#but he doesn't want to be mad he just doesn't trust Buck all that much at the moment

[nyx-umbrakinesis]

Imagine you are laying in bed with Vox and you know he is charging/asleep and you are trying to do your walk of shame/pride and you pull out your phone to call for an Uber/taxi and when you look at your screen it Vox going "Baby come back to bed"

This ended up nsfw lmao Vox x Reader, CW: vagina fingering, and p in V sex.

You slide out of bed, looking over your shoulder to make sure Vox's screen is still dimmed and his eyes shut.

Quickly gathering your clothes and heading out through the hauntingly quiet halls of VoxTek, footsteps echoing as you scramble to call your ride.

Fuck you knew it was a mistake to sleep with your boss, fuck fuck fuck, what were you going to do? What was he going to do? Fire you? Maybe you should quit.

Your mind whirrs as you get in your ride... Odd you hadn't called for a limousine but you checked the name with the driver and he said something about an upgrade so you shrugged assuming other drivers were too busy or something.

You get in and start doomscrolling your phone to try and calm your nerves, fidgeting slightly as you feel Vox's cum trickling from you, fuck you'd forgot your panties, adjusting your skirt uncomfortably, glad of the privacy screen you look back at your phone and yelp nearly dropping it and Vox's face appears on the screen.

Vox: "Babydoll what are you doing? You should come back to bed."

His voice is so assured you almost agree, he always had something about him that mad you want to agree to anything his said, despite your own self imposed rules about not getting attached to folk down here and only having one night stands.

You: "Sorry sir, this was a mistake, we shouldn't... Won't be doing this again... I understand I need to look for a new job tomorrow."

Vox's face frowns, and you sigh with relief thinking he's going to agree but you shriek when suddenly with a bolt and a zap to your hand he's suddenly sat beside you, having travelled through your phone.

You blush in mortification as he's still utterly bare.

You: "S-Sir... -"

Vox: "Oh no Doll, I've found something I like, and I don't give up my toys so easily, so I'm going to convince you to come back with me now, and you're going to be a good little Doll and TRUST me."

Blinking as you feel slightly dizzy, you whimper as you feel his hand sliding up your thigh, and your body is oddly limp as he spreads you open without resistance, hiking your skirt around your waist, his eyes glued to the sight of his cum dripping out of you.

Vox: "Fuck Babydoll, that's so hot. Just waiting for me really weren't you, left me a parting gift and everything."

You: "I-I never do more than one night stands."

Vox: "That's because you've always been mine, and those other idiots were too dumb to chase soothing so damn perfect."

You can't respond as his tongue eases inside your mouth and his fingers start sliding through your folds simultaneously. You hips buck and a needy whine escapes your lips.

Vox: "Now let's see how much convincing you need to come back and stay."

Your hips arch and your chest strains as he rubs teasing circles around your clit.

You: "Vox..."

Vox: "That's right Babydoll, thays exactly how you should be saying my name."

Vox keeps rubbing you, his mouth marking your shoulder as the shoulder on your shirt is ripped, but you can't think, can't mind it as he drives you closer and closer to your peak.

The squelch of his fingers sliding into you is embarrassingly loud and he chuckles against your neck, which is bent at such an odd but accommodating angle.

Your moans increase as his fingers fucks you more relentlessly now, your clit feeling puffy and swollen as his thumb doesn't stop tormenting it too.

You hand grabs his wrist for grounding and you feel the flex of his tendons and muscles at work as he drives his digits deep inside you.

You : "Oh fuck."

Vox: "Don't worry, Doll, we will, again."

Your other hand is grabbed and placed right on his hard cock, the rigid member throbbing in your grasp and you cry out as your fall apart all over Vox's fingers.

Twitching and spasming, you swear you hear him gasp as the grip of your hand on his cock matches that of your cunt on his fingers.

Vox: "Perfect little Doll, now you're coming home with me aren't you, and you're going to be a good Toy and not leave."

Absently you nod, and don't even notice as you end up within moments on a plush bed, clothing shredded, and crying out his name once more as his cock starts fucking his own cum even deeper inside you.

Vox: "Trust me, Babydoll, you're staying right here where you belong... Mine."

*The driver had been hired by Vox and was literally circling the streets, that's why they never arrived anywhere 😂

Fuck it Friday!

I was tagged by @spotsandsocks @wikiangela @daffi-990 @dangerpronebuddie @steadfastsaturnsrings thank you.

It's barely still friday for me, but I've been writing the Buck proposes to Natalia and picks a fight with Eddie fic, and I kinda wanna share this snippet so I will lol prev snippet.

“Can you pretend you're not mad at me for a second?” Buck begs, and Eddie gives him a disbelief look. “What do you want from me, Buck? Because I’m not a good enough friend for you, so what are you doing?” “I deserved that,” he mumbles, looking down, and Eddie huffs.  “Yeah, but I didn't!”  “Eddie,” Buck tries, but he shakes his head. “No, okay? I needed a minute to get on board the stupidity of you wanting to marry someone you’ve known for six months, who left you before, and I didn’t deserve you accusing me of being a bad friend.” “I didn’t get why you needed time to get on board,” Buck mumbles, voice as small as he feels under his gaze and he just looks at him like he's crazy. “Because I’m in love with you, jackass,” Eddie snaps, breathing heavily.

No pressure tagging 🩷, everyone please consider yourselves tagged for inspiration Saturday if you did this already: @eddiebabygirldiaz @bucks118 @honestlyeddie @try-set-me-on-fire @watchyourbuck @housewifebuck @wildlife4life @giddyupbuck and you if you have something to share 💜

[warpedpuppeteer]

Please watch

https://x.com/bucksdaylight/status/1800876967061008885?s=46

Okay this damn video. A couple of things.

It's canon that Buck baked cookies for Christopher's class?? Buck has gotten Chris ready for school. Buck has cooked meals for both Eddie and Chris multiple times. Buck has helped Chris with his homework. Buck takes Chris out all the time. Buck has given him life advice. We don't see Henren or Athena and Michael doing those things daily either does that mean they're not the parents? 🧍🏽

I don't know why they think Chris calling Buck 'dad' would in any way or form take away the importance of Eddie being his biological dad. This person seems to think someone can only have one dad in their lives. Step-parents exist? Queer parents?? Foster parents?? They're not any less because they're not your biological father? Some biological fathers don't even deserve to be a father.

They also seem to think you're only a parent if you both do the exact same things for a kid, which is not true at all. Parents have different roles they play and different sets of responsibilities. One parent will be more into the emotional aspect and the other might handle day-to-day things. One parent might have a career that doesn't allow them to spend as much time with their kids as the other. Yeah, some parents might share all the same responsibilities but mostly they don't! This is so common in ANY family. You're not less of a parent if you don't make breakfast for your kid to school lol.

When you tell someone "there's nobody in this world I trust with my son more than you", in this world, that is beyond any fun uncle territory. That is a co-parent.

Chris ran to Buck first when he was mad at his own dad. Chris most likely has Buck's address memorized because he called Uber. Chris didn't want to talk to Eddie but was willing to talk to Buck.

I'm convinced people like these watch a completely different show than the rest of us because Buck's involvement in the Diaz family is NOT just as a fun uncle. The Will itself is the biggest proof (despite their clown ass dismissing it). You don't name the 'fun uncle' as a legal guardian. You will choose someone who you know will step into the role of a parent for your child; someone who will take over all of your responsibilities as a parent in case something happens to you. If you wanna' see what a fun uncle looks like then look at Chim with Denny. Look at Buck with Jee-Yun. That's fun uncle.

You don't have to be romantically involved to be a co-parent but the fact that they're saying even if they date he won't ever be Chris' dad?? Reeks of homophobia and hetero normative bs if you ask me.

Also I hope the last episode was a slap to their face because 'fun uncles' don't get that involved in family matters. Eddie's parents didn't even ask why Buck was there 🤷🏽

They can say whatever they want but it doesn't negate canon. Buck is co-parenting with Eddie. Buck will never be the dad that is Eddie because that belongs to Eddie, true. But he can be another dad to Chris and it doesn't make him any less of a parent for that.

[alienoresimagines]

You know how Charles Leclerc (F1 driver) once went to a restaurant and took a picture with someone who ended up being a criminal wanted by Interpol ? I'm thinking this but make it Clegan (modern AU) aka

John and Gale are in an established relationship and trust each other completely, hence why Gale has no problem letting Bucky go clubbing because he knows the other would never do anything with how in love they are. John knows Gale isn't really comfortable in clubs so even if he sometimes manages to convince him to come with him because there's nothing better than spending time with Gale, sometimes Gale'd rather stay home and that's okay too. Bucky gets to spend his energy dancing and socialising, Gale can spend his night at home in the quiet after a long day and it all works out.

