Teehee 🤭❤️
There is a lot of discourse online about Eddie's sexuality. I fall in the camp of Eddie is heterosexual - although admittedly I've read more than my fair share of Buck/Eddie fanfiction. As a queer man, it is my sincere belief it is more meaningful and interesting that Eddie be straight and no, it's not because I think there's only a set number of queer characters allowed on this show or I'm championing a BuckTommy endgame (my endgame is Evan Buckley being happy regardless of who he is romantically involved with).
When I was younger, I was the only queer person in my all-male friend group. I spent most of my teens and my early-20's hiding my sexuality out of fear that my straight guy friends would turn their back on me. Currently, I've fallen out of touch with those guys but there are times where I wish I'd been braver and come out to them.
Evan Buckley coming out as bisexual was such a special moment for me and countless others. However, there is another pivotal moment that seems to get overshadowed. Eddie Diaz accepting Buck without question and assuring him that nothing would change about their friendship was such a powerful, revolutionary moment. It's a moment I wish I got years ago from the young men I called my best friends.
So, this is why I don't want Eddie Diaz to be queer. I know that's a weird sentiment to have coming from a queer person and I may be in the minority when it comes to this particular opinion. However, I stand by my words. I don't know what will happen in season 8 or the seasons that follow, I just hope they we continue seeing Eddie being an amazing, supportive ally and friend to Buck.
I get overwhelmingly happy for Lou. I’ve talked about this before but to go from doing one episode, to three, then going on to do other movies and tv shows, then being asked to come back five years later (!!!) for a few episodes. Then they add him to the last two episodes when they didn’t have to. Then they include him in the premiere, and are giving him so much to work with now.
I believe he talked about how much he enjoyed working on 911 years ago and how great the cast and crew was. And the way he talks about Tommy shows how much he truly loves that character. He’s doing literally everything he can to show how much Tommy loves and adores Buck the way he deserves. He’s getting to be there for more than just looks, more than muscle.
I’m just so happy for him 😭
Soooo cute

Oliver is constantly baited by buddies disguised as journalists, who then turn to the internet and bait other buddies for engagement. For years, they've taken what he says out of context or twisted his words to fit their narrative. A lot of you have seen it time and time again and others may have even been part of it once upon a time..
There’s always been an answer, a photo, an interaction, or a look that’s hinted at ‘Buddie canon’ only for it to not be the case. It’s gotten so bad that journalists are specifically targeting their mutuals online for ship adjacent questions for the actors to make them seem pro ship, similar to what’s happened recently.
They were doom-spiraling yesterday after Oliver mentioned Buck and Tommy’s relationship, threatening to harass actors, off themselves, or just quit the show altogether. And now look at them today, after more bait has been thrown their way. That’s all it’s about for them. There’s no point of any of it if Buddie doesn’t happen. It’s be all or end all when it comes to their ship and they’ll take what they can get however they can get it.
Don’t let them get under your skin or discourage you in any way. Oliver doesn’t hate Lou, Tommy, or his current storyline. He’s not involved in this one-sided ship war at all. Those people are at the end of their rope and clinging on for dear life.
Let them slip…
Happy New Year's Eve! Thank you for accompanying me and make my 2024 even better ❤️
“Just uh, Just watch where you step alright? Pumpkin likes to dart out infront of you.” Tommy warned as he unlocked his front door.
“And what IS pumpkin? You know I still havent been told what kinda animal you have.” Buck pouted and shoved his hands into his pockets.
“Baby I wanted it to be a surprise- besides he’s not er.. well a conventional pet..”
“Thomas. What do you have? Is it illegal?” Evan gasped
“No! No - it’s not like that- I have a permit to own him.”
“I swear to god if I walk in there and see a tiger-”
“Evan. Just relax.” Tommy rolled his eyes and opened the door, walking inside as Evan cautiously followed behind him.
“Pumpkin! Tch tch come here boy.” Tommy called out as he switched the lights on.
Buck heard the scurrying of paws, and a bell jingling on the creatures collar. Poking his head over Tommy’s shoulder he watched as it emerged from the kitchen.
It was..
just.. a possum?
“Oh.” Buck laughed and stood up straight, no longer feeling anxious about the situation.
“I found him in my garage a few years ago- just a tiny baby at the time- I waited and waited but the mother never came back- and by then he had imprinted on me and well..” Tommy sighed and Buck watched in amusement as the possum climbed up Tommy’s leg to be held.
“I just dont really tell people about him cause- well you know people think possums are dirty.” Tommy frowned and ruffled the animal’s fur.
“I do know that yes. But Possums actually groom themselves quite regularly- they also eat ticks- which is good because I hate ticks.” Evan reached over to gently stroke the possum.
“Can.. can i hold him?” He asked and looked up at his boyfriend.
“Of course.”
Tommy handed the possum over to Evan, who immediately clung onto him.
“So.. adorable.” Evan couldnt help but smile.
“Yeah- you are pretty cute.” Tommy hummed and kissed his cheek before walking towards the kitchen to start dinner
