Summary
It’s something about the way Eddie phrases it. Something about the combination of his words and the way he’s staring down at the floor, and the flush in his cheeks and the way he’s fidgeting. Buck thinks, abruptly, he’s going to ask me on a date.
“Well I - wanted to tell you first, and I need someone to watch Chris, anyways - I know he’s getting old enough now he doesn’t like feeling like he’s got a babysitter, so I was hoping - sorry. Not the point. Uh. I have a date on Saturday.”
Just as abruptly as his own hopes had come soaring up above the cloud cover of his own unawareness - they go crashing back down to the floor - to the basement, and into the mud. “A date?” Buck rasps out.
or - the one where eddie decides to start dating again, buck figures out his own feelings just a minute too late, and then he spends a week going through the five stages of grief

Summary
“I'm gay.”
He's looking at his feet, because he hasn't quite come to terms with the fact that he's saying this in a room where other people, strangers, can hear it.
But this is still the first time he's said it this way: out loud, in a declarative sentence. Being nervous is fine. Frank said that being nervous is fine, and Buck just said he's proud, and the only thought Eddie has in his head is that it's embarrassing he can't raise his head and say it like a man, so clearly, he's going to need to hang on to other people's words for the time being, someone who isn't his dad trying to explain the ways Eddie's allowed to inhabit the world.
He doesn't need to ask anyone's permission to be who he is. That's also a thing Frank said.
in which eddie attends a self-empowerment group for gbtq men to supplement his therapy, and is empowered to: forgive himself, say "i'm gay" to his own reflection in the mirror, accidentally adopt an adult, make fried rice, and tell his straight best friend that he's in love with him. not necessarily in that order.

Summary
“I wasn’t kidding,” Buck insists. “I’m coming back tomorrow, and we’re going to do your damn taxes. I don’t care how much you complain or how hard you struggle. We will at least get through the income section, mark my words.”
Eddie sighs. “This is going to be a weeklong saga, isn’t it?”
“Maybe,” Buck says with an infuriatingly smug smile. “I guess we’ll have to wait and see.”
[Future fic. Contains major spoilers for 5x13.]

Summary
Things Eddie Brock flirts with on a regular basis: death, insanity, his ex, his ex’s new boyfriend, and also the alien symbiote that lives inside his body. Not bad for a loser with no game, really.

Summary
"I'm just saying. You haven't shut up about wanting to fuck a stranger since you left Myra,” Bev says. “He's a stranger who is down to fuck. What are you twiddling your thumbs for?"
Eddie sighs. He chews on a bit of soggy bell pepper and considers it. Finally he says, "I just worry it'll be bad."
Bev laughs. "Sex with strangers often is."
"Oh, great! That's just what I wanted to hear!"
"C'mon, Eddie," she says. "What's the worst that could happen?"
OR:
Eddie and Richie try to have a one-night stand and get snowed in together.

“I think I’m going to get into birding,” Sid said.
Zhenya was sitting on his balcony with his laptop on the side table, eating a burger and watching seagulls squabble on the riprap. “What’s birding,” he said absently, as one gull lifted its wings overhead, raised its rear end, and took a stringy white shit.

Summary
George doesn’t tell him until they’re in F2. Until the slow, weird dance they’ve been doing around each other has reached a point where it’s got to come out anyway because they’re young men and they’re going to do this.
Lando, predictably unpredictable, does not react any of the ways he expects - straightforward and dramatic in different directions, like a bursting water balloon.
(complete now, in all three parts)

Summary
When Daniel retires and Valtteri loses his seat to grid politics, the two ex-drivers bury their lost championship dreams and distract themselves with a summer-long road trip to Mongolia. Rather than erasing history, new roads force them to confront the rivalry they've held since they were teenagers—a connection Daniel clings to, and which Valtteri has ignored for just as long.
From Western Europe to the Balkans, across Central Asia and the steppes of Mongolia, it takes an 80s Lada and ten thousand miles of highways, border crossings, breakdowns, and recovery for the two drivers to meet in the middle.

Lando chews his lip for a minute. “On the podium.”
“What?” Max sounds excited, more than worried or confused.
“When we get a podium together. We’ll probably end up being stupid anyway, might as well.”
