woke up and im still pissed at what they did with eddie. at what he said to buck. I just don't get what they were thinking. I thought eddie dealing with grief in aggressive ways was something we saw him deal with in S3 and in S5 after what happened to him in both those seasons. that he got help. I don't get why they wrote him backsliding so hard.
its been how many fucking seasons and you're telling me he hasn't done anything to deal with this side of himself he knows full well exists? he still reacts to grief with anger and violence?? that's not something I can just look past cuz this isn't his first time going through grief. its not catching him by surprise. and the last time in S3 he punched someone's nose into their brain, and in S5 he trashed his whole room though that was compounded with the aftermath of him being shot, but still. this is a problem. a repeated pattern of behaviour. and I really thought we moved past this.
and I'm really annoyed with eddie for using chris as a band-aid for whenever he's fucked up, instead of apologising and owning up to what he did, distancing himself from his own actions. what is this. anger might be a stage of grief but that doesn't excuse eddie and it doesn't mean buck has to just take it. he put his hands on him, buck flinched. im so angry.
