Eddie Diaz vs The Feelings 

Buck/Eddie | rated: Explicit | 62K | complete

His dad smiles warmly. “It’s wonderful seeing you so happy and obviously in love. We always hoped you would find a man who would bring you happiness like this. I can’t tell you how many nights your mother prayed for you to finally allow yourself to fall in love. The kind of love we know you always wanted.”

The kind of love…

Obviously in love?

They hoped he would find a man? To be in love with? Love he has always wanted?

Eddie nearly drops his phone.

It slips a little. And he almost accidentally presses the End button. Then hastily scrambles to pick up and put everything right.

“I—” he starts but has nowhere to go. Or he has everywhere to go? “I’m… in love? You think— why? Why would you think that’s the reason I’m happy?”

“Eddie,” his dad chuckles and shakes his head. “You don’t need to hide it. You talk about this man you love all the time. Christopher talks about him all the time. You said he’s always been there for you.”

Someone Eddie talks about all the time. His partner who takes care of him. Who is also loved by Chris.

His dad even smirks at him. “You have this look anytime you mention him. Your mother says I used to look at her the same way, with nothing but hearts and stars in my eyes. Where you’re young and it’s new and you’re head over heels for each other and can’t think or talk about hardly anything else. You always sound… you sound happier than I think I’ve ever known you to be. You talk about him like you admire him, and sometimes like you’re amazed by how fiercely he loves you. And Christopher. It sounds like he’s very special.”

Of course he’s special. Of course he’s important. And incredible and amazing. He’s fun and funny and generous and so compassionate. He has the biggest, most beautiful heart.

And then all Eddie can think is, what if it’s not wrong?

