Okay, thinking about this got me weirdly very emotional. Cuz, we've all got our list of favorite queer characters, but we've also got this list of our favorite characters that we desperately wish were queer more than anything. The ones we held out hope for years and years that they would one day be confirmed queer, but never did. How many times does it actually happen that we can say that those characters made the jump to the other list?
Most of the time, queerness is established very early. Either as something that the character has already discovered, or as a coming out story within the first season or two. How often have fans been seeing queerness, and it never getting acknowledged? How often has that been ignored all because no one said it early? Fans loved Buck for so long, and have seen that he's queer, and have held onto that hope that one day it would be in the actual show. How often have fans waited to hear "you were right"?
Almost any time something queer happens it needs to be established fast, and anything straight cannot change. But this did, and honestly, the fact that I can say that Buck is now one of my favorite queer characters, makes me cry. There are so many others I hoped for over the years, but thank you 9-1-1 for being the first to let that hope not be wasted.

One thing I had to do for Back to the Finale: Part III was figure out the state of the Waverider in-story and the biggest part of that was tracking how the rooms changed owners over the years.
It got so confusing that I physically had to map it out and I wanted to share for anyone else who might need it.
The basics: The Waverider has 8 presumably identical rooms that were then modified by Jax and Rip before season 2.
The boxes around the names are for where it's not clear who took which room, e.g. Nate could have taken either Snart or Kendra's room.
To sum up:
Mick and Sara were the only ones to stay in their rooms the whole time (unless one of them swiped Rip's at the beginning of season 3)
Astra got Ray's room.
Amaya and Nate took Snart and Kendra's rooms. Then Amaya's went to either Charlie or Mona.
Martin's room went to Leo for a short time and then either Wally or Rip while the other person got Jax's empty room.
After Wally, Rip, and Amaya left one of their rooms went to Charlie, one to Mona, and one was left empty while John chose to sleep in the library. Gary took over the empty room eventually.
Zari 2.0 got Mona's room and Spooner got Charlie's.

Amaya Jiwe from Legends Of Tomorrow is autistic!
Some of her traits: She often has a monotone voice. She has a very strict moral code. She often sees things in "black and white". She likes things to be orderly and structured. She's extremely loyal and when she forms friendships they are very deep connections. She is "blunt". She doesn't always understand pop culture even from the time she's from. She's very particular what she likes in terms of media and interests.
