inell, who are some of your favorite drama free 911/buddie blogs? i am easing back into this fandom after 4 years and holy shit, i don't recognize the place... so we're starting fresh and i trust you 🖤😂

Hey Nonnie! Welcome back to Buddie! 💜 I joined right before Bi-Buck happened, and I was lurking for a couple of weeks before I finally started to really get into the fandom, so I’ve seen it change in so many ways (unfortunately, a lot of negative ways with ship wars and anon hate and folks looking for reasons to be miserable/unhappy/wanky).

I try my best to keep my dash drama free, especially since I have some friends who multiship, and I want them to feel able to scroll my dash without seeing random hate. I filter liberally, and I also block when necessary. Of course, I’ve also been in fandoms longer than some folks around here have been alive, so I’m just too old for drama. I’ve got bills to pay, and fandom is my happy space! Besides, I also know that a few toxic folks don’t represent an entire fandom, so I try to be considerate. That being said, I’m not a fan of LFJ at all, and I tend to see Tommy as a character intended for specific plot reasons in the main characters’ stories.

I generally reblog from folks I follow, so I’d think any of those folks are drama free (in my opinion). I’ll give you some people off the top of my head, but I know there’ll be people I forget! There’s also recently been a lot of name changes, so I may miss someone. You’re also welcome to message me if you ever have any concerns!

@exhuastedpigeon got me into 911, and Han is very anti drama on the dash.

Hello, dearest inell! Thanks for your patience 💞

“Evan Buckley,” Eddie says before Buck can say a word. His lips curve up in a half grin as he extends his hand. “Heard a lot about you.” What the hell is that supposed to mean? Buck won't deny that he has a somewhat… rich history. One that he prefers to keep buried in the past where it belongs. Unfortunately that doesn’t mean everyone else does. Is that what Eddie’s getting at? Because if he’s here to rub Buck’s previous fuck ups in his face, and gloat about his own perfect existence, well, this is going to be one agonizingly long project.

Hey Inell!

I love how you're so committed to writing! I truly don't know if anyone could have written as many fics as you have without that kind of commitment and also the ability to finish something you're working on (a skill I truly am envious of). Keep writing!!

Mutuals send me a heart and I'll tell you what I think of you!

[dangerpronebuddie]

Madney or Henren

Abby/Buck or Taylor/Buck

Shannon/Eddie or Ana/Eddie

Buddie or Bathena

Buck & Hen BFF or Chim & Eddie BFF

Madney or Henren

Abby/ Buck or Taylor/ Buck

😬😬😬. To borrow from my darling Ryan, Abby can kick rocks. She was the WORST. I know she changed Buck, but she used him and abandoned him. (I could go on for ages). Taylor had an intensity that could've worked with Buck's if she matched his freak. She was mean, I'll always hate her, but Buck got to decide to end that relationship. There was the Jonah thing that lead to it, but there was no uncertainty, and we got Buck's definition of love out of the deal (one of my favorite quotes btw).

Shannon/ Eddie or Ana/ Eddie

Shannon and Eddie hands down. I could never hate her. Bad circumstances and the fact they were both runners lead to the relationship dissolving, but the love was there. I honestly miss her. I wish she had lived and they had got divorced. She could've been a really fun recurring character (and she and Buck would've been friends, I know it).

Buddie or Bathena

BUDDIE. I love the parallels between them but I have never seen a love story like buddie. (And tbh bathenas s7 arc was... eh).

Buck & Hen BFF or Eddie & Chim BFF

Eddie and Chim. Their friendship is so underrated and though they get on each other's nerves a lot it's never serious. Even their bickering in Jinx was great. I want to see more of their relationship, specifically, I want Chim to uno reverse Eddie with "if you love her, tell her."

Ask me "this or that?"

