#my hero bobby nash

Entropy

“A transfer?” Bobby said, incredulously.

“Yeah..” Tommy confirmed, feigning nonchalance. “I, uh. I used to fly a little.. back in the army, and.. I kind of miss it, I guess.”

“Really?” Bobby asked skeptically, searching Tommy through narrowed eyes as if he was keeping his real reasons in a secret pocket somewhere.

Tommy nodded. Not making eye contact.

“Listen, Tommy. I know me coming here was a big change. And Deluca leaving.. really shook the team up.”

“It’s nothing you did, Captain Nash. I actually agreed with your decision with Sal. I.. I’ve agreed with every decision you’ve made for this house.”

“So you support my leadership, have built a healthy connection with your team, and are.. frankly, thriving here, and.. You still feel the need to uproot yourself?”

Tommy’s jaw tightened. But he nodded. “I guess I always knew I wasn’t going to stay here forever.. And, I feel like you’re gonna find better people to fill out this crew. I mean, I get that you’re not trying to actively recruit them now.. but.. you’ll find them.”

Bobby didn’t know what to say.

“You know that you’re a part of this, right? I see the future of the 118, and I see you in it. I don’t think of you as.. being on the outside in any way, Tommy.”

Bobby watched as a whole fleet of emotions tore through Tommy’s silence.

“I believe you that you think that, Cap. But.. I.. don’t.”

“Oh..” Bobby said, trying not to feel like he’d been punched in the gut. “I am sorry to hear that, Tommy. I didn’t realize..”

“Again, it’s nothing that you did. I appreciate the way that everyone has accepted me as part of this.. ‘New 118’, and believe me.. It’s a hell of a lot better than the old one. I just can’t help feeling like..” Tommy shook his head. “This is a great house, it’s just not my house.”

But it could be! Bobby wanted to say.

But he recognized the look in Tommy’s eyes. He recognized it like looking in a mirror. The feeling that when things were getting too good, you had to get out before it all collapsed on top of you..

He wanted to tell Tommy that it was okay to let things be better. To let people in and allow them to help you to hold up the good things, so that they wouldn’t necessarily tend toward collapse over time.

If he, Chim, and Hen all wanted Tommy on their team - Tommy should trust that, and not just.. remove himself because - for whatever reason - he didn’t feel that he deserved something nice, and warm, and stable, and.. healthy.

But Bobby was not capable of giving that speech.

Not when he himself didn’t believe it.

He knew his time with the 118 was numbered as well. His eyes subconsciously flicker to his little black book.

“I understand why you feel like you need to move on,” Bobby said, even if he didn’t fully understand, he understood enough. “Just know, this is not what we would have chosen. I wish you the best at the 217. It truly is our loss.”

"Please," the vigilante speaks again, tearing Bobby's eyes away from the wound and back to his mask. "No hospitals." And, fuck, Bobby can't say no to him. It'll—it'll be okay. "Okay," he says, and he's surprised at how steady his voice is. "No hospitals. But you can't pass out on me now, okay? I need to go to the bathroom to grab supplies. You have to stay awake." - Or, Buck gets shot and the only person he trusts enough to go to is Bobby. That, however, does not mean that Bobby knows who he is.

ooh for the doodle asks: bobby nash and “second chances” by gregory alan isakov

All of my heroes sit up straight

They stare at the ground

They radiate

Me, I'm mumbling in the kitchen for the sun to pay up

[aunmenosheteroenespanol]

Bobby Nash + David Kushner Burn

[loufuckers]

had this one dancing around my brain for a minute before deciding i'm probably never writing it so i'm releasing it into the world in case it sparks something in someone lol

bucktommy actor au

evan "buck" buckley is an up-and-coming actor. he's been acting since he was 18 in minor roles in tv shows and movies but finally gets his big break at 26 when he lands a supporting role in a cowboy comedy where he plays a character named "buckaroo" which earns him his nickname. after that he starts getting typecast as eye candy and comic relief even though he knows he can do serious work until he manages to get signed to 118 MGMT and his new agent, bobby nash, lands him a role in a serious queer drama. this is the opportunity buck has been waiting for his entire career

