#bucks clothes

[stagefoureddiediaz]

Ok lets try this again - Buck bts mini meta!

So we have the above jumper which I've already written a little bit about how its similar in chunkiness to a couple of others, this one from season 3 - adaptive skateboarding with Chris

and this one from season 4 - games night at the Diaz house

but there is something else I remembered. the colour and waffly-ness actually ties into this jumper from 3x06

and the very same jumper from 4x04/5 when Buck finds out about Daniel.

I've never really connected these two scenes before, but actually it makes totally sense when you think about it - a woman driving around completely oblivious to this person stuck in her windshield - just like Buck - completely oblivious to this massive secret in his life - until the baby box reveals it.

Then there is this new bts

which has me all kinds of 👀👀👀 because this is so not a Buck costume - trust me as someone who has spent far far to long staring at the clothes worn on this show, I can assure you we've never ever seen Buck in anything thats even close to this outfit and thats why I'm fairly convinced that this is for an AU scene(s) of some kind because there is a very specific reason that you’d change Bucks style in this way.

there's been the arguement floating around that this is just Buck dressing up because his parents are in town, but he didn't dress as preppy Buck the last time they were in town

We had this dark grey shirt - very in keeping with Bucks costumes

and this dark purple (almost black) sweater - again in keeping with his other costumes

and then the only other interaction we have is when he's in uniform. Even flashback Buck's outfits are in keeping with present Buck outfits, so this preppy Buck outfit is standing out because it is so different from his usual choices.

I wouldn't normally comment on trousers - its hit and miss as to whether they'll be seen on screen, so while a costume designer will make sure they're in keeping with a character, its not the part of the outfit you generally choose to relay information to the audience - that isn't to say it doesn't happen (we've seen it with Hen a few times) but its less common.

Unless you go very out of character with them - then it becomes intentional and that is what we have going on here. Buck tends to wear either navy, black or grey trousers, but we've only seen him in a colour outside of those 3 colours a handful of times - some olive khaki ones (1x05, 1x07 2x06 2x07 2x17) and then some tan ones in season 2 (2x08). we saw him in some teal green shorts in 5x09 but thats it and all of those trousers are muted in tone. So these bright yellow ochre trousers (which I think are corduroy) are very very loud!

The striped shirt is fitting in to to theory I have about when we see Buck in vertical stripes and it representing Buck being emotionally compromised in some way - if this outfit does sit within an AU of some description, it still maintains that theory - because who is to say how Buck would’ve been treated if Daniel did live - because although it would have meant he was a different person - it doesn’t necessarily follow that that alternate version of Buck wouldn’t still have parental issues!

The green jumper is very interesting as well- its tonally in the same range as the mint green shirt from 6x07 and these two greens sit separate from all the other greens we’ve seen Buck in - those have either been jewel toned or olive toned. What I’m going to be interested in seeing between now and when this outfit appears is if we get a steady darkening of the greens Buck wears. The mint green is very very light - its almost white, while this one is much brighter and subsequently darker and my feeling is that we’ll get to see Bucks growth manifest in a darkening of the green he wears - the concept of which makes my colour theory loving heart sing - because green means growth and watching a character grow as the greens darken - chefs kiss 😎

Then there is the preppy nature of this outfit - which I have to say - really doesn’t fit Buck at all - the shirt and jumper combo - again not something we’ve seen on Buck before - shirt and jacket, yes, jumper and jacket, yes, but shirt and jumper - well this will be the first time (Unless we see one between now and this one being on our screens. I also want to add a little aside about the fact that Buck is wearing his watch - in the past when we’ve seen Buck in long sleeves outside of work, he hasn’t tended to be wearing his watch - I’ve said before how his watch wearing outside of work is sporadic and doesn’t seem to fit into a specific pattern - unlike Eddie’s watch wearing. Well this season Buck has worn his watch ALL. THE. TIME!! and it appears this is carrying on into 6b and its clearly intentional - almost like the Eddie and time metaphor has been transfered onto Buck - which is a whole other post!!!

