And when Buck is covered in Eddie’s blood in that elevator and Eddie has gone limp in his arms and the wound isn’t bleeding so much anymore because it’s already all over the floor and soaked into Buck’s hands and dried against his skin and his clothes and then Eddie’s eyes flutter open just enough and he looks at Buck like he’s trying to memorize him and somehow still manages to whisper “you look like hell” and Buck breaks completely and wipes the tears off Eddie’s cheeks with shaking hands and doesn’t bother wiping his own when he chokes out “you should see the other guy” WHAT THEN????
