do you ever think about tommy paying for their dinner date or tommy pouring the beer in buck’s glass or tommy gently grabbing buck’s chin or tommy showing up despite him being on-call or tommy’s “i didn’t wanna pressure you” or his “i think you’re adorable” or tommy feeling bad for leaving the party to go to work and immediately promised buck he’ll try his damnest to make it to the wedding or him apologizing for being late to their wedding date even though he has valid reasons or tommy going straight to buck after fighting a beast of a fire still in his turnouts
Just by listening to him, I felt like I was in a trance. I felt like I was fighting. And I cried! I cried in his arms after we shot the scene.

It was such a scary thing to do to be sort of thrown into that episode, and it's the one I look back at and I can see– I have a bit of an out of body experience every time I watch it, kind of don't recognize myself in it.
