Station 118 To The Rescue!!!

Everything 9-1-1, also complete and utter Buddie trash. Like they are perfect 👌🏼the true otp!!!! Okay and also Bathena trash!!!!!

[station-118]

I know everyone has been making comparisons with Eddie/Buck to Dean/Castiel since this past episode had Carry on my Wayward son in it… but after a convo with a friend I don’t think that’s what the writers were going for when they put that in there like that!

Supernatural was originally just about two brothers traveling around the country in a car. And that’s when the song was first played within the show

And then they played it at the beginning of the episode while Buck and Eddie where traveling across states together on a road trip home.

It seems like a very pointed message aimed at all of us

And yes I know what everyone’s going to say “but they had several people mistake Buck and Eddie for a couple” but the same thing happened with Sam and Dean multiple times throughout Supernatural. Several times, especially in season 1, people thought Sam and Dean were a romantic couple.

May get some hate for this but I really don’t like how the rest of the Tommy fandom (mostly the Bucktommy shippers) talk about Eddie, and this is coming from a Tommy stan. Especially when it’s clear yall have decided before things happen to have him just because you don’t like Buddie shippers

Like the way some of you all genuinely think he’s abusive and a bad friend and hates Buck and their relationship is one sided, and that the show actually WANTS you to see it that way, mostly because he doesn’t pander to every need of Buck and just treats him like the adults they both are.

Not shipping Buddie I completely understand (especially as someone who was a former Buddie and left that side of the fandom because of how toxic they are) but he and Buck are best friends and the show has made that clear over the years. So it just seems like you guys have previously decided before scenes even air that Eddie is the devil incarnate and whatever he’s about to do is awful.

It’s especially kind of icky when people write fics or ficlets that have Tommy coming to save Buck from the evil Eddie or “calling him out”, proceeded by Buck thanking Tommy or laughing with him about how “petty” he was for doing that.

Obviously you can write what you want since it’s fic but that’s probably the most out of character way you could ever write Buck because again, they are best friends and he wouldn’t like Tommy talking to Eddie like that (which we’ve seen in canon with how defensive he gets with Eddie). Buck also is, again, a grown man in his thirties and probably wouldn’t want someone taking care of things like that for him.

It’s also extremely frustrating because it then relegates Tommy to just Buck’s love interest or savior instead of his own complex character that he is. Which is weird because that’s something we all asked for from the show but then people turn around and write exactly that in their fics.

It’s kind of giving racism, and if you don’t like Ryan that’s one thing (because I agree) but he isn’t Eddie and this weird hate train towards Eddie just because you don’t like Buddie shippers is extremely weird.

Maybe it’s just my Eddietommy stan brain talking, but the way this fandom talks about both of those character does not sit right with me.

See I’m a multi shipper, so I ship Buddie, Tevan, and Polyfire (for those who don’t know that’s Eddie/Buck/Tommy)!

And unfortunately it kind of feels like ever since the show moved over to ABC they’ve pulled back on the Buddie friendship and have been working to undo all the previous seasons work of making them into friends. I am pissed off at the way that Eddie has been characterized ever since they moved to ABC. It honestly feels like they were purposefully trying to ruin Eddie’s character so people would be okay with it if he left the show!

Like the scene where Eddie talks to Buck about how he and Tommy are going for a trivia night and asks Buck if he’s free that night, knowing how much Buck loves trivia and getting him excited thinking he’s being invited to hang out with them doing trivia, only for Eddie to just kind of off-handedly go “great you can babysit Chris for me then”. And then not seeing the let down kind of heart broken look on Buck’s face. It kind of gave off the vibes of, “oh I’ve got a cool new friend I wanna hang out with now so I’ve completely forgotten about my best friend!”

And then the whole kitchen scene after Bobby’s death. That one was completely unnecessary! Eddie talked all about how Buck hasn’t talked to them about his feelings on Bobby’s death, only just checked up on them (which would have been a perfect moment for any of them to check up on Buck in return but none of them did that), when earlier in the episode they mention how everyone has been avoiding talking to him about it because they supposedly don’t know how to talk to him. And then throws that at Buck like it’s somehow his fault that no one has bothered to attempt to talk to him cause they feel awkward about it. And to once more essentially tell Buck that him having feelings about watching the man he saw as a father die is him making everything about him!!

Like I don’t see that scene as cute, or adorable, or sweet, or romantic. I see it as terrifying. Not because I’m being racist but because I have personal trauma! Because I’ve been in arguments like that before. The subject matter of the arguments weren’t the same but the way the arguments played out were. And in those moments during those kinds of arguments the only thing I’m feeling is angry and afraid. Watching that scene, seeing them raising their voices like that at each other, seeing Eddie lunge towards Buck even if he didn’t hit him or anything, had me experiencing a panic attack. Because the last time I had an argument like that with someone I loved and trusted it ended with that person lunging at me and putting their hands around my throat and trying to strangle me!

And I think another problem with this is, a lot of toxic Buddie Stan’s will say the kitchen scene is cute, and sweet, and romantic, and say how it shows just how in love they are and how much of a couple they are. And then some of them will turn around immediately after that and say “yeah I just wish Eddie would have punched Buck in the face in that scene”. But then the second someone points out how that scene isn’t romantic at all they’ll unironically say that person is saying Eddie is violent and abusive and completely miss the fact that they themselves were just talking about how they wanted Eddie to punch Buck in the face, I.E. abuse the person they see him as being in a relationship with!!

I still love Eddie’s character and I still love Buddie. But I honestly prefer pre-ABC Eddie to post-ABC Eddie. And I definitely prefer pre-AbC Buddie to post-ABC Buddie!!

can't stop thinking of the person who said bobby made eddie drive after the lightning strike because eddie drives like a maniac. now, i can't unsee it. teenage rebel eddie diaz who drives way too fast and weaves through traffic like a drag racer. makes sense he failed his driving test twice and had to hotwire cars so he could drive without a license

Honestly kind of annoyed that it wasn’t Athena who showed up to arrest the dude living in Buck’s attic!!

Like I wanted Sargent mama bear Athena showing up cause she heard Buck’s new address over the radio while on shift and just went “oh hell no” and took the call.

I wanted her having that “excuse you” look she does when the guy calls Buck an idiot.

But overall if anyone would understand Buck’s want of it being Bobby’s ghost haunting him it’s Athena!!

[fire-fam-feels]

did it occur to anybody else that buck let himself snap at that guy for calling him an idiot– but not ravi for being the first to do it, or chim for making fun of him baking, or eddie stepping on his hope of talking to bobby– because it was "safe" to be angry without worrying about being abandoned for expressing a single negative fking emotion? he tries so hard not to lash out at his loved ones– but they're the reason he needs to right now. his support system is not supporting him in coping.

can't they see he hasn't moved past bobby yet? that was his dad– he needs more time than it's been and more consideration than he's getting.

It would be so wild if they spent the whole season showing us the characters all grieving for Bobby only for them to pull a switch on us in the last minute of the last episode of the season and show that we’ve all been right the entire time and Bobby really has been alive and trapped in a government facility!! I could totally see them having next seasons big disaster three part opener being Bobby escaping the lab he’s been locked in
