[frightfullytreeish]

I need father brian hot-priest (double-barrelled surname) to be at the funeral and I need him to somehow end up standing with buck and eddie and tommy and just be metaphorically or perhaps literally eating popcorn in a solemn and funerary manner whilst watching whatever the fuck unfolds

(and afterwards he maybe leans over to eddie and murmurs 'I'm happy to see you took my advice' and eddie's like 'who told you???'

father brian hot-priest: it's sort of obvious :)

eddie: *glances down to check he's wearing pants*)

[chronicowboy]

i know we've seen the goodbye so we know this doesn't happen but suspend your disbelief with me here. buck's dog gets really attached to eddie very quickly, so buck brings them along to say goodbye to him because it's only fair and it'd be nice to have the extra emotional support. anyway buck and eddie say their goodbyes, have their hug, then eddie crouches down to the dog's level and gives them all the pets he can. eddie voice. take care of the big guy for me, okay? it's a pretty easy job. just gotta take him out for some exercise when he gets restless and put him in timeout when he's naughty. buck voice. hey now. eddie voice. no but it's a real easy job, bud. you'll get used to it fast. just give him all the love you've got and he'll give it right back. that's all you've gotta do really. just love him. with everything you have. can you do that for me?

[gayeddieagenda]

i am not hardly the person 2 lead this discussion but i do think we should be discussing how the luka trade is affecting (or will affect?? 911 timeline explained 3 hour youtube video essay) eddie diaz, apparent mavericks fan... like look eddie everyone's leaving texas for los angeles... maybe u should too... also how does this impact the ongoing betting odds on whether buddie (and christopher) will be seen at a lakers game in the near future...

[thirdwheelravi]

so rare to have an episode where NO ONE at the 118 is going through it

[lovecolibri]

Spoiler because now I am actually pissed

We joke about Timmy reading fic but that's clearly not true because if he did, he'd know there is NO UNIVERSE in which we want to see Buck's first time having sex in Eddie's house be NOT WITH EDDIE.

We haven't seen Buck explicitly being with anyone really since s5 with Taylor at the beginning of the season. The next we saw SHOULD have been Eddie.

Anyway

[call-me-medusa]

eddie diaz: i’m going to connect with this kid from a call SO HARD

[pluralityofaxes]

One day Chris is gonna move out, and Eddie will be all out of options to smooth things over with Buck once he no longer has an on-hand kid to throw at him.

Hello again @lonestar-s5countdown! I’m very late again but did another deep dive for more redemption stories! (With a lot of focus on TK) I also wanted to find stories that featured Tommy— she gets a lot less than Owen.

Tommy:

We rejoice in our suffering by Jecari: Tommy tries to reconnect with Charles and her daughters as she adjusts to returning to her job as a first responder.

Young love by Jecari: A snippet of how Charles and Tommy’s union evolves from their adolescence.

A little faith by SneetchesToo: A continuation of Tommy’s frustration at not being to have children (yet).

Heaven forbid by WhenSheReads: Tommy’s POV of 3x02 and her worry over TK’s condition.

At the end of the storm by RamblingDisaster73: The events of 3x03 to 3x04, from Tommy’s POV.

Owen:

It feels like an out of body experience by @marjansmarwani: A 2x12 coda that forces Owen to take responsibility for the collateral damage to TK and Carlos.

Catching up with the stars by RamblingDisaster73: Ten chapters of one-shots where Owen talks to Gwyn. (Oh, it also leads into the Grief theme!)

It’s not over series by SneetchesToo: Features Michelle in a more prominent role. And most of all, Owen eating quite a bit of humble pie and (un?)successfully coming to terms with the fact that he might need help.

Forgiven is not forgotten by winterschild: A 3x05 coda, where TK can only forgive Owen for being absent and indirectly (/accidentally) screwing over his life so many times. Especially when his latest date infringes on Carlos’ kidnapping case.

Deep Dive for Redemption:

The long way home by RamblingDisaster73: One of the more concise 3x04 codas that focus on Tarlos’ reconciliation.

Numb by come2gusu: A gritty look into how TK’s detox in California goes. Currently ongoing.

All this and Graceland too by misgivings: An AU where after TK breaks up with Carlos, he relapses and then recovers.

Fall on me by @moviegeek03: Judd looks for the man who put him and Grace in the hospital, and TK tries to intervene.

I’m so tired of being afraid by @marjansmarwani: TK does some introspection into why he’s reluctant to make his will because everyone’s roasting him about it was slightly funny but a lot of it also rubbed me the wrong way. Fear is completely understandable, even if it’s not excusable.

