#chain of command

[chollybolly]

Eddie and Buck finally having their first kiss when Buck pulls back, “We shouldn’t do this.”

Confusion and hurt wash over Eddie’s face as Buck quickly continues, “We uh, we work at the same station! We need to report if anything’s happening between us. You know, chain of command.”

Eddie’s mouth ticks up as a breathy laugh leaves it, “Fuck chain of command,” he says pulling Buck back in.

Buck always saw chain of command as essentially 'how you get punished'. It was a threat. It's part of why when he goes to Chimney he is asking to be fired - he's looking for punishment, and he expects the chain of command to give him what he thinks he deserves. And sometimes, with shitty bosses, that *is* what chain of command is, but not at the 118. Because Eddie's right, here it really is so that no one person has to carry the weight alone, and the entire 118 family has been trying to show him that. Such a nice little arc for this disagreement between the two of them coming to a place of understanding and care uuuugggghh
