#Helena diaz bashing

[meowdy-all]

Guys, i need HELP finding a fici read recently about Chris being gone to texas, and eddies reaction to it. Chris never texts or calls, and eddie comes to a realization that he's not coming back and tries to end it, and doesn't succeed several times. The one i remember the most is eddie being alone on New years, drinking 2 bottles of wine, and having bucks pain pills. Later on in the story, they get called to a 5 alarm fire, and eddie texts chris his final words because 'he just had to make it look like an accident'. Eddie thinks about going through with it in the fire, but at the last second, he decides against it because Buck is there. A beam galls anyway, and eddie falls through the hole in the floor. Helena and chris are in a store, and helena has had chris' phone the entire time making sure eddie can't contact chris. She reads the message, goes into shock, and chris grabs his phone and goes into hysterics.

Thats what i remember from it and i cant find it. I only read ot a few days ago bit i wanna read it again so BAD it was such good eddie diaz angst.

From Scorched Earth A Phoenix Rises

happy sunday morning.

Title: From Scorched Earth A Phoenix Rises

Fandom: 911, Hawaii 5-0

Pairings: Evan Buckley/Eddie Diaz, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams

Tags/warnings: (eventual) explicit sex, canon divergence from end of season 7, character bashing (Tommy Kinard, Helena Diaz), child abuse, canon typical violence, sentinel/guide AU, spirit animals, anchors, BuckTommy breakup (this fic is very not friendly to Tommy Kinard), first time, Bad Diaz Parents.

Summary: An anchor, however fragile, can keep even an offline sentinel from manifesting as long as it is maintained. When his anchor is removed, Eddie Diaz enters a deep zone.  Can Buck, a long unattached guide, save his best friend from slipping away?

El Paso, Texas, 1995. 

“Mom, I still don’t feel so good,” Eddie says as he tugs on Mom’s skirt and stumbles into the kitchen. He feels tired, achy, and too hot, but he had a bad dream about the firebird and the blue dragon going away. They’d told him they’d always watch over him, but he woke up looking for them and couldn’t find them. 

“Oh honey, that’s just the medicine kicking in. Do you want some more juice?”

“No!” Eddie shakes his head briskly. He doesn’t want to throw up again. 

“Maybe you need more medicine? The doctor said you might need a second dose,” Mom says, bending down to look him in the eye. She has a slight frown on her face, and Eddie doesn’t like this look. This is the look Mom gets when she’s about to be mean to someone while pretending to be nice. 

“I’m getting better,” Eddie insists despite feeling the room begin to sway around him. 

“We’ll do a second dose,” Mom says, already straightening to get the dark bottle out of the cupboard above the sink that’s too high for Eddie to reach. 

“I don’t want it,” Eddie protests, wanting to cry.

“This will make you feel better, honey. Just you see.”

The bitter taste makes him gag, but Mom doesn’t let him spit it out. Over his sniffles, there’s a fading cry of the firebird screaming in warning.  

He doesn’t see his firebird or her friend, the blue serpent dragon, again until many years later.

Fuck the Diaz parents. What kind of grandparents/parents are you that you feel okay with taking your son’s child away from him? It makes me sick. Eddie does the best he can to be a good dad and HE IS. Yes, he fucked up and this is what Chris wants, and it could be good to give them space, but oh my god, you're not even going to try and help their relationship? Instead, you guilt trip your son, and not show any empathy towards him as he’s clearly struggling mentally. They manipulated and took advantage of a highly emotional situation to take away Chris like they've always wanted and to once again remind Eddie that he was not a good enough father.

But After This I'm Never Going To Be The Same by MoonshineCybin

21k | M | link

"Hey, Eds..." he started, not quite sure how to ask. "Hmm?" Eddie hummed back at him, not even moving from their comfortable position. "Why - why weren't you surprised when I first told you about Tommy?" He felt Eddie's body tense next to his. And when the other man didn't reply he continued, "You were surprised to learn that he was gay, but not about me being bi. Why not?" Eddie shifted, moving over on the couch so that he and Buck were no longer touching, and he then moved even further so that there was a distinct gap between the two of them. Buck turned his head toward Eddie, but the other man was very deliberately still staring at the TV in front of them which was now just a blue screen. He looked... pained? Buck couldn't fathom why his question was causing such a reaction in his best friend. Eddie, still facing away from Buck, closed his eyes tightly. "So we're finally talking about this?" His voice was quiet and thick with emotion. OR Turns out poker night was a date and Buck didn't even know it.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers! Spread the self-love 💞

My five favorite fics?? Hmmm... This was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.