Fuck it Friday ❤️‍🔥😈❤️‍🔥

Tagged by @lover-of-mine @thewolvesof1998 @daffi-990 @bekkachaos with their amazing words

Been feeling insecure about this part of this chapter it’s taking ages to get right, very annoying but I think it’s getting closer now. I’ve redacted who Eddie’s talking to for a bit of mystery. It’s not that deep a mystery just don’t want to share too much but obviously still craving validation 😊😉😂

“No, I I didn’t hurt him, I’m..” This is so embarrassing, honestly what is wrong with him? He has no choice though because she won’t help if she thinks he’s lying.

“…l’m worried about him… he’s been driving me mad for months, he’s just so stubborn and annoying, he’s been trying to summon a demon, who he won’t tell me but he kept getting me and he wouldn't stop. He’s practically killed himself trying to get something he apparently wants enough to die for and he’s never even asked me for anything.

“Sounds like a fool to me.” Xxxx sounds unimpressed.

“Yeah he is.” That’s the truth. Buck has to be the most foolish human he’s met in centuries.

“But you like him.” It’s not a question but he answers her anyway, he might as well admit it to someone and who will she tell.

“Yeah I do.”

She laughs at him.

“Two idiots then.”

saturday snippet of longing and pining and being completely unaware of your own feelings! (feelings are hard, okay)

more of this 🥰

"I don’t know how anyone could not want you.”

Buck stares at him again with that piercing, soul-rending gaze that skewers directly through Eddie’s chest. But then Buck closes his eyes and shakes his head with a sardonic huff. “He’s straight. So. Doesn’t really work that way.”

Probably says something that Eddie’s first thought is, why not?

Why would it matter? Who would even care about sexuality if it were Buck offering his heart? Attraction is made up bullshit anyway. Who actually looks at someone and wants them when you know nothing about each other? Who wants to fuck just because they think someone is good looking? No one falls in love at first sight. It’s romanticized, telenovela fiction. And people lying to themselves because they’re lonely or want attention or orgasms or whatever. 

There’s a lot you can convince yourself of when you’re lonely, heartbroken, afraid you’ll die alone, afraid you’re a failure as a person, a husband, a partner. There’s a lot someone might do to be what other people want. There’s a lot that gets cut out and tucked away in order to be what you’re supposed to. 

All the more reason Eddie judges and dislikes anyone Buck dates. He’s totally justified. None of them get him and they don’t adequately appreciate him at all and Buck deserves all the love in the universe. At the very least, he deserves someone who will love him just as much and just as fiercely as Buck loves them. 

“Weren’t you ‘straight’ until Tommy?” Eddie asks. “Or— not that it was dependent on him, not that he did anything— but you thought you were straight until you realized you liked him. Right?” 

Buck looks at him, stares too hard at him for far too long and it makes goosebumps wash all over Eddie’s skin. The hair on the back of his neck prickles and swishing, churning flips through his stomach. 

“Yeah,” Buck answers quietly. “I don’t think that’s the case here though. Doesn’t matter. It’s not— It’s late. Too late. It’s really too late. We should sleep.”

Yeah. They should. Eddie has a long day of more packing to do tomorrow and another long distance tour with the realtor. Even if thoughts are whirling in his head. Too many thoughts. 

How does Buck know it’s unrequited? How does he know what he’s feeling now if he didn’t before? Did something change? How the hell would Tommy supposedly know if Buck didn’t know? 

How does Buck feel when he likes someone? 

How does anyone feel when they like someone? How do you know if you do? Is there supposed to be something you feel when you’re looking at someone beautiful? How would you know they’re beautiful if all you know about them is how they look? 

How do you feel anything for someone? Especially if you don’t know them? People say sex is better with someone you love, but is that more romanticized bullshit? Probably. Sex is overrated honestly. It’s fine. Mostly. Just. Not what everyone seems to say it is. Nothing earth shattering or life changing. Nothing all that intimate either. Not technically. It’s just distant, avoidant, using each other for a moment of relief. He and Shannon did it so they didn’t have to talk. When they didn’t want to talk or actually be close. They didn’t have to go on dates or bare their souls or anything. They could just take off some clothes. 

