the way Buck tried to bite Eddie's head off when they first met vs. the way he tried to kill Tommy with his mind is pretty damning evidence that when Buck has a crush on a boy he doesn't know what to do so he just. tries to fight him

I have burning Buck and Eddie questions,
I mean, I've come to terms with the bad storytelling, the repeated patterns and unfinished, at least in a satisfying way, thoughts displayed on the screen for the entire characters. (Hen's medical adventure, the friction that was between Buck and Chimney, Athena's dad, Bobby and Athena's honey moon (you can't tell me that that frame out of nowhere in the end of the episode said anything, it looked like it slipped in accidentally in editing.) and so many other things that will take me at least two posts to cover.)
But back to my Buck and Eddie questions,
Why?
Why have that couch flirting convo in the beginning of the season?
Why this entire domestic vibe? The fully baked lasagna after three tries? - It was perfect and it was ready and it smelled great.
In parallel to Marina from Station 19, when Maya (this very season) while in therapy, brought Carina a lasagna that gave her food poisoning. Because she was in a hurry when she baked it, that she brought it to Carina before it was ready.
Which, in correct writing world, means Carina and Maya are at a stage they're are not ready to get back together, they need a little more baking (Maya, more time in therapy, and Carina to trust her again) before they are fully baked - ready to get back together.
Buck's lasagna was perfectly cooked! And he served it to Eddie and Christopher.
Is that to say that the lightning strike spoiled Buck? (who apparently is the lasagna in this analogy somehow) and suddenly he's not ready anymore? Maybe he needs one more try before getting with Eddie? but that's beyond three tries - Abby, Ali, Taylor. Death girl makes four, so wth?
Is Marisol representing third try? Shannon, Ana, Marisol. I that what we're waiting for?
Because Eddie seemed ready, after the hospital, after roaming the halls like a ghost until Buck returned to him. - And in full, because they drew so close together after that, to the point that Eddie and Christopher spent their extra time with Buck, in his loft, on the wooden chairs at that wooden table, and none of it seems comfortable, and there's no couch, but Buck was home.
They were comfortable and happy with him.
And he is comfortable with them, happy to have them there.
He couldn't find the peace and quiet and space to heal in his own apartment, it kept getting intruded (I'll circle back to that later) so he found his refuge at Eddie's, he was asleep the second he rested on Eddie's couch, Eddie is home, Eddie is safe.
And the writers made it a glaring point that IT IS Eddie, because Christopher isn't part of the scene, so it's not the second parent here, it's Eddie's partner, his not yet but should be spouse.
In 6x13, we have the glaring parallel between Denny's bio father with Hen and Karen finding out, to Buck being entrusted with Christopher without needing Eddie there to supervise. (going all the way to S3 btw.)
What was that??
Now if it was the only interaction for that episode, I'd chalk that up to fathers and father figures and leave it at that.
But it wasn't - It was preceded by a freakishly domestic scene with all three of them and that POKER DATE - Because it was a date and you can't tell me otherwise.
Both unbelievably dressed up, Eddie looking at Buck like he's his entire world, like he's the only one in that room!
And he timed the exact time down to the second (like Chimney timed the time it would take help to arrive if Maddie gave birth at home and something went wrong) that Buck was dead. - The exact time Buck left Eddie, broken hearted, not breathing, looking like someone ripped his heart out and wheeled it away with Buck.
And Buck looked just as smitten in that poker game, he was having a good time, and seemed completely in awe of this new piece of information about Eddie.
He also glances back a bit in Eddie's direction when he says the exact time Buck was dead, if they were alone, would Buck have asked him or tell him like Maddie told Chimney? "You timed it." - Because that was the essence of that look.
What was the point of that episode??? - It cemented the Buckley-Diaz family so hard, that it was so hard to ignore.
But Eddie says in that episode, when the three were sitting together and he went full-Buck on the research of the side effects of lightning strikes victims. - He says that there was a guy who was struck by lightning and "the lights would turn on and off every time he walked into a room."
Which is the definition of how Eddie sees Buck, especially now after he died and came back and let them drew him closer to the Diaz boys.
But Eddie also said "But it didn't last." - "Only lasted a few weeks."
A few weeks, until Buck met Natalia - who "sees" him.
In between, we have Pepa trying to set Eddie up, but (aside from the fact that Buck's reaction was to ghost her) he wanted to let Venessa down easy, but she beat him to it.
When he says "You don't want to break abuela's heart."
She answers, "Or mine. You understand."
And he did, he does understand. And he was content to move on from there, thinking he wasn't alone, until the funeral scene and then the cemetery where Buck snuffs completely that light he brought with him and tells Eddie that Natalia "sees" him, better than anyone, better than himself.
Was that the writers way to tell us that it was pining Eddie era? that Buck is in crisis?
