New idea: Hen or Chim challenge Buck and Eddie to a game of gay chicken.
Buck: Great! now what
Chim: well you keep going now
Eddie: how do we win?
Hen: whoever doesn't chicken out wins
Chim: You know honour, you just sees who can go the longest without blushing or backing off because it's too much for them.
Buck: isn't this a bit yk counterintuitive? I'm bi, Eddie's the straight one here isn't this unfair?
Chim: it's the fun of the game, you two aren't attracted to eachother
Ravi*quietly*: supposedly
Eddie: It could be fun Buck, I remember some of the guys playing this back in the barracks during down time, some cracked some didn't. How hard can it be?
Buck: But you're straight
Eddie: yeah and? I think I can handle being close with my bestfriend, we've saved eachother's lives before, dragged through the firing line all that we could beat Hen and Chim anyway.
Hen: beat who and who?
*Chim laughs hysterically*
Hen: oh boys, this is gay chicken, not straight chicken, I'm not having any part of this and we're both married
Buck: then Ravi-
Ravi: Ravi will be on washing duty, no thank you
Chim: cheer up guys it's for fun. Tell you what-
Hen: We'll give $20 to whoever wins, sounds like a deal?
Buck: ....
Eddie: seems a little low
Hen: that's all I'm giving
Eddie: Chim?
Chim: sigh.... I'll throw in a gift card to that new restaurant on 23rd
Eddie: Deal.
Buck: hmm
Eddie: Cmon buck, there's free food and cash, and I know you wanna try their new lemon pasta Primavera, they use zucchini to make their noodles, you can even meet the chef
Buck: I don't know Eddie
Eddie: it'll be fun! It's not like we haven't been close before, this'll be easy. Besides it's us.
Buck: yeah...it's us. Fine I'll do it.
Chim: any more convincing and I'd have to pull out the Jee and Robbie combo
Ravi: Buck's already losing in my books
Buck: we haven't even started yet
Ravi shrugs
Ravi: doesn't matter to me, seemed a bit suspicious.
Eddie: well Buck you're on
*Eddie places a kiss on buck's hand as a shiver runs down buck's spine*
Buck: I- got it you too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hen: I give them a week
Chim: 3 days
Ravi: I don't know I give them 2 shifts before they realize it's no longer a game.
(Small dialogue fic I was just gonna spit an idea out but this went longer than expected 😬 anyway
Hen and Chim get bored and tired of Buddie's antics.
Buck and Eddie get challenged to play gay chicken during their downtime on shift
Ravi manages the tally chart and betting pool, he's on team Eddie wins)