The Pain is UnBEARable (4.7k)

The first Danger Prone Diaz fic I ever wrote and honestly my favorite so far. I had so little confidence in my writing when I posted this and I got so many compliments on the pacing of the story- something I always thought I sucked at- but beyond that I LOVE the whump and humor in this one.

My Life Is Gonnto Be Bee-u-tiful (1.2k)

My dyslexia fic!! It's probably my most favorite alongside the bear trap. I love the sweetness of the fic and how Buck immediately starts trying to help him. I've always wanted to write a sequel, but I haven't got around to it yet.

I Am What I Am Cause You Trained Me (4.9k)

This fic was SO cathartic to write. It took me months to finish, but I am really happy with how it turned out. And not just because of the Helena Diaz bashing! (Though that is a major plus lol). I was stuck on how to include Buck in the matter without making it seem like he was fighting a battle for Eddie instead of with him. I think I did a pretty good job 😊.

Oh What A Way To Die (3.4k)

I know it doesn't have a happy ending, but I'm really proud of the imagery and introspection in this one. I said I was gonna do a part 2, but I think I like this one as is.

Baby, I'm Never Gonna Leave You (11.9k)

The whump in this one!! I'm so proud of it. Another one I fought with for MONTHS, writing and rewriting till I got it where I wanted it. I think besides the whump, the actual mystery involved was so fun to write. Weaving it all together for part 2 though is proving to be just as big of a challenge and I have... 2 weeks? to finish it in time for Spooktober. 😅

[buddiesmutslut]

Hi there ☺️

I LOVED the snippet you just shared for Military Past Witsec

Do you have any more to share for the fic?

Also please add me to the tag list for that fic ☺️

-❤️🪐

I have so much more! It's nearly 35,000 words & I still have a few main points I want to add in, so she's gonna be THICC. I might start doing Snippet Saturdays or whatever they're called so I can share more bc I love this fic SO much. Or, I guess I could just finish writing it and post it, but who knows 😂

Buck scrubs his hands over his face. “Mr. Diaz, I’m sorry that you don’t agree with Eddie’s choices, but I’ve spent the last nearly 3 years following your son’s lead, and I’ve never regretted it. If Eddie decided that I was what he wanted for Chris, then I’m not going to give him up. I wish you would respect that, but if you can’t, then you’re going to have to fight for him, because a court order is the only way I’m walking away from that little boy back there.” 

Helena’s nostrils flare. “You want to drag Chris through a custody case instead of giving him to his family?” She demands, and Buck actually does roll his eyes at her question. 

“Mrs. Diaz, I will not be the one filing for custody, as I already have it. If you decide to do so, then the consequences are on your head, not mine. All I want to do is mourn my best friend and try to give his son the best life possible. That’s my only concern. I’m sorry that you’re hurting, but you’re not the only one who lost Eddie, and if you do this, the only person you’re going to be hurting is your grandson.” He warns, though he knows it’s probably futile. 

Ramon hums again. “Well, that’s our concern too, so I guess we’ll have to see what a judge thinks.” He states decisively.

(Ana is also going to be in here, & she might not be GREAT, but it's not going to be a bashing fic. Eddie introducing her to Chris almost immediately is going to be confusing to everyone involved, but she's genuinely just doing her best. The Diaz parents are not going to be portrayed as very kind though lol)

Diaz Family Dynamics

This comes with the standard warnings of 'hey if you think I'm bashing this character, I'm not' and 'if you don't like my content, you don't have to interact with it because I ain't fighting with people over opinions'. With a single exception. I am absolutely bashing Helena and Ramon Diaz. They're terrible parents and even worse people. my asks are open for questions or conversations!

I also have other thoughts about Eddie, including things involving him and Shannon, and more things about him and his sisters, his traumas, etc. However, I think this post is a little too heavy to share all of those. If you're interested in any of them, let me know. I'll do a separate post for them later regardless, but I'd love to see what people are interested in hearing about.

Trigger warnings: PTSD, talk of child neglect & abuse. It's Eddie Diaz and his family, that's it's own warning.

