Oops. I like Enzo, despite the white collar crime. He's so messy!! It's obvous he loves TK and it's obvious he was there when TK grew up. I love that he spent winters practicing softball with TK. I love that he came to support TK at his games and I loved that he loved that TK has a soft heart and wanted to rescue bugs (instead of falling into the trap of being too invested in the sport and not seeing the kid anymore so many parents do).
But I loved him most for everything he said about Owen to TK while TK was growing up. Despite their obviously confrontational relationship, telling TK to show Owen grace and explaining the well of pain after 9/11. Especially the grace part is a powerful thing to teach a young person, and it's been a huge part of TK's relationship with Owen these past five seasons. He's shown Owen so much grace and forgiveness and patience!
(As a sidenote I thought it was interesting that Owen felt Enzo was responsible for a big part of his pain, by which I assume the pain caused by Gwyn leaving him. I always thought it was implied the divorce was about Owen not coping well with 9/11 and not being there for his family, and that Enzo only came into the picture after the divorce.
Or was it the pain of losing Gwyn a second time? Even if she and Enzo didn't get together.)
White collar crime isn't victimless and I have no doubt Enzo did all the things. But I kinda hope TK can extend him some grace now in turn. He can take Jonah out for dim sum and then throw baseballs in the park after.

I can see TK being the typical sports dad if Jonah ever does sports as he grows up. He'll be so supportive and passionate to the point, he's embarrassing Jonah.
Jonah better buckle up.
Not only would he have a passionate whistle-loving TK...
He'd also have Carlos.
Just imagine the amount of loud, rambunctious, wonderful love and support these two would absolutely shower Jonah with from the stands. They would be The Most Embarrassing by miles and that kid would be so lucky.
#anon answered#911 lone star#tarlos#tk strand#carlos reyes#jonah *insert last name here*#my gifs#911ls discussion & meta#there was this basketball player at my high school whose dad would be at every home game#and anytime he made a basket his dad would yell out 'THAT'S MY BOY!!' or 'THAT'S MY SON!'#even opposing teams found him incredibly endearing#... that's the kind of energy they bring to the table here

i’m so here for the complicated feelings that are gonna arise. i’m so here for enzo being vastly different from owen and them butting heads but putting that aside for their love for tk. i’m so here for tk getting to see this dynamic with a fresh set of eyes. i’m so here for him to be both the kiddo and the thirty-year old man who’s life vastly changed for the better since enzo last saw him and what that means for their dynamic, his dynamic with jonah, and his dynamic with his dad.
#like the way enzo was presented there…..if he’s always been the flashy cool step-dad it’ll be cool to see tk see through that a bit now#it’ll be cool to see enzo beyond the flashiness and see what drew gwyn to him and made him this good guy tk loves#it’ll be cool to see tk insist to his dad he’ll always need him and the excess doesn’t matter to him#i hope we get to see the enzo who was there when owen couldn’t be#idk idk these complicated dynamics are gonna be !!!! so interesting#911ls#lone star spoilers

911 lone star fandom be honest with me, do y'all think owen strand and billy tyson have explored each other's bodies? cause me personally, i think they've done it multiple times before. i think it starts out as a series of drunken hookups and then as the hookups progress they become less drunk until they've done like the last 5 hookups sober and all of sudden they can't look at each other anymore.
#billy tyson is soooo near and dear to me#i think he is soooo pathetic wet cat#he is soooo drenched and haunted by the Horrors#and owen is.... owen ig#and like it shouldn't work but they're like if the old man who yells at you to get off his lawn had a second more irate old man also yellin#and the old men were gay#and everyone around is happy!! but so so confused#and tk thinks it's soooo nasty#like sooooo fuckin nasty#and he accidentally walks in on them once and now he refuses to have dinner at his dads anymore#billy tyson#owen strand#billyowen#owenbilly#911 lone star

don’t think about the finale and instead think of Henren taking Buck for his first pride being out (this man is an ally he’s been to pride before giving out free hugs)
And Buck is so happy with a bi flag on his face being with his family. Hen and Karen have lesbian flag capes and all of them mock the protesters. Bucktommy kisses in front of the protesters and they are all so happy
#all of the 118 is there#Bobby gives free dad hugs#Buck is the first one to get a hug#Buck so went to pride as an ally#this isn’t his first pride but it is his first not being an ally#maybe they meet up with the Texas crew#tk teases Buck for dating two tks and currently being with one#Tarlos and Henren are a power duo and have drinks together#Maddie and chim are having so much fun#Maddie and Marjan would get along so well I just know it#Chris is there with eddie (as he should be) and he comes back home#911 abc#evan buckley#tommy kinard#henren#bucktommy#hen wilson#karen wilson#eddie Buck and Tommy hold hands#Ravi is having a blast and teases Buck about being an ally ofc#Buck never will get away from saying he’s an ally while on a date with a dude#it’s an inside joke

