#ravi 911

[violet-knights]

Crack fic where the 118 and co are all arguing about what color Bucks hair is

Maddie, Buck, and Bobby think he is blonde. Chimney, Hen, and Athena think he has brown hair.

They turn to Eddie and he is like well it depends and pulls out a whole PowerPoint presentation about how the lighting and environment affects it, how the sun will bleach it to look lighter and on and on and on as the rest of the cast just stare at him.

And then in the back Ravi just goes “I thought he was a redhead!”

Ravi getting dragged into the 118 found family kicking and screaming is one of my favorite things about 8b so far.

[perhapspluto]

i know everyone's buddiemaxxing right now (and SO real) but can we talk about anirudh's interview because.. this shit is So Funny to me

i love the buckravi dynamic as is, but him being like... jeez this guy is soooo lame he needs to have sex NOW and then ditching him with his ex is soooo.. lwky peak sibling behavior.

also incredibly telling as buck literally cannot shut the fuck up about eddie the whole time theyre out for drinks. ravi said this guy needs a rebound after eddie broke up with his ass smh my head

[mvltisstuff]

hii!! i hope you’re well :) i haven’t seen anyone write a fic for ravi panikkar (he deserves the whole world fr) so i’ve got a request hehe, if that’s okay?

could you write a fic where reader and ravi secretly like each other but are both too awkward to admit it so the 118 always tease them and try to set them up together? maybe in the end they both confess their feelings to each other after one of them gets badly injured when attending a rescue?

im soo sorry if this is too long and feel free to ignore this request if you’d like <33 thank youuu 🫶

summary: request

ravi panikkar x reader

a/n: thank you for the request, i hope this does it justice and you enjoy :)) This WILL have a second part!! i just wanted to get something out for u today :))

everyone knew that y/n and ravi were pretty much the baby siblings of the rest of the crew at the 118. they all got so attached to each other, but for some reason, ravi and y/n always managed to strengthen the distance between them. it was like a family photo, each of them on other ends.

y/n came into the picture a bit after ravi did, instantly clicking with everyone. she was incredibly bright for her age and being so new, so she was perfect to have on the team. ravi was quick and selfless, making him another must-have when bobby was looking for new probies. he could already envision y/n and ravi being just like buck and eddie, or chim and hen.

however, bobby’s ideas were slowed down by their stubbornness. as soon as y/n walked into the station, she got nervous whenever ravi was near. the first time she laid eyes on him, it was evident on her face that she had a little crush forming. ravi, too, kept asking bobby and his other coworkers questions about the new girl, but only getting teasing replies back. y/n and ravi, out of their own anxieties, would exchange a couple sentences a day, and they would be on calls. they seemed like strangers when out of uniform, and none of the team liked it.

they’ve been plotting small things for weeks to get them to talk to each other, like bringing the team out for drinks, or dinner after a call. none of it seemed to work, because they both found loopholes of how not to be surrounded by each other. in buck and eddie’s eyes, it seemed like ravi needed a pep talk.

“hey, ravi!” buck called, while walking besides eddie into the kitchen. ravi was at the table, eating leftovers from dinner the night before. it had been a slow day, so he took the time he had to eat. “we need some advice.”

“yeah, we’re getting old, we need to know what it’s like these days from a younger perspective.” eddie adds, sitting down across from ravi and buck copies.

“okay, with what?”

“so, we both like these girls, and,” eddie turns to look at buck, who nods along. “we need your advice on how to get them. you know, times are always changing and girls like different things now.”

“you guys aren’t even that old-“

“oh, ravi, please,” buck groans. “i feel my knees deteriorating every day and eddie found a grey beard hair the other day.”

“oh, go on, i guess.”

“anyway, this girl, she’s so smart, like amazingly smart.” eddie starts, thinking of ways to describe y/n. “she’s got these eyes that hunt me down and she always has her hair up nice.”

“and mine, she is always on time and never slowed down. she’s passionate and so gorgeous.” buck includes as ravi just shoves more food into his mouth.

“well, what does she do?”

“they’re both firefighters. we met them at the…” eddie starts.

“the bar.” buck finishes for him.

“i play hard to get.” ravi starts spilling, and buck and eddie lean in closer. “the less attention you give, the more they want you. it’ll make it more exciting when they start making more moves. but, you also don’t want to get too attached because she might not want a real relationship. people just want sex these days and i don’t want to make things awkward because we both work at the same station. putting a gap between the two of you works, but it feels like shit, but at least you’ll feel like shit together.”

“mhm, so just ignore her all the time and do everything i can to avoid her?” buck questions, squinting at ravi.

“no, not exactly-“

“isn’t that what you do though?” eddie replies.

“sorry?”

“we’re not dumb, panikkar. your big feelings for y/n are so obvious that it’s the only thing we talk about here these days. do you know how much money i’ve lost because of you two?”

“that’s true, i win all the bets.” buck chimes in.

“i don’t have feelings for-“

“don’t start lying to us now,” eddie sings.

“i’m not ly-“

“you’re lying!” buck sings in the same tone as eddie.

“i don’t really like you guys!” ravi says, putting his fork down.

“well, that doesn’t matter, because you like y/n and she fancies you.” buck tells him.

“wait, did she tell you that?” buck and eddie sigh at his excitement.

