I've figured out how 6.09 "Warning Signs" is going to be THE Buddie episode we've been waiting for -
literally the opening of "I Found" by Amber Run has the line - I'll use you as a warning sign - it's been used on the show already in 2.07 "Haunted" in the scene when Buck writes the goodbye letter to Abby and finally moves out of her apartment - but if you listen to the entire song, it literally screams Buddie -
And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be Right in front of me... Talk some sense to me
And I'll use you as a makeshift gauge Of how much to give and how much to take I'll use you as a warning sign -
they just need another opportunity to use the song again with Buddie this time around and hey maybe the title was inspired by it!
didn't expect the cute sea monsters animated film to go so hard for "imperialism sustains itself through violence, exploitation, and monopolistic revisionist history" so that was a nice surprise
PRIDE MONTH CELEBRATION WEEK | day 5: Ship
I am, you know… What? Yours
The more I think about it, Buck making not one but two jokes about jerking off when talking to Hen about becoming a sperm donor? The more it becomes one of the most casually heartbreaking Buck scenes we've ever witnessed.
The way Buck will use his body to deflect from the vast well of grief and pain that he cannot bear to feel. (And a clever writing choice to have Hen be drunk and also navigating her own crisis, because I bet a sober Hen would have clocked what was going on.)
That he didn't even allow himself to contemplate the ramifications — beyond jerking off in a cup — of giving away a part of himself. Because that's all he is, right? Just DNA, just body parts, just a body. Best he can hope is for his parts to be useful. He can be good at his job and he can take care of Chris if Eddie dies and he can use his body to help an old friend have a family, something Buck's heart desperately wants, but doesn't believe he'll ever get to have.
But he can't think about any of that. So it's just dick jokes. Fucking brutal, 911.
Shouldn’t it be, when you’re at your worst, they’re at their worst, you have every reason to give up, and you still decide you want to try again.
It's about the posters. It's about pouring the two coffees into one cup. It's about the two bottles of champagne shared between the three of them. It's about comfort after an injury. It's about who you bring home. It's about who you let around your niece. It's about trying. It's about who you trust at your worst, with your worst. It's about growing and becoming better. It's about accountability. It's about learning you deserve to be better. It's about the people who will hold you. It's about love. It's about triangles being the strongest shape.
Being scared of horses is the weirdest thing and is often considered irrational. And maybe it is.
But I live in Scotland.
And I have a special interest in mythology.
Do you have any idea how many myths there are of Scottish murderous or supernatural horses???
Like by the Gods.
There are sooo many,
Black Bull head cannons
Part 2
-It’s cannon that the first time Luck cries in the anime (and manga) was during the elf incident, in front of Magna. This leads to Luck opening up to Magna more, even crying in front of him again.
-Luck’s biggest fear is failure and Magna tries his best to help him deal with this fear.
-Finral doesn’t like having someone pin or tie his hand up (both in a sexual and nonsexual sense) as it makes him feel helpless as without his hands he can’t concentrate his portals.
-Yami is lactose intolerant.
-Vanessa is a heavy drinker but she does it because she can, because she’s now finally in control of our own life.
-Noelle and Kahono have/had a romantic relationship.
-Noelle is either Poly or Demisexual.
-Finral in the manga can open portals inside people, he can do it in the anime (not cannon) but doesn’t as he doesn’t like having that much power and doesn’t want to hurt someone. Yami knows about this but Finral made him promise to never ask him or let him use that ability.
-Luck and Magna also have a thing most likely queerplatonic, everyone knows there’s something there but don’t wanna push it.
-Grey and Gauche talk about being homeless and what they had to do to survive.
-Finral joins in on this little support group and they all end up bonding.
-Grey has a social anxiety disorder
-Asta and Yuno don’t like admitting they are anything more than rivals and it’s very amazing and frustrating.
-Gauche and Finral are fairly protect of each other when it comes to their bio family, as they were both disowned and are aware of their parents shitty behaviour.
-Luck hates taking medicine as it makes him feel off, Magna, Finral and Yami are the only ones who can get him to take any meds he’s given.
-Yami is really protective of his squad mates and also really possessive.
-Magna dyes his hair a lot and Luck likes how it changes colour all the time.
Mate me to. I was happy stimming at his hops but also really wanted to help him feel better.
The autism in Jamie Tartt in todays episode was showing!
The stimming when he was upset. The flapping his hands. Not knowing how he’s feeling or why. The chewing on his hoodie strings. The need for comfort from people he trusts. All of it.
It’s just very clear this episode. And I kinda love it. It just furthers my head cannon.
