How are the gay firefighters? What's the couch theory?

Gay firefighters are great, 911anon!

Couch theory hmmmm how best to summarize.

There’s a lot more layers to this but on a base level:

Earlier this season, Buck is cooking for Eddie and Christopher (Lasagna and it’s his third try) when Christopher makes fun of him for not having a couch. Buck reveals that he associates his couches with his relationships and that he’s worried about picking a new one (couch/relationship).

In the last episode, we see that his mother (who he’s largely estranged from) has bought him a new couch. Try as he might, Buck can’t fall asleep on it both due to interruptions and apparent discomfort. When feed up with people visiting, he heads to Eddie’s where falls asleep on Eddie’s couch before Eddie even returns from the kitchen with drinks.

Buck’s actor (Oliver) has revealed that the couch Buck’s mom bought won’t last.

More in-depth analysis here, here, and here

Basically, couch theory is a canonical idea about Buck relating couches to his relationships with people.

Hey Mod, I’m pretty new round here, but I just got a question for you… you seem to know your dsaf stuff.

Why is no one talking about the 9/11 George Bush DSaF scandal? Like in everywhere I see no one talks about it. I’ve seen posts with the most niche references to all three games (of which I have tried and enjoyed thoroughly!) but no one talks about that specific scene from DSaF two. Why not?? I understand it’s a problematic and kind of gorey, but I’ve seen plenty of worse stuff on non canonical events that show something equal to or worse than that! I dunno, maybe I’m not looking hard enough? I understand back in the day some people were pissed about and I understand why… Jack sticking the explosives you know where was kind of weird and threw me off when I was first playing the game. Yeah, I’ve seen it talked about, but like… Rarely. And it was a while ago. Any thoughts? If it’s too problematic you think, could you tell me why…? Sorry! Hope you have a great day! :)

Maybe it’s just the fact I just woke up like exactly 2 minutes ago but idk what this is. Anyone else is free to chip in tho

[bigassbowlingballhead]

started watching 911 because of you so im gonna be giving you updates but tell me why in season 1 abby has more chemistry with bobby than she ever does with buck LMAO??

OH NO. I am so sorry for what you’re about to experience. I can not wait to hear your reactions.

Because Bobby’s got game!! And bucks just waiting for Mr. Right to show up.

And kind of opened up his world, and he had this moment of, “Oh! That’s the thing that I was looking for.”

[ijustdontlikepeople]

But are the gay bitches together or do they have a kid? I'm so lost with this show

I’m obsessed with the phrasing of the question, nonnie. Lol

Spoilers below for 911 & 911: Lone Star

This is Eddie Diaz. He joins 911 in S2. He’s a single parent, estranged from his wife and the mother of his child.

This is his son Christopher Diaz, Eddie’s son.

This is Buck. Buck and Eddie are partners in the field and quickly become best friends (after a short enemies to friends stint).

Buck and Eddie are not together in the show, but Buck is canonically the person Christopher goes to when he scared or angry and can’t go to his father. We frequently see Buck cooking for the Diaz boys, babysitting Chris, or helping in some other fashion (like assisting Eddie with creating a skateboard that was safe for Christopher to ride - Chris has Cerebral Palsy). Eddie eventually changes his will so that if anything happens to him, Buck will be Christopher’s legal guardian. Additionally, we frequently see how much Eddie and Buck care about each other. When Eddie has a PTSD episode, Buck is the one that he talks to. When Buck has issues with his family, he goes to Eddie. Etc.

There are hints going on that could be foreshadowing or could be queerbaiting. (People on separate occasions have assumed Christopher was Buck’s, that Buck and Eddie were a couple, and that Buck is gay.) This definitely could be queerbaiting, however, the show has a happily married lesbian couple with an adorable child

(Hen, Karen, & Denny)

And the spin-off has a very cute gay couple

(TK & Carlos)

So they writers definitely aren’t against lgbtq+ couples so it’s not an impossibility that they may eventually be canon.

TLDR: Buck and Eddie are not canonically in a romantic relationship. Chris is Eddie’s son and Buck plays a kind of additional paternal/familial role in Christopher’s life.

Lou Ferrigno Jr, I need you...

hey guys. the people on twitter are COOKING I fear

[stevenrogered]

Eddie Diaz + the Evan Buckley double take

[watchyourbuck]

I can’t believe other buddie shippers are made about BuckTommy like do we all not want to see Buck get absolutely wrecked by a man who can pick him up and throw him around? Eddie’s time will come let Buck railed babes

[bigfootsmom]

If there’s days when Buck is at work and Tommy is home with Annie, will Buck sometimes call him and beg him to bring her to the firehouse because the shifts are so long and he needs baby time?

Oh 100% (the rest of the 118 also benefits from baby time)