“she’s polishing the trucks and she needs an extra hand. and, buck and i, we just don’t want to. and bobby said we can tell you what to do.” eddie says.

“no, he didn’t.” buck hands ravi a cloth and jerks his head in y/n’s direction. “fine. but if this backfires, its on you.”

as ravi heads down the stairs, he stands next to y/n and tosses the rag around nervously. “figured i’d give you a hand.”

hen and chim, on the other engine, turn their heads and stare at the pair, but buck and eddie come back and remind them to not bother y/n and ravi. they were like deer, once you make too much noise they run away.

“oh, thanks,” y/n smiles. “this is my least favorite thing to do.”

“that’s how i feel with cleaning the kitchen, it’s so boring.”

“i don’t mind the kitchen, actually.”

“i’ve been putting it off,” ravi laughs, smearing more polish onto the red, shiny vehicle.

“i can go do it for you, if you want.” y/n offers. ravi does not want her to, because it feels like they’re actually going somewhere now.

“uh,” he hesitates. “sure! only if you want.”

“it’s no problem.” y/n grins and starts making her way upstairs.

buck and eddie come stand next to ravi, shaking their heads in disapproval at the way things just happened.

stuff like this continued to happen for days, ravi would get too close, and y/n would run off. he didn’t understand why she would get so nervous when he’d come around. he figured he’d just give up, no use in getting the girl when she doesn’t want it.

ravi finally thought he had her right where he wanted her. he went upstairs to help her in the kitchen, after taking his chore again to try and help. but, the alarm blaring through the station quickly paused things, like always.

Ravi: I wonder what it feels like to know what the fuck is going on

[sncrlynwtms]

where are my children, i miss them

(wasn’t gonna post this but @johnny-simpson told me it was funny)

[justhellabifandom]

So here's what to expect during the hiatus/my productions for things that are going to happen during the hiatus. Hopefully this helps new fans.

-Oliver ends up dipping off the face of the earth for awhile,he'll do an interview here and there but he'll be radio silent until s9.

-If Tim Minear is going to get fired,it's going to happen anywhere between now and sometime in June. The reason being they start getting ready for filming in July,so they start filming in late July/early August.

-If Kristen Reidel gets fired I don't think they are going to announce it. If they did though we can all cheer.

-June is going to be a quiet month unless Tim Minear gets fired,they might start pushing Nashville since it starts filming next month and building the hype around it.

-July comes around and the cast slowly starts doing interviews here and there,we start getting ideas for there new looks,ect. They might announce Ravi main,or they might not and have him become main still. It's also possible we start seeing how they are going to market the show. I wouldn't be surprised if we get an announcement that someone will be taking Peter's place as a lead IF Bobby doesn't end up being alive.

-August we start getting leaks,we'll get a poster and a teaser for the opening emergency of the season. It's all just crumbs though for now.

-September. Trailer for the show,promo,press, everything just setting up for s9. The first episode will be out around the end of September,early October.

[ravi-is-my-beloved]

I'm hoping we get to see more of Ravi's grief in 8x18. Honestly, I just need to see more of him in general. I can never get enough of him.

They need to make our man a main already. 😭

[confusedass]

how are people being haters when ravi

[bylerismyeverything]

Poor Ravi. He keeps being called Eddie and being forgotten, he was in the firehouse for 4 years and he didn’t actually make friends from the a shift, he finally gets invited to hang out with someone and what does that someone do? Talk about the guy who he replaced the entire time.

[saveahorserideaneddie]

i’m sorry i just can’t subscribe to this whole notion of “ravi is becoming buck’s best friend while eddie moves out of that role to become buck’s romantic partner” because it implies that you can’t be best friends with your romantic partner… like why would buck and eddie suddenly stop being best friends if they became something more on top of that?

i’m not saying ravi can’t be a close friend to either of them like hen and chim and bobby but i would be disappointed if we lost the besties buddie dynamic if they became a couple, because that’s what sets them apart from other ships- they have that solid connection and chemistry with each other where they’re able to banter and goof off etc that we don’t really see from other couples on the show (with the exception of madney in special cases but even then)

like i don’t want buddie to kiss and then suddenly it’s all romance and ooey gooey fluffy lovey dovey stuff (which don’t get me wrong i absolutely want that stuff) but the balance between that romantic element and them being true best friends is what makes them so special to me and i don’t want them to sacrifice that- especially if it’s to just turn ravi into “buck’s new best bud” rather then giving him HIS OWN SHIT… i don’t want ravi’s character to be watered down to his connection to buck as a friend because it takes away from the literal open field of potential they have with ravi as someone who has a limited backstory in canon so far

especially if it means that most of ravi’s screentime would be dedicated to showing him being a secondary figure to buck, and if it means sacrificing buck and eddie’s screentime by no longer giving them those moments of them just being goofballs together

i want ravi to get more screentime but i want it to be as his own person- not an extension of buck, and i don’t want that screentime as an extension of buck to compromise buddie screentime (i hope what i’m trying to say makes sense)

tldr: i want ravi to be able to be his own person and not get caught up in buck’s shadow which is unfortunately what would happen in the writing if they made them canonically “best friends”, and i also want to continue seeing the same bestie shenanigans we’ve seen from buddie after they get together because those moments are what makes buddie so special.
