[gayofthefae]

Eddie never “comes over” anymore. He hasn’t in some time. On second thought, I don’t think they have much at in non-emergencies aside from after the Tsunami and when Maddie was smothering Buck. I mean there may have been some other times but that’s one other thing that just DISTINGUISHES them from any other friends on the show. It’s one thing to parallel them to couple but I find it much more pertinent how they are oriented as something not quite friends.

Buck and Eddie don’t “come over”. They’re just there. In 309, Eddie is always there and it’s a little surprise that Christopher is too. In 511, we cut back to Eddie at home and he’s eating dinner with Buck and Christopher (and by extension Taylor). In 518, it cuts to Buck helping Eddie patch his walls. In 601, it cuts to them all having dinner. In 613, it cuts to their little homework session AND LATER to Buck and his sous-chef Christopher.

They always explain away the presence of others. Eddie knocked on Bobby’s door in 511 and 518. Karen came to Chimney when she thought Hen was cheating. In 613, Bobby and Athena came through the Buckley-Han’s door. They always show us, even if we could have gathered from Chimney inviting them why Athena and Bobby were there - or even if he hadn’t invited them onscreen, the conversation would have provided context. But they chose to show us because they are entering someone else’s home, space, and bubble.

That isn’t the case with Buck, Eddie, and Chris. Nobody needs to know how they got there. Who cares if they came in the door or climbed in through the window? They are treated as an established presence in each other’s homes. It doesn’t cut to a scene in which one of them comes over. (partially, I think, because the other consistency with all those other scenes was that those friends came over for some greater plot reason so their presence and appearance needed to be emphasized. No need to emphasize when they’re just there because they want to be). It just cuts to them. They’re just there.

No one asks questions. That’s exactly why they do it. Because they’ve established them in such a way that they know no one would be confused as to how or why they all got together is here. They’ve made it as casual as all other groups who live together in the way they just cut straight to a character already with their go-to person to talk to about any given situation they need to talk about. Like emulating the forced proximity of living together and the casualness of how conversations arise that way by establishing that they were already together before this conversation topic was brought up.

They establish that they were already there before they were talking about this plot pertinent thing. They make it clear by not starting with one of them appearing at their door that they enjoy each other’s company for no plot related reason at all. They may have been hanging out for hours before this. Eddie did not come over to talk to Buck about this (whatever it is). Maybe he wanted to, but their “visits” never have a purpose. It’s just to enjoy each other’s company as frequently as possible.

Even the ending cooking scene cuts to Chris already there with Buck. They decided that it wasn’t pertinent information to know where Eddie was/why he wasn’t there like it would be with, say, Jee-Yun, historically. Maybe Eddie dropped him off to spend vague, non-purposed time with Buck. (shared custody vibes: this is your Buck time). It even leaves the idea open that Eddie could have been there then left with Buck promising to take him home later. That’s what it is here. It doesn’t even feel like a “play-date” of any kind. This one on one stuff feels like shared custody between two households. 

He didn’t go over because they planned to cook together. That was just his Buck time. They didn’t come over because they planned for Buck to help Christopher cheat, maybe for Buck to help Christopher with his homework but his miraculous skill doesn’t lend itself to explanations very well and even Eddie shut down the idea. That was just their family time.

tldr: All the friends in the show have plot purposes and objectives in going to each other’s homes and when they go to one another’s homes, the scene starts with a knock at the door. Buddie, however, are paralleled to the other couples or families that live together by rarely doing this. Instead, it cuts to them, establishing that they were already there just to be there before any plot pertinent thing came up. They frame their presence in each other’s homes as a natural base state from which to talk about or do plot pertinent things rather than somewhere you go when/for something plot pertinent to happen. They shoot them in a way that is almost an attempt to convince the audience they live together by showing them as established presences in one another’s homes - part of one another’s “bubble”s (aka families).

