One of the very few hard pills to swallow I've had with 9-1-1 is the way Eddie so easily allowed his parents to barge into his house and just take his son.

Some may argue that he was too emotional to put up a fight, because 1) the whole encounter with Kim, and 2) he knew he fucked up so he didn't want to upset Christopher more.

Well, this is the beauty of fanfic. You don't like something? You can write a fix-it!!

Here's an excerpt from a piece that I started on today. Hopefully, it won't take me long to finish it cause I'm not looking into making it a long one.

“Go to your room, Mijo. I need to talk with your grandparents.”

“But I want to go!” Christopher says, slamming one of his crutches on the floor.

“And I want to erase the last two days of my life, but we don’t always get what we want, do we?” Eddie says, his eyes narrowing at his son. “Go to your room, Christopher.”

“I hate you!” Christopher screams at Eddie, making Eddie close his eyes and take a deep breath.

“You’ll get over it.” Eddie calls after him, not saying another word until he heard the door slam behind Christopher.

Let me know what you think!

Hen in 8x08

If 911 had been brave they’d have filmed a Christmas episode, Gift of the Magi style, where Eddie goes to El Paso and Chris gets on a Greyhound to LA and so they’re both standing in the place they left with the intention to never come back and it’s for each other.

life imitates… procedural tv?

“You — you get to stay here until the next Hotshots airs." Buck declared at the end of the shift, pointing at Chimney.

"… why? Wait, that's not my question. The next episode is in four months. Why do you want me to stay at the firehouse for four months."

"Yeah, why do you think that's even something that Chim would consider?" Hen chimed in, shrugging on her jacket.

"Because! Last week they had that tsunami-slash-flood episode," Buck threw his hand out, pointing at Bobby, who winced. "And then we had to deal with that sewage explosion right after."

"Buckaroo, I really don't think those two things are connected. And I really want to get home and see my wife and kid."

"This week we got a guy with a pipe in his head!"

All three of them glared at Bobby this time, and he offered them an apologetic smile. "I didn't realize telling the director about some of our calls meant that he'd want to copy them."

"It's Hollywood," Buck hissed. "Anyway! That's — if the guy who actually got rebar through his brain leaves the firehouse, what do you think might happen then? We need to wait for a new call for the universe to want to copy."

Chimney gaped at him. "It's a television show, not a curse! No one said the q-word."

"I don't know, Chim." Hen wiggled her hand. "He might have a point."

"Hen, I ran into a lake for you and this is how you repay me?"

"It might be a thing! We've only watched a few on shift and Buck's right, there always is a call that's kind of like that."

"You all want me to spend one hundred and twenty days away from my family because of some stupid tv show?!"

Thunder crashed outside and the clouds opened, drenching the parking lot in seconds.

"Maybe just until the reruns start next week," Bobby said slowly, looking between Chim and the open bay doors.

Buck snatched Chimney's keys out of his hand while he was busy staring at Bobby in disbelief. "Not taking any chances, bro! I'll bring Maddie and Jee over after dinner to say hi," Buck called over his shoulder, running for the Jeep.

"I hate every single one of you!" Chimney called after them, rubbing his hands through his hair and watching Hen and Bobby dash out of the station. "There are such things as taxis, you know!"

A bird cawed and Chimney looked up, his eyes widening when a crow landed on the ambulance. "One night couldn't hurt," he muttered to himself, taking a step back.

God, what a shift for Eddie 'I don't believe in curses' Diaz to take off.

I love how Buck has been emotionally adopted twice and it went so differently both times

Buck: You're going to adopt and love me!

Bobby, sighing: Okay.

Vs.

Gerrard: I am adopting you now.

Buck: Oh god. Oh no. Oh fuck.

sad buck era

hen: buck you have to eat something

chim: eddie would want you to eat

buck: eddie loved food

bobby: yes...he did but still eat something please

Buck initially found Eddie appealing because Eddie is a good dad. They say they'll have each other's backs in Eddie's intro episode, but once Buck finds out Eddie has a son, they are attached at the hip. Buck drives Eddie to Christopher's school at the end of 2x03, and by 2x04, Maddie is saying Buck has a boy crush because he spent all of dinner talking about Eddie and Christopher. In fact, Buck consistently tells other characters how great of a dad Eddie is. Buck has an awful relationship with his parents, so seeing someone his age be so devoted to their son - that is something he finds very attractive. Buck WANTS Eddie to prioritize Christopher. It is what drew him to the Diaz boys in the first place. Buck loves them both so much, he wants them to be together - even at the expense of his own heart. He knows his best friend inside and out. Eddie would never be content staying in LA if his teenage son was still 800 miles away. Buck has to let him go and hope that Eddie and Christopher will find their way back. Buck knows that is not his journey, but he will still be there waiting by the door for them to come home.

karen puts mistletoe up in several doorways of the wilson house anytime hen walks under it she's like "oh nooo look! you're under mistletoe!! guess we have to kiss 👀" and hen rolls her eyes but smiles and grabs karen's waist to pull her close and kisses her deeply, tipping her back into a little dip.

Eddie: *sees Buck wearing fancy clothes*

Eddie [sad]: I see you have a date. Who's the lucky person?

Buck: …

Buck: I forgot to ask you, didn't I?

I feel like episodes 9 and 10 agree supposed to be the mid-season finale, and 7 and 8 were the fluff to give a little break before the angst.

That’s really how it ended? No way that was meant to be the midseason finale

Absolutely love the actors pretending to be firefighters who are now getting to be actors on a firefighter show 😂

Buck is losing his safe place, his home, his family. But so is Eddie. By moving, he is giving up support and understanding and joy. Right when he is needing it the most.

I love all the talk about Buck's spiral. But what about Eddie? What about him going to Texas to see the house in person, to talk with Chris about his decision and being faced with what it all means, to go back. To toxic, unsupportive parents. To no friends. To a son who doesn't want to speak to him, from where he is standing. A son that might not be thrilled with the news. (You said I could come home at any time. But now there is no home to go back to anymore!)

What about Eddie?

Buck has entered his torment nexus. But Eddie is buying a one way ticket to superhell.
