hahahahaja wait, oh my god. buck went to eddieās apartment to escape all the attention he was getting and HE FELL ASLEEP ON THE COUCH!? like i knew about him falling asleep on the couch (spoilers are hard to avoid when youāre a curious bitch like me) but i didnāt realize the context, and now that i have contextā¦bro. buck is comfortable with eddie. peak best-friendism!!!!
Buckās coma episode had me in constant tears. He is SO important to the team. The love that the team has for him is SO important, because that is HIS FAMILY!! His real family! Buck + Bobby is one of my faaaaavorite father/son relationships ever.
I am upset at how easy Buckās parents got let out of their life-altering mistakes, by the way. I see what theyāre trying to do, but they literally birthed Buck to be spare parts, and then spent his entire childhood/life treating him as an afterthought. They donāt deserve a relationship with him. Forgiveness? Eh. Debatable. A relationship though? Abso-fucking-lutely not.
++ Christopherās little speech to Buck while he was in the coma was š„¹š„¹ AND Eddie being in tears? God. I wish weād seen more of Eddieās reaction to his death though. It felt weird that we werenāt seeing more of his best friendā¦and I just know it has something to do with Fox. I donāt have proof; but am I right? They didnāt want to play into Buddie so they just made Eddie as minimal as possible?
season 6 uncle buck isā¦very hot. buck is always hot, but he is extra hot when heās taking care of a child oh my god. him getting bested by Jee is SO cute hahaha
I put myself through the shooting again to see what I missed and here's what I came out with (IT'S A LOT):
Jesus Christ the way Eddie looks at Buck immediately
That shot of them just staring at each other before Eddie falls
The way Buck just stands there, completely frozen, doesn't even try to protect himself
HE ABSOLUTELY DOES REACH FOR HIM. HE REACHES FOR BUCK BEFORE HE PASSES OUT
Buck crawling to him and saying "Stay down, I'm gonna come, I got you."
"Hey just...just stay with me, okay?"
Eddie's first and only question is "are you hurt?" to Buck...brothers I am in shambles
Buck like actively cupping Eddie's face and saying "I need you to hang on."
The way Buck almost like collapses when a firefighter bumps into him...
Also INSANE that his first thought on seeing Taylor is "no comment" YIKES!!!
God Oliver Stark...I am in awe of you always
You can tell Buck is trying SO HARD to keep it together for Chris. Like he doesn't want to make things harder on him but it's like everything hits him all at once and he just can't keep it in because telling Chris makes it real. And makes him think that he should have been the one that got shot
"He's a fighter" while wiping away his tears...oh my love
Him breaking down is a relief cry, he drops his phone and just collapses in on himself out of relief
"It's gonna be okay, Buck." I just...love Chris and Buck so much. I love them so so much.
All the tubes sticking out of Eddie I'm sick to my stomach
And Buck takes such effortlessly good care of Christopher, of course Eddie would make him his guardian
"Buck snores...loud." Chris my king
"I'm fine. I'm not the one who got shot." Well it's clear you wish you were babe and that freaks me out!!
It's so interesting the way the rest of the crew doesn't even seem to...clock that Buck isn't just being reckless. Like he's actively trying to die. Daring the sniper to take him out
The fact that Taylor just leaves, playing into every insecurity he has but he doesn't even TRY to fight her leaving when he sees Ana calling...I have nothing to say to this it writes itself
"He doing okay?" "Better than me." BYE!!!
When Buck says it would have been better if he had gotten shot you can tell Eddie is like...stunned at what he said, but he IS recovering from a, oh that's right, major gunshot wound, so it's not like he can say anything about it.
Okay sorry the comparison between Buck telling Eddie "I'm here. I got you." and Athena telling Bobby THE SAME THING after he got shot???????
"Because Evan." I think it's the only time I've heard Eddie use his given name. It means something when he does. In this case "you aren't disposable you bonehead. Not to Chris. Not to me."
Genuinely insane experience. 10/10 would recommend
i just clenched my teeth super hard because i got CUTENESS AGGRESSION for chimney.
one of the last episodes of season 5, chim is sitting in the hospital (after the crazy jonah plot) and heās sipping a juiceboxā¦iām not even lying when i say that was the cutest thing i have ever seen in my entire life. doe eyes and sipping his juicy juice like a little kid - AAAAHHHH. i want to hug him so hard.
SEASON 5 BUDDIEā¦ you will always have my heart šššš
Buck found Charlie so he could help Eddie with his trauma?!? Are you KIDDING ME. Iām gonna throw up, that was literally the sweetest thing heās ever done. I started fully sobbing. Eddie has had a rough and traumatic season, but Buck has been there for him consistently and I just šš
many episodes into season 5 and i am dying at the lack of chimney and maddie this season. dying. why am i not getting more on them š their story is basically the only one iām interested in
a beautiful metaphor. i wasnāt here with yāall in the trenches a few years ago, but getting to see all of you celebrate something like this after so many years of being called delusional- itās a serotonin boost i didnāt realize i needed.
joining the fandom post-bisexual buck is a privilege that i am grateful for
itās like for years we have been watching this beautiful sunset. but people kept on telling us it was nighttime. that we were just imagining the huesā¦.but now oliver stark has shown up and taken us by the hand. āi see it, too,ā he is saying. āitās beautiful, isnāt it?ā
got my best friend to watch 911 too! iāve told her absolutely nothing about the show, so i am getting her reactions completely blind. very excited about that haha
the vibe change from season 4 to season 5 was intense. i canāt even pinpoint what exactly changed. it feels more depressing? or maybe itās something else. idk, i canāt put my finger on it.
bi buck could have been canon a couple YEARS ago??? "i see what everybody else sees. like, i watch the same show. i don't think the buddie fans are wrong". HELLO?????
When Eddie gets shot and Buck tries his hardest to deliver the news to Christopher gently only to be the one who breaks down and cries? Those were bi tears guys.
Iāve been trying to pinpoint why I love Buck so much, and I think Iāve got it figured out now.
I have a thing for complex characters- Iām sure most people do. Thereās something really appealing about learning a character with negative character traits has reasons and a backstory, and itās even more appealing when they have character growth.
Buck is a complex character. He has very real flaws and insecurities. He is also insanely strong and still manages to be good-humored and relatively optimistic despite all of the shit heās gone through. Buck is the kind of guy that feels deeply and loves hard, which sometimes gets him in trouble.
I donāt know, I justā¦I love Buck because he CARES so deeply about everyone around him. He loves his sister, he loves the 118, he loves Christopher.
Iāve been noticing in my watch that he has self destructive tendencies, and others always talk to him about it like he thinks heās invincible. I love that Eddie pointed out that it was because Buck thinks he is expendable. Itās hard seeing a character you love believe that he doesnāt deserve as much of the love that he gives. Iām also glad that his family makes sure to reassure him of the opposite (when needed).
Heās also just soā¦complicated. Heās so selfish sometimes, but there are other times when heās so selfless. Everything he does makes sense to me though, and itās because he is a hotter, way more traumatized male version of me š
anyway. His character growth is important to me. S1 Buck and S7 Buck are so vastly different and itās so š„¹ā¤ļø
I want to gently kiss Oliver Stark on the forehead because itās obvious to me how much he loves this character.
