a single typo literally has the explosive power of a nuclear bomb like i just read back possibly the most beautiful scene ive ever created feeling so proud of myself ready to start thinking about the nobel prize in literature etc. etc. and then suddenly
“It’s oaky,” he whispered.
it’s oaky. what is this. a wine tasting
WE GOT RENEWED
cant believe next episode is gonna be hen hostage situation (literal, knife) and eddie hostage situation (metaphorical, parents)
"So, Eddie pays the tab, we both run out to the parking lot, and there's a boot on my front tire". Thanks for including the detail that Eddie paid for their food or drinks. Oh this was a date. Wish we could've seen it. "We're not gonna make the game". That was the Lakers' game by the way. A romantic gift from Buck's ex-boyfriend for their 6 months anniversary. They're crazy for this.
feeling completely normal about this btw (lying)
the damage control theory is incredibly funny to me because like. teasing buddie and whoring out ryan and oliver with no plans to make buddie canon is like trying to put out fire with gasoline and fireworks.
God when you think your day can't get any fucking worse after the baker fucks up the gender reveal cake and then your wife who just got almost serial killed is on the phone while you contract deadly deadly virus in scary lab FUCK
"8×17 is about water poisoning in L.A", "8×17 is about Eddie choosing the juice" what if it's about BOTH
"i think this rides over" more than just the helicopter ride thats for sure
if the 118 is going into season 9 without a captain anyway i think they should let every character be captain for one episode. it could be so great. the return of nightmare captain han. ravi spending the entire episode terrified because he feels in no way qualified only to end up having a clipboard buck-esque ego trip at the very end. buck tries his best but every time he doesn't get to run headfirst into a fire he stands there looking like a dog left out in the rain like :( i cant believe all my friends are in mortal danger rn and I DONT GET TO JOIN :(((( eddie's actually kind of good at it but buck keeps getting so flustered by eddie ordering him around for Reasons He Cant Explain that he kind of forgets to do his job and then he gets so upset about not supporting eddie or whatever they have to call it quits. at the end hen is like well. i know i turned it down initially but i dont think theres anyone the department could possibly bring in with enough experience both as a firefighter and cultivator of our beautiful perfect codependent family dynamic so i will do the noble thing and step up (the entire thing was a scheme to make her realise this). btw bobby's alive for all of this he actually escaped the government lab in episode 1 but he's too busy sipping shirley temples on the beach with athena to get involved in any of it
i'm trying not to be Mean but also i don't care i don't CAAAAARE anymore like. why is eddie returning to LA solely for buck. why is this the narrative people are going with. WHY EXACTLY is eddiebobby being downplayed as like, nothing more than a professional relationship. as if to eddie losing bobby would be like losing an acquaintance and he's more there for buck than anything else. why is this a thing. that i am seeing. like, eddiebobby has been one of THEEEE 118 relationships. they understand each other. bobby's always been there as a steady hand for eddie. eddie LOVES AND RESPECTS HIM a great deal. he has his OWN feelings about bobby that aren't related to buck’s relationship with bobby. like, why is it EDDIE being there for buck. when it should be them being there for EACH OTHER. all of the 118 btw. because they each have their own relationship with bobby. like, yes buck and bobby have a father-son relationship that is super important. and this is going to KILL buck. and yeah, i do think eddie is very conscious of that. and he WILL be there. but can we stop framing this as if his sole purpose is to be there for buck. he's allowed his own grief too. they all are. THEY'RE A FAMILY!!!!!!
