#fd: the stand

[mania-sama]

okay so i started 9-1-1 because i was feeling left out on this buddie thing. i finished season 1, and i really liked it because of how crazy it was (heavily disagree on hen cheating on her wife because literally what IS that she cares so much about other people and her family she would never).

so i start season 2 tonight and ik this is when eddie gets introduced because i looked it up. and idk what i was expecting but it wasn’t THAT. buck and eddie act like two omegaverse alpha males smelling each other’s competing scents and then barking???

and then 2 episodes later buck is personally driving eddie to go see his son at the school? and looking at him with pure adoration and love?? i honestly thought the fans were on some shit because let’s be honest it’s a FANBASE. it’s a fandom’s job to blow things out of proportions. but even i cannot deny this is INSANE and i owe an apology to all buddie fans for ever doubting you

also. i’ve been pleasantly surprised by how open the show is. i think i was anticipating more of the same as with drama cop/doctor. i’ve seen a few seasons of The Good Doctor, and i honestly thought it was just going to be a cop/firefighter version of that. which it IS but it also isn’t in a lot of vital ways. it’s doing a really good job.

although athena’s husband is throwing me for a loop. one moment i start to like him, and the next i’m seething through my teeth. and i almost LIKE that because it’s not shying away from saying that anybody can be good, and anybody can be bad. anybody go do horrible things with good intent, and anyone can do good things with horrible intent. it’s a step up from other episodic dramas i’ve watched. maybe it’ll bring me to watch others idk.

去年クリアしたゲームのトップ2 ファミコン探偵倶楽部は特に感動した。 嘘じゃないぞ、令和に発売された新作ソフトじゃなく、本当にこの二つが一番面白かった。 しかも、中古だったし、ゼルダがちゃんと動作するように自分で修理もしました :) My two best games of last year Like not actually kidding, brand new releases be damned I think Famicom Detective Club wins by a margin because it’s just the kind of experience that’ll stay with me forever. These was both bought used and the copy of Zelda I repaired myself :)

Is the official Future Diary Website going down?

I don't know if I'm jumping the gun here, in fact, I really hope I'm mistaken, but it looks like Kadokawa might be removing the official Future Diary website.

When you try to access future-diary.tv you get this error message:

Now, an "emergency maintenance" could mean anything, but I find it odd that Kadokawa would randomly decide to update this page. The Future Diary website is so old at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they were gutting it, especially since we haven't had anything new released for this series in many years.

Mind you, that message is actually quite recent. I can attest that the site was up and running up until 2 weeks ago, so time will tell whether my suspicions are right or not. I have a tendency to freak out over stuff like this, to then have it turn out to be a false alarm, so I'm hoping this is one of those times... though I have a bad feeling about this.

Again, I understand the website is old, but I really, really would hate to see it go. It holds so much information about the merchandising and history of the show... it's my main source of information when researching all the topics I bring up on my page. Thankfully, the site appears to be well preserved on the Internet Archive, but no amount of snapshots on the Wayback Machine could fix my broken heart.

"I don't know, and I don't care."

Yeah, I mean, I'm always on the verge of tears and raising my voice when I'm talking about things about which I don't care too.

I truly want Eddie and Buck to fight.

Mainly because I have wanted Buck to blow up at someone from the 118 for years. I get that apparently there were off-screen apologies but the way every single member treated Buck when he got a lawyer, the way everyone has dismissed Buck's trauma before that, the way Buck was literally punshed by Chim, the way Buck's has (nearly) died multiple times and the trauma of that is never really acknowledged, the way Buck was sexually assaulted and everyone joked about it, the way Buck has had so much shit just put on him unknowingly sometimes by them, yes, I want Buck to snap.

I want Buck to finally stand up to someone and tell them that it's not okay, that what he went through wasn't okay and that he needed his family with him when they weren't.

I need Buck to finally see "I deserved better" and have someone show him he deserves better (aka Tommy.)

