9-1-1 | REWATCH ➤ S01E09 Trapped

“A wolf will chew its own leg just to escape. Which makes perfect sense. If you’re being held back, cornered, forced into a situation, you do whatever you can to change it, to break free, to survive. But sometimes, escape isn’t our default. Sometimes we stay the course. Because traps don’t look the same to everybody, especially not from inside one. Sometimes what the rest of the world see as having us pinned, actually ends up pushing us forward, giving us purpose, control, someone to talk to.”

Wait, a character can become canonically queer and not immediately be sent to super mega turbo hell by the writers???

No im not “grieving” Buddie, do you know how amazing it is to have queer/bisexual men representation in today’s media? Do you know how important it is for all of the community and the younger people watching this? This is a huge milestone and Buck’s sexuality is valid outside of any type of ship. Today we celebrate.

You should call him. Really? Heck yeah!

HE'S BISEXUAL AND FREE

It ain't no lie, baby, bi bi bi ♫

Something I haven't seen discussed yet is not only did buck and Tommy kiss, but they JUST kissed. Tommy kissed him once, just communicating that "okay is this what you want us to do?" And then he set up a real romantic date where he's going to pick buck up at 8 and everything.

Buck who has a shit load of trauma from partners wanting him for nothing more than his body. From always having to be the person adding the romance into every relationship to convince people there's more to him then sex.

Baby boy just got asked on a wholesome date and got promised romantic helicopter flying lessons and he won't even have to drive and goddddvdhebusjabsjsjdnxns

This is all I could think of

#husband behavior

evan buckley i have grown quite fond of you

"Now, you tell me that's the wrong kid. Look, you're gonna see your own kids again. I do believe that. But right now, Asha, and another thousand just like her, they're your kids too. That's your blood in their veins. [...] Could you explain to me again how God's not punishing me? Oh, he's just teasing you. Yeah. Considering who I work with, he must figure I can take a joke."

people saying eddie isn’t gay and doesn’t have the subtext the way buck did is crazy like for sure no the man is internalized homophobia repression catholic guilt personified who had actual literal panic attacks at the thought of marrying a woman whose boy best friend raises his kid with him and means more to him than any girlfriend he’s ever had but no definitely that man is a heterosexual. just straight swan diving in pussy every chance he gets. be serious.

I don’t think yall understand how meaningful it is to have Oliver say “when you close your eyes it all feels the same” (kissing on screen). The fact that he doesn’t laugh it off, or say he had to push through it, or that it was a little weird like other actors have in the past is so incredibly important. This is him portraying a character and his sexuality, and it’s so validating to have the actor do his job the way Oliver has, in such a caring, positive way. It’s the feeling of finally belonging, of blending in when you’ve been marginalized and picked out all your life. Love is love, and a kiss is just a kiss.

Wait, Tommy's gay?

i'm sorry but i love them so much it's crazy