Because after Eddie was shot he got together pretty immediately with Taylor, after Eddie left he kissed Lucy, now he's dating Natalia after almost dying? A death doula? talk about morbid.
What was the point of that romance? If you can call it that?
In between we have wedding talks, and smores, and Christopher falling asleep on the couch while Eddie goes to get some smores in perfect imitation of Buck, and buddie sitting impossibly closer in the truck while talking about proposals and that damned camera moving to Eddie and Buck when Bobby says "It means you two were meant to be." - Like WTF?
Also, Why would we like Natalia for Buck if her reaction to learning about his life is to walk away as fast as her legs would take her??
And remember when I talked about intruding in the beginning (in connection to 6x12)? Well here we are again.
We have at first Cameron barging in (like Connor, in 6x12) and load all her problems with the other problem child in her life and then in 6x18, Buck leaves the door open for the paramedics, but Natalia barges in through the doors, and then also goes as far as asking if they shouldn't wait for the professionals, either forgetting Buck is a firefighter and is trained for it or doubting him even before they started something together, instead of asking him "have you done this before?" or "Do you know what you're doing?"
That would have gone over way better than looking for outside help inside someone else's apartment who gives you clear instructions of how you can help, it's pretty obvious that he at least half knows what he's doing.
And what the hell was it that made him ask the woman who not, say around three hours ago? came back into his life after leaving him to his mess (Ana, anyone?), to pick out a couch with him?? like wtf?
Like what was the point of it?
Now that I've covered Buck, I'm back to heartbroken Eddie, and don't tell me he wasn't on some level. That look he gave Buck at the cemetery, tells a long and painful story, the one where the bottom line is that he is not enough.
For the first time, in a really long time, Eddie is not enough to the one person who made him feel like he's everything.
Buck saved his life more than once, he SAT with him when he was going through A HARD TIME! (bathena parallels - scream with me!)
What is happening?
In complete rehearse of S4 - Eddie is going for help to everyone but Buck.
This time, it takes the shape of Bobby, on that father in-law, trip to the hardware store, where Bobby gives Eddie the right answer, but Eddie is not ready, not willing or doesn't think it will help to accept it.
Because that person that Bobby was paralleling to Athena ( in a vague way, of course) is Buck, and Eddie knows that too. - He says "So you definitely weren't looking for it." Eddie didn't look for Buck, he found him, he made Buck like him, made him his friend, his co-parent, his pretty much everything.
Because without Buck, Eddie has always floundered, looking for some anchor in the dark, whichever form it may come. - And while Ana came out of nowhere and Eddie was not yet aware of the potential of him and Buck and was stuck in the heteronormative narrative of a "Boy needs his momma" concept, he's well aware now.
Without Buck to steady him, he clings to the next person, who is "right in front" of him, and that is Marisol. It doesn't make her right for him, it just makes her there.
Now, how in the hell did they exchange numbers but talked for the first time weeks after everyone healed (except for Buck, somehow, lol), when in 6x17 Eddie was walking away, is beyond me, maybe telepathically. 🤷‍♂️ - And that "Like a date?" - that awkward first conversation is incomprehensible to me, you've talked, you've exchanged numbers, why does it feel like it's the first time?
Also that rescue in 6x18, I have a lot of medical and procedural questions about that half baked (like Maya's lasagna) scene, but what bugged me the most, was the lack of emotion.
Buck's entire family was in danger, and Buck is being entirely too cold about it? No. Buck wears his heart on his sleeve.
So where is the checking on Eddie as soon as possible, just to make sure he's breathing normally? Where's the hovering over Bobby?
Or going in the ambulance with Chimney? Or calling his sister? Why is Athena the one handling Eddie so gently, but not his best friend?
Where is the emotion? In season 1 Buck said he didn't want to be that red eyed robot, he wanted to be able to feel everything, where did that go? Has Buck resorted to working with his head instead of his heart? Is that the reverting back to Buck 1.0? Not because Buck 1.0 didn't feel anything, it's that he didn't want to get close to anyone who could leave him.
Is that what it is? Because the only real emotion Oliver gave us for that episode, was when held Buck's baby for that split second then handed him to Cameron. - There, and gone.
Now both JLH and Oliver stark are masters at making people FEEL things, tear up with them, why not here? What was the mechanics behind that emergency?
It wasn't interim captain Buck - that was Hen ("Hen that's you"), So what was that??
I have so many question, a lot of WHY, and WHAT, and WTF?? and a variety of WH questions. My mind is a confused mess, if buddie is nonexistent, explain this to me.
Go back to that gut wrenching scene in 2x08 (BUCK ACTUALLY) and make that journey with me up to those confusing 15 minutes of 6x18. - And explain this to me in a way that doesn't sound like stubborn blindness among other things, how buddie is only in our heads?!
If you've managed to get this far, thank you.
Sorry if I insulted someone but seriously this is driving me crazy.
Sending comforting hugs to this beautiful and nutty fandom 🤗❤

