[defective-4068]

I just read a bucktommy fic that made me low key ship Eddie Diaz and Taylor Kelly.

GUYS, WHAT DO I DO?!

(it's a great fic tho... 10/10 would read again)

[redvelvetcupcakes21]

So....who's interested in a EddieTaylor fic with a supportive (but slightly concerned) Bucktommy?

[giallos]

sorry to report that the brainrot got me and i'm writing eddietaylor now

[trialbywombaat]

I actually need more EddieTaylor in my life so 😤😤😤 your Make Me Write game!

I don't know what it is about this pairing that's invaded my brain*, but ever since that EddieTaylor fic got published a couple of months ago I can't see Eddie with anyone else now 😂

No one at the 118 was unnattractive. They were all firefighters, after all. Buck has always been her favourite - or had been, before they'd broken up. She's always been drawn to the golden boys, the ones with puppy dog energy and sunshine smiles. And those were the ones who always seem drawn to her too; the ones who have the patience to put up with her personality, at least for a little while. But there's no denying that Eddie Diaz is a catch. Objectively, he might even be hotter than Buck. His hair is perfeclty imperfect, celebrity dishevelled with dark strands falling down over his forehead, strands that she can just imagine reaching out for, to brush away. She could let her fingers linger, soft against the skin behind his ears, and maybe their eyes would meet and he'd falter for a second before looking away, thinking about his friendship with Buck and how nothing could happen between them...

*Actually I could have a pretty good guess, but that would be a long and rambling essay. Maybe another time.

Happy New Year!

Wishing You An Amazing 2024!

i want taylor back specifically for a gerrard and councilwoman takedown plot where she teams up with eddie and bobby. otherwise michael should come back

[ohithankyou]

in my mind, eddie and taylor are having very hot sex all the time

[eddiespornstache]

Okay okay if they’re going to make Eddie’s endgame relationship with a woman I think it should be Kim. Like it can’t be some perfectly nice perfectly normal AnaMarisol 3.0 it needs to be a woman who is insane that’s the only way you can get me behind straight!Eddie and Kim is the only woman on the show to date who is insane enough

[eddiediazswife]

Lmao they are even writing Eddietaylor just to try make Bucktommy work 😂😂😂😂

seven sentance sunday

decided to scrap inspo saturday (pinterest is not matching my vibe) and share the beginning of a small side project i started to help my creative juices. an anon on my main account and i were discussing the potential of eddietaylor, and since i’ve been reading bad behavior by mary gaitskill, i just really wanted to tackle a raunchy torrid affair

In the two years before that night, Eddie had only seen her on television. She spoke in that flat reporter voice, her puggish face turned up at the camera in boredom. He could never shake the sense of guilt when she came up on his TV screen, like a pornographic pop-up virus appearing suddenly on his computer. Still, he felt a morbid fascination towards her. Her long, red hair was always sprayed down into firm waves around her shoulders, and her dry-cleaned clothes clung smoothly to her body, bright jewel tones that popped on camera and warmed her complexion. All that skin— he’d heard so many stories, but none that matched the neatly buttoned woman on his television. Sometimes Eddie pictured a meteor crashing into her, her perfect skull spilling onto the concrete, dripping secrets. Taylor Kelly, unspooled live on the national news. What poured out of her might not even be red.

Had another idea. They really need to stop popping up in my head tbh because I am giving them outlet by writing them out rather than actually forming the story. I'm trying to finish Dragon Chosen so I can get back to my book. Anyway...

This is Bucktommy but, go on this journey with me. So Buck and Eddie get married for some reason. Maybe Buck is Canadian or from the UK (hello Oliver's British accent) and needs to get married to stay in the US. Or there's an inheritance that requires marriage. Or they both gave up on dating and decided to just be in a queer platonic relationship even though they both swear that they are straight. They get married for the benefits and maybe Chris. Eddie may very well be straight...I personally read him as demi...this man lays somewhere in the ace spectrum.

Enter Tommy. They meet either in the same way as canon or some other way and hit it off because of course they do. Tons of flirting and Buck being obsessed with Tommy. Tommy somehow finds out about Buck and Eddie being married so he feels guilty for flirting with Buck and is confused about Buck flirting back because he's not a homewrecker so he kinda takes a step back.

Meanwhile Eddie has to hear about things from Buck and is totally encouraging Buck to go for it and explore things with Tommy and maybe he's even questioning Buck's reasons for marrying him. Because if Buck is into guys, maybe he's been into Eddie this whole time and Eddie finds that strange because again not gay/bi...but also he may kinda start wondering if maybe he and Buck could be that way. Maybe he even tries to kiss Buck or something and neither is very into it.

Recipe for a lot of misunderstandings and just Buck being extremely chaotic because Tommy will have to deal with "you're married to a man and thought you were straight this whole time" and also how he probably convinces himself that Buck must be in love with Eddie otherwise why get married and also just the way that Buck and Eddie are together and how everyone assumes they're a couple.

And maybe Buck gets hurt and Tommy can't get in to see him because he's not family...but Eddie can and it's a whole mess that makes Tommy feel like he's really outside looking in.

That is all I got...obviously a happy ending and it could even turn buddietommy though I personally just envision Eddie finding his happiness in figuring himself out rather than in leaning into finding Chris a mom. Hell...after my last fic eddietaylor wouldn't be the worst thing.

*whispers* Tell me your EddieTaylor thoughts...

*whispers* shhhhh don't let them hear us...

(THIS IS ALL A LIGHTHEARTED JOKE NONE OF IT IS REAL TAYLOR KELLY CAN'T HURT YOU. this is just a crackship. stay safe y'all.)