the only problem? his co-star is no other than tommy kinard, famous action hero actor better known for playing a superhero in a blockbuster franchise before he decided to leave the franchise to start making more serious, critically acclaimed movies (and who came out as gay not that long ago, taking the entire industry by surprise); whom buck might or might not have a huge crush on since he first saw him shirtless, all those muscles out in display in all their oiled glory, in some cop action film when he was a teenager

and everything would be okay if tommy was anything like the rumour mill says he is (offhand-ish, kind of an asshole, too self absorbed) but buck quickly finds out during pre-production that he's actually nothing like that. he's sweet, and kind, and a huge dork. he's got a dry, deadpan sense of humour that may come out as overly sarcastic and rude to some but buck understands perfectly. and he's so nice to buck, always checking up on him in between takes for the more emotional scenes and sharing his acting tips with him. when they have to shoot the sex scene tommy has a 30 minute conversation with buck about boundaries and how he doesn't want to do anything that would make buck uncomfortable, how buck feeling safe is tommy's top priority because as an older, more experienced actor this is old news to him but this is buck's first time shooting something like this and he just wants to make it as comfortable as possible for him

so now buck inevitably falls in love in between shooting, hanging out at each others' trailers, and their dinners that initially were to know each other better before the movie started filming and then became a regular occurrence because they like hanging out with each other. and now buck has to figure out a way to not break his own heart when the filming ends because tommy certainly can't feel the same way and he doesn't think he would be able to get over him before the promo and press cycles begin, especially when all everyone talks about is the chemistry between them

(unbeknownst to him, tommy is having a similar internal battle, berating himself for falling in love with his younger co-star who clearly only sees him as a friend and a mentor)

it all gets resolved at the movie premiere when buck confesses his feelings to tommy during a fit of jealousy over tommy's date. tommy kisses him about it for a long time before revealing that his date is actually his very straight best friend and assistant.

New predictions for 8x01-03

Warning that this is just speculation. I don’t have anything more than an active imagination.

The first episode is all about the bees. We probably aren’t going to see much off the other members of the fire fam except for the active members of the 118, going from 🐝 emergency to 🐝 emergency. Gerrard is going to be a douche, focusing on Buck who’s very much “You’re not my dad!”ing, much to the consternation to the other members of the 118, especially Eddie who wants Buck to “suck it up,” and follow orders. At some point Gerr-ass is going to bench Buck. Towards the end of the episode we’re going to get a cliffhanger of Athena, calling a Mayday, and the other voice on the radio is one Tommy Kinard.

The second episode is backed up a little bit. We discover what Bobby is doing, Athena and Bobby are looking for a house, and then Athena gets a call to assist in a prisoner transport. But bees got into the cock pit and of course Athena is the only one to be able to fix it. With the aid of firefighter pilot extraordinaire, Tommy Kinard, in her ear; the insubordinate Evan “Buck” Buckley disobeying direct orders, and Bobby Nash stealing “Hotshots” property, they rally enough houses to be able to handle the inevitable MCE that’s going to happen.

The third episode is the cumulation of all the events. There is a ton of units there at the site of the emergency landing of this airplane, the 118 being there because they were summoned by Simpson, which makes Gerrard look bad. The emergency wraps up and the firefighters return to their stations, Buck going back with the 118. Gerrard wastes no time tearing into Buck, being witnessed by Simpson, who had showed up to commend him for his quick thinking. Gerrard is so worked up that he manages to give himself a heart attack. Everyone goes home, Buck going, not to the loft, but to Tommy’s. In an echo of s5, Buck turns on the TV to see Tommy on the screen, being lauded as a hero for the events of the day. He says, “Hi honey,” to the screen, and then an answering “Hi,” comes from the next room.

Hi I was wondering do you write for Bobby Nash? If you do, I wondering if you can do something like the whole 118 (including reader) surprising Bobby with Father’s Day gifts and tho him a little party. If you don’t mind writing a little late Father’s Day special.

