    Summary

    Bobby was as ready as he could be when his eyes finally slipped closed.

    His prayers were said, his energy depleted, and the time had finally come.

    And then he was being air-lifted out of the icy-cold ocean with the debris of a crashed passenger jet strewn below him.

    Or, the one where Bobby somehow wakes up in the middle of Season 1’s plane disaster after ‘dying’ in the lab.

    Summary

    A set of canon compliant texting fics. They can each stand alone and be read separately if preferred - the first is fluffier and showcases Buck and Bobby's relationship from pre-canon to the lightning strike, the second part picks up immediately after this and goes through Season 7 and part of Season 8 (to 8x13). The final part is set in the aftermath of 8x15 and focuses on Buck's grief.

    Summary

    [Sent 12:03] Buck, is there something you want to tell me?

    [Sent 12:11] I’ve just spent 5 minutes staring at my phone trying to think of something and I can’t think of anything?

    [Sent 12:13] I was referring to your tour of Harbor on Monday. I thought we agreed that you would come to me if you were ever thinking about transferring?

    -

    From going back to work after the lightning strike through various traumas, disappearing cruise ships, identity discoveries, injuries, cartels, bees, and all the way to forgetting your friend’s birthday, it’s the story of Buck and Bobby navigating the ups and downs of life between season 6b and 8a, as told by text messages (including some unsent messages and an occasional cameo from some other characters).

    (Note: this story can standalone or be read as part of the wider series)

    Summary

    "Barry, I spent so long in the umbrastaff screaming and crying for help, for anyone to listen, that I eventually gave up. And now…I'm so scared to say anything. It's like I can't convince myself anyone will listen. And you're so hurt by it all. I hurt you by leaving. I'm so sorry; I never meant to stay gone for so long."

    Summary

    Nicole wakes up the next morning with her head going thud thud thud

    It's going thud thud thud and there's light coming from…. somewhere, and she's definitely not in her bed because wherever she is is not nearly as comfy as her bed, and her hand is hanging over the edge of wherever she is and brushing against the floor and….ugh.

    Thud thud thud goes her head.

    She needs water. She needs water, and then she needs some Advil and then some Gatorade and then she needs to sleep for hours and hours until she feels like a functioning human being again.

     

    (Nicole Gosling recovers after the Victoire parade, and reckons with all her girl kissing)