Let's get the hard stuff out of the way first, shall we? As someone who's been in shoes similar to Eddie and Maddie as oldest sibling who's had to step up and be a parent to their younger siblings, there is no situation where a child is raising another child and it's not because the actual parents are neglectful at best and abusive at worst. The Diaz parents are both. And it's exactly the way you'd think. Helena is shown to be verbally and emotionally abusive to Eddie in the flashbacks we're given during Eddie Begins. She sits back and watches her son, who's a newly single father and still healing from injuries he gained in a war that he ran to in part because of his parents struggle with multiple jobs at once, doctors appointments for himself AND his son, and did nothing to help. Instead, she used the fact that he was struggling as an excuse to ask for custody of Christopher. And considering Eddie grew up with that same style of abuse, that he shielded his sisters from receiving it, too? Yeah, I hope she burns in Hell for it.

And Ramon. Oh, Ramon. He's equally shitty to Eddie when it comes to verbal abuse. He abandoned the family (for work, yes, but what decent father looks at their 10 year old son and tells them it's time to 'man up'?). And no one has a fight style scrappy enough for genuine street fighting, the way Eddie's got, unless it was learned originally in self defense and then refined later on with actual lessons. I'd put money on Ramon having laid hands on Eddie a time or two before he got big enough to fight back. I've seen it, I grew up with kids who have that exact fighting style and that's what it was from. And the way he never turns his back on his father when they do interact? It's a survivor's skill that you learn the hard way.

Also? All of Eddie's doubts about him being a good dad? His worries that he's fucking Christopher up when he's given everything he's got for his son? Those come from his parents, too. He's always tried to make sure he wasn't like either of his parents, but those doubts don't leave very easily when you've spent your whole life not knowing anything else. Helena definitely drilled it in the entire time after Eddie came home from overseas that what he was doing for Christopher's sake wasn't enough. That he wasn't a good enough parent.

I'm also entirely sure that Eddie's lack of skill in cooking stems in part from his childhood. He was the oldest sibling of three, and he was helping raise his sisters. He probably tried to learn to cook by the time he was 12 for their sake but was told no by his mother. They're a Southern family, do you know how much time some boys are allowed to spend in the kitchen when there's daughters around to learn to cook instead? Sure isn't enough to learn anything. And I 100% believe Helena just refused to teach him. He learned how to cook eggs when he was 12, but no one ever taught him anything else until after he moved to LA, where Pepa and Isabel stepped in and tried to teach him. But it's harder to learn to cook in your late 20s when you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders already than it would be when you're a kid. It's just an unfortunate fact that some aspects of toxic masculinity like that are furthered by the mothers here in the American South. Sometimes.

Additionally, Eddie's never considered that he could be anything other than straight (I think he's bisexual but demiromantic, but that's just a headcanon). Again. Welcome to the South. He grew up Catholic. No way in Hell that Ramon didn't threaten to 'beat the gay out of him' the first time he was overheard jokingly flirting with a friend in high school. More families are like that down here than I want to admit. My own included. Just look how quickly Eddie's communication style changes when he realizes something sounds flirty. All those times he's jokingly said something to Buck and then went too serious directly after for no discernible reason? Bet you anything it's that.

He didn't leave despite hating staying with his parents after Shannon left not because he couldn't (Pepa or Isabel would've let them stay until he got a place, I'm sure that's what happened anyway because he packed them up and left on a dime anyway) because he had to make sure his sisters were out of his parents' home first. He'd rather suffer than leave them unprotected from it all.

All three Diaz siblings went no contact eventually. Then Eddie switched to limited contact because he thought Christopher deserved to know his living grandparents after Shannon's death. The only time they all show up is when it's required (like at Ramon's retirement party).

And final comment involving the Diaz parents: Eddie never wanted to marry Shannon. Another unfortunate tradition here in the South that still happens (less frequently, but happens): sometimes the parents force a marriage in the case of an unplanned pregnancy. We've had several in my family. Eddie loved Shannon, yes. But he never would have married her on his own. His parents forced it as soon as they found out Shannon was pregnant. It's part of why their marriage was so toxic, I think.

[oldfangirl81]

Long shot but a friend is looking for a 911 fic.

Odds are it is at minimum pre-Buck/Eddie.

Character Bashing- It deals with the Diaz parents being the WORST. Ramon ends up divorcing Helena and moving to LA. She responds by stabbing him.

I can only think of a couple that might have fit but are Buckley parents instead.