On those occasions, Bucky always makes sure not to drink too much and to come home before 1:30-2:00 since he knows Buck always waits for him to come home to go to sleep. A few times he's loses track of how many glasses he's in but that's only when he has friends he knows there (aka Brady or Curt) to crash at their place and send Gale a text. This isn't one of those occasion.

The night is going very well, Bucky has a lot of fun dancing and chatting around. At some point, he starts talking to another guy (thinking of Haussmann cuz why not) who he hits it off with immediately (purely platonic from John's part though because he has Gale and Gale is absolutely all he needs or wants). They talk about baseball, the music, and John thinks that this is a very nice fella and he's just a bit tipsy so when Haussmann asks if they can take a picture to remember the good night, Bucky agrees and posts it on his Instagram story

He comes back to Gale at around 2 a.m., he talks to him a bit about the nice guy he met and they go to sleep. But when they take their breakfast, Bucky freezes then frowns looking at the news. When Gale asks him if something is wrong, Bucky shows him an article of a criminal wanted by Interpol being caught near the club John was at the night before and says "That's the guy I was telling you about", all confused and a bit lost because John really thought he was good guy

And, well... Gale just loses his shit and loses it even more when Bucky tries to play it as a joke. Gale's an anxious mess, googling who that guy was to know what he'd done, and thinking about all the what-ifs, refusing to let Bucky out of his sight while Bucky lost his footing a bit because he's always had a good judge of character ? He just doesn't know what to do with that experience but eventually they have a fight when John tells Gale he goes clubbing a month after

John doesn't really understand why Gale is so worried because nothing happened at all which only makes Gale more mad but don't worry they'll work it out and hug :)

Just maybe, it'll be Gale convincing John to spend a quiet night in more often than the other way around now

Rant about all the Bi-Buck Arc hate surfacing.

Made the mistake of scrolling through comments on Instagram surrounding 911 and the cast.

I need to blow off steam, so this is gonna probably start harsh.

While there was so much heartfelt appreciation for Buck's storyline, the negative comments kept stealing my attention. I'm so tired of hearing(reading) that people think the whole show is ruined because two grown men kissed. Like, get the fuck over yourselves already. You don't agree with the relationship, you're just gonna have to deal with it the same we've dealt with Buck and Eddie's half-assed, flat, forced heterosexual relationships for the last 7 years, okay?

They all want to justify their biphobia/homophobia by saying that it's "forced" or it "doesn't make sense," or that they "never saw Buck even hint at it and it's just pandering to fans." Like, bitch, welcome to real life. If you're a real fan of this show, and you watched from the beginning, you know Athena and Michael's marriage ended first thing when he came out as gay. A muscular, "straight", black guy with a wife and two kids who'd been in the closet/denial his whole life, came out to his family, and none of them saw it coming, even if they might have suspected "deep down". This shit happens every day, okay? They're all mad cause "if he was gonna be gay, they should have made him gay from the beginning". Why? So you could form your opinion of him based on who he's attracted to? Why does this bother you so much. You were okay with it when it was Michael and Hen cause you knew from the beginning and they were your token gay characters that you've just learned to "put up with" to appease the rainbow crowd.

And it's not even the ones who are just straight up, like "it's wrong"/"it's a sin"/"it's gross", etc. that bother me the most. It's the "I don't care, you do you, but don't shove it down my throat", people that make me mad. Why is simply witnessing a queer person or relationship "shoving it down your throat"? Y'all realize they exist in real life too, right? Like, personally, I have family, friends, co-workers, bosses, who are all apart of the lgbtq+ community, and I'm from a smaller suburban/rural area of Ohio. Those are just the people in my life who are out. Why is seeing them represented in modern media so bad? This isn't covid, it's not fucking contagious. If it was your brother, your cousin, your best friend, would it be okay then? Both of my brothers have only ever dated women, but if one of them came out and said "hey, I think I might like guys too," I'm not gonna throw a fucking fit and invalidate them by telling them it's not possible because they've only ever dated women. No, I'll thank them for trusting me, and gush to them about boys because I never had a sister to do that with.

Every time I read those comments, all I can think is, you just proved that you're not a safe person to be trusted if someone in your life wants to come out.

Just, how do you give up on an entire show after one kiss? And then claim that you don't have a problem with it? You can't have it both ways. If it didn't matter to you, you wouldn't react so strongly and so negatively to it. 911 and ABC's intention isn't to question your sexuality. You don't have to worry that you're suddenly going to have to kiss Buck too, okay? Chill.

The whole "Buck has only ever slept with women" and "suddenly he's gay" responses are exactly why this storyline is so important. So many people to this day refuse to acknowledge sexualities outside of straight and gay. Why is it always, "made gay"? It doesn't have to be one or the other. It can be both, or neither.

I say this with the experience of having a mom who's still in the "I don't care as long as I don't have to see it" camp. If seeing it upsets you, you've got a problem. If it really doesn't matter and you're cool letting everyone be themselves, seeing two men together should be just as accepted as a man and a women together. Unless you're also saying we need to stop portraying men and women in romantic, sexual relationships together with kissing scenes or more graphic ones, then you can't rule with a double standard. Me and my mom loved watching Teen Wolf together, but any time there was a scene with Danny kissing another guy, she'd get uncomfortable. She even told me once, that she didn't think they should show scenes like that but she wasn't sure why when watching het couples together didn't make her feel the same way.

Safe, sane, and consensual. As long as they follow that, and are happy, why can't you just be happy for them?

If you're old enough to have been following along with this show, you're old enough to know that everyone is different. And life as an adult is about opening yourself up to the outside world and learning about what makes people different. From race to religion to sexuality to nationality and beyond. Your views, beliefs, ideologies, etc, are not the only ones that matter. Getting and giving acceptance goes hand in hand.

I get it to a certain extent. Coming from a different time and all that, but it just means you've had more time to learn. Being stubborn and holding onto what you were brought up in doesn't mean a whole lot to me if you refuse to open your mind up as an adult to look beyond yourself.

Okay, I'm done now. That felt chaotic, but I feel better. If you've made it this far, thanks for coming to my TED talk☺️

If Easy Company is in a Zombie Apocalypse, what would be their choice of weapon and how will they fight?

1. Dick Winters

2. Lewis Nixon

3. Harry Welsh

4. Ronald Speirs

5. Carwood Lipton

6. Buck Compton

7. Don Malarkey

8. Joe Toye

9. Joe Liebgott

10. David Webster

Uhhhhhh last zombie media I consumed was Last of Us and there wasn't really much? zombie fighting in it (bc the focus was on the human condition)? so I am... gonna valiantly try.

1) Dick Winters - I mean. The man wants to be in control at all times. He has multiple weapons for sure. Rifle, of course, classic. But he has multiple knives hidden on his person and an emergency pistol in his belt. He probably prefers the knives + stealth, though, especially if zombies are attracted to sound. If he can kill quietly and quickly, he will. But he just strikes me as the kinda person who just. Would avoid places like cities or crowded towns in the first place and be very strategic about where they'd go? Sure, it's inevitable that you'd run into some festering, shambling corpse somewhere while hunting for supplies but if he has a choice, he will look for the road of least resistance. Even if it'll take twice as long.

2) Lewis Nixon - man's still alive? Dude, the boy has no will to live as it is. He barely survived the first wave by the skin of his teeth. Probably missing a hand after he got bit and Dick refused to watch him turn or murder him. Lewis did not fire a single bullet during the war what makes you think he'd be the same now? He has a knife. That's it. He barely knows how to use it, doesn't want to use it. When in the thick of an attack with the group, he's always in the middle, surrounded by the others, or at the back, where he's most protected. It's a group choice, because he's better at logistics and keeping everyone together. His whole mind is a map, he knows where they'd be safest for a time. Really good at sweet talking and trading with other groups too. He spends half the apocalypse drunk as all hell, but he's otherwise useful. When alone vs. zombies, he'd rather take his chances running.

3) Harry Welsh - something you can find in a gardening shed, probably. A machete? Or a pair of gardening sheers? something that, when you look at it, reminds you of home and is in great juxtaposition to all the gore dripping from it. maybe even a kitchen knife. or, if you want something really fun, a fireplace poker? or the body of a lamp. those long thin iron ones with a strong metal base? sans bulb and shade, dripping gore everywhere. he swings things around aimlessly, whatever gets caught in his path is an unlucky son of a bitch. there's a method to the madness, of course, but... well. even he doesn't know what it is just yet.

4) Ronald Speirs - my dude was in a military base when shit went down, buddy's in a TANK. ok, I kid, but yeah. Rifle. and various pistols........ lowkey? could see him as one of those. end-of-the-world conspiracy theorists pre-apocalypse, who was very much vindicated when the dead started to rise. man is THRIVING in this apocalypse, because he's a weirdo like that.