Isn’t that what everyone does? Isn’t that the difference between dating someone versus being friends with them? 

Is it supposed to be different? Is that why people like sex? Because it’s different for them? 

Does anyone actually feel the kinds of intense, fervent, passionate emotions that people make up stories about? Isn’t romance just another fantasy? Like fairy tale magic and otherworldly phenomena? Like dragons and unicorns and mythical creatures? It’s a nice fantasy, but still a fantasy. None of it is real. 

Love isn’t sex or attraction or beautiful people being beautiful. None of that is love. 

Love is sacrifice. Connection. It’s blood and battle and being torn apart. Giving up everything because there’s no alternative. Because you’re not whole anymore without the person you love. They’re part of you. So losing them is losing yourself. 

Is that all love is? Loss? 

Eddie reaches out and holds onto Buck’s shoulder. They should sleep. He’s tired, too. But there’s heaviness in his chest and a swirl of despair whirlpooling inside him. It’s small now, but it’s been growing and he needs to hold onto Buck. 

When it’s not enough to just grip his shoulder, Eddie lets his hand slide down until it’s again resting on Buck’s chest and he can gently rub back and forth a few times. He hopes it’s comforting. He hopes Buck knows he’s not alone. Eddie won’t let him be alone. Someone will love Buck the way he should be. 

A wave of envious aching crashes through Eddie’s chest and he swallows hard. Buck should be loved. Buck is loved. Maybe not the way he wants. But Eddie loves him. Every beat, every breath, every single shred of his soul holds love for Buck. It might not be enough, but it is there. Eddie would love him until Buck finds someone he wants who loves him properly. 

Eddie would love him after that, too. Even when Buck is happy and settled and doesn’t need him anymore. 

Buck takes Eddie’s hand and holds it tightly as he closes his eyes. He doesn’t turn back around. And he doesn’t let go. 

Eddie just wants to inch closer and hold tighter. 

There’s something faded, slipping away like tides and wet sand through his fingers. 

Why can’t he keep this?

Why can’t this be the answer? Why can’t Eddie love him the way he wants? Why can’t Buck love Eddie this way? Why can’t they be in love with each other?

Several Sentence Sunday

I’m alive guys.. I haven’t posted much lately because uni is once again kicking my ass but here’s a snippet from my bucktommy meeting at physio fic au. These men have basically just met and I’m already wanting to smush their faces together and make them kiss but we are so far away from that 😭

He manoeuvres himself until he’s sitting again, closing his eyes as he leans against the wall, trying not to feel sorry for himself.

His phone vibrates in his pocket but he ignores it, knowing it’s probably Maddie asking about his appointment. He’s not ready to answer her yet.

It vibrates again and Buck sighs, reaching into his pocket and pulling out his phone. To his surprise it’s not Maddie, warmth rushes to his cheeks when he sees the messages.

Unknown:

Get home okay?

It’s Tommy 🚁

He’s so kind, checking in to see if he’s okay, even though he drove him home. Buck would cry if he wasn’t already doing so.

His hands shake as he types back, adrenaline and pain rendering his body useless.

Buck:

Elevator broke

A series of dots appear on his screen, indicating Tommy’s typing, before they disappear. It’s hard not to feel disappointed.

He tries to force his mind back onto other things, namely getting up the rest of the stairs before his phone vibrates, this time for longer, Tommy’s new contact flashing on the screen as his call comes through.

Buck stares at the screen, mouth dropping open slightly before he rushes to answer, bringing the phone to his ear.

“T—Tommy?” Buck asks, voice wavering as he speaks. He doesn’t have time to feel embarrassed before Tommy is speaking into his ear.

“Are you okay, Evan?” Tommy says, concern evident in his voice.