I think it would very cute bc we can all agree that Bobby is the Father of the 118 crew, and I feel like he needs to be appreciated more :)

I hope ur doing well and keep it up with the good writing, I love all of your fics ❤️

kids - b.n

summary: request :)

bobby nash x platonic!reader x the 118 being his children fr

a/n: i’m a little late to the father’s day game… but i hope you all had a wonderful day and i hope you checked up on those who might not be as fortunate that day <3 enjoy ml, thank you for this sweet request!

y/n had caught bobby just getting off the engine after a call, practically appearing out of nowhere to grab him. she brought him away and up the stairs, leading him to the kitchen.

when bobby walked in, everyone had been in there with small wrapped presents and gift bags. bobby shook his head, “what is all this, guys?”

“happy father’s day!” buck yells, blowing a little party horn as he pushes the gift closer to bobby.

everyone at the station considered bobby as their non-biological father. not a single day went by where bobby wasn’t by their side. he was their captain, but also their friend. bobby fought alongside all of them and they all fought his battles for him. he never imagined that he would have all these people who loved him after what happened. he carried crushing guilt and was prepared to leave it all behind, making it impossible to open up. everyone at the firehouse saved him in every way a person can be saved. he brought out the best version of everyone. he never gave up hope on anyone and everyone there couldn’t thank him enough. y/n was hired by bobby, being her first accepting captain who actually cared about her and the job. she was a light to his day, and his guidance made her a better worker and person. he was their number one soldier.

“bobby, you’re the dad of this firehouse,” hen said.

“you did not have to do any of this,” he says. as kind of a gesture as this is, it’s making him miss his own children even more. however, he didn’t lose all of his children.

“c’mon, cap,” buck speaks excitedly. “you treat me more like a son than my real dad ever has. and you didn’t have to do that. so, open these gifts right now!”

bobby takes bucks first, stripping the bag of the paper and taking out the figure inside. it was a bobble head dressed in firefighting gear, who had similar features to bobby. “where the hell did you get this, buck?” bobby laughs and grins.

“the internet is a very big place, cap.”

“mine next!” chim yells, practically throwing his box into bobby’s arms. when he ripped the red and blue wrapping paper open, it revealed a red tumbler with captain nash on it, along with an LAFD badge above it. chimney weakly taped a picture of his face onto it. “your coffee cups are practically all falling apart, so i wanted to get you the best one out there. and i added some personalization to it,” he winks.

“thank you very much, chimney,” bobby smiles. “i’ll always think about you with my coffee from now on.”

bobby receives an extremely lavish watch from ravi, and his face drops as he opens it. it had little designs on the inside of the glass. “panikkar! how much was this?”

“oh you know, just pocket change,” he teases.

he opens the rest from eddie and hen, along with a few other gifts he received from people. he saved one of the closest for last. y/n gently handed her gift to bobby and set it down in front of him. she had curled the ribbon and wrapped it almost perfectly.

laying on top of the main gift was an air freshener for his car, shaped like a turnout jacket and an axe. it had his name on it and was his favorite scent. underneath was a board, with clear wooden writing. it wrote, captain nash, a true hero. all the names were in a circle around the quote including, diaz, buckley, wilson, han, y/l/n, panikkar. there was small pin on the inside with the word hero on it. “it’s a good luck charm, from all of us. you can wear it on your uniform or whatever you want to wear it on.”

bobby had suddenly been overwhelmed from the love he had been faced with. it was something he wanted for years, but never thinking he was worthy of something like it. a few years earlier, he was ready to leave the world after making up for his losses. when hen and buck found him knocked out from the amount of booze he’d consumed, he knew people were on his side. he was the most they could ask from a father. his eyes became glossy, but he refused to cry any form of tears in front of his crew anymore, even happy ones. he forced a strong front, but the appreciation from his kids brought down the walls.

now, bobby walks into the station every morning, the pin on one of his pockets, his tumbler in hand, a t-shirt from hen or eddie, his new watch. lastly, of course, he walked into his office to see the bobble head of himself on his desk.

he wore all of these items as much as he could, every single one meaning more to him than words. he never thought of himself as a hero, but the complete opposite. everything he is given was a gift, and represents the pure love everyone has for him. however, nothing can ever beat the true family gift of the 118.

