no but buck is clearly very bambi on ice about this which is completely understandable because it's new and exhilarating but also a bit scary right and he doesn't want to fuck it up so he just keeps saying words truly any words no filter whatsoever and what does tommy do? he stays patient and kind and lets buck talk but reassures him and then segways the conversation into something more comfortable by shamelessly flirt with buck and it clearly works too
-Buck: So maybe we both had daddy issues
-Tommy: I don't
-Buck: Which I think I do..
-Tommy: God I hope so!
TOMMY PLEASEEE!!??!?
not “oh my god it’s just a tv show” as in you are not allowed to find genuine joy and form a true connection to fiction, but “oh my god it’s just a tv show” as in, if it legitimately stresses you out and impacts your mood when things don’t happen exactly the way you want them to, and it causes you to lash out at other - real - people, maybe you need to take a massive step back.
What if I started making buddie fic trading cards to show some extra love and support to writers during the hiatus?
Assuming I have the time and energy while also running 911hiatus 😅
Separate note: CARLITOS WHAT ARE YOU DOING
The man is gonna give me a heart attack because WILLIAMS??? I know it’s just a rumor but he’s really playing with fire rn (it’s Daniel level of silly season but like,,, people actually want him he just turns them down because he wants a seat at a top team as opposed to Danny doing the same… but nobody going after him 💀)
Sauber/Audi laid it on the table but noooo el a fuerza quiere top 3 (or 4 ídek atp)
Silly season is in full swing let’s see how this game of musical chairs ends
and everything suggests that im gonna kms
My sister says there are better ways to get someone's attention-
RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE (2023) dir. Matthew Lopez
kyle soller’s storyline in bodies is hella gay and i am HERE for it
I love you. I love you more. I think that's up for debate.
what do you think is the sweetest and most well written part of Buck and Tommy's relationship? When they kissed in the first episode they had any kind of meaningful interaction or when Tommy ditched Buck on the curb after their first date and Buck somehow ended up feeling like the asshole about it. If that's a sweet and well written relationship Eddie and Marisol are When Harry Met Sally.
Oh no! They kissed after one episode! How could I forget the only way to write a good on screen romance is to spend at least half a season having them dance around their feelings with enough space for the holy ghost?
And yeah tommy left buck (a grown man in his 30s btw) outside the restaurant, because rather than just not mention they were on a date, buck made up a very weird and uncomfortable lie. bffr that's a "yeah sorry, I just got a text my grandma died," level red flag. I'd have clocked out at the ally comment, and tommy managed to turn that around into flirting!
But anyway thanks for the opportunity to list some sweet bucktommy details so far:
just buck's entire face when he talks to/about tommy, that man is smitten! ((x) if you need visual proof). he has the world's biggest crush on his boyfriend and i want him to be insufferable about it!
tommy's little "so that was okay?" after their kiss kills me every time, it's gentle but also confident and forward (which i think compliments buck's personality very well)
I mean tommy felt so bad about being the cause of problems between buck and eddie, he went to buck's house in person to apologise.
speaking of gentle. Evan. I need, need someone to pick tim minear's brain about the decision to have tommy consistently call him evan, the implications are driving me insane.
the way their relationship is tied up with, imo, one of the most interesting coming out arcs i've seen on tv in years. bi buck is very special to me and like it or not tommy is a part of that.
I love the detail of buck getting tommy's order wrong, they could've easily gone the "omg, you got my order right the first time, we're meant to be!" route, but imo there's something refreshing about showing love as this thing you have to work to build vs something that magically happens to you.
and the invisible string/full circle symbolism potential is insane. The fact chimney saved tommy's life, the parallel of tommy needing to leave the 118 to find himself which in turn left a spot in the exact place buck needed to do the same. The way buck is the reason that chimney meets maddie and then years later chim (potentially) returns the favour. They've stumbled into a writing goldmine here and i think they'd be fools to waste it.
look i'll readily admit i've no clue where they might be taking bucktommy, tbh i don't think tim minear knows, but they've sure as hell crammed a lot of potential into those 2 + a bit episodes. That's what people are responding to.
