Why this must be read: Over the holidays there was a Yuletide-style gifting on Mag7Daybook and charlottechill turned out to be my secret Santa. Basically I asked for love and family and fuzzy warmth and she gave all of that and more. There is established C/B, there is a lovely Ezra/Vin pairing just blooming, the Buck and Vin friendship is especially nice, and all the guys being together as a family, acting like a family, was fabulous. Of course, the running curiosity about whether V/E is a go or not is wonderful, too.
But he had long ago learned not to meddle in the affairs of his friends... okay, not that long ago, and maybe he still meddled when he really wanted to because he liked to see people happy. But Ezra and Vin were grown men and work partners, so he'd been trying to keep his nose out of their business. Still, they were similar in age and temperament, and Buck saw all the ways they were alike, and plenty of ways that their differences complemented each other. He'd seen all of Ezra's prickliness and all of Vin's patience, and he'd seen the way Vin looked at Ezra sometimes, when he thought they were alone.
When everybody'd thought Ezra was straight.
Ezra had made damned sure everyone thought that, playing that undercover role as well as he played any other. When Ezra had finally decided he trusted them enough, or that he wanted Vin enough, to give up that game just last summer, Vin--whooee! He'd been pissed for about five minutes, but he'd had an interest there for far too long, and anger had faded to strategy so fast, it still made Buck smile to think on it.