[maygrcnt]

do you guys think brook nash probably didn’t actually name her final school project “my dad the hero” like the project was probably about bobby but over the years his mind conflated the two events in his mind so badly because he can’t separate himself from his father

911 ep 708 first watch reactions

Oh, poor Bobby.

Seeing him at that AA meeting, his past failures that made him wanna take his own life rubbed back in his face with the intention to hurt, was painful. Especially because you realize Amir would not be saying anything, unless he realized at that meeting that Bobby is the kind of good guy that can be hurt by hearing about the consequences to other people of his own actions. If Amir had gotten the idea that Bobby is the kind of cold-hearted bastard who did not care and could "just walk away," then his whole little speech would have been pointless, and another path for revenge would have been needed instead.

But to see little Bobby, so happy and proud when it came to his dad the firefighter captain, realizing he must have wanted to be just like his hero all these years, really brings into focus how much he must have felt like an even greater failure in his own mind, no matter how many good things he did, how many people he saved, how often he was willing to sacrifice his life to save others', and how hard he's worked to fix the faults that caused this tragedy in the first place. And not just since the fire that killed 148 people, but from the very moment that his drunk dad started gaslighting him, as if the senior (supposedly heroic) Captain Nash's sins were the fault of his son.

"I never counted the survivors."

Why does this show keep hurting me by striking in the places closest to home. :( My grandparents were all Holocaust survivors, and yeah, I know firsthand that survivors are victims, as well as sometimes their family members, too. I'm a third generation, and I know exactly where the Holocaust has scarred my grandparents, my parents and me. I know what the Nazis and their collaborators did, does not stop in May of 1945, and is not close to over in May of 2024. Grief, pain and loss can be like that stone thrown into the water, where the circles that come out of it may extend far beyond the initial point of impact.

What Athena said to Bobby about how it needed to matter to him that he's a different person now than he was back then is so incredibly important. It was a good ep, but at the end of the day, most of us don't get to heal by saving people's lives. We find what we can fix and we do, we choose to be kind with others, we eventually learn that the measure of compassion and mercy we show to ourselves also matters, and we try to find the right balance between all of these things. That last part is probably the hardest. But that's the real work of life, and that one I think is true for all of us, no matter what our circumstances might be.

The Parts We Play - Chapter 8

“The Fallen Firefighters Foundation offers vital support, funding, and resources to the families of firefighters lost in the line of duty, heroes that put their lives on the line every day to keep the American people safe from harm,” The emcee has the audience eating out of the palm of his hand, every statement garnering a round of applause that takes a while to die down. “A big thank you to Evan Buckley for nominating the foundation as tonight’s chosen charity.”

Another wave of applause ripples around the room, a spotlight swinging to focus on Buck who half stands from his seat and lifts a hand in bashful thanks for the acknowledgment. When he sits back down Taylor leans in and kisses his cheek leaving a smear of lipstick which she thumbs away with a laugh.

Eddie has a sudden urge to upend the water jug over her head.

“We’re honored tonight to have four of the best the Los Angeles Fire Department has to offer in our midst tonight, from last year's 7.1 earthquake to the tragic crash of flight LB47, the crew from station 118 plays a pivotal part in protecting our city. Please join me in recognizing the heroism of firefighters Han, Wilson, and Diaz, and their esteemed leader Captain Nash.”

The loudest applause yet grows in ferocity as Maddie, who had slipped into the seat next to Chimney just before the meal began, motions for them to stand. Chim is the first on his feet, waving to the crowd like he’s at a rally, Bobby and Hen standing to accept the praise with more dignity. Eddie is the last to move, only standing when he receives a pointed look and nod from Buck who is looking at him for the first time since they joined the table.

“An extended thank you goes to firefighter Diaz, in particular,” The emcee continues, Eddie freezing in a half crouch into his chair. “Who’s date that’s up for auction, I’m told has reached $80,000!”

The level of noise in the room increases tenfold at the amount but Eddie can barely hear it over the road of white noise that pounds through him. He’s vaguely aware of being slapped on the back and pulled upright by Chim, thrust back into the spotlight and under the eyes of the several hundred celebrities surrounding him.

