Buck Buckley - Blog Posts

Hey so I try my hardest to avoid what ever is going on with the Flaming Homosexuals ( Eddie and Bucky ) but for my sake of understanding as I scroll past the posts at Mach 12, I have a couple questions:

They’re firemen, right? Do you guys call them Flaming Gays? Cause if not you’re really missing out with that one.

Which one of them is out as bisexual, and is the show still pretending the other one is straight?

This is really embarrassing but…what actually is the show’s name? Every time I’ve thought I knew the answer ( twice ) it turned out I was wrong.

Buckley-Diaz Family: Dear Theodosia by Lin-Manuel Miranda

Ok I need everyone to understand that Buck and Eddie are both products of their upbringing. Buck was a child of neglect, which led to him having abandonment issues. While Eddie was a child forced to grow up too fast, which led to him having hyper-independence. Two different kind of traumas. Two different kinds of trauma response. Which would require two different kinds of help.

Buck and Eddie help each other overcome these things and because they are two different kinds of problems, the way they help will ALSO be different. Ever since they met, Eddie has always been there for Buck (don't even fight me on this) and Buck has always given Eddie what he needs. It will look imbalanced, but it's really not. They both need SOMEONE in their lives, just in different ways.

Buck doesn't need someone to take over his lease, or to take care of his son, or to help him figure out childcare, he needs someone to Not Leave Him Alone. Eddie doesn't need someone to tell him he's not expendable, or to be reassured he's trustworthy, or to be promised he's not going to be abandoned, he needs someone to Give Him a Helping Hand. And the moment they became friends they have been those SOMEONES to each other.

They are each other's persons. Equally.

oh hey by the way watching tonight's episode was wild and reminded me that i wrote a fic where tommy taylor accused buck of being in love with eddie so he went to talk to maddie about it and kept talking about how he'd never allowed himself to think about it bc eddie is Straight™

anyway this is just me saying if you'd like to read a fic with that plot you could read finding our way (back home)

which was literally written in the middle of s5 in 2022 lol

i’ve seen too many people only headcanon buck as being autistic when bobby — who has the most autistic gaze i have ever seen in my life — is right there, hyperfocusing on the right amount of cocoa powder to add to his recipe

THE WAY THEY ALWAYS LOSE EACH OTHER IN THE RAIN I CANNOT COPE 😭

If I had a nickel for every time Buck and Eddie have lost each other in the rain, I’d have three nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it’s happened thrice.

i love how buck was like: im an ally of the queer community! like no babe you ARE the community

Also why’s no one talking about “I’m your first, not last” line? I’m pretty sure I saw something like this in the title of some b*ddie fanfic. Like what the fuck? What does this even mean? It’s another proof that writers bait b*ddie shippers. They want them to go wild and write “yes! Tommy is his first but Eddie will be his last!” all over the internet.

And it also can be the best opportunity to show that no Tommy is his first and last if they deal with this break up.
