Is it just me that tears up at the end of Athena Begins as soon as Rise Up begins playing? I’m full on bawling every single time I rewatch from the first note.
So I know the showrunner hates Buddie and insists it’s all always platonic and nothing more than a good friendship, but I’d like to pose a question to us tumblr scholars…
If Eddie+Buck=Friends
And Buck+Hen=Friends
And Buck+Bobby+Athena=Friends
Then why is it that we don’t have Denny giving an emotionally moving scene at Buck’s bedside? One that makes Aisha, his own screen mom cry? According to KR, wouldn’t it be the same thing? What about May? She’s not crying over Buck either. She’s not yelling at him about how he promised never to leave her.
It’s because Chris is different to Buck, and Buck has a different relationship with Chris. Buck wouldn’t treat Hen like he treats Eddie. Yeah, if Hen was hurt he’d be worried and try to make sure she’s okay, if he needed to watch Denny then of course he would, but it would be as “my moms’ friend Buck” as opposed to being canonically Christopher’s Buck (“he’s hanging with his Buck today”), the place he runs off to when he hates his dad, his legal guardian if the need arises, the guy there for video games, the one Chris asks to spend Christmas with or go to his place, the one who pranks with him. Buck holds a bigger place in Christopher’s life than the other 118 firefam kids’ lives.
Come on writers, the Buddie of it all is right there. Buddie isn’t even far-fetched, it’s written in already.
Still not over that episode of 911 where Chimney gives Bobby grief about not donating blood. What if Bobby had been having gay sex, Chimney. Did you ever think about that
I’m always thinking about the Monster Mash. Bobby “Boris” Pickett accidentally made the most iconic Halloween jam of the 20th century and he decided to go all in on it for the rest of his life. The man spent the rest of his professional career wearing a lab coat and singing goofy Halloween novelty songs. The Monster Swim. The Monster’s Holiday. Have you listened to The Monster Rap? You have to listen to The Monster Rap. It’s about Frankenstein’s monster learning how to rap because Igor went to DJ school.

Time to get spooky already? This month flew by way too fast. If I go to ANY Hallowe'en party and don't hear these tunes, I consider the DJ awful and the party a bust. I have high standards. 🤣 I'll go easy on DJ Nosy and keep it at three. **casually drops a bag of treats at the DJ booth**