Eddie’s never wished for the ground to open beneath him and swallow him whole, if anything, that happening is one of his biggest fears since the day he was buried under 30 feet of earth. But right there, at that moment, without the rest of his team to hide behind, all Eddie wants is to disappear into the void and never be seen again.

Two hours ago the highest bid was at twenty-five thousand, and now it’s more than tripled. These people have more sense than money.

What I remember from my dream last night.

Title: This is what Dreams are Made Of

I was at my new home in Los Angeles when a fire broke out.

Me: Oh my god my house is on fire I have to call 9-1-1. And now I’m stuck underneath something and I can’t move. Not how I wanted this to happen.

Maddie: 9-1-1, what is your emergency?

Me: Is this Maddie Han?

Maddie: This is she yes, how did you know that?

Me: You happen to know my father. Bobby Nash, he is the captain of the 118 fire station. If you could send the 118 to my house that would be great. I can’t breathe. This is not how I wanted to meet my father. My mother died some time ago and I moved to Los Angeles to get some answers regarding my father. How I knew it was you from all the research I did. And from watching old videos and calls that somehow got posted online. My house is on fire and I’m sick. I sent move. This is just fantastic.

Maddie: Don’t worry sir, the 118 is on their way. Wait I thought all of his kids died in that fire back home?

Me: I’m his oldest kid, he didn’t even know about me. His wife and him got together in the 90s and had me and then Bobby took off. Then they of course got back together but at that point I was on my own. I didn’t know even know about my family’s death until I saw it on the news.

Maddie: They should be there soon. I’m sorry we are meeting under these circumstances.

Me: Well thank you Maddie.

This is when the call ended. I was stuck and my arm was hurting and I was bleeding pretty bad. I was a doctor once, but this was my first time getting hurt at home.

Me: I cannot believe I’ll be meeting my dad after 28 years. Not how I imagined this.

I had my bedroom ceiling fall on top of me and I had no clue how my house started on fire. I was a doctor before but I couldn’t do anything to save myself right now.

Bobby: We are here. Did he say where he was located?

Maddie: He said he was inside his bedroom, the ceiling fell on him and he seemed to be a bad shape.

Me: The firefighters are here. The 118 my heroes.

Bobby: Who did he know the 118 was coming?

Maddie: He requested it personally. He claimed he knew you Bobby.

Bobby: We found him. Help me get him off this ceiling.

Buck: On it Captain.

Me: Very attractive firefighters too. My lucky day.

Buck: That’s sweet but I do have a boyfriend and it’s pretty serious too.

Me: Good for you. I am here all alone. My mother died in a house fire and now this. I’m going to die the same way they did back in Minnesota.

Bobby: Wait I’m from there and my family died there too. Maddie did you say he knew me?

Maddie: He did.

Me: Not how I thought I was going to be meeting my father after 28 years without one.

Everyone seemed to be shocked especially Bobby. He thought all his kids were dead. This is a dream after all and not even apart of the world to 911.

Me: Hey there dad. You’re even more handsome than mom said.

Bobby: I still cannot believe I have an older son I had no clue about. What’s your last name?

Me: Nash.

Bobby: Oh you’re my kid then. Not the first kid of mine. I mean Buck here is like my kid anyways.

Buck: I’m just glad you’re back as captain Bobby. You’re the father I never had.

Me: Nice to have that. Bobby was never in my life because he wanted nothing to do with me. Apparently I was a drunken mistaken. His words not mine.

Bobby: Hey it is not too late to connect. And I’m sorry it’s under these circumstances.

I got out of the house alive with the help of the 118. They all seemed to be shocked.

The dream ended after getting into the ambulance and heading to the hospital. It was so shocking meeting my dad after 28 years.

[peppermintquartz]

Because I know pro wrestling to a small degree...

AU time!

--

The promotion is run by Bobby Nash and Athena Grant. They used to be wrestlers themselves but now they just wanna help uplift indie wrestlers. They have lots of independent wrestlers who want to come and work with them.

Hen is their women's champ and her longtime rival was "Rocket" Karen. Storied rivalry, with vicious promos and even more vicious fights. They're equally matched in championship reigns too. So when Hen came out with Karen as her wife, it was a huge deal and gave them lots of coverage. Karen soon retires from wrestling to pursue her rocket scientist career and take care of the kids, but she always gets a huge reaction whenever she shows up for Hen on pay per views.

