#so ready for season 12

[sylkiddsey]

Prompt: “How did I manage to get you?”

Season 12

The last thing Matt expects when he officially moves back to Chicago is Sylvie needing emergency surgery at one in the morning.

Everything had been normal when her appendix burst. They had both been up too late, working on the new house when Sylvie had doubled over in pain right on the stairs.

He instantly knew it was more than just a terrible cramp the second he saw he. She was pale and in agonizing pain which scared the hell out of him. He had to rush her to the hospital in his truck after calling the neighbor over to watch Julia.

Luckily, it was just her appendix and not something more serious. Marcel assured him she needed a simple appendectomy, but they wanted to do it right away.

He barely had time to process any of it before they took her to surgery. The operation was a success, but Marcel warned him she’d be out of it for a while after all the drugs.

He’s been at her side, holding her hand and waiting for her to wake up for hours.

She finally stirs just as Kidd arrives with a coffee delivery for him and purple hydrangeas for his fiancé.

Sylvie blinks slowly, clearly unfocused and dazed. He doesn’t blame her. She was on anesthesia and a concoction of pain meds.

“Welcome back,” he greets, brushing some hair away from her eyes.

She still looks a little confused as she catalogues his face.

Kidd stands on the other side of her bed and squeezes her shoulder. “How you feeling, girl?”

Sylvie looks at her and pulls her friend closer. “Um, why is there a really hot guy sitting at my bedside?”

Stella looks at him and he can tell they are wondering the same thing. She never lost any oxygen to her brain so she can’t have memory loss.

Sylvie gives him a quick side glance and then tries to whisper but he hears every word.

She’s definitely super high on pain pills right now.

“He’s very seriously cute. Is he my doctor?”

He’s not in scrubs which is obvious to anyone who isn’t still half asleep on anesthesia.

Matt grins at her. “No, I’m not your doctor.”

She glances at him. “Oh, sorry. My nurse. Men can be nurses.”

“Brett, how drugged are you?” Kidd laughs. She reaches for her chart to study just how much pain medication she is on. “Yep, they have her on the good stuff.”

He had a feeling. He’s heard of these kinds of reactions to anesthesia. He just never expected Sylvie wouldn’t realize who he is right now.

Matt grabs her left hand and brings attention to the diamond on her finger. “No, I’m not a nurse either. I’m your fiancé, baby.”

Her blue eyes widen comically. She’s looking at him like he’s grown two heads. “You?”

Stella laughs again.

Sylvie shakes her head in awe and then turns back to Stella. She talks as if he’s not there again.

“I’m really marrying him? You’re telling me the cutest guy I’ve ever met is actually my fiancé?”

God, she’s adorable. He tries to stifle his laugh with his hand.

“Yes, Brett. This guy is your man. You’re really riding high on those pain killers huh?”

He chuckles, pressing his lips to her fingers. “Yeah, I’m your guy.”

“I…” she trails off and stares at the ceiling. Her drug addled brain stalls for a minute before she glances at him. She gasps like she’s uncovered some secret. “You are seriously very cute, and I really scored you.”

She’s very drugged and also incredibly biased. He goes along with it though because she’ll have no memory of this interaction after she’s fully alert.

“I’m definitely the one who scored, babe.”

She furrows. “How did I manage to get you? You’re so hot.”

Kidd snorts and rolls her eyes. Sylvie has said that multiple times now. He’s flattered but she’s actually the one out of his league.

“You are both the easiest person to love and the most beautiful woman in the world. I think that had something to do with it.”

Stella pats Sylvie’s hand. “Trust me girl, Casey over here is madly in love with you and you feel the same.”

Matt nods. “She’s right.”

Sylvie yawns, sluggishly rubbing her eyes. He can tell she’s about to pass back out for a little while and then wake up for real next time.

The drugs are still filtering in her system.

“I can see why,” she whispers, snuggling further into the hospital bed pillow.

Within seconds, she’s fast asleep.

“She’s definitely not going to remember that,” Kidd chuckles.

He nods and kisses Sylvie’s hand. “Yeah, definitely not.”

Kidd paces to the foot of her bed. “Are you going to tell her about all this?”

“I don’t know,” he replies. “Probably at some point.”

The other woman shakes her head. “She’s absolutely so obsessed with you in the best way, huh?”

She is and he has no idea what he did to deserve it.

A little while later when Sylvie is fully up and eating Jello, she asks if she said anything ridiculous while on anesthesia. He replies with a small shake of his head and kisses her.

Maybe he’ll tell her everything later.

When you start The Good Doctor because of pressure form YouTube shorts and then get to season 3 episode 5 within two weeks of starting it and then go on tik tok one night because you ship two character together and wanted to see something ONLY TO LEARN ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS DIE

[tina-snow]

hi doctor who friends i’m so late but what’s going on with this timeless child thing

[yumeyumeappleo]

i can see why you mfs like the owl house so much, this shit slays

[voidrots]

what do you fucking mean david tennants gonna be the fourteenth doctor

[hellceo]

sometimes i look at the fact that they basically humanized crowley, gave him some empathy and humanity, and then just — stop. they lock him in a trunk, then in the bunker. then when they finally do turn him loose, his mother comes back. tries to kill him. he aligns with the winchesters and cas, help them out. he gets gavin back. shows some growth.

then sam tries to kill him. the winchesters and rowena send gavin back to die and don't give him an opportunity to even say bye, he just gets frozen with rowena's spell and left to watch.