“I—” he means to say he’s fine, but there’s something about the worry in Tommy’s voice, or maybe just Tommy in general, that stops him from lying, “I’m sitting on the stairs,” Buck admits as another tear rolls down his cheek. He knocks his head against the wall, closing his eyes and sighing, hiccuping slightly.

“Stay right, there,” Tommy commands. Buck’s in too much pain to properly understand what he’s doing.

“Okay,” Buck whispers.

It could be 10 seconds or 10 minutes later, that Buck opens his eyes to Tommy rushing through the doors to the apartment. Buck doesn’t have a chance to question it because Tommy is right there next to him. He has his large hands wrapped around his face, his thumbs hover over his cheeks like he’s considering wiping his tears away but thinks better of it.

Buck finds himself disappointed that he doesn’t, craving those calloused fingers to wipe away his pain. He wants to lean into those hands, let Tommy hold him, and comfort him — so he does, he can always pass it off as the pain making him delirious if he has to.

Tommy doesn’t question it, too busy checking Buck for any bruising, eyes darting over his body for signs of injury.

“Evan…” Tommy whispers, eyes wide and sad. Buck doesn’t like that look on his face, he much prefers the scrunchy smile. He squirms on the step, pushing his face further into Tommy’s palm to hide.

Tommy chuckles slightly, a soft noise that has warmth blooming in Buck’s chest. He thinks Tommy must have some sort of magic healing powers because he’s already feeling better in his presence.

Why do you think Eddie is in a Henley and not a 118 firefighter shirt??

Hey Nonnie! Because he looks hot as fuck in the white Henley and no one wanted to ruin that by altering anything, including the shirt. That’s my professional answer as an Eddie fan. Why ruin perfection when it’s already so gorgeous?

On a serious note, it could be any number of reasons. Eddie just got back to the 118 and they don’t have shirts in his size right now because he’s bulked up some while in El Paso. Eddie is supposed to go back to El Paso but somehow gets pulled into helping as a civilian despite that being a huge liability for the LAFD should anyone find out or if he got hurt (old TM is wanting realism now, after all 🤣). Eddie planned to do laundry and all his LAFD shirts are somehow in the spin cycle when the latest disaster happens so he chooses an undershirt that he knows makes him look hot as Hades for no particular reason at all beyond its breathe ability. The scenes caught from BTS aren’t actually what will be seen in the show and his white Henley will be covered up by his turnout coat. 🤷‍♀️ Who knows, Nonnie? We’ll find out in the next three weeks.

✨✨✨

Thank you for the ask, friend! Continuing on with more Buckley sibling content ✨

His breath rushes out of him, blowing into the pink green glow. He watches in awe as it disperses, making the sunburst patterns on his walls light up, warm and golden, illuminating the space like fireflies.

“You did it!” She praises him as if he had any influence on any of what just happened. He gives her an enormous grin anyway. It feels impossible not to with how content he feels.

“No, you did!”

“Well, you did the most important part,” she argues good naturedly, tousling his hair.

He beams with pride, leaning into the touch. Thankfully, she takes the hint and strokes his forehead with her thumb.

Fic Update: Your Fake Name is Good Enough For Me

Chapter Eight is out now! Second last chapter!

Summary:

Buck returns to Los Angeles and to a new sense of clarity.

Snippet:

Eddie answers the door a few moments later, sleeves rolled up like he’d been cleaning. 

“You’re back?” He asks by way of greeting. 

Buck nods. “I’m back.”

Eddie reaches forward to hug him. Buck hugs him back, relieved. He feels needy. Greedy. Hungry. He needs Eddie. It’s selfish, honestly. He’s already received so much reassurance from Bobby. He shouldn’t need more. But he does. He needs it and he wants it. 

“Are you okay?” Eddie asks.

“I don’t really know,” Buck admits.

