The dumbest thing about so much of the hate for bucktaylor after the finale is that it is literally a trope people love in fanfic with mlm ships. Character A is in a dangerous situation, character B is really worried and realises ‘oh shit I can’t lose them without acting on feelings I have’ (even if they have done nothing to suggest they have those feelings beforehand, which I don’t think is necessarily the case with Taylor) and kisses them, character B is like ‘oh wow they share my feelings?’ and sometimes even the ‘I can’t do this unless you’re just as serious about it as I am’ type conversation, then they start dating...... Just admit your problem is that it wasn’t Buddie 🙄

YES exactly!! if buck and eddie had gotten together during the finale i guarantee you no one would be talking about one of them taking advantage of the other's trauma. there are *so* many buddie fics about exactly this (even ones that came after 4.14 as well) and that's fine?? the trope slaps most of the time

i've said before that i don't love how buck and taylor got together in the finale and i still mean it bc of a lot of things about the way it was set up (or not imo), but weirdly i don't feel like i have to make taylor out to be a manipulative and horrible person to justify my dislike of how things went down? a lot of people have really just lost the plot and it's so,,,,,,yikes

like idk people are just really content with ignoring the fact that taylor was also going through a trauma. she learned that the lafd was being targeted (and specifically that buck's best friend had been shot - in front of him no less - and that buck had come close to being shot as well) and then had to watch as buck threw himself in the line of danger with absolutely no regard for himself. like she wasn't some master manipulator who was just waiting for buck to be vulnerable to sink her claws in i s2g yall 😭

I was tagged by @sleepycarabou and I s2g kara I think this is the first time I’ve made a legit post so tyvm

Rules: answer the 10 questions, write your own 10 questions and tag 10 people

1. What are a few qualities that you admire about yourself?

I like to think that I’m very resilient, I’ve always been able to tackle problems when they appear and I’ve always picked myself up off the ground afterward. I also don’t really let things get to me, no matter how big or small the issue is I am usually able to keep a level head.

2. Do you think that your personality has changed since childhood? If not, can you identify a reason why?

It’s totally changed since childhood! I used to be a really quiet child, I had a hard time making friends and I was always super shy. Now I’m considered the resident crackhead of the gc I’m in and, while I still have some moments where I’m shy, they are few and far between and I’ve become a lot more social/outgoing. It’s really refreshing tbh, I just had to realize that it wasn’t worth trying to be someone I’m not and that I would eventually find people who I could vibe with, no matter how crazy I seem. And I had to learn how to not give a fuck if someone disliked me for a petty reason. Once you learn how to do that you start having a lot more fun in life.

3. Do you believe in karma? Why or why not?

You don’t know how badly I want to believe in karma but I don’t think I do. I’ve always said what goes around comes around and all that jazz but I don’t really believe in any higher powers (karma included) and I’m after seeing bad things happen to good people (and vice versa) and it just doesn’t seem like karma is a thing that exists.

4. What are you most grateful for?

This sounds cheesy but literally everything that has happened to me in the past. Like a lot of it fucking sucked and I wished I didn’t have to go through some of the things I went through but tbh it made me the person I am today. And I like to think that if I didn’t go through all this then I wouldn’t have met the friends that I have now. Also, who’s to say that I’d be better off if I didn’t have the same experiences or all that jazz

5. Do you have a milestone you’re working toward in your life right now? If so, what is it?

Ok, this is going to make me sound hella basic but it’s been my dream to travel the world. I want to visit every country, go to all the famous landmarks, take photos, etc and just experience life. In 2018 I (finally) got my passport and traveled to Florida and started (what will inevitably be a very long) journey to seeing everything the world has to offer. It’s super expensive though and I need to save up some serious cash to do this (and rn I’m only making min wage) so my dream is being put on the back burner. I’m currently going back to school in the fall in hopes of creating some contacts to land me a decent paying job so that I can literally fly anywhere I want, anytime I want.

6. What is the strangest place you’ve ever been/traveled to?

I’m very boring and have literally only traveled to Newfoundland (for university) and Florida (for Disney World). Both are strange in their own way, but I guess if you look at it at face value, Florida is more strange.

7. What decade do you think you belong in the most?

The one I was born into/the one I grew up in. aka 90′s/00′s. I’m too brash/outspoken to fit into any other previous decade (because let’s face it, @sleepycarabou @bigpokico can you really see me as some housewife and being ladylike???)

8. What’s one thing that could happen today to make it a really great day?

It depends on the day tbh. Some days will be great if I see a cute dog, others are great if I see some flowers I like, and some won’t be great unless I get some time to relax and unwind alone with reading/anime/video games.

9. What is your most used word?

Fuck, or some other iteration of it. It’s very versatile and I appreciate that about it.

