Im Too Mad To Think Of Something To Say They Should Not Have Let Bobby Died

FRRRR, the fact that we got FUCKING TOMMY's reaction to Buck crying and we didn't get Eddie's to Bobby dying when Bobby was such an important person in his life is infuriating. Like was it really so hard to cut the five minutes of Tuberculosis fighting helicopters and the unnecessary reaction to his ex whom he has a very weird relationship with to fit a frame of Eddie just picking up the phone and crying?? 💀💀

this isn't dooming bc i don't for a minute believe that BT is actually endgame but the fact that tim is so insistent on bringing back bigoted white side characters while repeatedly sidelining or mishandling main characters of color is so deeply upsetting to me. are you telling me that they couldn't fit a single minute of eddie screentime in that ep? an episode where BOBBY FUCKING DIES?? it doesn't matter that it might not permanent because all of the other members of the 118 still got to feel that grief and sadness onscreen and eddie didn't. like...why are we acting like bobby isn't eddie's family as much as he is buck's? or is eddie just not important enough that bobby dying didn't even warrant a phone call?? jesus fucking christ

in the spirit of being a bitch about this (yeah I’m being a bitch about this try and stop me) I’m gonna say one thing that’s already been said and then I won’t speak on this again but Literally having a main -much more a main like Eddie fucking Diaz- miss this much of a story and this dramatic of a plot should be considered a federal crime like imagine if Buck or Hen or chim weren’t in this episode at all??? It would’ve felt so off??? And for good reason they’re MAIN characters that should be treated as such and yeah sure eddies my favourite SUE ME but this is the godamn objective truth and it’s unfair he’s been missing from two episodes (well more like one and three quarters because Buck cant stop blabbering about his boyfriend like he’s a war widow or smth) like get serious it’s been 8 seasons. Love the devastation though let’s keep it up 🫶🏻

the damage control theory is incredibly funny to me because like. teasing buddie and whoring out ryan and oliver with no plans to make buddie canon is like trying to put out fire with gasoline and fireworks.

it's me and my 911 mutuals against tim minear

I have so much to say about today's episode, but I can't get over the fact that Eddie loved ballroom dancing—until his parents ruined it for him. They turned it into something competitive, something he had to prove himself in, with trophies to win and a scholarship to earn, when all he ever wanted to do was just dance. And then, years later, when the priest told him to find his joy, the very first thing he did was dance freely, without all the pressure his parents had put on his shoulders

“You’re a nerd” I say as I look at you with heart eyes while you info dump to me

how I felt the moment Eddie said he'd need Buck's couch

Like okay yeah I might be in love with my bff BUT he was a RENTER like with are you talking about. Okay yes him not being in my life leaves a hole that is impossible to fill and I've been acting totally insane since he told me he was leaving AND he was silver star but uh, he's straight so ofc I can't be in love with him yk. And idk if I mentioned but he's a renter.

do you think buck lies awake at night trying hard and failing bad not to think about The Competition Conversation. like "he was a renter? WHY did i say that? A RENTER?????? whatever. Whatever. it's true anyway. he WAS a renter. and he IS straight. and i'm NOT in love with him. it's TRUE. it's fine. whatever!!!!! who cares. not me! 🙂 stupid tommy. what does he know? he just doesn't get our Bond. our NORMAL BOND. whatever. shut up and go to sleep buck. you have facetime breakfast with eddie in the morning! which is NOT because i'm in love with him. just to be clear!" and then he grabs his phone and googles "facetime every day sometimes multiple times normal reddit" and it takes him to r/datingadvice and r/longdistance and he throws his phone on the floor

911 sweetie you’re supposed to be a home cooked meal not tiny portions at a five star restaurant. Just because you’re on abc doesn’t mean the characters and their stories don’t matter. Stop with major disasters that go nowhere. We get it you have lots of money now. But I’d rather stay for the home cooked meal than sit uncomfortably in that five star restaurant and still be hungry after.
