You lay your bets and then you pay the price
“He knows he shouldn’t jump to conclusions. That he shouldn’t assume what other people are thinking and feeling. That he shouldn’t catastrophize.
Then again, Buck has never done anything quite as reckless as kissing his best friend. Buck has never made such a thoughtless decision as risking one of the best things he’s ever had in his life. Buck has never done anything that could lead to one of the things he fears the most becoming a reality.
Because the split second that it took for Buck to panic, he realized that he basically clicked the button to blow up his whole life.”
(Or: a kiss happens, spiraling ensues, but they still get their happily ever after)
WDYM !?!? A RED FLAG!?!? Monaco pls PLS let Charles win
Carlitos POR FAVOR this is not the time to get a puncture
AND SERGIO WAS HIT BY A HAAS?!?
We’re barely a minute in my heart can’t take this
what do you think is the sweetest and most well written part of Buck and Tommy's relationship? When they kissed in the first episode they had any kind of meaningful interaction or when Tommy ditched Buck on the curb after their first date and Buck somehow ended up feeling like the asshole about it. If that's a sweet and well written relationship Eddie and Marisol are When Harry Met Sally.
Oh no! They kissed after one episode! How could I forget the only way to write a good on screen romance is to spend at least half a season having them dance around their feelings with enough space for the holy ghost?
And yeah tommy left buck (a grown man in his 30s btw) outside the restaurant, because rather than just not mention they were on a date, buck made up a very weird and uncomfortable lie. bffr that's a "yeah sorry, I just got a text my grandma died," level red flag. I'd have clocked out at the ally comment, and tommy managed to turn that around into flirting!
But anyway thanks for the opportunity to list some sweet bucktommy details so far:
just buck's entire face when he talks to/about tommy, that man is smitten! ((x) if you need visual proof). he has the world's biggest crush on his boyfriend and i want him to be insufferable about it!
tommy's little "so that was okay?" after their kiss kills me every time, it's gentle but also confident and forward (which i think compliments buck's personality very well)
I mean tommy felt so bad about being the cause of problems between buck and eddie, he went to buck's house in person to apologise.
speaking of gentle. Evan. I need, need someone to pick tim minear's brain about the decision to have tommy consistently call him evan, the implications are driving me insane.
the way their relationship is tied up with, imo, one of the most interesting coming out arcs i've seen on tv in years. bi buck is very special to me and like it or not tommy is a part of that.
I love the detail of buck getting tommy's order wrong, they could've easily gone the "omg, you got my order right the first time, we're meant to be!" route, but imo there's something refreshing about showing love as this thing you have to work to build vs something that magically happens to you.
and the invisible string/full circle symbolism potential is insane. The fact chimney saved tommy's life, the parallel of tommy needing to leave the 118 to find himself which in turn left a spot in the exact place buck needed to do the same. The way buck is the reason that chimney meets maddie and then years later chim (potentially) returns the favour. They've stumbled into a writing goldmine here and i think they'd be fools to waste it.
look i'll readily admit i've no clue where they might be taking bucktommy, tbh i don't think tim minear knows, but they've sure as hell crammed a lot of potential into those 2 + a bit episodes. That's what people are responding to.
I knew within five seconds of Ashe and Hillinghead meeting that this was going to be a ship.
Did you ever actually love the character? Or did you just like them if the writers made your own headcanons come true?
(Yes, this is about Evan Buckley.)
Hot take: if you are one of those people that would literally have buddie or nothing at all (bi!buck being canon) then you are no better than the Buckley parents… I’ll repeat that one more time, in case it didn’t register with you:
Nothing Buck ever does is good enough for you: him discovering this new part of himself and exploring it isn’t enough, him being giddy and infatuated and HAVING AND HONEST TO GOD CRUSH isn’t enough, him being HAPPY isn’t enough.
He isn’t enough. Perhaps he never was enough for you.
But he is everything and more to so many people. His story means THE WORLD to so many people. People that literally never watched the show before are either now watching it or have just heard about it BECAUSE of his current storyline. This story matters. He matters. And if you can’t put aside your ship for one second to appreciate how huge this is, both inside and outside of the show, then you never actually loved this character in the first place.
thinking about my fic in the shower:
trying to actually write my fic:
Do you love me, baby?
It was his wedding day. He never really thought he’d ever be able to say that, but here he is now.
(Or: wedding bells are ringing around, but a runaway groom chases after his real future)
