bucktommys (or anyone that doesn't hate them who wants to also show love for other ships) go comment on this article about 9-1-1 couples that was posted yesterday because every comment besides mine is hating tommy or bucktommy :)

Hello my fellow bucktommys ESPECIALLY THOSE OF YOU WHO USE TWITTER

Please change your password and put on 2 factor authorization

Several bucktommy accounts were hacked last night

This confirms Lou was as well

Be careful and be safe

And to those shippers that are doing this? Go to hell.

[sleepwalkingnyctophile]

Imagine planning out a smear campaign, going through the trouble of hacking an actor's account and posting something incriminating only to make it obvious it was a hack because you just couldn't resist your childish pettiness and had to give yourself away by blocking Bucktommy fans and following toxic anti-Bucktommy people while on the account of the person who plays Tommy.

Let the sheer idiocy sink in.

no paycheque is worth this I’m sorry. This is insane.

It’s always a good time to drop ABC a few nice words about this storyline and character.

Because while to some extent they and he had to know there would be trouble adjusting, they might have underestimated the BOBs capacity for jackassery. It’s also not a bad idea for bucktommy bloggers to change our passwords, as that’s likely next. 😕

By the way if I was a showrunner for a show that just confirmed a character’s sexuality and saw concerted efforts to get that character taken off the show by slandering the actor and hacking his account, my first thought wouldn’t be “oh this is a show of passion for a ship! Better make it canon quicker!” Something to consider.

[sleepwalkingnyctophile]

Constantly telling Lou to kill himself while engaging in and spreading hatefulness towards him warrants a block. Let’s not be dense.

[sleepwalkingnyctophile]

Not to play detective but to those in good and bad faith asking why people are saying Lou was hacked, please look at the evidence.

A. It was posted around 2 am on a Tuesday, which unusual.

B. His account unfollowed those who support him/his character and followed those who hate him/his character.

C. It was a snip-it of a Kpop tweet that caused a major uproar last but not something a guy in his late thirties would known about.

D. This happened less then 24 hours after Oliver posted the thank you video with him and Lou.

E. The BoBs have been boasting recently about getting him fired or making him quit as they’ve quote “done” with other LI which horrible flex.

F. It doesn’t look like any other tweet he’s posted

G. Twitter accounts are routinely hacked.

Could have Lou posted that, sure. Does any of it match up with what we seen on his account no, then the answer is he was hacked.

Okay, last one because it’s not anon, and we love a Horatio Caine gif!

Bucktommy nation (and normal 911 fans)!

If you have some time on your hands, leave a review here https://m.imdb.com/title/tt32368273/

B*ddies are review bombing the episode on IMDB, filling the page with their usual anti-tommy hate.

Let's try to fix it a bit.

I've been relatively quiet for the most part but I've seen the constant bullshit that's been happening. It's all performative, pearl clutching and fetishizing but let this be known Buck and Tommy are here to stay so get used to it you fucking delusional toxic idiots #911onABC

[sleepwalkingnyctophile]

I don't know Tim Minear’s social media handles, but I'm sure he has a Facebook account. If possible, please flood his page with gratitude and positivity. This isn’t just about Tevan, but also about his inclusion of queer stories in general. I've expressed my disdain for the unnecessary online harassment of writers and actors, but positivity should be the norm. Especially since the most vocal parts of the fandom are often the most toxic. You can do whatever you want, but I think it would mean a lot to him to see how much we appreciate his storytelling, whether we are old or new fans.

thank god for this show letting Tommy Kinard be a shameless gay man. just so unapologetic. and for Buck to so clearly be into it. and all the potential kinkiness that comes with it. blessed tbh.

[sleepwalkingnyctophile]

It's all because of Buddie. If you replaced Tommy with Eddie, all of their complaints would disappear, even if every word of the script stayed the same.

Tommy is a downer...Eddie is sarcastic.

Tommy is predatory...Eddie is kinky.

We all know without a doubt, Buddie stans would eat up the scenes with no changes except the character.

And no one baited them. Ryan said Eddie is heterosexual. Oliver said he didn't want to do a story where a newly bi man sought out their best friend. Both made it clear Buddie, is currently and with no plans of changing it, just a very close friendship.

I have nothing to add to this.

your homophobia is showing: the date scene in 7x10

I didn’t think this needed to be said but apparently it does. If you’re reacting to the date scene by saying you hated it and that Tommy is somehow the one that switches over to sexual thoughts during a heavy topic, I’m going to need you to a) stop watching this goddamn show until you learn how to actually watch it and b) ask yourself why you’re so upset at two canonically queer characters flirting about daddy issues/daddy kink in a show that infamously introduced one half of this pairing by showing him stealing a firetruck to have a hook-up in said firetruck.

Let’s dive in since you all lack reading comprehension it’s actually just blatant homophobia:

The scene takes place after Bobby’s confirmed to be okay. It opens in Buck’s loft with both parties setting the table for an intimate dinner together.