Alright so, rewatching 609 and I am at the scene where Buck gets added to Hen and Chimney’s call and as about to share the news about the baby (before they add Eddie) and just, the shot they start him in is so.. interesting to me. We see him at his kitchen counter, messing around with a bunch of spices (ingredients if you will) and they’re all laid out in front of him.. literally seconds before he is about to share the big news.

The reason this stuck out to me is because, in 613, the end scene with Buck and Chris, we have them making cookies (for Chris’ class I mean c’mon!) and Buck is telling Chris about how he likes to measure out his ingredients because it helps him feel like a real chef, and then we have Chris saying “that makes me your sous chef!” and..

There is something to do with the Ingredients of it all. Because in the scene from 609, they’re just all in front of him. He doesn’t have anything measured out at all, he’s just sort of looking at them. But then in 613, he has everything measured out and ready to go (based from the recipe book) and then Chris tells him that the measurements are in metric and Buck suggests they just try and find a new recipe to use instead. (the whole ‘not following by the book/going the traditional way and instead finding the way that works best for us’ of it all)...

hm.

First 911 6x13 watch is done, I swear these two are at the very least sleeping together.

Like omg, the looks, the smiles, the exasperated "Buck.." When Buck talks about former women, he slept with.

I love partners in crime buddie! It's so awesome and amusing!

I loved the captains being indulgent of Buck and the gentle prodding.

And Eddie, knowing the exact time Buck was dead, I can't get past that.

And can we talk about the fact that Buck has a couch and the Diaz boys are still sitting with him in the kitchen?!

Or how about the fact that Hen and Karen came to tell Denny's father that they have to set ground rules for him to see his son, and right after that, we get Buck with Christopher alone in the kitchen.

Denny, yelling my dad could be dead and you don't even care, straight out threw me to you could be dead next year.

There were a lot of elements in the Denny storyline that we had with Eddie and Christopher.

Also, Christopher and Buck, Christopher insisting on seeing Buck in the hospital in 6x11 and Carla taking him, like Toni talking sense into Henren, then taking him in to see his father.

The stories are different but similar.

But I loved the Denny storyline and also loved Denny's scene with Chimney. It's obvious that for Denny, Chimney is the fun beloved uncle. He seems like a partner in crime if Denny warns him not to get in yet because it's not safe, lol.

Later, we have, in comparison, Buck's scenes with Christopher, not uncle, but dad.

Also, can we talk about Buck doing math and Eddie researching this phenomenon? Pulling a full Buck, next to Buck, in Buck's kitchen.

I love it!! I want more!!! 😍😍

It would be so fucking amazing if Christopher was the one in danger in the finale!!

Not the best way to word that but hear me out, it is his turn because both Eddie and Buck have been in danger for the last seasons, but Chris? Not since the Tsunami, and there we only had a glimpse of Eddie and the prospect of losing his son, but we did get a very concerned Buck.

Now? Both will be there, a 100% and Chris is going on that trip, right? And the fucking thing is going to collapse putting several people in danger... do you see me??

We would get worried!buddie while they're looking for their son!!!!

[blue-cheeseinmyoffwhites]

Soooo they actually meant Eddie and Buck but that would’ve been too obvious so they put in Eddie & Chris even though

1. No other families shown had the kids in the name

2. Buck is in the Eddie/Chris section more than Chris

But I’m just crazy right?

Anyways I NEED THIS VERSION OF THE BREAKDOWN DESPERATELY

Fire Captain Buck Meta - 413 & 601

In 413, a few minutes before the shooting Buck and Eddie rolled up to Charlie’s apartment in Bobby’s Captain SUV. The 133 was already on the scene. As Buck and Eddie approached the building, Captain Mehta jokingly asked Buck if he had been promoted. Buck hurriedly replied that it was the only vehicle available.