5) Carwood Lipton - huh. probably a repurposed javelin or something? i hesitate to say sword, because he's doesn't strike me as the sword type, but he definitely strikes me as a 'hit something very hard until the head caves in' kinda guy? or tbh just something boring and reliable, like a sawed off shot gun. he has only a limited number of bullets, so he's not gonna be using it a lot. I imagine when it's manageable, he's using the OH I KNOW. HE HAS AN AXE. YES. boy's from virginia he's a lumberjack for SURE. and that was the first thing he picked up the second the hordes started advancing. he uses the axe when it's manageable, but when the going gets tough, he gets everyone behind him and goes to take out as many as he can with his shotgun. but he works best with a team who has multiple other weapons, for sure. i could imagine him taking the forefront, whacking some zombies, and trusting explicitly those behind him who're offering support thru gun power, not to accidentally shoot him with a stray bullet while he's taking down zombies close range. it takes a lot of trust to do this, I feel. and he has a lot of it. maybe too much.

6) Buck Compton - BASEBALL BAT WRAPPED IN BARBED WIRE. NEED I SAY MORE. probably has a few grenades on him as well that he scrounged up. he's got a wicked aim.

7) Don Malarkey - man's still alive? he's barely holding on. he had a gun, but they took it away because they feared he was getting suicidal. he gets something back later on, maybe a revolver, but only a limited amount of bullets. he has a small k-bar knife. but that's about it. sometimes, a very primal rage takes over him, and he can do some damage with just his bare hands, but those moments grow fewer and farther between the more they go on. ya know? life's hard in the apocalypse. before all that of course, he used to be real good at mixing gunpowders and making home made pipe bombs. but ever since skip died. well.

8) Joe Toye - mans has a SWORD and you fucking KNOW IT. it can be anything your heart wants. a katana? sure! a broad sword? whatever you say goes babey! a fucking... claymore? YES!! ALRIGHT!!!! I'm too enthusiastic about this bc I am not above admitting I find Joe's arms hot. all I'm saying is those arms? made to swing around a sword. yes they are. and he's a fucking pro at it too, you just know he is. i dunno if he has his amputation before, or during the end of the world, but both paths have many implications to them, and they'd be interesting to explore.

9) Joe Liebgott - SO FUN FACT ROSS MCCALL WAS ACTUALLY IN FEAR THE WALKING DEAD his character gets shot and killed by Marines and then he turns into a zombie. poor guy got his throat slit. he just wanted to help :((( anyway. Lieb's designated get away driver of the group. his car is the weapon. he's run over HORDES of zombies before, and he'll do it again! he prolly keeps like a small handgun as protection when he's waiting outside for the rest of the group, keeping the engine going in case they need to make a quick getaway.

10) David Webster - a MIRACLE this boy is still alive. he took archery as an extra curicular while he was in Harvard, and he liked it enough to keep up with it until his 3rd year, when it all started. man is constantly picking up arrows after himself. scrounging for new ones. I say... in formation he's definitely at the back, with Nix and Don and they cover for him a lot since he's long distance. but in a pinch he can whack somebody good with his bow. one of those heavy duty hunting ones, too. on his own... well. he probably sticks to high places, or hidden spots where he can get a jump on zombies or anyone else, before they can get a jump on him.

[matan4il]

I hated the finale. Yes, I’m disappointed about the complete lack of Buddie, but mostly I’m just mad at how they sort of did Buck dirty. Almost all of his character growth over this past season just went out the window the instant he asked Natalia to help him pick out a couch. He said all of his couches came with past girlfriends and he wants to find one he likes and spent ALL SEASON with this mindset and then all of a sudden just decides that this new girlfriend is gonna pick out a couch as well?

They also very abruptly ended the sperm donor plot line. So he’s just like perfectly fine now with being a donor not a dad? He went from worrying about the whole situation to acting like he almost couldn’t care less if he saw this kid again or not.

Idk, maybe it’s just me but the whole episode was extremely rushed and, in my opinion, completely rid of any character development that Buck had throughout the season.

Hi lovely!

Trust me, I very much feel you. Like I wrote in my 618 meta, I agree this ep felt very rushed. I'm also with you on how, at the end of the day, the point was supposed to be for Buck to find a couch that HE is happy with. That he doesn't need a gf's approval and say when it comes to the couch that's meant to serve him. That it's supposed to be HIS choice. Then he turns around and asks a new gf that he barely knows to be a part of this choice. IDK why, because this really does go against the things they explicit set up in 601, and is presented as if it's progress. As if the whole point is to get to have a couch again, not to have a couch that HE CHOSE.

When I take this together with Eddie's barely there story with Marisol, I guess it feels like someone decided that if this might be the last ep, then everyone MUST end up in a r/s, no matter how underdeveloped, no matter how much it goes against previous plot points, and preferably the r/s should be an opposite sex one. It just felt very heavy handed in how heteronormative it all was. And maybe for the sake of shoving Natalia in, they resolved the whole sperm donor thing in a very clunky way, too. I guess my main reason for my sense of not knowing to explain the finale is that I have no idea when they found out 618 might be the show's finale, so IDK to what a degree the ep was shaped by last minute decisions that derailed the original ideas they had for these story arcs, or did they go into s6 believing it might be the last season, and this was sincerely how they envisioned the end of the show, what they were building towards.

Either way, I'm just grateful that it's not the last season. That we do get more time with our favorite firefighters. That ABC will have the chance to give them more chaos and more love together, and hopefully, when the time comes, a better show finale than this.

I hope this helped and you have a great day! As always, here is my ask tag. xoxox

[fineillmakeaslasherblog]

Can I request OG Michael, Norman, Billy Lenz, and Vincent being edged? 😏

Unfortunately, some of these may be a little lackluster. Anyway, nsfw under the cut.

OG!Michael Myers:

Good luck lmao

It's not really his thing, and he doesn't have a strong enough reaction for it to even be that fun if you tried.

The first time, you get a pointed look and a lil huff (which is admittedly pretty cute, but never tell him that)

He doesn't have any reaction beyond that, though. His body language is hard to read in general, and the bedroom is no exception.

Still, if you've reached the point in a relationship where he lets you anywhere near as vulnerable a part of his body as his dick, you've probably figured out how to read him, and he's more annoyed than aroused.

If you do it again, that irritation falls over a precipice and he bats your hand away to finish by himself. He doesn't have the patience to put up with this.

Altogether, not really his cup of tea. Overstimulation, on the other hand...

Norman Bates:

Why would you do this? Do you want to make him cry?

Okay, the answer is probably yes. But I digress.

As soon as you take your hand away, he looks at you like a wounded animal. Pure betrayal in his eyes. It's really cute tbh

That said, he finds that he doesn't actually hate it. He trusts you, and he knows that you won't push him into something he doesn't want, so he resigns himself to flopping his head back with a broken sigh so you can continue.

And if you start praising him? Any apprehension he had about the whole thing goes up in smoke. The first sweet words leave your lips and any ability to think clearly is replaced with buzzing nothingness.

Tell him how good and patient he's being for you as you edge him to tears and he's making the prettiest little sounds in your ear in no time.

His stamina in the bedroom is absolutely abysmal, so this is probably a decent way to make sure he can actually go for longer than five minutes.

Just make sure you do let him cum by the end of it. He's not one for long-term denial. It may seem to him more like rejection than any kind of kink.

Billy Lenz:

Another man who you would have to be truly sadistic to edge, though for very different reasons.

This man's sex drive is absolutely ungodly, which actually makes him pretty hard to edge since he hardly needs any stimulation to cum. Still, if you can manage it, the effort is well worth it.

When you first start, he's moaning and whining before you even wrap your hand around his cock, so I sincerely hope that you have thick walls.

That noise is nothing, however, compared to when you stop. The scream he lets out is the most pathetic, agonized sound you've ever heard from him, which is quite a feat in itself.

Despite his eagerly bucking hips, though, he's internally panicking. Why did you do that?! Were you mad at him? Did he do something bad? Did he finally say something that crossed a line?

Are you going to leave him?!

Please calm him down before he works himself into a frenzy. For all his filthy rambling, we all know that he's a deeply wounded man, and you need to be patient with him.

Give him lots of kisses and praise, maybe even tell him how pretty his cock looks when it's twitching with need, and he'll very quickly warm up to the idea.

That being said, have lots of water on standby any time you plan on edging him. Even a single edge can be enough to have him sobbing. (See the aforementioned sex drive.)

Just make sure to read his body language and you'll be fine. He can't handle as much edging as most, and letting you do it at all is a massive show of trust that can easily be shattered if you take it too far.