You say your past will cut me by RamblingDisaster73: Both a lead-in to the next theme, Grief, and a Redemption story where Owen, TK and Carlos try to recover from the plane malfunction in 3x08.

Pinned like a butterfly by benjaminrussell: … I discovered this addition to last week’s theme fic recs too late. Sorry, Paul!

You can’t hide from time by @marjansmarwani: With Carlos by his side, TK visits New York and the firehouse team he left behind.

Something for the pain by @moviegeek03: A post-ice storm coda where two families saved by the 126 pays the favor forward.

To celebrate some of the wonderful fic in this fandom, we will be compiling fic recs that fit the theme of each week of the countdown!

This week, the theme is Redemption. Fic featuring characters getting redeemed, characters seeking and earning forgiveness, characters learning from their mistakes or characters proving themselves is particularly on point here! You can also rec any fic featuring Owen Strand and/or Tommy Vega, the two characters we’re putting a bit of extra focus on this week.

If you have fic recs to contribute, make a post and tag it ‘911ls season 5 countdown fic recs’ or tag @lonestar-s5countdown! At the end of the week, we’ll make a post with all of the week’s fic recs.

This is open to everyone, but also tagging some fic readers who might be interested:

i’m a very superstitious person, there’s a few things i consider to be rules of the universe. one of which being the rule of threes. so there’s one thing that— if it comes up one more time in 911— will make me believe in canon buddie by the end of the season, possibly even the end of the episode.

in 2x01 the call that creates buck and eddie’s friendship, where they decide to have each others backs, is helping a man named charlie. They very prominently ask for and repeat this man’s name. Probably not meaning anything at the time but interesting when looking at this pattern.

in 4x13 the child they suspect of being a munchausens by proxy victim is named charlie. Obviously the episode of the shooting, the will, the everything of it all. But also the episodes where rumors have it that buddie was supposed to be some form of canon but blocked by fox higher ups. If you believe in these rumors it starts to be really interesting that both of the victims in these situations share the same name.

so to me, a sure fire sign that it’s happening is if we get an emergency where they establish the victim being named charlie and have buck and eddie take point on the rescue. third times the charm!

[crushedsweets]

What would the creeps do if y/n was a lot different from Bonnie? Like, more confident, quick to anger and WILL cuss out an eldritch horror, and doesn’t take shit from anyone? Still kind with people they like, but the second someone tries some shit, y/n says a meanly creative insult?

I’m assuming this is being entirely in Bonnie’s position from the last ask (including the farm, ghosts, got a grandparent waiting for them, etc) and them finding y/n covered in blood holding a knife in the forest. If so….

They’d all start off the same, with initial shock, confusion, and concern - assuming Y/N was attacked, etc.

For Toby, it depends on the insult. If they’re just being a dick at first “get the fuck away from me, don’t touch me you freak, I’ll killyou too” he’s laughing. Not taking them seriously and even more aggressively forcing the knife out of their hand, pushing them around, telling them to calm down. HOWEVER, If the Meanly Creative Insult targets something specific (his Tourettes, any other of his disorders, his childhood) he’s not laughing. Gets very serious, shoving them against a tree so hard they lose their breath and yanking the knife away, under the guise of “well I had to get the weapon. Wasn’t trying to hurt you. Should’ve listened” . If they’re still fighting and arguing he’s throwing them over his shoulder or dragging them by the legs to the cabin. “Only the operators gonna have you acting like such a prick . We’ll handle it.”

Tim and Brian are similar to the original ask - they’re very used to trying to help people that get violent (Toby Kate clocky Jeff the zalgoids… literally all of them were violent people they were trying to help). So a few insults won’t really phase them. Tim might throw some back while putting papa on the phone, but relatively the same. Unless it specifies smth about their past or the events of marble hornets - immediate chills wondering how they knew that, and then anger cuz wtf. Instead of getting them back home, they’re taking them to the cabin to b dealt with

Kate is identical to the Bonnie prompt - stares, paces, and calls Toby regardless of what y/n says. She couldn’t care less

Clocky starts the same as the original, kneeling down and asking what’s happening, but how she responds depends on how far in her development she is. If she’s early on(aka working at the diner) she’s immediately angry, standing up, cussing them out, maybe shoving them back and threatening them. Then she leaves them there LOL. If it’s later (aka tattoo apprenticeship) then she sees herself in them - young person struggling with something and being aggressive to protect themselves. She tries to maintain calm, and she will try to get them to let her walk them back, but she’s only gonna take so much disrespect before she leaves

I’m imagining Nina starts frantic and Y/N insults her for being concerned. Nina immediately shuts down - just processes it. If Y/N is new to her, she leaves immediately and tells Toby what she found. If Y/N is a friend of hers, she’s cussing them out. “You scare the shit out of me and then act like a total prissy fucking bitch when I check on you? Go fuck yourself you ugly cunt don’t ever come to me for help again I hope you bleed out”. LMAO . She’s really hurt that a friend would be mean like that , and her first goal is to hurt them back

Jack is identical to the Bonnie situation - quiet, gentle, and patient regardless of whatever cruel thing Y/N says. He has a goal to help and nothing is stopping that

Ann is the same, the second they snap at her she snaps back and storms off.

