#but in terms of canon i think letting buck have a casual fling with a hot guy he's crushing on

If I'm being honest, I actually think I would prefer to see Tommy NOT become the boyfriend. I really like the idea of the two of them dating a bit, and Tommy helping Buck to explore a little, but I think it would be much more interesting if Buck doesn't immediately jump into a more serious relationship with him. Allowing Buck to explore more casually as he starts to figure himself out just feels a little more meaningful here. He's always so quick to jump into relationships. I'd rather see him really take his time and let himself have some fun. And absolutely, Tommy can be a major part of that. But so much of the speculation around them feels like it frames him as the boyfriend, but I don't know that that's what Buck needs from him, to be honest.

#i'm a hypocrite i'm currently writing a boyfriend!tommy fic #and i know everyone's just having some fun with the spec and boyfriend!tommy could also be a lot of fun #but in terms of canon i think letting buck have a casual fling with a hot guy he's crushing on #(not like buck 1.0 levels but just a casual fling with someone he trusts) #would be a little more interesting than putting him immediately into a relationship #especially because i think a major part of his hamster wheel was always rushing into serious relationships before he was actually ready #and just because this one's with a man doesn't mean it would be good for him to continue that pattern #anyway #ignore me #911 spoilers #bucktommy #911 speculation
