Buddie is so funny because you go into the show with the assumption that the fandom's interpretation of their relationship is based purely off of everyone experiencing mass psychosis at the same time until you actually watch the show and realize that Buck and Eddie are ACTUALLY that insane towards each other and it's not just a bunch of carefully edited tiktok edits

LMAO remember how Tommy broke up with Buck because he thought Buck would one day leave him for Eddie. Then, Buck and Tommy serendipitously ran into each other at a bar that Buck was only at because he was trying to make a new friend to fill the hole that Eddie's absence left in his life. Except all he was doing on said night out was talking about Eddie and how great he is. And the only thing that properly got his mind off the loss was having sex with his ex boyfriend "as a distraction" from missing Eddie (i.e., trying to replace Eddie with simple friendship weirdly wasn't helpful, but sex/feeling wanted by a romantic partner was). And then Tommy wanted to get back together with Buck because Eddie was gone for good and thus no longer his romantic "competition," so he made a 76-course celebratory breakfast complete with champagne and $200 worth of eggs. But when Tommy dared to speak the truth out loud, Buck got so mad that he vaguely and confusingly equated his lack of romantic feelings for tommy with his presence of feelings for Eddie and basically told Tommy to his face that he doesn't care about him and was only using him for sex.......................that all happened...On 911 on ABC.....crazy stuff.........

Angela on set today via her son 💗

they literally added bobby hen and chim to that last scene to nuke the romance. if they weren't there there'd no be explanation for why buddie didn't kiss

[htkpop]

i also am. expecting that a lot of buddie scenes in the first few episodes will likely be in the company of others before they can really get into the meat of All Of That due to the formatting of the show. which somehow makes it more homoerotic to me

Corinne and Elijah are now mains for the show!

This is Corinne’s second time as a main on the show and Elijah’s first.

“Right.” Eddie nods, heart racing so fast in his chest he’s terrified he’s going to have a heart attack. “Okay.”

I would love for Buck to tell Eddie not to wait up for him because he’s spending the night with Ravi.

Eddie asks what they’re planning to do, and Buck shrugs and says, “Probably going to the bar then going back to his place for dinner and a movie. I’ll be crashing there, so no need to prepare the couch.”

And Eddie’s eyebrows raise as he very casually scrubs a dish a little harder and adverts eye contact. “Spending the night after dinner and a movie. Sounds kind of… you know.” He glances at Buck who doesn’t seem to get his point, so he presses on, “Are you two…” he trails off, making some sort of vague hand gesture.

Buck frowns and tilts his head. “Friends?”

Eddie sighs and sets the dish down. “Dating.”

Immediately, Buck starts laughing as he waves his hands. “No, no. But that’s hilarious. I have to tell Ravi.”

Before Eddie can stop him, Buck already has his phone out and is typing away. Eddie puts the dish in the sink a little aggressively and snatches Buck’s phone away, but the damage is already done when Eddie notices he’s already sent the message.

He still keeps the phone to himself, running around the kitchen and trying to fend Buck off. Which he successfully manages until the phone buzzes, and Eddie looks at the response.

Man, if that’s his idea of a romantic date night, then you two have been dating for years now.

Buck snatches the phone away victoriously but freezes midway through his celebration when he sees the text.

The two of them feel out the room, noting the tense energy in their silence, wondering who is going to break it first.

Eddie surprises himself by saying, “Well, I hope you have a good time,” as he heads back to the sink.

They both don’t bring it up again, but Eddie does think about it the entire time Buck’s gone.

something else important about season one and the entire Abby relationship, is that this first relationship (on the show) for him really sets the framing that Buck uses his romantic partners as some sort of reference photo for what he wants to be. With Abby he *likes* the idea that Abby is an adult with a messy life that's burdened by responsibilities and purpose. He sees that she is carrying a heavy load with grace and he wants to be a guy that's that dependable. That's not to say I don't think he valued Abby beyond that, I think he really did. He just also was very drawn to her being someone that people leaned on. Buck, in the beginning, gets fired because he isn't taking his job seriously and doesn't value the responsibility of his role as a first responder and a member of a team. Up until then he's only really been responsible for himself. By dating Abby, he sees firsthand what it's like to take care of someone else, even at the expense of yourself. Buck wants to be that guy, and Abby is showing him how. I think similarly, the bounce between Taylor and Ali proved that at that point in Buck's life, he *wanted* to be the Buck 2.0 he purported he was. He didn't want to go back to public hookups in bar bathrooms. He wanted the stability that Ali exudes with her travel-heavy important job and straightforward attitude. He got the loft explicitly with Ali's help further cementing her role as someone who anchored Buck, when he wanted to be steady. Her character was shone to have a fun, but still have a grounding presence, which at the time is the balance Buck was trying to find in himself. Then he gets back with Taylor again. Taylor's character is shown as tenacious, hard-working, and determined above all else. Buck at the time, wanted to show that he was 1.) worthy of a love that takes time and effort and 2.) capable of working on something until it's right and not someone who runs at the first sign of difficulty. Both qualities he seemed to admire in Taylor Kelly's personality. Buck's relationship with Natalia was perhaps the most obvious in this sort of framing. Natalia was totally cool and comfortable with death. She was an actual death doula. Buck at the time was actually Really Not Okay with his death and subsequent coma dream, but damn, he wanted to be. He said he felt like Natalia saw him, but really it's the other way around, Buck saw a woman so incredibly at peace with death and he envied that. And finally, Buck's relationship with Eddie's old friend was also about Buck seeing a person and wanting to develop that trait. He looked at the helicopter pilot and saw a guy who understands and knows his sexuality. Who came out later in life. Buck wants all of that for himself. And importantly, I don't think that this means Buck was using any of them for his own personal growth (beyond what most people often do with their romantic and sexual partners in terms of finding ways to change themselves) and I don't even think he does this consciously. I just think it's important to see how Buck continuously seems to find himself in relationships with people who have traits and attributes that he wants for himself, and I think you miss a lot of that context if you don't first see his relationship with Abby. She was the first mirror he looked into and was like "hmm I want to be that, so I must also want that."