Vincent Sinclair:

Easily the most straightforward of the four. Make no mistake, he'll whine and squirm, but he takes it relatively in stride.

If you're lucky enough to be doing this while his mask is off, his face is scrunched up as he tries to control his reactions.

Not because he doesn't want you to see them, necessarily. But contrary to popular belief, he does have some sense of dignity to uphold.

Even with his mask on, though, you'd be able to read him from his hands flexing and releasing repeatedly, the slight tremor in his hips that only grows stronger as you go, the muscles in his abdomen convulsing every time you pull away.

He can easily handle this for the longest, too. Vincent is a patient man, and it will take a lot of effort to get anywhere close to his limit. (That's not to say he won't be complaining about it before then, of course.)

If you really want to make him whine, don't focus too much on his cock. Leave lingering kisses on the rest of his body, gently bite his inner thighs, make sure his whole body is burning with need.

Making sure he's pent up and drawn taut from the beginning will only make his reaction when you deny him all the sweeter.

[sortofanobsession]

Buddie prompt: After Buck recovers from the lightening strike, Eddie is distant and trying to be stoic. One night Buck shows up for impromptu movie night. Chris is thrilled while Eddie barely holds it together. During the moving Chris lays his head over Buck's heart and listens to the beat, and then tells his dad to come and do the same. Before Eddie can protest Buck's pulling him in. The steady beat fills Eddie's ears and he finally looses it spectacularly, full emotional catharsis. Love ensues

Author's Note: I love this prompt soooo much. I stayed up later than I should have last night to start it and put off my actual work to get it finished. I just love prompts like this. They make me so happy. Hopefully I did it justice.

I'm afraid of what you'll see, right now

Buck doesn't understand what is happening. Everyone seemed so glad to see him awake. Everyone but Eddie. Eddie would say he was glad, and Christopher was so happy to see him. But Eddie was pulling away from him, and Buck didn't understand why. Buck knows he was injured again. He was hit by lightning. The same lightning bolt had knocked Eddie off the truck too. Everyone has told him how Eddie reacted. They told him how Eddie had screamed for him over and over. Not even thinking about the fact he got hit too. Eddie had gone up the ladder without hesitation, without safety gear, without worrying about another lightning strike. A second hit so close to the first one would have killed Eddie. A second hit would have thrown Eddie off the ladder without a safety harness. Eddie could have died. But he had been more worried about Buck. That is what everyone told him. 

So why wouldn't Eddie look at him now? Why was Eddie making excuses to avoid hanging out? It hurts almost as much as his injuries. 

"Give him time, Evan," Maddie had told him. 

"But I don't get it-"

"I know," Maddie adds, squeezing Buck's hand gently that is holding Jee-Yun to his chest. The little girl playing with the fingers on Buck's other hand. Maddie had hoped seeing his niece would lift his spirits. And it did for a bit. Buck had smiled and hugged her, but as usual, things always swung back around to Eddie.

"When he came by with Christopher, he stayed by the door or stared out the window. What if he is mad? What if he doesn't want me to be Christopher's guardian anymore because it's too risky?"

"I can't tell you what is going on in his head, but the fact he brought Christopher means it's nothing you did, Buck. You know that. He isn't taking Christopher from you. He brought him to you, even when you weren't awake. If he hasn't said anything about changing it yet to you or any of us, I think your safe in that one."

"Or he is just waiting until Christopher isn't around or until I'm better to break the news," Buck counters.

"Or you're overthinking it," Chim said from where he sat beside Maddie. "I mean, this is Eddie. He's broody, and he can be a jerk, but he isn't the best at tact when he is in a mood. He always lets that stuff slip out. And it hasn't. And you know he's normally too stubborn to ask for help or advice, but he still drops hints even if he doesn't realize it. And no one has seen any. Not to any of the team. And trust me. Bobby has been watching. Since the two of you got knocked off that truck, Bobby hasn't stopped watching him. So Maddie's probably right. Let Frank deal with it and focus on what matters, getting better."

Buck didn't want to admit he could see what Chim meant. He just also couldn't shake the doubt he still had. Because this was Eddie. And Buck liked to think he knew Eddie better than anyone, but did he know this Eddie?

It was like the lawsuit all over again. Eddie wasn't talking to him. Not like before. Not like when Eddie would tell him everything. It stung. But every time Buck would try and bring it up to him, Eddie would shut it down. Tell him he just wanted Buck to focus on getting better. 

"You don't need my shit right now, Buck," Eddie had told him the one time Buck managed to get an answer. "You deal with getting better. Besides, that's what Frank is for." Then Eddie had made an excuse to leave the room, and Buck was left with just Christopher for a good half hour. Eddie may have thought that would make Buck feel better, but it didn't. 

Buck had hoped it would get better once he was out of the hospital. That Eddie would see that the doctors had deemed him healthy enough to go about it on his own. But it only made it worse. After Buck's leg, Eddie hovered. He would drag him out of bed. Take him to PT and force Buck to socialize. After Eddie got shot, it was more dinners with Buck. They had guys' nights, movie nights, and game nights. This time was different. Eddie made excuses. He'd still drop Christopher off to have days or nights with his Buck.

"Oh, Buckaroo," Carla had hugged him one day as she dropped Christopher off with him. "It's not you. He's trying to work through his issues. He's just too stubborn to admit he has them to us."

"What issues? What has changed other than me?" Buck asks her.

"I wish I could tell you, but you're just going to have to be more stubborn than he is and wait him out. He won't fully disappear on you. I can guarantee that much. He just might need a bit of a push."

Buck thinks about that, and with Christopher's help, he makes a plan. 

The next week he rents a movie. Buys a pizza and a few drinks and goes to Eddie's house. 

Eddie's eyes go wide when he answers the door. Buck feels uneasy at the brief panic that seems to cross Eddie's face before Eddie can hide it. Buck thinks maybe he screwed up. Maybe he is pushing too hard, too fast. Or that maybe Eddie has someone over. Maybe he- 

"Christopher is in the living room," Eddie says, interrupting Buck's mental panic. Eddie steps back to let Buck into the house. Buck hesitates, which earns a raised brow from Eddie. 

"You coming in?" Eddie asks. 

"Yeah," Buck nods.

"You okay? How you feeling?" Eddie asks as he takes the pizza from Buck and brings it to the kitchen. 

"I'm okay," Buck tells him. His nerves have him shifting his weight back and forth as he sets the drinks down. His hands go into his pockets to keep from showing how nervous he is. "Doctors said I could start getting out more, hence…" he gestures to the pizza, the rented movie on top of it, and the drinks. "This. Figured no better place to be than a medic's place." Buck's stomach dropped at the way Eddie seemed to flinch at his statement. And Buck starts to think he made the wrong decision. He doesn't realize that Eddie flinches because of the idea that Buck is afraid to go out somewhere he would enjoy hitting him hard. Buck picked him because either Buck was here just because Eddie would keep him alive while he hung out with Christopher, or maybe Buck was just scared to go anywhere yet.

"You're always welcome here, you know that," Eddie told him as he grabbed plates.

Buck had to bite his tongue to keep from questioning that statement. Because to him, it felt like Eddie was pushing him away. Like Eddie was keeping him at an arm's length, and Buck hates every second of it. But it was selfish to want more. Eddie was letting him in his house. He was letting him see Christopher. That was more than he had gotten during the lawsuit. So Buck kept that question to himself. 

Buck didn't see that as Eddie grabbed the plates. He was actually having a mini panic of his own. Eddie was taking a second while his back was turned to take a deep breath, trying to calm himself. Frank had told him something like this was a good thing. They needed to get back to normal. For Buck. For Christopher. For Eddie. It would help with Eddie's nightmares. It might help ease the constant fear that Eddie has now that every time he closes his eyes he sees Buck dying. Heart stopped by the lightning that hit both of them. Eddie had bile rising in his throat on more than one occasion since that night. He had been hoping the others hadn't noticed the dark circles under his eyes. That he didn't eat nearly as much these days. And the fact he seemed to run on pure caffeine and anxiety. Bobby had noticed but agreed to let Eddie keep trying to work through it with Frank. 

Eddie forces himself to breathe before turning back around and setting the plates on top of the pizza box so he can carry everything. The less Buck has to carry, the better. 

 "Grab those, and we'll get the movie going," Eddie says with a gesture to the drinks. 

They watch the movie as they eat. An uneasy tension fills the air that both men hope Christopher is spared from. Christopher was tucked tight between them, curled into Buck's side as they watch the movie. Or at least pretend to. Eddie couldn't describe the plot if he tried. He just watches the two of them out of the corner of his eye and tries to keep his breathing even. He had to force himself to eat normally. To not let Buck see the constant edge that Eddie seemed to teeter on these days. It's not until Christopher lets out a little hum of a sigh as he snuggles into Buck's chest that Eddie lets himself fully look down at him. 

