This reminds me how I started House m.d. because (spoilers even though the last episode aired 11 years ago) in last episode of the show in the last scene House and his best friend ride off together into the sunset because Wilson was dying of cancer.
they’re best friends
This reminded me I finally have Hulu again and can rewatch my favs ♥️♥️♥️♥️
we’re 24 hours out and that feels like a lifetime so i might just have to rewatch all the pivotal buddie episodes tonight to cope 🧐
I blame it on the macarena.
my fav thing abt wwdits is that the intro clearly shows them all dressing for the era and changing their looks, but in the show they dress completely not for the era which means one day they all just decided to not care anymore
Can we talk about how Buck shows his distress in a visceral physical way; shouting Eddie's name, insanely single minded intensity in rescuing him (his eyes during the sniper arc goddamn), saying out loud again and again about how he's got him, shaking hands, broken sobs but Eddie show's his distress in a more quieter way, almost folding it into himself; yes he does shout for Buck but also, when he saves Buck, he immediately becomes more subdued, he drove the truck even though I'm sure everything in him was screaming to be with Buck, he stays with the team and hugs them first and when he sneaks Chris in and cries, it's subdued too-wiping it off immediately, quiet. Even after getting shot when he asks Buck if he's hurt, it's more quiter and gentler (it's probably the blood loss but you know what I mean). Buck grieves with his whole body and heart and Eddie grieves with his soul is what I'm saying. They even complement each other in the way they grieve. Buck needs an anchor to keep him steady while he rages like a storm and Eddie needs someone whose arms he can quietly fall apart in, carrying him ashore gently.
IM GOING FUCKING BESERK
okay i'm gonna start watching what we do in the shadows. here's what i already know before actually watching anything
there's vampires
one of them has hair that looks like cat ears
it's filmed like a reality show or something
there's a vampire hunter(?) dating one of the vampires(?)
all the vampires have titles in their names(?)
that's. i think that's it
I am painfully serious about being spec-less for the finale but I'll tell you what I do have. An extremely good fucking feeling
MMMMHMMMMMM
Derek and Guillermo in whatever relationship they decide to put them in bc they will both be good for one another: 👌👍🤞
Derek purely a Nandermo plot point: 🙅♂️🙅♂️🙅♂️
YEPYEPYEP SAY IT LOUDER
i know its not something you'd know if u didnt read that one article but seeing people refer to the vampires as bi is.... grinding on my nerves to say the least. they're pan yall
Please, I yearn for him to reappear in the show.
i'm so happy derek's back
I feel like Natalia would fall into a sort of Buck has to have gotten hurt first before getting attention.
Has anyone ever talked about Buck and his mommy issues when it comes to relationships?
So, there’s this thing about you tend to date/marry people who either look like you or hold similar traits to your family members. It’s some evolutionary stuff that is something idk, but it’s a thing like a lot of the time.
Margaret was absent, she was there physically, but emotionally and mentally closed off to Buck unless he was hurt. He worked to earn her affection. He worked to earn her approval.
Abby— Buck worked to make her like him. She was older (not that she was mom age, but this is a boy who doesn’t really know healthy relationships with people older than him). She cancelled on him a lot, making her kinda absent. She then literally abandoned him.
Ali— Didn’t like seeing him get hurt, to the point where she also left him. With her brown hair she looks similar to JLH (random due to casting, but still). Very touchy feely in the way Margaret (in a motherly way) wasn’t. Coerced Buck into choices like a mother would. There’s not much about Ali, she wasn’t around for long.
Taylor— Absent a lot both physically and emotionally. Keeping secrets, like Buck could probably feel his family was even if he couldn’t tie it to Daniel at the time. Open with her wants. Driven and loud, against Margaret’s quiet and contained. Kissed Buck after he was nearly killed, like his mom only caring when he got hurt.
I can’t think of more stuff. I know there is.
The point being, Buck has always been with people who feed into his mommy issues.
Even with Natalia, he’s impressing her for her affection.
Either the writers were doing it on purpose, or it was just a crazy coincidence.
——————
Now, here’s the buddie part of this because I may not think the writers are going to take it there, but…
Eddie doesn’t feed into any of it, in a good way. He’s attentive to his own son, and to Buck. He trusts Buck. He worries about Buck’s safety, yes, but not because he can’t take seeing Buck get hurt but because he just doesn’t want to see Buck hurt. The difference being how Buck’s mom couldn’t see a kid in a hospital because of how it impacted her and how Ali left because of Buck’s impact on her. Eddie doesn’t want Buck hurt because of how it impacts Buck, which in turn could impact Eddie, but he’s not thinking of himself. You get me? Eddie comes when Buck calls. Eddie comes when Buck doesn’t call. He doesn’t have to work to make Eddie like him. No climbing trees for him.
This makes Eddie more like Maddie. Someone who Buck loves and loves Buck in return, no questions asked.