What if he is in love with Buck?

~~~

Eddie dives into the mysteries of attraction, romantic love, and asexuality because there's a good chance he's fallen in love with his best friend.

AKA demisexual!Eddie figures out he’s demi and finds the happily ever after he’s been longing for

demisexual eddie diaz my most beloved

[forestmossling]

okay, so- first of all. OH MY FUCKING GOD.

this is SOOO ridiculously good. this is everything to me. as a demisexual person, when i read the first part i was like “are we really finally talking about this?” because the unspoken nature of the general understanding that mutual attraction MUST mean you’re both ready to go tumble in the sheets immediately was bothering (is still bothering) me for so long. so seeing my nightmare scenario playing out in the first part and seeing two people (both of whom, surprisingly enough, i can relate to regarding their relationship to sex) go through the circumstances i too, i imagine, will have to face someday, felt like finally being seen. like that shit was plucked directly from my brain.

and that’s not even taking into account the absolutely delicious characterization of each and every character, their past in this au. just, all of it - absolutely astounding and made me smile like a loon.

i also immensely respect the fact that the author didn’t take the easy way out (although i didn’t really expect them to, considering the overall quality of their writing) and made eddie this perfect knight in shining armor who didn’t think about anything sex-adjacent after finding out steve’s ace. because that would be just. Unrealistic. and seeing him actually struggling while still being ready to fight tooth and nail to keep steve by his side, even if it would sometimes mean fighting himself, in a way, was wonderful.

and robin. oh robin, my beloved. their argument with eddie in the third part was legitimately one of my favorite scenes ever written (especially the art part). and the way she finally got to be the batshit-overprotective one in the stobin duo was hilarious and incredibly well-written, good for her.

also, here are some quotes that made me giggle

(although they weren’t the only ones)

Y’know, there’s one thing I don’t get about Arkham Rids. And it’s the whole bit about him being aro or ace or both. Lots of people say he’s aro/ace because ‘the base nature of (Catwoman’s attachment to Batman) disgusts’ him. And that’s fine. Honestly, I’m disgusted by it too sometimes. And so are some people who aren’t into BatCat in general. The thing that gets me is that people use this one line as evidence or something, and then leave no room for discussion, which I think is a bit stubborn. Yes, their overtly sexual relationship grossed me out too. Yes, I myself am arospec and aspec. But that’s the thing, it’s a spectrum. So while I understand that people get frustrated that he may very well be one of the few characters in media who is aro/ace, people have to understand that 1. It’s a spectrum. Attraction is a very complicated thing. 2. One line, does not a confirmed aro/ace make. And 3. I’m sure lots of allo peeps can be disgusted by a ‘base nature attachment’ as well. Lots of people, regardless of orientation don’t like hearing about what I can only assume Riddler interprets as an extremely sexual relationship that somehow breeded feelings. Which, to me at least, sound more like a demisexual sentiment that a flat out asexual one. It’s fine either way in my opinion. It’s just frustrating to me how some people aren’t open for discussion or nuance. Especially when I myself fall into said nuance.

hello lil beloved! i am not qualified in the slightest to discuss aro/ace spectrum stuff because i am a monogamous slut who loves romantic things

but as for the eddie, i think it's probably coming from two places:

wally wingert said in a cameo i saw once that he can't see the riddler flirting, he doesn't see him being romantic or anything like that. i think he might also have mentioned it in a behind the scenes interview or something? that plus i guess some people think that if he had a woman captive and didn't shoot his shot, then he's not into that? but that's a stretch and a little bit weird lmao

here's the thing though, there's so much eddie does say and doesn't say, and it's all down to how you interpret a character or their tone. some people go MAD for arkham!verse riddlecat, they see sexual tension between them and the way they talk. some people see eddie as canonically bisexual because he's depicted as such in other canon sources. some people see him being repulsed by catwoman or batman or sex in general. which brings me to the second point:

canon doesn't matter a tiny bit when people have their favourites. you can do what you want, you can think what you want. i headcanon arkham!eddie as bisexual, monogamous and autistic, because i can. and because the source material doesn't say that he isn't. and even if it did, it wouldn't stop me lmao which i think is where the big thing with eddie (and a lot of riddlers actually!) comes from. there's that little bit of a suggestion, a lil bit of hope and like you said, people cling to it, because the representation isn't anywhere else for them!

but ultimately people can do whatever they want for whatever reason forever and ever 💚 i know it's maybe annoying when some people won't hear you out about it, but also, they don't have to. which sucks for you, but they're entitled to be stubborn bub!

all that matters is that he's fictional and that people can do what they want with him u-u 💚

since it’s been a while. let’s do more of this. 

“Buck—”

“Can I ask you something?” Buck says at the same time and Eddie huffs but gives him a smile and a nod to continue. Buck steers them over to the kitchen table and holds one of Eddie’s hands when they sit down. “What happened last night? What made you panic? Can you tell me?”

Eddie opens his mouth but isn’t sure he has words to say. He should explain. He should say something. Buck’s request is so gentle and he deserves to know. Eddie just… doesn’t know how to say it. Maybe he doesn’t want to? He doesn’t really want to because it’s complicated and confusing and painful. But. He can. He can say something? “I…”

What happened. Why did he panic. It’s not that difficult. 

Why is it so difficult? Why is there nothing in his head and nothing in his mouth and why can’t he make it work? It’s Buck. He can tell Buck anything. “I don’t know what to say. How to say. Or explain. I don’t—” He makes a vague gesture with one hand like it can help him manufacture speech, but ends up with nothing.

“Okay. Um,” Buck says, still gentle, still patient. “I think I know what happened. I have a guess. And— and I might be wrong. But I keep thinking about what you said. I kept replaying it in my head.”

