I’m pretty sure I said this last season and if I didn’t it’s in one of my many, many, many drafts during last season that I just kept writing and not posting.

But if they were only ever going to have one of them come out. They chose wrong. It would have been so much more believable - enjoyable. If it was Eddie who came out as gay and Buck said “straight” because from the first time Eddie is introduced up until he kissed Shannon I was waiting for it to be said he was gay. THEY are the ones that wrote him that way. Had him not being able to be in relationships with women. They made it appear it was because he wasn’t over Shannon but it really never was…. Everything is a contradiction.

I stepped away from fandom and the show after the finale last year and I have barely watched this season. My only question for Tim and the writers is that I hope that Peter was the one that wanted to leave, and because he wanted to leave, this is how they decided his character would go out. If not, that’s really shitty and a terrible way for a beloved character, your supposed main character, to be fired.

I have written and deleted so many posts. This isn’t really serious. Or maybe it is.

Just what would happen if they’re not be able to air the family feud episode because they completely changed what they were doing?

[911weewoo]

The way the season started to where it is now unless something drastic happens in the finale, I will not be convinced otherwise that it wasn’t a quick and terribly done rewrite.

I never see anyone talking about this but I can't stop thinking about how Lou said in one of the earlier cameos that Tommy is "intervening". seemed like he kind of stopped himself and continued in a different vein but he literally said the word "intervening"... you can say he misspoke but why did that word come out of his brain in the first place? at the time I thought he was going to be rescuing Chimney in 7x06, but that's not what happened. so. WHAT IS TOMMY INTERVENING IN????

Wait a damn minute

We went from Tommy getting in the middle of Buddie…

To Buck getting in the middle of Eddie and Tommy…

To Eddie getting in the middle of Buck and Tommy…

To Buck and Eddie finally being side by side, closer than ever.

Interesting, very very interesting.

I’m trying to think of how I want to phrase what I want to say regarding the last episode and what Ryan has said with what Tim has said and just speculation on my own part and from others.

Attorney here, you cannot make someone your Power of Attorney without the person you are appointing signing before a notary. I’m not in California, but I don’t think it would be that different. But he definitely can appoint Buck as anything in his Will.

there is someone on 911tok who is a certified paralegal and actually tried to figure out if Eddie could make buck his power of attorney. She found out that Eddie could’ve done it and TOLD NO ONE. even buck. I can’t even imagine the idea it’s so insane but this is Eddie who put buck in his will as Christopher’s legal guardian in case anything happened and didn’t say anything for ONE YEAR so

worse would be if he made buck his power of attorney and they talked about it and decided it wasn’t a big deal somehow <3

As an attorney and someone who practiced trusts and estates for the first 10 years of my career, I would love to know how Eddie’s Will signing went.

In my state (and all states are different) you specify who the person is to you and then name them. For example, I appoint my son, Christopher as blank.

And even before that you’re going to take a complete family history. You’re doing that so you know that when the time comes, the Will is not going to be contested.

They’re going to ask about his parents, his siblings and other family. Do they live near him?

What did he answer with when they asked who Buck was? Did he say best friend? Friend? His partner? Would they follow up with since your wife is deceased would your partner want to seek adoption as an option if he didn’t specify work partner.

As an attorney you’re not supposed to question clients choices, but someone says they want to make their friend of less than 2 years guardian of their child who also happens to be in the same line of dangerous work as you….. you’re gonna have a lot of questions.

Just curious if the people who now are saying everything about last episode with Buck and Eddie is they’re such best friends everything about what they did and how they acted and reacted was all just best friends. Normal best friends. Have you changed your mind on the last 6 seasons? Or just now? Because it kind of doesn’t really make sense. If you thought everything they did before wasn’t what best friends did but now it is…?

[911weewoo]

We need to be talking about how Eddie is leaning into Buck’s chest!!! Buck is pulling him in and Eddie is just letting himself be held 😭

[911weewoo]

Thinking even more thoughts now after Tim’s post.

Thinking a lot of thoughts about the cut karaoke scene.

Thinking a lot of thoughts about the cut karaoke scene.

[911weewoo]

We haven’t even seen the episode yet but the point that they literally promoted the episode with BUDDIE not Madney for their wedding. Every single promo added more Buddie scenes than the next. And then go and cut the scene that they have literally promoted for three weeks. At the end of the last episode. That’s what’s not right. They can cut whatever they want, but don’t promote something so heavily and then cut it. It so obvious that they used Buddie to promote the episode.

[911weewoo]

Unpopular opinion but I don’t think Eddie is clueless about his feelings for Buck. I also don’t think the writers should have both of them being clueless about their feelings.

We're not talking enough about how Maddie's "wow..." was her finally putting 2 + 2 together about Eddie.

Their convo revealed that Maddie didn't actually know about Buck's bisexual inclinations. But his coming out to her was entirely incidental and completely beside the point, to Buck.

The entire conversation was framed around Buck's hyperfocus on Eddie.

Maddie knows her brother so well, knows his abandonment trauma, the well of grief and loss he carries around inside of him. One that they share, only he spent most of his life not knowing what it even was.

She knows Buck's yearning for a family of his own, his search for a partner, a great love story. How she would have witnessed Buck getting more and more deeply embedded in Eddie and Christopher's life. While his own romantic life was a mess, at best. How she might sometimes worry he could get hurt, his attachment to them holding him back in finding love for himself, that life partner he longs for. Ultimately, she does understand and leaves it be. Sure, what Buck has with Eddie and Chris is unusual, but they fulfill a longing and make him happy. That's all that matters to her.

But she's always had this slight...not doubt, exactly, but a wonder. That she's missing something. She knows Buck is utterly safe with Eddie, that Eddie is his best friend and would die to save Buck's life, so it's not that. It's just this nagging thought that there's something else there...just out of reach...she can't quite put her finger on it.

Buck being bisexual (excuse me, an ally), was that missing puzzle piece, finally slotting into place.

Long story short, "wow" = "Buck is in love with Eddie, it all makes sense now."

I just think this scene was so expertly written and performed, showcasing all of these layers of story at once. I 💜 911 and Oliver and JLH.

Please miss me with the "Maddie is going to acost Eddie and/or Buck about being in love with each other" takes, like this is a sitcom. The root of this is Maddie's deep, abiding, tender care for her brother and the profound, aching wound of abandonment and unresolved grief that they share. She is going to hold this knowledge so, so gently.

I will always be convinced that when Eddie told Buck that he made him Chris’ legal guardian that it was a love confession. An actual one. Not a not knowing he’s in love with him. And that he would have said more but then Buck told him that he and Taylor got together so he buried that back inside and forced himself to make it work with Ana.
