#eddie is protective of buck

[deluweil]

What kills me is that ever since Buck was asked to be a sperm donor, we see Buck in uncle capacity, in a friend of Denny's mom capacity, with kids on calls, but not with Christopher.

The last time we saw Christopher with Buck was at that domestic scene in 6x01. It was, to all intents and purposes, Christopher having dinner with his two dads. There was no other scene with Buck and Christopher since them.

There was talk about him, but no actual time spent together. (For example, in 6x04 and 6x08)

I think this is to make the distinction of Buck giving his own sperm to create a child, but that child is not his to raise.

He may be there as a fun uncle, or a friend of dad's, or just some stranger firefighter who was called to help in an emergency in the house that child will grow up in.

He/she may be Buck’s biologically, but they will not be his. Whereas Christopher may not be Buck's biologically, but he is his in a way.

Christopher has been his to help raise with Eddie. If we ever get to see them get together, he can be there as another father. Or he will legally become Buck’s if anything ever happens to Eddie.

Buck's already there as a second father figure. It's not by accident that we haven't gotten any more scenes between Buck and Christopher. They are showing us the distinction between what is and what can't ever be.

Eddie’s clear dissatisfaction with the situation isn't out of jealousy or anger. He is worried for Buck. He also knows the kind of father Buck can be, the kind that he already is.

In addition, the thought of having a baby Buckley out there that they can't see or protect - that extension of his best friend, (family, Tv-gods willing love of his life) it feels wrong to Eddie and we can see it all over his face.

There will also be Buck's mental health to consider, the breakdown is close, and Buck has a tendency to put himself in harm's way when things get too close to home. That may scare Eddie as well.

Eddie is also a father who once fathered a child and then left to go to war. When he came back his family wanted him to relinquish Christopher to them.

Eddie couldn't do it, didn't want to do it, not just because he thought Christopher would be better off with his father, but because Christopher is his and he loves him, even if they haven't spent too much time together yet. "You're not just any kid. You're my kid."

Knowing Buck, Eddie knows that Buck will love that child for no other reason other than them being his. - He knows this is one decision that will come back to bite him in the ass, and I think that even though Eddie respects Buck's decision enough to not question him, he still voices his own thought, of not being sure if they should congratulate Buck - because he knows that one way or the other this is going to hurt.

And Eddie is a lot of things. Being protective of his Buck is very much one of them.

Buck, to Eddie’s parents: I’m Eddie’s best friend.

Helena and Ramon: That's nice?

Buck: I have survived getting crushed by a fire engine, caught in a tsunami and getting struck by lighting.

Buck: Now, you might be wondering how these three pieces of information may be related.

Helena and Ramon: ...

Buck: Fuck around and find out.

[poughkeepsies]

it got brushed over because of everything else that was happening in the scene but eddie telling buck "you don't have to be anything for anybody" is one of the most devoted protective lines they've ever said to each other or anyone else and I need it to be talked about more

------------------------------------ 𝜗𝜚 --------------------------------------

This particular afternoon the team had come back especially dirty, all members requiring a nice hot shower and a decent scrub to rid their bodies of all that dirt and blood. 

All would be fine if I wasn’t so insecure of my body. Gender-specific shower and changing rooms may have helped but it wouldn’t have defeated the issue nor made me feel that much more comfortable. 

I hugged my arms around my chest loosely as I stood outside the door to the shower room, debating on going in and having that much-needed shower or waiting until everyone was done and risking going to more calls dirty and disgusting.

Buck eyed me from his locker, he’d picked up on my unease from an incident on call. I’d been having a good day until a patient made a passing comment about my body. Buck and Eddie being the only ones who heard were quick to defend but the damage was already done. 

I must have been standing there for a long time because Bobby was already cleaned up and dressed and with Chim and Eddie entering back into the changing room with towels around their waists it left only Hen still showering and Buck and I. 

Showers didn’t take long as we had to be ready in case a call came through, but time didn’t matter when it came to how I felt about my body.

Buck closed his locker and made his way to the entrance of the showers. He stops still in front of me. “You coming, Y/n/n? No offence but you kind of stink, not unlike me.”, he offers me a sympathetic and playful smile. 

I stifle a chuckle, though still displeased with the idea, I follow him in. We pass Hen who smiles at us before leaving. 

Buck turns and strips himself of his shirt, discarding it on the bench that lines the wall opposite the showers. He pauses and turns around to face me when he notices I haven’t moved from where I’m standing. 

I feel awkward, at a loss of what to do. A constant debate in my mind of what I should do and what I want to do. 

“Y/n.”, he says, moving closer to me. Gently he places his hands on my shoulders. “Is this about what happened earlier?”

I look him in the eyes nervously before looking away. Tears brink in my eyes, my bottom lip quivering. I raise my hand to my mouth, anxiously biting at my nails in a subconscious effort to distract myself. 

