CHAPTER 7 is now up! It's the final chapter! I am so excited to have finished this story and so grateful to those that have read it and commented/left kudos. Hope you all enjoy the end. It's short as it's just a wrap up.

Really? 911: Nashville? Meh. Abc/Fox got rid of Station 19 and 911: Lone Star for that? yeah, no thanks. You treated both shows badly and you couldn't even be bothered to pick somewhere that is completely different than Texas. If I wanna watch a show set in Nashville, I will go rewatch the TV show Nashville. Y'all can keep your new spin-off.

No Ronen and no Rafa means I don't care.

And why does 911 need to crossover with that cruise ship show?

I’ve been seeing some frustration in the LS fandom lately, and I totally get it!

It’s upsetting how often Carlos is being written as a neglectful workaholic in every new Jonah fic. And honestly, I don’t blame the writers who write him this way - this is what the show gave us. They wanted to portray a distant Carlos, and if people interpreted that as neglect, well, they’re not wrong. And yes, he was grieving and trying to find his dad’s killer but it doesn’t mean he wasn’t neglecting and treating TK like shit. Both opinions are correct.

But what really gets under my skin even more is how TK is being portrayed in so many of these fics - like a housewife. It was already disappointing enough that the show made him quit his job for some made-up reason, but now these stories are doubling down and reducing him to nothing more than that. No passion, no fire, no spark. Just a soft, domestic placeholder for boring, emotional kicks. I don’t read Jonah or kid fics, and I don’t plan to ever - but the way Tarlos is being written lately as this sexless, lifeless pair with no real depth is starting to wear on me. They were never like that. That’s not who they are.

Honestly? Thank god there’s no season 6. And I say that as a huge, huge fan. I’m honestly relieved I won’t have to watch TK as a SAHD (seriously, what the hell was that?), I don’t need to see a forced family dynamic (no, Carlos did NOT want kids), and Owen living away from his son? Absolutely not.

Thank god we have 4 almost perfect seasons and AO3 to recover.

Thank god.
