Chris looked over her reflection. Her hair, which she had started growing out before coming out, fell in shaggy layers around her chin (her dad has asked if she’s wanted to clean it up yet, but she’s declined, wanting a bit more length before cutting it). The front pieces were held back with clips Mara had let her borrow that she had neglected to give back.

I am so excited to finish this piece!!

Make Me Write ✍️

IDK if I'm being smart or not, but it's been a hot second, and I wanted to do one of these. You probably know the schtick by now.

For each emoji in my asks, I'll write you 3 sentences. You can send as many emojis as you want (as Oliver says, be sensible). All I ask is you send separate asks for each fic 🫶

Descriptions of each fic below the cut, all are Buddie 👨🏻‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏼

🧜‍♂️ Mer!Buck

☀️ Weather & Time

🎥 Actor AU

🧜‍♂️ A current WIP. Evan, a curious merboy, and Eddie, the recipient of Evan's curiosity, meet as children when Eddie nearly drowns. They form an intense bond, weaving in and out of each other's teenage lives. But when Maddie goes missing and Shannon announces an unexpected pregnancy, life sends them in very different directions.

☀️ oh, my beloved, I think of you constantly. A heartbroken Buck hasn't spoken to (an equally heartbroken) Eddie in years. Imagine his surprise when he gets a random text from Eddie. Hope your coat's warm enough, cowboy. Phone calls are made and old hurts come roaring back to life. These two take the slow road through healing and figuring out their way back to each other.

🎥 Eddie’s a famous Hollywood actor whose personal life is bombing spectacularly. Buck, also a famous actor, is a recovering playboy trying to prove he’s not the pretty faced himbo the tabloids write him off as. Life is finally looking up for him. And then Eddie Diaz comes to 118 Studios. Buck has worked too hard to get where he is and like hell is he going to let Eddie, with his spotless record and perfect ass (not that Buck’s noticed), replace him. Aka the one where they’re actors and idiots ✨

But I need help: comment, reblog, or leave an ask responding to the question

What is an Eddie Diaz-coded song by a female/afab/genderqueer artist?

[shelfthe-reader]

Several Sentences Sunday

Sooo… @super-powerful-queen-slayyna tagged me on Wednesday and nothing happened, and @keeperofdragons tagged me on Friday… and nothing happened.

So here we are, on a Sunday, where things, in fact, did happen.

Here is a snippet on my BangFic! As always, this is Fem!Eddie, and the context is pretty self-explanatory!

Whoever wanted to join the Army in hopes to be stationed in Afghanistan, clearly had no idea what they were getting into.  Frankly, in Eddie’s no-so-humble-opinion, it was ass.  Living in El Paso, Eddie thought she knew what a dry summer felt like. Blazing sun, laying in her yard, clad in only her sports bra and the shortest shorts she could find, and still feel like she was melting.  But Afghanistan was something else entirely.  It was nasty.  The sun was unbearable. The uniform was itchy. And the dust. Eddie had seen dust storms before, but never upwards of two, three times a week.  Being a combat medic, out there in the middle of everything there would be times where she wouldn’t see base for days at a time. Her showers would include finding a relatively secluded area away from everyone and hoping the limited water she had would wash the desert that her head had become.  It was times like these where Eddie envied the men in her squad. Out in the desert, they had it easy. The uniform haircut was a blessing.  Whenever she made it back to base, as soon as debrief was over, Eddie made a beeline to the showers. They weren’t great, but anything was better than a water bottle for three days straight.

I’m tagging all of the authors taking part in the @buddie-big-bang ! No, not by name, but you full and well know who you are!

9-1-1 Fic Rec Tag Game!!

@sergeantchenford (edit as I’m hour 8 of this post: @keeperofdragons has tagged me too) tagged me in this new game they made! I went ahead and copy/pasted their rules:

Recommend a fic (or multiple) for each prompt! And if you want, tag some other readers to do the same. There are no rules against multiple fics from the same author, but challenge yourself to not name the same fic twice 😉. If you want, use the tag #911 fic rec game so people can easily find other recommendations

Please add trigger warnings or rating warnings! This was started to create a more safe way to find new 911 fics to read without risking coming across unwanted and mistagged triggering content!

A/N: I added a couple series on here. They are all complete or 100% readable without the series being complete. The tags I use for the series are the ones relevant to the most works.

Also, if I don’t tag an author but they have Tumble account, PLEASE let me know!!

The most recent fic you loved/bookmarked

Pretty much everything that @tinypeckers / tinypeckers has written during this summer hiatus. When I say explicit freak4freak, I MEAN IT. They are all incredible fics… that deserve their DD:DNE tags.

If you are a writer, the favorite fic you have written for 911 (A/N yes I chose two, and what of it?)

AO3 Femslash Top 100: Round 1

[shelfthe-reader]

To clear some things up:

- My fandom Icon is on BlueSky! It’s of Buck and Bobby!

- As we all know my origin story, but to recap, my grandmother told me to watch it July 2024 and who was I to say no?

- I also will be watching NV with her

- I have two stickers from Redbubble! One that says “Wee woo” in the 9-1-1 font, and one that says “I’m so confused, could you start over?”

- this one was filled on a technicality- everyone is my main ship, I just don’t make content for the rest of them because I’m scared to mess it up

- No. I didn’t read fic before watching, and no, I don’t have a fandom url because I hate sideblogs and all of my apps are the same url

- No, I don’t read BT because Tommy pmo. And not even from a Buddie standpoint- he acts like someone in my life that I needed gone five years ago

- Corrine, the loml 🫶 (though most of anyone on this show are very good at their jobs)

- do yall SEE ME stepping back?

- The perks of working at a small business that sells things you don’t need: you have time to read Rated E Omegaverse Mpreg

- I don’t have a favorite character- it all depends on which arc I’m watching

- I don’t have a “main” space- I use different apps for different types of interactions

Words: 1.3k

Rating: Teen

Relationship: Evan “Buck” Buckley & Bobby Nash

Tags: No Archive Warnings Apply, *mostly* canon compliant, post 7x05, Bobby acts like Buck’s parental figure, coming out, fluff and angst

Summary:

While standing outside of the Grant-Nash residence, Buck continuously wrung his hands together, pacing across the porch. He knew that he didn’t have to tell Bobby about this new development, as it wouldn’t interfere with the job; afterall, they were at two different stations. It’s normal- two firefighters going on a date.

Or: Instead of coming out in the hospital with that kiss, Buck comes out to Bobby, directly.

This was the alternate prompt “Coming Out” for @buckandbobbyweek