Carefully as though I may break, Buck lowers my arm and engulfs me in a tight hug. It’s now that tears start falling, soft sobs into the firm chest of the man hugging me. His hand strokes my hair, “Shh, sweetheart.”, he soothes. 

“You have nothing to be embarrassed about, especially when it comes to us.”, he says regarding the rest of the crew. “No one here is going to judge you and in the extremely unlikely scenario that they did, they’d have me to deal with.”

My sobs quiet down, Buck places a light kiss on my forehead and pulls away. “C’mon, let’s get you showered.”, his voice is gentle and caring and provides me a comfort in which I much so needed. His thumb swipes runny mascara from my cheek and he smiles down at me affectionately, a smile I can’t help but force myself to think could be amused and judging.

I nod my head, “Okay.” My voice comes out low and hoarse as I push the idea of Buck judging me out of my head. 

Buck walks over to the light switch and flicks it off. The room is left dim but not in complete darkness as daylight pours in from small windows near the ceiling. 

Behind me his fingertips grab onto the hem of my shirt, resting there. “Is this okay?”, he murmurs and gestures to lifting it. 

“Yeah.”, I say quietly with a nod. He lifts the navy shirt over my head and throws it onto his. Buck scoops my hair up and moves it over my shoulder out of the way. 

Buck pauses, “If you get uncomfortable tell me and I’ll stop.” 

Goosebumps ripple along my skin at the feeling of the cold air and his touch. His fingers hook under the clasp of my bra, undoing it and letting it slide off my arms.

I step away from Buck and make sure to stay facing away from him, “I’ve got the rest.”

I wait until Buck is fully undressed and under the water. Steam rises as the hot water hits the tiled floor and Bucks large muscular back. 

Once completely unclothed I join him, walking in front of him slowly and making minimal eye contact. My arms once again crossed over my chest. 

Buck’s hair is drenched along with his face and body. The hot water helps ease my nerves and wash away the tension, our skin turning red at the temperature. The dirt and grime runs off our bodies, brown and red flowing down the drain until eventually it’s clear. 

Behind me, Buck squirts some shampoo into his hand and runs it through the roots of my hair and massages it into my scalp. Our bodies may both be bare and very close but the intimate experience stays innocent.

 Under the stream of water Buck rakes his hands through my hair and washes out the soapy substance before adding conditioner and shifting my hair over my shoulder. He lays a kiss on the shoulder without hair, staying there for a moment. Buck’s so overcome with the feeling of longing, longing that I could love myself and see myself just as he does. And I wish for that too, I really do. 

We don’t talk but we don’t need to, the silence is comfortable and I eventually start to fully unwind. 

The blonde behind me rubs my shoulders a few times before lathering soap onto his hands. 

His hands innocently wander over the curves and crevices of my back. I close my eyes and I relish in the feeling of being able to exist without judgement even if it’s only with one person or only in this one moment. 

 Buck’s hands travel down the length of my arms. I suck in a deep breath as I know it’s time to turn around. 

“Y/n.”, he says at my hesitation. Slowly I turn, water rinsing the soap from my back and the conditioner from my hair. 

I don’t look at his face until his hand cups my jaw and gently forces it up so my eyes lock with his. 

“Hey, we’re already here. Nothing is changing, I’m not going to suddenly be disgusted by you or whatever you think is going to happen, sweetheart.”, Buck professes. 

I find myself at a loss of words, no one has treated me just how Buck does. “It’s just hard to believe, Buck.”, I reply looking at him sheepishly. 

He nods his head in understanding, “I know, but you have to try.”

Buck reaches for the soap again but gets interrupted by the loud sound of the bell ringing. He lets out a sigh, not annoyed that he didn’t get to properly wash himself but rather at the fact he felt like he failed at trying to make the woman most important to him see how wrong she was about her feelings towards her body.

We both hurriedly dry off and pull on our clothes, being forced to forget prior events. 

As we go throughout the rest of the day I can’t help but get flustered when I look at Buck or when sitting in the fire engine and his thigh brushes against mine.

I never thought I’d wish to be back, naked, in front of Evan Buckley.

Bobby: Eddie, don't get me wrong. I love you and you're great firefighter but I hired you for a reason

Eddie: What are you talking about?

Bobby: My son was so sad after Abby left, I need someone to take care of him

Eddie: I am taking care of him

Bobby: Do you remember these movies where father pays guy for dating his daughter for dating her, but end up falling in love?

Eddie: Yeah, but what is-

Eddie:...

Eddie: I think I get what you wanted

Bobby: Good. You're dismiss

[typicalopposite]

Newbie here who ships both Buddie and BuckTommy and is fine with however this storyline plays out as long as it’s done delicately! Sooo bear that in mind 👀 y’all be scaring me sometimes (affectionate)

Ok! I have watched the bachelor party clip… several times… as any one perfectly sane person would do (Once, because Oooo a new clip! Twice, to fully process and appreciate what’s happening in the clip, and three… dozen more times to try to micro analyze the clip!)

