Can We All Agree That Markus Was Toxic Asf

You know what would be a fun 9-1-1 bottle episode? Going off from clips I’ve seen of the Rookie, where Tim and Lucy have criminal doppelgängers, the 118 should have a shift or two where they run into their own doppelgängers on calls. Like I can imagine Buck’s is some British photographer or something (I just want an excuse for Oliver to use his British accent). Eddie’s is a street dancer (come on we all want to see him dancing again). Chimney’s a serious judge (love his acting range). Hen an attorney (like her role from Under the Dome). Bobby’s maybe a bar tender? Even Ravi can be included as like a very intelligent college student who’s on break from an Ivy League school (the path he broke away from before becoming a firefighter). I think it would be fun! Hell throw in a ghost sensing chick and a royal from Africa for Maddie and Athena too!

And because I need to make this a little bit about buddie, Buck and Eddie possibly maybe kind of unknowingly flirt with the doppelgängers (Buck with Eddie’s and Eddie with bucks).

I mean just imagine the chaos and hilarity of it all!!!

(Oh god did i just come up with a new wip idea? Must I write this?!)

i think it's been said before but i can't find the post so i'm saying it again: one of my absolute FAVORITE things about buddie is that so many of the little things you find in fanfics that you would expect to be fully fanon are actually ripped straight from canon. buck taking chris to the zoo? season 5, episode 2. buck making cookies for chris's bake sale? season 6, episode 13. buck and eddie sharing a locker? this was shown in multiple episodes of season 4. the diaz house being more of a home to buck than his own apartment? it's canon that buck fell asleep within seconds on eddie's couch after struggling to get comfortable in his own place.

then!!!!! there's the classic elf scene where someone canonically thought that buck and eddie were a couple and that chris was their son. and of course the concept of buck being as a coparent to chris that's been prevalent ever since that infamous scene — at first, it was ours, but then season 4, episode 14 smacked us over the head with the will reveal and the fact that eddie diaz himself completely and totally agrees with us!!! like...i don't know if i'm phrasing this right, but there's just. so many beautiful little things about these two that are normally restricted to either traditional romantic love stories — or fanfic, in the case of most non canon ships — and yet we get to see them happen over and over and over again w buddie on our screens.

not an explicit gay porn blog rb my post to say that bt is more intimate than buddie……

they’re also reblogging posts saying lou is responsible for the uptick in viewership as well as completely misrepresenting the network switch….

(also the referencing buddie shippers as “people” bc they’ve decided to completely dehumanize us meanwhile they are the ones doing the harassing of actors/crew… lfj was being called out on racist behavior, not being budllied bc poetry weren’t blowing sunchine up a nepo baby’s ass)

as well as reblogging multiple buddie/buddie shipper posts( @jackwhiteprophetic )and saying things like “you misspelled tommy” or using them to soundboard their love of oliver (which don’t get me wrong i love oliver and id much rather people speak positively about him than the delusional fucks who have been harassing him but coming from a bt shipper it always feels so off to me idk)

or blatantly saying buddie shippers are delusional while perpetuating this claim that buck (who has spent all of maybe 10 minutes of screentime with him) is completely head over heels in love with him

I’m sick of these people and i really hope the show doesn’t continue to just ignore everything they’ve done (especially for ryan and oliver’s sake) because these are the people who make fandom spaces toxic. these are the reasons tv shows/media refuses to acknowledge fan engagement (not that 9-1-1 is ignoring fan engagement). Tim Minear has been vocal about cakling out other people/groups in the fandom directly; he needs to keep that same energy and tell these people that they’re being the problem here.

I’m so sick of people trying to act like buddie hasn’t been THE ship for years while acting like this underdeveloped character and this likewarm representation of a ship are somehow the holy grail of queer media.

Not to mention the fact that I once got a flag on my account saying they deleted a post for “explicit nudity” because i had posted a picture w a shirtless guy in it, but they can post/reblog literal PORN and they’re just labeled as a “mature account” by tumblr.

(now im not a prude, i know porn/sex work is s real job, but tumblr can’t just pick and choose who it wants to allow to post porn or not)

but who knows; after all i’m just a delusional buddie shipper so 🤷

inspired by tags (x x) on this

"we need buck having a mental breakdown in s7!!" "we need buddie kissing in s7!" you know what I NEED? Christopher being in danger and buck getting so worried he growls "get your hands off MY kid" without thinking about it. that or the 118 answering to a fire on chris school and when buck find Christopher he yells "dad!" instead of buck. ANYTHING to gets these people to finally acknowledge each other as father and son.

the fun thing about eddie diaz is that i can make any of his storylines gay and i don't even have to try that hard. marrying his first girlfriend because he got her pregnant and the church says it's the right thing to do? gay. being in the army? gay. repression? gay. obviously. moving to LA? gay. he's from texas. what cishet texan is going to california? exactly. none. gay. never emotionally committing to women? gay. strained relationship with his parents who had expectations for him he's never going to meet? gay. growing up going to catholic school? so deeply gay in so many ways. wanting to feel normal again? this one was actually just trauma. perhaps a little gay though. having cardiac issues because someone assumed his longterm girlfriend was his wife? just start saying slurs at that point. gay. co parenting with another man? gay. not actually being with him? somehow gayer......pining and yearning are famously known for being homosexual emotions. don't even get me started on feeling like he has to perform on dates. homosexual behavior eddie diaz. fork found in kitchen some might say. fruit found in fruit bowl? whatever

I DIED

quite embarrassing actually

calling buddie shippers mlm fetishizers is crazy when we've been rooting for them, their friendship, and loving their trust in each other and their family dynamic with chris for 6 years. if anything... you know what, I'm gonna stay quiet 🤐

5 pages only to give him new hedgehog yes im not sorry
