As it was holiday time and Eddie had managed to get a few consecutive days off, he took Christopher to visit his sister Sophia in Austin. They enjoyed the time there a lot, ignoring the news, as they were mostly outside. That was until Sophias neighbor started barricading the house and asking about what they were planning to keep safe. That was when Eddie found out about the hurricane coming. Sophia immediately wanted Eddie to take Christopher home to LA, but Eddie decided otherwise. He got Sophia and Christopher tickets to LA, so they would be out of danger. He called Bobby to ask for him to stay, wait out the hurricane and help out. A few calls by Bobby later saw Eddie entering station 126 in Austin.

settling into life in LA was a change. ryden had been relieved to find out that at least he knew one of the men on his new team- buck was a bit of an idiot, but he was a hard worker and a good kid. ryden remembered him from BUD/s. he hadn’t made it because he was as allergic to directions as marjan was... but he was a fucking brilliant firefighter. it made him miss home, though. austin, the 126. he didn’t know how to reconcile cap sending him away, and it made him... uncomfortably emotional. maybe that was why as he lay there on the porch of his new house... he unconsciously sought out the group thread from the old house. he smiled, re-reading conversations that felt like they were from years ago. he paused, then clicked the top, opening contacts and hovered his finger over tk strand’s number. then went for it, pulling up his thread with his friend and taking a breath before typing.