Buck smiles down at Christopher. Ruffling the boy's hair slightly. And Eddie's heart hurts. It hurts because they were so close, never having this again. If they hadn't been able to get Buck down as quickly as they did. If Chimney hadn't started chest compressions as quickly as he did. Eddie squeezes his eyes shut against the mental image. Only opening them when he feels a slight tug on his forearm. 

"You should listen too. It helps," Christopher whispers as he tugs again at his sleeve. Eddie shakes his head. He was about to open his mouth to argue when he feels a hand on the back of his neck. Eddie goes ridged, and his gaze snaps to Buck's, but Buck just gives him a nervous smile and a gentle squeeze to the back of his neck. Eddie's muscles practically melt under Buck's movement. His breathing hitched, and he felt himself losing that tight grip he had had on emotions. Eddie's eyes close again as he tries to get himself together. But before he can, Buck is pulling him down. Eddie's eyes open to see Christopher now half on Buck's knee and half on the other side of the couch. Buck was now in the middle. Buck pulled him down until Eddie's ear is against his chest. And Eddie can hear the way Buck's heart beats steadily in his chest. He can feel Buck's breath in his hair and the rise and fall of his chest against him. Any grip Eddie had left on his emotions, his control deteriorated. The sobs hit him harder than the lightning had. Harder than he hit the ground that night. It stole the air from his lungs and blurred his vision. He fists tight in Buck's shirt.

"Eddie…" Buck starts but is stopped as he feels Eddie shake his head against him. "Eds, It's okay." Buck shifts to hold him tighter. He wants to comfort him. He can't help it. Eddie buries his face in Buck's neck and cries. Buck looks over at Christopher, who looks a bit scared. He hadn't expected such a visceral reaction from his dad. "It's okay, bud," Buck assures him. "I'll take care of him." 

Christopher nodded and moved to sit on the chair to keep watching the movie. Or at least give his dad and Buck more space. But he didn't want to leave, not if his dad or Buck might need him. He knew his dad might feel embarrassed. So he would stay for now.

"Hey," Buck whispers to Eddie as he holds him tight. One hand rubs Eddie's back as he cries. The other is in his hair as he holds the back of Eddie's head. "I'm here, Eds." Buck could feel the way Eddie's breath stuttered against his skin. The way Eddie shook. Eddie was falling to pieces in Buck's arms, and it tears at something deep inside Buck. He had missed Eddie the past few weeks. He didn't like the idea of Eddie suffering without him. And now it was clear Eddie had missed him too. Eddie had meant it when he said he didn't want to put his shit on Buck. But Carla was right. Maddie and Chim were right. Eddie had clearly been working through something. He clearly didn't want to be a burden to Buck. He didn't want to hurt Buck and was willing to hurt himself to do it. But Carla, Chim, and Maddie were wrong about one thing. Buck shouldn't have waited. He should have tried sooner. Because if this was how Eddie was now, after weeks of working with Frank and trying to sort through it. And knowing what the others had said about that night. This is what they both needed. They both hadn't wanted to be a burden, but they both needed each other. "I'm not going anywhere, Eddie. Do you hear me? I am not leaving. I'm not going to leave you. You made sure of that. I'm here because you saved me."

"Buck…I…you…" Eddie tries. 

"Shhhh," Buck brushes his fingers through Eddie's hair. "It's okay. Cry if you need to. Scream if you need to. I don't care. Take whatever you need. I'm here." 

Eddie struggles to steady his breathing enough to speak. "I need you," Eddie manages. "God, I need you." He goes absolutely pliant as Buck pulls Eddie into his lap. 

"I need you too," Buck tells him. He glances up when he realizes the movie is no longer playing. Christopher is no longer in the chair. He looks back to see Christopher put his finger to his lips and shush him and smile as he disappears down the hall. Buck's heart swells at how much he adores that smart and loving kid. When Christopher is gone, he looks back to Eddie. "The last few weeks have been shit because I missed you. Maddie and Carla said to give you time. You told me that too, but I couldn't do it. I couldn't wait anymore because I missed you. I need you."

"I'm so sorry," Eddie says. Any strength he had melts away as he meets Buck's gaze.

"Nothing to apologize for," Buck smiles before shifting himself so he can brush his thumb along the edge of the dark circles under Eddie's eyes. "I do regret not coming here sooner."

"You needed to heal," Eddie says, one hand still tight in his shirt. The other now pressed over Buck's heart to feel the steady beat under his palm. "I needed you to be okay. I can't lose you…I just can't. I'm not-"

"I know the feeling," Buck chuckles. "Eddie, when you were shot, it was one of the most terrifying moments in my life, and yes, that includes being crushed. The only moment that comes anywhere close to that was losing Christopher in the tsunami."

"Buck, you-"

"I know it wasn't my fault. Just like you getting shot wasn't. Just like it's not either of our fault that lightning hit me. Hit us." Buck brushes tears away from Eddie's cheek. "What you can take credit for is saving me. You made sure the line wasn't damaged. You helped get me down. You drove me to the hospital. And you give me every reason to keep pushing to get better."

"You saved me first," Eddie points out. "You got me to the truck after I got shot. You kept me from bleeding out. You took care of Christopher. You drove me home. Then when I just kept losing myself, you pulled me back. You took care of Christopher again. You called Bobby. You helped patch my walls. You are always the reason I get back up off the ground. Even after the lightning."

"We make one hell of a pair," Buck says with a grin. "Please don't push me away again. I know you thought you were doing what was best, but it just made me miss you. Because you were there, but you weren't really there an-"

"I won't," Eddie is probably too quick to agree, but he's sitting on Buck's lap, for Christ's sake. Who was he to argue now? "I was stupid." 

"You were doing your best," Buck assures him, his fingers brushing against his skin again. "I know you weren't doing it to hurt me."

"I'd rather eat glass than intentionally hurt you again," Eddie admits.

"Let's not do that," Buck shakes his head but smiles. "And I was more confused than anything."

"Nah, I'm sure you had that kicked puppy look you always get," Eddie grins.

"That's rich coming from the guy sitting in my lap," Buck teases. 

Eddie turns red when he realizes how he must look, but when he tries to get up, Buck holds him tighter.

"I didn't say it was a bad thing, Eddie," Buck takes the opportunity to bury his face in Eddie's neck this time. "I wanted nothing more than just to talk to you the last few weeks. If you think now that I've gotten you here that I'm just going to let you get away, you are wrong. You must have forgotten that I can be just as stubborn as you." 

Eddie shudders at the way Buck's breath ghosts across his skin. Buck can't help but chuckle. 

"Chris is-"

"In his room," Buck grins.

"What?" Eddie looks around as best he can from his spot pinned against Buck. 

"He shut the movie off and went to his room when you started talking again. I think he figured I had it under control. Bold of him to assume I wouldn't say something stupid. I did get my brain fried by a lot of electricity."

That earns a breathy laugh from Eddie. 

"Probably was more worried he'd see something scarring. Like his dad balling like a baby in your lap," Eddie winced. "Poor kid's gonna need even more therapy." 

"No more than the rest of us," Buck admits. "But he's a smart kid. He knows you can't just keep things bottled up. That this is a good thing."

"I am glad you're here," Eddie says. 

"Me too." Buck grins, and it's Eddie's turn to reach up and touch. He runs his fingers along Buck's cheek. Then his birthmark. Something he's wanted to do since day one but never thought he would get to. 

"I thought I lost you," Eddie admits. 

"But you didn't," Buck assures him. "Quite the opposite. I think you're stuck with me even more now."

"You say that like it's a bad thing," Eddie counters, his hand moving to Buck's jaw. "And the feeling's mutual. You thought I used to hover. Well, you're in for it now." He gently tugs on Buck's chin until they are a breath apart. "You're never getting rid of us."

"Never want to," Buck breathes before he closes the gap, and their lips meet in a kiss. 

"Carla says the doctor says none of that serious stuff!" They hear Christopher shout from his bedroom. Buck blushes to the tips of his ears as Eddie groans. But Buck is first to recover.

"Tell Carla she's off the clock, and you come back, and we'll finish the movie," Buck manages to say. Eddie groans again but moves back to sit in his own seat. 

"You guys aren't going to be gross if I do, right?" Christopher's voice comes from the hall now. 

"We won't be gross," Buck says with an eye roll.

"I make no promises," Eddie mutters. His hand finds Buck's and laces their fingers together. Buck grins over at him and steals a kiss.

"Gross," Christopher mumbles as he sits in the chair, but the grin on his face speaks volumes. Clearly happy his dad is feeling better and that Buck is happy too. 

