Would love to hear your thoughts on the subletter subtext when you’re ready, because I don’t really get it? So would love to understand.

i mean this is mostly me rambling but like. TO ME, the point of that line (plus buck's earlier insistence that eddie was a renter, plus all of the angst about eddie leaving centered so strongly around the house itself) is that the house is a symbol of buck's relationship with eddie (and chris, to some degree). so him going, 'it wasn't mine, i was subletting' is also him saying, 'eddie and chris aren't really mine, my place there was temporary'. this also ties into the symbolism of eddie's house in texas - he's repairing the house while he's repairing his relationship with chris, but buck is at a distance for both.

like, the thing is buck really did let eddie go in a more significant way than just giving up on fighting him about texas, in a way that i don't think either of them - certainly not eddie - have really grasped yet. he's the only one of the core team who didn't try to convince eddie to come back to los angeles. he wasn't pissed about the job offer or what it meant, even though eddie kind of wanted him to be pissed about it so they could have that fight; he was just pissed that he was the last to know. he doesn't expect eddie to choose him, so he can't bring himself to ask. so he doesn't. chim and hen can both push eddie on it, because there's less emotional baggage there, but buck can't make himself do it.

so even when they're both back in la for good - well, the house was always for eddie and chris. buck was just a subletter.

i'm really hoping they follow this thread through s9, because it's a reversal of their usual dynamic: eddie is the one who retreats behind walls and buck is the one who pushes. it'll be interesting to see it the other way around.

fifty sentences friday! i had a buck brainstorm and couldn't stop thinking about it. roommates era wip, immediately after 8x18.

“I really thought you’d be happy me and Chris were back,” Eddie said. “You were so pissed off when I left. What’s with you?”

“Look,” Buck said. “I had to…grow up sometime, I guess. I put too much on you and Chris. When you left, I got a reality check. That’s all. I’m glad you’re back, so glad. But I can’t live with you, because you and Chris, I’m your friend. Best friend, maybe. But I’m not your family, and I was treating you that way. It wasn’t fair to you. That’s why I was so upset when you left, but I—I got it figured out now. I'm good."

Eddie’s hands immediately went to his hips, nostrils flaring. “You saying you’re not family?”

“N-no. We’re all family, Eddie, but we—” He gestured between the two of them. “We are not a family. We’re friends. We’re there for each other. But if you and Chris need to leave again, you wouldn’t take me with you. And that’s normal, for friends.”

“Great.” Eddie shoved his fingers through his hair and started to pace in a little circle away from Buck. “Great. You always—do this. You get upset about not being the most important, and you decide to take off first so everyone will talk you out of it.”

Buck sagged against the counter. “Eddie, I’m not being dramatic, and I don’t want you to talk me out of it. There’s not even enough room in your house for me.”

“Yes, there is,” Eddie snapped, glaring at him over his shoulder.

“Where?” Buck threw his hands up. “Do I get to sleep on your couch forever? Cook you breakfast every day as a—as a reward for getting to stay? Beg for treats?”

Eddie stilled. “You should leave.”

“I am,” Buck said.

“No, now," Eddie said. "You don't like being here? Get out then."
