Firstly, I wanna say hi and Im a fan of your meta post. I love reading them. I just love them. So, I wanna ask. Do you know the Red\Blue theory surrounding Buddie? If so can you elaborate on this? I really wanna know and wanna know your thoughts on this, Thank you in advance

Awwww! hi lovely, and thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so happy you enjoy those meta posts! And thank you for letting me know, it's never something I take for granted! *hugs*

Oooh, the red/blue theory. I believe I've gotten an ask about it in the past, but Tumblr's search function is a disgrace to coding, so I'm not sure how to find it. I do know it and that the red/blue theory is a general theory in fandom, not just the Buddie/911 fandom, about how shows use red and blue to symbolize opposites who complete each other, red for the more fiery character and blue for the more sensible one. NGL, this would work so well for Buck and Eddie in THE scene at the end of ep 303. They're in those colors and the symbolism matches their roles in that scene perfectly. And I know costume designers do sometimes think about costume colors, I had a friend who studied stage design for theater and for example, she told me that red and yellow together are meant to represent conflict since they're two "basic" colors that clash. So people in these professions do think about colors and their effect. But TBH, other than that iconic scene, I'm not sure I've seen red/blue in a very obvious way that plays into those roles for Buck and Eddie. I'll add here that I hesitate to look at the blue of their uniforms for this, since it's not like the wardrobe department has a choice about that one. And then there are certain places where I'd expect it, but it's not there. For example, in 414 when Buck and Eddie have THE talk, which parallels their talk in 303, their colors don't align with the theory at all. I'll continue to keep an eye out, though. I do think it will be interesting if we see something else matching it in s5. ;) Thank you so much for the ask, lovely! xoxox

Ooooh, to the Nonnie with the fic prompt, thank you so much! I love it and I wanna write it! I hope I can and that you'll like it! xoxox

(more under the cut)

Music nonnie back again! Not commenting on anything from the finale (i lowkey hated Skyscraper lol), but knowing what we know now re: Eddie's will, I wanted to revisit the EddieAna math date. It has so many layers now! Eddie bringing Chris' math hw bc the connection is more Ana/Chris than Eddie/Ana (right, Carla?), Ana saying there hasn't been anyone else and Eddie reacting with THAT look, and then the song about needing to get home...Eddie going home to Buck? Come on now!

Hi Music Nonnie! It's always such a wonderful thing, to get to hear from you! :D And oh, I am SO with you, that date from ep 408 has a different meaning, after Carla implied Eddie's main reason to be with Ana would be Chris. Because bringing homework to a romantic date, even if the person you're dating is a teacher, is weird. Actually scratch that, *especially* if the person you're dating is a teacher. When people are off work, the last thing they wanna hear about is work, you get what I mean? Even when they love what they do, they usually want a bit of respite from it. And I know I commented on how weird bringing homework to the date is. But it makes perfect sense if it was a way to point out that Chris is why Eddie is pushing so hard with Ana, the 'playful' teacher talk keeps happening because her being Chris' teacher is constantly on his mind. Oh, Eddie's kiss with Ana being interrupted so he can go home to his (husband) best friend was already all sorts of domestic and fanfic-y, but knowing that despite getting together with Ana for Chris' sake, Buck was always the ultimate partner for Eddie when it came to Chris, that just makes the choices in that ep stand out even more! Loved talking about this with you, thank you! xoxox

Alice,my gorgeous love, how are you? I have two questions for you👉👈 1. I've written about this in my blog and I'd like to know your opinion. There were no eddiana kisses due to the whole season. Could it be because of the covid as in maybe Ryan wasn't ready or something like that, or because of the narrative as in to emphasize their lack of chemistry in their relationship? 2. Ravi and Albert are going to be a part of 118, how much they are going to effect on Buddie? Because to me they may seem like their younger version lol. Maybe they are the ones who will notice and will idk push buck and Eddie to get together. Sounds crazy ik lol Hope you have a great evening. Also I hope you will create some amazing and incredible fics and I can not wait to read them. I also gonna be honest with you and say that I miss talking to you in private. I know you have a lot of things going on and I respect your life and your privacy. I just want to let you know that and I love you and I appreciate you 💕💕

@christopherismybuddie my darling love! Thank you so much for the ask and I hope you're doing well yourself! *hugs*

oh, as for the kissing thing... If it were about covid, they shouldn't have exchanged even a cheek kiss without masks on, so I tend to think it was a deliberate storytelling choice. Yes, I think everything lines up to tell us something isn't working with Eddie and Ana. They've been 'together' longer than Buck and Taylor, but we never got more than that cheek kiss in 414 with EddieAna, while BuckTaylor got a proper kiss in the same ep! That already says a lot about something being wrong with the EddieAna dynamic.