Ok I’d typed up all of the above before 6x08 aired - I just hadn’t posted it because I finished writing it just before the episode went out and I didn’t want this to get lost in the tsunami of live blogging etc! I’m adding this in because my little thing above about the green shirts getting darker - we actually saw it start to happen last night!!!! that shirt in the return to the ren faire scene with Hen - same tone but a darker shade!! I love you Kenni Wallace you are making this costume and colour nerd very very happy right now!

Buck: Geez it's cold.

Eddie: Here, take my jacket.

Buck: Thanks, I'll give it back tomorrow.

*later at home*

Buck, aggressively inhaling Eddie's jacket scent while curled up inside it: Mine.

DP X DC AU Danny and The Little Dead Girl (Art)

I call this one, I committed to my own bit!

Anyway, have some baby and grown up Curaré from my DP X DC AU Danny and the Little Dead Girl, not much else to say on that.

I think when Curaré gets older while she wouldn’t be an assassin like she is in Batman Beyond she would be some sorta Halfa hero working for Fentonworks so I also doodled that, as a treat. (Also I can’t believe it took me this long to realize how much her canonical design makes her look like megamind i fuckin died laughing while drawing this)

Bucky: My kink is doing stupid shit and watching Buck speed run the five stages of grief as he realises he still wants me to fuck him

I hate you overpriced designer clothes, I hate you luxury brands, I hate you sweat shops, I hate anything wearable costing more than someone’s rent, I hate you designer clothes made to look poor, I hate you “punk aesthetic”, I hate you designer brands.

Woke up thinking thoughts about how much in scenes (with Buck) where Eddie is wearing black he’s intentionally lit so he looks like he’s glowing and shining as if he is the light - the light in Bucks life.

And it’s been that way since the first black item of clothing Eddie has worn - gym scene in 201.

Some other quick examples - buck bi reveal, basketball Eddie, you wanna go for the title Eddie, balcony scene Eddie etc.

Something something about those scenes being moments that are key buddie scenes when there is ‘conflict’ in their relationship. Something something about the darkness being represented by clothing - removable and not part of them and covering up the light - and the light seemingly coming from their skin making them glow - because black absorbs light so you get a bigger contrast!

Hmmmmm 🤔🤔🤔 I think I might have to compile pictures and write a meta about it because I think the level of glow has been increasing through the seasons!!

b*mmy’s losing their minds to “buck wearing tommy’s clothes” in the bts content we’re getting lately when in reality the clothes they’re comparing are completely different from each other.

meanwhile…

Glenn refs Glenn refs. In the nick of time. Kind of embarrassing to tag him as a wizard101 oc. Oh that’s your wizard who’s saving the sprial and getting so traumatized doing it? Umm. Here’s my Deer he works a desk job in Sky City and h*lds h*nds with Buck Gordon 🤗 Anyway go on Glenn, keep trying to make photomancy happen. I believe in you.

just thinking about buck helping eddie around the house after the shooting and how he probably had to help him shower and stuff and though eddie wouldn’t ask for it, buck eventually offered to help him shave as well. and now every time buck sees eddie groom his little moustache he thinks of the feeling of eddie’s clean-shaven cheeks under his hands, and he can’t quite figure out why but he can’t stop staring at eddie’s face.

i need to have words with whoever dressed buck for his date bc what is even going on here??? white sneakers are super casual, paired with more formal shiny black dress pants (look at those pleats!), with a semi-casual button-up polo??? to say nothing of the disconnect colour-wise (the only worse outfits of his this season are the finale fits, but that’s another post). 

he looks as disappointed in himself as i am in the wardrobe department. 

i need to headcanon that he had trouble deciding on what to wear, going back and forth for an hour before finally landing on an ensemble he thought was good [spoiler alert: it was not, in fact good]. for someone who had dressed pretty well this season, this outfit was shock-horror.
