brave || lucy bronze x reader ||
lucy must put on a brave face when you go down during a game.
lucy could count on one hand the amount of times that she had ever been truly terrified. the fear that she felt whenever you went down was the greatest by far. it was almost like a sick joke. lucy didn't have time to be bitter about it, not when you obviously needed her to be there for you more. and so, lucy tried her best to swallow it all back to kneel next to you.
"hey bird, that was a nasty hit you took," lucy said. up close, it was so much worse. lucy had seen you go down, and momentarily had just frozen on the opposite side of the field. standing next to you, there was so much blood. that was nothing compared to the dazed look in your eyes.
"lucy, it hurts," you whined. lucy knew that you were about to start crying. she was certain the only reason you weren't yet were all of the younger players on the field. the one who had knocked into you was recently brought up from a youth team, and you didn't want to scar her.
"it's okay. i've got you. shh, just breathe for me," lucy instructed you. the medics came over and took you straight off of the field. lucy was subbed off as well, a decision that sarina made without second thought.
"keep a close eye on her for all of us," millie told your wife. lucy nodded and gave millie a quick hug as the woman went on for lucy. there hadn't been an official sub for lucy, but everybody knew that millie could handle it for a bit. there weren't that many minutes left in the game, and england managed to pull ahead early on.
"look at me bird." lucy gently grabbed onto your chin, forcing you to look up at her. "that's gonna leave a nasty cut, but i think i can get over it for a while."
"what a saint," you huffed. lucy smiled, glad that you could still joke with her. she knew that it was just an expression, but she was glad that the humor hadn't been knocked out of you. lucy could still remember whenever you had gotten a concussion back in college so bad that your career had almost ended. "are you also going to nurse me back to health?"
"of course i am. i'm not letting you out of my sight," lucy mumbled as she pulled you into a hug. lucy was incredibly gentle with you in a way that you knew meant she was terrified. "how are you feeling, really?"
"well, my head hurts like a bitch, but i am okay. i would be a bit better if you didn't look like you'd just seen a ghost. i got up lucy, i walked off of the field. it's not like last time," you told her. lucy swallowed back some tears. the memories of your injury still haunted her. it hadn't been all bad though. lucy had admitted her feelings for you that night at the hospital, even if she thought you were in a coma when you weren't. "you could have stayed and played on."
"nah, someone's got to give bright those pity minutes. she likes riling up the young ones when she's bored." lucy laughed a little, but you could still hear the tears behind it. lucy didn't let go of you until she was certain that she wouldn't just burst into tears. you laid back until the doctor came back to finish up your concussion tests.
you knew that you were concussed, it was just a question of how badly. your facial cut was superficial and didn't need stitches, which you were grateful for. lucy held your hand tightly as it was bandaged up before you went back to the locker room to wash up. the game had ended by the time you were finished, but the team was all seemingly waiting to see how you were. the fact that you hadn't been rushed off to the hospital was a good sign.
"you know, you just about gave bronzey here a heart attack," mary said as she slung her arm around your shoulders. she tried to pull you away from lucy, who did not loosen her grip on you one bit. "scared the rest of us pretty bad too."
"gotta keep you on your toes. as for lucy, she was very brave. kept a calm head with me through my tests." lucy blushed at your praise, but didn't argue.
"what's the verdict?" keira asked. you could see her, georgia, and leah practically shaking with anticipation.
"i'll be out for at least a month, maybe two. i am really sorry guys, i was hoping to see this through, but it's just the luck of the draw," you told them. almost immediately, you felt their bodies crash into yours. lucy was trapped in the hug as well, but you could tell from the way that her body sagged into it that she needed it.
"you can be our mascot. every time that we score, we'll do it for you," georgia promised. you ruffled the shorter woman's hair a bit before you pressed a kiss to the top of her head. the team seemed to be in complete agreement with dedicating the whole tournament to you, which you knew meant trouble for the other teams.

I've been thinking about season 7 of the queer firefighter show and have decided that it was absolute trash.
I started watching the show like two months ago, from season 1, so basically I speed ran the entire thing and I can confidently say season 7 was the worst of all them. Which sucks because we got such good events - they were just handled so clumsily.
The writing was fucking all over the place, the characters were OOC, there was no continuity, and the more I think about the potential it had the more disappointed I am with Buck's coming out story line.
They didn't do SHIT with it except make it about kissing boys, which yes is a big part of being a bisexual man, but like...also not the only thing about being a bisexual who discovers themselves in their thirties? The writers sexualized the whole thing, and bisexuals get so sexualized already... it was just...low stakes and lazy.
I share all of this to say that when you approach a story with no plan (which I've seen rumored was the case with this season) winging it results in mediocrity if you're lucky and absolute garbage if you're not.
I know because I'm a pantser when I write and my experience has taught me I need at least a list of bullets for story structure in order for anything to make sense, and I never publish part of something before I finish all of it because once you put it out there into the world, retconning is a bitch.
I really wish the writers/showrunners of 911 had approached s7 with less of a "who cares" attitude because they basically put all their eggs in the bi!buck and buddie PR basket and kind of ignored the need for like...story and character.
I really hope they get their shit together for season 8. But American television, like American capitalism, forces things to live beyond their staying power (HOW does Grey's have 20 seasons??) regardless of whether the story itself has passed its termination point. Because at this point, I worry the writers are just going to make an even bigger mess than they already have by focusing too much on shock and drama and ignoring the thing that made the show loved, which was the characters.
911 was GOOD for a really long time, and it would be nice to see it go back to being good in season 8.