y'know we all want bucks loft to burn down in s7 and now i'm thinking about how bobby's apartment complex burnt down and he lost everything before he moved to la and found his new family and buck's loft burning down will just parallel this and cement his role in the 118 family no matter whose house he stays at because he'll realise he does have all of these people who are there for him all the time no matter what (this is how we get him to stop talking to the buckley parents trust me)

the fact that the show has decided to do these cute little almost black-and-white flashback snippets spliced into important emotional moments this season about chosing each other and finding happiness!!!! I am fucking rattling at the doors and clawing at the walls over the possibility of getting one FOR BUCK TOO but about him and eddie and chris and the family he already has and does not want to give up and how happy they already make him

Buck & Eddie: Eddie and Chimney are good friends
Eddie and Chimney have been good friends for several years and it was Chimney who saw Eddie first during a conversation he was having with Bobby, Hen and Buck in 2x1 “Under Pressure”.  After he saw Eddie he said, “Now that is a beautiful man”.  Chimney was also the first one to talk to Eddie while they were on the firetruck traveling to the scene of a call when he asked him about his silver star.  Hen interjected by asking Eddie if he knew anything about the “hot firefighter calendar” so that she could make Buck jealous since Eddie is so beautiful.  After they returned to the firehouse, Chimney casually talked with Eddie about the best way for him to take pictures so that he could submit them for the hot firefighter calendar right before Buck and Eddie started arguing.  Eddie and Chimney’s friendship has been shown numerous times throughout the seasons but it appears most of it happened offscreen the same way Eddie and Karen’s friendship did (related post).
Some of their interactions happened in CANON and while most of them took place while they were inside of the firehouse, a couple of them happened at each of their residences.  Chimney was the one who noticed that Eddie was uncomfortable when that woman started flirting with him in 2x4 “Stuck” (related post) and he saw Eddie checking out Buck’s butt in 3x4 “Triggers” when Buck arrived at the firehouse right after he and Eddie had just finished discussing Christopher’s nightmares and Maddie being afraid of Chimney after she dropped a plate while she was at his apartment because she had a flashback to a time when she was still married to Doug.  He was also the one who tried to tell Eddie he was being unfair to Buck in 3x5 “Rage” during their grocery store argument.  It was Eddie who told Chimney about the family he chose in 3x11 “Seize the Day” and he also told Chimney that if he loved Maddie, he should tell her in 3x13 “Pinned”.
Chimney and Eddie have also had conversations about Christopher including the one they had in 6x4 “Animal Instincts” when Chimney told Eddie that Christopher might be at the age where he doesn’t want his dad around all the time.  They’ve had several conversations over the years with the most recent one that included them talking about Hoover, the dog that everyone from the 118 passed around in an effort to try to find him a home in 6x5 “Home Invasion”. Their conversation was very telling because it illustrated how Eddie has been to Chimney’s apartment before when he said, “That was weirder than usual” after the nanny Chimney and Maddie hired to take care of Jee-Yun closed the door in his face.  Even though they’re showing some of Eddie and Chimney’s friendship in CANON, they have been careful by keeping their interactions outside of the firehouse limited which is similar to the way they handle the dynamic between Maddie and Eddie (related post).  It would be interesting to watch some of the things Eddie and Chimney talk about when they’re at Eddie’s house or Chimney’s apartment.  What could they possibly talk about other than firefighting?  The Buckley siblings perhaps since Eddie is in love with Buck and Chimney is in love with Maddie.  If the narrative continues towards making Buck and Eddie a CANON couple, then it’s unlikely that Buck, Eddie, Maddie and Chimney will be seen together at one of their residences hanging out and talking as a group until Buck and Eddie are dating.  Even though they were all at Eddie’s house in 3x11 “Seize the Day” the interactions between Maddie and Eddie didn’t exist even though Maddie was in Eddie’s kitchen when Buck told her, “This is Eddie’s house, I’m not really a guest”.

Whenever I think too much about Ted just making that decision to leave Richmond without talking with Henry (that we saw), I keep remembering Eddie doing the same thing in 911, leaving the 118 for Christopher
But the clear difference here is that 911 actually treats their child character as an actual person, rather than a prop, so Christopher was actually given the opportunity to talk to Eddie about leaving his job for him
And after everything, Eddie ends up going back to his found family because that's where he's ultimately the happiest and most himself
So where is Ted the most himself? In Kansas? If so, they should've used the third season to show that

S5 E4 (911 first watch through)
While watching Maddie fear that she's not safe for her baby and immediately leaving to keep her safe. I can't help but remember an episode of Ghost Whisper (played by Jennifer Love Hewitt) where a ghost thought she drowned her baby so she checked herself into an asylum (then died because it was the 50s). in the end it's revealed she didn't hurt her baby, she just thought she did and she was suffering from PPD. It kinda makes me think that since JeeYun was fine that she never actually went under the water maybe Maddie just thought she did.

9-1-1 6x11 is SO good what the hell
shout out to this YouTube channel for having all the clips I needed to show my non 911 friends what the hell im talking about

The 118 family is SO heartwarming. Buck you matter SO much to so many people. To think you didn’t believe you had a family. To think your family was abandoning you. That’s insane
I think all of this cuts significantly deeper especially with the state of The Rookie right now. Lucy is SO alone. She has been abandoned and it’s not great.