Tidbit Tuesday/WIP Wednesday/Fuck It Friday

oops I'm a little late! tagged by @littlefreakbuckley

Here's a snippet from my newest fic I'm working on called '20 Questions' in which Eddie tells Buck he can ask him 20 personal questions that he promises to answer honestly (as long as Buck answers the same or a contextually similar question honestly as well) to get to know him.

--

“Okay,” Buck agrees easily. Twenty questions to crack Eddie Diaz - he can totally do this. “What is your biggest accomplishment?”

“My son,” Eddie answers casually and of-fucking-course this guy has a kid. Mr. Silver Star, beloved by all, stupidly ripped, is a dad. Once upon a time Buck may have been embarrassed by how much more attractive that made Eddie to him, but Buck 2.0 proudly owns his bisexuality thank you very much.

“Oh,” Buck breathes. “I didn’t know you had a kid.”

“I don’t broadcast it,” Eddie shrugs with a smile. “But he’s amazing and definitely the one thing I’m most proud of.”

“I love kids,” Buck tells him emphatically.

“I love this one." Eddie's voice is warm, like Buck hasn't heard it before. He wants to bathe in it. "Your turn."

"Uh. Shit, okay. Didn't think that one through," Buck admits sheepishly. "Um. I guess still being at the 118? I bounced around a lot of places, never managed to stay anywhere long. Until now."

"Well, I'm glad you're still here," Eddie hums. "You're good at your job and the team love you."

"Yeah, okay," Buck laughs. He's definitely better at the job than he was when he first started, but there's a lot of room for improvement. As for the team loving them? Buck feels like he gets on their nerves less now, more like an annoying younger brother than a pain in the ass coworker.

"You don't believe me." Eddie's head is titled slightly to the left and he's biting the inside of his bottom lip the same way he did in the gym on his first day (Buck very nearly jumped him right then and there).

"Not...entirely," Buck murmurs. "I, uh. Might tell you more about my probie year at some point. I was kind of a shit."

"Was?" Eddie teases. Buck kicks him lightly under the table, drinking in the way Eddie laughs and kicks him back.

Tease Tidbit Tuesday!!

Tagged by @diazsdimples who shared AMAZING words that hit like a punch in the chest (in the best way) 🩷🩷

I can't even remember the last time I did one of these y'all. This semester really took it out of me holy cow. But! With only three finals remaining, I might get a chance to actually post some words! (And answer the make me write asks I haven't done yet 😅). Anyhoo, I have... started another wip! Danger Prone Diaz in fact! So, have a little calm before the storm:

“I just don't understand why every time I leave, Ravi's here, and every time I come back, he's gone,” Eddie comments, spraying cleaner on the glass of the locker room. He'd been excited to get to work with Ravi again. It was always fun watching his horrified expressions whenever the team got a little too personal, and he fit in seamlessly with A shift. But the day Eddie announced he was coming back, also the day they all discovered Bobby was alive, Ravi filed a transfer request. Buck ducks his head with a bashful smile and a soft laugh. He gives Eddie that squinty lopsided grin that always makes his heart skip and shrugs as he focuses on cleaning the glass. “Well, that… might be my fault.” Eddie raises an eyebrow. “Might? What'd you do, chase him around with another chainsaw?” Buck shoves at his shoulder. “I did not. I just… don't think he likes you, that's all.” Eddie pouts. He's not too proud to deny it. He thought he and Ravi were friends! “No, no, it's not you,” Buck rushes to correct, but it really doesn't help much. “It's… Well, while you were gone, I might've… talked about you. A- a bit.” Eddie raises both eyebrows now, his chin tilted down as if to ask de veras? Because really. De veras? Ravi doesn't like Eddie because Buck talked about Eddie? “Talked about me how?” He sprays the next section and taps the glass, because Buck has abandoned their task in favor of yapping, which Eddie loves, but they really need to get their chores done at the same time. Buck turns to the glass, mutters something Eddie can't hear over the squeak of the squeegee in Buck's hand. Eddie grabs his wrist to stop his movement. “I'm sorry, what was that?”