I need someone to finally be in Buck's corner, to tell him that what he went through wasn't okay and that he doesn't need to get over it because you just don't get over some traumas.

I need Buck to finally have a moment where he is allowed to be angry, where he is allowed to feel his emotions, where he is allowed to hurt and someone is immediately there to catch him, to be beside him.

I need Buck to finally be allowed to be proud of his work, to finally understand how much he has done as a firefighter when he didn't even have to, to understand that he can be more, that he is allowed to want more.

I need Buck to finally be allowed to go on a pathway up the FD ladder because he deserves it, he has earned himself the opportunity to get a chance to prove himself.

I need this season to finally lay the groundwork to Buck's full potential as a character, as a love interest, as firefighter. I need this to be the start of his true growth where he is finally allowed to want things and to get the things, the happy ending, that he always wanted for himself.

I need this to be a turning point for Buck where we finally see him settle into himself and I truly believe that for that to start he needs to let go of some unspoken things, he needs to be allowed to feel and to be angry at his family without knowing if he will have support.

And I need Buck to be the one to finally make Eddie realise how incredibly toxic and dangerous his behaviour is because no one else will probably get through to him. I also need Buck to understand that healing Eddie, that helping Eddie, can only go so far and that this is something that he can't fix because it's not his to fix.

I need Buck, the one person who always wants to help, who does everything to help, who will do anything to try to fix something, I need that Buck to be held and to be told that not everyone can accept his help. I need that Buck to be loved while someone tells him that Buck matters too, that Buck can not destroy himself for someone who might not even be ready to heal. I need Evan, the kid who always felt like something was wrong and that he had to make up for it, to be looked at and to be promised that he is enough, that just being him is enough and that he doesn't need to be more than that.

And yeah, if I think that Tommy can do that, then yeah, I need Tommy to be there while Buck is slowly realising that he matters too, that he deserves to be happy too.

Can I ask for FD Warriors or Sky post battle making sure Reader is ok?

Why not both?! :D

Masterlist

Content under the cut!

Warrior

He was furious.

The power coursing through his veins was intoxicating and compelling in the mortal sense of divinity.

This was a drug and the purest sense of invincibility.

Rage and fierce devotion were his only companions as it stands. They fought in the confines of his mind for control. He could keep fighting. He could continue to end the enemies that stood between his loved ones and their safety.

But the threat was no more.

Gingerly, he puts his sword away. He feels as if he is shaking.

The boys all come to him, asking his questions and attempting to get his attention to dullness of their reality. But that's currently none of his concern.

Warrior takes a deep breath, patting his brothers on the shoulders before he stalks his way through the camp.

He stops right in front of you and puts his hands on his hips. You were injured and bleeding. "you're hurt."

"I'm fine." You gasp as you attempt to shift out of your position.

Warrior shakes his head. Without prompting and without warning, he begins to tend to the gash on your arm.

"Warrior please-"

"silence."

You shut up.

Warrior takes the bandage and wraps it tightly around your bicep, not wanting it to get worse. He grits his teeth and clenches his jaw, willing himself with sheer force of will alone to keep his hands gentle.

The others wait on baited breath to see what he will do next. They are also paying extra attention to your own reactions, wanting to see how you fare dealing with the one who had donned the mask.

He finished fairly quickly and scowls at the bandage.

"It didn't insult your heritage." You say softly, taking your arm away. "Stop it."

Warrior raises an eyebrow, taking off the mask with little fan fare. He seems unbothered by the power that is sucked away from him and sealed with the wooden mask once more.

"You got hurt."

"It'll heal."

"I told you to stick to the plan."

"I'm aware that the group had elected a decision, but given that it was a stupid decision, I've elected to ignore it." You snarl back, turning away form him. You stand up in indignation and begin to storm away.

You pause and sigh in defeat before you could even take the first step.

"Thank you.... for saving my life."