What happened happened and then we got a string of events that showed that even though Buck had not been promoted to Fire Captain at a firehouse, he absolutely had been promoted symbolically to Fire Captain in Eddie’s life. We got Buck hulking Eddie off the pavement and into the fire engine. We got Buck taking care of Chris when Eddie couldn’t. Eddie’s will reveal in the event of a deadly event. The tough love about Eddie needing to break up with Ana after his panic attacks. Buck trying to extinguish Eddie’s emotional fire when he was worried about Chris’ Christmas nightmares and being a bad father. Buck asked Eddie to stop pretending when he was clearly tired and running on empty because of all the trauma and lack of distractions to stave off the pain. Buck crossed town in a mad dash to answer Chris when he called. Buck broke down Eddie’s door when he struggled to open it himself. He soothed Chris’ fears for Eddie during that time as much as he could even though he himself was afraid for his friend and partner. Buck held space for Eddie and his deepest fears when he was in tears and grieving the loss of his fellow soldiers. He helped Eddie to see that he needed to do more than just attend therapy; he needed to participate and let therapy be a part of his healing fr. He took Chris to school and helped Chris with his homework and cleared the table after. He sat quietly and listened to Eddie fears about the randomness of their vocation. Then he helped Eddie to restore his lost sense of purpose. Evan Buckley has spent the last season (longer really) taking his place at Eddie’s side in a huge way. Fire (Co-)Captain. Managing the scene while Eddie’s old patterns burn away. Mitigating the fallout as much as possible. Saving what matters when some things that are on fire just have to burn. 

Now Buck wants to be considered for Interim Captain at the 118 while Bobby is on his honeymoon. But it’s not about that really. If the subtext of the 601 Buddipher dinner conversation and the subtext of 413 through season 5 have anything to say about it, s6 Fire Captain Buck is about Buck’s own traumas and struggles. About his sense of self and his worth. Maybe even about showing up for himself and going as hard for himself as he does for others. Eddie’s hurdle was similar. He put everything into Chris and forgot to take care of himself. Now Buck has to learn a similar lesson. How to not center his entire sense of himself inside other people’s thoughts, opinion’s and needs, no matter who those people are. That’s why Bobby told Buck that he had to figure out for himself if he’s at peace or not and decide to take care of himself. 

All of this for Buck is also about the way Eddie and Chris factor into his life. “What are you offering?” was Eddie’s question to him at dinner...what does Buck actively want FOR HIMSELF, not for others. He’s setting a whole new direction for himself - self improvement for his own sake. He’s not meant to spend his life as an Interim Captain at someone else’s firehouse. 

Something @stagefoureddiediaz said in a recent post about Buck and the temporary nature of the Interim Captain position made me think...At work Buck can be a Captain someday, equal to Nash and Mehta. In his personal life he can pinch hit for loved ones but beyond that...MORE than that he needs to show up as his full beautiful self and CHOOSE to stand at Eddie’s side officially and completely and with eyes wide open as to what he has to offer his beloved Buckley-Diaz Family and why HE wants to be there with them FOR HIMSELF. I know we talk a lot in the fandom about Eddie needing to choose and Buck needing to be chosen. Ultimately I think that’s still very true but Buck needs to know WHO he’s asking someone to choose which requires knowing himself better and making peace with who he is.

Because Buck’s life is so intertwined with Eddie and Chris his personal work is necessarily going to involve the Diazes. Just like Eddie’s personal work necessarily involved (and still involves) Buck. This season is gonna make me cry tears of EVERY kind, I just know it!

[gayofthefae]

And if I said that Buck's arc was about fatherhood. What then. If I said Buck has been planted as loving and being good with children from the first episode and was emphasized as being very affected by his childhood and that was because it was always supposed to be about Christopher...what then?

If I said that that's why the episode about love focused more for him on Carmen and Christopher?

If I said that's why the donor storyline exists, so he can go through giving that baby away like he did to feel the hole before he can see where he can fully commit to filling with what he already has?

IF I SAID THAT BUCK'S ARC HAD ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT FATHERHOOD?

(if I said I just saw a Buck, Eddie, and Chris edit to Piece by Piece by Kelly Clarkson)
