Things weren’t as rosy as they once were. Not that things were ever very rosy in their disastrous and sad little lives. The apocalypse shook things up a bit, but the fallout had taken away pretty much every shred of light in Eddie’s life. If it wasn’t nightmares and phantom bats gnawing at his flesh. It was the dirty stares and whispers of murderer forcing him into states of disassociation just so he could exist in public. As for Corroded Coffin, fuck. Eddie hadn’t thought about his dwindling band in months. He barely played anymore, and his voice had rusted to shit from not being stretched in so long. It was his fault, the band. Eddie let them sink. Not on purpose, never. Music was his life, as cliche as it sounded. But as it stood in the winter of 86. He still wasn’t ready to get back up on stage, Not in Hawkin’s, at least. And he owed people some explanations.

“I’m leaving town.” The bluntness in his tone made him flinch. He didn’t mean for it to come out as it did. “Sorry, man. I’ve been trying to figure out how to put it for days. But I guess there’s no gentle way about it, huh?” He fidgeted in his van seat, anxious about his best friend’s reaction. “M’going with Steve. Uhh...actually, it was his idea.” A small smile emerged when he spoke of his boyfriend. It disappeared quickly, his gaze dropping. “Some dudes kicked the shit outta me a few weeks ago, and he, Steve, that is, didn’t take it well. I know I shoulda told you, Garebear. But you’re just as unhinged as Steve is, and I don’t want anyone getting fucked up for me, okay? So...if you could not be mad at me. That’d be real sexy of you.”

okay well now we need your intellectual ranking of buck’s looks over the seasons. a top 5. academic analysis included

OK YOU ASKED FOR IT *cracks knuckles*

so if we're doing an "intellectual ranking" we'll need categories right? i propose sorting buck's looks by:

hotness

softness

how much each specific scene makes me want to eat glass (because as hot or soft as he might be for me, personally, it truly comes down to context)

each rated out of five. and introducing a fourth bonus category called "is he wet y/n" (water/sweat/blood included!)

based on this infallible system i present to you: an intellectual ranking of buck’s looks over the seasons (my top five + honourable mentions)

5. texas buck (ls 2.03 hold the line)

i know we all talk about crossover eddie but can we discuss crossover buck? please? it is a known fact oliver stark looks good in orange/yellow and boy does he prove it here. the lafd bomber jacket is also a look. the 118 ATE in texas and cherry on top is buck’s confused puppy face when tk assumes he’s hitting on him.

hotness 5/5, softness 4/5, do i want to eat glass 2/5, is he wet y/n = 11

4. pilot buck (1.01 pilot)

when i say pilot buck i am talking about this specific scene. also the shirtless scene on the rooftop but mostly this scene. am i a lesbian? well, yeah, i’m pretty sure. am i barking directly at it? well, yeah, i’m pretty sure!

hotness 5/5, softness 4/5, do i want to eat glass 3/5, is he wet y/n = 12

3. gurney buck (4.06 jinx)

how oliver stark manages to look both sexy and endearing in a face mask is beyond me but here we are. the attraction in this look lies not only in the look itself but the idea of the look: buck, the tallest member of the 118 by quite a margin, laid out gazelle-limbs on the gurney. you can’t make this shit up. unless you’re the writer/director for jinx in which case i guess you did make this shit up. thank you for your service.

hotness 5/5, softness 5/5, do i want to eat glass 3/5, is he wet y/n = 13

2. "hey” buck (survivors 4.14)

this whole episode? a work of art. this specific scene? do i need to go on? no but i will: running through the hospital like heathcliff searching for kathy on the moors. the slow zoom on eddie (ana? quie literally moving out of the frame if i think about this too hard i become unhinged) then buck. the softness of the “hey”. the cosy jumper. the curls! THE CURLS! work of art etc. etc.

hotness 5/5, softness 5/5, do i want to eat glass 5/5, is he wet y/n = 15

and before we get to my #1, some honourable mentions:

sharknado buck (2.11 new beginnings)

is this ensemble groundbreaking? not really. do i prefer his hair messy and curly? yeah of course have you looked at my blog. does any of this even matter when he’s smiling so big and wide like this it breaks my heart open in two like i’ve cracked an egg???

balcony buck (5.04 home and away)

and a recent contender enters the ring! *hits bell* there is just something so erotic about staring at your best friend with a black eye you’re icing with an ice pack he probably made up for you while wearing your comfiest trackpants and hoodie and he tells you exactly what you need to hear because he knows you better than the back of his hand <3 once again context is everything but also i like to see my favourite boy a little squished. a little dented. all the better to love you my dear <3

fire marshal buck (3.04 triggers)

the shirt so snug over his biceps it’s almost ripping. the tie pin. the clipboard. oh yeah it’s all coming together.

backwards cap buck (4.06 jinx)

the frat boyism. the unparalleled dumbassery. no thoughts head empty. and like i know i KNOW the cap is simply a costume device to make him look younger with minimal effort but also if i close my eyes i do not see <3

bulletproof vest buck (2.01 under pressure / 4.14 survivors)

couldn’t find the gif for survivors but this is hot too. i know something else i’d like to see him strap on

AND FINALLY...