"Chimney" Howard Han first trained in Japan and is beloved by fans. His manager-girlfriend of that time "betrayed" him (didn't wanna leave Japan) and after that, his long-time partner and best friend Kevin Lee suffered a career-ending injury, so now Kevin works commentary in a larger promotion. So Chimney now works solo, and is a veteran cruiserweight. He does the circuits of different promotions, and whenever he's where Kevin is, the fans lap up any interaction they share. One iconic moment is when Kevin reached under the announcer table to take out a barbed wire bat, handed it to Chimney, and never stopped his commentary throughout as Chimney rained hell on Doug.

Maddie and Buck join the promotion at the same time. Maddie does backstage interviews (she's actually in the PR department) and no one misses how she and Chimney have really intense chemistry. Buck makes fun of it a few times too in his promos but cried the most when his sis and Chimney had their wedding

Buck and Eddie started as singles competitors but they never really sparked a connection with the fans until they fell into a tag team. Then suddenly they're insanely popular, Eddie's snark matching perfectly with Buck's sunshiny persona especially on interviews and promos. Think "Someone is going to die... of fun!" kinds of iconic.

In the ring, Eddie's the athletic technician, Buck is the one with the power moves. One local show, some arrogant rookie decides to mock Christopher's disability in his in-ring promo without clearing it with Eddie and Buck prior, and Christopher is present. Rookie nearly gets beaten to death for real by both of them. Buck and Eddie get fined and suspended, but the message has been sent: Christopher is off-limits. When they return to in-ring action, they're welcomed as heroes.

Tommy used to be with Bobby's promotion, but he's been in a bigger promotion for a bit teaming with Sal. After the strain of traveling almost 300 days of the year, he wants to take it easy for a bit, and when he comes back, he gets wildly extreme reactions (some say he sold out back when, some are just elated that he's back). He starts again as a singles competitor, works his way through the midcard, wins a challenge to take on the champ. It's all scripted but the older Tommy has the look and the attitude to be one of the faces of the promo. He takes on the Hurricane (top dog in the promotion) and wins, and when Buck congratulates him backstage, Tommy (kinda high from the fan reaction and the win and the trust the promotion is putting in him) kisses Buck. Buck is stunned. But then he just. Kisses. Back.

Eddie is like. Is my tag partner gonna leave me? (Turns out no, Buck will only partner with Eddie, Tommy's working his own storylines as singles competitor.)

Tommy and Buck come out as gay and bi after, Eddie is the token straight man, but in a few house shows' where they are a three men team, they play doing kiss-tag, where they kiss instead of tapping hands, and there's always the loud roar of approval whenever Tommy kisses Buck (because they go full tongue since they can) and whenever it's Buck and Eddie, or Eddie and Tommy, they play like they're embarrassed or shy, but they always plant at least one big fat smack.

[cafecitoeddie]

okay i (and my family) might be in the absolute minority but....... we did not like that latest episode. at all.

it really truly felt like two completely different episodes spliced together.

we discussed it at length and while both storylines were emotional ON THEIR OWN (i cried a bit at baby bobby begging his father to wake up) they didn't really mesh as well as i thought they were going to.

amir coming back would have benefitted from a throwback to a day in the life of bobby and his family from before the apartment fire or perhaps even the day of or the day right before the fire.... maybe then the actual impact of amir having lost his wife, someone bobby actually met, would have had more significance. and baby bobby dealing with his father's alcoholism would have meshed better with a storyline perhaps involving a child going through something similar or perhaps even the upcoming medal ceremony bringing up past memories of the last time a member of the nash family was called a hero despite... not necessarily deserving it (or the character themselves thinking they deserve it.)

athena telling bobby he's not the same man he was 10 years prior and wanting bobby himself to remember that was powerful tho. and malcolm-jamal warner was fantastic!!!!!

idk this is just what we thought... this new bobby lore definitely added to his character and the decisions he has made throughout the entire series but this episode ..... wasn't great.

these are our opinions and definitely don't need to reflect anyone else's.