Oh, is Ravi a permanent addition, do we have news of that? And I def feel like Albert is meant to be a younger version of Buck. I can see him maybe observing something and just dropping a truth bomb on Buck without even realizing what he's done, but ultimately, I'd think the show would want something more dramatic than that for the couple of idiots who keep getting themselves almost killed in front of each other, and make each other the center of their life, and are still oblivious to get what they feel... XD

Thank you for wanting to read more fics from me! ;_; You have no idea how much that means, sweetheart! And I know, I wish I was around more too, but for now, I figure every day I can be in fandom despite my struggles is a win. Thank you for telling me and making me feel wanted, and I love and appreciate you too, my darling! So much! xoxox

what's happening in this fandom right now? I mean like I see the blogs I follow fighting like aren't you guys friends? Don't we love the same guys? Isn't this all about Buck and Eddie?????? What is happening?

I have no idea? And I’m not fighting with anyone! If an anon wants to wildly misinterpret my blog and spread lies about me to other blogs then I hope they got the text back/vindication/weird sense of clout they were looking for. At the end of the day I’m here to have a good time and be a clown and love this dumb firefighter show. I’ve been in other fandoms where I’ve been called all sorts of awful things, I can handle random strangers calling me a white feminist. I’m genuinely more annoyed that anyone would suggest I’ve ever defended Shannon, the audacity 😂😂😂😂

Hi can I ask, What program do you use to make this awesome gifsets? I kinda wanna make one for myself and is confused with alot of reccomendation in the internet. Thank you in advance. I love your gifsets BTW. I use them for my phone home screen.

hi! sorry, but i haven't made any gifsets. if you're asking about the icons i've made, i used pixlr editor. it's open source, free to use, and easy to learn. all the gifsets i've reblogged belong to the people who originally made them. i hope this helps!

Eddie went from thinking Buck stayed away for selfish reasons:

to realizing that Buck always assumes nobody would miss him if he were gone:

Hi, I love the gif you make. I use them for my phone lock screen. Can i ask what program do you use? I kinda wanna make my own but there are so many recommendation on the internet. Thank you in advance!

aww ty!! and i just use photoshop !! i know there are some other programs out there for gifmaking but i decided to go with photoshop just bc i've always seen an abundance of tutorials for it (vs other programs) and thought it'd be the path of least resistance lol

I had originally planned News Reporter Buck to be a single one shot, but I am so excited and happy that so many readers are telling me they want more in the verse! 

I would love to know what you all would like to see happen in the series, especially since this is going from a one shot in my head to multiple stories.

 There’s a space on the poll to write in other ideas, or you can always leave them in a comment or message her on tumblr as well.

Thanks so much!

OMg Tina What's happening this season its like the writers are hyping us for something!!! OMG! No one can deny it now!

Imagine where we'd be if this fandom wasn't full of so many talented writers? 🤭 Tim has staff members sorting through the Buddie tag on ao3 as we speak in an attempt to decide how the love confession should finally happen.

[outrunningthedark]

You okay, love? Tina, we're here for you and know that your opinions Matter. I love reading them. I love the way you are with the Buckley-Diaz Family unit. I just wanna say that. Hope this brighten your day....

Hello, beautiful soul! 💕💕💕 I am doing just fine because of friends like you. Ableist messages don’t sting as much when you know someone had to hide their identity before hitting send ;)

[outrunningthedark]

Hi, I just wanna say I love you and your opinions on Matters. I love your blog. I hope this brighten your day!!!

This is exactly what I needed to see after the latest discourse 🥰😍😘 You are an absolute sweetheart! I hope you have a lovely weekend! 🌈☀️🌼
