (canon divergent 7x04 and onwards, Buck already knows he's bi and Tommy thinks he's straight.)

Summary
In the end, it wasn't anyone from the 118 who pulled Buck out of his depression-fueled haze. Not Maddie. Not Athena or May or Harry. Not Tommy, or even Buck himself.
It was fucking Sal DeLuca.

My eyes just as wide as my mouth can be by harmonic-intervention (BackseatSerenade)

Summary
Buck did it - he saved Bobby and Chimney from the super virus. In the middle of it all, his senses came online, showing him as a Sentinel.
Only as a newly booted up grade five Sentinel, things aren't exactly easy on him. He'll need a Guide and learn how to deal with his new senses without zoning every second of the day. If only he didn't feel calmer around Tommy than any Guide he'd met. And on top of it all, his place at the 118 seems to be falling apart as well.
Things could be easy, but they weren't. For now at least. Who knew what could happen?

Summary
The music was too loud to have a meaningful conversation, but they tried. Tommy handed him another drink. Buck was too focused on not getting jostled and spilling the overpriced alcohol all over the both of them, so he missed the context, when Tommy said, ”Puppy?”
A bit of a non sequitur, but Buck didn't think anything of it. He had been called a golden retriever before, so he laughed and said, ”I mean, yeah.”
Tommy's whole face crinkled in a smile. ”Yeah, you are.”

Summary
After learning the truth about why he was born, Buck makes the most deliberate choice of his life: he applies to Asterbridge House, a private matchmaking service he’s been saving for since he was eighteen, because more than anything, he wants a spouse, children, and a home that lasts.
He does not expect to be matched with Tommy Kinard.
Tommy is older, steadier, richer, and far better at seeing through Buck than Buck is ready for. He listens carefully, kisses gently, and makes room for Buck exactly as he is, which would be easier to enjoy if Buck’s family didn’t think he was making a mistake. It would be easier still if Maddie wasn’t trying to fix his life for him, or if wanting something for himself didn’t feel so much like betraying everyone else’s expectations.
Somewhere between first dates, family betrayals, crossed lines, and one very bad fire, Buck has to figure out whether he can stop asking permission to want the life he actually wants — and whether Tommy might be a place to land.