Lulu is the same, asks a question then leaves - doesn’t even process the insult

Dina is killing Y/N regardless . If they’re completely human they will die LOL

Liu is calling 911 regardless

Jane is calling the proxies and staying in the area, but won’t come into contact with Y/N

Sally is the same, watches for a second then goes home to tell Jane

BEN is the same, just leaves cos he doesn’t care abt someone bleeding in the forest

Jeff starts the same, taunting Y/N and getting kinda excited when they start insulting him - means he can be real awful. He’ll throw insults back easily and he can take them pretty well! If he can’t kill then for whatever reason, then he’s just gonna shove them around, pull hair, knock the breath out of them - he wants to start a fight. If he can kill them, he might just mark them as a new stalking victim till he wants to end it

Lazari runs off to jack all the same

[crazy4thewinbros]

911 kinda rant, kind of prompt

Ok hear me out, I hate Bobby dead arc like so much you guys have no idea, but I just, my mind created this thing and I just have to share it.

So Buck is the one to somehow clear Bobby's office at the 118 a couple of days after the lab shitshow, and he files everything that needs to be filed and clears everything that needs to go to Athena, the photo of them in their wedding, the photo of them all when he returned from his brief stunt in Hollywood, the picture of May, Harry and him in a barbeque at theirs, and the few trinkets he had there.

He is sitting behind the desk going through the drawers when he sees just another manila envelope dated a few years back almost 6 years, he frowns, he opens it and freezes because inside are relationship status forms with his and Eddie's names and completely filled, It's not just that, the address update and all the forms they should need to file to the department, the union and even medical proxies and emergency contacts, the only missing items in the forms are Eddie's and his signatures and the date of filling, Bobby's signature is at the end, it feels like a punch to the gut because Bobby believed and now, he was gone without even been proven right or wrong.

He stared at the forms in the desk hyperventilating, because Bobby believed Eddie and him will end up needing these forms and now he was gone, and Eddie was in Texas with Chris and he couldn't see the papers anymore, he was ready to shred them, forget that they even existed because they won't need them, he won't need them.

he stared at the papers, letters going blurry and he couldn't make himself shred them or toss them into the trash, so he put them in to the envelope and decided he will forget he even saw them because it didn't matter anymore, Bobby was gone and Eddie had left too.

So he packed everything and left the office, thanking Capt. Miles from B shift and took the box to Athena's, he didn't mention the envelope or its contents, he didn't give it to her either, he kept it.

Arriving at Edd- his house now, he shoved it in his dresser and tried to forget about them, to forget that Bobby somehow knew without an ounce of a doubt that Eddie and him will end up together.

That no matter what label he believed Eddie was, they would end up together, Bobby believed firm years that he loved Eddie and Eddie loved him. How many times has he denied such a statement, to his own sister even and now... Well it doesn't matter does it? Bobby is... gone and Eddie is straight.

Eddie is straight and even if he wasn't, he couldn't be in love with him, he couldn't.

Bobby thinking Eddie was into men, no less him, was laughable, why would Eddie like him like that? He couldn't do shit to save Bobby hell he didn't even know Bobby needed saving. Why would Eddie look at him in that way when he was a mess, to needy, to selfish to... exhausting.

He knew of course Eddie cared for him as a friend, he made sure of it didn't he? He helped, he made himself useful always but he couldn't keep Chris here in LA, he couldn't make Chris return and now... Eddie was in El Paso with Chris in his new home and with his family.

He stared at the ceiling and made himself forget, because he couldn't break he couldn't not be ok, Bobby said so, the others would need him, he needs to be ok, he... He is fine.

Eddie and him will never need the papers, Eddie isn't coming back and Bobby is gone.

And now I made myself cry.

Forgive me if this is badly written, English is my second language.

[girl-bateman]

AND their doing münchausen by proxy ?? What a fucking treat 😍

Unexpected saviour sibling mention on the 911 show lets gooooo !!!!!!!!!!!

