“Never took you for a boob man, bro,” he laughed. Eddie rolled his eyes. Just yours . 

“Don’t call me bro,” said Eddie instead, sucking one of Buck’s nipples into his mouth. That shut him up right quick. After making sure to pay attention to the other side, Eddie continued his way down, pressing open mouth kisses all down Buck’s abdominal muscles until he arrived at the waistband of his jeans. Buck was lying flat on his back, propped up on a pillow, staring down at Eddie with an expression he wanted to see every day for the rest of his life. Eddie gulped, this was unknown territory for him. His heart hammered in his chest as he looked up at Buck with wide eyes. 

“I–I’ve never–” he started. Buck reached a hand down to stroke his hair. “That’s okay, Eddie, you don’t have to. If you’re not ready.” 

“No, that’s not what I meant,” Eddie shook his head. “I’m ready. I just don’t know if I’ll be any good.” 

Or, Buck and Eddie's Ducking Crazy press tour comes to an end.

Chapter 4/7

“Eddie, look at this,” Buck said, amused.

He flipped his phone screen around to show Eddie a page full of Duckley merch on Etsy. There were rubber ducks, painted to look like them (“Oh my god, dude, we need those”). Stickers, decals, magnets, shirts…you name it, their faces were on it. Capitalism at its best; or worst, depending on how you viewed it. Eddie thought it was pretty funny, actually. He made a mental note to buy Buck and Eddie ducks for them, later. He opened Tiktok, and didn’t even have to scroll down before a video of the cast of Hotshots loaded at the top. They were doing the dance.

For fuck’s sake , he thought, shaking his head. This was ridiculous. And he kinda loved it.

Hey. Mutuals. Babes. Please. Go! Read and comment and encourage this amazing fic! I love that it could have just been silly crack with this concept, but it has so much depth and heart (and amazing characterization). It's so much better than I even hoped when I was getting hyped on the premise during the storyboarding phase!

“For fuck’s sake.” Buck covered his face in his hands. “Duck’s sake,” Eddie muttered under his breath, looking up to shoot a glance at Buck. Buck cracked a brilliant smile, laughing out loud and breaking the tension. “Duck you, man. As the ‘uckley’ part of Duckley, I have a majority rule here. And I say that we know what our relationship really is. And we’re the only ones whose opinions matter on any of it. The rest of this is just…I dunno, hype.” “Wouldn’t be Duckley without the…without the D,” Eddie finished with a grimace. Oh god, that made it even worse. Fuck his entire life. He looked over at Chim and Maddie, whose faces told him everything he didn’t want, or need to know. “Without the D, huh?” said Maddie. “Eddie… serious question, but do you hear yourself?”

The show cut to footage from that morning. Eddie remembered most of it, but what surprised him was, well, the way they looked answering April’s questions. “Is this how we look all the time?” he muttered to Buck. “Yes!” groaned Chris. “It is. Everyone talks about it behind your back. Aunt Maddie is the worst.” “Are you serious?” Buck said incredulously. “But we’re… we’re friends? Doing friend things?” “Yeah, totally normal friend things like gently cradling each other’s faces and cuddling.” Chris rolled his eyes. This was nothing new. “It’s not weird. For you guys. It is weird, for normal people.” “Hey, man, we’re normal,” Buck griped. “Sure,” said Chris, placating. “People keep saying that,” Eddie whispered.

Shouting my love for @kelbottumbles from the rooftops. Couldn't do it without you keeping me focused!

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.

Run don't walk to read this fic and please give @dana-duchovny some love in the comments bc she is working so hard and this fic is legit so good!!!

“You saved me,” Buck whispered, full of awe.  “Of course I did,” Eddie scoffed. As he spoke, one of his tears dripped down onto Buck’s cheek. Eddie wiped it away with his thumb as they stared into each others’ eyes, neither willing to look away. I love you, Eddie thought. It didn’t scare him as much as he thought it would.   “And the famous dog,” Buck rasped. Huh?

I am so excited to finally share my new project. While it is technically a WIP, the writing is COMPLETED, and it is on a posting schedule. The plan is to post one chapter/day over the next week so it plays out in real time!

Thank you so much to @kelbottumbles for everything. This one's for you ❤.
