#buddie thoughts

[retroize]

i really love the idea that eddie is going to spoil theo rotten because yes!! absolutely!!

#thinking about how back in season 8 he was pouting over chris not being into halloween anymore and just outgrowing a lot of these things they used to have so much fun doing, that he now gets to do them again with theo because we know he'll be just as involved as buck in the raising of this kid. plus, i like thinking it could be a way for chris to regain interest in those things too, so they can do them as a family

crying laughing actually why are they like this

What if we get a tiny tiny tiny🤏 hint that Eddie is bothered or jealous about Buck hooking up with people... Just a little, subtle confirmation that there's ~something~👀... Perhaps just one of his miniscule eye brow twitches🤨... You all know what I'm talking about... Or what about a sarcastic comment that barely disguises just one☝️ not so platonic feeling, and then Ravi's face does that same thing it does when Buck is being crazygirl about Eddie😏...

What I'm saying is I'd take that crumb and savor it forever.🧎‍♀️

Was thinking about them getting Buck back and everyone in his house and he finally manages to kick everyone out, well everyone except Eddie. Eddie just continues to walk around his house like he lives there doing chores for Buck. He’s doing his laundry from Nashville and Buck limps his way to the laundry room and is like “you know you can go home right?” And Eddie looks over his shoulder at him and nods “yeah I know.” But he just keeps going. Buck watches him for a bit but moves back to the living room listening to Eddie move around. Thinking about Eddie going into the kitchen to cook for Buck like Buck has cooked for his family over and over again, Buck plopping himself down at the island and watching Eddie and Eddie asking “aren’t you supposed to be resting?” To which Buck fires back “aren’t you?” There’s something heavy in the air between them, has been for a while now but it seems to have only gotten more noticeable since the kidnapping. Thinking about Buck once again telling Eddie he can go home in an attempt to get Eddie to not prioritize him, because Buck doesn’t want to somehow force Eddie to have to take care of him or put in more effort than he thinks he’s worth. Eddie fighting back finally saying that he needs to be here, with Buck because Buck could have been dead and Eddie couldn’t stop thinking of the scenario where they didn’t get him in time. Thinking about Buck getting up and putting his hands on either side of Eddie’s face and makes him look at him and Eddie holds onto bucks wrists as Buck says “I’m right here.” And it’s like all the tension is Eddie’s shoulders melts and the 2 of them launch into each other and hug like it’s the last time they’ll ever see one another. Eddie’s fists are balling up the back of bucks hoodie, Buck is near about lifting Eddie off of the ground until Buck repeats “I’m right here” a few more times and then it starts to devolve and he starts to shake and the dynamic shifts from Buck holding Eddie up to Eddie holding Buck up until they both collapse from everything yet to be spoken. Thinking about them sitting next to each other on the floor between the island and the counter legs pressed together, Eddie’s head resting on bucks shoulder, the 2 leaning into one another.

I could go on. But I’m at work so I won’t.

AUGH them. 💛

The reason I don’t have an ounce of buddie doubt right now is because I do not think this show is gonna queerbait us.

We’ve been introduced to queer characters (queer main characters no less) since episode one. This show is very much intending queer people to watch it. They wouldn’t have to make new potential queer characters because they’ll still have a substantial queer audience.

The creators and actors are both super aware of buddie and fans’ thoughts about them. If they don’t want buddie’s relationship to be romantic, they could’ve toned down on the romantic chemistry between Buck and Eddie a long time ago. Yet they keep pushing it. They didn’t have to make Buck canonically bi. But they did. 

Still, they could’ve given him and Tommy a healthy and beautiful relationship that is slowly built up over time, like the other main couples in the show have if they really wanted them to be end game. Yet they continue to give them unhealthy conflict throughout season eight. Much of which is about Eddie. It’s normal for couples to fight, and even temporarily break up, but the reason Buck and Tommy not getting back together being about Eddie?? That has to mean something.

Meanwhile, Buck and Eddie’s relationship has been building up for seasons now. We see them hanging out outside of work, they communicate, they express their care for each other in more ways than one. Eddie (along with Christopher) is shown to be of utmost importance to Buck. They take care of each other when they’re hurt, they care more about the other’s opinion than anyone else’s, and they always make up when they argue. Compare that with the three genuine scenes we get between Buck and Tommy (and even that’s pushing it), and buddie has way more chemistry than they ever will.

Also the fact that not one but two people suggested, straight to Buck’s face, that he might be in love with Eddie?? In the most recent season (when by now everyone knows about buddie’s existence in the fandom)?? I don’t think that was an accident.

If buddie not planned from the beginning then why buddie first scene getting along by the bisexual pinball machine highlighting the matching tattoos?

Need a fic where it's Buckfidelity and Eddie is *so* smug and sure that he's got Buck now because *c'mon on* that he's just nonchalantly reclining back on the bed - completely naked btw - while Buck's pacing and freaking out in front of him (also naked) because he just cheated on Tommy holy shit that's not him and Eddie's like "Buck, whatever you decide to do I'm *totally* gonna have your back" whilst internally fully expecting Buck to come back to him after havin' broken up with Tommy but hey no one said he can't have a lil' fun in the mean time so as seductively as he can manage it he gets out of bed - still 100% naked - and walks away like "I need a shower after all that hot sex we can have a talk when I come back" and like throws a wink at Buck in the last second before he disappears the water is barely hot before Buck corners Eddie in the shower and Eddie's like "what took you so long" and Buck's like "was deciding how much Tommy needed to know in the breakup text" AND THEN THEY FUCK NASTY AGAIN