Seven Sentence Sunday 🌳🏡🌳

Tagged by @daffi-990 @bekkachaos with very cool stuff underway, and here’s my contribution - Buck as Anne in my Anne of Green gables au, getting into a spot of bother. Chapt 1 is coming later today interact here if you would like a tag when it goes up on ao3

He could haunt people who aren’t kind to others, make friends with a magician and help perform fantastical tricks to amaze and confound people, or he could find out secrets and learn new things, all that that sounds kind of fun so by the time Eddie and Bobby and one of the farm hands find him he’s almost disappointed he hasn’t had time to tragically die of exposure or something and become a phantom.

He decides to keep that to himself though. The worried looks just visible in the gloom on both Eddie’s and Bobby's faces make him think his thoughts won’t be appreciated. Athena is also very clearly relieved to see him once they get home and it’s really rather nice to have everyone fussing around him for the evening and being tucked into bed.

Before he left, Eddie had asked if he might want a visit tomorrow with some work from school. Athena had answered for him and said that would be very kind. Buck didn’t have time to object and actually when he thinks about later in bed he finds that he doesn’t mind the idea of Eddie Diaz coming by to visit with him. In fact it might be quite nice.

tuesday teases

Haven’t been around in a million years but the show baited me with delicious Eddie angst. So. Hello lovely little gay people in my phone. Would you like some Tuesday fic teases?

@tizniz @hippolotamus @chaosandwolves @inell @smilingbuckley @spotsandsocks @daffi-990 @exhuastedpigeon @blutterlie @thelikesofus @ronordmann @dr-shortsighted-owl @lovecolibri @eddiebabygirldiaz @fiona-fififi @thekristen999

Here’s the ridiculous boys after the realtor phone call meeting…

“She probably wasn’t thinking anything one way or the other. She’s just focused on her job and finding us— me. Me, technically. A house.”

No. Not just Eddie. Their house. It would be theirs. Even if Buck isn’t there. Even if he never steps one foot into it. Eddie’s home is still Buck’s home. That won’t change. Ever.

But he can’t say that. How does he say that?

He gets up from the couch and grabs his empty mug. “You still want to make snickerdoodles? Or some other cookie? Or, what did you call it? Cake masquerading as loaf bread?” Eddie doesn’t wait for an answer. He goes into the kitchen and gets out the stash of flour he’s recently acquired.

He stocked up. Just in case. Can’t have the alternative of Buck without his baking.

Eddie sets one of the ten pound bags on the counter then grabs a pack of butter and the carton of eggs from the fridge and finds the measuring cups and spoons in their drawer. The basket Buck made years ago during quarantine is next. It holds the vanilla, the baking powder and soda, various flavored extracts, finishing salt, molasses, packets of instant yeast, chocolate chips, other baking essentials. He takes the jar of cinnamon from the spice rack in the cupboard, goes to put it with everything, but finds Buck staring from the kitchen doorway.

He looks too wistful. Too heartbroken. And all Eddie can offer is a kitchen and ingredients. He doesn’t have anything else.

Was it really that much of a loss? They were only together for six months. Did Buck really want to spend his life with the guy? It couldn’t have been that serious. It never is.

None of the people Buck’s dated are good enough for him.

Maybe Buck isn’t thinking of his ex right now. Maybe he’s thinking about the kid who was like a son to him.

Or the whole Eddie moving to El Paso thing. He seems fine, for the most part. He’s helping. But that’s what Buck does. He helps. He supports. Even when he shouldn’t.

But Buck has bad relationships to get over. He’s not really thinking about Eddie or Eddie’s problems. He’s focusing on a task so that his mind doesn’t wander where it shouldn’t.

Buck would be fine without Eddie. Hell, he’s probably better off. Or he will be.

Eddie asks too much of him. He takes up too much of Buck's time with his issues.