thinking about how tk reacts to being called the coach's son, how upset he is, how he turns to recounting his accomplishments, trying to create that distance between them, and thinking about how many times he's done this before. what it must've been like to grow up as owen strand's son in the aftermath of 9/11. the boy whose dad saved so many people and lost his entire crew, then rebuilt his entire firehouse. thinking about how many times tk's been called the coach's son, accused of being favored because of who his dad is, unable to exist outside of owen's shadow for all incredible, wonderful, heroic reasons that somehow don't feel that way. the tension between loving his dad and being so proud of him and resenting him a little for all of it.
#imagining even like. him acing a test and some bitter kid muttering something about how the teacher gave it to him bc of his dad#bc everyone in their area knows owen knows the story knows what he did#what it must've been like to grow up like that#tk and owen RUIN me truly#there's so much there it's so complicated#because owen is a hero that has done so many impressive and wonderful things that sometimes took him away from being tk's hero as a kid#that sometimes had him not showing up that sometimes made tk doubt things he hated doubting#the worst thing is it isn't something owen was even doing intentionally and it can be fully understood by his own trauma#he didn't mean to but it still happened#he loves his son so much and he tried but it's still so.#it's just so much and i love it i love them i love how messy this is because it's full of so much love that is the crux of it#911 lone star#911 ls meta

I was a dreamer before you went and let me down, season five 😭😭😭😭😭
#like - here are some of the greatest hits from season four#moments that actually happened outside of my imagination or fics#TK told Owen he was his best friend and he’s always need Owen in his life#TK went to Owen for advice on a problem with Carlos- multiple times#the first time he said out loud in a canonical episode - that he wanted to be a dad because of his and Owen’s relationship#and that Carlos was intimidated because TK knew what it was like to know his father loved supported and was proud of him#whereas Carlos did not#and TK goes to his father AGAIN after Carlos losss his father-#and Owen offers to take care of canceling the wedding and saves Carlos’s life#but come season five-#Owen and TK-#despite there being a clear moment where they could in every episode-#not only are they not talking but Owen will ruin his birthday and the progress he made in therapy to beat up Enzo#like- season five could’ve been so much better than this#any fic writer on here could have written a better season#911 lone star#tk strand#seven sentence sunday#owen strand

Did anyone else just love Owen’s reaction when he opened the door to TK? I mean he practically squealed. The way he said his name was so cute. I love that we’re getting back to season 1 Strand Boys.
#911 lone star#tk Strand#Owen Strand#love their relationship#despite what some people say Owen is a good dad#he clearly loves his son fiercely#and when he tries he gives great advice

You've heard of mansplaining, now get ready for: dadsplaining!
Example: you're filling out paperwork and your dad sits next to you and tells you the answers to questions like: what is your name and last name (he also helps you spell it), when is your birthday, when did you graduate high scool etc.
#this actually happened tk my sister a few years back#she lost her ID card and had to go to the police station early in the morning to aply for a new one#my dad woke me up in like 7 am to go with them in case they needed help with tech stuff (finding the necessary forms online)#he ended up figuring it out by himself and he was very proud#and then went to help out my sister with the paperwork and did what i described above#it reminded me of how captain holt in b99 always informed his husband of his full name when they talked on the phone#and when they were making reservations and holt told kevin how to spell his name#anyways afterwards my dad went to buy coffee and a tiropita as a thank you for the officer thay helped us and fought with my sister#bc she didn't want to bring them to the officer#before he bought the stuff he asked us if we wanted anything and i asked for an iced tea which he forgot :(#so not only was my presence useless i also didn't get anything out if it#but seeing my dad and sister fill out paperwork was pretty funny and i will forever cherish that memory#shitpost#text#crispy talks