DRUMROLL...

1. “that’s what buck means to me” buck (4.05 buck begins)

(gif credit @mediagifs because i couldn’t find it in gif search and needed this specific moment)

where do i even start. the curls. the soot. the wry smile. the emotional turmoil of the episode ripping me open like i’m a can of tuna and it’s a can opener. objectively there is nothing special about this outfit it is literally just his turnout gear but there is a... how do you say... je ne sais quoi. yes he is my mentally unhealthy six foot two fictional best friend/boyfriend/son <3 keep walking <3

hotness 5/5, softness 5/5, do i want to eat glass 5/5,is he wet y/n = 15 + bonus 💦

thus concludes my academic analysis of buck’s best looks. please note these are subject to change at any given moment on any whim i please. also i now realise i said before s4 is not my favourite hair era yet most of these are s4 what can i say i’m untrustworthy <3

#answered #anon #thanks for fueling my derangement anon much obliged #buck #evan buckley #911 #911 on fox #best looks™

first, that ficlet damn near gave me a heart attack because i live in alaska and for some reason seeing references to it in media that isn't vampires (who would die they would DIE in the weeks when you peer outside and think, ah what a lovely 8pm i still have my whole evening ahead of me but the clock says 2am when you look at it and your whole sense of reality crumbles around you) or like weird living off the land crabfishing lumberjack male fantasy. and ice truckers i guess.

2. anyway SECOND, eddie would love alaska. they could stay for a month and he could drag richie up a mountain every goddamn day and there would still be another mountain to climb at the end of it. one of said mountains has stairs just right there for those who don’t want to scramble up a mountainside like a wild child. there will be bears, not of eddie’s preferred variety but still pretty cool. richie can’t ride a moose because they’re creatures of pure anger, probably because they have to haul a

3. head full of bone around all the time, but he can collect novelty moose poop from every gift shop they visit. there are ornaments. earrings. cocktail swizzlers. some truly wild bastard made a set of dice. these are all real things. so is the quote unquote world’s largest chocolate fall, a chocolate waterfall that is comprised of thousands of pounds of what i can only assume is decades old recycled chocolate because you are strongly advised by the gift shop that features it to NOT taste the

4. taste the chocolate. the embolism eddie would have is worth the visit all on its own. this was really supposed to be about the eternal sunshine of alaska summers, which i think is the best part for any tourist who doesn't live here to suffer through the reality of having a sun that does not cooperate with the regular schedules of man

I love this so much holy shit. This was about the sea otters ficlet, right!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it, though I have to admit my only exposure to Alaska IS the vampire movie and nature docs. I live far enough north in Scotland that during high summer you can still see sunlight on the horizon at 2am, and I went to Iceland once in July when the sun never set, but that was surreal enough for just a week so I can’t imagine how bad it messes with your perception of time over a longer period.

I love this because I love thinking about them going on holiday together, all the hijinks that ensue. How quickly they’d go unhinged from the lack of nighttime 👀 I’m so glad to hear Eddie would like Alaska... he’d get so Into buying outdoor gear

He’s like, “Of course we need a personal locator beacon, Rich, what if we don’t have one and we get lost and die? We’ll feel pretty stupid I bet”

Richie: “I can SEE the parking lot from here”

Eddie: “Aw :(“

Richie: “I know you’re desperate to live out all the survivalist fantasies instilled in that sexy little sea otter scout body of yours by 20 years of corporate team-building weekends on manicured ranches in upstate New York—”

Eddie: “maybe :(“

Richie: “Okay, so what if I channel my stage fight training and control my fall to sprain my ankle just enough to necessitate your emergency bandaging skills?”

Eddie: “I would like that, thank you”

Anyway, thank you for this. Richie definitely pretends he’s gonna stick his head under the rancid chocolate fountain for the bit. He also gets novelty moose poop earrings for Bev and she wears them to New York Fashion Week