Eddie looks through the little stock pile he’s put together. “Anything else you need?”

Buck looks, stands beside him, and answers, “Sugar?”

Sugar.

Eddie’s stomach twists. It’s not a pet name. It’s an answer. Not a term of endearment. Answer. And of course it slipped Eddie’s mind. Why wouldn’t something that huge and essential be missing from his offering. He should have some though. Buried in the back of the pantry. He finds white, brown, and confectioner’s, and adds them to the supply. “All yours. Whatever you want to make. I’ll run to the store and get more if you need anything. We should have plenty of flour though. I got you five bags.”

Buck’s head snaps toward him. “Five bags? You got me five bags of flour? Like, two pound ones, right? Or the five pounders?”

Eddie shakes his head and gestures. “No, the tens. Like that one.”

“You bought me fifty pounds of flour?”

“Well, you’re the one who decided his coping mechanism was snickerdoodles and sourdough. I’m just being supportive. Since you’re my wingman and I’m yours or whatever you said when you stole my tablet and my realtor call.”

Buck huffs but smirks. “More like saved your call.”

More like saved Eddie’s everything but who’s counting?

michelle's buddie fic recs: week 33

i've been reading so many brilliant fics lately and decided i wanted to share some of my favourites in a little rec list! i'm hoping to make this a weekly thing to share some extra love for the amazing authors of the 911 fandom <3

this is a mix of fics with all ratings, so some include NSFW content. please take a look at both the ratings and the fic tags before reading!

if you come across something you like in this list, remember to show some love to the author by leaving kudos and a comment! and with that, here's a small peek at my ao3 history this week <3

it hurts to hope for more | 42hrb/@exhuastedpigeon | 15.7k | M

Buck wants to be a dad, it takes a couple break-ups and a major non-romantic heartbreak for him to figure out that maybe he already is. definitely take a peek at the tags before reading but this is the most beautiful exploration of buck's desire to be a father + his relationship with eddie and chris!!

Eddie has been a member of Paranormal Research Group for nearly four years after being recruited during one of their investigations. During that time, he’s found a job he enjoys, created a family that cares about him, become an unwilling reality TV star, and fallen in love with his best friend and partner, Buck. okay so admittedly i am a chapter behind on this one but i'm so excited to read it like literally the tab is open i am ready!! i'm so intrigued by the paranormal research part of this fic and the buddie is just brilliant!

meet me where the tide comes in | iinryer/@iinryer | 4.2k | GA

a 3+1 fic about eddie getting kissed on the head i will never not love a head kiss fic tbh it's one of my biggest weaknesses, and this is no exception!

pivot tables | rainbowninja167/@rainbowtitania | 10.2k, ongoing | E

Buck learns that Eddie's never had a prostate orgasm. Clipboard sex ensues. this is funny and hot and sweet and so very them. it's ongoing and the two chapters that are up rn are absolute gems! the google form bit is my favourite <3

something to hold onto | foxwatson/@eddiediazes | 5.2k | T

the one where frank tells eddie he should work on letting himself want things, and eddie starts by cuddling with buck the absolute softest fluffiest cuddling fic. an immediate favourite!!

somewhere to stand and stay | teaspoon/@standback | 8.3k | E

in which buck accidentally passes his eddie-mentionitis to jee-yun, eddie grows a mustache, and buck realizes he wants to have eddie's babies. there's the cutest jee-yun ever, eddie's stache, a feelings realisation, and a breeding kink?? literally what else could i ask for. it's nothing the answer is nothing this fic is everything

waking the witch | lesbianrobin/@lesbianrobin | 7.8k | T

According to historians, seiðr was a traditionally feminine religious practice among the Old Norse. According to Eddie’s mother, seiðr is the birthright of a woman and a woman only, and Eddie is an aberration. i am such a sucker for magical realism fics it's honestly not even funny. but can you really blame me when the magic elements are incorporated as brilliantly as it's done here? just. the floating <3