10. What is the worst thing ever? (left up to interpretation)

It depends ig. Like you have your obvious answers like hunger, disease, racism, etc. But a lot of things are the worst thing ever. Like stubbing your toe or an unsupportive friend/parent or losing something important. It’s all relative and it’s all valid

:::

My questions

1. If you could change anything about yourself, what would you change? Why would you change it?

2. If you woke up tomorrow with $1,000,000,000, what would you do with it?

3. If you were given the ability to kill one person without any repercussions, would you do it? If so, who would you kill?

4. What was your biggest dream as a child? Has it changed since then?

5. What did you want to be when you were growing up? Have you changed your mind and decided on something else now that you’ve gotten older?

6. Do you have anything you regret doing/not doing?

7. What’s something that you recently started reading/watching and want other people to know about

8. If you could choose your ideal life, what would it look like?

9. What’s your favourite colour. Why is it your favourite?

10. What's your favourite time of day and why?

Episode #6: “If Drew goes home tonight, Dennis and I are literal strategic masterminds” -Eric

I guess stephen didn't have an idol woops.

So like Koh Sai all over again, I get 1 vote away from being eliminated. But at least now I'm in an alliance with everyone on Moriquende. I'm the total package xD

LOL why did roxy tell me she voted me literally I could have gone on a campaign against Sammy I thought he was a snake now I can be calm and not ruin my game

I’ve literally never disliked being on a tribe more. If i don’t get first merge boot it will be both a miracle and a curse

This is the stalest merge tribe. We’re all old and crusty like the last wheat thin in the box your mom has been trying to get you to finish all summer. Everyone’s a community person except Dylan and Ford and Zach. Luckily my allies seem keen to get Roxy out so hopefully we can make that happen bc otherwise I’m gonna pull my hair out.

Welp, guess I'm gonna have to vote out JG. He's gonna give me a hard time because of """loyalty""" and ""not being a snake"" as if he's ever followed those things before. King, honestly.

I'm really nervous for this incoming tribal council. I came into merge almost going home. I think i have decently strong bonds with the people on NuMoriquende, but I'm not sure about the intentions and thoughts of members of nuPerian. I am annoyed Bodhi struck out because he was a potential new ally. I'm gonna try and make a new alliance with someone on nuPerian to try and keep me safe this tribal.

okay so not the best start to merge.. for the challenge i started guessing and it was awful the challenge destroyed me lmao. Butttt I told Olivia that when she got back to message me and if I didn’t respond just put abstain, BUT SHE DIDNT MESSAGE ME LMAOOOO SHE HAD NO FAITH IN ME SHE PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY. I’m dead. Okay and part two of merge drew told me roxy told him that me and Eric were super tight. WTF MY OWN WIFE JUST THREW ME UNDER THE BUSSSSSS. ME AND ROXY ARE GOING TO TUSSLE.

IM CALLING IT NOW JAY OR DREW IS GETTING ME OUT OF THIS GAME (okay plz let this prediction be right so it’ll make this confession good)

Either I'm going home tonight or there really isn't a plan at 7pm. The former seems more likely.

God I really need to confess more. This game just hasn’t been interesting...until now. I had no intention of voting JG until tonight when it was either get a shit ton of people to flip on to roxy and risk failing and then I go home or go with someone who’s already got people on his side and just make sure it isn’t me. I really trust Drew and Jay and I’m excited to see where that alliance goes.

This vote is uhhhh suddenly the craziest shit ever. JG wanted Zach, Sammy flipped the vote onto JG. Then JG comes to me and says he has a super idol. So obviously I tell Drew, and now we're trying to figure out WHAT THE LIVING FUCK we're going to do with that.

IM. IM IN. IM IN AN ALLIANCE WITH ROXY, DENNIS, AND JG. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON. ZACH IS GOING TO GIVE ME HIS LEGACY ADVANTAGE IF HE GETS VOTED OUT. SO IM GOING TO TRY TO GET HIM VOTED OUT WITHOUT VOTING FOR HIM. IM GONNA PEE.

LLOLOLOLOLOLOL. Deadass crying laughing in my dorm right now (I laugh when i’m Nervous). I just told Jay about the legacy and that may have been the best or worst decision I’ve ever fucking made. God I need to learn impulse control. Will I have an ally for the rest of the game now or will Jay cut my throat and try to hide it so that she gets the advantage? Only time will fucking tell. This damn game I s2g

If Drew goes home tonight, Dennis and I are literal strategic masterminds and I completed all my ORG goals. If not and I end up going home, so be it. I said I wanted to play this game with guts, and I am now. I want to be proud of my attempt to play the game, whether i get eliminated now, or win the entire thing. That's my goal.

Okay I am so confused about this vote. It was supposed to be drew with 6 votes, but somehow jg and jay are upset about drew leaving and in the end there were only 4 votes. SO I CAN ONLY TRUST ROXY NOW WHAT IS EXTREMLY COOL BECAUSE I KNOW SHE IS LOYAL BUT ALSO ONLY ONE PERSON IS SCARY. BUT BETTER ONE THAN NONE AMIRIGHT?
