crying rn cus why is the eddie in el paso arc just showing the audience how much of eddie’s partner buck really is outside of work LMFAO like oh u think these two are just coworkers? LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER!!! he’s supporting eddie reestablishing his relationship with chris. he’s supporting eddie while he’s in hell with his parents. evan ‘words of affirmation’ buckley is the glue holding eddie diaz together in texas rn.

The fact that “alright cowboy, go get ‘em” were almost Eddie’s last words to Buck makes me feel insane

something something about tommy only ever calling buck "buck" during their break up scene and instead using evan while together ... when "buck" is very much what the people who know and love buck call him... as if tommy only realizes who buck is at the end (by seeing the way its gonna end or whatever the fuck he said)

there's also a small (prob unintentional) parallel to how ana called eddie "edmundo" when both ana and tommy are significant "firsts" for buddie respectively (first gf after losing shannon/getting back out there, first bf sexuality revelation) ... both of those relationships ending because buddie "isn't ready" and there being something Not Right about the relationship and where it could go ... this is partly conveyed by the "Technically Yeah But That's Not Their Name" name being used by the ex.

anyways! in conclusion something something preferred names something something to be loved is to be known

S04E05: Buck Begins // S04E14: Survivors

The fact there has been such an emphasis on lies and fakeness and duality and not seeing things for what they are this season doe make me feel like this is a fakeout of some description!

Fake fbi agents, a fake skeleton that was real, all Eddie’s lying stuff, Buck using ‘fakeman’ as a surname, hotshots - a fake show about firefighters, Maddies kidnapping being made to look like she’d left and amber creating a fake killer etc etc etc!

It’s all feeling like this is another fake thing - the biggest one - for the larger plot - they always leave lots of clues in canon across a season and this feels no different.

and when we finally get eddie standing up to ramon about pressuring chris into being the perfect-winner-chess-prodigy what then.

and when we have him comforting christopher in the bathroom and he tells chris he can do things just to do them, just because they're joyous, without necessarily being good or being the best at them—that he doesn’t have to do anything he doesn’t want to do, or that doesn’t bring him joy—what then

You know what, actually?

It is GOOD that they didn't take Buck off the hamster wheel for his first queer relationship.

To do so would have implied that the only thing he was missing was his sexuality, and not only was that clearly never the story they were telling with him, but also I don't actually think it would be great representation to imply that figuring out your sexuality is the thing that will solve all your deep-seated self worth and abandonment issues.

This has most definitely been said before, but we were robbed of the core four quarantining on-screen together at Buck’s place. ROBBED I say

By itself, Eddie putting Buck in his will is not inherently a sign of romantic feelings. It’s absolutely normal to choose your best friend to take care of your kid if you don’t want your parents to do it. I wouldn’t be surprised if Chim would get custody of Denny and Mara if something happened to Hen and Karen, especially after the Hans fostered Mara.

Indeed, a lot of actions could be either romantic or platonic depending on the context and intention behind them. And that’s the key. Because for Hen and Chim, it would be her and Karen jointly trusting one of their best friends to love their kids. The feelings there are strong but they’re platonic, and Karen is still Hen’s romantic partner and parenting partner in all this.

For Eddie, the will scene is Eddie giving Buck more than he even gave Shannon, the alleged love of Eddie’s life. Shannon felt that Eddie never had her back; Eddie has had Buck’s back for years and he has it again in the will scene by ensuring Buck doesn’t linger on feeling expendable (the only reason Eddie tells him about it). Eddie struggled to trust Shannon with Chris again; Eddie trusts Buck without any doubt, so much that he knew Buck would accept custody regardless, and Shannon had only been dead six months when Eddie first said there’s no one in the world he’d trust with Chris more than Buck.

In a way, Eddie asking Buck to coparent with Chris sometimes is like Eddie is having Buck fill a role Shannon left behind…but not quite, because Eddie trusts and cares for Buck in a way he didn’t with Shannon. That’s why putting Buck in the will could have been platonic, but it isn’t.

all i'm saying

[screaming-universe]

cool. seems like there now is also a fanfic that pretends to be eddietommy and is utterly disgusting, without any warning. So don't click on any fics written by anonymous I guess and ignore it and be careful