"Always."

Sky

That was it. It was over. The power of gods was no longer needed.

He sighs and puts the familiar (?) weight of his sword on his back. This power was strange but not entirely foreign. Somewhere in the back of his mind he knew how to use it and how to call it forth to use for his own benefit.

How fortunate, he thinks to himself for a moment, that he is not a god, nor is he on a rampage for vengence.

He feels invincible.

He looks over the carnage and walks through the fallen bodies with the same casualness as if he was on a mere Sunday stroll.

The others stare at him with varying degrees of shock and awe as he gets closer to them. They are not who he's after though. There's a specific person that eh wants to check up on and there currently no where to be found.

If he was a lesser man, he would have panicked, but with this form, he knew better. There was no voice telling him here to go. Sky has no idea why he seemed to know where he was going, but he wasn't about to question the force behind his actions.

He had saved the day by listening to them, hadn't he?

"Oh for the love of-! Sweet blueberry pie." You shout and fall silent suddenly at the sight of him. You step back, putting a hand over your fragile heart.

Sky takes a knee, putting his sword in front of him with his opposite hand. "Are you harmed, Beloved?"

You push yourself against a tree. You had attempted to create more space between you and his other worldly figure, but had only figuratively trapped yourself. You're silent. Jaw dropped and eyes widen, you find it in yourself to shake your head.

You're unharmed.

Good, Sky takes in a breath. His rather drastic attempt of turning the tides on the battle field had not been in vain.

He stands.

You slide down the bark of the tree, staring at him with an unreadable expression on your face. Sky doesn't think it's fear, but you've certainly reverted to a primitive sort of reaction.

Sky shakes his head. The call to the power is alluring and smooth. Soft and inviting.

A softer, almost imperceptivity softer curse leaves your lips.

Sky takes off the mask and wobbles on his legs for a moment. He takes a knee again, but not out of a sign of respect this time.

He's heaving.

"...Ow..." He raises his head, panting harshly. "...I'm not doing that again."

You hold your breath as the concrete crumbles just a little more in your apartment. The foundation will collapse soon and there’s no way you’re gonna be able to make it out of this 5 story building without dying.

Fucking Gotham. Fucking rogues. You should’ve moved to Central or something.

Your quiet wheezes continue to be muffled by the creaking of metal. You squeeze your eyes shut. If this is where you die, you don't want to watch.

Tapping. Feather light footsteps.

"-civilian. Yes, I'll bring them down to the ground."

Robin.

You open your eyes and sure enough, in traffic light colours, is the current Robin crouched by your window.

"Hey," they greet.

"You came."

"Of course. Let's get you out of here, shall we?"

Easier than you expected, they gather you into their embrace as you wrap your arms around their neck.

"Hold on tight." Their warm breath fans across your cheeks.

Robin aims, shoots their grappling hook, and the two of you fly into the night, towards safety.

Gotham's aristocracy holds too many galas in your opinion. If not for work, you wouldn't be here at all.

You glance around the ballroom where the decorations have been set up. The guests are due to arrive soon which means you need to leave before they see you. As you scurry towards an exit, your foot catches on a crease in the stupid expensive carpet and-

“Careful,” (Y/n) Drake says with a smile, her arm around your waist, catching you mid-fall.

Her dress is beautiful as always. Gems dangle from her ears and neck and wrists. They glimmer beneath the light of the chandelier alongside her glossy lips.

"Ah...um," you flounder as she helps you stand upright again. "Thank- Thank you."

She brushes a strand of hair away from your face and tucks it behind your ear. Her other hand rests innocently on the curve of your hip. You flush and resist the urge to squirm.

"Not a problem." She steps away. "Be careful, wouldn't want any more accident, hm?"

And then she glides away, thousand dollar heels clicking against the polished wooden floors. You think you can feel the heat still rising to your cheeks.

Gotham’s sweetheart indeed.