Tommy starts the scene by asking, “So he’s going to be okay?” Buck replies, “Yeah, they’ll keep him in the hospital for a few more days but everything’s looking really positive.”

Tommy jokes, “Feel like you guys at the 118 should have your own designated wing at the hospital.” Buck replies, “Yeah, I-I know, right?” but he’s visibly upset about something, and he’s trying to be there in the moment with Tommy, but something is plaguing him. What could it be?

Tommy immediately clocks this and asks, “You okay?” This opens the door for Buck to open up about whatever appears to be plaguing him. It takes a beat, but Buck finally admits that he was worried they would lose Bobby this time.

Buck goes on to say, “Bobby’s the father I never had.” Tommy replies, “Your father’s alive.” Tommy’s response serves as a double meaning: Tommy is both reminding him that Bobby is indeed alive and also possibly joking that Buck’s actual father is still alive too. Buck lets out a quick laugh at the response and says, “Exactly,” clearly understanding Tommy’s response. Tommy has therefore recognized Buck’s emotional torment over Bobby, given Buck the space to talk about it, and then ensured Buck could be in a positive place by the end of it. We love an emotionally intelligent character.

Tommy replies, “I have to admit I’m a little bit jealous. My dad and I don’t really talk. And when I was at the 118, I had Gerrard, which did not make me a better person. Come to think of it, Captain Gerrard was like having the dad I already had.” This harkens back to Tommy’s admission in 704 that he’s jealous of what the 118 has become while also giving us insight into Tommy’s background (as well as foreshadowing into what’s to come for the end of this episode and season 8. And not going to lie, I feel like if you missed the glaring bits of foreshadowing with Gerrard, you should perhaps go back and study basic narration techniques. Just saying! They’re beating the foreshadowing over your head if you’d pay attention.) Tommy is talking about a subject that’s obviously difficult though. It’s clearly the first time Tommy’s opened up about his own father issues, and Buck can clearly clock that Tommy’s in emotional turmoil much like Buck was beginning this scene.

Ergo, Buck cracks the joke, “So maybe we both have daddy issues.” Tommy, matching the level of intensity, quips, “I don’t.” They both drink their wine. Buck follows up: “But you think I do.” Buck’s giving Tommy a very heated look here. He’s very clearly laying down something if Tommy wants to pick it up. Tommy, picking up what he’s laying down, replies, “God I hope so.”

Tommy keeps his eyes locked on Buck’s, and a slow closed-lipped smirk starts growing on his face as he takes Buck’s reaction in. The audience can’t see Buck’s response, but we can tell Buck’s grinning/smiling/reacting positively to it.

YES this scene opens with them discussing Bobby’s condition and ends on the two men flirting with one another. What exactly is the problem in that?

This scene highlights where Buck and Tommy are in their relationship. For one, both parties are able to recognize when the other has something they need to say and encourages them to speak while having the emotional intelligence to know when what the other is talking about is perhaps a rough subject to actually discuss. Hence why you see Tommy tell Buck, “Your father’s alive.” Hence why you see Buck turn to flirting when he says, “So maybe we both have daddy issues.”

YES, that means Buck is indeed the one to pivot the conversation to daddy issues and daddy kink, and YES Tommy is the one that matches the intensity of the moment. WHY is that a problem?

Evan Buckley having daddy issues is the least shocking thing this series has confirmed about him. This show literally introduces Buck as someone who’s stolen a firetruck to pursue a hookup in said firetruck, and he does it again in the same damn episode where he proclaims he thinks he’s a sex addict (self-diagnosed). Evan Buckley is canonically shown repeatedly engaging in public sex and quite literally keeps a ring cutter in his kitchen (same kitchen they’re having dinner in by the way!) because he uses cockrings. If flirting with his boyfriend over a kink this site is literally infamous for upsets or disgusts you, you need to take a look at yourself and ask what about two queer characters flirting on this topic upsets or disgusts you. Spoiler alert: it’s homophobia and queerphobia.

Buck and Tommy are queer, and they’re going to engage in sexual behaviors together. If you’ve spent the whole goddamn time criticizing anyone for pointing out that hey, they’re probably having sex by now and that Buck’s holding a toiletries bag in 709 and is therefore likely spending the night with Tommy and are now saying you’re upset or disgusted (or more, attempting to apply extremely harmful stereotypes towards Tommy OR WISHING HARM OR DEATH ON THE CHARACTER), you’re being homophobic and queerphobic. Straight up. Knock it the fuck off and do some work on yourself.

to my mutuals and followers reblogging that post about that scene: I am begging you to watch that scene again. Buck was the one who first uttered the words 'daddy issues', with a flirty smile I might add, clearly steering the conversation to flirty water. Tommy literally only matched his energy.

you can hate this ship. you can hate this character. you can hate that they got to have a scene like this. I get it. it must suck to have to see so much of it. blacklist. unfollow. do whatever you need to do.

but please. do not. spread posts trying to make Tommy a horrible person just for flirting back with his boyfriend in a gay way. that's where I'm losing the respect and admiration I've held for so many of you for years.