9-1-1 : LONE STAR I 1x08 ‘Monster Inside’ : Owen and TK have a heart to heart.
#needed to bring this here because i can't stop thinking of their paralleling conversation here#and owen telling him about the hereditary illness 😭#'I can’t marry carlos knowing that i have a death sentence hanging over my head' and 'I can't fall in love with one more thing that i#know I'm gonna lose dad..'#vs 'son we all have a death sentence handing over our heads' 'there is no guarantees.. not for anybody.. It's okay to love him even though#you might lose him' and 'you're not going to postpone anything you're just gonna move forward with your life' 😭#Owen comforting tk when he's spiraling about lose hanging over his horizon. making him see the silver linings despite it all.. and actually#his growth this time of not having wanting to hide things from tk anymore.. telling him that he needs him as much as tk needs his dad..#this is so huge and they both deserve it#but also its the fact that tk also grew through his love for carlos and keeps growing more in love with him#— how he feels invincible with this love because 'it's infinitely more powerful than the fear of losing it' 😭#but those 48 hours are gonna put him and carlos through the wringer.... between the euphoric high of getting married and#the devastating low of potentially having their future together jeopardised because it might come with a time limit#thank fucK we know everything is gonna be fine other wise I'd have been spiraling so bad because THEY DESERVE A FUCKING BREAK#911 lone star#tk strand#911 ls#ronen rubinstein#rafael silva#carlos reyes#owen strand#tarlos#monster inside#1x08#4x16#Rob lowe

Anyway,
#911 lone star#repeat after me#owen is not the main character because this is an ensemble show#i mean as a general rule you really should stay out of people's inboxes to bitch at them about something you know they don't agree with#but also people are allowed to call out the show for trying to get clout for diversity and then making it the owen strand show#and not even the 'owen strand is sooo good at being fire captain' show which would at least get us firecrew scenes!#it's now the 'owen does anything BUT fire captain because that's basically like sitting on the bench' show#which is a shame because there are a billion police/fbi procedurals i could watch if i wanted to#but i don't i want the found family hopeful wholesome 911-verse#and when owen IS being captain or being dad to TK or one of the team or a friend for the other captains his scenes are so good!!#i love those scenes and they give us more content for the other ensemble characters#and THAT is a lot of the complaint about the screetime is that it's majorly going to one character doing outside stuff#so not only is it not centered on the other characters but they don't even hardly get to be involved!#ANWAY#don't mind me just tired of hearing people say no one can be mad because owen is the main character#if this was a show with 2 mains and a handful of supporting characters or the show was named after owen in some way i'd get it#but literally he isn't the main character and that is why people are upset

rewatched 1x09 and one of the things that hit hardest for me was owen and tk's conversation, with the added context of 3x16. because we now know that owen was talking about not having left physically, the way his dad did, while tk was talking about owen leaving emotionally, choosing the family he rebuilt at the 252 over gwyn and tk. and i think what gets me about this is the 3x16 of it all, the way owen was determined not to repeat his dad's mistakes, but how he inadvertently did (for reasons mostly beyond his control). the way we can accidentally hurt our loved ones without meaning to, the way that hurt isn't intentional and isn't malicious but is painful, nonetheless. owen didn't set out to leave but tk felt like he grew up without a dad. owen did the best he could but tk still has to deal with the ramifications. it's so incredibly human and one of the things this show does really well, imo, how complicated and messy relationships often are. people not realizing, not knowing, causing pain nonetheless, but it never being out of a lack of love.
#what's also so interesting is s1 seems to have owen reference 9/11 a lot#like in this scene when tk starts to talk about what he felt growing up owen cuts him off and reminds him of the first responders that died#he gets super defensive#but as the seasons go on he starts admitting he made mistakes and hasn't been a perfect dad#like he's coming to terms with it with this distance with leaving nyc and settling in in texas#idk just kinda fascinating to track having watched s4#also lol i remember being so mad at owen in this scene when i first watched it like let tk speak!!#but now with 3x16 context we have a clear understanding of where owen was coming from and his reaction makes total sense i love it#911 lone star#911 ls meta

thanks to anne @thisbuildinghasfeelings the grief-stricken carlos balancing husbandism and family life after such an intense trauma and trying to solve gabriel’s murder as it ties in with past insecurities mini arc that goes hand in hand with whatever multi-episode emergency that happens somewhat early in s5 that i’ve written in my head stands strong
#thank u anne for sharing that video <333333 now time to spiral#and i didn’t want to do this in your tags AJDNSNS#like i’m perfectly visualizing a more disheveled carlos. maybe not as disheveled as immediately post-gabriel#but scruffy/not clean shaven. trying to present a happy vision of himself to everyone around him#and he IS mostly happy because he’s married he’s got tk things are going well but in the back of his mind it’s just his dad’s death and#the guilt he might feel#and then as the arc progresses he comes to some sort of final acceptance that’ll never be final bc grief doesn’t work that way#but he shaves and he allows himself to just feel what he needs to feel and he leans on his support system#maybe has something to do with his job too??!!#idk i’m SCAREDSJDKS BUT ALSO !!#911ls