[kaijuugroupie]

911 BETTER give buck a comfort season in s9. I need him and Eddie going on romantic dates that get ruined but they end up kissing and laughing anyway, I need him visiting a very much alive Bobby in his grumpy retirement phase, I need him and Maddie going on a silly sibling low stakes detective heist, I need him holding ALL the babies, I need him to give a by-proxy shovel talk to Ravi when he ends up asking May out, need Christopher to adopt HIM and have him sobbing on the floor OUTTA HAPPINESS THIS TIME, AND A PROPOSAL!!!!!!!!!! A SAPPY CHEESY OBVIOUS PROPOSAL !!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[sharp-silver4795]

Haii

You always say Liu has some questionable morals... Why? What does that mean?

Liu Woods: Psychopath

Hahahah he’s a psychopath. From childhood to adulthood, he’s a manipulative & violent liar. There’s a place I mention that I call “The Den.” It’s basically a hole in the ground that becomes a basement sort of deal that he tortures his victims at.

⚠️ Psychopathy (ASPD) does NOT make someone a bad person!!!! The word “psychopath” is often misunderstood and misused. In this case, I am using “psychopath” in a LEGAL AND CRIMINAL TERM which has a different definition than the MEDICAL term for ASPD. ⚠️

As a Child

He was just violent.

No one ever noticed when he did what he did, though. Until he went to America and had 3 dumbasses watching his and his brother’s every damn step!

The Rabbit.

When Jeff was 4, he saw Liu strangle a bunny. He confronted his older brother who told him it was just a dream.

Of course, he believed Liu…

The Fox.

It was raining and Liu was bored inside.

He saw a fox in the backyard, went to the garage, and then to the fox.

He tied a rope around its neck and pulled it up to a tree, then watch it struggle to stay alive.

The Lizard.

Jeff was scared of lizards as a kid. So, when Jeff said there was a lizard on the side of the house, Liu took care of it for him.

At first, he teased Jeff, holding it up.

After Jeff whined a bit, he put the lizard between his two massive hands and crushed it to death.

7 year old Jeff was scarred for life…

The Drunk Woman.

A party was going on at a neighbour’s house.

A woman was struggling to breathe behind the building as she was WAYY to drunk.

Jeff found her and asked Liu if he should call 911.

Liu told him to, and he went to the car to get a phone…

While he was gone, Liu covered the woman’s mouth and nose to watch her suffocate.

She was dead when authorities arrived.

How they were found out

When under interrogation, the police showed Jeff an old meeting with Liu.

An officer was asking him questions that seemed benign to him. But it gave her more than enough information.

Hi, there! Liu, right? (Yes). Good! I have a few questions. (Shoot). Have you ever gone hunting? (No). Have you ever killed an animal? (Yes). When? What animals? (He tells her). It’s not uncommon for psychopaths- the ones who end up being killers- to start small. They kill small animals and work their way up to people. They like that power. Psychopathy, in simple terms, is categorised by not having empathy under any circumstances. It’s inherited. You know, there was a woman that was called an empty case. It was assumed she suffocated on her own vomit. But, further investigation shows that her breathing was obstructed. Something was covering her airways. According to street footage, you and your little brother were the only ones who went near her. And you were the only one there long enough to suffocate her.

As an Adult

Manipulation

You saw him kill someone?

No you didn’t.

He has to keep his reputation in the Mansion as the innocent bean.

You don’t think he’s innocent? Welcome to hell, bitch! You’re going to The Den.

Pathological Liar

He wasn’t doing anything.

He didn’t shoot that proxy.

Unnecessary Torture

He remakes torture devices he sees.

For example the reverse bear trap from SAW

He’s uses poison gas that was used in WWI (mustard and chloride)

He chopped up an older man while he was still alive and scattered his remains around his house for his wife and kids to find. He had nothing against that man. He just thought it would be funny.

He will offer someone the choice of which order they want the water and boiling wax on their head. However, he doesn’t tell them the water is also boiling hot.

He uses a plank of wood to train them into knowing when they’re gonna get hurt. If the block is to the side, he’s not in the room, if it’s in front of them, he’s in the room, when he kicks the plank down…. Hell’s about it break loose.

Brainwashing

He’s known for breaking people into forgetting their names, families, friends, etc.

He can give them a new identity.

It’s like 1984-style torture. He uses their fears and their pain to make them change stories to not be what they are.

Special Treatment

He doesn’t give a shit about anyone other than Jason, Jack, Jeff, Toby, Cody, Brian, and Kids.

Cannibalism

He doesn’t mind eating people.

Not just in life or death situations. He sees it as a ‘treat’.

Like how people on diets view cookies.

[project-pleiades]

Okay so it’s seems I have brain rot by proxy the way I’m sitting in bed, repeatedly refreshing my tumblr to see the 911 abc updates I’m just gonna binge the show
