the "rip ___ you would have loved ___" meme is inherently more fun with ancient characters. rip clytemnestra you would have loved morse code. rip theseus you would have loved the airtag. rip callisto you would have loved wearing shorts.

"The magic system is never fully explained" yeah that's how life works. Imagine having a story set in modern day America and the characters have several pages of exposition on combustion engines and telecommunication networks before we get to the plot

i think this is absolutely correct and good writing advice but also victor hugo would like to have a word with you about the parisian sewer system circa 1832

[bendingsignpost]

victor hugo would like to have many words with you about the parisian sewer system circa 1831

I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive

Honey, remember what your union rep said about working off the clock

[valtsv]

if you're an adult behaving immaturely i'm not going to "treat you like a child" about it because i have a lot of respect for children as an oppressed and vulnerable class of people. i will however treat you like an embarrassment. which you are being.

Just sitting here thinking about Buck trying to get Theo into sports or something so that he can find an outlet for his endless energy. So Buck shows him a bunch of different pamphlets for sports at the rec department: soccer, tee ball, basketball, etc. To no one’s surprise, Theo seems fascinated by basketball.

Of course, it’s basketball. Buck hates basketball, but if Theo wants to try it then he’ll do whatever that kid wants. When he goes to sign Theo up for the sport, they say they’ll have to add him to a waiting list. The reason? They don’t currently have enough parent volunteers to coach another 4-5 basketball team.

Buck knows nothing about basketball. Literally nothing - not that this seriously matters because it’s 4-5 year olds - but he can’t just let them not have a team that Theo and can play on. So what does he do? He tells the rec he’s got a perfect volunteer to coach and signs Eddie up.

After doing so, Buck is a little worried that Eddie is going to be mad that he signed him up for this without asking so he makes a big dinner, gets his truck washed, buys his favorite beer at the store, and goes across down for Eddie’s favorite desert. But it turns out he didn’t need to do all that because Eddie’s not even remotely mad. He’s thrilled, telling Buck, “Theo wants to play basketball? Are you kidding? This is perfect! Finally there’s a Buckley that wants to play basketball with me!”

He shows up to their next shift with a pair of basketball court shoes and a tiny LA Lakers jersey for Theo. As well as a dry-erase clipboard with the basketball court outlined on it and markers because he’s planning on making practice plans during their down time. The rest of the 118 are so confused as to why Eddie is the one coaching this team and not Buck, and keep sharing so many funny looks. But Buck can’t stop smiling because Eddie is just so excited.

When the first practice rolls around Eddie picks up Theo to take him to the gym while Buck goes to pick up Chris from some after school thing and bring the post-practice snacks for the kids because Eddie might be the coach, but Buck is the official snack dad. When Chris and Buck show up at the gym they stake seat on the bleachers with the other parents waiting for practice to end and watch. It’s a little chaotic because they’re 4 year old boys, but Eddie is so good with kids that they’re latching on to every word he says. Are the kids any good? Not in the slightest, but they’re trying their best and Eddie is beaming the whole time.

One of the mom’s comes and sits next to them, introduces herself and asks, “Which one is yours?” When he points out Theo, she says, “Oh, Theo? That means you must be Coach Eddie’s husband. God, you really know how to pick him. That man’s a miracle worker. You’re so lucky.” Buck nearly chokes, but before he can correct her, Chris pipes up beside him with a smirk replying loud enough for her to hear, “Yeah, Buck. We’re so lucky you’ve got a husband like dad.” Buck glares at him because now all the team parents are going to think he and Eddie are actually married, but Chris just gives him a shit-earring grin before going back to scrolling on his phone.

When they take turns practicing shooting at the end the only one to make a basket is Theo and everyone is so excited. The other kids cheer for him, but the first thing he does is go rushing over to Eddie who scoops him up in a big hug as Theo giggles with excitement over his basket, talking a mile a minute by giving him a replay of the shot as if Eddie hadn’t just witnessed it. Eddie just listens intently, nodding along grinning widely as he reacts to Theo’s retelling. Buck physically can’t stop the way his chest cracks in half at seeing the two of them together. Beside him Chris sighs and says, “Those heart eyes you’re wearing right now? That’s why people think you’re married.”

Buck scoffs, “I do not look at your dad with heart eyes.”

“Buck, you’ve looked at my dad with heart eyes every single day since I was seven. I know what it looks like. It’s seared into my brain.”

Buck doesn’t have time to think about Chris’s comment because Eddie calls for practice to end. After a quick chat and a team chant, Eddie directs the kids over to Buck and Chris to get snacks. In the chaos of Buck and Chris handing out snacks he doesn’t realize at first that Theo hasn’t joined them. Not until he’s got two extra snack baggie and juice boxes (one labeled with Spider-Man and the other Coach Eddie). When he looks up he sees Theo still running around on the court giggling wildly, carrying the basketball as Eddie chases him around. Eventually Eddie scoops up the 4-year-old and lifts him up to basket and lets Theo dunk. With a cheer, Theo kicks his legs for Eddie to let him down to he can get the ball and they can do it again.

That feeling comes back as he watches them this time, only for Chris to elbow him and tease, “You’re doing it again.”

Buck thinks in that moment… okay, yeah. Maybe I am… and maybe… maybe Maddie was right. It wouldn’t be so crazy…

Next shift Buck will know that the pretty guy he made out with the other night at a bar is actually his new coworker. What he’s gonna do about it?🫢

The way the show repeatedly implicates how borderline inept Buck and Eddie must be at doing maintenance/busywork if not placed together while on the same shift is *chefs kiss*.

The, “Trauma bag?”-“Yep.”-“What was that?”-“Hm, check!”, exchange in 4x06? The disaster boys did not have to both do the stocktaking, but for sure it would have taken twice as long due to yappity-yapping across the station floor if one of them was, idk, doing laundry or sweeping the stairs.

The way Chimney interrupts them doing hose maintenance in 2x17, chiding “that’s not the most efficient way to do that!” before proceeding to show them that it is definitely, absolutely, no ifs-or-buts about it, possible to roll up a firehose sans your boybestie. (Also Eddie only contributing by loosely holding the unrolled part of the hose? Iconic.)

Oh, and my personal favourite, 8x09. Not only are they cleaning the glass wall of the locker room in tandem, a task clearly meant for one, they are also failing spectacularly by only washing the top half, meaning someone else will have to jump in later and finish the job. Useless4Useless have successfully turned a one man assignment into a three person project. I imagine this was only allowed to happen because the alternative would generate an amount of additional work to justify a full on multi-shift task-force.

The rest of 118 is so used to this dynamic, when it’s brought up they kinda just shrug and say “We know it seems inefficient, but trust, separating them just leads to more chores for the rest of us. Stick ‘em in a corner together and the chaos is contained.”

something something buck saying “eddie would never do something illegal. eddie has a silver star”. something something the context of that convo being eddie committing crimes for buck. something something eddie saying “arrest me later” as he runs to buck with heart eyes. something something be gay do crime.

Edmundo Diaz was created specifically for fanfic girlies because what do you mean he has this insane back story, so many layers to gender roles, (teen) parenthood, parentification, queer subtext, varied interests and hobbies (Muay Thai, basketball), mental health /PTSD, guard dog behaviour, complex relationship with authority, the Buddie of it all, and so much more AND IS BARELY EXPLORED IN CANON

The sheer potential of him is such fanfic fodder, I love him sm

[stablefuse]

when buck and eddie just do things together, share space together or absolutely do nothing also together. they’re just that clingy