"Sorry, not sorry," Buck smirks before grabbing the remote with his free hand and starting the movie again. He snuggles tighter into Eddie's side when Eddie drapes his arm over the back of the couch before dropping it on Buck's shoulder. 

"Not one bit," Eddie mutters with a smirk. 

"Nope," Buck agrees.

"Shhh, you already talked through half the movie," Christopher doesn't even look at them. The pair try not to laugh as they all settle back in. 

"I don't even know what is happening in this movie," Eddie whispers. Christopher shushes him again.

"I'll explain it later," Buck assures him.

Just because that first one is smiling, does not mean he's friendly.

That Swag is my darling favorite should go without saying. It's kinda funny because he is nothing like my normal type of fave, but sometimes a character is just so enjoyable that it doesn't matter.

Swag is layers upon layers of masks, operating under a fake it till you make it program that is in constant flux. He endlessly rebuilds and remakes himself, and despite certain strict rules and being a legit business owner, is one of the most fluid and chaotic characters in the group. He bucks social authority hard, and while he starts out a bit selfish and self centered, he skews far more towards trying to do what's good rather than what's legal. Meaning that, while he doesn't go out of his way to be a hero, he will try to help people who are right in front of him. He is sometimes bad at it.

Considering how truly awful he used to be, and how he chose to go about not being that, he is a rare example of a wildly successful reform. Most of the biggest name villains in his world either died, or called it quits eventually, leaving only the smaller rogues to decide if they really wanted to continue or not. I imagine his world as being contemporary to ours, but with more cyberpunk candy goth overtones, rather than the classic art deco or endless grunge feels that many other Gothams portray.

Swag is one of those obnoxiously fashionable people who you want to be mad at, but you can't because he's charming instead of insufferable. He is openly afraid of commitment, but has a deep capacity for love and care, and an almost religious (but not quite) need to put more joy into the world than he did pain. He knows he can't make up for what he did, but guilt will always drive a person to try.

Swag is agile, and the fastest among his peers, but his body just never holds much weight or muscle, so he's not as strong as, say, Arkham or Narci. He can take a lot of pain and keep going though-if all the contraptions in his bedroom closet are any indication-and is difficult to drop. He does not believe in fighting 'fair', he's just seen too many fights for that.

Swag is not to be trusted in the kitchen! Get him outta there! However, he is a very good seamster, and often designs clothing. He has a lot of hobbies to keep his mind occupied, and work off his boundless energy. He has troubles with addiction, alcoholism being his greatest nemesis, after giving up nicotine since discovering Helix was allergic to it.

When Swag was ten years old, a Gray showed him the future. There, he met Narci and Helix, and a few other people. And though as the years went on, that memory faded into a dream, then a fuzzy recollection, then nothing more than a faded impression with no details, it kept him alive. At his lowest points, when he wondered if it was really worth it to go on, he always ended up clinging to the unfounded belief that someone was waiting for him, and so he stayed alive.

Swag was an unintentionally guiding force for many of the other Riddlers, and is universally beloved. In the end, like Detective, he also eventually got almost everything he wanted.

whatever happens with Buck+Tommy and Eddie+marisol, i just hope we get back to Buck+Eddie besties soon :( they set us up in the first episode of season 7 as having some nice touchy feely (literally and emotionally) buddie besties and buckley-diaz family stuff this season, but we haven’t really seen it since then :/ so no matter what happens with the other couples, i hope we actually see them be close like we were promised, we’re already almost halfway through the season and i have not seen it yet lmaooo

Anon, I'm gonna use this to rant and I am SO SORRY because I'm feeling heated about this all of the sudden to an annoying degree (I am going on a run and I will probably take 30 minutes with the punching bag and laugh at how heated I was) but I need to say it. (Under the cut because this straight got full on negativity sorry)

We were told that buddie was gonna get closer than ever and then they promptly made it seem like they are not as close as we might think. They straight up made an episode from Buck's pov where the Eddie we are seeing is not the Eddie we know in relation to Buck. And considering the fact that the compelling thing about buddie is their friendship, that's a punch in the gut. They didn't have to use Eddie the way they used to make the kiss happen, they didn't have to go that route. Buck is 30 something, Eddie is his best friend of 5+ years, and Buck doesn't trust him enough to know that if he apologizes, they would be fine? Are you serious? Eddie has never hesitated to do the thing Buck needed. NEVER. Eddie would die for Buck but when you look at what happened from Eddie's side, you have Buck throwing a tantrum because Eddie is doing things Buck doesn't like to do with someone else, you have Buck not react to almost breaking his leg (yes I know Buck didn't react out of shock over what he did, but looking at it from Eddie's perspective, Buck didn't react), then avoiding him for whoever knows how long, and it all being because of a guy? Like, was that seriously the best way they could come up with for Buck to figure out he's bi? To use his best friend, abandon him while hes hurt and then force Eddie into a situation where he can't be mad because being attracted to men is something new for Buck, that he will need support on, and Eddie loves him too much to deny him that, even if it's at the cost of his own feelings.

I was promised buddie closer than ever and what I got was the feeling that they are gonna act they were not that close to being with and put them in the place we thought they were. Which is not it. Buck is in Eddie will. Buck has been on Eddie's will for over 3 years. They keep double down on how buddie and Chris are a family. And now??? What? If it's not about Chris they are fumbling? If it's not about Chris, Eddie gets an injury because Buck wants a boyfriend? The thing about Buck and Eddie is their friendship, and we haven't seen them be friends outside of the firehouse since mixed feelings, because the cemetery of it all is complicated since it created space between them that keeps getting bigger. I made a post in one of my many many many cemetery breakdowns that that scene would either be the thing that gets buddie together or the thing that separates them narratively, and right now I think it's gonna be the thing that breaks them up for real. Except it's not. Because everything about Tommy so far is also about Eddie. Eddie is this presence that was evoked EIGHT times while Buck and Tommy kissed. He's gonna be on their first date. Who knows how else they'll figure out how to put Eddie in the middle and right now that idea is fucking exhausting. I don't want Tommy to be a stepping stone to Buddie. And I don't want Eddie in the middle of Buck's first queer relationship.

I'm not even talking as someone who wants them to make history by making this intricate and development queer relationship canon, I'm talking as someone who fell in love with Buck and Eddie's friendship. With the checking in, and the understanding, the ride or die that was proved over and over and over again. I know they need to talk about the things that happened to them and they usually need something extreme to talk about their feelings, but you mean to tell me Buck couldn't just put on his big boy pants and say "hey I'm feeling left out, can we do something I like too?" it's not like Eddie would say no. Instead they have Buck acting like he did in under pressure, and I get it, that's the whole point, but it was cute in a 26 yo with abandonment issues and a less than stable life, it's embarrassing on a 32 yo when he's acting like this with someone as stable in his life as Eddie (and Chim too, like, seriously, he just had to go around using everyone? He couldn't just pick up his fucking phone and ask????????) especially when that ends with Eddie getting hurt and the final conclusion be "oh it wasn't about Eddie". So he used Chim, he hurt Eddie, he got the guy that was actually trying to excuse his behavior when he was acting like a toddler who was denied a toy, and I'm here like "we're just gonna ignore this too, right?" Because Eddie has to be supportive. So it doesn't matter how weird Buck is acting with him, or how he feels about it, dropping the "I'm bi" bomb will force Eddie into ignoring what happened. Because I don't trust the show to make them talk properly. So if we are forcing Eddie to ignore it, how close can Buck and Eddie stay while Buck figures that part of himself out? Like, legit, how close can they get? Because, sure, Buck is probably gonna come out, Eddie is gonna state his support, maybe some reassurance about Buck's place in his life, but then... What? Assuming Eddie is not getting a queer storyline right now, which he probably won't, how helpful can he be in the situation? How does that bring them closer? Even if he does get a queer storyline, how helpful can he be? Especially considering the way the thing Buck had going with men in general, Eddie mostly only has with Buck, so his queer awakening kinda needs to be attached to Buck, so how would Eddie help Buck there? Or Buck help Eddie, Eddie is not gonna look at Buck with a boyfriend and be honest, so Buck wouldn't know. What's probably gonna happen is nothing. They'll talk about whatever they'll talk next episode and that will be it. Maybe if we're lucky they'll get back to where they were during 6a.

Because something else the show LOVES to do is put space between them when they're dating, so, Tommy will also create space. And he should, yk? He's gonna be Buck's boyfriend and he's by far the most compelling canon love interest Buck has ever had and they have potential to be something nice to watch Buck have. But I was promised with all letters a focus on buddie's friendship. Or will this somehow be the thing that makes them look at each other and realize to talk more? Because I don't see it. I'm hoping the show proves me wrong. I'm desperate for the show to prove me wrong. I wanna go back to this ask by the end of the season and laugh at how aggravated I was. But I don't see how this doesn't end in a situation where the show proves to me that Eddie loves Buck more than Buck loves Eddie. They put Eddie in a TERRIBLE place. Because he likes Tommy and he loves Buck. And he knows that coming out is gonna be terrifying for Buck and we know he loves Buck too much to put him in a situation where he would feel unsure of him on purpose. But he should be allowed to be hurt by the situation in a way the show can't make happen. So we are just adding something else to the list of things they pretend didn't happen and that adds cracks to their relationship that just won't be addressed because why would they?

