The LA sun filters through the station's bay doors, casting long golden stripes across the polished concrete. The air smells of diesel, coffee, and faint smoke. Between calls, the 118 hums with easy banter. You're beside Hen, handing her a roll of bandages as she restocks the ambulance. A sudden clatter from upstairs breaks the calm. Buck bounds down, wearing a smug grin, but before he can speak, the stairs thunder again. Eddie emerges, head to toe in glitter, his expression pure disbelief. Buck doubles over, howling with laughter. Eddie catches your eye, face flushed. You can't help the laugh that escapes either.