At first I definitely saw Eddie as maybe a little jealous, then I saw it more as playful banter, but now… now it really feels like he’s being kind of protective.

Hear me out…

Tommy is still cool and he’s still Eddie’s friend BUT Tommy is also now dating Buck.

Buck, who Eddie knows is clingy

Buck, who Eddie knows has trust issues

Buck, who Eddie knows wears his heart on his sleeve and is scared of being left and loves so hard and it has always seemed to get him hurt…

…who goes from zero to come with me to my sisters wedding on the second date…

And yeah Eddie likes Tommy. But he loves Buck. And however that love plays out later that’s not the point rn because that’s his best friend and this is the first boyfriend and that look he gives Tommy as he drops the glass in his hand after Buck’s I told you it was 80s theme is just giving that’s strike one Kinard don’t forget I too know Muay Thai. You better not hurt him he is FRAGILE!

Maybe it’s just me 🤷🏻‍♀️

[diaz911]

Eddie Diaz I love you so much because even if it’s not Buck’s intention there is literally nothing that would take more attention away from a couple on their wedding day than the bride’s brother low-key coming out to everyone he knows by showing up with a man for his date. It would be all anyone was talking about. Eddie is so good for lightly, but firmly, calling him out on this. If Buck never kisses you Eddie, just know that I would. I would.

[pokemon1oadvanced]

Can we have a parallel in Season 8 where Christopher’s classmate mistakes Buck for his dad and says something like: ‘you have really cool dads.’ And Chris is like ‘I know’ as he watches them fondly? Like when the lady did the same in that Christmas episode to Buck, the whole ‘you two have an adorable son.’

Like Chris is on a school field trip and theres a fire. The 118 and another house are brought in to handle it and when they get there Eddie and Buck can’t find Chris. So they just run in? Like Bobby did with May?

And they carry Chris and his friend out and check them over and they’re both super worried and Hen is like its okay I’ve got this and so they go back to doing their jobs and Chris’ friend is just so in awe of how cool Chris’ dads are???

The trip is cancelled so they call his over and help Chris into the Engine for a lift home and he’s just all smiles sitting between Buck and Eddie cause, yeah, his dads are pretty cool.

Added points if before Chris got on the bus for the school trip he was complaining about Eddie worrying over him and calling his dad embarrassing like the preteen he is.

Ugh! I just want more Buckley-Diaz Family🥹

[consumedbyfeels]

I just love how i see all this hate towards Tommy Kinard one of the most loyal, kind, genuine, and good people. Instead of towards Gerrard who is playing prejudice bingo and winning. This man is a bigot in all the ways you can be but we don't hate him. No we hate Tommy who is one of the most genuinely good people ever. Please make it make sense. Point your hate is a valid direction please.

I've seen people hate more on Tommy than Margaret and Philip Buckley. I know they got a redemption arc but they deserve some hate as well. I would argue they were forgiven to easily but that's me.

Hate Councilwoman Ortiz for taking Mara away from Hen and Karen and revoking there foster licence.

Hate Ramon and Helena Diaz for instead of calling Eddie just jumping on a plane and then proceeding to take his son with them. Granted in was what Chris wanted but I wonder if given time to calm down and without the Diaz's there he would have decided to stay. Maybe Buck could have talked his feeling through with him and he might have changed him mind if he wasn't thinking about thing so emotionally fuelled and impulsively, granted his is a teenager and that's kinda what they do, so maybe not.

Point is hate someone who deserves to be hated not Tommy who does not deserve it.

Most of the hate towards Tommy isn't even about Tommy anyway. It's the toxic Buddie shippers who hate that Buck has a boyfriend who is not Eddie. I'm not saying all Buddie shippers are toxic cuz some of y'all are fine but the ones who are loudest on my dash are fucking toxic.

There is absolutely nothing to hate Tommy Kinard for. And Buck and Eddie are just friends, Eddie is straight. Ryan has said that Eddie is Hetrosexual and there is nothing to indicate otherwise in cannon. Buck is dating Tommy and thriving. Eddie is happy for them. You are seriously going to have a problem with the first relationship Buck has ever had that is genuinely good just because it's a guy who isn't Eddie. Come on people enjoy your ship that's fine. But don't be a dick about ours.

And please remember to tag your anti tommy kinard posts with #antitommykinard. Blocking the tag only helps if people use it.

wip wednesday

tagged by the lovely @tizniz @wikiangela 💕 here's some more of my new wip: autistic nonverbal buck!! prev snippet

tw: stranger almost saying the r-word to buck

"Just talk, you fucking re-" Eddie feels the anger boiling inside of him and he can't contain it. "If you finish that word, I will ruin your life. And that’s a threat you should take seriously." The guy stumbles backwards, muttering something both Buck and Eddie are glad they didn't hear. Buck plays the message he inputted into his phone for Eddie to hear: You didn't have to do that. I really don't give a shit. "I know. But I give all the shits for you," Eddie replies in a softer tone than he intended to.

Buck:... 'Yes, honey?'