I love that Buck is canonically bi. I get a hit of dopamine every time I think about it. As a bi person who only found out she was bi as an adult, I am vibrating to see how this is gonna play out for him. But at the same time, is this gonna be the price we are paying for it?

And I know I'm making a mountain of a molehill and I know I probably sound hypocritical as fuck with the way I keep saying to wait for the whole season and I know I could be proved wrong by Thursday and feel stupid that I was worried, and trust me, I HATE that I'm feeling like this. I am trying to be like "Anna, chill, the season is barely halfway done, s8 is confirmed, things will get better" but, like, I just want their friendship back. And I can't see how Eddie fits in Buck's discovery in a satisfying way. So I'm annoyed as fuck. Whatever happens with Buck and Tommy will happen and I want Edy gone, so I hope Marisol is leaving soon, but like, I want their friendship. And I want Eddie not to be in the middle of Buck and Tommy, to not be used as a device to further Buck's romantic life without a payoff for Eddie.

Fuck this got long and negative and yeah, sorry, I want their friendship and turns out I have a lot of feelings without the Buck is bi goggles.

"#Ian looking for his next victim#dw babe#they can all take that 9in monster#CAN YOU IMAGINE THO" <- i can actually hear me out, married ian and mickey putting their (more or less legally obtained) savings together for a fresh start in LA. literally the first week mickey ends up being the reason for one of the 118's more embarrassing calls, idk what the hell he's been up to but this is the guy who got shot in the ass one time so. they need all hands on deck to hold mickey down and get him on the stretcher ("Get your fucking hands off me! Don't touch me! I don't need a hospital! Fuck off!") and when they finally did it with ian's help, buck gives him a slap on the shoulder and goes "Nice job on the first aid by the way." this leads to ian picking up the idea again that he could become a firefighter, i mean, who wouldn't want to work alongside handsome sweaty men? and he needs a job and this would be a solid one, also well paid. so right as they're loading mickey into the ambulance he goes "Wait, you guys hiring?" mickey clocks it immediately, taking off his oxygen mask: "Yeah, I don't fucking think so."

Not proofread. Written on my phone quickly at work.

"The fuck you mean?" Ian replies rapidly, not exactly mad, but he doesn't know why Mickey would be against this. There's a tence look going around the 118 team.

"Well... Because," he fumbles on his words as Hen helps Chim get the stretcher in the ambulance, silent. "I don't know, man. Look at them. Look at me." Now Ian gets it and he laughs at his husband's jealousy.

"Don't worry honey, this 9-inch cock is all yours." Now, Gallaghers have always been known for their unreligious ways in the dumpster hole they called home, but here in LA, this had everyone's necks itching with secondhand embarrassment, and the 118 had seen A LOT.

Ian looks around and realizes what he just said, and how that must not look entirely good on a work resume.

"Listen kid, you've got drive," Bobby chimes in, hand on his shoulder. "Maybe give yourself a minute to settle in, let your friend here heal, and drop by the station to have a proper word with us."

"I'm his husband, jackass!" They can hear Mickey through the closing ambulance doors. Eddie snickers and grabs the medical kits on the floor while Ravi picks up the gloves that were shoved out of the box in their attempt to tame the beast.

"I'm really sorry guys. I know he can be much. But when you grow up with nothing, you kinda need someone by your side who gets it." He sticks his hand out to shake Buck's, then Bobby's. "I'll make sure he's more civilized before I give this a shot. Wouldn't want to be on duty when we get a call because he put his nose where it shouldn't be."

"We've all had our moments, trust me," adds Buck. There's a faint pinch in his stomach when he looks him in the eyes - one, because this cute ginger was actually taken, and two, he's afraid Ian will back down on the offer and they won't get to have his quick wit on the team. "You kind of remind me of myself a couple years back. Give yourself a chance, and you'll get there." Bobby winces at that reminder, but nods in approval.

A few weeks later, when the dust had settled and Ian managed to convince Mickey of the amazing financial and gratifying opportunity, he walks himself into the station, confidence radiating in his walk. Before asking anyone where the chief was, Ian lets himself gloat at the scene before him;

Buck and Chim are going heavy on the workouts, sweaty and panting while the other beauty - he hadn't caught his name - is getting dressed in the locker room, and though he found the idea stupid at first, he soon realizes that glass walls were not so bad after all.

When his so-called 9 inch cock starts to threaten his composure (and therefore prooving Mickey's point), he pushes himself out of his hiding spot and walks towards the staircase, before being greeted by Hen.

"Well, if it isn't Mr. Loverboy now!" She sing-songs and he softly blushes when everyone around turn their attention.

He makes a mental note to give them another nickname to use if this was going to work.

I could ellaborate on that, and in a world where Gallavich doesn't exist, have Buck and Ian be all over eachother, but this was a fun little snippet!!

Hi hi, you asked on sunday to share my thoughts on the yesterday's episode. Honestly, it was ok. I expected a bit more than what made it to print. My thoughts are a bit all over the place, so forgive me a bit. Like finally we got a resolution for Buck's "who am I storyline" cause it's been seasons of him feeling neglected/abandoned ect. The grass isn't always greener on the other side type deal. The dad/son thing with Bobby is confirmed. But it's like, we knew. Or let me rephrase, I didn't need anything confirmed because it's been blatantly obvious. I was expecting more of the Chris scene, and it was like 2 secs. Everyone mad at the Buckley parents, but they were ok. They didn't run at the 1st sign of Buck barely alive, so that's good. And trust me I know from 1st hand experience blood doesn't necessarily make a family.

I think there was wasted Buddie potential here. I know people ate up the Eddie in Buck's room and stuff, but I go back to seeing it from the general audience point of view. There wasn't anything on the "live" portion of the episode pointing to them specifically. I mean Hen was in the room with Chris and Eddie bawling. If I saw that as a regular viewer, I wouldn't be thinking he's crying over the love of his life. Plus, it really bothered me that Eddie was "shown" as the guy who lost his son in Buck's coma dream. With the ways Eddie loves Chris, he would have done anything and everything to not let that happen. But it circled back to " I introduced Carla to Eddie". Yes, the episode put Buck as the glue to everyone but that rubbed me the wrong way. Plus no scene at all with Eddie and Buck who are supposed to be best friends? None, not even a fly by moving the camera from one side of the room to the next? Like yall aren't even friends at this point? Cause even a friend should have been shown alone with him even a few seconds. Hen and Eddie appeared when Chris was there. And Hen was already in the room when that happened - alone.

Sorry, see what I mean my thoughts are over 😂😂 I will say though, my buddie ticket was refunded at the station. Again I go back to the general audience perspective, nothing was shown as potential Buddie canon (trust me I live in tumblr and see all the comments and stuff seen from the Buddie fandom and you guys give me life🥰). I will be on the sidelines cheering if it does go canon but with KR at the helm, I don't see it happening. Yesterday's episode would have been the perfect moment or starting point of it.

I'll go back to thinking again now 🤣🤣🤣

Okay I just saw this.

But yes, I agree.

I loved that they 100% confirmed Bobby and Buck as father and son and yeah I really like that Buck finally has his parents back in his life and that they are trying to make up for the hurt they've caused him.

I agree that the Eddie losing Christopher in his coma dream was a little weird. Like Buck knows how much Eddie loves Christopher and he knows that Eddie would do everything he could to keep his son with him and if he couldn't there is no way he would've just stayed in Los Angeles while his son is in El Paso. He would've went back to be as close to him as possible.

I also agree that there should have been a separate Buck and Eddie scene, am I'm sure there 100% was but it got cut. Like not even in a buddie way but Buck and Eddie are best friends. I'm sure he would've liked to talk to his best friend alone.

I'd like to imagine that Eddie did talk to him and sit with him right after Athena left, telling him how much everyone wants him to wake up, how much Christopher misses him, how scared everyone is, and maybe even praying to a god he doesn't believe in that Buck wakes up.

Then Hen comes in and tells him that Christopher is out in the waiting room and Eddie just bolts while Hen sits with Buck and then later comes back in with Christopher.

Anyways, I really do think they filmed a scene with just Buck and Eddie but they probably needed to cut scenes cause it got too long and they decided to cut the buddie scene because they hate us and didn't want us to take it and run with it because they know we would have. So they decided to just use the one Hen, Buck, Eddie, and Christopher scene because they were emphasizing the Bobby Buck relationship in this episode.