Fuck. If anyone could figure it out from nothing, it would have to be Buck. And he’s not sure he likes the idea that Buck has been stewing over this and analyzing it. He’s probably worried. And maybe blaming himself. And the last thing Eddie wants is to make Buck think that he’s hurt him somehow. “What do you think happened?”

Buck doesn’t quite look at him. “Well. I— I know the things that make you panic. I know what you’ve been working on and struggling with. I know what I’ve needed and asked you for recently. So. I think—” He takes time to take a long breath and seems like he wants to turn and look, but keeps himself from doing so. “I think you were trying to tell me you would have sex with me if I needed it.”

[powerpolyculeshowdown]

tell me about the greater hawkins polycule? i think i can guess some of it but i'm just obsessed with these characters and i never really considered a polycule before, yet it is a god tier idea akfgsjs

gsjsgsjsh ok so i have to preface this by saying my main idea for this setting is no upside down au, or even w upside down its nobody dies au cause it includes characters that did not make it in canon but canon is a toy we play with

THAT SAID i also want to add in this au billy is trying to become a better person and unlearn the toxicity he learned from his father. being abused is not an excuse for anything he did but it does offer a lot of context, and i think without his dad in the picture he would have room to grow

SO THE POLYCULE starting w my main blorbo my beloved Eddie Munson. I read him as being only into men, but he canonically has a crush on chrissy so hes bi in this. He's dating Chrissy and Steve OBVIOUSLY

Steve is also dating Billy (i think they have a lot in common being ex-popular jocks who were different levels of asshole but still both kinda sucked, and Steve having already changed could be a huge positive influence for Billy) and Nancy

Nancy is also dating Jonathan, because love triangles are stupid, Robin and Barb, because i decided she's bi i will not be taking opinions on this unless u agree w me. Shes the one w most romantic partners in the au

Jonathan is also dating Argyle ofc

Robin is dating Barb and Chrissy because she deserves to have 3 gfs and i havent read it but i know she was friends w barb in the book rebel robin or smth like that i forgot the title

So, circling back, Chrissy is dating Eddie and Robin. Robin is still a lesbian obviously so her and Eddie are just besties. Steve is still her soulmate (platonic) i think tbh u could make an argument for queerplatonic here but main point is they arent romantically involved

Barb is dating Nancy and Robin.

Billy is dating Steve but sometimes he and Eddie get together, partly because they're both dating Steve but also another reason i choose not to elaborate on in this blog.

Argyle is only here for Jonathan tbh but hes so supportive of Jonathan and Nancy and the extended polycule as well, he and Eddie get along great. I imagine Argyle as demisexual so atm he rlly is only interested in Jonathan, i dont see that changing but it could!

So basically its all the older teens*. The children are NOT included. Aside from like max being billy's sister and steddie being dustin's dad (2 in 1 father woah)

This happened because i love polyships i love multi shipping and i love the greater seattle area polycule meme.

*yes im aware Eddie is like 20 or 21 but hes still a highschooler and very much has the mentality of one. See: Munson Doctrine

[firefighterbracket]

i headcanon my beloved blorbo Eddie Diaz as demisexual (and gay).

and i just read hattalove's hate to say i spent it all on masquerades in which Buck is ace and honestly i see it and i love it.

I literally don't watch any other firefighter shows so ace/acespec buddie it is

have a great day/night :)

If you see me adding to my to-read list, yes you do.

Honestly, ace/acespec Buddie is fun! I love it!

[ropsus]

Weewoo show asks :) 12, 18, 25, 27, 35, 39, 57 aaaand 63. Go ham!! :D

Uuuu thank you so much!!! I'll gladly dive right in!!

12. Favorite storyline?

Oh man, starting out with the tough ones I see. How am I supposed to pick just one?? There are so many good ones!! Although I have to say I've been really in my "Bobby is Buck's dad!!!" era recently so maybe I'll go with that.

18. Favorite rescue?

Oooff, another tough one. The first one that comes to mind is the bus getting stuck in the skyrise from 4x01 (at least I think it's in that one?) mainly because I love the fact that Buck and Eddie just silently work so well together in the scene where Eddie is lowering Buck onto the bus from the roof on the building.

25. Character you'd like to come back?

Well, we already have Ravi back so I guess I can't pick him :D So I'll say Michael even though I know that won't happen and for good reason, too, but I really miss the Bobby and Michael shenanigans.

27. Favorite quote?

Again, how do I pick just one?? Then again, I've put Eddie saying "That's what the 118 is, the family we chose" into two different bujos so probably that one, it just encompasses what I love most about the show besides the running theme of healing and finding happiness again.

35. Underrated moment?

Okay, so, I don't know if this counts as underrated (probably not) but I really loved the scene where Hen said that she and Karen proposed at the same time.

39. Your favorite headcanon?

Demisexual Eddie my most beloved

57. Happy or sad episodes?

That totally depends on my mood but I tend to skew more towards the happy ones.

63. Moment that makes you go i n s a n e?

The will reveal. Just. The way the went about is just So!! Most times I feel like I'm still trying to process that one scene even when we've had two full seasons since :D

[corrodedcoffinhcs]

📌Important HCs

Hello hello! And welcome to CorrodedCoffinHCs, the one-stop shop for headcanons about all four of our favorite guys! This post is essential to understanding certain headcanons I will post! Eddie Munson: -Eddie is mlm or at the very least bisexual, with that in mind, most headcanons about him in a relationship will be pertaining to men or masculine-presenting people. If that bothers you, there are plenty of other Eddie headcanon blogs you can check out! Gareth Emerson: -Gareth is a trans man, as a trans man myself this is a non-negotiable for me, and all my headcanons about him are under the assumption that he is trans. -Gareth is bisexual, thus there will be relationship headcanons about him and masc-presenters, fem-presenters, and andro-presenters. Jeff: -I picked the last name Smith for Jeff, just out of convenience and because it was a popular last name in the 80s, this isn't incredibly important, I just wanted to be sure to mention it so as to not confuse people. -Jeff is also bisexual. Freak: -I picked the name Grant Clark for our beloved Freak #1. The name Grant was taken from the actor that portrays him, and the last name Clark was randomly generated. -He uses "freak" as a genuine nickname to take the power away from the word and piss off Jason and his jocks. -Grant is panromantic and demisexual.
