#911 7 season

[shatteringtheverystars]

Okay, I have to say something about some of us (fans) regarding Buck, Tommy and Eddie. I've seen a lot of people who aren't fans of Tommy for a while now, either because he's in a relationship with Buck or just individually, but sometimes I see some negative comments about Tommy or the relationship he shares with Buck that really bother me and I think it might bother some other people too. Guys, it's okay to like Tommy as a character and root for Buddie to happen at the same time, it's not like they're two completely opposite things! There's a lot going on with these characters and there's plenty of room for a lot more to happen. Sometimes I see a post referring to Buck and Tommy together as if the series was going to end tomorrow because of their relationship. Being completely honest, I've been on Team Buddie since Eddie came to 911. I'll always root for Buddie and I'm very happy when news comes out that brings us closer to that achievement, but I really like the character that Tommy has grown into and having Buck as a character that is very dear to me - I love Tommy's actions/attitudes that have brought positive changes to Buck's well-being and that have led him to new realizations and new grounds. Also, it seems that being in a relationship with Tommy, Buck is feeling like he's never felt before, that in itself is already wonderful, he's found himself with a person who gives him space, isn't toxic, seems to do everything possible to make him happy and they get along very well together. Because of this, I can't like Eddie anymore and think that he and Buck together wouldn't be just as good? (or even better?) (We can also want for it to be better while enjoying things where they're at now, there's always room for improvement) I mean, it's okay to root for Buddie, we've all wanted this and we'll be thrilled when it happens for sure, but along with that we can also enjoy the now, be happy with the development that's happening between these three characters (both individually and within their relationships) while we wait for it to happen. Lou himself told an interviewer that: "he thinks fans who want Buck and Eddie to become romantically involved should still embrace Tommy"

Also, his words regarding Buddie in this video:

“I think that from Season 2, Buck and Eddie have had great chemistry. And has it been more than friendship? Has it not? Does anyone know for real? I think it’s great. I think it’s a relationship we don’t really see ever on TV — two men that are enjoying each other, that are friends, that are sharing intimate moments,” Ferrigno Jr. said. “Are they? Are they not? Either way, it’s two strong men being vulnerable and opening things up, and I just love that, and I try to be that person for my friends. Will they end up together? I don’t know. But Tommy’s a good guy. Tommy’s really got a lot to offer. And you need to shake things up a little bit, because Tommy extended the life of Buddie, because now Tommy and Buck are going on a date and what happens if that doesn’t work out? Huh? Have you thought of that?”

It says it all, I think having a little patience with the characters and with what the producers are creating for them is the best thing to do. That's it, besides, it's okay to like Tommy individually too, imagine when Buddie happens, and suddenly Tommy continues in their lives as a friend, or a coworker, anyway, so many possibilities. Thank you so much for coming to my TED Talk, I needed to see a post like this today and I thought "why don't I do it myself?". Let's keep going! and stay hydrated!

It's not only sexy af but REAL bi/queer representation, which isn't half-assed or noncommittal, that Buck explicitly is hot for Tommy over masculine things. Tommy, in general, is very trad masc; he's super muscular, tall, with a strong jaw, deep voice, short hair. During their kisses (so far), neither is clean shaven. Buck likes Tommy's cleft. Tommy shows up to the wedding specifcally as a filthy, manly firefighter, and Buck calls him *a beast* in a flirty tone before eagerly kissing him.

Buck is attracted to Tommy *because of* his manliness, not in spite of it.

They really put two masc men together romantically/sexually on main channel cable TV and made no apologies, excuses, or compromises. 🏳️‍🌈 What a time to be alive. 🥲

This is kinda revolutionary? Just a few years ago destiel was queerbaiting fans to superhell but now? NOW? A show saw the fans HC a character as queer with valid evidence and instead went "you know what? You're right. We didn't originally plan this for them but we see you". Then four episodes into the season, canonized his queerness. Not the last second, Not the last Episode. the BEGINNING of the season, with time to expand AND we know we're getting another season after this. Just look how far we've come.

Fox: we can't let Buck and Eddie interact, the fans will read too much into it

ABC: they already do so why not give them something to read into

Fox: the show doesn't need promoting

ABC: put the cast in front of a camera and let them say whatever the fuck they want

Fox: Maddie and Eddie are only interesting when they're traumatised

ABC: wrong again! Look at these goofballs!

Fox: Buck is the straightest straight to ever straight

ABC: *maniac giggling* he just kissed a guyyyy

Fox: ...

ABC: fuck you!

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.

please be happy💞

We finally get to see two macho men being queer and open to dating each other without pretenses or this idea of it being wrong. This has been what I wanted for years now. And the fact that ABC did it no questions asked speaks volumes to me.
