i know tommy is a tertiary character or whatever but after rewatching all the begins i desperately want to hear him talk more about that time at the 118 from his perspective. i want to know if he was afraid! i want to know if he wasn’t! how much did he know about himself by then, an inkling? nothing at all? all of it?? i want to know about his guilt and bridging the gap to friendship and if having made amends back then feels any different now that he isn’t hiding anymore…

#AND I KNOW WE PROBABLY WONT!! there aren’t enough minutes in an episode and they’re not going to spend development time on #a character who isn’t main cast #but i want to KNOW!!!#they were all friendly by the end of his time at the 118 #he was a lot worse when chimney started #but he does become the first one after eli to get extend an olive branch and bring Chim into the fold #and he makes A comment with hen but even that could be read as a poorly landed joke at east coasters not at hen #especially recontextualizing shots of him when hen takes her stand #like! i want to know! with this new information abt him. what was going thru his head #the quick shots of him looking vaguely shamed and nervous… with new context… MAN #they really struck gold on accident dude i still can’t believe how much shit lined up UNINTENTIONALLY #like. wasn’t the ‘you don’t find it son you make it’ guy named thomas #Buck’s life being defined by multiple gay men named tom #anyways. I haven’t felt normal in weeks #iinryer post