HAVE WE EVER CONSIDERED that if ANYONE had taken HALF A SECOND TO GIVE A DAMN AFTER GIVING HIM SOME HUMANITY BACK maybe he would have been proven to be an ALLY instead of continuing to KICK HIM WHILE HE WAS DOWN JESUS

On Tommy Kinard

"It's not that I don't like Buck and Tommy, it's just happening so fast, he's underdeveloped!"

*clears throat*

Here is a recap of what we know about Tommy. And this is just off the top of my head, I didn't rewatch anything.

He was closeted at the 118 before and found the atmosphere repressive. He (probably) acted like a dick to fit in. When presented with the chance to make things better, he took it, and developed positive relationships with Hen, Chim and Bobby.

He was in the army and trained there as a pilot.

He knows Muay Thai and has a set up in his house.

He likes to work on cars and has a lift at his house (where TF does he live is my question - he has some nerve being agog at Buck's loft if he has a muay thai gym and a car lift)

He is down for violating departmental policy at the drop of a hat (has done so on at least two occasions) to help a friend and has no problems fucking with the fire chief.

He is a nerd. He likes pub trivia and has incorrect Star Wars opinions, and can keep up with Chim in the movie-quoting department.

His favorite movie is "Love, Actually" and he likes craft beer and monster trucks.

He came out when he transferred to Harbor and felt comfortable enough to stop lying about who he was.

He follows MMA and has friends in Vegas who like him well enough to hook him up to a frankly insane degree.

He'll risk his own life and engage in helicopter skulduggery to save people he doesn't know...I mean, apart from doing that for a living.

He'll take time out of his day to give a tour to the cute boy who called him up and offer to give that boy flying lessons (a significant time investment) which was probably maybe about more one on one time with said boy.

He yearns for the belonging and found family that the 118 became after his departure and probably befriended Eddie hoping to earn a plate at the cookout, aside from just clicking with him.

He likes Eddie and Chris a lot and they like him. Chimney also likes him.

He was attracted to Buck right away and was emotionally aware enough to pick up on Buck's jealous feelings over Eddie and his friendship, even if he was surprised that it was him Buck wanted to get to know.

He respects and values Buck and Eddie's friendship and wanted to make sure Buck knew that.

He's brave enough to shoot his shot by planting one on a dude.

He's a lil bitchy but also generous and ready to throw in with this insane guy who's inviting him to a family wedding after 0.5 dates.

He showed up to a bachelor party when he was on call because Buck asked him to, then showed up in turnouts after fighting a fire for like 12 hours yadda yadda we all know this part.

He has got it BAD for one Evan Buckley, who he only calls "Evan" which according to LFJR is a conscious decision by the writers, which fascinates me.

He was willing to take a chance with a man just discovering his sexuality BUT wasn't willing to put himself through that if the man in question wasn't ready for it. When Buck showed him that he was, he was all in.

He does NOT take his coffee like that.

Oh and

He's a beast.

This is VASTLY more information than we knew about ANY of Buck's previous girlfriends with the possible exception of Abby. Even Taylor did not get this much development over 20 episodes (things we knew about her: she was an ambitious and ethically flexible reporter, did not eat fudge, had a dad in jail, and sometimes jogged for exercise, she was capable of being nice and did love Buck, I believe). And as for it being fast? Sometimes it just be like that? A relationship doesn't have to have year(s) of buildup. Sometimes people do just meet, like each other, and start dating, in fact in the real world that's usually what happens. It's in TV Land that you have to have eighteen seasons of UST before pulling the trigger. Most of the time in reality people just vibe off each other and decide to go out and THEN they learn about each other.

And they've got a great start. You'd think they'd barely spoken by how a few naysayers are talking about it - the loft scene was like a solid five minutes of very open conversation, the Cringe Date seemed to have gone well and again, open and honest (if cringey) conversation before Cockblocker Eddie showed up, and the coffee meetup was again....open and honest conversation. They're not gonna show us long scenes of them exchanging firefighting stories and workout preferences (I mean, I'd watch that, but it's not what the show is about).

In conclusion, anyone saying he's poorly developed or the relationship is "out of nowhere" either is being willfully obtuse or has ridiculously unrealistic expectations for relationships and/or what constitutes character development.

As for whether they have chemistry, that's a matter of subjective opinion. Given that a TON of people watched that harbor tour scene (even when it was posted as a sneak peek) and started going "wait...what's going on here...are they flirting??" might be a clue. People were talking about Bi!Buck maybe happening with Tommy based solely off that clip of the harbor tour and what they were seeing between them. And imho that loft scene was crackling. But we all see things through the lenses of our biases, myself included.

Got that off my chest, whew.
