Red, White, and Royal Blue: FirstPrince's First Time, Part 1

[deadnatura11]

So Buck's storyline moving forward is figuring out exactly what he wants out of a relationship, who is his ideal partner, etc.

And Eddie’s storyline moving forward is about recapturing joy and putting himself first - not trying to 'fix' the people around them or allow someone else other than himself define what his joy is and who he is...

Okay. I'm seeing the pieces...

Bisexual. BYEsexual.

I think every single queer person can confirm that most of us had that one friend who we were (mostly unknowingly) secretly in love with and a little too close to and the next step to that friendship was almost always being jealous af when they had other friends who they were getting close to

Now granted most of us were like 11 when we had this weird very gay friendship that we look back on like OHHHH THATS WHAT THAT WAS but you know what? buddie are just slow on the uptake

Fr tho TIMOTHY? Why are you using gay ass experiences for eps? Like this is as common a gay experience as uhaul lesbians (who buddie also are- yes they’re men that doesn’t matter🙄👋) ANSWER FOR YOUR CRIMES TIMOTHY

Something something about the cursed mummy working at a rodeo and the connection to lassos and wrangling bulls and foreshadowing. Something something about buck wearing a moustache when he dresses up as billy boils which connects things to Eddie.

How rodeos are connected to Texas in the general psyche. The idea that Eddie needs to go and wrangle with his bull in the next episode - Helena.

That she has been constantly trying to Buck him off but he needs to hold on in order to break the curse she has been on his life - the play on Buck being a massive support to Eddie - that gives him the strength to stay on and win the fight and pen the bull.

That he needs to break free of that curse in order to transform into his true self and how the werewolf is a representation of that happening and also a foreshadowing for the shaving off of the stache

“how could eddie and buck not know they’re in love with each other?” “they’ve been in love before, ofc they would recognise the feeling” buck’s biggest love was abby and eddie’s was shannon and both relationships were filled with issues and clearly they weren’t meant for each other.

on top of that we’ve seen how both of them aren’t necessarily in tune with their feelings, especially when it comes to relationships. oliver talked about how buck in s1 had feelings he couldn’t understand when he first saw eddie, plus buck thought that him checking guys out meant nothing and it took him over 30 years to figure out he’s bi. we’re seeing now more than ever how eddie’s perception of his relationship with shannon is idealised and ryan even called him delusional (also, its been implied multiple times that he didn’t get married out of love, but did it because it felt like the right thing to do).

neither of them are experts at love and also, comphet is very much a thing. especially if you have yet to come to terms with your sexuality, comphet will make you rationalise any feelings or attractions you might have for anyone you’re not supposed to.

you don’t have to ship buddie, but some people are trying so hard to prove it could never go canon that they’re denying experiences queer people irl go through and it’s just weird.

Thinking about how Buck's jealousy was misplaced and he was actually looking for Eddie's attention and how maybe Eddie's breakdown about his partner's death wasn't all about Shannon but about Buck too (3 minutes and 17 seconds).

[williexmercer]

Headcanon that Chris has Buck watch Paw Patrol and Buck becomes obsessed with it. While he’s recovering from injuries he watches the show.

He sends a photo of Chase to Athena and Carlos with “this you?”

All fellow firefighters get a photo of Marshall. Buck adds glasses to him before the photo is sent to Hen.

After a bit of dating Tommy, one morning Tommy gets a photo of Skye with Buck saying “saw you on the tv earlier”

People who are saying now is not the time for Buck and Eddie to get together, I think that's wrong.

Now, would have been the perfect time.

IF TIM MINEAR DIDN'T COME AND RETCONNED 6 SEASONS OF CHARACTERS DEVELOPMENT!

Eddie was post therapy, he was happier, he was ready for whatever was coming next, at first with Buck until he slapped him in the face with that "I feel like she sees me" crap line.

And Buck would have gone through his own process, of dealing with his death and discovering his sexuality, and S7 finale would have been THE TIME to get it right and step in the buddie direction.

What happened though was more like this - Here's male Abby, he will see Buck as a sex object and not make much effort, because like Abby he just wants someone to wear his sexy underwear for and get down and dirty even though Buck has not even officially popped his gay cherry (I am astonished it hasn't even been discussed or researched on the show yet, but he's having dinner at the loft with T and get a daddy joke while trying to be serious and vulnerable.)

And on the Eddie front was more like - Here's Ana 2.0 - she will be a wall flower and kinda get cheated on by the blonde ghost of his ex-wife. She will be gone with no explanation, because she didn't mean anything to begin with other than be a hand bag for a while and then blonde Shannon will haunt Eddie for real against his will and cause a tear between him and his son as dessert for an already terrible season.

So no, it's not true that now is not the time for them to get together, because the only time either Buck or Eddie made sense and felt like a familiar echoes of themselves is when they were together playing off each other.

"Do what you always do."

Eddie doesn't need therapy, we just need to wake up from this nightmare and reset back to the end of S6.

Eddie: Buck, you sold me out behind my back

Buck: No! It’s just that sometimes you can get a little intense. And I feel like I need to swoop in to let Chris know he’s still loved

Eddie: I could kick you

He's always serving absolute face ...

[thetangycheesemanwithaplan]

Buck: All due respect, I love you

Eddie: Don't you dare say what you're about to say

Buck: You know you're not my type, Eds

Eddie: Well you're not my type either bitch

Buck: Wait, how the fuck am I not your type?

Eddie: Because I like them a little more rugged than you

Buck: I'm rugged

Eddie: You're not really

Buck: I'm so rugged

Eddie: You're not rugged

Buck: I'm very rugged

Eddie: Look at you, you're not rugged

Buck: How am I not rugged?

Eddie: Because-

Buck: 'Cause I'm not wearing a fucking flannel in 80° weather you stupid dumb idiot

Eddie: Yeah, but look at you now, you're too angry too. You fly off the handle, I don't like that

Buck: That's a very rugged thing to do

Eddie: No it's no- "wheeze*

Buck: Is it not rugged for you?

Eddie: No it's not

Buck: No?

Eddie: You can never be what I need Buck

Buck: I think I could be exactly what you need

Eddie: That's what you think. You don't even want me!

Buck: I don't want you

Eddie: So why do you need me to have you?!

Buck: But I want you to want me

Buck and Eddie singing in unison: I want you to want me. I need you to need me