I still hate the fact that Eddie wasn't at all shown in Buck's coma dream. Like he's a big part of Buck's family, like huge, and I think to just skip over him was really bad writing on their part.

However, to twist this in a positive way. I kinda do like that they didn't show Eddie in the coma dream because the part where Buck says he's not going back for them, he was talking about all the people in his coma dream and since Eddie wasn't there and he's a big part of Buck's real life...

Buck went back for himself and for Eddie.

Can you give new people joining the fandom a rundown on Max Gao? With his latest 9-1-1 article circulating a lot, I think it's time to clear some misconceptions, and you're the one I trust the most when it comes to compiling information as well as giving neutral/levelheaded takes.

*rubs temples* Are they mad at MG again? I didn't even realize it was him who put out the TVGuide article when I answered my nonnie who left me the quote (shoulda guessed, though, right?) Ah, MG. A twenty-something working his way up the ranks of journalism. Uses his twitter as a vessel for his written material while ALSO reacting to episodes as a fan would. People do not like that because "he should keep the two separate". Hate to break it to 'em, but he is not the only 9-1-1 journo to leave their personal opinions where all can see. But I don't see those folks getting called out NEARLY as much. They also don't like that he "says things to get a reaction". Uh. Is that not the point of working in the media??? To say things that will boost your twitter engagement or get more eyes on an article??? Did OG not do something similar when they put "Buck! Where the hell are you going?!" in the 6x04 promo only for it to amount to nothing??? Because they knew the most vocal people in the fan base would sit up and take note??? Complaining about him wanting a reaction is still A FORM OF REACTING. He doesn't care what you're saying!! Just that you actually bother to pay attention at all!! He most notably came under fire for a TVGuide interview with Tim & Kristen in March '22 in which Kristen said she sees Buck and Eddie as a "great friendship." They're mad at MG for getting that on record because they want to live in La La Land where the show runners have been championing for Buddie since s2 or s3 (depending on who is giving their opinion). She also said she doesn't think there is a "right or wrong" way to interpret Buddie: "But I think the struggle with the Buck and Eddie relationship is, we write a thing and we have an idea in our head of what the scene means and what those lines mean and an intention behind it, and then it goes out into the world," Reidel added. "People may receive it in a way that we had not expected or that we had not planned on, and I'm not gonna tell people that they're watching the show wrong because people see what they see." Meanwhile, this was Kristen when talking to Variety for an article that dropped the very same day: "...I think sometimes they interpret things as signs or signals that we did not intend for them to be.” + Reidel admits there have “been a couple of times where we made a little joke” about Buck and Eddie’s close friendship, “but that’s been the extent of it.” “With regard to the queer-baiting, I don’t actually know what to say on it because with Buck and Eddie, they have great chemistry and some people want to see them together. And it kind of seems like, if they’re in scenes together, we’re queer-baiting, if they’re not in scenes together, we’re queer-baiting. I am not really sure what to do there. But I will say it’s never our intention to queer-bait. But I can’t say, ‘You’re watching it wrong!'” [*insert The Office "They're the same picture." meme] TL;DR They've been picking on MG ever since they found out he was a teenager writing about their fave show (19 at the time of the fandom really starting to form an opinion about him) for...behaving like a teenage fan (aka someone we'd see on tumblr) while STILL having the balls to ask the uncomfortable questions or point out flaws that "ruin the fun". (And getting paid for it. That's the kicker.)

Hi ! I've just ended your forget-me-nots and I left comment on ao3, but I needed to go there and talk with you about some lines and moments (also use it as advertisment for the fic)

The way Eddie wakes up and doesn't remember anything, but still feels something about Buck, trust him, or better say his body does it it made me tear a little

Then you decided to give more damage with Chris telling Eddie everything, then Chris' tour around the house.

After that the kitchen conversation and then the way Buck hold Eddie made me cry and needed a minute

And then ofc it should have been another kitchen moment with heartbreaking : "Today is our wedding day." Eddie sucks in a sharp breath. Buck scrubs a hand down his face, chuckles. "We were gonna sleep in different rooms tonight for very different reasons than you not remembering me and freaking the fuck out about being in love with a man." He huffs a sigh, clenches his jaw. "Sorry, that's not fair."

Then all the ways Eddie tried to accept himself (again), the kiss after ofc Buck wanted to give hin Chris memories(which made me cry again and needed a minute again)

Then all the Buck hurt and Eddie scared moments were so so emotional too

"He's a born optimist but even the most hopeful guy in the world has gotta face the possibility that his fiancé might not get his memory back." - wow it's made me feel like so many emotions

If Eddie wasn't so painfully repressed, he would probably wonder if this is what it feels like to ovulate. - it made me laught a little (thank for it I needed little comic reliave)

Then "let yourself be happy" again broke me (just cut my heart it would be faster) but also put me together

Eddie kisses Buck by the kitchen sink and lets himself be happy. - the way I screamed when they kissed while Eddie still doesn't remember because he fall in love again

"Aw, come on, cap. Last time you got mad that I wasn't getting along with Eddie on his first day. What do you want from me?" Bobby rolls his eyes. - really Bobby what do you need? asfsd

Then moment with Eddie remembers and wedding made me look like 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 and last line about Eddie kissing Buck before Bobby's permission is so real

Thank you so much for this fic💖💖💖 It's so so beautiful and amazing and emotional💖💖💖

oh my god i don't even know what to say to this ??? you are so unbelievably sweet omfg and this means the world to me especially because it was one of my first big (what i considered to be big at the time lol 😅) fic, thank you so so so much for such a wonderful ask

Crush update

I've been a bit few and far between with my updates simply because I don't want to overwhelm my thoughts with him because it dosent seem healthy but this in particular was just a nice story it's long and rambly do heads up on that

I'm a gift giver , while I love getting things too I also love the same if not more giving them for this reason.

My crush has been having a really shitty year , and it was honestly probably the reason we didn't start dating yet, I say yet because I'm still hopeful but I'm not jealous or like mad at the thought of him dating someone else, I'm just manifesting okay lol. Anyways that's besides the point. His birthday was pretty soon after we first met, we're both cancers . And I had this idea for his birthday I ended up waiting to get because it seemed like a bit much for just meeting him. I got him a few movies and some candy instead. But this idea was too good and I ended up throwing caution to the wind and getting it for my Christmas party ,because at this party I got everyone else a present too around the same price range so I thought it was fair.

What was it? He told me pretty early into our friendship his favorite movie, he's also a pretty pretentious guy in terms of taste but doesn't act like the typical film bro guy ( trust me if he did I would have not talked to him anymore lol). But because of this I KNEW this bitch had a vinyl player ,he just had to. So I went on eBay, looked up the movie he liked and instantly found the soundtrack on vinyl. If anything he could just mount it on his wall. But as I said it was liek 40-50 bucks so while a bit much for new friend one that's a bit more connected, that was enough for me.

I was just hoping I'd be able to give it to him at the party because if I had to find another time to do it one on one I didn't think I'd be able to do it. He came , luckily.

I gave it to him a bit prematurely while he was putting his stuff down and had to grab it again for him to open. He was in my kitchen and opened it so it was me, my roomate and him apart from the rest of the people.

it had a protective box which eBay sent it in before the actual vinyl which I kept it in to protect it , but it made me even more antsy while I waited for him to realize what it was. When it clicked he was like floored idk even how to describe it but his eyes widened , his mouth dropped open ever so slightly and he quickly looked over at me and said " let me hug you oh my gosh! How did you find this!?"

It was honestly so great. And yes I may be more sentimental because my period is coming up but even now I can so perfectly see that scene play over and over again in my head. It feelt almost like a little box popped up saying that this was an important decision to make.

I know what you guys or one of you are wondering " well what did he get you???" This is the thing I love getting presents but I will not hold someone I don't know well to the same standards as my other friends, I don't even hold my friends to that standard anymore because I don't want to give things just to get stuff back. Thats a lesson I had taught myself this year , and it's one I will continue to carry because I should do things because I want to and out of love for others not for selfish reasons. I'm also valid though if I've expressed how much presents mean to me and they continually forget. I've never told my crush any of this and he's not my partner at this time so he has no obligation to do anything.

Now, if I told him I got him something, he would have gotten me something too. 100% facts , that is just how he is. But knowing he's been overwhelmed as it is I wanted to make things as easy and painless as possible for him so I didn't tell him. My roommate did get him present for the white elephant which was a book that , yes I will be taking from her and read lol.

Over all though I'm just so incredibly happy I was able to make a happy memory for him in the midst of everything that's going on for him. He really is the sweetest guy and I just want him to find all the happiness in the world.