It's not that Eddie isn't happy for Buck. He loves Tommy, and he loves them together. Still, he can't help but feel (selfishly) like this couldn't have come at a worse time. These days, Buck's all aglow. He's got that new relationship buzz— when he isn't with Tommy, he's texting Tommy, or wearing that dopey Tommy Smile. Eddie's glad to see him so smitten, but his absence lately has only made Eddie's house feel that much more empty. The Chris-shaped hole in his life came as a matching set, with a similar hole filling Buck's usual seat on his sofa. Eddie can hardly bear going home to his empty house after work. He's been spending more time than usual lately skulking around their usual badge-and-ladder bar, nursing his heartbreak.

He runs into Taylor one night by pure coincidence. She's always had a way of grinding at him, even before she was dating Buck. But the company is nice. They get catching up, exchanging grievances and gossiping about Buck's love life. Eddie never noticed it before, but he and Taylor have the same sense of humor: wry and cutting, sarcastic in a way that might sound mean-spirited to the wrong person. He knows he's meant to hate her, and he does. He knows she's not a good person— but really, is he any better? Lately it seems like everything Eddie touches falls apart. And he's so tired of wallowing. Maybe, just once, he can let himself be selfish.

Okay, twice. Except now he's calling her after his shift, and she's staying the night after they fuck. He gets out of the shower and there she is, in his bed, wearing an old t-shirt she pulled out of Eddie's dresser. (Does she know that one's actually Buck's?) Eddie knows that it's wrong— and only gets more wrong the longer they sneak around behind Buck's back. And maybe she's horrible, but Eddie might just be horrible too. How else can he explain how good it feels? Not just the sex, but Taylor. He's so used to nice, pious girls like Ana and Marisol. But Taylor isn't afraid of putting Eddie in his place. She's arrogant and difficult, and things with her burn hot in a way Eddie hasn't felt since Shannon. Every time Eddie thinks he's ready to give her up for good, she finds a way to draw him back in.

The team all think he's lost it for good this time, and maybe he has. Even Bobby, who's always been happy to give out second (and third) chances, worries about what this is going to do to Buck. What no one expects is for him to be so calm when he finds out. Honestly, it's a little suspicious. Sure, he's hurt at first, but he tells Eddie with a tearful smile that he deserves to be happy. And maybe Eddie takes the win too willingly, maybe he chooses to ignore the way Buck's smile doesn't reach his eyes or the way his shoulders sag. Because it's them, right? When has a girl ever come between them? And besides— Buck has Tommy.

No one is more shocked than Eddie at how well this is working. He keeps waiting for the other shoe to drop, and it just... doesn't. Taylor plays nice on double dates with Buck and Tommy, keeping her jabs lighthearted. Tommy thinks she's hilarious. Taylor comes to barbecues with the 118 and does her best to make amends— she's done trolling for stories, thanks to the success of her book. It really is an awful feeling, she says, to get everything you've ever wanted, all the success in the world, and realize just how many people you screwed over to get it. She even tries to sit down with Buck, but it's hard to get a read on him these days. Taylor thinks she may have loved him once, but she never really respected him. He's all fluff, not like Eddie. So, really, it's better this way. She admits, a little ruefully, that she still wears the bracelet he got her sometimes. At least his taste wasn't awful.

Everything comes to a head during a shift, when the 118 arrives at the scene of a collapsed building, and Buck gets a strange notification on his phone: a GPS ping from Taylor's bracelet, coming from underneath the rubble. Eddie thinks of Shannon in that intersection, and how he couldn't save her. He's spent so long just letting things happen to him, dragging himself from one day to the next. But Taylor, and the rush Eddie gets when he's with her— Eddie chose that, and he's not going to let her go without a fight. But he can't save her without Buck's help.

For so long, Buck's tied himself in knots wondering why he wasn't enough for Taylor, how she could hurt him so easily. But now, watching Eddie stroke her bloody hair in the back of the ambulance, he thinks he understands, or at least is ready to accept it. Maybe this is just how the universe meant for things to happen. And who is he to complain? Buck has Tommy, now. However Taylor hurt him is irrelevant, when he gets to go home to someone who loves him the way he needs to be loved. And if Eddie feels with Taylor even a fraction as good as Buck feels with Tommy, then it'll all be worth it.

And you know what? Eddie does. And it is.

this whole idea started as a joke but, after however many words this is, i don't know if i can call it a joke. eddie's spent so long doing what he thinks he has to do (as a father, as a man) i honestly just want to see him do something selfish. i want to see eddie follow his heart (and his dick) instead of his gut, and to really put himself at risk of being hurt in a way he hasn't with any of his recent girlfriends.

and of course, there's the buck of it all. the first thing eddie and taylor have in common is buck, and he hangs over their relationship in a way that eddie probably would not like to examine too closely. buck's always going to be the elephant in every room, as far as eddie's narrative is concerned. this is that cranked up to eleven. is he doing it to feel close to buck? is he doing it to spite him? is he trying to chase buck away or draw him in? i don't know. i don't think eddie knows.

(ending this post with another reminder that none of this is real or has any bearing on the real world. resist the urge to reply with an essay about why this would never happen and eddie would never do this to buck. i know it would never happen. this is pure crack.)

[ohithankyou]

eddietaylor would be 10x more interesting and fun to watch than buddie going canon

josie you’re starting off with a bang i see 👀 !!!! listen, eddietaylor would be soooooo hot. the enemies with benefits to friends with benefits to lovers storyline they’d have would be so good and i’d eat up every moment of it. kinda wish they brought taylor in for eddie and not buck to begin with, or at least, the second time around. ughhhh
